[Obtained: 500,000 EXP]

[Obtained: 1,102 Gold coins]

[Level+1]

[Current Status: Level 50]

[…]

[Drops: Thunder Core]

[The Demon Heart has been destroyed. Haifado Village has been perfectly cleared. The dungeon will be permanently closed after you exit the dungeon.]

[Drops: Platinum Treasure Chest x 1, Gold Treasure Chest x 2.]

After killing the Demon Heart, Mike received a series of rewards and the Thunder Core was one of them.

Mike would be able to get more benefits from the Dark Walker with this.

Before even giving him the Thunder Core, Mike had already received the powerful ‘Zero’ skill from the Dark Walker. After giving him this Thunder core, he would receive even more rewards. It was worth looking forward to.

Mike went over to check the treasure chest.

[Hidden Information: Platinum-Tier treasure chests are not dangerous. Gold-Tier treasure chest 1 is not dangerous, while Gold-Tier treasure chest 2 contains danger. Please open it carefully. ]

He opened the Platinum-Tier treasure chest.

[Obtained: Level 50 Platinum-Tier set equipment.]

After clearing the dungeon, Mike, who was at Level 50, could immediately put on the Platinum set equipment.

[Combat Power: 61,204!]

Before wearing any equipment, Mike’s combat power didn’t even touch 10,000, after putting it on, it soared higher than 60,000.

A set of godlike equipment.

Not only did it boost attributes, but it also had a percentage bonus. For example, magic damage had increased by 60%.

There was also immunity towards damage. All types of damage were reduced by 60%.

HP recovery.

Agility.

In addition to that, it gave a maximum energy limit of 300 points. No one else should have more than 150 points of energy right now.

Even if all the other conditions hadn’t changed, just from the difference in energy alone, Mike was one to three times stronger than the others.

[Gold-Tier Treasure Chest has been opened.]

[Obtained: Level 50 Gold-Tier set equipment.]

This set of equipment could be left for his doppelganger to use.

Not only did he get the Thunder Core he wanted, but he also got two powerful sets of equipment and a large pile of materials. Mike was satisfied.

Actually, these sets of equipment would not normally be available, they would only drop after clearing the dungeon perfectly.

Typically, most of the people would leave the dungeon after killing the village chief, which was the boss. At that point, they would only get experience materials and a few rewards.

But Mike could see the hidden information. He knew that there was a Demon Heart in the back mountain, and that was why he had such a big advantage.

He looked at the third treasure chest.

The last Gold-Tier treasure chest. There was nothing in it, and it was simply there to trick people.

Mike ignored it and prepared to leave.

After he handed over the Thunder Core to the Dark Walker in exchange for its rewards, Mike planned to dive into the dungeons to grind and level up, hoping to be able to destroy the Heavenly Palace and other palaces as soon as possible, as well as the Exotic Beasts.

Little did he know, all of this… was witnessed by the leader and his party.

At first, they were shocked when they saw that Mike had single-handedly killed the boss, but later, three really obviously good treasure chests dropped, which aroused their greed.

They could not recognize the Platinum-Tier treasure chests, but the Gold-Tier treasure chests were easy to identify.

The rewards were so good?!

[Private Channel]

“Everyone listen up!”

The leader was talking.

“I’ve already checked. There’s no one else around the back of the mountain. There’s only us and this person, and he’s the only outsider here.”

“Just now, he single-handedly fought the boss.”

“But is that possible?”

“I think his teammates were all killed and forced to leave the dungeon to save their own lives. In the end, he was the only one left. It was a coincidence that he managed to kill the boss.”

“Now, a mysterious treasure chest and two Gold treasure chests dropped.”

“There’s still one Gold treasure chest that hasn’t been opened.”

“But it doesn’t matter.”

“Kill him and the reward will be ours!”

“Everyone, activate Slaughter mode!”

There were many modes in the game.

For example, there was a mode to prevent teammates from hurting each other. It was also tactically agreed that all players should not hurt each other, but the mode could be adjusted.

“Ranged, go first.”

“Do it!”

As the leader issued the command, instantly countless spells were fired at Mike. But in fact, Mike had noticed them long ago.

Just now, the hidden information indicated that they were not dangerous, so he ignored them.

Now, their attitudes changed. Mike had been warned that he was in danger by the hidden information even before they made a move.

Flash!

All the skills landed on the spot where Mike had originally been, but all of them missed.

[Assault received. Mode has been automatically switched.]

[Counterattacking will not increase Kill Points.]

Players would have Kill Points if they attacked each other. There was no penalty for having Kill Points, but the amount would just be recorded.

Many people would naturally be wary of those who had high Kill Points.

“He dodged it?!”

After a round of skill blasting, their Kill Points did not increase.

“He’s gone?”

The leader couldn’t find Mike.

“Be careful!”

The leader sent out a message. “I’ll open this last treasure chest first. The rest of you, pay attention to that guy’s movements. People who aren’t from our party don’t have obvious markings, so he’s easy to recognize.”

This party leader led a few people closer to the last Gold treasure chest.

This was the first time they had seen such a high-level treasure chest. Before, all their chests were Bronze-Tier treasure chests.

They opened the treasure chest.

Immediately, a green poisonous gas was released. The leader and the others who were closest to the treasure chest were immediately poisoned and injured.

– 1,000.

– 1,000.

– 1,000.

Their HP plummeted.

“F*ck!”

The leader cursed.

“This treasure chest is poisonous! Paladins, come over and heal me, quick, quick, quick!”

The originally orderly formation began to fall into chaos. Many of the Paladins quickly changed positions. The others also rushed over to see what happened.

Boom!

Mike felt that it was about time. He used his Large Fireball spell and spread it across the floor.

– 30,216!

– 29,891!

– 28,214!

Ignite.

– 16,221!

– 18,229!

– 19,245!

The damage value was almost double the maximum HP of many people.

When the Large Fireball was released, many people immediately dropped dead onto the ground.

“This is not good!”

The party panicked and spoke in the Private Channel.

“We’ve been ambushed!”

The leader, who was recovering his HP, immediately looked around. He could only see in a certain direction.

A wall of fire appeared, and it continued to spread.

When the Fireball landed on the ground, it exploded, forming a wall of fire. Almost everyone that was along the way of the firewall was instantly killed.

They had more than a hundred people, and they should have had a huge advantage.

At this moment…

It felt like nothing was enough to kill him.

“How is he so powerful?” The leader was stupefied.

That was a player?

Were they sure it wasn’t some super-advanced boss?

In the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred players were wiped out.

The remaining players were temporarily fine because they were quite far away. However, it was only a matter of time before they were affected.

The wall of fire continued to spread, and it felt as if the fires of hell were approaching them.

“Who is this guy? Who the hell is he?” The leader could not comprehend.

His strength was ridiculous!

“Leader, what do we do now?” someone asked on the Private Channel.

He was not dead yet. But, soon.

The leader did not reply. How was he supposed to know what to do?

Escape?

If they didn’t fight back, they could escape the dungeon, but their battle had already started.

They had to disengage from the combat, which meant that they had to stop fighting with other players for about a minute before they could leave the dungeon.

“Let’s fight to the death!” The leader said.

There was no other way.

All sorts of spells collided.

A Fireball swept over.

– 31,254.

– 66,434! (Critical Hit)

– 29,551!

The party was wiped out.

“It’s over…”

“It’s all over…”

“We worked so hard to level up for so long and now, it’s all gone…”

They wanted to cry, but no tears were flowing.
