Chapter 18 Boss, I don’t deserve to be a priest!
With this sum of money, Su Ming’s savings amounted to 52613 gold.
Even if it was used to trigger a hidden quest, there would still be more than 30,000 gold left.
20,000 gold was only one of the barriers to obtaining the gold-grade skill. He also needed to reach level 15.
“That’s right!”
Night Blade Flame seemed to remember something and sent out an invitation, “Brother, do you want to run the ‘Water Demon Palace’ dungeon with our guild members?”
“The【Rain of Life】scroll that I gave you earlier came from the normal difficulty ‘Water Demon Palace’ first clear reward. The highest nightmare difficulty first clear reward might contain a golden-grade scroll.”
“A gold scroll…”
After thinking about it, Su Ming felt that this opportunity could not be given up.
If he could obtain a gold-grade buff, his own strength would greatly improve.
“I accept your invitation.” Su Ming agreed, and he continued, “But what about the reward dropped inside the dungeon?”
“All healing scrolls belong to you, and you can also participate in the normal loot distribution. The remaining rewards will be distributed according to each player’s contribution inside the dungeon. Of course, you have the first say in this. So… what do you think?”
Night Blade Flame straightforwardly gave his conditions.
With Su Ming’s strength, most of the dungeon rewards would probably enter his pocket.
He knew very well.
Night Blade Flame did not care about the dungeon rewards. He wanted the first clear of a Nightmare Level dungeon.
That was all!
The opportunity to advertise to the world was worth more than 100,000 gold.
“Night Blade, I also know your purpose. But, these conditions are far from enough.”
Su Ming said in a deep voice.
Night Blade Flame took a deep look at him and solemnly proposed, “I agree to increase the price. As long as Brother Cang Hai leads the Night Blade Guild to obtain the First Nightmare Dungeon clear, I will definitely give you 500,000 gold!”
“Okay.”
Su Ming smiled and agreed to the invitation.
“However, I still only want gold or a precious item with equivalent price.”
“Then it’s settled.”
Night Blade Flame sent a message to the guild asking them to buy 500,000 gold as soon as possible.
Su Ming followed them to the entrance of the dungeon.
Three Minutes Later.
Everyone soon arrived at the destination. What stood in front of them were many broken walls, inside the ruins stood an eye-catching blue teleportation gate.
“Night Blade’s guild leader has invited a foreign aid?”
Everyone followed the sound and as he walked out of the crowd alone, followed by a pretty boy.
『Blue Night Wind Lv5』
『Drunken Rain Lv6』
When the crowd saw their names, the crowd began to discuss.
“F*ck, [Blue Night Wind] actually invited Ice God Drunken Rain!”
“Big deal! It seems that『Night』will definitely get the first clear in the『Water Demon Palace.』”
The corner of Drunken Rain’s mouth curled up slightly when he heard the cheers of the players.
As a mage in his previous life, Su Ming was quite familiar with him.
Drunken Rain was also named as the most disgusting mage.
His skill damages were normal, but it had various negative effects such as extreme slow and freezing.
The players couldn’t get close to him at all, as they were killed by his magic.
Of course, Su Ming wasn’t afraid of him at all. No matter how many negative effects there were, it would be useless if he couldn’t deal any damage.
At this moment, Blue Night Wind glanced at Su Ming’s ID and then mocked, “Guild Master Night Blade, I hope you’ll prickle your ears and listen carefully for the announcement ‘[Night] guild has cleared the first Nightmare Dungeon.’ ”
“Then I’m ready. Blue Night Wind, I hope the forigen aid you’ve hired will prove strong.”
Night Blade Flame’s expression was calm.
He even wanted to laugh. In his opinion, Drunken Rain was far weaker than Su Ming.
After all, there were too few people who had seen Su Ming’s battle scene.
Blue Night Wind snorted coldly and led the team into the dungeon gate.
“Brother Cang Hai, you can lead the team.” Night Blade Flame turned around and said.
The System Notification sounded out.
“Ding… you have been granted with the team leader’s permission.”
Su Ming walked to the portal and a screen popped out.
『Water Demon Palace』
Level: 5
Dungeon Type: Regional
Suitable number: 5-10
Number of teams: 1/8
Optional Difficulties: Easy, Medium, Advanced, Nightmare
Conditions for victory: The team that killed the ‘King of the Water Demons, Qiers’ will be considered as cleared.』
The dungeon difficulty was divided into five levels. Because the level of the Water Demon Palace was too low, it was not difficult to unlock the Nightmare difficulty.
“Ding! Please choose the difficulty level of the dungeon.”
“Nightmare.”
Su Ming decisively made his choice.
A light gushed out from the portal and enveloped everyone, sending them into the pocket dimension.
…
A huge palace stood in the center of the island.
Eight tunnels led from the ocean floor to the hall at the bottom of the palace.
“Zils” This was the name of the kingdom before him. It was also the name of the only ruler of the Water Demon race since ancient times.
【Current Location: Water Demon Palace(Nightmare) – Submarine Tunnel Entrance】
“Cang Hai, how are we going to fight?” Night Blade Flame asked.
Su Ming looked at the guard ahead.
【Water Demon Sentinel (Nightmare)】
Level: 5
Rank: Elite
HP: 4500
Attack:215
Physical Defense: 106
Magic Defense: 60
Skills: Water Arrow Lv4, Water Shield Lv4, Slash Lv5
Elite Aura: Provide 5% stats increase to all allies nearby.
As expected of a Nightmare Difficulty Dungeon.
The attributes of Level 5 Elite monsters were much more powerful than the ones outside. Their stats were catching up with the attributes of a Level 3 elite monster.
The elite players of the Night Blade Guild could only deal less than double-digit damage to them.
Thinking back to the clearance conditions.
“In order to clear the dungeon as soon as possible, we just need to behead the final boss. I’ll go look for the [King of Water Demons]. You all can kill the small mobs.”
“Ha? Brother, you’re a priest!” This was a member who did not know Su Ming.
“The Boss has more than 100,000 HP. Can you really solo the Boss?”
“If we go together, we can help you.”
The players from Night Blade Guild questioned him.
“No need. You’ll only slow me down if you were to follow.”
The players were immediately dissatisfied.
No matter what, they were elites of the guild. How could their strength be inferior?
Night Blade Flame did not say anything.
There were some things that had to be said as the saying “seeing is believing”.
The next moment, Su Ming had just walked out when the Water Demon Sentinel launched an attack.
『Arrow of Light!』
Su Ming waved his staff and a light arrow pierced through the air, instantly piercing into the water demon’s abdomen.
-372!
“F*ck, what kind of damage is this?!”
The players were extremely shocked.
『Berserk!』
After that, Su Ming rushed to Shui Yao’s side and swung his staff around.
-838 (CRIT)!
-838!
-838!
…
Looking at the red critical damages, the elite players of Night Blade were dumbfounded.
Too OP.
The priest swung his staff and struck.
T-this… what kind of supernatural damage was this?!
At this moment, the priest in the team who had initially questioned Su Ming felt ashamed, and envious at the same time.
