100: Chapter 100 The Enchantress!

As the massive shadow of the Amethyst Giant Dragon swept over the dungeon entrance, Su Chen keenly observed the unique characteristics of this team.

Above the heads of the nine men floated the characters [Darkblade Knights Order] in perfect uniformity, while the ten women bore the designation [Scarlet Knights].

These were not mere professional titles, but a unique team formation mechanism within origin》, akin to small guilds or elite mercenary groups.

Upon joining, professionals could not only gain additional attribute enhancements through rank progression within the group, but also enjoy conveniences like exclusive headquarters and instant teleportation.

Most crucially, fighting alongside group members provided substantial bonuses to experience gain and rare item drop rates.

Naturally, such benefits came with a strict entry barrier—only those who had crossed the threshold of the fifth awakening were eligible for admission.

Su Chen was still unfamiliar with the [Darkblade Knights Order], but any group able to establish itself in Yun City was certainly no pushover; the [Scarlet Knights], however, were already a name that thundered in his ears. As a semi-official elite organization in Yun City, they were hailed as 'a streak of bright red on the battlefield'.

Although the formal membership of the [Scarlet Knights] numbered only 23, each was a renowned and exceptionally talented woman.

Their leader, 'Scarlet', was an unfathomably powerful demi-god level existence.

Even Su Zichen and Zhao Qingyue were counted among their ranks.

Although Zhao Qingyue had only recently stepped into the eighth awakening, she held the position of deputy leader within a group that boasted two ninth-awakening powerhouses, clear proof that she was being carefully groomed as the next generation leader.

Whoosh—!

The Amethyst Giant Dragon made a domineering descent, kicking up clouds of dust upon landing.

Su Chen leapt down lightly, casually recalling the dragon into his spatial storage, and greeted the figures ahead, 'Sister Qingyue, sorry to keep you waiting.'

'It's fine,' Zhao Qingyue replied coolly.

'Qingyue, is this the 'unfathomable' reinforcement you spoke of?' The refined-looking youth—Zhao Jieli—inquired with a playful tone, his eyes not concealing a trace of disdain. 'High potential is one thing, but what use is a fourth awakening fledgling in an eighth awakening dungeon?'

The other male members of the Darkblade Knights Order did not voice agreement, but their indifferent gazes said it all.

In their eyes, Su Chen was not only a burden leaching experience but would also require manpower to protect.

'Who I ask for help is none of your business. Utter another word and get out of the team.' Zhao Qingyue's personality was extremely forceful. Her cold remark directly humiliated Zhao Jieli.

Zhao Jieli's breath hitched, but he ultimately didn't dare to make a scene.

After all, in terms of combat power and status, he was no match for Zhao Qingyue. He could only redirect his fury towards Su Chen, shooting him a venomous glare.

Su Chen naturally wouldn't swallow the insult, responding with detached counter-pressure.

That dormant [God-Slaying Breath] abruptly leaked out. Even at a level disadvantage, the abyssal, prison-like oppressive force made Zhao Jieli's heart race wildly, causing him to involuntarily retreat half a step.

'You alright?' a companion asked, puzzled.

Zhao Jieli's face darkened, looking as if it could drip water. Being intimidated into retreat by a fourth awakening newcomer was a humiliation carved into his bones.

Su Chen gave a scornful smile, his gaze sweeping over the group before finally settling on Li Meiting at the rear, his pupils contracting slightly.

What a 'giant'!

Li Meiting's height astonishingly reached around 2.5 meters. That impact was like the descent of the mythical 'eight-foot lady', yet she was more exquisitely beautiful.

Purple hair cascaded like a waterfall. Her fiery figure strained the mage robes into heart-stopping curves, her allure tinged with a primal, wild temptation.

'Meiting awakened the Giant Bloodline. Her class is Succubus Warlock.' Noticing Su Chen's astonishment, the corner of Zhao Qingyue's mouth lifted slightly as she offered a rare explanation.

Su Chen was inwardly amazed.

This was his first time witnessing a human possessing a bloodline talent, and the combination of class and talent was exceedingly bizarre.

[Li Meiting · Lv140 · Succubus Warlock]

[Spirit]: 621,000 | [Constitution]: 451,063

[Talents]: [Born Warlock] (S-rank: Spirit +100%, Cast Time -30%), [Giant Bloodline] (S-rank: Strength/Constitution +50%, Damage Reduction 20%, can enlarge tenfold with doubled bonuses)

This was practically a monstrous configuration. Aside from slightly slower movement speed, this mage not only boasted explosive output and precise control but even had a tankiness that would make shield warriors sweat.

'Since everyone's here, prepare to enter the instance.' Zhao Qingyue, true to her decisive nature, directly sent a party invite to Su Chen.

[Ding! Zhao Qingyue has invited you to join the party.]

Su Chen confirmed joining.

Scanning the list, the 20-person composition was: 3 knights, 5 warriors, 2 assassins, 3 healers, 5 mages, 2 archers.

Aside from Su Chen, the other assassin was an older-sister type named Shen Yue, seventh awakening, level 139, icy cold throughout.

'When will the status of assassins be elevated...' Su Chen grumbled inwardly, his desire to restore their former glory growing stronger.

The group proceeded to the dungeon entrance. Ancient information was inscribed on the stone stele:

[Legendary Dungeon · Kingdom of Nilu]

[Maximum Difficulty]: Nightmare

[Level Threshold]: Lv145

[Background]: This is a strictly disciplined underground spider empire.

No wonder Su Zichen, also at the eighth awakening, wasn't participating. At level 153, she exceeded the dungeon's level restriction.

[Ding! Your party is about to challenge the Nightmare difficulty of [Legendary · Kingdom of Nilu]. Please prepare!]

The moment the confirmation option appeared, twenty beams of light simultaneously brightened, and the group was instantly pulled into the deep, subterranean world.
