Chapter 281: The Team Charges In

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Light and Dark Instances are composed of five level 40, 5-man Small Instance Dungeons; five level 50, 5-man Small Instance Dungeons; five level 60; 5-man Small Instance Dungeons and the remainders are all large-sized raids. The difficulty ranges from high to low, and it would satisfy nearly every players’ leveling needs.

Among the five level 40 5-man Small Instance Dungeons, Light’s Beginning that Li Yi had cleared was of medium difficulty. Whereas Light’s Duel that was cleared by the Southern Continent’s Violent Warrior Gai’er was the easiest one, and The Cursed Rider that took both Big Boy and Lil Girl’s combined effort to beat was the toughest of them all.

Li Yi looted Leos’ corpse, but only obtained a piece of level 40 gold-colored equipment meant for Warriors. Just as he exited the Instance Dungeon and was proceeding to the next one, the System had made its first kill announcement once again.

Within 2 hours of Victory’s Gate’s launch, all 5 level 40 Small Instance Dungeons’ First Kills have already been claimed!

What defines competition? As players from 3 major camps contest against one another, even a reincarnated Li Yi would have difficulty handling the current scenario. Now this, is the true definition of competition.

Big Boy, Lil Girl, and Gai’er are all players from the Southern Continent. However, they differ in the fact that Big Boy and Lil Girl are best friends, whereas Gai’er was a lone ranger.

Li Yi was not familiar with Gai’er, but he knows that Gai’er prefers to be in solitude, and this particular manner of his would give the Eastern Continent’s Lonely Semi City a run for their money. However, Li Yi was particularly familiar with both Big Boy and Lil Girl, as the both of them were Qian’er’s best friends in real life.

In his previous life, Li Yi was hounded by all the players in the Northern Continent, but during his visit to the Southern Continent for a quest, he had met Qian’er by pure chance. Following that, he had acquainted himself with both Big Boy and Lil Girl, and after a series of developments he and Qian’er had somehow ended up together.

In Li Yi’s perspective, it was truly a mystery as to how they ended up together, as he had considered his past self to be unworthy of Qian’er. Nevertheless, reality worked in strange ways as it had brought two people of polarizing statuses together.

Li Yi held no grudges against Big Boy. Despite his sharp tongue, Big Boy’s actions were honest and truthful as he spoke his mind and hid no schemes. The only incident that left Li Yi feeling conflicted was when Big Boy had proposed marriage to Qian’er, and to his surprise, Qian’er had accepted the proposal. Worst still, the date of the marriage had coincided with the God Wars.

‘Had the accident not happened, what would the present me be like? Would Big Boy and Qian’er really tie the knot? Why couldn’t I see that they had feelings brewing for one another before this?’

‘Or rather, were they only doing it for the sake of provoking me?’

Li Yi’s head was about to explode just by thinking of the matter…

“Dark Wing, I’m currently at Dragonbone Waste, party up with me!” read the message sent by Little Elf from the Magical Realm.

“Guild Master, I have arrived at Dragonbone,” announced Fire Ice upon arrival.

Originally Platinum Hand’s leader, Xu Man had also messaged him. “Dark Wing, I just saw your first kill notification. Man, you really need to form a party with me.”

“Don’t forget about me! We’re going together as sisters,” said Moonlight Ocean.

“Guild Master, Me! Me! Me!” Old Wolf Wu’s message was more aggressive than any other.

“Guild Master, I-I want to join as well…”

“Guild Master, please don’t forget about Lil Chen Lang from the outskirts of the moat…”

The private messages came one after another, and as the number of players who had cleared the opening quest increase, Li Yi added the first 4 people who messaged him into his party. Following this, he sent a message to all his friends, stating that the party was full and they had to find a new party themselves.

“Damn, what a waste.”

“Boo hoo, I was too late…”

The reason for the frustrated cries was due to a saying circulating on the official page, that as long as you followed Dark Shadow into an Instance Dungeon, you could obtain the First Kill, even if all 4 of the party members were level 1 alt accounts.

Lil man sighed, “Two healers and two thieves, this party sure is strong.”

“Sister, do you see it? All of us are girls!” Moonlight Ocean said sourly.

“Our Guild Master’s character was obvious since early on,” snickered Lil Man.

“My character has always been well-mannered. As to our composition of dual thieves and healers, it’s all for the sake of beating this Instance Dungeon. Now, cut the cr*p and come here quickly, I’ll be waiting by the dungeon gate.”

5 minutes later, the four girls arrived at Li Yi’s side, and together, prepared to enter the Instance Dungeon.

Since all five of the level 40 Small Instance Dungeon’s first kills were claimed, Li Yi shifted his focus to the level 50, 5-man Instance Dungeons.

The Instance Dungeon, Holy Light Redemption, that Li Yi chose was the easiest among the five level 50 Small Instance Dungeons.

“We’ll ignore the hard ones for now. Let’s clear the easier ones first.”

With a wave of his hand, they entered the Instance Dungeon.

All the information of ‘Activated’ Instance Dungeons within the King of Pantheon could be accessed by clicking on the ‘Instance Dungeon’ option, no matter the time or place. The difficulty of the Instance Dungeons was rated from one to ten stars, whereby one star was the easiest and ten stars was the hardest. Furthermore, the strategy for each Instance Dungeon was different, and the ten star dungeons can appear as hell-level or normal levels as well.

The Instance Dungeon that Li Yi had chosen, Holy Light Redemption, was rated 4 stars for its difficulty and was the easiest among the five level 50 Instance Dungeons.

As Li Yi led the four girls into the dungeon, a crowd of people had already gathered outside the ruins of the ancient civilization. The number of players who had cleared the opening quest was only increasing, and when players from three different camps collide, an inevitable large-scale battle erupted…

“Brothers from the Eastern and Southern Continent, please do not fight. Let us compete fairly for the first kill!”

Countless fireballs and ice projectiles flew. Shockwaves were released waves after waves, and among those fighting, there was a huge portion of players who did not want to fight. However, under the circumstances, it was not up to them to decide.

Many capable players were massacred, and as reinforcements joined the fray, the battle seemed endless…

The little monsters within Holy Light Redemption were no longer ancient undead, but Paladins that were brainwashed by the King of Souls.

“There are currently 20 parties present within the Instance Dungeon, and the party with the fastest progression has already made it to the second Boss. Sisters, we’ll need to make haste.”

Li Yi blew a whistle and Violent Bear King was summoned. As the party was composed of two thieves and two healers, there was no main tank, and the only solution was for Violent Bear King to be the tank instead.

Fortunately, once 45 Pet Path Skill Points have been obtained, in addition to unlocking the limits of changing pets, the hidden stats of the pet will also be unleashed. As Violent Bear King’s attributes have been massively upgraded, having it play the role of the main tank was no problem at all.

“How did you know that there are 20 parties within this Instance Dungeon?” Moonlight Ocean asked. Ever since they met in reality, she no longer typed her messages, opting to use voice chat instead.

“By checking the dungeon status, duh, my cute little sister,” said Lil Man as she gently tapped Moonlight Ocean’s forehead.

“I’m older than you, call me big sis.” Little Elf from the Magical Realm snorted at Li Yi as she walked ahead.

Li Yi responded with a chuckle, not even attempting to argue. He commanded Violent Bear King to walk in front while he stayed behind to explain to the four ladies the strategy to conquering Holy Light Redemption.

If Li Yi had come alone, he would have already pushed ahead. However, he had brought in 4 teammates. Thus, it was important for him to go through the strategy, as the slightest mishap might mean the annihilation of the entire team.

“The little monsters from this stage are all humanoids, they are of flesh and meat, possessing high offensive capabilities and could cast unlimited healing spells. One cast of Holy Light Shockwave and it will heal them for 50 thousand health points. Should we meet more than 5 of them at the same time, the damage we deal will still be lesser than the amount they heal, even if we fight aggressively.”

“I know, I’ll use sap to control them.” Lil Man had understood what to do.

Li Yi nodded his head, saying “You sisters will be using sap to control one unit each. Little elf, focus on DPS, there is no need for healing. All the small monsters here can cast Punish Ring, so Ice will need to cast team-wide healing.”

“Do you all understand?”

“Understood.”

“Alright, move out!”

5 Paladins appeared before them, using stealth, the two siblings had sneaked past them.

“Sis, is Momo behaving herself lately?”

Little Elf from the Magical Realm’s face turned red, as she coughed, saying, “Momo has always behaved well.”

“Oh…”

“Boom! Boom!”

The siblings both used sap, causing two of the Paladins to enter the disoriented state. This was a control skill usable only by thieves. It was ineffective against bosses, but by re-casting the skill, it could control small monsters that are of blood and flesh indefinitely.

Li Yi cast Mislead on Violent Bear King, with all three arrows shot simultaneously. That caused the other three Paladins’ aggro to be pulled towards it.

“KILL THE INTRUDERS.”

“Long live the King of Souls!”

“In the name of the Holy Light…”

The three knights shouted their battle cries as they charged towards Violent Bear King, surrounding it and attacking in a frenzy.
