Carrying A Little Wolf Cub Through A Private Dungeon

 

 

 

[Hopeless Destiny]: Physical and Magical Defense+80% and Elemental Damage Reduction+80% (except for Darkness elemental damage).

[Pride of a Being of Light]: Being bound by the chains of Light from this Light Exposing Minimal Cave; this previously known as Captain is now vulnerable to Darkness type element damage in 80%.

Everything up to here it was understandable, after all, a hidden BOSS in a private dungeon was surely to be more than just a BOSS. However, the real surprise was the Unparalleled Angle skill that this hidden BOSS and Tongqiu shared!

But, Tongqiu didn't gave it much though, even if it was a coincidence it wasn't something impossible or unique.

Meanwhile, Little Zyv was already pouting in dissatisfaction at the possible few hundreds of damage that she would make for each hit, at most.

-396, MISS, MISS, MISS, MISS, MISS, MISS, -371, MISS, MISS, MISS, MISS, MISS, -389, MISS, MISS, MISS, -360, -413, MISS, MISS...

Zyv: "..."

She had used Endless Charge already, but the disparity of their levels and it being a hidden Lord grade BOSS made it hard for her to even hit it successfully, hence she 'tactfully' allowed Tongqiu to show off: "Big Brother, aiya, I feel so hungry and tired~. I'll take a little break here to eat, have fun~!!"

With that, she gracefully retreated all the way to the back where she could see Tongqiu about to land a hit on the Unpleasant Resenting Captain, Captain or Cap for short.

Clank~!

-4,308.

Using one move to test the waters, Tongqiu had the thought that this may be fun but just when he was about to fall back in retreat to position his body with the aim of entering into an evasive maneuvers stance, he felt the wind from his right be heavily pulled apart by a heavy yet small object, at least small considering the size of its holder.

Swish!-

The sound of such an object being evaded by Tongqiu by kicking his right foot on the round abruptly and without much strength while also letting his entire body lose balance with only his left leg remaining on the ground to support his body, his entire body ended up as a perfect horizontal line with only his left knee standing completely straight with Tongqiu's left thigh only bending a little.

That was the only way for Tongqiu to evade such an abrupt yet highly skilled normal basic attack. But that was not all, because as soon as Tongqiu successfully evaded such an attack, another came right after him from an impossible angle and at an impossible speed!

'Unparalleled Angle.' Tongqiu's thoughts weren't panicky nor surprised, he didn't underestimated this fat moving tank. It's just that, he was merely tasting the waters and didn't expect this bastard to use Unparalleled Angle right away, because it also didn't seemed as if it would only use it every now and then.

It already had great global Defense and resistance to CC effects simply because of being part of a private dungeon, it also had a rather incredible defense-focused passive skill and now, it was capable of using Unparalleled Angle whenever it pleased to.

A hidden BOSS really seemed better than those field BOSSes that he had dealt with before and possibly those that the majority of players do can deal with a large amount of raids, also working in great team work at the very least.

Seeing the incoming blade, Tongqiu didn't delve at all into what next move to make as he easily extended his right hand and parried the attack coming at him, the parry was more than perfect but it wasn't capable of altering the Captain's entire body for long as it only  stumbled backwards two steps.

"Hm." Subconsciously releasing a derisive snort in his throat with his mouth closed, Tongqiu then took a stance which seemed to make his body hunch while his two Light-Absorbing Flaming Gladiuses were instead lethally aiming with their sharpest edges of the blade to the left and right ribs of the large enemy.

Tongqiu could now discern the appearance of the Unpleasant Resenting Captain. First of all, all of the parts of its armor and shield were of the same color, hence, material. It was a typical shiny metallic color and though it seemed durable and heroic, it was mainly because of the thickness of itself rather than the quality of the material. Its sword was only slightly different as it had a lightly blue-metallic color with a typical silver color still being the dominant color on it. Only part of the Captain's lower head and neck were uncovered by the full plated armor, and going by Tongqiu's estimates, it was blackened by burns that could easily decide a mortal's life. He was very clear on what kind of burn those were, probably more than anyone, as not many people would survive them.

He did not know what kind of side effect a being of Light could have to take upon such a disgusting and deteriorated appearance. Even the handle of his big sized bastard sword was of a dried purple color that would dismantle itself by the touch of the softest of winds. But it wasn't new anyways, all of the rest of the 'poor' souls around here were all the same, tarnished and converted into this cave whoever owner's property for good.

The Captain also said no bullshit, probably couldn't even do so, as he brandished his sword on his right hand in a hacking motion towards Tongqiu.

Fwuuop! Pkan-Ling~!

As the familiar sound of its bastard sword came hacking down at him again, Tongqiu executed another parry but before it could even begin staggering back, the Captain used Unparalleled Angle to not only once again swing its sword at Tongqiu but to also stabilize its own body!

---

Author's Note: From now on, Pkan-Ling~ will be the sound of a parry lml.

---

'Fuck.' Cursing in his head but outwardly surprised with his eyes wide open, Tongqiu felt a newfound absurdness at his ever present and still ongoing negligence!

'Well, whatever, since it could be used like that then it can be used like that. I can do just the same!' In fact, as soon as the new basic attack from the big-sized bastard sword came at him once again, Tongqiu also used Unparalleled Angle to position his chest, shoulders and obviously arms to fend off this Captain's non-ending amount of attacks.

Clink! Clank, clank, clank, clooonk!! Pkan-Ling~... Clink! Clank! Clink! Clink! Clank!...

As such, what happened next to the one and only onlooker, Zyv, was the scene of Tongqiu and the Unpleasant Resenting Captain exchanging blows yet never injured the other. There were only sparks and sparks all over the place with them being the cause and effect, it was either blade making sparks when colliding towards the other's blade or that of a blade and a shield creating an even higher amount of sparks at the moment of collision.

The Captain tried to parry Tongqiu's attacks with his gladiuses only to be miserably put down into its place by Tongqiu's form and ways of attacks. Each and every expected parry becoming instead a heavy blow taken, yet, since it was completely blocked it did not cause it any damage as they would continue with their crazed exchange of blows over and over again.

At some point, Tongqiu finally cared not longer about taking in the experience of dealing with this little thing as he simply made use of both his gladiuses at the same time, no longer attacking slowly and one by one!

Pkan-Ling~! Clank, clank, clank!

-4,308, -4,308, MISS, MISS, -4,308.

Finally, Tongqiu had more window of opportunities as he heavily brandished his dual Light-Absorbing Flaming Gladiuses without holding in any of his previously gained experience in combating bitches that are fundamentally stronger than him in all places, except Movement Speed, awareness and nimbleness!

'Brr, brr?' Feeling hearsay come to light, Rosey murmured inside Tongqiu's head for a little before being coaxed into idleness once again by Tongqiu in response.

Since Tongqiu had not taken any hit to his virtual body, his HP was full and Lifesteal did not take meaningless effect.

But it wasn't that he has not received damage because the Captain was slow or predictable, which in Tongqiu's eyes he was like so even without the use of his Mental Power; it was indeed fast, just not that fast enough itself. Its only dependence on taking out players was to craftily and conveniently use Unparalleled Angle to either kill or protect itself, as it could even use it for its own shield that may or may not be able to protect him from any kind of ranged skill.

Captain's HP: [154,768/172,000].

With that lot of HP being taken down after just a single parry effect, Tongqiu was confident he could finish it off in another 9 such types of attacks. That is, of course, unless he either has a lot more of MISS attacks or less of them. Either way, Tongqiu also had 5 particles from his Cosmo Omega Shot and, if he wanted, he could use it to deal a scary amount of damage that ignored all types of Defenses. With a single Tongqiu's Rain Showdown and focusing it on one sole target with his Mental Power, he could deal 2,247,264 total damage.

Of course, that was if he could make it so that his Tongqiu's Rain Showdown take into consideration the skill that one wanted to use it alongside it. For now, he could only deal 247,199 to it with Tongqiu's Rain Showdown IF all of the attacks didn't MISS.

Tongqiu's Rain Showdown was now truly a skill to behold, it was only a lot of empowered attacks without Cosmo Omega Shot but when combining the two of them...

Pkan-Ling~, Clank, clank...

-4,308, -4,308, MISS, MISS, -4,308, -4,308, MISS, MISS, -4,308.

Captain's HP: [133,228/172,000].

There was no point in daydreaming what the future could bring forth, Tongqiu continued to wait for the Captain to be fully 'parried' that not even the use of Unparalleled Angle would be enough to save it from its predicament. Each time, Tongqiu became more and more skillful at the use of his much more heavier dual gladiuses.

Before, with the Sunfacing Brilliant Gladiuses, Tongqiu could easily perform a total of 16 total strikes with his swords in a mere second. Either by his two hands landing 8 blows each or one more than the other, 16 attacks were his limit. Attack/Action Speed were hella influencing in this, but his balanced 7 basic stats were the true reason of why he was able to accomplish such a feat. That, besides the fact that those pair of gladiuses were made for Tongqiu, in which the old man probably took consideration on Tongqiu's weak and feeble strength at the moment. Hence why the Sunfacing Brilliant Gladiuses, though could rival a LV30 Powerful weapon, were also pretty easy to handle -after a lot of practice and trial and error, of course-. If only that old man were to know the specifics of Tongqiu's newly acquired class at the time... But it was simply not possible, so it did not matter.

As of right now, he could only swing both his gladiuses for a total of 7 swings in two seconds, with him reaching a maximum of 8 if he were to stand still or simply do a mindless bout of multiple attacks with all his precision. In other words, with the use of Mental Power, which Tongqiu was unwilling to do unless he was facing a goddess like Rosey!

'Brr, brr!' As if sensing Tongqiu's new mood at finally really testing his new pair of dual gladiuses that he himself 'made' for himself, Rosey asked her big bro to whether or not help, being once again coaxed into obediently going back to doze off.

Pkan-Ling~! Clank, clank, clink!...

-4,308, MISS, MISS, -4,308, MISS, -10,683, MISS, MISS, MISS...

Captain's HP: [113,929/172,000].

. . .

 

*PING*...you've successfully killed a LV60 Lord grade BOSS 'Unpleasant Resenting Captain', as a reward, SP+600 and Fame+600.

*PING*...your party member 'Zyv' has levelled up to LV41.

"Wohooo! I knew Big Brother was so handsome and powerful!" With her arms spread open and aiming towards the ceiling in a 'V' form, Zyv cheered from the back at the notice of successfully levelling up thanks to her big brother, she didn't forget to call him handsome so that he'd forget of her laziness.

"Mhm, let's go. I want to see what other BOSSes there are. Look, I think these are something you can use..." Tongqiu called out to her to move fast, they were still criminals in a foreign Region and their time on this private dungeon might as well be strictly limited. Though he didn't really know of that but, it was best to be safer than sorry.

As he called out to her, Tongqiu also passed her a pair of little leather shoes that though humble, also looked small, delicate and cute. Just like her.

[Captain's Treasured Memory]: Type: Shoe Garment, Grade: Magical, Equipment Requirements: LV50+, 112 STR, 75 DEX and 20 DET. Attributes: Movement Speed+3%, DEX+67, DET+22 and LCK+17, Effects: Grants Movement Speed+20% when total HP is at 30% or less and creates a small shield for 15 seconds that will absorb 80% of the damage received from the next attack. The shoes of a long gone young lady who had grieved for her father's disappearance through her entire life, instead of granting any Defense stat, it increases the mobility of its wearer.

"Woaah, hm... Hehe, give me, give me!"

With only dedicating the information of the shoes a little moment of silence, Zyv then became increasingly excited at having her first Magical grade item.

'So amazing! It must be crazy to be so lucky with only 8 points in Luck, wahaa, I'll tell my Sister all about it!'

While Zyv was getting all excited in a silly manner, Tongqiu looked at her with somewhat curious eyes. He pondered for a little before asking her as he picked up the items the BOSS dropped: "Hey, Little Zyv. What kind of weapon do you use? I only see you use your hands. I know your Howling Royal Wolf gives any of your attacks a lot of your Physical Power but, wouldn't it be better to have a weapon for that?"

Zyv was nodding and calmly listening to his silly big brother wolfy, when she suddenly formed a strange expression on her face before embarrassingly answering him: "Mhm, it's just that... I don't like any weapon. I tried some boxing gloves but, naaah! I'd rather... rather have, claws?"

Her voice becoming more and more tiny, Zyv lowered her head to pretend she wasn't blushing, not at all.

Tongqiu didn't push her as he silently though in his head after patting her shoulder, then head and leading the way towards the end of the stony passage: 'Claws, eh? Diana likes close-combat while this little immortal likes claw-like weapons, okay then.'

Forming unnecessary, cute similarities between to people who do not known each other nor even have seen each other, Tongqiu arrived at the next half of the Light Exposing Minimal Cave.

The rest of the private dungeon was pretty simple; the first half of it had lots of mobs and immense rooms in which hundreds upon hundreds of enemies of one kind would reside, possibly even reaching a higher number than ten thousand with the Brightless Molten Slugs. While a moderate amount for the rest of the mobs.

In any way, Tongqiu's Experience bar was filled up to 60,1% and was now inching closer not only to LV50 but also to his first advancement. Once again, if he had any, as he didn't even know how to start it in the first place.

If anything, Tongqiu hoped he would once again see Katia, he missed her truly a lot.

As for the second part of the Light Exposing Minimal Cave, it also had large amounts of Brightless Molten Slugs but not in a rather absurd manner like in the first half. This time, there were also 3 'side' BOSSes while the final BOSS would remain seated in his own chambers, for some reason.

The other three Lord grade BOSSes would roam through the private dungeon's second half in a passive manner, not attacking mobs nor players and possibly not even NPCs. They, however, dropped lots of good and necessary materials for Tongqiu which he took inside his Master's Bag without a thought.

There was another surprise however, a hidden Lord grade BOSS appeared in the middle of the entirety of the second half right after he killed the third side BOSS. Though in reality it took three solid minutes for it to trigger, the hidden BOSS indeed appeared.

It was a female figure, yet ghostly and creepy which had its body enlarged a bit too scarily fucking much, while its skin was totally pale and even seemed similar to the fur of the Corrupted Flying Badger at least in color and Light element. Had medusa-like messy hairstyle and couldn't close either 'her' mouth and eyes, always having them opened and not by just a little. It had no nose nor ears and its eyes' iris and pupils were diminute in comparison with its eyeballs which seemed capable of falling off at any moment.

It was just truly terrific, yet Tongqiu only had a couple of seconds of terror before he recuperated. While Zyv didn't  even felt a slight tremor, only disgust and awkwardness, Rosey... Well Rosey was Rosey.

[Tricked Foolish Woman]: Type: Monster(Human), Grade: Lord, Level: 60, HP: 167,000. A mercenary, a bandit or even a lurking enemy from another Region. Whichever the reason 'she' once had, her current state is that of a mere slave to the Light Exposing Minimal Cave, forever contracted to become its perpetual slave guardian.

Skills: Contracted, Creepy Advancement and Terrifying Gaze.

[Contracted]: Because of the contract with the Light Exposing Minimal Cave, this being not only has a body protected and nurtured by Light, granting it vulnerability towards Darkness element in 80%, but it is also magnified in Movement Speed+35% and Attack/Action Speed+15% while decreasing Physical and Magical Defense in 50% and not being able to block any attack nor skill. Also susceptible to CC.

[Creepy Advancement]: As the Tricked Foolish Woman takes large strolls with all of its members, including its head and neck, it gains Dodge Rate+50% and increases its current Movement Speed+100%.

[Terrifying Gaze]: Closes in its head towards the target, allowing them full view of its image and granting them the first mind-related negative altered effect that comes to the target's mind at seeing its terrifying face, it also gains Damage Taken+50% from any source of damage and current Movement Speed decreases in 80%.

It was definitely no longer a too difficult of a BOSS fight like it was with the Unpleasant Resenting Captain; as it was a much fast paced one where a victor would be decided in a few moves thanks to Tongqiu's quick and powerful attacks as well as the fact that this hidden BOSS didn't had a skill that would enhance each of its attacks. It also had much less defense in general as well as having another useless skill against him, inflicting mind-related CC effects!

The only thing, however, was that its 2 meters long and almost 3 meters wide horrifying face was truly a sight to behold. Making him go awkward for the first second in which he would always have to endure an extra, unnecessary hit so as to make a good show for Zyv as if 'trying to look like a fallen hero', in hopes she'd forget he fucked up.

But every damn time, he heard her giggle as he tried his best to no avail. At the end of the fight, the Tricked Foolish Woman dropped stuff that would really help Zyv in the future that was distant but no by too much.
