37: New mission: Advance to the Netherworld

At the array core… the remaining 100+ survivors treated each other's wounds.

Having narrowly escaped death, everyone was still shaken.

"Dad, I'll take you out of here…"

Li Aiguo helped Li Yunlong up.

"I'm not going anywhere! If I can't resolve this mess, I'd just be a disgrace if I left!"

"I beg you, please don't be stubborn!"

"Ding!"

"Handong Province's Lin Mo has reached the Zhenhun General bottleneck. Issue him a breakthrough Netherworld Envoy quest? Yes/No."

At this moment, Li Yunlong's phone rang.

"Lin Mo?"

"He's still alive?"

Li Yunlong suddenly remembered Lin Mo, the young man he was supposed to meet earlier.

He hadn't expected that despite the dungeon taking such a huge hit, Lin Mo was unharmed.

Instead, he continued to grow stronger, now reaching an experience bottleneck.

Given this, Li Yunlong didn't hesitate and immediately edited a breakthrough quest.

"Advancement Quest: Slay a mastermind who invaded the Great Wall Watch dungeon."

Although Li Yunlong had now retired and stepped down from the Mingsha Ghost Emperor peak realm,

his strength was far from what it once was.

However, his prestige within the country was still quite high.

He had significant decision-making power regarding personnel promotion assessments in the southeastern region.

For advancement quests of the Netherworld Envoy level, he had the right to personally compose them.

"Please compose the reward: ________"

"Dad, what are you doing?"

"Approving work. Another kid is about to break through a bottleneck…"

Li Aiguo craned his neck to look, and immediately exclaimed in shock, "Dad! You can give this to others!? This is our family's…"

Li Yunlong slapped his son on the back of the head.

"What's mine is mine to decide! Besides, this Lin Mo didn't die in the dungeon and even broke through. Like that person in the sky just now, he's a good prospect and must be cultivated with importance!"

"Don't chatter in front of me! Unless you're my dad one day!!!"

...Above the dungeon.

Lin Mo sat in the sedan chair, looking a bit irritated. The Queen Jingjue beside him peeled a crystal-clear lychee and fed it to Lin Mo.

"What's going on? There's no advancement option on the app, and I haven't found any information about advancing to Netherworld Envoy online."

Just as Lin Mo thought he was destined to never advance further in this life,

the Moving Corpse Master app backend sent a message.

"Confidential Message: Founding General Li Yunlong has prepared an advancement quest for you: 'Slay a mastermind who invaded the Great Wall Watch dungeon.' Accept?"

Oh my, I've been waiting for ages.

It's finally here.

It turned out to be a quest personally sent by Old General Li Yunlong, one of the ten founding generals often interviewed on TV.

It seems that

reaching the Netherworld Envoy stage means the country will take it quite seriously.

He clicked to accept the quest.

"Quest accepted. Time limit: 48 hours."

"Quest Reward: Netherworld Envoy realm, one high-level realm secret manual."

There are even higher-level secret manuals?

He had never heard of this.

Logically, he should have learned all the secret manuals already.

However, on second thought, since it was an order personally issued by one of the ten founding generals,

then he naturally possessed some unknown secrets, and perhaps there were indeed higher-level secret manuals… Lin Mo pulled his thoughts back.

Now there was a more pressing issue: finding the true invader behind the scenes within 48 hours.

And killing him.

After all, this Night Parade of One Hundred Demons released so many ghosts. If it wasn't someone deliberately causing trouble,

such a strange thing would simply not happen… "Mingsha Ghost Emperor, Netherworld Lord, Queen Jingjue, now the three of you split into left, center, and right paths. Kill the manipulator as soon as you see him."

"As you command, My Lord!"

"As you command, My Lord!"

"As you command, My Love!"

At the same time, Lin Mo raised the Skeleton Scepter and summoned a sea of thousands of skeletons for defense.

He prepared to search for the hidden manipulator inch by inch.

But just then,

the dungeon's terrain at the array core changed drastically… The space of the Blade Mountain Hell quickly folded.

Immediately after, the Eight Inner Gates combined, forming a rift descending from the sky.

Suddenly, the rift shattered open, and a giant blood-red eyeball abruptly appeared.

Countless black dots on the eyeball swarmed down like secreted tears.

Looking closely,

each of these was an immense number of ghosts… Lin Mo frowned.

It seemed the opponent had gone all out, throwing everything in… not even bothering to hide anymore.

Just as more monsters were about to land,

Queen Jingjue also met the gaze of the eyeball in the sky.

Immediately, the dungeon's SAN value alarm sounded again… "Aoo~ !"

-30,000,000

-30,000,000

...-30,000,000

The big eyeball in the sky suddenly constricted its pupil, and countless damage numbers and black blood flowed out.

"My Love, there's someone inside…"

Queen Jingjue withdrew her charming gaze, her eyes resting on Lin Mo's strong chest.

"There's such a good thing?"

Lin Mo also chuckled… It seemed he didn't need to search anymore.

There was a target to hunt right in front of him.

As long as he killed him, he could successfully advance to Netherworld Envoy.

It could only be said that the enemy, like a desperate gambler, had thrown all his chips onto the table.

Then,

Lin Mo would take all these chips… The bone horse swooped down, and the Netherworld Lord condensed a giant profound ice thorn in her hand.

She suddenly pierced the eyeball in the sky, and then Lin Mo entered it… At this moment… within the first main checkpoint dungeon… on a dilapidated building.

A man clutched his bleeding left eye, his brows tightly furrowed.

"Damn it, a guaranteed win was messed up!"

Forget it, forget it, there's still a chance next time.

Anyway, he had already submitted his pledge.

If the Dragon Country side lost, there was still the Sakura Country side to defect to.

However,

he had just used ghost transfer to open the dungeon's eye.

Not only did it fail, but blood coagulated in his eye.

His head felt as if countless tentacles were whipping every nerve.

He twisted open a tube of tranquilizer from his pocket.

And plunged it into his thigh.

But even so,

the pain in his head did not lessen in the slightest.

His face was grim, and he wanted to return to a safe area immediately… Suddenly,

countless black tentacles burst from his bleeding eye… "Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

A strange carriage leaped out from it… He endured the pain, wanting to immediately get away from this bone-horse monster carriage, which he wasn't sure was an illusion or not… But alas,

three powerful pressures surrounded him.

"Tiangang Corpse!!!"

A surprised voice came from behind him.

"Nangong Yunfei?"

Suddenly, Nangong Yunfei turned his head.

He had seen this person before; it was a new dungeon controller, seemingly named Lin Mo… He was grateful for his photographic memory, which allowed him to remember Lin Mo's name… "Lin Mo, you're still alive! It's very dangerous here. I've already opened an exit on the side. Hurry and leave!"

"Don't mind me!"

"Wouldn't that be bad? What about you if I leave?"

Lin Mo's lips curved into a slight smile…
