Autumn Goose and the others were at a loss for words as they looked at the corpses littering the ground and their rapidly rising experience bars.
Several hundred Level 42 Elites and three Level 42 Chieftains … Even a 100-man team of Level 40 elite players would have a hard time dealing with these monsters. Yet, with just a dozen or so players, they had accomplished the task effortlessly …
Although they had long since known that there was a gap between them and Zero Wing's members, they had understood it the moment they had met them.
However, when they saw the speed at which Zero Wing's members cleared the monsters, they realized the gap between them once more.
"Grinding monsters and leveling like this is amazing. It would be great if we could do this every day," Blue Bamboo could not help but sigh ruefully as she looked at her rapidly rising experience bars.
Originally, it would have taken them over two hours to grind. Now, however, they had completed the task in less than a minute.
Their leveling speed was even faster than riding a rocket.
Moreover, their earning speed was simply ridiculous.
In less than a minute, these abyssal monsters had dropped six pieces of equipment.
Nowadays, the higher the level of monsters in God's Domain, the lower the chances of them dropping equipment. Previously, they had killed quite a few Level 40 monsters. Even Level 40 Elite monsters rarely dropped equipment. Only Level 40 Chieftains would drop equipment. Moreover, they would only drop one or two pieces.
Of the six pieces of equipment, four were Level 40 Bronze Equipment, while the other two were Level 40 Mysterious-Iron Equipment. Although they were not top-tier equipment, they could still sell for a lot of money on the market. Even if everyone split the money, they would still earn more than an ordinary player could earn in a day.
As for the equipment the abyssal monsters dropped, Shi Feng had originally planned to split the loot equally. However, Autumn Goose and the others had rejected the offer. After all, they had not done anything to help out. They were not members of Zero Wing. Just the fact that they could earn so much EXP was enough to make them feel guilty. Meanwhile, Thoughtful Rain and Blue Bamboo had also rejected the offer. In the end, Aqua Rose had no choice but to store the loot in the Guild Warehouse.
"Fire Dance, Flying Shadow, Northern Wind. The three of you will lure the monsters. We'll clear out the monsters in the periphery first. Afterward, we'll enter the city, "Shi Feng commanded after collecting the loot.
In the Abyss Battlefield, if one wished to grind in a fallen city, one had to clear out the monsters in the periphery first. If one did not clear out the minions in the periphery and entered the city, a single roar from a Boss-level monster might very well attract all the minions in the periphery. At that time, one would be surrounded by enemies from all sides and die easily.
Hence, one had to clear out the monsters in the periphery first.
Moreover, in the Abyss Battlefield, the respawn rate of monsters in towns and cities was extremely slow. Hence, there was no need to worry about not being able to kill all the monsters.
Under the aggro of the speed-type Fire Dance, Flying Shadow, and Minor Wind, the surrounding monsters were lured to Cola and the others, wave after wave.
Once Cola and the others had established their aggro on the Skeleton Captains, Shi Feng activated Firestorm. The other players with AOE Skills also used their Skills, clearing out the Skeleton Warriors. Afterward, they would deal with the Chieftain ranked Skeleton Captains.
They cleared the monsters at a rate of one wave every five minutes. At the same time, everyone's experience bars rose steadily.
After three hours or so, Autumn Goose and the others' bags had risen to Level 35, while Blue Bamboo had risen to Level 36. Their leveling speed was so fast that they felt as if they were dreaming.
"This leveling speed is simply too fast. My level has already caught up to the Boss," Gunfire could not help his astonishment as he looked at his own level.
Autumn Goose and Death Wind could not help but sigh ruefully.
At their levels, it was normal for even experts to spend two or three days leveling up once. After all, a day in God's Domain lasted 48 hours. Now, however, they only needed three hours to level up. Yet, it had happened.
To Zero Wing's members, the monsters in the periphery posed no threat at all.
Finally, after more than nine hours, they cleared out the abyssal monsters on the northern edge of South Lake City. Meanwhile, Thoughtful Rain and the others had reached Level 37, while Fire Dance and Aqua Rose had finally reached Level 39. Shi Feng's experience bar had also reached 81% of Level 39. He was only 19% away from the Level 40 threshold.
After clearing out the abyssal monsters on the northern edge, Shi Feng led his team deeper into the city.
Compared to the area outside South Lake City's walls, the city's interior was much more dangerous.
Abyssal monsters were divided into ranks, and the lowest-ranked abyssal monsters generally lived in the city's outer perimeter. The deeper one ventured into the city, the higher the monsters' ranks and strength would be.
Upon entering the city, the density of abyssal monsters decreased significantly. However, Skeleton Warriors roamed the city's streets.
[Skeleton Warrior] (Undead, Special Elite) Level 42 HP 550,000/550,000
Aside from the Skeleton Warriors, there were also a large number of Skeleton Captains.
Even a Level 40, 100-man elite team would have to be extremely careful here. If they made a mistake, they would have to face the combined attacks of over a hundred Skeleton Warriors and seven or eight Skeleton Captains.
However, to Zero Wing's members, this was not a big deal. They could easily grind here if they wanted to.
However, Shi Feng's main goal in coming here was not to level up, but to kill a Great Lord. Hence, his main goal was to search for the abyssal monsters.
"I found a Great Lord here!" Flying Shadow, who was currently in Stealth, reported in the team chat. "The location is in the plaza. However, someone is already dealing with that Great Lord."
"Who is it?" Shi Feng could not help his surprise.
The others were similarly confused when they heard Shi Feng's report.
What kind of place was South Lake City? It was far more dangerous than a town. Even a Level 40, 100-man elite team would have to tread carefully here. Moreover, they had spent so much time and effort to reach the city's inner region, yet someone had already started killing the Great Lord …
"There are quite a few of them. They're a 100-man team, and all of them are wearing Guild Emblems. They should be the main force of a certain Guild," Flying Shadow said as he observed the team. "Even the lowest-leveled player among them is Level 34, while their commander is Level 36. They've already taken away one-third of the Great Lord's HP, and the team hasn't suffered a single casualty yet."
When everyone heard Fei Ying's explanation, they had a general understanding of this 100-man team.
Field Great Lords were different from Dungeon Great Lords. Field Great Lords were much stronger than Dungeon Great Lords. Their only downside was their lower HP. The fact that they had managed to take one-third of a Level 40-plus Great Lord's HP without suffering a single casualty showed that they possessed extraordinary strength.
"Wait a moment. I'll send you the video." Flying Shadow then opened the recorded video and shared it with his team. "I've never seen this Guild Emblem before, so it shouldn't be a Guild from Star-Moon Kingdom. However, the fact that it managed to suppress this Great Lord to such a degree means that it's not an ordinary Guild."
After everyone received the video, they quickly opened the livestream.
In the video, the corpses of abyssal monsters littered the vast fountain plaza. Meanwhile, a group of players fought a Skeleton Giant that was over ten meters tall. The Skeleton Giant wore thick, black armor and wielded a massive battle axe.
[Skeleton General] (Undead, Great Lord) Level 43 HP 18,000,000/18,000,000
The Skeleton General brandished its battle axe in a frenzy. A casual swing of its axe could shatter the ground. However, these players had excellent teamwork. The MTs were always able to lure the Skeleton General's attacks to an isolated location. Meanwhile, the healers and ranged players at the rear were able to respond to the Skeleton General's attacks in the most timely manner. As a result, the Skeleton General's HP gradually decreased.
"This is interesting. I didn't expect to meet them here." Shi Feng could not help but smile when he saw the players in the video.
