Catastrophic Necromancer TL

Chapter 67: Forget the Buffs, Hurry and Follow

Jiang Taotao looked at Lin Moyu, then at Ling Zhen.

She despised Ling Zhen's behavior.

But without a damage dealer, clearing the Nightmare dungeon would be nearly impossible.

The trial would be impossible to complete.

Now all the teams were looking for mages, so Ling Zhen was in high demand.

That's why Ling Zhen chose this moment to make trouble.

Putting Jiang Taotao in a difficult position.

Without Lin Moyu, the team's average level would be too high.

But finding a lower level player wasn't hard, at least easier than finding a mage.

Ning Yiyi wanted to say something, but Lin Moyu gently held her back, signaling her not to speak.

He knew what Ning Yiyi wanted to say.

If he was asked to leave the team, Ning Yiyi would definitely leave too.

Lin Moyu didn't say anything, just watching quietly.

Now it was up to Jiang Taotao to choose.

After an internal struggle, Jiang Taotao made her decision.

She looked at Ling Zhen, "Ling Zhen, you leave the team."

Ling Zhen was confident at this point, sure Jiang Taotao would choose him.

Unexpectedly, this was her answer.

"What?" He thought he misheard, "Captain, if I leave, your trial is ruined."

"Don't you want to enter Creation God Academy anymore?"

Jiang Taotao said solemnly, "I do, but you forgot my career."

Jiang Taotao's career was Elven Knight.

Knights had their own code of honor.

Everyone here owed thanks to Lin Moyu for getting them this far.

She couldn't bring herself to ask Lin Moyu to leave now.

Ling Zhen sneered, "If that's how it is, don't regret it."

He left the team.

Mages were in short supply everywhere, so finding another team wouldn't be hard for him.

Lin Moyu slowly stood up, "Let's enter the dungeon."

Huh?

Jiang Taotao was stunned.

Lin Moyu knew the current situation.

Both sides were at a stalemate, neither able to approach the dungeon.

As Lin Moyu stood, Ning Yiyi also got up.

Ning Yiyi giggled, "Sister Tao, let's enter the dungeon."

Jiang Taotao asked, "How?"

Lin Moyu was already walking towards the dungeon, "Follow me."

Ning Yiyi bounced after him happily.

She seemed to have blind faith in Lin Moyu.

If Lin Moyu said they could enter the dungeon, then they definitely could.

Duan Gao and Miao Yu hesitated, unsure what to do.

Jiang Taotao thought, worst case they could retreat.

With her there, at least there wouldn't be any danger.

The other side probably wouldn't dare kill anyone.

"Let's go."

As the team leader, her words carried weight.

Duan Gao and Miao Yu followed along.

Jiang Taotao stepped in front of Lin Moyu, gripping her shield tightly.

She was clearly nervous.

The five suddenly approaching the dungeon immediately provoked a reaction from the Cherry Blossom Country people.

"Get back, don't approach the dungeon!"

"Divine Summer people, get lost!"

The Cherry Blossom Country people shouted, nocking arrows and raising staffs.

If they dared approach the dungeon, they would face heavy attacks.

Lin Moyu ignored them, continuing towards the dungeon.

Jiang Taotao's heart was in her throat.

Duan Gao and Miao Yu were also very nervous.

Only Ning Yiyi was carefree, "Don't worry, it'll be fine!"

"Brother, what are you doing?"

"Come back, it's dangerous!"

"Let's go too, protect our brother!"

They all recognized Lin Moyu. If not for his skeletons earlier, they wouldn't have made it here.

Though they didn't know what Lin Moyu planned, most chose to protect him.

Ling Zhen sneered, "Idiot, going to die?"

Seeing Lin Moyu ignore their warnings, the Cherry Blossom Country people unleashed their skills.

Arrows, spells, and various attacks rained down.

Jiang Taotao immediately raised her shield.

Lin Moyu pointed forward.

Whoosh!

Twenty skeleton warriors appeared beside him.

The twenty skeletons formed a shield, firmly protecting the five and blocking all attacks.

Jiang Taotao was stunned.

Everyone was shocked.

"Wow, so many!"

"How can there be so many? What career is this?"

"These skeletons are so tough, they don't even flinch from attacks."

"They look fragile, how are they so sturdy?"

The skeletons didn't budge despite the Cherry Blossom Country's attacks.

"Enter the dungeon, Nightmare difficulty," Lin Moyu said calmly, ignoring the various attacks.

Jiang Taotao was infected by Lin Moyu's composure.

She instinctively chose to trust him.

Following Lin Moyu's words, she selected the dungeon.

The five disappeared at the dungeon entrance, along with the skeleton warriors.

"They went in."

"Five people entered the dungeon."

"Should be Nightmare difficulty, right?"

"Of course, what's the use of Normal difficulty? Definitely Nightmare."

"Wonder if they can do it."

"Whether they can or not, we can't let those Cherry Blossom Country trash enter the dungeon."

"Right, don't let those Cherry Blossom Country trash in."

After Lin Moyu entered, the two sides outside resumed their standoff.

Neither side could enter the dungeon.

Inside the Mermaid dungeon, Jiang Taotao finally relaxed, "We really made it in."

Ning Yiyi giggled, "I told you, just trust Lin Moyu. No need to worry."

Jiang Taotao said, "But even though we're in, we have no damage dealer. How can we clear the dungeon?"

Though Ning Yiyi was an assassin class, she was only level 19, not enough damage output.

As a knight focused on protection, Jiang Taotao's damage was also lacking.

They could handle Normal difficulty, but Nightmare would be very very difficult.

Ning Yiyi said, "Don't worry, we have Moyu."

Him?

"But he's only level 17."

Ning Yiyi smiled, "His skeletons are very powerful."

They were indeed powerful, at least very tough and fast.

At this point, they could only trust Ning Yiyi's words.

Jiang Taotao said, "Alright then, let's hope the skeletons' damage is enough. I'll try my best to tank the monsters. Miao Yu, heal me promptly and control the battlefield."

Miao Yu patted her chest, "Don't worry, Sister Tao."

Duan Gao started applying buffs, but Lin Moyu was already walking forward.

Since the skeletons couldn't receive buffs anyway, no point wasting time.

Monsters soon appeared ahead.

A mermaid over 2 meters tall appeared on the path.

Detection flew out.

[Mermaid Elite Warrior (Enhanced Elite Monster)]

[Level: 21]

[Strength: 2000]

[Agility: 1200]

[Spirit: 800]

[Constitution: 2200]

[Skill: Screech]

With a thought, the skeleton warriors swarmed forward.

The ones in front simultaneously used Berserk Strike.

Bang bang bang!

The Mermaid Elite Warrior fell with a miserable cry.

[Killed Level 21 Mermaid Elite Warrior, Experience +10000]

[Obtained Fish Skin x10]

Duan Gao was still applying buffs when the sudden notification startled him.

What just happened?

How did they suddenly gain experience?

Jiang Taotao also stared wide-eyed, looking at Lin Moyu in disbelief.

This was a Nightmare dungeon monster, an enhanced elite monster!

Even with a perfect team composition, it should take 1-2 minutes to kill.

But what just happened? A few skeletons charged in, then bang bang bang.

The monster died, nearly instantly killed.

Lin Moyu's skeletons weren't just tough and fast, their attack power was terrifyingly high.

"It's already dead?"

"That was practically an instant kill."

Jiang Taotao muttered, still not fully processing what happened.

Ning Yiyi acted like it was natural, "I told you, Moyu's skeletons are amazing."

She quickly followed after Lin Moyu.

Duan Gao called out, "Wait, I haven't finished buffing!"

"Forget the buffs, hurry and follow!" Jiang Taotao shouted, quickly chasing after them.
