69: A-level hidden mission, Thief Pedro.

Before he had taken two steps, Chen Beixuan was called out.

"Master Chen, wait a moment!"

"Captain Papachee requests your presence."

The messenger ran over, panting, and said.

Chen Beixuan pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"Alright, please lead the way."

The messenger was immediately flattered and waved his hands repeatedly.

"No trouble at all, it's my honor to lead the way for you."

"If you hadn't descended like a divine soldier yesterday, I might have died long ago. This little thing is nothing."

Chen Beixuan smiled at his words and said no more, following him to meet Papachee.

Captain Papachee's living quarters were no different from the soldiers', only his tent was slightly larger.

Building luxurious living quarters in such a desolate place was meaningless.

"Captain, the person has been invited."

"Good, you may leave."

The messenger retreated, leaving only the two of them in the tent.

Chen Beixuan's heart stirred, and he cast his Reconnaissance Technique again.

Holy Light Archer · Papachee: 60th level Golden BOSS

Health: 1,100,000

Attack: ???

Defense: ???

...

Danger Level: Extremely Fatal!

——

"1.1 million... Golden BOSS..."

Chen Beixuan pursed his lips; the stats were truly exaggerated.

Previously, his level was too low, and he could only detect the 60th level.

Now at 35th level, he could only see the health, so it wasn't hard to imagine how strong Papachee was.

His attack likely approached ten thousand.

Recalling the past, the Evil Shadow Demon Kalis, suppressed under Fengshi Mountain, was probably only at this level.

In other words, Papachee's strength was already comparable to that of the Twelve Demon Generals.

While browsing the forums, he learned that above the Demon Generals were Demon Lords and Demon Gods.

Their health would probably be in the tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions.

"Hmph, I'll chop you all down sooner or later..."

"Hmm? What are you mumbling about?"

Papachee was scrutinizing Old Man Chen's appearance when he heard him muttering and couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Cough, nothing. Is there something you need me for?"

Chen Beixuan raised a hand and lightly coughed, changing the subject.

Papachee's attention was indeed drawn by his words, and after thinking for a moment, he asked,

"Your meritorious deeds are enough for you to leave. What are your thoughts?"

He stared intently at Old Man Chen's face, trying to catch every subtle change.

But Chen Beixuan didn't even think about it and spoke directly.

"I'm not leaving."

"Not leaving? It's so dangerous here. Don't you want to go home?"

"...The nation comes before the family."

"Hiss..."

Papachee gasped, looking at him in shock.

He never expected it.

The old man's ideological awareness was actually so high!

Well done, truly well done!

You are impressive!

Seeing Papachee's shocked expression, Chen Beixuan secretly chuckled.

With thousands of years of splendid Chinese history, just a couple of lines can be a dimension-reducing strike.

He hadn't completed the million meritorious deeds yet, nor had he visited the treasure vault, so how could he just leave like this!

Papachee revealed a relieved smile, slammed the table, and said,

"Good, I truly didn't misjudge you!"

"I've decided. You will lead the exploration team into the Demon Realm to carry out a mission. If you can complete it, you can pick anything you want from the treasure vault!"

[Ding! Papachee has issued you an A-rank hidden quest [Deep Dive into the Demon Realm]. Do you accept?]

[Deep Dive into the Demon Realm]: A-rank Hidden Quest

Quest Description: The Demon Realm is preparing a large-scale offensive. You must buy time for the Human Realm's army mobilization.

Quest Requirements: Destroy the Dusk City Teleportation Array in the Demon Realm (0/5).

Quest Time Limit: Within 8 hours.

Quest Reward: Choose any 1 treasure from the treasure vault.

Note: Death in the Demon Realm will result in direct offline status, and you cannot log in on the same day.

——

After reading the quest description, Chen Beixuan raised an eyebrow.

The danger of the Demon Realm was unquestionable.

If even the Human Realm had powerhouses like Papachee guarding it, let alone the Demon Realm.

Moreover, Papachee was not the city lord, just a captain.

The city lord of Dusk City would probably be a Diamond-level BOSS.

The death penalty was also very severe, probably another special world rule.

However, the bigger the waves, the more valuable the fish; risk and reward coexist.

He had the strength and confidence, so he wasn't afraid at all.

"I want to meet the other members of the team. If their strength doesn't meet my requirements, I'd rather go by myself."

Chen Beixuan stared at Papachee, his gaze unwavering.

Papachee tapped his fingers on the table in thought, recalling the old man's performance on the battlefield.

After a moment, he shouted towards the outside.

"Come! Call the exploration team to see me!"

"Yes!"

A soldier's voice came from outside the tent.

The army's Stationed area was very close, and footsteps were heard a few minutes later.

Whoosh——

The tent curtain was lifted and then fell.

Six figures with distinct styles, both male and female, walked in.

Papachee calmly took a sip of water, put down his cup, and said,

"Everyone's here. Take a look."

Without him saying anything, Chen Beixuan had already started casting Reconnaissance Technique.

To be a member of the exploration team, they all had unique skills and decent strength.

As expected, all six were Silver-level BOSSes, with the highest level reaching 40!

However, his choice surprised everyone!

Chen Beixuan pointed at a short person among the six and said,

"Just him. I don't want anyone else."

Pedro, who was pointed at, looked bewildered.

He was the weakest among the six, so why choose him?!

Even Papachee looked confused.

"Deep Dive into the Demon Realm is no joke. You must think it through."

Chen Beixuan looked at the information in front of him and said with great certainty,

"I've decided. I choose him!"

Divine Thief · Pedro: 30th level Silver-level BOSS

Health: 250,000

Attack: 1800

Defense: 1400

Magic Resistance: 1300

Skills: Stealth, Clairvoyance, Lightning Dash Wolf, Disguise Technique, Steal...

BOSS Specialties:

[Advanced Tenacious Life]: Health +150%.

[Divine Thief]: Steal probability increased by 300%, movement speed increased by 100%.

[Disguise Art]: Disguise Technique effect increased by 100%.

Description: His life motto is, 'If you pass by, you can't leave empty-handed.'

——

Since it was a Deep Dive into the Demon Realm, the best way was to infiltrate with a disguise.

The Black Mist Enshroudment skill he learned earlier would come in handy.

Moreover, this divine thief also had a Lightning Dash Wolf skill, a wide-range speed buff, which was simply a divine skill for retreat!

More people meant a bigger target, which was not conducive to operations behind enemy lines.

Two people were just right!

Papachee stared at him for a while, then nodded.

"Since you have confidence, I won't say much more, just one piece of advice: try your best to come back alive."

Chen Beixuan accepted the quest and said with a smile,

"Definitely."

At this moment, the five people who weren't chosen all breathed a sigh of relief, showing expressions of relief.

Deep Dive into the Demon Realm was almost a nine-deaths-one-life situation.

If they could, no one wanted to go.

Pedro's face was filled with sorrow, as if he had been sentenced to death.

The little person inside him roared frantically.

Oh my god!

Why choose me?!

I don't want to go... Woo woo...

Just then, a wrinkled hand suddenly patted his shoulder.
