Traveling through the game world

It seemed that Huttonmar, ravaged and destroyed by the Black Nightmare since the Age of Destruction, had never been so bustling. All the monster armies that were not participating in the siege were surging towards the desperate chessboard.

How big is Huttonmar, the former economic center of Arad? Lian Yang still has no idea, because according to his gaming experience, he is now almost at the final stage of the City of Doom in the game.

However, Lian Yang had only explored a small part of the vast Huttonmar ruins. But even this small part had already impressed him with its grandeur.

Along the way, all sorts of monsters swarmed in, but with their equipment, strength, and teamwork, the massive monster army was just a way for Lian Yang and his companions to gain experience and money.

In truth, the battles in the Ruins of Hendon Myre were exceptionally rewarding for Lian Yang. Aside from the sheer number of monsters that made it impossible for Lian Yang and his companions to kill them all, the Black Hat Thieves, who were classified as monsters in the game but as adventurers in the real world of Dungeon Fighter Online, provided the four of them with a massive amount of experience.

Lian Yang's takeaway from this period of battles was that he was exhausted during the fights, but felt incredibly refreshed afterward. The feeling of his strength increasing rapidly was simply mesmerizing for him.

Then there's the Blood Queen Dio. When she was still the Black Giant Scorpion Moss, she was already one of the strongest monsters in the ruins of Huttonmar. But as intelligent as she was, she knew very well that there were many extremely powerful beings among the remaining residents of Huttonmar, beings that even she could only look up to now.

So, being as clever as it is, it has always remained hidden, rarely taking the initiative to attack. Therefore, Albert and Paris had two main concerns: protecting the residents and being restrained by Hyde. In any case, they didn't cause it much trouble.

However, after being resurrected by the Black Nightmare, the Blood Queen Dio became ambitious, even believing she possessed the power to conquer the world. She even dared to launch a siege against the City of Doom.

Its frenzied actions clearly agitated Albert and the others. Albert didn't say it, but he knew that as long as Hyde returned, he would come out and kill the giant scorpion even if Yang wasn't there.

Unfortunately, the Black Nightmare resurrected it and changed it; though still intelligent, it could no longer discern the truth of the situation. Looking at the endless stream of monsters surging before it, it was still immersed in the joy of unifying the ruins of Huttonmar and dreaming of conquering the world.

Along the way, amidst the frenzied monster army, Lian Yang and his three companions finally arrived at the entrance to the village of Despair Chess Game. The journey wasn't long, nor was it particularly dangerous. However, it was definitely hard work.

"Phew!" After slashing down a monster with his sword, Lian Yang saw the village filled with chess pieces and let out a long sigh of relief, saying, "I'm exhausted, but we've finally arrived."

Alice hurriedly said, "Let's go! This village looks quite large. Let's hurry in and find that big scorpion before it gets away again."

"Hahahaha...!" Just then, the Blood Queen Dio's maniacal laughter rang out as she arrogantly declared, "Run? Why should I run? You pitiful human insects, I, the Blood Queen Dio, kindly spared your lives. But you chose the path to hell when there was one to heaven!"

At this moment, the Blood Queen Dio completely forgot that it wasn't that she let Lian Yang and the others go, but that she was so frightened by the strength of Lian Yang's group of four that she fled to the Despair Chess Game.

"Pfft..." Baron couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of spittle, mocking, "Then I really have to thank you for sending us those 20-odd elites. They dropped a lot of good equipment for us. Are you going to reward us with a few mini-bosses this time and then spare our lives?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Clara, the puppet queen beside the Blood Queen Dio, suddenly changed her expression and felt a pang of regret. Thinking back, the Blood Queen Dio hadn't come to conquer her at all; he had clearly been fleeing from her with a specific purpose.

For a moment, the Doll Queen Clara couldn't help but feel a little regretful for handing over the Soul Fragment to the Blood Queen Dio so early. Now, she could only fight to the death with Lian Yang and the others, because if the Blood Queen Dio died, she, the Doll Queen Clara, could not survive either.

Unlike the Puppet Queen Clara, Lieding Hughman knew Lian Yang; in fact, his elite squad had been wiped out by Lian Yang. Of the two oddballs and one person, if we were to discuss who harbored the greatest hatred for Lian Yang, it would undoubtedly be Lieding Hughman.

However, having a deeper understanding of Lian Yang's current strength, Lieding Hughman immediately hid behind the Blood Queen Dio upon discovering that the adventurer team sent by the City of Misfortune was led by Lian Yang.

Unfortunately, the sharp-eyed Lian Yang spotted this traitor who was originally standing with the Doll Queen Clara and the Blood Queen Dio at first glance, and couldn't help but shout, "Leding Schumacher, your old friend is here, why are you hiding? What, you've become a traitor and are afraid to show your face?"

Seeing the Black Hat Thieves coexisting peacefully with the monsters on the way to the Chess Game of Despair, and even occasionally cooperating with them, Lian Yang became certain that Lieding Hughman must also be at the Chess Game of Despair, and that he could take down all the enemies in one fell swoop.

Sure enough, Lian Yang spotted Liedinghuman appearing alongside the two monster bosses from afar. How could Lian Yang let him hide? He continued, "You idiot, your father is at least a high-ranking noble of the Empire. I think Barn would be happy to discuss this with His Majesty about you getting involved with these monsters like this."

Even the Delos Empire has zero tolerance for monsters corrupted by the Black Nightmare. You can experiment with how to use the Black Nightmare, and even experiment with using monsters to grant people greater power. But directly colluding with monsters is unacceptable.

As for someone like Liedinghuman, who privately recruited a band of thieves and colluded with monsters to plunder villages, once this was exposed, even his father would not escape death.

Sure enough, Lieding Hughman's expression changed drastically as he said, "Hmph! Sooner or later we will wipe out all of you damned knights, but you won't live to see it!"

Lieding Heuman knew, of course, that Lian Yang was incredibly powerful at this moment, but the endless stream of monsters gave him enough confidence to keep Lian Yang here. Of course, not keeping him was also not an option; if even one member of Lian Yang's group of four were to leave, it would be a huge threat to the Heuman family.

There was no point in saying more when they were already mortal enemies. The Blood Queen Dio fiercely slammed her massive pincers into the ground and roared, "Kill all four of these humans!"

"Slow Healing, Guardian Badge, Blessing of Honor!" Arthur's three basic blessings were as swift as ever. Before the Blood Queen Dio could even finish speaking, Arthur had already bestowed the basic blessings upon Lian Yang and the other two, as well as himself.

"Blood Rage!"2 is a basic skill, and both Lian Yang and Baron chose to activate it immediately.

"Berserk!" 2. Usually, only one of Lian Yang and Baron would activate Berserk, but today the pressure was too great, and the two of them activated the Berserk buff at the same time.

"Breaking Limit Weapon!" Of course, Lian Yang and Baron also achieved great results, tacitly activating Blood Frenzy together and then simultaneously unleashing Berserk. However, Lian Yang still had one more Breaking Limit Weapon than Baron.

The real reason Lian Yang has always been so powerful is that he's a dual-class adventurer, able to benefit from both the Berserker's bonuses and the Sword Master's enhancements. Not to mention, he can simultaneously enjoy two of the strongest buffs in Dungeon Fighter Online—Berserk and Weapon Mastery.

With the same equipment, while someone else's sword strike deals 100 damage, Lian Yang can deal at least 220 damage. Dual classes are definitely not as simple as damage plus one; in fact, as the level increases, the improvement brought by dual classes will become more and more obvious.

"Potential Burst!" The pressure from the two bosses forced Alice, who rarely uses buffs, to decisively cast another Potential Burst on herself.

After the paladin finished applying his buffs, everyone else followed suit with their own buffs. The four members of Lianyang stared intently at the colossal Blood Queen Dio.

Lian Yang shouted decisively, "Let's fight!"
