Chapter 76: Super Hard Turtle, New Record
Following behind the skeleton army, Lin Moyu walked through the dangerous Mutant Forest as if on flat ground.
Though there were many monsters in the forest, they were too scattered.
Lin Moyu didn't even bother to pull monsters.
It was better to just kill them directly. Without using skills it took three strikes, with skills it took two.
The efficiency wasn't low.
It was a complete steamroll.
Lin Moyu even had to jog to keep up with the skeleton warriors' pace.
"Huh? Are there no boss monsters in this dungeon?"
Advancing all the way through, they hadn't encountered a single boss monster.
At most they ran into two wolf packs.
The skeleton warriors surrounded and slaughtered them directly.
Lin Moyu didn't even have time to use Corpse Explosion. By the time he caught up, the battle was over.
To Lin Moyu, this dungeon seemed even simpler than the West Sea Mine dungeon.
However, the dungeon map was very large with no sense of direction. Lin Moyu nearly got lost several times.
After wandering in the dungeon for 30 minutes, they finally reached the end.
A fairly large pond, with several huge fierce beasts napping by the water.
He had seen wolf packs, dog packs, and snake nests before.
But this was the first time seeing a monster group of tigers and bears together.
"This really defies common sense."
"Mutated fierce beasts actually gathering together."
"Could they have gained intelligence?"
Before him were two bears and two tigers forming a monster group.
The bears and tigers were especially large.
The bears in particular were about 5 meters tall when standing.
Though surprised, in Lin Moyu's eyes they were just experience points.
The skeleton warriors charged without hesitation.
There was no art to the battle, just simple and brutal encirclement and killing.
Lin Moyu didn't even have a chance to use Detection before the bears and tigers fell to the skeleton warriors' blades.
With a boom, a huge water column rose from the pond.
A massive turtle-like fierce beast crawled out of the pond.
The turtle wore a thick shell covering its whole body like armor.
The shell was over 5 meters in diameter, very large.
Its mouth opened to reveal a row of sharp fangs.
It also had a long whip-like tail covered in sharp spikes.
As the turtle crawled out of the pond, it let out a shrill roar.
[Mutant Dragon Turtle (Boss-level Monster)]
[Level: 19]
[Strength: 4000]
[Agility: 500]
[Spirit: 500]
[Constitution: 7000]
[Skills: Bite, Sweep, Super Defense]
This boss had extremely high constitution, surpassing the skeleton warriors and even higher than the level 24 Mermaid Queen.
Such high constitution meant very strong vitality and defense.
Its strength was slightly weaker, but still enough to damage the skeleton warriors.
While Lin Moyu was checking the Mutant Dragon Turtle's attributes, the skeleton warriors had already surrounded it.
Their blades struck the turtle shell, making metallic sounds.
The turtle bit fiercely at the skeleton warriors with its teeth, while its long tail whipped at them like a whip.
The size difference was huge. When hit by the tail, the skeleton warriors weren't much hurt but were sent flying by the great force.
The tail was usually retracted in the shell, but fully extended when attacking.
The tail was very long, at least 10 meters.
Each lash could hit several skeleton warriors.
Skeleton warriors jumped onto its back, constantly hacking at the turtle shell with their blades.
Its constitution was too high, with extremely strong defense and vitality.
Attacks landing on it didn't do much damage.
"Its agility and spirit are too low."
"No matter how high the strength, it's useless if you can't hit."
Red light appeared in Lin Moyu's palm.
Skill: Slow Curse!
A red light like a large net fell.
A red shackle symbol appeared above the Mutant Dragon Turtle's head.
Under the curse, its speed dropped sharply.
The Mutant Dragon Turtle's attack frequency halved, looking like it was moving in slow motion.
It seemed to realize its predicament was not good.
It simply retracted its whole body into the shell.
A faint light emanated from its body.
Skill: Super Defense!
In the faint light, Lin Moyu saw its wounds rapidly healing.
The skeleton warriors could barely damage it before, now they couldn't do any damage at all.
Even the previous injuries were recovering.
With extremely high constitution plus skill boost,
The Mutant Dragon Turtle had become an impenetrable fortress.
"There must be something I'm overlooking."
Lin Moyu thought.
If even his skeleton warriors couldn't beat it, other careers would have no chance.
How did others clear the dungeon then?
Lin Moyu suddenly understood where the problem was.
In the top three ranked teams, all the damage dealers were magic classes.
There were no melee or physical classes like archers.
"It's weak to elemental attacks."
Flames immediately appeared in his palm.
Skill: Soul Fire!
A flame also appeared above the Mutant Dragon Turtle's head.
The flame quickly sank into its body.
The previously motionless Mutant Dragon Turtle began struggling violently, letting out earth-shaking screams.
Lin Moyu was a mage after all. Besides the skeleton warriors' super strong physical attacks, his own magic skills were also very powerful.
Moreover, it was enhanced by 20 levels and ignored defense as a spirit attack.
Even more terrifying than elemental mages' elemental attacks.
Seeing it was effective, Lin Moyu continued casting Soul Fire.
The Mutant Dragon Turtle screamed continuously, its huge body shaking.
It finally couldn't bear it and tried to charge at Lin Moyu.
But the skeleton warriors firmly blocked it, giving it no chance.
When it stuck out its head and feet, the skeleton warriors seized the opportunity to attack, avoiding the shell.
Red light flashed on the skeleton warriors' blades as they activated skills.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere.
The Mutant Dragon Turtle's screams became more intense.
Lin Moyu cast Soul Fire again and again, rapidly consuming spirit power.
He took out a junior spirit potion and drank it directly to replenish spirit power.
The Mutant Dragon Turtle's vitality was too strong. Lin Moyu felt he might run out of spirit power before killing it.
Then they'd be back to square one.
Suddenly he thought of an idea.
"Flip it over!"
At his command, the skeleton warriors immediately exerted force together.
With their combined power, they flipped the Mutant Dragon Turtle over with a boom.
The soft flesh of its belly was exposed.
Without the shell's protection, the skeleton warriors found their opportunity. Each strike dealt significant damage.
The Mutant Dragon Turtle struggled constantly, but no matter how it struggled it couldn't flip back over.
Blood flowed everywhere, dyeing the pond red.
The Mutant Dragon Turtle's struggles grew weaker and weaker.
After three minutes of continuous attacks from the skeleton warriors, the Mutant Dragon Turtle was finally killed.
[Killed Mutant Dragon Turtle, Experience +150000]
[Obtained Bronze-grade weapon: Dragon Turtle Gauntlets]
[Obtained Bronze-grade armor: Dragon Turtle Heavy Armor]
[Obtained Low-grade Monster Crystal Core]
[Dragon Turtle Gauntlets: Bronze-grade, Strength +20, Constitution +20, Monk skill power +6%, usable after level 12]
[Dragon Turtle Heavy Armor: Bronze-grade, Constitution +30, Defense skill power +6%, usable after level 12]
Lin Moyu just glanced at the two bronze equipment pieces before putting them away.
Checking his experience, he had gone from 32.57% to 67% from this dungeon run.
An increase of nearly 35% experience.
One more run and he could reach level 18.
As Lin Moyu successfully killed the Mutant Dragon Turtle, bells suddenly rang out in the Dungeon Hall.
The bell sounds echoed throughout the Dungeon Hall space.
Ringing three times.
People both inside and outside the hall heard it.
"Wow, someone set a new dungeon record!"
"It's been a long time since a new record was set."
"Quick, let's see which expert it is. Good to know for future coat-tailing."
"Strange, I didn't see any elite teams enter earlier."
For a moment, no one was calling out anymore.
People outside the hall all rushed in.
Fortunately the hall was large enough to still be spacious after accommodating hundreds of people.
On the Mutant Forest dungeon, the light screen was emitting brilliant light, capturing everyone's attention.
A brand new record had appeared on it.
