Online Game: I Have 48 Hours a Day - Chapter 22
Chapter 22: Set Off Again
Seuss wasn’t sure about the situation in the Desert Guild, but he knew about theirs.
The moment they entered the dungeon and walked out of the safe zone, Seuss and the others were immediately discovered by the monsters inside the dungeon. They were two treants with twisted vines hanging from their bodies.
The treant’s level was only at level 10 and it was an ordinary monster. However, with the buffs of the expert-level dungeon, it was even stronger than the elite monsters outside.
If there were only two level 10 elites, Seuss and the others wouldn’t have become like this.
The more difficult part was yet to come. When the health points of these two treants reached below 50%, they immediately started to howl with their extremely high pitch voices.
It was puzzling that a trunk made of trees could make such a piercing sound.
After that, eight treants rushed over at the same time.. Together with the two treants who were not dead yet, ten treants surrounded Seuss and the others. In just thirty seconds, Seuss and the others were completely wiped out.
There was a huge crystal screen in the hall of the City Defence Office. On it was the results of each team’s raid.
Desert Losers Party: Challenge Demon’s Den, Twisted Forest, Challenge Difficulty, Expert-Level, Challenge Progress: 1%, Challenge Counts: 1.
Desert Party: Challenge Demon’s Den, Twisted Forest, Challenge Difficulty, Expert-Level, Challenge Progress: 1.5%, Challenge Counts: 1.
“Desert Losers?” Desert-Lone Eagle was so angry he could barely speak. “Your progress is not even as good as ours, how dare you call us losers!”
Looking at the angry Desert-Lone Eagle, Seuss and the rest instantly put on the same expression, whistled, and left.
“Alright, it’s useless to argue now,” Desert-Gray Wolf said. Desert-Lone Eagle instantly quietened down, but his eyes were still staring at Seuss, indicating his anger.
Entering the dungeon again, the entrance fee for the two dungeons was 4 silver coins. If they were always eliminated this quickly, the expenses today would not be small.
After entering the dungeon, everyone stood still.
Each person had a small circle of light under their feet. Within this circle of light was the safe zone. As long as they stepped out of the circle of light or joined the battle, the safe zone would disappear.
After making a gesture, Seuss entered stealth mode.
Two treants were standing at the entrance of the dungeon. As long as they left the safe zone, they would be discovered.
They had just discussed how to move this time, and Seuss first led a treant away, leaving only one behind.
If there was only one treant, when the treant’s health reached 50%, Seuss would force the treant into unconsciousness and kill him before he woke up. This way, they would not be surrounded and attacked by a large group of treants like last time.
Seuss entered stealth mode and sneaked out.
As the others didn’t move, the protective circle under their feet didn’t disappear, and the treants didn’t notice them.
Right now, there were two treants wandering about less than ten yards away from the Sirius.
After Seuss entered Stealth mode, he did not walk directly towards the treant.
Even with Stealth Enhancement, he would still be discovered if he got too close to the monster.
Additionally, although the two treants before him were ordinary monsters, with the buffs of the expert-level dungeon, they were not inferior to the elites outside.
Their perception was definitely not weak. It was very likely that Seuss would be discovered before he could approach the treant.
Even though Seuss’s movement speed had decreased by half while he was in stealth mode, Seuss still managed to move thirty yards away from the treants after ten seconds as he head towards the left of the dungeon quickly.
At such a distance, the treant had no chance of discovering him. He used his dagger to lightly cut his arm, and Seuss voluntarily exited the stealth mode.
As expected, the two treants in the distance did not notice Seuss and were still wandering around mindlessly.
After taking a deep breath, Seuss paid attention to his feet as he slowly approached the treants.
It wasn’t until he was within twenty yards of the treant that it spotted Seuss. After a roar, it ran toward Seuss.
The roar also alerted the other treant, but it didn’t matter. These things were within Seuss’s expectations.
At this time, the cooldown of Seuss’s Stealth skill had already ended. When the treant had just started running, Seuss immediately entered stealth mode.
Stealth Enhancement did not only enhance the effect of Stealth, but also made it impossible to detect Seuss for a second.
It was at this second that Seuss exited the range of the treants’ perception.
After the two treants calmed down, Seuss took out the standard military crossbow that he hadn’t used for a long time and loaded three iron arrows.
Swoosh! Swoosh, swoosh!
The three arrows were split into two shots. The first shot was aimed at a spot forty yards away, while the other two were aimed at the treant approaching Seuss.
When they heard the first arrow, the two treants walked toward the arrow, but then the other two arrows quickly followed up and hit the closer treant.
The treant in pain immediately turned around and rushed towards where Seuss was.
“Impressive,” Daydreamer exclaimed. The others did not see clearly what was going on, but Daydreamer did. Stars was holding a repeating crossbow, and three arrows hit two different targets.
The first arrow drew the treants away, while the remaining two arrows separated the treants. When Seuss had used the crossbow earlier, he suddenly exerted strength in his hands and changed the direction of the bow. This kind of control was simply amazing.
Daydreamer recorded this down. This kind of video could not be released online without the person’s permission, but it could be spread privately.
Daydreamer wanted his friends to see what top marksmanship was. Of course, even if it was spread privately, Daydreamer would definitely ask for Seuss’s approval.
When the treant reached him, Seuss continued to walk further away, luring the treant further away. When he was more than fifty yards away from the original spot, he knocked the treant out with Staggering Blow and quickly left.
After meeting up with Madman, the original treant was still wandering around.
“Let’s begin,” Seuss said.
As soon as he said that, Heart of Holy Light and Madman walked out of the safe area together. The wandering treant immediately discovered them.
After a roar, the treant ran towards them. However, this time, there was no response from the other treant.
Madman braced himself against the shield and plunged the bottom of the shield into the dirt. That way he could withstand greater force.
The impact of the treant running was very strong. This was the basic ability that a shielder should have.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the treant slammed into the shield and a 40 plus damage appeared above his head.
A 20 plus damage value also appeared above Madman’s head.
Sirius’s fireballs and Heart of Holy Light’s greatsword continuously smashed against the treant’s body, while Seuss would occasionally stab him in the back.
However, Seuss did not use any skills. He only used his dagger to continuously attack the treant.
