Chapter 39 - Kobold Elder

"Hello, I bring greetings from Lady Carolina. She hopes that my friends and I can escort you back to Shadowglen." After the others completed their exploration missions, Luke walked forward and began to interact with Tap.

"Thank you, Captain Carolina, you are finally here, brave elf." The dying Tapu stood up as if he had regained his vitality when he saw Luke. He returned the greeting and said, "Your friends have brought new information about the mine. The Kobold Priest is coming from the teleportation array. Can you take your companions to eliminate them? I got a few skill books a few years ago, which I can give to you as rewards."

Skill book!

The eyes of several people, including Luke, lit up instantly.

Especially the other few people, who originally came here with the mentality of helping Luke complete the task. After coming here, not only did they complete a task that gained a lot of experience, but they also didn't expect to encounter the follow-up task that rewarded skill books.

There are novice players as well as very powerful professional players here. No matter who they are, it is the first time for them to encounter a task that rewards skills, which is truly unheard of.

Only people like Luke who have been reborn know that "Dawn" does not have a standard mission mode, and there is no chance that a mission with a certain difficulty level will be rewarded with a skill book. Sometimes a mission of killing a few monsters may reward skill books and skill points, and sometimes a mission that seems to be very difficult may not necessarily reward anything in this regard.

Skill points are the product of a system update next Monday. You can get one skill point for every two levels you level up. Other than that, you can only try your luck in quests and boss fights. You can upgrade your skills using skill points and gold coins.

When Luke was reborn, many skill point tasks became must-do items for all players, but for current players, they are completely unknown.

Of course, that was something to be considered next Monday. After Luke was stunned for a moment, he immediately said decisively: "As a member of the elves, we will defend the dignity of Lady Elune with our lives and will tear the dirty kobold priests to pieces."

"May the Moon Goddess be with us," Luke's lines were so great that Tapu was shaking with excitement. If the system had not set him to be seriously injured, he might have rushed into the kobold mine screaming.

The other people had never seen a player talking to an NPC like this before, and they were all stunned. After thinking about it carefully, they found that Luke's success really couldn't be explained by simple luck. He was playing the game with a very serious attitude.

"Let's go," Luke said without further ado and led his teammates into the mine again.

I arrived at the altar without any obstructions. After accepting the task, I found that the altar had changed a lot compared to before. In addition to the eight kobold mages surrounding it, there were four more kobold priests standing on the altar, all of them were level twelve.

"The mages share aggro. I'll stun one and kill one. Lixian will attack one. After the aggro is stabilized, he will attack my current target. Candace, well, you entangle one. Tel'abyssian and Moonlight can each handle two, right? It should be no problem." In this situation, there is no point in giving commands. The key is DPS and treatment.

"Can I do it?" The most nervous one was Sayu.

"Don't worry about the health of me and the two warriors, just take care of your brother and Candace. Let's get to work," Luke sneaked over and knocked a mage unconscious with a club, then turned around and used a sneak attack on another one next to him.

Others also chose their own targets and used their skills desperately.

March Rain, who seemed to be under the most pressure, found out that he was not under any pressure after the monsters were killed. Tel'abyssian and Moonlight were both wearing top-grade equipment with ridiculously high armor. When the kobold, who was three or four levels higher than them, attacked them, their health lines only dropped a little.

As for the two monsters that Luke was responsible for, one of them stood still after being hit by a club, and the other one was stunned from beginning to end after being attacked by him, and could not even lift his staff to fight back.

Under the attacks of Luke and Lixian, the monster quickly fell to its knees. After dealing with this, Luke first used Shadow Escape to escape from the battle and entered stealth state, then stun the guy who was originally stunned (he can be stunned repeatedly, but the stun time is reduced by one third each time). His next target was the monster that had lost half of its health by Moonlight.

As more and more monsters fell to the ground, the eight mages were killed without any splash. Although the four priests were of high level, their attack was not much higher than that of the mages. The only difficult thing about them was that they could heal me.

This was actually not a problem. The three guys in the team who could be considered experts saw the priest casting the healing spell and immediately used a stun skill to interrupt it.

Even if there were occasional fish that slipped through the net, it would not affect the overall situation. The four priests soon knelt on the ground one after another.

"The power of darkness is about to come, and you lowly reptiles will crawl at the feet of Lord Saron," leaving a reluctant line, and the last priest fell on the altar, blood gushing out.

"It's a pity that there is no equipment," Tel'abyssian kicked the corpse of the Kobold Mage at his feet regretfully.

"Not necessarily, maybe it's not over yet," Luke shook his head.

Although he had never done this task in his previous life, experience told him that this task could not be so simple.

"Are you talking about this blood?" The moonlight was equally sharp.

"The bleeding is indeed a bit more," others also noticed something strange.

All four priests were killed while standing on the altar without moving at all. Compared to the Kobold mages who were almost silent after death, their wounds did not stop bleeding after their death, and all the blood was poured onto the altar.

The runes on the altar gradually lit up.

"Fuck, can we really summon Saron? It sounds awesome," Tel'abyssian tightened the shield in his hand, a little nervous.

"Saron is one of the ancient gods, known as the Demon of a Thousand Maws. He is an evil that even the Titans cannot destroy. They can only divide it into countless parts and imprison it deep underground. It is not that easy to summon it out," Luke disagreed.

In the previous life, the final BOSS of the level 40 25-person dungeon was just a tentacle of Yogg-Saron.

The black light formed by the runes on the altar kept flickering, and finally gathered and froze into an old kobold - the kobold elder Allen.

"Why is there another dog-headed man?" Tel'abyssian had been expecting for a long time and was now very disappointed.

"Don't be careless, this is a BOSS," Luke suddenly remembered a game essay he had read in his previous life, which listed some information about the BOSSes that the author had fought, including the Kobold Elder Allen. The old Kobold had always left a fresh impression on the player with its shameless skill - Charm.

For players, Charm is a warlock's skill, and any hostile targets that are hit will wander around.

But charm is different for Allen. He can control players. If he controls a healing profession, he can let the player heal me to it. If he controls an attacking profession, he can let the players attack each other.

In addition to Allen, there is a BOSS in the level 15 public copy who also has this skill. When Luke fought this copy in his previous life, he was tortured to death.

When most people were at level 5 or 6, they unexpectedly encountered the level 10 BOSS Allen. Even Luke felt a little desperate.
