Chapter 237 The First Battle Begins

March 16, noon, London, England.

[It has been detected that the number of enemies killed by all players meets the requirements. The challenge right to the dungeon Boss has been unlocked. Please gather all players within two days and arrive at the designated Boss battlefield to challenge. ]

"Oh, this is really fast progress."

Kamishiro Ruri stood on the spire of Big Ben, her sad light blue kimono fluttering in the cold wind.

"Yes, in just one day we have already gathered all the conditions for starting the boss battle."

Gu Qiu stood under Big Ben, still wearing the same black sweater.

"It's really strange, but let's just consider it our luck." Kamishiro Ruri smiled.

Gu Qiu closed his phone and pulled up the collar of his sweater. “This cooperative challenge dungeon is a bit strange, and no information about the boss has been released yet.”

"Hmm? I think I remember there was one." Kamishiro Ruri rested her chin on her hand.

"Yes." Gu Qiu had a blank expression, "But it's just one sentence, and it's related to 'myth'."

“Indeed, with just this one sentence, we have no idea where to start…” Kamishiro Ruri sighed, “After all, the scope of mythology is so broad, how can we know the information of the dungeon boss just from these two words?”

"And there's another point. This is the eighth round of the dungeon. The difficulty shouldn't be that low." Gu Qiu said, "And we have easily met the conditions for challenging the Boss."

"Something is really wrong." The sleeves of Kamishiro Ruri's kimono swayed slowly.

"It's absolutely wrong." Gu Qiu emphasized coldly.

At this moment, Kamishiro Ruri suddenly raised her eyebrows, and a mechanical, cold voice rang in the ears of the two people and even the players in the entire copy.

[The location of the dungeon's Boss battle is below the Big Ben in London. ]

[Two players have been detected entering the Boss battlefield. The Boss battle has officially begun. Before one of the Boss and the player is completely destroyed, it is forbidden to leave the Boss battlefield! ]

[Two players have been detected entering the Boss battlefield. The Boss battle has officially begun. Before one of the Boss and the player is completely destroyed, it is forbidden to leave the Boss battlefield! ]

"Wow, it's over." Kamishiro Ruri turned her beautiful eyes and looked in surprise at the huge shadow slowly rising behind Big Ben.

As calm as Gu Qiu was, his pupils shrank to the size of wheat awns at this moment.

He knew very well in his mind: there were only two sequence players in Big Ben, and without the help of ordinary players outside, the probability of them defeating the Boss was almost negligible.

"...How is this possible?" he murmured hoarsely.

Even when he faced the brutal Anselor that day, he had never felt such fear. This was the closest he had ever been to death. The giant before him, blocking out the sky and the sun, was about to become the executioner who dragged him into hell.

Not only that, the citizens of the entire city of London will also die at the hands of this monster.

No one can escape.

The terrifying alarm exploded in my ears, hitting my eardrums like thunder, and the high temperature enough to grind my skin came over me.

Every pore of Gu Qiu expanded outwards, and every hair on his body turned white at this moment.

Completely white.

His throat was too dry to speak, but his trembling right hand slowly clenched the phone. The black screen reflected the towering shadow rising from behind Big Ben.

[Name of the final boss of the instance: Myth Carrier - Flame Giant Surtur]

[Last Boss Level: Level 38]

[Difficulty star rating of the final boss of the dungeon: 4.5 stars]

[Rewards for killing the final Boss of the dungeon: huge amount of evolution coins, huge amount of experience points, ???]

Scarlet data jumped out wildly, as if a demon was dancing in front of him.

Gu Qiu can choose to escape, but once he escapes, all the citizens of London will be wiped out in an instant, without even a trace left, and at that time he will become a coward and sinner despised by the whole world!

"It seems that we have no choice but to leave it to fate."

Kamishiro Ruri's face recovered from her surprise, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her slender right hand slowly took out a katana from the sleeve of her kimono.

She didn't even turn around to look at the fire giant behind her.

There is a sentence in Thoreau's "Walden": Resignation to fate is a kind of confirmed despair.

Kamishiro Ruri looked at Gu Qiu, whose hair turned completely white in an instant. Knowing that she had no way out, she had to spread her arms and embrace despair, jumping down from the Big Ben, with the sleeves of her kimono dancing wildly in the cold air.

This might... be her last dance.

At the same time, Denmark, near a port.

In a classroom in the teaching building, ten players participating in the "World Mythology Chronicle" copy were discussing how to allocate members to the crusade against the two mythological carriers.

The two mythological carriers on the blackboard - Black Wukong and Shulotgelmir, the former will appear in the Beijing area of ​​China, and the latter will appear in Moscow, Russia.

"Lu Jun, the above is my opinion on personnel allocation. What do you think?" Urushihara Ritsu took a sip of coffee.

"That's it. I still trust your advice." Anson Lu shrugged.

"I'll listen to you." Adel said so. He had great faith in the abilities of the weirdos in Hell Lighthouse, especially Urushihara Ritsu. He had seen the gambler's mind in the Hokkaido copy.

It would be better to say that if there was no Urushihara Ritsu, the "Hell Lighthouse" guild might not even exist, and Anson Lu might still be fighting alone.

Urushihara Ritsu smiled slightly: "Well, I'll talk about it slowly. There's no rush anyway."

"Can I make a suggestion?" Maruyama Jun raised his hand.

"Okay, you say."

Although the crow was smiling and speaking in a kind tone, Anson Deer could see a hint of impatience in his deep eyes. This gambler had never been tolerant of those who considered themselves 'Muggles'.

Obviously, there are five people present on the Muggle list in Urushihara Ritsu's mind. These five people are Xiong Haodong, Adel, Maruyama Jun, Iwata Minoru, and Yuliu.

Anson Deer didn't know why the crow had such great malice towards Julius. Perhaps Julius often insulted the crow in front of him, and the crow heard it through some unknown means.

Maruyama Jun coughed twice and spoke with a serious face: "Okay, I just want to say, try not to put me and Xiong Haodong together."

Xiong Haodong couldn't bear to hear this, his face turned dark immediately, but he had just been silenced by Nashu, so he had no chance to refute. He could only lightly pound the table to express his anger.

Anson Lu laughed and thought to himself, Brother Dong, why are you always disliked wherever you go?

This can be considered an ability in a sense, right? You wouldn't have awakened a [Shitty Luck] sequence somewhere, and the price of the passive skill [Shitty Luck] is to be disliked, right?

"Let me think about it." Urushihara Ritsu thought.

"Yeah." Maruyama Jun nodded.

"Forget it, you guys should just go together."

Urushihara Ritsu sighed and decided to reject Maruyama Jun decisively.

There were two times when he didn't want Muggles interfering with his arrangements.

At this moment, what Maruyama Jun was about to say was interrupted by an exclamation.

"Wow, things have changed guys."

Nashu's expression changed. He pretended to be surprised and said, "Students, it seems that you don't have time to leisurely select the students who will participate in the second myth carrier."

"Is this person sick?" Asuka Uesugi frowned.

She was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat. She really couldn't stand this neurotic NPC. If she could rate the NPC after completing the evolution game, she would directly give Nashu a minus 10,000 points.

"So, what happened?"

Anson Lu raised his eyes and looked at Nashu on the podium.

"I don't need to explain what happened." Nashu smiled, "You only need to look at the Myth Fragment Key you just got, and you will know."

As soon as Xiong Haodong was released from the mute mode, he said, "Who are you kidding? My Mythology Remnant Key didn't react at all. I was just mute and was bored, so I just kept watching!"

[The player "Xiong Haodong" has been banned for one hour. ]

[Please speak carefully, otherwise the next ban time will be significantly extended. ]

Xiong Haodong's face was gloomy and he gritted his teeth in anger.

"Xiong Haodong, please don't speak until I ask you to speak. I haven't explained it completely yet." Nashu said slowly: "There should be two kinds of mythical broken keys here, and I'm not necessarily talking about the one in your hand."

Urushihara Ritsu raised an eyebrow and quickly reacted.

Xiong Haodong's mythological remnant key is connected to the mythological carrier of "Dag, the God of Daylight", just like him.

But what Ansonlu, Yuri and Asuka have in their hands are different - their mythological remnants are connected to the mythological carrier of the "Fire Giant Surtur".

Is it the broken key of Lu Jun's myth? That key is connected to the myth carrier that will soon appear in London, England - the fire giant Surtur, but what happened there?

Urushihara Ritsu turned his head and looked at Anson Lu in confusion.

Could it be that... Anson Lu was also startled. He quickly opened the luggage panel and locked his sight directly on the mythical key fragment at the end. He clicked it with his finger and a panel popped up.

[It has been detected that students in London, England have come into contact with the myth carrier - "Fire Giant Surtur". Can we use the mist power of the myth remnant key to go to London, England for support? ]

Wait, it's starting?

This is the beginning? The boss battle in London?

Anson Lu couldn't believe it and had a lot of questions in his mind.

You know, Shendai Liuli and Gu Qiu participated in a cooperative challenge dungeon! He never thought that in less than two days, they and the players in the dungeon had reached the standard of challenging the Boss.

Normally, it would take at least three or four days, and it’s only noon on the second day!

Moreover, Kamishiro Ruri and Gu Qiu don’t seem like reckless people… With their cautious personalities, how could they directly challenge the Boss the next day?

Even if these two have unlocked the qualification for the challenge, they should at least take a day or two to adjust their morale and plan a strategy for the crusade. Otherwise, bringing in a bunch of ordinary players would be a pure death!

No matter what, the current plan cannot keep up with the changes, and Anson Lu doesn't have the time to think about anything else.

"Lujun, what happened?" asked Urushihara Ritsu.

The mythical key he possessed was different from that of Anson Deer, so if he wanted to know what happened, he could only ask Anson Deer.

Although, before asking the question, the crow already had the answer in his mind.

Anson Lu confirmed the information on the panel again and said very quickly: "The dungeon in London has reached the boss battle."

"So fast?" Maruyama Jun was stunned.

"How is it possible? It's only been one day!" Adel also exclaimed.

Iwata Minoru said weakly, "It's really strange. A normal cooperative challenge dungeon can't progress at this speed. The fastest I've seen was the third day after entering the dungeon to unlock the right to challenge the Boss."

Chu Qimo said calmly: "It sounds like the situation is urgent, but fortunately we have obtained the Myth Fragment Key, otherwise we would not know if a fight broke out over there."

There are only three people who possess the corresponding mythical remnant key.

At this time, the other seven people in the classroom focused their attention on these three people.

Anson Lu turned his head and looked at Yuri and Asuka Uesugi. They had obviously also checked the Myth Key Remnant and saw the same information as him, confirming the situation in London.

"Are you going?" Yuri met his gaze.

"Of course." Anson Lu answered decisively, "There is no reason not to go."

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Nashu.

His super intuition made him direct this sudden change to Nashu on the podium.

For some reason, Anson Lu's super intuition always seemed to tell him vaguely that the boy in the tuxedo in front of him was not an NPC, but another existence.

However, ever since entering this copy, his intuition has been suppressed and is not as sharp as before.

At this moment, Naxiu held his chin with both hands, leaned his upper body on the podium, and quietly admired their panicked expressions.

"Why are you looking at me?" He smiled, "My classmate, why don't you leave quickly?"

"Teacher, can I ask you a question when I come back?" Anson Lu asked.

"You can ask now, as long as you don't worry about the lives of the people of London."

"You are not an NPC, what on earth are you?"

"I thought Ansen Lu's IQ would be slightly higher, but I didn't expect you to be as annoying as Xiong Haodong."

At this point, Nashu sighed deeply: "Hey, no matter if I am an NPC or not, since the rules here are made by me, then I am an NPC, do you understand?"

"So, you also admit that you are not an NPC?"

"If you ask me this question again, I'll silence you." Nash sighed, "Ah, the characteristics that old guy brought to you are really troublesome."

Old thing...

headmaster?

He was referring to the super intuition that the principal gave me?

But how could an ordinary NPC know this?

Anson Deer was stunned.

Thoughts are like a ball of wool rolling on the ground, the further they extend, the more tangled they become.

Asuka Uesugi stared at the panel, a trace of panic flashed across her face. She frowned and said, "I have to leave now. Xiao Liuli is in danger. They definitely don't have enough manpower to deal with her!"

She didn't say 'we' but 'I'. After all, she knew that this was a sudden matter, so she didn't want to drag Anson Lu with her. If Anson Lu thought it was not safe to go now, then she would go alone.

"Don't worry, we'll go now." Anson Lu stood up, staring at Nashu with his brown eyes: "And teacher, I have a question I must ask you when I come back."

"Maybe... you won't be able to see me when you come back." Nash said expressionlessly, "Go quickly, or London will really collapse. This is not what you want to see, right, Lu-san?"
