Chapter 19: Li Yao misunderstood me!

The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground, and the scream that never came,

made Jiang Ningyu and the others look back while they were fleeing.

Li Yao was still standing in the same spot as before.

In front of him lay four pieces of a monster carcass with clean cuts,

and above the carcass, a pale silver treasure chest floated ten centimeters off the ground.

Monsters in the novice dungeon are weakened and don't drop loot.

But this Bloodthirsty Forest Wolf was different; it was unweakened and was a leader-tier monster itself.

Looking at the scene before her,

Jiang Ningyu felt her brain atrophy!

The knowledge absorbed from nine years of compulsory education could not explain this scene at all.

The group stood frozen in place as if time had stopped.

Li Yao had no intention of paying them any mind; he put the pale silver treasure chest into his storage ring.

Li Yao was not surprised by the one-shot kill of the Bloodthirsty Forest Wolf.

The moment the Bloodthirsty Forest Wolf appeared, Li Yao had cast Appraisal on it.

8th-level leader.

8500 HP.

On the way to the depths of the dungeon, the Void Mantis had hunted countless monsters.

Its Strength attribute had long since exceeded 600.

"Taste of Fear" could cause four times the damage, and coupled with the "Isolated" doubling effect,

that made it eight times the damage.

If he remembered correctly,

the damage font just now was displayed in red, which meant a weak-point attack, doubling the damage once more.

Dealing over ten thousand damage became perfectly normal.

A one-shot kill was nothing out of the ordinary.

It was just unexpected that there were leader-tier creatures in the novice dungeon; that was a pleasant surprise.

Not only did he level up directly, but he also got loot.

A pale silver treasure chest is something that has a chance to contain Silver-grade equipment.

"I'll open it when I get out."

Now that he had reached level 5 and the Hedge Fund gold coins were in hand, there was nothing worth lingering for in this novice dungeon.

Li Yao walked toward the dungeon entrance.

Passing by Jiang Ningyu, who was still frozen in place, Li Yao gave her a deep look.

In his heart, he had already passed a 'death sentence' on this woman.

Regardless of the outcome,

if he were just an ordinary practitioner, Li Yao would have been dead or severely injured by her attempt to divert the disaster onto him.

Li Yao didn't consider himself a good person.

If someone wants to harm him, they should be prepared to accept retaliation!

It's just that, being in the novice dungeon right now, it wasn't convenient to take action.

Until Li Yao disappeared from everyone's sight,

Jiang Ningyu and the others finally came to their senses.

"That was Li Yao's summon, right?"

"Should be, right?"

"An A-tier summon can be this exaggerated?"

"How is that possible?! Even an S-tier couldn't one-shot it; this is a leader-tier, have you forgotten how Ye Tao was teleported out?"

They all knew Li Yao's summon came from Jiang Ningyu's A-tier skill book.

However, if an A-tier summon were this strong, Summoners wouldn't be a "sewer" class.

Now they could only guess that Li Yao's class, Chess Player, possessed the ability to buff summons for a short time.

And it was a massive enhancement, the kind with side effects!

Even so, they now knew that Li Yao, this A-tier Summoner, was by no means as simple as they had imagined.

Seeing Jiang Ningyu still lost in amazement,

the Archer-class practitioner in the team, on the contrary, showed a gloating expression.

"Goddess Jiang, are you regretting the breakup now?"

After entering the dungeon, Jiang Ningyu snatching EXP, and later using teammates as sacrifices to shake off the Bloodthirsty Forest Wolf—

these things had long since shattered Jiang Ningyu's "Goddess" halo completely.

"I guess you don't have time to regret it now."

The Archer-class practitioner reminded her with a smirk.

"The look Li Yao gave you just now was the same as the look you gave me back then." ===== CHAPTER 21 =====
