This kind of disturbance is probably not the first time, or rather, this phenomenon is very common within the Elven Empire.
After all, not everyone can tolerate the arrogant temperament of the Elf race.
Su Xi, Yan Hu, and the others followed the map downwards. The further they went, the more torches they saw, but they couldn't dispel the dense darkness underground.
"Boss Su, there are monsters wandering ahead, their levels are between 36 and 39, and they are all ordinary level monsters."
Su Xi looked in the direction Yan Hu was looking, but there was nothing there, just darkness.
"Can you see things beyond your field of vision?"
"Hmm... my talent is related to this."
Su Xi nodded, indicating that she understood.
We can't count on Yan Hu and his team for this battle. They're just there to solve the mystery and gain some experience.
After upgrading her weapon, Kurumi's attack power reached 4719 points, making it easy for her to kill these ghouls. Even if she encountered elite ghouls of level 40 or higher, Kurumi was confident she could handle them.
Because the [Divine Brilliance Crystal] also works on these monsters.
While the origin of this stuff is indeed disgusting, its powerful effects cannot be denied...
Moment.
Su Xi arrived at the open mine floor, where many ghouls, their bodies rotting and dropping sour black flesh as they walked, were rotting away.
Just as Yan Hu said.
These ghouls are generally the size of humans, are ordinary monsters, level 37, and have 80,000 health points.
Among these ordinary ghouls, there are also some larger, elite-level mini-bosses called "Ghoul Sentry," level 38, with 300,000 health points.
These seem to be minor monsters; there's at least one mid-level ghoul here that's level 40 or higher.
Generally speaking, elite bosses don't appear in front of players at the beginning. If this rule is violated, it means that there are higher-level monsters later.
Yan Hu, due to his talent, saw things more clearly.
Only about twenty ghouls were visible, but this only accounted for one percent of those that were not exposed.
Even soldiers like Yan Hu felt a chill run down their spines when they saw these zombie-like monsters, densely packed and waiting for them.
Moreover, these ghouls are powerful enough to kill them with a single claw attack. Can Boss Su handle them all by himself?
"Should we ask the God of War Guild to come over? It might not be easy for Boss Su to complete this mission by himself."
Su Xi glanced at him and asked teasingly, "Can you command the God of War Guild to do things?"
"Just give me the money," Yan Hu said calmly.
Money?
Hehe, the God of War Guild is not short of money.
Su Xi gave Yan Hu a smile that said, "I see right through you," which made Yan Hu frown.
"Ahem, Mr. Su, although I don't have a wife yet, you're too young. I don't think we're a good match."
The teasing look in Su Xi's eyes instantly turned into a speechless eye roll.
Dude, I don't even like your rock-hard muscles.
Then he jumped directly down the stairs to face the ghoul.
Yan Hu's teammates behind him let out strange laughter.
"Hey, Captain, you've caught the eye of a little girl?"
"I'm not saying this to be rude, Captain, Su is so cute, he must be even cuter in real life. The two of you together would definitely make the cutest height difference."
"Shut up, you lot." Yan Hu frowned, his expression remaining unchanged.
He said those things on purpose, trying to change the subject from Boss Su.
Yan Hu watched Su's retreating figure and muttered, "Could she know our true identities? Or did Cai Dao reveal our identities? Impossible..."
Lost in thought, Su Xi had already started fighting monsters.
Yan Hu didn't care about anything else and quickly ordered his men to throw stones to inflict some damage so they could gain experience.
As for trying to steal Su's monsters, that's almost impossible, since their stones only deal 1 point of damage.
"Waaaaah—"
Upon smelling the scent of living beings, the ghouls immediately became agitated, their strange cries echoing through the cave and even causing a riot among ghouls further away.
This is one of the ghoul's skills: if one small monster spots you, it's as if all of them have spotted you.
Su Xi knew that the time had come to test her DPS.
After getting far enough away from Yan Hu and the others, he activated his Soul Split talent, splitting Kurumi Incarnation and casting [Forbidden Curse] and [Witch's Favor] on her.
Then hide behind Kurumi and throw star bullets.
This is the most mana-efficient magic skill, and this Star Bullet spell can also deal bonus damage to ghouls.
After all, the main body's attack power has reached 5728 points, and the damage calculation method of Star Bullet is [Attack Power + Intelligence * 1.2]. In addition, with the passive effect of [Forbidden Curse], it is normal to be able to cause this damage.
However, Star Bullet is a single-target spell with a casting speed of 2 seconds per cast. With the added casting speed from equipment, that's 1.7 seconds per cast, averaging only 6500 DPS, which is nowhere near Kurumi's level.
When Kurumi Incarnation transforms and activates buff skills such as [Shadow], [Aleph], and [Third Bullet], her attack power instantly soars to 7304 points, and her attack speed reaches 2.3 shots per second.
Crimson bullets erupted, and the ghouls before them fell one after another like harvested leeks.
With the addition of the three clones, Kurumi Incarnation DPS reached (main body) + * 3 (clones).
In other words, it only takes a little over a second for four Kurumi to focus their attacks on a single Shiki.
Unfortunately, the effects of the Aleph and Third Bullet are too short-lived. After killing about twenty ghouls, the buffs wear off, and you have to wait for the skills to cool down before starting the next burst.
Although the damage output was halved after the Aleph and Third Bullet were gone, the damage still shocked the people Yan Hu brought.
"By the way, I remember the strongest Cleaver God of War in the God of War Guild only dealt about 2000 damage to monsters, right?"
"To be precise, against a monster with no defense, the sword aura skill can deal 3750 damage, and that's with the heavy weapon [Sheep Warrior's Hammer]."
"Tsk tsk, no wonder everyone in that guild calls her 'Big Boss Su,' she's so powerful, we can't even flatter her enough."
Those following Yan Hu threw stones to gain experience points while chatting idly.
Yan Hu: "..."
It's not that he doesn't want to care.
Clearly, half of the group was silently throwing stones, trying to hit the ghoul before Kurumi could kill it, while the other half were much more relaxed in their discipline.
Yan Hu knew they were all people assigned by higher-ups, so he didn't use the rules to require them to keep quiet.
Before long, some people in the crowd lit up with the glow of an upgrade signal. They were pleasantly surprised to be able to level up in such a short time.
Spending half a day doing tasks outside is not as good as gaining experience by staying by Boss Su's side!
"At this rate of upgrades, we should be able to catch up with Boss Su soon, right?"
"Heh, you wish. It only takes 45,000 experience points to go from level 10 to level 11, but do you know how much experience it takes for characters like Cleaver to level up?"
"How many?"
"Cleaver is currently level 35, and he needs 25.94 million experience points to reach level 36!"
"Wow, this is...!"
Someone immediately shook their head and whispered, "After all, Boss Su's combat strength is obvious to all. When these abilities are put to use in reality, do you still think this little bit of experience is much?"
The Childe men were stunned for a moment, then realized, "That's right."
If these abilities can be applied to reality, then what does having more experience matter?
Yan Hu and the others didn't pay attention to what the Childe master said, but whispered, "An elite monster has appeared. Quickly attack that elite monster and get more experience."
