Kill one monster, stack one poison, and I alone will poison my way across the world!

The moment Su Chen led forty-nine senior "bosses" into the teleportation portal, the internal forum of Sky Dome Academy exploded.

A post titled "Shocking News! Su Chen, who soloed the Calamity dungeon Fallen Capital yesterday, is now leading a senior citizen tour group, carrying 49 others to conquer Fallen Capital!" quickly rose to the top of the forum's trending topics within just ten minutes.

It was followed by a dark red "Explosion" character.

The post included a high-resolution, uncensored photo.

In the photo, Su Chen, wearing a robe with the language of the abyss dragon, walks at the very front.

Following behind him were forty-nine senior students, a neat and orderly line. The scene looked extremely bizarre, like a lead sheep leading a flock of docile sheep into a slaughterhouse.

The comment section refreshes so fast it's dizzying.

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Am I seeing things? Isn't that Chen Shan from the Berserker Academy? Isn't that Li Huo'er from the Elemental Mage Department? Why are these top seniors following Su Chen around like his underlings?"

"Hey upstairs, are you blind?! The original poster already said it was 1 carrying 49! These big shots paid for their seats and were just lying around winning!"

"This is insane! Absolutely insane! Yesterday, soloing the Calamity dungeon was already a historic achievement since the school's founding, and today he's carrying people? And forty-nine of them are just pure support characters who provide absolutely no damage?!"

"This is the Fallen Capital! The Cataclysmic Dungeon that wiped out countless teams and whose mobs at the entrance could one-shot squishy characters! Does Su Chen really think it's his backyard?"

"This isn't just a matter of strength; it's a complete disregard for the fundamental rules of a Cataclysmic dungeon! Isn't he afraid of a wipeout that could kill all forty-nine elite level 4 warriors inside?"

"Breaking news! Rumor has it that each position is worth 100,000 credits! Su Shen has pocketed 4.9 million this time! Even robbery can't make money this fast!"

"One hundred thousand? Holy crap, these seniors are really going all out for their graduation recommendation letters. But if they can actually get through, one hundred thousand is worth it."

"I'm just waiting for things to go wrong! I don't believe a mage like him can protect forty-nine burdens. If they encounter a monster with a full-screen AOE attack, how will he save them?"

"..."

The forum was in an uproar.

Countless students who didn't have morning classes even brought small stools and sat on the square, staring intently at the dark purple teleportation portal.

Let's wait and see if this bizarre team returns victorious or gets wiped out and carried out.

Meanwhile, inside the [Fallen Capital] instance.

The dark purple sky remained oppressive, and the air was filled with a pungent stench of decay and rust.

Fifty people appeared outside the empty city walls.

As soon as they landed, the forty-nine senior elites felt a suffocating sense of oppression.

The powerful monsters lurking in the dungeon made it hard for them to breathe, as if a mountain was pressing down on their chests.

"Cough cough..."

Several mages with lower physical strength couldn't help but cough, their faces turning pale.

Su Chen turned around and looked at the group of "bosses" who were so nervous they were swallowing hard.

He issued the instruction in a calm tone:

"Alright, stop standing there, form a formation."

Su Chen pointed to the dark street ahead: "Although I was paid to help you clear the level, I'm only responsible for killing monsters and clearing the way, not for babysitting."

"Form a defensive formation and follow behind me, keeping your distance."

"If you wander off and get killed by a monster from behind, there will be no refund and I will not be responsible."

"..."

Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Zhang Ming, who had previously organized everyone, immediately stood up straight and loudly replied, "Understood! Don't worry, God Su, we absolutely won't cause you any trouble!"

Zhang Ming turned around to face the other forty-eight people and began to skillfully shout out:

"All tanks, move to the front and flanks!"

"Priests and support classes specializing in amplification should stand in the middle, maintaining continuous group healing and shield auras—don't stop!"

"Mages, archers, assassins, put away your weapons and stand in the inner circle! Don't draw aggro, don't use skills, and whatever you do, don't steal Su Shen's monsters!"

"Hurry up! Get in position within three seconds!"

"..."

Under Zhang Ming's command, this group of senior students displayed an extremely formidable level of tactical skill.

Less than two seconds had passed.

A dozen or so warriors clad in heavy armor had already raised their tower shields in unison, forming an impenetrable ironclad formation on the outermost edge of the formation.

The priests in the middle waved their staffs, and colorful shields and buff auras instantly enveloped everyone.

Those mages and assassins who were usually high and mighty and had explosive damage output were now as obedient as quails, huddled tightly in the very center of the formation, and even the gems on their staffs had deliberately dimmed.

The entire formation was perfectly sealed and impenetrable.

Su Chen stood aside, watching as this group of people transformed into a moving "iron turtle" in a very short time, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

As expected of a top student from Sky Dome Academy, their tactical skills and execution efficiency are impeccable.

"Let's go."

Su Chen nodded in satisfaction and turned to walk deeper into the area.

The "Iron Turtle" formation of forty-nine people resembled a giant snail, cautiously following Su Chen about ten meters behind.

They had only advanced less than two hundred meters.

"roar--"

A low, hoarse roar came from the ruins in front of the street.

The stench in the air instantly intensified.

Countless dark gray shadows rapidly approached from afar.

They resemble some kind of skinned hunting dog, but are as big as an adult buffalo, and their bodies are covered in dark green pus.

The gaping maw of the abyss, covered in barbs, was dripping highly corrosive saliva.

Upon seeing the monster appear, the senior students following behind immediately tensed up.

They instinctively resorted to reconnaissance techniques.

When monster attribute panels are shared on their respective retinas.

"hiss--"

A series of synchronized gasps of cold air emanated from the "Iron Turtle" formation.

"Holy shit..."

Chen Shan, a burly man standing at the very front, was trembling violently as he gripped his shield. "This...this is just some mob from the outer city?"

【Abyssal Corrupted Hound (Elite Monster)】

[Level: 50]

【Strength: 20850】

[Agility: 28100]

[Stamina: 29000]

【Spirit: 5000】

[Skills: Venomous Spray, Frenzied Bite, Death Plague (Passive: Upon death, unleashes a plague cloud with a radius of five meters)]

……

"Twenty thousand strength? Twenty-nine thousand physique?!"

Li Huo'er, sitting in the back row, turned deathly pale.

Her prized fire magic would probably not even deal a single point of damage to this monster.

"These stats are significantly higher than the final boss of that level 45 hard difficulty dungeon we cleared before!"

"How am I supposed to fight this? One bite from this monster and my shield will shatter to pieces!"

The knights looked on in despair.

Fear spread rapidly among the forty-nine people like a plague.

They finally experienced firsthand the terror of the Cataclysmic dungeon.

This is a gap in attributes that cannot be bridged by numbers or tactics alone.

Just when everyone was so frightened by the abnormal attributes of these ten little monsters that their legs went weak.

Su Chen, who was walking at the very front, didn't even pause for a moment.

He simply waved his hand forward casually.

boom--!!!

A massive fireball, over five meters in diameter and radiating blinding white light, slammed into the ten Abyssal Corrupted Hounds.

Those ten level 50 elite monsters, each with 29,000 stamina and thick skin, didn't even have time to let out a scream.

Their twisted flesh melted like butter upon contact with the flames.

In just one second.

The ten Abyss Corruption Hounds were instantly melted by the deadly poison, turning into a pool of green pus on the ground.

All that remained was a charred crater, not even ashes.

Sold out instantly.

Clean and efficient, leaving no trace.

[Successfully killed the level 50 elite monster, Abyssal Corrupted Hound, experience +3000]

Su Chen glanced at the notification that popped up on his retina and shook his head slightly.

Yesterday, I soloed a monster and got 15 experience points. Now, with 50 people splitting the experience, I only get 3000 points.

It seems that I won't gain much experience from this run.

And behind him, ten meters away, was the "Iron Turtle" formation.

Dead silence.

A deathly silence.

Forty-nine people remained frozen in place, holding their shields and staffs, like forty-nine ice sculptures.

Chen Shan's mouth dropped open, his jaw almost falling to his chest.

The staff in Li Huo'er's hand fell to the ground with a "thud".

Zhang Ming rubbed his eyes frantically, thinking he was hallucinating.

"It's...it's over in seconds?"

"One fireball... and it wiped out ten elite monsters with 29,000 HP each...?"

"What the hell is this damage?! Isn't he a poison mage?!"

"..."

The senior students, who were just feeling despair over the monster's abnormal attributes, were now looking at Su Chen's somewhat thin back and were all in a bad mood.

They finally understood that Su Chen's statement yesterday, "It's about the same as a slime, I can kill it instantly," was not some pretentious Versailles-style remark at all.

That's stating the facts.

"Gulp."

Someone swallowed hard, breaking the deathly silence.

"What are you all standing there for? Keep up!"

Zhang Ming was the first to snap out of it. He lowered his voice, his throat cracking with excitement, "Quick, quick, quick! Don't break the formation! Hurry and catch up with Su Shen!"

The "Iron Turtle" formation has been activated again.

This time, everyone's steps became incredibly light.

They knew that spending those four million nine hundred thousand was absolutely worth it!
