Chapter 150: Chapter 128: Will Yu Zhun’s Talent Be Exposed?

"Someone’s there," Sheila’s cold voice suddenly rang out halfway through their journey.

Yu Zhun and his party stopped in their tracks at the same time, following the direction of her gaze. In the hazy grey distance ahead, they could faintly make out a small, seemingly moving shadow. If Sheila hadn’t warned them, they probably wouldn’t have noticed it at all. As expected of the [Predestined Arrow]—she was truly terrifying.

The only people active in the Giant Demon Valley were raiding players.

Yu Zhun took the item [Super Far-Seeing Telescope] from Salas and looked toward the shadow in the distance. It was a complete blur.

"Sa, you call this a telescope?"

"Just tell me if it sees far or not!" Sa retorted self-righteously, but upon meeting Yu Zhun’s gaze, he obediently pulled out the [Super Super Super Clear Lens]. He had been humbled.

After attaching the lens, Yu Zhun finally got a clear look at them. But strangely, the other party was also looking in their direction. Had they been targeted right after entering the Dungeon? Yu Zhun couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

"Should I shoot?" Sheila drew her longbow and asked coldly. As long as Yu Zhun gave the word, she would release the bowstring immediately. Given the current distance between them and the passive skill of the [Sniper Hunter], this arrow would instantly take a player’s life as long as the target had no life-saving measures.

Yu Zhun was about to nod when he suddenly caught sight of another figure. His eyebrow twitched upward, and the corners of his mouth curled into a slight smile.

"We won’t attack just yet," he said. "Let’s watch the show."

"Lie Bu, who are those people over there?"

Hearing his teammate’s question, a man who had been peering into the distance withdrew his gaze and spread his hands. "Server 45239."

Laughter immediately erupted within the raiding team. A server with such a high number wasn’t even worth mentioning.

"Don’t drop your guard. I have some impression of this server number. [Blood Rainbow] is from their world," the captain said in a deep voice.

[Blood Rainbow]...

Hearing this codename, everyone’s laughter came to an abrupt halt. That was a name that had once struck terror into the hearts of everyone on the First Turn Red Name List. His Red Name Value had dominated the top of the list, and his red name Light had surged like a monstrous rainbow. Whenever he entered any Dungeon, the blood-red rainbow formed by his name would instantly be seen by all players, acting like an announcement of death.

Rumor had it that in the 4A Dungeons [Blood Rainbow] entered, players from other servers rarely made it out alive. Even the top-ranked Divine Zones couldn’t help but feel a headache when faced with this name. After all, Gods weren’t omnipotent, and even they had no right to intervene in 4A Dungeons.

"He’s been silent for a long time," one of the players said dismissively. "Ever since he dropped off the list after the Second-Turn, we’ve barely heard the name [Blood Rainbow]. He might even be dead. The current king of the First Turn Red Name List is [Red Hot] Abeins from Zone 437. He’s the real nightmare who can scare a crying baby into silence."

The atmosphere in the group eased slightly. That was right—no matter how strong [Blood Rainbow] was, it was all in the past.

"A world with a server number past forty thousand producing even one [Blood Rainbow] is already their limit," another player said coldly. "If his world wasn’t so weak, why would [Blood Rainbow] be so bloodthirsty?"

Hearing this, everyone’s expressions relaxed even more.

"[Blood Rainbow] killed quite a few of our seniors. If these guys are pushovers, we’ll swallow them up first. We can consider it avenging our seniors." A sharp glint flashed in the captain’s eyes as he turned to look at the man keeping watch. "Lie Bu, can you see their talents clearly?"

"Captain, that question really puts me in a tough spot." The man named Lie Bu shook his head. "At this distance, it’s already impressive just to see people."

"Lie Bu, can you even do it?!"

"Is this all your SS-rank talent amounts to?"

"You’re too weak!"

The other members couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter. Of course, this was just playful banter, as they knew very well just how powerful Lie Bu’s talent was.

The SS-rank talent, [Eye of Insight]! It provided a massive Enhancement to one’s vision. Within combat distance, it could see through all of a target’s talents and their corresponding counters! SS-rank talents and lower-tier talents had absolutely no secrets in front of the [Eye of Insight]. Only the higher-tiered SSS-rank talents, due to the suppression of talent priority, could be somewhat exempt from its effects.

But that was only a partial exemption. The [Eye of Insight] couldn’t see through the specific effects of an SSS-rank talent, but it could provide a rough understanding of the corresponding counter-methods! Therefore, it was an ability that even SSS-rank talents had to be somewhat wary of! Although it didn’t provide any direct combat strength boosts, its significance was on a strategic level.

A raiding team that could incorporate the [Eye of Insight] talent was naturally no ordinary team either. Everyone in this raiding team possessed SS-rank and S-rank talents. If it weren’t for the fact that their world didn’t have an SSS-rank talent at this stage, such monstrous geniuses would have likely joined their ranks as well!

This was the strongest Lv40 raiding team in their world!

Faced with his teammates’ teasing, Lie Bu couldn’t help but curl his lips. "Once we’re in combat distance, I’ll naturally be able to see their talents clearly. Don’t tell me you guys are scared?"

As soon as he said this, everyone immediately rolled their eyes. They were the strongest raiding team in their world. There wasn’t a single person in the entire team with a talent lower than S-rank. Moreover, everyone was fully geared with Red Equipment, and some members even possessed one or two pieces of Legendary Equipment.

Scared?

Scared my ass!

"Charge! Let’s take them out!"

The captain waved his arm, and the other members responded enthusiastically. Only the vice-captain, who hadn’t spoken the entire time, had a slight change in expression.

"Wait!"

She was a woman with an SS-rank detection-type talent, and her expression had suddenly become quite solemn.

"Someone is approaching us!"
