“Warrior bro! Try to target his lower half!” the sole male healer shouted, a healing beam locking onto the Warrior.
The Warrior’s injuries began to heal rapidly. Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he felt as if he hadn't been hit by a Knight, but rather by a giant dragon.
Seizing this opportunity, the other two Spellcasters also began to output damage to the Golem. They didn't dare to go too far, otherwise, with only one Warrior, they definitely wouldn't be able to hold aggro.
The Warrior bro also listened to advice, swinging his greatsword down at the horse's legs!
With a crisp crack, the Golem slightly cracked, and the Warrior's face lit up with joy, feeling there was a chance!
However, how could the Players give them a chance?
Yuan Shen Jie shouted, “Golem Overseer, use 【Curtain Call】!”
The Golem Knight drew a circle with his greatsword, then his entire body glowed with a faint yellow light, his aura becoming even more imposing, and his desire to attack steadily increased.
A horizontal slash, a downward cut, followed by an upward thrust, forced the Adventurers to retreat repeatedly.
Yuān Shēn also pressed the advantage: “Golem Overseer! 【Iron Cavalry Spear Cry】”
The Golem Knight leaped high, and layers of fire rings erupted at the landing spot.
Just like playing Pokémon, as Yuān Shēn Jie called out skill names like reporting a menu, the Golem Knight would release the corresponding skills.
For a time, the Warrior was completely unable to cope. Before being pierced by the greatsword, his last thought was that such a “lively” monster should not appear in a low-level dungeon at all…
As the Warrior was carried away, dealing with a few Spellcasters was like picking off stragglers by the roadside, and they were sent off one by one by the Golem Knight.
This was simply a one-sided “slaughter.”
After eliminating the last Adventurer, the Golem Knight returned to its position, transforming once again into a solemn sculpture.
“Equipment drop! Finally, equipment dropped! Two at once!”
Watching Pulman gradually dissipate into particles, Wang Dana looked at the two clusters of white light left on the ground and cheered loudly.
Everything about this game was good, except for the drop rate, which was ridiculously low! The five of them had been fighting here for a long time, and not a single piece of equipment had dropped.
This was a misconception! In fact, equipment had been dropping all along, such as the weapons in their hands and some other items.
However, these items mostly fell into the abyss.
Mikelson, adhering to the principle of “if no one wants it, it's mine!”, happily collected them and then distributed them to the Players as quest rewards.
Although disassembling weapons would return source, disassembling and assembling always resulted in some loss.
It was better to reuse them and save source.
“Quick, let's see what kind of equipment they are?” Hearing about the equipment drop, all the Players eagerly gathered around.
Wang Dana used the common skill 【Appraise】 on the two pieces of equipment.
【Jeweled Copper Ring】 (Level 15 White)
【Equipment Requirement: Mage】
【Attribute: +10 Spell Attack】
【Guardian Necklace】 (Level 10 White)
【Equipment Requirement: Mage】
【Equipment Skill: Emergency Shield】
Generates an emergency shield with 150 HP. (Once per day)
“They're all Mage class equipment, it seems only Yuān Shēn Jie can equip them!” Tai Dao Xia pouted, somewhat dejectedly, looking at the attributes displayed by Wang Dana.
Actually, the quality of the equipment wasn't the real reason for his dejection. The main reason was that his group of monsters hadn't been used at all. The cheap ones were too weak, and the powerful ones were too expensive!
Yuān Shēn excitedly took the two pieces of equipment, put them on, and happily spun around.
Although they were all white-grade equipment, they were better than nothing!
“Don't be sad, Tai Dao Xia, your dragon will definitely make an appearance later! Isn't it just too expensive? Let's use Yuān Shēn Jie's Golem as a transition for now!”
Xiao De patted Tai Dao Xia's shoulder, comforting him. It's a game, so you should play it with a smile!
“Once we have source, we'll replace Yuān Shēn Jie's Golem first!”
“Hey! How can you say that? This is just a Level 10 Golem. When we have money, we can also upgrade to a Level 120 Golem!”
【Beep~ Today's defense mission has been completed, and rewards have been issued.】
【Next, Players can explore the remaining maps: Thunder Fortress, Wind Surge Waterway, and Black Lake. The remaining maps are under development.】
“Woohoo! Mission accomplished!” Seeing the 10 source points they received, all the Players cheered.
After playing for half a day, the few of them already understood how important source points were in the game “Abyss”!
As long as you have source points, you can create anything you want in this game, even something from your imagination!
“Let's go! Let's check out Thunder Fortress. Tomorrow's challenge will definitely be harder than today's!”
“Yeah, yeah! I suggest the developers strengthen the opposition. It's too simple, no challenge!”
“Open the top-up channel! I want to top up!”
...
Amidst the Players' cheers, Mikelson, nestled in the World Tree, was already beaming with joy!
That afternoon, the Players eliminated five waves of Adventurers in total, with each wave consisting of 10 to 15 people. On average, each wave of attack brought in about 80 source points.
The income from this last wave was particularly outstanding. Since the entire team's level was around 19, this one wave brought in nearly a hundred source points.
【Haide Mikelson】
【World Source: 555.9】
ᴸ — — 【Today's Income: 304.7; Daily Consumption: 42.0】
ᴸ — — 【Player Storage: 50】
Looking at his source points, Mikelson wished that the Adventurers would come to queue up and die all day long.
The accursed Epsilon World had set the opening hours for the Mikelson World Tree as 9 AM to 11 AM and 2 PM to 5 PM.
This was the Epsilon Adventurers' Association's arrangement for sustainable overfishing. They would leave some time for the World Tree to recover.
In other words, even if the Adventurers' challenge time was extremely compressed, a maximum of only 12 teams could be accommodated per day.
Although sometimes in the middle of the night, small teams would trek to the embedded land and enter the World Bubble from there, this was very rare.
It seems I'm still not strong enough!
It seems I need to quickly upgrade the World Bubble “Zelant” into an open map or a high-level map!
An open map can accommodate several teams simultaneously. A high-level map can increase the number and level of teams that can enter.
However, all this is still too early. Not to mention that upgrading maps requires source points, the Players' current levels are at most Level 10.
It is estimated that once upgraded, I will repeat the mistakes of a small sapling, daily expenses exceeding income, and eventually wither...
Mikelson was pondering when he suddenly noticed that the daily consumption was maxed out.
The authority he granted to the Players was 50 points per day. What did they do? How did it get filled up all at once?
Mikelson looked over with curiosity, but was horrified to discover that the Players were actually tearing down his home!!
That once exquisite and tranquil ancient castle, after the Players' drastic renovations, had been completely reduced to ruins inside, except for the castle's exterior.
