Chapter 799: Ambush In The Hallway (1/2)

I let out a heartfelt sigh. This OP card could greatly increase one’s Attack, Defense and HP. Those steel-like Bronze Beasts had extremely high Defense. This card that could increase one’s Defense by 40% was even better than any Spirit-grade or Earth-grade equipment!

Even if it were an Earth-grade equipment, I highly doubt that it would be able to boost one’s Defense by a whopping 40%! In addition to that, this card added another 20% HP and 15% Attack! I love this card to death!

Tossing the card to Du Thirteen, I laughed and said, ”Thirteen, use this card. It will increase your HP and Defense, so you won’t get killed so easily.”

”Mn.”

Du Thirteen activated the card and his Defense increased instantly by 40%. With his HP and Defense increased significantly, I did not have to keep looking out for him. It was too tiring for me to do so.

Glancing back at the navy blue helmet in my hands, I waved a hand over it to take a look at its stats. Everyone turned their heads immediately to get a closer look and gasped in shock. ”What an OP helmet!”

……

”Mn? Cyanblade set…” I muttered under my breath, ”Does Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower drop sets? Did anyone check the database…”

Pure Love replied, ”It does indeed, Lu Chen. I just checked the database. The first three floors of the Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower drop the Cyanblade set. However, no one knows what equipment will drop on the fourth to sixth floors. And only the heavens know what high-level equipment will be awaiting us on the last three floors…”

I licked my lips and replied, ”Goddammit, this Cyanblade set is really strong. It’s even stronger than the Dragonblade set that some of you are wearing right now. It’s no wonder that they all said this Land of Soul Suppression is full of treasures. Even a normal monster here drops Spirit-grade equipment! This map does not disappoint indeed! Let’s do our best, everyone! Gather as many Cyanblade sets as you can!”

”Mn! Let’s do our best!”

Everyone’s spirits were lifted at the thought of a new set. That Cyanblade set was of high level and had good stats. One could make a fortune just by selling it. Equipment sets were few in Heavenblessed, high-level sets were even rarer! Moreover, a Level 155 set was perfect for the top players. Every such set was practically priceless!

……

I asked in the guild chat, ”Chengfeng, how are things on your side?”

Li Chengfeng replied, ”We encountered a few traps and only a hundred or so players made it through. The rest were not willing to try and come over. Meanwhile, Hall of Immortality and Rose of the Holy Domain have caught up with us. I’ve told the rest to go grind the Scavenger Imps as they give rather high EXP. Lu Chen, what about yours?”

”Only 190 or so players made it past that goddamned trap. We’re slaughtering Bronze Beasts now. Everyone, pick up the pace! We need to reach the boss as quickly as we can!”

”Yessir!”

……

The road ahead split into eight different paths, but each led to the boss anyway, so it didn’t matter which path we took.

He Yi spoke up, ”Let’s part ways. Each group will take a path.”

”Mn, let’s split ourselves. The more mobs we kill, the more EXP we’ll get.”

”Let’s go!”

Our party chose the rightmost path and we split ways with the other three parties. The path was nearly thirty meters wide and it was packed with Bronze Beasts. Everyone’s blood was pumping with excitement as growls rang out in the air. The countless Bronze Beasts before us were bags of EXP and equipment! That Cyanblade set was appealing enough to make one drool all over.

Stepping over the bodies of those Bronze Beasts, we swiftly pushed forward. Beiming Xue would aggro eight or so Bronze Beasts and I would activate my Icy Cyclone Domain. Du Thirteen would then quickly trap them with his Poseidon while everyone else quickly hacked away at the Bronze Beasts. It took less than two minutes to eliminate a bunch of Bronze Beasts and our EXP continued to increase dramatically with each kill. Even players who were simply leeching from us were receiving an insane amount of EXP. Leveling up had never been quicker!

Bang!

A bluish-green whip and Phantasmal Magic Stone fell to the ground and I picked them up to get a closer look. Sure enough, it was a Cyanblade Whip that we have been yearning for. Now, I had two pieces of the Cyanblade set in my inventory!

After two hours of grinding and gaining a huge amount of EXP, I had managed to level up and reach Level 158. Even so, I still was not on Sky City’s Heavenly Ranking. Goddammit, everyone was leveling up at an insane speed! It was going to be a difficult feat to enter the Top 10 once again!

……

At this moment, we heard a noise from the back. Cute Little Naughty gripped her dagger and melted into the air. ”Vice leader big bro, I’ll go scout it out. It seems like we have company!”

”Mn.”

There were four assassins in our party and one of them was Cute Little Naughty. Odds of winning in a PvP battle were much higher when one had assassins in their team.
