There were simply too many pieces of equipment on the ground, sneaking a few wouldn't arouse suspicion, and even if someone did notice, just deny everything—that should suffice, right? What could they possibly do to him?
"Mr. Copper Giant," the fatty turned to the side to address Copper Giant.
Upon hearing this, Copper Giant said, "If Mr. Zombie King says the gear goes to Zhang Deyu to distribute, then it's up to him to distribute."
"All of you, bring out the equipment, and anyone else who has taken gear on the sly, do it now, or I won't hesitate to show you what I'm capable of."
"Did you hear that? Hurry up and bring it out. And like I said, there will be enough for everyone. Just look at all the equipment laid out here," said the fatty, clearly annoyed.
The group fell silent, seemingly intimidated by Copper Giant's words, and eventually, they brought out the equipment.
"That's more like it. Alright, I'll start distributing it now. Let's begin with the lower-levels so everybody can get a set of gear," said the fatty, as he began to allocate the equipment.
Meanwhile, Mu Rufeng was speeding through the wilderness.
Indeed, this region was considerable in size.
Before Mu Rufeng even reached Black Water Lake, he saw black beams of light continuously falling from the sky.
Each beam of light struck a monster with unerring accuracy.
Not a single monster could withstand the attacks from the black beams.
Clearly, these were Copper Giant's methods.
One had to admit, they were formidable.
As he flew, Mu Rufeng suddenly thought of something, and with a flick of his mind, a purple potion appeared in his palm.
Mu Rufeng immediately opened it and drank the potion in one gulp.
[Consumed Experience Potion, Experience +1000000]
After some time, Mu Rufeng arrived at Black Water Lake.
At that moment, Black Water Lake was still black and purple, and its surface remained calm without any signs of disturbance.
Even the black beams of light had never descended here, clearly, the monsters in the lake had long since been killed off by poison.
Standing above the center of Black Water Lake, Mu Rufeng took out a token and poured his mana into it.
The next second, the token burst into dazzling light and then transformed into a beam that shot out of Mu Rufeng's hand and into Black Water Lake.
As the token submerged into the lake, the previously calm surface began rippling.
Immediately after, a tremendous whirlpool rapidly formed.
With the sound of swirling waters, a colossal crystal gate slowly rose from the lakebed, emerging from within the whirlpool.
Above the crystal gate hung a sign with the words 'Dragon Palace' inscribed on it.
Then, under Mu Rufeng's gaze, the Dragon Palace gate slowly opened.
Behind the door, a dazzling scene unfolded, and without much hesitation, Mu Rufeng flew straight in and disappeared from view.
Upon entering the gate of the Dragon Palace, Mu Rufeng felt a flash of light before his eyes.
When his vision cleared, he found himself standing inside a somewhat dimly lit palace.
Mu Rufeng looked around and realized the palace was immensely large, and all around stood numerous stone sculptures that appeared to be palace guards.
[Congratulations player for entering the Dragon Palace dungeon, double event activated, gain double the experience, drop rate, and points for the next hour.]
"Double event? Double experience and drop rate, and double points?" Mu Rufeng was momentarily stunned, then a smile spread across his face.
He loved such events the most.
"Crack, crack, crack~~!"
It seemed that Mu Rufeng's arrival had triggered something in those stone sculptures, as cracks began to appear on them.
Suddenly, the sculptures shattered, the pieces tumbling to the ground.
One by one, putrid shrimp soldiers and crab generals exuding a strong stench emerged before Mu Rufeng.
[Shrimp Soldier (Elite)]: Ordinary shrimp soldier, a guard of the Dragon Palace gate.
[Crab General (Elite)]: A crab general, another guard of the Dragon Palace gate.
"So it really is shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Does that mean inside there are also turtle seniors, and could the BOSS actually be a True Dragon?" Mu Rufeng's eyes lit up with excitement.
Having already encountered Black Water Jiao, which was merely a Jiao, had shocked Mu Rufeng. The prospect of now seeing a dragon exhilarated him even more.
However, as Mu Rufeng regarded the decaying shrimp soldiers and crab generals before him, he was struck with a bad premonition.
"No matter, let's get to work. It's best to clear this dungeon quickly so I can move on to hunting monsters in other wilderness regions."
Wielding the Dragon Tooth Magic Wand in his hand, Mu Rufeng watched as several beams as thick as washbasins of Scorching Beam appeared and instantly engulfed over a dozen of the shrimp soldiers and crab generals.
The Scorching Beams hit the Dragon Palace's pillars and buildings without any resistance.
[Congratulations player for killing LV33 Shrimp Soldier (Elite), Experience +13200X2, Points +132X2. Received additional experience for killing a monster beyond your level, +13200X2 points]
[Congratulations player for killing LV35 Crab General (Elite), Experience +14000X2, Points +140X2. Received additional experience for killing a monster beyond your level, +14000X2 points]
"Whoa," Mu Rufeng was startled, promptly reining in his power.
Mu Rufeng was taken by surprise at the sight of the ten massive Scorching Beams.
Naturally, his gear was at the very least orange-quality, and his weapon was of the Golden Legend tier, all Level 30.
As a result, it became apparent that the Level 15 Skill: Scorching Beam, had become incredibly powerful.
"Looks like I need more practice. When casting a single-target Scorching Beam, I've got to reduce the mana by a tenth," Mu Rufeng reflected.
