Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 180: Steve Chapter 179

"Haha, Twilight Forest, here I come."

Facing the purple portal in front of him, Fang Mo laughed heartily and took a bold leap.

Accompanied by the familiar purple particle effects, Fang Mo's vision plunged into a brief darkness. When his sight was restored, he and Steve were already in a completely different world.

The sky seemed to be frozen by some terrifying magic.

It was as if the stars were caught in a bizarre chaos; both the stars and time seemed to halt simultaneously, causing the entire world to enter a perpetually silent dusk.

Fang Mo looked around.

He realized he was in the midst of a vast forest.

Unlike the shorter oak forests of the main world, the trees here were exceptionally tall and upright.

They were a species called the Sky Tree. The black trunks had numerous white and gray patterns. The trunk alone stood more than ten blocks high, branching out to form the canopy that covered a vast area.

The starry sky cast a faint twilight, shining through the gaps in the trees onto the ground.

Occasionally, fireflies could be seen in the forest, dancing among the branches, emitting a faint light, adding a dreamy touch to the environment.

"What a familiar environment..."

Fang Mo gazed silently at the surroundings, a nostalgic look in his eyes.

He really loved the Twilight Forest mod. Every time he entered the Twilight Forest, it felt like coming home. Every boss here was a genius with a pleasant voice. He loved staying here.

Fang Mo had never imagined

that one day he could actually set foot in this space-time.

Every plant, every landscape, and even every creature here was incredibly familiar to him.

"Wow, this deer looks so cute."

Fang Mo couldn't help but touch a deer beside him, "The design of this model, those eyes, it's just like a comedian... so adorable."

After saying this, Steve immediately drew a large sword and with a swift motion turned the deer into several chunks of deer meat.

After getting some deer meat,

Fang Mo quickly got Steve to work.

The terrain of the Twilight Forest was complex. Simply using a mini-map mod made exploration challenging, so experienced Twilight adventurers usually crafted a magic map using materials found here.

Although Fang Mo couldn't remember the crafting recipes of industrial mods, he could craft from the Twilight Forest with his eyes closed.

Fang Mo, controlling Steve, shot down a crow and plucked a feather from it. He then gathered a few torchberries from a nearby cave and finally took out some glowstone dust. On the crafting table, he combined the three items to form the core of the magic map.

He then surrounded the core with eight pieces of paper, quickly crafting a magic map.

"Let me see..."

Using Steve's vision, Fang Mo quickly discerned their current location.

"Hmm, on the left is the Hedge Maze, on the right is the plains, and there's a Lich Tower. Below is the Dark Forest, the Phantom Knight Tomb, and two small caves nearby... Well, that doesn't look good. Better explore upward."

Fang Mo stroked his chin, quickly deciding the direction to head.

The exploration of the Twilight Forest had a specific order.

Many beginners ran around aimlessly. Some went straight to the Dark Forest and were blinded, while others stared cluelessly at the magic barrier on the Lich Tower.

In reality, there's a specific order to defeating these bosses.

This is why the Twilight Forest doesn't have a guide spirit. Otherwise, the guide would probably say something like: "Adventurer, explore the areas ahead later!" or something similar.

According to the settings.

The first BOSS that needs to be defeated in the Twilight Forest is the Jungle Naga.

This thing is a terrifying giant anaconda, usually living in some ruins of the jungle.

Due to the Naga's years of living in the ruins, its body has gradually been influenced by a certain power. Its scales are not only as hard as iron but also have a special effect that resists magic.

Only by killing the Naga and using its scales to make armor can one resist the powerful witches with magic on the plains in the settings.

Of course, these are just the background settings of Twilight.

The actual Naga...

Steve killed it with just two strikes.

I have to say, the attribute broadsword is really useful. Western swords are also good since they pierce armor and cause direct damage.

After dealing with the Naga.

An achievement emerged in Fang Mo's mind.

[Achievement: Naga Hunter.]

"The first one."

While controlling Steve to pick up the spoils from the ground, Fang Mo murmured to himself and then ran towards the location of the second BOSS, which is one of the few plains in the Twilight World.

On the boundless Twilight Plains.

A huge Lich Tower stands silently.

Normally, adventurers should enter from the entrance below, then fight various monsters inside for countless rounds, struggling all the way to the top of the tower, to finally face the terrifying Lich.

However, Fang Mo doesn't play by the rules.

After confirming the location of the top of the tower, Steve built some blocks under his feet, directly stacking his way to the top. He then broke through the ceiling, jumped in, and went straight for the Lich's head with relentless blows.

The Lich BOSS is quite interesting.

Upon spawning, it's surrounded by several damage-reducing shields. While these shields are active, not even his sword can harm it.

To break these shields, generally, you would have to use the Lich's own power. It shoots magical orbs at players. If the players reflect these orbs back, it will break one of the Lich's shields. Once all shields are gone, you can start dealing damage.

But...

As mentioned before,

This is the general approach.

Fang Mo, not wanting to waste time, had Steve pull out several instant healing potions and vigorously splashed them on the Lich's crown.

Although the logic behind it is unclear, this method does break the Lich's shields.

As a result,

The Lich couldn't stand against Steve's great sword.

It fell dead, dropping a heap of miscellaneous equipment.

"The second one."

Fang Mo had Steve collect these items, and amidst the clutter, he found a Zombie Scepter.

"Hmm... Zombie Scepter."

Looking at the Zombie Scepter in Steve's hand, Fang Mo instinctively touched his chin.

The Lich BOSS drops four scepters (three in earlier versions), each with different abilities, corresponding to its own attack patterns. This Zombie Scepter can summon one or multiple zombies with power boosts to fight for you in the game.

However, these summoned creatures eventually ignite after some time and perish.

Of course, this is a feature in the game.

In reality, the actual capabilities of this item are still quite intriguing.

After dealing with the Lich, Fang Mo didn't bother with the Lich Tower. The materials inside weren't precious to him, and handling those monsters would be quite troublesome. So, he had Steve dig through the wall, making a leap of faith.

Just before hitting the ground, he placed a bucket of water to negate the fall damage.

After defeating the second BOSS, the Lich in the Twilight,

There are more places for Fang Mo to go.

According to the background settings, the Lich's scepter contains powerful magic, enough to disperse the mosquito swarms in the swamp, illuminate the eternal darkness in the Black Forest, or resist the cold in the Snowy Forest.

This means that Fang Mo's upcoming BOSS challenges are no longer linear but have branching paths. He can make different choices based on his preferences.

The final BOSS in the swamp is the Hydra in the Fire Swamp.

The final BOSS in the Snowy Forest is the Snow Queen in the Aurora Castle.

As for the final BOSS of the Dark Forest, it's the massive Twilight Wraith.

To ascend to the final castle and challenge the Barren Highlands, all these BOSSes must be defeated. Of course, the order in which they are defeated doesn't matter.

Fang Mo pondered for a moment, then shouted, "Long live the Hydra!"

After that, he rushed toward the swamp.

Just as to defeat the Lich, one must first defeat Naga to obtain scales.

To defeat the Hydra, there's also a prerequisite task, which is to solve the problem of the Minotaur in the swamp palace.

As everyone knows, mushrooms can grow on cows in the MC world, and the legendary Minotaur is a half-human, half-bull creature wielding a huge axe.

So, deep in the maze of the Twilight Swamp, the half-human, half-bull Minotaur, due to staying underground without sunlight for a long time, has developed a lot of fungi on its body due to the dampness of the swamp, turning it into a half-mushroom, half-bull, half-human monster.

In any counter-game,

This is definitely a monster that would cause one's sanity to plummet.

However, in the MC world, adventurers are not afraid of it. They kill it, cut off its meat, and stew it with the mushrooms on its body into a soup.

After consuming this bizarre meat soup, the appetites of the Twilight adventurers greatly increased.

All of them said that they were no longer afraid of anything, and even if the king of heaven came today, they would try to taste what the Hydra tasted like.

The Twilight Swamp Labyrinth is actually quite annoying.

After all, the author of Twilight understands the nature of these players.

No door?

Okay, I'll make one.

So, to prevent this phenomenon, the author of Twilight placed a layer of bedrock between the two layers of the maze. Also, the building blocks of the maze are so hard that ordinary pickaxes find it difficult to dig through.

Even if Fang Mo is an old player,

He still inevitably wasted some time here.

But he didn't leave empty-handed. After all, there are many good things in the Twilight Swamp Labyrinth.

Like the true artifact of the Twilight Forest, the Uncrafting Table.

The core item to craft this is hidden in a chest somewhere in the Swamp Labyrinth.
