Chapter 1114: 1114
“This dungeon seems a little weird…”
Looking at this sudden system notification, Wang Yu couldn’t help but question .
To be honest, everything about this dungeon and quest seemed legitimate and in accordance with the background story . The only peculiarity about it was the very last sentence of the system notification .
Fighting dungeons in a game was a natural thing to do but that very last sentence was indeed suspicious .
Why would they affect the gaming experience by simply fighting a dungeon? Unless there were additional content that were not suitable for children?
This was especially true for the sentence ‘the gaming company reserves the right of final explanation’ made Wang Yu even more confused .
It wasn’t as though Wang Yu hadn’t seen anything like that before . It usually appeared after a system update or behind a gaming company’s declaration . Once a sentence like this appeared, it meant that the law could be brought into effect .
For example, it could work on incidents where players lose any kind of wealth after a system update .
One must know that it was logical and reasonable for players to drop equipment after being defeated by BOSS . However, it simply didn’t make sense for them to lose any items after a system update without doing anything wrong .
Wasn’t this just an ordinary dungeon? Why did they have to add this sentence? Unless this BOSS is capable of altering data? No way, this will be too despicable because no matter how impressive an NPC is, he shouldn’t be able to alter equipment for himself right? Wouldn’t that be the same as what happens with Skynet in Terminator?
As Wang Yu continued wondering, he frowned as he turned to look at Mystery Observer and the rest .
Presently, Mystery Observer looked dumbfounded as he was mumbling to himself, “F*ck… F*ck… This is actually Dominica’s challenge mode?”

Five Flagtree had the same expression as Mystery Observer and both of them looked incredibly fearful towards this dungeon .
Unfathomable Mystery cried out in desperation, “I’ve killed myself intentionally to rush here but I’m still one step too late… Is this fate?”
Seeing the reaction of these three people, Wang Yu was even more confused . Wang Yu might be incredibly strong but his knowledge for the content of this game could be described as barren .
Wang Yu was speechless for a while before inquiring, “What kind of dungeon is this?”
“City Lord Iron Bull doesn’t know about this challenge?”
When Mystery Observer and the rest heard Wang Yu’s question, they frowned and looked at him .
In their subjective consciousness, they always believed that Wang Yu, as the City Lord of Twilight City and a reputable expert, should understand every aspect of the game much better than anyone else . Who would have expected him to not know about Dominica’s challenge?
“I have no idea . ” Wang Yu replied honestly, “But from all of your expressions, this dungeon seems pretty scary . ”
“Scary?”
Mystery Observer pouted his mouth before replying shakily, “It is more than scary… It is frightening . ”

“Why so?” Wang Yu asked .
“Ai!” Mystery Observer shook his head with a sigh, “This is not an ordinary dungeon but a guild challenge quest . It is famous for being the kind of challenge that one cannot return from . ”
In the system settings of , dungeon challenge quest was independent of the other modes .
It wasn’t hard to differentiate between ordinary and challenge dungeon . For ordinary dungeon, it would be based on the history of the game and allow the players to look back on the storyline of the game .
For challenge quest, it requires the players to challenge one of the greatest NPCs in the game to write the plot of the story by themselves .
For example, Dominica was one of the strongest NPCs in the Dark Faction and had never been defeated before . Therefore, players could only attempt to kill him through the challenge mode .
Instead of calling it a dungeon, it should be regarded as a secondary plot in the game . All the other quests that Wang Yu had activated were merely based on the original storyline of the game . Challenge quest, on the other hand, required the players to use their true strength to push forward the plot to kill such an influential NPC .
The moment Dominica was killed, this quest would turn into another original quest .
Of course, this alone should still not be capable of frightening Mystery Observer and the rest to such an extent .
The three of them were in so much shock entirely because of the settings of the challenge mode .
Players who loved to game should know that dungeons were only created in an independent mirror space to challenge certain characters or group of people in the main world .

Under the challenge mode, players in this space were not in any kind of mirror space but the honest and true main world .
Because of this, there was no option for them to back out of a challenge dungeon . Additionally, there would be a resurrection point in the challenge scene for the challengers to resurrect .
Evidently, the system’s intention was that as long as the players couldn’t clear the stage, they would never be able to leave this scene .
During the beta testing, there were people who accidentally triggered the Dominica’s challenge mode .
At that point, everyone’s average levels were slightly higher than present . Moreover, the players entered the dungeon altogether as an entire guild . After entering the dungeon quest, nobody ever saw them in the game anymore . Everyone only found out about what this Dominica challenge mode was after many complain posts went up on the forum .
Nobody knew how the gaming company settled this issue but all of the players involved in beta testing knew about this dungeon quest where players couldn’t return from .
Even after the completion of beta testing and the official release of the game, people were still talking about this terrifying rumour .
While Mystery Observer and Five Flagtree hadn’t been through beta testing, they knew a thing or two about the gossips around the gaming industry .
One must know that back then, the dungeon swallowed an entire guild and everyone there was at least a level 60 expert . Even they were unable to return so what hope do the few of them have?
If they couldn’t escape and couldn’t complete this dungeon quest, it seemed highly likely that they have to spend the rest of their gaming career here .
At the thought of this, Mystery Observer revealed yet another look of desperation on his face .
“Hmm…”
After saying that, Wang Yu scratched his chin and asked Mystery Observer, “Since you know about this, why did you still snatch that Black Decree?”
“F*ck!” The moment Wang Yu mentioned this, Mystery Observer felt even more depressed . “If I knew that plaything will activate this challenge quest, I would never have snatched that . It’s all…”
Mystery Observer blushed as he continued, “It’s all because of the ladies from Thousand Waves Palace who kept saying how great this is…”
“No way…” Five Flagtree asked doubtfully, “When we looked for this item, we didn’t actually disclose anything . ”
“Don’t you know there is a job called undercover?” Mystery Observer asked .
Five Flagtree, “…”
“Haha!” Wang Yu sneered coldly, “You are a classic example of trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it . They must be targeting you from the start which explains their ploy to trick you . ”
