Climbing out of the earth, he survived the terrifying Blood Moon.
Ronan Mountwell finally finished his preparations, using diamonds obtained from the Nether to head into the Twilight.
When he first entered the Twilight, the zombies everywhere made it impossible for him to move even a single step.
However, he was after all an old player who had experienced a civilization before, and after adapting to the intensity, he began to explore.
Relying on his hunter passive, he successfully obtained the crafting recipe for the Magic Map.
"A map is like eyes. With a map, we open up a god's-eye view; why fear being unable to clear the game?"
After killing the Naga and obtaining the chestplate, Ronan Mountwell regained his confidence.
Look at that, it only took two and a half days!
The boss was easily slaughtered; his challenge technique could be considered quite high!
"Something others figured out in half a day, you wasted two and a half days on!"
"Not even mentioning Galen Yu or Mark—Kira Oakmoor didn't waste much time on the Naga either, right?"
"You've taken so long, and you're still quite proud?"
"Mountwell-kun leans towards a support role, and with so many zombies interfering, two and a half days is actually quite fast...
"
"Fuck! Speaking of zombies, I almost forgot. If it wasn't for this damned Samurai Nation!"
"Sigh, it's come to this. Let's defend the chunk first."
Facing Ronan Mountwell's confidence, the audience really couldn't resist picking up their keyboards.
Compared to others, especially Galen Yu, Ronan Mountwell was really nothing to look at.
Solving it with two or three hammers—with difficulty comparable to killing a zombie—yet he could waste two and a half days...
For him, the global audience felt both resentment and helplessness.
Unaware of all this, Ronan Mountwell was wandering through the Twilight Forest.
Since he belonged to the same nation as Kira Oakmoor, theoretically, he could inherit her progress.
Around the same time, Kira Oakmoor found a weakness and defeated the Lich, which meant he could also challenge the bosses following the Lich.
Knowing his own weight, Ronan Mountwell chose the steady path and was in no hurry to head to the Minotaur Labyrinth.
He studied the map carefully.
"Eh? What kind of monster is this?"
In the bottom-left corner of the map, an icon featuring two large horns, different from other bosses, appeared.
Approaching out of curiosity, the strange look in Ronan Mountwell's eyes grew even stronger.
"What a beautiful tree, it has so many colors!"
The closer he got to that structure, the more the surrounding environment changed.
Looking closely, there were actually multi-colored trees, a mixture of several colors!
These trees were brilliantly colored and very beautiful, instantly captivating.
'The law of wilderness survival: the more vibrant a place is, the more likely danger exists!'
After a brief moment of distraction, Ronan Mountwell reacted immediately.
In such a beautiful place, the monsters that existed were certainly not ordinary!
Tentatively approaching the center, he was constantly ready to deal with any ambushing monsters.
But until he entered the structure, there were no health bars, no monsters, and not even a single Crisis Zombie.
What he could see was a giant ram with glowing eyes and special patterns on its body.
[ENTERING MINI-CHUNK: QUESTING RAM GROVE.]
[PROTECTED BY MAGIC POWER, THIS PLACE IS TEMPORARILY SAFE.]
"Questing Ram?"
Seeing that big fellow whose size surpassed ordinary sheep and possessed an extraordinary aura, Ronan Mountwell was stunned.
He knew the eight bosses of the Twilight Forest: the Naga, the Lich, the Minoshroom, the Hydra, the Phantom Knight, the Ur-Ghast, the Alpha Yeti, and the Snow Queen.
The Questing Ram was clearly not among them!
Being able to possess an independent mini-chunk, he understood instantly.
"I've found a hidden boss!"
Since it was a hidden boss, there must be exclusive rewards.
Looking up, Ronan Mountwell saw a dispenser equipped with a button and clicked it gently.
Five colors of wool popped out and were sucked into Ronan Mountwell's hands.
At the same time, the hunter passive triggered, and small text appeared.
[QUESTING RAM: NATURALLY GENERATED IN THE QUESTING RAM GROVE OF THE ENCHANTED FOREST.]
[HAS 70 HEALTH POINTS, ZERO ARMOR, DROPS NOTHING UPON DEATH, AND CANNOT BREED.]
[WHEN IT RECEIVES THE SIXTEEN COLORS OF WOOL, IT WILL DROP A SPECIAL REWARD.]
When the wool was thrown out, a section was added to the Questing Ram's body, making it look elongated.
His guess was indeed correct!
"A hidden boss?"
"What great luck! The Samurai Nation struck gold again!"
"A hidden boss in the Twilight that doesn't attack people? What will it give?"
"It must be something good. Why doesn't our Kapil encounter such things!"
"Keep it up, Mountwell-kun! I knew you could definitely rise again!"
"So jealous. Just consider it a gift to a dog!"
The audience was looking forward to what could be obtained from encountering the Questing Ram.
After throwing all the wool in his hand, the Questing Ram's body elongated, and the sound of a crisis notification reached Ronan Mountwell's ears.
"Those damn zombies are still getting stronger. In that case..."
Turning his gaze toward the Questing Ram, Ronan Mountwell's expression became resolute.
The drops from a hidden boss couldn't possibly be bad; perhaps the strongest equipment in all of the Twilight Forest would drop!
For these, he decided that even if he had to fight the enhanced zombies to the death...
He would definitely gather the sixteen colors of wool and complete the collection!
"Just you wait. The day the sixteen colors of wool are gathered will be the day our Samurai Nation ascends to the peak and completes its counterattack!"
...
"A Questing Ram nearby? What trash!"
Arriving at the Dark Tower, Galen Yu glanced at the map in his hand.
His map also had two large ram horn icons representing the Questing Ram Grove, but he knew.
The sixteen colors of wool are not easy to collect; it is a very time-consuming task.
Even after collecting them all, the Questing Ram will only drop a Crumble Horn.
It can turn sandstone into chiseled sandstone, then smooth sandstone, then sand, and then it vanishes...
Using sound waves to create resonance and destroy the internal structure of blocks is truly sci-en-tific (useless).
It is a divine artifact with a bond as deep as that between a fish and a bicycle!
Retracting his gaze, Galen Yu continued to look around.
"These zombies are getting stronger and stronger."
In just a short while, over a dozen zombies surrounded him.
Their health and attack power had increased. Previously, they could be killed with three sword strikes, but now they required five, and he had to be wary of their attacks, posing a slight risk of death.
"I can't go up from inside the tower."
The Dark Tower—as the name implies—is very tall.
Even standing on the dark trees that blot out the sky, he still couldn't see the top.
There were also various spawners and monsters inside; fighting his way up step-by-step would be a waste of time.
So Galen Yu used the simplest and most effective method.
Mine some wood and build up.
He didn't care about the few resources inside the tower and went directly along the edge to the highest level.
Upon reaching the top floor, he wasn't in a hurry to activate it. Instead, he stayed close to the wall and went to the four small rooms in the corners.
There were redstone circuits, a pressure plate, and Ur-Ghast trap blocks with yellow circles and red lines.
The Mazebreaker was extremely fast; in the blink of an eye, he dug up three and placed the traps in one room.
At that moment, he triggered the boss.
[NO ONE KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST; THIS FOREST HAS SIMPLY BECOME A RUIN OF CIVILIZATION FOREVER ALONGSIDE A DISASTER.]
[NOW THE CREATURE KNOWN AS THE UR-GHAST OCCUPIES THE TOP OF THE DARK TOWER, WANDERING ALL DAY ABOVE THE RUINS OF THE SHATTERED TOWER.]
[ENTERING HOSTILE MINI-CHUNK: DARK TOWER.]
[UR-GHAST]
A giant, terrifying monster appeared!
