LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 16: Invitation
Chapter 16: Invitation
Four second-turn bodyguards.
And three hidden professions close to level 30.
As expected of children from wealthy families!
This team configuration is enough for them to walk horizontally in the Wild Spirit Mountain Range.
It’s known that the highest level monster in the Wild Spirit Mountain Range is only level 35.
Of course...
What caught Wang Chen’s attention the most was not these wealthy children, but a silver gate not far from them.
This silver gate emitted a very mysterious spatial fluctuation. Faintly, you could hear the brutal roars from inside.
A wild secret realm!
This is actually a wild secret realm!
The so-called wild secret realm is a dungeon that randomly appears on the wild map. Clearing it can yield extremely rich rewards.
Looking at this silver gate, it’s clear that this wild secret realm is of silver rank!
A silver-rank wild secret realm!
Clearing it would surely yield silver-rank equipment and C-level or higher skill books, materials, and items!
Wang Chen’s highest equipment was only the bronze one-star Wolf King set!
Silver-rank equipment and C-level skill books, materials, and items are very precious in this remote city of Dongyun City!
No wonder this group of people is hesitating here.
It's because of this silver-rank wild secret realm.
But this has nothing to do with Wang Chen.
Thinking of this, he turned and walked in another direction of the Wild Spirit Mountain Range, planning to continue killing monsters and leveling up.
But at this moment...
One of the level 40 second-turn female assassin bodyguards suddenly tensed up, a sharp bronze seven-star dagger appeared in her hand, and she stared sharply in one direction, shouting, "Who's there!?"
Hmm?
As soon as these words fell, everyone in this wealthy team was on alert, instantly equipping their weapons and looking warily in the direction the female assassin bodyguard was staring at.
The name of this female bodyguard's second-turn profession was 'Shadow Stream Assassin.'
As an assassin, she was naturally sensitive to the gaze of others.
Just now, the female bodyguard sensed a gaze directed at her.
Wang Chen was a bit surprised by the fierce reaction of the other party. As expected of a second-turn expert, she noticed his gaze immediately.
However, he did not panic. He calmly walked out of the bushes and said loudly, "Everyone, don't be so excited. I'm just a passing newbie."
Passing by?
Newbie?
The originally alert people were slightly stunned by his explanation.
Then they saw...
After Wang Chen finished explaining, he indeed turned his head and walked in another direction without hesitation.
"Huh!?"
"Wang Chen!?"
"Are you Wang Chen!?"
Suddenly, a gentle girl protected by four bodyguards in the center exclaimed in surprise.
Wang Chen stopped and looked back at them.
"Miss, do you know him?" The female assassin bodyguard was a bit surprised.
"Yes, of course. Not only I know him, but also Nian Nian and Jia Wenxuan know him." The gentle girl smiled.
The bodyguards all looked at the other two young masters and ladies.
The handsome, elegant young man was Jia Wenxuan, the second young master of the Jia family.
The girl in the sailor suit, showing youthful charm and lively cuteness, was Ran Nian Nian, the eldest daughter of the Ran family.
As for the gentle and charming girl, her name was Liu Ruofu, the eldest daughter of the Liu family.
At this moment...
Facing the bodyguards' questioning gazes, both Jia Wenxuan and Ran Nian Nian slowly nodded.
However, Jia Wenxuan's face didn't look good, with a hint of shadow in his eyes.
Ran Nian Nian said softly, "In Dongyun City High School, no one doesn't know Wang Chen's name. He is a prominent figure in high school."
"Our Dongyun City High School holds a practical exchange competition every year."
"Wang Chen has won the championship for three consecutive years. Even the principal of our private aristocratic school claimed that in terms of combat skills, Wang Chen is qualified to be our teacher..."
The four bodyguards were shocked.
Hiss!
You can't tell!
This guy who claimed to be a 'passing newbie' is actually so powerful?
Seeing the surprised expressions of the bodyguards, Jia Wenxuan's heart grew even darker.
Because he had been the runner-up for three years!
Always second place!
Every year, in front of many classmates, he was beaten by this guy from a humble background!
It was extremely humiliating.
With his strong self-esteem, he naturally resented Wang Chen.
"What use are combat skills?"
"I heard he turned into a Beast Master during the recent job transfer ceremony, and his talent is only B-level."
"With his humble background, he probably can't afford even a first-tier profound beast. If we really fight now, I can easily crush him."
Jia Wenxuan spoke directly, not caring that Wang Chen was there.
The bodyguards were also surprised and regretful.
Jia Wenxuan was right.
Now that Wang Chen has turned into a Beast Master, he has fallen from the altar and no longer has his previous dominance.
Even a student with a hidden profession could probably crush him.
Wang Chen smiled indifferently at his opponent's taunts, not caring at all.
"If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving." Wang Chen waved and prepared to leave.
"Wait."
Liu Ruofu called him back.
"Is there something else?"
"Yes."
Liu Ruofu nodded slightly and then smiled gently, "Wang Chen, you must have seen that silver gate not far away, right?"
Wang Chen nodded.
Anyone who wasn't blind could see it.
"It's like this. Based on our earlier investigation, this is a level 20-30 silver five-star wild dungeon, requiring at least four people to enter."
"We're just short of one teammate now, and we know you well enough to trust you, so I want to invite you to join us and make up the number. Would that be okay?"
Liu Ruofu looked at Wang Chen with a hint of request in her watery eyes.
Hmm?
Such a good thing?
Wang Chen didn't expect to be invited to join a dungeon raid.
But before he could respond...
Jia Wenxuan squinted his eyes and said calmly, but with undisguised contempt, "Ruofu, don't be in a hurry to invite. The dungeon's entry level requirement is 20-30. Is he at the right level? Let him reveal his level information first."
Everyone reacted to these words.
Right...
As a commoner, Wang Chen was just level 10 at the job transfer ceremony a few days ago.
It’s impossible for him to suddenly jump to level 20 in such a short time.
With this in mind, Liu Ruofu's pretty face showed a hint of regret.
