They had never imagined Big Lethal would be so strong. He had turned the tables on them and used them as stepping stones to build his reputation...
The five minutes of preparation passed quickly.
From their hiding place in a corner of the bar, Nan Riri and his team once again watched "Adrian" enter the Hard Shell Bar.
Then the bartender fought dirty, firing at Big Lethal while he was drinking!
"Despicable! A sneak attack! Nicely done!"
"Big Lethal's only level 30. There's no way he can dodge a bullet at this range, right?"
"Holy shit!" cried all five of them.
"Big Lethal really didn't dodge? But the bullets didn't work?"
"What the hell is that ability? Some kind of spatial power? Phasing?"
As the players stared in disbelief, 'Scarface' Capone Bell gave the order to bombard the counter where "Adrian" stood. Blazing cannon fire swept across every inch of the Hard Shell Bar, yet none of it had any effect on Big Lethal!
The Hard Shell Bar rapidly became a ruin in the fierce exchange of fire, forcing the players to flee.
Then they witnessed just how ruthless Big Lethal truly was!
Twice.
Another instant wipeout dealt a crushing blow to Nan Riri's team.
We came here to play the dungeon, not to let the dungeon play us!
If nearly every player in the mission hall had not been in the same state, Nan Riri's team would probably have stormed over to the real Big Lethal upstairs and demanded an explanation!
Are you sure this dungeon is playable?!
Still, two runs—especially the second one, spent entirely observing from the shadows—had given Nan Riri's team a preliminary understanding of the ability types of what they called "newbie-version Big Lethal."
In short:
Attacks that killed in one hit.
Attack speed beyond
