“Oh my, Big Brother, you’re finally back.” Dazed by the sight, Li Yao immediately jumped up from the campfire by the first boss’s hall.

“Uncle, you are too slow. Did you know that the clearing competition has already seen teams reach the second boss? You are so inefficient”, complained Da Vinci.

“It’s okay, we’re just letting them scout for us,” Li Yao responded nonchalantly.

Qin Feng Yi remarked, “Haven’t you guys noticed? He’s doing this on purpose.”

“What, on purpose?” a curious Da Vinci asked.

“Yes, with his personality, if he were serious about claiming the first kill, he would not be slow and relaxed,” Qin Feng Yi spoke helplessly.

“Dude, did Xiayao really tell the truth?” Sky-and-Sea inquired.

Sister Li mused, “I think I know his plan now, this move is quite ruthless.”

“What are you guys talking about? Are you making fun of me because I’m young and don’t understand?” Ding Dong complained.

“Let me ask you, if you were to participate in a carnival competition, fight through bloodshed and battles, win the first elite mode kill, and receive the cheers of the audience, would you be happy?” Sister Li asked.

“Of course, I’d be happy. But we can only take the first kill, the cheers are not reserved for us,” Da Vinci grumbled.

“The key here is, at this juncture, a wild team suddenly claims the first kill in a master mode. How would you react?” Sister Li pressed on.

“I’d be awfully embarrassed. I’d be boiling with rage, wishing I could kill someone,” Ding Dong shrugged.

“Yes, indeed. But it’s a carnival. Even with the embarrassment, the ceremony needs to continue, with cheers echoing throughout,” Sister Li smiled faintly.

“Damn, that’s so ruthless!” Sky-and-Sea gaped, coming to a bitter realization about the dire situation: “Dude, let me know when I offend you so I can dig my own grave.”

Sky-and-Sea’s words provoked laughter, swiftly moving the conversation along. Only a few astute individuals knew today would be a tough day — a very tough day for many.

“Alright, we can start the live broadcast now. Let’s get started,” Li Yao said and began to lead the way.

“Hey, Big Brother, you haven’t told us how to deal with the ghost problem yet,” Ding Dong followed after Li Yao, asking.

“Just follow me.” Li Yao replied.

Li Yao reached the second section of the cave and immediately crushed a Shining Fruit, the small sparks began to float around the cave.

Having drunk the Night Vision Potion, everyone could clearly see the situation within the cave with the presence of these sparks.

“Keep going.”

One Shining Fruit could roughly cover several dozen yards. Li Yao directly smashed the second Shining Fruit.

Everyone could now see the bat lurking on the cave ceiling. As the light continued to spread, specks of dust formed a distinct silhouette on the ghosts, floating in the cave.

“Wow, this works,” Guardian Angel was wordless.

“Yes, it does work. Let’s go. Fruit, the ghosts are mana absorbers, this time you are in charge of the bats,” Li Yao directed.

“Alright,” Fruit Knight nodded.

A paladin, much like the hunter, is also dependent on mana.

“All classes without mana and Xiayao’s Skeleton Stone Demon will attack the ghost, everyone else will attack the bat,” Li Yao pondered for a moment before issuing his orders.

There are differences between ghosts and shades. Ghosts immune to many physical damages while shades immune to magical damages also absorb mana.

In accordance with Li Yao’s direction, Big Stone launched a charge at the ghost, then Sky-and-Sea and Shadow Dance began a vigorous fight with the ghost.

Meanwhile, Li Yao managed to lure down the bat with a strong crossbow, and Fruit Knight managed to transfer the aggro with just two spells.

Equipped with a new shield, Fruit Knight significantly increased in strength. With robust armor, physical immunity and a wide range of magic resistance, Fruit Knight was now harder than ever.

The cave bats could use abilities like Lightning Ball causing lightning damage, but because everyone’s strength had increased similar to the mobs, they were naturally able to handle it easily.

Of course, what we are describing as “mobs” are enemies even stronger than the Silver Elites encountered.

Generally speaking, as long as the correct method and strategies were found and the equipment met certain requirements, the dungeon mobs would basically not pose much of a hindrance.

For example, this time, without the Shining Fruits, getting through this part would be quite difficult, but with the Shining Fruits, this journey was even easier than the route to the first boss.

“Dude, I really admire you. I can’t believe you came up with this idea. Initially, when someone asked if I should stock up on Shining Fruits, I figured it was a toy and turned it down. Now, it’d be nice to even have one or two batches in the guild warehouse,” Sky-and-Sea smiled bitterly.

They had already consumed about twenty fruits but still hadn’t seen the boss, showing the heavy consumption of Shining Fruits.

“Hehe, you’ve exposed yourself, didn’t you? You slacked off in the offense just now, you must be privately messaging your guild to prepare for the auction,” Li Yao hypothesized.

“Cough cough, pioneers should naturally reserve some good stuff,” Sky-and-Sea said awkwardly.

But it’s not just him. All the clubs and guilds are watching this clearing. They were happy when they saw the team stuck. They were disappointed when they saw the Shining Fruits solve the problem, but soon they woke up and hastened to contact people for Shining Fruits.

However, to their disappointment, the auction house was empty. The previously unpopular Shining Fruits were now completely out of stock.

“Hey, you’ve been gone for quite some time, you didn’t buy up all the Shining Fruits, did you?” Sky-and-Sea asked suspiciously.

“Hahaha, Sea-Bro, you figured it out! When I thought of the solution with the Shining Fruits, naturally, I thought of the business opportunity as well, so I had a friend help me sweep through the auction house in the Dark Camp, Neutral Camp, and the Light Faction. The Shining Fruits were all sold out,” Li Yao cackled.

“Damn, you’re ruthless. You’re rich but you didn’t even think about letting me make money with you,” Sky-and-Sea looked at Li Yao with disdain.

“Sigh, I had no choice, we have to develop the guild so we needed the money,” Li Yao sighed. “For the development of the guild, I am willing to act as a merchant once.”

“Uncle, have some shame,” Da Vinci, who was healing, suddenly said, “You’re too wicked, monopolizing the goods from all three camps. You’re hogging everything.”

“It doesn’t count as hogging. Actually, someone started buying Shining Fruits not long ago, I just don’t know who it is.”

Of course, Li Yao wouldn’t admit that person was him.

“Never doubt the sensitivity of a merchant’s nose,” Sister Li laughed.

“You’ve made more with this move than I’ve earned all these years,” Feng Yi said as she continued to deal damage.

“No way, I won’t convert a single copper coin into credit points. Developing the guild is what I need to do…” Li Yao mused.
