……
What the fuck! Was this still even a shadow-rank monster? It actually dealt more than ten thousand damage to me! Meanwhile, Li Chengfeng and High Fighting Spirits were receiving the beating of their lives. They bared their teeth as they both lost nearly 17000 HP! Thankfully, there were several priests who were busy healing us from the back and Moon Dew was one of them. Even with all that healing, the three of us barely survived this single attack made by a Level 160 shadow-rank monster!
Swhoosh!
An arrow flew in and ended the Star Rhino’s life. Beiming Xue’s attack had finished off the mob and a round Phantasmal Magic Stone dropped from it. I immediately picked it up and tossed it to High Fighting Spirits.
”Let’s continue!”
I climbed up a small hill and that sight that greeted me sent shudders down my spine. Li Chengfeng and High Fighting Spirits soon joined me and their jaws simultaneously dropped to the ground in shock and fright! They yelled, ”Fucking hell, did we enter some sort of rhino farm?!”
A vast, rolling plain greeted us and countless Star Rhinos were ambling along the ground. They bent down to chew on the tender grass as the sounds of their bellows reverberated in the air.
”Did you check out what happened earlier? These Star Rhinos give a ridiculous amount of experience! Even after it was split among the hundred of us, I still saw my experience bar light up…” Li Chengfeng said with a shit-eating grin on his face.
I nodded my head, ”As long as you receive 0.1% of the experience you need to level, your experience bar will light up. These Star Rhinos really do give an incredible amount of exp and if I kill one by myself, I would probably gain 1% in one go! One hundred of them would be just enough to level…”
High Fighting Spirits couldn’t help but chuckle as he grinned from ear to ear. ”Then, this current situation is simply perfect for us. Let’s clean this place of Star Rhinos! Sounds good, right?”
”Yeah. Send out a few assassins to go scout out the boss's location. The rest of us will stay here and clear the area of these Star Rhinos. These are the last shadow-rank mobs in this huge dungeon, so they will probably drop some nice items for us as well.”
”Alright, let’s keep up the killing!”
We rushed down the hill and entered the plains, there was experience to farm! High Fighting Spirits, Li Chengfeng, and I each split off into three different teams and each team had five priests attached to it. The three of us would act as the main tanks and we would lure one Star Rhino in at a time. This would greatly increase our farming speed.
I was practically the main damage-dealer in my team as well, and there was a 70% chance that I would deal the last hit to the mobs. My 33 Luck would ensure that my item drop rate was good as well. It was too bad that Chaos Moon wasn’t here though. If not, her Famous General Skill, Plunder, would boost my drop rate by 120%! That would have been wonderful!
……
We received a new piece of news in the guild channel
Xu Yang: I got a new battle report. The Great Earth Wind Dragon was killed by the Warsky Alliance in the end. However, the beautiful Wind Fantasy stole three pieces of equipment, and the dragon scale was stolen by Moonkiss. Warsky, Farewell Song, and the rest sacrificed a few hundred people to kill the boss, but they really only got experience in the end…”
Gui Guzi: ”Hahaha, Warsky Alliance are really a tragic bunch, aren’t they? See how clever we were! If we had chosen to fight over that boss with Snowy Cathaya and Purple Lily, we would have sacrificed the levels of way too many of our guild members to get that dragon scale!”
He Yi giggled: ”Lu Chen, right now, these eight dragon scales are split among the big guilds, but have you thought about what the final result will be in this map?”
I chuckled: ”There will only be one result! Someone will end up taking all nine scales and exchanging them for the grand prize of this quest. Hmph, when everyone enters the B9 floor, they’ll start clearing the map of Star Rhinos. The guilds will definitely start fighting each other after that. The dragon scales are designed to drop if the player holding them dies, so we need to focus on protecting the scales that we have right now. We also need to look out for opportunities to snatch the dragon scales from the other guilds!”
Li Chengfeng spoke up: ”Heh, Lu Chen said exactly what I was thinking. Only eight hundred people can enter the ninth floor. So let’s sit back and enjoy the show, boys and girls!”
Chaos Moon: ”Everyone seems really lively huh…”
He Yi’s laughter sounded like silvery bells. ”Hello, my pretty Chaos Moon. Your Ghost God Prophecy…”
Chaos Moon giggled. ”I finished dying…”
I replied, ”Congratulations…”
Chaos Moon: ”...”
……
I had already killed over twenty Star Rhinos, but they had only dropped magic stones and some trash Dark Steel and Silver–grade equipment so far. The game had advanced to such a stage that these items didn’t have much use, so they wouldn’t attract much attention.
Finally, after I had killed my twenty-seventh Star Rhino, the wailing beast finally dropped something that could catch my eye. A pair of azure gauntlets fell to the ground and when High Fighting Spirits picked them up, he couldn’t keep a grin off his face.
