Chapter 4: The Last Four Hours Before the Disaster!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chongming Island Sanatorium, Room 407.

Chen Feng stood at the door with a myriad of thoughts running through his mind. He did not dare to push the door open.

On the second day after the “world’s gamification”, his sister had died in the monster tide. He had not seen her in ten years.

“Chen Yu… you won’t be in danger this time.”

Chen Feng said softly as he pushed open the door and entered the room.

Inside the clean and tidy room, Chen Yu was sound asleep. Her eyes were closed, and her fair face reminded Chen Yu of Sleeping Beauty from a fairy tale.

“Is she still not awake?”

Chen Feng sighed.

His sister had been suffering from a serious illness since she was young. Since the age of five, Chen Yu had fainted from time to time, and her condition worsened as she grew older.

Chen Feng brought his sister to all the renowned doctors in the world, but there was still no cure.

When she was seventeen or eighteen, Chen Yu fell into a coma that lasted for months and even up to half a year.

It was extremely difficult for the siblings to meet.

Chen Feng knew that his sister liked flowers, so he specially picked a sunflower on the way here and placed it in the vase beside Chen Yu’s bed.

Chen Feng believed that although his sister could not see it, she could definitely feel it in her heart.

“Open the backpack.”

Following Chen Feng’s will, a backpack interface appeared in front of him. There were various items that he had collected from the treasure chests inside it.

Apart from ores, materials, potions, and other miscellaneous items, he had a few more important items, namely a staff, a robe, and some skill books.

[Winter Green Wood Staff]

Quality: Green

Introduction: A high-quality staff made from Winter Green Wood. It’s a good choice for new mages.

[Exquisite Robe]

Quality: White

Introduction: An ordinary robe. Its advantage is that it is cheap… it was only cheap.

[Meditation Spell (F)]

Introduction: A basic skill of a mage that can help them recover their mental strength.

[Holy Light Spell (D)]

Introduction: Releases holy light and inflicts a small amount of damage to the target. If the target is a dark creature, the damage will increase to 300%.

[Flash Spell (C)]

Introduction: The user can teleport to any location within a ten-meter radius.

[Summon Spell (B)]

Introduction: After a short chant, the spell will summon the user’s Contract Summoner (temporarily unavailable).

...

In the early stages of the game, these items were all quite valuable.

This was especially true for high-level skill books. B-level skill books could even be sold at a high price of one million US dollars on the market. It was extremely over-exaggerated.

For example, Chen Feng had obtained Summoning Skill Book (B) from a Platinum Grade treasure chest.

His only regret was the fact that he did not own a Contract Summoner yet, so he could not use it for the time being.

“Four more hours.”

Chen Feng glanced at the time as his smile vanished.

He had to take advantage of the last four hours and level up as soon as possible.

Normally, there were two ways to level up.

The first method was to kill monsters. This was the most direct method. Killing the monster would give you experience points, but it was relatively more dangerous.

The second method was by practicing one’s skills continuously. This was the safest method. Every time one uses a skill, they would be able to gain some experience points

Chen Feng could only choose the second option right now.

“Soul Suppressing Tower!”

Chen Feng called out softly.

A small black tower immediately appeared out of nowhere. It had a total of three floors, and it flickered with a dark light. It was exquisite and small.

Chen Feng remembered that he had read a guide about it in his previous life.

“Some living forms are born close to the Dao, and one of them are humans... In particular, towers are suitable for the storage of Dao. They were naturally born to house Dao.”

Therefore, tower-type equipment were usually not that simple.

The Soul Suppressing Tower before him was the same.

“Space Distortion!”

Just as Chen Feng finished speaking, the Soul Suppressing Tower emitted a strange light. Space twisted as he instantly disappeared from the room.

When he opened his eyes again, everything around him had turned into endless chaos.

One of the Soul Suppressing Tower’s skills, Internal Heaven and Earth, involved boundless and infinite heavenly power. There was a chaotic space in each of its layers.

He could take advantage of the time flow ratio of 10:1.

To Chen Feng, the four hours in the outside world was equivalent to a full 40 hours.

He needed to master all the Skill Books in these forty hours to have some ability to protect himself.

The first skill he needed to master was the Mediation Spell.

Meditation was the foundation of all magic.

Ordinary people used their eyes to look at the world, used their ears to listen to the world, and used their hands to touch the world…

Those were the five senses that humans usually talked about.

However, the initial stage of the Meditation Spell consisted of using one’s mental power to touch the world. This was also known as one’s “sixth sense”.

Many people had a strong sixth sense because their “Spirit” attribute was stronger than other ordinary people.

Chen Feng sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and adjusted his breathing. According to the Meditation Spell, he had to use his spiritual energy to form a feeler that extended outwards toward the outside world.

This step sounded simple, but it was actually very difficult to master.

After all, mental power was invisible and intangible.

Mobilizing spiritual power was a very difficult task in itself.

It was normal for an ordinary person to spend several days or even more than ten days learning the Meditation Spell.

A few minutes later.

With every breath Chen Feng took, there seemed to be a pattern hidden within.

After that, his consciousness left his body and drifted outwards. He could even float into the air to look at his physical body.

It felt like his soul was leaving his body.

However, Chen Feng knew that this meant that he had already grasped the key of the Meditation Spell.

After all, he was a person that had been reborn with plenty of cultivation experience. Given the Lucky Halo, it was quite easy for him to learn an F-rank Meditation Spell.

His mental energy returned to his body, and Chen Feng slowly opened his eyes.

The fatigue in his body disappeared instantly, and it felt like his body and mind were completely relaxed.

This was just how mysterious the Meditation Spell was.

Although it was an F-rank skill, it could increase one’s mental strength if one cultivated it properly.

He looked at the time. Half an hour had passed.

Chen Feng learned the Flash Spell (C) next. After using it, he could instantly teleport to any spot within a ten meters radius.

This was a godly escape skill.

It could play a huge role in many extreme situations such as when he was jumping over swamps or cliffs.

A few hours later, Chen Feng had mastered this skill.

He began to learn the Holy Light Spell (D).

This was the only damage skill that Chen Feng could currently learn: 300% damage could be inflicted upon dark-type creatures if the Holy Light Spell was used to attack one’s target.

In another few hours, Chen Feng mastered the Holy Light Spell.

Thanks to the Soul Suppressing Tower’s “Spacetime Distortion”, Chen Feng had gained precious time.

In the next thirty hours, Chen Feng continued to practice the Holy Light Spell.

This was his only damage skill, so he had to increase his proficiency as soon as possible.

In times of danger, the speed of the skill was even more important than the power of the skill.

Although you mastered powerful advanced spells.

What was the use of releasing magic for a few minutes?

These few minutes were enough for a monster to kill you several times.

By the end of the practice, Chen Feng was extremely proficient in casting spells.

He only needed three seconds to cast the Holy Light Spell.

As Chen Feng continued to use his skills, he also continued to gain a small amount of experience points. After accumulating points for around 40 hours, his experience bar was already 95% full, and he was about to level up.

“It’s time to go out.”

Chen Feng was extremely nervous. This was his first battle after his rebirth.

No matter what, he had to rewrite history!

...

At the same time.

Midnight had arrived.

A huge space-time crack appeared above the sea on the eastern side of Chongming Island. Purple-black light flickered in the crack, giving off a cold and terrifying presence.

This space-time crack seemed to connect the world to another hellish dimension. Just looking at it made one shiver.

The first wave of monsters appeared from the space-time crack.

Large numbers of level 1 rodents and level 2 serrated rats climbed up the beach and the coast to Chongming Island.

There was a surging black tide as far as the eye could see. The monsters formed a dark and oppressive wave.

In Chen Feng’s previous life.

This monster tide was known as the ‘Chongming Island Rat Tide’. It was the first time that a space-time crack monster had attacked China.

More than 800 humans died in such an unprepared state!

In the face of such a terrifying monster tide, ordinary people could only do one thing—

Run!
