Seven Ears sighed as Lin Jie picked up the failed potions .

“That’s some good stuff!”
“What?”
“This is really good . ” Lin Jie’s eyes lit up . “Seven Ears, how did you make them? Any more of them?”
Seven Ears was stunned, and he said slowly, “No… I can’t control how these things mutate . ”
“That’s a pity . ” Lin Jie packed all he failed potions into his bag .
Seven Ears was good at potion making . Since potions and poisons were about the same, he was good at making poison too! All of these failed potions were indeed good at playing some mischief!
Seven Ears stared at him . “What? Why is boss acting this way? Mutation failure is a good thing now?”
“Keep all the mutated potions for me in the future,” reminded Lin Jie .
A notification came in the email . The blueprint for Self-Combusted Spider had arrived . Lin Jie turned and left the shop . He then bought 20 stacks of Grey Iron and 10 stacks of Mechanical Part using one gold coin before rushing to the dungeon .
“Hey bro, wanna sell some points?” A bandit came up and asked smilingly . “1 point for 1$ only . I’ll buy all of them!”
Lin Jie immediately spotted him as a Profiteers who made money with the price difference . Not everyone knew that City of Light Central Auction House was buying points, so some people would camp outside the dungeon and buy points at a price slightly below market price . They would then sell it to the auction house . Surely they would not lose a cent .
The bandit looked at Lin Jie and said, “If you have a lot, I can offer you 1 . 1$ . ”
Lin Jie looked at the points he had — 360,000 of them in total! These points had drained all his savings for the past one month .
“Sorry, I’m not selling . ” Lin Jie smiled and changed the buying value in the auction house from 1 . 3 to 1$ .
“If you need to sell points remember to find me . ” The bandit realized that the deal was not going to happen and left with a chinchin .
Back into the dungeon, everyone stood up .
“Come, let’s do this!” Lin Jie passed the blueprint and materials to Zheng Ziliang .
Zheng Ziliang took a look and smiled . He said, “Piece of cake . ”

He had learned the Dwarf Engineering and Goblin Engineering . With both skills in hand, the success rate and speed for making items were higher than normal Engineering players . Zheng Ziliang had studied about bombs recently, and he had even started to draw his own blueprint . He was talented in that area .
“Done!”
A mini spider ring was made! Zheng Ziliang caressed it, rendering the team speechless! 10 two-meter-tall spiders with hatred in their eyes rushed for their necks with their sharp fangs!
“Arhhhh!” Qiu Yuan was scared and started to throw Dark Speech Spell everywhere .
Zheng Ziliang quickly canceled the illusion effect . The hideous spiders disappeared, and they transformed into small spiders crawling on the ground . They had extremely swollen abdomens for explosion purposes .
All these spiders had attributes of 1 .
Qiu Yuan was still in shock . She was afraid of many animals, and spiders happened to be one of them . She almost fainted when the hairy-legged spiders appeared in front of her for real .
“Come on Qiu Yuan . Let me made you a good-looking one . ” Zheng Ziliang smiled and threw her a spider ring with a small ruby on top .
“No!” Qiu Yuan smashed it away with a pale face .
Netherblue patted on her shoulder and said, “It’s okay, these are all fake . Good girl, if you are scared, do you want to offline first?”
“No!” Qiu Yuan shook her head . “I think you guys won’t make it without me…”
Bu Yi smiled . “What a cute stubborn girl . ”
Zheng Ziliang was a little embarrassed, he had failed the following production three consecutive times . He quickly adjusted himself and made a spider ring for everyone .
“Before usage, just add some mutated potion into the spider, and the Self-Combusted Spider will go BOOM!”
“Great, let’s go!”
They were ready! The team went to the Devourer again with the same triangle position . The initial attributes of the Devourer caused it to be beaten badly by the team again . Two disgusting tongues were moving around but with an extremely low attack .
In just 10 seconds, its HP were reduced by 40,000!
“Prepare to summon!” Lin Jie stuffed a big bottle of failed Health Potion into the spider . A high-quality Health Potion, which was one of the luxurious items for now, could recover 800 HP . Each one could cost about 3 silver coins!

However, the failed potion would deduct 100 maximum HP from the user .
“Creak…”
A dense pack of spiders reappeared! The two-meter spiders circled around the Devourer . Qiu Yuan’s lips were white, and her face was obviously pale . Any “feminine” girl who stood so close to the spiders that were magnified to such a point would have such response .
“Self-Combusted Spider, I’m gonna eat you!” The Devourer named the target and swallowed it .
Boom—
-1,541!
The spider exploded!
“Success!” The team was delighted .
By the time the Devourer used its skill again, there would be dozens of spiders on the ground . Hence, the Devour skill was rendered useless . The Devourer’s advantage had failed it badly! It was killed quickly by the team!
“I’m… hungry . ”
The huge body of the Devourer fell on the ground and started to shrink . It became a small bat .
It could eat a mountain-size of food with such a small body? Foodies were terrifying .
—’You have killed the Devourer . You have received 80,000 EXP . ’
As an elite with 400,000 HP, the EXP was indeed worth its huge body . Not only that, it dropped a book shard .
[Broken Skill Book Shard]: 1/10 . It seemed to have the word “devour” on it .
“A skill for Pet Hunters . ” Lin Jie threw the book to Lost Camel and smiled . “Let’s try our best and complete the skill book . ”
“Sure!” Unexpected Childe smiled . He was stunned a moment later and said coldly, “Who the hell will help this guy with his skill?”
With the Self-Combusted Spider, it was unusually easy for them to kill the Devourers! Although sometimes the skill would be used on them, they managed to kill the monsters . They had gained a fairly good amount of EXP after a while . Lin Jie was almost level 20!
The main mission dungeon gave a lot of EXP .
However, the Devourers were tanks, and their skill was really irritating . The team had to concentrate throughout the battles . When they reached about the third quarter, some small and big mistakes started to surface, and Qiu Yuan had died three times .
As a girl who was afraid of spiders, it was indeed commendable that Qiu Yuan had made it this far . If it was another weaker girl, she would probably be offline by now .
“Water, I’m gonna eat you!” The spiders did not work, and Water was swallowed!
“Dejected Night, I’m gonna eat you!”
“Bro!”
Mixed Breathless used Intervene and rushed before Dejected Night and stared at the Devourer’s tongue . Then, Dejected Night made a huge mistake . He ran right into the tongue while he should run below the Devourer’s body .
Pia! He was swallowed!
The attributes of the Devourer increased again . It used Blizzard!
“Darn it . ” Lin Jie drank a bottle of Berserker Potion, and his Broken Blade was glowing in red .
Blood Soul Multi-Slash!
-3,256! (Critical Hit)
-3,200! (Critical Hit!)
With the two critical hits, the Devourer was killed, and its head was cut off .
Bu Yi revived the two of them and rubbed her eyes . She took out Forest Fruit and distributed them to everyone .
“That’s it for today,” said Lin Jie . It had been seven hours since they had killed the first Devourer . With the time taken to clear the Shadow Area, the team had fought for 12 hours non-stop . It was indeed tedious on the mind .
The main mission dungeon was very difficult . One could not just clear it with determination .
“No . ” Netherblue’s eyes were a bit red due to exhaustion . She said stubbornly, “What if people catch up with us?”
Lin Jie frowned and said in a deep voice, “No one is made of steel . Go offline to rest . Meet you back in 12 hours!”
“Big Sis, I can’t take it anymore . Sorry . ” Qiu Yuan went offline straight away . The spiders had terrified her .
Lin Jie said in an angry tone, “Offline! Everyone! How can we clear the dungeon in such a state? Offline NOW!”
Dejected Night looked at the forum and said in a soft voice, “All the guilds are stuck at the first Boss . We have a huge advantage . Don’t worry, let’s rest first . C’mon . ”
Star Kill and the rest nodded and got offline .
Netherblue bit on her lips and got offline too .
Lin Jie opened the dungeon page and saved the dungeon progress using 100 points to prevent any data loss before going offline too .
After half an hour .
Netherblue went online again and approached the second Boss with her Explosive Longsword . She had a simple plan . She had to help the team to gather as much information on the second Boss as possible . Even if she was instkilled, she could learn some of the Boss’ skills .
She did not realize the two shadows at her back .
Lin Jie and Zheng Ziliang exchanged a look and shook their heads .
“Hello? Is it Bu Yi? Go take off Netherblue’s helmet and ask her to sleep!” said Lin Jie angrily .
Good health was a prerequisite for work . Why did they need a girl to work so hard?
From her position, Netherblue could nicely see the Boss . She took a deep breath and prepared to check out the Boss’ skills with her life . Suddenly, it got dark, and the power was off…
After opening her eyes, she could see Bu Yi standing in front of her with her arm crossed angrily . “Go . Sleep . Now . ”
Lin Jie and Zheng Ziliang exchanged a look and nodded their heads .
Right then, the chairmen of the guilds that were stuck at the first Boss received a message .
“I am from Savage Blade . ”
“I have a video on the clearance of the first Boss . Not sure if you are interested?”
