Li Yi did not help Jiaojiao to level today. He was heading to the Western Continent, preparing to fulfill his promise with Autumn Love.

The 1,000,000 Gold had already been paid, the only debt that Li Yi still owed was to bring Autumn Love on three dungeon runs.

“Missy Autumn, which dungeon are you planning to run?”

“The Demoness Ruins!”

“… How many people do we have?”

“Including you, we have five.”

“…”

The Demoness Ruins was a special type of dungeon. The most unique part of it was that it had no level requirements. No matter if a player was Level 1 or Level 100, they could still enter the dungeon an unlimited amount of times without any cooldowns. However, every time a player enters the dungeon, they had to pay an ‘entry fee’ of 100 Demoness’ Snake Hair.

‘Running a Level 50 dungeon, with five people, at these levels…”

As Li Yi flew towards the dungeon, he asked Autumn Love, “How much Demoness’ Snake Hair did you prepare?”

“I have a little over 500 of those things, it should be enough to run the dungeon three times.”

“It’s 100 per run, you might as well give me the remaining 200 to make some potions. That way, we’ll have a much easier dungeon run.”

“30 Gold per hair, how much do you want?”

Li Yi was stunned.

“Say something. Do you want them or not?”

“I don’t want them anymore!”

Li Yi was utterly enraged by Autumn Love’s proposition.

“Tsk, the market price is 30 gold per hair as well. Why wouldn’t you want ’em? How stingy!”

Li Yi moved south, passing through the western part of the icy plains before arriving at the entrance of the Demoness’ Ruins at Demon’s Ridge.

He had run the Demoness’ Ruins a few times before, but due to the high ‘entry fee’ for the dungeon, he stopped running it after a few times. He could not bear the cost. The measly amount of drops was not worth the high ‘entry fee’. Who in the right mind would want to operate a business with poor profits?

The Demoness’ Snake Hair could only be dropped by the snake-type monsters around the Demon’s Ridge. Furthermore, the drop rate of this item was extremely low. It was almost as rare as the Crimson Tiger King mount. Even after killing several thousands of snake monsters, one would be considered lucky to even get a single hair out of all that effort. There was also the fact that this stuff could be used to make potions, causing many Apothecarists to want said item to boost their mastery levels. Hence, the prices for it would naturally be extremely high.

Due to the rarity of the Demoness’ Snake Hair, the Demoness’ Ruins had become one of the least popular dungeons in King of Pantheon.

When Li Yi reached his destination, Autumn Love was still not there yet. Since he had nothing better to do, Li Yi rode on his Holy Light Warhorse and equipped his Murloc Crossbow. Roaming around the area, he started to hunt for snake monsters.

The snake monsters around Demon’s Ridge were all Lamias. Their levels ranged from 1 to 100. Some of them were so weak that they would die in one hit, whereas others were nearly as strong as a boss.

The snake monsters could be differentiated by gender. The male snakes were bald, so naturally, they could not drop any Snake Hair. Only female snake monsters had a small chance of dropping them. However, compared to male snake monsters, female snake monsters were spawned at a much lower rate.

Li Yi picked his targets, only aiming for the female snake monsters whilst using Camouflage and Pseudocide. After ten minutes, he miraculously picked up three Demoness’ Snake Hair.

Li Yi sent another message over to Autumn Love, “Missy Autumn, are you here yet?”

“Soon, soon!”

“Need me to summon y’all over? You’ll get here immediately, saving the traveling time.”

“No need, no need. We’ll be there soon, soon!”

After five more minutes, Autumn Love arrived at the dungeon entrance with the other three party members.

Li Yi was completely shocked by the identities of the three people standing behind Autumn Love.

The three players did not have their names hidden. They were the Southern Continent’s Dark Wizard God Big Boy and Light Saintess Lil Girl, and the Western Continent’s Legendary Thief God-Killing Gale!

He expected Autumn Love to invite a couple of pros to the party, but never would he have expected that, out of all people, this would be the group she had invited.

“Let me introduce you guys. This person here is Eastern Continent’s Dark Wing. I believe that even if you guys haven’t met him personally, you must’ve had heard of him before, right?”

After Autumn Love introduced the group to each other, the five people from different camps were supposed to band together and form a party.

“I’ve heard great things about you, it’s such an honor to finally meet you.” Big Boy reached his hand out towards Li Yi.

Li Yi smiled lightly and shook the outstretched hand.

Never would he have thought that this would be how he meets Big Boy in this lifetime…

Lil Girl smiled at Li Yi briefly before lowering her head. When Big Boy turned over to God-Killing Gale motioning for a handshake, God-Killing Gale just coldly snorted, completely ignoring Big Boy’s gesture.

Big Boy felt a bit awkward. He added, “A smile upon meeting shall kill all enmity. C’mon Brother Gale, don’t be like this.”

God-Killing Gale already seemed to hate Big Boy. Once he heard those words, he was completely enraged. He pulled out his dual blades and started lashing out at Big Boy.

“Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The two slashes hit, causing Big Boy’s HP to drop by more than 1,000.

God-Killing Gale’s skills were comparable to Bloody Rose. He was also one of the legendary players of the Western Continent. However, unlike the Bloody Rose, he had always kept a low profile, so a lot of players had the misconstrued perception that he was weaker than Bloody Rose.

In reality, the two’s skills were near equal. Hell, in Li Yi’s eyes, God-Killing Gale was much stronger than Bloody Rose.

“Why’re you so belligerent? Let’s talk it out, man.”

Big Boy used Frost Rising Star to freeze God-Killing Gale in place before Using Flash to increase their distance.

“Stop! Stop!” Autumn Love frantically stepped in between the two to stop them. Once the Frost Rising Star’s effect was over, God-Killing Gale angrily stomped his foot, but did not pursue Big Boy further.

Autumn Love was quite angry at the two. “Are you guys done? You’ve been fighting the entire journey here! Please, I don’t give a crap about any past grudges you guys have with each other, but if you want to fight, at least save it for after we finish running the dungeon!”

‘Fighting during the entire journey here?’ Li Yi was surprised at the revelation.

‘No wonder they were so late…’

“It’s him or me, no other way around it!” God-Killing Gale angrily pointed at Big Boy.

This time, even Lil Girl tried to talk them out of fighting, “Stop fighting! Aren’t we all here today because we owe Lil Love a favor? Think, isn’t it inappropriate for you guys to be fighting it out right now?”

“Hmph!” God-Killing Gale snorted in reply to Lil Girl’s words.

Autumn Love also started to feel angry. “I honestly give up. B*tch please, you guys are now WORKING FOR ME! So, from now on, listen to MY orders. If you guys want to fight so much, wait until we clear the dungeon, then you guys can fight all you want, I won’t give a crap.

“If you don’t want to run the dungeon? Pay up!”

Autumn Love reached out her hand.

“I have no issues with that. When we’re running the dungeon, I won’t try any funny business. I swear I’ll put my all into it.” Big Boy stated with a cheeky smile.

“Hmph!” God-Killing Gale snorted once more. After deliberating for a moment, he reluctantly nodded.

“Enter the dungeon!”

Ordered the Party Leader Autumn Love.

The five players walked into the dungeon one after the other.

The Demoness’ Ruins dungeon was set inside a cave. There were a total of three bosses inside. All the mobs in the dungeon were Lamias whose levels would adjust accordingly to the level of the party.

Just as the five walked into the dungeon, they saw a patrolling snake monster wielding a pitchfork rushing towards them. Since Big Boy was the first to enter the dungeon, he made the first move. Waving his wand around, he unleashed Black Hole, pulling in the snake monsters.

[-1233]

[-1121]

[-1022]

The Dark Wizard’s Black Hole skill was very strong. It could create a Black Hole at any position within a 30 yards radius around the user, pulling in any enemies within range and dealing damage over time.

God-Killing Gale had also used Cyclone Step to charge in, the two daggers in his hand waving around continuously as a combo counter appeared on top of his head.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

After a 6-hit combo, God-Killing Gale finally went for his big finisher, causing a big [-19765] to appear on top of the snake monster’s head.

A 6-hit combo Cyclone, the execution difficulty was average.

Li Yi also started to make his move. Wielding the Murloc Crossbow in his hands he started firing rapidly. Although he did not make any combos, each of his hits dealt a huge chunk of damage. He had an even higher damage output than God-Killing Gale.

As Big Boy’s Black Hole ended, the patrolling snake monster’s HP dropped to zero. It let out a cry of agony before flopping onto the ground.

[You gained 745 EXP…]

Looking at the EXP he gained, Li Yi was once again surprised.

The mobs in the Demoness’ Ruins would adjust their levels based on the players’ levels. It does not follow the party’s average level, but rather the highest level amongst the members. For example, if a party consists of one Level 100 player and four Level 1 players, all the mobs in the dungeon would be at Level 100…

Li Yi was already at Level 71, but the EXP gained was 7,465.

‘This could only mean that… there’s a player in the party that was at Level 74!’

God-Killing Gale laughed coldly at Big Boy, “What a high level, Big Boy! You’ve surprised me once again.”

God-Killing Gale had the same thought process as Li Yi.

Big Boy answered with a look of confusion, “But I’m only Level 60, I’m still far weaker than all of you masters. You really shouldn’t praise me that much, I might get too happy!”

‘Playing dumb!’

Li Yi and God-Killing Gale secretly raised their middle fingers in reply.

Due to the highest level of the party being Level 75, all the mobs in the Demoness’ Ruins dungeon had over 100,000 HP.

Just as God-Killing Gale wanted to loot the snake monster’s corpse, Autumn Love yelled out loud.

“Stop!”

System Notification: [Party Leader Autumn Love has changed the loot settings to Master Loot.]

As this notification popped up in everyone’s UI, Autumn Love immediately used Flash to move up to the snake Lamia’s corpse and started looting.

‘Are you a necrophiliac?’

Li Yi was stunned.

“F*cking money grubber!” God-Killing Gale spat out.

After Autumn Love finished looting the snake monster, she pulled out a Dismantling Knife and started peeling the snakeskin. She then used her Gathering skill to collect the snake bones. When she was done with it, the snake monster’s corpse had completely disappeared.

Everything was cleanly dismantled, not a single part of it was wasted.

“All of these things are worth money!” Autumn Love said with a satisfied look.

Big Boy did not get it. “Cough, Missy Autumn, I heard that you’re making bank at your Betting House. Why’re you bothering with something just some spare change…”

Autumn Love grinned cheekily, “You don’t become rich by wasting money. Unlike you guys, I’m not wealthy enough to just ignore all this money lying around.”

“Err…”

God-Killing Gale used Stealth to scout ahead. There were not any patrolling snake monsters left, but rather an entire squad of snake monsters blocking the path ahead. There were more than 20 of them clustered together, hissing, seemingly talking about something.

“Dark Wing, it’s all yours.” Big Boy smiled at Li Yi.

Li Yi smiled back. Using Mislead on Big Boy, he shot out an arrow and dropped to the ground using Pseudocide.

The cluster did not get aggro’d, but only the snake monster that got hit reacted. Its movement speed was extremely high. Wielding its dual blades up high, it hissed at Big Boy.

This snake monster had over a million HP, it was definitely an Elite-level.

“I’m not the MT, I won’t be able to take the hits.”

Big Boy shouted out as he Flashed to Li Yi who was still in the Pseudocide state. Pulling out a flute, he started frantically playing it.

“Teet teet toot, teet teet toot, teet teet toot…”

Li Yi who was in Pseudocide involuntarily stood back up and started twisting his hips to the sound of the flute, dancing a weird dance.

‘You motherf*cker, to think you’d use the Dancing Flute…’

The snake monster rushed over with its double blades up high, slashing it downwards at Li Yi.
