Bai Xiaowen finally understood after listening to Old Devil's explanation. It seemed that Nie Kong was not a simple chuunibyou …
Soon, the selection of the 15 teams was completed.
Generally speaking, under the leadership of Li Beihai, the Guild Leader, when the Guild members chose the monster gathering spot, everything was harmonious. There were no situations where two parties would fight each other over a monster gathering spot that was easy to deal with.
"Let's go. Remember, contact me through the walkie-talkie if there's any danger. I'll be there to save you. "Li Beihai waved his hand.
The 15 off-road vehicles drove out of the city and headed toward the wilderness north of the base city.
They were going deep into the wilderness, which was more than 30 kilometers away. They could not bring ordinary people, so Bai Xiaowen had to drive himself since his driver's assistant was not around.
Let Li Beihai drive? He did not have the guts …
Looking at the young and invincible beauty Li in a white exercise suit sitting in the passenger seat, Bai Xiaowen couldn't help but feel a bit restless. However, Bai Xiaowen did not dare to act rashly because of the huge pressure coming from behind him.
"Master Tarzan, why are you following us …"
Bai Xiaowen complained and secretly complained about this super powerful light bulb.
If Li Beihai had not followed, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi would have driven around the wilderness in the off-road vehicle, enjoying the fun of driving, flirting with each other in the car, and killing monsters under the car … Just thinking about it was the peak of life.
Bai Xiaowen glanced at the quaint bracelet on his left wrist. The stone bead in the middle showed a smiley face.
This was the passive effect of the Prophecy of Misfortune, which came with the Dark Gold equipment, the Misfortune Bracelet. The smiley face meant that everything was calm and there was no danger.
Having just received the Misfortune Bracelet, Bai Xiaowen had to pay more attention to it and familiarize himself with the strength of the enemy monsters represented by each danger rating.
Along the way, they also encountered some wandering monsters. The cowardly monsters that ran away when they saw the off-road vehicle had escaped. As for the monsters that dared to stay and even attack the off-road vehicle, the only result was naturally death.
It was worth mentioning that Li Beihai did not make a move the entire time.
The jeep drove on and soon arrived at the Arachne Valley.
The Arachne Valley was mostly made of reddish-brown rocks. After the party of three walked into the valley, they could faintly smell a rotten stench. It was like the feet of a university dormitory that hadn't been washed for months.
Since they were in the wilderness, the three of them removed their illusions and revealed the true appearance of their equipment. Bai Xiaowen deliberately glanced at Li Beihai's style.
Bai Xiaowen was almost blinded by the flash. Li Beihai was dressed in heavy armor in the style of ancient Hua Xia generals. The red tassels on his head fluttered in the wind. Most importantly, he was holding a Western-style two-handed axe in his hand. Just by looking at its ferocious arc, one could tell that its attack power was extremely high.
"Guild Master, apart from the axe, the rest of your equipment looks very compatible," Bai Xiaowen said.
In comparison, Bai Xiaowen's style was a little strange. He wore a silver ring inlaid with agate on his head, looking like a western fantasy elf's crown. He wore an ancient Hua Xia Daoist robe woven with gold and silver threads. He held a spellbook in his left hand, a gun in his right, and a feather cloak in the style of a primitive tribe on his back …
Li Shuyi's style wasn't too perfect either. The Ghost Mist Veil and Snake Scale Armor didn't really match, but they weren't as well matched as Bai Xiaowen's. It was passable.
Li Beihai glanced at the true appearance of their equipment (after removing the illusions) and grunted, "I'm wearing a set."
"A set?" Bai Xiaowen repeated in surprise.
A set was a special equipment, just like "Black Growth-type Equipment". It wasn't included in the white, blue, gold, or dark gold equipment systems.
The quality of a set was green and it was made up of many parts.
In terms of attributes and additional skills, each set part was roughly equivalent to a gold equipment of the same difficulty level. If multiple set parts were collected, they would often produce special bonus effects. Some of the bonuses would be very powerful.
Any monster with a template could drop a green set part. In other words, it wasn't a fantasy to kill small monsters to drop sets. However, the drop rate …
In any case, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi had explored several spirit planes and never obtained a green set. Of course, Bai Xiaowen hadn't been an Awakened for more than a year. This was also one of the reasons.
"Guild Master, you're amazing," Bai Xiaowen praised sincerely. As the leader of a guild, he indeed had the strength and trump cards.
Li Beihai said, "I didn't collect all the sets myself. Set equipment usually has the characteristic of 'binding after equipping'. Of the three sets I'm wearing, one of them was bought. "
"You must have spent a lot of Psionic Points." The rarer something was, the more expensive it was. The drop rate of a set was so low that it was difficult to collect them all.
Li Beihai nodded. "Unfortunately, there are four sets of the Imperial Army Set. I still need a weapon to complete the set. I can only use this axe as a replacement. Fortunately, this axe is of the highest quality. It's quite handy. "
"It's already very good to be able to collect three sets." Once there were two or more pieces in the set, each additional piece meant an additional skill.
"Alright, let's stop chatting. This is the Spider Demon Valley. You guys be careful," Li Beihai said.
"Guild Master, aren't you going to do anything?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
"I'm already level 10. I've already reached the limit of my skills and proficiency. Killing monsters is of no use to me." Li Beihai shook his head. "You guys do it. I'll watch. If you encounter a big guy that you can't handle, I'll go."
Li Shuyi smiled. "Dad, don't worry. Xiaowen and I have killed more than one Level-8 boss in the Spirit Realm."
Li Beihai coughed. His face was slightly red. Fortunately, his skin was darker, so it was not obvious. He said vaguely, "You can kill a Level-8 boss … Well, almost as good as me … Well, what I mean is, you guys are not bad. You're almost as good as me."
Bai Xiaowen smiled. "Actually, Shuyi's words are not accurate. We can borrow power in the Spirit Realm, but we can't in the wilderness. Killing a Level-8 boss doesn't mean that we're as strong as Level-8 Awakened heroes. We still need the guild master's protection. "
Li Shuyi felt that Bai Xiaowen was wrong. When they killed Norton and Leona in the Blacktide Realm, they did not borrow power. They relied on their own strength. However, she was also very smart. She quickly understood why Bai Xiaowen said that. She understood and did not say much.
There was still a difference in strength between a high-level boss and a high-level Awakened hero (of the same level).
High-level bosses were strong because of their extra HP and percentage reduction of crowd control.
High-level Awakened were strong because their class skills were strengthened twice at Level 4 and Level 7. They also had the additional skills of their equipment. With the help of various items, their combat style was more flexible and flexible.
Bai Xiaowen was more willing to challenge a boss.
There was a rustling sound. Two light black Scourge Spider Demons crawled out of the reddish-brown cave.
The Calamity Spider Demons were larger than humans and had the general appearance of large spiders. However, the front half of their bodies resembled some kind of insect-like creature. They had no mouthparts, only large sharp jaws and forelimbs that resembled tree trunks.
Bai Xiaowen used Insight.
[Scourge Spider Demon (Level 5)]
[Race: Undead/Spider Demon]
[Attributes: STR 15, DEX 24, CON 16, WIL 6]
[Skill 1: Hunt: The Scourge Spider Demon uses its strong and powerful claws to grab the enemy. The barbs of the claws will pierce into the enemy's flesh, making it impossible for them to break free. The target must pass a Strength Test. Otherwise, they will be unable to move and will suffer continuous light bleeding damage.]
[Skill 2: Plague Bite: The Scourge Spider Demon bites the target, infecting them with scourge poison. The poison effect can be stacked.]
It had been a long time since he had met such a noob opponent.
Bai Xiaowen waved his hand. A row of summoned creatures appeared and swallowed the two Scourge Spider Demons in front of him.
However, one of the Skeletal Shieldbearers touched the Calamity Spider egg beside it. Soon, the egg exploded. A group of small spiders pounced on Bai Xiaowen's summoned creatures.
"Be careful. Although these small spiders don't have high attack power, they can still poison people. It will be uncomfortable if they stack too many of them," Li Beihai advised from behind. He was much more experienced than Bai Xiaowen and the other two.
In fact, there was no need for Li Beihai to say anything. Bai Xiaowen had already spent 10 Psionic Points and used Insight on the small spiders.
[Scourge Spider Demon (No Level)]
[Race: Undead/Spider Demon]
[Attributes: Strength 1, Agility 3, Physique 1, Spirit 1]
[Skill 1: Plague Bite: Omitted]
"That's all there is to it. It's weaker than the plague rats in the buffer zone. It's about the same as a mutated cockroach …"
Bai Xiaowen used Telepathy to control Fatty to charge at the Scourge Spider Demon.
These small spiders did not seem to have much intelligence. They pounced on their moving targets and bit them. After a few bites, Fatty's Blood of Corruption stacked five times.
The thick Blood of Corruption turned into a poisonous fog. The small spiders were killed before they could even get close.
Bai Xiaowen controlled Fatty to open a path. Along the way, he stepped on countless spider egg sacs. Crackling sounds could be heard. Groups of Scourge Spiders broke out of their shells and were poisoned to death by Fatty's poisonous fog.
Li Beihai was a little stunned. These small spiders were not worth mentioning individually, but they were good in groups. Once they crawled all over their bodies and the poison stacked high, even the strongest Awakened would not be able to withstand it. Therefore, they were very difficult to deal with.
Under normal circumstances, an Awakened who was good at AoE attacks would be in the team. After luring out a group of small spiders, the Awakened would use their AoE skills to quickly clear them out. Then, after the cooldown was over, the Awakened would attack again.
However, in front of Bai Xiaowen's Undead Monster, the group of small spiders could not withstand a single blow. The Undead Monster's AoE damage was continuous and mobile!
Li Beihai fell into deep thought.
While Bai Xiaowen was clearing out the Undead Monster, he was also paying attention to the Bracelet of Misfortune on his wrist.
After entering Spider Demon Valley, the smiley face on the Bracelet of Misfortune had not changed. This meant that there was no threat.
Suddenly, the picture on the bracelet changed. It changed from a smiley face to an expressionless face.
"Mild threat."
Bai Xiaowen immediately narrowed the range of his mental scan. He immediately sensed the movement of a foreign object in front of him! He raised his head. Under his mental scan, he saw a faint shadow dragging a strand of spider silk falling from the steep rocks and pouncing towards Bai Xiaowen.
This was an elite-level Spider Demon. Compared to ordinary Spider Demons, apart from having stronger attributes, it also had an additional "Silk Binding" skill.
[Web: The Spider Demon continuously spits out highly viscous spider silk in an attempt to bind a target. The target's movement speed will continuously decrease. When the target's movement speed drops to zero, the target will be imprisoned within the silk cocoon. The silk cocoon has (60) points of durability (equivalent to HP in this case) and can be destroyed.]
Bai Xiaowen immediately drew his gun. Bang!
This Level 6 Elite Calamity Spider Demon exploded into a puddle of putrid pus.
The Desert Eagle's headshot, the penetrating blow, and Absolon's Blood Essence Stone had a 100% chance of triggering Bloodlust's "First Blood" effect. It was difficult for the Spider Demon to survive.
A faint layer of bloody light appeared on the surface of Bai Xiaowen's body. This was the Blood Essence Stone's "Brutality" effect that increased his critical strike rate by 10%.
Li Beihai: "…"
"Be careful. We've already entered the heart of the Spider Demon Valley. There will probably be more Elite monsters appearing. Don't get hit by their spider silk, "Bai Xiaowen reminded. It would be quite troublesome if the Spider Demon was trapped by the Web skill.
Rustling sounds could be heard. More Elite Spider Demons emerged from the caves and cliffs, pouncing towards Bai Xiaowen and Absolon.
Li Shuyi drew both his swords and activated Savage Charge. He crashed into the first Spider Demon. Stabbing with both swords, he quickly followed up with Triple Slash! Her two passive stacks quickly reached five stacks.
The Elite Spider Demon stretched out its forelimbs in an attempt to grab her. Li Shuyi sidestepped and dodged the attack. Then, he stabbed again.
Vital Strike! Critical Strike!
Li Shuyi could dodge the Elite Spider Demon's skill, but the Spider Demon couldn't dodge Li Shuyi's stab. In addition to the suppression brought by Li Shuyi's high Dexterity, there was also the suppression from his combat specialty.
Although the Elite Spider Demon's level was one level higher than Li Shuyi's, in terms of Dexterity, it was inferior to Li Shuyi's luxuriously equipped equipment. After Li Shuyi's Dexterity was stacked to a certain level, it was even higher than that of a high-level Awakened.
Li Shuyi's specialty was swordsmanship. After being taught by the Kingdom of Camelo's royal court swordsmanship instructor, the female Elven Swordsman Ona, she had reached Level 7! Although this special number didn't bring about any improvement, Li Shuyi could clearly feel that her understanding of one-handed swordsmanship had reached a new level.
Chi chi!
The two Elite Spider Demons spat out spider silk and used the Web Entanglement skill on Li Shuyi.
Bai Xiaowen didn't move. Instead, an awe-inspiring pressure spread out. It was an area-of-effect control skill, Deterrence! Suddenly, the four Elite Spider Demons besieging the two of them fell into a state of Fear.
Bai Xiaowen raised his gun and began to take out their targets one by one.
