Chapter 83 Alan's Health Points Exceed One Million
That was, when encountering the Divine Might debuff, he resolved to retreat promptly for assistance.
In the village, there was a high probability that someone could counteract Divine Might.
Otherwise, with this hell-level difficulty of Divine Might, neither he nor subsequent players would succeed.
Before the second job change, even players with god-level talents found it nearly impossible to conquer this dungeon.
So, finding a way to counteract Divine Might was the most important thing.
It should also be the best hidden reward in the newbie village.
While Alan contemplated these thoughts, he had already seen Dr. Jackson.
This was a man over six feet tall, with a robust build and in his fifties.
His graying hair and long beard gave him the appearance more akin to a village chief than a doctor.
Amanda said, "Dr. Jackson, this adventurer helped us kill the Ice Wolfman and plans to go deeper. However, the ice monsters' healing ability in the snowfield is too strong. He's wondering if there's any way to reduce the their' healing."
Dr. Jackson glanced at Alan, pondered for a long while, and then said, "Brave adventurer, your courage exceeds my expectations, but I'm skeptical of your ability to handle those stubborn ice monsters."
He continued, "Unless you proceed to eliminate some Ice Serpents, I can reward you based on the number of Ice Serpents you kill."
[Dr. Jackson has issued you a quest. Do you accept?]
[Quest requirement: Kill Ice Serpents, the more the better.]
[Quest penalty: None.]
[Quest reward: Receive a heavy injury potion for each Ice Serpent ]
Alan raised an eyebrow, seemingly to have discovered something interesting.
That was, he didn't need to kill all the Ice Serpents to retreat.
In other words, when facing the Ice Serpents, there was no need to fight to the death.
If that was the case, then the Ice Serpents likely had fixed territories, similar to the range controlled by Divine Might.
As long as he exited the reach of Divine Might, would the Ice Serpents stop pursuing?
Considering the current circumstances, this seemed quite plausible.
"Alright, you can count on me, Dr. Jackson. I will do my best to kill as many Ice Serpents as possible."
With that, Alan took his leave.
This time, due to the previous battle, Alan had consumed all the food that increased attack speed.
Therefore, he gained an attack speed of +1 and a movement speed of +6.
This boost made him feel nearly invincible.
Still, it was that stone tablet covered by snow.
[An ancient kingdom lies dormant here!]
Alan didn't pay much attention, stepping over the stone tablet and continuing forward.
Divine Might descended!
Alan still didn't pay attention until the first Ice Serpent appeared.
Alan began to attack and retreat simultaneously. When he exited the boundary of the stone tablet, the Divine Might disappeared, and the Ice Serpent also vanished.
"So that's how it is. It seems my guess was correct."
The Ice Serpents here might also have a reset ability. As long as he exited, everything inside would reset.
Alan noticed that the health he had stacked on the Ice Serpent disappeared after exiting the boundary of the stone tablet.
Another reset!
But this reset was different from the previous one; this time, only the attributes of the attacked Ice Serpent were reset.
Alan pondered for a moment.
Alan did not step forward again but turned back to find Amanda.
"Amanda, the area beyond is shrouded by Divine Might. Once I step in, all attributes drop by fifty percent, greatly impacting my subsequent battles."
Alan asked, "Is there any way to counteract Divine Might?"
Amanda shook her head repeatedly. "Divine Might is left by the gods. We mortals have no means to counteract Divine Might."
Alan was not completely disillusioned; he sought out Dr. Jackson again.
Dr. Jackson's answer was similar to Amanda's, both refusing flatly that saying there was no way to counteract Divine Might.
Alan didn't believe it. He believed someone like Daniel or another individual might know how to counteract Divine Might.
It's just that he hadn't triggered this key character yet in the way he opened this game dungeon.
At this moment, James sent a message that the nutrient pod was ready.
Alan smiled, logged out of the game, and entered the nutrient pod.
This pod's nutrient solution supported him up to half a month without eating or drinking.
Logged back into the game using the nutrient pod, Alan felt more confident. Being able to stay online continuously for half a month, he believed he could definitely conquer this dungeon.
Alan crossed the boundary of the stone tablet again, affected by Divine Might, and without the purifying amulet, all his attributes dropped sharply.
Especially attack speed and movement speed dropped by seventy-five percent,a formidable setback at any stage.
When the first Ice Serpent appeared, Alan didn't use his feather arrows to attack first but chose to use the equipment "Tome of Life and Death."
'Sure enough.'
Alan remarked with a satisfied smile.
As he expected, the Ice Serpents, with their unified name, could still be targeted using the "Tome of Life and Death."
As long as he could see it, he could use the "Tome of Life and Death" to target it, causing continuous bleeding.
Even withhis attributes halved, Alan managed to achieve a damage output of over twenty-three thousand damage per second.
Because the fixed ten thousand damage was not affected by Divine Might.
Next, Alan continued to output damage.
As usual, knocking the wild monsters into the air and then continuously attacking.
Due to the increased health value from gained from fighting the Ice Wolfman, Alan's damage was even higher.
Each normal attack could maintain around forty thousand damage.
Twelve thousand damage per second, plus twenty-three thousand from the "Tome of Life and Death," Alan's damage per second reached one hundred forty-three thousand.
In one minute, his damage output amounted to an impressive eight million five hundred eighty thousand.
Even considering the Super Armor state healing, he demonstrated formidable prowess.
Alan's newfound output capability was terrifying!
Compared to the previous forty minutes to kill an Ice Serpent, he now managed it in just one-eighth of that time.
Moreover, the actual time was even faster than Alan's estimate, as it took only four and a half minutes for the Ice Serpent to be nearly killed.
However, this success sparked a mischievous idea in Alan's mind. He wasn't in a hurry to kill the Ice Serpent.
Let it land!
This was interesting.
Once the Ice Serpent waslanded, Alan continued to attack with full force, stacking nine health points per second, which was five hundred forty health points per minute.
What would happen next, Alan didn't know.
But one thing was certain.
The more health he stacked, the better equipped he would be to face whatever came next.
As the second Ice Serpent appeared,
Alan frowned.
The previous seven-plus hours of high-intensity five-arrow shots had taken a huge toll on his mental strength.
Now, even shooting two arrows at once felt a bit overwhelming.
No choice, Alan had to kill the first Ice Serpent before attacking the second one.
