Orson had just finished his bowl of noodles and was about to sleep when the first-clear dungeon announcements continued to flood in.
“How many times is this now? How do they play like this? Clearing Elite Dungeons like it’s drinking water or eating food.”
“Are the players at Purple Thunder Fortress not even given a chance? How hard is it to get a first clear? Are these people even human?”
“…”
World chat was full of confused players. Many hadn’t even found the dungeon entrance yet.
In one single day, Godslayer Guild cleared 3 Legendary Dungeons, 8 Elite Dungeons, and 12 Normal Dungeons.
Bradley: “Madman, can you actually handle this? If you can’t, just let Orson get up and help you clear them.”
Madman: “What the hell do you mean I can’t handle it? I’m training my team. It’ll take a bit longer, but we’ll clear it safely!”
In a 30-level Legendary Dungeon, Madman was busy leading a group of thieves working hard.
In the Dark City, a large number of armored Death Knights were making their lives difficult.
Stewart: “Are you sure you don’t want me to heal you? Our setup is pretty weak.”
“Don’t! I suggest you go AFK, just stop healing me!”
“Alright, alright, war god, if you heal me again, I’ll kneel down and give you a bow.”
The bizarre lineup of 11 assassins and Stewart was giving them a hard time.
With Stewart’s healing spells being so inconsistent, these thieves Madman tricked into joining the guild were getting tortured.
“Hold on! First team, go! Block the Death Archers. Second team, come and keep healing!” Madman shouted.
“Heal? The monster only took 2000 of my health, but this guy’s poison heal just took 4000 of my health!”
“This idiotic tactic… can the Vice Guild Master stop messing things up? I’ve never seen such a useless priest.”
“I suggest we use the idiot priest as a meat shield, at least his gear is good enough to tank.”
The assassin team members complained as they shoved Stewart into the middle of the Death Knights to absorb their aggro.
Meanwhile, they started poking the monsters, hoping to quickly defeat them.
“Don’t worry, I’m here with the thieves! If I die, we can just respawn and start again!”
Stewart screamed and, with determination, crawled under the hooves of the horses, casting his poison heal on a few of his struggling teammates.
-1700
-1700
…
“I heal you, you damn pest!”
The teammates struggled to stabilize their health through dodging moves, but with Stewart’s continuous poison heals, they started dropping like flies.
“Sorry, sorry! I got unlucky, didn’t know it was all cursed healing!” Stewart nervously apologized.
The thieves, now raging, crawled out of the respawn point and stared at Stewart with eyes burning with anger.
“Stop hiding behind, you coward! Useless piece of crap, die already!”
“Die!”
“Eat this, stab to the waist!”
Stewart quickly tried to run away, but how could he outrun the thieves?
The team members were furious at being tricked and rushed toward Stewart to kill him.
“This setup really has some issues…” Madman observed, thinking about intervening but then decided against it.
Friendship first—he’d give Stewart one last knife to the back before stopping.
Large damage numbers flashed above Stewart’s head, but soon, the assassins froze in shock.
What the hell? This priest lost nearly 20,000 health, and he still hasn’t died?
Why hasn’t he died yet?
+8000
+7500
+7700
…
The thieves looked at each other in disbelief, unsure whether their eyes were deceiving them.
Seeing Stewart’s health surge to 40,000, they were all silent.
“What kind of special skill is this? How broken is he?”
“No way, I’m going to take him down!”
“Headshot! Go for the weak points! I won’t believe he’s invincible!”
As more teammates attacked Stewart, his health kept skyrocketing, reaching an astonishing 80,000 health.
They kept attacking him for a long time, and Stewart still had 60,000 health.
+3000
+1500
…
“Stop hitting me! I’m scared, I just want to go home!” Stewart cried out while casting more poison heals on himself.
The thieves just gritted their teeth, stunned. They had never seen such a disgusting priest. When he healed others, it was often poison damage, but when healing himself, it was always “perfect healing.”
“You can’t kill him. Unless you can burst him down in one hit, if you’re a group, he won’t die unless a whole squad is dedicated to killing him,” Madman remarked coldly.
The thieves still didn’t get what Madman meant.
Stewart awkwardly scratched his head and said, “I’m your healer, your health is my health.”
The Epic Rank item Left Hand of the Cursed King had been actively triggering. With Stewart continuously making trouble for his teammates, whenever they attacked him, he gained 110% of their health points.
His passive skill was also increasing all attributes by 110%.
In the dungeon, if internal conflict occurred and the more people attacked or insulted him, Stewart became stronger.
The group was wiped again, and Madman, yawning, walked over: “Line up. Stewart, bless these idiots and clear the dungeon before Slaughter Guild gets ahead.”
Stewart, looking apologetic, ran to the respawn point and started applying his cursed healing to everyone.
“All attributes increased by +110%.”
“All attributes increased by +110%.”
“…”
“What the hell? I’m so strong! It’s like I ate a health tonic, 20,000 health!?”
“One-hit crits can deal 6000 damage? My movement speed doubled? What is this…?”
The entire assassin team stared, slack-jawed. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing.
They had thought the Vice Guild Master was just sending a useless priest with them, but now this priest was carrying them?
Madman, alongside Stewart, quickly dispatched a group of ghostly figures to the Death Knights, easily cutting through the dungeon.
Meanwhile, the Godslayer Guild members continued to grind late into the night, wreaking havoc around the Purple Thunder Fortress’ numerous quest points.
Tears streamed down the face of a muscular player: “This is insane, totally insane! Orgod’s strength is like he’s cheating, but now these guys are also leveling up like crazy?”
California 007: “Demon Emperor personally led his team into the Legendary Dungeon Hall of the Sacred Relics. Six gods with legendary weapons, and they still cleared it 10 minutes slower than Money Traveler?”
Zhongheng Qingyao: “You don’t get it. Demon Emperor and his team tracked Money Traveler into the dungeon. Even if they don’t get the first-clear reward, they can still get something from clearing a high-difficulty dungeon!”
“Latest info! Absolute Kid appeared in the Abyssal Wasteland. The new Legendary Dungeon Nine-Hell Cavern is about to open!”
“Quick, get in there! Rumor has it that the first players in the dungeon have double the drop rate, grab everything!”
Clearly, other guilds and fixed teams weren’t stupid either. There were spies everywhere around Purple Thunder Fortress, keeping a close eye on players with the Godslayer tag.
Most players were still fumbling in the dark, with large areas around Purple Thunder Fortress still unexplored. Even if they had the power, they couldn’t find the dungeon entrances.
But Godslayer members were like a beacon. As long as core members of Godslayer appeared, a difficult dungeon was sure to be unlocked.
“Are you guys really going to do a dungeon?”
Bradley and the others had just finished an Elite Dungeon, and when they looked up, they saw a mountain of players surrounding them.
A large group of players stared at them as though they were looking at celebrities.
If it wasn’t for the Thousand Men Killer title above Bradley’s head, some of these players might’ve even thought about killing them for loot.
“Ignore them. Let’s go. We’re pushing for 30 levels tonight,” Bradley said, and the group hurried off toward the next dungeon entrance.
