Chapter 170: Chapter 138: Mith’s Revenge!
Divine Radiance City, the Moon-devouring Celestial Wolf Guild.
Inside the guild chairman’s office, Liu Xiongfei frowned deeply. He stared at the report in front of him, a helpless expression on his face.
Three days ago, the Level 40 special Dungeon, [Celestial Nether Lone Star], had appeared. As one of the veteran Four-Star guilds, the Moon-devouring Celestial Wolf naturally had to dispatch personnel to attempt to clear it and secure benefits for their guild.
However, the results of the raid were far from ideal.
The special Dungeon [Celestial Nether Lone Star] was a rarely seen type, falling under a specific branch of Mechanism Dungeons—the Rule-based Anomaly Dungeon. For this kind of Dungeon, even veteran guilds lacked raiding experience.
The first three days after a new special Dungeon appeared were known as the trailblazing period. Because the contents were completely unknown during this time, the danger was exponentially higher. Having enthusiastically participated in this trailblazing period, the Moon-devouring Celestial Wolf Guild lost an entire elite raiding team during yesterday’s attempt.
This was a true elite team where every member was fully equipped with +20 Red Equipment. Many of those pieces were communal property of the guild, and all were lost in the Dungeon as well.
Even a Four-Star guild felt the sting of such a massive loss.
The only saving grace was that [Celestial Nether Lone Star], as a special Dungeon, was only a 3A Dungeon rather than a 4A one. The lost players were still alive, merely stripped of their memories related to the raid. Otherwise, a hefty pension payout would have added insult to injury.
"Sigh, I really shouldn’t have let Chairman Yu enter the [Giant Demon Valley] Dungeon so quickly," Liu Xiongfei couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh. "If we could have cooperated with him to raid [Celestial Nether Lone Star], perhaps that raiding team wouldn’t have been lost in there."
He fully recognized Yu Zhun’s raiding capabilities. After all, the young man had perfectly cleared the [Red Moon Tide] and achieved another perfect clear in the [End of the Red Land] during his First Turn trial.
If Yu Zhun had entered [Giant Demon Valley] a little later, Liu Xiongfei would have definitely stopped him upon learning the news of the special Dungeon. That way, his own raiding team might have been saved.
However, there were no "ifs."
Yu Zhun had already entered [Giant Demon Valley]. According to a normal raiding pace, he was probably still fighting with other players over the spring right now...
BAM!
A muffled thud came from outside the door. Striding into the office was Rao Dongyun, the Vice Chairman of the Moon-devouring Celestial Wolf Guild in charge of Dungeon raids.
Already in a foul mood, Liu Xiongfei couldn’t help but frown at his old colleague of many years. "Dongyun, what is it?"
"You... I..." The usually steady Rao Dongyun was now displaying uncharacteristic agitation. His breathing was heavy, and for a long while, he couldn’t form a complete sentence. Finally, he simply strode over to the closed curtains of the office and forcefully threw them open.
The sudden brightness made Liu Xiongfei subconsciously squint. Then, he looked out the window.
In the next moment, his expression froze.
A massive line of Golden text appeared in his line of sight.
That was...
That was!!!
Liu Xiongfei stood up abruptly, looking exceptionally agitated. "When did this happen?"
"Just now," Rao Dongyun finally calmed down a bit, speaking at lightning speed.
"Good! Great!"
The depression of the past few days vanished completely at this moment. Liu Xiongfei let out a hearty laugh, and in the next instant, he vanished directly from the office.
At this time, Yu Zhun and the others shouldn’t have left the Divine Revelation Hall yet. He wanted to personally thank him for delivering such a massive surprise!
***
"The commotion caused by a perfect first clear of a 4A Dungeon is a bit huge."
After arduously dealing with the players from various guilds who had come forward to offer congratulations and try to curry favor with him, Yu Zhun wiped non-existent cold sweat from his forehead and strode out of the Divine Revelation Hall.
Right after, he saw a robust figure approaching with long, vigorous strides and a radiant smile.
"Chairman Liu, you’re here." Yu Zhun smiled and greeted him.
He didn’t even have to guess to know that the man must have been alerted by the server-wide announcement. This worked out well anyway.
"Chairman Yu, this surprise you gave is truly astonishing!" Liu Xiongfei laughed heartily, walking up to give Yu Zhun a bear hug. "A perfect first clear across the entire server for a 4A Dungeon—this kind of glory is rare!"
Thinking about how his own guild members had also participated in the raid and witnessed the entire process, Liu Xiongfei couldn’t hide his excitement.
A brand-new, perfect strategy guide for a 4A Dungeon was now in their hands. He suddenly felt that his guild had really taken massive advantage of the Godslayer Guild. He would have to find a way to repay them later.
As Liu Xiongfei thought this, his gaze naturally fell upon his own members. However, after a quick sweep, the smile on his face faded somewhat.
"Chairman," Zhou Yunhao said in a deep voice. "Wen Yueze and Cen Lei sacrificed themselves during the raid."
"Mhm..." Liu Xiongfei sighed deeply, then spoke solemnly. "The guild will provide their families with ample compensation."
Hearing their chairman’s guarantee, the seven surviving Moon-devouring Celestial Wolf Guild members felt a bit relieved.
"Chairman Yu, come with me to the Moon-devouring Celestial Wolf Guild first," Liu Xiongfei said, looking back at Yu Zhun. "A new server-wide perfect first clear is a major event.
"We have prepared a modest banquet to celebrate your return."
"All right," Yu Zhun nodded slightly.
The group soon returned to the Moon-devouring Celestial Wolf Guild’s headquarters. The guild members who had caught wind of the news all wore joyful expressions.
After all, the server-wide announcement was still hanging in the sky. It was said that such an announcement would persist for a full twenty-four hours before dissipating. Although the announcement only listed the name of the raid leader, Yu Zhun, their Moon-devouring Celestial Wolf Guild had also participated. Naturally, they shared in the honor.
