"Liam is still here?" Mia looked at the notifications as her usually cold gaze showed signs of concern. She knew that the person was traveling out of the kingdom so she couldn't help but wonder what made him turn around.

"This is… " Alex also stared in amazement. "Level 50 dungeon? And he soloed it? Look at this. There are no other party member names. That means he soloed it right? How did he solo a level 50 dungeon?"

Liam was clearly taking no effort in hiding his strength. The two of them looked at each other and nodded in silent understanding. They needed to hasten their efforts as well. Otherwise, they would be left behind in the dust.

Both Alex and Mia were currently in the divine temple city, fishing for quests. They closed the system notifications and hurriedly continued with their work.

The other core members of the Crimson Abyss guild also had similar reactions. 

However, several others saw the same notification and for many of them, this was basically a reminder about Liam's current location. The only problem was… 

By now the location of almost all dungeons in the various kingdoms was available on the internet so everyone knew where exactly this was.

Liam was deep in the Level 50 to Level 70 zone and it was not possible for anyone to ambush him easily. 

While the other guilds begrudgingly dropped the notion of hunting him down near the high-level area, one particular person looked at this with interest.

"Anya, we need to make a trip. Fast."

…

…

…

Meanwhile… back at the border of the Gresh Kingdom…

Liam sat down on the banks of the ravine beside the elven women as he combed through the loot. There were four mounts of loot piled on the banks. 

Most of them were fish parts but there were also other noteworthy items, like leg guards and quick boots. He switched out the ones that had better stats, handed over his minions some weapons to use, and after a few minutes was finally done.

"Damn. Has it really been only six hours?" He bit into a piece of roasted meat, courtesy of Shen Yue which if Luna was awake would have jumped onto immediately. 

"This grind is still too slow." Liam sighed.

Lyana, sitting near him, bitterly smiled at this response. If she had strength like this… then she would have never gotten herself into this predicament in the first place.

But what was this still enough to deal with the barbarians? That was something that couldn't be determined at the moment. She shook her head helplessly. 

"What are you thinking about?" Liam asked and the elf once again shook her head. 

She did not want to break the human's confidence at the moment. Maybe when he improves his level, he would really have a chance to go up against those monsters.

Liam looked at her with a puzzled expression but he was short on time at the moment. So he once again resumed his dungeon farming spree.

Soon a couple more hours passed and he decided to take another break before attempting the higher-difficulty modes of the same dungeon.

He might have run the normal difficulty modes repeatedly but it would be foolish to underestimate the adventure mode and the nightmare mode of the dungeon. 

There were definitely some preparations required.

Liam stood up and adjusted his gear one more time. He then distributed some gear to his soul minions as well. Not everything was working and looked like cloth gear with the least weight was the most compatible.

This took some time and then Liam remembered something else that he should have probably been using from the get-go. 

That's right, he also had the two other legendary items. He could equip both of them right now and with these, the higher difficulty modes should be a lot easier, well provided that there were no hidden requirements.

Liam hurriedly took out the rabbit's foot neckpiece and the brawler's knuckles. Both the items shone with a golden luster making the elves nearby open their mouths wide.

After the tournament, he had been preoccupied with so many important things that he hadn't even had the chance to examine these two items yet.

"Let's see what you can give me." Liam pulled up the system interface to check out the two items.

Liam immediately rejoiced. This meant that he could equip it. He quickly looked below to see the detailed stats. Immediately, he was shocked.

This was because unlike Mei Mei's Emerald Crown or Shen Yue's daggers, this one did not bump up any of his stats or give him additional health or mana. 

There was only one skill and it seemed to be doing something else entirely.

[Passive Skill: For every elemental wisp commanded, add half a stack of arcane to the attack. Every stack of arcane has a 1% chance to multiply the magic damage a hundredfold.] 

Liam stared at the description. He read and re-read the notification but there was no doubt about it. 

This was an item that could insta kill someone with a single attack if they managed to generate just the right number of elemental wisps.

The requirement was that one needed to master the control of elements but if one were to do that, then this item would boost their power tremendously.

This was it. This was how a legendary item tilted the game in a player's favor. Such an item could determine victory and loss, life and death single-handedly.

And he had not one, but two of the said godly items. Liam took a deep breath and then looked at the next item's description. Surprisingly, this one was even shorter than the last one.
