There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 274, Hmm? An even better experience monster!
Xiao Yang quickly figured out who these guys were.

As the detection spell swept across, a series of strange and unusual names appeared.

He wasn't a dungeon monster, nor a native of the Rotten Lands, but a player, a god-like gamer like himself.

After the first round of investigation, Xiao Yang didn't get any useful information. All he got was a simple name and level, and mostly just a series of question marks.

Compared to unsuspecting dungeon monsters, players are more aware of the tactics used by fellow players and are therefore more wary.

This was the first time Xiao Yang had truly faced off against other players in the Gods game since becoming a player himself.

Having been accustomed to the local area network's single-player mode for a long time, Xiao Yang was inevitably cautious and wary of this first time.

In particular, the level of these guys in front of them is generally above level 40, and one of them is even level 50.

He gripped the rusty giant axe tightly in his hand.

Neither side acted rashly at the first opportunity.

Xiao Yang was somewhat inexperienced, while the person opposite him was simply inhuman because of the large, dark hole in Xiao Yang's chest.

The silence will not last forever.

Xiao Yang, who hadn't taken any precautions against other players, had his information roughly extracted during the detection technique.

We still want to thank Shenming Games for protecting player information.

Apart from the basic level, name, title, and attributes, everything else is well protected.

Even at this point, what Xiao Yang revealed was already quite astonishing.

[Player: Screaming Emperor (After the Slaughter)]
Race: Human (supernatural)

Rank: Lord

Rating: 29
Life: 3440
Power: 164
Defense: 179
Agility: 182
Spirit: 140
Physique: 20]

A look of astonishment appeared.

Is this attribute normal?

The answer is obvious: such a property is not normal.

However, Xiao Yang didn't even give them more time to be astonished.

Relying on one's own skills, various methods specifically designed to deal with players, and all sorts of other miscellaneous things, since none of these are complete, it's better to be direct and just charge in.

"Let's have a ruthless face-off!"

Xiao Yang was very confident in himself, but this was, after all, his first time fighting against other players, and they were players whose levels were higher than the others.

When choosing a target, Xiao Yang chose the guy who shouted "demon" at him.

This choice is not about holding a grudge.

Xiao Yang had his own considerations. First of all, this guy was on the outermost edge of the group of players on the other side.

Should we capture the leader first? Xiao Yang decided to test the opponent's strength first, then his own. If things went wrong and he was truly outmatched, running away was also an option.

Almost instantly, Xiao Yang, holding his rusty giant axe high, appeared in front of the foul-mouthed demonic cultivator. Somewhat surprised by this sudden attack, the demonic cultivator reacted quickly.

First, a blood-red skull flew out, then a protective barrier suddenly lit up on its body, followed by a series of talismans being flung out, and finally a small flag being offered up.

This guy's skills are quite high; he immediately used both defensive and offensive methods.

The path to immortality is indeed a very special one.

Each of these cultivators was an all-rounder in eight disciplines.

It has high attack power, good defense, fast speed, and a resilient soul. It also has a dazzling array of random and varied techniques.

You could say they're all all-around athletes.

It has almost no obvious drawbacks.

They consume too many resources; they're like locusts of spiritual energy.

It's just a pity that Xiao Yang is even more of an all-rounder.

The blood-red skull was sent flying by Xiao Yang's body. The glowing protective barrier didn't even take a hit from the rusty giant axe that suddenly accelerated and brought a heavy strike of light.

A dazzling array of talismans exploded into a burst of brilliant light.

The dazzling light lasted only a very short time before a man pulling out a small flag froze in place with a wide-eyed, incredulous expression.

After a brief pause, his body was torn in two and he collapsed limply.

A sudden burst of faint firelight illuminated the somewhat dim sewer.

Of course, Xiao Yang wasn't unscathed either; these random talismans were quite effective against Xiao Yang, whose magic resistance had dropped.

Health dropped by 100.

All things considered, the demonic cultivator in front of him was still somewhat troublesome.

Thinking this, Xiao Yang's expression became even more solemn as he looked at the demonic cultivators before him.

His expression turned serious, and the next moment, a green number suddenly appeared above his head, indicating that a recovery had occurred.

It restored 130 health points at once, not only recovering the health lost from that attack, but also leaving more.

The excess life force was injected into the healing hole in Xiao Yang's chest, making his injuries much easier to manage.

After a brief pause, the solemnity on Xiao Yang's face vanished, and a fierce look appeared on his face.

If the Dragon Hunter's helmet hadn't covered his face, obscuring his expression, such a change in expression would have clearly conveyed this meaning.

"That's it?"

Xiao Yang discovered a blind spot.

He found himself gaining an inexplicable amount of experience.

A level 43 mage player gave him nearly 20,000 experience points, steadily pushing his already halfway-finished experience bar forward a little.

How could a player who is only a level 43 lord give so much experience? Xiao Yang overlooked a very important point: the theme of this Rotten Lands co-op event is killing, which means that the experience he gains from killing these magic-based players will not be reduced in any way.

His eyes lit up immediately.

In other words, if we compare magic players of the same level to dungeon monsters, then these guys are definitely the most cost-effective type.

He raised his head, his gaze falling on the guys in front of him, and at that moment, his eyes seemed to light up.

He was worried about not finding a suitable place to find some suitable people to dedicate themselves to his epic journey.

His gaze fell upon these creatures before him, as if a dragon had discovered treasure.

This is an unequal battle.

Even though this group of demonic cultivators was the one with more people and higher levels.

However, they were no better than those corrupt guards when facing Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang had too many random effects on him.

The overwhelming superiority of equipment and attributes, damage reflection, high recovery, the fear of slaughter, insensitivity to attacks from illusory spirits, extremely high defense, equally exaggerated recovery, and life steal.

All this random stuff combined completely stunned the demonic cultivators.

To Xiao Yang, these guys weren't much stronger than ordinary dungeon monsters.

Torn, scarlet armor; a sharp, bizarre helmet that dangles and emits a crimson glow; a massive axe; the sound of footsteps.

In the sewers, a brutal massacre had just ended.

The story ends with Xiao Yang's victory.

If cultivators are polygonal players, then Xiao Yang is a hexagonal numerical monster.

Of course, there are some environmental factors involved in making it possible to achieve this.

If they weren't in the Rotten Land, but in a normal world, these guys would probably have given Xiao Yang a good beating.

But this is a land of decay, its surface overrun by bizarre monsters, cultists, and deformed beings, as is the sky.

Xiao Yang felt he hadn't killed enough.

These demonic cultivators and players were incredibly agile; after only killing five or six of them, these guys scattered and fled.

He couldn't keep up.

Xiao Yang needs to carefully evaluate whether using these guys to level up is appropriate or not.

He needs a skill that prevents him from flying.

Being able to fly is truly an innate advantage.

Although many of them were blasted apart on the spot by the silver light that streaked across the sky when they took off.

While the eyeballs that used to roam the skies were indeed gone from Clock Tower City, an extravagant magic-based anti-air system had emerged as a replacement.

Xiao Yang was unwilling to give up such a valuable source of experience.

"A few more, a few more!"

He seemed a little impatient, but that's normal, since he's almost level 30.

With a series of heavy footsteps, Xiao Yang ran wildly through the sewers.

So far, this massive invasion has not caused Xiao Yang any major trouble.

At least for players of this level of magic, it's not a problem.

Some fast-moving but reasonably valuable humanoid monsters have appeared in the Rotten Lands?

Is this the correct positioning?

No, we need to add a suffix: "a treasure chest monster that gives some surprises."

In a battle, Xiao Yang knocked down a fairly exquisite epic gemstone necklace.

As fellow players, Xiao Yang could simply pick up and use their items; there was no such thing as a drop rate.

It's definitely a treasure chest monster.

In the Rotten Lands, there have been some fast-moving, flying, but quite valuable mimics.

That's a perfect description!

The battle just now created quite a scene, but it was precisely this large-scale scene that led to this exaggerated spectacle.

Shortly after the battle began, terrifying shockwaves and all sorts of spells turned this section of the sewer, which served as the battlefield, upside down.

A chaotic and extremely dangerous array of spells flew about haphazardly.

Xiao Yang raised the rusty giant axe in his hand high and ran away as fast as he could.

In this scene, to be honest, Xiao Yang and these demonic cultivators didn't seem to be on the same level at all.

Although these demonic cultivators weren't as ethereal as Xiao Yang, they were still much better than him, constantly running wildly through the potholes.

A mad caveman's frantic pursuit of higher-dimensional creatures.

With no other means of maneuvering and no ability to fly, he simply ran wildly on the ground, raising his rusty giant axe high in a fierce expression.

The activation of the anti-aircraft magic cannon forced these guys to land.

The fierce-looking Xiao Yang chased them all over the place.

The huge commotion startled the corrupted inhabitants, and in an instant, the densely packed corrupted inhabitants began to surge.

Inside the sewers, demonic cultivators flew through the pipes, and Xiao Yang chased after them, while the corrupted residents chased after Xiao Yang.

The scene was extremely chaotic for a time, with everyone looking busy.
