104 Time to Mine (1/2)
I can't pass up this moment. Getting Gold Ingots during the first mining will yield a lot here. Gold ingots can be used to forge good weapons and armor along with some necklaces and other accessories. I don't plan to sell them but to use them for my own to increase my stats and damage output.
With the help of Leona, I arrived at the nearest place where the Underground Cave of Gold is located. I didn't drop directly to the place of the dungeon as it may attract other players nearby. The place I landed into is a hidden place I am quite familiar with which is why I am confident enough it is safe to use this place as my landing point.
There are still no players on the road to Underground Cave of Gold's vicinity which means many players right now might be testing the new classes and checking the changes of the game.
”Bladeheart! Over here~” Dolly is waving at me in front of the entrance to the Underground Cave of Gold.
”Is this the dungeon entrance you mentioned?”
”Yes. I wanted to clear this dungeon while other players have not discovered it yet.”
”You got the confirmation that you are the first one to discover the dungeon?”
”Uhuh, but I don't want to share it with others since I might get backstabbed once more.”
”Then why did you contact me?”
”I can tell that you are not going to do the same as those other players. You are strong enough and you have no intention to abandon teammates. Besides, you might have already beat me up in the beginning since you can solo dungeons right? My presence will be a hindrance if you are one of those backstabbing players.”
”Heh, you are indeed a strange one. But thanks for inviting me to this dungeon raid. Let's get inside and check it out. Add me to your party.”
After forming a party with her, we went inside. Entering the dungeon entrance, the notification appeared before me,
[You have discovered the dungeon; Underground Cave of Gold]
[Underground Cave of Gold]
Difficulty: Medium
Level range: 50-90
”I checked the main entrance only and did not come deeper. However, I can easily tell there are enemies in the far distance,” Dolly said.
”Let's continue then. We can begin our raid once the difficulty of the dungeon pops out. We don't have to worry too much about it.”
Not too far from the main entrance, two cave slimes appeared, eating an ore vein.
[Cave Slimes]
Level 50
HP: 10,000/10,000
MP: 1000/1000
Attributes: Slime, Metal Element
Unlike weak slimes, Cave slimes are annoying. They are not as easy to defeat enemies and if you are unprepared, they will melt your defense and armor before you can react, and will immediately suffer.
”Dolly, hit them with Flame magic. They don't easily die with physical attacks and most elements except fire magic are resistant against these monsters.”
”Okay!” Dolly immediately invoked Fire Plume to the Cave Slimes. She has quick casting skills so she immediately released magic before the slimes can notice.
-Dolly dealt 5,348 damage.
