Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 236: Like to Yell? Shut Your Mouth!
"I'm back!"
Zheng Xiaoyu pushed open the door of the dormitory and saw only Lin Yue inside. She blinked and asked, "Where're Achang and Yuxin?"
"They went shopping," Lin Yue turned her head, glanced at Zheng Xiaoyu with a smile, and handed over a piece of bread from the table. "Here."
"Wow! How did you know I was hungry?" Zheng Xiaoyu's eyes lit up as she took it and started eating without any reservations.
It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon by now.
She was already hungry.
But Qin Chuan, her team leader, didn't seem to be anywhere near done, and she felt awkward about mentioning it.
"I've been keeping an eye on the dungeon guide situation," Lin Yue rubbed Zheng Xiaoyu's head. "You all have been at it for three hours, with no time to eat."
"Wuwuwu, Yueyue is the best." Zheng Xiaoyu nuzzled Lin Yue's head, chewing on the soft bread, her face revealing an expression of bliss.
"He... probably hasn't had anything to eat either," Lin Yue said, her voice dropping as she glanced out the window. "This guy, when he's focused on something, he never pays attention to anything else."
"The president is probably at the cafeteria by now, right?" Zheng Xiaoyu paused in her chewing at those words. "Even though we could've continued with the A-level instance, the president ended it early. He probably wanted to rest a bit too."
"Hard to say," Lin Yue muttered softly.
Though she hadn't met Luo in real life, judging by what she knew about him, it was likely only Red Leaf who had finished, right?
"Xiaoyu, can you tell me about your experience in the dungeon?"
"Sure thing!" Zheng Xiaoyu nodded her head, continuing to eat while somewhat muffled, she recounted their miraculous three-hour experience to Lin Yue.
After hearing about their adventure, Lin Yue's eyes shone brighter, her face filled with longing.
Today, she had already given the first piece of Intermediate Resources to Du Yu.
Getting back on my feet won't take long.
Finishing the last bite of her bread, Zheng Xiaoyu opened the dungeon list to look and began speaking cheerily, "See, the president didn't go for the A-level dungeons."
"Really?" Lin Yue followed suit and opened up the dungeon list, but her expression soon turned serious.
"Why didn't you check the S-level dungeons?!"
-----------------
Once again grounded, Qin Chuan scanned his surroundings and his expression instantly became serious.
The scene before him was unlike any dungeon he'd experienced in the past.
He found himself at the very bottom of a tower that spiraled upwards with a hollow center, the design allowing him to see all the way to the top in a single glance.
But his gaze was obscured by the thick fog inside the tower, sending a cold shiver down his spine, as if some terrifying creature hidden within the mist had already set its eyes on him.
[Dungeon: Warrensoke Mysterious Tower]
[Dungeon Description: Even after an ominous start on the first day of construction, the Dwarf Demon Clan of Beligo Territory stubbornly proceeded to build this Sacrificial Tower to showcase the Dwarf Demon's creations, and they paid the price for their stubbornness the day this cursed tower was complete.]
[Dungeon Level: S-level]
[Horizontal Difficulty Rating: ★]
[Dungeon bosses: Cursed Remnant·Lanso, Mysterious Shadow·Lelian]
[Dungeon Talent: Sun Needle (Gold)]
[Wearing Title: [Purple] Undead Terminator]
[Minimum Requirement for Dungeon Conquest: Defeat Cursed Remnant·Lanso]
[Dungeon time limit for conquest: 66:35:32]
[Abandon this conquest]
[00:00:39]
Multiple dungeon bosses?!
Qin Chuan was taken aback.
This was a first.
If all goes as expected, this should be a hallmark of an S-level instance or higher.
Fortunately, although there is more than one instance boss, the minimum requirement for clearing the instance is still to kill one of them.
As for the other, if left alone...
The moment Third Talent of the Sun Needle activated, Qin Chuan fell silent.
After changing to Dungeon Talent, the Third Talent of Sun Needle no longer had a limit on the number of locks, and at this moment, it had marked the positions of both instance bosses.
The instance boss known as Cursed Remnant·Lanso was situated at the very top of Mysterious Tower.
He maintained the form of a Dwarf Demon from before his death, barely one meter tall but with an extraordinarily muscular body, draped in a suit of armor that seemed very powerful, his face masked by a bizarre covering that seemed neither to cry nor smile.
Through the gaps in the armor, the densely packed, strange eyes and fierce flesh buds on Lanso's body could be seen, adding an even greater sense of danger to his presence.
At this moment, this S-level instance boss with his mask that made Qin Chuan shudder at a glance had his eyes tightly closed, sitting cross-legged at the central point of Mysterious Tower's top level, as if in a deep sleep.
Below him, within the mists that enveloped the middle level of the Mysterious Tower, another instance boss was moving rapidly and unpredictably, its nearly translucent body fierce and twisted.
The pair of blood-red eyes of the other seemed to sense the lock of the Third Talent of Sun Needle, turning its head to look, its mouth filled with sharp fangs, revealing a savage and crazy smile.
Qin Chuan silently concluded his observation of the two instance bosses and heaved a sigh within his heart.
It looked like there was no way to avoid it.
"Water Flower, this is a high-end game," he took a deep breath, murmuring to himself as if talking to himself, "We'll have to work together on this."
In his mind came Water Flower's firm voice.
Collecting himself, Qin Chuan lifted his foot and walked toward a wall nearby.
The moment he had entered the instance, the prompt of the First Talent of Sun Needle had already appeared before his eyes.
Near him was a piece of instance clue.
Holding the Dragon Slayer Blade of Salas in hand, he slashed a deep crack into the wall and looked towards the hidden space behind the wall.
Inside was an object similar to a conch shell, and as Qin Chuan picked it up, a line of text emerged before his eyes.
[Congratulations Player for obtaining an instance clue: Lelian's Sound Recording Conch]
Sound Recording Conch?
This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.
Qin Chuan fiddled with it for a bit, bit his lip, and carefully put it to his ear.
A gradually intensifying bizarre screech filled his ear and at that moment, Qin Chuan felt as if an electric current had passed through his head, instantly becoming more alert.
That was the sound stored in the conch shell.
From the name of the instance clue, it could be inferred that it should be the screech of the Mysterious Shadow·Lelian from above.
Regarding this, Qin Chuan felt that compared to the screeching of the Lake Bottom Death Demon, it was simply too weak, it not only failed to make him uncomfortable but actually had a somewhat refreshing and invigorating effect...
Wait a minute...
Refreshing and invigorating?!
Qin Chuan instantly looked upwards toward the fog, faintly seeing through the mist a shadow casting a mocking gaze.
A troublesome fellow indeed.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and the next instant his legs forcefully propelled him up the spiraling staircase, rapidly ascending the Mysterious Tower.
A grotesque monster, a fusion of flesh and mechanical creation, lunged at him, but Qin Chuan did not even glance at it, the Dragon Slayer Blade in his hand cleanly slicing it in two. His steps did not slow in the slightest.
[Instance Creature: Dwarf Demon Creation Beast]
It wasn't until the monster was slain that a tardy introduction prompt appeared.
Laying waste as if chopping melons and cutting vegetables, he quickly stepped into the middle level of the Mysterious Tower.
The semi-transparent, ferocious figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Its blood-red eyes filled with madness, its mouth bristling with sharp teeth suddenly opened wide, seemingly about to let out a screech.
[00:00:38]
As everything around him came to an abrupt halt, a continuous barrage of Rapid Stream Break had already been funneled into Lelian's wide-open mouth.
Like to scream?
Shut your mouth!
