The type of monsters in the Ruined Town is very singular, there’s only the Walking Dead.
These Walking Dead have no intellect; they just wander aimlessly throughout the Secret Realm, and whenever they encounter living beings, they immediately pounce to tear into them, or merely follow along with other Walking Dead.
Thus, sometimes you might encounter situations where many Walking Dead congregate, and facing such circumstances usually requires spending a lot of time waiting for the group of corpses to disperse.
Charging forward recklessly, triggering a corpse tide, is no laughing matter.
That’s where the difficulty lies in the ’Ruined Town’.
Overall, in terms of mere area size, this Secret Realm can’t compare with the ’Black Stone Mine’, but sometimes the entire challenge process can be ridiculously lengthy.
This is solely because the corpse herd takes forever to scatter, and Professionals have no way to disperse the corpse group, so they can only waste time.
Of course, this is rather extreme; generally, a Professional team with decent cooperation can easily complete the entire Secret Realm challenge within five hours.
If it’s a stronger team, within three hours, it’s doable.
"With the blessing of Wide Area Spellcasting, I can attack within the Walking Dead’s perception range from outside."
Lin Ye raised the Magic Staff in his hand.
About a hundred meters away, Holy Light representing Healing Technique struck a hapless Level 8 Walking Dead.
Healing Technique that restores Professionals’ Life Value, at this time, acted on the Walking Dead, instantly killing it directly.
In Abyss Level difficulty, these Walking Dead have Life Value of around 1500 points.
And Healing Technique, as Holy Light Attribute Skills, when used on Undead Creatures, can directly deal double the Damage of the healing amount!
Lin Ye’s Healing Technique, casually, is over a thousand healing amount, doubling to over two thousand! ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel•fire.net
Thus, instant-killing these Walking Dead is simply too easy.
And something surprising happened to Lin Ye...
[Your Healing Technique killed the ’Walking Dead LV8’, you gained 1 Power point!]
Seeing this prompt, Lin Ye was slightly taken aback.
But then he quickly understood...
The feature description of the ’Healing Dominator’ Talent is ’when healing takes effect’.
This refers to when healing-type Skills produce effects.
And using Healing Technique to kill Walking Dead, naturally belonged to ’taking effect’, so it also triggers the effect of Healing Dominator!
This discovery indeed surprised Lin Ye quite a bit...
Because earlier in the Black Stone Mine, he also just used Healing Technique to attack a BOSS; afterwards, to speed up the kill speed, he used higher Damage Punishment Technique.
And that one Healing Technique didn’t trigger any effect, so naturally Lin Ye didn’t realize that Healing Technique on Undead could also brush Attributes for himself.
At this moment, Lin Ye gazed at the streets filled with Walking Dead, his eyes changing...
These are not Walking Dead; they are clearly walking attribute points!
At this moment, Lin Ye didn’t waste any words, directly entering point-kill mode, swiftly swinging the Magic Staff in his hand.
Holy Light kept flashing on these Walking Dead.
And the Walking Dead roaming around were totally indifferent to their companions getting point-killed constantly nearby...
Because they didn’t perceive any living beings around, naturally no attack actions occur.
And whether ’companions’ are being attacked is clearly something beyond their instincts’ processing range.
Lin Ye only needed to stand outside the Walking Dead’s attack range, effortlessly harvesting them all.
Of course, only he can do this...
If unable to instantly kill the Walking Dead, if they produce any aggression, it would inevitably trigger a chain reaction, causing a violent uprising of the surrounding horde, potentially resulting in Lin Ye facing thousands of Walking Dead charging at him.
Thus, Lin Ye’s key to not triggering a corpse tide lies in ’Wide Area Spellcasting’ and directly instant-killing!
Both are indispensable!
After some preparation, Ke Jue’s team finally stepped into the Ruined Town.
Aside from Qin Yi, Lu Yunsheng also found three more sparring partners for Ke Jue.
Although the lineup doesn’t compare to last time’s Black Stone Mine trip, among the novice ranks, it can still be considered an elite team.
Especially Qin Yi, this guy is a Paladin, occupying a significant advantage when placed in an undead-dominated Secret Realm like the Ruined Town.
"Let’s begin! First, we need to go to an exhibition hall on the west side of the town and get the first vial of Holy Water!" Qin Yi said directly, showing extreme excitement.
This Secret Realm expedition, is more him showing off muscles than helping Ke Jue.
"Alright! Let’s do as you say!" Ke Jue nodded.
To kill the BOSS, you must gather three vials of Holy Water; anyone who glances at a Ruined Town strategy notes would know this.
The first location to obtain Holy Water truly is the exhibition hall Qin Yi mentioned.
Immediately, they emerged from the cabin and started moving.
This time, they were quite lucky.
"The Walking Dead are spread evenly!"
"Great! We can quickly proceed out of this plaza!"
Two team members couldn’t help showing delighted expressions.
The Ruined Town Secret Realm, sometimes with good luck, even a mediocre team can achieve decent results.
But with bad luck, if confronted with dense corpse horde as soon as you open the door, even a strong team could get caught in a painful tug of war, wasting a lot of time, leading to poor scores.
Seeing the sparse distribution, at most three or two gathered Walking Dead, Ke Jue’s eyes regained some brilliance.
Perhaps, in this round, she might also achieve an impressive score?
"Move! Let’s aim to get the first vial of Holy Water within half an hour! Then we take the shortest route to get the other two vials; if luck favors us, we might compress the clear time to close to two hours!"
At this moment, Qin Yi was also rubbing his hands, quite exhilarated.
Even aiming to compress clear time close to two hours.
This would be the historical fastest clear time of the Ruined Town!
At this moment, their team was extremely spirited!
"The Treasure-Seeking Rat is about to reach the location of the second vial of Holy Water."
Lin Ye maintained staying outside the Walking Dead’s range of attack, wiping out the Walking Dead along the way.
Despite being alone, his rate of killing Walking Dead was far quicker than those teams entering the Ruined Town.
"Within an hour, he should arrive at the cemetery over there..."
Lin Ye roughly calculated.
And this clear speed is even more than an hour faster than the historical record!
