92: Sequence 69 - Son of Frost

Ning Fengya's expression made Red Wine and the other two also notice the abnormality about Lin Du.

"You, your level, how did it suddenly become Level 29?!"

Red Wine was greatly startled.

Before leaving the Ye Clan Merchant Guild, she clearly remembered Lin Du's level was 27.

Now, just by drilling a hole, he actually jumped two levels?

This was a bit too exaggerated!

Lin Du smiled, spreading his hands, "Perhaps, I am just the Son of Destiny!"

Lin Du had designed the stone cave for fun in his previous life when he was bored; it housed a Level 30 hidden boss.

Lin Du had designed many such small things in his previous life, and this was just one of them.

The boss in the cave would not drop precious equipment; it only dropped a large amount of experience points!

Lin Du had originally planned to challenge the Supreme Secret Realm at Level 27, but when he passed by the stone cave, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, which made him stop.

This could be considered an unexpected surprise!

As for the two high-level pieces of equipment in his hands?

Cough, cough!

That was a bit of a coincidence.

Originally, a team of players had also discovered this boss, but they couldn't defeat it and were almost killed by it.

Lin Du generously stepped in to help this team of players kill the boss.

To thank Lin Du for saving their lives, this team of players gave him the two most valuable pieces of equipment they had.

This explanation is very reasonable, right?

Red Wine looked at the smug expression on Lin Du's face, wishing she could go up and slap him twice.

Son of Destiny?

There weren't that many coincidences in universe ol.

This was clearly something premeditated, with the location scouted in advance!

Red Wine was so annoyed; if she had known, she would have let Scorpion Tail Needle and Baili Xuancang go into the cave to explore.

But it wouldn't make much difference!

Two high-level pieces of equipment and two level ups still wouldn't change Lin Du's inevitable loss... The group continued on their journey.

Miss Bu Dong sidled up to Lin Du and quietly asked, "Black-Hearted Boss, what happened in that stone cave just now?"

Miss Bu Dong's voice wasn't loud, but it didn't escape the ears of those around them.

Everyone perked up their ears!

Lin Du glanced playfully at the eavesdroppers around him.

"This matter is quite interesting, actually."

"When I entered the cave just now, I found a Humanoid Monster hunched in a corner muttering to itself. Driven by curiosity, I leaned in to listen..."

Miss Bu Dong looked at Lin Du blankly, "What did the monster say?"

Lin Du grinned.

"The monster said: Eavesdroppers will swallow a thousand needles!"

(How awkward~)

...The group soon arrived near Violent Bear Ridge.

As they entered the Violent Bear Ridge area, more and more players appeared, all generally heading in one direction.

Seeing Lin Du's group, many players began to whisper.

There were new analyses and interpretations regarding Night Ember traveling with three beautiful women... The group followed the main contingent of players and soon arrived at the highest peak of Violent Bear Ridge.

The peak was already overflowing with people!

Above a rock shaped like a violent bear, a dark, swirling vortex, ten meters in diameter, hung in mid-air.

The vortex spun rapidly, making people dizzy!

As Ning Fengya and Red Wine passed, the surrounding players quickly made way, and the group soon reached the front of the vortex.

Red Wine glanced at the dense crowd around her, a charming smile gracing her lips.

"There are quite a lot of people here today."

"Night Ember, with so many people witnessing our bet, you must be very happy, right?"

After scanning the vortex a few times, a strange expression appeared on Lin Du's clown mask.

"Miss Red Wine, seeing how beautiful you are, how about I give you a chance to back out?"

"As long as you apologize to me obediently, I can consider canceling our contract!"

Red Wine seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world, and the smile on her face grew even more triumphant.

"Are you scared? It's too late to back out now!"

"Sigh," Lin Du let out a faint sigh, "Since you don't appreciate it, then forget it."

...As the two spoke, many surrounding players looked over.

A high-ranking executive from Rule the World, accompanied by five young players with impressive demeanors, approached Ning Fengya.

"Hall Master, these five are the high-sequence new players we've found during this period."

"Do you have any instructions?"

Ning Fengya shook her head expressionlessly, "Just be careful, and if you encounter danger, actively withdraw!"

Ning Fengya knew the horrors of the Supreme Secret Realm well; she didn't expect these five players to clear the dungeon at all.

Wanting to clear it was simply a fantasy!

Under the gaze of countless surrounding players, the five players from Rule the World stepped into the vortex.

Time passed by minute by minute.

In less than three minutes, a huge fluctuation came from the vortex.

Bang—

Bang, bang—

Five figures flew out of the vortex in disarray, violently crashing onto the ground.

The five individuals who were so spirited just now were now in a sorry state, their clothes tattered.

Beneath their clothes, ghastly wounds were clearly visible... The surrounding onlookers gasped.

The elite team put together by Rule the World couldn't even last three minutes; it was truly terrifying.

Beside them, the challengers from other major powers felt their hearts sink.

Several top major powers on the leaderboard could only bite the bullet and send players to challenge.

Without exception, these high-sequence young players couldn't even last one or two minutes... At this moment, the crowd suddenly parted.

A tall, bald player, leading a team, walked to the front of the vortex.

The bald player's game ID was "Tony Tony," and the five players behind him all had arrogant gazes and outstanding talent.

Besides their impressive demeanor, the equipment worn by these five players was also very eye-catching.

Most of these pieces of equipment emitted an orange glow (SS-rank), with the worst reaching purple (S-rank).

The male player at the front, emanating a chilling aura, even wore two pieces of equipment glowing with golden light!

SSS-rank!

This group was none other than the super elites of Peak of the Forbidden City.

The surrounding onlookers were all astonished by this lineup.

"Peak of the Forbidden City truly lives up to its name as the most profoundly established major power; just creating these top-tier pieces of equipment must have cost a fortune!"

"It seems Peak of the Forbidden City is determined to win this time."

"Did you see the player in golden equipment at the very front? As far as I know, he seems to have awakened the Sequence 69 class—Son of Frost!"

"Once the Son of Frost levels up, he can freeze an entire area. With him leading the team, Peak of the Forbidden City's chances this time are very, very high..."
