Chapitre 33: Abyss Mode
Éditeur: Henyee Translations
"Abyss Mode?" Red Moon was very surprised. "Are you really sure?"
"Let me go first and try." Li Huailin smiled, he wasn't afraid to die. He actually hoped that the Abyss Mode was extremely hard, it was so that it would be easier for him to die in the future. Because the dungeon wasn't far away from the respawn point. With his movement speed, Li Huailin should be able to come back within 10 to 15 minutes. The faster he dies there, the better it would be.
"Yeah! Brother-in-law is taking us to Abyss Mode!" It seemed that Red Face Drinks Water had no idea on how hard Abyss Mode was judging from how happy she said this. Currently, their guild couldn't even pass Normal Mode, not to mention the harder difficulties; Hell Mode and Abyss Mode. However, she believed that it was going to be fun.
"Abyss Mode?"
Because Red Face Drinks Water was being too loud, her exclamation drew the attention of the other parties who were waiting to enter the dungeon. The surrounding people had all turned around to look at them.
"Did she just say something about passing Abyss Mode?" A warrior player laughed aloud and said to them, "That's so funny! So far, no one has even passed Hell Mode. And yet, you're thinking of passing Abyss Mode already?"
"You! I'm telling you! My brother-in-law, he…"
Red Face Drinks Water was just about to start an argument, she was quickly stopped by Red Moon as soon as she took a step forward.
"Little Water, don't cause trouble," Red Moon said in a serious tone.
"Leader, they…" Red Face Drinks Water tried to reason out, the moment when she saw Red Moon's face, she knew that she had to stop. While feeling frustrated, she walked to Li Huailin and said, "Brother-in-law! They just bullied me, are you sure that we can pass Abyss Mode? We really have to! I want to make them mad!"
"How would I know? We haven't checked it yet." Li Huailin shrugged his shoulders and continued, "Shall we go in and take a look?"
"Are you sure?" Red Dust Misty Rain also came and asked him.
"Didn't you see it? I didn't lose any health points in Normal Mode. I think there must be a limit for the difficulty in Abyss Mode. I think the chances of succeeding is around 50%," Li Huailin reassured them.
"That isn't bad at all." Leader Red Moon nodded. "We have six people here but only five are allowed to enter. I should…"
"I'm not going," Red Bloodstain, who patted on Red Moon's shoulder, piped up. "Since you're the leader. You have to be in there with them. I also need to go back to the main city."
"I see…" Red Moon gave some thoughts to it before finally agreeing. As the guild's leader, she had the responsibility to go through something like this, she then nodded at Red Bloodstain. Because they were old friends, many words could be saved through gestures alone.
"You're going back to the main city?" Once Li Huailin heard this, he came up to Bloodstain. "Can you do me a favor? Please take these potions to the auction house. You decide the price."
Li Huailin handed all of the Fountain of Life Potions he had to Red Bloodstain.
"You don't need them?" Red Bloodstain asked.
"Not really, I don't need these potions. If I'm gonna die in there, then these potions won't be able to save my life," Li Huailin showed his appreciation. "Thanks a lot."
"Our new member is so arrogant. Now he's asking me, the deputy leader of the guild, to do him a favor." Red Bloodstain joked. "You guys should enter the dungeon now. I'm going to leave. Ah! Give me the recipes so I can save them in the bank, just in case you'll die in the dungeon and lose them."
Red Dust Misty Rain agreed with this and gave the recipes to Red Bloodstain.
After Red Bloodstain left the party, Li Huailin joined in her place.
"Let's go!" Red Moon said.
"Wow!"
Just before Red Moon chose Abyss Mode, Red Face Drinks Water suddenly exclaimed aloud, it startled Red Moon.
"Little Water? What happened?" Red Moon turned around in confusion, she stared at Red Face Drinks Water who was making such a fuss.
"Sister Moon, look at my brother-in-law's level!" Red Face Drinks Water jumped up and exclaimed further.
When Red Moon did as Red Face Drinks Water said, she saw that the party information showed that Open-Minded Like A Forest was Level 15.
Red Moon doubted her eyes for a moment, she checked it one more time and confirmed that he was indeed Level 15.
"How did you level up so fast?"
Red Moon recalled that Li Huailin was only Level 12 this morning. But now, he was 3 levels higher.
"Oh?" Li Huailin didn't realize it until Red Moon pointed it out. It seemed that his leveling speed had indeed sped up. He couldn't help and remember the health potions that he wasted.
Just as Li Huailin was pondering on how to explain it. At the same time, Red Dust Misty Rain spoke up, "Isn't it obvious? He said that he got those recipes by completing a hidden mission. I suppose the experience given by it is probably a lot."
"That's right! My Little Misty is so smart." Li Huailin was thankful for this explanation. It was such a good reason for his sudden jump in levels.
"You…!" When Red Dust Misty Rain heard the words, "My Little Misty" come out from Li Huailin's mouth, she found it rather offensive. However, since she knew that Li Huailin did this on purpose, she decided to ignore him.
"With so much experience given, the hidden quest must've been quite difficult," Red Moon said in a slightly envious tone. Because Red Moon had never come across a hidden quest so far, she didn't know how much experience would be rewarded in such a mission.
"I'm quite lucky in coming across hidden quests. I've already triggered three of them. If there's more in the future, I'll inform you gals so that we can do it together," Li Huailin said.
"Three?" Both Red Dust Misty Rain and Red Moon were very surprised. "You've triggered three hidden quests?"
"Yeah. I accepted two hidden quests in the newbie village. The quest I triggered recently is the third one," Li Huailin continued after some thought.
"You completed all of them?" Red Moon exclaimed in astonishment. "No wonder your stats are so impressive."
"Haha, that's right." Li Huailin scratched his head. This accidentally explained his character's status as well.
"This pervert has such good luck," Red Dust Misty Rain murmured in a low voice.
"You know nothing," Li Huailin smiled and said. "Some people find ways to make NPCs give them a hidden quest and fail. As for me, those NPCs will have to kneel down and beg me to accept their hidden requests. This is the difference… "
"Show off," Red Dust Misty Rain grumbled.
"Okay! The both of you should stop quarrelling." Red Moon rubbed her forehead. "It's one's fate to find hidden requests or not. We'll talk about it later when there's a chance. Let's go into the dungeon first, I need to do grocery shopping and cook a meal later."
After Red Moon chose Abyss Mode on the difficulty, the party went inside.
"This is Abyss Mode? I don't really see much difference." Red Face Drinks Water watched the surroundings before making this comment. It seemed that Abyss Mode and Normal Mode looked the same. The only difference they found so far was that the first group of monsters near the entrance were all Level 20, they were 5 levels higher than in Normal Mode.
"You ladies should stay here. It's best if I go alone and try out the monsters first," Li Huailin said.
"What if you die?" Red Moon asked him.
"Then… all of you should leave the dungeon," Li Huailin responded.
"Okay." Red Moon nodded in agreement with his plan. She knew that Li Huailin was the only reason why they entered Abyss Mode in the first place. If Li Huailin died, there was no point in struggling.
After targeting the three snakes, two greens and a single red, Li Huailin charged out. Since he just experienced these snakes a while ago, he still remembered how much damage they could do.
-30. -19. -17. +25. +25. +25.
This time, Li Huailin decided to let the monsters attack him first. As expected, the monster's damage had increased to a new level at the very first round. Although Li Huailin was now 3 levels higher and his stats had improved, the damage these monsters caused him was doubled.
-29.-25(Critical Hit).-13. +50. +50. +50.
When the monsters launched the second round of attack, Li Huailin suddenly had an idea in his mind. Then, he realized something as he looked at his own status bar.
Level 1 Venom: Receive 25 Health Points every 5 seconds, continues for 30 seconds, 5 maximum stacks.
The damage caused by viper venom remained the same, but the number of stacks for the poison had been increased. Back in Normal Mode, it could only go up to 3.
He immediately dragged the snakes along and started sprinting out.
"What happened? You can't beat them?" Red Moon asked as she watched Li Huailin escape from the entrance.
"No! I have an excellent idea! Let's all leave the dungeon first!" Li Huailin shouted while running.
