Chapter 55

Water Mist is one of the elementalist's water skills. Xia Mo had used this skill when he was PKing with Carrot Lover in Buluo Town.

This skill was originally used for field control and support. By releasing water mist within a 3-meter range of the enemy, it can serve as a shield and interference.

But at the moment, Xia Mo asked the elementalist Xiao Quanquan to use this skill in order to interrupt.

At this stage, most players have not learned the interruption skill. Xia Mo knew that it was useless to ask, so he simply asked the elementalist to throw water mist, which could also interrupt the Yellow Spotted Venomous Spider's teleportation.

It is important to note that the water mist itself cannot interrupt. It is only because of some characteristics of the Yellow Spotted Venomous Spider that the water mist has the same effect as interruption.

The yellow-spotted poisonous spider has poor vision, smell, and hearing. When teleporting, it relies entirely on the spider silk wrapped around its feet to sense the outside world. These spider silks are particularly insensitive to water vapor and mist.

This means that as soon as the elementalist releases the mist, it will immediately lose its way and stop the third teleportation.

This teleportation must be interrupted, otherwise its white body will self-destruct when it gets close to the player. The poison gas produced by the self-destruction is enough to kill everyone. Xia Mo can't let the team be wiped out at this time, so he quickly calls out a solution and asks Xiao Quanquan to throw water mist.

When Xiao Quanquan heard the voice, although he had doubts in his heart, considering her ranking in the world and her many capable and terrifying operations before, Xiao Quanquan believed that there must be a reason why she gave such orders.

So without hesitation, he released his skills immediately.

The water mist dispersed with a swish, and the yellow-spotted poisonous spider's perception was blocked, so it stopped its third teleportation.

Xia Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

Qingshui saw the opportunity to counterattack and immediately ordered everyone: "Focus on the boss!"

The last 5% of the Yellow Spotted Venomous Spider's health was wiped out by the heavy bombardment of 7 people (not counting the priest).

What is different from previous dungeon runs is that starting from level 15, every time a boss is defeated, the boss will drop some items.

This setting has an advantage. Even if the player's ability is limited and he fails to make it to the end, at least his previous efforts are not in vain, and he can still get some rewards from the previous levels he has passed.

At this time, the yellow-spotted poisonous spider died and a lot of good things exploded.

Everyone was very excited and started looking for equipment that could be used by their profession.

Xia Mo stood still and didn't join in the fun.

Qingshui turned around: "Don't you want to go and take a look?"

Xia Mo smiled and said, "I'll go read it after you finish reading it."

In fact, she didn't look through it not because she was not interested, but because she knew clearly that none of the equipment dropped by the Yellow Spotted Poisonous Spider was suitable for star officials.

This was the case in her previous life. In order to pass this dungeon, she died N times in it, and among these N times, there was really not a single one where she got any Star Official equipment or weapons.

Xia Mo: There is nothing I can do, this is my fate :)

As expected, after everyone excitedly fished out what they needed, what was left lying on the ground were only a few scattered potion bottles and some materials that no one could use.

He laughed until his face was paralyzed and looked at her with some sympathy: "Boss, I'm sorry."

Xia Mo pulled the corner of his mouth: "It's okay."

Anyway, she didn't come here for the odds and ends of the first boss. Her goal was to get the non-professional skill blueprint [Cold Bloodline] dropped by the third boss after defeating him, an incredible skill that could make up for Xingguan's short legs.

In short, the first level was passed smoothly. After leaving the laboratory, everyone killed seven or eight waves of monsters along the way. As a snapping sound came from their ears, everyone's already tense nerves became even more tense.

"Something came out. It sounded rustling. It seemed like a snake."

Just as he finished his guess, a pair of frighteningly white eyes suddenly appeared high up in the darkness.

The eyes stared at him with a smile that made his face paralyzed. The next moment, a string of high damage popped out from above his head. At the same time, he was temporarily trembling because of being stared at.

"Damn, why is it me again!" He laughed until his face was paralyzed and looked at his legs that were forced to tremble, wanting to cry but having no tears.

Latiao Xiaohuahua quickly raised her hand and restored his health, bringing his health bar back to 90%.

The others all attacked the moment their faces were hurt from laughing.

Xia Mo was also attacking, but while she was attacking, she was also observing everyone's movements.

Suddenly, she noticed that the hunter's crotch had hidden a knife a little too close to the boss, and after laughing so hard that her face was paralyzed, she quickly reminded him in the voice chat: "Cang Dao, you're too close to the boss!"

What she actually wanted to say was that he was too close to laughing so hard that his face became paralyzed, but she couldn't say that out loud, so she changed her words.

After hearing the prompt, Zang Dao was stunned for a moment. He looked at the distance between himself and the Boss. It was not far enough, but it was not as close as she said?

He was a little suspicious and didn't follow the instructions carefully.

And in this brief moment of hesitation, everyone saw that the Boss's gaze, which had been on the man's head with a paralyzed face due to laughter, suddenly shifted to his head!

Oh no, Boss’s target this time is him!

Realizing the danger, he hurriedly retreated with a knife hidden in his crotch.

But it was too late.

Xia Mo sighed regretfully. He had been told to keep his distance, but he hadn't listened. Now the monster's gaze had shifted, and he couldn't get rid of it even if he ran farther.

-2600!

A string of bright red numbers popped up.

Although the hunter is not as fragile as the star officer and the elementalist, it is not a high-defense profession. The damage of more than 2,000 directly took away one-fifth of Ku.dang Cangdao's health. Ku.dang Cangdao felt so painful that he hurriedly gave himself medicine.

After being hit by the Boss, Ku.crotch hidden knife felt quite regretful. If he had known earlier, he would have listened to Mo Se's words. But he still had some doubts in his heart. The result of not trusting his teammates was that he got beaten.

Realizing that he had made a mistake just now, he sincerely apologized to Xia Mo in the voice: "I'm sorry, Mo Se, I didn't listen to you just now."

A calm voice sounded, "It's okay. Everyone, just be careful next time. Especially ranged players, don't get too close to the boss. I suspect if you get too close, its gaze skill will shift to a nearby location."

The full name of this skill is Nightmare Gaze, which is a very classic skill of the second boss. Usually it will randomly cast a gaze on the player. The person being gazed at will lose a lot of health and fall into a 2-second tremor.

The one who just laughed so hard that his face became paralyzed is the lucky one who was randomly selected.

But is that the end? No.

This skill has a follow-up. Within 10 seconds after the shudder ends, the nightmare gaze will still remain on the player (that is, laughing until the face is paralyzed). During this period, if anyone approaches the player and shortens the distance to within 3 meters, the nightmare gaze will be transferred to the new person and cause damage again.

Of course, Xia Mo didn't fully explain this trick, but based on what she just said, she believed that Qingshui, Salad and Meat Sauce would understand.

The crowd attacked again, this time they were much more cautious than before.

As soon as the Boss's gaze falls on someone, the people nearby will immediately run away, and Latiao Xiaohuahua will be responsible for throwing healing spells to keep the health of the person being stared at safe.

After a few exchanges, the team completely mastered the rhythm. After Xiao Quanquan unleashed a water skill from a distance, he couldn't help but joke, "Maybe we can not only get the first kill today, but we can also rush to the speedrun leaderboard~"

Hearing the sound, he wanted to nod immediately, but when he thought about how everything he thought was slapped in the face and his face was still hurting, he swallowed his words and said in a serious tone, "Little Quanquan, don't be too arrogant. This guy only has half of his health left. Don't be careless~"

He laughed so hard that his face was paralyzed, but he never spoke so seriously. Everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud when they heard the tone in his voice.

Salad with meat sauce shot an arrow from the side, and teased with a smile: "It seems that the second brother's gaze before was not cruel enough. You still have the mind to point fingers at others here."

"Yeah, you were so trembling before, I really should have taken a picture of you as a souvenir, haha!" Bobo Chicken also joined in.

He laughed until his face was paralyzed and he immediately stopped pretending. He snorted, "How dare you laugh at me? If I hadn't been at the front the whole time today, would you ranged guys have been so safe? Damn it, next time let Bobo Chicken take on the monsters. I'm going to take a back seat!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Everyone laughed again.

At this moment, an accident suddenly happened.

A strange whisper suddenly sounded in his ears, and then Xia Mo heard people screaming all around.

"Oh no, I'm being slowed down!"

"Me too, it's much slower!"

"What the hell? A debuff that slows you down? Qingshui, Huahua, could you please dispel it?"

Shimizu: "My [Darkness Dispel] is immune beforehand. You've already been hit. Using the skill now will be ineffective."

Latiao Xiaohuahua's voice followed up, "My [Holy Light Envelopment] is also like that. I can't dispel the debuff afterwards."

"Ah—what should I do? I don't know when this debuff will disappear."

The most unlucky teammate today was the one who laughed until his face was paralyzed. He was the one who was attacked by venom while clearing the way, and he was also the one who was fixed by the spider web and kept losing blood. Now, even the nightmare gaze and the speed-reducing curse were still on him.

Xia Mo silently drew a circle for him in his heart, and at the same time took the opportunity to remind everyone: "This debuff seems to not only reduce speed, but also reduce defense and attack."

After hearing her reminder, the people who were hit suddenly realized that their other attributes had indeed decreased.

The dungeon being slowed down was already fatal, but now even the defense and attack were reduced. The boss suddenly took the advantage and quickly appeared from the darkness.

It was not until then that everyone discovered that the second one was actually a fat black bug, which looked even more disgusting than the first one, the yellow-spotted poisonous spider. It crawled and squirmed on the ground like a ball of melted oil.

With each movement, it left a trail of black, sticky liquid on the ground.

"Don't step on the liquid, it might worsen the debuff."

Xia Mo continued to remind him, then she glanced at Qingshui, and after receiving a silent nod of agreement from him, she continued in the voice chat, "This debuff will likely last quite a while. The four people affected should stop attacking. See the glass container behind you? Jump in and hide. Don't come out until the debuff wears off."

Nightmare Curse, this is the second big move of the second brother.

Curse 4 players at once, reducing their agility, attack, and defense by 50% for 10 minutes.

10 minutes is a long time to kill a boss. If you are not careful, you may be killed by the second boss.

Xia Mo died countless times in this link back then. Every time, no matter where she hid, she would eventually be killed by the second brother.

Later, she finally found a place where her penis would not attack her - a glass container in the laboratory.

As long as you jump in and cover the lid, the second one will assume that the container contains its companion and will give up attacking.

When Xia Mo discovered this technique, he was extremely excited. They had originally had a good chance of getting the first kill, but because the Absolute Dynasty players were not strong enough, they ended up dying at the second level, allowing another team to take first place.

Speaking of this, Xia Mo was speechless for a long time. The method was clearly in front of them, but in the end, the whole team was wiped out.

Because she didn't get the first kill, after leaving the dungeon, she started arguing with Lingyun Huangtian and Xu Xiaobei.

Xia Mo felt a headache when he thought of these bad things.

Of course, that won’t happen now. The people selected by Shimizu personally, even if their individual strength is not as good as the world’s top team, their teamwork is still quite good.

Xia Mo is not their captain, nor has she been granted any command authority, but since when, everyone has regarded her as the backbone of the team.

After receiving her order, Sala, who had been hit, the one with the knife hidden in his crotch, the one with a paralyzed face from laughing, and Bobo Chicken all turned around and ran towards the container.

Among the remaining four people, except for Latiao Xiaohuahua who is a priest and is not responsible for output, the remaining three people, Xia Mo, Qingshui and the elementalist Xiaoquanquan, continue to maintain the output status.

Seeing that 4 outputs were missing, the man in the glass container looked a little panicked as he laughed until his face was paralyzed.

"This is Difficult Ben, and he's the second oldest of Difficult Ben. Can they do it with just the three of them?"

Bobo Chicken stared at the battlefield ahead and couldn't help but clench his fists: "Who knows? I really want to go up and help now."

It’s a pity that they have a debuff and cannot go out. Otherwise, going out with a body that can’t run or defend will only cause trouble for them.

The four of them just stared at it nervously, not daring to breathe.

Suddenly, I heard someone gasping.

"Holy crap, look at the DPS panel. Mo Se's output...how did it suddenly go up?!"
