Chapter 43 - Butterfly Effect, Iron Bear Ridge



Chapter 43: Butterfly Effect, Iron Bear Ridge

Right when Li Yi was about the exit from the city gates, a voice came from behind him.

“You there, adventurer, stop right there!”

Li Yi turned his head and saw that it was an officer that guarded the city — Qiaobu. It was rare to see NPCs who took the initiative to stop players. However, were that to happen, it would mean that there were important matters that needed to be solved.

Li Yi was puzzled. “May I help you?”

Qiaobu walked up to him and spoke in a serious tone.

“I have to inform you about this adventurer. You have to be prepared. During this period of time, the conflict between the Ghana Empire and the subdued Beast Empire has been escalating. Our Emporer City resides relatively close to the border, so your journey ahead might be dangerous. It would be advisable to not take this path!”

Li Yi frowned, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.

Was there going to be a country war?

How could the timeline progress so quickly?

However, on second thought, it was highly unlikely that this would occur so soon. Although the players were outsiders, the main structure of this world still slowly advanced along with the growth of the players. It was impossible for a player to start a war when they had just reached level 10.

In other words, the players would probably be worse than cannon fodder. An ordinary soldier would be able to instantly kill the current highest-level player. Even with his insane attributes, Li Yi would at most be able to fight against soldiers and mighty generals that were crippled… preferably with an intelligence of less than 1.

It seemed like something unexpected had happened, but one thing was certain. According to the timeline of his previous life, such a major historical event had not occurred this early in game.

However, that bad premonition still lingered in his mind. He had a feeling that it had something to do with him. Could it be due to the butterfly effect after his rebirth?

Li Yi immediately rebutted the officer, “But I have to go out. The High Priest wants me to go to Iron Bear Ridge and hunt the Iron Bear King so that I can carry out a transition sublimation!”

Hearing this, Qiaobu immediately turned enthusiastic. “So you’re an adventurer that’s going to join our empire? I’m glad that you’ve joined us. I hope that you will become stronger under the protection of our empire.

“However, due to the current situation, our soldiers can’t be mobilized. Otherwise, the Iron Bears wouldn’t have become so rampant. They actually dared to run out of their territory and destroy residents’ crops. Hurry up and hunt them down!”

“Okay, I will!”

With a reply, he successfully made his way out of the city. Li Yi’s agility attribute was very high at the moment. He could run for more than 12 meters per second. Were this to be the real world, he could have easily beaten the world record.

After opening the map to determine the direction, and after more than 15 minutes of traveling, he gradually reached the vicinity of the desired destination. In front of him was wide mountain range. The higher you went up, the more chilly the air became. The map indicated that this was Iron Bear Ridge.

Even before entering the mountain range, he was able to clearly hear the low roars that rumbled from within the mountain range, indicating that there were many inside.

Moreover, there were not many players at the moment. In the future, when there were more players who needed to undergo the first transition sublimation, this Iron Bear Ridge would become overcrowded. This quest would even require a few days to complete due to the low supply of bears.

Li Yi continued walking inside. Not long after, he saw a black figure pacing around under the tree. It was an Iron Bear. Its pair of red eyes could make one’s heart turn cold, and its mouth dripped with saliva.

Even if its name was Iron Bear, its body was not made of iron. However, its fur was so dense that it was as hard as steel. Under the sunlight, one could see a faint metallic luster on its fur. That was how the Iron Bear earned its name

[Level 11 Hungry Iron Bear (Elite)]

HP: 10,000

Physical Attack: 250

Physical Defense: 300

Skills: Charge, Iron Armor

This set of skills were expected of an Iron Bear. Its defense should be enough to stop many players in their tracks before attacking.

Li Yi immediately stepped forward and equipped his magic weapon. Black sword aura struck the Iron Bear in front of him.

“-34,680.”

[Talent Trigger: Obtained 100 HP, 1 HP Recovery/second]

Li Yi was much more powerful than an Iron Bear. The difference in HP caused it to be instantly killed on the spot. This critical hit was the most powerful single-target attack skill at the moment.

The Iron Bear let out a miserable howl and its huge body fell to the ground. With a thump, something seemed to have fallen to the ground, and a few silver coins also dropped.

After killing a level 11 elite monster, his experience bar had increased by a small amount. This was indeed an excellent leveling area!

Walking forward, he noticed that Iron Bear had dropped a black helmet. He immediately picked it up to check its attributes.

[Equipment: Iron Bear Helmet]

[Rarity: Excellent]

[Physical Defense: 19]

[Attributes: Strength +11, Spirit +13]

[Equipment condition: Level 10]

“Hmph! Not bad. The drop rate of killing such an elite monster is indeed much higher.”

Li Yi nodded and immediately changed out of his level 5 helmet, then, equipping the helmet that he had just obtained.

After doing so, he continued to walk deeper into Iron Bear Ridge. In the dark forest, the roars of Iron Bears clashed with one another. So much so that it could make people shudder in fear. The roars echoed throughout the woods and it felt as if they were being surrounded by countless Iron Bears.

Any monster that was above level 10, as long as a player entered its range, would immediately start its attack.

Not far away, under a tree, there were many Iron Bears with pitch-black fur. Their eyes revealed a fierce glint as they scouted at their surroundings.

Li Yi had only taken several steps forward when five to six Iron Bears immediately looked over. They then let out a loud roar, causing the leaves in the surrounding trees to continuously fall as they charged over.

Li Yi’s focused his gaze towards the bears. He placed the magic weapon on his chest and swept forward. Dark sword aura instantly slashed towards the Iron Bears once again.

“Horizontal Sword Slash!”

“-677.”

“-687.”

“-1348! Critical Hit!”

The powerful attack caused several Iron Bears to retreat. The magic weapons aura had an invisible suppressive force and it caused additional damage to these creatures.

It was a good thing that Li Yi was currently out of the city and could equip his magic weapon. Otherwise, the NPCs would have definitely treated him as an evil person and would have chased him out. Even the High Priest would probably not allow him to undergo the first transition sublimation.

Unless his strength increased in the future and his status in the Ghana Empire also became higher, there would not be any problems.

The retreating Iron Bear had just stabilized its body and was about to pounce over to bite him. Black aura once again surged around his body and instantly spread out in all directions.

“Raging Blood Roar.”

“-5,430.”

“-10,430! Critical Hit!”

“-10,777! Critical Hit!”

Before the Iron Bears could touch him, they let out a mournful howl and fell to the ground. Only one Iron Bear recovered from its dizziness and charged at him ferociously/

“-79.”

The Iron Bear’s weak attack only knocked away a little of Li Yi’s HP.

Li Yi brandished his magic weapon — Deaths Descent — once more and sent the Iron Bear away with a few slashes.
