Child of Destiny Chapter 2029: Commission (Part 4)

...

What Laurent had said previously was true. The people from the Heavenly Resto-Bar were indeed capable of clearing the entire dungeon by themselves. Arthur and Leonard did not need to do anything since they could handle everything.

Aside from the average skills of the team, their understanding of the dungeon was quite deep, regardless of the powerful monsters within the dungeon.

This dungeon was filled with strange creatures with odd abilities.

These creatures were similar to Beastn, which leaned more toward being a furry with dominant beast features rather than the standard Demi-Human team of the ga that had a more human appearance.

Most of these Beastn fought with insanely high combat AI, which gave most of the people they faced a lot of challenges.

Their skills, techniques, and other combat prowess reached an exceptionally high level, rivalling even those of the top experts in the ga.

This feature of the dungeon alone had already proven that it was much more challenging compared to the Lesser Hatchling Cave that the Empyrean Talons had explored previously, especially when these Beastn also possessed a high level of coordination and battle formations.

In a sense, the group was fighting a standard military force defending the dungeon rather than a bunch of random monsters from regular dungeons of the ga.

Fighting these Beastn was quite beneficial for the leading players of the ga, who liked to hone their skills through combat.

This was a perfect place to train the troops of top organizations, especially when the experience points that these Beastn provided were decent enough to satisfy the needs of these leading players.

Leveling up at their current level was getting harder as ti went by, even after reaching the Awakened Continent.

Places like this, which could both give a decent amount of experience points and hone the skills of the players was sothing that everyone would seek after, especially the top guilds and huge organizations of the ga.

If not for the sense of urgency and the existence of the other entrances of this dungeon, which the other forces could use to explore, then Laurent and his Heavenly Resto-Bar would do their best to take advantage of the benefits that this place provided and maximize them to the fullest.

It was a pity that it was a competition-type of dungeon, where multiple parties needed to fight over it and race for its clearance.

...

In the anti, despite not needing to make their moves, Arthur and Leonard took the initiative to join the battle and even acted as the frontliners of the team.

They were not a type to leech experience points at the back while the rest of the team were doing their best to clear the dungeon.

They would rather struggle at the frontlines rather than do nothing at the backlines.

Moreover, after seeing how powerful and skilled these monsters were, the two imdiately ignited their competitive spirit and battled hunger to join the fun.

They were takingane active role in clearing the dungeon, not willing to miss this opportunity to challenge themselves along with these new types of monsters that they encountered.

This was a great opportunity to train, so why would they waste this chance and let it slip through their fingers?

"Those two are truly a pair of monsters," comnted Renz, one of the Transcendent Beings of the group, who was also from the Ocean Naga Race and had the Vitor Mare Class.

"We have taken a couple of hours to adjust ourselves to the battle styles and combat formations of this bunch of strange monsters, but they have only taken a dozen minutes or so to find their rhythm."

"Top Gods sure are different," he added, watching the two fight at the forefront of the group and leading everyone while advancing.

Laurent, who was overseeing everything from the back, shook his head before smiling bitterly. "Those two are indeed from a different breed. Their reputation within the ga is not unfounded."

Renz nodded his head before having so doubts. "We both are Transcendent Beings, yet the gap is still quite noticeable."

He then turned to Laurent and said. "Aside from you, young master, I don’t think anyone from our organization is capable of rivaling them."

"Well, that is only because of my higher realm in the real world, along with my richer experience in comparison," said Laurent before shaking his head. "However, their understanding of their class, race, and the chanics of the ga is much deeper than mine."

"That is only the reason why everything else is balanced," he added before recalling a few people that he knew.

"However, when we compare them with Khing, Snow White, and those old title holders from the previous gas, I must say that these two are still a bit wet behind their ears," he said, giving a serious remark.

Renz furrowed his brows for a mont before asking. "Isn’t it a bit exaggerated?"

"Do you think so?" said Laurent before smirking. "Do you think that the reputation of those people is empty words now and has beco beautiful flattery to honor themselves?"

"Let tell you-... before these two can even establish their nas during the reign of «True Era» Online, those people from the previous generation’s ranking list can beat them in submission."

"Even if these two have improved and reached such unprecedented levels, I can still na quite a few, or even a dozen, people, who have higher odds of winning against them."

He paused for a mont, thinking of those people, before continuing. "Let’s set aside Khing and Snow White for obvious reasons, as well as Faker and Lawless, who have just returned to their respective forms-..."

"Those lunatics who have ford the Blood Carnival are no joke, particularly Pierro, the Jester, Joker, and are just a few of them. Those guys are demons of another level, rivaling Khing and the bunch."

"Then there are also the old monsters joining the ga, which clearly have higher attainnts when it cos to life-and-death combat."

"So of the retired players, who have stepped out of the virtual world due to their higher attainnts from different disciplines, will most likely return as well due to various reasons."

Thinking about these people, Laurent could not help but shake his head before adding. "I can’t help but imagine how chaotic the office of the Mystery Pavilion is due to this."

"I am sure that they are having trouble trying to reorganize the ranking lists that they are proud of," he chucked after learning about this.

...

While the two were chatting, Riko, who was the third Transcendent Being of the team, was focusing on another matter.

Her race was the Nine-Tailed Fox with a Class of Himiko, which was a Transcendent Class of Shaman profession.

As soone with a similar race and class, Riko could not help but beco interested in Huahua, especially when the latter was too cute.

"You are quite good, little sister. Where have you learned those tricks?" she asked while hopping to Huahua’s side.

Among the mbers of this team, this little Foxkin was the only one who was taking this dungeon exploration very seriously.

Everyone else within the team were experts on their own right, which greatly put a lot of pressure on Huahua. After all, she was still a rookie when it ca to playing gas.

If not for the rain that she underwent from the Empyrean Talons, then she would have most likely collapsed under such pressure.

She was able to calm herself down and coordinate with the team well, supporting everyone with her totems and ghost spells.

The Shaman Class was among the more complicated classes of the ga since it had different paths that the players needed to focus on while building their combat style.

Shamans had quite a complicated skill distribution due to the series of combat styles to choose from.

Among them, Summoning Type, who commanded Ghost Soldiers and mythical creatures, was one of the more famous paths.

There was also the Curse Type, who liked to give their opponents stacks of negative statuses and debuffs during the battle – a complete auxiliary type of play style.

There was also the Talisman Type, who majored in creating a bunch of talismans with different effects. These talismans contained a variety of spells in them, mimicking the Spell Scrolls of the Mage Class.

This type of Shaman could also summon a series of spell formations with the help of their talismans and by linking them with one another.

The other Shaman Type was the Totem Type, which Huahua chose to be her main style among all these paths.

This type of Shaman focused on supporting their allies by summoning a series of totems, which had different effects depending on which type they summoned.

They could also create a series of Totem Formations, which generate special effects by linking different totems with one another.

These were just a few of the paths that the Shaman Class could follow during their progress.

Riko leaned more on the Talisman Type due to the unique features of her Himiko Class.

What made her curious about Huahua was her unique style, which seed to be a hybrid type that followed multiple paths of the Shaman Class.

However, the main focus of this style still centered around the Totem Style, which she had mastered to a certain degree.

’This little girl is interesting. Hmm, I wonder if the Leader will let bring her back to the base to train with her. Her Class is quite special as well, especially those strange ghost soldiers,’ thought Riko, seemingly cooking up sothing inside her head.
