Chapter 324 - 324 A New One

324 A New One-Time Stone Sword Key (II)

“What are the specific requirements?” Lin Ye asked.

“Kill Dark Roar Saldean’s main body that is hiding in the cave?”

“Yes,” Shangguan Yan said, “The fight was simple but it’s very troublesome to find this guy’s original body.”

“If I didn’t ask Stryde to fly at a low altitude, we wouldn’t have been able to see the secret cave hidden under the various vegetation.”

Lin ye furrowed his brows.

“You discovered it by pure luck?”

“Yup,” Shangguan Yan nodded. “I’ve already said that our luck has been ridiculously good recently.”

“Hidden Bosses, hidden areas, one-time stone sword keys, as well as the equipment and skill books that we obtained from dungeons. Our drop rate is much higher than that of other students.”

Lin Ye was speechless.

‘I’m convinced!’

‘Could it be that Bai Zhi’s lady luck’s talent had a hidden effect?’

‘Improving the entire team’s luck?’

He glanced at the single-use stone sword key on the table.

This kind of one-time stone sword key can only be used by one person. You can’t form a team to enter, and once you enter, the stone sword key will be destroyed. And when that happens you can’t enter again. It’s equivalent to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it’s very rare.

“Since you discovered it on your own, it’s all yours.”

“If you want to challenge the dungeon, then go ahead.”

“Of course, if you want to give it to me, that’s fine too.”

“I can reluctantly go inside and get you a Mythical or Godkiller-level reward.”

“By the way, I’d like to thank you for your contribution to the team.”

“Tsk,” Shangguan Yan said, “You’re really shameless.”

After a pause, he continued, “actually, I thought that you would open the stone sword key and enter the dungeon. Then, you would use ‘Holy Kara’ to pull us in and see if it would work.”

“If it works, let’s go to the dungeon tonight and get some rewards.”

“If it doesn’t, then you can go and get a mythical Godkiller reward yourself.”

“Don’t you want to keep it for yourself?” Lin Ye asked in a serious tone.

“The disposable stone sword key is something that can only be found by chance. Perhaps it’s the first and last thing you’ll get in your life.”

Shangguan Yan shook his head.

“No.”

“It’s useless for me and Nolan. Neither of us can beat a Diamond Boss. At most, we’ll choose the hard difficulty to fight a Platinum Boss. Even then, we may not pass it.”

“What if the only reward is Diamond-grade equipment?”

“Or maybe even Platinum-grade rewards.”

“It will be a huge loss.”

He looked at Lin Ye with a mischievous grin. “If you want those kinds of equipment, can’t you just give us a few high-difficulty dungeons in the future?”

“Hehe, I can become stronger by lying down. Why should I work hard? This is my new motto, which I copied from rotten literature.”

“Aiya,”

“The more I think about it, the more comfortable I feel.”

“I didn’t expect Mumu’s vision and ideals to be so broad.”

“I was really young and ignorant back then.”

Lin ye was speechless.

“Alright, I don’t mind,” he said.

“The White Clam is at least a Legendary item. It’s quite nice to have.”

“Did you tell the others?”

Shangguan Yan shook his head, “not yet,”

“I’m just here to see if you have any other plans,”

Lin Ye picked up the disposable stone sword key on the table, stood up from the bed, put on his shoes, and walked to the right side of the room.

“Then we’ll wait,” Lin Ye said.

“I’ll open the door and go in first. Then, I’ll contact you through the Holy Kara. If you can’t go in, you’ll have to explain it to them.”

“If we can enter.”

“We’ll just explain it to them in the dungeon,”

Shangguan Yan raised his right hand to make an “OK” sign.

Then, Lin Ye stuck the disposable stone sword key into the metal wall of the private room and waited for the system notification to appear.

[Prompt: Use the stone sword key and insert it into the wall. You will be summoning the one-time secret dungeon “Gravel Tribe”. Opening the portal!]

BOOM!

With a muffled sound, the stone sword key was inserted into the wall with slight resistance, as if he was sticking a stick into a thick slab of beef.

Then, it rolled up black ripples that were visible to the naked eye and finally expanded into an oval-shaped black portal. It kept spinning clockwise on the wall, giving off a mysterious and profound feeling.

[Prompt: You are about to enter the one-time secret dungeon “Gravel Tribe”!]

[Prompt: You have chosen the highest difficulty, Hell-level!]

…

[Dungeon Secret Land: Gravel Tribe]

[Level: LV 15 – 20]

[Difficulty: Hell (extreme danger)]

[Description: This is a Gravel Tribe formed by a group of black-skinned orcs. They worship hell by nature, like to summon and tame demons, and also like to use the power from hell, but they have a different value of honor from the secular world.]

…

After entering the dungeon, Lin Ye looked around and realized that the layout here was similar to Blackedge City. There were a few bare mountains connected together, and the beastmen of the gravel tribe had built a city on top of the mountains.

Vegetation?

Sorry, they were all killed by the black-skinned orcs of the gravel tribe. They didn’t have a sustainable view of the overall situation and only knew how to kill now and enjoy now.

In addition to the black-skinned orc army that was similar to Blackedge City, there were also many demonic creatures from hell. For example, the gargoyle creature that Cain had extracted its soul from in Ogre City, as well as many standard demons with red flames on their legs and wings on their backs.

There were also hellfire creatures burning with green flames. They looked like rocks, had huge bodies, and gave off an oppressive aura. One look and one could tell that they were bosses and elites.

Then there was the Hellhound, the Hell Bird, the Hell Pig…

After getting a general idea of the secret dungeon, Lin Ye started to use the equipment effect of “Holy Kara” to connect with the others and pull them into a small group chat in QQ using their minds.

‘Hey, hey, hey?’

‘Can you guys hear me?’

‘What’s wrong?’ Nolan asked in confusion. ‘Is something the matter, Lin Ye?’

‘Four kings! Ah, I’m sorry. I got the wrong reply. So embarrassing…’ Su Mumu was playing cards.

￣□￣||

Even communicating with their minds, Lin Ye could still imagine her emoji face.

Bai Zhi remained silent.

Little Mumu wanted to say something, but she could not.

Shangguan Yan asked, ‘how is it?’

‘Lin Ye, have you started the Summoning Ritual yet?’

‘I haven’t,’ Lin ye replied.

‘I’ll try opening the portal right now,’

‘Now, it’s time to test if the Holy Kara can allow us to contact the outside world in the one-time secret plane.’

‘Will this work?’ Shangguan Yan wondered.

Lin Ye was speechless, ‘If it doesn’t, who do you think you’re talking to?’

Shangguan Yan chuckled, ‘Hehe. I was just joking.’

‘Quickly open the portal.’

‘What? A one-time secret dungeon? Where did you get a one-time use secret dungeon?’ Nolan asked in confusion.

‘Baby, I’ll explain it to you later,’ Shangguan Yan said.

‘Get ready. Lin ye is about to start the Summoning Ritual. If the system sends you a teleport notification, quickly accept and enter the one-time secret dungeon.’

‘Mumu, stop playing cards. Find a reason to leave and get ready to teleport.’ Lin Ye also added, ‘don’t let the others, especially Topaz, and the other contestants, see you teleport. The Holy Kara is a mythical item and we need to keep it a secret.’

‘Oh, I know,’ Su Mumu very obediently said.

‘I told them that I suddenly remembered that I needed to talk to you about something.’

‘Chu Meng will take over my place in the game.’

‘Is that okay?’

*..(๑･∀･๑)*..

‘That’s fine,’ Lin Ye nodded. ‘But… I thought you didn’t like to play cards?’

‘I have nothing to do,’ Su Mumu explained.

‘They invited me, so I came here to have some fun. Nolan and Bai Zhi are here too, but they’re playing mahjong.’

Lin Ye didn’t know what to say to that…

‘Forget it. It doesn’t matter,’ he said. ‘I’m going to start the Summoning Ritual.’

‘You guys go back to your rooms and lock the door. Don’t let anyone see this.’

After he finished speaking, Lin Ye began to use Holy Kara’s Summoning Ritual ability. He targeted everyone except little Mumu and the army of souls.

The system notification also appeared in front of him.

[Prompt: You have used the Summoning Ritual and are about to summon “Su Mumu”, “Nolan”, “Bai Zhi”, and “Shangguan Yan” to enter the one-time secret dungeon “Gravel Tribe”.]

[Prompt: They have chosen to respond to your summoning and are about to be teleported here by the ‘Holy Kara’!]

Whoosh…

The summoning ritual at Hive also happened normally up to this point.

‘But can we enter the dungeon this time?’

‘I still have to look at the new system notifications that appear next.’

‘I think…’

‘I don’t think this one-time secret dungeon that forces a single person to enter will work, right?’
