“HAHA, boss, it’s so effective to grind levels here!” the Magician yelled excitedly.

The trio had been leveling up as a party since the start of the game. However, the Magician and the Archer had to be extremely cautious with their damage output, as they might aggro the monsters if they were being careless.

However, they no longer had to worry about aggroing the monsters in the Wolf Valley. They could just attack the monsters at will.

The Splendor Moon Flowing Scar only had to lure the Wild Wolves to the boulder. When the Wild Wolves were close enough, the Magician and the Archer would output damage freely so the monsters would target them, allowing Splendor Moon Flowing Scar to attack at will too. The three could then attack the monsters freely without any worries.

There was no better place to grind levels! Who could possibly match their rate of leveling up?

The trio was extremely pleased. They worked even harder. Eventually, lots of Wild Wolves had died around the boulder.

Their experience bars increased rapidly. However, the trio did not notice the unusual behaviors of the Wild Wolves that had just spawned nearby.

“HAHA, 15% in just five minutes, I’m so close to reaching Level 6! What did I say, you should be glad that I’ve suggested coming here first!” Splendor Moon Flowing Scar burst out laughing after luring a few more Wild Wolves to the boulder.

“Of course, boss…” the Magician and the Archer said. However, they suddenly paused amid their sentence. They looked around them with wide eyes.

Splendor Moon Flowing Scar noticed something unusual too. He quickly turned around and looked around him.

To his surprise, a dozen wolves had suddenly spawned in their surroundings!

The wolves lunged at the trio fiercely!

A violent pack of wolves had appeared!

…

“So that’s how it is! Serves them right!” Chen Mo hid in a corner in the valley with a clear view of what was happening.

Chen Mo gasped when he saw the dozen of wolves killing the trio instantly after pouncing on them.

He only knew the monsters nearby might mutate after the Special Hatred reached a certain level, yet he never thought the monsters would be so terrifying. There was no chance that anyone could survive that.

The Special Hatred of the pack of wolves dissipated after the trio died. The Wild Wolves observed their surroundings for a while before scattered across the valley.

Chen Mo slowly moved forward. He climbed onto the boulder and tossed his traps at the nearby monsters.

Four minutes later, a sacred white light burst out of Chen Mo’s character as he reached Level 5.

After allocating the attributes, Chen Mo’s Strength was now 33. His damage was 36-37 and his max HP was 200. It finally looked a little impressive. However, his equipment panel only had an Ordinary Crossbow and a pair of Goblin Boots.

Speaking of equipment, Chen Mo felt an urge to complain about the low drop rates in the game. He had killed quite a number of monsters all the way to Level 5, yet apart from the Goblin Boots from the mutated Black Goblin, he had yet to see a monster dropping a piece of equipment. The drop rates were insanely low.

Chen Mo was able to kill the monsters slightly quicker after leveling up. However, Chen Mo was unable to kill the monsters in peace for long. The trio soon returned with gloomy looks.

Even though they were wiped out by the Wild Wolves before they could even react, they would not give up on such a great place to grind levels so easily.

Chen Mo voluntarily left the boulder when the trio returned.

“Let’s be careful this time!” Splendor Moon Flowing Scar said with a deep voice. He was thinking of venting his frustration on Chen Mo, yet he did not have an excuse for doing so since Chen Mo had willingly given up on the boulder.

“Got it, boss!”

The three began killing the monsters around the boulder again. This time, they were being a lot more cautious, but after a few minutes, the Wild Wolves did not show any unusual behaviors. The trio let out relieved sighs.

It was as if the pack of Wild Wolves had only spawned coincidentally.

However, after roughly five minutes, the trio was shocked to see a huge pack of wolves spawning in their surroundings!

Awooo~!

The pack of wolves pounced at the trio furiously.

…

“It happened a minute quicker than last time!”

Chen Mo took a look at the time.

While the trio was dying like a team of expendables, Chen Mo gladly took the opportunity to figure out some interesting information.

The trio did not die in vain; at least Chen Mo had learned some extra information from the time that had passed before the pack of Wild Wolves spawned.

“The Wolf Valley is such a terrifying place!”

A bunch of Players showed up at the entrance of the Wolf Valley when the trio was brutally killed by the pack of Wild Wolves. It gave the Players quite a shock.

They were teams that were grinding levels at the spawning area of the Man-Eating Flowers. When more Players started showing up in the area, they decided to come to the Wolf Valley. They witnessed the brutal scene as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the Wolf Valley.

Even the whole bunch of them had no chance against the Wild Wolves, let alone a team.

“Let’s go somewhere else. Even if the pack of wolves will only spawn after a certain time, it’s still going to waste too much of our time,” someone suggested.

“Yeah, let’s look for another place.”

“Why don’t we try grinding levels at the Black Boars? They are Level 7 monsters too. Their defense is high, but their attack is weaker than the Wild Wolves.”

The group of Players soon left the area, completely ignoring Chen Mo who was killing the Wild Wolves in a little corner.

Chen Mo rubbed his nose. It felt like even the Heavens were giving him more chances to grind his levels in the area. It would be a waste if he let the opportunity go.

Chen Mo was willing to use every second available to abuse the boulder. He went over to it and started killing the Wild Wolves.

He had to admit how easy it was to grind the monsters on the boulder.

Unfortunately, Chen Mo was not able to enjoy it for long. The trio soon returned with enraged looks.

Seriously!

They hadn’t given up yet!

Chen Mo quickly ran away as if he was scared of the trio.

“Let’s try again!” Splendor Moon Flowing Scar said while clenching his teeth.

“Boss, I realize the pack of wolves only spawn after we’ve been killing the monsters for nine minutes. Why don’t we go somewhere else for a while after grinding here for eight minutes and try it again,” the Magician suggested.

“Sure, let’s do that,” Splendor Moon Flowing Scar nodded.

The trio started killing the Wild Wolves. They constantly kept an eye on the time as they were slaying the monsters.

Six minutes had passed. They had earned a lot of experience from killing the monsters.

The high amount of experience was the reason why they were not willing to give up even after being wiped out twice in a row.

At the seventh minute…

Splendor Moon Flowing Scar was just about to go and lure more monsters to the boulder when the familiar pack of Wild Wolves showed up all of a sudden again!

The moment the pack of Wild Wolves spawned, another bunch of Players happened to arrive at the entrance of the Wolf Valley.

The Players gave up on their thought of grinding levels in the Wolf Valley as soon as they saw the pack of Wild Wolves. The infamous name of the Wolf Valley spread rapidly among the Players.

…

“The Special Hatred is stacking up a lot quicker. It’s two minutes earlier this time!”

Chen Mo looked at the time that had passed when he saw the trio being wiped out for the third time.

“The little details of this game are pretty fascinating. Even such a little mechanism involves so many details. That being said, the more complicated it is, the higher the chance there’s a bug somewhere.”

Chen Mo was able to learn lots of information from the trio’s sacrificial attempts. It seemed like the idea he had of killing the mutated Black Goblin numerous times was not really viable. It was very likely that the mutated Black Goblin would stop dropping any loot after a few times.

When the trio died, Chen Mo who was well aware of how to avoid the Special Hatred went back to the boulder to slay the Wild Wolves.

The trio had been dying continuously, but he was able to keep obtaining exp from killing the monsters. He just needed to grind for another twenty minutes to reach Level 6.

To Chen Mo’s surprise, when he almost killed all the Wild Wolves in the area, a Wild Wolves with a relatively bigger size suddenly spawned not far away from the boulder.

An elite monster!

Chen Mo was startled. He had a feeling that the elite Wild Wolves had only spawned because of the Special Hatred that the trio had been stacking up. Otherwise, there would be elite monsters spawning in the previous areas if killing the monsters was the only requirement for the elite monsters to spawn.

Chen Mo was left speechless. He had yet to find a bug in the game, yet he had discovered lots of secret rules in the game.

Well…since the elite monster had spawned, he would not mind killing the elite Wild Wolf first.

Elite Wild Wolf, Level 7, HP 5000. It had a thousand more HP than the mutated Black Goblin.

However, the elite Wild Wolf was only an elite monster. It was a grade lower compared to the mutated Black Goblin. It only had higher HP and damage, but its speed was the same as the mutated Black Goblin.

Chen Mo already had the experience of killing the mutated Black Goblin on his own. He was not afraid to take on the elite Wild Wolf that was almost as strong as the mutated Black Goblin. Besides, his damage had almost doubled compared to when he was fighting the mutated Black Goblin.

The elite Wild Wolf did not have any special moves. Chen Mo was able to wear its HP down with ease.

“Awooo!”

Chen Mo tossed a trap down. The elite Wild Wolf howled furiously and fell to the ground. A bunch of copper and items scattered across the ground when the monster died too.

Three figures showed up at the entrance of the Wolf Valley. Splendor Moon Flowing Scar’s eyes flickered angrily the moment he saw the elite monster falling to the ground.
