He switched careers to become a loan shark, handed over his assets to the state, and then profited g

War Dragon Court, Dragon Tooth Court.

As the main combat force responsible for raiding dungeons within the Twelve Dragon Courts.

Because the Neon Assault Team cleared the Fallen Kingdoms dungeon too quickly.

This caused the entire department to mobilize.

Inside the Dragon Fang strategic instance assault room, hundreds of soldiers skilled in information warfare were anxiously working.

The large screen, which was at least five meters high, continuously flashed the progress of the Neon Assault Team's raid on the dungeon.

This is a competitive mechanism implemented by the game's official team.

A special spectator mode was introduced to create a sense of crisis among the various factions.

However, to ensure no leaks, only the percentage progress of the dungeon walkthrough is shown above.

The specific internal details can only be viewed by personnel within their own faction.

In front of the screen, Yan Xu, the master of the Dragon Fang Court, frowned as he watched the progress percentage constantly refresh.

Unlike Zhao Jianjun.

Although Yan Xu is over a hundred years old.

But because of his profession, the years haven't left any marks on him.

Not only that, his posture became more upright and his muscles more muscular.

With his two-meter height and silver hair, he looks just like a white-haired lion!

"8%! In just half an hour, the Neon Assault Team has cleared 8% of the dungeon! They're almost at the first boss."

"Are these bastards on steroids or something?!"

"How did you conquer it so quickly!"

Looking at the progress of the Neon Assault Team's attack, Yan Xu let out a low growl of resentment.

At that moment, the door to the strategic instance attack room was suddenly opened.

Five well-armed soldiers strode in.

"Reporting, sir! The seventh squad is fully assembled! Requesting instructions!"

Captain Wang Qiao shouted loudly, preparing to receive Yan Xu's inspection.

Seeing this, Yan Xu nodded with satisfaction.

"Young men, you probably already know why I called you here."

"Those bastards from Japan somehow got hold of some crooked tricks that greatly increased the speed of clearing dungeons."

"I know you don't have a comprehensive understanding of this hellish nightmare-level dungeon."

"But we have no other choice!"

"It's been three years, a full three years. We've lost too many first-clear rewards. The output of dungeon resources has been greatly reduced."

"If this continues..."

"The next time the system launches a national war, what we'll likely lose won't be resources, but territory!"

"As soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty, we absolutely will not allow the cession of territory to occur!"

"So this time we absolutely must put on a spectacular performance!"

"Are you confident about this dungeon run?"

"have!"

Yan Xu's voice was powerful and resonant, which filled Wang Qiao and the others with fervor.

"Sir, please rest assured! Even if it costs us our lives, we will definitely get the reward for Shou Tong!"

Wang Qiao replied loudly, but as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Yan Xu curse angrily.

"Bullshit!! What do you mean by risking your life?!"

"You are all soldiers of my Great Xia! Why shouldn't you give up your lives!"

"Do you want your parents to end up like the parents of the Sixth Squad, who all perished, asking their sons if they were brave or not?!"

"I'm telling you! I want the first-clear reward! And I want your lives even more!"

"You all have to come back alive! Do you hear me?!"

Looking at the soldiers in front of him, all of whom were in their thirties or forties.

Yan Xu, who is over 100 years old, had red eyes.

These are all his soldiers!

There was a time when he, too, watched his son and grandson go to the battlefield, just like today.

The father and son made the same vow.

They also did not return.

All that was left for him was a box of ashes, light yet heavy, which merged with the mountains and rivers of his motherland.

He absolutely would not allow these soldiers to have the same mentality!

He wants the first-clear reward!

But he wants people too!

The five members of the seventh squad also turned red-eyed after hearing Yan Xu's words.

"Rest assured, sir! We guarantee we will complete the mission!"

"Good! These are the warriors of my Dragon Fang Court! These are the soldiers of my Yan Xu!"

"Seventh Squad! Move out! Bring that damn first telescope back to me!"

"yes!"

Yan Xu roared loudly, and Wang Qiao also straightened his chest and, together with the other four team members, brought up the instance entry request.

But at that moment, the door to the Dragon Tooth strategic instance assault room was suddenly pushed open.

An aged voice echoed in the room.

"Wait! Wait! Don't enter the dungeon yet! Everyone come back here!"

"How dare you! Who dares to trespass on my Dragon Fang Court! Do you have a death wish?!"

He was shocked to hear that someone dared to interrupt him while he was making tactical deployments.

Yan Xu flew into a rage.

When I turned around, it was none other than myself.

It was none other than his old buddy Zhao Jianjun, with whom he had a love-hate relationship for over eighty years!

"Zhao Jianjun! You old codger, why aren't you staying in your own Longxinting, searching for talent for the country? What are you doing here!"

"And they told me to wait!"

"Did you know that in just this short delay, the Japanese task force has improved their progress by another 1%!"

"If my team can't catch those beasts later, can you take responsibility for that?!"

"Sigh, how come you still have such a fiery temper, you old lion?"

"I came here to help you!"

"Help me? With your abilities?"

"I've known you for over 80 years, and I've saved your life three times. Do you think I don't know your capabilities?"

"I can't even help you with the first play of 'Land of Lost Nations,' how can you help me? I just don't believe it!"

Yan Xu scoffed dismissively.

Zhao Jianjun wasn't embarrassed at all; he just chuckled and pointed at Wu Bai.

"Who said I helped you? I was talking about him!"

"Who!? This brat!?"

"Hey! How dare you talk like that! You old codger, watch your manners! His name is Wu Bai!"

"I don't care what color it is!"

"If I'm not mistaken, this kid should have just completed their job change, right?"

"Yes! I finished it this morning!"

Wu Bai smiled and nodded.

This caused Yan Xu's blood pressure to rise even higher.

"My child, I am pleased that you have the ambition to serve your country."

"But your level is too low. What you need to do now is level up! Improve yourself! Understand!?"

"As for you, Zhao Jianjun! I don't have time to fool around with you!"

"The hellish nightmare-level dungeon I'm about to tackle: Fallen Kingdoms, is a super-large dungeon at level 75!"

"Tell me, how can this child help me?"

"Yes, Mr. Zhao, we don't have much time left. If we don't set off soon, we might really fall behind the Japanese task force's progress!"

Wang Qiao also helped to persuade them.

However, Zhao Jianjun ignored them and coughed twice.

"Cao Yu!"

"exist!"

"Open your properties panel and show them!"

"yes!"

Cao Yu excitedly opened the attribute panel.

Yan Xu looked impatient.

"What's so interesting about Cao Yu's attribute panel? It's all just... Holy crap!!"

"This, this number, how is this possible!"

Seeing the 1480 points of Strength displayed on Cao Yu's attribute panel, Yan Xu was struck dumb! He stood there stunned.

Seeing this, Wang Qiao quickly came over as well.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

"Look at you!"

"That's nothing special, it's just 1480 in strength attribute... Wait! 1480!!"

"God, God-King!"
