"This doesn't seem right…" After giving it some thought, Li Huailin felt that this would be a little odd. After all, if he called someone who knew how to heal, and if they healed him to death, this would be a little too suspicious. Anyone would naturally feel that something was extremely wrong.
"Sigh, what should I do… I should have chosen to be a priest, I could level up just by constantly healing myself, but I can't change classes now…" Li Huailin said very regrettably.
Of course, while he was thinking about all these random things, he didn't stop the job at hand. After a while of violent and continuous slashing, the boss's health was already nearly at 50%.
"Be careful, when the boss's health is at 50%, it'll release a poisonous fog, the poisonous fog will continue for about 30 seconds or so. Only three spots of poisonous fog at most can exist on the field, the poisonous fog has a fixed damage of 100 Health Points per second, you need to immediately dodge it," Red Moon, who was gauging the boss' health, immediately informed Li Huailin.
"Oh, no worries. I'm not afraid." Li Huailin smiled, this boss was quite normal for a while, and now, it started to screw itself over again. Adding 100 Health Points per second… it would be hard to die even if he wanted to.
As expected, right when Red Moon finished speaking, the boss immediately swung the staff in its hand, a field of fog appeared. Moreover, it just happened to appear right in front of the Boss, enveloping both Li Huailin and Red Moon.
+100, +100…
Poisonous Fog: Decreases 100 Health Points every second.
The health that Li Huailin lost from the boss' attacks and Red Face Drinks Water's spell was immediately replenished. However, Red Moon's expression changed drastically, she hurriedly retreated away from the poisonous fog, and at the same, she very professionally took out a Health Potion from her inventory, lifting up her head and chugging it down.
"Oh sh*t! Why didn't I think of that!?" Upon seeing Red Moon chug a Health Potion, Li Huailin's body quivered in excitement again. "Red Moon, quick! Give me a Health Potion!"
"Isn't your health full?" Red Moon looked at the health bars displayed in the party information, Li Huailin's health was always at a maximum state. She asked him out of confusion, "And… don't you bring Health Potions with you when you go out?"
"Where's all this f*cking superfluous talk coming from? Give me a potion quickly," Li Huailin said in a rush.
"Here." Even though Red Moon was confused, she still approached Li Huailin and threw a potion over to him.
Medium Healing Potion: Regenerates 35 Health Points every second, continues for 6 seconds.
Healing potions were divided into two types, Normal Healing Potions which regenerate health over several seconds, and Instant Restoration Potions which immediately restores health. Instant Restoration Potions were valued at an extremely high price. At the current stage of the game, there were no alchemical recipes or blueprints, plus, it was also very hard to gather the materials required. This was why the majority of the players used Normal Healing Potions. Although the regeneration would take a few seconds for it to be fully effective, it was still prized for its cheapness, convenience to make, and, most people could afford to drink it.
Upon seeing that Red Moon handed over a Medium Health Potion, LI Huailin was genuinely delighted, and then, without any delay, he chugged it down.
-35, -35….
As what he expected, after chugging down the Healing Potion, a debuff appeared on his status bar.
Health Potion: Lose 35 Health Points every second, continues for 6 seconds.
"Sweet!" Li Huailin swung his sword fiercely, this just happened to shave off the pitiful boss, Serpent Manipulator Durjash's last sliver of health.
"Serpent God… have you abandoned your people…" Serpent Manipulator Durjash had regret written all over its face when it knelt down forward, it then hacked out a mouthful of blood before finally falling to the ground and laying there limply.
Battle Record: Your party has killed the Viper Cave's second boss, Serpent Manipulator Durjash, lost 450 Experience.
System Notice: Dungeon cleared, calculating final evaluation.
System Notice: Dungeon clear time, 27 minutes and 21 seconds, 75% Completion, Final evaluation B, reward 800 Experience.
"Yay! We completed it!" Red Face Drinks Water was the first one to start jumping up and down.
She didn't expect that there would be someone happier than her. Just when Red Face Drinks Water started jumping up and down, Li Huailin ran over and hugged her.
"Oh sh*t! I can finally level up!" Li Huailin said with excitement across his face.
System Notice: You seem to have been harassed by the player 'Open-Minded Like A Forest', would you like to use the system's Heavenly Thunder to punish this player?
Red Face Drinks Water was startled at first, then the system notice immediately pulled her back to her senses.
"Ah, I can't strike brother-in-law to death!" Red Face Drinks Water's first reaction was this, but her face immediately blushed, "Brother-in-law, how can you do this… Sister's still right there…"
On the other hand, Red Dust Misty Rain was also quite happy to have passed the dungeon, however, right when she saw Li Huailin embrace Red Face Drinks Water, her expression immediately darkened, she walked over in a large stride and shouted, "Hey! Pervert! Let go of Little Water!"
"You guys split the equipment, I suddenly have an urgent matter to attend to, I'm leaving now, let's talk next time." At this time, Li Huailin couldn't care less about letting go or not. With this said, after he released Red Face Drinks Water, he quickly ran towards the dungeon's entrance—of course, Li Huailin, who had never been to the miscellaneous goods store, had no way of knowing that there was such a convenient thing like the Scroll of Town Portal. Fortunately, this dungeon wasn't too far from the main city and Li Huailin knew the way back. Without any further delay, he bolted straight back.
"This guy, he runs so fast!" Looking at Li Huailin who just suddenly ran off, Red Dust Misty Rain stomped her feet in resentment. She then immediately walked to Red Face Drinks Water's side. "Are you alright? Why didn't you strike that pervert to death?"
Red Face Drinks Water still had a blushed expression on her face, she didn't know how to respond to Red Dust Misty Rain. She simply thought, 'I didn't think that older cousin's words were true, brother-in-law is really a pervert…"
"Hm? Hm?" On the side, Red Bloodstain, who constantly teased Red Dust Misty Rain as a living, suddenly approached them, she said this while harboring evil intentions, "Why do I feel like someone's so nervous, jealous much? Jealous of your own younger cousin?"
"Ah!" Red Face Drinks Water cried out in surprise at first, and then, she nervously looked at her own older cousin. "Cousin, there's nothing between me and brother-in-law, you… you're mistaken."
"What are you saying? I don't have any relationship with him!" Red Dust Misty Rain felt quite anxious, her words slowly losing their clarity, "I'm just worried about Little Water, this has nothing to do with being jealous!"
"Alright, alright, let's stop talking for now." Red Moon clapped her hands to get their attention. "Anyway, split up the equipment and then we can talk about love after we get back."
"We're not going to talk about love!" Red Dust Misty Rain said hurriedly.
"Okay, I'm going to search the corpse," after saying this, Red Moon lowered her head and began rummaging around the dead body.
"There's a piece of blue equipment." A blue ray of light flashed by, Red Moon's expression was filled with delight. Although she was the leader of a guild, she still had no blue equipment on her up till now. She didn't expect to find the guild's first blue equipment just after their first dungeon clear in this game.
Serpent Manipulator's Steel Breastplate (Silver): Plate armor, Physical Defense: 20-30, Magic Defense: 15-15, Strength +10, Constitution +10. Requires Level 15.
"Such good luck! This is also suited for tanks, a blue breastplate… this thing could probably be sold for more than 5 Gold Coins on the market right now, probably even 10 Gold Coins. After all, it's a divine item for progressing in dungeons, we won't have to worry about it not being sold," Red Moon said with a serious expression.
"Wow! Guild leader, you've got a fortune, hurry up and change into it." Red Bloodstain was also glad. If they had such equipment earlier, their guild would be a lot more confident in progressing through this dungeon.
"Huailin is also a warrior…" Red Moon said in consideration. "He brought us through the entire dungeon, with the equipment that dropped… if we took it without saying a word, wouldn't it be a little…"
"It's his choice to pursue our Little Misty, a little bit of contribution is necessary for his endeavors." Red Bloodstain said with a mischievous smile.
"Yes…" Red Moon frowned and didn't say anything.
"Guild Leader, if he wanted equipment, then he wouldn't have left before the corpse was searched." Upon seeing Red Moon's stern expression, Red Bloodstain also stopped with the banter and became serious. "I think he probably doesn't want the equipment here, don't trouble yourself over it."
"Bloodstain, don't you think that guy… is kind of strange in all respects?" Red Moon said this after some thought.
"No kidding, you think from the moment we saw him, there wasn't any aspect that wasn't strange?" Red Bloodstain forced a smile. "If he's not willing to say anything, we can't possibly put him in the spot with questions."
"I know, that's why I didn't ask." Red Moon laughed. "I just suddenly thought about what if this guy joined our guild…"
"Yeah." Red Bloodstain's eyes suddenly lit up, however, she quickly came back to her senses. "No, he's a man, our guild is an all-women one. Isn't that a little inappropriate?"
"Brother-in-law's coming to our guild? Hurray! Hurray!" Red Face Drinks Water suddenly interjected, "Playing with brother-in-law is too interesting. It'll definitely be fun if he comes to our guild!"
"No!" From behind, Red Dust Misty Rain shouted nervously, "Guild leader… our guild only accepts female players."
"Family members can also be accepted," Guild Leader Red Moon said with a snicker.
"What do you mean by family members? He and I really have nothing going on!" Red Dust Misty Rain denied any allegations.
"You see, I still haven't said whose family member, and yet, you've already confessed without being pressed," Red Moon laughed and said.
"What? I… I…" Red Dust Misty Rain couldn't think of what to say at the moment.
"Forget it you stupid child, at this rate, you probably won't get married even at my age. I won't count on you." Red Moon sighed. "Little Water, I have a mission for you, go drag your brother-in-law into our guild."
"Good! Good! Guild Leader you're so awesome!" Red face Drinks Water said excitedly.
