Several miles away from the dungeon's location…
"Come on. Come on. Faster. At this rate, we are going to lose them." A chubby hunter commanded his pets in a hurry.
"Madan, I don't see any point in this. He is only going to kill us." A tall blonde scoffed. While the two of them continued to argue, two more notifications rolled in.
[DING. Kingdom Announcement: Congratulations to the 'Crimson Abyss' guild party for the first clear of the 'Wailing Ravine dungeon' on the adventure difficulty.]
[DING. Realm Announcement: Congratulations to the 'Crimson Abyss' guild party for the first clear of the 'Wailing Ravine dungeon' on the adventure difficulty.]
"Fuck! Already? He is going to leave for sure now. He is soloing the dungeon runs and he definitely won't solo the hard mode. Damn it. Damn it. We are going to lose him." Madan cursed out loud.
"And that is your biggest worry? What about how he is soloing the dungeons?" Anya sighed tiredly. It was tiresome to talk to idiots.
The group tried to rush but no matter how much they tried, they only managed to reach the area a few more minutes later. And by then the next announcement also already arrived.
[DING. Kingdom Announcement: Congratulations to the 'Crimson Abyss' guild party for the first clear of the 'Wailing Ravine dungeon' on the nightmare difficulty.]
[DING. Realm Announcement: Congratulations to the 'Crimson Abyss' guild party for the first clear of the 'Wailing Ravine dungeon' on the nightmare difficulty.]
Everyone stopped in their tracks in shock. This was the notification for the nightmare level? That monster also soloed the nightmare difficulty mode?
"That's it. He cleared the hell mode also. Now he definitely won't be there." Madan spat out in a huff.
"What are you blabbering about? That guy is soloing a Level 50 dungeon. This is a bad idea. Let's go back." Anya frowned.
Perhaps because they were in a high-level zone, she felt as if she was constantly being watched from all directions. Because of this and the fact that she was skeptical right from the beginning, she did not want to continue with this.
However, Madan still firmly nodded. "This time, we need to settle the scores. We are definitely getting him today." He had a determined look on his face.
They were almost there so he increased his pace and finally a few more minutes later the group arrived at the 'Wailing Ravine' dungeon.
"Huff. Huff. Huff." Madan panted as he looked around. Unfortunately for him, there was not a soul in sight. "Damn it." He gritted his teeth in frustration.
"I told you so." Anya immediately scoffed.
"Dear sister, you told me shit."
"Shut up. I told you that this was a bad idea from the beginning."
Madan shook his head helplessly with a sigh. This was already a lost cause from the beginning and he was too tired to argue with the Russian bitch at the moment. So he simply gave up. "Fine. Fine. Let's just leave."
"Hmph." Anya scoffed.
The group turned around when suddenly a person appeared in front of them out of thin air. "Leaving so soon?" Liam looked at the hunter who stood on the spot completely frozen.
"What happened? These days you seem to be slacking quite a bit. You did not even check for the presence of stealth players around?"
"Tch. Tch. If you continue to be careless like this, this game will swallow you whole." Liam smirked but his gaze was cold and his sword was drawn.
The other party also had a similar reaction as they glared back at him.
Seeing this, the five elven women on the side wondered what was happening. Lyana in particular was tense.
Though everyone here was human, the two sides were glaring at each other as if they had a blood feud between them.
What was happening? Who were these new people? Was there going to be a dangerous battle taking place? The elf was a war veteran so she could clearly see everyone's defensive body signs.
Lyana's gaze flickered with interest as she mentally prepared to escape and run away in case of danger.
However, weirdly almost an entire minute passed by and no one was making any move. Now the elves started getting confused. The two were glaring at each other but they were not fighting?
Just as they were thinking about this, one side finally made a move. "BroooOOO! Please put that sword away!" Madan dropped to the ground, sitting down abruptly in a defenseless manner.
"Bro, sit down, please. I am only here to chat." He smiled awkwardly.
Liam frowned. He had already expected these stalkers to show up here because the dungeon notifications were basically giving away his location but there was still something amiss.
He looked at the big group which was basically a bunch of beasts except for the two humans. Only Madan and Anya were in front of him.
Where were the other two? Were they planning some sort of ambush? Liam's mind began to spin as he rapidly thought of all possible scenarios.
In stealth mode as well he had searched for them but he couldn't find them. Now that he had surprised them with his presence, he was still not able to find them.
Seeing Liam looking around seriously, Madan loudly laughed. "Bro? Who are you searching for? This is it. Only we both are here."
"Why?" Liam asked directly. If he wanted he could kill this guy in front of him in an instant but he was curious to know why they were here.
"Bro! You really don't know? Come. Come. Sit first." Madan laughed.
However, he saw that Liam was not budging and still stood like a tall immovable mountain, staring at him like a wild animal.
"Bro! Chill. Chill. Like I said we come in peace. As for the other members of our group, we have no idea where they are. We are no longer in that group. Are you now interested in talking to me?" The hunter smiled in glee.
