Chapter 134: The Arrogant Fire God Fighter, From the Ancient Roman Church

He had previously had an unpleasant experience of being attacked right after exiting an instance, which made Jiang Chen instantly raise his vigilance considerably.

But just as the Instance Doorway had just returned to calm, what is happening now?

Why does trouble always arise every time one leaves an instance.

A large hand reached out, trying to push Jiang Chen away.

However, white light flickered, and Jiang Chen's Bone Armor blocked the push; Jiang Chen remained motionless.

His vision returned to normal.

At some point, a red carpet appeared on the ground.

The red carpet stretched all the way to the Entrance of the instance.

At the end of the carpet stood a resplendent, golden‑and‑emerald luxury carriage.

The horse pulling the carriage was not an ordinary horse, but a Flame Warhorse.

Flame Warhorse's hooves burned with flame year‑round, never extinguishing even in Ice Heaven Snow Earth or water.

Flame Warhorse was originally a monster, later tamed by a beastmaster, improved and bred, eventually becoming a mount for humans.

In Western lands, Flame Warhorse is relatively popular.

But in the Shenlong Empire, fewer people ride Flame Warhorse.

And those qualified to ride Flame Warhorse are also few.

Let alone having Flame Warhorse pull a carriage.

From this, one can see the opponent's identity is far from ordinary.

The red carpet extended from the carriage to the instance Entrance, thick and soft.

When the hooves of the Flame Warhorse sounded, ten professionals rode on horses, standing majestically on both sides of the red carpet.

Jiang Chen and Lin Caier had just exited the instance and happened to be on the red carpet.

The man, seeing he could not push Jiang Chen, paled slightly, exerted force again, yet still could not move Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen's Bone Armor cannot even be cut by a Hell‑level Outpost Guardian; how could a Level 30 professional possibly shake him?

Earlier, a Level 36 Abyssal Dog Demon wielding a Wolf Fang Club struck for ages without any effect.

He could not push Jiang Chen, then reached out to try to push Lin Caier, angrily ordering, "Move aside quickly, don't dirty the prince's red carpet!"

Jiang Chen's expression darkened slightly, for the other bore a Western face, clearly not a person of the Shenlong Empire.

A Skeleton Warrior instantly appeared beside Jiang Chen, and without a word swung a great blade at the opponent, demanding him to move, seeing who would make whom move.

The man's face changed dramatically, and he hurriedly retreated.

The Skeleton Warrior's great blade nearly struck him; the blade finally hit the ground, Boom—, and a long stretch of red carpet was blown to fragments.

"Audacious!"

The Knights on both sides of the red carpet instantly drew their weapons, their momentum fierce as they aimed at Jiang Chen.

In that instant, more auras rose, enveloping the entire arena.

The Shenlong Empire professionals around them rose one by one, ready to strike at any moment.

Here, if one wishes to deal with people of the Shenlong Empire, one must first obtain the consent of the Shenlong Empire professionals.

Lin Caier whispered to Jiang Chen, "They are probably from the Ancient Roman Church; be careful."

Jiang Chen nodded, "I understand."

Unlike the Shenlong Empire, the greatest power in Western lands is not a nation but a church.

The Ancient Roman Church is one such, its strength even surpassing small nations like Shadow Transformation Nation.

"All cease!"

A low shout rang from the carriage.

The Flame Knights instantly restrained their momentum.

A young man in armor stepped out of the carriage onto the red carpet.

His armor was luxurious and exquisite, golden light constantly flickering, with faint flames still dancing on it.

Lin

Cai Er blinked her big eyes, "It's not ordinary golden gear; it's golden gear forged by a blacksmith."

"His accessories are also made by an alchemist, not those dropped from instances; I think these pieces share the same style, possibly a set, a handcrafted set."

A fully handcrafted golden set is considerably more valuable than top‑tier golden gear.

Its attribute bonuses are naturally stronger as well.

It may still be inferior to the Hell Sentinel set, but it will certainly surpass the Nightmare golden set.

The young man whispered, "How can you be so rude? Step back."

The rebuked professional immediately moved aside, standing respectfully without a word.

This young man is the "prince" spoken of by the other side, of distinguished status.

He is clearly full of arrogance; although his wording is very polite, there is no genuine intent to apologize.

"I apologize to you for my subordinate's rudeness."

Even with courteous wording, the arrogance remains evident.

He introduced himself, "I am Luoji, from the Ancient Roman Church, a Level 31 Fire God Fighter."

He proclaimed his origin and profession, brimming with pride and arrogance.

His profession also caused many nearby people to exclaim; they clearly know the Fire God Fighter.

There were also several who did not know this profession.

"So it's a Fire God Fighter of the Ancient Roman Church."

Is the Fire God Fighter that great?

The Ancient Roman Church worships deities; they have some special professionals who claim to have inherited divine might, and the Fire God Fighter is said to have inherited the power of the Fire God.

Sounds pretty powerful.

In fact, it truly is quite formidable, belonging to a Mythic-level profession.

What dog

A damn Fire God Fighter is just a fighter with a fire attribute talent, nothing that mystical.

Whether or not they truly inherited the Fire God's power, even a fighter with just a fire attribute talent is already impressive.

Otherwise it couldn't be rated as a Mythic-level profession.

Jiang Chen looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Jiang Chen, Shenlong Empire, Level 24, Necromancer Summoner."

Luoji didn't seem to care about Jiang Chen's reply, and might not have even heard it clearly.

Luoji stretched out a hand toward Lin Caier, "Beautiful miss, might I have the honor of inviting you to run an instance together?"

A hint of disgust flashed in Lin Caier's eyes; she somewhat dislikes Luoji.

She feels that beneath Luoji's refined demeanor lies hypocrisy.

Lin Caier trusts her own feeling, having believed it since childhood.

When she first met Jiang Chen, Lin Caier sensed his simplicity and sincerity.

So she was willing to befriend Jiang Chen.

Lin Caier's gaze was fully captured by Jiang Chen, who said bluntly, "No need, you don't have the qualification."

Luoji froze on the spot, his expression slightly twisted, yet he tried to maintain his composure: "I should have more qualification than you."

Jiang Chen shook his head: "That's just what you think."

"Haha!" Luoji chuckled, "You're only Level 24; limited perspective is normal."

"Do you know which instance I intend to run?"

"I will Solo Run the Hell Difficulty Outpost Dungeon to obtain that legendary title, beautiful miss. Once I succeed in soloing the Hell Difficulty instance and earn the title, I will invite you."

Lin Caier's wide eyes lit up, staring at him as if at an idiot, and she pointed at his head: "Is something wrong with you here?"

Haha!

Many Shenlong Empire professionals around burst into laughter.

Lin Caier said that Luoji's head seemed a bit off.

Luoji's head flashed red, then white.

But to keep his composure, he couldn't lose his temper at Lin Caier.

Though already angry, he still had to endure.

He endured with great difficulty, his fists turning red from clenching.

Jiang Chen gave him a strange look: "You can't obtain the title."

After speaking, he exchanged a glance with Lin Caier.

A Cooldown Talisman flickered faintly as the two entered the instance again.

Luoji suddenly covered his forehead and burst into laughter: "To say that I can't claim the title—if I can't claim it, then who could?"

His voice carried unparalleled arrogance.

Previously, Yi Ning seemed sufficiently arrogant; now compared to him, Yi Ning must concede defeat.

Luoji is not only arrogant but also flamboyant.

A Flame Warhorse pulled the carriage, with a professional team in tow, laying out a red carpet.

All actions were highly ostentatious.

He did it on purpose, deliberately to let foreign professionals see how he completes a Solo Run Hell Difficulty Outpost Dungeon and claims the legendary unattainable title.

Amid his laughter, he looked around, wanting to see others' reactions.

Instead, he saw face after face mocking him.

The situation, it seems, is a bit off.

"Go find out what's going on,"

Luoji's flamboyance is intentional; his mind isn't truly ill.

By now, he realizes there might actually be a problem.

Soon his subordinates reported the outcome.

The title has already been taken.

Someone has already accomplished the Solo Run Hell-level Outpost Dungeon feat before him.

And that person is the Level 24 Necromancer Summoner who just entered.

Luoji was stunned.

Brain

The bag buzzed, and for a moment he couldn't recover...
