Chapter 257: He Even Gave Away A Primordial Rune
Brilliant bands of light descended from the sky, plunging into the dungeon below, signaling to nearby creatures that a treasure had appeared.
Dragonkind and Abyssal Demons, like wild dogs catching the scent of prey, swarmed in from all directions. Upon seeing Lin Moyu, a mere level 31 human, they charged at him with vicious grins.
The outcome was predictable. Behind the dungeon vortex, a mountain of corpses had piled up, nearly impossible to conceal.
In just half an hour, Lin Moyu had amassed a significant amount of EXP and military merit. Each level 60-plus Abyssal Demon and Dragonkind provided 3,000 military merit, pushing his total to over 600,000.
At this rate, Lin Moyu might soon become a one-star colonel—an unbelievable feat for someone at level 31.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps approached, and a human party of six, all above level 50 arrived.
"Stop." Lin Moyu barked sternly, "The dungeon is temporarily off-limits."
The leading Knight creased his eyebrows, displeasure evident in his eyes, "Blocking the dungeon entrance isn't right, Young Brother."
His teammates also wore expressions of dissatisfaction. But since they were fellow humans, the Knight chose to exercise restraint
Lin Moyu shook his head, "It isn't right, but it can't be helped right now."
The Knight's face darkened. But before he could respond, his teammate nudged him, whispering, "Look over there, behind the dungeon." The Knight's expression changed drastically when he noticed the massive pile of Abyssal Demon and Dragonkind corpses.
At that moment, several Abyssal Demons approached rapidly. A skeleton beside Lin Moyu darted out, grabbed a corpse, and hurled it into the air. It soared 100 meters before detonating in a loud explosion, instantly killing the Demons. The skeletons then calmly dragged the bodies back to the growing pile behind the dungeon.
The whole process was unnervingly smooth and efficient.
Lin Moyu looked over and remarked, "You really can't go in now."
The Knight shuddered. "Understood, Boss."
The effortless way the level 60-plus Demons were dispatched was chilling. If they were struck by that skill, the outcome would undoubtedly be the same.
They no longer believed Lin Moyu was merely level 31, suspecting instead that he was a big shit, likely closer to level 70, hiding his true level with some special method.
"Boss, we'll wait aside. Let us know when we can go in." The Knight said and lead his party away.
Over the next half hour, they witnessed what it meant to guard a dungeon. Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind who approached met their end, with only a few who were quick to run managing to escape.
The mountain of corpses behind the dungeon grew too large to hide, but Lin Moyu didn't bother with it; he simply kept adding to it.
Several more human parties arrived, but they all heeded Lin Moyu's warning after seeing the mountain of corpses. They gathered together, discussing the situation, but kept much of their attention on Lin Moyu, who radiated terrifying murderous intent.
An hour later, a scarlet light shot out from the dungeon and into the sky, and the bands of light flowing into the dungeon vanished.RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only
"Unlikely. They look very similar; they must be siblings."
"Either way, this big shot is amazing, slaughtering Demons and Dragonkind like they were nothing."
"Did you see? His skeletons were stripping the Dragonkind of their gear—he's done this before."
...
As discussions continued, batches of class users began entering the dungeon. With the bands of light gone, the dungeon seemed inconspicuous in the vast Immemorial Battlefield. Most of the Demons and Dragonkind within hundreds of kilometers had already been dealt with by Lin Moyu, making the area relatively safe.
After an hour of guarding the dungeon entrance and killing waves of Demons and Dragonkind, Lin Moyu's military merit had risen to 77.43 million, an increase of more than 200,000. It was an effortless task, especially with enemies practically throwing themselves at his feet.
Lin Moyu resumed his advance toward the core area, his undead legions forming a fan-shaped formation to pave the way. Along the way, whether it was monsters, Demons, or Dragonkind, all were eliminated.
...
In the Abyss, in a grand castle, the Succubus Queen sat on an exquisite throne. Alice, trembling with fear, prostrated herself before her.
"Great Queen, I have failed. Please punish me." Alice begged, not daring to lift her head.
The Succubus Queen rested her chin on one hand, "It's not your fault; Lin Moyu's strength exceeded our expectations. I was the one who failed." She paused, then asked, "Did you complete the task I gave you?"
Alice promptly replied, "I did. I've left a mark on Lin Moyu."
The Succubus Queen smiled, satisfied. "Good."
Just then, a mass of Abyssal Fire appeared before the Succubus Queen, and a beautiful Succubus emerged within the dark green flames.
The Succubus bowed respectfully, "Great Queen, what are your orders?"
With a lazy tone, the Succubus Queen instructed, "Mina, go to the Immemorial Battlefield, find the spatial channel leading to the upper layer, follow the mark left by Alice, and bring Lin Moyu back to me."
"As you command!"
Alice blurted out, shocked, "Great Queen, isn't sending Lady Mina to deal with Lin Moyu overkill?"
The Succubus Queen's face twisted into a cold smile, "Are you questioning me?"
Terrified, Alice banged her head on the ground, trembling uncontrollably. "No, I wouldn't dare!"
"Remember, my decisions are not to be questioned. Now, you may leave." With a wave of her hand, the Succubus Queen sent Alice flying out with a gust of wind, and the castle fell silent once more.
