Chapter 202: Robert
Beihai Academy.
Li Feng once again stepped onto the back of the Sky Veil Behemoth. He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but he seemed to sense a hint of restlessness from the giant beast beneath his feet.
“It’s probably just my imagination!”
He wasn’t entirely sure, as his strength was previously too weak.
He couldn’t sense the other’s inner feelings at all.
He shook his head, thinking, “Even if it really is acting up, with my current strength, I probably can’t stop it.”
If the sky falls, there are taller people to hold it up.
There were many in the academy stronger than him, so he didn’t need to worry about these things.
“Li Feng, which dungeon are you planning to enter?” Zhou Hao asked excitedly from beside him.
This was his first time facing a Professional level dungeon boss.
Hearing this question, Li Feng was momentarily stunned. He really hadn’t looked into Professional level dungeons much.
The only one he knew of, the Dragon Ball Dungeon, he had already shattered.
Of course, Headmaster Chu had suppressed the matter.
Everyone thought the Dragon Ball Dungeon’s destruction was an accident. Only a few knew that it was largely related to Li Feng.
“Don’t tell me you don’t know?” Keli’s expression darkened. Was this guy’s heart really that big?
The boss-slaying assessment was imminent, yet Li Feng seemed indifferent.
As his friend, she was more anxious than he was.
“Ahem.” Li Feng coughed awkwardly. He randomly pointed at a dungeon entrance. “This one!”
Zhou Hao glanced at the entrance and sighed, “This is the Ice Palace World, an Awakened level dungeon. Are you sure you want to enter?”
He was completely hopeless now.
Li Feng really knew nothing about Professional level dungeons.
Hearing Zhou Hao’s words.
Li Feng was embarrassed, “I meant the one next to it.”
The entrance to the adjacent dungeon resembled a palace, appearing quite sacred, but the aura it emitted was very weak.
He thought to himself, “This should be right this time, definitely a Professional level dungeon.”
“This is the Second Spine. If I’m not mistaken, the boss inside should have been killed by Huangfu Yun and his team already.”
Zhou Hao shook his head, “Forget it, let us choose!”
Beside them, Keli covered her eyes, unable to bear watching.
Li Feng was speechless. How could he be so unlucky, choosing two wrong dungeons in a row?
“Let’s go with the Minotaur Ruins. It’s the weakest among Professional level dungeons, a good place to start.”
Zhou Hao said cautiously.
In his opinion, with their combined strength, they only had a chance of success by ganging up on the weakest Professional level boss.
“Alright.” Li Feng didn’t have any objections.
For him, it was just a formality. The sooner it was over, the sooner he could go back to leveling up. His game character was already close to level 24.
…
…
Boom!
Just as the three decided on a dungeon, an explosion like thunder erupted.
A tentacle several meters thick, covered in black suckers, emerged from the Second Spine dungeon and swept towards the crowd.
Some students didn’t react in time and were grazed by the tentacle, instantly exploding into a mist of blood.
The scene was horrific.
“Not good, a dimensional creature is attacking the dungeon entrance!” Many students paled at the sight.
Shush
At this moment, the entrance to the Second Spine dungeon fluctuated again. The students’ faces turned white with fear, “A big guy is coming out, quickly notify the academy’s experts!”
A single tentacle had already caused casualties. If a dimensional creature emerged, it would undoubtedly be a boss-level dimensional creature.
Those who came to the Sky Veil Behemoth were generally Professional level students, with no experts stationed there.
If the creature succeeded in breaking through, the damage would be unimaginable.
However, this time, it wasn’t a dimensional creature, but four human figures that were flung out, crashing into a building.
With a boom, the building collapsed, and countless wooden beams fell. Blood could be faintly seen flowing on the ground.
“It’s Huangfu Yun and his team!” Some sharp-eyed individuals recognized them.
“Did they fail to challenge the Second Spine boss?”
Many students were shocked.
Huangfu Yun’s team had been very famous lately. Suppressing the Eternal Day Dungeon and entering the Second Spine was no secret.
But it seemed they had failed.
Many students gloated, “They really overestimated themselves. Did they think they could challenge the Second Spine? Now they’ve suffered a huge loss!”
“Is the Second Spine’s boss-level creature really that terrifying?” Zhou Hao gasped.
Unlike the others who were gloating, he saw deeper.
This was a team that could kill the Eternal Day Tree Demon King, yet they had fallen in the Second Spine.
Keli’s expression was also grave, “It seems the difference between the Second Spine and Eternal Day bosses is not small. We should start with weaker boss-level creatures.”
Among those present, only Li Feng remained relatively calm.
Crack.
Countless wooden beams rolled down, and a figure stood up. It was Huangfu Yun. His face was so dark it seemed like water would drip from it, “D*mn it, I didn’t expect this Robert the Count to be so powerful. His strength is at least double that of the Eternal Day Tree Demon King.”
◈◈◈
This time, their team had paid a heavy price.
The other team members also stood up, their faces pale.
Lu Feng was missing an arm, while Wu Yong was even more miserable, missing both arms, with blood continuously spurting from his wounds.
Only Wang Qing was slightly better. As a Support, she was well-protected, but she still had several holes in her body, with white bone faintly visible.
“We were lucky to escape this time. If he hadn’t broken through the world barrier, we might all have died there.” Wang Qing said with lingering fear.
This battle had almost shattered their spirits.
They were almost wiped out in a single encounter.
“Forget it, let’s leave for now. After training for a few months, we’ll come back for revenge on Robert the Count.” Huangfu Yun said with killing intent.
They had suffered a great loss this time and had to get even.
Just then.
A terrifying aura permeated the air, as if a great horror was about to descend.
“Not good, Robert the Count is coming out!”
Everyone stared in horror at the Second Spine dungeon entrance. Six tentacles emerged, latching onto the ground.
A massive body was gradually appearing. The entire palace entrance was shaking, making cracking sounds as if it couldn’t withstand the creature’s arrival.
“He shouldn’t be able to come out, right?” Zhou Hao’s face was pale.
Keli shook her head, “He shouldn’t. He can revive inside the dungeon, but if he dares to come out and is killed by the academy’s experts, that’s his permanent death.”
Professional level dungeons were different from Awakened level dungeons.
If killed inside the dungeon, they could revive. But once outside, without the protection of the world’s power, death was permanent.
Generally, dimensional creatures from Beginner and Professional level dungeons wouldn’t easily step out.
However, Keli’s guess seemed to be wrong this time.
In just a breath, a giant octopus head squeezed out of the entrance, its eyes coldly staring at everyone like a god.
By now, three-quarters of Robert’s massive body had emerged.
Although he hadn’t attacked yet, the aura he emitted was enough to suffocate most of those present.
Seeing this, Zhou Hao’s voice trembled, “Didn’t you say he wouldn’t come out?”
“I guessed wrong,” Keli said with an ugly expression.
Among those present, except for Li Feng, everyone’s legs were trembling.
“Robert, you dare to come out? Aren’t you afraid of being killed by the academy’s experts?” An original inhabitant of the Sky Veil Behemoth shouted coldly.
Hearing this, many students’ eyes lit up, and they boldly threatened, “That’s right, if you don’t go back, your death awaits when the mentors arrive.”
Hearing this.
Robert sneered, “Dealing with you ants won’t take much time. I can have a good meal before going back.”
As he spoke, his entire body emerged from the dungeon.
Many students were filled with fear. The creature was unexpectedly bold, intending to hunt them.
And importantly.
Robert was right. By the time the academy’s experts arrived, many of them would likely be dead.
“Everyone, attack together. I don’t believe we can’t handle him with so many of us,” a student said, trying to stay calm.
“That’s right, it’s death either way. Besides, he’s just a Professional level boss. Even if he’s strong, there’s a limit,” someone echoed.
Some glared coldly at Huangfu Yun and his team, “You caused this mess, so you must lead the charge.”
Hearing this, Huangfu Yun’s expression darkened, but they had indeed angered the crowd and had no choice but to act.
“A bunch of ants daring to resist, truly ignorant of death, haha.” Robert laughed, his tone full of mockery, “Ants will always be ants, even in a group, they can’t shake an elephant. Die!”
He moved, his more than ten tentacles sweeping towards the crowd.
“Attack!” Huangfu Yun and the others roared.
Weng!
Around them, many people activated their skills. Various energies surged in the air, and space began to shake.
Finally, all the energies converged into a large blade, slashing towards the tentacles.
Boom!
A terrifying explosion resounded in the air. The tentacles glowed, as if they were the hardest divine weapons. The collision shattered the blade.
The tentacles continued their descent towards the crowd.
Bang, bang. Many people were sent flying, coughing up blood, their faces filled with despair, “We can’t stop him, retreat!”
Huangfu Yun and his team were the quickest to flee, as they knew how powerful Robert was.
“Damn, those little bastards are too ungrateful. Let’s run too!” Zhou Hao wiped the blood from his mouth and cursed.
“You want to run? Impossible.” Robert sneered, then swung his tentacles again, forming them into a sharp sword, piercing towards the crowd.
Just then.
A terrifying sword momentum rose, slashing towards the tentacles.
With a chi sound, the ten-plus tentacles vanished, as if devoured by something, disappearing without a trace.
This scene was extremely strange.
At the same time, a faint voice sounded, “Run what? Isn’t the assessment to kill a boss-level creature? Now there’s a ready-made one, saving me the time of entering a dungeon.”
