After navigating through a winding cave, they finally encountered the second boss, sighing with relief internally.
If it wasn’t for the Shining Fruit for positioning, dealing with the ghost would have been impossible. Those bizarre bats were silent in flight, adding to the eeriness.
Without the Shining Fruit illuminating the cave, the DPS and healers could have been instantly killed by the bats. If everything was clearly visible, they could promptly shift aggro, preventing such accidents.
Overall, the second part of their journey was thrilling yet safe. When Li Yao had used up thirty-six Shining Fruits, they had arrived at the hall where the second boss resided.
“Brother Prairie Fire, you’re going to make a fortune this time.” Envious, Sky and Sea said.
Li Yao, who was reviewing the boss information, was startled. “What do you mean?”
“What?” Sky and Sea responded with a bitter smile. “You don’t know that during this period, the value of Shining Fruits has soared, from three silver per batch to the scarce twenty silver per batch, but the problem is that the farmers don’t have any. They said that even if they farmed all day, they wouldn’t harvest many Shining Fruits.”
Li Yao chuckled. “And now the players who have learned herbalism are crazily exploring the map, right? Surely, there’d be more wolves than meat.”
“Exactly, if there was a normal output, although it couldn’t supply the guild regularly, it would at least temporarily alleviate the situation. But now, the news of Shining Fruit’s drastic inflation spread like wildfire, and a crowd of people are hoarding for the potential respawn locations.” Sky and Sea said, looking at Li Yao with a strange expression.
Although they hadn’t seen this situation firsthand, they could imagine brawling for a herb, with the odds of getting a Shining Fruit after collection not even being high.
Li Yao laughed. In Gu Shen, very few outdoor herb and ore spawn points were fixed; only a few were certain, and the rest were random. Gathering herbs required a meticulous search.
Farming herbs and ores in the wild was the most tiring job ever. A particular herb could just sprout from the grass under your feet or respawn on a cliff that was impossible to climb. It was indeed an agonizing ordeal.
“Bro, you must prioritize selling us, the Brilliant Guild, a batch of Shining Fruits.”
After all the chatter, this was Sky and Sea’s real goal. The difficulty of obtaining an item grows exponentially when everyone is looking for it.
“Of course, but let’s wait till you guys pass the Master level Elder One before reaching out to me.”
Li Yao laughed. Passing the Master level Elder One wasn’t that easy.
Even for him, with his Crystal Spider, it was incredibly tough. He couldn’t guarantee 100% success, not to mention other teams.
His approach was almost impossible to replicate. Nowadays, there were very few hunters with elites as pets, let alone silver elites, particularly the Crystal Spiders that spit out robust silk.
Plus, at only twenty silver per batch, this was just ridiculous. They haven’t truly realized the importance of Shining Fruit yet. When some teams taste defeat, they will know that it’s impossible without Shining Fruits. That would then trigger the real appreciation of Shining Fruits.
Now, less than ten times the profit wouldn’t make Li Yao sell.
“Cunning merchant.” Sky and Sea flipped the bird.
“Thanks for the compliment.” Li Yao chuckled. “Shadow Dance, haven’t you identified the boss attributes yet? Hurry up.”
“Almost there, boss, don’t push me. I couldn’t help with the identification failing again and again. It’s really hard to identify this boss’s information.”
“Screw it. I’ll send you the information. By the time you identify, the third boss would already be dead.” Li Yao directly sent the information of the second boss to the team chat.
“Darn it, boss, you’ve already identified it and you’re still having me do it. That’s unfair.” Shadow Dance was upset.
“If I do everything, then why do I need you guys?” Li Yao responded righteous and indignant.
The team chuckled, except for Shadow Dance, who also flipped the bird quietly.

“Huh, this boss’s attributes are so weak.” Da Vinci exclaimed.
“Weak?” Li Yao shook his head and said, “Let’s put it this way, to be the second boss, it must at least be stronger than a flame caster.”
“Not necessarily. If you find a way to kill it, it might be easier than the first one.” Dull Pupil Pupil said.
“Yeah, first, you have to find a method. Pupil, do you know how to beat this boss?” Li Yao asked back.
“How would I know? Isn’t that why we have you, big brother?” Pupil playfully stuck out her tongue.
“I’m not omnipotent.” Li Yao shrugged.
“People say that seeing the elite mode, this boss is very nasty, and summons a wave of elites from time to time. It’s very difficult to deal with.” Feng Yi said.
“Well, looking at her skills, it only seems like summoning. Give it a try, in a while Fruit Knight will still be responsible for the boss, and Big Stone, you draw the aggro of the summoned mobs, as soon as the mobs come out, focus on the mobs first.” Li Yao clapped and said, “That’s it, buff up.”
A flurry of shimmering lights was scattered as every available buff was cast.
Fruit Knight quickly approached the boss.
“Again, the damned adventurers. I’m tired of killing you guys.”
The Blood Crow was shrouded in a faint blood mist, but one could vaguely see her holding a crossbow burning with flames, clad in a crimson leather armor, and her face was very beautiful and alluring.
Boom…
A flame arrow was shot with force; Fruit Knight instinctively raised his shield.
-1359
“Damn, it’s gonna insta-kill us.” Both Guardian Angel and Da Vinci hurriedly healed.
“The damage is terrifying. This is the damage without a critical hit. If it crits, Fruit will be definitely be insta-killed.” Sky and Sea said, his heart trembling with fear.
A shadow seemed to drape over everyone’s heart. Even with Fruit’s top-notch defense, reduction, and resistance, this was still the situation. Any of them would not withstand the boss’s arrow.
However, Fruit Knight, after striking the boss with Sanction Hammer and normal attacks twice, the Blood Crow used Shadow Roll to put distance between them, then continued to attack with arrows.
“Don’t just stand there, attack!”
The melee fighters then were seen chasing the Blood Crow around, but they managed to hit the boss only a limited number of times.
The ranged DPS continued to cast spells; this was everyone’s first time dealing with a boss with a small hitbox, elusive movements, and exceptional agility like the Blood Crow.
Spell hits became a huge problem. However, before anyone could adjust, five elite zombies sprung out from the ground.
Seeing this, Big Stone’s face turned green…
