After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 696 - 490, Ferocious Tiger, clear World Tree floors 22 and 23_2

Chapter 696: 490, Ferocious Tiger, clear World Tree floors 22 and 23_2

In a few breaths, they were nearly annihilated.

The back row of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team only had two people, but their output was extremely high!

Taige leapt forward to face the Poison Flower King and bellowed, “Ultimate Skill, Tiger Roar Fist!”

Flames burst forth from her fists, coalescing into a lifelike tiger phantom.

The dark and dank marsh was lit up by the firelight.

The Poison Flower King felt the power contained in that punch and recoiled in fear, contracting its buds and weaving its vines into a shield.

“Useless!”

Taige laughed.

She was a Fire Series Fighter, battling the Poison Flower King—a Grass System Magical Creature. With attribute suppression, her damage could increase by half.

Her punch shattered the King’s vines with ease and landed solidly in the middle of its bud.

-200,000!

A staggering number in blood red appeared!

All one could see was a black hole on the Poison Flower King’s bud as it writhed in pain, its vines beating chaotically.

“Geez, the damage from that dumb tiger is so high?”

Lin Da, who was chanting Verdant Shield, took in a sharp breath.

Even with a 50% damage bonus from fire attacking grass, the number was still impressively high.

Lin Da’s own Second-tier Demon Heart Slash was only capable of dealing 200,000 damage.

But it required sacrificing half his health and gathering Black Flame.

It was much slower to execute compared to Tiger Roar Fist.

The advantage of a Fighter was clear, quick to act and substantial in hit points.

The only disadvantage was their short reach, lacking any long-range skills and having to get up close to hit the monsters.

But this drawback was trivial as long as their damage output was high.

Watching Taige’s violent assault on the Poison Flower King, Lin Da felt like he’d stumbled upon a treasure.

Moments later, everyone quickly surrounded the Poison Flower King.

Lin Da unleashed Magic Heart Slash, Lulu used Frost Wolf’s Bite.

Mingli contributed with the skill Chaotic Shear.

As a Dark Series warrior, Mingli’s attacks included stickiness damage, similar to Lin Da’s Poison Series, making for strong sustained output.

After a barrage of attacks, the Poison Flower King’s health points plummeted rapidly.

Its vines were broken, its buds shriveled and wilted, and it was on the brink of defeat.

With the addition of two new members, a noticeable change was felt immediately.

Lin Da barely exerted any effort, and they entered the Poison Flower King’s final phase without much trouble.

Taige’s output was quite impressive, and Mingli’s total damage was stronger than most warriors.

Monica, now at Moon Rank, had the rare technique “Cheer!” which significantly increased the casting speed of the next three spells.

The triple attack of Earth Bombardment, with the talent skill Glass Cannon amplification, was unfathomably powerful.

The Poison Flower King, which normally had three phases, had its second phase completely wiped out by Monica’s triple bombardment.

Standing in the shadowy stink of the swamp, Lin Da felt as if the environment around him was illuminated, the air fresh. His Phoenix Tail Flower Team had taken initial shape.

Even if he didn’t lift a finger, just by using Healing Art, the Phoenix Tail Flower Team could easily clear the 23rd floor.

From his true line of sight, he could see Taige’s skills were frequent, with Explosive Punch, Flames Shovel, Agile Double Hit, and many others—numerous, yet each one’s damage not insignificant.

If not for his +27 Serpent Shadow Patterned Sword, his total damage might not have exceeded Taige’s.

Seeing the Poison Flower King lying still on the ground, feigning death, Lin Da raised an eyebrow and said to Anna, “It’s coming!”

“Mm-hm! Watch me!”

Anna was clad in thick silver armor, her left hand bearing a large shield, and her right hand wielding a red hatchet; each step she took plunged three inches deep into the mire.

“Shining Shield!”

The young girl raised her shield high, casting forth a glorious kaleidoscope of light!

The Poison Flower King on the ground stirred and suddenly lifted its bud, shooting out a white beam of light!

The beam struck Anna’s shield with a thud, and she was sent flying ten meters back.

But she promptly trudged back, unfazed. Taige was surprised to see that the Poison Flower King’s beam hadn’t even broken through Lin Da’s Verdant Shield.

The thickness of the shield was fixed, but its strength depended on the individual’s Defense Value.

Verdant Shield for someone like Anna, a top-tier Heavy Armored Warrior, could become a wall of despair for Magical Creatures.

“This is the strength of a Primordial main team member…” Taige felt shocked.

She was beginning to understand Lin Da.

With such monstrous teammates, who would need her and Mingli?

The beam shot by the Poison Flower King seemed effortlessly handled by Anna, but had it hit another Heavy Armored Warrior they might have needed quite a while to stand up again.

In contrast, the Poison Flower King’s body became increasingly shriveled; that beam had drained all its magic power.

Lin Da said, “Taige, go, finish it off with a Fire Series skill.”

“Huh? I want to use my fists.”

“Captain’s order, move quickly!”

“Uh, yes!”

Taige unleashed an Explosive Punch.

-47300!

The Poison Flower King twitched and then disintegrated into ashes.

A golden orb rose up.

At the same time, Lin Da received a system notification for the battle’s resolution.

[Killing the hidden boss, Poison Flower King +3 stars

Clearing within 30 minutes +3 stars

Less than ten members +1 star

Having a Fire Series member in the team and using a Fire Series skill for the finishing strike +3 stars

Clearance rating: Perfect Clear!

Buff gained: Rare item drop rate +100%, Gold Coin quantity +100%, Goddess’s Trial experience reward increased by 100%.]

With the buff from the Perfect Clear, the golden orb grew larger and larger, turning into what appeared to be a durian hanging in the air.

The durian split into eight parts, descending towards Lin Da and the others.

Lin Da felt a roar in his ears and a surge of warmth swept through his body!

[System notification: Experience Points +5.5 million! You’ve leveled up, 46 → 47!

Hit Points +1500, Strength +500, Magic Power +500, Defense +100, Magic Defense +130, Agility +55, Skill Points +1!]

Not long ago, Lin Da had cleared the 22nd floor of the dangerous forest, gaining 4.5 million Experience Points, and with the additional 5.5 million from the 23rd floor, he had just satisfied the conditions for leveling up.

The team members also showed happy expressions, each having their gains.

Lin Da quickly assessed the situation, and the current levels of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team members were as follows:

Both he and Kafni were at level 47, and Taige had also risen to level 47.

Mingli and Anna, Tasya at level 45.

Lulu and Monica, level 44.

In terms of average level, they had reached the ranks of seasoned Sunrise Level!

Lin Da’s mood soared.

Level 47 and level 46 seemed to differ by just one level, but they felt quite different. At level 46, Lin Da felt quite far from the Light Rank, but at 47, it seemed within arm’s reach, as if he could touch the threshold of the Light Rank.

He pondered, perhaps he could indeed become a Light Rank adventurer before entering the Ice Abyss.

One should note that among the new members at the Ice Abyss this year, aside from Volgan and Romanli, there were three “Mysterious Ten Stars.”

From previous deductions, some clues could be surmised.

Given the relationship between Evelyn and the Demons, it’s very likely they come from the largest Demon organization in Cangqing Province, the Dragon’s Rest Tomb!

Regardless of whatever these three suspected “Demons” are planning, caution is paramount.

“I’ve read in the Adventurer’s Weekly, among these three, the leader is a man known by the title ‘Scar’, whose strength has reached the Light Rank!

If I am targeted, it’s going to be troublesome!”

The probability was small, but Lin Da had no intention of waiting for that chance to become tearfully regretful.

A new idea began to take shape in his mind.

If it were possible, he would definitely be able to enter the Ice Abyss with the strength of a Light Rank.

“Boss, can I have that?”

His arm was tugged, and Lin Da snapped back to the present.

His plan would have to wait until the opening of Yavis Ancient City; dwelling upon it now was useless—time to take care of the spoils of battle.

The one tugging at his arm was Taige. The foolish tiger pointed at a fiery red jade bracelet, its mouth open wide and drooling, looking utterly silly.

“Eh, that deep purple glow looks quite profound…”

Lin Da exclaimed in surprise.

As everyone knows, the deeper the color, the rarer it is among items of the same quality.

Lin Da stepped forward to the little mountain of treasures and picked up the bracelet.

[Item: Angry Flower Bracelet]

[Type: Equipment – Jewelry]

[Quality: Epic Five-star]

[Level: 46]

[Attributes: Strength +4444, Fire Series skills damage +20%]

[Score: 5002]

[Description: A fiery red bracelet carved with flower patterns, radiating a remarkable Fire Series energy.]

No wonder Taige was drooling.

Lin Da nodded in approval—it added 4444 points to Strength and also provided a damage boost to Fire Series Skills, with a score just 500 points lower than the Serpent Shadow Patterned Sword in its initial state.

Aside from the inability to enhance, it truly qualified as an exquisite piece of Epic gear.

“Can I have it, boss?” Taige looked at him with eager eyes.
