[Skills: Tear Claw Strike, Shadow Strike, Wild Roar, Blood Thirst, Blood Frenzy]
"It can't even summon minions, what a piece of trash." Su Yu shook his head helplessly.
Since we can't grind skill points as easily as before, let's finish this quickly and clear Hell difficulty.
Let's see if there's a chance to obtain a fragment of the mysterious key.
Finding the other two mysterious key fragments is his most important task right now.
After all, this involves the opportunity to unlock the only hidden profession at the God level, so it's no exaggeration to take it seriously.
As for farming skill points, there will be plenty of opportunities to do so later.
Soul-Severing Arrow!
With a thought, Su Yu sent three green Soul-Severing Arrows flying through the air.
boom! boom! boom!
-85356! (Critical Hit)
-85356! (Critical Hit)
-85356! (Critical Hit)
In an instant, the Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commander's health bar was emptied, and his massive body crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
[Successfully defeated the level 7 Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Grand Commander (Iron-tier BOSS), gaining 2100 experience points, 3 silver coins, and 500 copper coins.]
[A global announcement is coming soon. Should I hide my nickname?]
"No hiding!" Su Yu made his choice without hesitation.
Immediately, six world announcements rang in the ears of all players on Blue Star.
[World Announcement: Congratulations to Yu Huang, player of the Holy Dragon Empire, for becoming the first player to clear the Dark Forest Depths dungeon on Normal difficulty. Rewards include: Equipment Upgrade Stone (Diamond) *1, Gold *1, Reputation Points *100.] x3
[World Announcement: Congratulations to Yu Huang, a player from the Holy Dragon Empire, for becoming the first player to solo clear the Dark Forest Depths dungeon on Normal difficulty. Rewards include: Costume Enhancement Stone (Gold Grade) *1, Gold Coins *1, Reputation Points *100.] x3
……
"Ugh! The Emperor Yu is spamming the chat again. Can't you give me a break?"
"Did the Emperor of the Universe find the location of the level 7 dungeon so quickly?"
"It seems that the first-clear rewards for the three dungeons in the beginner village will soon be all claimed by the powerful Yu Huang."
"Emperor Yu can even solo a diamond-level boss, so clearing the remaining two dungeons will be no problem for him at all."
"Is the Emperor Yu playing a hacked version? Why is it so difficult for me to even kill a level 2 monster?"
"Hey everyone, just bear with it a little longer. Once the Emperor Yu clears the last two dungeons, we won't be bombarded with messages anymore."
"I think it will take at most two hours for Boss Yu to calm down."
"..."
Countless players of the Holy Dragon Empire were discussing the matter, having become completely numb to the world announcements.
Whose world announcements go off several times every ten minutes or so? It's even more frequent than my alarm clock for work.
……
In the Dark Forest dungeon on Normal difficulty.
"It's alright, at least they're all usable items." Su Yu nodded slightly.
What he fears most is the world announcement reward, which might give him something he can't use.
He had previously cleared the Goblin Plains dungeon on normal difficulty and was rewarded with a gold-tier level 5 accessory and a gold-tier costume.
If clearing the Dark Forest Deeps dungeon on normal difficulty rewards him with a level 7 gold accessory and a gold costume, he'd be ecstatic.
After all, he already had a gold-level costume, and it had been upgraded to level 7.
Fashion attributes cannot be stacked, so unless there is a fashion item with better attributes, he would never replace the Wind Feather Cloud Robe.
As for level 7 gold-grade accessories, there's even less need for them; at most, their stats are only slightly higher than the Speed Ring.
It might even be less useful than the Speed Ring.
Fortunately, Su Yu was lucky; the rewards from this wave of world announcements were all things he could use.
With a thought, Su Yu began to examine the specific attributes of the equipment upgrade stone.
[Equipment Upgrade Stone (Diamond Grade): Can be directly fused with growth-type equipment to upgrade the equipment's grade.]
[Note 1: Once fused with equipment, it cannot be removed.]
[Note ②: This can only be fused with growth-type equipment; ordinary equipment lacks sufficient potential and cannot be fused.]
[Tip 1: Three Diamond-grade Equipment Upgrade Stones can be combined into one Star-grade Equipment Upgrade Stone.]
[Tip 2: To upgrade a Diamond-level growth-type equipment to Star-level, you need to fuse three Diamond-level equipment upgrade stones.]
"Not bad, not bad, this is a good product." Su Yu nodded in satisfaction.
As long as he has enough equipment upgrade stones, his growth-type equipment can continue to upgrade.
Three diamond-grade equipment upgrade stones can upgrade a diamond-grade growth-type equipment to star-grade.
If the pattern remains unchanged, nine diamond-grade equipment upgrade stones can upgrade a Star-grade growth-type equipment to Silver Moon grade.
Anyway, there's no need to worry about the equipment upgrade stones being of low quality, as they can be upgraded through fusion.
As Su Yu pondered this, he walked toward the corpse of the Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commander.
Soon, Su Yu arrived at the white orb of light that the Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commander had released and picked it up.
You have obtained 2 pieces of Black Iron-grade equipment.
You have obtained 2 basic random attribute gems.
Immediately afterwards, Su Yu went to the dungeon completion treasure chest and opened it directly.
You have obtained 2 pieces of Black Iron-grade equipment.
You have obtained 1 basic random attribute gems.
You have received 5 silver coins.
"Alright, something's better than nothing. I reckon these few pieces of black iron-grade equipment can sell for a hundred or two silver coins." Su Yu shook his head.
As for the basic random attribute gems, Su Yu had no intention of selling them.
He also plans to acquire some attribute gems later to synthesize higher-level gems.
After all, given the quality of his equipment, embedding low-level gems in it would be too beneath him.
Moreover, it doesn't add any attributes and offers almost no help in improving Su Yu's strength.
"After this round of dungeon runs, I stacked 364 layers of Life-Devouring Mark, which increased my health by 3640 points."
"Although I didn't gain any skill points, it's not a complete loss," Su Yu thought to himself.
The life points added by the Life-Devouring Mark are calculated separately and do not benefit from percentage-based life point bonuses; otherwise, Su Yu could have gained even more life points.
However, Su Yu only spent less than five minutes completing this round of the dungeon.
In such a short time, to gain more than 3,600 health points is already quite good.
It should be noted that at this stage, apart from Su Yu, even the tankiest player might not have more than 3,600 health points.
It can be said that Su Yu is now on a completely different level from other players; his development speed far exceeds everyone's expectations.
"Not bad, let's keep practicing on Hard difficulty!" Su Yu smiled.
Dungeons are indeed a great thing; even just stacking marks on the Life Devourer is more efficient than grinding monsters outside.
And the efficiency isn't just a little bit higher, it's much higher!
Soon, a white light enveloped Su Yu, and he instantly disappeared from his spot.
Upon returning to Gale Plains, Su Yu didn't linger and immediately selected the Hard difficulty level.
After a bout of dizziness, he found himself back in this dark, dense forest.
