"Everyone follow me, but don't run in front of me. Wait until the monsters see me, then follow up." As soon as they entered the dungeon, Li Huailin immediately rushed towards the first group of monsters without stopping for a moment.
"Hey, Huailin, the buffs haven't even started yet," Hongyue said as soon as she entered and saw Li Huailin engaging the monsters.
"Just ignore it for now, follow me," Li Huailin said while he swung his sword and landed a 450-point damage hit on the first green snake that approached. Although Li Huailin's attack had improved, the monsters in the Abyssal Dungeon had also leveled up and had strong defenses, so the damage didn't change much.
Originally, Li Huailin could have killed the first green snake with two or three strikes. Even though the monsters in the Abyssal Dungeon had higher levels, they couldn't withstand Li Huailin's abnormal attack power for long. However, Li Huailin didn't do that. After striking the first monster, he immediately attacked the second green snake. After one strike, he attacked a red snake. He didn't kill any of the three snakes, but they kept chasing him. Li Huailin had no intention of killing the three snakes; after hitting each one, he immediately rushed towards the second group of monsters.
Soon, the three snakes had attacked Li Huailin more than five times each, and the poison damage increased to 125 health points every five seconds. With three snakes, that meant Li Huailin gained 375 health points every five seconds, far more than the damage the snakes could inflict. In short, although the snakes were frantically chasing and biting Li Huailin, they were essentially three small health packs for him.
The women behind him were completely confused about what Li Huailin was doing. He hadn't finished the first group of monsters and was already running towards the second group, dragging a few tails behind him. Wasn't that more dangerous?
"What is he doing?" Hongchen Yanyu couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know," Hongyue replied, completely baffled. She then added, "Let's follow and see what happens. I think he has a plan."
Hearing the guild leader's words, the women nodded and followed Li Huailin, keeping a bit of distance.
Li Huailin quickly reached the second group of monsters. He did the same thing, striking each monster once and then dragging them along to the third group.
The Abyssal Dungeon wasn't very large, but the monsters were densely packed. If a regular team cleared the dungeon one group at a time, it would take about 45 minutes to an hour. Li Huailin's last normal dungeon run, thanks to his abnormal attack power, took only about 20 minutes. If there were time statistics for normal dungeons, he would have scared a lot of people.
This time, Li Huailin didn't stop to fight the monsters. He struck each one and dragged them along, taking only about 7 minutes to reach the first boss, the Great Serpent Dusla.
Now, Li Huailin was followed by a sea of red and green snakes, densely packed and fiercely chasing and biting him. This made Hongpiao, who had a slight fear of dense objects, feel a bit nauseous.
However, Li Huailin had no intention of dying. In fact, his buff bar was filled with various healing poison buffs, so many that even Li Huailin couldn't count them. His battle log was flooded with damage and healing information.
"Start the boss!" Li Huailin said as he stepped forward and struck the boss, waking it up.
"Hisss!!" The Great Serpent Dusla looked the same as in the normal dungeon, but its skills seemed to have changed. Seeing Li Huailin approach, Dusla opened its mouth and shot a green liquid at him, a skill not seen in the normal dungeon.
With a "slap," the green liquid hit Li Huailin. A 327-point direct damage appeared above his head, and a new attribute appeared in his buff bar.
Corrosive Armor: Increases physical defense by 2-2 points every 10 seconds, lasting 30 seconds.
"This skill would be unbearable for a regular player," Li Huailin thought. For a regular team, losing 2 points of physical defense every 10 seconds would mean a 60-point reduction in physical defense after 5 minutes, which would be a devastating blow to players at their current gear level. The more they fought, the more likely the boss would wipe the team, especially if the tank took a physical critical hit and fell, leading to a wipe.
However, this skill was useless against Li Huailin and even increased his physical defense. This made the snakes' bites even less painful, but it didn't reduce the healing from the poison, which was a huge help.
The skill increased every 10 seconds, not all at once. Li Huailin decided to let it increase his physical defense and head straight for the second boss.
"Everyone follow me, we're going to take out the second boss directly," Li Huailin shouted to Hongyue and the others behind him.
By now, Hongyue and the others had already experienced their first shock, so although they were still surprised, they had adjusted. However, Hongpiao, who was experiencing her first dungeon run with Li Huailin, was completely stunned and had been following him in a daze, unsure how to react.
Hongyue and the others understood what Li Huailin was doing. This was a full-speed rush. They were already shocked, but before they could recover, Li Huailin was already dragging the first boss along.
"Brother-in-law, aren't you going to fight the Great Serpent?" Hongyan shouted from behind.
"Leave it for later, we'll take out the second boss first," Li Huailin replied and continued running. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he saw a wooden chest next to a group of small monsters behind the boss.
"Guild leader, there's a chest over there," Li Huailin immediately pointed and shouted.
"Right, that's a treasure chest. It will drop a blueprint," Hongyue said, excited. Any blueprint would be good for their guild, and the Abyssal Dungeon had a higher chance of dropping chests compared to the normal dungeon.
Without hesitation, Li Huailin rushed towards the group of small monsters, striking each one to stabilize the aggro and then dragging them along. After the first boss, the small monsters included some humanoid monsters that didn't stack poison and couldn't heal Li Huailin, but the previous snakes had already given him a terrifying amount of healing, so Li Huailin's health didn't drop.
"Stay behind and open the chest, then catch up," Li Huailin said and immediately rushed towards the next group of monsters.
"Got it," Hongyue nodded, understanding that Li Huailin was trying to speed through the dungeon.
Thus, with the small snakes continuously healing him and the first boss continuously increasing his defense, Li Huailin smoothly dragged the entire family of monsters to the second boss, the Abyssal Snake Handler Derjash.
Li Huailin looked terrifying, with a large group of monsters of all sizes chasing him, but in reality, he hadn't lost any health, and his physical defense was continuously increasing.
Seeing that Hongyue and the others hadn't caught up, Li Huailin couldn't wait and rushed towards the Snake Handler Derjash.
