Chapter 38

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

By the time Liu Yiyi arrived, Lin Mo had already packed up the items dropped by the Boss. At the same time, he distributed the free attribute points given by the upgrade equally.

There was only one dungeon left. Lin Mo didn’t waste any time and immediately started a new dungeon challenge.

Before Liu Yiyi could fully recover, she was dragged to another space by an invisible force.

The surroundings were pitch black, and a cold voice rang in their ears.

“Warning: Hidden dungeon has been activated. The difficulty has been forcibly increased to Nightmare Mode!”

“Warning: Hidden dungeon has been activated. The difficulty has been forcibly increased to Nightmare Mode!”

“…”

Three lines of blood-red words appeared in his eyes. Liu Yiyi’s expression suddenly changed!

Hidden dungeon! This was a phenomenon that was almost impossible to appear in a Black Iron dungeon!

Once the hidden dungeon was activated, the difficulty would increase exponentially. The difficulty would also break the norm. It jumped several steps from Hard Mode to Nightmare Mode.

More importantly, in the Nightmare Mode, the life of a professional could not be guaranteed. Once they died, they might really die.

Liu Yiyi’s breathing gradually quickened. She entered the instance dungeon to earn money, not to lose her life.

“Lin Mo, let’s retreat! A nightmare-level hidden dungeon is not something we can challenge right now!” Liu Yiyi summoned the exit panel. Compared to death, the penalty for quitting was not worth mentioning.

However, Lin Mo clenched his fists tightly and was deep in thought.

Hidden dungeon! This was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Such an opportunity usually only appeared in platinum-level dungeons and above, but now it actually appeared in a mere iron-level dungeon. Even so, the attributes and the number of monsters in the hidden dungeon would increase by a terrifying amount. On the contrary, the monster drop rate would also increase.

To many powerhouses, the advantages definitely outweighed the disadvantages. However, to encounter a hidden dungeon, it would all depend on luck.

This was the reason why Lin Mo was so excited. The monsters in the hidden dungeon would improve based on their original strength, but it would not be too heaven-defying. With his current HP and the super god-level passive, even if they couldn’t guarantee that they would pass the stage, they could still survive safely.

“Lin Mo! Lin Mo!”

Liu Yiyi, who was beside him, was burning with anxiety. She shouted repeatedly, “What are you thinking about? Let’s go out together!”

Although Lin Mo’s two dungeon runs had given her too much of a shock, but this time was different. The difficulty was on a completely different level. The Nightmare difficulty of the Hidden Dungeon meant that a monster’s HP was close to 10,000. Compared to the original 1,000, it was much higher.

“You can leave first. I will pay attention to my safety. If there is any danger, I will immediately exit the instance dungeon.” Lin Mo chuckled.

He had the double blessing of the Sin of Greed and the King’s Divine Shield, so he definitely did not have to worry. On the other hand, Liu Yiyi was a fragile assassin, she couldn’t withstand the gentle touch of the monsters here.

It was quite tiring to continue acting, so it was better to be alone for Lin Mo.

“But…” Liu Yiyi’s eyes were filled with worry. After a short period of interaction, although they did not interact much, Liu Yiyi did not want Lin Mo to be in danger.

“Don’t worry, I know what to do.” Lin Mo shrugged and raised the Hurricane Greatsword, “I’m not stupid enough to seek death. I’m just going to broaden my horizons.”

After repeated promises, Liu Yiyi compromised.

“Then you must pay attention to your safety!”

“If you encounter any danger, immediately exit the instance dungeon!”

Then, Liu Yiyi exited the dungeon and disappeared in a beam of light.

“Ding! Team member Liu Yiyi has withdrawn from the team!”

“Ding! Team member Liu Yiyi has exited the instance dungeon!”

Looking at his lonely self on the interface, Lin Mo officially started the strategy for the hidden dungeon!

He passed through the dark corridor. The environment of the instance dungeon had already been refreshed. He had walked through a winding path that was empty of monsters.

A magnificent castle was located in the middle of the Wailing Forest. Lin Mo came to the door, the heavy wooden door slowly opened with a bang.

The knights who appeared first raised their swords and turned to face Lin Mo in unison.

[Name: Ryder Iron-Armored Knight]

[Level: 19]

[HP: 9740]

[Skills: Stabbing, Charge, Slash, Battle Shield]

…

“Its HP has indeed increased by quite a bit and even has an additional skill. I just don’t know how much damage it has increased to.” Lin Mo sized him up with interest.

With the blessing of the King’s Divine Shield, as long as the damage output was not too exaggerated, there was no threat to him at all.

Lin Mo immediately held the Hurricane Greatsword and approached the iron-armored knight closest to him.

In Nightmare Mode, the Iron-armored Knight’s movements were quite agile. Within three meters, the Iron-armored knight rushed forward and swung its sword.

“Clang!”

“-205!”

The attack landed in front of Lin Mo’s chest, and his HP decreased by a little. However, it still surprised Lin Mo. The monster’s attack in Nightmare Mode was indeed high. If it wasn’t for the King’s Divine Shield’s effect, this attack would have taken away 2,000 of his HP!

However, the higher the monster’s damage output, the easier it would be for Lin Mo. The Armor of Thorns dealt over 3,000 damage, leaving the Iron-armored Knight with only one-third of its HP left!

“It’s too troublesome to attack one by one. It’s easier to attack together.” Without any scruples, Lin Mo directly pulled the aggro of the remaining iron-armored knights and was instantly surrounded.

Facing the steel-like collision force, Lin Mo once again thought of how good Slime was.

At the same time, a group of people gathered around and discussed at the entrance of the dungeon.

The originally unassuming entrance to the iron-level dungeon actually began to crack at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a spider web. It was as if they could fall apart at any time.

Coincidentally, Liu Yiyi was teleported to the entrance of the dungeon.

“Monitor, where is Lin Mo?” Hu Li and the others immediately stepped forward, looking impatient. They had long held back their anger and wanted to release it.

Liu Yiyi took a deep breath and snapped, “I haven’t settled the score with you yet, but you actually dared to use despicable methods to plot against Lin Mo behind my back.”

“This…” Hearing this, Hu Li, Sun Bin, and the others instantly lost their temper. No matter what, they were indeed in the wrong.

“Boom! Boom!”

At this moment, a loud rumble came from underground.

“F * ck, I really don’t know what’s going on. This crappy instance dungeon can also be hidden.”

“I really don’t know which unlucky bastard encountered it.”

But at this moment, a car arrived. Jiang Xin was on the phone with the administrator.

This instance was under the supervision of the Legendary Academy, so it was impossible for there to be no reaction. Therefore, they immediately sent Jiang Xin, who was the closest to this dungeon.
