Chapter 403 [(*^▽^*)]
Sichuan peppercorns, "An item that can immobilize someone? One in five chance, how long does it immobilize them?"
Wang Fu: "There's a one-in-five chance of freezing someone for ten minutes. What do you guys think of this prop?"
Sichuan peppercorns, "What are the prerequisites?"
Wang Fu glanced at her. "Beautiful lady, you know a lot! There is indeed a prerequisite, which is that you need to get something from this elite monster, such as a drop of blood, a hair, or even a fingernail!"
Huajiao suddenly realized, "So, you tried to get something off him before, but he's too tough. No attack worked, and not a single piece of skin came off?"
Wang Fu nodded with a bitter expression. "Yes, can you believe it? And we dare not get too close, lest we be caught off guard and killed, so we've been at a stalemate until now."
Fang Hong's eyes were somewhat strange. "How many times did you go? This elite monster went to harass and provoke you repeatedly, yet he didn't relentlessly pursue you?"
Wang Fu's lips twitched. "How could I not? As the team leader, I was chased by him twice. Luckily, I had a lot of props and hid well after the hatred subsided, otherwise I would have been finished long ago."
Without hatred... this person really treats the dungeon like a game. Although it is indeed a game, it's a perilous place with a near-death experience for those with low scores, and for those with high scores...
Wang Fu probably had a lot of points, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to do it so easily.
Xue Rui: "Your props only have a one in five chance? Do you guys think we should take the gamble?"
His gaze was fixed on his teammates, while Zhou Feng checked the time. "I think we can give it a try. After all... time is running out. If this continues, he might destroy the walls of all the floors, and we might end up with nowhere to hide."
Sichuan peppercorns, "Let's give it a try. It's just that if it fails, the cost will be a bit high. After all... it can only be used once a day. After using it, we'll have to wait until tomorrow to use it again."
Fang Hong: "I agree. The elite monster just ate another player, so it's probably gotten even stronger. I don't know how long the two players chasing it can last."
Ding Baishuang added, "It's one."
Fang Hong: "Yes, they split up and ran away. Now there's only one being chased."
Wang Fu: "Hey, wait a minute, where are your props? What kind are they?"
Sichuan peppercorns: "My prop, as long as it shines for ten seconds, can slow him down to one-tenth of his original speed, and the effect lasts for ten minutes."
Wang Fu's eyes lit up, "Wow, beautiful lady, your props are so powerful! It seems like our hopes for this round are pinned on you."
"If we really have to take action, I must use my props first to slow him down for ten minutes. After ten minutes, I'll get some skin or hair on him before I use your props."
Wang Fu, "A one-in-five probability, maybe...maybe..."
Suddenly, Zhou Qiao, a teammate behind him, spoke up, "We've used this item many times in previous dungeons, but so far it's only worked once!"
Zhao Wan sneered and glared at Wang Fu, "So, don't have too much hope for this one-in-five probability, otherwise... you might all be wiped out."
Very well, the three of them were wiped out before because they believed in this prop, otherwise Zhao Wan's resentment wouldn't be so deep. Wang Fujiu put his hands in a gesture of surrender.
He felt wronged, because the one-in-five success rate was beyond his control. "What can I do if I'm unlucky? It's not my fault."
Huajiao suddenly chimed in, "So, among the three of you, isn't there anyone lucky? Why not just let him use it? He can return it to you when he's done."
Upon hearing this, all three of them looked at Huajiao with disbelief.
Huajiao paused slightly. "What? Why are you looking at me like that? I used to ask lucky friends to draw the lottery for me. Although I didn't win every time, it was much better than drawing it myself!"
Wang Fu swallowed hard. "That's right, how come I didn't think of that!"
He turned to look at Zhou Qiao sitting behind him, "Hehe, can I let you come later?"
Zhou Qiao snorted coldly, "Of course you can, but I can't guarantee it will work on the first try!"
Wang Fu: "It's alright, it's alright. Anyway, if I were to do it, the success rate would probably be one in fifty, not one in five..."
Xue Rui watched them talking and said, "In that case... we need to discuss our plans for later."
If they haven't considered cooperation yet after all this time, there's no need for so much talk. The exchange of information about items they shared earlier was just a way of showing their sincerity.
Wang Fu: "The elite monsters are coming down again. Should we ambush them from below? Your item takes ten seconds to activate... but this monster seems to only stay in one place for more than ten seconds at the beginning when it's feeding, and then it never stays for more than ten seconds again."
Zhou Qiao explained, "The player behind him is being chased, so as long as a player is engaged in direct combat with him and remains within a certain range, he will stay in that range for more than ten seconds."
Zhao Wan looked around, "Who has the ability to hold him off for ten seconds?"
Zhou Feng: "Perhaps I don't need to go in person?"
Sichuan pepper: "Yes, puppets can be sent, especially dolls."
They still remembered how that elite monster treated the toy monkey; he talked to the toy monkey for well more than ten seconds!
Wang Fu was somewhat skeptical. "Will the doll work? Your props need ten seconds, right? Can the doll really last for ten seconds?"
"We can send over more dolls to try it out. If it works, then there's no problem."
Xue Rui, "Can your props be operated by the doll?"
Huajiao shook his head. "No, this doll can only be operated by a person. That's the hardest part. Let me do it this time. It's my prop, and I'm the most comfortable using it myself."
Xue Rui looked at Wang Fu and the others, and Wang Fu chuckled, "We can be responsible for stalling for time."
Ten seconds should be no problem. With so many people, surely we can hold out for ten seconds?
Xue Rui said, "I'll go instead. I have a tool that will prevent him from noticing me."
Huajiao sighed, "I knew it. Captain, you were going to take on the most difficult task. It's very dangerous, even more dangerous than us stalling for time!"
Wang Fu and the others didn't know, but Hua Jiao and his teammates did. To keep the invisibility item active, Xue Rui couldn't move. If he moved, the invisibility effect would be canceled.
However, elite monsters cannot stay in the same position for ten seconds. Once they move, Xue Rui has to move the camera along with them, otherwise they will be seen!
Xue Rui said, "Alright, there's no one more suitable than me. Everyone, just wait for now. If these two players can seriously injure the elite monster, then we can make our move."
Now they are being targeted by elite monsters. To survive this ordeal, they have only two options: first, they must hold out until 6 a.m., at which point the elite monsters will leave on their own.
The second option is to either severely injure or kill the monster. Xue Rui and the others are unsure which option they will choose and can only wait and observe.
As a result of this observation, the time jumped directly to 3 a.m., with three hours left until 6 a.m.
Wang Fu was somewhat troubled. "What do we do now? Should we wait any longer? This elite monster seems to still be in a berserk state. Can it maintain this state until six o'clock?"
Zhou Qiao held the prop that Wang Fu had just given her. She was going to use it later, and she really hoped she could succeed, but... it wasn't up to her to decide.
Sichuan pepper: "These two are really good at running. They've been doing it all this time, and they're even taking turns pulling the monster. When one gets tired, they switch to the other. This elite monster is strange too; they've actually managed to toy with it."
Zhou Feng: "It seems they don't intend to confront the elite monster head-on. They're thinking of holding out until six o'clock, then letting the elite monster leave on its own."
Xue Rui said, "If we don't kill them, we'll likely be facing two elite monsters tomorrow night. We absolutely can't let them live past six o'clock. Since these two players don't want to be killed, let's go kill them."
Wang Fu laughed and said, "What if these two players come and steal the monster while we're killing it?"
Xue Rui said, "If they come to steal our monsters, we'll kill them all together. Elite monsters are easy prey for them because their intelligence is questionable in their berserk state. We're not mindless."
Zhao Wan smiled gently, "In that case, leave the task of preventing others from stealing monsters to me. I'm good at that!"
Everyone was looking at her. Wang Fu scratched his head a little embarrassedly. "She has a rather special prop, I won't go into details, but it can protect you from harm, so don't worry."
Xue Rui nodded, "In that case, I'll leave this matter to you."
They quickly selected several ambush sites, aiming to successfully draw the elite monster's attention to themselves without the pursued player being aware of the situation.
"There's no other way, we can only rely on numbers to win. The elite monster just wants to eat people right now, and it will only chase after these two players if it can't find any other players. We just need to have three of us appear at the same time, and we need to keep them close together. It will definitely come after us!"
Sichuan pepper raised its hand, "Count me in!"
Fang Hong: "I'll go too."
Zhou Qiao: "I'll go with you guys, the three of us!"
The presence of three beautiful women, each with their own unique charm, made the group of men a little awkward. However, Zhou Feng was older, and Wang Fu, as the team leader, would have to cooperate with Xue Rui later.
Xue Rui, on the other hand, had taken on the most important mission and couldn't be used as bait now. The remaining two, Ding Baishuang and Zhao Wan, were both beauties.
Wang Fu gave Xue Rui a strange look. Xue Rui first glanced at Zhou Feng in his team, and then looked at Wang Fu.
At least he had Zhou Feng with him, while Wang Fu only had himself and two beautiful women!
