Monsters Are Coming-Chapter 987 - 272: I Have a Cheat: Mysterious Store (2)

However, focusing on the Critical Strike Soul is far less powerful than focusing on a Life Soul that can include attribute enhancement.

This doesn't mean the Critical Strike Soul is weaker; with the same Level 1 bonus, the benefits of the Critical Strike Attribute are far higher than a Level 1 Power Barbarian Axe.

As a secondary soul, the strength of the Critical Strike Attribute is considered by forum Strategy Guide Players to be at the version's T0 Level, making it one of the strongest secondary souls in the current version.

Any output-type faction can achieve a qualitative leap with a critical strike bonus.

After reviewing the forum players' evaluations of the latest Soul containment, Qi Sheng's gaze shifted to the Earthquake Continent region.

This continent on the player map is almost completely shrouded in mist.

Among the explored areas by players, two regions require magnification to be seen clearly.

The first place is the newly opened map scene "Land of Chasing the Sun," where millions of newbies are hunting and growing in the scene.

Two Domain Node areas have already been discovered, with several newly established newbie guilds trying to use human-wave tactics + resurrection tactics to capture them.

The other place on the map needs to be enlarged to the extreme to be seen clearly, and the map displays the name: Sea of Illusion Flowers.

Qi Sheng's gaze focused at this moment.

From a high altitude, on the boundless plain, millions of alien-colored flowers bloom wildly, forming a sea of flowers.

Blood Flame Orchids, crimson as flames, roll in the wind, while the gold-orange Radiant Sunflowers link into patches, and the silver-white Illusion Gauze Vines wrap around the whole plain like a thin mist... Groups of Spirit Butterflies fly over the sea of flowers, with the fluorescents from their wings tracing ephemeral paths in the air.

Further away, several gigantic Colorful Crown Trees rise abruptly, with their translucent branches refracting the sky's light.

As the wind passes, the entire sea of flowers rises in waves, with flowers of various hues colliding and making a "whooshing" sound like the swell of the tide.

At this time, in one corner of the flower sea plain.

On a cleared open space, warriors of the Spirit Breath Clan were busy with city construction.

The dwellings built in the new clan land were not traditional wood and stone structures but instead made up of living tissues.

A gray-white biological substrate grows along the pre-designed framework, forming a translucent cocoon-like dome, while the tops of several larger buildings extend slender tendril-like structures, gently swaying with the wind and collecting the energy in the air.

There were neatly arranged cultivation zones on the open space, but they didn't grow ordinary crops; instead, they grew edible biological beasts.

In the center of the clan land stood a tower-like structure, and its surface was covered with coral-like buildings, with a gigantic crystal-like body floating atop, from which swarms of fly insect-like creatures would occasionally emerge, going towards the flower sea plain to harvest plant energy, then transported to the Tower.

At this moment, in the space of the first level of the Tower, the Little Mage was working intently on calculations.

The Spirit Breath Clan had been in the Monster World for some time now.

Near the teleport coordinates provided by Guidance, there weren't any racial forces entrenched, so the initial development was incredibly smooth.

The ordinary resources of Monster World were enough to put the Spirit Breath Clan into a rapid development stage.

According to Shadow King, every breath taken in Monster World is a step in evolution.

But it's not entirely without risks.

The most distinctive feature of Monster World is the spontaneously appearing forces and all sorts of formidable and terrifying Monsters.

Several days ago, an incident occurred that caused the Little Mage to fear afterward.

He was inspecting the clan land when the sky suddenly darkened.

He thought it was one of Monster World's occasional abnormal weather changes until he looked up and saw a "Sky Veil Giant Beast" flying overhead, blocking the sky.

The terror it induced was unforgettable.

The Monster's massive body dangled down from the clouds like an inverted mountain range, although it lacked wings, it could eerily float and fly, tearing a vortex several kilometers long in the clouds.

Though distant, the pressure felt like it was hovering above.

At that time, the entire Spirit Breath Clan settlement plunged into deathly silence.

The shadow cast by the giant beast persisted for three full minutes.

Even long after it disappeared into the northern sky, rippling tracks from its passage through the clouds still lingered.

The Little Mage had no doubt that if the Sky Veil Giant Beast had breathed towards the Spirit Breath Clan settlement, the Spirit Breath Clan's development plans would have ended prematurely.

He himself would return to his wonderful homeland.

This is exactly why Monster World is the most fearsome place in Alien Race eyes; death comes unpredictably.

During the times spent struggling in Newbie Village, he couldn't feel this bone-chilling fear.

Infinite resurrection granted him infinite margin for error, and he felt more curiosity about the unknown.

But switching to an Alien Race perspective and opening a life mode, he realized how terrifying the fear of the unknown could be.

The change in mindset brought an extreme sense of disorientation.

When he was a player, facing danger felt like a child listening to ghost stories, knowing the following second they could snuggle into their parents' embrace, and even screeches were tinged with excitement.

Or listening to the rumbling in a stormy night knows he was safe inside the house.

Or playing horror-themed games... Behind this kind of fear was absolute safety as a baseline.

But looking at Monster World from the perspective of Alien Race, the perception shifted entirely.

Alien Race's view of Monster World lacks a safety net; each shadow conceals unknown terrors that could end one's life.

Every step in development feels like walking a tightrope at dizzying heights, where every decision demands putting the future of the tribe on the line.
