Wu Yong said helplessly, "Of course, those with the potential to become legendary professionals are also among their assassination targets."

"You mean Sun Jitian."

"It's not just him. This year, the entire Jiangdong School Alliance has produced a wealth of talent, but the Heavenly God Alliance has come up with a ruthless plan to wipe them all out."

Wu Yong looked at Shen Yi, who had a somewhat privileged background, and asked, "Boss, what are you thinking about?"

"I'm wondering, why would the Celestial Alliance do something like this?"

"They're all a bunch of lunatics and perverts, always stirring up trouble!" Wu Yong said, somewhat annoyed. "Who can understand what those lunatics are thinking?"

After saying that, Wu Yong looked worried and asked, "The most important question now is, what should we do?"

Black mud is spreading everywhere in the dungeon, and you can get infected if you're not careful. So far, we only know one negative effect, and we don't know what will happen if you get infected with this black mud, so professionals are avoiding it like the plague.

The professionals, constrained and restricted, were no match for those monsters.

Shen Yi thought for a moment, "Let's go to the Misty Swamp."

"Go to the Misty Swamp?"

Wu Yong said with a wry smile, "How are we going to get there? There must be a beast tide in the Giant Tree Forest too. Judging from the way we've come, we'll never reach the Misty Swamp."

"Unless we fight our way through."

But in doing so, their physical strength and magical power would be completely depleted.

If they can't even protect themselves, how can they hunt down the Fog-Smoke Corpse Demons?

Silent and composed.

"Boss, you have to think of something! We can't just be trapped here and die!"

The beast tide just now caused Shen Yi and Wu Yong to be contaminated by the black mud, and their bodies were covered with [mist miasma].

Now, they are truly trapped and dying inside the dungeon.

Shen Yi glanced at Wu Yong, "Weren't you supposed to be full of clever ideas? Why are you so spineless now?"

Wu Yong smiled wryly, "Brother Yi, please don't tease me in this kind of emergency."

"At most, I just think that you have a bright future, Brother Yi, and I'm hoping to get a job under your wing."

"Besides, even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. If you want me to come up with a solution, you have to give me something that can help me."

Shen Yi said calmly, "The simplest way is to wait."

"wait?"

Shen Yi nodded, "Once my mana recovers, I can handle another beast tide of that size."

Wu Yong thought for a moment and said helplessly, "I understand... corpse manipulation? But if we can really wait that long, it'll be too late."

After thinking it over, Wu Yong simply sat down on the ground.

"Forget it, forget it. The Heavenly God Alliance was prepared but caught off guard. It looks like we're doomed sooner or later."

He spread his arms out and simply lay down on the ground in a starfish shape.

"I, the dignified young master of the Wu family, even have a beautiful wife I'm not yet betrothed to, have been wiped out in this dungeon, all gone!"

"Goodness."

Shen Yi glanced at Wu Yong with some surprise, "You have a fiancée?"

"I'm from the Wu family of Jiangdong!" Wu Yong sat up abruptly and chuckled. "Boss, you're from Jiangnan, you don't know, but in the past, our Wu family was the undisputed ruler of Jiangdong. We were incredibly powerful!"

Shen Yi raised an eyebrow. "Isn't the Ye family the most powerful family in Jiangdong?"

“That’s certainly true now.” Wu Yong scratched his head. “Ever since the head of my Wu family disappeared, the Wu family has lacked a top-tier professional to support it. People have left and things have cooled down. Meanwhile, the Ye family has produced Ye Dingtian, who has risen to prominence. With the balance of power shifting, our family has naturally declined…”

"The head of the Wu family has disappeared? Why?"

“If I had known, I would have gone to find him.” Wu Yong licked his lips, his mouth dry. “But even if I knew, what good would it do? The head of the Wu family is a legendary professional at level 83, while I’m still struggling at level 10.”

"There's a rumor that before the Wu family patriarch disappeared, he entered a mythical-level instance... and then, his fate is unknown."

"A mythical-level dungeon?" Shen Yi was somewhat surprised. "I remember the highest level of dungeons is only Glory-level."

"That's what I learned from books. Books don't teach everything!"

With no better options, Wu Yong and Shen Yi simply started chatting in the dungeon.

"The highest level of the dungeon is indeed Glory level."

The Black Iron level dungeon is comparable in difficulty to the beginner dungeon, and is a level 10 class that can attempt.

Silver, gold, platinum, and diamond are each a grade.

Diamond level is the difficulty level that can be tackled by level 50 professionals.

Above diamonds lies glory.

At first glance, the difficulty of the Glory-level dungeon should be manageable by level 60 professionals, but that is not actually the case.

Dungeons with a difficulty level of 50 or higher are collectively referred to as Glory-level.

The Glory-level dungeons can be further divided into Epic, Legendary, Mythical, and Legendary levels.

"After a professional reaches level 50, they will undergo a complete transformation. At that time, the strength of a professional will no longer be simply determined by their level."

"The Wu family sent out several high-level professionals to search for it, and even offered a reward throughout the entire Great Xia Dynasty, but in the end they couldn't find a single hair of it."

"The so-called big family is nothing more than a family bond established by legendary professionals. If the most important link in the bond is gone, then they can only pack up and break up."

Shen Yi looked at Wu Yong and realized something.

"You were investigating the disappearance of the Wu family patriarch, and then you traced it back to the Heavenly God Alliance?"

"I don't have that ability." Wu Yong lowered his head, making it impossible for Shen Yi to see his expression. "All I can do right now is try my best to increase my level and survive in the dungeon."

Shen Yi looked at Wu Yong without saying anything, knowing that Wu Yong had hidden something from him this time, and did not press him for details.

Wu Yong didn't say anything, so Shen Yi didn't ask.

"In that case, you can become a legendary professional yourself."

“I’m a gunner…” Wu Yong’s voice was a little down. “Gunners, you know! Everyone says gunners are in high demand, but that only applies to ordinary professionals.”

"Which profession that can become a legend isn't a rare one?"

Wu Yong smiled helplessly, "But those weak professions! They're inferior from the start, and even reaching level 50 won't help them."

It's cruel, and it's also very realistic!

As the level increases, the gap between ordinary professionals and rare professionals will widen until they can no longer even catch up.

It's as if my entire life was defined the moment I changed jobs.

Wu Yong suddenly remembered something and quickly looked at Shen Yi, "Boss, I wasn't talking about you!"

Even a gunner is far superior to a necromancer.

The necromancer's weakness is etched in the annals of shame.

Shen Yi didn't take it to heart.

No one knew the necromancer's weakness better than him.
