Roar! Roar! Roar!
Amidst a series of fierce roars, a large number of diverse monsters charged head-on.
In this level 60 dungeon, naturally, level 60 monsters appeared.
However, it was impossible to discern their exact grade.
This was because the Scouting skill couldn’t reveal the data of dungeon monsters.
Presently, the Professionals of the Empire Guild grabbed their weapons and launched an attack on the swarm of monsters!
Soon, both sides engaged in a fierce battle.
Clad in the Eternal Set, the Professionals of the Empire Guild possessed a powerful counter-suppression effect, allowing them to deal a high damage of eight to nine thousand points against the monsters.
While they were feeling proud of the damage they inflicted, Zhang Yue began casting spells from the rear.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
S-rank Hell Judgment!
S-rank Necromancer Storm!
SS-rank rare Thundercloud Storm!
Three AOE skills enveloped the monster horde, exploding above their heads with a continuous damage of around 20,000!
The three area skills severely injured over a dozen monsters within range.
Then, using the SSS-grade unique skill [Heavenless · Godslayer Curse] for targeted kills.
Each kill refreshed the skill cooldown, allowing Zhang Yue’s Godslayer Curse to be unleashed almost infinitely without cooldown!
The damage coefficient of the Godslayer Curse was as high as 900%, plus a 70% skill damage increase from the Eternal Set, totaling 1530%.
Combined with Zhang Yue’s magic attack power and a high 80% spell penetration.
The counter effect of the A-rank Eternal Set could completely negate the suppression from A-rank monsters.
A single Godslayer Curse could easily deal explosive damage of over 160,000!
Such damage could practically scare the Empire Guild members to death.
In an instant, over a dozen monsters were completely harvested by Zhang Yue!
According to the battle records, there was only one S-rank monster among them, while the rest were all D to A-rank!
After dealing with this batch of monsters, Xu Bei glanced at Zhang Yue and noticed, “You switched to the Eternal Set?”
“Judging by your collection over the past two days, it should be the A-rank set, right?”
Zhang Yue glanced at Xu Bei, “Good eye.”
There were no more monsters ahead.
The group pressed forward.
One after another, they continued to eliminate several more batches of monsters.
In almost every instance, over 80% of the monsters were killed by Zhang Yue.
The Empire Guild members could only pick up the remaining 20%.
Who would have thought that the elite Professionals of the prestigious Empire Guild from Dragon City would be reduced to scavenging behind Zhang Yue!
The fact was: S-rank monsters were indeed very rare.
After slaughtering so many batches of monsters, Zhang Yue only killed two S-rank monsters in total!
At this point, the group reached a spacious nest chamber.
Apart from the path they came from, there were over a dozen different forks leading to various places.
At this moment, Xu Bei said, “Choose a fork, everyone stick together, prioritize safety.”
The Empire God of Death, however, opposed Xu Bei’s suggestion, proposing, “That’s too inefficient!”
“Based on the kill progress earlier, S-rank monsters are very scarce in this dungeon. The mission requires each person to kill ten S-rank monsters within three hours. If we stick together, the completion rate will be very low. I suggest we split up.”
The Empire God of Death glanced at Zhang Yue and Xu Bei, saying, “If you’re really worried, the three of us can stick together. We’re relatively strong and can look out for each other. The rest can form teams of five to maximize benefits.”
Before Xu Bei could speak, Zhang Yue responded, “I think that’s a good idea.”
Thus, the Empire Guild members quickly divided into teams, forming eleven small squads from over fifty people.
Each chose a different fork and dispersed.
Following the Empire God of Death’s suggestion, Zhang Yue and the other two took the middlemost path.
Zhang Yue suddenly found it puzzling.
If they intended to deal with him, wouldn’t it be better for everyone to act together?
How could they deal with Zhang Yue if they were so scattered?
However, Zhang Yue wasn’t in a hurry.
After all, he wasn’t the only one prepared!
Upon entering the middle fork, Zhang Yue immediately used Feixin to send Luo Chen his exact location.
The fork started narrow but gradually widened.
Monsters appeared frequently.
Zhang Yue, Xu Bei, and the Empire God of Death joined forces to slay the monsters one by one.
Just as Zhang Yue was wondering why the Empire Guild members hadn’t made a move against him yet, they entered a dark nest chamber, and suddenly, a cold wind swept in from all directions!
Zhang Yue immediately reacted.
“They’re here!”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless flying daggers shot out from the surrounding darkness, targeting Zhang Yue and his companions!
The main target was Zhang Yue!
With extraordinary awareness, Zhang Yue used an S-rank Teleportation to evade all the attacks!
Although Xu Bei also reacted, he was noticeably slower. If those flying daggers had targeted him, he would have been done for.
“Who dares ambush the Empire Guild!”
Xu Bei gripped his longsword, scanning the surroundings.
From all directions, a large group of assassins dressed in black combat attire and wearing masks charged with daggers!
“These assassins again!” Xu Bei was incredulous, “But how did they know we would be in the dungeon and ambush us here, specifically in this fork?”
While Xu Bei was astonished, the assassins had already rushed over.
Their target was Zhang Yue!
But attempting to assassinate Zhang Yue was simply courting death!
Before the opponents could get close, Zhang Yue raised his Eternal Staff and launched an attack!
Heavenless · Godslayer Curse!
Heavenless · Godslayer Curse!
Heavenless · Godslayer Curse!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With just one SSS-grade skill, he annihilated the entire field.
Amidst the endless screams, one assassin after another fell dead.
Triggered by the dungeon’s Monster Nest death setting, the bodies of the slain assassins did not refresh and just lay on the ground.
The number of assassins in this ambush was enormous.
At a glance, there were at least over a hundred!
But even a hundred-man team couldn’t do anything to Zhang Yue.
They had severely underestimated Zhang Yue’s strength!
In front of Zhang Yue, these top assassins, who had received professional training, were utterly vulnerable!
Seeing Zhang Yue handling the assassins with ease, Xu Bei, who had been secretly worried for Zhang Yue, was immediately relieved.
However, the Empire God of Death, watching from the side, was visibly furious, clenching his fists involuntarily.
“Indeed, these second-rate assassins can’t kill Zero, can they?”
“If that’s the case, we’ll have to proceed with tonight’s main plan!”
The Empire God of Death took two steps back, deliberately avoiding Xu Bei’s line of sight, then gestured to the group of assassins attacking Zhang Yue.
In the next moment, some of the assassins continued to attack Zhang Yue.
While another group of assassins suddenly changed direction and charged towards Xu Bei!
