111: Chapter 111 New Skill: Curse of Corruption
Five minutes later, Tang Mo had already appeared in the school's dungeon room.
Waiting for others was never Tang Mo's style; he would rather spend that time running a dungeon.
The Ten Thousand Snake Cave dungeon was a Level 30 dungeon with a minimum level requirement of 25.
The level was a bit low, but as long as one could break the existing dungeon clearance record, they could earn credits.
Credits could not only be exchanged for various items at the school, but they were also indispensable for every student's graduation.
Tang Mo had checked; the record for the Ten Thousand Snake Cave purgatory difficulty dungeon was 8 minutes and 43 seconds.
The record holders were a five-person team from Qiujin Academy, led by Bu Junliang, a Level 144 Professional, with the lowest level in the team being 143βtruly a high-intensity squad.
If even teams over Level 100 came to compete for dungeon records, Tang Mo had even less reason not to come.
After scanning his student badge and having his identity information recorded by the dungeon, he could select the dungeon difficulty.
γ You have selected purgatory difficulty dungeon. Please confirm if you wish to enter? γ
"Confirm!"
As soon as he spoke, the scene before Tang Mo's eyes suddenly changed, and he arrived inside the Ten Thousand Snake Cave dungeon.
Countless sharp stalactites hung from the wide, gloomy karst cave, and the air was filled with a foul, fishy stench.
Under the dim light, dozens of massive snake-like monsters rapidly charged toward Tang Mo.
γ Fire-Blood Python (Elite Monster) γ

γ Strength: 25200 γ
γ Agility: 19830 γ

"Realm of Death!"
In an instant, dozens of giant skeletons appeared in the karst cave, grabbing the poisonous pythons that wanted to attack Tang Mo.
The Highly Poisonous Skeletons struck with their blades, and dozens of poisonous pythons were immediately cut in two.
After the pythons' bodies fell to the ground and writhed a few times, they stopped moving.
γ Killed Level 25 Fire-Blood Python, EXP +19423, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +1, Spirit +1 γ
γ Obtained Blood Python Crystal *2 γ
γ Killed Level 25 Crimson Poison Python, EXP +18678, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +1, Spirit +1 γ
γ Obtained Crimson Blood Crystal *2 γ
...
Tang Mo unhurriedly stepped forward to collect all these materials.
Since it was his first time in this dungeon, Tang Mo decided to play it safe first; at the very least, he needed to figure out the monsters' attributes and skills before charging toward the record.
Under Tang Mo's command, more than thirty Highly Poisonous Skeletons marched imposingly toward the next location.
The karst cave was incredibly wide; the Highly Poisonous Skeletons were just barely tall enough to touch the ceiling, but they had no trouble walking while standing upright.
Tang Mo soon arrived at the next scene of the Ten Thousand Snake Cave.
The imposing team quickly drew the attention of the dungeon monsters, and dozens of colorful, diverse poisonous pythons immediately attacked the Highly Poisonous Skeletons.
γ Yellow-Bellied Snake (Elite Monster) γ
γ Level: 26 γ
γ Strength: 29890 γ
γ Agility: 21850 γ
γ Spirit: 20730 γ
γ Stamina: 305400 γ
γ Skills: Bite (Lv26), Blood-Dissolving Toxin (Lv26), Death Wrap (Lv26), Agility (Lv26), Size Enlargement (Lv26), Swift Strike (Lv26) γ
γ White Snake (Elite Monster) γ
γ Level: 26 γ
γ Strength: 30890 γ
γ Agility: 24870 γ
γ Spirit: 21760 γ
γ Stamina: 295700 γ
γ Skills: Bite (Lv25), Decay Toxin (Lv25), Death Wrap (Lv25), Agility (Lv25), Size Reduction (Lv25), Swift Strike (Lv25) γ
The monsters' levels had slightly increased, but they were no match for the Highly Poisonous Skeletons.
After quickly clearing them out, Tang Mo continued to walk deeper inside.
...
Along the way, the monsters' levels were gradually increasing, but it was only a slight increase in attributesβthere was nothing that could pose a threat to Tang Mo!
Moreover, these low-level dungeon monsters could withstand even less of the Highly Poisonous Skeletons' damage.
After all, the Highly Poisonous Skeletons' total attributes had already reached over 90,000, and the damage they dealt was calculated directly based on Tang Mo's Poison Damage.
He didn't know how long he had been walking, but when there was no longer any light in the karst cave, Tang Mo had to take out a lighting device he had prepared earlier to scout the way.
The moment the light turned on, a snake covered in white spots, roughly the same size as a Highly Poisonous Skeleton, stood upright and stared at the Highly Poisonous Skeletons.
γ Spotted Cobra King (Elite BOSS) γ
γ Level: 29 γ
γ Strength: 55820 γ
γ Agility: 49890 γ
γ Spirit: 49550 γ
γ Stamina: 1335900 γ
γ Skills: Belly of the Giant Snake (Lv29), Poisonous Fangs (Lv29), Corrosive Venom (Lv29), Intimidation (Lv29), Curse of Corrosion (Lv29), Swift Strike (Lv25) γ
The sudden appearance of the giant snake king startled Tang Mo, but he realized that anything further ahead must be the dungeon BOSS.
Tang Mo gave the Highly Poisonous Skeletons an order: end the battle quickly.
More than thirty Highly Poisonous Skeletons charged directly toward the Spotted Cobra King.
Although they were similar in size, the attributes were vastly different, and the thirty-plus Highly Poisonous Skeletons pinned the Spotted Cobra King to the ground and ruthlessly pummeled it.
γ Killed Level 29 Spotted Cobra King, EXP +20134, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +1, Spirit +1 γ
γ Obtained Gold-tier Poisonous Staff, Spirit +3410, Skill Damage +20%, Casting adds 80% * Spirit as Poison Damage, Equipment requirement: Level 30. γ
γ Ding, Source Poison successfully plundered, obtained additional skill Curse of Corrosion. γ
γ Curse of Corrosion (Lv2): Casts a curse on targets within line of sight, reducing the target's defense by 2%. γ
"It's here! It's actually here!"
Tang Mo was overjoyed; this was the first time Source Poison had successfully plundered a skill, and it was even a legendary-tier skill.
It ignored the target's level and strength; as long as Curse of Corrosion was cast on them, it could reduce the target's defense by 2%.
More importantly, plundered skills did not occupy the Professional's own skill slots; wasn't this like getting something for free?
Moreover, this was a legendary-tier skill, and as its level increased, its effectiveness would also significantly improveβa guaranteed win.
