"Don't stare at me like that; it's giving me anxiety," the little Hunter said weakly .
"Hurry up," Hachi Chan scolded as she slapped her on the head . Their fragile friendship could no longer be salvaged from her envy . She wanted to be like her best friend too, having anything she wanted .
It didn't seem like Remnant Dream was worried too much about spinning to the left or to the right; she just grabbed the wheel and spun it carelessly .
Unsurprisingly, she received the weapon .
When Remnant Dream equipped the level 40 Dark Gold Bow, her damage stepped up to the next tier .
On the sixth floor, the level of the monsters was increased to 45 . At this point, they had begun to surpass the players . The only player here who wouldn't feel the effects of the level punishment was Lu Li, who was level 44 . The others were all only either level 41 or 42 .
The level punishment in Dawn came into effect after three levels . Both damage dealt and damage taken became key factors that affected the efficiency of killing monsters . Previously, Rain Like A Wanderer had asked Lu Li to pull more monsters . This time, he asked Lu Li to stop before he had even begun .
For a tank, the most troublesome part of these high-leveled monsters was their Critical Strike .
"For this floor, it'll be good if we can just pass it . We won't be able to get an SSS grade, so we just need to try our best," Lu Li said . He hadn't even attempted this floor last time .
"These monsters give so much experience," Nuo Yu noticed as he looked at his experience bar .
He was an executive in the guild now and was the type to be really passionate about guild events . Previously, when they had fought with the Gangnam Royals, he always charged ahead and died four times within the span of a few days .
Even with his team members reviving him, he still lost half a level .
This time, Lu Li had brought everyone to do the trial tower . The SSS grade not only gave them prizes, but also rewarded them with an abundance of EXP . Their Experience bars had already increased by around 30%, which was about as much as they had lost .
The monsters in this stage gave even more EXP than an average elite monster .
The last semi-boss was very difficult to kill . It had an arsenal of skills and high damage, as well as a frustrating amount of health regeneration . When you dealt 1000 damage to it, it instantly regained 500 HP back .
Any other team wouldn't be able to sustain through this Boss .
When the system announced that they had completed the sixth floor and received an A grade, Lu Li and the others were surprised . They weren't complaining that the grade was low, rather, they were shocked that it was so high .
Regardless of the grade, they would receive a chance to draw a prize as long as they passed .
The items were more average this time; they were nothing compared to the previous five floors . Among the eight items that Lu Li had, half of them were rubbish . Two of the slots were skills that he had already learned, while another was a weapon recipe for an average Silver grade equip . The materials weren't cheap either, so making this weapon would be a waste of money .
His needle landed on a useless equip, and the others shared similar results . Only Remnant Dream's needle landed on a skill book . It wasn't an exquisite skill book, but it was still one that she hasn't learned yet .
The seventh floor contained level 50 monsters . Lu Li's team members wanted to try it, but he stopped them .
It was true that all the monsters in the trial tower were average monsters, with only the last one being a semi-boss . However, level 50 monsters were not to be underestimated, especially by players who were eight to nine levels lower .
Once you started the stage, you weren't allowed to end it forcefully unless you died .
Lu Li and the others exited from the trial tower, but there were still a great number of players inside . All 80,000 members of Ruling Sword were invited, as long as they participated in the events over the past few days . This came to a total of 60,000 players .
Since this was such a major event, the other guilds had already heard about it .
Not only did they know that the Ruling Sword players were frantically leveling, but they could even find out what their coordinates were .
The Gangnam Royals, who had been aiming their spears at Ruling Sword, couldn't sit still for any longer .
They sent out an army, numbering in the tens of thousands . Not only did they want to taint this holy ground of leveling and loot, but they also wanted their revenge . Hear of War would never admit that they had lost their battle because they weren't as good; he always thought that it was because Ruling Sword refused to fight them face on .
He wasn't being unreasonable either .
If they really engaged in a full-out a battle with Ruling Sword, they could fight five to one and definitely destroy them .
Thousands teleported into the Hinterlands and headed straight towards the forest that the trial tower was located at .
Although the other guilds didn't act, intelligence was floating around everywhere . They paid close attention to the Gangnam Royals and their advancement . As soon as the Gangnam Royals successfully entered the trial tower, it was fair game for the others .
With a numbers advantage, level 50 monsters posed less of a threat . They immediately died under the flurry of skills landed on them .
However, when the Gangnam Royals' 100-man team ran into a level 60 monster and was wiped, all the guilds lost their cheerful attitude .
This wasn't enough for people to feel hopeless – after all, there weren't a lot of level 60 monsters . They could easily sacrifice some players to distract and pull them away .
What really silenced the Gangnam Royals was the Raptor Boss, or rather, Raptor Bosses . They were only level 55, but who would expect three of them?
The Gangnam Royals lost many members this time . Around 700 players were slaughtered during their trip through this forest of death .
They soon reached the conclusion that if they sent in more than a hundred players at once, there was a good chance of a Boss appearing . As such, they decided to reduce the size of their scout team .
Within a short hour, the Gangnam Royals had lost three thousand players . This was more than in their fight against Ruling Sword in a day .
Eventually, the Gangnam Royals finally made it past the forest and to the trial tower . However, what welcomed them was a pre-emptive strike from Ruling Sword . Every last Gangnam Royals player died, having barely achieved anything .
The rational guilds had already decided to temporarily give up the trial tower . Although they were upset, it was better than them dying like the Gangnam Royals . Drizzle Court was the only one who persisted .
