49: Chapter 49 Shocking the Spiritually Awakened Young Woman for a Whole Year!

The atmosphere in the meeting room grew somewhat delicate due to Director Li Guoan's decision.

A rookie dungeon, going alone, and bringing a thousand Exorcism Talismans?

Tactical Team Leader Zhang Yunhai opened his mouth but ultimately couldn't find the words to speak.

This wasn't tactics anymore; this was carpet bombing.

Director Li Guoan's gaze swept over everyone, his tone brooking no argument.

"There won't be few monsters in a dungeon. Conservatively, buy a thousand first."

He looked at Chen You, his eyes sharp as knives.

"I'll immediately arrange for finance to transfer another billion to you. Comrade Little Chen, do you know what to do now?"

A billion.

One thousand gold coins.

Chen You's heart was no longer stirred, he even felt a little like laughing.

There was a time when he nearly lost his life trying to save a single talisman worth a million.

Now, Director Li didn't even bat an eye, directly giving another billion, just so he could blast a rookie dungeon.

This feeling... was damn good.

"Understood." Chen You nodded heavily, his voice steady and firm.

"Go." Director Li Guoan glanced at the clock on the wall, the hands almost pointing to three in the afternoon. "After finishing this dungeon, come out and rest first."

He spoke of the mission, but a trace of concern flickered in his eyes.

Chen You had been fighting intensively in the game for twenty-six hours straight. Even if a Cultivator's body could withstand it, the mental fatigue was absolutely not small.

"Yes, Director." A warmth spread in Chen You's heart, and he nodded solemnly once more.

...

[Welcome back to the Source Realm, Cultivator.]

Chen You reappeared in the lobby of the Supreme Tower in Zhao City.

Without the slightest pause, he went straight out the door, activated the "Supreme Navigation", destination—the East City Training Ground.

The giant rabbit with snow-white fur and blood-red eyes appeared once more, carrying Chen You in his Daoist robes, transforming into a white streak of lightning as it sped towards the destination.

The East City Training Ground was still bustling with noise and activity.

When that highly recognizable giant rabbit carrying Chen You appeared, it instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"Holy shit! It's that super tycoon!"

"Wasn't he collecting spirit essence sand? Why is he back here?"

"Wait... look at his level!"

A sharp-eyed player pointed at the top of Chen You's head, his voice cracking.

[Chen You]

[Level: 10]

[Race: ???]

[Class: ???]

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding Adventurers' gazes converged in unison on Chen You's level.

Level 10!

The entire training ground instantly fell into dead silence.

Everyone remembered clearly, less than two days ago, right in this very place, this man named Chen You was still LV5!

Back then, he casually tossed out ten gold coins as a bounty for the orc Kage, shocking the entire city.

But that was just financial power after all.

Level was the most genuine hard power in this world!

Going from Level 5 to Level 10, the fastest normal players needed to grind non-stop for ten days to half a month.

And that was with a stable team and ample potions.

But him?

Two days! No, to be precise, less than two days!

What kind of leveling speed was this?

The system's favorite son?!

"Fake, right? Did he use some item to modify his level?"

"Impossible! The Source Realm doesn't have that kind of thing! His level is truly 10!"

"Monster... this guy is definitely a monster! No wonder he could casually take out ten gold coins. This kind of monster probably isn't even from our dimension!"

Intense discussions erupted from the crowd, and the looks directed at Chen You completely changed.

If it was envy, jealousy, and greed before, now there was an added trace of genuine awe and fear from the heart.

Chen You paid no heed to the surrounding clamor.

He walked directly up to Garrison Army Centurion Luo Yi.

Luo Yi's attitude was even more respectful than last time, almost bowing slightly: "Respected Adventurer, you've arrived."

Clearly, Chen You's Level 10 strength had already earned this NPC sufficient respect.

"I'm here to accept a mission." Chen You was concise.

"Yes!" Luo Yi immediately brought up the mission panel.

[Mission: Threat of the Wraiths]

[Mission Requirement: Enter the [Wailing Valley] dungeon and defeat the final boss.]

[Mission Reward: EXP +20000, Zhao City Reputation +3000]

[Required Level: LV10]

[Accept?]

"Accept."

The moment the system prompt sounded, Chen You turned and left, summoning his giant rabbit mount once more without the slightest hesitation.

He was going to [Wailing Valley]!

This thought spread like an electric current through the minds of every Adventurer present.

"Hurry, follow him! He's going to run [Wailing Valley]!"

"Alone? He'll definitely need a team! This is our only chance!"

"Damn, if I could team up with the super tycoon, forget the clear rewards, just the scraps falling from his fingers would be enough for me to live on for a year!"

"Charge! If we're late, we won't even get a sip of the soup!"

In an instant, all players above Level 10 on the training ground, like sharks smelling blood, frantically chased after the direction Chen You had left.

They firmly believed that no matter how strong this super tycoon was, he couldn't possibly solo a five-person difficulty dungeon alone.

He must be going to the dungeon entrance to find teammates right now!

This was a heaven-sent opportunity!

A large group of players below Level 10, thinking "it'd be a huge loss not to join this spectacle", also surged after them.

...

At the same time, at the West Gate of Zhao City.

A beautiful figure had just finished several hours of tedious monster grinding and returned to the city.

It was precisely the person in charge of the Moon Gods Radiance Guild in Zhao City, Yue Ying.

She rubbed her slightly tired temples. Although the process was boring, the harvest was decent, bringing her a step closer to Level 16.

But as soon as she reached the city center, she saw an extremely spectacular sight.

Hundreds of Adventurers were sprinting from the city center towards the city gates.

The momentum made it seem as if something earth-shattering had happened.

"What's going on?" Yue Ying frowned slightly and gave a look to the guild member beside her.

That Elf God Clan member understood, quickly stopped a panting werewolf, handed over two copper coins, and asked a few questions in a low voice.

Moments later, he returned to Yue Ying's side, his expression extremely odd, and reported:

"Steward, they say... that human player named Chen You is going to run [Wailing Valley]."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, the corner of Yue Ying's mouth curled into an expected arc.

"He's finally willing to come out of seclusion, huh? It seems he can't withstand the pressure of leveling up and is preparing to get carried."

"Good, just in time to let him see what our [Moon Gods Radiance]..."

Her words stopped halfway.

She saw the expression on that subordinate Elf's face. It wasn't just odd; it carried a hint of shock.

Going to run [Wailing Valley] meant...

"What?" Yue Ying's heart skipped a beat, and she asked again, somewhat uncertain.

That Elf swallowed hard, his voice dry: "Steward... that Chen You, he... he's already Level 10."

The composure and calm on Yue Ying's face instantly froze. Her beautiful star-like eyes suddenly widened, filled with disbelief.

Level Ten?!

How was that possible!

Two days ago, he was only Level Five!

Even she, leading the entire guild's elite support team, grinding monsters day and night, needed about ten days to accomplish that.

He, alone, staying in the Supreme Tower for less than two days, skyrocketed from Level 5 to Level 10?

This had completely surpassed her understanding of the game's rules!

"False information!" Yue Ying instinctively denied it.

"It must be false information! He must have used some method to fake his level, trying to attract people to team up!"

However, that subordinate shook his head and said with a bitter smile:

"No, Steward... hundreds of people at the East City Training Ground saw it with their own eyes. It's absolutely true."

"Now, everyone thinks he's going to the dungeon entrance to form a team, and they've all chased after him."

Yue Ying's breath hitched.

The wisdom and strategy she prided herself on, at this moment, seemed like a joke.

She was still here calculating how to monopolize resources, how to manipulate the other party.

But the other party had already, in a way she couldn't comprehend or imagine, soared directly to the clouds!

"Go! To [Wailing Valley]!"

Yue Ying's voice was icy and piercing.

She waved her hand sharply, mounted her white tiger steed, and galloped towards the city gates.

She didn't believe it!

She had to see it with her own eyes!
