Chapter 35: Invincibility Skill, Level 10 Dungeon
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was noon, so Li Yi made some food to eat and then headed to bed. He slept until 7 p.m.
It was not time for him to go online yet, so he went straight to his computer to check the forums online. Almost everyone was paying attention to the news about the newly unlocked dungeon.
The Divine Revelation’s forum was full of complaints about the dungeon being too strong and it was too difficult to fight it. Many people wrote that what the company did was simply inhumane.
However, the people from Divine Revelation officials did not care about this at all. Around 2 p.m. they released a top-level announcement. The players thought that it was to reduce the difficulty, but it was actually just an official post.
[Divine Revelation: Dear players, due to the current players’ adaptability, we have decided to no longer limit the time of the players in the game system. The time for game helmets, and VR glasses will be increased by six hours.]
Everyone thought that the difficulty level of the dungeon would be reduced, but that was all. The players began to share their opinions in the forums, in the form of curses of course.
...
Li Yi smiled to himself when he read through the colorful posts. This dungeon was indeed difficult, so it was understandable that they were complaining.
It was around this time in his previous life when the game pod no longer had a time limit for staying online. It was also around the time when the prices of the game pods soared, and it caused many players to feel a little regretful as to why they had not purchased it earlier.
However, it was a benefit for him as he would not need to log in and log out so frequently anymore.
Li Yi grabbed some food to eat and immediately logged into the game. The first thing he did when online was to head straight to the Novice Village. It was time to fix this ring.
Not long after, Li Yi arrived in front of Scarkey’s house and handed him a pure black crystal plate and a ring.
Scakkie threw the three crystal plates of different colors and the ring into a strange jar. Then, as he muttered a few things. Suddenly, a ring with a strange glow flew out of the jar.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtScarkey nodded and said, “Alright! This is your ring. I hope you can take good care of it!”
Li Yi picked the item up and immediately checked the attributes.
[Equipment: Lost Ring]
[Rarity: Perfect]
[Magic Defense: 55]
[Attribute Buff: All attributes +15, Critical Hit + 8% , Attack Speed +0.6/second]
[Perfect Skill: Lost Magic, players will become invulnerable for 5 seconds after activation. No damage or control would be taken! Cooldown time of 24 hours!]
[Equipment Condition: No level restriction]
“It’s actually an invulnerability buff? But this ring skill did not appear in my previous life. Could it be that the skills are random?”
Regardless, Li Yi immediately equipped the Lost Ring, and his attributes increased by a large margin. This included the invulnerability skill, which made it into a powerful ring!
Following that, Li Yi arrived at the village square. He saw the Little Merchant from afar and traded with him.
Li Yi did not hold back with his needs and said, “Get me some potions. I’m going to try and contend the dungeon. Also, get me a bag full of Mana Potions and Health Potions!”
“You... you really don’t use potions as potions do you? A bag? At most, I’ll give you 30 stacks of them. It’s too tiring for me to make so many in one go!”
With that, the Little Merchant gave him 30 stacks of Mana Potions, Health Potions, and the most important of all Defense Potions. Little Merchant did not forget to add an added bonus of a pained expression towards Li Yi.
[Beginner Mana Potion (made by player): Recovers 100 mana points in 5 seconds. The effects can not be stacked.]
[Beginner Health Potion (made by players): Recovers 500 HP in 5 seconds. The effects can not be stacked.]
These potions were much better than the potions sold in NPC shops. Moreover, the prices were around the same. Therefore, very few people went to the shops to buy potions anymore, and they only bought potions made by players.
“Alright, I should go. You can decide when you want to sell the rest of the potions!”
...
Li Yi glanced at his friend’s list. He saw that Snow Chaser, and Clutch King were online. It was time to contend this dungeon to get to the next level.
[Come to the Novice Village and gather. Let’s fight this dungeon together!!] Li Yi wrote to both of them.
Snow Chaser was already in the Novice Village and had just received the message. She was holding a magic wand in her hand, and her snow-white features smiled when she read the message. She wore tight-fitting leather armor, which outlined her graceful figure very seductively.
“Carefree Dream!”
At that moment, Clutch King had also run over from a distance and caught sight of Snow Chaser in front of Li Yi.
[Brother, you’re really not bad. How did you find such a beautiful girl so quickly? Can you ask her to introduce her best friend to me?] Clutch King quickly sent a message to Li Yi.
Li Yi rolled his eyes at this kid and ignored him. He came up to the two of them and cut to the chase, “Wait for me guys, I have to get something, then we can set off!!”
He passed the Health Potions to both of them while they waited. The Health Potions were actually prepared for Snow Chaser and Clutch King as he himself did not need these potions.
“Alright, let’s go. It’s time to take a look at this dungeon.”
...
Soon, the three of them reached the left side of the village. There was a large square that had been respawned here. As long as they stood in this square, they could be teleported into the dungeon anytime, anywhere.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Recruiting people for the normal-level dungeon. All warriors have to be at least level 5. Also looking for those with 400 HP and above, and with a defense above 30. Otherwise, please don’t approach us!”
“Looking for people to come together and clear the elite-level dungeon together. Once you enter the party, you must distribute the attributes. Otherwise, you’ll be immediately kicked!”
At this moment, there were already quite a number of players in the square. They were wantonly shouting for people to join them so that they could enter the dungeon together.
On the other hand, there were a small number of people who looked like they had already challenged the dungeon. They walked out dejectedly, dragging their feet, it was obvious that they had just been taught a lesson by whatever was in the dungeon!
There were also many elite members from different guilds around. Watching the defeated players, many of them frowned just as much as the others. They had not entered the dungeon yet. For an unfamiliar dungeon, there had to be someone who went in first. Only then would the elite members be allowed to enter after they understood the rules of the dungeon.
The rules of the dungeon were as such. It had to be a party of more than 10 players, but not more than 20 should be allowed in together. It would not matter if they failed or succeeded, whether it was a success or a nightmare, they would only be allowed to enter the dungeon once a day!
Moreover, were the players to fail the dungeon challenges and die, they would lose 50% of their maximum EXP each time. If the EXP was less than 50%, they would directly lose their levels. It was very difficult for them to level up now, so they only studied the dungeons from afar.
...
Li Yi also prepared to gather a few decent players.
They had to at least have decent equipment. Otherwise, they would die immediately after they entered the nightmare-level dungeon.
As soon as a celebrity like Li Yi entered, many players turned their heads. One by one, they all ran over and begged him to bring them into the dungeon. However, the players that asked had equipment that was not good enough.
At this moment, a group of players squeezed their way through the crowd. The members from Scorching Sun were led by a familiar person, Sun Conqueror himself!
“Carefree Dream, I was looking for you and saw that you weren’t online just now. Now that you are, I feel that without having you in this dungeon, it would really be difficult to clear!”
Li Yi nodded. If he were to choose the players, members from Scorching Sun would have been his first choice. At the very least, the members of the guild all had good characteristics, so it would be very reassuring to bring them through the dungeon.
“Alright! You guys choose seventeen people. Then, we’ll go in together and clear the entire nightmare-level dungeon. Before that, we need to make things clear, when there are weapons dropped, how should we distribute them?”
Sun Conqueror nodded and said, “We don’t want the equipment. We just need you to lead us through the dungeon!”
The members of their guild had already gone in to check the attributes of the monsters. After some discussion, they realized that it was near impossible for them to clear the dungeon before level 10. They could only find someone to lead them now.
As long as they cleared the dungeon, they would be included in the server announcement. That way, the reputation of the guild would also be greatly increased.. With the increase in reputation, the number of people wanting to join the guild would also increase. This was something that money could not buy!
