Chapter 73 Stop That Lunatic!
After resting for around ten minutes, Cleansed Rue and One-eyed Ghost gathered everyone to enter the Ancient Demon Court. However, before they could enter, they heard the sound of footsteps coming from the cavern entrance.
Immediately, the members of both Guilds turned toward the source of the footsteps and saw a team of nearly 300 players led by a cloaked man entering the cavern. Walking beside the cloaked man was a beautiful woman, and this woman was none other than Su Qianliu.
Why are they here?
Didnt already give up on partnering with our two Guilds?
Did they regret their decision?
The members of Hundred Flower Palace and Nature Hall began a quiet discussion among themselves as they looked at Su Qianlius group.
What is Su Qianliu trying to do, Big Sis Rue? Didnt she already terminate our partnership? Rain Song, the female Knight carrying a round shield and a one-handed axe on her back, asked.
They should be planning on raiding the Ancient Demon Court by themselves by the looks of it, Cleansed Rue said.
They want to raid it themselves? Song Rain couldnt help but blink her eyes in disbelief when she heard Cleansed Rues answer. Are they stupid?
Although the Ancient Demon Court was only a Trial Dungeon, its raid difficulty was more than double that of Hell Mode Team Dungeons of the same level. Moreover, unlike Hell Mode Team Dungeons, the loot players could acquire from an Ancient Demon Court was highly dependent on the evaluation they received, and the loots quality would be reduced significantly if players couldnt achieve a high evaluation.
The Ancient Demon Courts raid evaluation was split into five ranks: D, C, B, A, and S. The difficulty of achieving a higher rank increased exponentially, and players would need to score at least a B-rank evaluation for a high evaluation. This was also why their two Guilds had dispatched their best players to raid the Ancient Demon Court.
Yet, now, Su Qianliu was trying to raid the Ancient Demon Court with her adventurer team that didnt even reach the standard of well-known adventurer teams.
(TL/N: ordinary -> well-known -> top adventurer team)
Maybe they came prepared, Cleansed Rue said as she moved her gaze from Su Qianliu to Shi Feng. Although I dont know who that Swordsman is, the fact that he managed to get Su Qianliu to join him must mean that he is strong.
Hearing this, Song Rain retrieved her axe and shield and asked, Should we get rid of them now?
Now that Su Qianliu had already withdrawn from their partnership, they were no longer in the same boat. Meanwhile, an Ancient Demon Court in the Miniature Ancient World was of extraordinary value. Before the entrance key was found, anyone could freely enter the Ancient Demon Court. It might be fine if Su Qianlius team lacked the strength to raid the Ancient Demon Court, but itd be a problem if her team did have the necessary strength.
However, Cleansed Rue shook her head and said, Let them be.
I concur, One-eyed Ghost said, nodding. Then, he smiled as he continued, They are aware of the Ancient Demon Courts location. While we might be able to kill them here, if they publish the Ancient Demon Courts coordinates to everyone out of spite, well be the ones to suffer.
If the various superpowers learned of this Ancient Demon Court, they definitely wouldnt let it be. Meanwhile, their two Guilds couldnt guarantee that they could acquire the key on their first try. So, the best solution now was for both sides to keep the Ancient Demon Court a secret and rely on their respective abilities to secure the ancient settlement.
At the same time as Cleansed Rue and One-eyed Ghost had come to an agreement, Su Qianliu, Blackie, and the other members of the team couldnt help but feel shocked and anxious.
Crap! Its the Frostflame Goddess and new Sword Meister! Blackie was flabbergasted when he saw Cleansed Rue and One-eyed Ghost in the distance. With those two here, their team is probably on par with the various superpowers main force...
Guild Leader, Im afraid itll be tough for our team to compete with theirs, Su Qianliu said to Shi Feng with a worried look on her face. She didnt think that Hundred Flower Palace and Nature Hall would send two such experts into the Miniature Ancient World.
The strength of two top 100 Gods Domain Experts List experts was no laughing matter. Even if Cleansed Rue and One-eyed Ghost were only at Tier 3 right now, it was still impossible for their team to win against these two experts. After all, each of these people could constitute an entire team by themselves.
Raiding a Dungeon and combat standards are two separate matters, Shi Feng said nonchalantly as he glanced at Cleansed Rue and One-eyed Ghost. They might have a significant advantage over us, we have our own strengths as well.
Strengths? Su Qianliu asked skeptically. No matter how she thought over the situation, she couldnt figure out how their team was superior to the other partys team in any way. Do we have any?
Of course, Shi Feng said. Then, he walked up to the Ancient Demon Courts massive entrance and reached for the magic array engraved on it, saying, For example, the ability to stir up trouble!
As soon as Shi Feng finished speaking, the magic array on the door suddenly glowed with a dazzling light.
Not good! Stop that lunatic! One-eyed Ghost shouted, his expression sinking when he saw the magic array activating.
Although the Ancient Demon Court was an ancient settlement, it had a few similarities with Team Dungeons. One example would be the different difficulty settings. Meanwhile, the Ancient Demon Court had two difficulties: Normal Mode and Hard Mode. However, unlike Team Dungeons, the difference in raid difficulty in the Ancient Demon Courts Normal Mode and Hard Mode was massive. Hard Modes difficulty was at least several times higher than that of Normal Mode. Moreover, once an Ancient Demon Courts difficulty was set, it couldnt be changed again for a month.
This crazy bastard! Cleansed Rues expression also turned ugly when she saw Shi Feng adjusting the Ancient Demon Courts difficulty.
If the difficulty was changed to Hard Mode, itd become much more difficult for them to acquire a high evaluation. Meanwhile, it was almost impossible for them to acquire the Ancient Demon Courts key without a high evaluation.
However, before One-eyed Ghost and Cleansed Rue could say anything else, another change occurred to the doors magic array. Specifically, the magic arrays color had gradually changed from red to black.
Hell...Mode... How is this...possible?! Cleansed Rue was utterly shocked when she saw the familiar skull illusion appearing in front of the door.
At this time, apart from Cleansed Rue and One-eyed Ghost, even Su Qianliu couldnt help but be dumbfounded by this situation.
In Gods Domain, it was common knowledge that the highest difficulty the Ancient Demon Courts had was Hard Mode. Never had a higher difficulty been seen before. Yet, now, the black skull illusion unique to Hell Mode Dungeons had appeared above the teleportation portal in front of the Ancient Demon Courts entrance...
Alright, now it is fair for all of us. Lets go in, then, Shi Feng said before walking into the portal.
The Ancient Demon Courts indeed only had two difficulty settings on the surface. However, during his previous life, after his sub-world gained access to the Greater Gods Domain, the various powers in his sub-world came to realize that the Ancient Demon Courts actually had a hidden difficultyHell Mode.
Apart from being a much more challenging mode to tackle, Hell Mode was also the only place where players could acquire the true treasures the Ancient Demon Courts had to offer.
Meanwhile, activating an Ancient Demon Courts Hell Mode was simple. All that was needed was for a Grandmaster Magician to adjust the difficulty setting. However, as Grandmaster Magicians and Tier 6 God-ranked experts typically wouldnt visit Ancient Demon Courts, nobody in his previous lifes sub-world had noticed this feature until they gained access to the Greater Gods Domain.
