Chapter 420: The Second Silver Coin

【Dodge +45】

【Speed +5%】

【Passive Skill: Flag Bearer】

【When carrying this equipment, you will more easily become the target of enemy attacks, and when suffering an attack, your dodge probability increases by 15%.】

【Active Skill: Inspiring】

【As long as the flag bearer has not fallen, the army will not rout; the holder waves the flag, increasing the damage correction of all our units by 15% and Crit +8%.】

【A flag carried by a Burning Legion flag bearer; wherever it goes, not a blade of grass grows, and raging fires find no rest.】

Huh? This isn't right.

How does Yun Mu remember that after a Burning Legion flag bearer blows the horn, the attributes provided are 【Speed +15%, Dodge +50, Precision Correction +35, Crit +15%】?

How come when it gets to her, it's only left with damage correction +15% and Crit +8%? Are they castrating the stats or what?

Or is it that the flag alone isn't enough, and she also needs the Burning Legion flag bearer's horn to unleash the full equipment effect?

Hmm. The probability of equipment dropping from monsters is already low, and needing specific equipment to drop from a specific monster makes it even more unrealistic.

Although Yun Mu prides herself on having decent luck, it isn't that good, and besides, the horn and such were just her own guesses.

Thinking about it carefully, the effect of the Command Banner is actually not bad.

Dodge and speed are both useful attributes, and the active skill is still a very rare full-team buff.

Although it looks a bit worse compared to the Burning Legion flag bearer, it is enough to use.

Giving it to Liliya would be good; use it once in the first round, and afterwards just mindlessly heal or use Star Fall.

Anyway, Liliya won't lose anything by occupying a turn; on the contrary, the benefits of the Command Banner are far stronger than other skills.

However, Yun Mu held the Command Banner and gestured back and forth over Liliya, completely unable to find where to put the flag.

Without a fixing prop, the flag would fall off after moving just a little bit! Better wait until the next Dungeon to talk about it.

Thinking this, Yun Mu tossed the Command Banner into the space of the Divine Blood Pendant.

At the same time, the scenery around them also began to gradually return to normal.

Even the Burning Legion from the Abyss could not stop the Dwarves' advance.

With the help of Yun Mu and the others, the Dwarf general successfully led the Dwarves to break through to the front of the Abyss Portal and began to set up the magic device for spatial shielding.

"Use defensive formation!"

The Dwarf general roared, his face covered in bright red blood.

It seems that even for demons in the Abyss, the color of their blood is about the same as creatures in the main world.

And as long as they can cause damage and can bleed, it means they can be killed! "Oh oh oh!!"

The Dwarves' morale was high, guarding Yun Mu and the others tightly in the center.

And it was only until this moment that Yun Mu discovered a very serious problem.

That is... no one told them how these devices should be set up, or how to activate them!

Is this the Dwarf general's negligence?

Obviously not.

The key point of the problem here is that the Dwarf general also doesn't know how to use these devices.

After all, these devices were borrowed from the Elves, so it is normal that the Dwarves don't know how to use them.

Originally, consultants from the Elf side were supposed to teach them how to use these devices, but unfortunately.

Long before Yun Mu and the others arrived at the camp, these Elf consultants had died or mysteriously disappeared for various reasons.

One of the scholars from the Elf race even returned to the camp after being missing for several days.

As a result, it was discovered by the Lordaeron mages that it was a monster in disguise, causing quite a bit of Chaos.

This is also the reason why the scout captain was so cautious when Laidun and the others first arrived at the camp.

So the question arises, why did the consultants from the Elf race ultimately fail to reach the Abyss Portal? This certainly includes reasons such as the small number of Elves, and their greater sensitivity to magic, Ether, souls, and the like, making them more prone to going insane in such places.

But the Dwarf general felt that things were not that simple.

Although Dwarves give the impression of being careless, they are not stupid; on the contrary, they are very smart.

I'm afraid that as soon as they stepped into the range of the Portal, they were already detected by the existence behind that Portal.

Because those Elves posed a threat to the existence of the Portal, they were set as the primary target; and now that the Elf consultants have all disappeared, their only hope is the Lordaeron mages, and consultants like Yun Mu and the others who have some understanding of magic!

Intentionally ignoring the issue of activating the magic device, and not letting Yun Mu and the others touch that magic device at all in the previous few days.

It was all to avoid attracting the attention of the Portal.

After all, if the enemy acts before they do, it would be difficult to have a chance to rush to the Portal.

Now, the only problem left is.

"How on earth do you use this thing!!"

Yun Mu looked frantically at the device in front of her, which was spherical overall, wrapped in a golden shell on the outermost layer, with layers of emerald green metal stacked inside.

【Based on the Dwarves' trust in you... please activate the magic device within sixty minutes!】 A line of text suddenly popped up on the Game Panel, making Yun Mu pause for a moment.

So, not being told the activation method of the magic device wasn't an accident, but a normal Dungeon process? They have to find a way to crack the usage method of the magic device themselves? "Lucy, do you have any clues?" Yun Mu looked toward the one among the four present whom she considered the most reliable.

"Hmm." Lucy closed her eyes and gently stroked the golden shell on the top layer of the device; in her palms, the fluctuations of Alchemy brushed lightly over the interior of the device.

"Elven things can usually only be used by Elves; this device is no exception."

"I need to spend time cracking it, wait, hold on." Halfway through her sentence, Lucy suddenly remembered something and looked at Yun Mu.

"Is there a problem?" Seeing Lucy staring at her, Yun Mu tilted her head in confusion.

"Hmm."

Lucy didn't reply, just stood up and walked around Yun Mu, her gaze focused on her the whole time.

"Oh my, I'm so used to cracking things that I actually forgot." Lucy sighed.

"Although it is said that Elven devices can only be used by Elves, their method of verification is actually quite interesting."

"Don't over-explain at a time like this, just tell me the result!" Yun Mu stood up, grabbed her shoulders, and shook her back and forth, interrupting her.

"Alright, alright." Lucy raised both hands, signaling for Yun Mu to stop first.

"To make a long story short, Miss Yun just needs to use Elvish to issue commands to these devices and lift the usage restriction protocols."

"Elvish?" Yun Mu raised an eyebrow; this was something she actually knew!

There was no time to thank President Sixin in her heart for the assist; following Lucy's instructions, Yun Mu raised her right hand, injected her Spirituality into the device, and slowly spoke in Elvish:

"Declaration, initiate safety protocols, enter BIOS Mode!" (This is the meaning translated into Chinese so it can be understood.) "Lift usage restriction protocols, system reboot." 【Rebooting.】

The emerald-green device emitted a brilliant magical radiance from within, and following a clearly visible progress bar, the device was rapidly rebooting.

And after the progress bar was filled.

"Activate Space Shielding Device!" Yun Mu shouted in Elvish.

"Hum!"

Emerald-green magical radiance gushed out from the top of the device, almost instantly forming a sphere enveloped by pale green light spots.

Yun Mu was enveloped within this magical radiance and could clearly perceive that the space had become much more stable.

The Dwarf general on the outermost perimeter looked back, his face immediately showing joy.

Although he was willing to trust and take a desperate gamble by letting Yun Mu and the others attempt to activate the devices without an Elven advisor.

He truly had not expected that they would complete the activation of one so quickly.

"Move positions!" he shouted, directing the Dwarves to move toward another corner of the Portal.

The already activated device would hide itself in the folds of space, so there was no need to worry about whether it would be damaged.

They only needed to continue advancing!

And while they were shifting positions, the Lordaeron Mage could not help but speak up.

"That... although it is not very appropriate at this time, I really want to know, how exactly did you activate that device?"

When he hadn't had the slightest clue, Yun Mu and the others had already activated the device.

It was impossible for the Lordaeron Mage not to be curious.

Besides that, there was actually one other point he was quite concerned about, but he didn't dare to ask.

That was Lucy's remark, "I'm used to hacking things."

What did it mean to be used to hacking things? Could it be that this Miss Lucy had used many Elven items? And they were all in a state that required hacking? Could it be... The Lordaeron Mage thought of this, shivered, and didn't dare to continue thinking.

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just that Miss Yun's Divinity is relatively high."

Seeing the puzzled look on the Lordaeron Mage's face, Lucy laughed softly: "All Elves are birthed by the Elven Ancient Tree."

"So every Elf has some Divinity existing within them to a greater or lesser extent."

"And the magical devices made by Elves are judged for use based on Divinity."

"Demigods and True Gods have too much Divinity, which would exceed the device's search range, but Miss Yun's Divinity, while quite a bit higher than an Elf's, still has a certain gap from a Demigod."

"Naturally, she can pass the device's detection, enter the backend control system, and change its settings."

"So that's how it is..." The Lordaeron Mage nodded in realization, yet could not help but feel a bit disappointed.

After all, even if he knew this method, he didn't have the ability to use it.

As for why there was anything to be surprised about regarding Yun Mu having Divinity within her.

When he had peeked at Yun Mu's soul earlier, he had already been surprised.

"Alright, we've reached the location."

The group arrived at another corner of the Portal, intending to follow the same procedure to activate the second Space Shielding Device.

【According to the Dwarves' trust level in you... please activate the second magical device within sixty minutes!】 Huh? Is it really one hour per device?

Seeing the message that suddenly popped up on the Game Panel, Yun Mu was somewhat surprised.

She had thought it was one hour for all four devices; looking at it this way, the event was quite generous.

After all, just like when activating the first device, as long as... "Huh?"

The preceding steps were exactly the same as before, only at the final step, when the device was activating, an error occurred.

The barrier was seen flickering continuously after rising, and before long, it dissipated.

"This is..." While Yun Mu was still puzzled, Lucy had already diagnosed the problem.

"The spatial energy of the Portal is blocked by the previously sealed area, causing the energy here to be chaotic; the energy output of the device needs to be increased."

"Miss Yun..."

She began to direct Yun Mu on how to operate it.

It was still entering the device's backend, only this time it was to increase the device's output.

"Hum!!"

Before long, the device was successfully activated again, the diagonal of the Portal was sealed, and the size of the spatial gate suddenly shrank by half.

And the pressure faced by the Dwarves also became much smaller.

At the third location, the device displayed an environmental anomaly due to being stirred by the Portal's energy, but Lucy lifted the safety restrictions, forcing it to activate despite the environmental anomaly.

At the fourth location, although the pressure faced was the highest, Lucy overclocked it at the cost of accelerating the device's wear and tear, and by connecting it with the three previously stabilized areas to share the pressure, it was still successfully deployed.

【You have successfully sealed the—【Abyss Gate lv85 (Master)】!】 The Game Panel message popped up in front of Yun Mu, and as the space gradually tended toward stability, the space unfolded by that Abyss Gate shrank more and more, until it disappeared from sight.

Accompanied by the angry and unwilling Roar of the demons, the last bit of space of the Portal also disappeared completely.

...? "No, I will never allow it!"

"This kind of thing..."

A pair of hideous, massive hands reached out from the gap in the Abyss Gate and grabbed tightly onto the edge of the slowly healing fissure.

As the radiance of the Space Shielding Device flickered wildly, the spatial rift that was already about to close was actually torn open by the demons behind the gate into a five-meter-high opening! "Damned scum, don't even think about stopping us!"

The demon that tore open the rift let out a Roar, the furnace core in its chest flickering as it spewed flames outward.

At the same time, the space around Yun Mu came to a standstill at this moment.

Whether it was the demon in the distance with its ferocious expression, or the monsters that feared neither death and were surging madly toward the Portal.

Or even the Dwarf, Lucy, Brenna, and the Lordaeron mages surrounding Yun Mu, they all came to a complete standstill at this moment.

And before Yun Mu, familiar options slowly emerged.

【Shouling Quyu lv75 (Master)】

The final area has finally arrived!

Yun Mu's spirits lifted, her gaze fixed intently on the demon that had torn open the spatial rift.

This guy's strength is definitely more than a Fourth Rank Master; after all, it is a guy capable of tearing open a spatial rift with its bare hands.

But sorry, who told you that the level of this Dungeon is only Master-tier?

Thinking this, Yun Mu slowly took a step forward.

【You have encountered an enemy——【Burning Overlord Sargeras lv78 (Master)】】(End of chapter)
