Chapter 92: A Strategy No One Has Ever Used

Chapter 92: Chapter 92: A Strategy No One Has Ever Used

Only when the six members of the [Godslayer] guild disappeared into the entrance did the stagnant atmosphere of the encampment quietly dissipate.

The experts of [Assassin’s Creed] flicked their daggers and quietly vanished from their spots one by one, but no one present dared to act rashly. Heaven knew if they had left or used [Lurking] again.

The experts of [Storm Eagle Eye] and [Arcane Roar] exchanged a glance and calmly retreated to their own guilds’ encampments.

The storm seemed to have subsided, but everyone present knew it was only temporary. The Divine Revelation Hall had ignored the importance of special Dungeons, casually arranging for a weak guild to enter one. This was completely unjustifiable! Unless... that weak guild actually achieved a perfect clear, proving the Divine Revelation Hall’s choice right and leaving everyone speechless.

But, was that possible? The very moment this thought popped into the minds of all the experts present, they immediately dismissed it.

It was a complete joke. So many powerful guilds had sent out full-sized raiding teams composed of elite players, yet none could conquer [Red Moon Tide]. A mere six-person raiding team from a Two-Star guild wanted to conquer [Red Moon Tide]? Let alone conquering it, whether they could even make it out alive was a question!

At this thought, the eyes of the various guild executives who had just been suppressed flickered with sharp glints. Although they had temporarily yielded, this matter would not end here! Once that tiny [Godslayer] guild failed and exited or died inside, it would be their time to condemn the Divine Revelation Hall!

[Welcome to the Special Dungeon: Red Moon Tide (3A)]

[The Dungeon rules are as follows:]

[1. All rewards within the Dungeon are settled immediately.]

[2. Death within the Dungeon is considered death in the Divine Revelation World.]

[Those who look directly at the Red Moon, die!]

"Such a concise Dungeon introduction. It reveals way too little information," Yu Zhun couldn’t help but shake his head.

"Everyone, stay alert. Absolutely do not look up at the Red Moon!"

"Understood!" The guild members nodded vigorously.

Having been stopped at the Dungeon entrance, they were all holding back a belly full of anger. This anger could only be dispelled by achieving a perfect clear of [Red Moon Tide].

The most important rule in the [Red Moon Tide] Dungeon was that players could not look directly at the Red Moon. Just as the Dungeon introduction stated, players who looked directly at the Red Moon would die instantly and lose their Divine Revelation qualifications, a consequence of extreme severity. However, they did not need to worry about this for the time being because the Red Moon Soaring had not yet occurred.

It was still dusk. The six of them were situated in a desolate, deathly still plain. Over a dozen kilometers away from them stood a magnificent giant tower that pierced straight into the clouds like a pillar of heaven. This giant tower was named the [Moon Inquiry Celestial Tower], serving as the location of the second plot node in [Red Moon Tide]. At their speed, they could easily arrive there before dusk ended and the Red Moon Soaring began.

But there was a very important problem. The item that could allow them to end the Dungeon and leave early, the [Azure Pearl], was located in the first plot node, the [Red Tide Plain], which was exactly where they were right now. And the [Azure Pearl] would only manifest during the Red Moon Soaring. Therefore, if they wanted to obtain the [Azure Pearl], they had to wait here for the Red Moon Soaring.

However, during the Red Moon Soaring, the [Red Tide Plain] would spawn not only the departure item but also countless Demonized Creatures. They would burrow out from beneath the cracked earth under the illumination of the Red Moon. Like an endless tide, they would surge toward the outsiders from every corner of the plain, impossible to eradicate completely. They were truly endless.

Some raiding teams had tested it; the dead Demonized Creatures would be swallowed by the earth, only to reappear as identical Demonized Creatures. On one side was safely skipping the first plot node but being unable to obtain the teleportation departure item, meaning they could only leave by clearing the Dungeon. On the other side was a dangerous demon tide, but it would grant them the ability to teleport out of the Dungeon midway. This was the first welcoming gift [Red Moon Tide] gave to its raiders!

"We’ll wait for the Red Moon to arrive." Leaving behind a simple sentence, Yu Zhun looked around and chose the most central area of the plain to stay temporarily. Perhaps to prevent raiders from memorizing the location of the [Azure Pearl], its spawn point during the Red Moon Soaring was completely random. Yu Zhun didn’t know where it would be either, so staying in the center of the plain was actually the safest move.

The other five followed closely behind Yu Zhun, waiting quietly until Salas suddenly opened the conversation.

"Guild Leader, while we were waiting for the [Embers] guild to come out earlier, I finished reading the strategy guide you sent us." He looked at Yu Zhun with a serious expression. "Are you... sure you want to adopt this raiding method that no one has ever used before?"

Hearing this, the expressions of the others also turned solemn. According to the raiding method Yu Zhun had planned, they were going to do everything in the [Red Moon Tide] Dungeon that other raiding teams considered impossible, facing the most extreme difficulty within the [Red Moon Tide] Dungeon.

Meeting the gazes cast by the five members, Yu Zhun smiled. "I have already written down the reasons for doing so, as well as my deductions.

"I know this will indeed put us in a more dangerous situation, but you didn’t raise any objections before entering. Instead, you followed me in, so you must have already made your decisions, right?"

Salas, Ji Xiaoyu, and the Su Family siblings looked at each other and smiled. They had already followed Yu Zhun to raid quite a few Dungeons. Every time Yu Zhun made a special move, there was always a profound meaning behind it. Believing in him, fully supporting him, and cooperating—that was what they needed to do. Although they were facing a special Dungeon whose difficulty far exceeded that of Permanent Dungeons this time, the trust they had built up through their teamwork would not waver.

"I’ll listen to you," Sheila said, her face calm. When Yu Zhun asked for her thoughts on the Dungeon earlier, this was her answer. Now, having read Yu Zhun’s strategy plan, her answer remained the same.

Yu Zhun took a deep look at his five companions. "I’m actually a person who values life very much. I cherish my own life, and I cherish the lives of my companions.

"Therefore, I will go all out and lead you to a perfect clear."

As his voice fell, the sky abruptly darkened. A crimson halo spilled from the firmament onto every corner of the plain, casting an eerie red glow over the desolate earth.

The Red Moon Soaring! No one could explain exactly how the Red Moon appeared. It seemed to suddenly materialize in the sky without any warning. But the instant it appeared, Yu Zhun and the other five simultaneously felt the earth tremble. It was as if countless creatures buried underground were about to burrow their way out!

"Over there!" Sheila, whose vision was pushed to the absolute limit by her talent, was the first to spot the location of the [Azure Pearl] and pointed it out.

Seeing the location clearly, everyone’s faces simultaneously darkened. It seemed their luck was rather rotten... The spawn direction of the [Azure Pearl] was in the exact opposite direction of the [Moon Inquiry Celestial Tower]. If they got the item first and then went to the second plot node, they would have to turn back.
