This assassin is upright

Chapter 114 The Second One-Hit Kill
Discovering new restrictions on the [Open and Honest] talent was bad news for Yu Zhun.

But Yu Zhun thought again and felt that fortune and misfortune are interdependent.

If you don't find out now, and your talent fails in a real emergency later, the consequences could be even more fatal.

The earlier you discover a problem, the earlier you can think of a solution.

Isn’t it just answering the questions truthfully?

Just kill quickly enough and don't let the other party ask questions.

Moreover, no one knows the triggering conditions of one's own talents. Players like Nivea who ask inexplicable questions in battle are a minority after all, and similar situations will not be encountered in most of the time.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhun's mood suddenly became relaxed again. Looking at the main hall on the 25th floor right in front of him, he strode forward, put his hands on the heavy hall door, and pushed it open violently.

At the same time, on the 26th floor of the Netherworld.

A young man in armor, holding a sword in his hand, walked through the dark wilderness, step by step towards the nearest teleportation array in front.

Unlike ordinary players, his eyes were always closed.

In such a crisis-ridden environment, doing so was obviously extremely dangerous. Any carelessness could put the young man in deep crisis, but he had no intention of opening his eyes.

Suddenly, the boy's ears moved slightly, as if he had sensed some extremely slight sounds hidden in the darkness.

The next moment, a dark shadow attacked the boy's side.

He was a demon assassin holding a dagger. He had been lurking in the dark for a long time and was ready to kill the young man with one move.

A confident smile flashed across the young man's lips, and he just stood there without dodging, waiting for the opponent's attack.

"Chong-"

There was a sound of metal clashing against each other, and the demon assassin's dagger hit the armor on his side.

Green healing words appeared above the boy's head, and at the same time, the shield outside the health bar suddenly increased.

If Yu Zhun could see this scene, he would immediately recognize the two equipment effects that took effect in this short moment.

Protective gear [Watch over the Netherworld], equipment effect [Pure Land].

Accessory [Deep Embrace of the Netherworld], equipment effect [Deep Embrace].

These two pieces of equipment from the Netherworld Trial can theoretically be obtained by all players who are capable of entering the [Netherworld Abyss].

But not all players will choose them, because other equipment in the self-selected list is equally powerful and can be matched in a variety of ways.

Although the young man in front of him had a different profession from Yu Zhun, his choice of protective gear and accessories was exactly the same as Yu Zhun's.

Looking at the rapidly increasing shield, the Demon Assassin was stunned for a moment in a human way, and the next moment, a flash of sword light flashed across his vision.

【Life-500000】

The Demon Assassin's health bar was emptied in an instant, without any damage overflowing or lacking.

The young man did not stop, killing countless demons along the way, and finally walked into the demon castle where the teleportation array was located.

He will always be ahead, always killing.

Until the end of the abyss.

Blue Star, the Temple of Divine Revelation.

As Zhu Xiuming announced that Yu Zhun had entered the 25th floor, the atmosphere in the main conference hall seemed to be more relaxed than before.

The [Netherworld Abyss] dungeon has only eleven levels in total. Yu Zhun has now entered the third level and has killed other players one after another. It seems that everything is going very smoothly.

"Boss, was this speed considered fast or slow for you at that time?" Ahsoka couldn't help but speak, with unspeakable pride in his blood-red eyes, as if he was the one who entered the copy.

"It's pretty fast." Zhu Xiuming nodded slightly. "According to the situation in our class, the competition was the most intense for the first one to arrive at the 23rd floor, because all the players entered at the same time."

"Only about 40% to 50% of people can survive from the 23rd floor to the 24th floor. The subsequent casualties will be greatly reduced due to the different order of entering the next floor..."

"what?"

Zhu Xiuming showed a surprised look on his face, "Yu Zhun has already killed the Boss on the 25th floor and entered the 26th floor."

"His ranking on the talent list has also changed." Ji Ruoxu said slowly, "At the moment, [Open and Righteous] is ranked 37th on the talent list."

"Boss, what about now? How is his situation compared to your class?" Ahsoka couldn't help but speak again.

"Now..." A trace of reminiscence flashed in Zhu Xiuming's eyes, and one hand gently stroked the hideous scar on his face.

"In our class..."

"This speed is enough to be ahead of everyone."

"Lu Wen has successfully passed the 26th level!"

In another world, in a hall of the most powerful divine player force called "Dengshen Pavilion", the man sitting at the top spoke in a deep voice.

He is the strongest person in this world. He can control the world rewards of this world and can clearly see the source of every world reward.

Just as Zhu Xiuming could clearly know the progress of Yu Zhun's strategy, he could also see the progress of the young man named Lu Wen in their world.

As the man finished speaking, cheers and commotion arose in the Ascension Pavilion.

Lu Wen!

This is the player with the most powerful talent in their world in the more than 100 years since the advent of God's revelation.

Even the strongest man now, the man sitting at the top of the Ascension Pavilion, has to admit that his talent is not as good as Lu Wen's.

No one except the strongest knows the details of Lu Wen's talent. For the vast majority of players present, it is an absolute secret that they cannot know. The only thing they know is the name of the talent.

SSS-level talent [Unknown Invincibility]!
It is this talent whose name makes people feel awe-inspiring that has made Lu Wen undefeated since his debut. Whether it is in copy strategy or other aspects, he has always maintained an extremely amazing record, surpassing all players in history.

"Pavilion Master!"

A strong man at the bottom couldn't help but look at the strongest man sitting at the top, "Is Lu Wen's attack speed fast or slow at the moment?"

Hearing this, others also cast curious glances.

In their world, including Lu Wen's this time, there have been a total of four experiences of entering the [Netherworld Abyss], but the previous two times ended in failure, and the players who entered could not even walk out alive.

It was not until the current leader of Dengshen Pavilion that a new breakthrough was finally achieved.

Not only did this Pavilion Master make it out alive, he was also the only one to pass the level at that time!
Therefore, he is the only person in the world who knows about the [Netherworld Abyss]!

"Very fast." The Pavilion Master had a proud smile on his face, "Lu Wen's speed is faster than mine back then."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was in an uproar.

Faster than the Pavilion Master, doesn’t that mean Lu Wen is far ahead of other players?
Will there be another person who can pass the level in their world this time?
For a moment, the other players present couldn't help but cheer.

The Pavilion Master had a smile on his face, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

He is the only person, besides Lu Wen himself, who knows the details of Lu Wen's talent.

Lu Wen's talent has an almost unstoppable strength.

That is not percentage damage, nor is it true damage that ignores shields, but it is 100% one-hit kill that can force the health value to zero.

However, such a miraculous effect naturally has more complex and demanding triggering conditions than ordinary talents.

SSS-level talent [Unknown Invincibility]: Attacking a target of unknown identity will cause a 100% one-hit kill effect on the target (the health value is forced to 0), only limited to targets in a hostile state.

His unknown identity meant that Lu Wen could only kill targets whose names and identities he did not know with one strike. To do this, he had to close his eyes during the battle.

In order to avoid the impact of closing his eyes on the battle, Lu Wen has upgraded two general skills to the max.

The first is to improve his melee ability, ensuring that he can more easily perform the one-hit-kill [Sword Dance].

The other is to greatly enhance perception, allowing Lu Wen to perceive the opponent's [mind's eye] with his eyes closed.

In addition, Lu Wen, whose damage has nothing to do with physical attack, upgraded all his equipment towards tankiness and became a pure tanky player.

It can be said that Lu Wen, armed to the teeth, is almost invincible.

In this case, there is only one way to crack his talent.

That is to tell Lu Wen your name before the fight.

Since the target is no longer unknown, Lu Wen can no longer kill with one strike.

The Lord of the Ascension Pavilion rubbed his brows, and the hidden worry slowly dissipated.

He was overthinking it.

Lu Wen performed so strongly that other players must have felt extremely pressured when facing him. They wanted to concentrate all their energy on Lu Wen's attack. How could they possibly do something unnecessary like reporting their names?
Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, Lu Wen is already in an absolute lead at this moment, and it is still unknown whether the people behind can catch up with him.

"Master, this time Lu Wen will surely be able to easily win the final victory just like you did back then!"

A strong man at the bottom spoke with a laugh and some flattery.

Easy?

The Pavilion Master was a little dazed when he heard this.

Lu Wen's battle must have been easy, but he was...

The Pavilion Master subconsciously touched his left hand, which had lost its little finger and was hidden in his sleeve, with his right hand, and smiled with a slightly complicated expression.

"Yes, victory belongs to Lu Wen."
-
The 30th level of the Netherworld.

Here, there are only three pillars of light left reaching the sky, and at this moment one of the three pillars of light has turned white.

At one of the remaining two golden beams of light, Yu Zhun extended his dagger, with the blade pointing directly at the giant Boss of this floor in front of him.

【Life-14000000】

Fourteen million lives were wiped out in an instant, and the Boss fell to the ground with a bang while wailing. Yu Zhun looked at the last golden beam of light.

After the 25th floor, Yu Zhun continued to go down and never met any other players.

But, not encountering it does not mean it does not exist.

Through the exploration of the [Compass of Gods and Demons], he was able to perceive that there were three parties, including himself, competing in the [Netherworld Abyss].

One of them is the mysterious player who always stays in the lead.

Following closely behind is myself.

Yu Zhun was also unclear about the identity of the last party. Their speed was slower than his, but not much slower. Almost every time, the other party would kill the Boss not long after he killed it.

In addition to Yu Zhun, the other two parties seemed to have the means to detect each other. In each of the past levels, they chose different teleportation arrays and had no plans to fight with others in advance.

However, this balance will be broken on the next 31st level.

Because there are only two teleportation arrays on the 31st floor.

There must be two parties among them that share a teleportation array.

The ideal situation is that one of the parties chooses to give up the Boss, so that it is still possible for all to enter the 32nd floor without bloodshed.

However, this possibility is very low.

Because at this level, the rewards from each dungeon boss are extremely generous!

[Netherworld Abyss] is somewhat similar to the previous [Netherworld Trial], both have a difficulty gradient of "5+5+1", but there is no increase in difficulty and rewards on the fifth and tenth levels like in the Netherworld Trial.

幽冥之地第二十三层到第二十七层，每通过一层获得50w经验、1件自选Lv25史诗级装备、5枚个人神魔勋章和5枚世界神魔勋章，还有一个能够提升某一属性20%的随机特殊buff。

但在幽冥之地第二十八层到第三十二层，每通过一层获得100w经验、1件自选Lv30史诗级装备、10枚个人神魔勋章和10枚世界神魔勋章，还有一个能够提升某一属性80%的随机特殊buff。

At this point, the lack of an 80% improvement in one attribute will have a huge impact on the subsequent fight for the final Boss!

Neither Yu Zhun nor the other two parties would give in.

Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhun entered the 31st floor.

Looking at the two golden beams of light reaching into the sky in the dark world, Yu Zhun took out the [God and Demon Compass] and locked the position of the leading player.

Without any hesitation, Yu Zhun turned and walked towards the light column on the other side.

If he had to choose an opponent from the other two parties, he would rather choose the one that was at the back, because intuitively, the one that was at the back should be slightly weaker.

Moreover, if he took the initiative to choose the leading party, the two would inevitably fight at this moment, but if he gave the choice to the lagging party...

The opponent may choose the leading party, allowing him to avoid this battle!

Looking at the countless elite demons rushing over, Yu Jun clenched [Sigh of the Underworld].

A new killing begins from now on! ——
"Pfft-"

With one strike, Yu Zhun pierced through the body of the last demon in front of the main hall, and walked towards the closed Boss main hall.

As the number of levels increases, the number of elite monsters increases.

The fact that elite monsters have much more life than ordinary monsters also makes it easier for Yu Zhun to refresh his shield. The killing along the way has already built up his shield capacity to a terrifying number like 5000w.

Just as he was about to kick open the door to the main hall, a voice came from behind Yu Zhun.

"stop!"

The moment the words fell, an ice cone broke through the air and blasted towards Yu Zhun.

The third party is a mage?
Yu Zhun dodged the ice cone nimbly, turned his head to look at the figure striding towards him, and his pupils shrank slightly.

Not a mage, but a fighter and a mage!
The first to rush forward was a young man in silver-white armor, holding a long sword in his hand, with murderous aura surging and exciting.

【Server No. 42373】

[Perena, Lv30]

Behind him, a young wizard followed slowly, staring at Yu Zhun closely, the staff in his hand flashing with azure energy flames, as if he was gathering strength for the next attack.

【Server No. 38425】

[Zerothir, Lv30]

As his eyes swept across the two of them, Yu Zhun's heart suddenly shook and his expression became solemn.

Unlike Rooney and Liu Paris who were forced to join forces before, although these two players come from different worlds, they took the initiative to form a team!
Yu Zhun clenched [Sigh of the Underworld].

In the next battle, he will have to fight one against two.
