One enhancement stone could increase defense by 5 points, which was almost half of the defense provided by a level 15 piece of equipment. If one could enhance their equipment multiple times, the defense could be even stronger than silver grade equipment.

Of course, the higher the equipment’s grade, the more attributes and features it would have. Some equipment could even come with skills, which couldn’t be matched by enhanced low-level equipment. However, increasing defense by 5 points out of thin air was still very attractive.

“This is great, we should get more of these. If I can increase my defense, I can tank more monsters, and maybe the four of us might be able to complete this dungeon,” Ma Yu said with shining eyes as he stared at the enhancement stone in his hand and chuckled.

As a Shield and Sword Defender’s class, Ma Yu valued defense more than other classes. He couldn’t bear to let go of the enhancement stone and even had the urge to use it immediately.

“Ma Yu, your current equipment quality is average. I think it’s better to wait until you get better equipment before using this enhancement stone, at least a silver grade one,” Wang Qi quickly stopped Ma Yu.

Ma Yu thought for a moment, nodded, and said somewhat embarrassedly, So, is this enhancement stone temporarily assigned to me?

“It’s yours, hold on to it. You risked your life to get it,” his teammates assured him.

“If it weren’t for you blocking all the small monsters at the end, we might not have made it out…”

The reason the four of them could often team up and level together was because they were able to be humble, considerate, and understanding. The enhancement stone was obtained through their collective efforts in fighting the monsters. If it weren’t for the other three nearly killing the small monster, Ma Yu wouldn’t have been able to finish it off at the last moment;

However, everyone agreed that as a Shield and Sword Defender player, 5 defense points meant a lot, so no one argued with Ma Yu.

“I won’t take the next one we get, we’ll take turns,” said Ma Yu before storing the enhancement stone in his bag.

“Guys, what do you think? We’ve tested the strength of the monsters in the dungeon, and with our current strength, we might not even see the first BOSS…” Wang Qi looked at the other three and said.

The other three fell silent, and after a long while, Ma Yu sighed, “We have no choice but to ask for external help. The dungeon’s output is much greater than we imagined. Even if we give the Swordman equipment, blueprints, and formulas, we should still make a profit.”

Just the enhancement stones alone had stirred their hearts, and there were even more valuable items rumored to be inside.

Zhou Qing and Tang Rong eventually agreed, a little unwilling, but their combined strength wasn’t enough. They couldn’t give up just like that, could they?

Wang Qi’s lips curled up slightly. Song Jian’s strength was increasing, and it wasn’t a bad thing to stay in touch with him. If the four of them formed a fixed team, with Wang Qi as the leader, they would likely need Song Jian’s help many times in the future. Building a good relationship with him now would make it easier to ask for help later.

“Brother Song, my teammates have all agreed. When can you come over?

Wang Qi asked, a bit excited.

Song Jian was patrolling his territory when he received the call. He paused, then said, “I’m free right now, just send me the coordinates, and I can head over.”

“Great, Brother Song. We’ll be waiting for you at the dungeon entrance!” Wang Qi sent the location to Song Jian and said, “Be careful on your way over, and make sure no one else sees you.”

“Understood!” Looking at the address, it was some distance from his safe house. Song Jian hung up and summoned his motorcycle, heading towards the location Wang Qi had specified.

Wang Qi and the others were standing in front of the “Sinful Bloody Cage dungeon entrance. In a few minutes, everyone’s status had recovered. While waiting for Song Jian to arrive, they entered the dungeon once more. Although they’d given up on the idea of beating it with just the four of them, they could still handle fighting the smaller monsters at the entrance.

The group barely managed to kill a small monster before being forced to retreat. The monsters’ attacks were just too overwhelming, and their healing class could not keep up. Ma Yu, the Sword and Shield Guardian, couldn’t withstand the attacks of three small monsters at once. After they finally killed one, they didn’t even have time to pick up the loot before quickly leaving the dungeon.

“We can’t handle it…” Ma Yu looked at his newly acquired level 15 blue grade shield with a pained expression on his face.

“These small monsters here are almost as powerful as Elite Level BOSSes outside. It’s not easy!” Tang Rong shook his head, completely dismissing the hope of completing the dungeon.

“Wang Qi, do you think Song Jian can really carry all four of us if he comes?

Zhou Qing asked somewhat worriedly.

They had confidence in Song Jian’s strength but not so much in their own. If even the first on the Level Glory list couldn’t carry them, they would have to sell the dungeon location to another team and make a little extra money. Still, that was nothing compared to the rewards of completing the entire dungeon, which made it a painful thought.

“Let’s wait and see for now. Just recover your status and hope he doesn’t disappoint us,” Wang Qi said, feeling helpless. Their combined strength was simply too weak, and he was unsure if Song Jian alone could carry them.

“Hey, 1 think I hear a motorcycle. Could it be the big shot is here?” lang Rong s sharp ears picked up the sound of a roaring engine and he said cautiously.

In a short while, Song Jian’s figure appeared in front of the four of them.

“I’m not too late, am I?” Song Jian smiled as he looked at the four players.

These four were all level 15, their equipment was very average-mostly white grade with the occasional green or blue grade piece.

“Not at all. We’re glad you’re here, Brother Song,” Wang Qi quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, “Let me introduce everyone. This is our defense warrior, a Sword and Shield Guardian, Ma Yu. This is our melee damage dealer, a Thief class, Tang Rong. And the one next to him is our healer, a Priest class, Zhou Qing!”

“I’m a Musketeer, Brother Song, which is a ranged damage dealer class as well,” Wang Qi lifted the strange-looking gun in his hand and explained.

“Hello everyone, I am Song Jian, a Swordman class!” Song Jian smiled and glanced at the Sword and Shield Guardian, Ma Yu. He had a feeling that Ma Yu’s class wasn’t just a regular defense warrior.

To their surprise, the first on the Level Glory list didn’t seem as arrogant as they’d imagined. They found him quite easy to get along with.

“Alright, everyone’s here. Let’s go into the dungeon,” Wang Qi looked at Song Jian and said.

“Let’s go,” Song Jian nodded and took the lead, heading toward the dungeon entrance.
