LWGP - Chapter 126

Chapter 126: Golden Python

Ever since Wang Jiu started her life of studying and working, it wasn't that no one had tried to trip her up. It just didn't happen often. In the beginning, her own excellence earned her a higher social standing, like a top student and senior sister whom the teachers would protect. Coupled with the Old Lady's backing, a large number of hostile people were filtered out from the start. But because of this, anyone who dared to make a move was someone with a bit of capability and background.

She always fought back. Either she suffered no loss, or she'd take a small hit early on and make up for it tenfold later.

But in the past, those schemes were more technical. Such a direct and crude method like today's was rare.

System: "You call this direct? Not insidious?"

Wang Jiu: "It was a bit obvious. The person who just used the aggro skill on me isn't far from here."

She had been working so hard these past few days; there couldn't be many in the Luoyang region who didn't recognize her. They knew who she was, yet they still made a move. Was her ferocity less intimidating than this herd of cattle?

That was what surprised Wang Jiu. However, the other party had already fled. Wang Jiu didn't have wings, so she couldn't chase after them for revenge. She just gave a deep, meaningful look in their direction before turning back to fight the herd with Bai Bai.

These cattle were all level 30, and the basic materials they dropped were a step up: beef, silk, mulberry hemp, goji berries, and other materials.

Bai Bai: "Why is it that the things that drop from the cattle you kill are all single items, while the ones I kill drop in piles?"

It asked with genuine innocence and curiosity.

Wang Jiu shot a cow with a basic arrow attack, causing it to explode. "Do you know how country folk slaughter chickens? They boil water, scald the feathers, then pluck them out handful by handful. By the end, the chicken skin is cooked, and the pores are wide open..."

Bai Bai: "..."

I thought you were just a treacherous Grandma Ancestor, but it turns out you're also a butcher who enjoys killing chickens.

But do you take me for one of those simpletons under your command? I won't be scared. As a high-blooded talent of the fox clan, I can be flexible and endure hardships for a greater purpose!

"Okay, Grandma Ancestor. I'll shut up, Grandma Ancestor."

The human and the fox killed the cattle herd without much effort, but soon, Wang Jiu felt something was wrong.

The number of cattle was too large. More importantly, the commotion was too great, and other monsters from the swamp were being drawn over.

It was endless.

If too many gathered, they would be more formidable than the Rat Tide.

Wang Jiu directly led Bai Bai, forcefully carving a path out before using Shadow Step to evade and escape.

A rumbling sound followed behind them, and the surroundings were not peaceful either. It seemed that wherever they ran, the roars of beasts would erupt in that area.

Bai Bai's perception was quite remarkable. Relying on its racial talent, it noticed the nearby mobs even before Wang Jiu. "They're still chasing you!"

Wang Jiu glanced at the status effect on her. "It has a duration. Half an hour. For the next thirty minutes, all the monsters in the entire swamp area will be aggroed to me. This is a pretty good item."

It was good, but it would be even better if it wasn't used on her.

Bai Bai had a realization. "No wonder they used it on you, even at the risk of offending you. Isn't this just to tie you down with endless mobs? They must be here for that golden bird's corpse too."

This Bai Bai was a bit of a chatterbox. Its incessant babbling had actually stumbled upon the truth.

It seemed the commotion from the Eternal Night expert killing the golden bird that day had spread. Other places aside, the South Luo River was located between the eastern and western parts of Luoyang. In fact, it was closer to the west.

Right now, the people from the east were mostly heading to Wang Jiu's Gobi. That meant the other party was, in all likelihood, from the west.

Just now, Wang Jiu had caught a glimpse of the figures fleeing; there seemed to be more than a dozen people.

The miasma inside the swamp was quite thick, surrounded by a layer of coniferous forest, but they had left behind many tracks.

"So many people. You humans are truly efficient when it comes to fighting over benefits."

Bai Bai had completely forgotten that it had risked its own life and shamelessly acknowledged a Grandma Ancestor in public just to eat other bosses.

It spoke with righteous indignation.

Wang Jiu, however, had no intention of mocking it, because she had a job for it. "You go in. Be stealthy. See for me how many people are inside and what their strength is."

Bai Bai had submitted to her and acknowledged her as its Grandma Ancestor, likely because it had recognized her power.

"Fine, but what are you going to do?" Bai Bai wasn't very loyal to Wang Jiu, so it was always a bit nitpicky and suspicious.

The moment it asked, a small bolt of lightning paralyzed its entire body—the punitive effect of the Slave White Paper.

Bai Bai was shocked. It demanded to know what it had done wrong!

"Unconditional obedience to commands. I wrote it in there."

"That's not right! That wasn't in the agreement. I read it carefully!"

"There's a pattern at the bottom. It's a border I drew using English words."

"..."

Was she talking about that lifelike border that looked like a decorative pattern native to the White Paper?

Fuck!

"So I'll go check and then come back to find you?"

"No need. The system has already defaulted you as my slave. You can join the party."

Wang Jiu added it to the party. Bai Bai seethed with hatred internally, but on the surface, it could only put on a happy face and type a line in the party channel.

"Thank you, Grandma Ancestor."

"You can go now."

"..."

Scammed because it didn't understand an international human language, Bai Bai's cute little face contorted with rage as it angrily burrowed into the ground and disappeared. Wang Jiu, on the other hand, turned and entered the mountain forest, her purpose unknown.


After burrowing underground, Bai Bai carefully crept through the rainforest and approached the edge of the lake. It hid behind a tree, peeking at the activity by the lakeside with a cute yet furtive grip on the trunk. It quickly relayed its findings to Wang Jiu in the party channel.

It was a short essay of about a hundred words.

Bai Bai: "First, I saw a group of people lying in the tall grass. They seemed to be using some kind of grass-hiding item. If it weren't for my special talent allowing me to see one person's peachy, perky butt, they almost would have fooled me. Then, another team surfaced from underwater. The group ambushing in the grass like dogs immediately erupted like wolves and attacked them. The people from the water were furious. Their leader cursed the grass team's captain, calling him some kind of toad. That toad then insulted the other party, calling them a pheasant. The pheasant team took a loss, with a wave of them dying in the water, but they immediately revived on the spot, got out of the water, and fought them. The two sides were fighting fiercely when a third group emerged from the rainforest on the opposite side. In just a few moves, they finished off the low-HP members of the first two groups, snatched a wave of dropped treasures, and then hid off to the side, playing the peacemaker to smooth things over. Then those two groups started cursing this third party, calling them a weasel..."

After reading the short essay, Wang Jiu only remembered this: the toad ambushed the pheasant, the pheasant cursed the toad, then the weasel jumped out and beat up both the jackal and the toad, and finally told the jackal and the toad to make peace.

Oh, and the peachy, perky butt.

A bit toxic.

Relying on her powerful analytical skills, Wang Jiu instantly sorted out the gist of the situation and asked, "So what are they doing now?"

Bai Bai: "Cursing at each other."

Wang Jiu: "..."

"Honestly, I feel like when you humans use these titles to insult each other, you never consider whether the jackals, pheasants, and weasels are happy about it."

Bai Bai's comment was full of sarcasm. Wang Jiu, however, raised an eyebrow. "It seems they really are from the west."

In the Luoyang forums, the most famous wasn't her annexation of a faction in the east, nor was it Fang Cun of the southern Mo Jiang Territory, who was tacitly acknowledged as Luoyang's strongest lord. It was the west. Its fame didn't come from the deeds of a single individual, but from the tripartite balance of power and its collection of monsters and demons—colloquially known as the zoo.

It was said to be full of hooligans, each one more fierce and blunt than the last. They'd rather fight than talk, but if talking could win, they were all top-tier masters of profanity, readily assigning all sorts of titles to people, most of which were based on animals.

However, the west was very strong, probably because it was filled with socially unstable elements who were belligerent and rowdy.

Their progress was surprisingly fast.

Bai Bai wasn't wrong—when they were cursing people out, they never considered the little animals' feelings.

Weren't those poor little animals wronged!

"They're not fighting, just cursing?"

"Yeah, stuff like 'despicable, shameless, bullying kids, inhumane'..." Bai Bai joined in the cursing with gusto, but unfortunately, Wang Jiu ignored it and just told it to wait where it was.

"Are you coming over?"

"Yes, in ten minutes."

But later, Wang Jiu asked Bai Bai a few more things.


Ten minutes later, the experts from the western zoo, who were in the middle of a cursing match, saw Wang Jiu emerge from the woods. All three teams seemed startled.

The toad, Chen Mo, narrowed his eyes, a flicker of apprehension in them. "Wang Jiu from the east?"

The pheasant, Zheng Guangcai: "It's her? That woman is here too. Everyone, quiet down. Stop cursing. A real badass has arrived."

The game had brought a new information age. The captains of the three strongest teams in the west all recognized Wang Jiu. They didn't act like the brain-dead villains in novels and TV shows, blindly provoking others.

They stopped their cursing and adopted a cordial posture. The "weasel" of the west, Lin Changze, smiled and said, "It's true that seeing is believing. You must be Gobi's Lao Wang?"

At first listen, it sounded like—You must be the cuckold next door?

She subconsciously glanced around at everyone and immediately saw the peachy-butted toad, Chen Mo—he was actually a 1.8-meter-tall, bald, sturdy man. His looks were unremarkable, but he had a sharp and fierce temperament. And this was how his social interaction began.

Wang Jiu: "..."

Bai Bai was startled. "Grandma Ancestor, he's cursing you."

Lin Changze was embarrassed and quickly apologized. "Lord Lao Wang, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

Chen Mo and Zheng Guangcai immediately kicked him while he was down. Fortunately, Wang Jiu was good-tempered and didn't get angry. She just smiled. "Mr. Huang, you're too kind. I've heard so much about you."

Lin Changze: "My surname is Lin."

After an "oh," Wang Jiu calmly and seriously said, "I think your surname is Huang."

The weasel, Lin Changze: "..."

Lin Changze was a refined man and quickly forgot this little episode. He asked with a polite smile, "Is Captain Wang also here by chance today to grind monsters and level up?"

"Not by chance. It's all thanks to an aggro aura someone threw at me."

Lin Changze was taken aback. "What does Lord Lao Wang mean by that? I didn't do it."

Wang Jiu crossed her arms, leaned against a tree, and said, "I didn't say you did it. Anyway, for that person, my eventual arrival here must be a bittersweet event."

"Although I don't know which shameless person plotted against Lord Lao Wang like this, half an hour has passed, and Lord Lao Wang has successfully shaken off the countless mobs in the swamp and finally arrived here. This is truly worthy of congratulations."

Lin Changze said, seemingly pleased.

But Wang Jiu gave him a deep look. "I never said I shook off those mobs."

When a vast and terrifying swarm of swamp creatures suddenly burst out from the rainforest and from underground, the lords of the three major western territories were all aghast.

In fact, they had followed her. Because she had personally taken a stroll through the habitats of several creature populations in the swamp, successfully luring tens of thousands of swamp mobs. Each one was more terrifying than a rat, and they all possessed an environmental talent mutated by the swamp—the ability to blend in and hide.

So...

"Wang Jiu, you're insane! What good does this do you?!" Lin Changze and the others roared as they were surrounded and fighting for their lives among the mobs.

Wang Jiu was also surrounded, but she said, "Isn't being able to finish you all off a benefit?"

Chen Mo: "You'll die too!"

Zheng Guangcai: "This woman is a lunatic!"

Wang Jiu: "No, I don't think I'll die."

Although the mobs were numerous, a dense, dark mass blocking all escape routes, there was one path left—the lakeside!

Chen Mo and the others also ran towards the lake, but Wang Jiu was faster. She quickly approached the shore and was about to enter the water when she suddenly saw a dazzling golden glow beneath the surface. Immediately after, she saw a pair of golden eyes as large as lanterns.

No, they were serpent pupils.

With a roar, a level 35 golden water python shot out. The lake's surface surged with vast waves, and water splashed everywhere. Amidst the shimmering spray, its golden scales, each as large as a plate, flowed with regular patterns. The golden light swirling within its pupils was filled with a ferocious and hungry spirituality.

At that moment, Wang Jiu received the following data on her opponent.

South Luo Golden Python (Golden BOSS, Level 35, Environmental Mutant)

Spirit Power: 2000

Strength: 5500

Agility: 3500

Stamina: 6000

Skill 1: Water Absorption Art. Can draw in surrounding water for its own use, forming powerful water pillars to attack opponents.

Skill 2: Fetid Wind. A terrifying poison gas, 100 times more toxic than the swamp miasma. Unresistable unless Stamina attribute reaches 10,000!

It has Spirit Power?

Wang Jiu was surprised, but the System informed her: "Golden bosses of a higher racial tier can use Spirit Power. Using Spirit Power to activate skills results in astonishing power. In this regard, they're no different from you players."

This was the real deal, plus ultra!

After confirming the stats, she knew it was an opponent she could never defeat!

Could the speed of growth never catch up to the speed of boss mutation created by the environment?

Wang Jiu immediately used Shadow Step to leap back, but it was too late. The golden python had intended to swallow her whole, but her speed and reflexes were fast—after all, her stats weren't low. So it opened its mouth and spewed a mouthful of poison gas. The effect was comparable to nuclear radiation... spreading out in a semicircle. Anyone who touched even the tiniest particle of the poison gas died instantly!

Including Wang Jiu. In mid-air, she died in an instant, a pile of items dropping from her body.

Wang Jiu died. She finally died. If Liao Luo and the others were here, they would definitely set off firecrackers to celebrate—congratulations to Lao Wang on her first death!

In that same instant, Lin Changze and the others all died as well.

Three teams, with average attributes all over 800. There were a total of 8 people with average attributes over 1000, and the three leaders, Lin Changze and company, were experts with attributes over 1500. Yet, they were all insta-killed.

No wonder. Even Wang Jiu, with average attributes over 3000, was insta-killed.

A ground full of corpses, a ground full of items.

But in a certain channel.

Zheng Guangcai: "Hahaha, this Wang Jiu, she's so conceited and clever. She definitely never imagined she'd fall for it!"

Chen Mo: "Let's just talk about it here. Let's see if she revives and ties up this golden python."

They soon saw Wang Jiu revive on the spot. She increased the distance and began to use the crowding of the other mobs to entangle the golden python.

Zheng Guangcai: "So powerful. She can even get away with that. A pity she's too arrogant."

Chen Mo: "Don't underestimate her. I bought a video of her killing the golden rat. It was another case of the weak killing the strong. And don't forget, she's the lord of Gobi. The number of people under her is no less than our three territories combined. If she really brings people over, she might have a way to deal with this golden python."

If it were anyone else facing this golden python, not reviving back to safety but instead continuing to engage, they would definitely think that person was arrogant and foolish. But since the person was Wang Jiu, the southern, northern, and western regions all held her in extremely high regard and were unwilling to underestimate her.

Unfortunately for her, they were confident in this scheme.

Because she had arrived here suddenly and was meeting them for the first time, it would be difficult for her to see through their act. Plus, with her extreme personality and powerful abilities, she would most likely engage the golden python. After all, for the strong, a golden boss was linked to resources, which were hard to give up.

So... their chance had come.

When Wang Jiu really did use her super-strong output and skills to hold the golden python's aggro, Lin Changze seized the opportunity and said, "Everyone, revive at the resurrection point!"

If Wang Jiu could see this channel, she would have discovered that in the legendary west of Luoyang, a place of mixed characters and a tripartite balance, the highest echelons of the three territories had actually chosen to form a single party—they weren't three groups, but one!

She had fallen into their trap from the very beginning.

And these people had long planned to have her hold the golden python's aggro while they feigned dying and returning to their territory, when in fact they were dying to respawn at the bottom of the lake.

A resurrection point + the golden python being lured away. These were the two necessary conditions.

In the channel, the group of people below all responded and were about to choose to revive en masse.

Suddenly, they received a system notification—"Sorry, your underwater resurrection point in the lake was just chewed to pieces five seconds ago."

Lin Changze and the others: "!!!"

There are many types of resurrection points, but the system won't proactively share this key information with you. If you succeed, you're lucky. If you run into trouble, you're unlucky.

Wang Jiu had run into Lin Changze, who possessed a special resurrection point. This fellow had a harmless-looking face but was skilled at scheming. After obtaining this special resurrection point, he had been plotting how to make the most of it. It was both lucky and unlucky that he encountered the environment of the South Luo River.

There was treasure at the bottom of the lake, but it was guarded by the South Luo River's big boss, the golden python, a creature they couldn't defeat even if their numbers were multiplied by ten. What could they do? They needed an expert like Wang Jiu to be the target.

Of course, Chen Mo's thinking was very proper—Lao Wang is super awesome, maybe she can kill the golden python. We're just delivering resources to her. Everyone gets what they need, a win-win situation. Very moral.

But they never expected that while the golden python was lured out and held by the formidable Wang Jiu, their resurrection point would be destroyed.

Who? Who the fuck did it?!

Just as they were utterly fucking shocked, Wang Jiu, who was holding the golden python's aggro, suddenly faced another roar from the python.

Whoosh! The poison gas spread. Wang Jiu, who was running wildly, once again fell from mid-air, dropping a few items. She landed at the edge of the distant woods, dying amidst a group of swamp mobs.

The mobs grew excited and swarmed her corpse, tearing at it.

The golden python was furious, eating its way through them one by one...

It seems it wasn't Wang Jiu.

In the channel, Lin Changze and the others discussed what to do next. They also asked the system why it hadn't warned them before.

System: "Warn you about what? This isn't a public resurrection point like a territory or a novice village. Private, special, small resurrection points are inherently hidden. You want the game to serve you? Dream on."

Even Wang Jiu got roasted by the system at every opportunity, let alone Lin Changze. The latter was helpless and could only ponder, "Just now, I was thinking that if Wang Jiu could tie it up, maybe we could send our most agile person to stealthily enter the water and pull the rest of the revived people over. But that's not possible now. The golden python's perception is extremely sharp; its pupils can see through our disguises..."

"Maybe we can do this: the rest of us get up and fight it to attract its attention. In the chaos, one person goes into the water."

Chen Mo: "That could work."

Zheng Guangcai: "I think this is a go."

They agreed on a plan, then revived as a group, surrounded the golden python, and madly threw their lives away... At that moment, Chen Mo quietly revived and, with the slightest movement, stealthed towards the lake. But before he could take more than a few steps, bang!

The serpent's tail whipped out and smashed him to pieces.

It's over!

This damned snake is too difficult!

The system clearly doesn't want them to get the resources at the bottom of the lake.

The fallen Chen Mo became a corpse, and Lin Changze and the others were all lying down again. The group was depressed. After planning for so long, this was the result?

"Forget it, let's go back. The gap is too big."

"The system clearly doesn't want us to get anything."

"But down there isn't just the boss corpse, there's also... wait, what's that? Holy shit!"

Zheng Guangcai cursed, drawing the others' attention. Lin Changze and Chen Mo saw that when the golden python bit down on Wang Jiu's corpse, the corpse was pierced by its fangs and then exploded.

A mid-tier Puppet.

They had tried using Puppets before. It was true that mid-tier Puppets had strong stealth capabilities, but no matter what creature it disguised itself as, it would be attacked by the high-damage golden python, unless it was an extremely tiny organism. But what use would that be? First, it couldn't use items like group teleportation arrays, and second, it didn't have enough combat power to lure the golden python away.

But they had indeed never tried using a Puppet to disguise itself as a corpse.

The corpse was a Puppet, so where did Wang Jiu go?!!

Right, the things she dropped after dying before weren't anything good, but they also kept their good items in their Homesteads, so they hadn't thought much of it.

She faked her death both times?

"No, the first time was real, the second was fake. The items she dropped didn't come from the 'corpse'; she threw them out herself. After throwing them, she must have replaced herself with a Puppet... So she didn't die that time but disappeared. She must have used a disguise Puppet or a higher-tier invisibility item."

Lin Changze leaned towards the former, because if she had such a powerful invisibility item, she could have just gone into the lake herself.

The one who chewed up their underwater resurrection point must have been her subordinate or one of her abilities.

"Damn it, she must have already gone into the lake!"

Wang Jiu had indeed already gone into the lake.

The first time, she truly couldn't withstand the golden python's poison wind, nor did she intend to. But the second time, she used the Dragon-Serpent Phantom in time and used one Exemption to resist the poison wind's fatal negative effect. In that same instant, a mid-tier Puppet became a corpse, while she herself used a sub-category of mid-tier Puppet—a sound-changing Puppet.

The Puppet became a corpse, the living person became an ant. Then, it hid under the corpse Puppet. She had the underwater Bai Bai use a single-person follow scroll (bought from a stall for 100 gold). The teleportation halo shrank along with her body size and was concealed by the corpse, successfully teleporting her underwater.

Underwater, Bai Bai had just finished gnawing through Lin Changze and the others' resurrection point in a few bites. Not far below the resurrection point was the golden python's underwater lair.

The massive golden boss corpse lay there quietly. A third of its body had already been eaten, but it could still be unlocked by players to obtain terrifying treasures.

And it had been lying there for three days. Even the golden python couldn't devour it completely, which showed that it was much higher-level and more powerful than the python.

Wang Jiu used Insight and found that it was sixteen levels higher than her.

Green-Eyed Golden Line Eagle (Death Mutant, Golden BOSS, Level 45)

Spirit Power: 6000

Strength: 10000

Agility: 10000

Stamina: 10000

Note: Insta-killed by the descent of Eternal Night. Mutated out of terror and unwillingness, but ultimately could not resist death and could only slumber underwater...

As for its skills, there were seven or eight of them, all a bunch of question marks. The system prompted that the opponent's skills had a level limit, and she couldn't view them, probably because they involved the level 40 threshold.

Even the Demon's Eye couldn't see them. They must be really awesome.

But this note is a bit interesting.

Wang Jiu was lost in thought. She reached out and touched it to unlock it, while also telling Bai Bai to keep an eye on the situation above.

Unlocking it would take some time. She hoped Lin Changze and the others above wouldn't figure out her deception too soon.

One was unlocking, the other was observing the surface. Bai Bai suddenly asked, "How did you know their real plot? That there was a terrifying boss under this lake, and to have me sneak down to check?"

Wang Jiu was too impatient to explain, so she replied, "Figure it out yourself."

Seriously, so cold and heartless.

Bai Bai could only think for itself, and it actually figured it out quickly.

The half-hour aggro aura could indeed make Wang Jiu flee in disarray, unable to focus on searching for the golden boss's corpse. But with Wang Jiu's personality, she would definitely harbor resentment and come for revenge against Lin Changze, who had deliberately exposed his tracks. Logically, the casting range of the aggro aura was much greater than the distance between them at the time. He could have entered the lake area from much farther away. Why did he choose a position that was neither too far nor too close?

Working backward, if they deliberately let Wang Jiu discover them, they had many people, and she had few. She would most likely lure a large number of monsters from the swamp.

But that wouldn't do them any good either.

Unless, working backward a second time, Lin Changze had actually wanted Wang Jiu to lure these swamp mobs all along. He wanted to use this much "food" to draw something out—most likely, there was a boss underwater. And this boss was ferocious, had a large appetite, was highly alert, and had strong perception. It couldn't be lured out without a massive amount of flesh. That's why even with the aggro aura, Lin Changze couldn't just have a high-agility person lure the boss away; he had to pick a strong person like Wang Jiu.

Working backward again, why would Lin Changze need time? Once she lured the mobs and the monster from below, it was uncertain if she would die, but they definitely would. Reviving on the spot would be useless because they'd die again immediately, with no chance to get near the lake. In that case, they wouldn't get any benefits either—so it was highly likely they had placed an item similar to a town portal or a fixed-point teleportation device underwater beforehand.

As long as the underwater monster was lured away, they could die and respawn directly at the fixed point underwater, safely taking all the benefits from the Green-Eyed Golden Line Eagle.

Furthermore, Wang Jiu had speculated about their true relationship because the three teams were only cursing, not fighting, and weren't even afraid of attracting some mobs. Sure enough, she saw that the equipment dropped by the toad and pheasant teams later returned to their bodies. This was an inconspicuous bug, but who would check someone else's attributes twice?

Wang Jiu would. Bai Bai would too.

And so, from these small flaws, the entire plan was deduced.

This was the most logical deduction, but Wang Jiu wasn't 100% certain, so she had Bai Bai go into the water to check.

And Bai Bai could detect a faint trace of the golden python's aura in advance, yet the underwater python didn't come out to eat this little fox of no low lineage. This showed that its racial stealth talent was superior to the python's perception, but the prerequisite was that it couldn't take any action.

So here came the key point—if Wang Jiu also wanted to take the benefits of the Green-Eyed Golden Line Eagle, she also had to lure away the golden python. Conversely, Lin Changze and the others could also be the bait she threw out.

Finally, after getting Bai Bai's survey results of the Green-Eyed Golden Line Eagle and the resurrection point from underwater, Wang Jiu made her move.

But there were two other strange points. Bai Bai asked, "First, how did they know you would come today? Oh, right, the day you came to the South Luo River, I was there too. I noticed there were some other people besides you, but they weren't important, so I didn't pay attention. Could those people have been Lin Changze's men?"

"But if scouting requires a lot of people, collecting the corpse doesn't. Why did they bring so many people?"

Wang Jiu didn't understand either, but it wasn't important. The unlocking process was in its final stage.

Its corpse began to turn transparent, but through its transparency, Wang Jiu saw something inside it—a Vortex!

It was a dungeon Vortex!

She suddenly remembered something—the Vortex being carried by the plane.

No wonder. No wonder Lin Changze and the others brought so many people.

No wonder the first time she came to the South Luo River,

Wang Jiu was stunned, but her eyes flashed. "If this is a level 40 dungeon, I'm not interested in running it."

She checked, and the system replied—A level 30 tier dungeon.

This would do.

Wang Jiu quickly gathered a group of people and then tore open a group teleportation scroll.

At the same time, Bai Bai heard someone on the shore above revive and shout, "Stupid snake, someone's gone into the water to raid your lair!"

"We're screwed, Grandma Ancestor, it's coming down!" As Bai Bai swam down quickly, the giant python above roared, swallowed the person who had shouted, and then its massive head plunged beneath the water's surface. Its golden scales seemed to devour both light and darkness as it swam frantically downwards.

At the same time, the Green-Eyed Golden Line Eagle's corpse reached 100% unlocked. A bloody light entered Wang Jiu's palm, and after the corpse disappeared, it left behind a dungeon Vortex. Eight halos of light also appeared beside Wang Jiu.

Before they could even get a clear look at Wang Jiu's face, they were all crushed by the underwater pressure and choked on water. Then they saw the terrifying golden python less than twenty meters away.

What a massive, bloody maw.

Wang Shu and the others: "!"

The next second, into the dungeon!

Roar! The golden python's poison wind descended first, but the group transformed into light amidst the gust and entered the Vortex.

Dungeon, activated!
