"Ding!"
"Congratulations on obtaining: Bone Armor (Bronze)."
"Congratulations on obtaining: Bronze Coin x50."
"Congratulations on obtaining: Bone Wrist Guard (White Iron)."
"Congratulations on obtaining: Skill Book - Morale (Grade E)."
"..."
At this moment, countless information appeared on Lorne's interface.
Most of them were bronze coins, something that the monster would definitely drop.
In this dungeon, an undead swordsman would drop 80-100 bronze coins. According to the rough estimation, this wave of monsters would bring him 80 silver coins, equivalent to 4,000 alliance dollars. In addition to the Bronze equipment and skill books, the total income earned by Lorne would be more than 50,000.
However, it should be known that Lorne had only been in the dungeon for less than twenty minutes!
Earning 50,000 alliance dollars in 20 minutes should be enough to surpass the income of 99.99% of people in the world.
Indeed, the game dungeon was the best place to make a fortune.
Unfortunately, such a good place could only be cleared once.
Smiling, Lorne shook his head and took out the EXP herbs he had just obtained.
Originally, he did not need these herbs, but now that he had "Fire of Death", he had to first raise the level of this pet. Otherwise, it would be rather difficult for a Level 1 pet to quickly clear the Nightmare Dungeon.
After eating all the herbs, he gained a total of 15,700 experience points.
He directly leveled up his pet.
"Ding!"
"You used 1,500 experience points to raise your pet [Fire of Death (Small Artillery)] to Level 2."
"You used 4,500 experience points to raise your pet to Level 3."
"You used 7,500 experience points to raise your pet to Level 4."
Three consecutive rays of light landed and its level increased by three.

Although its level was still not high, the improvement it received was not small.

Introduction: ….
————
"Small Artillery" was the name that Lorne had given it, a glorious title for the new guy.
As for its attributes, it had indeed improved significantly.
At this moment, the upper limit of its attack had reached 455 points, which was even higher than what he had expected.
If "Small Artillery" was raised to Level 10, its attack limit would be very close to 1,000 points.
Just the thought of it was thrilling.
After checking the level of Small Artillery, Lorne was in a good mood. At the same time, he stepped into a basin.
This place was very similar to a Colosseum. It was surrounded by mountain peaks, and in the center stood hundreds of monsters. The types were mainly undead swordsmen, and there were a few undead archers with long bows mixed in.
As usual, Lorne simply checked the monster's attributes and found that although the monsters' attributes had increased a little, their level was still at 10.
This should be the restriction of the Beginner Village. The players could not go above Level 10 in the Beginner Village, so the monsters were naturally restricted in the same way.
Ignoring the creatures, he quickly surveyed his surroundings.
Finally, his gaze focused on a rock gap.
As a map with such a high concentration of monsters, there must be a way for the players to win.
Most maps that possessed a challenge would provide some subtle help with the terrain. If one was strong enough, one could rely on it to complete the impossible.

That gap seemed to be the key location in the entire map.
"Little Mantis, go attract the monsters." Lorne ordered.
After the monster made way, he led the others through carefully and quickly arrived at the gap between the rocks.
It was a pocket-like space that could be guarded as long as the entrance was blocked.
But it was not easy to block the entrance.
To make use of the terrain, one had to satisfy certain special conditions.
First, one needed a powerful tank capable of withstanding a dozen monster attacks. Otherwise, once the entrance was taken, the DPS hiding in the back would immediately be revealed.
Second, one need a strong source of DPS. It would be best if they could quickly clear out all the monsters in front. Otherwise, if the pressure on the tank was too great, it could easily collapse.
This was a huge challenge for any other team.
But to Lorne, it was simple.
With Rimuru around, the tank's mission could be completely handed over to it, and the position of the DPS could be handed over to the Level 4 "Small Artillery". It had 455 attack power and could deal tons of damage to monsters.
"Rimuru, become larger and block the entrance." Lorne ordered.
As a Bronze-Grade Boss, Rimuru could change its size to a maximum of more than one meter wide. This size could block most of the entrance.
As for the gap beside it, Little Mantis directly blocked the hole. It had a high defense of 175 points and could easily complete this mission.
"Roar!"
At this moment, hundreds of undead swordsmen surrounded him, completely sealing off his retreat.
What he had to do now was clear out all the monsters before Rimuru was killed.
This was not difficult at all.
[Fire of Death - Rain of Arrows]
Arrows were tossed into the air. When they landed, they turned into burning 'meteors' that dealt a powerful blow to all the monsters in the vicinity.
Before leveling up, the damage of the rain of arrows was at 180+ each.
Now that it was Level 4, the damage of the rain of arrows was directly increased to 390+.
The total output had more than doubled.
Then, under the continuous bombardment of "Small Artillery", the undead swordsmen fell one after another, dropping a lot of loot.
With a roar of fury, the creatures slashed at Rimuru.
The result was obvious.
They could not deal any effective forms of damage to it.
Even if Little Mantis next to it did not have much health, Rimuru could heal it. Furthermore, there was also the minotaur beside them who could temporarily take over the task.
This way, the entire situation was completely under control.
In less than ten minutes, more than 200 undead swordsmen fell to the ground.
Most of the damage came from the rain of arrows from Small Artillery. Each wave could cover 60 to 70 monsters. Four waves could directly shoot down a large number of them.
If other players saw him killing monsters like this, they would probably quit the game. This was simply too absurd…
However, Lorne was very calm. He did not even pay attention to the equipment on the ground.
His gaze shifted to the path ahead.
At the end of the path, there seemed to be a huge poisonous pool. It was green in color and was currently bubbling with poison. The center of the poisonous pool was also churning non-stop, like lava spewing out from the ground.
As he wondered, suddenly, a huge tail flung out from the poisonous pool!
