How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hem, but we have no interest in the treasure you're talking about."

With Mrs. Maria's surprised gaze, we left the house directly. After walking a long way, we could still seem to hear Hem's angry voice behind us.

"You will regret it! You will definitely regret it!"

Dragon Breath Forest.

This is a forest southeast of Fort Churo, covering thousands of square kilometers and located next to an active volcano called Florence.

There are countless fierce and powerful monsters active in the Dragon's Breath Forest. Their levels range from about level 70 to 90. They all have high fire damage and can pose a great threat to players.

At this stage, no one dares to infiltrate the depths of the forest. It is said that there are monsters as high as hundreds of levels hidden there, and even traces of giant dragons have appeared.

This caused many players who were eager to find treasure ruins inside to hesitate. This is also a famous dangerous place in the Lance area in the east of the Orwin Empire.

The ancient forest wakes up with the clear and melodious sound of birdsong, and the falling dewdrops reveal the fragrance of the earth.

The gentle sound of small animals stepping on the grass, the mottled sunlight casting through the treetops, and the breeze blowing through the woods play beautiful forest music. Amid the light syllables, you can faintly hear the roar of the rapids in the Red Cloud Canyon in the distance.

Because when we left Mrs. Maria's house yesterday, it was already evening.

After a brief discussion, we decided to go online the next day to continue exploring the Dragon's Breath Forest mentioned in the mission. Of course, this time point should be after we finished our morning classes.

"There's been more and more homework lately."

Thinking of the huge pile of exercise books on the desk in the dormitory, I couldn't help but sigh.

Because it is close to the end of the semester and there are upcoming final exams, the academic pressure has been quite high recently.

Qiu Li, who was standing next to her, smiled and said, "If you have any questions, you can come to the student union to find me."

But soon she seemed to think of something, glanced at the hookah in front of her, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the other party didn't notice it.

But what she didn't expect was that Shi Yan was actually paying attention to this place secretly. Her thoughts immediately became active after hearing this -

Since Qiu Li said so, it seems that Xiaotong is really a student of Shengcheng School as they guessed, and must be from Chengde campus. After returning, she can look for the list with Duolan and Shanhu.

Although she thought so, the expression on Shiyan's face did not change from beginning to end.

The three people, each with their own thoughts, slowly explored the forest.

Of course, they were not like headless flies, exploring aimlessly and meaninglessly. After being in the hands of Madam Maria, the pattern on the memory crystal was like a compass. They could find the past according to the direction of the pointer.

With a clear direction, there is no need to wander around like a headless fly in this vast and dangerous forest.

And since it was specifically mentioned by Lady Maria, the direction indicated by this memory crystal must be correct.

I don't know if it was luck or something else, but I didn't encounter any danger along the way. They were just ordinary monsters that I could easily deal with, and their levels were around level 80.

At this stage, the mainstream levels of players are between 67 and 70, and the highest has reached level 72.

The levels of my sister Shuiyan, sister Qiuli and I are naturally not far behind, we are all level 71, so these monsters that are not in groups naturally cannot pose any threat.

Breathing the fresh air in the forest, I suddenly thought of something and summoned Ahri out.

After getting enough rest these days, Ahri has fully recovered. It seems that he has been bored in the pet space for a long time. As soon as he came out, he seemed particularly excited. He kept circling around me, wasting his abundant energy.

I rubbed Ali's cute little head and fed him a rainbow crystal, which made this "ADHD child" calm down.

But just when I was playing with Ali.

Sister Shisha, who was walking in front, suddenly encountered a situation.

Lala——

With a horrible noise, the ground where Shi Yan stepped suddenly shook violently, and a huge crack appeared under her feet, tearing the ground apart.

Shisha reacted quickly, rolling to one side to avoid the danger of falling into the crack in the ground. After stabilizing her body, she immediately adopted a defensive posture and raised the huge shield in her hand.

She was right. Many monsters hiding underground liked to attack in a similar way.

After the ground was torn apart, more than ten pieces of flaming debris flew out, but were blocked by the hookah in advance, so not much damage was caused.

And from the cracks, magma burning with blazing flames erupted, splashing up to a height of two or three yards.

Three monsters covered with dark brown rock scales poked their heads out from the lava, with flames billowing beneath them.

Fiery Magma Monster [Special Elite]: Level 88, HP: 55000/55000

Chapter 53: Meeting with the Storm

“It looks like we’ve won the lottery.”

Qiu Li smiled slightly, raised the staff in his hand and added the effect of arcane barrier to the whole team, improving defense while increasing spell damage, making preparations for the battle.

Just as she said, we did win the prize.

Special elites are just like special bosses, and are a more powerful level than elites. If ordinary elites can be dealt with by four or five ordinary players, then special elites may require one or two times as many people.

The strength improved by demonization is stronger than that by demonization. After all, demonization is still an improvement on the original basis, while the word "special" may have produced a qualitative change.

The three special elites are even comparable to bosses of the same level in overall strength, only slightly inferior at most.

And this is a magma monster. After clarifying the next step of the task, we found a lot of information related to the Dragon's Breath Forest, of course, including various known monsters.

The magma monster is a very powerful beast among the many monsters. It mainly lives around volcanoes and occasionally appears on the outskirts of the forest. Just as its name and appearance suggest, it has powerful fire output methods.

Like right now.

As soon as it landed, the three-headed flaming magma monster roared and spewed out scorching fireballs at Sister Shuiyan.

If other teams encounter this, they may have to flee in panic. After all, even with all their strength, they can probably only deal with one Flame Magma Monster at best.

But unfortunately, these three guys met us.

When Sister Qiu Li immediately prepared for battle and added arcane group buff to the team.

I also reacted, called out to the side, and quickly chanted the dark magic control type skills,

"Ahri."

"YoYo!"

Ahri responded to me with a childish cry, swallowed the remaining rainbow crystal whole, and controlled her own moonlight power, condensing it into a torrent of cold current that attacked the three-headed magma monster.

The cold frost not only caused thousands of damages to these monsters, but also covered their bodies with a thick layer of ice. The flames beneath their bodies tended to dim, greatly slowing down their movement speed.

At the same time, this cold current caused damage to the monster before it could.

An ice-blue light enveloped Shihaha's body as Ahri's will indicated.

[Frost Armor]: Defense increased by +10%, constant resistance to 300 fire and frost damage, lasts for 5 minutes.

Before encountering the magma monster, Shisha had already drunk the high-level fire resistance potion and activated the shield warrior's rare skill, Flame Baptism, which further increased her fire resistance.

At this moment, there is also the Frost Armor cast by Ahri.

Although the three fireballs, as big as footballs, came with great force, they hit the shield of the hookah and produced dazzling flames.

The total damage was less than 1500, which is a drop in the bucket compared to the health of the hookah, and it is also an insignificant impact.

After blocking the first wave of attacks from the magma monster, Shisha immediately opened a solid shield wall.

A barrier about five yards wide suddenly appeared in front of the team. It was much wider than the shield warrior in Meng Yi's team before, which was obviously due to the skill level.

The combined overall strength of these three special elites is comparable to that of the boss.

In the end, individual attacks are inferior.

As for Shisha, it can be said that she is worthy of being one of the top ten shield warriors in the empire. She is observing and predicting the subsequent attacks of the magma monster.

By taking advantage of protective movement and adjusting the body to change the direction of the shield wall, he was able to stop the magma monster's steps. At the same time, he was only attacked by two magma monsters at most, which reduced the pressure on defense.

Although there is no priest in the team, we cannot forget Ahri's auxiliary ability.

A ball of green light surrounded the hookah and gathered into a special halo under it, constantly raising the hookah's health.

It looks like an ordinary team of three people with one warrior and two mages, but in fact it has all the necessary functions.

Sister Shuiyan was in the front to take the damage, while Sister Qiuli and I were doing the output in the back, and Ahri was responsible for the output, treatment and assistance.

During the fierce battle, Shuiyan and Qiu Li couldn't help but cast their glances.

Although they had seen Ahri before, they could never have imagined that this cute pet that looked like a mascot was actually so powerful, and its auxiliary capabilities need not be explained.

In terms of damage, it accounts for 80% of the team's total output.

During the battle, they also summoned their own pets. Qiu Li summoned the Thunder White Tiger, and Shuiyan summoned the Fiery Snake Dragon. Although they could not be compared with Ahri, they were much stronger than those ordinary pets.

boom--

The dazzling ice crystals, accompanied by a strong storm, formed sharp giant thorns that smashed the head of one of the fiery magma monsters, and liquid like magma splashed out.

Under Ahri's icy thorns, the magma monster finally took away its last bit of blood. The originally solid black-brown scales suddenly softened like mud in water and turned into debris on the ground.

After destroying one of the magma monsters.

The remaining two magma monsters naturally posed no threat and fell one after another under the attack of the three people and three beasts, exploding a pile of materials, equipment and other spoils, bringing the battle that lasted no more than eight or nine minutes to an end.

"call."

We couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. We had originally thought that these special elites would have some abilities before they died, but it turned out that we were just overthinking.

But just as we put away our weapons.

Suddenly, three different attacks came from nowhere, wind blades, fireballs, and thunder, hitting the place where the last magma monster had just fallen.

The time from the magma beast falling to the attack was no more than 2 seconds.

I immediately became alert and asked Ahri to help me put away the equipment with telekinesis.

An ability I just discovered some time ago.

Sister Shuiyan and Sister Qiuli also assumed fighting stances again and turned around to look.

We saw more than 200 players coming over from about dozens of meters behind us. They looked like a group. Among them, three mages had just put down their scepters and looked very surprised. It was obvious that the attack just now was launched by them.

But my eyes were not on them, but on the leading soldier.

The black armor carved with a wolf's head, coupled with his tall stature, looked from afar like an awakened beast revealing a ferocious aura, and the heavy sword in his hand was like the sharpest teeth of the beast, reflecting the cold light that made people feel timid at a glance.

The legendary armor [Wolf King Overlord] and the legendary weapon [Blade of Slodic], the brilliance of the two legendary equipment obviously revealed the opponent's identity, the Empire's first warrior, the president of the Storm Guild - Black King Caesar.

Although Shisha's expression didn't change much, she secretly tightened the shield in front of her.

Qiu Li standing next to them was looking curiously. She didn't know yet about the special relationship between Rose Heart and Storm, or more precisely, the special relationship between the two presidents.

Chapter 54 News about Ancient Relics

As we cast our gaze.

Black King Caesar also cast his gaze, but the first thing he saw was the remains of the three-headed magma monster lying on the ground. Then he cast his gaze to the several figures on the other side with a look of slight surprise.

Of course he recognized this kind of monster, a special elite of level 88. Even if it was the elite group of their Storm, it would probably take about people to deal with it.

What surprised Black King Caesar was that the three people in front of him were actually able to deal with three special elites. Their strength was undoubtedly terrifying, and even in the entire Storm, they could be ranked at the forefront.

"what."

When the Black King Caesar's eyes fell on the team of three, he couldn't help but let out a slight exclamation.

Because he saw that the shield warrior girl in this team actually had the same Fiery Lizard pet next to him, and he also recognized this girl, she was the chief shield warrior of Rose Heart.

Looking next to her, there was another familiar petite figure.

If I remember correctly, this kid had once given him a hard time. He was one of the few players who left a deep impression on him.

I saw the team's fighting stance.

The Black King Caesar finally reacted, laughed, and put away his weapon, which was a gesture of non-hostility.

"Don't worry, the one from Rose, we have no hostility towards you."

Would they do something to steal monsters if there was no hostility? I couldn't help but wonder, but it was also a bit strange that a guild like Storm would not do such a bad thing, especially when led by Black King Caesar.

As if he saw our confusion.

Black King Caesar explained, "Several people in our team have accepted the task of destroying this special elite. This kind of monster is not easy to find, so these brothers just now were a little impatient. They didn't see anyone and thought it was a wild monster and attacked it."

As if to reinforce his own explanation.

Black King Caesar asked again, "I wonder if you have obtained a material called Magma Stone, which is their quest item. If you are willing, we can buy it for 200 gold coins per stone."

We looked and, from the angle the other side was coming from, it seemed that they really couldn't see any attack from our side.
