Holy shit! How could there be such a wicked monster?
“Ah? Isn’t this inappropriate…?”
Wang Hao, who was standing beside him, spoke with a hint of hesitation in his voice.
It wasn’t just Wang Hao; the others also had the same doubts.
Everything goes to him? He’s just a Priest with a broken wooden staff; can he even do this?
Is it based on looks?
If it was about looks, everyone present seemed to have decent appearances, except for the Swordsman on the lighthouse.
They truly didn't understand why he was so confident.
Tan Huan felt a bit flustered at the moment. She had originally wanted to cooperate, but the other party’s appetite was too big.
This was clearly inappropriate and couldn't be explained to the others… Li Xunle remained very calm and spoke unhurriedly:
“Alright, then when you all get carried out, I’ll clear the dungeon myself.”
His voice wasn't loud, but the weight of his words was immense.
It was like a stick of dynamite being detonated… Everyone froze in place, wondering if they had imagined it.
Xia Bingxue’s pretty face was filled with disbelief, and she was the first to speak:
“Clear the dungeon? Are you sure you can clear it?”
Xia Bingxue looked intently at the casually dressed Li Xunle, as if trying to discern something from his face.
Wang Hao and the others also looked seriously at Li Xunle, trying to guess how much truth and how much falsehood was in his words.
Tan Huan pondered for a moment, then immediately spoke:
“Master Li Xunle, we just want the title of clearing the dungeon. If you lead us to clear it, and there’s suitable equipment, we can buy it from you at a price higher than the market rate. How about that?”
Before Li Xunle could answer, Wang Hao and the others chimed in, all speaking at once:
“If he can clear the dungeon, I’ll honor him as my big brother!”
“Yeah, if he can clear it, I’m willing to be his subordinate!”
“I just don’t know if he can do it…”
“Right, if he really can clear it, I’ll livestream myself eating shit…”
Tan Huan immediately turned to look at everyone:
“If we don’t team up, we’ll likely only be able to clear three or four stages before we die and get kicked out of the Hell Difficulty Dungeon.
If we truly clear the dungeon with him, we can not only get the title of clearing it but also gain some level ups.
Besides, none of you are short on money. You can afford to buy equipment, but clearing this dungeon is something money can’t buy…”
Upon hearing this, everyone felt that Tan Huan made a lot of sense.
For a moment, they all waited for Li Xunle to nod.
After all, they indeed weren't short on money or equipment; they only lacked levels and fame.
If they could clear the Hell Difficulty Dungeon, it would be something worth bragging about for several years.
After a moment of thought, Xia Bingxue looked at Li Xunle and softly said:
“How about this, if there’s any equipment we can use, we can buy it at double the market price, okay?”
Li Xunle heard this and felt there was no problem:
“That’s certainly possible.”
His main goal was to make money, and he could sell the equipment for more than the market price, without having to pull monsters himself, enjoying a leisurely time… Although he would share some experience, the impact wasn't significant, and he would definitely have to run the dungeon many more times later, so there was no pressure.
Tan Huan looked around at Wang Hao and the others, and finding no further objections, she spoke loudly:
“Master Li Xunle, we’ve discussed it, you take all the items, and we’ll just take the experience.”
After saying that, she also took out the piece of equipment she had picked up earlier from her backpack:
“This piece of equipment just dropped, it’s yours too.”
Wang Hao suddenly spoke:
“Li Xunle, are you confident about clearing the dungeon? Do you need us to lend you some equipment?”
Li Xunle gently shook his head and said:
“Lend equipment? No need! But I must state, while the dungeon can be cleared, you might not all survive until the end. You must find ways to protect yourselves.”
“That’s natural, we just hide, right?”
Wang Hao chuckled heartily, instantly understanding what the other person meant.
Everyone also immediately understood why Li Xunle and Zhao Hao had climbed onto the lighthouse pole at the first opportunity… Li Xunle waved his hand:
“Zhao Hao, go down and pick up the equipment.”
Zhao Hao was stunned. Pick up equipment?
He looked at the several pieces of equipment lying on the ground, his eyes burning with eagerness.
He quickly slid down the lighthouse pole, running and saying:
“That lighthouse pole is mine, don’t even think about taking my lighthouse pole…”
Everyone pursed their lips speechlessly, as if anyone would try to snatch his lighthouse pole.
But at this moment.
The Archer Zhang Tian, inadvertently climbed onto the third lighthouse pole… That was the last lighthouse pole on the scene.
Wang Hao and the others looked at this scene, their eyes showing disdain:
“I say, Zhang Tian, do you really have to?”
Zhang Tian said shamelessly:
“As everyone knows, archers are long-range attackers, the higher you stand, the farther you shoot. I’m not cowardly, it’s a tactical necessity…”
“Tsk—!”
Wang Hao and the others didn't believe a word he said.
If he had said that at any other time, it would have been reasonable, but at this moment, saying it sounded a bit like protesting too much.
But besides disdain, no one bothered to argue.
Soon.
Zhao Hao finished picking up the several pieces of equipment, even taking the one from Tan Huan’s hand.
He quickly climbed back up the lighthouse pole.
He was very happy, his face almost splitting with a smile.
These pieces of equipment could at least sell for several hundred to a thousand yuan.
This was just the first stage; the equipment in the remaining nine stages would probably be worth even more.
This might not matter to wealthy scions like Xia Bingxue, but for Zhao Hao and Li Xunle, who had been poor for a long time, it was incredibly appealing.
At this moment.
Several large characters appeared in the sky again:
Stage Two!
Li Xunle immediately shouted:
“Everyone remember to lure the monsters to the base of my lighthouse pole, and I will attack! Everyone just focus on staying alive.”
As soon as his voice fell.
In the arena, four dark holes once again spewed out monster figures.
Completely different from the Stone Giants, this time it was a dense swarm of monsters.
They were small in stature, with red eyes, sharp claws, tusks, wearing red hats, and holding steel forks and spears.
Goblins!
Li Xunle recognized the type of monster at a glance.
He carefully checked the Goblin’s attributes:
—
[Goblin] (Normal Monster)
Level: 2
HP: 100% (2000)
Morality: -5
Intelligence: 4
Stamina: 12
Charm: -2
Strength: 8
Attack: 25
Defense: 14
Skill One: [Throwing Skill: Goblins often throw rocks or other objects to attack enemies, causing a certain amount of damage.]
Skill Two: [Stealing Skill: Goblins often attempt to steal items from other creatures, especially valuable treasures and equipment. Players need to constantly monitor their inventory to prevent Goblins from stealing.]
Skill Three: [Invisibility Skill: Goblins possess a certain degree of invisibility, allowing them to become invisible for a period of time to evade enemy attacks.]
Skill Four: [Fast Movement Skill: Goblins are very agile and can move quickly to evade enemy attacks or pursue prey.]
Description: Goblins, small and ugly creatures, originated from the “Redcap” legend in Germanic mythology. Legend has it that they live in ruined castles on the border between England and Scotland, with red eyes, sharp claws, tusks, wearing red hats, and carrying a long spear in their left hand. They kill all travelers who get lost in the castle and use the victims’ blood to dye their hats red.
Note: Beware! They often appear in groups, ferocious and ruthless!
Catchphrase: All those beauties and gold and silver treasures are ours!

Li Xunle was stunned!
Holy crap! How are there even such immoral monsters?
Morality is actually -5?
Charm is actually -2?
How many immoral things have they done? It’s actually negative?
Damn it, truly damn it!
How many innocent women have they robbed?
After complaining, he observed carefully and found that the most obvious difference in this round was… the sheer quantity!
There were numerous Goblins, estimated to be no less than 100.
And the Goblins were very fast, with a Stamina of 12.
Li Xunle thought to himself:
“If it weren’t for me, you guys would definitely be sent packing.”
