Chapter 11 - Chapter 11: The Dangerous Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon (1/2)

Sitting on the train going home, Zhang Yun supported his chin with his right hand and leaned against the transparent window. He pretended to observe the trees that were moving past him while he quietly opened his panel.

[Description: Unfortunate]

Hmm…

It was really unfortunate.

There probably wasn't another priest in the world who was as weak as Zhang Yun.

But it didn't matter.

Not only did he have an invincible shadow, but Zhang Yun also acquired a young female professional who was a genius. In the future, Zhang Yun would have even more Shadow Heroes! 

Kekeke!

Zhang Yun could earn a lot of money in the future!

He could also become a priest whom everyone loved!

As he thought about it, Zhang Yun felt his eyelids getting heavier by the second. It seemed that he had not slept well because he had been woken up by the system notice in the morning.

But...

Zhang Yun remembered waking up only 10 minutes earlier.

Why was he so sleepy?

The speed of the train was lightning-fast. Zhang Yun only slept on his seat for three hours before he reached his destination, Little Lantern Grass City. It was the city where Zhang Yun's aunt lived. 

Zhang Yun carried the heavy suitcase and followed the passengers on the train. He quickly alighted and left the station.

Zhang Yun didn't want to delay his aunt's work and wanted to give her a surprise, so he didn't inform her in advance. As a result, no one came to the station to pick Zhang Yun up.

Zhang Yun could only walk alone in the noisy square.

However...

Just as Zhang Yun was about to use his phone to call for a taxi…

The crowd screamed in fear out of nowhere. In the next moment, everyone lunged for the train station in a frenzy. Only Zhang Yun was left standing in the same spot. He was going against the flow of people and looking at the red teleportation gate that had suddenly appeared in the center of the square.

The gate resembled a spinning jade in the sky as it emitted a deep red demonic light. The center was deep and bottomless, with a strange countdown of 9 minutes and 43 seconds floating in the air.

"Eh?"

"A Level-3 Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon?"

Were people only given 10 minutes to complete the raid? 

The so-called Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon, also known as the Real World Invasion Dungeon, was similar to the weakened version of the dungeons in games. The overall process of clearing it was very short, and there was only one creature deemed as the 'BOSS'. After the first round was cleared, equipment and item rewards would be dropped.

They would randomly appear anywhere in the human world accompanied by a countdown timer. 

During the countdown, the Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon would not pose any threat. However, if the countdown ended without a professional entering and clearing it, the Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon would turn into a portal where monsters could invade.

By then, the enhanced dungeon monsters inside would reproduce in even more numbers. They could create a small-scale dark wave, invade the real world, and attack every human they met.

So…

Whenever a Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon appeared, professionals didn't need to undergo any registration process.

As long as the professionals met the admission requirements, they could enter the dungeon unconditionally and participate in clearing it. 

The final spoils of war would all belong to the challenger, and the successful contender did not need to hand the rewards over to anyone or any organization.

And this...

It was the main way for ordinary professionals to improve their power.

It was also one of their sources of income.

In Zhang Yun's current situation, the level requirement was ridiculously low. 

There were no suitable professionals nearby to enter it. The Professional Alliance would have to send qualified professionals here as soon as they received the news.

The Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon had to be cleared.

Otherwise, the Professional Alliance needed to seal off the entire area and wait for the monster invasion. In that case, they would deploy high-level professionals to surround and kill the monsters quickly.

Zhang Yun contemplated. 

A huge black shadow suddenly appeared on the fine stone path in front of Zhang Yun.

It was as if a brown bear was standing behind Zhang Yun. 

Zhang Yun quickly turned around and saw an exceptionally strong man who was more than two meters tall. The man possessed a flawless body and seemed to be as strong as an ox.

The strong man patted Zhang Yun's shoulder.

Zhang Yun felt as if he was struck by lightning.

Alright...

So fierce...

"Classmate, please leave this place. That monster dungeon will likely contain a lot of monsters. There might be a tide of them later. It is very dangerous."

As he spoke, the incredibly muscled man summoned a sleek black armor, a black horn helmet that completely veiled his mediocre appearance, and a black massive sword that was taller than him.

The man walked straight into the red portal of the Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon.

He was swallowed by the red light!

It seemed that the strong man wanted to single-handedly clear the dungeon.

"Hmm... A Level 3 Professional, a full set of class-specific equipment, and a massive sword weapon of extraordinary quality. That man is obviously a high-level player with full determination and money. He should be able to easily clear the dungeon and prevent a wave of monsters."

Zhang Yun wondered whether he should still take the risk. 

After contemplating for a moment, Zhang Yun concluded that he was a priest who could heal and recover mana. He also had the protection of the C+ grade Fjolm. There was basically no chance of Zhang Yun failing when dealing with a Level 3 Time-Limited Invasion Dungeon.
