Quest: Escort of supplies (2)
The climb of the mountain began.
Wang Cai was pushing the cart in the middle of the group, while the two tanks were in front, beside him were the mage and the healer in the back.
His eyesight was better than the other four's because of the Eagle's Eye passive skill.
"Caution!! The creatures are attacking." Both tanks scream at the same time as they see a group of five red rhinos charging toward them.
The rhinos' names were Mountain Rhinos. A common creature from these areas.
One of them raised the heavy shield while the other held the giant, heavy sword.
The mage started casting the skill while the healer uses the buffs to boost everyone's stats.
bang!!! bang!!!
The rhinos hit the two of them like it was a truck running over anyone, but their power wasn't enough to push the tanks back.
The difference between level 70 and 100 was too much. So it was normal for the tanks to hold.
slash!! slash!!
"Powerful Cut!!!"
"Sword Pierce!!!!"
The two swords slash the five creatures with great power, almost half of their HP was lost with just one attack.
"Multiple Fireballs!!!" The mage finished the conjuration.
Six fireballs were shot toward the three creatures and they exploded.
BOOOM!!! BOOOOM!!!! BOOOOM!!
HP has been reduced to zero.
Magic damage was always higher than physical damage because there were few creatures with high magic defense.
The remaining two were cut down and defeated by the tanks.
"You have leveled up"
Wang Cai received this message.
The five points were put into the VIT attribute.
The experience received from the creatures was enough to level up once.
If it wasn't in a group, it would be three levels.
"Let's continue." The tanks took the drops before moving on.
The first part of the mountain road was quite common and not too difficult to cross. Only creatures considered weak to the party.
Wang Cai was the workhorse pushing the cart with the supplies. It was extremely heavy.
Without enough STR, it would take time to move the cart and delay the journey.
It wasn't difficult because he had almost two hundred points in an STR stat, more than half of which was an extra stat. This was much higher than the stats shown.
The first road ended after five hundred meters. They were already about thirty meters high on the mountain.
A few more levels have been climbed.
Wang Cai reached level 63. And all thirty points were added to the AGI attribute and five to the VIT attribute.
Now the creatures would change and get harder.
"Watch out for those birds!!! They are the Cloud Birds!!" The tank screamed.
The creatures were birds, but the sizes were like a big car. The gray feathers with black stripes. The sharp beaks and claws. They were like eagles or vultures, but so much more scary and strong.
"Take this!!!!" The two tanks threw rocks with all their might in an attempt to draw the creatures down, but it wasn't easy.
The creatures dodged the rocks and attacked by moving their wings quickly to create blades of wind toward the tanks.
"Fireballs Multiples!!!" The mage used the same magic again to attack the six Cloud Birds at the same time.
BOOOOM!!!! BOOOM!!! BOOOOM!!!
The damage was high enough to reduce their HP by thirty percent, but it was just a fireball. If three fireballs hit two birds, both would have been defeated.
But the mage didn't do that because it would take too long to cast three spells. So he preferred to use this method.
QUAKKK!!!!!! QUAKKK!!!!! QUAKKKK!!!!
The sounds coming out of their mouths were similar to those of a strange duck.
The magic successfully attracted attention and forced the creatures to descend a little.
"AHH!!!!!"
"TAUNT!!!!"
The tanks use taunt abilities to taunt the Cloud Birds and force them to attack both targets.
slash!!! slash!!!
The swords cut quickly and defeat the creatures.
Long-ranged creatures had weaker defenses and less HP than melee creatures, so it was normal to be defeated more easily.
If there wasn't a ranged player in the group, they would never complete this quest.
Wang Cai just watched the group fighting the creatures and noticed that they had some group coordination, but there was still a long way to go to be a good enough group to overcome the more complicated challenges.
This part of the mountain only had Red Rhinos and Cloud Birds.
The worst was yet to come.
"We finally arrived at the mountainside. Looking at it from this height, I'm even scared." The group looked to the side of the road.
Their height was over fifty meters, so anyone with a fear of heights would feel a chill down their spine.
"Let's keep walking. We don't have time to waste"
"Let's go… AHH!!!!"
The two tanks were the first to go, but one of them fell into a hole in the ground and got stuck. He needed to be pulled up.
"A hidden trap? Is this serious??"
"That must be why the quest is rank A. The creatures here are weak, so there must be something on the mountain that makes the quest difficult. We have to be careful when walking. Hey, you'll be the first to walk, be a good tracker, and try to find the safest way." A tank spoke to him.
Wang Cai was doing nothing but pushing the cart and being a leech, so it was the best job for him.
"It's all right. You're helping me level up, so it's the least I could do."
Taking a thin longsword from his inventory, he began to grope the ground with form as if using a cane.
The places that cracked and broke were the traps.
The other four were surprised by Wang Cai's ingenious method. So he was back to being the workhorse again.
The tanks did the work of finding the right path without the traps.
Wang Cai didn't even need to do that because he knew where the traps were and which places not to go. But he wouldn't reveal it because it wasn't worth it.
The journey became safer, but only for a little while.
"CAUTION!!!!!!" One of the tanks screamed as it sensed a great danger approaching.
BOOOOM!!!! BOOOOOM!!! BOOOM!!!!
The group didn't even have a chance to defend themselves as fireballs rained down on them.
"HOLY SANCTUARY!!!"
The healer acts quickly without being frightened by the situation.
Several bright glow covers their bodies to regain lost HP.
"We are being attacked!!! FORMATION!!!!" The two tanks are at each end.
One in front and one behind, the healer protected the magician and the order, while Wang Cai stood aside to serve as a shield.
"Use the Light of Revelation!!!!" Wang Cai shouted to the healer and the mage.
Without hesitation, they use this skill.
Copper balls of a light circle around their bodies, revealing five assassins.
The five were already close enough to attack.
"ASSASSINS!!!!!!" The mage screamed in fear.
slash!!! slash!!!
Without hesitation, they attack the healer first. As long as he is not defeated, many problems will ensue.
