[TL Note: I also have no idea why the chapter name is this, LOL.]
In fact, Jiang Xiaoyue didn’t want to go into the underground tunnel which was damp, gloomy, and full of zombies. Seeing Fang Qi running into it, she stomped her foot and followed reluctantly.
Ruan Ning, Xi Yue, and the other two girls looked at each other. They had had some trust in Fang Qi, but after looking around, they wondered if it was wise for them to believe him...
However, they had used so many Random Teleportation Scrolls to come here, and they couldn’t just give up.
It was an underground tunnel built with bricks, and it was full of zombies. Fang Qi swung his zhanmadao and led the way.
At this moment, the female wizards had only learned the Fire Resistance Ring and Fireball Spell.
Su Yao, a little Daoist, hadn’t learned the Soul Fire Rune Notes yet and could do nothing but heal and poison monsters before hacking with a saber.
Meanwhile, Ji Wu and the other players who were not involved in yesterday’s war were getting close to level 20.
They began exploring the Biqi Mine Pit with a big group of royal guards. Meanwhile, the players from Dajin were killing monsters in the Zombie Cave while people from the Morning Star Sea Realm fought in the Skeleton Cave; there were no conflicts between them at this moment.
“Father...” Royal Princess Ji Yu waved her weapon and killed a zombie that was rushing toward her before saying, “In this world, there seems to be no other special benefits besides the fast growth of cultivation strength...”
“The only other benefit is that the basic sword technique gave us a more solid sword technique foundation,” the Second Prince said, “But it has been many days now.”
An Huwei and the others were also playing the game, and even Song Qingfeng had reached level 17.
However, without the support of the Royal Gold Hunting Team or buying gold coins from other players to level up, the speed of strength growth wasn’t faster than playing the single-player computer games.
The great war pulled many players into the game, but when they found that the effects of the Legend of Mir 2 were not as good as they had expected, they became doubtful.
Despite their doubt, the small conflicts and sneak attacks that were common in the game taught the players from the academies the survival skills which were quite useful to people with low cultivation strength like Song Qingfeng and Xi Qi. So, the current players continued playing the game.
As for the players who didn’t play the game like Nalan Hongwu and Lan Mo, they continued playing the Legend of the Sword and Fairy and Diablo and watching the TV Series.
...
– Meanwhile in the secret underground tunnel –
The problem with being in the underground was that there was no light. Fortunately, they could use torches even though the illumination range was very limited.
It was a convenient place for them to level up. After their potions ran out, they just went up to the Sarbark City to replenish the stock in the pharmacies on the ground. After several trips, they killed so many monsters that only a couple of small cat monsters were left.
Several hours had passed, and they had obtained two Lightning Spell Skill Books, a Summon Skeleton Skill Book, and a Soul Fire Rune Spell Skill Book for Su Yao. Then, Mr. Fang led his team to venture into the next level.
After walking down a flight of trapezoidal steps, they entered the Fragrant Rock Tomb.
Since no one had been here before, this place was full of monsters, which was why Fang Qi didn’t dare to take Jiang Xiaoyue down here yesterday. Fang Qi remembered that there was a zombie wizard in here that could use Swift Lightning Flash, which was a powerful offensive technique that wizards could only learn at level 26. If they were attacked by the zombie wizard while they were surrounded by monsters, even Fang Qi’s items would be no match for it. If they died here and dropped items, they didn’t have to think about coming back to pick them up.
However, with three wizards, two Taoists and a summoned skeleton by his side today, Fang Qi ventured into the Fragrant Rock Tomb and decided to give it a try.
After three days, all the team member got their basic techniques, such as Soul Fire Rune Note, Summon Skeleton, and Lightning Spell. Fang Qi and his team ventured into the third level of Fragrant Rock Tomb.
By this time, they hadn’t seen a dog hair, not to mention the Dog Book!
Their leveling up speed had become slower. Fortunately, the growth of cultivation strength relied on killing monsters instead of leveling up. Otherwise, they would have given the whole thing up!
Three days later, the lowest leveled team member was at level 23, and Fang Qi had the highest level, which was only level 27.
When they were almost done killing the monsters in the Fragrant Rock Tomb, they seemed to hear iron chains dragging on the ground in the darkness behind the monsters.
The sounds were so crisp that they could be heard clearly among the roars of the monsters in the underground!
Hearing these sounds deep into the dark underground, the girls felt their hair standing on end. “What is it?!”
Fang Qi remembered that there were corpse kings living in the Fragrant Rock Tomb. At his current level, he didn’t dare to enter Corpse King Palace even if the knew the way. He only dared to try his luck in the Fragrant Rock Tomb!
As the torchlight lit up the space deeper into the tunnel, they saw a giant monster with ashen skin and iron chains attached on its body!
The torchlight seemed to have attracted the monster’s attention as it moved over, and this monster turned around and moved swiftly toward them!
Its huge and brawny arms, distorted rotten face, and the overwhelming suppression emitting from its body were enough to make people shiver in fear.
“Xiaoyue! Use poison! Get the skeletons to tank it first!”
“Lightning Spell! Fire Notes!”
The corpse king was obviously faster than other monsters. In a few seconds, it ran before them, and the skeletons that tried to block it were sent flying by a swing of the iron chain!
“Ahh! It is coming at us!” The female wizards were panicking. Usually, the Lightning Spell and Fire Notes would stun the monsters or knock them down, giving the long-distance professions the time to pull away. However, this corpse king showed no reaction after being hit by the spells and techniques!
Fang Qi could only rush up and concentrate his energy!
“Ahh!”
With a thunderous yell, a bright sword light appeared in the darkness as Fang Qi attacked with the Slaying Sword Technique, slashing toward the neck of the corpse king!
However, Fang Qi’s heavy zhanmadao seemed to have hacked onto metal, and the wound in the skin he inflicted was less than one centimeter deep!
On the other hand, a huge repulsive force pushed back, numbing Fang Qi’s hands!
The corpse king swung its chain, and Fang Qi scrambled to block it with his saber before he was sent flying!
“F*ck!” After falling onto the ground, Fang Qi was frustrated when he saw that a large portion of his HP was lost. “Even the corpse kings are so strong; how can we fight the Zuma Clan Master later?!”
However, Fang Qi had successfully attracted the attention of the corpse king. When the latter charged at him, he yelled, “Attack!”
Lightning Spells and Fire Notes were thrown onto it wildly!
The corpse king paused and was about to turn from Fang Qi. Fang Qi immediately stood up and hacked toward it. At this moment, the corpse king already ran toward Jiang Xiaoyue with a furious roar!
Soon, Xiaoyue was also struck by corpse king’s chain and lost lots of HP even though she had dodged it in time!
“Xiaoyue! Stop attacking!” Fang Qi yelled. He had found that the corpse king didn’t possess any high intelligence. After he hacked at it from behind, the corpse king turned its attention back to him!
Fortunately, they had cleared out a big area and thus had room to run while the corpse king chased after them.
“Split up! Scatter! If it turns to you, just stop attacking!” Fang Qi obviously was experienced with such creatures that had low intelligence. After several rounds of chasing, the corpse king finally fell to the ground with a scream while running!
At this moment, almost all of them were wounded. If not for their quick reflexes and excellent eyesight as cultivators, some of them probably would have died!
Right now, they saw that the corpse king dropped a lot of things, such as potions and gold coins, after dying.
After clearing the monster that they had drawn out by accident, Fang Qi picked up the Skill Books from the ground. Holy Armor Spell, Group Healing Spell, and Enchanting Light.
Mr. Fang was at a loss for words.
