"Someone found the dungeon so soon?"
After looking at it for a while, he roughly figured out the dungeon's situation based on the information exchanged by the players.
This was a low-level dungeon called "Jungle Cave." It told the story of an underground kingdom of creatures in the forest near Moonlight Town. One day, the kingdom fell under the influence of the dark power of the demons and hunted the nearby hunters and caravans. The sheriff of Moonlight Town entrusted the players to kill the demons in the depths of the spider kingdom.
The quest started with the sheriff of Moonlight Town and required a series of quests before the dungeon could be opened.
Lin Xiao found the sheriff according to the guide and started the chain of quests. The first wave was to investigate the riot of forest spiders in the depths of Silvermoon Forest.
Normally, this was a quest that required a party to complete, but his magic damage was too high. His first Chain Lightning was an AoE attack. Even if the base damage was lower than a normal Level 2 Fireball, Chain Lightning could still hit six targets at the same time. In addition to the 200% additional magic damage, his damage output was very high.
First, he blessed himself with a Lightning Shield, pulled a dozen monsters together in one breath, and stunned and paralyzed them for six seconds with a wave of Lightning Field. Then he turned around and cast Chain Lightning.
Level 12 to 13 monsters had around 170 to 180 HP. A wave of Lightning Field could deal more than 120 damage. In addition to the small lightning that was shot out by the Lightning Shield, his talent gave him an additional + 5 Intelligence at Level 1. At Level 11, he had an additional 55 points of Intelligence. Including his normal leveling and basic stats, he now had 88 points of Intelligence.
The Lightning Shield's normal additional damage was Intelligence * 0.2. After the bonus, it was Intelligence * 0.6. 88 Intelligence was about 52 Spell Damage, which was quite considerable.
Basically, after pulling a wave of Lightning Field, these monsters were basically at critical HP. A Chain Lightning could harvest them.
Relying on this method of pulling monsters together, he leveled up before the quest was completed.
After spending almost two days, he finally completed the chain of quests and got the key to enter the dungeon.
The main reason why it took so long was that he couldn't help wasting time killing monsters and running. He was only Level 10 and didn't have a mount, so he had to rely on his legs to go everywhere.
At this time, he was Level 13. Although the dungeon required Level 15, he could enter at Level 13.
Jungle Cave was located in the depths of Silvermoon Forest. A light green door stood in an arch made of countless spider webs. Jungle spiders respawned at the door from time to time, but they were killed by nearby players as soon as they came out.
As the most popular Instance Dungeon, there were hundreds of players gathered here. All the players in the Regional Channel were in groups.
Looking at this lively scene, Lin Xiao had the illusion that he had returned to a game called World of Warcraft before he transmigrated.
Speaking of this game, other than the setting, many of the settings were similar to World of Warcraft. He wondered if the Paragon had played this game before.
He randomly chose a party from a bunch of parties and sent a request. After a few seconds, the other party asked three questions:
"What's his level? What's his class? What's his specialization?"
"Thirteenth level Lightning Specialist Mage."
"Lightning specialization?"
After a moment of silence, the other party said,
"Your level is a little low, but I can still fight you once. Let me say this first, if your magic damage isn't enough, I'll kick you out."
"Sure."
A party invitation was sent over. There were already four people in the party. Including him, there were five. There were two Mages, one Priest, and two Warriors.
Of the two Mages, one was an Elven Fire Mage, one was a Bearman Defense Warrior, one was a Tauren Weapon Warrior, and the Priest was a Human Holy Priest.
There were many races. There were no strong races, nor were there any non-mainstream races. Lin Xiao's Starsoul was also classified as a human, but it was super handsome.
After entering the dungeon, the first thing he saw was two large spiders hanging upside down under a tree. They were Level 16 Elite monsters with more than 800 HP. The Bearman Defense Warrior pulled out the hammer on his back and walked forward while saying,
"These two Door Gods are very strong. Wait for me to pull the aggro. We'll start fighting in three seconds. Be careful not to panic if you get caught in the net. Cast spells on the spot."
Ten seconds later, there was a loud bang in the cave. A thick bolt of lightning struck the spider on the left. The huge magic damage directly took away half of the Elite monster's HP. The monster immediately went OT. It let out a strange cry and threw off the main tank who was trying to wave his shield to pounce on him.
The Fire Mage on the side immediately followed up with a Flame Impact to control the monster. The Warrior tried to pull the aggro, but his damage output was insufficient. His taunt skill was also in cooldown. He could only watch as the Elite monster chased after Lin Xiao.
Fortunately, the monster only had less than a third of its HP left. A round of attacks quickly killed it.
After that, they all looked at him with surprise. The Mage was even more surprised and asked,
"Brother, is Lightning Specialization that powerful?"
He shook his head and said,
"This is because my talent bonus for Lightning Spells is too high. Of course, Lightning Specialization's damage output is also high."
"I'm regretting choosing Fire Specialization."
"You can change it later."
The team leader was very familiar with the dungeon. He led them to the Boss after killing the least amount of monsters. With his high damage output, they killed all the way to the end and killed the final Boss of the dungeon, a Demon Warlock.
There were no extra plots in the dungeon. After killing a total of five Bosses, they cleared the dungeon. They received a total of two blue equipment and more than 90 silver coins, almost one gold coin.
After coming out of the dungeon, he rejected the team leader's suggestion to continue. Instead, he went back to sell the items and bought some potions. He entered the dungeon alone. He wanted to solo it.
Previously, after analyzing the Elite monsters' attack power, HP, and terrain, he found that with his damage output, he had the foundation to solo it.
First, he used Lightning Shield to lure a large group of Elite monsters. During this period, he could continuously deal a lot of damage. Then, he used Lightning Field to control the field every ten seconds to save his life. A wave of Lightning Chain every two seconds. As long as he was not surrounded and killed, it was easy to clear a wave.
By soloing the dungeon, he had leveled up before clearing the dungeon.
Next, he could solo it once every hour or so. Each time, he could get about 11 or 12 pieces of blue equipment and five or six gold coins.
As his level increased, he became more proficient. His solo time was compressed, and he could solo it once every half an hour.
Six days later, he had reached level 20. The main reason was that his level exceeded the monsters in the dungeon by too much. He did not get much experience, but he did get a lot of money and equipment.
So, he no longer soloed, but led people to level up. Each person was one gold coin, and four people were an extra four gold coins.
This kind of unlimited farming lasted for almost a month. One batch of players after another were brought to Level 18 or 19 and graduated from Moonlight Town by him. He continued to stay here and farm until he had accumulated more than 5,000 gold coins before he stopped.
When other players of the same level only had a few gold coins, this was a considerable amount of money, enough for him to not lack money for a long time.
After all, although this world was like a game, it was not a real game. There was no such thing as a studio farming gold, and there was no way to spend money to buy gold. Everything had to be earned by oneself. Money was quite valuable and kept its value.
It was difficult to go anywhere without money. Whether it was leveling or learning skills, buying equipment, they all needed money. Spending a month and a half to stay here and grind for 5,000 gold coins was quite worth it in the long run.
Now that he had money, he naturally went to the Lightning Tower to learn all the remaining skills. In addition to leveling up his existing skills, he also learned two new skills, namely Lightning Impact and the AOE skill Thundercloud, which could only be learned at level 20.
[Level 1 Lightning Impact]: Condenses the power of lightning to strike a target, causing 450 points of direct lightning damage and stunning the target for two seconds. For the next 15 seconds, lightning damage is dealt every three seconds. The total damage is equal to the first strike.
Mana Consumption: 55. Instant cast. Cooldown: 15 seconds.
[Level 1 Thundercloud]: Summon a thundercloud with a range of 60 yards for 15 seconds, causing a maximum of 1,500 lightning damage to all enemies within range.
Mana Consumption: 112. Instant cast. Requires continuous casting.
At the same time, he maxed out both Enhanced Chain Lightning and Lightning Extension, consuming a total of eight Talent Points. The remaining three points were all placed on the new Talent, Lightning Spark. There was a total of five levels. Chain Lightning and Lightning Strike had a casting time of 0.1 per level. At max level, they could reduce the casting time by 0.5.
With enough money, he no longer had to worry about earning money. He spent a large sum of money to buy four 12-slot bags. After buying a full bottle of Mana Replenishing Water, he left the house and began his journey of killing monsters and leveling up.
To him, doing quests was too troublesome, especially when many of the quests did not require him to kill monsters. Instead, they required him to run errands and collect quest items. The drop rate of some quest items was extremely low.
Time passed unknowingly. Numerous players set out from one Novice Village after another and spread throughout the world. There were new discoveries in the World Channel every day. Dungeons and new maps were constantly being discovered.
After a lot of communication, acquaintances met, and everyone began to form groups. Many seniors in their third and fourth years established guilds in the main cities, gathering their classmates to form groups.
In the World Channel, Lin Xiao often saw some familiar messages about top academies establishing guilds, including Radiance Academy.
Three and a half years after he descended, Lin Xiao, who had reached Level 55, finally saw a message from his girlfriend on the World Channel. At this time, he had already arrived at a map called the Cursed Lands. It was filled with powerful Level 50 to 60 Undead monsters. He had been farming here for half a year.
The higher the level, the harder it was to level up. The experience required also increased. Even with his super high efficiency, he had only reached Level 55.
The endless farming of monsters almost made him sick. Coincidentally, he saw a message from his girlfriend. He simply stopped farming and went back to look for her.
While he was at it, he also learned some skills, learned a profession, and horsemanship. He also upgraded his equipment and so on.
Other than his current level, he could not compare to other players who were over Level 40. Many of his items had not been upgraded.
His current state was similar to a game where he farmed monsters. Other than his level, he had nothing else. However, in the game, level was everything. With a high level, everything else was easy to do. It was just a matter of time.
He opened a teleportation gate and directly teleported to the Lightning Tower. This was a teleportation skill that he learned at Level 30. He could directly teleport to the Lightning Tower. He learned all the skills he could learn in one go. After that, he learned two professions, Tailoring and Enchanting, which were the most common professions for Mages.
PS: After I finished coding, I felt that the two chapters today were a little strange. However, after careful inspection, I could not see what was strange or what needed to be changed.
The pace of this Dungeon was very fast. While the settings were thrown out in the first few chapters, the first ten years were quickly transitioned to open the door to the Outland as soon as possible.
