Chapter Ninety-Eight: Slaying the Forest Treant and Gaining a Vast Amount of Experience

All of this told him that the Silent Forest was a brutally hostile place.

Not far ahead, a vast stretch of woodland blocked his view.

Yang Feng realized that he was standing in a valley hemmed in by the surrounding trees.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned a great number of raven warriors.

A full one hundred and thirty raven warriors swiftly took to the air and spread out in all directions.

Soon after, a map of the Silent Forest took shape in his mind.

Yang Feng climbed a hill and beheld an endless sea of trees, with not the slightest sense of direction to be found.

The sun hung motionless overhead, offering him no way to orient himself.

This was a game world, not the real world.

So the sun above could not move and could not point the way.

For the moment, Yang Feng had no idea which way was east, west, north, or south.

"Judging from the fifteen-hour clear record, this instance is going to be enormous."

Suddenly, one of the raven warriors sent out an alert.

"Enemy encountered!"

Deep in the forest, a branch shot out and wrapped itself around a raven warrior.

But the raven warrior’s battle strength exceeded ten thousand, and it simply tore the branch apart with its claws.

Then, a giant tree sprang skyward.

This tree stood dozens of meters tall and was covered all over with countless branches.

Those branches lashed wildly at the raven warrior.

The raven warrior kept slashing with its claws.

In the blink of an eye, the tree had been stripped down to a bare trunk.

Yang Feng hurried over and immediately hurled a probing water sphere.

Forest Treant [Elite Beast]

Level: 24

Battle Power: 4000

Speed: 2000

Mental Power: 3000

Vitality: 5000

Defense: 4000

Skill: Entanglement

The forest treant’s attributes were already very close to those of the raven warriors from before.

Its stats were even stronger than those of the Shark King from the Ocean Heart instance.

"As expected of a large-scale instance like the Silent Forest!"

"Just a small monster already has attributes comparable to the big boss in the Ocean Heart instance!"

"If the raven warriors hadn’t already leveled up, dealing with this forest treant would probably take some time."

If they had still been bronze-rank raven warriors from before, handling a forest treant would naturally not have been a problem, but it would have taken time.

Just like the fight with the previous boss, it would have required a while of sustained attacks, nothing like the ease he enjoyed now.

After seeing the opponent’s attributes clearly, Yang Feng gained a true sense of what the monsters in a massive instance like the Silent Forest were like.

Defeating a level 24 forest treant granted 200,000 experience points.

And he received five leaves as a reward.

This forest treant was not only a head-level monster in terms of attributes, but also in terms of experience yield.

Killing one forest treant actually granted two hundred thousand experience points; that was no small amount.

At that moment, the raven warriors began encountering enemies one after another, all of them forest treants.

This stretch of forest seemed to be the forest treants’ domain.

There were many of them, scattered everywhere.

Ordinarily, these forest treants hid among the woods and looked no different from ordinary trees.

But the moment someone passed by, they would launch an attack at once.

Skill: Light Armor!

Yang Feng bellowed and instantly clad himself in Light Armor.

A suit of armor formed from radiance appeared upon him, his entire body glowing with a white sheen.

He continued sending the raven warriors out to scout in all directions.

For black iron-rank raven warriors, the range Yang Feng could control was only six hundred meters.

For bronze-rank raven warriors, that range had reached eight hundred meters.

Now, with silver-rank raven warriors, Yang Feng could control them over a range of fifteen hundred meters.

He advanced along the routes the raven warriors had flown, and more and more territory was revealed.

The map in Yang Feng’s mind became increasingly complete.

Soon, an hour had passed.

The area Yang Feng had explored grew larger and larger, and everywhere he looked there were trees, nothing else.

Apart from the forest, there were only forest treants; no other monsters had been encountered.

After nearly two hours had passed, something different suddenly appeared in Yang Feng’s mind.

"A pool!"

He discovered the pool and hurried over.

Standing atop a hill, he could see the water there.

Without hesitation, Yang Feng recalled the raven warriors from the other directions.

In an instant, a large flock of raven warriors appeared before him and then charged toward the pool.

If a pool suddenly appeared in the forest, there was bound to be a dangerous monster within.

Just as the raven warriors reached the edge of the water, there was suddenly a great splash.

The pool erupted with a surge of spray, and then a swarm of crocodiles crawled out of it.

Yang Feng remained perfectly calm, because he was still standing on the hill and had not gone down.

Without the slightest hesitation, he threw out a probing water sphere.

Monster Name: Forest Crocodile

Level: 26

Battle Power: 5000

Speed: 4000

Mental Power: 3000

Vitality: 5000

Defense: 6000

Skill: Death Roll

Each crocodile stood two to three meters tall, and counting the tail, was fully five to six meters long.

They all had rows of sharp teeth, looking utterly fearsome.

Those sharp teeth gleamed white in the sunlight.

More than a hundred forest crocodiles rushed toward the raven warriors.

The raven warriors showed no fear at all, their sharp claws already flashing.

If another team had approached the pool, they would have done so with utmost caution.

But Yang Feng was nothing like that; he was direct and brutally efficient.

Dozens of raven warriors activated their skills at the same time.

Skill: Feather Arrow!

Countless feather arrows rained down upon one forest crocodile.

The crocodile let out a miserable scream, and in the next instant it was slain outright.

Defeating a level 26 forest crocodile granted 200,000 experience points.

Four sharp teeth were obtained.

A few minutes later, the other forest pythons had already surrounded them.

Yang Feng raised his hand, and a massive fireball appeared in his palm.

Skill: Fireball!

Boom!

A deafening blast blasted a huge crater into the ground.

The forest crocodiles were blown flying at once, their bodies tumbling through the air.

One fireball after another was hurled out, and explosions rang continuously, leaving crater after crater in the earth.

The soil churned and rolled, burying the forest crocodiles that had been blasted to death.

At the same time, Yang Feng reaped massive amounts of experience, and countless materials flowed into his storage bag.

The experience from each forest crocodile was equivalent to that of more than a thousand ordinary venomous snakes in the Venom Snake Cave.

Killing only this wave of forest crocodiles caused Yang Feng’s experience to rise by ten percent.

"So satisfying! This is really too satisfying!"
