Bringing Culture to a Different World

Chapter 930: Chapter 945, Strangers

In the evening, Joshua found an empty room on the third floor of the Hearthstone Tavern as the testing location for the ‘New Dungeon’.

The tester was all members of Fuya’s adventurer team. Joshua was also a member of this adventurer team. However, due to the limitation of the location, the only members in this room were Tyreen and Hiri.

“Why… does it still fail? !”

Hiri took advantage of the time when Joshua was waiting to form a team to run to the main city of the tribe to strengthen his equipment.

The result was that when Hiri took the soul that he obtained from the crack lord and put it into the furnace, he was ready to bestow the soul power of the crack lord onto his equipment. However, a cold failure notification popped up.

Another notification made Healy’s heart turn cold. ‘The Crack Lord’s soul power has destroyed your equipment.’.

“I forgot to mention this. You have more than two equipment that have bestowed the same soul. When the third equipment continues to add the same soul… there is a certain probability of failure.”

Currently, the highest-level crack Lord in the world crack was the Balrog king. His soul could greatly change the status of the equipment’s attributes.

However, the power of the Balrog king was not so easy to control. Once a greedy adventurer wanted to boost the souls of three Balrog kings, there was a high chance that the equipment would not be able to withstand it and collapse.

Of course… this was just the settings. Jose just wanted the players to make more use of the effects of other souls.

“Even if I put all the equipment in the warehouse, does that count?”

Of course, Hiri knew about this mechanism, so she put all the equipment that she had made into the warehouse before she strengthened it.

“Yes, Hiri, what item did you break?”Jose asked.

“Helmet, do you think I can get another one from the dungeon today?”

Hiri, like Jose, had very little time to play games. She spent most of her time learning illusions from the purple-clothed person.

So, Hiri only had four pieces of hero-level lava heart graduation equipment on him, and one of these three pieces was broken… if it were any other ordinary player, their hearts would already be bleeding.

“We’re not going to play lava heart today,”Jose told Hiri a piece of unfortunate news.

More than half of the members of the Fuya Adventurer team were Fuya’s alt accounts. Ever since Jose gave Fuya extra access, the little girl had started playing solo games.

“Speaking of which, we’re going to test the new dungeon today. It’s the strange grassland from last time.”Hiri recalled the reason why he was sitting here.

“Grassland, Joshua… is he going to the Dark Elves’holy tree?”

Tyreen had been reading the messages in the group chat since the beginning. Carrie was instructing her how to play a priest well.

“Both of you are right. Anyway, are you all online?”

Jose informed all members of the Fuya Adventurer team through voice chat. After receiving a confirmation, the game interface in front of Jose entered the loading mode.

When the loading was over, Jose’s character, firebearer, was already on a strange grassland. Other characters of the Fuya Adventurer team appeared beside Jose.

Apart from the expanded version of Fuya A to K, Al, Gloria, and shier also participated in this test.

“This map only has grassland?”

Hiri ran around the map once. From the perspective of an artist, the design of this game map was undoubtedly a failure.

“Because the entrance is different. This time, the entrance is… the world tree leaf held by the king of the kingdom by the sea. Fuya, where are you going?”

As soon as Joshua finished speaking, Fuya controlled her characters to run to another place, completely refusing to communicate with Joshua.

With no other choice, Joshua could only follow his sisters. Fuya’s army crossed a small hill above the grassland. Joshua followed them to the highest point of the hill and saw the battlefield below.

It was still those deformed monsters. Each monster was like a combination of all kinds of creatures.

These monsters were surrounding and attacking a hunchbacked old man. The monster tore off the old man’s arm, but then new arms grew out of his body.

The old man kept repeating the process of his limbs being torn off by the monsters and then quickly recovering. During this time, he seemed to have given up resisting and stood still like a stone statue.

‘He’s the king of the Kingdom by the sea?’

A dialog box appeared above the head of Shier’s character. She was still not used to chatting with strangers through voice chat on the magic net, so shier was still using the text box to communicate in the game.

“Yes… uh… it seems that I don’t need to command anymore.”

Joshua looked at the two warrior phuas who had already launched a charge at the monster group, while the mage Phuas had already begun to cast a blizzard.

These attacks successfully attracted the attention of the monsters, and a chaotic battle began… Joshua watched this chaotic battle and gave up on commanding.

“Everyone… let’s see what you can do.”

After Joshua left these words, he had his character draw out his two swords and let out a roar as he charged into the Monster Horde.

This test was mainly to determine the strength of these monsters.

If he wanted to use this place as a battlefield for the players, the rewards after killing the monsters would definitely be needed.

However, the monsters that Josh was facing right now were probably… only at the level of a random soldier. The two swords that Josh’s character wielded could cut through their bodies as easily as a heated knife cutting through butter.

“This reminds me of a game called Peerless.”

Josh looked at the numbers in the lower left corner of the screen. This was the number of enemies that Josh had asked the White Bird to kill.

This number was originally Josh’s way of recording how many enemies a Max level player could kill on average. However, the final result was that Josh’s character could kill one with a normal attack, a single AOE attack could basically kill three to five enemies.

Joshua was still playing as a warrior. If it was a mage, the number of enemies he could kill in just ten minutes would probably exceed 100!

In reality, the monsters gathered on the grassland were not enough for Fuya to kill. When Joshua finished off a group of giant spiders and turned to look at the battlefield, the monsters beside the old king had all been cleared.

“How many monsters did you kill? Let me count them.”Joshua put away his weapon and asked the others.

“Twenty-seven… speaking of which, are these all low-level monsters?”Hiri asked.

“It should be because the gray fog’s strength is too weak… I killed twelve of them with just a mouse.”

At this time, Carrie should be hiding in her quilt and secretly playing the magic net.

‘twelve, isn’t that a little low?’

Shier’s character was a thief, so he didn’t have an advantage in aoe attacks.

“It doesn’t matter. What about Tyreen and Al?”Joshua asked the two elves in the party.

“I’ve been helping you recover, so it’s Zero,”Tyreen said softly.

“Al has been with teacher Fuya, so the number should be calculated with teacher Fuya.”

This High Elf was actually smart at this moment. Joshua opened Al’s data panel and saw the single digit number of enemies killed, while Fuya had 272.

In just ten minutes, close to 300 monsters were killed.

Just as Joshua was about to say that this world was far less challenging than he had imagined… the ground suddenly cracked without warning.

All the characters lost their gravity and fell into a hole in the ground. A line of scarlet numbers appeared above Joshua’s head.

There were also drops of damage in this world!

Fortunately, Joshua’s character still had one-tenth of his HP left, but the others were not so lucky. In an instant, Joshua saw that two-thirds of his teammates had died.

The empty space was pitch black. Fuya had her hunter character use a light spell to illuminate the surrounding scenery.

The light spell not only illuminated the strange buildings in the empty space, but also the various monsters surrounding them..

“They seem to have become stronger.”Joshua adjusted his vision and looked at the monsters in the empty space. Just as he was about to let his character drink a bottle of medicine, a white light suddenly appeared on the ground in the empty space.

A pure white light suddenly appeared on the ground in the hole. There were also… pure white inscription marks.

The Magic Circle appeared on the ground… The scene on Josh’s mana net changed drastically at this moment. When the light faded, it turned into a space that looked like it was in a cave.

“Hidden level?”

Hiri’s character was killed when she fell, so she forced herself out of that world. Now, she could only stand behind Josh’s screen and watch him play.

“Doesn’t look like it.”Josh controlled his vision to scan the surroundings of the cave. A figure in a white robe appeared in front of him.

At this time, Fuya had already controlled her surviving character to walk up with a weapon.

“Wait! Fuya, wait! He doesn’t seem to be an enemy!”Josh could only use his voice to stop Fuya.
