[Current Instance: Fire Rat Nest]
[Difficulty: Hell Level Difficulty]
[Instance Description: This used to be an abandoned small magic crystal mine. The rats gathered here awakened the ability to control fire from years of absorbing magic crystal energy. They made it their nest, plundering and reproducing everywhere, causing great disaster to the surrounding humans.] [Main Quest 1: Clean Out the Fire Rat Nest.]
[Quest Description: Eliminate or drive away all the fire rats in the Fire Rat Nest.
The more you clear, the richer the rewards you will receive.]
[Main Quest 2: Rescue the Wandering Trader.]
[Quest Description: Yesterday, a wandering merchant was accidentally attacked by fire rats, and he is now hiding in a corner of the Fire Rat Nest. Find him and bring him out of the Fire Rat Nest.]
The introductions to the Fire Rat Nest and the two main quests rolling out after entering the dungeon appeared in everyone’s mind.
Cai Shen said with a mournful face, “I’ll go attract some monsters first to test their strength. You guys get ready.”
“No problem!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Cai Shen took two steps forward then suddenly started squawking loudly.
“Damn it! You scared me…
Startled by this strange cry, Zheng Cheng saw Cai Shen transforming.
His legs turned into claws, his body was covered in black and yellow feathers, his arms surprisingly became two large wings.
His torso and head also bent, turning into more pointed… rooster head?
In an instant, a rooster over one person tall appeared in front of everyone. Not just Zheng Cheng, but also Yao Zhixue, opened their eyes wide, staring at the rooster in front of them.
“Pffft… Hahaha…
Seeing Zheng Cheng and Yao Zhixue’s reactions, Chen Xiao and Zhang Ping’an couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“Brother Cheng, Yao Zhixue, is this the first time you’ve seen Cai Shen’s skill?
Hahaha…”
“Hehehe, we were also shocked the first time we saw his novice skill.
Zheng Cheng was speechless; it was indeed his first time seeing and hearing about a skill that could transform into a rooster.
And moreover.
It’s more than one person tall.
What the hell is this?
He wondered if Night’s Watch would recruit Cai Shen.
Transformed into a rooster, Cai Shen was furious. He leaped up and gave Chen Xiao a scratch with his claw.
His two large wings also came smashing down.
“Laugh! Laugh!”
“I am a poultry druid by profession, remember the rules – no laughing!”
“Ha…Ha…
Chen Xiao, trying to suppress his laughter, called out: “Okay, okay, Brother Ji, go attract the monster.”
“Call me Brother Shen!”
Cai Kun nevertheless stopped, grumbling and ambled towards the Fire Rat Nest.
He moved swiftly.
Only then did Chen Xiao come closer to explain, “Brother Cheng, don’t underestimate Brother Ji’s comical transformation. His compound strength is really quite formidable.”
“Oh? How so?”
Chen Xiao explained, “We’ve done tests. After Brother Ji transforms, both his strength and speed are enhanced.”
“The abilities of a standard rooster are inherited by him, being more than one person tall!”
“He’s fast, his claws are sharp, even his beak is exceptionally pointy and can pierce through five millimeters of steel!”
“Not only can he lure monsters, but he can also act as a semi-battle professional.”
“Plus, after becoming a rooster, his poison resistance increases by 10%, providing an innate suppression towards some insect monsters.” “There’s also the most important ability that you may not believe…”
Zheng Cheng seemed to catch on to something. Unable to hold back, Yao Zhixue asked, “What ability?”
Zheng Cheng gave the answer: “He can fly.”
Chen Xiao quickly nodded, “Exactly. After transforming into a rooster, Brother Ji can indeed fly.”
“We’ve done the test. When Brother Ji flaps his wings hard, he can fly to a height of forty or fifty meters, but can only maintain it for a dozen seconds.”
“However, if he was to fall from a height, he could glide for a dozen minutes with the help of his wings – so cool!”
“No wonder…”
Zheng Cheng suddenly realized, no wonder Cai Shen was so eager to go to the Nightmare Dungeon earlier.
After transforming into a turkey, his overall strength was comparable to average five-star or even six-star main battle Professionists.
The pity was that he couldn’t equip any gear.
Otherwise, the class of Cai Shen would be really powerful!
“Right.” Zheng Cheng suddenly said, “Have you guys ever thought of riding on
Cai Shen’s back? Wouldn’t that make us cavalry…”
“Holy shit…!”
Chen Xiao and Zhang Ping’an looked at each other, why hadn’t they thought of that before!
“Let’s try it next time!”
“After Brother Ji turns into a turkey, he becomes much stronger. If I could ride on him, that would make me a true earth knight!” “Hahaha, Brother Cheng, you’re really awesome…”
“Gobble gobble gobble-I!”
Suddenly, from the distant cave, Cai Shen’s gobbling sounds rang out again.
The sound was very rapid, carrying a hint of panic.
“The monsters are here!”
“Get ready!”
Chen Xiao shouted, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and a round shield appeared in his left hand.
In his right hand, a greatsword appeared.
Next to him, Zhang Ping’an also had a flash in his hand, and a large barrel appeared.
He tossed several herbs into it, mumbling incantations.
A green glow flickered, and the essences of herbs and plants slowly floated out under his control.
Yao Zhixue’s eyes flashed, her pupils instantly turned into a six-pointed snowflake, which was very mysterious.
Seeing this, Zheng Cheng also reached into the void and a long knife appeared in his hand.
Chen Xiao curiously asked, “Brother Cheng, why are you holding a knife, not a staff?”
“Staff doesn’t suit me, knife is pretty good.” Zheng Cheng shook his head,
“Where have you guys been these days, you have so many equipment?” Chen Xiao explained, “We didn’t earn them, we bought them on credit.” “On credit?”
“Yeah.” said Chen Xiao, “It’s a loan for new Professionists. Those who are at a
three-star level or below can only borrow a thousand gold coins. Four to six-star level can borrow three thousand gold coins.”
“Seven-star level and above can borrow at least ten thousand gold coins!” Zheng Cheng twitched his mouth, it turned out that loan sharks existed in every world…
“This knife of yours?”
“Oh? I bought it too.”
He had been working as a doctor in the Priest Guild these days, charging two thousand dollars for each treatment.
In seven days, he made almost two million in pure Chinese currency.
Although he also spent a lot of money on purchasing clarity potions, he still saved a lot.
Buying a blank long knife without any properties was more than enough.
“Gobble gobble gobble-I”
“Here it comes!”
From the entrance of the Fiery Mouse Nest, a turkey as tall as a person rushed out first.
Its wings were flapping wildly to increase its speed.
Its claws ran rapidly on the ground, it moved extremely fast, like a phantom.
Right behind it, a Fiery Mouse the size of a wild dog quickly came out, shrieking and running towards the group.
The giant mouse had fiery red fur, sharp teeth and claws, and blood-red pupils.
It looked extremely vicious.
“Shit shit shit!”
The turkey was running while gobbling, “This rat can spit fire, run fast!”
The feathers on his butt had been burned black!
“Squeak squeak squeak …4”
The Fiery Mouse shrieked, opened its mouth and spat out a fireball, burning
Cai Shen’s butt again.
“Gobble gobble gobble–!!
