Chapter Forty: The Negative Effects of Despair!

"Are you kidding me?! Are you kidding me?! Can't you teleport out of this dungeon?!"

Another archer roared and fired an arrow.

Pfft—

The swift wolf felt pain, but it did not back down; instead, the pain stimulated its wildness.

They charged straight at the archer!

"Captain...save me!"

Another knight's eyes widened, and he was about to rush over to rescue the archer when a swift wolf bit down hard on the edge of the shield.

He struggled twice, but two more wounds appeared on his body.

"Li Lao Er!" the knight roared, "Watch out, don't turn your back on him!"

"I...I don't want to die!"

"Get out of the way quickly, or the Gale Wolf will pounce on you!"

The knight watched helplessly as the archer was pounced on by the Swift Wolves and fell to the ground, letting out a series of miserable howls.

Five seconds later, the screams subsided.

Until the swift wolf bit the archer's neck.

The archer's eyes widened, and he fell to the ground, lifeless.

"asshole!!"

The already precarious situation worsened when the four-man squad lost two more members, leaving the remaining two knights back-to-back as the Swiftwind Wolves surrounded them.

They could even smell the stench emanating from the beasts' breath, and their overwhelming hunting instincts.

The Gale Wolf King let out a long howl, and all the Gale Wolves attacked simultaneously!

"It's over!"

The two knights were utterly despondent!

Just then.

"boom!!!!!!"

A violent explosion resounded through the sky!

Click!

Click!

The knight captain instinctively opened his eyes.

I...am I'm not dead yet?

He looked up again.

Only then did he see that a giant skeletal bear was raising its massive bone paws.

Beneath it, two Swiftwind Wolves twitched, clearly nearing their end.

The Gale Wolf King was taken aback, then a fierce glint flashed in its eyes.

"howl----"

Pfft—

A giant sword descended from the sky, piercing through the hardest part of the Gale Wolf King's skull.

Immediately afterwards, the Skeleton Demon Swordsman charged into the wolf pack with his sword.

One cut, one kill!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After three gunshots, the three Gale Wolves all had the same bloody hole between their eyebrows.

Wu Yong brandished the gun in his hand and chuckled, "Boss, look how awesome I am!"

Shen Yi sat on the giant bear in Skull Mountain Forest, rubbing his buttocks without making a sound.

He temporarily ignored Wu Yong's courage...

Shen Yi sighed. If Wu Yong hadn't had the information he wanted, he really wouldn't have wanted to bring this guy along.

However, Wu Yong's strength also surprised Shen Yi.

While gunners can provide sustained firepower at mid-range, their biggest weakness in the early game is their low attack power.

This pack of swift wolves, apart from the wolf king, consists of at least level 6 or 7.

With Wu Yong's attack power, he was able to kill one enemy with a single shot.

This unfair battle did not last long; after killing the Gale Wolf King, the two of them wiped out the entire Gale Wolf pack.

Shen Yi ordered his skeleton knights to devour the corpses of the Gale Wolf pack and collect the loot, then looked at the two knights who were standing there dumbfounded.

"What happened?"

The knight captain was stunned, and it wasn't until Shen Yi asked him that he realized what had happened.

A skeleton, a bear, and two professionals.

They wiped out the entire Gale Wolf pack!

Wu Yong brandished the standard-issue pistol in his hand. "My older brother is asking you a question. What happened?"

The knight captain, as if waking from a dream, hurriedly said, "Black mud! The entire Ghost Forest is full of black mud!"

"My teammate is dead..."

Shen Yi frowned slightly. "Do you know what this black mud is?"

The knight captain shook his head. "They only mentioned...mist! Yes, mist!"

Wu Yong, who was standing nearby, then asked, "What are the detailed effects of the debuff?"

The knight captain shook his head. "I don't know."

have no idea?

Shen Yi and Wu Yong exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of seriousness in each other's eyes.

Normally, the career panel will record all the career statuses of the professional.

Besides level, class, attributes, and skills.

Both the enhancement and negative effects will be displayed on the panel.

Most enhancement effects will clearly display the information. For example, the priest's class skill [Blessing] slightly increases damage tolerance and strengthens the body's natural regeneration ability.

However, the negative effects are not entirely the case.

Some negative effects exceed the professional's insight, so only the name will be displayed without any actual explanation.

The "mist" in the four-person team happens to fall into this category.

Wu Yong frowned deeply, muttering to himself, "That's strange... It's clearly an environmental factor in a low-level dungeon, how could the level be so high?"

He turned to look at Shen Yi, "Boss, there's definitely something wrong here."

“I know.” Shen Yi lowered his head and pondered.

This is something Shen Yi cannot understand.

Some dungeons rely on the environment and naturally come with a debuff aura that can be triggered as soon as you enter the area, such as extremely cold or extremely hot regions.

Special weather and terrain conditions can also come with certain negative effects.

However, it's impossible for a debuff of this level to have no effect description at all.

"What other information do you have about the dungeon boss?"

Wu Yong shook his head. "It's really gone."

"Actually, we only briefly fought the dungeon boss before running away; it was too difficult to deal with."

Shen Yi squinted and glanced at Wu Yong.

He could tell that this guy wasn't telling him the whole truth.

But this statement is still quite credible. At least Wu Yong really doesn't know about the dungeon boss. If he did know, he wouldn't need to hide it from him in this situation.

"You're Wu Yong?!" The knight captain seemed to recognize Wu Yong, his eyes widening in surprise.

"You're the gunner..."

"Yeah, I'm Wu Yong!" Wu Yong chuckled and put his arm around the knight captain. "I even borrowed some toilet paper from you last time. Oh, you really saved me from a fire. If it weren't for your toilet paper, I would have had to use my fingers."

"Huh? Ah..."

Wu Yong felt Shen Yi's gaze and his expression became somewhat unnatural. He cleared his throat.

"We don't have time for idle chatter now. Tell me, do you have any more intelligence?"

The knight captain's eyes immediately dimmed. "Two of our team members are dead."

"Dead?"

The two of them were both stunned for a moment.

If it were a teleportation out of the instance, then the knight captain wouldn't have needed to speak at all.

There's only one possibility that would make him say that.

"Once you're contaminated by this miasma, you won't be protected by the instance's death protection mechanism..."

Wu Yong's voice was somewhat slow.

At this moment, his face was deathly pale, and an unprecedented solemnity appeared on his face.

He knew what this meant.

This means that all professionals who have been contaminated by the miasma must either wait for the dungeon to end.

Either you die inside the dungeon!

At this very moment, thousands of professionals from the entire Jiangdong School Alliance have gathered in this instance!
