Gacha pull: I obtained a god-level talent.

Back at the Adventurers' Guild, Zhang Yuan went to the front desk.

A sweet-looking young woman with a professional smile asked in a pleasant voice, "Hello, how can I help you?"

Zhang Yuan got straight to the point: "I discovered a new instance in the wild."

"Ok."

The girl immediately registered her information on the computer. "Please log in here. The Adventurers' Guild will confirm the dungeon information within one business day and issue you the reward."

Zhang Yuan then asked, "By the way, I heard that after the new dungeon is discovered, the first person to clear the Nightmare difficulty and submit a walkthrough will receive an extra reward, right?"

"Yes, sir. Once the Adventurers' Guild assesses the dungeon's level, if your level is suitable, you can try to tackle the dungeon."

"I've already completed the Nightmare difficulty of that dungeon. Can I submit a walkthrough now?"

"Okay... what did you say?"

After answering instinctively, the girl paused for a moment, then looked at Zhang Yuan with disbelief: "You've already cleared the Nightmare difficulty of the new dungeon?"

These days, quite a few people discover new dungeons, but it's truly rare to see someone who, after discovering a new dungeon, rashly challenges its Nightmare difficulty without waiting for the Adventurers' Guild to determine their level, and then comes back alive.

After all, everything in the new dungeon is unknown, and no one wants to die too long.

"Yes."

Upon hearing Zhang Yuan's affirmative answer, the girl was momentarily dazed before quickly regaining her senses and saying, "Please wait a moment while I inform the manager."

This situation is beyond what a receptionist like her can handle.

A short while after the young woman left the reception desk, a middle-aged man wearing a black suit with a white shirt and black vest, slicked-back hair, and stubble came out.

"Hello, my name is Li Anping, and I am the manager of the West Lake branch of the Adventurers' Association."

Li Anping secretly used a detection technique on Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan, Sword Formation Master, Level 16.

A level 16 sword formation master?

Li Anping was taken aback. Although he had never heard of Zhang Yuan's profession, a professional of this level who could clear a nightmare dungeon should be around level 8-12.

This level of dungeon can be used as a beginner dungeon to train students if it is inside the city walls, but it has little value if it is in the wild.

After all, newbies won't go to the wilderness, and even experienced players who can go to the wilderness don't need dungeons below level 12.

However, a dungeon is a dungeon. According to the association's regulations, even a level 1 dungeon must be recorded by the Adventurers' Association, and the dungeon's energy index must be monitored at all times to prevent the dungeon from becoming abyss-like.

A series of thoughts flashed through Li Anping's mind, then he smiled and politely said to Zhang Yuan, "Shall we talk inside?"

“Okay.” Zhang Yuan smiled back and used the Abyss Source on Li Anping as well.

[Li Anping, Fire Mage, Level 40.]

A fire mage who advances to the Archmage is a powerful being.

Zhang Yuan silently confirmed Li Anping's abilities and followed Li Anping to the manager's office.

Li Anping opened the refrigerator. "What would you like to drink?"

"Cola."

"Sorry, I don't have any here. Please get what you want from the fridge."

Li Anping poured himself a glass of brandy, sat down with the glass in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and said leisurely, "Tell me, where is the dungeon you found, and what are the specific details about it?"

Zhang Yuan was only there to collect the reward and didn't care about Li Anping's attitude. He replied, "The new dungeon is located deep in the Goblin Forest, ten kilometers outside the West Gate. It's a level 15 hidden dungeon."

"A level 15 hidden dungeon?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Anping's eyes. "I heard from the receptionist that you had already completed the Nightmare difficulty level of that dungeon, hadn't you?"

Zhang Yuan: "Is there a problem?"

Li Anping glanced at Zhang Yuan's level again and then asked, "Then why are you the only one reporting the dungeon information? Where are your teammates?"

Zhang Yuan: "I did it solo."

"Solo?"

Li Anping sat up slightly, his expression becoming much more serious. "Go on," he said.

Although he had never seen the Sword Array Master class before, if a level 16 professional could solo a level 15 Nightmare dungeon, then the Sword Array Master must be a rare hidden class, or even possibly a legendary one!

It must be taken seriously.

Zhang Yuan: "The dungeon is called the Shadow Forest Dungeon. The ordinary monsters in the dungeon are nothing special, with strength and constitution around 1000, so they are easy to deal with. The key is the dungeon boss, which is a boss with a specialized mental attribute. Its mental attribute is 10,000, and its other attributes are zero..."

Upon hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Li Anping's expression grew increasingly interesting. "You're saying that level 15 normal monsters in the dungeon have a strength and constitution of up to 1000, and the dungeon boss's spirit attribute even reaches 10000?"

Zhang Yuan: "What, is there a problem?"

Li Anping sighed, "Kid, do you know there are penalties for lying about dungeon information? 10000 spirit attribute points, that's comparable to many level 30 or 40 bosses."

"Putting aside whether a boss with these attributes would even appear in a level 15 dungeon, even if it did, how did you manage to solo it?"

Zhang Yuan: "If you don't believe me, you can send a team to check first."

"Also, a reminder: it's best to have a priest or paladin in your team. The boss has a resurrection skill, and you can't kill it using conventional methods. You have to extinguish the four candles around the altar. After the candles are extinguished, the boss will release a death curse. If there are no purification skills in the team, it's extremely easy to lose a member."

Seeing Zhang Yuan's confident demeanor, Li Anping's expression also turned serious. "I will arrange for a team to determine the dungeon level immediately. If you are not lying, this may be a special dungeon opened by abyss monsters. The Adventurers' Guild will give you a generous reward."

"Please do not leave the Adventurers' Guild until the dungeon information is confirmed."

Zhang Yuan: "No problem, I'm going to the exchange anyway."

"Please make yourself at home, I'll take my leave now."

Li Anping nodded slightly to Zhang Yuan and then hurriedly left the office.

If the information about the dungeon that Zhang Yuan brought is true, then the level 70 Abyss boss that escaped recently has most likely fled to West Lake City. The fact that the newbie dungeon was turned into an Abyss dungeon was not a coincidence, and the newly discovered hidden dungeon is also very likely to be turned into an Abyss dungeon!

If we don't learn the Abyss dungeon strategy in time, the consequences will be unimaginable!

This kind of thing must be reported to the association's higher-ups!

Zhang Yuan was unaware that he had dropped an information bomb. While thinking about what rewards he would receive, he headed to the exchange to sell materials and buy more uses of the Destiny Star Array.

Two God Stones were exchanged for the Crimson Sky Refinement Tier 3, which is already comparable to a legendary weapon.

Legendary weapons are said to bring unexpected benefits to their users.

However, legendary equipment is a secret to every professional, and Zhang Yuan didn't know what its benefits were.

Of course, he'll find out soon enough.
