Chapter 207
The Howling Caves Begins
Only after entering this door would they be considered to have entered the Howling Caves dungeon.
The first ten-man dungeon was officially opened to them.
"You're the leader, choose the dungeon difficulty," Wander said.
"Choose Nightmare, choose Nightmare," Weilan Haifeng encouraged Lu Li.
The others were eager to try as well. Even Wander was full of expectations for Lu Li.
Not many people cared about how good Lu Li's PK skills were. Most people's impression of him came from the First Clear dungeon and solo boss fights that were broadcasted all over the world …
"Choose Nightmare, my ass." Lu Li was speechless. Perhaps the Deadmines had set a bad precedent. His teammates did not seem to fear the dungeon at all.
The Howling Caves was a ten-man dungeon with a total of four difficulties: Normal, Elite, Hard, and Nightmare. It could be said that it was the first dungeon that Dawnlight had designed for the players with a complete set of difficulties.
Although the Deadmines was difficult, the highest difficulty was only Hard.
If the Elite difficulty was 20% higher than the Normal difficulty and the Hard difficulty was 30% higher than the Elite difficulty, then the Nightmare difficulty was definitely not 40% or even 50% higher than everyone thought, but 100% higher.
What made everyone speechless was that all the bosses in the Nightmare difficulty had super overpowered AoE skills. Only the last two bosses in the other difficulty dungeons had such skills.
"Elite." Lu Li did not care about the others' looks of disdain and decisively chose the Elite difficulty.
"Sigh, Elite it is. Elite can also get First Clears," Wander tried to cheer everyone up and comforted them.
After entering the dungeon, everyone received a buff of + 5 to all attributes.
"Excuse me, why did I get 8 points?" Xiaoba Jiang really did not mean to show off. After all, everyone else got 5 points, but she got 8 points. It was really strange.
"Girl, you're the System's daughter. May I ask if you need a leg accessory?" Weilan Haifeng almost prostrated himself on the ground. You have no choice but to be convinced. The system will teach you how to behave.
"Ahem, Little Myna, why don't you help us find out the strategy for this dungeon …" Canmeng joked with her best friend.
"Give me two molds," Tsundere Flower tried to blend in with the group. It was rare for him to make a joke.
"Stop bullshitting. How did you add 8 points to all your attributes? Is it possible for everyone to add 8 points?" Moonlight interrupted them in a deep voice.
"I think I can explain it," Lu Li said in an uncertain tone after they finished discussing.
"Why?"
"Because Xiaoba Jiang is a druid," Lu Li explained. "The monsters in the Howling Caves are dominated by the sharp-toothed druids. They were once members of the Cenarion Circle, and their goal is to heal the wounds of the Barrenlands …"
"You mean they are good people? We're going to kill good people! "Xiaoba Jiang's eyes widened in surprise.
"Uh …" Lu Li choked and continued, "The Great Druid Navarax believed that he could use the underground fountain in the cave to restore the Barrenlands to fertile land. But to do so, he needed to absorb energy from the legendary Emerald Dream."
"And then?" Everyone suddenly remembered. Lu Li once said that he would spend his free time in the library.
"Of course it was a tragedy, but when Navarax had a nightmare, his enormous power changed the Howling Caves. The water became dirty, and the once gentle animals became vicious carnivores. Now Navarax is sleeping in his own nightmare, waiting for us to rescue him. "
"Fortunately, we're not going to be bad people," Xiaoba Jiang patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Li didn't laugh at her. Perhaps it was because of these pure thoughts that this little girl was favored by the intelligent NPC and became the darling of the quest. Was he a little too obsessed with this game?
"So …" Wander was helpless.
"We're not Druids. I'm afraid we won't enjoy the Druid's preferential treatment," Lu Li comforted her. "Actually, it's not much different. Everyone just relax."
"Yes. You're right. Everyone should work hard on the dungeon. "Wander nodded and quickly adjusted his emotions.
After a few steps inside, a few humanoid creatures walked towards them.
The main tank Weilan Haifeng immediately raised his shield and entered a state of alert. Lu Li quickly reached out and pulled him back.
"Don't be impulsive. They're not monsters."
"Not monsters?" Weilan Haifeng exclaimed in a low voice, "Those are Tauren!"
Tauren belonged to the Evil Faction. Well, the Evil Faction wasn't necessarily evil. It was just a faction name designed by the game company. According to the NPCs' own understanding and different lifestyles, they believed that they belonged to the Horde.
Since the Tauren belonged to the Horde, as players on the Alliance side, they were naturally enemies.
"Don't be silly. They're Tauren, but they're also Druids. Don't you see that the one behind is a Night Elf?" Lu Li was really afraid that his teammates would impulsively start a fight.
These three NPCs — two Tauren and one Night Elf — were actually believers of Navarax. Because they weren't corrupted by nightmares, their strength was very terrifying. If the players attacked them, it would be equivalent to choosing a party wipe.
Lu Li stepped forward and gave an elven greeting. "Cenarius above, how can I help you?"
"Oh, adventurers. May the sun shine on you." The leader of the three Tauren returned the greeting. He turned his head and shouted, "Abulu, this is your tribesman."
The Night Elf behind him walked forward. After some pleasantries, she began to issue a quest.
"… We must awaken him from his nightmare. Otherwise, he will be lost in it forever and continue to bring evil power to this land. However, only by killing his fallen servants can I perform the awakening ritual. Are you willing to lend a hand, my tribesman?"
System: Abulu of the Wailing Cave wants you to kill Poison Fang King Cobrian, Anacondra, Pythas, and Serpentis. Do you accept the quest?
Not only Lu Li, but the others also received the system notification. Without a doubt, everyone chose to accept the quest.
After that, Lu Li led everyone to talk to the other two NPCs and received two collection-type quests. One required ten pieces of mutated leather, and the other required them to collect five Serpent Flowers from the depths of the cave.
In order for the adventurers to complete the quest, the NPCs gave each of them five bottles of high-level antidote and five bottles of intermediate-level healing potions. Other parties might feel that this was good, but Lu Li and the others didn't lack these things at all. It was better than nothing.
There were many monsters along the way, ranging from level 18 to level 20. The EXP was not bad, but it was a pity that they didn't drop anything.
Weilan Haifeng was the main tank. He had good equipment and many skills. He took the lead and provided an excellent environment for everyone to deal damage. Occasionally, one or two monsters would break through the main tank's line of defense, but they couldn't escape the secondary tank Wander's obstruction.
It was great to have two tanks, and the others could deal damage as much as they wanted.
Sanyue Yu had to heal two people at the same time. It was a little difficult at first, but she quickly became more skillful. Xiaoba Jiang, who was originally arranged to help her, couldn't find a chance to heal, so she simply took on the role of damage output.
Anyway, her equipment was good, and after Lu Li's guidance, her technique had improved a little, so her damage output was quite impressive.
The first boss was not far from the entrance. Lu Li and the others quickly saw it — Poison Fang Anacondra, a female Night Elf, Acolyte, Druid. (To be continued.)
