Feng Li looked at his status screen in satisfaction the skill although its mana cost was high it was pretty worth it as it was only a one time mana consumption and the orb could last for an hour. Feng Li's mana was at 50 an outrageous amount for someone who only had 1 intelligence, 1 point of intelligence would give 5 points of mana this was thanks to the trait that Feng Li had obtained not only that his mana regeneration was off the charts 10 points of mana per minute it would take him 5 minutes to replenish his mana.

Feng Li looked at his unused stat points and decided to add 2 points to intelligence and a point each into vitality and endurance, he wanted to balance out his stats as much as he could. His stats became

Feng Li looked around and saw a portal, he walked in it taking him out of the tower. Upon exiting the tower he saw the bustling scene once again and was glad that he made it out alive and most importantly he would be able to climb the tower from now on completely changing his life. He went back to his tiny apartment to recharge himself and prepare his next entrance to the tower. Looking at his shabby apartment Feng Li swore to himself that he would buy a bigger one as soon as he gets money.

Days passed by and soon it was time for Feng Li to enter the tower once more, as the light engulfed Feng Li once again he could not help but be excited on the creatures that he would be facing next.

"Whoosh" Feng Li was teleported in the middle of a forest, he scanned his surroundings but did not find any goblins. He decided to venture further in the forest where he spotted a group of three goblins "scan"

Feng Li was shocked not because they were to strong on the contrary the Goblins were weaker than the wolfs that he had faced before. "There has to be something wrong, there is no way the the first floor is easier than the initializing floor." Feng Li rubbed his chin as he pondered, suddenly he saw the group of goblins moving deeper into the forest and he decided to follow along. Following the goblins he soon came across a fort, he saw the goblins entering through the gate after the verification of a red goblin. That goblin looks like a normal goblin except for red lines running through its body.

"Scan".

Feng Li's face convulsed he's hopes of quickly clearing this floor was gone, the elite goblin had stats that rivals his own and he knew that they were not the final boss. The final boss should be the owner of the fort.

Feng Li spent a few hours studying the patterns of the goblin, it was impossible for him to slaughter his way into the castle so he could only slowly take them out. He discovered that majority of the goblins were normal goblins and they would form squads of three to go out hunting every morning and would only come back at night with their preys. The remaining were elite goblins which were in charge of protecting the fort. Feng Li came up with a plan, the next morning he would try to hunt all the goblins, after that he would stealthily wipe out the elite goblins and then beat up the boss and clear the floor. He set up a campsite in the forests to ensure that he remains hidden but not losing site of the fortress gate.

The next morning Feng Li woke up to see the sun high up in the sky, he glanced at the gate and saw many goblin teams already setting out. Without further ado he went into the forest hoping to meet some goblins. As he was sprinting through the forest he suddenly heard sounds of fighting, feeling excited he went closer to the sound and sure enough a squad of goblins were fighting with a wolf. "Haha what a perfect time to test out my skill, Gravity Orbs" an orb was conjured in Feng Li's palm and with his command it floated above the goblins and the wolf and the next instant all four of them were pressed to the ground "sprint" without wasting time Feng Li activated sprint and rushed towards them finishing them of.

<3/50 goblins>

The location that the goblins once were was caved in Feng Li nodded in satisfaction as he saw with his own eyes how powerful the skill was not only could it increase the gravity of the enemy but it could also reduce the gravity of him, making him even faster. Not wanting to waste time as the orb would disappear in one hour Feng Li rushed further in the forest.

Time passed and in a blink of an eye the sun was setting it was a beautiful scene but Feng Li did not have time to enjoy. "Sprint" A dagger flashed and the heads of 3 goblins could be seen flying up in the air, Feng Li panted as he looked at his quest progression

<39/50 Goblins killed>

Feng Li had been running around the whole day and manage to kill of 13 squads he was sure that he did not miss out any so it means that there were 10 elite goblins left in the fort. Rushing back to the fort, he had to make sure that he kills the elite guards before night where the goblins should return. As the entrance of the fort came into view Feng Lin saw 2 elite guards guarding it.

"Gravity orb×2"

With Feng Li's mana he was able to summon 2 gravity orbs with the pressure of 2 orbs the elite guards were unable to move and was finished of quickly but before they died one of them howled out loud alerting the rest of the guards. Feng Li got a headache looking at the 8 more elite goblins equipped with swords or spears charging towards his direction. "Sprint" he activated the skill as he rushed in, due to the effects of the gravity orbs the actions of the 8 elite guards became sluggish allowing Feng Li to finish them off as he whizzed in and out dodging their spears and swords finishing them off with his superior speed.

"How dare you!"

A voice came out from a room in the fortress and with a bang the window of the room was blasted no the wall of the room was smashed apart as a muscle figure came out. It had bulging green muscles making him look a bit like the hulk. Feng Li could feel the pressure emitting from the muscular green creature and knew it was going to be a tough fight.

"Its over" Feng Li was depressed although the stats of the Goblin Warrior King was high he still had confidence to beat it due to its slow speed and intelligence making it unable to plot anything and fight him head on. The depressing part was his skills the Goblin Warrior King had an aoe skill and a skill which could boost his strength by 5 making it reach a whooping 10, if hit by that fist Feng Li did not doubt that he would be smashed into oblivion.

Feng Li summoned two gravity orbs right away and also used sprint, he was not taking any chances "Boom" the Goblin Warrior King leaped up from the ground heading to Feng Li, the gravity orbs had little effect on the Goblin Warrior King due to its physique. Feng Li with his skill sprint and the speed buff of the gravity orbs dodged the blow but as the Goblin Warrior King landed one the ground the entire ground was caved in and debris flew all over the place, the shockwave still sent Feng Li flying crashing into a building. As he recovered he saw a tiger phantom heading his way, cursing he ran as fast as he could barely dodging it, the building behind Feng Li was completely destroyed by the phantom. Feng Li shuddered at the thought of it hitting him, he knew now that the Goblin Warrior King skills were all on cooldown and was the perfect time to attack, "bang" the ground beneath him broke as the shot out, using his superior speed he was able to dodge the attacks of the Goblin Warrior King but every one of its punches emit pressure and vibrations which creates wind pressure that impacts Feng Li's body and mind. Feng Li's body was getting heavier and heavier as he fought against the Goblin Warrior King "Bang" a moment of distraction caused Feng Li to get hit by a punch causing to fly out.
