Chapter 87: Chapter 87: SS-Rank Talent Reinforcement

"A special Dungeon?"

Hearing Zhu Zhe’s words, Yu Zhun blinked. "Are you talking about something like the [Nether Trial]?"

"The [Nether Trial] is indeed unique, but it isn’t a special Dungeon..." Seeing that Yu Zhun was a bit confused, Zhu Zhe decided to give him a quick lesson. "Dungeons are divided into three categories. The first category is the hidden Dungeon. It requires specific items, methods, and conditions to unlock. Its difficulty is fixed and cannot be adjusted."

Yu Zhun looked thoughtful. It seemed that both the [Nether Trial] and the [Nether Abyss] he had yet to enter belonged to this hidden Dungeon category.

"The second category is the Permanent Dungeon, which is also the most numerous type in the Divine Revelation World. These Dungeons exist stably, have fixed connection points with the world, and allow you to choose your own difficulty level for the raid."

Yu Zhun nodded in understanding. The Dungeons he had cleared through the Dungeon Hall were all Permanent Dungeons. This was arguably the category he was most familiar with.

"The third category is the special Dungeon," Zhu Zhe said slowly. "Special Dungeons are also known as time-limited Dungeons. Unlike the previous two types, these Dungeons only exist for a certain period of time. Once the time is up, they will automatically disappear. Their difficulty is fixed at 3A. The Dungeon level can range anywhere from Level 20 to Level 60, but they are mostly Level 30 and Level 40."

"Compared to Permanent Dungeons of the same level, special Dungeons have two distinct characteristics." Zhu Zhe glanced at Yu Zhun, a look of anticipation flashing in his eyes. "First, the rewards of a special Dungeon are far more abundant than those of a Permanent Dungeon."

"Second, and most importantly..." Zhu Zhe paused for a moment. "Once a special Dungeon is perfectly cleared within the specified time limit, it will become the private property of those who cleared it and will no longer disappear."

"Private property?" Yu Zhun, who had been able to maintain his composure until now, couldn’t help but widen his eyes. "How private are we talking?"

He wondered, "Could a Dungeon actually be claimed as one’s own?" Hearing this, Yu Zhun felt his heartbeat quicken.

"You can understand it as claiming exclusive rights to a Dungeon. From then on, only you and the people you permit will be able to run it." Zhu Zhe looked at Yu Zhun, whose breathing was gradually growing heavy, and a strange look flashed in his eyes. He thought, "That old man Ji Ruoxu really hit the nail on the head."

Indeed, at this moment, Yu Zhun was thoroughly tempted! Claiming a Dungeon for himself—and one with rewards far richer than a Permanent Dungeon at that. He thought, "Wouldn’t the [Godslayer] Guild immediately skyrocket?"

The other four members also revealed tempted expressions. The idea sounded incredibly amazing!

"Hall Master Zhu, just say the word!" Yu Zhun took a deep breath, his voice rising a few pitches. "Where is this special Dungeon?"

For Hall Master Zhu to come all the way here just to tell him this, it had to be because a special Dungeon had appeared and he wanted Yu Zhun to clear it. And as it happened, after hearing the introduction to special Dungeons, Yu Zhun was extremely interested.

"The special Dungeon is [Red Moon Tide]." Zhu Zhe spoke in a deep voice, his tone turning a bit more serious. "It’s a Level 30 Dungeon, and there are only three days left before the time limit ends. I must remind you that eighty-two Advanced Guilds from the thirty-six Main Cities have already attempted to clear it. Among these Guilds, the weakest are Four-star Guilds, and there is no shortage of Five-star Guilds."

"They have sent out all their elites, but as of now, the clear rate for the [Red Moon Tide] Dungeon is a mere two percent. This Dungeon is very dangerous." Zhu Zhe took a deep breath. "Up to this point, a full seven raid teams have met their Burial within the [Red Moon Tide] Dungeon. Knowing all this, do you still want to go?"

"Well..." For once, Yu Zhun hesitated. He turned his gaze toward the other four members. He wanted to try, but he couldn’t lead the other members to their Burial.

"Don’t look at me, I’m definitely going." Ji Xiaoyu crossed her arms over her chest. "I’m a Mage with four pieces of +20 Red Equipment!"

It was true. After acquiring her Magic Staff and helmet, Ji Xiaoyu had successively obtained Epic-grade Armor and accessories, all of which she had her grandfather enhance to the max. The financial power of a rich lady was truly terrifying!

"If we can get our hands on this [Red Moon Tide], Yu Yu’s and my leveling speed will definitely increase a lot, right?" Su Hong said with a chuckle. "Since we’ll benefit from it in the future, it’s only natural that we do our best now."

He didn’t have a full set of Red Equipment, but Su Hong’s Armor had already been swapped for Red Equipment and heavily invested with a +15 Enhancement Degree, causing his tankiness to soar. Although he wasn’t as tanky as Yu Zhun, the Warrior Profession had many useful exclusive skills, so his contributions wouldn’t be any less than Yu Zhun’s.

"I want to join too!" Su Yue forcefully raised her hand. "If you don’t have a Priest, you’ll only be able to drink Life Potions when you get hurt in the Dungeon."

She couldn’t help but mutter, "Those aren’t effective! It takes several seconds for one bottle to fully heal you, and if you get attacked halfway through, the healing is interrupted. You really need a reliable Priest."

"Oh?" Ji Xiaoyu stopped Su Yue, revealing a dangerous smile. "Little Yu Yu, are you very dissatisfied with my [Life Joy Water]?"

Su Yue’s face paled. She panicked, "Crap! I forgot that the rich lady is an Alchemist! Save me, save me, save me!"

"I want to go too." Salas took a deep breath. "I’ll bring all the items I’ve made recently and make sure I don’t drag you guys down!"

"You guys..." Yu Zhun’s expression was somewhat complex. "Alright then, let’s go together!" His gaze grew resolute as he turned to look at Zhu Zhe. "Hall Master Zhu, we’re certain we want to go."

Zhu Zhe was silent for a moment before suddenly letting out a hearty laugh. "Good."

"However..." Zhu Zhe’s gaze swept across the five members of the [Godslayer] Guild one by one. "There’s a slight issue with your team composition. In the [Red Moon Tide], ranged damage dealers play a huge role, so it would be best if you added another physical ranged damage dealer."

"An archer?" Yu Zhun revealed a thoughtful expression. It was true; their Guild still didn’t have a single archer to this day. "Then we’ll recruit one right n—"

"No need." Zhu Zhe smiled. "I will arrange for an archer with an SS-grade talent to assist you. This archer will temporarily join the [Godslayer] Guild and join your raid team to enter the [Red Moon Tide]."

"An SS-grade talent?" Yu Zhun’s eyes lit up. "By ’temporarily join,’ do you mean they’ll leave once we clear the [Red Moon Tide]?"

"Well, about that..." Zhu Zhe’s eyes carried a profound meaning. "That child currently belongs to the Five-star Profession Guild, [Storm Eagle Eye]. If you have the ability to make them stay willingly, then naturally, there won’t be a problem."

"Understood." Yu Zhun nodded slightly, a hint of curiosity welling up inside him toward this archer he had never met.

Beside him, Ji Xiaoyu’s expression gradually grew strange. She thought, "An SS-grade talent... an archer... below Level 30... from the Profession Guild, [Storm Eagle Eye]... The only person capable of meeting all these conditions seems to be that specific individual, right?"
