Trembling At A High Altitude

Chapter 197: Murderous Aura (3rd Update, Monthly Ticket Request)



They likely possessed special armor, and Li Teng, unable to find a way to crack their armor, could only flee for his life.

Just as Li Teng was about to successfully elude his pursuer using his skilled parkour, a man in white appeared, blocking his path.

It was a familiar face.

Not exceedingly familiar, just one of the eight actors who had come in with Li Teng.

Li Teng was about to circumvent the man when he realized the man in white was not headed for him.

Instead, he went straight for the three men behind him.

Then he tangled with the three men.

Li Teng glanced at his wristwatch and hesitated for a moment before not fleeing further, instead moving closer to allow the wristwatch to devise and crack the algorithm from a shorter distance, otherwise, he had no chance of surviving in this ghastly world.

The man in white fought the three men with ease, and Li Teng could tell he was intentionally holding back his strength.

The man in white could easily breach the three men's defenses, whereas their fists hardly touched him, and soon, the three men were bruised and swollen from the beating.

By moving closer, the Death God APP eventually managed to successfully crack the defenses of the three men.

"Encryption algorithm type identified."

"Decryption successful!"

"Life Resource Points gained: 16 points."

At the same time, one of the men clutched his head and screamed.

Li Teng, taking advantage of the peak time not yet passing, rushed forward and landed a heavy punch.

Unfortunately, it still didn't breach the defense.

No choice, Li Teng quickly retreated.

The man in white gave Li Teng's swollen face a sympathetic glance, then continued the fight with the three men.

"Decryption successful!"

"Life Resource Points gained: 13 points."

"..."

"Decryption successful!"

"Life Resource Points gained: 17 points."

Alerts kept appearing on Li Teng's wristwatch.

"I've struck it rich, this place is really good, abundant with life resources!" Li Teng felt he had come to the right place.

Of course, having the man in white holding the front line gave him the chance to pick up points, otherwise, he would only have the option to flee.

The man in white landed another punch, shattering one of the men's heads.

"Decryption successful!"

"Life Resource Points gained: 62 points."

"Basic Passive Skill acquired: Ghost Armor LV1."

This time when Li Teng looked at his wristwatch, there was an unexpected gain.

As the man was knocked out by the man in white, Li Teng not only harvested 62 points of life resources instantly through the Death God APP but also gained an additional basic skill usable in similar script worlds!

No wonder Li Teng couldn't breach the defense of these three men, it must be this basic passive skill at work.

Since it was a passive skill, and Li Teng had also acquired it, didn't that mean he could now use Ghost Armor for defense as well?

But how could he breach the Ghost Armor?

The man in white might have been tired from playing, as he landed another punch, smashing another man's head.

"Decryption successful!"

"Life Resource Points gained: 74 points."

"Basic Active Skill acquired: Ghost Fist LV1."

Li Teng was delighted. It seemed that the key to breaking through Ghost Armor lay in the Ghost Fist.

His ordinary fists could definitely not penetrate Ghost Armor; only Ghost Fist could break through it.

With another punch, the man in white shattered the third man's skull.

"Decryption successful!"

"Life Resource Points gained: 59 points."

This time, no new skills were gained.

It seemed that these three men could only provide the most basic Ghost Armor and Ghost Fist.

"First time entering this type of script?" The man in white took out a wet wipe and cleaned his hands. Seeing that Li Teng was standing nearby and hadn't left, he initiated a conversation with Li Teng.

"Yes." Li Teng glanced at his watch, which was still in the protection period.

"Don't worry, the protection period lasts at least a day," the man in white seemed to know what Li Teng was worried about.

"Thank you for your help," Li Teng politely said.

Although he could have escaped on his own at that time, the man in white had indeed brought him many benefits.

"Just passing by and felt like stretching my muscles a bit. It had nothing to do with you," the man in white smiled.

"May I ask your surname?" Li Teng tentatively asked.

"Li Bai." The man in white continued to smile.

Upon hearing this name, it sounded made up.

"You've done me a favor, and I will repay this kindness in the future. Of course, if next time we meet you betray or kill me, then I won't consider this favor," Li Teng was a man of principles.

"Hahaha, interesting. How may I address you?"

"Li Teng, the same 'Li' as yours, and 'Teng' as in bristling with killing intent," Li Teng also introduced himself.

"Good name, full of killing intent," Li Bai laughed again.

"Why didn't my attack penetrate their defense?" Li Teng tried to seek advice from Li Bai.

It didn't matter if the other party didn't answer. If he was willing to answer, Li Teng would listen and see if it was a problem with Ghost Armor and Ghost Fist.

"I heard you're just a Bit-part Level actor?" Li Bai didn't answer Li Teng's question.

"Yes." Li Teng knew he couldn't hide this fact; Liu Shiyuan had informed him of the actors' levels before he came.

"You should do more groundwork in simpler scripts of the same type before coming here. You haven't even been to primary school, yet you read high school textbooks. How should a high school teacher teach you?" Li Bai answered Li Teng in a different way.

"Sorry." Li Teng gave a sheepish smile. He had no choice; being seventy-eight years old, he didn't have much time to start from primary school. Without skipping grades, he wouldn't even survive till graduation.

"They have Ghost Armor on them. You must learn some attack skills to penetrate their defense. The problem is, there's nowhere in this scripted world to learn basic skills. You should spend some time in simpler scripts where you can learn basic skills before coming here."

"Of course, you have a mental system attack. Although it's weak, it's still a mental system attack. That's your reliance, right? Good luck." After saying this, Li Bai turned and disappeared into the distance with a few leaps.

Li Teng felt a bit feverish on his face.

Those leaps Li Bai performed, each covering at least a dozen meters, were obviously some kind of displacement skill.

His coming here had indeed been a bit rash.

An actor like Li Bai obviously had reached a certain level of mastery in various skills, including attack skills, defense skills, and displacement skills, before coming here.

Meanwhile, Li Teng had only the Death God APP.

The Death God APP, which Li Bai mistook for a mental system attack.

Speaking of the Death God APP, Li Teng took another look at his watch.

Life Resource Points balance: 1113 points.

Accumulated Life Force Value exchange: 370 seconds.

Basic Active Skill (Script-specific): Ghost Fist LV1 (Upgrade Progress 0+/1000).

Basic Passive Skill (Script-specific): Ghost Armor LV1 (Upgrade Progress 0+/1000).

Two new skills appeared, and it seemed that skill experience could be exchanged with Life Resource Points?
