BXBX NOVEL Chapter 83 ALUCARD
Luo Yan was still swimming in the shadows of the dungeon boss. His Shadow Walk skill was now in level 12. Which meant that he could now use it continuously for 17 minutes before it needed to cool down. That was more than enough to kill off the dungeon boss. He rose from the shadow and then attack the dungeon boss from the back. When it was going to attack back, Luo Yan dived in once again in the shadows.
He repeated this sequence of action a couple more times. It was kind of boring, true. But it was a sure way to kill the monster much faster. With Luo Jin supporting at the back, they finally reached their desired outcome.
The dungeon boss froze in place, shrieked, and then slowly disintegrated.
A notification sound followed after that.
[Congratulations! Your party successfully raided the Infernal Chasm dungeon in Heroic mode. But three of your party members died before defeating the dungeon boss. Which meant the rewards would only go to the remaining two. You can now go and get it.]
The notification screen disappeared and a treasure box appeared in front of them. Luo Yan was already out of the shadows and Luo Jin already removed the Invisibility Cloak.
Luo Yan grinned when he read the notification. So the dungeon raid system still didn’t change. Those who died before finishing the raid wouldn’t receive any rewards. This was what Luo Yan was hoping for. He didn’t plan all that just for them to still get something at the end.
"Was that it? It’s over?" Luo Jin asked, walking towards the treasure.
"Yup. Once we took this treasure chest, we will be automatically thrown out of the dungeon. So, let’s go?" Luo Yan said.
"I guess we should."
Luo Yan picked up the treasure box and put it in his Items Tab. As soon as he did that, both he and Luo Jin were transferred out of there. They reappeared at the base of Mount Rage.
Luo Yan twirled around and faced Luo Jin. "Wasn’t that so much fun, Ah Jin?"
[For you, maybe. But for those three, I doubt it.] But looking at his second brother’s happy expression, he could only smile helplessly. He didn’t even care about the slightly black bellied nature that Luo Yan showed. That’s probably the effect of the rose-colored filter in his eyes. No matter what his brother did, it would always seem wonderful to him. Even if he acted scary.
"Yes, yes," he could only say.
"Let’s log out now. Let’s just check our rewards later after dinner," Luo Yan suggested while looking at the time on his Status Window.
Luo Jin just nodded and they both logged out.
They didn’t know that just a minute after they were gone, the three – Essaint, Bronzed Leaf, and Apricot – came back.
"Looks like they’re gone," Essaint said with a grim face.
"That f*cking son of a b*tch! I swear if I see them again, I’ll beat the shit out of them! Especially that little white face!" growled Bronzed Leaf, his face almost red in anger.
"You have to get in line. That sly fox. How could he use that face to deceive my poor heart?" Apricot complained. "Argh! I’ll definitely whip him!"
Suddenly, they heard a burst of laughter from above.
Bronzed Leaf turned sharply to the source of the sound. "Who’s there?!"
A figure suddenly jumped from the branch of a nearby tree. It was a tall and slender man clad in a black suit. His black hair was slickly swept back. His eyes the color of blood were full of amus.e.m.e.nt. He was swinging the cane he was holding back and forth.
Apricot’s eyes widened when he recognized the player in front of them. Of course, Essaint and Bronzed Leaf recognized him too.
"A-Alucard?" Apricot muttered unbelievably.
The player he called Alucard raised one of his brows. "Oh, you know me? Then this would be easy." He walked towards Essaint. "You seem to be the leader of this... flock. Then this is my advice, from one player to another. Do try not to mess with those two again."
"May I ask why?" asked Essaint.
Alucard smiled. Seeing that smile, Apricot felt like her heart would burst. It was different from the feeling she felt from Noctis. What she felt for the elf was a pure appreciation for someone with a beautiful face. But this one, it almost made her want to just strip him down n.a.k.e.d. Even Bronzed Leaf felt his heart beating faster than normal.
"Because I find that elf interesting. Surely you don’t want to go against me?" Alucard tapped Essaint’s shoulder with his cane. "You do understand, right?"
Essaint forced himself to smile. Going against Alucard meant going against the whole team Sanguis. The team he, Bronzed Leaf, and Apricot belonged to was not big enough to go against a powerhouse team like that. "I understand."
"Good."
Then Alucard walked out of there while whistling a playful song. He hadn’t walked that far yet when he received a private message.
Lilith: [Xu Ru, where did you ran off again?]
Alucard: [I didn’t ran off. I’m just taking a walk.]
Lilith: [Then finish your walk and go back to our headquarters. Or did you actually forget that our team have a meeting today?]
Alucard: [My princess, how could I forget? I’m going there as we speak now.]
Lilith: [Then go faster. And also, don’t call me ’princess’. You bloodsucking playboy.]
Alucard: [How could I not when you look like one?]
Lilith: [I’m done talking to you.]
Alucard: [Wait- I think I actually gained something from my long walk this time.]
Lilith: [???]
Lilith: [What do you mean?]
Alucard: [I’ll tell you later.]
Xu Ru – better known as Alucard in the game - suddenly remembered the white haired elf and he couldn’t help but laugh again.
He couldn’t help but follow then when the elf said that he knew that he was being ripped off by those three. So he wanted to know what he would do. Who would have thought that only he and that gnome he’s with would be the only one to leave the dungeon? When it was quite clear that the three they’re with had higher levels than them. Xu Ru really wanted to know what the elf did to outsmart those three.
Maybe he should invite him to his team the next time they met. He’d probably be a very good addition to team Sanguis.
