I told you to change your skills, and you changed them into a nuclear explosion immortal?

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

"Beep beep beep beep!!!"

"Beep beep beep beep!!!"

Mingguang City.

City Lord's Mansion.

After a violent shaking.

In the dungeon monitoring room, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded.

In an instant, the entire monitoring room flashed red light.

On the large screen in the center, a big danger warning suddenly flashed, and many machines even emitted black smoke and crackling electromagnetic sounds.

"What's going on? What on earth is happening???"

The director of the monitoring center was leisurely drinking tea in his office when the swaying almost made him fall off his chair.

Ignoring his embarrassment, he stormed out, leaving the staff in the monitoring room in complete chaos.

"Director! Something terrible has happened! One of the city's subordinate units has been attacked by an unknown force. The attack was so powerful that even the monitoring stones cracked!"

"What???"

Upon hearing this, the director was immediately horrified.

"The monitoring stone that could withstand the full-force attack of a fourth-tier gold-level powerhouse? It's cracked???"

This thing has never had a problem since it appeared and was used.

What on earth happened today that could cause this indestructible treasure to crack?

"Master! It's the Barrens! It's the Barrens, the beginner dungeon!!!"

At that moment, another staff member standing in front of the screen shouted in horror.

However, upon seeing the live footage of the outdoor scene, the staff member was initially stunned, then slowly opened her mouth wide, her eyes almost popping out of her head.

Upon hearing this, the director disregarded everything else and rushed over.

The next second, he witnessed a scene he would never forget.

on the screen.

A mushroom cloud quietly rose.

In just one second, the already barren dungeon became even more desolate.

The entire screen is bright red!

The reflection made everyone's faces turn bright red.

Forget about camps and earthen mounds; even the monsters vaporized before they could be touched.

Even more terrifying is...

The mushroom cloud continued its explosive force without diminishing, spreading throughout the entire instance and transforming the white clouds into fiery clouds before gradually disappearing.

silence!

Utter silence!

The huge monitoring room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. If it weren't for the piercing alarm that kept going off, the scene would have been frozen in time.

The staff members, including the director, were all dumbfounded and speechless.

"This, this..."

"Warning! Warning!"

"Warning! Police..."

Hearing the alarm, everyone jumped and instantly came to their senses.

But the director's old face turned deathly pale instantly.

"Holy crap..."

"Which high-level player is smurfing in a level 5 dungeon?!"

"Doesn't he know that you can't go all out in this kind of beginner dungeon???"

"Chief! Chief!!! The city guards are here!"

A staff member near the door shouted, startling everyone back to their senses.

The director turned his head and saw that, sure enough, the deputy general led a group of city guards running in with a panicked expression.

"What's going on, Director Zhang? Why did the alarm suddenly go off?"

The city lord had only been away for a meeting for two days when the problem arose. If anything goes wrong, he will be the first to be held accountable.

Director Zhang was also bewildered. After wiping the sweat from his face, he pointed at the screen in a panic.

"We don't know the specifics, but I suspect that some high-level player, at least a fourth-tier Gold-rank expert, unleashed a legendary fire skill in the Barrens—no, it should be an epic skill!"

"Epic level???"

The lieutenant's pupils contracted sharply, and his fists clenched involuntarily.

Such a powerful figure is definitely not someone a mere deputy general of Mingguang City can contend with.

Fortunately, although the various forces are fiercely competing openly and covertly, no one has yet broken ties with the city defenses.

Furthermore, since the incident only occurred within the instance, the outside world was not affected except for some aftershocks.

Perhaps he just wanted to help the younger generation level up.

Yes, that must be it. He remembered that today was the day of awakening.

While the Barren Lands may have lackluster scenery, they are teeming with monsters, making them ideal for rapid leveling.

The lieutenant quickly tried to convince himself of reality, and then exhaled.

"So what's the situation in the Barren Lands now?"

Director Zhang turned to look at the screen and said.

"Currently, this is a barren land... um..."

Director Zhang was startled, and his pupils contracted sharply.

"This, this..."

The lieutenant's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly stepped forward to check. However, when he saw the aerial view of the barren land, he froze on the spot.

"I can't believe my eyes..."

"This...this is that barren land of the Loess Plain?"

"How did this... become such a big pit?"

The staff were stunned again, their legs trembling.

Although the Barrens is a very small dungeon, it's impossible for ordinary skills to cause such a change in the terrain.

How overpowered must this skill be to instantly wipe out the entire dungeon and destroy it?

"What, what should we do, Director? This, this Barren Land instance is probably..."

Director Zhang swallowed hard and subconsciously wiped his sweat.

"This is no different from a nuclear explosion... but thankfully there was only one, otherwise, if another one came, this small instance would collapse."

"As expected of an epic skill, it's incredibly powerful..."

As long as the instance doesn't crash, it will automatically recover after a period of time.

This can be considered a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

Otherwise, even the city lord would be held accountable for losing a single instance.

However, at this moment, the deputy general suddenly remembered something, and his expression changed drastically.

"Oh no! There are other people leveling up in this dungeon!"

Director Zhang's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly checked the data. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

"No one died. They must have realized something was wrong and rolled it out beforehand."

Upon hearing this, the lieutenant breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that no one was injured..."

Upon seeing this, Director Zhang swallowed hard, his face turning pale.

"So...how do we handle this?"

The lieutenant sighed, his face grim.

"This matter is neither a big deal nor a small one. I'll report it and wait for the city lord to make a decision."

"That's fine. If some big shots are coming to fry fish, it would be bad luck for us to go. We might as well let the higher-ups decide."

These strong people usually have very strange tempers. They don't want to go looking for death. Even if they say they can be resurrected, what will happen if someone is offended?

Everyone felt a wave of fear, hoping that this matter wouldn't implicate them.

……

Within the safe zone of the barren land.

Many people clutched their chests, still shaken, staring at the flickering portal with expressions of terror.

If they hadn't realized something was wrong and run away beforehand, they would all be dead.

Those who were already in the safe zone were also quite frightened.

After all, they had just witnessed the portal shaking violently as if it were about to shatter, accompanied by an earthquake-like tremor.

Even a fool could see that something big had happened in the dungeon.

Didn't you see how the guards were on high alert, their faces pale?

Fortunately, things have stabilized now, and the portal is only flickering slightly. Seeing this, everyone dared to speak.

"Holy crap... thank goodness I ran fast. The sky full of fire and that mushroom cloud were terrifying."

"That's not all! I saw it with my own eyes—that little monster vaporized before it even touched the fire curtain! It's insane!"

"When that mushroom cloud appeared, the air was so hot it felt like I was going to sweat. I thought I was going to die there!"

"Don't even mention you guys, I thought I was going to die out there."

"Yeah, the ground shook so badly that day, I thought an earth dragon had turned over."

"Seriously, what's going on? Why is there a mushroom cloud in the dungeon? Didn't those things stop working after the cataclysmic event on Earth two hundred years ago?"

"I guess it's some kind of powerful skill? After all, that's the only explanation."

"A big shot here to blast fish? And start with a nuclear explosion? Has he gone mad?"

"Holy crap! Stop talking nonsense! The big boss is definitely still inside. If he hears you, you're dead!"

Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, everyone quieted down.

"Holy crap, no, this is terrifying! I need to go home! I need to find my mom!"

"Me too, it's the password. I just want to upgrade, not ascend to heaven!"
