Chapter 1026, Lava Ghoul Bats

Translator: Silavin

 

Situ Hengxing naturally had no objections to this proposal.

 

After all, Dungeon Instances were something the Situ Family had plenty of. Giving Lu Fan ten to exchange for an Epic Grade item meant the Situ Family profited greatly without loss.

 

At the same time, this was Lu Fan’s own request. By agreeing to Lu Fan’s proposal, they were fulfilling Lu Fan’s wishes and further strengthening their relationship with this supreme expert.

 

For the Situ Family, it was all benefits with no drawbacks.

 

Thus, the two finalized their cooperation.

 

Lu Fan coughed lightly. Just as everyone was getting anxious and curious about how Lu Fan would distribute this equipment, Lu Fan finally spoke.

 

“This equipment is useless to me.” Lu Fan said in one sentence, making quite a few people’s hearts stir.

 

Especially the fatty from the Yang Family. He actually had considerable interest in this Epic Grade item and wanted to obtain it, even if it meant taking a loan from others.

 

However, Lu Fan’s next words disappointed him.

 

“How about this? Coming to Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance was at the Situ Family’s initiative. The Situ Family contributed people, money, and effort. So, this equipment should be allocated to the Situ Family first. If the Situ Family doesn’t want it, then the rest of you can decide on how this is distributed. How does that sound?”

 

The others looked at each other. Although reluctant to part with this equipment, no one dared raise any objections.

 

After all, Lu Fan was right. Coming to Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance was the Situ Family’s initiative. The Potions everyone consumed were also refined by the Situ Family.

 

Even in the earlier Boss battle, Lu Fan contributed the most, followed by Situ Hengxing.

 

Without the Situ Family, where would they have the opportunity to come to Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance and have a share of the Rewards?

 

Both emotionally and logically, this equipment had nothing to do with them.

 

Thus, everyone nodded in agreement, letting Lu Fan allocate this equipment to the Situ Family.

 

Situ Hengxing pretended he had not made any prior arrangements with Lu Fan, nodded, and proactively thanked Lu Fan.

 

Then, he stated that this equipment was indeed useful to the Situ Family, so he wanted to keep it.

 

If there were new Rewards later, he would also proactively consider others to see if they needed anything, striving to ensure everyone could obtain their share of Rewards as discussed before coming.

 

Naturally, no one had any objections to this.

 

Thus, this equipment fell into the Situ Family’s hands, temporarily kept by Situ Ying.

 

After distributing all the Rewards, Lu Fan looked around and then asked Situ Hengxing. “Senior, there should be more than just the Purgatory Demon King as a Boss in this Dungeon Instance, right? Now that we’ve killed it, where should we go next?”

 

Situ Hengxing smiled awkwardly, stroking his beard. “We don’t know that either. Previously, when our Situ Family came to this Dungeon Instance, we explored at most to this point. The Purgatory Demon King’s strength is too formidable. Without exploring together with the other Families, I did not have absolute confidence in victory. So, after killing the Purgatory Demon King, I really don’t know where we should go next.”

 

After a pause, Situ Hengxing continued. “The remaining path still needs to be slowly explored. As for which direction to explore, I think we should follow Brother Lu’s lead. After all, it is clear you’re the absolute strongest out of everyone here. We’ll all listen to you.”

 

Lu Fan smiled, not expecting that he would inexplicably become the leader of the group, now also responsible for navigation.

 

However, since no one knew which way to go anyway, he might as well give some random commands.

 

Even if he chose the wrong path, no one would say anything.

 

Thus, under everyone’s bewildered gazes, Lu Fan took off his shoe and tossed it into the air.

 

Then, he stepped forward to pick up the shoe and pointed in the direction the shoe’s tip indicated. “This way!”

 

…

 

Although the navigation method was absurd, everyone still followed Lu Fan and began exploring in one direction.

 

Moving forward, the Monsters that appeared were diverse and numerous.

 

At the same time, the Monsters’ strength and Levels had increased, proving that although Lu Fan’s direction might not necessarily be correct, everyone was indeed advancing toward the Dungeon Instance’s deeper areas.

 

Eventually, everyone arrived at a location. Moving forward, they discovered a barrier standing before them. A barrier that was completely impassable.

 

Now, everyone knew this was most likely the edge of the Dungeon Instance.

 

In other words, everyone had taken the wrong path and had not found the next Boss.

 

Naturally, no one complained. After simple analysis, everyone roughly determined the Map’s approximate shape and their current position, simultaneously formulating a new route.

 

However, after changing direction and walking for just a short while, magma erupted from the ground again.

 

The Monsters condensed from this magma were different from before.

 

They directly condensed into bats with half-meter wingspans. Before anyone could react, they flew into the air and spat magma downward, launching attacks on everyone below.

 

This made things rather difficult for everyone, because these Monsters were Flying Units.

 

At the altitude they were at, everyone could only be on the lower ground, which inevitably put them at a disadvantage when dealing with them. If they flew any higher, they might trigger the Map’s Restrictions, causing meteorites to fall.

 

Therefore, after these Monsters appeared, everyone felt immense pressure. They could only struggle to defend while using their Range Attack Skills to target these Monsters called Lava Ghoul Bats in the sky.

 

The only consolation was that these Lava Ghoul Bats did not have High Health Pools, making them much simpler to kill than Magma Sky Devouring Pythons.

 

However, they were too agile, able to dodge most Skills.

 

At the same time, there were countless of them. The surrounding magma continuously condensed, instantly transforming into hundreds of Lava Ghoul Bats, making everyone miserable.

 

Lu Fan could use Dragon Language Replication to copy his Pet Dragons’ Range Skills.

 

However, these Lava Ghoul Bats were too numerous. With Lu Fan’s power alone, it was difficult to quickly eliminate them all.

 

Therefore, after some thought, Lu Fan decided to reveal a bit more of his trump card. He reached out and drew a Summoning Array.

 

What he summoned was naturally Xiao Ye, his Fire Element Combat Specialised Pet Dragon.

 

However, to avoid being too high-profile, Lu Fan had Xiao Ye summoned in her Human Form.

 

Still, Xiao Ye’s appearance left everyone present astounded.
