Are you kidding me?! The boss of the Hell Dungeon is a loli!

Whoosh.

Whoosh.

Two whooshing sounds came from the dead trees on the left and right sides.

A group of more than a dozen people rushed out from the left.

The man in the lead wore a blue trench coat, and his body was surrounded by strange, violent wind-based rules.

With each step he took, the wind carved deep furrows into the soil beneath his feet.

A group of fully armed players also appeared on the right.

The leader was a bald, burly man carrying a heavy chainsaw that was half his height. The chainsaw's chain was studded with densely packed, gleaming white teeth and emitted a nauseating, bloody stench.

"Azure Dragon, White Tiger." Xuanwu put down the spectral shield and went to meet them.

"Xuanwu, you guys are even faster than us." Qinglong sheathed his wind blades and glanced at the slightly disheveled team members behind Xuanwu. "What exactly happened on Zhuque's side? Is Red Moon Castle really that sinister?"

"They're all wiped out." Xuanwu's voice was low and deep.

"They didn't even send out a distress signal; there must be a monster there that's even more terrifying than Dracula."

White Tiger hoisted the heavy chainsaw onto his shoulder and spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva.

"Forget about Red Moon Castle, we've assembled our three S-rank strategy teams, a full forty elite players, and we've even brought three S-rank rule items!" White Tiger grinned, revealing two rows of gleaming white teeth. "Even if the King of Heaven himself came, we'd skin that old bat Dracula alive today!"

Jiang Luo hid behind the red leaves, peeking out half of her head.

Her large, ruby-like eyes darted around, her gaze sweeping over all the players present.

Forty advanced players!

Three S-rank rule items!

A whole bunch of Class A obstacle-breaking equipment!

(✧◡✧) Wow!

Jiang Luo felt that what was standing in front of him was not human, but a series of glittering golden mountains of terror.

If we squeezed every last drop of resources out of it, there would be more than enough to upgrade to SS-level, let alone renovate Red Moon Castle and fill it with marble, and even buy a ton of snacks for Little White!

Suck.

A drop of glistening saliva slid down Jiang Luo's lips and dripped onto the muddy ground.

She quickly wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, forcibly suppressing the urge to summon Jiang Xiaobai to eat at the buffet.

Autumn beans, sack of beans!

It's not time to close the net yet.

Lolo needs to make these韭菜 (a term for retail investors) fight Dracula to the death so that both sides are severely damaged, in order to maximize his profits.

The key is to bait out ultimate abilities with basic attacks!

"Xuanwu, who is this brat?" The Azure Dragon's sharp gaze fell on Jiang Luo.

A little white-haired girl, less than 1.4 meters tall, wearing a tattered dress and holding a rag bear, appeared in the final battle circle of the SS-level dungeon.

This scene looks incredibly eerie.

"Don't tell me this is an illegitimate daughter you picked up along the way." Baihu also came closer, his huge shadow enveloping Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo immediately put on her dramatic act, trembling with fear, and clung tightly to Hongye's leg.

"Waaaaah, the uncle is so scary! The uncle is going to eat the children!"

(╥﹏╥)

Hongye tenderly held Jiang Luo in her arms and glared at Baihu: "Don't scare her. She's an innocent passerby we found on the outskirts of the instance, who was mistakenly pulled in by the Abyss System."

"An innocent passerby?" Qinglong sneered. "Hongye, are you out of your mind? You believe this nonsense? This little girl doesn't even have a single life-saving item on her, how could she have made it this far alive?"

"She really doesn't have any props." Xuanwu strode over and blocked Jiang Luo's path. "But she seems to have a special ability."

The moment these words were spoken, the surrounding air immediately fell silent.

The mockery on Qinglong and Baihu's faces froze.

"Just now in the vampire labyrinth, the guiding spirit failed, and we were trapped near the Gate of Death." Xuanwu looked around at everyone. "She just pointed in a direction and led us out of the labyrinth's vicious cycle."

The entire audience erupted in uproar.

The forty elite players looked at each other in bewilderment.

See through the rules?

How is that possible!

The rules of the bizarre world are absolute laws, and even S-level players can only rely on bizarre items of the same level to fight against or distort them.

How could anyone possibly see through it all?

"Xuanwu, you're not kidding, are you?" Baihu's eyes widened, and he almost dropped the chainsaw on his shoulder.

"I swear on my life," Xuanwu said solemnly. "This little girl's intuition is terrifyingly accurate. In the upcoming battle, she might provide us with unexpected assistance."

Jiang Luo buried her face in Hongye's clothes, her shoulders trembling.

On the surface, she was crying, but in reality, she was almost internally injured from holding back laughter.

Hahahaha!

The trump card?

What the heck!

Lolo will bury you all in a minute!

Just then, the heavy bronze gate of Dracula's castle emitted a screeching sound.

The heavy, rusty drawbridge slowly descended, crashing onto the edge of the moat and splashing up large amounts of foul-smelling blood.

A strong smell of blood hit the air.

A headless butler in a tuxedo walked out down the suspension bridge.

Instead of bleeding from the severed neck, a ghostly blue flame of his soul burned within it.

The butler held a pure silver tray in his hands, covered with a red velvet cloth.

He stopped in the middle of the suspension bridge, a hoarse voice reverberating from his empty chest.

"Distinguished guests, Lord Dracula invites you."

The headless butler slowly lifted the red cloth.

There were no bloody organs as expected on the tray.

Forty brass keys, covered in dark red rust, were neatly stacked.

The key handle is engraved with a twisted bat totem.

The white tiger's eyes were wide open, with bloodshot veins covering the whites of its eyes.

Thick fingers gripped the chainsaw switch, and the chain emitted a piercing buzzing sound.

"What's this old bat up to? Trying to fool us with a bunch of junk? I'll tear this broken door down right now!"

The headless butler's empty chest resonated with hoarse syllables, completely ignoring the white tiger's threat.

"Distinguished guests, Lord Dracula, out of consideration for your long journey, has specially arranged for the preparation of fine guest rooms. Please take your respective room keys and proceed to the castle to rest."

Qinglong's brows furrowed into a tight knot.

Xuanwu raised his hand to calm his teammates' restlessness.

He stared at the pile of brass keys, and a scarlet system notification popped up on his retina.

[Ding! You have entered the SS-level eerie dungeon: Dracula's Castle.]

[The current dungeon completion requirements have been updated. Please read them carefully.]

[Completion Condition 1: Survive inside the castle for fourteen days.]

[Second condition for clearing the level: Defeat the dungeon boss, Count Dracula.]

[Completion Condition 3: Find the hidden passage to escape the castle.]

"It seems we've officially entered the dungeon." Xuanwu's voice was calm and carried absolute authority. "Put away all the strange items for now, prioritizing adherence to the dungeon rules."

Dracula's Castle is, after all, an SS-level dungeon.

The highest-ranking bizarre item they have is only S-rank; it's best to be cautious when facing SS-rank dungeons.

The white tiger got anxious, and the veins on its neck bulged.

"Captain, are you crazy? This is an SS-level dungeon! If we don't bring any defensive items, we're just delivering free food to these monsters!"

"You don't know anything!"

Qinglong slapped Baihu on the back of the head.

"This is Dracula's home turf. The SS-level rules suppress us more than ten times over compared to the outside world. Revealing your trump card now will only prematurely expose our strength!"

Xuanwu nodded and slung the grotesque shield back onto his back.

"Qinglong is right. Our goal this time is very clear: before we find Dracula's true form, we must abide by the rules of accommodation and must not deplete our combat power prematurely."
