Liu Chengfeng, questioning the meaning of life

"The post title says it's free, so why is there a paid attachment at the end?" Luo Yushang asked, crossing her arms. "This isn't very kind of you."

Lin Yuan looked up. "You're mistaken there."

"My post is free, and all Professionals can read it, right?"

Luo Yushang nodded. "But there's a paid attachment inside."

"Hey, that's just the attachment that costs money; what does that have to do with the post itself?" Lin Yuan shrugged, pointing at his phone.

"I've already written the monster information, BOSS skills, and positioning in detail within the post."

"I only put a tiny bit of content regarding the final BOSS into the attachment."

"That content doesn't even account for one percent of the entire post."

"Pricing it at 500 is just a token gesture."

"Whether you buy it or not doesn't affect clearing the Dungeon."

After saying this, Lin Yuan added to himself: It only doesn't affect me.

Luo Yushang was amused by Lin Yuan.

"The most important part of the entire guide is the content in the attachment."

"Professionals who see the attachment and those who don't will experience two completely different difficulties once they enter the Dungeon."

"You really are..."

Luo Yushang didn't know how to describe Lin Yuan. If she called him cunning, he had put a lot of effort into organizing the guide. If she called him selfless, he had charged for the most crucial essence of it. He wasn't the type to easily suffer a loss.

Luo Yushang sighed, took out her phone, and called Lin Yandong.

"President Lin, please take a look at the Professional Forum and pin the post Lin Yuan just released."

"Yes, he has published the guide for the regional Dungeon."

After hanging up, at the very top of the Tianfeng City Professional Forum, the post Lin Yuan released was pinned, and it was also tagged as an essential post by the Professionals Association, personally verified by President Lin and several other big shots.

To verify it, Lin Yandong and these others had genuinely spent money to view the attachment's content.

Damn it, this kid is truly cunning! This was the thought in the minds of all the big shots who had seen the attachment.

Since Lin Yuan was the only one who had cleared it, and since his price wasn't high—500, the cost of a single meal—and the crucial point was that the guide he provided was almost like feeding you directly, like a nanny-level guide. He deserved to earn this money.

The changes to the Professional Forum made many Professionals curious. Previously, the pinned post on the Tianfeng City Professional Forum had been the scene of Liao Chen winning third place in last year's City Martial Arts Tournament, but it had suddenly changed to a guide post.

Professionals clicked in to read it and were immediately shocked. They began calling their friends to come and see.

"Quick, open the Professional Forum! Don't say anything, don't ask anything, just look!"

"Brother, stop queuing for a moment, hurry up and call your teammates to look at the pinned post on the Professional Forum."

"Shocking! Nanny-level guide for the regional Dungeon, teaching you step-by-step how to clear the Fierce Mountain Dynasty Ruins, saving you ten years of detours."

"The strongest Summoner in history, Great God Lin Yuan, has appeared! Come and worship!"

Word spread quickly. In less than 10 minutes, all Professionals in Tianfeng City between level 15 and 20, except for those who had entered the Dungeon, were quietly reading the guide post. The east side of the first floor, which had been very noisy just moments ago, was now so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

At the Dungeon entrance, a warrior named Zhang Yang quickly finished reading the guide. When he scrolled to the end and saw that the attachment required payment to view, he turned to look at his teammates. "Hey, did you buy the paid attachment?"

"Who's going to buy that thing?"

"This guide is already very detailed; the attachment is just notes for the final BOSS."

"With our team's strength, it'll be a struggle to even see the final BOSS, so why waste that money?"

"You're right." Zhang Yang thought about it and felt his teammate made sense. But then he thought, if the person who posted it had already been so detailed, why create a paid attachment? Wouldn't it have been better to just make the whole post paid?

Zhang Yang became increasingly curious about the content inside the attachment. Buy it! Anyway, it was only 500, the cost of a single potion.

After reading the content in the attachment, Zhang Yang's expression was very excited, but he didn't make a scene. Instead, he whispered to his teammates, "Hurry up and pay to buy the attachment content."

"As soon as you're done, we're entering the Dungeon."

Hearing Zhang Yang be so serious, the teammates all bought the attachment. After reading it, their expressions were the same as Zhang Yang's.

"Holy shit!"

"This..."

"There's actually such a way to clear it!"

"500 is so worth it!"

"Great God Lin Yuan is awesome!"

Zhang Yang scanned the area and whispered, "Keep it down."

"Have you memorized the guide? Once you have, let's hurry into the Dungeon."

The teammates were extremely excited. "Let's go!"

"Let's strive to get the first clear of the adventure difficulty today!"

As Zhang Yang's team walked toward the Dungeon, Zhao Xiong had already led his people into the Dungeon. As a witness to the entire process of Lin Yuan instantly killing Fierce Mountain, Zhao Xiong had 100% faith in Lin Yuan.

The moment the guide appeared, Zhao Xiong had already had the members of the Assault Team pay to buy the attachment content. The Assault Team led by Zhao Xiong was challenging the Nightmare difficulty this time, because Liu Chengfeng and his group were also challenging the Nightmare difficulty.

Liu Chengfeng and his group didn't have a guide and were facing the complete form of Fierce Mountain; they were almost beaten to tears. Zhao Xiong was different; with the complete guide and the help of Gao Wen, they arduously defeated the final BOSS, Fierce Mountain.

Two hours later, Liu Chengfeng and his group appeared outside the Dungeon, bruised and swollen. They had been wiped out. If not for the God's Blessing affix, these people would already be dead.

"Captain, the final BOSS Fierce Mountain is just too difficult."

"After entering the second phase, the Zombie Phantoms are too troublesome. Four appear at once; our damage output isn't enough, and our healing can't keep up."

"I really don't know how the Assault Team managed to clear it before."

Liu Chengfeng stood at the Dungeon entrance, scanning his surroundings, wanting to find Lin Yuan.

"Today we weren't prepared enough; we'll come back tomorrow."

"I underestimated the difficulty of the regional Dungeon, but it doesn't matter. I've already adapted to the attack rhythm of the final BOSS, Fierce Mountain. If we try a few more times, we'll definitely be able to clear it."

"We are the elites of Shanhe City; how could we possibly lose to people from a second-rate city like Tianfeng City?"

Before he could finish speaking, a regional notification of a Dungeon clear appeared in everyone's ears.

[Congratulations to Zhao Xiong, Zheng Yu... and 25 Professionals for clearing the Fierce Mountain Dynasty Ruins (Nightmare difficulty), taking 1 hour and 58 minutes.]

[Congratulations to Zhang Yang, Li Chen... and 25 Professionals for clearing the Fierce Mountain Dynasty Ruins (adventure difficulty), taking 1 hour and 59 minutes.] [Congratulations...]

The clear notifications appeared near Liu Chengfeng's ears like a spam feed, and Liu Chengfeng was completely bewildered.

"What's the situation?"

"What happened!"
