Re: Evolution Online

Chapter 608 First Clear

With the new soul minions, the dungeon run began progressing a lot smoother. Wailing Ravine dungeon mainly had fish-type monsters in various shapes and sizes and the main threat was the number of these minions.

Normally, guilds would struggle to get through this dungeon because the difficulty varied depending upon the size of the guild party raiding the dungeon. If someone used a bigger party to tackle the bigger mobs, then mob size would further increase.

But Liam's case was completely different. He was technically only a single player so the difficulty of the dungeon was at the lowest level and the mob size was also manageable. So the dungeon was easier than usual as the group slaughtered their way through it.

With the number of minions reduced now, Liam was also getting a lot more experience points, at least in triple digits. More than that, it was impossible to obtain. This was also one of the weak points of the class, but something that could be easily solved.

Though the shared experience points were painful, the speed of the dungeon run definitely made up for it. In the span of a few seconds, the group was at the first boss.

It was a giant flying fish that hovered in the air. It opened its mouth to send some attacks but unfortunately, it didn't get the chance as Liam fried with [Sizzling Volcano] followed by a [Dark Cutter].

When the boss finished dealing with the two attacks, the other minions started pummeling it and without ever getting a chance to demonstrate any of its strong moves, the boss wailed for the last time before dropping dead.

After the first boss, the wailing mechanics part of the dungeon started as everyone was subjected to constant wailing sounds from the special structure of the dungeon as well as the weird type of fishes that were present in the ravine.

However, they had chosen the wrong party to target. Wailing or not, the soul minions couldn't care less. It did not affect them at all.

The main mechanics and headache the other players would face while running this dungeon fell on deaf ears as the undead continued marching on forward.

Soon, the second boss, the third boss, and the fourth boss fell and the end of the dungeon notifications sounded loud one after the other.

[Ding. You are the first to clear 'Wailing Ravine' on normal difficulty. Your grand achievement will be etched in history]

[DING. Kingdom Announcement: Congratulations to the 'Crimson Abyss' guild party for the first clear of the 'Wailing Ravine dungeon' on normal difficulty.]

[DING. Realm Announcement: Congratulations to the 'Crimson Abyss' guild party for the first clear of the 'Wailing Ravine dungeon' on normal difficulty.]

Liam also received a lumpsum of experience points for the dungeon clear which was again shared between his minions.

Thankfully, at least the experience points gained were decent because it was a level-appropriate dungeon. He dismissed all of the soul minions and then walked out of the dungeon with the resting fox still in his hand.

Splash. Liam appeared at the other side of the ravine, above the ground.

The five elven women sitting on the bank of the ravine immediately turned to look at him, but it was only a glance. The women then went about resting as they did not pay him any attention.

After all, the man had spent several hours, almost an entire day in the dungeon but there was only a small minute increase in his strength. It wasn't even visible.

When was this person going to become stronger and when was he going to rescue them and send them back to their elven kingdom? Everything was clearly wishful thinking.

Even the cavalry unit leader sighed in disappointment shaking her head. "Nothing special." She turned to look at the vast sky above which extended without any end in sight. It seems their stay in the human kingdom would also be like that.

Liam, on the other hand, was looking seriously at his status screen and doing some calculations.

From level 50 to 60, to cross each level he needed about 10 million experience points. The next jump came at 60 when he would need 15 million experience points to cross level 60 to 70.

And right now from a single dungeon run after sharing exp with forty of his minions, he was barely getting 10000 experience points. contemporary romance

This meant that for the 10 million experience points he had to run this dungeon… a thousand times!

Liam found himself oddly amused by the old-fashioned grind and looked forward to it. Though it was repetitive, his leveling speed at the moment was actually faster than when he was relying on the demon garrison. Except that now he had to put in the effort.

Liam grinned as he ducked down back into the dungeon again.

While higher difficulty modes had a lock on the number of times one could run a dungeon, the normal difficulty mode did not have anything like that.

So it was time to shut off the brain and go into grind mode for the next few hours. The elves also seemed to be doing fine so without any care he started the big grind.

<Ding. You have entered the dungeon Wailing Ravine>

<Ding. Warning! Warning! Warning! The minimum recommended number of players for this dungeon is 5 and the minimum recommended level is 50>

The notifications chimed in loudly for the second time and just like before Liam ignored it and started the fight. He let one of the chickens hold Luna at the back and he stood at the forefront.

While he was grinding he might as well multi-task. Leaving Crawford and the howler demon to do damage, Liam tanked the fight drawing full aggro onto himself.

But he did not use any special tanking skills. He simply forced the attention of the beast he was facing by doing the maximum damage.

Big fireballs flew left and right leaving behind dead fried monstrous fish and the water currents sizzled with lightning attacks. The flying fish might as well be fruit flies as Liam roasted them all ruthlessly.
