37 True meaning of despair

Above the white clouds.

In a yellow dress, marking her extremely charming body, a veiled woman watched the scene that took place several meters below ground.

The dress, although it pressed her body, did not give the sensation of a woman who longs to seduce men. On the contrary, it made her look like a goddess of heaven. Instead of awakening lust, what would awaken in men would be feelings of love, even without seeing her face.

Seeing Xie Feng sitting down, even when his body clearly refused to move, the woman waved her hand.

Next to the woman were two living beings. One was a small bull the size of a puppy and the other was a little girl who was less than 20 centimeters tall.

The girl looked at the scene below with concern. "Master...it's okay to do this?.. he's already done it even better than anyone else would have done it...what if something happens to his health?", she asked with obvious concern in her tone of voice.

The woman dressed in yellow responded softly: "He will be fine. On the contrary, if he is disconnected in this way it will be worse."

The little girl simply said, "Oh", and asked no more questions. She believes that no one in the world can know him better than her master.

The woman dressed in yellow didn't talk anymore either and just looked down. Because she was covered with a veil, the expression on her face was unknown

[Ding!... Forced Disconnection deactivated.]

When Xie Feng heard the system announcement, indicating that the forced disconnection was canceled, he felt many complicated emotions.

Joy, relief, confusion, etc.

"Why did the system suddenly stop the disconnection?". Xie Feng asked himself.

Everyone knows that the necklace, i.e. Samsara Online's gaming device, has an extremely high-security system. If the player's health is in danger for any reason, the system will forcibly disconnect that person and leave a record of the time this event happened.

That way, the developers of the game can avoid legal problems in case something happens.

Although surprised and confused, Xie Feng was delighted with this result.

"Fortunately, I had already prepared myself for this", sighed a relieved Xie Feng. Relieved that I had warned Xie Yao that he would probably have to spend a lot of time online due to the advancing job trial.

From the time Xie Feng entered the Shrine of the Fallen Angel until now, it had been approximately 14 hours! This is because, after the 3rd level of the second stage, Xie Feng had no choice but to take a break and enter the next level with all his energy replenished.

***

The reason Xie Feng was angry before is that he is not a normal human being. A normal person would certainly be in danger of collapsing after spending 15 hours pushing his own limits.

However, Xie Feng is different. Precisely because he is different, after 40 minutes of rest he is back on his feet again.

After standing up, he looked at the door at the end of the hall.

This door was different from the others. Unlike the others, it was red like blood and had three numbers written on the top:

666

Seeing those numbers, Xie Feng involuntarily remembered the name of the village that the system sent him to, apparently at random:

Novice Village 666.

Even without anyone saying anything, even without announcements from the system, Xie Feng felt that this third stage would be the last.

The last trial that will decide victory or defeat.

With a razor-sharp look, Xie Feng advanced without hesitation in his steps.

__________

The door opened and closed. But unlike the previous cases, everything happened quietly and without any loud knocking.

Xie Feng tightened the grip of his left hand on the handle of the sword and walked slowly as he looked around.

Or so he tried to do.

The whole room was extremely dark. Xie Feng could not see anything beyond two meters. As he advanced with extreme caution and without letting down his guard even after more than a minute without being attacked, Xie Feng realized that he had reached the center of the room.

It was then that a change occurred.

From the sides of the walls, from the door that Xie Feng passed through a minute ago, to the back of the room, torches slowly began to be lit. The fire from the torches was blue. The orange fire represents the weakest flame while the blue fire represents the hottest fire in the world.

Ignoring the torches, Xie Feng narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at the end of the room.

There was a throne there. Standing by the throne was a single monster.

The monster was a bull, but unlike what Xie Feng expected, this bull was about six feet tall, which means that the height of this monster and his were similar.

The bull's body was dark red, its muscles were pronounced but not exaggerated. In the bull's right hand there was a simple looking sword, the only thing that stood out was that one could see faint flashes of fire coming from the blade of the weapon from time to time.

Xie Feng immediately removed the scroll he obtained from Xiao Lei from his inventory. He didn't bother to waste any time using inspection on this seemingly simple looking monster.

Because he knows that, although apparently weaker than the monsters he has faced so far, the beast in front of him was so strong that all the hairs on his body stood up like a wild animal indicating danger.

The bull did not move either and let him do whatever Xie Feng wanted.

Xie Feng tore the scroll and a white light shone in the room for a second before it disappeared. Soon, the information about the bull appeared in front of Xie Feng.

[Guardian of Hell: BOSS]

[Level 25]

[Grade: KING]

[HP: 80000]

[Note: The last guardian and loyal servant of Lucifer. The number of people who defied it was in the thousands, and thousands of people died at its hands.]

(Skills):

[Lucifer's Blessing (Passive): Increases the speed of movement by 60 points.]

[Magic Resistance (Passive): Within the Shrine of the Fallen Angel, it has immunity to all magic attacks.]

[Earth Armor (Passive): Within the Shrine of the Fallen Angel, all physical attacks below 500 will be ignored.

[Whirlwind: Turns its sword at a terrifying speed. Causes 1000 points of physical damage to all targets within 2 meters. After use falls into dizzy condition for 3 seconds. Use rate: Normal.]

Xie Feng's pupils contracted to the size of a needle when he saw the status window of the Guardian of Hell. A dazed look appeared on his face.

A KING grade BOSS beast is something that Xie Feng expected to face, but he did not expect such dreadful skills.

The passive skills of magical resistance and earth armor practically cut Xie Feng's path.

He realized that this trial was called despair, not because it is impossible for a player or a team of 10 players can't get through even the first stage.

The meaning of despair in this trial was the monster in front of him.

A monster that cannot be defeated.

Although Xie Feng was stunned for only a second, the Guardian of Hell decided to attack at that moment.

Because Xie Feng's mind was in chaos he could not see the monster's attack and, although he raised his sword to block, it was too late.

The sword of the Guardian of Hell struck his body without any impediment.

-526!

After being hit once, Xie Feng came out of his daze, and when he saw his remaining HP, a drop of cold sweat ran down his forehead.

4 HP points!

Xie Feng's body was not sent flying and he only took three steps backward so the Guardian of Hell caught up with him in a second and wielded its sword again.

However, although desperate about the situation, Xie Feng is not the type of person who gets hit without hitting back.

*Clang*

That was the sound caused by the sword of the Guardian of Hell and Xie Feng crashing into each other. Just before the sword could hit him, Xie Feng raised his left hand and placed his sword in a horizontal position, stopping the monster's attack.

Immediately after blocking, Xie Feng moved his wrist and removed the sword from the Guardian of Hell with skill, then cut down.

-1!

Seeing that figure, Xie Feng's eyes opened wide and shone.

Not out of disbelief, but because he, who was about to fall into utter despair, finally saw a ray of hope.

Upon realizing this, the corner of Xie Feng's lips rose slightly. 'Nothing is lost yet!'. he thought to himself.
