Dark Thunder Ruins, Ant Nest

"It's a hidden map."

Lin Xuan decisively chose to continue the challenge.

With his attributes and Skeleton Soldierss, all difficulties at the same stage were not an issue.

Click, click—

The jungle, covered in ruins, began to shake.

The previously impassable jungle ahead now had a path opening up.

The dungeon space also began to drift with faint sounds.

"Is this BGM?"

Lin Xuan touched his nose, becoming a little more serious.

He ordered Irena to command the Skeleton Soldierss.

The infantry and archer units formed a battle formation, advancing in a triangular shape.

Of course, he himself was in the back, checking the items that had just dropped.

A Doomsday-level treasure chest.

And with the Lucky Bullet bonus, it was bound to drop something good.

He had roughly glanced at it before; the materials and items were still the same as in a normal dungeon.

There was only Thunderous Stone and a strange stone.

Now, the strange stone had been consumed when activating the hidden mechanism.

Lin Xuan then checked the equipment one by one.

There weren't many pieces of equipment, only two, but their quality was quite good.

One was a red Excellent, and the other an orange Legendary.

The red one was a pair of shoes that could increase physical and casting attack speed by ten percent.

It was considered a top-tier piece of equipment.

He currently had the Raven Set's shoes.

So he didn't need them.

As for the orange one, it was a wristguard.

[Equipment: Thunderous Wristguard]

[Quality: Legendary]

[Effect: Attack +100, Mana +200, Four-dimensional Attributes +3]

[Equip Requirement: All professions level 40 or above]

[Affix: After wearing, grants a Palm Lightning skill that does not occupy a skill slot]

"Universal for all professions, and comes with a separate skill."

Lin Xuan immediately swapped out the wristguard he was wearing.

He had level 60 Mythical equipment for wristguards, bracelets, and robes in his backpack.

This wristguard was good for ambushing people.

It was enough for him to use until level 60.

Within the Dark Thunder Ruins, the types of monsters were no longer Goblins.

Instead, they were various Zombies and Walkers.

Leaping Zombies, Frozen Walkers, Bronze Walkers.

There were a great many of them.

Although Lin Xuan had received a danger warning before entering.

It only made him a little more serious.

As he advanced, Lin Xuan summoned a few more waves of Skeleton Soldierss.

With a force of over a thousand troops.

It only took a dozen minutes to push to the Guardian BOSS.

The BOSS was very large, nearly five meters tall.

But it wasn't a Walker or a Zombie.

It was a blue-skinned Goblin.

According to the creature bestiary, blue-skinned Goblins were considered minister or king level within the Goblin race.

Lin Xuan had removed his Mechanical Eye earlier for Supreme Domination.

So it was inconvenient to check the information now.

Roar—

The blue-skinned Goblin BOSS roared, leaping into the Skeleton Soldiers crowd.

"Seeking death."

Lin Xuan chuckled lightly at this.

The Skeleton Soldiers's weakness was their slow speed and slow attack.

It was hard to get close to the BOSS.

He didn't expect the BOSS to deliver itself.

The blue-skinned Goblin's attack was very high.

And it possessed a very annoying Super Armor.

In this short time.

The Skeleton Soldierss couldn't do much to it.

"My current weakness is that I don't have any Super Armor skills."

"After I go back, I need to look for relevant skill books."

Lin Xuan thought to himself, casually casting Corpse Explosion.

Just then.

A circle of blue-white light aura emanated from beneath the BOSS's feet.

The Skeleton Soldierss caught by the aura were instantly frozen in place.

Even Irena, who was commanding nearby, was also affected.

Freezing Aura, and it was a strong crowd control type!

Lin Xuan timed it perfectly, quickly using Flash's invincibility frame to dodge the attack.

At the same time, he recalled Irena, Silly Cow, and other summoned beasts into his space.

Then.

Boom!

Hundreds of Skeleton Soldierss unleashed Corpse Explosion.

The blue-skinned BOSS instantly lost half its health.

Seizing this opportunity, Lin Xuan cast Bone Cage and Soul Fire.

Interspersing them with arrows from the Archer Skeleton Soldierss.

With a concentrated burst of fire, the BOSS fell in less than ten seconds.

"When I go back, I must find a way for Irena, Silly Cow, and these summoned beasts to become immortal."

"I can't always be worrying about their safety."

Lin Xuan thought of various monsters with life-saving skills.

He arrived at the BOSS's corpse.

The appearance of this BOSS somewhat disrupted his rhythm.

Originally, he planned to use the three Lucky Bullets on the Doomsday-level treasure chests in the three dungeons of the school today.

Seeing this hidden BOSS.

Lin Xuan was somewhat tempted.

Bang—!

Without much hesitation, a Lucky Bullet was fired.

Taking advantage of the luck buff, Lin Xuan opened the treasure chest.

Golden light!

This time, golden light actually appeared!

Lin Xuan quickly checked the dropped items.

There weren't many things, only two.

A golden Mythical armor, and a red Magic Card.

The Magic Card's attributes were decent.

After equipping, it could reduce the casting time and cooldown of one of his skills.

It probably could sell for several million.

Lin Xuan absolutely loved the Mythical armor's attributes.

[Equipment: Frost Light Armor]

[Quality: Mythical]

[Effect: Health +5000, Defense +500, Constitution +10]

[Equip Requirement: Mage, Archer, Assassin professions level 40 or above]

[Affix: Frost Resistance +50%, All Abnormality Resistance +50%, After being attacked, has a chance to trigger a Freezing Aura, the aura can cause a freezing effect!]

This was the first time Lin Xuan had dropped Mythical equipment!

Its attributes were simply heaven-defying!

Frost Resistance and Freezing Aura were one thing.

The important part was all abnormality resistance!

It was practically like always having a weakened version of Super Armor!

"With the two resistances combined, it's one hundred percent frost resistance."

"I remember Coach Qiu from the Freshman Exchange Tournament saying that there's a Frost Witch professional from Sakura Country this year."

"I wonder what she'll think when she sees my hundred percent frost resistance effect."

Lin Xuan thought to himself, equipped the gear, and exited the dungeon.

The settlement prompt appeared.

This Doomsday-level dungeon, plus the hidden map and BOSS.

He gained over a hundred thousand experience at once!

Adding the experience from the previous Difficult, Hell, and Nightmare dungeons.

Lin Xuan's experience bar had already reached ninety-five percent!

"My leveling speed is even faster than I expected."

Lin Xuan nodded silently, very satisfied with Teacher Li Ming's National Server Medal.

Unfortunately, to possess this, one needed to reach at least level 60, participate in the arena ladder matches, and undergo the professional Sequence Battle.

At this time, there were still not many people in the dungeon hall.

In the school forum, there was indeed no record of the Dark Thunder Ruins.

Lin Xuan thought for a moment and decided to run it a few more times.

At least after understanding the trigger mechanism, he would report the hidden map to the school.

Information like hidden mechanisms and hidden BOSSes could earn some Honor Points when uploaded.

Lin Xuan naturally valued these points.

Not to mention the Honor Crystal that could make the school do things.

Even the ordinary Honor Point exchange items had better quality than the academic credit exchange items.

Of course, before that.

Lin Xuan wanted to farm the Dark Thunder Ruins a few times himself first.

The armor's attributes were too overpowered.

Farming a few more pieces would definitely sell for a large sum of money.

After finalizing his plan, Lin Xuan decisively spent academic credits to refresh the dungeon cooldown and entered the dungeon.

Time flew by.

After clearing the dungeon more than twenty times.

Lin Xuan stopped.

The drop rate for the strange stone was very low.

In over twenty runs, he only met the condition to unlock the hidden map once.

And that was by collecting three stones at the Difficult difficulty level.

Even using Lucky Bullet afterward didn't yield another Frost Light Armor.

He checked the time; it was already three in the afternoon.

Lin Xuan decided to switch dungeons.

Fortunately, although he didn't get any overpowered equipment during this time.

He did gain four skill points.

He now had five skill points.

With two more skill points, he could raise Summon Undead to level seven and unlock Skeleton Cavalry!

"With Skeleton Cavalry, plus my current doubled summoned creatures."

"It's almost a small army."

Lin Xuan arrived at the second dungeon for level 40 to 50 at Mingzhu University, the Ant Nest.

This dungeon was quite famous on the Mingzhu University forum.

Because it had two stages.

Stage one allowed level 40 to 49 professionals to enter.

Stage two increased the level by ten.

In fact, at a school of Mingzhu University's caliber.

Two out of the three dungeons in the level 40 to 50 range had two stages.

This was mainly related to the students recruited.

The level of new students each year was generally around level 50.

Dungeons below level 40 were just for those with low entry levels, as well as lifestyle and academic students to transition.

The school's original intention was good.

However, the difficulty of the Ant Nest dungeon was extremely high!

This could be seen from the restricted number of dungeon participants.

The number of players in a team entering had to be five to twelve.

This was already considered a medium-sized dungeon.

"Then I'll start enjoying the five-person reward by myself."

Lin Xuan chuckled, summoning his summoned beasts.

Irena, Silly Cow, Frost Giant Shi Xiaoxiao, and Golden Giant Crocodile.

Including himself, that made exactly five.

"Let's go!"
