Chapter 172: Chapter 133: This Is a True Genius
Compared to someone like him, she felt like a complete idiot.
Meanwhile, Lin Mo’s thirst for slaughter surged as he looked at the notification before him.
"Skill [Backstab] Lv1 (10/10) has leveled up!"
"Current Skill: [Backstab] Lv2 (9/20)"
’Newly acquired skills are so easy to level up. A couple more monsters, and it’ll reach Level 3 and I’ll earn some Attributes.’
’Looks like the grinding session will have to pause for a bit, though.’
’Because the main event has arrived!’
Lin Mo’s figure suddenly vanished. The next moment, a Short Knife plunged into the spot where he had just been standing, embedding itself deep in the ground.
A short Goblin darted out from the horde of monsters, pulled out the Short Knife, and then immediately ducked back into the crowd of its kin to hide.
’So, there really are Goblin Assassins!’
According to the other Assassins’ reports, they hadn’t encountered any Assassin Class Bronze Level Goblins in the past few days.
But today, one had appeared right on the battlefield...
’Had they gathered enough strength to launch an all-out assault? Or had yesterday’s defeat made them impatient, a desperate last resort?’
Lin Mo didn’t know the reason, nor did he care to find out.
Right now, he just wanted to turn all these Goblins into Skill Level for himself.
Entering his [Invisibility] state, Lin Mo chased after the Goblin Assassin in the direction it had fled.
Now that he was invisible, their roles were reversed: Lin Mo was in the shadows, and the Goblin Assassin was exposed.
Lin Mo quickly found his target, its face a mask of shock and unease.
It scanned its surroundings in a panic. The immense pressure, washing over it like a tide, caused it to lose its usual calm and composure.
This anxiety, in turn, further weakened its defenses and judgment.
And so—
The moment a sharp sword blade appeared before its eyes, its muddled thoughts made it act on instinct. It subconsciously spun around, trying to defend against an attack from behind.
This time, however, Lin Mo didn’t use [Backstab]. Instead, he unleashed the stronger, faster [Shadow Assault]!
"SHLIIICK—!"
With the sound of a blade sinking into flesh, the Black Sword in Lin Mo’s hand easily pierced through its chest.
The Attributes of some powerful Demons are much higher than humans of the same level—not just their Main Attributes, but their secondary attributes as well. Some Demons with incredibly strong bloodlines, like the Dragon Race, have almost no weaknesses.
But a mere Bronze Level Goblin was clearly not among them.
The disadvantages of its small frame and weak Constitution were on full display. Even though Lin Mo hadn’t hit a weak point, the blow instantly robbed it of any power to resist. All it could do was let out a muffled, wretched cry from its throat. The next moment, Lin Mo shoved the Sword sideways, effortlessly slicing it in two.
[Invisibility] Skill Level +20
[Shadow Assault] Skill Level +20
’Easy kill!’
Lin Mo sheathed his sword and casually cast his Ice Cone Skill, picking off the Goblins swarming toward him one by one.
When given the chance, he certainly wouldn’t forget to grind some Skill Level for his Magic.
[Ice Cone Skill] Skill Level +1
[Ice Cone Skill] Skill Level +1
...
And that Bronze Goblin Assassin he just killed was a double whammy, causing two Skills to level up at once!
"Skill [Shadow Assault] Lv1 (10/10) has leveled up!"
"Current Skill: [Shadow Assault] Lv2 (10/20)"
’Low Level Skills are easy to level up anyway, so that was expected. Nothing strange about it.’
The main thing was his [Invisibility], which Lin Mo had been stuck on for a while. It had finally reached Level 6.
"Skill [Invisibility] Lv5 (180/180) has leveled up!"
"Current Skill: [Invisibility] Lv6 (3/300)"
According to Lin Mo’s calculations, an Excellent Level skill only had seven levels in total. In other words, if it leveled up one more time, this skill would evolve into his first ever Epic Skill!
