Overgeared Chapter 288:
The 13th vampire city .
Pon and Regas had already explored this place, so they opened their mouths prior to entering .
“Once we enter here, we have to go down a 12m high cliff . There is no danger when climbing down the cliff, but there is a risk of falling down because it’s dark and steep . The people with less than 400 agility should move carefully . ”
“There aren’t any lights and it is dark, so you won’t be able to see anything for around two minutes . Your vision won’t be perfect after two minutes pass . The darkness places a limit on our mobility, so it will be difficult for us to exert 100% of our power . Ah, Jishuka and Faker have their passive skills Hawk Eyes and Assassin’s Eyes . ”
Vantner expressed his doubts .
“Why can’t we light torches if it is dark? Why are we trying to stay in the dark? Are we cavemen?”
“The vampires pay attention to fire . You will be isolated as soon as you turn on the torch . ”
“Ah, that’s right . I heard that before . ”
“Stupid . ”
Pon continued the explanation .
“There is a city half the size of Bairan below the cliff . The average level of the vampire familiars wandering the streets are well below the giant worms . However, combat capabilities depend on the existence, so be vigilant . ”
“Familiar? Where are the vampires?”
“The vampires are asleep in buildings scattered throughout the city . Once we enter a building, they will wake up . But there are rare cases of some of them ambushing us . ”
“Hrmm… The boss must be sleeping in one of the buildings . ”
“It’s a reasonable guess . We can only go through the buildings in order to find the boss . ”
“In the process, you should be careful of the True Blood vampires . Sometimes they pop up and they are much stronger than ordinary vampires . ”
“How so?”
“It was hard to kill them even if Regas and I joined forces . ”
“A field boss?”
“No, not that strong . If we don’t have divine power, we can’t do much damage . However, if all of us join forces, we should be able to easily defeat them . ”
Jishuka, Grid, Pon, Regas, Faker and Peak Sword, the most powerful damage dealers were gathered together . It was Pon’s judgment that they could exert attack power that could easily take care of the True Blood vampires .
“Okay . Immediately after entry, please pay attention to the darkness and cliff, and refrain from manifesting as much light as possible . The True Blood vampires… Quickly handle them . This should be enough?”
“Yes . ”
Grid did a final check on the status of the party .
Party Name: Pavranium Expedition
Party Leader: Grid (Pagma’s Descendant . Level 296)
Party Members List:
Pon (Spear Knight . Level 307)
Regas (Asura . Level 307)
Peak Sword (Hidden Sword) Level 306)
Faker (Master of Swiftness . Level 305)
Jishuka (Red Flame Archer) Level 305)
Vantner (Impregnable Fortress . Level 302)
Zednos (Storm Magician . Level 301)
Huroi (Orator . Level 292)
Item Distribution Method: Party Leader Acquisition
Thanks to enough rest, everyone’s health, mana, and stamina were full . The item distribution method was also correct .
“Let’s go . ”
Grid didn’t delay any longer . He entered the ant **** .
[You have entered the Vampire’s Underground City (13) . ]
[The entrance of the dungeon is blocked . Contact with the outside world will be blocked . ]
[You can’t escape the dungeon until you have died or kill the dungeon boss . ]
‘It is dark . ’
It was his first feeling after entering . There was a deep darkness that dominated the whole area . He would be confused if he didn’t listen to Pon and Regas beforehand . It was as the party was trying to adapt to the darkness .
Puduk . Kwaduduk .
“What…?”
They heard the sound of wings flapping, then hundreds of small red lights appeared in the darkness . It was countless bats flocking .
“Crazy! What is this? I didn’t think there would be an attack until we went down the cliff!”
The wrong information could be a big threat on the battlefield . Everyone could understand why Vantner cursed as he quickly set up his shield .
Teteng! Teteteteng!
[Grid’s Shield: Prototype A]
It was a shield based on the Divine Shield, and combined high defense and magical resistance .
He used black iron, which was relatively easy to obtain among the higher ranked minerals . The disadvantage was that it was heavy, but that wasn’t difficult for Vantner, who had abnormally high strength .
The hundreds of bats rammed into the giant black shield and scattered blood .
Kwajik!
There was a creepy sound as small skulls were crushed successively .
“Ugh!”
A groan emerged from Vantner’s mouth . He could block the bats flying in front, but he was bitten by the bats that fled to the left and right .
“Damn! Forcing me to use a skill so early! Guard of Steel!”
[For three minutes, physical defense will increase by 30% and there will be a 50% increase in resistance to stabbing and cutting . ]
Tatak! Tak!
Vantner’s defense became firmer . The small but sharp teeth of the bats no longer reached Vantner’s flesh . Jishuka and Faker were the first ones in the party to adapt to the darkness and they started supporting Vantner .
“Dancing Arrows . ”
Papat! Pa pa pa pat!
It was a skill associated with Multi-shot . Dozens of arrows were fired at the same time and rotated as they pierced the bats, changing their orbit . The bats were hit by the arrows flying in all directions and fell down the cliff .
Faker’s actions were also great . He threw 20 daggers equipped with an ‘Explosion Rune,’ turning the bats to ashes . By the time the rest of the party adapted to the darkness, most of the bats were already destroyed . Vantner sat down and gasped for breath .
“Pant… Pant, dammit . I almost died as soon as I came in . ”
“I’m sorry . I didn’t think the pattern would’ve changed . ”
The monsters in most dungeons had a constant position and behavior pattern . They thought it would be the same here . Vantner could no longer grumble after seeing Pon’s sincere apology . Afterwards, Grid’s group waited until Vantner had recovered his health . Vantner was the party’s only tanker, so his status was important .
“Easy, easy . ”
“Yes . ”
Once Vantner recovered, the group started descending the cliff . While everyone was struggling, Grid and Zednos could relax . They were able to use Fly magic . The two people were able to descend comfortably .
Taack!
The two people landed first below the cliff and looked around . It was to prepare for any enemies while the group was descending the cliff . Not surprisingly, there were five large wolves rushing in the distance .
“They are scarily large . ”
Their size was much larger than common wolves . It was at the level of a bear . But Grid and Zednos didn’t feel any fear .
[The +9 Failure has been equipped . ]
[The attack power of the +9 Failure will increase by 20% in dark places . ]
[The +8 Grid’s Boots has been equipped . ]
[The defense of the +8 Grid’s Boots will increase by 20% in dark places . ]
Grid believed in his items .
‘Grid is with me!’
Zednos believed in Grid . The wolves, who wanted to prey on the two people, quickly realized their folly .
Yip! Yelp!
[You have defeated a vampire wolf . ]
[490,800 experience has been distributed . ]
[You have defeated a vampire wolf . ]
[487,210 experience has been distributed . ]
[Vampire wolf leather has been acquired . ]
[Vampire Wolf Leather]
Very sturdy leather . If it can be tanned well, it will be a suitable material for making armor .
Weight: 15
The experience was quite good considering it was being shared by nine people . Indeed, the vampire cities were good places to level up .
‘There are three tailors in the Silver Knights Guild right?’
Grid could also make leather armor . But several experiments showed that the performance was considerably worse than when he used minerals . From Grid’s perspective, it was more profitable to make things other than leather armor .
“Why don’t we distribute the various materials among the guild members and give them requests? We will sell the items made from these materials and raise the guild’s profits . There will be a separate reward for the makers . ”
Grid gave his opinion to the people who descended the cliff . It was rare for Grid to have such a plan . No, it was the first time, so his impressed companions nodded their heads . Pon and Regas were silent for a moment at the sight of Grid’s further growth, but then they expressed their concerns .
“It’s strange . The atmosphere is different from when we came here before . ”
“The bats and vampire wolves weren’t here before . The environmental radius of the familiars is much wider than before . The experience given has also increased by 10% . ”
Regas was talking when Pon suddenly asked Grid about his quest contents .
“You said that strange energy is coming from the vampire cities?”
“Yes . ”
“This is the problem . The strange energy seems to have increased the difficulty of the vampire cities . ”
Gulp!
Peak Sword was nervous . He worried about this expedition failing . However, the other Overgeared members were grateful . If the difficulty had gone up…
“There is a higher probability of huge benefits!”
“That’s right! Level up speed will be fast!”
“…”
It was difficult for the tense Peak Sword to understand the mindset of the Overgeared members . He was stunned and swept away in their flow . They called the familiars roaming the streets, accumulating experience and items . Then they were soon standing in front of an old-fashioned gothic high-rise building .
“There are around 10 of these buildings?”
They had to search the buildings quickly and thoroughly in order to kill the boss and secure the pavranium . The moment Grid tried to open the huge door of the building .
[The master of the 13th city, Vampire Earl Elfin Stone has appeared . ]
[A strong evil influence is making your magic power turbid . All types of spells and skills aren’t available . ]
[A vampire’s gaze will subdue lower species . Your body is subjected to a strong oppression . ]
The notification windows simultaneously appeared in front of Grid’s party .
Sururuk .
Black smoke appeared over Grid’s head . The blond handsome man who emerged from the smoke was more beautiful than jewelry .
“Humans dare enter my city! Polluting the air!”
Elfin Stone had a story . It was around a month ago . He woke up after a few months of sleeping, only to find his city a wreck . He heard from his subordinates that it was due to two crazy humans . Humans dared invade a vampire’s city with just two of them?
It was ridiculous and reprehensible . The incensed Elfin Stone couldn’t sleep properly for the past two months . He was so angry that he couldn’t sleep well . Today, he got only 18 hours of sleep and went out for a stroll . However, he discovered some humans . It was a great opportunity to get rid of his anger .
“Die so that I can sleep!”
Elfin Stone aimed his strongest skill at the man who seemed to be the strongest among the humans .
[Extreme Blood Transfusion]
It was a terrifying attack and recovery skill that restored his health by taking away large quantities of the target’s health . The disadvantage was that he could only use it once a day, but it was suitable for scaring these trivial beings .
Puhahahak!
The human male was covered by a curtain of blood . He would certainly die! Elfin Stone was certain of it .
“Kukukuk, I will come back in awhile . I will kill another person, and then another one the time after that! This will be repeated again and again . I will show you the extreme taste of fear!”
Suruk!
Elfin Stone turned into smoke and disappeared . At the same time, the blood curtain was lifted . Grid emerged alive from it .
“What the **** is this?”
The mighty passive with a 24 hour cooldown time had been lost . But he lived .
Grid and Elfin Stone, both of them were floored .
Pon and Regas had already explored this place, so they opened their mouths prior to entering .
“Once we enter here, we have to go down a 12m high cliff . There is no danger when climbing down the cliff, but there is a risk of falling down because it’s dark and steep . The people with less than 400 agility should move carefully . ”
