Chapter 169──Golden Monstrous Eagle

Unceasable was a bold lady who appeared neither too young nor too old. Her ID sort of indicated her personality.

Noticing everyones Health was at critical levels, she swung her staff, bringing them back to safe levels. With Unceasable joining the fray, they were saved from dire straits.

The golden monstrous eagle was strong, even more so than Nin. Butthey were no longer their past selves either. Not only were their levels way higher, but Drako Yaus squad had also undergone class progression.

Drako Yaus skills played a big role in controlling the enemy. Snowy Doorstep and Icefrost applied a triple debuff on the eagle which greatly helped everyone out. Even more surprisingly, Hades unsheathed a sword from his back.

An assassin wielding a sword?

Hades combat style had never been like an assassin. He had originally wanted to become a warrior, but thanks to Real Worlds weird setting, players couldnt pick their classes. He ended up as an assassin, his usual class, by accident.

When Drako Yau and his members had been training themselves, Hades didnt slack off either. He received a skill from an encounter quest: Sword Mastery. Yes, it was just an ordinary skill that every weaponmaster had. But things werent that simple when Hades, an assassin, learnt it.

Hades flickering silhouette showed not the signs of a pesky assassin, but that of a heavy-swinging warrior, though his strikes also contained a tint of an assassins deadliness. Such was the chemistry between his combat style and the Assassin class. Receiving the ability to wield swords improved his prowess by several tiers.

Zephyrwolf wasnt frustrated even when seeing that his archrival had suddenly grown a lot stronger. Instead, he was overflowing with eagerness. He patted Nenes furry legs and said, Show them what youve got.

Raaa! Nene howled as she widened her sinister jaws and shot out a blast of flames.

Ouuu! The eagle shrieked; taking on Nenes flames apparently wasnt that easy.

After changing his class to Demon Wolf Hero, Zephyrwolf could also learn skills for Nene apart from his own skills. This was Nenes Level 25 skill, Hellscorch.

Zephyrwolf was already lunging at the eagleDemon Wolf Strike! Nene, posted at the rear, sat down like a turret as she fired off spells such as Windblade and Fireball one after another; she basically had the firepower of two mages.

Meanwhile, Windstrider was casting his skill continuously as always. Because of Dual Magazine, he had almost maxed out every one of Hunters basic skills: Heart-Piercing Shot, Repelling Shot, Double Shot While these skills didnt deal a lot of damage even when maxed out, they could be cast twice every time and had a short cooldown. As such, he safely secured third place on the team DPS ranking.

The first was Drako Yau, and the second was Dumbgirl.

Attacks buffed by Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms were devastating. Basic attacks could dish out similar damage to active skills and also inflicted all sorts of debuffs, including aerial blockade, slowness, rend, stun It was one of the best inheritances in the game for a reason.

As for Drako Yau, triggering the explosive effect of Soaring Flames after inflicting burn with Fiery Dance greatly increased his damage output. His flurry of spear thrusts on the eagle also inflicted heavy damage.

Battles were taking place all over the golden palace. High-level bosses appeared as if they were mere wild monsters. Every squad had encountered at least one of them, and not everyone was so lucky to have received reinforcements like Drako Yau and Hades.

There was one good thing about the golden monstrous eagle, and that was it didnt hunt players down. As long as you were willing to retreat by a certain distance, itd leisurely fly away, but its gaze would lock onto you once you stepped within its range again.

Many squads had fallen prey to the golden monstrous eagle. After all, it wasnt an existence that everyone could go up against.

The golden eagle made a final cry and tumbled to the ground, morphing into an orb of golden light that dispersed soon after.

Everyone was at a loss for words when it took them that much effort only for the golden eagle to not drop a single thing. Not that anyone was in the mood to rant; they were all lying on the ground, gasping for air.

The golden eagles final retaliation before its inevitable death was a series of nineteen consecutive tornadoesin such a narrow place no less.

Being careless, Everlastor, Zephyrwolf, and Dumbgirl died instantly, while Greenstones miraculous healing saved Windstrider and Hades. Fortunately, the palace turned out to be a dungeon. The recently implemented death limit took effect here. Still, the three received a system notification notifying them that they could no longer respawn after coming back to life once. In other words, it was a Hell-difficulty dungeon!

Hades was stunned as he sized up Dumbgirl. Where did you find such a young crazy bastard? What are her skills? Hidden class?

Drako Yau ignored Hades and simply stood up to stretch. Lets go, he said.

As if the golden eagle was the only obstacle, their journey from that point onwards was all smooth sailing. The tense atmosphere gradually turned lax enough for them to start chit-chatting. Unceasable had her eyes solely on Greenstone, who followed closely behind Drako Yau.

Hey lad, got a girlfriend?

Unceasables bold words made everyone drop their jaws. Startled, Greenstone pointed at himself, then looked at her and asked, Me? 

Mhm.

Oh.

What was that? Is that a yes or no?

No.

Then you do from now on.

They were all stupefied at how brazen she sounded, but Greenstone was as composed as ever and shot her down coldly.

Not interested.

It was Unceasables turn to be stupefied. Hey! Arent I hot? Ive got 36D!

Not my type.

They all felt helpless at the weird conversation going on and decided to ignore Unceasable who kept asking questions and Greenstone who calmly dodged everything thrown at him. With Greenstones decent features, brawny body, and masculine atmosphere, it was normal for ladies to seek his hand in an unceasing pursuit.

Girl, whats your name?

Hades, almost sounding like a queer pedo, was in a good mood. He asked such a pointless question even though he could clearly see the ID Dumbgirl above her head.

Dumbgirl looked at Hades, then kept her distance from him. Mum says I shouldnt talk to strange uncles.

Im not a strange uncle, said Hades as he frowned.

Dumbgirl turn around to ask Drako Yau, Papa, is he a strange uncle?

The Underworld members were shocked. Papa?

They knew what Drako Yau looked like beneath his mask. Just how on earth did he become a papa at just his age!
