Chapter 243: Chapter 200 Fellow Tomb Raiders_3

[Do you want to initiate an attack on the opponent immediately?]

"No."

Normally, he should strike first at this point. However, noticing that the other party has already infiltrated the Elf Clan, he decided to wait and observe the opponent’s next move.

As expected, the other party was the first to initiate an attack after a few seconds.

[Your restraint has led to the elf player attacking first. He sneak-attacked you with a tangling spell. Will you retaliate immediately, to show him who’s boss?]

Mu You ignored the text and resolutely rewound time with his pocket watch.

He then quickly activated the ’Image Crystal’ on his panel.

[You have activated the Image Crystal. The crystal will automatically record everything happening around you.]

[The elf player is first to strike again, ruthlessly slamming you with spells.]

[Your HP is rapidly decreasing. Do you want to strike back?]

"No."

[You entertained other thoughts. Therefore, you neither counterattacked nor resisted, and let the Elf player drain your HP.]

[You were killed by the elf player (Level 13). Life span-1, experience-10, remaining life span 939 years.]

[A teleportation mark you’ve bound has been detected. Do you want to resurrect at the teleport point?]

"No."

[You refused teleportation and revived at the entrance of a tunnel not far from the tomb. It seems that the elf player is not satisfied yet, and he is charging at you again. Will you choose to counterattack, or continue to run away?]

"Counterattack!"

Before his counterattack, Mu You was in a hurry to deactivate the Image Crystal from his panel.

With the evidence in hand, he has no reason to hold back anymore. Since the opponent struck first, he was merely in self-defense.

[You cast ’Strong Wind Blowing’, deflecting the elf player’s attack and blowing him to the ground. You fired a ’Small Fireball’, "Snowball Curse", "Blaze Fire Circle", "Arcane Missile", "Nether Fire"... at the elf player.]

[You called for the ’Shadow War Eagle’, ’Fire Giant’, ’Troll Priest’ and ’Troll Warrior’...]

[You used ’Unceasing spell’ on yourself...]

[With the help of your summoned creatures, you have successfully killed the elf player (Grey Pupil). Life span+1, Experience+13.]

[You see the elf player resurrecting at a nearby junction and rushing towards you again.]

[You choose to confront him once more...]

[You have killed the elf player (Grey Pupil) again. Life span+1, Experience+13.]

[After reviving, the elf player is still rushing at you out of disbelief. You still choose to confront him...]

[You have killed the elf player (Grey Pupil) for the third time. Life span+1, Experience+13.]

...

Next, Mu You began to continuously kill the elf player.

After being slain three times in a row, the player finally did not dare to attack anymore. He started to run away after revival, but his low agility value cannot possibly help him escape easily from Mu You.

Mu You caught up decisively and killed him again.

After dying four consecutive times, it seemed like the elf player finally realized something. This time, he did not dare to revive near Mu You. He disappeared entirely, likely having used the teleportation mark to return to the resurrection point.

After driving away this opportunistic player, Mu You finally has the peace to raid the tomb.

[You returned to the front of the Tomb of the Troll War God, used the Earth Penetrating Technique, and riddled into the ground.]

[After a bit of descent, you quickly entered a hollowed-out cave. You saw remnants of skeleton bones at your feet. Obviously, this is where the Troll War God was buried.]

[The skeletal remains of the Troll War God have been drained empty. You only see scattered rotten cloth and many pieces of animal bones.]

[You searched around the nearby soil layers for a while, but found nothing...]

[You have searched the nearby soil layers for a week and found nothing...]

...

After two failed attempts at searching, Mu You lost his patience, directly opened the Pumpkin Lantern, and threw a handful of dust in.

[The Pumpkin Lantern burns fiercely, the bright light penetrates the soil barrier and reveals a glimmer of gold hidden beneath the soil ahead!]

[You rush forward to search, pushing away the soil there, you discover a red axe beneath the soil.]

[You obtained a legendary item, Berserker’s Howl.]

[Berserker’s Howl: The weapon wielded by Troll War God Aroman in his lifetime. This axe was born for Berserkers, possessing the ability to absorb vitality and help allies to convert vitality.

Strength +20, Constitution +30, immunity to disarm.

Abilities:

Show of Fury: When activated, it transforms 100% of damage inflicted with each attack into HP for ten seconds. Cooldown time 30 seconds.

Vitality Aura: Toggleable. When activated, each attack by allied units within a thousand meters will convert 25% of the damage into HP.]

"Indeed a legendary item!"

An eager gleam appeared in Mu You’s eyes. He looked at the effects closely. This axe was undoubtedly dedicated to Berserkers, apart from the high bonuses to strength and constitution, both abilities involved life-stealing.

Show of Fury, once activated, gives 100% life-steal for ten seconds. It synergizes with the Berserker’s terrifying burst capabilities when at low HP, and it can basically recover full HP within a few seconds.

However, if it only had this ability, it wouldn’t be worthy of being a legendary item. The second ability, the Group Life-Steal Aura, which covers dimensions up to a thousand meters, truly elevates this weapon.

Without a doubt, this weapon was born for the battlefield. Only when the Aura is activated on a battlefield crowded with thousands of people, can it exhibit its full prowess.

However, this weapon probably isn’t as useful for an individual....

Mu You took the axe out for a closer look. The scarlet axe, a meter and a half in length with a blade almost half a meter wide, bore a pattern of a skull on the top. It felt extremely heavy in his hand.

He swung the axe a few times and quickly shook his head. Despite the weapon being strong, he wasn’t used to such heavy weaponry, and it didn’t match his mage fighting style. When he needed to engage in close combat, he could use the Vampire Claws.

This axe would be more suitable for the Troll War God to use.

After storing the axe away, Mu You returned to the game.

He searched around the crypt once more. After confirming there was nothing else, he then directed his character to leave the crypt, meeting up with the Elf Army again for the continued Troll extermination in the cave.

Aside from acquiring the legendary weapon, his main objective for this trip was to find more high-level Troll Tombs. If possible, he wanted to absorb a few tombs before the Elves destroyed them.

Unfortunately, the high-level tombs were obviously the primary targets for the Elves who would directly excavate the crypts and scatter the bones inside upon coming across them.

Moreover, Mu You wasted quite a bit of time in the Troll War God’s crypt. Until the entire cave had been completely cleared out, he wasn’t able to come across a single, intact, high-level tomb.

While this was slightly disappointing, it was okay. Having been able to so effortlessly obtain a legendary item this time was lucky enough, as he did not expect more.

Soon after, once the Troll extermination campaign was over, a reward prompt popped up in the game.

[You’ve helped the Elf Clan complete the ’Exterminate Trolls’ task. You have acquired 2000 points of Forest Elf Prestige and one Forest Guardian Seed.]

[Your prestige level within the Forest Elves has reached ’Revered’, unlocking more privileges.]

The mission rewarded 2000 prestige points all at once, raising his prestige level by one. In addition, he got a seed.

[Forest Guardian Seed: Once planted, it can grow into a Guardian Treeman. The Guardian Treeman can form a magical stone with its arms, which can be tossed to strike distant and airborne enemies, causing high area damage.]

A Treeman that can launch ranged attacks. Judging by the description, its attacking ability must be very powerful. The drawback is that it cannot move and can only attack from where it was planted, essentially a fixed turret.

"This thing can be planted on the Ghost Ship..."

Mu You quickly thought of a use for this Treeman. A turret that can endlessly auto-amass ammunition for use as a ship cannon couldn’t be more fitting.

[The Ranger Team Capitan is passing by with his men. Would you like to start a conversation?]

A prompt popped up in the game.

Without taking the time to examine the reward closely, Mu You hastily selected ’yes’ and approached the Ranger Captain to give him the filmed crystal.

He didn’t know what the grey pupil was up to, but he had managed to infiltrate the Ranger Troop. To preempt any potential mischief by pretending to be an internal member of the Elf Clan, Mu You decided to report him first.
