Hidden beneath the magma beneath the volcano lies a colossal monster—the neutral world boss that will appear in the first chapter of the game.
Their strength should not be underestimated.
The world-class boss in the game is open to challenge by players across the entire server. It has an extremely high level and a much higher HP than regular bosses.
After defeating the enemy, a dungeon will be generated there, allowing players to challenge it repeatedly.
If Victor remembers correctly, that boss will awaken in a year and a half.
At that time, the players' levels were generally not high. The game had only been open for half a year, and everyone was only around level 20.
And this boss is an astonishing level 50!
Players have a hard time even breaking through his defenses.
He also remembered that when the boss awoke from the volcano, all the surrounding towns had been burned to the ground.
The empire sent its army and knightly orders to suppress it, but they were all easily crushed.
In times of crisis, the empire can only turn to adventurers like 'players' for help.
This world-class boss was finally whittled down by players over three days, with each death costing them their lives.
Viktor was also fortunate enough to participate in that battle. He remembers that during that time, he stayed up for three nights straight, logging on every day just to be able to whittle down the boss's health with other players.
Every time he thinks about it, he feels a surge of excitement.
Hard work pays off, and generous rewards were given to every player who contributed to this battle.
Even if he re-challenged that instance with various professions in the future, he could never feel the same immersive despair he experienced the first time.
However, Victor wanted to see what it looked like before it woke up.
Forge Beast, that's the name the players gave it.
Just as its name suggests, it is like a giant, scorching furnace, inspiring fear and causing widespread devastation.
Its appearance even turned the earth into charcoal.
Victor decided to visit Gwen tonight to sound her out.
If I could hitch a ride on Gwen's mission, that would be even better.
Seeing that Victor stood there in a daze after listening to her, she had a feeling that he was thinking about something bad.
She waved her hand at him with a hint of disdain.
"Are you bored? As a professor at a magic academy, why are you just loitering around outside?"
"Since you have nothing to do, can you hurry home?"
Victor glanced down at her, nodded without refusing, and a magic circle appeared beneath his feet, disappearing in a flash.
After seeing Victor leave, Lia rubbed her forehead and sighed.
"This guy..."
"They really do leave as soon as they want, without any hesitation."
But let him go. Now that he's gone, I can get on with my business.
She began directing her subordinates to inventory the goods.
The mages, huddled together, were dumbfounded. They watched helplessly as Viktor teleported out and then teleported away.
Is that the legendary head of the Clavner family?
He can use teleportation magic with ease; he's even more powerful than his boss!
Before long, the goods were inventoried and nothing was missing, which relieved Liya.
Lia called over her subordinate and gestured for her to come closer. Then she leaned close to the person's ear and whispered something.
"Go and contact those people down there and investigate the recent movements of the Du Chloe family."
Her eyes instantly turned much colder.
"When have we, the Clavner family's caravans, ever allowed to be robbed?"
She had long harbored suspicions about the Duke.
The only one who has recently become enemies with Viktor is his youngest daughter.
As for Viktor's other enemies? Those who should be buried are buried, and those who should be exiled are exiled.
Those who truly cannot handle the situation will not be so blind as to bother with their caravans.
Aside from the Duke, she didn't believe anyone else was ignorant of the rules.
We've always been the ones collecting protection money from other people. Even now that we're in the capital, we can't let these locals bully us!
......
Victor teleported back home and went straight into his bedroom to prepare another set of clothes.
He ordered his servants to prepare a carriage for his visit to the Delin family mansion.
The servant received his order and quickly went to carry it out.
Meanwhile, Gwen had just finished her day's work.
Once home, she immediately removed her armor and cumbersome clothes.
The maid had prepared hot water for her, and Gwen soaked in the bathtub, comfortably stretching her limbs and enjoying a rare moment of rest.
"Hmm~ Ha!"
A soothing sound escaped her lips as she closed her eyes, letting the gentle flow of water envelop her entire body.
Just then, the maid knocked on the bathroom door.
"Miss, someone has come to visit."
Gwen was enjoying a relaxing soak when she heard the sound. She hummed softly and lazily surfaced.
Her white back pressed against the edge of the bathtub, water droplets rolling down her skin and splashing ripples on the surface.
"Huh...who's here?"
She had just yawned when she heard the maid suddenly say something from outside the door.
"It's Mr. Victor."
'Thump!'
Gwen slipped and fell into the water.
