After one’s character died in “The One”, one could stay lying dead on the ground for one minute and wait for a priest or his teammates to revive him.
After one minute, one would be forced to revive in the safe zone.
During the limited 60 seconds, Reyker had been checking the various designs of the room.
He believed that the designer of the dungeon would not design such a biased dungeon.
The attributes of the fishman witch made it almost impossible for players of the melee class to defeat it. Could it be those in the melee class couldn’t do anything even after receiving this mission? That was absolutely impossible.
After a round of scanning, Reyker found no clues.
So he repeated the whole process again.
Finally, after dying for a second time, he found something out of place. There was a letter under the witch’s throne.
Although this could very well just be a design of the scene, Reyker still rushed over.

After being attacked twice in a row, Reyker finally picked up the envelope under the chair.
A “ding” sound suddenly sounded.
[Received a letter from Count Hilder.]
Reyker opened the letter and saw the words: “Stranger who picked up Elena’s love letter, please open that page again.”.
Seeing this, Reyker opened his mission backpack. The book “Human in Water” was lying quietly inside.
He opened the page as stated in the letter and saw a paragraph about fishmen.
It wrote, “Once creatures in the water come ashore, they have to use mucus to separate themselves from the dry air. Their gills cannot support them to breathe on land for a long time.”
After just reading this paragraph, Reyker died in the dungeon again.
On the way to the witch’s room this time, Reyker took his time. After killing the fishmen on the way, he found that the mucus on the fishmen’s bodies dried up very quickly.
Then he observed why the mucus on the other fishmen did not dry up. He found that there was a special organ on their back that was constantly spraying mucus to ensure that they would not dry up.
Following this, he tried destroying the organ on one of the fishmen’s backs. As expected, the mucus on its body dried up after some time. Then, it acted like a fish out of the water as it stretched out its large hands and struggled as if trying to catch something.
Along with this, Reyker discovered that a suffocating debuff had appeared on the fishmen. The effect of the debuff caused them to lose 1% of their maximum HP every second.
Now that he knew how to deal with fishman witch, a dangerous smile appeared on his face.
Then, he rushed into the cave again.
This time, his attack method was different. After paralyzing the witch, he turned around and launched attacks on her back.
Not long after, the witch transformed again.
When she transformed, Reyker began to attack the mucus-producing organ on her back.
When she finished transforming, the organ had been completely destroyed.
“Ah!” The witch let out a scream, then turned around and began to attack Reyker crazily.
But now there was only one thought in Reyker’s mind, and that was to run.
As he ran, he observed the witch’s condition.
After running for a minute, a suffocating debuff indeed appeared on the witch’s body.
“It worked!” Reyker said happily.
As long as he could hold on for another 30 seconds, victory would be his.
However, because of the suffocation, the boss’ attacks became even more berserk. The entire room was almost filled with vines. Let alone 30 seconds, even three seconds would be harsh as there was simply no space to step on now.
At this moment, a bold idea appeared in Reyker’s mind: what would happen if he ran out of the main door?
He had been restricted by his matter-of-course thinking, that the space of a dungeon was only the size of the room.
He jumped with all his strength and pushed the door open.
Sure enough, a notification that he had left the boss battle did not sound by his ear.
He was now free, just like a fish leaping in the sea or a bird flying in the sky.
Reyker ran along the main passage that he came from, behind him were countless vines chasing after him.
Just as he was running out of strength, the vines suddenly stopped.
Was the witch dead?
