...

A short while later, the group arrived at the end of the arid corridor.

A black demon hound, one and a half meters long and with three heads, guarded the teleportation array leading to the entrance.

Information from the game flashed through Linda's mind:

BOSS, the three-headed black demon hound, a high-level monster.

Level 6, HP 3000!

The BOSS, whose race is a high-level monster, has extremely high health and is considered the king of monsters.

How to carry out the raid is a serious problem that adventurers must seriously consider.

Linda remained unchanged, wielding a rusty one-handed sword, treating herself as an ordinary level 5 warrior, teaching adventurers how to kill the three-headed black hound.

As long as you memorize the map thoroughly and remember the precursors to each of the BOSS's skill attacks, passing the level without taking damage is a breeze.

Linda dodged and weaved like an oiled eel.

No matter how ferocious the three-headed black hound's attack was, he could always dodge it at the last second and then use his rusty one-handed sword to gently scratch it.

If you really want to kill this boss, Linda can just throw two Venom Orbs and then leave the game running.

But this guide was prepared for low-level adventurers, so he moved as slowly as possible, explaining as he fought the Cerberus.

The audience watching from outside the screen was a bit confused.

Is this still the ferocious, infamous Cerberus, known as the "Apprentice Terminator"?

In Linda's hands, it feels almost like a pet!

Ten minutes later.

The three-headed black hound collapsed to the ground, dying a humiliating death at the hands of Linda's rusty one-handed sword.

He had 3000 points of health, and he scraped him to death with his gua sha.

The guardian of the secret realm collapsed with a thud, his body turning into golden light, which split into three small orbs that landed on the heads of the three people in the Phoenix Tail Flower.

Linda received a system notification:

[The team has successfully cleared the first level of the trial and received the blessing of the World Tree Goddess!]

[Experience Points +1000!]

[You delivered the final blow to the Level 6 Secret Realm Guardian, the Three-Headed Black Hound, and have earned 1000 Diamonds!]

Linda received diamonds, not mystery points, for killing the guardian of the secret realm with a finishing blow.

He entered his question into the system's Q&A assistant and received the answer:

Defeating real wild monsters outside the secret realm will increase Linda's mystery points, while the trial monsters within the secret realm, which are conjured by the divine power of the World Tree Goddess, will provide diamonds.

In addition, whether you defeat the BOSS that is the guardian of the secret realm or the hidden BOSS, you will receive a divine blessing from the World Tree Goddess for the entire team, which means 'experience reward'.

This allows Linda to farm Mystery Points outside to improve herself, and to collect Diamonds in the Secret Realm to add points to her team members.

"The reward for the three-headed black hound is a bit low, only 1000 experience points."

Linda thought helplessly.

He's level 13, and the experience points he gets from killing a level 6 boss are negligible.

While I was thinking, a settlement page popped up in front of me.

Just like in the game, after defeating the BOSS, the quality of the dropped equipment will be increased according to the completion rating.
