Chapter 812 New And Upgraded

After leaving the base, Luna arrived at the entrance of the first dungeon in a jiffy. Right off the bat, Liam could see that the dungeon was different now.

Earlier the portal was a pale green color, but now it was a bright emerald color. Even looking from the outside, it gave off a vibe that it was richer and denser in mana.

"We might be in for a ride." Liam clenched his fist in excitement. He couldn't wait to start fighting as he cracked his knuckles and stepped forward.

Luna followed suit and repeated the same movements, but it only looked cute and adorable when the fox did the same. As her three tails swayed in the wind, the two of them disappeared into the dungeon.

Almost instantly, a thick waft of mana a.s.saulted Liam. He could lick the energy in the air. He looked around observing the surroundings of the dungeon.

It was quite similar to the previous one. Another cavern network with rocky sand walls on all sides. However, the pa.s.sageways seemed to be wider and taller.

There was also something else in the air, a palpable tension. Though he was standing in a similar place as before, this time it felt completely different. Liam's gaze hardened as he traced his fingers on the wall, feeling the toughness.

Just what changes did the dungeon undergo?

Before he could finish the thought, loud guttural growls echoed in the pa.s.sageway, and something big and heavy thudded in the distance.

The footsteps grew closer and louder as big figures started to emerge from the shadows. A dozen giant orcs stood in front of Liam, grunting and snorting.

And these were not just ordinary orcs. Liam could tell that much from just looking at them.

"Inspect."

[Orc Elite; Level 61]

The orcs growled and rushed forward, not waiting for Liam to examine them in peace. Every single step they took rumbled across the cavern and right now they were stampeding toward him with huge maces in their hands.

The weapon looked very heavy and st.u.r.dy just like its wielder. The spikes on the mace seemed to be made from some sort of special material. They had a reddish glow to them.

Apart from the mace, their huge bodies were also covered in other armor which also had the same spikes lined on them.

Just judging from the looks these had to be at least Magical grade or even Unique grade and they definitely boosted the strength of these brutes giving them an intimidating aura.

Liam couldn't see beyond this point with his current [Inspect] skill. However, it was very clear to him that these orcs were completely different from the orcs he had fought back against in the first version of the same dungeon.

Even their skin tone was different as the other orcs were light brown in color while these were dark brown in color. They were also taller and a lot more muscular with dense blood veins winding like snakes around these thick muscles.

"Wyverns!" Liam directly summoned his strongest unit for clas.h.i.+ng with these orcs. He wanted to gauge the strength of these creatures before unleas.h.i.+ng the smaller guys.

His soul minions were strong but the only drawback they had was their ability to regenerate. It was not infinite so it was best to avoid uncertain situations and his gut feeling told him that this was one.

The wyverns swiftly materialized as soon as Liam commanded and the draconian beasts stood tall against the huge elite orcs. They not only matched the 12 feet height of the orc elites but they were also equally threatening as they stared down upon the inferior creatures.

However, unlike the previous opponents, these orcs surprisingly did not shake and trembled on seeing the wyverns. Instead, they clashed with even more gusto.

Their growls dripped with bloodthirstiness as they swung their maces against the soul minions without any fear in their big reddened eyes.

The wyverns naturally did not back down and blocked and parried with them using their claws and tails.

There were fourteen orcs in total and only ten wyvern soul minions but the three-headed wyvern was able to handle more than three by itself. There were also two more wyverns that handled two orc elites each.

SMAs.h.!.+ RUMBLE!

SMAs.h.!.+ RUMBLE!

The fight raged on and to Liam's surprise, the two sides almost clashed evenly.

But this was only for a few seconds after which the three-headed wyvern opened his mouth and flooded the whole cavern with mana-rich attacks.

The other wyverns followed the example of the leader as one by one all of them started casting their magic attacks.

Fire, ice, lightning, earthen spikes, and razor-sharp winds a.s.saulted the now crowded pa.s.sageway sending the orc elites into a frenzy.f????e??ov?l.???

The protective armor they were wearing seemed to repel the attacks to some extent but after a couple of seconds they quickly gave out. They couldn't handle the intensity of the draconian attacks.

Though the orcs were able to match the physical strength of the soul minions, their magic resistance was still inferior. Perhaps they might be able to withstand the magic attacks from other people but the intensity of draconian magic was slightly stronger.

The attacks started piling up and they started losing chunks of their health. Soon the fight became one-sided and the orc elites started getting pushed back.

Liam watched this scene with his eyes narrowed. The battle was progressing smoothly for now with the advantage firmly rested on their side but what concerned him was that they had only barely started.

This was the first floor of the new and upgraded dungeon and the wyverns were already pushed to such an extent that they had to rely on their innate attacks?

Just how strong were these orcs and what did the other floors of the updated dungeon hold for him?

Liam grinned as he licked his lips in antic.i.p.ation. He had a feeling that he would have to personally step in and fight today. He looked forward to it.
