33: Chapter 33 Elite Boss, Cerberus

Tu Xiaoxia turned around and happened to lock eyes with Tang Mo.

Her thin brows furrowed, and she was about to step forward to cause trouble for Tang Mo.

Seeing her aggressive approach, Tang Mo knew nothing good would come of it and quickly walked toward the dungeon.

"Enter the purgatory difficulty dungeon?"

"Yes!"

Tang Mo's figure flashed, and he disappeared on the spot.

Leaving behind a shocked and anxious Tu Xiaoxia, staring at the spot where Tang Mo had just vanished.

"He... did he just enter the dungeon alone?"

"That idiot, does he still think this is a novice dungeon?"

"Running in so recklessly by himself, he's going to die!!"

As she spoke, two streaks of crystal-clear tears flowed from the corners of Tu Xiaoxia's eyes.

Meanwhile, Tang Mo had already arrived inside the dungeon.

Graves were everywhere as far as the eye could see.

Broken tombstones lay scattered on the ground, and white bones could even be seen beneath the thin layer of soil.

Kacha kacha~ Kacha kacha~

The sound of bones grinding against each other rang out, making one's teeth ache just hearing it.

Then, dozens of skeletons suddenly crawled out from underground.

A ghastly white light shimmered on their bodies, and the Soul Fire, symbolizing life, flickered within their skulls, looking hideous and terrifying.

Tang Mo wasn't idle either, focusing intently on observing their information.

[Skeleton Soldier (Elite Monster)]

[Level: 15]

[Strength: 6,200]

[Agility: 2,830]

[Spirit: 1,720]

[Stamina: 33,000]

[Skills: Heavy Strike (Lv15), Berserk (Lv15), Charge (Lv15), Bone Reconstruction (Passive)]

"Looking at these attributes, they seem a bit stronger than the Shrimp Soldiers of the Great Ocean Dragon Palace."

While speaking, Tang Mo had already expanded his Poison Barrier.

Inside the dungeon, he didn't have to worry about accidentally hurting others, so Tang Mo simply expanded the range of the Poison Barrier to its maximum.

An area with a diameter of over two hundred meters was instantly filled with the dark green Poison Barrier.

The Soul Fire inside the Skeleton Soldiers' skulls was thus directly exposed to the Poison Barrier without any protection.

"1, 2..."

As Tang Mo silently counted to two, the swarms of Skeleton Soldiers collapsed to the ground in unison once again.

[Killed Level 15 Skeleton Soldier, EXP +3,410, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +0.01]

...

[Obtained Leg Bone *7]

[Obtained Skull *9]

A series of notification sounds echoed in Tang Mo's mind once more.

Looking at the Skeleton Soldiers on the ground that had completely crumbled into bone fragments, Tang Mo couldn't help but remark:

"It's good to have no flesh; you can sleep as soon as you fall down."

After dealing with all the Skeleton Soldiers, Tang Mo continued to head deeper into the dungeon.

Soon, he arrived at an abandoned village.

Everywhere were broken walls and ruins, overgrown with moss.

The wooden roof beams had begun to rot, and the tiles on the houses had weathered away; it was unknown how many years had passed.

As soon as Tang Mo appeared, that familiar kacha~ kacha~ sound began to ring out again.

Skeletons carrying bows and arrows soon appeared all around.

By the time they crawled out from underground and stood still, Tang Mo hadn't even clearly seen their information yet—

—before this group of Skeleton Archers turned directly into bone dregs and crumbled all over the ground.

Tang Mo's Poison Barrier was always active, and since the stamina of those Skeleton Archers was lower than that of the Skeleton Soldiers, they naturally couldn't last more than two seconds.

[Killed Level 16 Skeleton Archer, EXP +5,410, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +0.01]

...

[Obtained Soul Fire *9]

[Obtained Quiver *6]

Like the Skeleton Soldiers, the Skeleton Archers also dropped a pile of materials.

Tang Mo didn't mind at all.

After all, materials from dungeons were worth significantly more than those dropped by fierce beasts in the wild.

Because materials from dungeons were indispensable for crafting certain specialized weapons.

And these bones dropped in Undead Mountain were excellent materials for crafting Undead-series weapons.

Specialized weapons of this kind were at least Silver-grade in quality, so the prices of these materials naturally rose accordingly.

Tang Mo, who was used to being poor, naturally wouldn't let these things go.

His storage space had been completely cleared out last night, so there was no need to worry about not having room.

Tang Mo got up and continued walking deeper into the dungeon.

[Skeleton Knight (Elite Monster)]

[Level: 17]

[Strength: 7,200]

[Agility: 6,830]

[Spirit: 3,720]

[Stamina: 43,000]

[Skills: Critical Strike (Lv17), Death Charge (Lv17), Mounted Archery (Lv17), Unyielding (Passive)]

[Skeleton Warhorse (Elite Monster)]

[Level: 17]

[Strength: 7,200]

[Agility: 6,830]

[Spirit: 2,720]

[Stamina: 53,000]

[Skills: Death Charge (Lv17), Gallop (Lv17), Heavy Trample (Lv17), Unyielding (Passive)]

This was the most formidable elite monster Tang Mo had ever seen.

Yes, these were the attributes of a single monster—an elite monster formed by the combination of a knight and a warhorse.

Moreover, their stamina values were stacked.

That is to say, a single Skeleton Knight had over a hundred thousand stamina, which was almost comparable to an Elite Boss.

However, undead creatures had zero resistance to poison.

Under Tang Mo's Soul Poison, it only lasted for 5 seconds.

The Skeleton Knight's attacks failed to deal any effective damage to Tang Mo, and in the end, it could only turn into a pile of shattered bones on the ground.

[Killed Level 17 Skeleton Knight, EXP +12,410, Poison Damage +2, Stamina +0.01]

...

"Although its health was a bit high, it gave a good amount of experience, so it was quite worth the effort."

What made Tang Mo even happier was that this Skeleton Knight not only dropped a pile of materials but also an item of equipment.

Tang Mo stepped forward to pick up the equipment and check it.

[Obtained Bronze-grade Knight's Armor, Stamina +200, Damage Reduction +2%, Level Requirement: 20]

"A Bronze-grade breastplate is still worth some money."

After putting the Knight's Armor into his storage space, Tang Mo continued walking deeper into the dungeon.

Soon, Tang Mo arrived at a huge, open-air beast's lair.

The beast didn't seem to be there; looking around, the lair was filled with the skeletons of various animals and humans, the sheer number of which was chilling.

To be safe, Tang Mo directly unleashed Poison Rain.

Dark green clouds soon covered the upper space of the dungeon, and then, black rain poured down.

The Poison Rain fell on the animal and human bones but elicited no reaction.

"Is it because it hasn't been activated yet?"

Tang Mo took a few more steps toward the lair.

Awoo~!

Suddenly, a loud roar came from afar.

Then came the sound of bones grinding, kacha kacha~ kacha kacha~

It made one's teeth ache, and it felt as if someone were scratching at one's heart.

Before long, a massive figure appeared before Tang Mo's eyes.

[Hell Three-Headed Dog (Elite Boss)]

[Level: 19]

[Strength: 12,500]

[Agility: 8,620]

[Spirit: 10,480]

[Stamina: 262,000]
