Chapter 28 (1/2)

Fatty was not a hero. Sacrificing himself for others wasn’t his style either.

Since they had entered the dungeon, Fatty didn’t want to gain nothing. Since it was hopeless to hope that they would clear the dungeon, at least he had to figure out what the Boss’ attack and defense were, what skills it had, how he should deal with the Elites that were with the Boss, and so on. That way, he could be prepared to enter the dungeon next time.

It was normal for such scattered parties to fail the dungeon during their first try. A party formed last minute didn’t have enough matching classes or teamwork. However, if they still failed next time, it would be a little embarrassing…

After assigning a task to each player, the party once again started attacking.

First, they attacked the bandits in the periphery, who posed no problem at all. By using the Flaming Imp’s range flame arrow spell, they drew them one by one before they besieged ten bandits one after another, turning them into EXP.

After killing the bandits in the periphery, each of them obtained 700 EXP and the money dropped was a total of 2 Silver Coins and 25 Bronze Coins. Each of them received 45 Bronze Coins. Furthermore, there were two Level 10 Warrior Blueprints. One of them was a Greatsword of the Warrior Class, while the other was a Staff Blueprint.

The Greatsword Blueprint was taken by Bookworm, who was unable to hide his happiness.

The Staff Blueprint could be used by all three players of the party. However, due to the low output of Fatty’s Venomancer, he ranked lower in the Party Contribution. Although Smoking Without Fire had a healing output, after deducting the additional 20 points of the party leader, his ranking was lower than the ranking of Playing With Fire.

Smoking Without Fire had thought that when the system allowed him to choose first, he would choose to give up and let the system rotate to Playing With Fire.

Indeed, the dungeon rewards were very rich. If they could obtain a few blueprints after killing these monsters, one could imagine how many rewards they could obtain if they managed to kill the Boss and Elites.

After the allocation was over, the battle with the Boss was finally left.

Playing With Fire’s Flaming Imp threw a flame arrow over to Bandit Chief Jason from afar. Once it hit him, Gerov, Jason, and Bellamy, who had been sitting beside the campfire, shouted right away, “Intruders!” Then, they suddenly stood up and very quickly rushed toward everyone.

“Attention!”

Upon hearing Fatty’s reminder, Bookworm couldn’t help but clench the longsword in his hand nervously.

The Two Elite Deputy Bandit Chiefs were on the front line. After Bookworm shouted and his longsword hacked at Elite Bellamy, Fatty released his Miasma Skill and hit Boss Gerov, who was in the back.

“-3”

The damage was terrifyingly low. At Level 12, although Fatty didn’t add any points to his Intelligence stat, he relied on leveling up to obtain basic points. Now, he had exactly 10 points plus 2 initial damage points of the Miasma Skill. The magic attack that directly hit was around 18 points. He had actually only caused single-digit damage!

However, it was fine as long as he dealt damage. When he saw that Gerov had targeted him, Fatty controlled his character and broke into a run!

After Bookworm managed to tank Elite Deputy Bellamy, Playing With Fire hurriedly made his Flaming Imp draw away Elite Deputy Jason. Then, Crayon Knife and Smoking Without Fire hurriedly joined the fight.

After Fatty drew Boss Gerov away from the battlefield, he realized he was in deep trouble.

Gerov’s movement speed was not just a little faster than he had imagined, but much faster! This Boss was the Agility type. Since he was a bandit, he naturally belonged to the Thief Class. Compared to his movement speed, Fatty was as slow as a tortoise.

Not long after he ran away, Gerov caught up with him and hit him on the butt…

“-62”

Damn it! Fatty saw with his own eyes that his butt had really been hit, causing him to feel awful. During the pause after Gerov attacked him, Fatty hurriedly ran in another direction.

By running in a zig-zag manner, he could avoid some physical attacks and those monsters that could not move easily. However, this did not apply to Bandit Chief Gerov.

Last time, in order to kill the 5-star Goblin, Fatty had added two free stats to his Luck. However, after leveling up, he had made up for it. Overall, he had still added 1 point to Luck and 1 point to his Constitution. Now, he was at Level 12 and he had a total of 24 Constitution Points and 260 HP. Despite Gerov’s high attack power, Fatty could still withstand it a few times.

However, the zig-zag method did not play its role. The amount of health he had spent was in vain. Hence, when he saw Gerov once again catch up with him and prepare to attack him, Fatty played his trump card!

He pulled off a very intense side roll!

As a product of the previous stage of virtual games, the holographic gaming device had appeared about 20 to 30 years ago. During that period of online games, the actions of the characters had already been very close to reality. The characters in the game could perform thousands of different actions that allowed the player to exercise, which were recorded with motion capture. While the player controlled his game character, he could even perform an action like picking his nose…

Correspondingly, because of the big number of actions, the traditional keyboard operation had become incompetent, so the keyboard on the controller of the holographic gaming device had been improved a lot!
