Chapter 28: Astonishing Flying Tiger King

After killing the last Skeleton Soldier, Liu Ming began to idle around. Liu Ming had somewhat guessed Flying Tiger King’s intentions. Since Flying Tiger King did not want him to intervene, Liu Ming did not take the initiative to offer help.

After all, their cooperation was solely built based on interests. There were no feelings involved.

However, a few system messages popped into the team channel again at this very moment.

[System Alert: Strong Tiger King has died in action.]

[System Alert: Hungry Tiger has died in action.]

[System Alert: Mischievous Tiger has died in action.]

…

In just a few seconds, Liu Ming saw seven death alerts.

Including the six deaths of Flame Tiger and the others previously, the entire team lost 13 members in total.

In regards to difficulty level, God Domain’s dungeons were divided into five categories: dungeons for teams of five, ten, twenty, fifty, and a hundred members.

This hidden dungeon happened to be a mid-scale 20 member dungeon. In other words—excluding Liu Ming—only six members were left in Flying Tiger King’s team.

Under normal circumstances, a team’s strategy would be considered a failure once two-thirds of their team members died in the face of the first Boss-level monster.

Flying Tiger King clearly thought the same as well. Hence, he quickly sent Liu Ming a message via the team channel.

[Flying Tiger King (Team): Big Shot Floating Cloud, we have suffered too many casualties. I’ll have to trouble you to withdraw with us and try again from the start once more.]

[Flying Tiger King (Team): Of course, we’ll give you an extra 300 Gold Coins as compensation for wasting your time.]

…

A compensation of 300 Gold Coins was quite a considerable amount. After all, the operation fell through during the first stage. Thus, Liu Ming did not waste much energy.

In fact, Liu Ming even earned plenty of EXP. However, Liu Ming did not have plans to withdraw and start all over again for now.

Hence, Liu Ming immediately replied to Flying Tiger King and told him about his thoughts.

[Floating Cloud (Team): We don’t have to start over. I can deal with that Boss-level monster, but I must take all of its drops.]

[Floating Cloud (Team): I also want 20% of the drops from other Boss-level monsters we encounter later.]

After Liu Ming sent out these two messages, he thought that the Flying Tiger King would hesitate for a while, as he had before.

In the end, Flying Tiger King replied to Liu Ming rather quickly.

[Flying Tiger King (Team): Big Shot, if you can really take us through this dungeon, you may have all the drops from the Boss-level monsters.]

[Flying Tiger King (Team): We only want some special materials and quest items.]

Liu Ming was slightly surprised at Flying Tiger King’s quick reply. However, Liu Ming soon understood that Flying Tiger King was just being eager. After all, they wouldn’t have even survived that wave of skeletons just now without Liu Ming, let alone fight the Boss-level monsters.

Besides, Flying Tiger King also understood that his teammates really could not make the cut after being attacked by the Hellhound Boss. Hence, they could only cozy up to someone powerful.

Of course, Flying Tiger King agreed so readily because he did not know about Liu Ming’s talent. They thought that they would get one or two pieces of Purple equipment in this dungeon at most.

Once Liu Ming made numerous items drop from the monsters, regret would probably overwhelm Flying Tiger King. However, other than the World Guild, most of the major guilds’ elite players valued promises greatly.

This was also the reason why Liu Ming was not afraid of Flying Tiger King going back on his word.

…

When Liu Ming and Flying Tiger King met again, only four members were left in Flying Tiger King’s team. Other than Flying Tiger King, the other three members’ Health Points had also plunged to a dangerous level. They could be easily killed by the Hellhound Boss at any time.

Upon seeing this, Liu Ming immediately said, “You guys stay back. I’ll just deal with this Boss-level monster on my own.” After saying that, Liu Ming got into the right state and began attacking the Hellhound Boss.

The Hellhound Boss looked like a pair of massive, menacing canine magical beasts that had been forcefully conjoined again after being separated.

Half of the entire Hellhound’s body and head had rotted to the point its bones were exposed.

Coupled with the Hellhound’s large body and the bluish-black flames around it, the Hellhound looked absolutely terrifying.

Double-headed Hellhound: Level 15 (Leader-level)

Health Points: 54,201/60,000

Introduction: It is said that these monsters from the underworld are the descendants of the three-headed Hellhound, Kerboluss. Their bodies are superior compared to those of ordinary beasts. They even have Hellfire that can burn everything, thus proving that it is not an unfounded legend.

The elites led by Flying Tiger King were undeniably capable.

It was a remarkable feat to deal 6,000 damage to the Hellhound Boss after suffering six unexpected casualties. However, Flying Tiger King and the rest would have to advance to Level 15 and get a good set of equipment before they could have some hope of killing the Hellhound Boss successfully.

However, Flying Tiger King and the others would have to grind for more than half a month at least to reach Level 15, even with the daily dungeons.

Besides, the Hellhound was just the first Boss-level monster. What if they encountered even stronger Boss-level monsters later?

This was probably one of the reasons why Flying Tiger King would rather be a loiterer and clear the dungeon right now while only taking the quest items.

…

Liu Ming quickly rushed in front of the Hellhound and slashed the Hellhound’s body with his longsword, which glowed with a glistening white light.

Long-range Raid!

-2,887

Berserking Slash!

-1,580

-3,921 (Critical Hit)

-1,597

…

With Holy Blessing’s additional damage boost against Dark Creatures, Liu Ming made the Hellhound lose at least 2,000 to 3,000 HP with just one strike.

If he managed to get a Critical Hit, the damage done would be spectacular.

After Liu Ming attacked the Hellhound Boss with a few of his Skills, the Hellhound Boss’s health bar decreased by half.

Although Liu Ming had also been struck by the Hellhound Boss a few times, he only lost 1,000-odd Health Points.

Now that he had almost 4,500 HP and nearly 9,000 Energy Points with Holy Protection, the lost HP barely had affected Liu Ming.

The terrifying comparison made Flying Tiger King—who was quietly watching the show previously—spout vulgarities. “Damn it! Is he a humanoid Boss-level monster!?”

After spewing out vulgarities, Flying Tiger King finally reacted. Upon realizing that it was detrimental to his mature and stable image, he hurriedly looked at his teammates guiltily.

Fortunately, the three players had long been shocked speechless by Liu Ming’s achievements. They did not notice their leader ruining his own image.

After discovering that, Flying Tiger King hurriedly put on an expression that seemed to suggest that he had seen many major events and that something like this would not make him lose his composure. He then kept his eyes fixed on Liu Ming, who was beating the Hellhound up alone.

However, just as Liu Ming was killing the Hellhound Boss, Flying Tiger King once again ruined the composure he had painstakingly maintained.

Upon seeing the dazzling rays of bluish-green light—mixed in with two rays of purple light—Flying Tiger King couldn’t help but curse. “Damn it! You’re playing on a private server, aren’t you!?”
