After entering the dungeon, the team suddenly realized that the place they entered is different than the normal mode of the map.

"Drink up your potions, Light start luring all the mobs on the left side, I'll lure the half", Zeek ordered.
"Are you serious!?, Light said.
"All of the DPS will position on the top of those 3, Zeek pointed 3 tall trees in the middle of the 2 separate mob groups, Light lure and kite the mobs on both of those trees, make sure you make an infinity path on booth trees while kiting them, after all the mobs reached the middle use your shield bash to stun them, "Zeek ordered.
"An infinity. . . OK, I got it."Light said.
The four positioned themselves and Light lured half of the mobs, Zeek then used Shadow Assassin Title buffing the whole team.
"T...These buffs are so OP," Grid said.
"Attack now talk later, the duration of the buff is just an hour", Zeek said
Zeek and Light started kiting all the mobs, after 30 minutes they cleared all the mobs in the vicinity.
The team picked a total of 15 weapons, 9 armors and 37 materials after killing 40 mobs, 7 blue colored items including a dagger, 2 shields, a bow, 3 staff, the armors consist of 3 sets of the archers lvl 20 sets [ Forrest Wind Set ], 2 pcs of [ Healing Wind Set ] For lvl 20 Clerics, 2 pcs of [ Wind Collector Set ] for magicians, 1 piece for [ Forrest Guardian ] level 20 set for Mercenaries and 1 piece [ Wind Runner Set ] for level 20 Thief.
After Fighting the Forrest Imps the 4 leveled up and became level 19, while Zeek has 95% exp bar.
"Seriously !?, I didn't even level up?" Zeek was shocked to see how slow his exp bar raise.
"Hell mode really gives you a lot of exp!," Grid amused in the leveling speed that they get
"I have new items but I can't even wear them", Zeek said feeling gloomy.
"Let's run it again so you can get enough exp to level up", Grid said and the three nodded.
"Next is the Tree Trent, we can do the same strategy that you used to defeat them", Zeek said
After walking to the location of the Tree Trent they saw 3 Mini-Bosses in the location.
"Three? damn it, This will be hard", Grid said.
"Any Ideas?" Lilly asked.
"Lure them 1 by 1, Divide and Conquer, Grid uses the furthest skill that you have than me and Light will both kite it," Zeek said.
Zeek used Shadow Inspect.

Grid then unleashed Blaze Arrow

"This will gonna take a while," Grid said
One of the Tree Trent started to walk toward then, suddenly Zeek disappeared.
"Zeek vanished!?"Light said.
Then the four of them saw Zeek appeared at the back of the Tree Trent and executed Shadow Transmission and followed it up with Shadow Bind

After the attack the Tree Trent regain his movement and tried to attack Zeek, Zeek then used Conceal Shadow to once again disappear. Zeek again appeared at the back of the Tree Trent and brandished his knives straight to the Trent's back
-442(Critical)
-437(Critical)
-421(Critical)
The whole team was shocked, Zeek moved for only 10 seconds and dealt damage of 3,533 on the Trent HP.
"What are you looking at!?, attack it now!, Grid position yourself at the Trent back for additional Critical Rate," Zeek said.
The whole team moved at the position that Zeek said and executed the plan perfectly, after an hour the three bosses died.
Light enveloped the team after fighting the Tree Trent, the rest became level 21 and Zeek's level jumped to level 17 and 52% exp bar.
The 3 Trent also dropped 15 items including 8 blue equips, after the battle, the team sorted all the lots and the 4 equipped all of there level 20 pieces of equipment giving the team much more firepower towards the boss.
Zeek then gave them rakes, the other where dumbfounded by Zeeks action.
"Do we need these things?," Grid asked.
"I'll explain later," Zeek replied.
As the team walked toward the area where the boss resides Zeek looked at the surroundings first. the terrain didn't change from the video that Grid sent him, a circular location with dried roots on the side forming a wall of broken trees and the floor covered with dried leaves.
"Okay, let's do an experiment, I'll tell you now the plan, after sending me the videos I noticed that every time Flaming Beauty cast her AOE skills the terrain on the Tree Trent doesn't move at all but in the Boss room is different, every walk and every skill you make made the terrain change."
Zeek then walked towards a bunch of leaves and grabbed them.
"See, it's different," Zeek said.
"What are we gonna now that?, Grid asked.
"See those Wall of dead trees and roots surrounding the Boss?" Zeek pointed out the wall made trees around them.
"Because of this special terrain the flow of wind is different after wind enters this terrain it will make a whirling form, and we will use it to make a Fire Devil.", Zeek said.
"A Fire Devil?", Light asked.
"A Fire Whirl, a tornado-like fire that can only be possible if the wind is rotating in an area, that's why I gave you does rake. start gathering the dried leaf towards the wall so we can start a fire," Zeek ordered the team to gather all the dried leaf and rake it to the side.
After 30 minutes of raking the surrounding area, the team was finished with the preparation, all that is left is if Zeek's plan will succeed.
"Flaming Beauty, try to cast your fire on the dry leaf, Zeek ordered".
As Flaming Beauty Cast a fire spell a notification appeared in front of her.
"Endless, A notification suddenly appeared after casting the skill.", Flaming Beauty said.
"What it says?", Zeek said.
System: This action will make the stage change, the circumstances may not be in favor of the party, are you sure you want to proceed?.
"Proceed on it, if it will not be in or favor ten so be it", Zeek smiled.
Flaming Beauty then cast a fire spell, after hitting the dried leaves a small fire started to erupt, the fire started enveloping the walls of rotting trees making the fire bigger, smoke started to circulate in the boss stage, after 20 seconds the whole floor is on fire, the team pulled out of the boss space letting the fire get wild, then a sudden notification appeared on the parties interface.
System: Because of the forest fire the King Trent suffered -30% of all attributes, received burn status -1% every 5 seconds and King Trent will be on Berserk Mode.
After the system popped up the team suddenly heard the scream of the King Trent.
"We're not done yet, Flaming cast any wind element on the right side!" Zeek ordered.
Flaming Beauty then cast Wind Howl, the whole team were shocked after the wind entered the fire area it started to attract the fire and smoke on the surrounding area and started to swirl inside the circular stage.
"Here it goes, the Fire Whirl", Grid said.
Fire suddenly formed a tornado made on fire hitting the King Trents location,

"all of you, prepare your self," Zeek ordered while the four nodded in unison

The King Trent raised both of its hand upward and towering roots appeared and rained down toward Zeek and Light, Zeek then used Shadow Transmission again to teleport his self on the back of the Trent, because of this attack the King Trent roots are stuck on the ground giving them both time and the chance to attack.
After lowering the Trent HP by 10% it started to heal itself by sticking his roots again on the soil.
"Attack the roots with fire elements, let's finish this thing now!", Zeek shouted.
after 5 minutes the Trent HP reached 0, a light enveloped the team making 4 of them level 24
and Zeek becoming level 20.

"H...Hell Mode!?"
Peppermint was shocked.
"Did they know some bug or cheat code! how can they finished the dungeon on hell mode with the types of equipment that they have!?."
Piercing Rose and the others were shocked to see the systems notice, Then a sudden call interrupted Piercing Rose gaze.
"A call from the elders?"
Piercing Rose received the call and a husky voice can be heard on the other line.
"Elder Sharp Fangs,"
"Someone finished the Trial of the forest, investigate in this matter immediately and report to the other elders." Sharp Fangs said.
"There is no need to investigate, we already know the team behind the team that finished both the Rock Empire and the Trial of the Forrest," Rose replied.
"Then extract some information regarding the Trial of the forest, we expect good news from you", Sharp Fangs ended the call.
"We need to negotiate with the team, so watch what you're saying in front of them", Piercing Rose said.
The Gate suddenly turned red again indicating a Hell mode dungeon, then Zeeks team came out of the portal.
After coming out, Zeek noticed Piercing Rose's team on the side, Rose then approached Zeek.
"Can we have a private talk?, Piercing Rose said."
"I don't have time, so if you want to ask something ask it now, don't beat around the bush anymore", Zeek replied
"How dare you speak to Rose like that!," Peppermint said.
"You are the one who needs something to me, why would I be polite with you? because you're old?" Zeek said
"I'm not old, I'm only 19!," Peppermint said.
Rose then waved her hand towards Peppermint gesturing her to shut up.
"Okay then, I need to know how you finished the Trial of the Forrest, I'll trade it for you if you want" Piercing Rose said.
Piercing Rose then opened his inventory and showed her item list.
"Pick anything there and I will give it to you", Piercing Rose said.
Zeek then looked at the items in her inventory and noticed a peculiar item.
"Can I see this items description". Zeek asked.
Rose then opened the items description box.

"This item, can I have it and an additional 40 gold coin for my teammates," Zeek said smiling
"H...How dare you! you're a shameless person you!", Peppermint said.
Light then approached Zeek.
"Endless, it's OK if we don't get the gold coins if you must have that item then take it", Light said.
"Hahaha. . . don't worry about that, as you said, The Guild Cloud Nine is a rich guild so asking them that price is just common sense." Zeek shamelessly said.
"You little!"
Before Peppermint can talk again Piercing Rose stopped her.
"I'll give it all if you sign a contract that you will not tell the other guild about the way to finished the Trial of the Forest", Rose said.
"No can do, If you want I can delay the other guilds from knowing, but I need additional compensation for the lost business opportunity", Zeek said.
Rose then clenched her fist and grind her teeth.
"Rose, this is just too much for a low dungeon like this!?", Peppermint said.
"You know about the movement of Cloud Seven and Cloud Six right?", Rose said to Peppermint
Peppermint fell silent after hearing what rose said, little did they now that Zeek heard about the conversation.
"So there are other guilds that the Elders handled including Cloud Nine, Is it OK if all of the Cloud Guilds have an Auction about the information that I have?", Zeek shamelessly asked.
"Are you serious right know!?," Peppermint said
"Hey, Miss Rose I'll give the information to you for the first price in one condition, let me kill this girl back to level 0", Zeek said.
Piercing Rose and the others where shocked, they didn't think that a kid can be this straight forward, with a serious glare of Zeek, Peppermint stayed silent.
"OK, so I think this talk is over now, excuse us", Zeek said.
"P...Please, sorry for the rudeness that Peppermint caused, she has that temper, May I suggest a private talk between you and me." Piercing Rose suggested.
"Do you intend to waste my time with all of your none sense, I said don't beat around the bush, I set my price, it's your time to decide," Zeek said.
"Can you give me time to call someone?", Rose said.
"What about this, War Goddess, let's have a match, if you win I'll give you a fair price but if you don't, I will double it," Zeek said.
Zeek then saw a little smirk on Rose's smile, suddenly Rose laughed loudly and then smiled.
"You really are different, you keep saying "don't beat around the bush", But you're giving me all these impossible demands so you can have a reason to fight me". Rose said.
"Ohhhh, you got me," Zeek smiled.
"I'll create a room and send you the password then, let's talk there privately", Rose said.
"That's more like it", Zeek smiled.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
After entering the dungeon, the team suddenly realized that the place they entered is different than the normal mode of the map.

"A call from the elders?"
Piercing Rose received the call and a husky voice can be heard on the other line.
"Elder Sharp Fangs,"
"Someone finished the Trial of the forest, investigate in this matter immediately and report to the other elders." Sharp Fangs said.
"There is no need to investigate, we already know the team behind the team that finished both the Rock Empire and the Trial of the Forrest," Rose replied.
"Then extract some information regarding the Trial of the forest, we expect good news from you", Sharp Fangs ended the call.
"We need to negotiate with the team, so watch what you're saying in front of them", Piercing Rose said.
The Gate suddenly turned red again indicating a Hell mode dungeon, then Zeeks team came out of the portal.
After coming out, Zeek noticed Piercing Rose's team on the side, Rose then approached Zeek.
"Can we have a private talk?, Piercing Rose said."
"I don't have time, so if you want to ask something ask it now, don't beat around the bush anymore", Zeek replied
"How dare you speak to Rose like that!," Peppermint said.
"You are the one who needs something to me, why would I be polite with you? because you're old?" Zeek said
"I'm not old, I'm only 19!," Peppermint said.
Rose then waved her hand towards Peppermint gesturing her to shut up.
"Okay then, I need to know how you finished the Trial of the Forrest, I'll trade it for you if you want" Piercing Rose said.
Piercing Rose then opened his inventory and showed her item list.
"Pick anything there and I will give it to you", Piercing Rose said.
Zeek then looked at the items in her inventory and noticed a peculiar item.
"Can I see this items description". Zeek asked.
Rose then opened the items description box.

"This item, can I have it and an additional 40 gold coin for my teammates," Zeek said smiling
"H...How dare you! you're a shameless person you!", Peppermint said.
Light then approached Zeek.
"Endless, it's OK if we don't get the gold coins if you must have that item then take it", Light said.
"Hahaha. . . don't worry about that, as you said, The Guild Cloud Nine is a rich guild so asking them that price is just common sense." Zeek shamelessly said.
"You little!"
Before Peppermint can talk again Piercing Rose stopped her.
"I'll give it all if you sign a contract that you will not tell the other guild about the way to finished the Trial of the Forest", Rose said.
"No can do, If you want I can delay the other guilds from knowing, but I need additional compensation for the lost business opportunity", Zeek said.
Rose then clenched her fist and grind her teeth.
"Rose, this is just too much for a low dungeon like this!?", Peppermint said.
"You know about the movement of Cloud Seven and Cloud Six right?", Rose said to Peppermint
Peppermint fell silent after hearing what rose said, little did they now that Zeek heard about the conversation.
"So there are other guilds that the Elders handled including Cloud Nine, Is it OK if all of the Cloud Guilds have an Auction about the information that I have?", Zeek shamelessly asked.
"Are you serious right know!?," Peppermint said
"Hey, Miss Rose I'll give the information to you for the first price in one condition, let me kill this girl back to level 0", Zeek said.
Piercing Rose and the others where shocked, they didn't think that a kid can be this straight forward, with a serious glare of Zeek, Peppermint stayed silent.
"OK, so I think this talk is over now, excuse us", Zeek said.
"P...Please, sorry for the rudeness that Peppermint caused, she has that temper, May I suggest a private talk between you and me." Piercing Rose suggested.
"Do you intend to waste my time with all of your none sense, I said don't beat around the bush, I set my price, it's your time to decide," Zeek said.
"Can you give me time to call someone?", Rose said.
"What about this, War Goddess, let's have a match, if you win I'll give you a fair price but if you don't, I will double it," Zeek said.
Zeek then saw a little smirk on Rose's smile, suddenly Rose laughed loudly and then smiled.
"You really are different, you keep saying "don't beat around the bush", But you're giving me all these impossible demands so you can have a reason to fight me". Rose said.
"Ohhhh, you got me," Zeek smiled.
"I'll create a room and send you the password then, let's talk there privately", Rose said.
"That's more like it", Zeek smiled.
After entering the dungeon, the team suddenly realized that the place they entered is different than the normal mode of the map."It. . . It's Nighttime?," Grid said."The map layout is the same, but the mobs. . . the mobs are two times more and the level is all level 20". Lilly Blossom said.Zeek used Shadow Inspect.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Forrest Imp Level 20 Element: EarthRace: BruteSize: SmallHP: 500/500"Drink up your potions, Light start luring all the mobs on the left side, I'll lure the half", Zeek ordered."Are you serious!?, Light said."All of the DPS will position on the top of those 3, Zeek pointed 3 tall trees in the middle of the 2 separate mob groups, Light lure and kite the mobs on both of those trees, make sure you make an infinity path on booth trees while kiting them, after all the mobs reached the middle use your shield bash to stun them, "Zeek ordered."An infinity. . . OK, I got it."Light said.The four positioned themselves and Light lured half of the mobs, Zeek then used Shadow Assassin Title buffing the whole team."T...These buffs are so OP," Grid said."Attack now talk later, the duration of the buff is just an hour", Zeek saidZeek and Light started kiting all the mobs, after 30 minutes they cleared all the mobs in the vicinity.The team picked a total of 15 weapons, 9 armors and 37 materials after killing 40 mobs, 7 blue colored items including a dagger, 2 shields, a bow, 3 staff, the armors consist of 3 sets of the archers lvl 20 sets Forrest Wind Set , 2 pcs of Healing Wind Set For lvl 20 Clerics, 2 pcs of Wind Collector Set for magicians, 1 piece for Forrest Guardian level 20 set for Mercenaries and 1 piece Wind Runner Set for level 20 Thief.After Fighting the Forrest Imps the 4 leveled up and became level 19, while Zeek has 95% exp bar."Seriously !?, I didn't even level up?" Zeek was shocked to see how slow his exp bar raise."Hell mode really gives you a lot of exp!," Grid amused in the leveling speed that they get"I have new items but I can't even wear them", Zeek said feeling gloomy."Let's run it again so you can get enough exp to level up", Grid said and the three nodded."Next is the Tree Trent, we can do the same strategy that you used to defeat them", Zeek saidAfter walking to the location of the Tree Trent they saw 3 Mini-Bosses in the location."Three? damn it, This will be hard", Grid said."Any Ideas?" Lilly asked."Lure them 1 by 1, Divide and Conquer, Grid uses the furthest skill that you have than me and Light will both kite it," Zeek said.Zeek used Shadow Inspect.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tree Trent Level 25 Element: EarthRace: BruteSize: LargeHP: 30000/30000---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"It has 30,000 HP," Zeek saidGrid then unleashed Blaze Arrow-102"This will gonna take a while," Grid saidOne of the Tree Trent started to walk toward then, suddenly Zeek disappeared."Zeek vanished!?"Light said.Then the four of them saw Zeek appeared at the back of the Tree Trent and executed Shadow Transmission and followed it up with Shadow Bind-567 CriticalZeek then used Shadow Manipulation to unleash his shadow and both unleashed 3 consecutive normal attacks.-234-456 Critical-423Critical-132-154-267CriticalAfter the attack the Tree Trent regain his movement and tried to attack Zeek, Zeek then used Conceal Shadow to once again disappear. Zeek again appeared at the back of the Tree Trent and brandished his knives straight to the Trent's back-442Critical-437Critical-421CriticalThe whole team was shocked, Zeek moved for only 10 seconds and dealt damage of 3,533 on the Trent HP."What are you looking at!?, attack it now!, Grid position yourself at the Trent back for additional Critical Rate," Zeek said.The whole team moved at the position that Zeek said and executed the plan perfectly, after an hour the three bosses died.Light enveloped the team after fighting the Tree Trent, the rest became level 21 and Zeek's level jumped to level 17 and 52% exp bar.The 3 Trent also dropped 15 items including 8 blue equips, after the battle, the team sorted all the lots and the 4 equipped all of there level 20 pieces of equipment giving the team much more firepower towards the boss.Zeek then gave them rakes, the other where dumbfounded by Zeeks action."Do we need these things?," Grid asked."I'll explain later," Zeek replied.As the team walked toward the area where the boss resides Zeek looked at the surroundings first. the terrain didn't change from the video that Grid sent him, a circular location with dried roots on the side forming a wall of broken trees and the floor covered with dried leaves."Okay, let's do an experiment, I'll tell you now the plan, after sending me the videos I noticed that every time Flaming Beauty cast her AOE skills the terrain on the Tree Trent doesn't move at all but in the Boss room is different, every walk and every skill you make made the terrain change."Zeek then walked towards a bunch of leaves and grabbed them."See, it's different," Zeek said."What are we gonna now that?, Grid asked."See those Wall of dead trees and roots surrounding the Boss?" Zeek pointed out the wall made trees around them."Because of this special terrain the flow of wind is different after wind enters this terrain it will make a whirling form, and we will use it to make a Fire Devil.", Zeek said."A Fire Devil?", Light asked."A Fire Whirl, a tornado-like fire that can only be possible if the wind is rotating in an area, that's why I gave you does rake. start gathering the dried leaf towards the wall so we can start a fire," Zeek ordered the team to gather all the dried leaf and rake it to the side.After 30 minutes of raking the surrounding area, the team was finished with the preparation, all that is left is if Zeek's plan will succeed."Flaming Beauty, try to cast your fire on the dry leaf, Zeek ordered".As Flaming Beauty Cast a fire spell a notification appeared in front of her."Endless, A notification suddenly appeared after casting the skill.", Flaming Beauty said."What it says?", Zeek said.System: This action will make the stage change, the circumstances may not be in favor of the party, are you sure you want to proceed?."Proceed on it, if it will not be in or favor ten so be it", Zeek smiled.Flaming Beauty then cast a fire spell, after hitting the dried leaves a small fire started to erupt, the fire started enveloping the walls of rotting trees making the fire bigger, smoke started to circulate in the boss stage, after 20 seconds the whole floor is on fire, the team pulled out of the boss space letting the fire get wild, then a sudden notification appeared on the parties interface.System: Because of the forest fire the King Trent suffered -30% of all attributes, received burn status -1% every 5 seconds and King Trent will be on Berserk Mode.After the system popped up the team suddenly heard the scream of the King Trent."We're not done yet, Flaming cast any wind element on the right side!" Zeek ordered.Flaming Beauty then cast Wind Howl, the whole team were shocked after the wind entered the fire area it started to attract the fire and smoke on the surrounding area and started to swirl inside the circular stage."Here it goes, the Fire Whirl", Grid said.Fire suddenly formed a tornado made on fire hitting the King Trents location,-5000-5000-5000-5000-5000After the Fire Whirls damaged the HP bar of The King Trent dropped 30%, Zeek then used Shadow Inspect.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- King Trent Level 30 Element: EarthRace: BruteSize: GiganticHP: 52,500/75,000---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The King Trent then uprooted his roots and waved his branches around with great gust of wind the fire whirl was extinguished."all of you, prepare your self," Zeek ordered while the four nodded in unisonZeek then used Shadow Transmission and appeared at the King Trent back, he then used Shadow Bind to stun the King Trent, Zeek then released Shadow Manipulation creating a copy of himself and brandished the back of the King Trent-334 Critical-197-336 Critical-102-97-92"Light use shield bash to transfer aggro!" Zeek orderedAfter Aggro Zeek and Light kited the Trent King towards Grid and the team"All of you position yourself on top the Boss after I stun him again, after climbing set the leaves on fire Beauty while Grid shoots the Boss roots with fire arrow skills," Zeek ordered.After stunning the boss both Flaming Beauty and Grid climbed and burned the Trent leaf-320-475-220-501The King Trent raised both of its hand upward and towering roots appeared and rained down toward Zeek and Light, Zeek then used Shadow Transmission again to teleport his self on the back of the Trent, because of this attack the King Trent roots are stuck on the ground giving them both time and the chance to attack.After lowering the Trent HP by 10% it started to heal itself by sticking his roots again on the soil."Attack the roots with fire elements, let's finish this thing now!", Zeek shouted.after 5 minutes the Trent HP reached 0, a light enveloped the team making 4 of them level 24and Zeek becoming level 20.Almost a pile of items appeared on the King Trent body"Jackpot! this is gold ranked items, this is so awesome!"
