Chapter 92 - 82: Enter the Secret Realm! A Powerful Enemy in the Darkness!
A group of ten people, led by Wang Ning, walked along the mining tunnel, their surroundings revealing traces of recent mining.
Zheng Cheng asked curiously, “Brother Wang, this mining tunnel is newly dug, right?”
“Hmm.” Wang Ning nodded, “The mine was bombed by Fire Sheep, an elemental deity under the control of Lords of Dark Sun, during the capture attempt.”
“We hired three earth magicians to reopen the rubble-filled tunnel and clear this passage.”
“The secret realm is just ahead, we’re almost there.”
They turned a corner in the mine and saw a milky-white light gate in front of them.
The light gate looked similar to a dungeon entrance but didn’t seem very stable.
The surrounding light gate swayed slightly, as if it could dissipate at any moment.
After investigating, Wang Ning said, “This entrance to the secret realm will last for about four more days. After you complete the task, rush to the entrance as fast as you can.”
“Otherwise, once the entrance collapses, you guys will be trapped in the secret realm forever!”
Bai Jingqi and the others nodded slowly and said gravely, “Get ready!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he conjured a bloody wing-knife in his hand.
The blade was thick and sharp, with several small holes in the spine, each fitted with a copper ring.
With another wave of his hand, a round shield with a golden copper base, engraved with dragon patterns and drenched in blood, appeared.
He donned phosphorescent armor that covered him entirely, including his head.
Behind him, Bai Jingsheng produced a long, blue feather pen in his hand.
He was dressed in an apricot-yellow Taoist robe, with the Eight Trigrams printed on it, resembling a Taoist priest.
Li Zhen was also clad in a black and red robe.
In his hand, he was holding a scarlet bone stick exuding a bloody smell.
As for Li Jiao, she wore a robe that had been specifically modified.
The originally spacious robe had been tailored to be figure-hugging, with the hem split apart just like a cheongsam, revealing her slender, fair legs with each movement.
In the dimly lit mine, they all sparkled with charming charm.
In short, they seemed quite flamboyant.
Only Qin Zheng remained dressed in black sportswear, hugging Cai Shen and whispering something in his ear.
“You guys are…”
Cai Shen was left dumbfounded, and even Zheng Cheng looked somewhat strange.
That’s quite… well-prepared!
All of them, at the least, were seven-star-ranked Professionists who used their innate arming.
But what about the armor, shields, and scepters?
Damn it!
Rich bastards!
He only had a scepter and a long knife given as a gift by Zhao Yunxiao.
These people seemed to be equipping themselves to the teeth!
Bai Jingqi laughed, “Haha, Brother Zheng Cheng, how about marrying into our Bai Family?”
“Equipment and tools are all guaranteed!”
“I still have about seventeen or eighteen unmarried sisters, or you could marry my elder sister!”
Li Zhen also added, “You could join the Li family too. You’re free to choose any sister, except for Li Jiao!”
“No thanks, I am not interested in the idea of marrying into a wife’s family.”
Zheng Cheng declined outright.
As a joke, if I were to marry into a family, I’d prefer a powerful and gorgeous female Professionist.
Marrying into your family? What’s that all about!
Well, I certainly wouldn’t want to share the same fate as Cai Shen’s parents.
I prefer being the only breadwinner, communal resources are still too hard to swallow.
“What a pity…” Standing at the forefront, Bai Jingqi asked, “Ready to enter? I’ll be the leader; any objections?”
The others shake their heads, all signaling approval.
A strong tank always brings a sense of security to the team.
No one opposes his leadership.
“We’re short on time; let’s go in.”
As soon as he said this, Bai Jingqi put the round shield in front of him and stepped into the secret realm first!
Qin Zheng also waved and said, “I’m going in too. After the secret realm ends,
I’ll buy you guys a round of drinks!”
The noble family members stepped in after one another. Zheng Cheng also took a deep breath and said, “Let’s go in too!”
In front of Zheng Cheng, Liang Feifan, Cai Shen, Yao Zhixue, and Song Chaoyu, the secret realm unfolded.
The light dazzled, and they all appeared within… another mining tunnel!
[Secret Realm: Morea Mine]
[Level: LVIO (professionist below LVIO can enter)]
[Entry Numbers: 10]
[Difficulty: Nightmare]
[Description: A mine invaded by evil half-orcs. Thirty years ago, the owner of the Morea Mine, black-bearded dwarf tribe, dug a rare treasure ‘Heart of the Earth’ out from the underground mine, which attracted the half-orcs. They invaded the Morea Dwarf Mine, slaughtered all dwarfs, only to seize the rare treasure ‘Heart of the Earth’]
[Main Task: Retrieve the Heart of the Earth!]
[Task Description: The Heart of the Earth was hidden by the Black Beard Dwarf
Tribe in a secret place. The half-orc tribe is searching for it. Meanwhile, the Black Mountain Dwarf Tribe has learned about the demise of Black Beard dwarves and is confronting the half-orc army].
[You have to find the Heart of the Earth in three days, or else, once the half-orc army returns, you will undoubtedly be killed].
“Have you received the main task notification yet?”
Bai Jingqi, who looked like a can in his full-body armor, approached and asked in a deep voice.
“Hmm.” Zheng Cheng nodded, “According to the task, the half-orc army is in a standoff with the Black Mountain Dwarf Tribe outside the mountain.. While there are only a small number of half-orcs in the Morea Mine, we should not underestimate them”…
