The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1249: Inquiring Minds

{Dungeon Complete} Calculating Rewards

The three invited group members sighed in relief.

”That dungeon is insane with the difficulty turned up. I’ve never seen a boss take that much punishment before, and Terry’s still limping from that hit, even after being healed.” Mars grumbled.

”But it will all be worth it. Trust the process.” Karl agreed.

Mars smiled as the rewards were handed out, then he got immediately protective of his reward.

”Don’t worry, we won’t try to force anyone to reveal what they got, but we will ask what Rank and Grade it is, so we can tell the others how much the loot improved.” Karl assured him.

”Right, I forgot that we need to tell those greedy bastards.

Well, then no point in hiding it, or they’ll just give us headaches.” Terry agreed.

Then he took out a pair of fur covered bracers. Mythic Rank, Epic Grade. Plus, they gave a large bonus to strength. Excellent for a tank.

”The trash loot is all common and uncommon, Totem Rank.” He added.

Karl nodded, and made a note of it while the others took out their best gain.

”I got a Mythic Rank, Epic Grade Amulet of [Healing Beacon]. Tian is wearing it right now.” Karl explained, while the tiny fox showed off the bright silver chain around his neck like a collar.

The Amulet wasn’t an item that created a spell effect, in the traditional sense. Instead, it granted a portion of all healing done to the healer as an added effect. So, the cleric of the group, in this case the fox, didn’t have to cast heals on himself. He would just get it passively.

The others envied the ability to just keep himself healed. But more than that, they envied the level of confidence needed to give an item like that to your pet fox.

While Tian was Karl’s primary healer, it was difficult to take him seriously when he was two kilos of fluff and happiness.

Dana held out a headband made of vines. ”Mythic Rank, Epic Grade. Optimized for a mage, but nothing outstanding. I also got a bunch of Totem Ranked uncommon and common magical items that will likely get broken down for materials.”

Mars held out a book. ”Perhaps asking was prophetic. I got a book of [Greater Poison Totem]. Shaman exclusive, and an Epic grade skill. I’ll loan it to the blue dragons first, so they can copy it if anyone wants it.”

Remi nodded happily. She definitely wanted more shaman totems. The two that she already had were pretty good, and Karl’s new [Mana Pylon] was almost a totem type spell, since it made a crystal that caused an area effect.

James held up a crude looking wooden bow, that was actually a Mythic Rank item, but the more that Karl looked at the bonuses, the more impressive they really looked.

”Mythic Rank, Epic Grade bow of Sharpshooting. There is an exceptional bonus to accuracy and firing rate, but it also has a chance to fire a duplicate effect on attack. This should be a huge increase in damage for me.” He announced proudly.

”Well, I suppose that we should go tell the others what we found. That’s five for five with the epic grade items from a level three difficulty, and we finished with over ten minutes left on the timer.

That might be a tight schedule for most groups, but not impossible.” Karl calculated.

No, that was definitely impossible, Terry knew. Most groups didn’t have enough combatants to easily deal with the additional groups, so they would get mired down in bodies and end up running out of time.

However, that just meant that they needed to improve their group composition, and add a few more specialized skills so that they could properly deal with large groups.

It wasn’t a concern for most Dungeon Raiding teams, as the groups were always fairly small, and at your own Rank.

There weren’t any other known dungeons in Zilaz that made you accomplish a feat like this one, where you had to fight a hundred enemies a Rank below your own, while on a timer.

”Well, it looks like we’ve all got some recruiting to do, and perhaps some skill shopping at the Blue Dragon Libraries as well.” Terry decided.

Even a mage or Shaman like Remi, who could use multiple overlapping area attacks, would go a long way toward clearing this dungeon within the time limit.

”How did it go?” Deve asked as they exited the dungeon.

”As soon as we entered, it gave us the choice to choose difficulty. We picked level three, and it was similar to the first run. But we learned that the enrage increases with completion, and at level three it caps out as a very powerful Mythic boss.

It also had a forty-five-minute success timer.

I made a list of the major rewards, and they’re definitely worth it.” Karl explained.

The other Guild Masters shared excited plans to loot this place clear, once they could get one of the Alliance members who could trigger it every visit to join them.

Paul frowned. ”Now, I suppose that the issue will be that it is likely only the record holders that can trigger the dungeon’s difficulty settings. Unless one of us can beat the record, it won’t become a shared effect.”

Karl shrugged. ”It is possible that it will. Check tomorrow, and one of these three might be able to activate up to level three, as that is what they’ve accomplished.

The dungeon didn’t say anything about it, but for the Overlord Ranked Dungeon, everyone who has done hard mode once triggers it when they go in again.”

Paul nodded. ”We sent an Overlord Raid in today, with one member from the Alliance. They will report back soon to let us know how it went. We have high hopes that they will expand the better loot to my Guild’s whole Overlord Rank Raid Team.”

One of the other Guild Masters snorted in amusement.

Paul’s Guild Alliance was similar to the Nara Group, in that they had numerous Overlords training up to become Totems. But most of the other Alliances had smaller numbers and only took powerful members or those who would serve the Guild.
