I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second - Chapter 730: Horror Urban Legend Instance
The dense vegetation combined with ample sunlight made the oxygen levels in this primeval forest reach an exaggerated degree. The moment Lingyue descended, taking a breath gave Nangong Ling a feeling of being oxygen-drunk.
The vegetation was too dense, making it difficult for Lingyue to descend.
Therefore, when Lin Yi’s group arrived above Wuli, they had no choice but to descend from the air.
There was no need to worry about safety issues.
There were no low-level professionals here, and besides, Lin Yi only needed to think a bit to use his Gravity Manipulation Skills to ensure a safe landing for everyone.
The verdant surroundings flickered without pause for a full six seconds before Lin Yi and the others touched the ground.
“Looks like this dungeon is quite popular!”
The lush canopy completely shielded the scene below.
It wasn’t until they landed on the forest floor that Lin Yi and the others could see the densely packed crowd at the dungeon entrance.
Mist Tales.
There were plenty of strategies for this dungeon; you could even find them on the Shenxiao forums.
The difficulty level of the Soul Suppressing 3-5 dungeon used to be so high that not many dared to attempt it.
But ever since the Blue Star Will grew stronger, the overall strength of Blue Star professionals soared, and this dungeon no longer seemed so out of reach.
A considerable number of people were gathered at the entrance, numbering in the thousands, including War God level experts setting up stalls, selling their labor.
“There’s no helping it. From what I understand, this is a hundred-person dungeon. The difficulty isn’t necessarily high, but the mechanism where a single mistake dooms everyone is too harsh.”
“After all, who knows the skill level of random strangers outside of a fixed team?”
Nangong Ling remained as meticulous as ever.
She did a lot of strategizing before the dungeon began.
Mist Tales—they called it a horror dungeon. How terrifying was it? You’d have to trace back to a thousand years ago on Blue Star.
A thousand years ago, on the tracks of Wuli County, a terrifying legend circulated—Mist Tapir!
It’s a species with no evidence of its existence.
A thing covered in fur, emitting a foul odor, with long arms and legs, immense strength, and incredible speed; in those days, it was a supernatural entity. Just hearing the description was okay.
Nangong Ling couldn’t understand why professionals would be scared out of their wits by this creature.
Clearly following the conditions given by Mist Tales would allow a perfect clearance.
“Miss Nangong, I didn’t realize you were so brave. I hope you don’t get scared later.”
Chubby Feng San said teasingly, seemingly looking for a smack.
Since the dungeon was set as a hundred-person instance, forming a team of a hundred people was no issue.
Amid the noisy shouts, Lin Yi cleared his throat, and his voice spread like a magical sound through the entire dungeon entrance.
“Hey everyone, I’m Lin Yi.”
“Anyone want to team up with me?”
“For free.”
In an instant, even the stall owners were completely captivated by Lin Yi’s voice.
Paying for hired help instantly lost its appeal.
Seeing it was indeed the Xia Dragon God War God, the scene could only be described as fervor— anything less would be understatement.
He is the number one on Blue Star.
Following Lin Yi would eventually lead to success— this catchy phrase had already spread across Blue Star.
Seeing Lin Yi himself, not to mention teaming up with him, was just thrilling.
The dungeon boss of Mist Tales was said to be an invincible presence within the dungeon.
Ordinary challengers could only follow its requirements, hardly daring any other thoughts.
Even the War God level experts escorting others were only proficient in Illusion Techniques.
Watching as team members might deviate from dungeon requirements, they would timely apply their illusions on them, offsetting the fear of the Mist Tapir, ensuring a smooth clearance.
This time, everyone wanted to witness the historical moment when the so-called invincible dungeon boss met Blue Star’s strongest.
The ninety-six lucky people gathered quickly, and after forming the team, Lin Yi used the Descent Invitation to open the dungeon entrance.
A familiar Descent Abyss aura emerged from the dark purple dungeon entrance.
Along with it came a nauseating smell.
Following that eerie, shivering aura, all one hundred professionals entered the dungeon together.
The view before Lin Yi instantly blurred and distorted, but after a few seconds, it cleared again.
Choo choo～
The train’s whistle pierced the pitch-black, silent night, reaching everyone’s ears.
This strange yet familiar sound evoked many memories for Lin Yi.
Soon after, the dungeon announcement sounded.
[Welcome the Will Dominator Mr. Lin Yi to the dungeon. Your arrival graces this dungeon with distinction]
[Please control your emotions in the upcoming challenges and refrain from destroying it]
[Welcome all professionals to the Mist Tales dungeon. Now, we will announce the dungeon rules]
[Rule 1: On the train, no matter what you see, hear, or touch, you must not scream, or the entire team fails the challenge]
[Rule 2: You must not express any malice towards the Mist Tapir, nor attack it. Remember, the Mist Tapir is invincible in the dungeon! If it gets angry, it will directly slay the instigator, and the whole team fails the challenge]
[Rule 3: Regardless of who calls you, do not respond, and under no circumstances should you make eye contact with the Mist Tapir, or it will take you away, and the whole team fails the challenge]
[The Mist Tales train departure is next, with a journey time of two hours. Please prepare to be dominated by fear, fellow travelers.]
The dungeon rules were indeed as mentioned on the forums.
This dungeon, to be honest, is simple.
You just need to cut off your five senses, close your eyes, and take a nap during Mist Tales to clear it smoothly.
But if you say it’s hard, it is indeed difficult.
Among a hundred challengers, if even one person with poor mental fortitude is sought by the Mist Tapir and touches them a couple of times or licks them once or twice, the sickening sensation can shatter their defenses instantly.
Importantly, the Mist Tapir is set as an invincible presence in the dungeon, so much so that even the accompanying War God cannot attack it directly, making it the hardest part of maintaining composure.
In past team dungeons, the atmosphere inside the train was oppressively heavy, but today, everyone, regardless of gender or strength, had a look of anticipation.
Every person wanted to see what the allegedly invincible dungeon boss would be like in front of Lin Yi.
Choo choo!
As the train started moving, the scenery outside the window began changing rapidly.
Thick fog started to appear around the train.
The dungeon had begun!
“Damn, this is exciting!”
“What are you excited about; it’s none of your business. Are you planning to fight that Mist Tapir monster later?”
“I won’t fight; I can’t beat it, but someone will— Lin Yi! That’s Lin Yi! I can already imagine that monster, which has caused me to fail five times, being beaten terribly. It’s so exciting!”
