Chapter 191: King Amber

"Actually, I think it's better if the Dungeon process is as long as possible," Yun Mu said in a low voice.

After all, the longer the game Dungeon process is, the more gains and rewards she can obtain.

The level of this Dungeon is only lv20, which does not exceed her own rank by too much.

Thinking about it, there shouldn't be any danger.

Under the premise of ensuring safety, greedily seeking more rewards is the quality a high-level gamer should have! "I am just an NPC, the construction of the Dungeon is not up to me, meow," Eve said after hearing her words.

"Normal NPCs wouldn't think of themselves as NPCs," Yun Mu retorted.

"Because I am not a normal NPC, meow~" Eve gave a light jump, stepped onto a moss-covered tree root, turned her head to look at Yun Mu, and urged: "Let's move forward quickly."

"If I stay in a place like this for too long, my fur will become all damp, meow."

"Didn't you just tell me to get prepared before moving forward?"

Yun Mu followed behind Eve, put the 【Mask of the Apostle of Joy】 on her face, and then summoned Lucy, Dabai, and the Scarlet Knight together.

As for the positioning of the four after encountering combat, Yun Mu chose to place the Scarlet Knight in the first position, and Dabai behind the Scarlet Knight.

As for herself and Lucy, they stood in the fourth position and third position respectively.

There wasn't much extra consideration, just placing the front row in the front and the back row in the back.

If a special situation is truly encountered, the team formation can be adjusted temporarily during battle.

"Did your Path level as a cat increase?"

After Lucy was summoned by her, her gaze looked straight at the cat ears on top of her head and asked.

"Not really."

Yun Mu roughly explained to Lucy what she had encountered in the game Dungeon earlier, especially emphasizing that the cat ears on her head and the tail behind her were just decorations.

"I didn't expect to meet a real deity; even if it's just an avatar, it's still very astonishing."

After listening to her account, Lucy said with a somewhat surprised expression.

"However, Mother of All Cats Eve... I feel like I've heard this name somewhere. Was She a deity from our era?" Lucy asked with some curiosity.

"I don't know." Shaking her head, Yun Mu looked at the white cat walking in front and said: "Should we go up and ask?"

"This deity feels quite easy to talk to," she said.

"There's no need for that." Lucy shook her head, her long golden hair swaying along with it: "I was just asking casually; there's no need to go and verify things with a deity over such a small matter."

Pausing, she continued: "That one should be a deity who was already active when I was still alive. It feels familiar, but I can't recall it; it should just be a matter of popularity."

"In the Fifth Era, to still exist across such a long span of time, there must be some extraordinary aspects to Her."

She looked at the cat ears on top of Yun Mu's head, and for some reason, her face suddenly flushed red. She shifted her gaze away and said: "Those cat ears... I think they look very good, they suit you very well."

"... Thanks?" Yun Mu was a bit baffled by Lucy's sudden compliment, but she still replied politely.

"If we keep walking forward, we will enter the territory of that little one, Amber, meow~"

Eve, walking in front, stopped her steps, waited for Yun Mu and Lucy to walk over, and said.

After finishing this sentence, she looked at Lucy again, a look of surprise appearing on her cat face, and said: "It's actually a Blood Clan member, meow, and you are..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Lucy smile at her somewhat awkwardly and extend a finger, making a "shh" gesture.

"Hmm?" Yun Mu looked at the person and the cat with some confusion, not knowing what the two of them were up to.

"Apologies, Miss Yun, but regarding information about me, it is better for you to know as little as possible." Noticing her gaze, Lucy explained to her apologetically.

"I know, about that Anchor Point, right." Hearing her say this, Yun Mu immediately recalled that matter regarding the Anchor Point and nodded in understanding.

"Phew... it's good that you can understand." Seeing that she understood her meaning, Lucy breathed a sigh of relief and said: "If the problem with that Scarlet one can be solved..."

"At the very least, only after my body is dealt with can I tell you more about the Scarlet Court and information about me."

"Just not now," she shook her head and said.

"Then let's make a promise, after solving the Scarlet matter... oh, never mind, forget it."

Halfway through her sentence, realizing she was jinxing herself, Yun Mu decisively changed her words.

"?"

Lucy looked at her in confusion, not knowing what kind of trouble she was having all of a sudden.

"Let's talk about the Dungeon instead." Yun Mu changed the subject, looked at Eve on the side, and asked: "Amber is the name, right? Is it the little one I need to find back?"

"That's right, meow~" Eve nodded and said: "Amber is a lively and combative leopard cat. About half a year ago, she snuck out of Paradise while I wasn't paying attention."

"And this jungle is the place where she lived before coming to Paradise, meow."

"Can cats in Paradise run out so easily?" Yun Mu looked at Eve with a somewhat strange expression and asked.

"And don't they only have souls?" After thinking for a moment, she added another sentence.

"Of course I let her run away on purpose, meow~" Eve licked her paw and said: "Some cats feel attached to the world of the living; this is normal."

"I couldn't bear to see the sad expressions on the children's faces, so I let them run away, meow."

"However, they are ultimately lives that have already died, so they still shouldn't be allowed to affect the real world too much."

"Now that I have let Amber play outside for half a year, it is time to call her back, meow."

"As for the question of only having souls... it doesn't have any impact in Paradise, meow, but to be active in the real world, they must attach themselves to the bodies of other cats."

"I see..." A look of sudden realization appeared on Yun Mu's face, and then she asked again: "Then what you said earlier, that this is Amber's territory, what does that refer to?"

"Look ahead, meow~" Eve pointed forward with her paw.

"That is..."

Yun Mu looked in the direction Eve pointed, and saw that in the dense jungle, a huge camp had actually appeared!

The camp was rectangular in its entirety, using crude wooden walls formed by logs sharpened at both ends and stuck into the ground as a line of defense.

And inside the wooden walls, there were several arrow towers also made of logs.

On the arrow tower's watchtower, Yun Mu saw a kind of humanoid creature with a greenish body, plus their long ears that looked like an Elf's... if she wasn't mistaken, that thing should be a Goblin?

Goblins, defeat, pregnancy, seedbed... it feels like a very common theme for doujinshi.

I don't know if this is popular in this world, or how the market performance will be. Pfft, I'm not here to draw doujinshi!

Yun Mu shook her head, deleting the thought that had subconsciously surfaced.

"Amber's territory, you mean this Goblin Camp?" She looked at Eve to the side and asked with a look of utter surprise on her face.

The latter nodded after hearing her question and said, "That is the case, meow. So if you want to bring Amber back, you need to defeat the entire Goblin Camp."

"Oh~ so that means I have to fight Goblins." Yun Mu nodded in realization and said. I don't know who I am, and I don't know where I am, I only know that I'm about to start a massacre. jpg "Pretty much." Eve pointed her claw at the Gate of the camp and said, "Standing there will trigger the first battle, meow."

"Alright, then let's begin."

Seeing that Eve had pointed out the path for her, Yun Mu stopped wasting time and immediately led Lucy, Dabai, and the Scarlet Knight toward the entrance of the camp.

"Wah!"

The Goblin standing atop the arrow tower immediately let out a warning cry upon discovering Yun Mu and the others.

The next second, countless Goblins ran out from the camp. 【Battle Start!】

The Game Panel issued a prompt that the turn-based battle had begun. The next second, the world before Yun Mu shattered; the large number of Goblins disappeared, leaving only a single squad that appeared before them.

Two Goblins wearing inferior leather armor, holding wooden Round Shields wrapped in a layer of iron, and wielding worn-out scimitars stood at the very front of the formation.

Behind them were Goblin throwers with red ribbons tied around their heads, carrying baskets woven from grass rope on their backs, filled with polished, round, grayish-brown stone bullets.

And one Goblin crossbowman draped in a grayish-brown cloak, hunched over, clutching an old-fashioned crossbow.

【Player Yun Mu acts first! (Speed 28)】

【Mental Shock!】

With the goal of practicing skills, and because the enemy's stats didn't look all that impressive, Yun Mu didn't choose an equipment skill with a large AOE, but instead continued to use the plain and simple Mental Shock.

And her target was the 【Goblin Crossbowman!】 standing in the fourth position of the enemy side.

【-105！】

Holy crap!

A Scarlet damage number jumped out from above the Goblin Crossbowman's head, giving even Yun Mu a start.

In an instant, the Goblin Crossbowman, who only had 38 HP, turned into fly ash and dissipated.

【Bloodline Living Corpse acts! (Speed 16)】

"Hmm, use Roar." Looking at the message prompt on the Game Panel, Yun Mu ordered.

Dabai's attack power was only 20 points; even with the 5 points of attack provided by the Path of Desire, he couldn't kill an enemy in one hit.

It was better to release Roar and gamble for a Stun.

【-0】*3【Stun! (Position 1)】【Stun! (Position 3)】

【Lucy acts! (Speed 14)】

"Cast a skill on the Scarlet Knight, Blade Constellation II." Glancing at Lucy's skills and stat bar, Yun Mu said.

"Break the Thorns!" Lucy whispered, and a touch of azure light shone on the Scarlet Knight's head.

【Scarlet Knight acts! (Speed 14)】

"Scarlet Knight, use Scarlet Slash on the two Goblin Sword-Shieldmen!"

"Hah!"

The Scarlet Knight raised the Scarlet Cross Sword in his hand high, and with a swing, unleashed a streak of scarlet sword Qi, covering the two Goblin Sword-Shieldmen standing at the very front! 【The effect of 【Desire lv2】 is triggered!

The damage of the skill released by the Scarlet Knight this time, 【Scarlet Slash】, is increased by 25%!】【-53！】

【-53！】

"Ugh!"

The Goblin Sword-Shieldmen standing in positions one and two let out wails of death, their bodies turning to ash and dissipating.

"Good luck!" Yun Mu raised an eyebrow.

If the damage increase from the Path of Desire hadn't triggered, the damage this time should have only been 41 points.

It would not have been enough to one-shot a Goblin Sword-Shieldman with 45 HP.

But who told her she was lucky? 【Goblin Thrower acts! (Speed 14)】

【Stun removed!】 (Skip Turn)

【Current Turn Number·2】

【Player Yun Mu acts first!】

"Hehe, after my turn, it's still my turn!"

Yun Mu looked at the message prompt popping up on the Game Panel and said with a wicked grin.

This is the true essence of a turn-based game!

【Mental Shock!】

【-104！】

"Guya."

The Goblin Thrower knelt powerlessly to the ground, and like his other three partners, his body turned to ash and dissipated.

However, the battle did not end; as the Goblin Thrower died, a line of text popped up before Yun Mu's eyes again.

【Enemy reinforcements have appeared!】

【You have encountered enemies——【Goblin Sword-Shieldman lv17 (Elite)】【Goblin Thrower lv16 (Elite)】【Goblin Thrower lv16 (Elite)】【Goblin Crossbowman lv15 (Elite)】】【Current Turn Number·2】

【Player Yun Mu acts first!】

"Huh, didn't I just act?" Yun Mu looked at the message prompt refreshing on the panel with some surprise.

Could it be that after the enemy receives reinforcements, the current turn resets, thereby re-evaluating character speed and current actions? Yun Mu made a reasonable hypothesis in her heart and speculated.

PS: Last time in the Dungeon, some people complained about the issue of having too much data.

When I was writing this time, I also considered whether I should still display the monster's panel.

And the final result is that I believe it is still necessary to display the monster's panel.

Conversely, in the future, after releasing new skills, I will no longer use that original set of lengthy skill descriptions. (I am referring to the monsters') (End of chapter)
