Chapter 297
This attack style is simply too flashy.
Some clerics tried to counter the ghost's intangibility skill, only to find it utterly impossible; the only difference was that clerics dealt more damage to ghosts than other classes did.
Moreover, the most critical point was that ghosts roamed the poison insect zone.
Mentioning poison insects made all class-transferred players feel nauseous.
Although the poison insects themselves possessed neither strong attack nor defense, even their breath expelled poisonous smoke from their mouths; furthermore, if anyone killed a necrotic poison insect, it would immediately self-destruct, generating a massive cloud of even denser poisonous smoke.
Within the area covered by this poisonous smoke, any class-transferred player who entered would lose health...
Therefore, basically all normal class-transferred players had abandoned the Second Layer.
But—
Now that golden monsters have appeared in the Second Layer, things are different.
The allure of the golden monsters was enough to make everyone move their feet and try.
Golden monsters could drop Excellent-grade equipment.
If one dropped even a single piece, even a plain white one, its attack power would be roughly equivalent to a blue-grade equipment, and it would also possess the Excellent Strike attribute.
Some class-transferred players who had not been defeated by the golden skeleton monsters secretly followed behind the golden skeleton army.
"Hmph—these monsters, if they clash with the ghosts, I hope they destroy each other!!!"
Jiang Li also secretly followed them into the Second Layer dungeon.
To Jiang Li's surprise, as soon as he entered the Second Layer ghost dungeon, an inexplicable chill pervaded the air.
The walls of the entire space lacked even oil lamps, yet there was faint light, along with smoke floating in midair, smelling somewhat of rotting corpses.
Occasionally, a mournful howling wind would blow, sounding like the cries of wandering souls on a battlefield at night.
Lurking in such darkness made it so that even Jiang Li's breathing was inaudible.
Yet now, a group of uninvited guests had arrived.
"Big brother, I'm scared of ghosts! What do ghosts look like?"
"Scared of what? You're just a skeleton soldier yourself."
"Let me tell you some great news: implanting a female ghost's soul into a female skeleton will produce a huge surprise."
A large crowd of Jin Guang-shining loafers arrived here, shattering the eerie atmosphere and tranquility of the place.
"Ghosts, ghosts, come out quickly! Come into brother's bowl."
The Jin Huang radiating from a group of golden skeleton soldiers illuminated the Second Layer space.
"Big brother, look—what's that ahead?"
The crowd following along looked forward at the skeleton's shout.
Sure enough, within the dark shadows ahead, semi-intangible figures combining solid and ethereal forms could be seen; without careful observation, they were hard to detect.
【Monster: Ghost】
【Attack: 2 million】
【Health: 3 million】
【Skills: Gale, Attack Speed Boost, Intangible Attack】
With such basic stats, their appearance was already superior even to the golden skeletons.
However, that Intangible Attack made even Jiang Li frown deeply.
This was nothing like what was said outside: that they would become solid during an attack; rather, they would sometimes become solid during an attack.
This was damn buggy; everyone hated this thing.
"Brothers, follow my footsteps! Ghost sisters are so pretty; we must catch a few back to study how to cross species."
Skeleton Number One, wielding a golden battle-axe, shouted loudly, and over a hundred skeletons charged into the darkness.
The crowd hurriedly followed.
They also wanted to see whether the golden skeletons were stronger, or the eerie, corpse-less ghosts were stronger.
Class-transferred players who had previously felt displeasure toward the golden skeletons directly typed on the public screen: "Coordinates 322,76," inviting all class-transferred players from other layers to join the fun, while also hoping to gather people from other layers to kill the golden skeletons and see if they could pick up some leftovers.
"Wow!"
"There are more ghosts than us."
Skeleton Number Twenty-Five roared.
The crowd looked and felt their scalps tingle.
At the same time, they felt an opportunity had arrived; their various stats were superior to the golden skeletons, and there were at least two or three hundred ghosts.
The ghosts' attacks were not only fluctuating between solid and ethereal, but up to now, there had been no kill records; although this was a level 15–20 dungeon, level 30 characters had come before and still could not deal with a single ghost.
This showed how troublesome these ghosts were.
"What does the number matter? Attack!"
Skeleton Number One slapped the head of Skeleton Number Twenty-Five, and then a group of skeletons charged toward the ghosts standing still and somewhat dazed.
This was the first time they had encountered living beings actively seeking trouble; they could not help but emit a somewhat eerie "Hehehe—" laugh.
