After Leaving The Team, The Adventurer Ladies Regretted It Deeply
/ After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply Chapter 228
Chapter 228: 203, all rock level captains: Go, we must go!
Lin Da's Poison Dragon's Roar indeed dealt 10,983 points of damage.
But Lin Da didn't signal his teammates to finish off the target. Instead, he raised his hand, signaling everyone to stop attacking.
This action made everyone, including Folie, question what was happening.
Shouldn't they attack fiercely when the White-Maned Lion is weakened and burst its equipment?
Why did Lin Da instead tell his teammates to stop?
“Eh, what's that?”
Folie noticed something unusual.
Around the White-Maned Lion, a group of purple teardrops circled.
Each teardrop was fist-sized, with a poison dragon totem carved on them. Every second, the poison dragon totem released a dense purple light, and the teardrops shattered in response.
The White-Maned Lion howled miserably, as if its eggs had been crushed, and its Life Barrier quickly weakened.
These mysterious purple teardrops totaled ten. If all of them were to shatter…
Folie suddenly realized: it was Lin Da's Ultimate Skill inflicting continuous damage.
The total damage of this Ultimate Skill could cause 40,000 damage to the White-Maned Lion, completely annihilating the magical creature!
That's why Lin Da asked his teammates to hold back.
The remaining attacks were completely unnecessary because the White-Maned Lion, though seemingly alive, was already dead!
As a result, there were even more question marks in Folie's head.
An Ultimate Skill from a level 21 adventurer inflicting 40,000 damage on a level 20 Rare Orange Level magical creature known for its tough hide?
Isn't that a bit unreasonable?
Folie's class was Jungle Hunter, adept with bows and daggers, serving as a mid-range damage dealer. His Ultimate Skill, Dark Stab, could only deal 20,000 damage to the White-Maned Lion.
If he remembered correctly, Lin Da's class was Healing Mage, a backline support.
Yet, Lin Da's damage was twice as high as his, a mid-range damage dealer?
Folie stared blankly at the broadcast screen: Could it be because this captain of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team had high ability points?
No, it probably wasn't that simple,
Folie thought, shaking his head internally.
Aside from ability points, there were two other factors.
Lin Da's Ultimate Skill was extremely powerful in itself, and…equipment!
Under the close view of the sensor ladybug, Folie could clearly see a pair of sparkling earrings on Lin Da's earlobes.
They were red and crescent-shaped.
Even with the naked eye, one could feel the powerful Magic Power flowing within the earrings.
Folie had read about them in books; they were jewelry crafted from the pincers of the Red Armored Crab King, the 'King Crab Set'!
Lin Da's Ability Points, the rarity of his Ultimate Skill, combined with the King Crab Set, resulted in damage that was downright double Folie's!
Of course, at this moment, Folie didn't know that Lin Da's weapon was the level 15 Azure Sword. Otherwise, Lin Da's damage could be further increased.
Professionals understand the intricacies, amateurs enjoy the show.
The majority in the hall were level 10 adventurers who just felt that Lin Da was awesome, but couldn't explain why.
“The damage from the Eye of True Knowledge is a bit high, huh!”
“They just entered level 20?”
“That pair of magic earrings looks familiar…”
At this time, the 'Dragon's Sorrow' encircling the White-Maned Lion shattered to the ninth teardrop.
The magical creature let out a mournful wail, like an old general who longed to die in frontal combat with the enemy but was shot in the back, unwillingly falling to the ground.
The lion transformed into white light and burst out one orange and four purple equipments.
Upon the successful monster hunt inside the World Tree, Divine Light appeared.
It fell atop the heads of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team.
At this moment, Lin Da and the others' levels rose from 21 to 23!
Folie's face grew serious.
He needed to hurry back.
To tell his captain, Robert.
Forget the flawed strategy.
Joining the Phoenix Tail Flower Team's promotion party was the priority!
Understanding human relationships was very important!
The hall was filled with the cheers of adventurers.
Lin and her prideful little hands akimbo said to Lady Bai Mian, “Impressive, isn't it? That's my brother!”
“Impressive…”
“Of course, because he's the brother of the great Lady Lin!”
On the eighth floor of the World Tree, the grey plains.
Lin Da silently felt the Magic Power within him growing stronger.
Having broken through three levels to reach level 23, his Dual Attack increased by over 100, and his health points by 800.
From the crafted Murderous Crab series equipments, he took a pair of earrings for himself and distributed the rest to his teammates.
Kafni and Monica, now equipped with the level 20 orange quality 'Crab General' weapons, saw further increases in their output.
Lin Da's growth was the most voracious.
The pair of earrings on his earlobes had the following attributes:
[Name: Sharp King Crab Earrings]
[Type: Equipment – Jewelry]
[Quality: Rare Orange Level]
[Level: 20]
[Attribute Points: Magic Power +500, Agility +30]
[Set: 2/2 (Achieved)]
[Set Attributes: Magic Power +300, Casting Speed +10%]
[Set Skill: Death Crab Pincer (Slash directly in front, when the opponent's level is not more than 10 levels higher than yours, deals 'high' True Damage, usable once every 24 hours)]
[Equipment Rating: 1445]
The other earring was named [Dull King Crab Earrings], with similar attributes, adding 480 Magic Power.
Just these two pieces of jewelry added 1,280 points to Lin Da's Magic Attack.
His original Magic Attack was only 1,250 points…
From this, one can see just how significant the upgrades equipment provide to an adventurer.
If Lin Da had only 1,250 points of Magic Attack, his Poison Dragon's Roar could not have inflicted a total of 40,000 damage on the thick-skinned White-Maned Lion.
It was precisely because he was wearing a pair of King Crab Earrings that his Dual Attack doubled, providing him such confidence.
With his original Magic Attack, hitting that Rare Orange Level white-maned lion would only deal around 20,000 points of damage.
If he were to use an Epic Weapon, that damage… it could only be described as too beautiful.
Beyond the tremendous increase in Attribute Points, Lin Da also gained the precious modifier of [Casting Speed +10%], further enhancing his combat ability.
And the most precious of all, the set skill, [Death Crab Pincer].
The same as the Red Armored Crab King.
As long as the target wasn't more than 10 levels higher than him, he could directly ignore their defense and deal True Damage.
Now, at level 23, Lin Da could affect all targets at level 33 and below.
This move was more suitable for inter-clan battles, targeting the frontline of adventurers rather than Magical Creatures.
Below level 33, all beings were equal.
After confirming his own Attribute enhancement, Lin Da and his team members approached the mountain of Gold Coins.
Acquisition of spoils of war:
A Rare Orange Level spear of level 20.
Two Purple Equipment hammers of level 20.
A Purple Equipment breastplate of level 20.
A pair of Purple Equipment boots of level 20.
Lin Da allocated the breastplate and boots to Kafni and displayed the rest as spoils of war at the party.
If anyone wanted them, they would simply sell them directly, avoiding the middleman markups of a merchant.
Then, they easily killed the guardian BOSS of the eighth floor, the Silverback Great Ape.
System notifications popped up in front of Lin Da:
[Cleared by taking less than 10 hits: Completed. +2 Stars]
[Killed the hidden Magical Creature, the white-maned lion: Completed. +2 Stars]
[Single skill damage above 30,000: Completed. +3 Stars]
[Completed with a team of four or fewer: Completed. +2 Stars]
[Dark attribute accounts for the highest damage in the team: Not Complete]
[Total: 9 Stars]
[Ultimate Clear achieved!]
Lin Da nodded silently, it was just as he expected, an Ultimate Clear with nine stars.
For a Perfect Clear with ten stars, he'd have to increase his box… um, in this context, it should be called the diversity of his team members.
He needed members of all attributes.
Like in the third floor challenge, which required the highest Thunder Attribute output.
If Lin Da had a member of each, Thunder and Dark Attributes, he could overcome this challenge.
“For Thunder Attribute, I could recruit that short one, and there are quite a few with Dark Attributes, Lin Xi, Tina, they all have Dark Attributes.”
“Tina, as a character with human rights, even has Light and Dark Dual Attributes.”
Lin Da pondered to himself.
One day, his team would reach a point where they had all attributes covered.
This triple clear made his level reach 23, with an experience bar of 100,000/150,000.
He could break through to level 24 with Mystical Points.
But Lin Da held back, saving them for a crucial moment when leveling up would replenish health points.
At this rate, by the day they break through the fourteenth floor, the Phoenix Tail Flower Team could all be Star Rank.
Lin Da was full of determination.
A bright future was beckoning to him!
“That's all for today's strategy session, and I hope everyone has gained something.”
“Also, if you're free tomorrow, please do attend the Phoenix Tail Flower Team's party. We have prepared drinks and fine food, waiting for you to grace us with your presence.”
The Lin Da on the screen beamed with a friendly smile.
However, several Rock Level Team captains in the hall were sweating bullets…
Just a short while ago, they considered sending team members to make a perfunctory appearance, thinking it would suffice.
Meanwhile, Folie hurried back to the Valiant Adventure Team's villa, burst into Robert's room, and said excitedly, “Robert, we must go to the Phoenix Tail Flower Team's party tomorrow!”
Robert was discussing the strategy for the fourteenth floor with the team commander, deeply engrossed.
“No time, we're busy here.”
“I said it's enough if you go alone. The vice-captain's presence should be sufficient. Lin Da represents the new generation, he wouldn't care for such outdated and useless formalities, would he?”
“Uh, captain, I don't think so.”
“What? Weren't you of the same opinion this morning?”
Robert looked up, puzzled, at the sheepish Folie.
Folie explained: “Lin Da has reached the eighth floor.”
Robert: “?”
Folie: “The Phoenix Tail Flower Team is now all at level 23.”
The team commander, a young woman, also looked up in surprise.
Just yesterday, the Phoenix Tail Flower Team was only at level 21.
Folie grimaced as he said: “That… Lin Da's Ultimate Skill can deal around 40,000 points of damage.”
“What?!”
Robert and the team commander both stood up with a thud!
“It's at noon tomorrow, right? Go, we must go!”
“Tell the team members, we're not going for field training tomorrow. Everyone gets a day off to attend the Phoenix Tail Flower Team's promotion party!”
Robert spoke with spit flying everywhere.
He initially didn't want to go, as he thought Lin Da was not the kind to hold onto old customs.
But what if he was?
Robert didn't want to risk being resented by the Phoenix Tail Flower Team for his absence.
Maybe Lin Da was magnanimous.
But what if he wasn't?
Considering the potential Lin Da had shown, Robert decided it was worth it to give the whole team a day off to attend the Phoenix Tail Flower Team's promotion party.
Similar scenarios were occurring in other adventure teams as well.
The Light Adventure Team, Slay the Evil Dragon Adventure Team, Black Bear Adventure Team…
The captains of these older, Rock Level adventure teams uniformly changed their decisions: They had to go, and the whole team had to go, to show their regard for the Phoenix Tail Flower Team!
