Chapter 49 – Taking a shortcut

One of the warrior move forward and loot the corpse. It is a Silver grade dagger.

Fire Teeth Dagger (Silver)

Damage: 52-58

Agility +8

Strength +8

Level requirement: Lv10

Durability: 45/45

Special Effect: When attacking, 3% chance of triggering damage increase

Bai Song sigh. As expected of being the pioneer, the drop rate is so high. Bai Song does not know about other zones, but there is abosolutely no one else in Wind Sprout Village that have cleared any h.e.l.l stage dungeon.

Although this dagger is quite good and the damage from damage increase is slightly higher than the damage from crit, it is not as good as his current Earthworm Dagger. Though there is a chance for a crit to trigger when damage increase triggers as well.

[TL: well the author did not continue to explain so I be explaining. Earthworm dagger is better for Bai Song due to the extra instance of attack which will increase the probability for triggering Three Corpse Ring special effect.]

Although both are silver equipment, there are differences in their usefulness.

Base on the current progress of each of the guilds' elite party's level and equipments, if they do not have the correct strategy, they will not be able to clear Wind Sprout Village Imperial Palace Ruins Dungeon Fire Hounds this stage. Thus this should be the first time it is clear, hence despite the rarity of silver grade equipment, it is understandable that it drop.

For the second group of people who clear it, the drop rates will be much lower.

If they try to overpower the Imperial Palace Ruins dungeon mobs, even if the entire elite party level is raised by 5, they will not be able to clear it.

Actually let's not say about clearing it. No one knows if anyone have tried to clear it before as all of the attention is currently all on the Abandon Mines dungeon.

Ghost Island looks towards Bai Song quizzing, after all it is a silver equipment and they have agree to give Bai Song three of the equipment that they have looted. After Bai Song shakes his head to indicate that he does not want it, Ghost Island tosses it to one of the thieves to use.

On normal occasions, usually who obtain the loot will be based on rolling a dice, but that is only in an elite party. This current party members have not been properly pick. Although they have promise to work together, but there might be situations where the expert in the previous game becomes weak when they change over to another game.

After all is not the same as the games in the past. This is a epoch-making game, thus without experiencing large waves to remove the dregs, everyone in this party have a chance of being eliminated.

Furthermore, this is a commander that the guild have paid money to invite.

At this time, a thief is preparing to pull open the gate. His usual task is to check the traps and doors, but when Bai Song sees it he immediately calls out: "Quick stop."

"Ah?" The thief was stun stupid. Luckily his hand stop in time and did not pull the gate down.

Bai Song looks at him and is roughly able to guess his usual task, thus he did not blame him. Instead he points towards a direction and say: "There is a torch over there. Turn it a bit."

"Okay." The thief reply carefully. Normally he does not take part in the combat, luckily he is talented in spotting and checking, thus Ghost Island keeps him in the elite party.

He walks toward the direction of the torch that Bai Song pointed to and pulls on it. Seeing that it is unable to move and that there are two other torches in this direction, he looks towards Bai Song who nods to indicate to the thief to continue trying. The thief moves to the second torch and pulls it. This time round there is a reaction.

The originally even stone floor spit open and reveal a stone door. Bai Song personally walks over and pulls open the door. Under the gaze of the group of people, Bai Song walks through the door.

Walking pa.s.s the door is a small staircase. Bai Song walks down the staircase and soon he is able to clearly see the green light in front of him.

"It is exactly that one." Bai Song walks over. The green light is actually a mechanism lever. Bai Song grabs the lever and breaks it off.

~~Rumbling sounds….~~

At this time the crowd gaze is on the wall beside them where the sound is coming from. As the wall is splitting open slowly, Bai Song just nice walks up from underground too see it.

After the rumbling sounds have ended, at this time, a proper pathway have appear. Although the rocks in the pathway are not even, there are obvious traces that the pathway is artificial.

Spectral Fire is always beside Bai Song, at this time he looks towards Bai Song in shock. Spectral Fire opens his mouth wanting to ask a question, but after thinking for a while, he decided not to. Bai Song obviously notice Spectral Fire expression and knows he want to ask a question. But he pretended that he did not see.

This is a shortcut. If they uses the shortcut, it will be slightly easier but it is still quite tough.

[TL: how I wish all of the past MMORPG dungeons that I have played have shortcuts as well >.<>

Bai Song gives another command, making them return to the pond earlier and gather at least two more containers full of water. For those who are able to gather more water they are to gather as much as they could. After they are done, he will give another command.

"Let's go, remember to maintain the formation." Bai Song commands finally pulls the thoughts of the crowd back, even Ghost Dance is actually silently follow.

The pathway is very short, soon they see a large door that seems to lead to a chapel. But this chapel is very small and shabby. The group walks in and inside the dark chapel is only a person that looks like a priest.

When Bai Song sees him, under his command, the s.h.i.+eld bearer uses their s.h.i.+eld to ram him onto the ground. Follow on is the endless ferocious attacks. The priest health is rather thin, within moments he is dead.

After killing of the priest like person, the party did not relax, instead they increases they vigilance. After all this is a h.e.l.l stage dungeon and there is only one mob in this chapel.

Furthermore the commander urgently made them control him immediate. This is one of the methods of fighting BOSS, after all where on earth will there be a BOSS that can be killed with a few attacks?

Bai Song is speechless as he looks at the party who is in a guarding mode, thus he urges: "The s.h.i.+eld bearer at the front. You can loot the corpse already."

"Ah?" That s.h.i.+eld bearer is walks carefully towards the corpse with a face full of suspicion only to realise that there is no loot.

Bai Song really wanted to tell them that this is only an elite mob only. Earlier the reason why he ask them to be swift is because this mob is able to become invisible. The moment it become invisible, they will need to waste a lot of time.

This awkwardness did not last long. The moment when the preacher die, its corpse immediately exploded. Luckily everyone is standing far away from it thus they are not affected by it.

After the corpse exploded, a pathway appears. It is an arch door pathway. At the same time of the corpse exploding, it triggers the mechanism within the arch door cause large fire to appear on the entire pathway.

No one dares to doubt this mechanism damage. Even the strongest tank within this party might not be able to withstand it.

Everyone including Ghost Dance looks towards Bai Song. None of them realise that in their heart they have already acknowledge Bai Song ability to lead them.

Seeing that everyone is looking at him, Bai Song waves him hand and say: "Why are you looking at me… just not didn't I ask you guys to gather water. Well what are you waiting for… hurry and splashes the fire."

Saying finish Bai Song adds: "A few of the range members shall do it. The close range members save your water first."
