The nightmare-level dungeon is called Frost Abyss, and the group was teleported underground.
Upon entering the instance, a negative effect appeared on everyone's panel.
——
Death Curse
Effect: Deducts 4% of health per second.
——
Because Ye Gubai possesses the mythical ability to turn misfortune into fortune.
Therefore, the negative effects of this death curse had no effect on him.
But for people like Ziyue, this thing is a rather troublesome and disgusting thing.
Each second deducts 4% of health, so in 10 seconds that's 40%.
Such a high amount of health loss kept Zi Yue and the other two women constantly on the move.
Almost every few seconds, they needed to use a health potion or have Zi Yue Ru use her skills to heal them.
Fortunately, everyone has stocked up on blood-thickening medicine, so there won't be a problem of running out of medicine.
The health deduction is calculated in seconds, which can lead to significant financial losses.
...
In the Nightmare-level dungeon, the monsters have increased health, making it difficult for Ye Gubai to kill them instantly.
However, this is easily solved; all that's needed is for Zi Yue Ru to use her amplification ability.
——
Night Enchantment: Gathers the power of the night, granting teammates within the aura of blessing a 25% damage bonus.
Duration: 180s
Cooldown time: 60s
Skill mana cost: 75
——
A 25% damage increase doesn't seem like much.
However, underground, where no sunlight falls, the Purple Moon is amplified by the darkness of night.
With the amplification effect of nighttime, the skill effect will double, and the damage increase will become 50%.
Increasing damage by half is not much if it's 10+5.
But now Ye Gubai's Eastern Star skill can deal 2 million damage in a single strike.
A 50% increase from 2 million becomes 3 million. Such terrifying damage would kill even a nightmare-level monster.
When the skill landed, a massive amount of experience surged towards everyone.
[Defeat a monster and gain 8.56 million experience points]
There were more than 16,000 monsters in the Nightmare-level dungeon, which was something Ye Gubai hadn't expected.
The sheer number of monsters instantly brought him 8.56 million experience points.
Based on once every 10 minutes, 6 times per hour.
In an 8-hour day, he can gain 410 million experience points by completing Nightmare-level dungeons.
After reaching level 48, the experience required to level up reached 1.9 billion.
In other words, if he levels up by grinding on Nightmare difficulty, he can reach level 49 in just 5 days and level 50 in half a month.
Thinking of this, Ye Gubai couldn't help but smile.
"It seems this will be our next farming location."
Hearing Ye Gubai's words, everyone nodded silently.
The monsters that appear in Nightmare-level dungeons are twin demonic insects called [Frost Dragons].
She looks somewhat like the woodlice from Ye Gubai's previous life, though most people probably don't know what a woodlice is.
However, calling them pill bugs or woodlice might make sense to everyone.
These demonic insects are level 60 and are about the size of a small car.
It looks like a woodlice, with two pairs of dragon horns on its head.
When it sees Ye Gubai and the others, the carapace on both sides of its back will crack open, extending two transparent wings that take flight, revealing the fangs below its head to launch an attack.
During the first wave of attacks, the number of demonic insects that emerged reached as high as a thousand.
Upon witnessing this scene, Ye Gubai had a premonition that he would gain a great deal of experience this time.
After releasing the Eastern Star, things turned out exactly as he had predicted.
With joy on their faces, Ye Gubai and his group continued deeper into the abyss.
Since the woodlice had been killed by the massive meteorite impact, the group did not encounter any further trouble on their journey.
However, upon seeing the boss, Ye Gubai and his group all showed expressions of surprise.
——
The corpse of a cursed frost dragon
Level: 66
Panel: Omitted
Introduction: Despite being a powerful frost dragon overlord, it still could not escape the fate of being cursed to death by the Overlord.
Upon death, the territory of the Frost Dragon is destroyed.
The frost dragon, fallen into the abyss, gradually decayed under the erosion of time.
The rotting flesh transformed into twin demonic insects, while the remaining skeleton, aided by dark forces, resurrected with resentment.
——
"So those pill bugs were actually demonic creatures born from the twins of the Frost Dragon. No wonder they had the form of a dragon."
"Did the frost dragon, who was killed by a curse, die at the hands of the same person as Rommel?"
Gazing at the hundred-meter-long skeleton of the frost dragon in the distance, Ye Gubai fell into deep thought.
He didn't rush to launch an attack, but instead observed the situation first.
The distant corpse of the frost dragon was shrouded in a terrifying curse.
Even after it dies, this thing can still generate corrosive power that damages surrounding objects.
——
Cursed (Special Aura)
Effect: Being afflicted by the death curse will bring disaster to the living beings around you.
——
Looking at the special aura within the corpses, Ye Gubai understood the origin of the dungeon in the Frost Mountains.
Needless to say, those frost goblins were just some monsters that invaded after the death of the frost dragons.
The frost golems that appear in the subsequent Warrior-level dungeons should actually be the Frost Dragon Clan's forces.
They stood guard along the mountain ridge, protecting the last vestiges of dignity of the Frost Dragon Clan.
Those Frost Dragon patrols might just be the last of the Frost Dragon bloodline.
As you venture deeper into the cave, you'll encounter snow monsters and snow zombies.
These snow monsters and snow zombies must have died because of the curse of the ice dragon's corpse, and after death they turned into zombies and lingered in the caves outside.
As for why pill bugs are not afraid of the curse of the dragon's corpse, it is probably because they are born from the flesh and blood of the dragon.
Being a demon born from cursed flesh and blood, it naturally wouldn't be afraid of this curse's influence.
The previous negative effects of the Death Curse became more potent the closer one got to the frost dragon's carcass.
It has increased from 4% at the beginning to 5% now.
Keep in mind that the group is still about two hundred meters away from the frost dragon's carcass.
At such a distance, the negative effects of the Death Curse actually began to increase.
If you get too close to the corpse, wouldn't you lose 10% or more per second?
With such terrifying health loss, what normal person could withstand it?
To avoid any potential deaths, Ye Gubai simply ordered the women to flee in the opposite direction.
Just stay away and make sure your own safety is safe.
Faced with this situation, the women didn't try to be brave and obediently turned around and ran away.
Including Silverwing Ominous Star, Ye Gubai also arranged for him to go away with the women.
(The Silverwing Star became Ye Gubai's contracted unit, and it is still a real living entity, so blood medicine can also be used on it.)
After the girls left, Ye Gubai turned around and charged towards the corpse of the boss, the Frost Dragon!
