Those who reincarnate must die.

As dusk fell, a long queue formed at the reward redemption counter next to the plaza in front of the Radiant City Palace. (Google search reading)

Although the dungeon does not have a day-night cycle, the reincarnators still follow their biological clocks. They are more accustomed to going out to fight during the day and returning at night to exchange for rewards and rest...

Of course, there are those who do the opposite, resting during the day and hunting at night. However, this underground city is fraught with danger, so if possible, it's better for everyone to work together, so that they can help each other if anything happens.

As for the possibility of stealing prey, this desert underground palace spans over ten kilometers in circumference and covers an area of ​​over a hundred square kilometers, much larger than the sewers or even the entire Radiant City. There are tens of thousands of monsters inside, and with only two or three hundred people and dozens of teams, it's really not worth fighting to the death over prey.

It was evening, a peak time for redeeming rewards.

Zhang Lang and Lei Ting walked to the square. Seeing the long queue, Zhang Lang said to Lei Ting, "You stay here and wait in line. I'll go check at the front!"

Thunder didn't say anything, but stood obediently at the end of the line. The people in front of him recognized this hero-level figure and were a little nervous. Some even offered to give him their place to cut in line, but he refused and just waited patiently.

As for Zhang Lang, he didn't receive such good treatment. When he walked to the front and squeezed into the exchange area, many reincarnators shouted in dissatisfaction, warning him not to cut in line. Some even came out and tried to pull him out, but Zhang Lang was too lazy to pay attention to them. He sped in, leaving only a blur.

Upon seeing Zhang Lang enter, the official in charge of inspecting the materials immediately stopped what he was doing, stood up, and greeted him: "Count Hunter...would you like to exchange your bounty first?"

Upon hearing this, the people in the room all looked at Zhang Lang with displeasure. In the eyes of the natives, he was a count, but in their eyes, he was just a reincarnator who had obtained a high status...

Zhang Lang glanced around and saw that the exchange counter was much busier than in the morning. In addition to the official, there were several assistants who looked like ordinary employees. It must be because there were too many people coming to return or exchange items, and they were too busy to handle it all.

Zhang Lang snapped out of his thoughts and said to the official, "I've arrived at the third floor and would like to report on the situation there."

Although Zhang Lang spent most of the day hunting monsters in the desert dungeon, he hadn't received any notification from the altar about a reward for everyone if someone reached the third level. So, besides him, no one else should have gone to the third level today, or if they did, they didn't come back to report...

This is not hard to understand. The monsters on the second floor are already quite difficult for most of the sacrifices, and they basically have no time to pay attention to anything else. Even if they are relatively strong, they may not be able to find the hidden door in this huge desert. Even if they do find it, the official bounty has not been opened yet, and ordinary people will not go in rashly. Who knows what kind of threat is inside? It is better to wait for the heroes to explore the way and open the bounty before considering it.

As for those few hero-level characters, they were probably intimidated and didn't dare to meddle in other people's business...

Upon hearing this, the official immediately ordered someone to take Zhang Lang upstairs. The elderly scholar upstairs consulted ancient texts and, following Zhang Lang's description, quickly confirmed that this floor was indeed called the "Extreme Cold Underground Palace!"

"According to records, there have been thirty-two types of monsters on this floor, but if they appear on the third floor, the thirteen strongest ones shouldn't be there... As for the gatekeeper monster, it should be the Frost Giant King..."

"The Frost Giant King?" Zhang Lang raised an eyebrow.

"Frost Giants are high-level monsters that only appear in the Frost Palace below the fifth level. They average eight meters in height, have ice-blue skin, are strong, and know ice and snow magic... The Frost Giant King is the strongest Frost Giant. In the deeper levels, he is considered a high-level elite monster, but if he appears in the third level, he is a lord-level monster!"

"Thank you for the information, Earl Hunter!" The old scholar nodded. "I will immediately inform His Majesty and draft the bounty for the Ice Palace as soon as possible!"

"Sigh, I really hope this underground palace adventure ends here and doesn't continue..."

In the indigenous people's understanding, they did not know that whether the lower levels were opened or not was determined by the reincarnators. They thought that the number of levels in these multi-level underground palaces was random. If the reincarnators conquered the third level and then chose to close the door, then this time it would be a three-level underground palace, and if they conquered the fifth level, it would be a five-level underground palace... Little did they know that each time the underground palace appeared, it actually had nine levels; it just depended on how far the reincarnators could reach.

Zhang Lang nodded. He wouldn't stop, but he also wouldn't let these underground monsters run rampant.

Since he can break through, he can kill them so they dare not show their faces!

Zhang Lang returned to the lower level and found that the line had shortened considerably, and Thunder's conspicuous power armor was almost at the entrance of the appraisal office. When he went upstairs just now, Thunder's line was quite long; it had only taken him about ten minutes to go up and down, and now he was almost there?

"You guys are very efficient!" Zhang Lang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"It's not our fault..." The official handed his work to his subordinate and came over to talk to Zhang Lang: "Someone just came to inform us that the tycoon Gildman is also offering a reward for these materials, and he's offering double the official price. Many people heard about it and went there..."

Gilderman? Zhang Lang recalled the red-bearded businessman he had met at the ball; he had indeed discussed purchasing materials with him before…

"Don't you feel any sense of crisis?" Zhang Lang continued, asking the official, "Won't the high prices offered by private individuals for reward materials steal business from the government?"

"This isn't business..." the official chuckled. "It's all about contributing to clearing out monsters and maintaining peace... Besides, Gildman offered a quota, buying up large quantities of materials at once... A single team of heroes simply can't provide that much. Those who left are actually figuring out how to team up to complete the mission."

"But I estimate... based on the number he requested, it will take three to five days to gather all these people..." The official shrugged.

As they were speaking, Thunder's massive power armor was already standing at the door.

Seeing that his backpack was almost at the front of the line, Zhang Lang asked the official, "Is the reward enough?"

"Oh... Your Excellency, there's no need to worry..." the official chuckled. "We've prepared ample gold and banknotes, and the Imperial Bank is right next door. To support this raid on the dungeon, the Imperial Bank will be available 24/7 and will never delay the heroes' bounties!"

Zhang Lang nodded, watching as another reincarnator redeemed their bounty and left, but Thunder did not advance...

The door to the exchange point was wide enough that even Thunder's power armor, which was three heads taller than a normal person, could barely fit through. But for some reason, this guy stopped at the door, letting the people in front of him exchange their bounties and leave, creating a gap in the line, and refusing to go forward and enter the door.

"Hey, what are you waiting for? Is the battery dead?" Some of the people in line behind him were getting impatient, and some even tried to cut in line, but were pulled back by Thunder's mechanical arm.

"What's the rush? I'm not affecting the order!"

His heroic reputation still resounded. Seeing that he was alright, no one dared to say anything more. Even though they were puzzled, they waited obediently behind him.

Finally, all the offerings placed before Thunder finished exchanging their bounties and left. The official at the exchange point made a record, looked up and saw Thunder outside the gate, and felt a little strange.

"Warrior, you may come in now. You don't need to stand so far away..."

As he spoke, an employee came out from behind the counter, intending to go to the door to call him!

"No need!" Zhang Lang, who had been sitting next to him, stopped him gently, pushing him back slightly. "Make room!"

"Huh?" The employee asked, puzzled. Zhang Lang nodded and said, "We're together!"

Since the count said to leave, then leave... The clerk returned to the counter, and the reincarnators queuing behind him curiously peeked out, wondering what this hero was up to.

Lei Ting raised his hand and suddenly opened a storage space door. This time, however, the opening faced downwards, and with a wave of his hand, various monster bounty materials began to fall out...
