confront the Nature Knight, Drunken Spear someday.”
Wan Er looked at her phone, her mouth wide open, “What the…someone is mocking Zhan Long!”
“Who’s mocking us?” Old K asked.
Wan Er replied, “Drunken Spear… he said, ‘Zhan Long only has a combat strength of 5…”
TL: Combat strength of 5 = Dragon Ball reference – Raditz scans a human farmer and sees that his combat power is only 5 which by their standards is very weak – Credit to JohnFox
“Asshole!” Old K thumped the table with his fist, “He should pray that I don’t see him!”
……
I kept calm, “Don’t let words make you explode in anger. This kind of temper should be avoided at all costs. Zhan Long’s first step will be taking a foothold in Ba Huang City. If Drunken Spear wants to poke fun at us then let him do so. But after we finish the 5 Barbarian Tomb Mission, we’ll go and pay a visit to Drunken Spear!”
“Okay!”
Once online, I appeared on the third floor of the Five Barbarians Desolate Tomb. Looking at my equipment, my sword’s durability was at 11% and my breastplate armor was at 72%, with the rest of my equipment’s durability being within 20% to 60%. I ran towards the first floor without any hesitation to find the Blacksmith Old Man and repair my equipment. Upon my return to the third floor, everybody appeared online one by one. In a few minutes, all ten members were together.
Onward to the fourth floor!
The fourth floor’s entrance was a deep pit approximately one meter wide and this time there were no stone steps. It just led to a straight up fall all the way down, yet there was no doubt that this was the entrance. It looked like the ground of the third floor had a hole poked through it and plunging through this hole would lead directly to the fourth floor.
“Shit!”
I looked around for a moment and finally stood up, saying, “This kind of fall would surely lead us to our deaths. Every floor’s height has brought us down at least 100 meters…”
Yuzi Chengshuo laughed saying, “We will, but you won’t. Don’t forget your defense and health. The only one here who wouldn’t fall to their death is you, don’t you dare back out now…”
I pondered for a moment, nodding, “Okay. Buff me properly and I’ll go down first to confirm when it’s safe then I’ll call you guys!”
“Got it!”
Wan Er laughed lightly, “Be careful!”
“Yup.”
Hoisting my Frost Rain Sword, I turned around and jumped down. I was immediately met with a free fall as my cloak fluttered behind me. It was extremely dark and the sound of wind wrought havoc on my ears!
I could barely open my eyes and my left hand had already undergone preparations to cast [Heal] on myself.
“Huala!”
The wind blasted past and my eyes suddenly lit up so that I could see again. Not good!
Right below, there was an impressive hell made of magma; there were rows and rows of sharply pointed pillars that were a crimson red from the magma. Once a player fell down here, he would most likely get run through by these pillars and become a roasted kebab!
In a moment of desperation, I took up my sword and used my strongest skill, [Wind Blade] to chop at these sharp lava pillars in the hopes of avoiding any disaster!
“Peng!”
Gravel flew out and the pillar of lava consequently split. Yet I still smashed against a sharp cone with a “Peng!”. Blood burst from my chest as a huge damage number flew out–
“2249!”
My heart almost stopped and I was scared death. Fortunately I wasn’t killed!
Immediately healing myself and brought my health up 900 points, before communicating in the party chat, “It’s not very safe down here. Dong Cheng, Matcha, since you two can fly get down here first.”
With flapping wings, the two girls came flying down. Immediately, Dong Cheng Yue covered her mouth in astonishment saying, “Whoa, so many stalagmites, yet Xiao Yao, you actually survived the fall….”
I was speechless, “Are you looking forward to my death that much? You guys up there, jump down one by one and I’ll catch you. Wolf, how about you come down first?”
“Alright, Brother Xiao Yao!”
Within the empty space a shadow suddenly swept down. Wolf’s agility was really quite high.
I calculated a good point of interception and flew over, reaching out to grab Wolf’s arm and took advantage of my rotation to effortlessly slow him down. Right after, Old K, Dong Cheng Lei, Fox, and Yuzi Chengshuo dropped down one by one. It was risky but not quite dangerous. Lin Wan Er was the last one to leap down. Preparing for her, I spread my arms and waited there for quite a long while, only to discover her floating down with her opened iron umbrella quite casually.
Damn it, my posture and expression were in vain.
……
Standing still and replenishing ourselves, we prepared to battle!
Not far off, war horses neighed unceasingly. The iron hooves of countless undead war horses trampled wildly across the floor. The Knights seated on the back of each war horse had already died very early on yet their spirits lingered on. Each Knight had a long sword in hand and they exhaled a rotten breath with a stench. They were all fully armored and above their heads floated line after line of words–
【Hun Tribe Horseman】 (Elite Monster)
Level: 60
Attack: 1110-1440
Defense: 900
Health: 9000
Skills: 【Charge】 【Arc Moon Slash】 【Flame Blade】
Introduction: Hun Horsemen, the Hun tribe’s elite fighters, they hail from beyond the Great Wall and have powerful killing capability, therefore accumulating a wild nature to an astonishing degree. Utterly brutal and cruel, they take pleasure in killing others. Once Ran Min died in battle, these Hun tribe horsemen became a part of his tomb’s guardsmen.
……
“Finally, Lv 60 Elite Monsters…” Dong Cheng Yue smiled “These Lv 60 heavy armor horsemen take 50% more magic damage. My favorite type of monsters…”
Lin Wan Er cautioned “Don’t underestimate the enemy, they have high defense, high attack and high health. These kind of horsemen are definitely the strongest Elite Monsters we’ve seen so far. Let’s think about how we should deal with them. They have [Charge] which can stun us and once stunned, they follow up with [Arc Moon Slash] and [Flame Blade]… Normal players can’t handle that kind of damage.”
Before we even finished talking, Dong Cheng Lei raised his axe and charged ahead, “Haha! I’ll fight as the vanguard!”
My God, Ah Lei!” I quickly shouted, but it was already too late.
Dong Cheng Lei instantly pulled all the aggro and the first Hun Tribe Horseman immediately went berserk, raising his spear and charging after Dong Cheng Lei. Old K, worrying that Dong Cheng Lei couldn’t handle it alone, quickly followed behind “Ah Lei! I’m coming to help you!”
“Shua!”
The metal horseman suddenly sped up, leaving after images behind him. This was the effect of [Charge]!
“Peng!”
Dong Cheng Lei was pushed back around ten meters and entered a state of dizziness. At the same time, the Hun Tribe Horseman raised his long sword and delivered an arced blow, hitting both Old K and Dong Cheng Lei with the same strike.
“1472!”
“1621!”
