It was 4 vs. 1! Fatty’s suggestion was beyond Smoking Without Fire’s disapproval!

After he clenched his teeth and approved this suggestion, everyone got up and walked to where the Undead Thief NPC pleading for help was.

After being pierced by a knife in the back, the Undead Thief NPC hadn’t actually died. He told everyone in a trembling manner, “Help… Help me. I… I’m a member of the Observation Group of the Supreme Presbyterian Church. Just… Just now, a band of bandits appeared in Queros Heights. I was instructed… to investigate and found… found this band of bandits were actually on the run from the Holy Order Assembly… If possible, I would like to ask you guys… to wipe off this band of bandits. Otherwise… please bring this news to the Supreme Presbyterian Church…”

Then, he died…

They naturally had to continue moving forward. The Gerov Bandit Camp was located in the depths of this forest. As long as they followed this path, they would reach that place. This didn’t pose any difficulty. However, on the way, everyone encountered a pack of Forest Wolves.

This pack of Forest Wolves was relatively large in number, as there were more than forty. The wolves blocked the path to the Gerov Bandit Camp.

Upon seeing so many of them, no matter how dumb one was, they would know that they shouldn’t use a melee class to draw the monsters over.

It was also night in the dungeon. Of course, it was not so dark that they couldn’t even see their extended hands. The players could still see the scenery clearly but couldn’t see far away, as the area was shrouded by hazy, dense fog.

Although these Forest Wolves were sparsely scattered, because they were sleeping on the ground at night, nobody knew whether they would alarm one of them and awaken them.

“Brother Chicken, should I make the Imps draw them away?” Playing With Fire turned and asked for Fatty’s advice.

Fatty froze before he replied while feeling muddle-headed, “Oh, let’s go.”

Since there was no commander besides Smoking Without Fire, the other three players treated Fatty as their commander! This was not just because Fatty had objected to Smoking Without Fire. At the very least… this Venomancer’s voice sounded more convincing…

The Flaming Imp that Playing With Fire had summoned was a little imp covered with fire. The Pyromancer Class belonged to a typical summoning class and had strong powers that could summon abyssal creatures. Although they had to rely on a Flaming Imp in the early stages for a long time, after they learned to summon the Blaze Nightmare, the Fire Monarch, the Hellfire Giant, and other powerful skills, the combat power of this class would become even more powerful than the Holy Order Assembly’s Ice and Fire Mages!

After Playing With Fire controlled the hopping Flaming Imp and made it move some distance to the front, it shouted oddly and tossed a firebomb out, hitting one of the sleeping Forest Wolves!

The Forest Wolf naturally wasn’t happy about being awakened. Two other Forest Wolves nearby were also awakened by the explosion of the flame bomb. As a result, the three Forest Wolves ran toward the Flaming Imp.

Although this was somewhat unsatisfactory, drawing three monsters at once was Playing With Fire’s limit. Anything else would require more precise plans.

Along with the three Forest Wolves, the Flaming Imp ran back over to everyone. Death Knight Bookworm moved forward to tank them while the rest were supporting him with their attacks from behind. The Forest Wolves didn’t have a very high level, as they were only at Level 2 2-Star. However, they were more in number, so the party had to be wary of the attacks.

This time, Smoking Without Fire properly waited for the chance to heal Bookworm and didn’t fight over the contribution points. He knew that now that Fatty had brought it up, the others were staring at him.

At first, Fatty had warned him. When Playing With Fire made use of the Flaming Imp to attack and draw one Forest Wolf, the burden on Bookworm was reduced. However, Fatty was somewhat preoccupied at the moment. Hence, he didn’t say a word. He only focused on the Forest Wolf the others were concentrating on. After releasing two Corrosion Skills, he used the Miasma Skill and attacked one with one move after another.

He was currently focused on carefully observing the distribution of the Forest Wolves. Since there was no hope of clearing the dungeon successfully, the best way was to try to get familiar and remember each segment of the dungeon before analyzing it. Only this way could they succeed the second time.

In fact, when they encountered the pack of Forest Wolves blocking the path, Fatty vaguely had some thoughts…

After spending some time to wipe out the three Forest Wolves, he looked at the EXP obtained. It was lower than killing the three Human Thieves. Each of them could only obtain 60 EXP.

Such a pack of wolves was probably there so the players would farm EXP. Despite their large number, only two kinds of items were dropped. The first kind was Forest Wolf Teeth, forging materials, and some Weapon Blueprints, while the second kind was Tattered Fur and tailor-made armor and equipment.

With patience, Fatty and the party drew the Forest Wolves over one by one, which gave them a lot of EXP. They obtained a total of 2,760 EXP from 46 Forest Wolves. He could almost level up to Level 13, but he only obtained a huge pile of wolf teeth and fur.

Forging materials were hard to obtain and comparatively precious. The players would spend their Party Contribution Points to purchase them. However, such a primary material only made the free allocation mode divide them in the end.

After killing all the Forest Wolves, they continued walking down the path and finally reached the last segment of the dungeon, which was the Gerov Bandit Camp!

This was a simple camp. One could see that there were only a few tents made of shabby yellow tarpaulin. Not far outside, some sharp tree stumps posing as fences surrounded them to prevent the invasion of wild animals. In the camp were more than ten bandits that looked the same as the Human Thieves they had encountered in the beginning. Their faces were covered with face cloths and they were each holding a dagger in their hands while wandering and patrolling.
