I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 617, pages 2.3-6: Guess Who I Am

As dusk settled, the group relaxed after a long period without enemy attacks. They gathered some dry firewood to start a fire in preparation for the cold night.

Ming Jin fiddled with her pistol, slightly raised her eyes, and saw a voice slowly approaching from afar. She said softly, "Ah, welcome back."

"How is the situation?" Dao Lin jumped off the rock and approached Mu Yegui, taking the plate she handed him and asking slowly.

“Ghosts can be attacked, and they will die if they are seriously injured, but they will revive before they are eliminated. The first time they die, it takes six hours, and the second time it takes four hours. You cannot do anything to them for twenty minutes after they revive, and no matter how many times they revive, they are invincible for 20 minutes,” Mu Yegui said softly.

After she took the disc, she started timing, silently calculating the time each time.

“Anything else?” Bertias asked.

"The ghost's wounds heal within ten minutes of being injured, but this only applies to the first wound. The second wound is recalculated within ten minutes, meaning that even if there is a ten-second interval between the two wounds, they will not heal simultaneously, but will heal after another ten minutes. Each wound has an independent ten-minute mechanism."

Injuries and strenuous exercise will deplete a ghost's stamina. In this map, even without injury, a ghost can only sustain high-intensity exercise for an hour before becoming exhausted. After becoming exhausted, it needs to rest for 30 minutes to fully recover.

In the case of an injury, the specific cost depends on the location of the injury. For a normal injury, the stamina consumption is doubled by 0.1%-1%. An injury to the foot increases the cost by 5%-10%. A broken leg results in immediate loss of mobility, still following the 10-minute recovery mechanism. Of course, once the user stops moving, it counts as rest time, and stamina will recover.

"There are pros and cons, but at least it's good news," Dao Lin said, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

“No wonder it took you so long. But where was the ghost when you came here?” Bertias nodded and said.

“I exhausted its stamina by deliberately leading it in the opposite direction during the battle. Considering the time it needs to recover and travel to find its way, it will take at least three more hours before it appears in front of us,” Mu Yegui said, holding up three fingers.

"Because of the moon, the night here won't be dark but rather very bright. You can see clearly even without lighting a fire. It will be 10 PM in three hours, which means that will be the time when we officially part ways. Everyone should take this opportunity to rest well," Dao Lin said slowly after thinking for a while.

Suddenly she looked at Shui Qi, who was sitting in the distance with his back to them, and asked softly, "What's wrong with Shui Qi?"

"He's repenting with the strongest sense of shame he's ever felt in his life. This is probably the only time he'll ever feel shame, so it's best not to disturb him," Mingxi said bluntly, glancing at Shui Qi's slightly desolate back.

Shui Qi hugged his knees with his back to them. After hearing Ming Xi's words, he turned his head slightly and gave him a resentful look before continuing to hide himself.

"Has he been drinking?" Mu Yegui asked in return.

"How did you know?!" Kroya exclaimed in surprise. She wasn't even there, so how could she be so accurate in saying that Shui Qi had been drinking? After all, drinking in a dungeon is an option that should never happen.

"Because Shui Qi only feels ashamed and embarrassed after drinking and acting crazy." This is what she discovered after getting Shui Qi drunk in the Far Voyage Travelogue dungeon. Of course, she wouldn't say the last sentence out of consideration for Shui Qi, although only Dao Lin knew it besides her.

Honestly, even a kid like Ming Jin can drink more than Shui Qi.

"Your alcohol tolerance is too low. Don't you guys consider training your vice president, Shui Qi, to improve his drinking capacity?" Dao Lin raised an eyebrow and looked at Chloe and Lan Xiao with a half-smile, asking.

Lan Xiao said softly, "Our president can drink." The implication was that Shui Qi should remain a good boy; someone always has to be sober. "I don't think Dao Lin has the right to say that. You're both equally bad," Beltias thought to himself.

At least Shui Qi could remain sober for a while after drinking and act crazy for a period of time, while Dao Lin would pass out after just one sip, as if a sleeping pill had been put in his drink, and he would fall into a deep sleep until dawn.

Honestly, talking about these two's drinking capacity is a disgrace to their intellectual group. It makes everyone think that those who are good at scheming aren't good at drinking. The mockery from the martial arts group next door will one day be retaliated against with the heads of Dao Lin and Shui Qi.

The explanations for the "IQ Group" and the "Force Group" were originally created by some bored person who came up with these four groups and posted them on the door of the conference room.

IQ Group: Dao Lin, Isaiah, Ming Jin, Beltias, Shui Qi

Combat Team: Mu Yin, Ming Xi, Xin Bai, Noyce, Lan Xiao

Comprehensive Group: Mu Yegui, Ling Tong, Fei, Ji Rong

Special Group: Horus, Moa, Olycia, Jolin, Chloe, Cyros, Cunxi, Fernana, Koya

The "Intelligence Group" refers to those who rely primarily on intelligence and strategy, preferring to talk rather than act, while the "Force Group" is the opposite, preferring to act rather than talk, and generally possessing above-average physical strength.

The "Comprehensive Group" refers to individuals whose intelligence and fighting ability are both above average, also known as all-rounders. The "Special Group" consists of individuals with special abilities that do not fall under the categories of intelligence or fighting ability.

The special group is not just an ordinary group; it cannot be described solely by intelligence and physical strength.

For example, Fernana is known as a living map; she can automatically convert everything she has been to and seen into a map in her mind and never forgets it, no matter where she goes.

Horus's leadership skills are terrifying; otherwise, Shui Qi, that restless fellow, wouldn't have obediently become his subordinate and hasn't betrayed him until now.

Their specialness lies not in their intelligence or martial prowess, but in other aspects, and these aspects are not privileges granted by the title of crown prince, but abilities they possess in themselves, that is, their talents.

“This…” Mu Yegui pointed to the pistol in Dao Lin’s hand, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"A pistol. I remember you weren't very good at using this." Dao Lin looked down at the gun in his hand, then handed it to Mu Yegui and said slowly.

Ming Jin leaned against a withered tree, fiddling with something in her hands, and said without looking up, "She's not just bad at it, she clearly messes it up every time she tries."

Upon hearing this, Dao Lin suddenly recalled the gunshot during his previous voyage, and then realized that he seemed to have already pulled the safety pin before handing it to Mu Yegui.

"Wait..." Daolin called out.

A gunshot rang out.
