"Ben, this leveling speed is a bit slow." Zack looked at the group's levels and sighed.
They'd been grinding for an afternoon and half the night, and they were only level 38.
When they first arrived, they could level up after doing a dungeon two or three times, but now it took five or six times.
And compared to leveling up by doing quests and experiencing the local customs of Azeroth, simply grinding monsters was a bit boring.
But the key thing was that the equipment here was just too tempting.
It wasn't completely boring though, there were some interesting things, like how you could pick up and read many of the books in "World of Warcraft."
For example, in the library area of the Scarlet Monastery dungeon, there were many books you could read.
While doing the dungeon, you could understand the "World of Warcraft" universe and the corresponding storyline based on the dungeon's content. This could be said to be a major feature of "World of Warcraft."
It could also increase your knowledge and unlock achievements on the Nebula Games platform.
Compared to other games, "World of Warcraft" could be said to be a nightmare for achievement hunters.
Through these books, Ben and the others also learned some details about the Scarlet Crusade. For example, besides the crazed Scarlet Crusade, there were actually some people who remained clear-headed and had a sense of justice who left.
They formed a new organization called the Argent Dawn, dedicated to uniting all possible forces in the world of Azeroth to resist the invasion of evil forces.
"It's actually okay, the key is that the equipment is really good, and it matches our jobs well," Ben said.
They had been grinding until now, and their luck wasn't bad or good, but everyone had basically replaced their gear with blue and green items dropped by the Scarlet mobs.
Including Ben's pants, shoes, and belt, which had all been replaced with Scarlet set pieces, activating the first two set bonuses and increasing his defense even further.
At the same time, he had also replaced his weapon with a blue main-hand sword called "The Butcher" that dropped from the Scarlet elites.
They also farmed a few duplicate set pieces, all of which they planned to throw into the guild and sell to other members.
"Feels about right!"
"Want to try the last one, the Cathedral, and then go to sleep?"
"That's right, our luck is amazing today. We cleared the Armory in one go before, maybe we can clear the Cathedral in one go too!"
At the entrance to the Scarlet Cathedral, everyone in the team looked excited.
Compared to when they first came, they were now much better equipped.
Their levels were also quickly approaching 38.
Now, as long as they cleared the Cathedral, they would have cleared the entire Scarlet Monastery.
Of course, that was just clearing it. The things that dropped in the Scarlet Monastery were just too good.
Not to mention the Scarlet set pieces they already had, the introductions from other players online said that the Cathedral also dropped a hammer called the "Hammer of Justice."
Paired with Hannah's Paladin class, it was a perfect match.
"If we clear this Cathedral in one go, and then the hammer drops for me, I'll have no regrets," Hannah said with a beautiful wish before entering the dungeon.
"I want to get the rest of the Scarlet set pieces in one go," Ben was also very excited.
While fantasizing, the group arrived at the door of the chapel.
"Are there too many monsters?"
Looking at the densely packed monsters, everyone felt a headache. The boss, Mograine, was in the depths of the chapel, receiving worship from his followers below.
And in the middle, and on both sides, there were at least dozens of monsters.
Looking at the surrounding environment, Ben's eyes lit up.
"Let's go from this direction and clear all the small monsters in this area. Don't fight the small monsters on both sides, just skip the monsters and fight the boss. This place is wider and it's not easy to pull the surrounding monsters."
Ben noticed there was a fairly wide area behind the boss, which looked like a good place for a boss fight.
"Everyone, pay attention. Look at this area, isn't it left for us to fight the boss? Just like in 'Dark Souls' and 'Bloodborne,' there's always a way!" Ben said, smiling as he led his teammates.
At first, Ben and the others fought every monster, but later they discovered that some monsters could actually be slipped past, as long as they didn't attract their attention, saving a lot of time.
Wasn't the map design of this Cathedral designed to let players avoid the small monsters?
Such a wide area, it was very obvious!
"Bloodborne," "Dark Souls," and other games had similar map designs!
Ben smiled very brightly, and at the same time, the team approached the boss, Mograine. At this time, the boss was facing the altar with candles lit, praying and completely unaware that Ben and the others had snuck over.
"Get ready to position and start the fight!" Ben said to his teammates.
"No problem."
"Ben, just start it!"
"No problem! Charge!" Hearing his teammate's words, Ben shouted and took the lead.
As Ben's knife hit the boss, a roar came from the boss's mouth.
'Heretics? Purge them!'
Along with the appearance of the boss's health bar, and the roar.
In the bewildered gazes of Ben and his four friends, the small monsters on both sides that they hadn't cleared rushed over like crazy.
A few minutes later, back at the entrance to the dungeon, Ben had black lines all over his face.
What a scam! Was the boss's hate linked to the small monsters?
Was that open space not a shortcut for them to fight the boss?
"Don't blame me! It's mainly because Boss Lucas is too cunning! It looks like a map left for us to skip school, but it's actually a trap hidden with killing intent," Ben coughed lightly and explained.
This time, everyone honestly cleared all the surrounding monsters, leaving only the lonely boss.
"This boss doesn't seem to be very difficult!"
"That's right, he died right away!"
"And isn't he a Paladin? Why doesn't he have invincibility?"
"Don't plant the flag, I have a bad feeling!"
"What bad feeling? The boss is down, isn't he?
Looking at Mograine falling, Ben smiled indifferently.
But at this moment, a previously closed door opened, and High Inquisitor Whitemane rushed out from inside.
'Mograine has fallen? You will pay for this!'
Along with High Inquisitor Whitemane's angry voice, everyone entered the battle.
"A linked fight? They were waiting for us here! Luckily, we kept our condition good!"
Looking at the screen showing that they were in the battle, Ben was surprised.
He really didn't expect it to be a linked fight.
But it didn't matter, everyone was in good condition.
"This female boss seems pretty weak too!"
"Yeah, she's still a Priest, isn't she just giving us food?"
"It's not that she's weak, it's that we've improved!"
"The healing hammer is right in front of us."
Watching the boss's health drop rapidly, everyone smiled.
As if they had already seen the equipment dropped by the boss.
However, as Whitemane's health reached about 35%.
Suddenly, everyone found that they couldn't control their characters.
The buff bar showed that they were in a sleep state, lasting for ten seconds.
Then, in everyone's confused expressions, they saw Whitemane run in small steps to the fallen Mograine and raise the staff in her hand high.
'Arise, my champion!'
'Fight for you, my lady!'
Looking at the two bosses full of energy, and then looking at their own condition, Ben and the others fell into deep silence.
Ten minutes later, the whole family neatly turned into souls again.
Too shameless!
Too doglike!
She even knew how to resurrect!
And the previous Mograine didn't even use invincibility when he was beaten to death. Everyone thought he didn't have an invincibility skill.
So after being resurrected, you become invincible in front of the woman?
You were pretending to be stupid on purpose, weren't you!?
