Hearing the announcement, Zhang Yue, who held the only Hell Key, sighed with relief, “The Destiny Chest has finally appeared!”
With that, Zhang Yue teamed up with two major guilds to swiftly crush the remaining forces of the Infinity Guild.
He then opened the map and followed the newly refreshed guide to the location of the Hell Grade Chest.
Upon arrival, he saw a sea of people, with a towering dark red beam of light standing amidst the crowd.
Countless Professionals surrounded the beam, but none could get close.
The closer one got to the beam, the more frequent the flashes of white light!
Clearly, as the only Hell Grade Chest within the Gate of Hell, its guards were far stronger than those of ordinary chests, making it impossible for regular Professionals to approach!
But the value of the Hell Grade Chest far surpassed that of the King Grade Chest, and being the only one in the world, its allure was immense!
Everyone wanted it.
But they didn’t know: even if they got the Hell Chest, they couldn’t open it.
Because the only key that could open the Hell Chest was with Zhang Yue!
The Professionals ahead charged like moths to a flame, falling one after another.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
With several intense impacts, dozens of Professionals in the inner circle were instantly killed, causing those on the outskirts to retreat, not daring to approach the chest rashly.
“Damn! There are too many guards for this chest, and several of them are Lord Grade. Anyone who goes near it is dead!”
“No kidding, it’s the only Hell Grade Chest on the entire map. If it were that easy to get, it wouldn’t be Hell Grade!”
“Whoever gets this Hell Grade Chest will strike it rich!”
As the crowd discussed fervently.
Zhang Yue walked through the crowd.
He saw a chest engulfed in Hellfire, calmly placed in a matrix.
Around it stood thirty to forty hideous, four-legged beasts with gaping maws full of fangs!
They were all level 40 monsters called [Heart Eaters], with three of them being Lord Grade!
These were top-tier monsters in the Fifth World, and with such a large number, it was no wonder that the level 32-33 Professionals couldn’t get close to the Hell Chest!
Even Zhang Yue had to be cautious of these powerful monsters!
Zhang Yue immediately used Scouting to gauge the enemies.
Level 40 Heart Eaters, Physical Type monsters, with 1950 attack, 1000 defense, and a lot of health.
Additionally, the three Lord Grade ones had 2200 attack, 1050 defense, and 120,000 health!
There were too many of them, and they were too powerful.
Zhang Yue quickly analyzed, “We can’t take them on.”
At this moment, Wu Haotian looked at the thief girl Lucy and asked, “Can you steal it?”
“Tried, can’t do it,” Lucy frowned. “The chest is sealed by some force. We have to deal with these guards first to get the chest.”
“So what now?” Everyone fell into deep thought.
Zhang Yue remained calm, “Leave it for now, we’ll come back next time.”
Lin Tian pondered, “But everyone only has one chance to enter the Gate of Hell in their lifetime.”
Zhang Yue, holding the Hell Key, said, “I have four chances. Besides this time, I have three more.”
The holder of the Hell Key gets three extra chances to enter the Gate of Hell!
This privilege gave Zhang Yue a significant fallback!
Ning Tiantian worriedly asked, “But what if someone else takes the chest by then?”
“Don’t worry, Tiantian,” Wu Haotian said dismissively, “If even our Guild Leader can’t take it, who else can at this stage? Is there anyone more formidable among the new Professionals?”
So, Zhang Yue and his group each took a high-grade chest and left the Gate of Hell.
The main issue was that Zhang Yue’s current weapon quality was too low.
A level 25 three-star quality Necromancer’s Staff made Zhang Yue increasingly ineffective against higher-level monsters in more advanced worlds.
He opened his storage space and took out the King Grade Chest contributed by the Infinity Phantom.
Now, Zhang Yue hoped to get a five-star weapon from this chest, so he could re-enter the Gate of Hell and claim the Hell Chest!
Zhang Yue was probably the only one among this batch of Professionals entering the Gate of Hell who carried out a King Grade Chest.
At this moment, Lin Tian and Wu Haotian opened their chests, which were also contributed by Infinity Guild Professionals, containing diamond or star-grade chests.
Besides a large amount of experience, gold coins, and psionic energy, Lin Tian surprisingly found a rare Mage Skill Book worth over seven figures in the market from his star-grade chest!
It was an incredibly valuable find!
Ning Tiantian, Lucy, and Wu Haotian each got several four-star quality golden equipment and a large amount of high-grade materials from their diamond-grade chests, which was also quite good.
The most anticipated was still Zhang Yue’s King Grade Chest!
Zhang Yue immediately opened the chest.
“Ding~ Congratulations on opening the King Grade Chest, you received: Level +1, Gold Coins +100, Psionic Energy +w (with ten thousand times amplification)! You obtained [Death’s Eye Blueprint] +1!”
Indeed, it was the highest-grade five-star equipment!
But to Zhang Yue’s slight disappointment, it wasn’t a complete piece of equipment but a blueprint for a staff!
It would require a lot of materials, manpower, and resources to create this equipment.
At least Lin Tian’s star-grade chest yielded a rare skill book.
In comparison, the King Grade Chest yielding just a blueprint seemed a bit underwhelming.
As Zhang Yue was thinking this.
Lin Tian, after some online research, came to a shocking conclusion, “There’s no record of [Death’s Eye] equipment online. This might be the first appearance of a special type of equipment in the 110-year history of the Otherworld!”
The term “special type of equipment” sent a shiver down everyone’s spine!
It was well known that each piece of special equipment in the Otherworld was unique and had its own advancement system.
Their strength far exceeded that of ordinary equipment of the same quality.
If that’s the case, then it might be worth the value of the King Grade Chest!
At this moment, Wu Haotian said, “But even with the blueprint, an ordinary Blacksmith might not be able to make this special equipment.”
So, Zhang Yue immediately sent a Feixin message to Liu Yao, “I need a favor. Can the Xiao Family’s creator help me make a piece of equipment?”
On the other side, Liu Yao, who was busy with guild members digging up chests in the Gate of Hell, received the blueprint of the [Death’s Eye] from Zhang Yue and immediately sent it to the guild’s logistics department to contact the Xiao Family.
Soon, he reported back to Zhang Yue, “Brother Yue, the creator Xiao Jiba said he can make the equipment, but you’ll need to provide the materials yourself. Recently, too many people have been asking the Xiao Family to make equipment, and their warehouse is empty!”
“No problem,” Zhang Yue replied, “What materials do I need? Send me the list.”
“300 pieces of level 5 Magic Crystals will be enough,” Liu Yao said, “Also, since this is special equipment, the cost might be higher. The Xiao Family’s quote is 500,000. Can you accept that, Brother Yue?”
Luckily, they had looted quite a bit from the Infinity Guild in the Gate of Hell.
Zhang Yue didn’t hesitate, “I can. I’ll gather the materials and find you.”
“Alright!”
No matter what, once the Death’s Eye was made, he would use it to claim the Hell Grade Chest in the Gate of Hell!
So, the next task was to gather materials.
At this moment, the thief girl Lucy suddenly ran up to Zhang Yue and asked, “Does your previous offer still stand?”
“Of course,” Zhang Yue said, “The Temple of Destiny welcomes you.”
