Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God

eapon blindly, he might as well accept this quest.

“We are merely people who had escaped the imperial capital.
Our companions are still trapped in the capital.
This is a map of the imperial capital.
Hopefully, it will be of some help to you,” Carrian Walker said.
He then took out a map of the imperial capital and passed it to Shi Feng.

System: Epic Quest “Empire’s Past” accepted.

Quest content: Save the people inside the imperial capital within ten days.
If the quest is not completed within the allotted time, you will be inflicted with the Petrification Curse.
Rewards unknown.

An Epic Quest with a time limit of ten days? Shi Feng was immediately stunned upon hearing the system notification.
He had never imagined that the quest would be so difficult.

However, after giving it some thought, he found it reasonable.

The weapon he sought was no trivial item.
How could the game offer it up so easily?

After Shi Feng accepted the map, he summoned another Tier 3 Demon.
With two Tier 3 Demons leading the way, it would be much easier to deal with the Quartz Worms.

Now that Shi Feng had a map, his progression into the Dragon’s Maw’s maze of the underground tunnels became a lot easier.

After Shi Feng reached the Dragon’s Maw’s second underground layer, many Demonic Beasts appeared in the dark tunnels.
With a single glance, Shi Feng counted over 500.
The monsters squeezed tightly together as they blocked Shi Feng’s path.

[Giant Petrified Rat] (Demonic Beast, Elite Rank)

Level 60

HP 300,000/300,000

Without hesitation, Shi Feng directed the two Tier 3 Demons to clear out these Rats.

When the Giant Rats saw the two Tier 3 Demons, they released ear-piercing screeches one pounced on the Tier 3 Demons.
They showed no fear of the two Tier 3 Demons.

Normally, even monsters would fear a powerful enemy, yet these Giant Rats were unafraid.

Shi Feng used one Tier 3 Demon to attract these Giant Petrified Rats’ attention while the other Demon cast a Tier 3 Spell.

The Petrified Rats had very high Attack Power.
Even against a Tier 3 Demon,  their bites dealt over -1,000 damage.
If these Elites faced an MT player of the same Tier, they could easily devour half of said player’s HP.

Meanwhile, these Giant Petrified Rats attacked in groups of a dozen or so.
They would instantly devour players of the same level.
Only a Tier 3 Demon with 9,000,000 HP could withstand their assault for long.

“This is…”

Shi Feng suddenly noticed that the Tier 3 Demon that held off the Rats began to show signs of petrification.
A portion of its body had already begun to turn a dull gray.

Could this be why even Tier 4 players have fallen here? Shi Feng did not believe that these Giant Rats were capable of defeating a Tier 4 player with only their powerful bites.
However, it was a different story if they could petrify their targets.

Looking at the Tier 3 Demon’s statistics, although it had lost less than 1% of its HP, an additional Petrification Value had appeared.
Currently, the Demon displayed a Petrification Value of 0.84%, and with each bite from the Giant Rats, that value increased slightly.

Needless to say, once this Petrification Value reached 100%, even if the Tier 3 Demon still had 100% of its HP remaining, it would turn into stone.

So this is how they work.
Shi Feng could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he had only used his summoned Demons to attack.
If he had faced these monsters himself, the consequences would have been dire.

The Tier 3 Demons he summoned could last five hours.
With the increment rate of the Petrification Value, although they would not last a full five hours against these monsters, they should have no problems fighting for three or four hours.
Fortunately, he could summon a new Demon once every three hours.
In other words, he could rely on his summoned Demons to fight for him, having no need to worry about being petrified or any hindrance to his progress.
