The strangeness has come, I am a god with trillions of ghost money

Chapter 340 The Sword Saint of Xuanyuan is her adopted son? Who would believe that!

"Ten stars".

Upon hearing Master Xiao's reply, the expressions of the others who got off the hearse changed.

"Ten stars?! My God, is there no justice in this world? Are they trying to kill everyone in Jiang City?!"

"A chain of dungeons is one thing, but the dungeon connected to the eight-star dungeon is actually a ten-star dungeon?!"

"So, even if you risk your life to get out of an eight-star dungeon, it doesn't count as clearing the dungeon. Instead, you'll enter a higher-level ten-star dungeon?"

Sect Leader Xiao nodded solemnly.

He continued, "Actually, after that dungeon was upgraded to eight stars, we had no idea what was going on inside. None of the players who were pulled in came out alive."

I knew this was a linked dungeon, and connected to the ten-star dungeon, because Mr. Xi told me after he returned.

Song Mang frowned and pondered for a while.

She asked, "What's the name of that eight-star dungeon? And what's the name of the dungeon connected to the eight-star dungeon?"

"The eight-star instance in Jiang City is called Doomsday Judgment. We don't know what instance is connected to Doomsday Judgment yet. Mr. Xi said he sent someone to investigate."

"The Last Judgment..."

Song Mang murmured, somewhat puzzled, "This instance couldn't possibly be a series of instances; it's just a natural disaster instance with a harsh survival environment. How did it become a series of instances?"

"You know anything about this instance?"

Sect Leader Xiao pressed for an answer.

Song Mang said, "I saw discussion posts about this instance on the forum. At that time, the instance was not high-level and the death rate was not high, so I thought it didn't need to be taken seriously. I didn't expect such an anomaly to happen."

Sect Leader Xiao sighed.

"This dungeon used to be quite ordinary, and most players could come out alive. When you were pulled into the Crimson Invitation, this dungeon was only four stars, and it couldn't even compare to the Crimson Invitation."

In just two days, this thing grew to eight stars and was even connected to a ten-star dungeon.

Both being eight-star dungeons, Doomsday Judgment currently has over ten thousand deaths, far fewer than Crimson Invitation.

But before Doomsday Judgment was upgraded to eight stars, the number of deaths in this instance was only two thousand.

In other words, within two days, this instance caused the deaths of tens of thousands of people.

Also.

The death toll is still rising rapidly.

Su Yun also received the message. She glanced at her phone and said, "The last batch of players who entered the instance have all been wiped out. Doomsday Judgment has captured another two thousand players."

Although only a small number of players are captured each time, the dungeon ends very quickly.

"Two thousand players?"

Sect Leader Xiao said with a grim expression, "The number of players captured last time was about a thousand, but this time the number has doubled!"

Song Mang thought for a moment and said, "We must resolve this instance as soon as possible. If we let it continue to grow, it may become a double ten-star instance, and it may even become a temple instance."

If the Doomsday Judgment turned into a temple instance, the instance area would cover the entire Jiang City, and every living person in Jiang City would be pulled in—that would be true purgatory!

While typing and sending messages quickly, Su Yun said, "I'll report this first. Since it's such an important thing as a chain of instances, we can request support from headquarters."

Song Mang glanced at her and said, "Then do we have to wait for the people from headquarters to arrive and enter this instance with them?"

"It better be this way!"

Su Yun said, "We don't have enough manpower in Jiang City to go into this instance. If all the experts perish inside, Jiang City will be in danger. I'll bring some people into the instance with you. Sect Leader Xiao and Qifeng can stay outside to handle things, so that other unexpected situations don't happen in Jiang City while we're away."

Thinking of the situation in Haicheng, Su Yun said to Song Mang, "Song Mang, although we have conflicts with the people at headquarters, headquarters is not just a place where one director-general has the final say; there are many other big shots there as well."

Senior Xuanyuan, who came out of the dungeon with you earlier, is also one of the elders of the headquarters. The Xuanyuan family also has a lot of influence in the headquarters.

"I've reported the emergency situation in Jiang City, and headquarters certainly won't stand idly by. When they send people, it'll be easier for us to go into the instance together."

"Then I'll just talk to Xuanyuan Sheng and have him bring his men over."

"...?"

Su Yun's expression froze.

Before she could speak, Sect Leader Xiao said, "Disciple, don't joke around. It would be such a big deal to have the Xuanyuan family head come directly here!"
Who is Xuanyuan Sheng? He is the number one swordsman and the strongest person in China, wielding the Xuanyuan Divine Sword. Even the chief commander of the Ghost Suppression Division has to show him respect!

Song Mang: "So what happened?"

Sect Leader Xiao said earnestly, "Let me put it this way to you: before the Chief Commander's son became successful, the Chief Commander didn't dare to speak loudly in front of Xuan Yuansheng!"
Even if a series of attacks occurred in Jiang City and headquarters needed to send reinforcements, it's impossible for them to send a big shot like that! Do you know how much influence that would require?

Although he has now advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, in terms of combat ability, he is no match for Xuanyuan Sheng.

Sword cultivators are reckless brutes; fighting beyond their level is a piece of cake for them. Xuanyuan Sheng even has the Xuanyuan Divine Sword!
Song Mang, however, still asked the same question: "So what?"

"...?"

Sect Leader Xiao's eye twitched involuntarily. "Why won't you listen to me, child? Although you have money, the Xuanyuan family is not short of money."

Those sword cultivators are too proud and look down on these material possessions. No matter how much money you spend, you still can't get Xuan Yuan Sheng to help you!

"I didn't intend to pay him."

Song Mang said, somewhat speechless, "This is my godson. It's only right that I ask him to help. If he doesn't come to help his godfather when he's in trouble, what kind of godson is he?"

"...?"

What adopted son?
Who is her godson?

Sect Leader Xiao stared at Song Mang for a long time, then suddenly realized something and pulled Su Yun aside.

"Su Yun, has this girl become mentally unstable due to having too many ghost cards bound to her?"
Let me tell you, a lot of people have experienced this recently, and some have even gone crazy and killed people!
The Ghost Suppression Division has captured quite a few of these lunatics, and they're all locked up in the dungeon now. Those people like to ramble on all day and crawl around in the shadows of the dungeon.

"It actually happened..."

Su Yun quickly asked, "Have you checked the ghost cards bound to those people? Have their malice levels exceeded the limit?"

Each Joker card has a value of malevolence behind it. Once the total value of malevolence exceeds thirty, the malevolent energy in the Joker card will affect the player's mind.

The higher the Joker's rank, the more malevolent energy it generates.

Song Mang had previously told Su Yun about this situation, and Su Yun had already announced it within the Ghost Suppression Division, instructing all trainees to pay attention to the evil intent value of the ghost tokens.

Song Mang had mentioned this on the forum, but few people took it to heart. Most people believed that the more powerful the Joker card, the better.

"Yes, it exceeded the limit."

Sect Leader Xiao looked at Song Mang and said, "This girl has quite a few powerful ghost cards, and her evil value must be too high, right? Otherwise, how could she say such nonsense as the Xuanyuan Sword Saint being her adopted son?"

"If a powerhouse of Xuanyuan Sheng's caliber were her adopted son, wouldn't I have to be her grandson?"

As they were talking, Sect Leader Xiao noticed that Song Mang was still making a phone call while holding a paper smartphone.

"Hey, big son, you're not going back to the capital? You've come all the way to Jiang City before you've even gone back. I need to talk to you."
