Chapter 61 - Exploration Through the Unknown Dungeon (1/2)
What a hide-and-seek champion! It’s hidden in such a remote location that not even birds would come. How the heck did Curly Monkey even come across this?!
“Buzz!”
Jiang Fei put his head right through a stone wall. There was no resistance whatsoever. The surface of the wall warped, and then sucked him in.
The moment he passed through, the scenery changed. Jiang Fei found himself inside a dark cave!
“Hiss…”
Unlike regular dungeons, unknown dungeons were ruthless. They were not generous enough to provide players with any safe zones. Five venomous snakes quickly gave him a warm greeting!
Skewbald Tiger Snake (Wild Beast, Normal)
Level: 15
Health Points: 800
Attack Power: 68
Skill: Toxin Attack
Remark: A seemingly weak species of snake, yet deceptively venomous!
A glance told Jiang Fei all he needed to know about these enemies. Curly Monkey had already mentioned them in passing, but Jiang Fei knew nothing more than the fact that he had made three solo attempts, only to succumb to overwhelming stacks of the poison DoT.
Ice Burst!
“Puff…” Jiang Fei huffed and puffed all over the snakes.
-632!
-1,350! (Critical hit!)
-608!
-621!
One Tiger Snake instantly went down after being struck by critical damage, while the remaining became encased in solid ice.
Iron Fist!
Triple Bash!
Jiang Fei swung about, finishing off another two Tiger Snakes.
-1!
-125! (Level 1 Venom!)
“Oh, sh*t!” Although Jiang Fei had taken great care, quickly finishing off the three snakes, the last snake had still managed to sink its fangs into his leg.
Physical damage was a joke. Jiang Fei’s Defense had exceeded 500. Even the Elite Tigermen were unable to penetrate his Defense!
However, Level 1 Venom was nothing to scoff at. 125 poison damage was a lot for Jiang Fei! One should remember that Jiang Fei had upgraded his equipment. The Bearmen Elites could only dream of scoring three-digits on him.
By now, Jiang Fei’s Physical Attack was almost 200. Each hit delivered 160 to 170 damage. In addition to his Lifesteal and Laceration effect, the last snake quickly fell.
The Experience Points obtained from the three snakes was higher than the Experience Points he obtained solo-ing the Normal Mode dungeon. As expected, this Unknown Dungeon is truly worth the name! However, something bothered Jiang Fei. The venom was stackable. It only stacked up to a maximum of three, but it posed a very real threat to his life, something that not even Lifesteal could mitigate.
After Jiang Fei took a knee to recover his Health Points, he proceeded with utmost caution.
“Clatter…”
A soft noise crept into Jiang Fei’s ears, freezing him in his tracks.
Jiang Fei glanced about but failed to spot anything. He frowned.
“Clatter…”
The noise emerged again.
“Hmm?” This time, he was able to hone in on the source of the noise —— Underground!
“Bang!”
Not far ahead, the ground suddenly exploded, and a dry, withered hand stretched out from the ground!
“Crack…”
A head and body followed, and not long after, a dry and withered zombie appeared in front of Jiang Fei in the blink of an eye!
“Wooooo…” With a low growl, the zombie pounced towards Jiang Fei!
This zombie did not walk upright but crawled on all fours. It did not move as slowly as Jiang Fei imagined. It was almost on par with the speed of a regular player. It scrambled up to him in no time at all!
Corpse Eating Zombie (Undead, Elite)
Level: 16
Health Points: 2,200
Attack Power: 345
Skill: Open Wound, Virus Infection.
Remark: Very high Movement Speed. It can cause bleeding and sickness, dealing sustained damage.
At that moment, the zombie raised its dry and withered hands, each finger equipped with three-inch long claws and slashed at Jiang Fei!
“Dong!” Jiang Fei raised his shield. It did nothing but serve as some visual fluff. Nevertheless, he at least felt better doing so.
-272!
