Chapter 884: , the daily routine of the dungeon
In the past few years, the Mercenary Guild spent their nights in the fragrance of wine and roasted meat. Today, it had become a group of people staring at the interface of the weave, constantly clicking on the mouse and keyboard.
The archer was one of them. After downloading World Rift in the afternoon, he spent nearly half a day to level up to level 15.
“I’m already level 15! Where are you guys?”
The archer controlled his character and ran all the way to the entrance of the dark mine dungeon.
He had killed his way out of a group of people.
Because there were too many players around the novice village, even if the officials added two new server streams and many players attacked the same monster, they would still get the experience of the monster.
The archer was still shocked by the spectacle of more wild people than monsters.
Usually when their mercenary group went hunting in the dangerous wild, they were lucky to meet one or two of their peers. But… In this world, there were only peers in the wild, no monsters!
Of course, this was just a metaphor.
The Archers had their wish fulfilled and joined the team established by the Scarlet Snake.
Currently, more than half of the members of the Jefferk’s snake mercenary group had joined the ‘Scarlet Snake’guild in the game.
The Archers had just gathered 15 people, so Rona led the members to begin the hero-level dark mine challenge.
“Leska, pay attention to the red circle under your feet!”
Rona once again became the commander of the entire team in the game.
“Toran, release the ice… No… Tell your pet not to run around!”
As the advisor and commander of the snake of Yevilk, Rona was always able to command his team members to cooperate perfectly in reality. However, in the game, he entered a state of confusion.
Many of the members played characters and classes that were completely different from the real world.
“All clear. Everyone recover your HP. We will begin the leadership battle later.”
Under such circumstances, the members of scarlet snake still managed to clear the monsters in the first region. Unfortunately, these monsters did not drop any useful equipment. All they dropped were some materials and money.
While Rona was recuperating, the members of scarlet snake who were in good condition began to explore around the dungeon. This was their occupational disease.
While the injured members were resting in the real world, they could explore the surrounding environment.
“Rona! There’s a gnome here.”
While the archer was wandering around the dungeon, he found a room with a single gnome. According to experience in the real world, gnomes were extremely weak creatures.
Thus, the archer could not control himself. He allowed his character in the game to aim, pull the bow, and shoot in one go.
“Goblin? Damn it! You’re messing with the Miner!”
Rona had just shouted the goblin’s name when his character entered battle mode. The next second, he saw the archer’s character running towards them.
What made Rona Despair was the large group of magic puppets following behind the archer.
Rona covered his eyes in despair.
In less than ten seconds… all the members of the scarlet snake stared at each other in soul mode.
Rona had a headache as he covered his head. He looked at his fourteen members in the graveyard… He didn’t know how to fight for a while.
“This doesn’t make sense. How can a goblin cause so much damage to me? And where did those magic puppets come from?”
“Because that goblin is a leader monster! Leader, do you understand? It’s the black-winged behemoth of the Holy Spirit…”
Rona resisted the thought of kicking the archer out of the party and calmed down for a while to recall his experience of raiding heroic mode dungeons.
“Rona, we need a healer.”
Morris, who had been silent all this time, reminded Rona at this time.
“You mean a priest?”Rona opened up the configuration of his party. There were a total of fifteen people in the party, but not a single priest.
In reality, they did not have a class like a priest in their crusade against Magical Beasts. There were only pharmacists who healed wounds after the battle ended.
“Can’t we just kill the magical beast? If the situation isn’t right, we can retreat.”The archer said, somewhat puzzled.
This was something that a qualified hunter would often do, which was to patiently wait for the prey to bleed to death after heavily injuring it.
However, after the monsters in the World Rift left the battle, their HP would instantly recover to full.
‘The Captain has chosen to leave the dungeon.’
‘Magic Bullet has been removed from the party.’
“Rona? !”When the archer came back to his senses, he realized that he had been kicked out of the party.
“None of you are playing as priests?”
Rona ignored the archer and shouted at the Crimson Serpent’s people beside him.
Their answers were all shaking their heads. Helpless, Rona had no choice but to start recruiting wild priests in the public channel.
[ dark mine hero-level 15-man party recruiting a priest! ]
Not long after Rona sent this message, a series of private messages popped up. He checked the equipment of these priests one by one and finally chose a priest named ‘short-tentacle wand’.
[ I have another friend who is also a priest. She wants to join us. ]
The short-tentacle wand sent a message to Rona.
“Your Friend?”
Rona saw a human female character appear in front of him. Her name was ‘tide of outliers’.
This female character was indeed a priest. Her attributes were slightly better than the short-tentacle wand. Rona considered that a priest might not be able to take care of all the members, so he endured the pain and kicked out another member of his guild.
“You’re betraying me!”
The archer blamed Rona for abandoning his mercenary group members and bringing outsiders into the dungeon.
“I’ll bring you to fight next time,”Rona said very seriously to the archer.
..
The short-tentacle wand almost forgot the time he had spent in this cabin. He had even forgotten to eat and drink.
In his eyes, there was only the world rift. He could only fight monsters and level up!
The World Rift had become his brand-new spiritual food. The short-tentacle WAND’s level had already reached level 15.
When he browsed the Spellcasters’Forum, which had an additional ‘World Rift’sub-area, he found that the equipment that could be dropped in the wild could only be blue-grade at most.
Only in a challenge called a dungeon could one obtain purple-level epic equipment.
The player’s pursuit of equipment was always the most greedy, and the short-tentacle wand had unknowingly acquired this kind of greed.
Thus, he stopped leveling and wanted to challenge this dungeon, and he was lucky enough to get a party… the scarlet snake.
“The Lord’s HP is close to death. Be careful of the Lord’s blade flurry… priests, pay attention to the frontline warriors’hp. When the Lord makes a flurry move, cast the maximum healing.”
The short-tentacle wand responded to the voice.
On the battlefield, a Lord Monster dressed like a female assassin was slaughtering its teammates in front of it. The short-tentacle wand kept casting healing spells on the warrior who raised his shield in front of it.
The strength of a heroic difficulty monster was far beyond what the short-tentacle staff had expected. With his fragile little body, he would die at the touch of a casual touch.
However, those monsters could not touch him at all… because the fully armed warriors in the team would always be the first to stand at the front.
They had already arrived in front of the last leader of the Dark Mine. This leader’s HP was close to zero, and he was only making a final struggle.
Finally, the leader let out a furious roar and fell to the ground unwillingly under the bombardment of a mage’s frost arrow.
At this moment, a series of golden words slowly appeared on the mana net interface.
‘achievement: Conqueror of the dark mines!’
‘Scarlet Snake has cleared the hero level of the dark mines! Clearing Time: 47 minutes! Their names will be engraved on the second position of the hero Stele!’
Hero Stele?
The short-tentacle wand recalled that there was a stele at the entrance of the dungeon. Clicking on that stele would reveal a window. On the window, there was only a very monotonous ‘1. Fuya’s adventurer team — 37 minutes’.
At first, the short-tentacle wand thought that this stele was only used to commemorate something like God Fuya, but it did not seem to be the case.
“This seems to be a notification that everyone in the world rift can see.”
A member of the scarlet snake sent a message. In that instant, the short-tentacle wand froze. He glanced at the message and saw the word ‘world’.
Unfortunately, this honor belonged to the Scarlet Snake Guild. As an ordinary member of the temporary team, he was not qualified to enjoy this honor.
“Would you like to join Our Guild?”
Suddenly, the short-tentacle wand received a private message. It was from the party commander, Snake’s eye.
“Your Guild?”
“No one in our guild likes to play with priests. You and your friends are very capable.”
After he sent these messages, the short-tentacle wand received an invitation to join the guild.
The short-tentacle wand didn’t think too much about it and immediately accepted the invitation.
“Is this purple-colored equipment what you want?”
While the short-tentacle wand was communicating with Snake’s eye, Hymina, who was sitting next to him, suddenly interrupted his thoughts.
“What purple… didn’t I tell you not to touch it!”
When the short-tentacle wand turned back to look at Hymina’s mana net interface, it found that she had already begun to search for the dungeon leader’s corpse while the members of the scarlet snake were in a daze.
“Can’t I just pick it up? Do I need the captain to decide who gets it?”Hymina read out the notification in the game word by word.
“Epic equipment? ! Three pieces!”
When the short-tentacle wand came back to its senses, it clearly saw the equipment on Hymina’s interface. There were a total of five leaders in the dark mine. The first four leaders had also dropped two epic equipment, but the short-tentacle wand had not been distributed at all.
This time, the legendary epic equipment was only a hand’s distance away from him, but in reality, it was very far away.
As a newcomer to the guild, he had no right to compete with others for this equipment.
“We mages can’t equip the amulet. Short-tentacle wand, you and the tide of outliers will roll the dice to decide who gets it.”The news from Snake’s eye caused the short-tentacle wand’s heartbeat to begin to accelerate.
Among the weapons equipped by priests, the staff was common to mages. However, there was another type of weapon known as the amulet that only priests could equip.
“It’s roll the dice!”
The short-tentacle wand looked at Hymina. For a moment, she seemed to have become the world’s greatest enemy.
He trembled as he clicked on the ROLL option with his mouse.
In less than a second, the system instantly displayed ‘short-tentacle wand has thrown 20 points.’
The moment he saw the 20 points, the short-tentacle wand felt like it had a heart attack. This dice could only be thrown out for a maximum of 100 points. 20 points was already considered unlucky.
He gritted his teeth and stared at Hymina. Hymina was shocked by the short-tentacle WAND’s expression, but she still gently clicked on the ROLL option.
‘tide of outliers has thrown out 17 points.’
The moment the short-tentacle wand saw the system notification, the twisted expression on its face was once again taken over by the word ‘happiness’.
[ the short-tentacle wand has obtained the Sikoris Amulet. ]
The system notification in his eyes was a divine revelation. He excitedly stood up from his seat and raised his hands high as he cheered.
However, the cheering did not last long. The short-tentacle wand fell straight to the floor of the cabin, and with a happy smile, he fainted.
