31: Chapter The danger level escalates! Everyone is shocked!

"Where are your teammates?"

"He is still in the Corpse Fiend Dungeon."

"Still in the Corpse Fiend Dungeon?"

Several Teachers exchanged glances, seeing confusion in each other's eyes.

"What do you mean?"

Whoosh... Liu Meiqi let out a deep breath. Just as she was about to explain the situation in detail to the Teachers.

Buzz!!!!

The vortex entrance suddenly erupted with dazzling light,

Immediately after, under everyone's shocked gazes, the huge vortex entrance gradually changed from green to blue.

"Why did the color of the Corpse Fiend Dungeon entrance turn blue?"

"What's going on?"

"Doesn't blue represent a Level 3 danger?"

"..."

This change in the Corpse Fiend Dungeon entrance immediately caused a commotion among the students in the camp; they began to discuss it animatedly.

"Silence!"

A vast aura suppressed the entire area, and the noise in the camp immediately subsided.

At the same time, the patrolling army in the camp quickly moved to seal off the Corpse Fiend Dungeon entrance.

"The Corpse Fiend Dungeon's danger level has increased!"

The Teachers were equally shocked at this moment,

As is well known, the color of the Corpse Fiend Dungeon entrance signifies its danger level:

White represents the lowest level, meaning it contains only grunt-level monsters with little danger;

Green represents the presence of boss-level monsters, indicating a certain degree of danger.

And blue represents the presence of leader-level monsters, with a significant increase in danger!

"A leader-level monster must have appeared in the Corpse Fiend Dungeon, which is why the entrance color turned blue."

"But how could a leader-level monster suddenly appear?"

The Teachers looked at each other, full of doubt.

"A hidden boss, someone must have triggered a hidden boss!" Yang Ren said with certainty.

At this moment, Liu Meiqi spoke weakly: "Yes, that's right."

"I was just about to say, after my teammate killed the Corpse Fiend Dungeon boss, he obtained a map to a hidden level."

"So the hidden boss should have been discovered by him."

The Teachers looked at Liu Meiqi in astonishment, their expressions complex.

Originally, a student clearing the dungeon was something to be happy about, but now...

"Nonsense! Is a leader-level monster something you can handle?"

A stern reprimand rang out, not from the Teachers, but from the mouth of a military officer with a resolute expression.

Li Jianxing, the Captain of the Nanjiang City Defense Team, was sent this time to be responsible for maintaining the safety and order of the newly appeared Trial Instance.

"Captain Li." The Teachers all greeted him.

Li Jianxing turned to the Teachers and said, "You should understand the meaning of the change in the Corpse Fiend Dungeon entrance's color."

The Teachers nodded in understanding.

Li Jianxing continued, "This increase in the Corpse Fiend Dungeon's danger level not only means the appearance of leader-level monsters, but the strength of other monsters within the dungeon will also increase accordingly."

"Therefore, after the Corpse Fiend Dungeon changes, we need to conduct further data detection and research, which requires the help of the Teachers. There are some issues that need to be discussed with you."

"It concerns student safety. As long as our three middle schools can help, Captain Li, please feel free to give orders." Wei Qing immediately expressed support, and the other Teachers also echoed him.

"Very good." Li Jianxing nodded. "Teachers, please come with me to the military camp to discuss."

After speaking, Li Jianxing looked at Liu Meiqi: "You come along too and explain the details of what happened."

...

Inside the same Corpse Fiend Dungeon, the factory second-floor passage.

"Qi Yan, you withdraw first, Xiao Li will take your place." Wei Xingyue commanded calmly.

"Mages, archers, drink the mana recovery potion, keep up the output."

"Qi Yan, sit down where you are and meditate, drink a bottle of mana recovery potion, and recover your mana as quickly as possible."

Wei Xingyue's team was kiting monsters in the second-floor passage, clearing the Corpse Fiends on the factory's second floor.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

The archers continuously drew their bows and released arrows, which fell like rain.

Fireball! Ice Blast!

The mages continuously formed hand seals, releasing spells to bombard the Corpse Fiend group ahead.

Moon Slash!

Wei Xingyue swung her greatsword, releasing a huge sword energy that struck directly at the Corpse Fiend group.

Contract - Skill Sharing!

A boy in the team wearing a black robe and holding a scroll whispered.

The next moment,

Another huge sword energy actually appeared in the air.

Boom!

The two Moon Slashes burst out almost simultaneously, clearing all the Corpse Fiends within a three-meter radius in front of the shield.

Under the team's orderly attack, the number of Corpse Fiends was decreasing at an astonishing rate.

Wei Xingyue's team composition was very complete: two front-liners took turns holding the passage, both holding Bronze-grade shields, taking turns blocking the charge of the Corpse Fiend group and containing their offensive.

One mage and one archer, plus Wei Xingyue, the Holy Sword Master, provided powerful fire support from the rear.

Their tactics were the same as Ye Ze's,

The difference was that they were a six-person team,

The tacit cooperation among the six people made killing monsters much easier than Ye Ze doing it alone.

"Everyone, put in more effort, there aren't many monsters left." Wei Xingyue loudly boosted the team's morale.

However, in the very next moment,

Ugh!!! Ah!!!

Ooh ugh!!! Ugh wuu!!!

The Corpse Fiends in the passage suddenly roared in unison.

"What happened?" Everyone exclaimed.

They saw mysterious runes beginning to appear on the arms of the Corpse Demon Workers, some arms emitting black gas,

Some burning with raging flames,

And some emitting a faint black light from their bodies, their skin becoming as hard as iron.

In an instant, the aura of all the Corpse Fiends soared, becoming even more ferocious!!

Ugh ah!!!

They surged downwards like a tide,

Bang!

The huge impact force on the shield actually knocked the knight behind the shield flying.

"Retreat!"

The team quickly retreated to the first floor of the factory,

Ugh ah ah!!!

Wuu ah ah ah!!!

More than twenty Corpse Fiends rushed out from the passage entrance, surrounding the six people.

"Crystallization!" Qi Yan quickly activated the Crystallization skill, covering his body with a layer of crystalline armor.

Sizzle crackle!!!

The sharp claws of the Corpse Demon Workers landed on the crystalline armor, leaving only a harsh sound but failing to break through Qi Yan's defense.

"Nie Yuan!" Qi Yan shouted.

The boy wearing a black robe and holding a scroll quickly cast a spell, and a light flashed at his fingertip.

The next moment—

Light shone on the bodies of the five people, and a layer of crystalline armor actually appeared on all of them.

It turned out that Nie Yuan was a Contractor,

He possessed a powerful skill—Skill Sharing!

He could share the effects of a team member's skills with other teammates.

This was also why Wei Xingyue and the others were so eager to find the Crystallization skill back then.

A Contractor might not be the strongest support class, but it is definitely the most suitable support class for a team, especially in teams built upon the team contract created by the Contractor.

"Why did these monsters suddenly become so strong?"

"Don't worry about that for now, let's kill them first." A hint of killing intent flashed in Wei Xingyue's eyes.

All five were covered in crystalline armor, not fearing close combat with the Corpse Demon Workers.

Protected by the crystalline armor, they directly engaged in close-quarters combat with the Corpse Demon Workers.

Fortunately, the Corpse Fiends on the second floor had been almost completely eliminated by them,

Leaving only the dozen or so in front of them. Under their fierce attacks, the Corpse Fiends fell one after another.

But their expressions did not relax because of this,

Qi Yan looked at Wei Xingyue, "The toxins in the air seem to have become stronger, even the poison resistance potion can barely hold them back."

"Yes, I also feel a wave of soreness in my body."

"Something must have happened in the Corpse Fiend Dungeon space."

"Damn it, we've already cleared the monsters on the second floor, just one step away from clearing the dungeon."

Wei Xingyue cursed unwillingly, but at the moment, they could only withdraw from the Corpse Fiend Dungeon. Even she could feel the toxins eroding her body.

"Let's go."

The five took out random teleportation scrolls. After a ten-second casting time, their figures disappeared from the Corpse Fiend Dungeon...
