You have got to be kidding .
Anyone pulled at random from this group had their own logistical supplies, especially soone like Gu Xiaobei, who was a support-type to begin with.
Let alone seven days, these seven people could easily stay for seventy days without any logistical issues whatsoever.
"Co on, why take it slow? What we need right now is speed. They are just grunts. Leave them to !"
Saying this, Gu Xiaobei walked over to the nearby shipwreck wreckage with a torch in hand, as everyone watched.
With a simple reach, she directly set the wreckage ablaze.
Seemingly feeling the fire was burning a bit too slowly, she even poured a barrel of oil over it.
Gu Xiaobei's entire sequence of actions flowed like water without the slightest pause, leaving the others no ti to stop her.
Lan Qingyou saw it clearly. Damn it, was that not the canister filled with Kerosene she had sold to Shang Chuan?!
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
Originally, this place was a safe harbor surrounded by mountains on three sides.
But with the presence of fire, the wind inexplicably grew stronger.
Lan Qingyou was still wondering how a safe harbor could have such strong winds, but when she turned her head, she saw the great wind mage and stonemason, Li Huai, actively fanning the flas.
Consequently, the fire took advantage of the wind, and the wind fueled the fire, causing the blaze to rage ever more fiercely.
In the brief twenty or thirty seconds the group spent in shock, the fire had expanded further, burning straight into the dungeon.
"Wait! What happened to playing it 'safe' like you just said?"
The Priestess grumbled in bewildernt.
"This is the safest strategy right now,"
Li Huai argued defensively, swinging his arms to whip up a fierce gale.
With so many people present, how could they possibly repeat the sa mistakes?
Today, utilizing this fire, he, Li Huai, was going to achieve a first-clear speedrun. He was determined to incinerate the thousands of monsters inside with a single blaze.
"Hurry up and move! The monsters inside will definitely rush out once they sense the fire!"
Seeing that everyone was still in a daze and had not moved, Lan Qingyou imdiately roared.
As she spoke, a swarm of legless, pale-blue ghosts and skeleton sailors wielding various weapons and wearing bandanas dashed out from the raging fire.
'Great, just great. So this is how we are pulling aggro, huh.'
'If this were a ga, I would have definitely cursed you two idiots out.'
'But this is reality, and there is no ti for scolding.'
After receiving Lan Qingyou's warning, everyone brought out their trump cards.
[Scimitar Skeleton Sailor (C)]
[Health Points: 900]
[Mana Points: 200]
[Skills: (Leaping Slash) (Triple Cleave)]
[Description: Sailors who still wander the ships or docks to this day, their bound bodies with nowhere to go.]
[Sailor Ghost (C)]
[Health Points: 400]
[Mana Points: 600]
[Skills: (Fear Bind) (Floating Movent)]
[Description: Sailors who still wander the ships or docks to this day, their imprisoned souls finding no rest.]
"Hiss—"
Lan Qingyou drew a sharp breath of cold air.
"What is wrong?"
The Sun threw out a Rune Stone, binding a group of skeletons in place, before leaning close to Lan Qingyou and asking in a low voice.
After all, Lan Qingyou possessed the unwavering Analysis Magic Eye and could see far more than they could.
Since she had such an expression, it ant she had obtained so useful intelligence.
"They are all C-rank monsters. There is not a single D-rank among them."
"Yahoo! Then what are we waiting for! Brothers and sisters, it is ti to level up!"
Lan Qingyou's words thoroughly energized Gu Xiaobei.
Letting out a strange cry, she put away the torch, then pulled out a six-foot-long wooden object, and charged forward like a wild dog off its leash, rcilessly bludgeoning them.
Judging by its shape, Lan Qingyou thought it was highly likely a wooden spatula used for stir-frying food in massive woks.
After all, there were quite a few scorch marks on the spatula.
Although Gu Xiaobei was only level one, being a Tree Elf ant her Agility was at least fifty percent higher than these skeletons.
Beating them up was practically effortless for her.
Lan Qingyou even saw the girl grab a handful of sothing from her pocket and scatter it on the ground. Suddenly, vines grew wildly from the earth, binding the skeletons tightly so she could leisurely whack them.
The vines were very familiar; they were the common type found in the Abandoned Forest.
So the things she threw out earlier were vine seeds.
But after reviewing the information on these monsters, Lan Qingyou knew that Gu Xiaobei's attack thod had an inherent flaw.
"Gu Xiaobei, just stick to whacking the skeletons. The ghosts are immune to physical attacks! I will handle them."
After calling out this reminder, she hopped onto her Magic Broom and charged forward. Unleashing a purple Chain Lightning that paralyzed the leading five ghosts, she then deployed a hundred pink infantry golems to block the front line.
After all, among the seven of them, only the Priestess, Gu Xiaobei, and Li Huai were lee fighters capable of holding the front line.
Golems could be rebuilt if lost, but if a person died, it was truly over.
Especially that fool Gu Xiaobei.
A chef capable of making such delicious food absolutely could not drop dead in a place like this.
But truth be told, using Chain Lightning for the first ti felt incredibly effective, capable of striking even intangible monsters like ghosts.
Upon seeing these pink golems, the others were montarily stunned, but they soon recalled the golems in Lan Qingyou's possession and resud their attacks.
Upon seeing these pink golems, the others were montarily stunned, but they soon recalled the golems in Lan Qingyou's possession and resud their attacks.
Lan Qingyou did not stay idle either. Moving swiftly, she used Soul Siphon to harvest the Soul Crystals from these humanoid monsters.
These were all crafting materials! How could she let them just dissipate into nothingness?
That would be far too wasteful.
Waste was unacceptable!
With her Analysis Magic Eye active, Lan Qingyou stepped forward to use Soul Siphon whenever she saw a skeleton or ghost on the verge of death, making everyone else think she was kill-stealing.
Fortunately, in this kind of multiplayer battle, rewards were based on contribution. Everyone who participated got a share, and those who dealt the most damage earned more experience. Thus, no one actually minded Lan Qingyou's kill-stealing behavior.
Moreover, every ti she made a move, a crystal-like object would appear in her hand.
That indicated the beam she kept using to secure kills was likely a harvesting skill of so sort, giving everyone even less reason to question her kill-stealing.
After all, they were all researchers, and each had their own thods for acquiring research materials.
"Boss Lan, what is that crystal you have there?"
Throwing out a handful of seeds to entangle a skeleton, Gu Xiaobei asked, looking at Lan Qingyou with big, watery eyes.
"A Soul Crystal. To put it simply, it is the Soul Materialization of a monster."
"That sounds really impressive."
"It is not that impressive. It is just a C-rank skill. The damage is low, but it is highly insulting."
Lan Qingyou smiled with a hint of humblebragging.
But it was true.
If this skill were used on a human, it could indeed be considered an insult, or even outright torture.
But who asked these skeletons and ghosts to turn into monsters?
'Then they can only obediently beco my materials.'
The group worked tirelessly, frantically harvesting the skeletons and ghosts.
What everyone originally thought would be a steady, step-by-step dungeon raid had been turned into a chokepoint defense battle by Gu Xiaobei's single fire.
Everyone brought out their current trump cards, blocking the monsters at the dock and beating them back.
They struck down every single one that dashed out of the fire, and slaughtered any group that charged out together.
