Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

woohoo-

Zhou Hongzhi brandished his spear and charged in first.

Beside him, Ye Cheng wore an excited smile and pointed to his sword.

"Sword, come!"

The longsword was drawn, its sharp light illuminating the dark mine.

boom!

The sword light flowed like a mighty river, slashing fiercely at the carapace of the Azure Crystal Scorpion.

But the next second, Ye Cheng's smile froze.

That sword strike, powerful enough to shatter the eighth sequence, only left a faint white mark on the scorpion's carapace.

"What?!"

The Azure Crystal Scorpion opened its scarlet eyes, looked at the ants that dared to trespass into its territory, and let out a deafening hiss.

"hiss--!!!"

The sound waves surged like a tidal wave, making everyone's eardrums ache. A purplish-black poisonous mist spread from its body, causing the crystal clusters on the cave walls to shatter wherever it passed.

"spread!"

Xiao Yun gave a low shout and waved his hand, scattering bottles of termite ash at everyone.

The ashes sizzled as they came into contact with the poisonous mist, and most of the poison was neutralized.

"efficient!"

The group's spirits lifted, and without further hesitation, they launched an attack according to the established plan.

Ye Cheng and Zhou Hongzhi, one on the left and one on the right, simultaneously slammed their longswords and spears at the scorpion's two giant pincers.

Clang! Clang!

Two loud bangs, and the two men stumbled back three steps.

"What incredible strength!"

Ye Cheng shook his numb arm, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

With the antidote available and no longer any worries, he fought with complete abandon.

As the scorpion's stinger lashed out, Wang Tianyuan's arrow intercepted it precisely, striking the patterns on its carapace.

The scorpion hissed angrily as its skill was interrupted, and its body shone with a brilliant purple light.

But before it could react, chanting and the activation of alchemical runes rang out.

The next second, various spells and alchemical bombs rained down, engulfing the Azure Crystal Scorpion's body.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Hiss hiss hiss!"

Amidst the flames of the explosion, the Azure Crystal Scorpion let out a mournful hiss, but under the saturation bombardment, it was unable to mount an effective response and could only passively defend itself.

Soon, the health of the Jade Pool Amethyst Scorpion dropped below 30%.

Xiao Yun's eyes flashed:

"Phase two is coming, everyone pay attention!"

Before the words were even finished, an invisible wave spread out.

[Crystal Core Sacrifice] Activated!

A chilling scraping sound rang out, and countless amethyst scorpions crawled out of the darkness, frantically approaching the Azure Pool Amethyst Scorpion.

Even under saturation bombardment, they have almost no chance of getting close, but at the last moment of their lives, they will detonate themselves, turning into a crystal core, which they entrust to the stronger amethyst scorpion beside them.

However, at the same time, bright summoning gates suddenly burst open, and countless summoned creatures rushed out, pouncing on the swarm of amethyst scorpions and desperately crushing each amethyst core.

A protracted battle ensued.

Soon, the ground was covered with foul-smelling blood and severed limbs, but there were not many amethyst cores needed for the [Crystal Core Sacrifice].

"hiss!!!"

Unable to activate its ability, the Azure Crystal Scorpion roared, a hint of human-like panic appearing in its eyes.

At the same time, Xiao Yun had already approached.

Invisible threads extended from nothingness, fixing the Azure Crystal Scorpion in place.

A myriad of magical halberds coalesced, carrying raging flames, and crashed down upon the Azure Crystal Scorpion of the Jade Pool like cannonballs.

Immediately following, a vast sword beam pierced through the air, precisely slashing at the weakest point of the Azure Crystal Scorpion's body.

boom!!!

The violent explosion echoed through the cave, and purple light intertwined with blood-red flames, illuminating everyone's faces.

When the light faded, the carapace of the Azure Crystal Scorpion was covered with dense cracks, and its health dropped below 20%.

But he's not dead yet.

It let out a mournful screech, dragging its broken body as it frantically crawled into the pool, attempting to unleash its final [Raging Crystal Spike].

Once it enters the pool, it restores 500% of life, and with the endless storm of crystal spikes, everyone will die.

"Stop it!"

Ye Cheng roared and slashed at its tail with his sword.

Zhou Hongzhi and Zhong Mo, along with other melee fighters, brandished their weapons and rammed into its side.

A barrage of skills, arrows, and alchemical bombs rained down on it.

But the scorpion went completely mad, risking injury to crawl towards the pool.

Half of its body was already submerged in the pool—

"Sacrifice for life, burn blood, forge of life, an undying epic!"

"All things are consumed by fire, but my blood burns eternally!"

As the dodecahedron rotates, a dazzling galaxy descends from the sky.

"Dormitory Group Outfits: My Daily Intelligence Updates": Explosive word-of-mouth and rave reviews!

"The stars bow their heads, illuminating my heart."

Xiao Yun slowly raised his crimson-gold eyes, and in his hand, blazing flames rose, seemingly about to burn the entire world to ashes.

"Listen to the dragon's roar!"

【Candle Dragon】!

Roar! ! !

The crimson dragon roared out and swallowed the scorpion whole.

The Azure Crystal Scorpion let out a final, mournful cry before its massive body crashed to the ground.

[Ding! Congratulations! You have defeated the Azure Crystal Scorpion (King-level)!]

[Resource Point: Amethyst Mine, Occupation Progress: 79%]

A system notification rang in his ears, but Xiao Yun didn't look at it.

He simply stared at the corpse, breathing heavily.

Behind him, everyone remained silent.

Moments later, deafening cheers erupted.

"It's all thanks to everyone."

As they spoke, three cards slowly appeared on the body of the Azure Crystal Scorpion.

The three cards shimmered with dazzling light, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Everyone's eyes gleamed with longing, even Ye Cheng and the other members of the Worry-Free Village Guild.

That's a drop from a King-level monster, enough to make an ordinary professional rise to the top in one step, and give a second-rate guild the strength to instantly become a first-rate guild.

But neither of them reached out to take it; they simply turned their heads and looked at Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun didn't stand on ceremony, stepped forward, and picked up three cards.

【效果3：使公会领地法力浓度上升10%，且使居住者每天体质属性+5、力量属性+5、智力属性+2】

……

Xiao Yun was overjoyed, but he didn't accept it immediately. Instead, he looked at Ye Cheng and the others and said:

"As agreed, our Ideal Kingdom will take the lion's share. This job change card is the most valuable, so we'll accept it without hesitation. You can take the other two."

As he spoke, he handed over the amethyst set and the amethyst vein building card.

Ye Cheng smiled and pushed his hand away:

"President Xiao, although I, Ye, am a person who values ​​profit, I am not ungrateful."

"Everyone knows that without the antidote for the crystallization disease that you brought, we would have been defeated on the first floor. How could we have killed a king-level enemy and obtained such a good reward?"

"So stop being so dramatic and just keep it. There's more than one King-level monster. If we encounter another one in the future, you can help us hunt it down."

After Ye Cheng finished speaking, Zhou Hongzhi, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement:

"Minister Ye is right. Even if it's distributed according to contribution, Chairman Xiao should get this. If you really don't go on purpose, just leave us a little extra soup later."

"Haha, okay, then we'll take less of the profits from the amethyst mine."

Xiao Yun nodded and put all three cards away.

Some people were left to divide the valuable materials from the Azure Crystal Scorpions, while the others prepared to split into several groups to wipe out the remaining Azure Crystal Scorpions in the mine and completely take over the mine.

At the same time, a pop-up window suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

[Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully defeated the King-level monster - Azure Crystal Scorpion, achieving the first kill of a King-level monster in the Ancient City area!]

[First kill reward for King-level monster is being distributed...]

[The news of the first kill will be announced to all surviving players in the Ancient City area in three minutes. Players can choose to make it public or remain anonymous...]
