I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 102, page 1.7, section 19: Lias's Voyage
"Purpose." The soft, childlike voice spoke softly, the delicate and beautiful face still expressionless, the cold silver eyes lifeless and deep, as calm as an ancient pool.

"Didn't I say I wanted them to owe me a favor?" Fish said slowly with a smile on his lips.

"Human favors..." Mu Yegui drew his short sword, which was inserted three-tenths of the way into the main mast, released the rope and jumped onto the deck. At the same time, he put the short sword back into its sheath. The whole action took only one second.

"As a reward for Xiao Ye Gui injuring me, I'll give you a hint here." Fei Xiu reached out and touched the bloodstain on the side of his face, which disappeared the next second, as if he had never been injured.

“My September instance is a mandatory gathering instance, meaning you will be forced to participate whether you like it or not. The instance barrier is the entire world of King's Game. If you don't want to die, you'd better keep an eye out for the invitation to the Amazing Circus performance. There will be a grand performance in March, and there should be flyers being distributed around that time.” Fish suddenly winked at Mu Yegui, who remained expressionless as if he hadn't received the signal.

Fish was referring to an advertising flyer, not an invitation. In other words, the March performance was actually a small copy of an invitation, but the promotion was handled by other members of the Amazing Circus, not Fish himself.

Based on the details in Fish's words above, it can be inferred that if one did not receive an invitation when the September instance started, they would likely be eliminated because they could not enter the instance.

In other words, if you don't want to die, you must get an invitation before September.

Mu Yin and Jin Yin don't have invitations yet. It seems we need to have Mu Yin attend a performance in March. Invitations are personal and can't be used to substitute for her.

"You mentioned the word 'favor' before. Does that mean I owe you a favor and have to promise you something?" Mu Yegui looked up at Fei Xiu and asked seriously.

Dao Lin had been listening intently to the conversation between the two, and after hearing Mu Yegui say those words, a terrible guess instantly popped into his mind.

Could it be that Fisch is also preparing for the September raid...?

In that case, it makes perfect sense that Fish has been wandering around various dungeons. He didn't go into other dungeons on a whim or for fun, but rather he entered them with premeditation.

He wanted to...

Mu Yegui stared intently into Fish's blue eyes, which were filled with suppressed madness, and slowly said, "The reason I made him owe you a favor in place of the pirate ship captain is for the September dungeon. You were able to invite them to participate in the September dungeon, which is why it's called 'Night of Madness'."

Calling it "Crazy Night" if it's just one boss is a bit of a stretch, but if it's one main boss plus many sub-bosses, the meaning is completely different; that's the true meaning of "crazy".

A single boss in the September raid doesn't qualify as a large raid; only raids with multiple bosses are truly large raids.

Everyone fell into a misconception, believing that since Fish was the master of the September dungeon, he must be the only dungeon boss. But in reality, the number of bosses in this dungeon should be far more than a single digit.

"Xiao Ye Gui's guess is completely correct, that's right~ I only toured the various dungeons so that they could be special guests in my September dungeon, because they owe me a favor and can't refuse my invitation." Fish didn't think there was anything wrong with revealing this in advance, anyway, even if they knew, it wouldn't change the outcome.

Everyone present except Mu Yegui turned pale. They had never imagined that they would hear news from another instance while in a high-level instance, especially information that almost made them despair.

As we all know, the dungeon master has unique abilities. If you can't even defeat one of them, then there's no hope at all if there are so many.

"Don't think of my September instance as too scary. Apart from a few irritable and bloodthirsty individuals, the instance owners are all quite friendly, like me." Fish chuckled softly, his slightly flippant tone carrying a hint of teasing, the tense atmosphere from before gone.

Everyone: "..." It's like you weren't the one who dug the trap for the players. "I see." Mu Yegui paused for a moment, then said in realization.

Moya frowned deeply and reminded him, "Hey! Don't believe him so easily! He's the one who's been playing us for fools!"

Mu Yegui blinked her clear, silver eyes and turned to look at Moya, slowly saying, "But Fishu wasn't wrong. If he really wanted to kill, he wouldn't have played games with you. From beginning to end, he just wanted to play with you because it entertained him. The clown's existence is ultimately for entertainment. If the dungeon owner and the dungeon are related, then the rules should also conform to the dungeon owner's identity. In other words, the September dungeon is essentially an entertainment dungeon. Because Fishu doesn't kill, he wanted to invite other dungeon owners to assist him." Having said too much in one breath, Mu Yegui shut her mouth after finishing, and no matter how much Moya asked, she refused to speak again.

"Is Xiao Ye Gui speaking up for me? I'm so happy~" Fei Xiu leaned down slightly and whispered in Mu Ye Gui's ear in an ambiguous tone.

"I'm just stating the facts," Mu Yegui said seriously, taking a few steps forward to shake off Fei Xiu.

The raindrops fell with a 'splashing' sound, soaking everyone.

The strong winds and waves nearly capsized the entire ship.

The person vanished into the blur, leaving only faint audible words: "My goal has been achieved. I hope to see you all again in the next instance~"

[Scene 1: Pirate Invasion (Completed)]

Scene Two: The Storm

Players, please try your best to survive the storm.

Lightning struck the mainmast, splitting it in two and causing it to fall to the ground. Standing directly below the mainmast at that moment was Mu Yegui.

"Mu Ye Gui!" Daolin shouted, but the roar of the storm drowned out his voice, and he ended up swallowing a mouthful of rainwater and seawater.

Lias clenched his fists and slowly turned his back.

Shui Qi's expression flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything. For him, this kind of development was probably the most welcome one.

Moya frowned and tried to run forward, but Fernana grabbed her wrist. She looked at her in confusion, and the latter just shook her head at her bitterly.

All of this happened in just a moment.

This reveals a small portion of the September dungeon content, as well as your misconception that Fish likes to wander around dungeons.

The September event also marks the end of the first playthrough: Part 1. Xin Bai and the Ming family twins, who appeared in the previous game, will only appear in the second playthrough.
