Chapter 694: Chapter 246: [Loss of Sword]
"Isn’t it too dangerous when it’s daylight?"
Today, Ree Shil immediately raised doubts.
The demon-slaying methods of those treasure hunters are very clever. freёweɓnovel.com
He had personally witnessed a Berserk Zombie Beast’s arm fall off like a wax under a hot knife just by a gentle stroke of a treasure hunter’s finger.
This image made him deeply believe that the treasure hunters were on the same level as the Zombie Beasts.
"I have many little brothers, so what’s there to fear?"
Ree Shil dismissively waved his hand.

[Rock Gargoyle!]xN
The surrounding Zombie Beast Swarm immediately let out even louder roars than before.
The scene did look quite impressive.
If this had been 10 minutes earlier, Ree Shil wouldn’t have had much confidence.
But now, after devouring 8 players, his rating had gone above 500.
He could clearly feel himself getting stronger.
As he became stronger, his little brothers would naturally become stronger as well.
"Players are more active at night, making it easier to find their traces, and our vision at night is not obstructed. So why wait until daylight?"
V-50, too, could not understand why the other party was not interested in continuing their hunt.
"Your summoned beasts are indeed powerful."
Thursday reminded him, "But aren’t you afraid of other players developing as well?"
She really didn’t understand the intention behind the so-called "casual wandering."
"I’ll do some math for you."
Faced with their doubts, Ree Shil simply waved his hand.
"I have devoured 14 people so far."
"I can clearly feel their proficiency levels; all of them were strong, above the basic template."
"Which means that they are basically players who have devoured at least 1 other player."
"But I cannot determine how many times they have devoured."
"So let’s just consider them all as single-devour players."
"Doesn’t that mean that when I devour a single-devour player, it’s equivalent to devouring two players?"
"Because that includes the devoured player and the one they devoured."
"So, in this Instance, there are currently 65 people eliminated, and I have essentially devoured 14 players."
"Doesn’t that equate to having 28 people in my stomach?"
"Almost half of the eliminated participants are concentrated here with me. What nutrients can the others find to grow stronger?"
It must be admitted that devouring these eight was a great boost for Ree Shil.
Not only did it enhance his combat power, it also boosted his confidence.
"You have a point..."
Having carefully considered what he said, Today had to acknowledge that Ree Shil was right.
Of the 100 players in the Instance, Ree Shil alone occupied 29 portions of power.
And don’t forget that Thursday is a 3-time devourer, he himself is a 1-time devourer, Greenfeather is a 1-time devourer, and V-50 is a 2-time devourer.
That means that together, the four of them hold 4+2+2+3=11 portions of power.
Adding that to Ree Shil’s, that’s a total of 40 portions!
Unless the remaining power is all concentrated on a single opposing player, there is no team that can challenge their position!
In such a situation, it would really just take a few more casual devourings by Ree Shil, and his entire temporary squad would be all but guaranteed to advance.
"So you mean to..."
Today seemed to understand Ree Shil’s intention.
"That’s right since advancement isn’t a problem."
Ree Shil nodded, "Why don’t we go play with the NPCs?"
"You mean to accept missions, right?"
Thursday suddenly understood.
"That makes sense. During the day, mission NPCs might be easier to find."
V-50 chimed in.
"So, everyone, it’s not like you’re completely without things to do."
"Could you help me find mission NPCs?"
"Of course, I will transfer part of the Zombie Beast command authority to you, so there’s no need to worry about safety."
So, Ree Shil presented his idea.
Honestly speaking, aside from Greenfeather who had a connection with him, the other three were complete strangers.
If he really wanted to bring everyone to advance, he would have to put in some effort.
Everyone agreed with this decision.
So Ree Shil temporarily entrusted Greenfeather with the command authority of 200 Ginseng Zombies + 100 Stone Zombies.
She would lead the team in search of mission NPCs.
If they encountered players along the way and eliminated them, Greenfeather would devour them because Ree Shil only trusted her.
Meanwhile, Ree Shil himself led the remaining, even larger Zombie Beast Legion, and began sweeping in another direction.
After that round of devouring, some of his skills had been updated.
[Ability User]: Ability value greatly increased
[Don’t want to move]: When lying down, energy recovery efficiency greatly increases
[Rapid Casting]: Skill cooldown time reduced
[Hot-blooded Legion]: Temporarily increases the speed of summoned Zombie Beasts
[Replenishing Vitality]: Fires a powerful Energy Bomb
[Ginseng Legion]: Summons 2 wingman Zombie Beasts
[Earth and Stone Soldier]: Draws a talisman, using earth and stone to create 1 Stone Zombie
[Phantom Avatar]: Summons 1 Phantom Zombie
With these 8 skills, he felt pretty much the top equipped for a Wind Mourner summoner in this Instance.
His abilities covered various aspects; even his own combat power was remarkable, able to fire more and faster Energy Bombs.
So they split into two teams and began their so-called "casual wandering."
If they encountered players, they would try to find a way to devour them.
However, the primary objective was still exploration.
