Chapter 140: Executing orcs

[You have entered the Orc Dungeon.]
[Recommended Level: 35-50]
For his first-ever dungeon, Alex aimed pretty high.
It wasn't one of those new dungeons that new players aimed for. For the majority of players, the Orc Dungeon was their third dungeon. They already had an experience with going through the floors and clearing monsters.
[Alexander Deathwill Lv. 42]
[Tomo Homie Lv. 36]

[Dark Fenrir Lv. 37]
[Zhen Lv. 36]

Alex's level was the highest. He was not at the top as there were hardcore players who solely focused on leveling up. They had their guilds preparing high quests for them, and their high levels naturally attracted challenging quests.
Alex had other priorities, and the level was ultimately just a number.

"I see that we have a pretty balanced party," Alex glanced at his homies; his smile was wide.
Everyone wanted to become a high damage dealer before the game started. But the plans changed significantly after trying out the vivid game world.
Tomo Homie became a healer. Zhen was probably the only one who managed to stay close to his initial goals. Josh was the tank, and unfortunately, he had the lowest level since it took him a while to find his path.
Pedro chose magic, but he was also quite indecisive here.
Alex smiled, "What kind of magic do you use?"
Pedro sighed, "I must use all magic skills. If I only focus on fire, the wind and water will destroy me. If I only focus on water, the earth and lightning will counter me. There are so many counters…." He clicked his tongue.
Alex made his usual expression of disbelief, but that was his homie indeed.
Pedro then shared his story about his class quests. Since he was bold enough to go for every magic possible, nearly all mages didn't like him. They still gave him quests as that helped their own growth.

But as he started showing promise in mana control, the mages' opinion about Black Fenrir had changed. They started fighting for him, giving him better skills with each quest.
The mages hadn't given him too strong techniques yet. But if Pedro swore to follow just one element and its mysteries, the mages were ready to bless him with at least an epic grade skill!
Alas, Pedro had his own thoughts about the one element mages.
"Haha!" Alex burst out laughing.
The guys' talk stopped after Tomo Homie noticed the first incoming enemies.
[Orc HP: 2000/2000 MP: - Lv. 35]
There were at least ten of them.
Those orcs looked like humans with green skins. Their skulls were a little deformed as if someone banged their heads with clubs. Their eyes lacked intelligence, and they were simply filled with killing intent.
Their bodies were over two meters high. And those very bodies were thick and muscular as that was how the orcs had been created within the dungeon. Nothing covered their flesh except pants made out of wolves' fur.
Alex squinted his eyes, "They are low level… Their HP doesn't seem that high at all."
Ding!
[Dungeon Quest #1]
[First Floor - Kill five thousand orcs as the party to advance to the second floor. If you find the first floor's boss, killing him will be enough to step onto the second floor.]
"Simple, right?" Tomo Homie chuckled, "The first-floor orcs don't hold any weapons. Their bodies are also exposed, so we shall kill them in three or even two hours!"
"Yeah," Alex and the rest except Pedro replied with broad smiles.
Tomo Homie whispered to Alex, "Let Josh taunt them all."
"Can he do it?" Alex asked as the orcs circled around them.
His friend snickered, "You don't know, Alex… But our boys have been praised countless times by martial artists.
And as a healer, I've been meeting a lot of nuns. I learned so many god names through them. I am stunned I remember them all. And all those nuns told me one thing; I believe in their god from the bottom of my heart since I can use healing skills proficiently.
Girls, I am atheist," Tomo Homie laughed out loud.
Alex grinned too.
But then, their tank slammed his shield onto the ground. Josh, the amiable guy with a soothing voice, howled like a furious beast, holding the shield with all his might.
Alex dilated his eyes as he had never heard such a roar from him!
That roar was his [Taunt]. All orcs shifted their attention to Josh, whose face had been scrunched as if those orcs licked his girlfriend.
Alas, he didn't have a girlfriend yet…
Nonetheless, Josh's skill worked perfectly. Without lagging behind, Zhen and Pedro unleashed their skills.
Zhen rushed forward with his sword before him, tightly within his hands.
Pedro channeled fire arrows out of his long staff. Those arrows barreled into the orcs' heads with perfect accuracy.
At the same time, Zhen's sword cut through their torso. They combined their skills, taking down more than fifty percent of the orcs' health points.
Tomo Homie snickered, "I didn't get to cast my skills yet. See, Alex… Where did he go?"
His friend wasn't next to him. As Tomo Homie looked ahead, he noticed that Alex had been already on the move.
He was just a breath away from slashing through the wounded orcs.
He charged with his sword an inch from scratching the ground. He held the weapon strongly in one hand, which was quite unusual for swordsmen.
That made him look somewhat cool with Wolfgang Set.
And then, Alex jumped into the middle of three orcs. He spun, drawing a nearly perfect circle slash. Blood rose like fireworks around him. But more importantly, Alex deepened the wounds Zhen left on the orcs' torso.
Zhen, who saw it, widened his eyes in a shock.
'Chilling Slashes has slowed them significantly… And I see bones already. Well done, Zhen,' Alex whispered inwardly, feeling like his whole vision was in slow motion.
In that battle mood, he noticed all his weaknesses.
And as the bones were exposed, Alex could only inflict the finisher!
[You have used The Shattering Thrust.]
[-999999 HP!]
The orc popped into red fragments in an instant.
The other two followed quickly after as Alex carried on with his momentum.
"One hour will be enough to kill five thousand," he said with his eyes locked on the rest of the orcs.

The orcs howled as if they could understand him.
"Heh," Alex chuckled before lashing out his skills at them.
