He opened his mouth and probed,
“Granny, can you tell me about the rules in Hive-like? I can give you an extra Bloodsoul as payment for the information!”
Helena replied, “Sorry, I only sell things, not information. If you want to know more about this place, you’ll have to go there yourself.”
“Okay.”
The test failed.
It was the same as what the previous challengers had said.
This old granny NPC would not tell the challenger any information about Hive.
She was purely a merchant.
With that thought, Lin Ye turned around and planned to let the Tree Guardian take him to the left path to challenge the Hex Teacher and the other monsters in the Forest of Fallen Giants again.
However, Helena suddenly raised her head and looked at little Mumu, who was standing behind Lin Ye. For the first time, she warned him.
“Traveler,”
“Remember to be careful of the black-armored spellcaster swordsman floating in the forest.”
“If you meet him, run immediately. Don’t fight him, or you might accidentally lose your life in this cursed place.”
Lin Ye looked confused at the sudden advice.
‘Huh?’
‘Didn’t we agree that this old lady was just a normal NPC?’
‘Why are you suddenly warning me?’
‘Wait a minute!’
‘Her gaze wasn’t directed at me… She was not warning me about the Hex Teacher, but to little Mumu!’
‘Jeez!’
‘Biased much?’
However, after warning little Mumu, Helena immediately shut her mouth and refused to say anything.
Lin Ye could only give up on the idea of getting more information from her. He took little Mumu and the others back the way they came and rushed to the other side of the forest.
It was nothing more than fighting and killing along the way.
Relying on the Dragon-Armored Tree guard and the Evil Omen Spirit’s terrifying combat power, Lin Ye began a rare period of slacking off. He didn’t really attack seriously the entire time, at most, he would cast a few healing waves and healing spells then he goes back to slacking off.
There were even times when Lin Ye just cast a reverse heal, but the enemies he was aiming at were instantly killed by the two bosses.
His reversal Skill landed on the lonely air.
Other than the air, it did not hit anything.
What else could he do but slack off?
Was it a waste of mana?
Fortunately, this boring journey ended quickly. Lin Ye and the others saw a familiar secret dungeon Boss under a big tree, the Knight Hyde.
This Knight was still the same as before. He was disguised as a soldier beside a pile of corpses. He leaned against a big tree, lowered his head, and did not move.
In front of it, there was a fixed treasure chest. Once you opened the chest, this Knight would definitely quickly get up from the ground and stab your stomach.
Lin Ye guessed.
There was definitely a Hive-like challenger who had never seen the Hyde Knight before. He excitedly ran to open the treasure chest, only to have his butt gouged out by the sinister Hyde Knight.
‘It’s a pity that when this big brother meets us, he’ll be gone in a blink of an eye.’
It was a reversal. The treatment package!
[The Hyde Knight had entered a state where all his attributes had been greatly reduced!]
[Hyde Knight has obtained two random debuffs!]
“Tree Guardian! Evil Omen Spirit! Little Mumu! Go!”
“It’s your turn!”
Heaven strike! Despair Strike! Death’s Triple Slash!
The Golden Hammer! Landing slash! Second Horizontal Slash!
Set Attack!
BOOM!
As a result, the Hyde Knight didn’t even have time to stand up before he was drained of more than half of his health by the “four Big Brothers”, and directly entered a state of serious injury.
It forced itself to stand up and gave itself a mouthful of Holy Light to recover some of its HP and increase all its attributes.
However, Lin Ye had already prepared a surprise for it.
It was a reversal. Stars Godly Glory!
Dispel the opponent’s “all attributes greatly increased” effect and extend the duration of the opponent’s “all attributes greatly reduced” effect!
The Hyde Knight looked on in confusion.
Lin Ye didn’t want to waste time talking about it. He immediately raised his blade, Hidden Moon, and rushed in front of it with the Big Tree Guardian and Evil Omen Spirit beside him. He madly reduced the HP bar above the Hyde Knight’s head.
Just like that.
The Hyde Knight, who had close to 30,000 HP, unwillingly fell under everyone’s combined attacks.
The whole process took less than 20 seconds.
[Prompt: You have killed the Hyde Knight and received 120 Bloodsoul points. You have also received the “Soul of the Dead of Unknown Origin”.]
[Soul of the Dead of Unknown Origin: 500 Bloodsoul points can be obtained after crushing it.]
They killed the Hyde Knight.
Lin Ye ran over to open the fixed treasure chest.
This time, he had finally opened a piece of equipment that he could use in real life.
…
[Equipment Name: Rebirth Jade]
[Type: Waist Accessory]
[Current Forging Level: LV 1 (Max level 20)
[Quality: Platinum (High)]
[Equipment Requirement: None]
[Equipment Effect: All attributes +10, HP +500, +100% base health recovery, has the ‘rebirth’ effect.]
[Rebirth: After leaving the battle, recover 1% of your health points every 10 seconds.]
…
The waist accessory that mainly increased HP and HP recovery abilities, and it also added an additional point to all attributes. The level limit had also been changed from level 10 to level 20. It was a complete replacement for his Spirit Belt.
The “rebirth” ability wasn’t very useful in the real world. Lin Ye could use his own healing Skills to heal himself, but when he couldn’t use any healing Skills, this ability to get out of battle and recover HP was probably useless.
However, in this Hive-like instance dungeon, “rebirth” was a pretty good passive.
For example, if there were a lot of monsters under the “Skill failure” curse, like the one in One-Line Sky Forest, and Lin Ye drank potions to develop resistance to it, he would have to rely on his “rebirth” ability to quickly recover his HP.
Otherwise…
He could only find a relatively safe place and take a nap while he was on his last drags of his HP. He would slowly wait for his drug resistance to recover, or wait for his blood volume to naturally be full.
So,
Lin Ye didn’t hesitate.
He immediately took off his Spirit Belt and broke it down into smithing stones.
Then, he equipped the Rebirth Jade Pendant on his waist accessory slot.
[Consume the forging stones in your bag and bring them to level 15, increasing your HP and all attributes.]
After doing all this, Lin Ye’s curiosity was piqued again. He glanced at little Mumu’s loot box.
A Gold-grade Trashy Necklace
‘Ha.’
‘I knew it.’
‘It felt like Bai Zhi’s Lady Luck had taken away all your luck.’
‘There was really no end to this.’
Otherwise, how could someone eat the guaranteed good equipment three times in a row?
Unable to complain about Mumu and little Mumu’s bad luck, the group continued to move deeper into the Forest of Fallen Giant, and new elite monsters and heavy-armored soldiers began to appear along the way.
These monsters with maxed physical resistance were much stronger than the Kingdom’s ghost soldiers. They were covered in black heavy armor, held black Spears, and held shields that could block physical damage.
Even if the Evil Omen Spirit was a Platinum-grade big brother, it would still take a lot of effort to kill them when surrounded by three or four heavily armored soldiers.
The Tree Guardian had a hard time dealing with these small monsters, but now that he had changed his Class to the Dragon-Armored Tree Guardian, he could cast fire and lightning spells, so it was extremely easy to deal with these heavy-armored soldiers. He only needed a few spells to evaporate them all.
Then there were a few fire-breathing elite lizards. They were completely different from the heavy armored soldiers. Their magic resistance was full, but their physical resistance was very low.
He had to take advantage of the gap between them, spitting fire to get close to them and attack their fragile stomachs and tails to quickly kill them.
For those Professionals who took on the challenge alone…
These two elite monsters with completely different weaknesses were very difficult to deal with.
However, to Lin Ye…
‘Ha.’
‘I’m sorry.’
‘We have physical attacks, demon attacks, and real injuries.’
‘No matter how fancy your attribute panel is, it’s useless.’
Just like that, Lin Ye and the others easily broke through the encirclement of the new monsters and arrived at the gate of a Human Castle. In front of them was the second secret land Boss that guarded the gate, the Last Giant.
Yes, that’s right.
It was the Last Giant, not the Cursemancer.
The Cursemancer was on the rooftop of the castle’s top floor.
They had to defeat the Last Giant and enter the castle before they could challenge the famous Cursemancer.
It wasn’t like the “Magically modified dungeon” that Lin Ye cleared before, where he had to kill the Hex Teacher for the first time first and then the Last Giant to get the hidden treasure chest.
“Master Lin Ye?”
“How do we proceed?”
“It’s simple. This giant at the end looks big and fierce, but this guy is actually stupid and slow. You guys can play however you like.”
“After we’re done, we’ll go to the castle and mess with the Hex Teacher.”
“That guy…will be the real trouble.”
