Chapter 307: The Dragon Race's Millennial Conspiracy, Jiang Chen Cooperates to Bomb It

~8 min read 1,593 words

Yi Qianfan stands at the Data Library entrance, drawing everyone's attention.

He rarely appears at the Academy, so his sudden appearance must mean something important.

"Mo Director seems to be waiting for someone."

"Throughout the entire Academy, who else could make Mo Director wait? Whoever Mo Director is looking for, it's just a matter of a single sentence."

"Why don't you see who Mo Director is looking for?"

The trainees saw Jiang Chen walking out of the Data Library.

After a month of settling, Jiang Chen's aura became steady, no longer sharp and murderous as when he returned from the battlefield.

"No wonder, only Jiang Chen could make the Director himself come in person across the whole Academy."

"Who is Jiang Chen? He's a Divine General, on the military level equal to the Director."

"I don't know what the Director wants from Jiang Chen, but his expression seems rather solemn."

"Can he not be solemn? The Dragon Race is going mad over at the Alien Battlefield, and we've already had several clashes with us Human Race, reportedly many have died. Maybe soon we'll all have to go to the battlefield."

The group discussed animatedly.

In the past month, the Dragon Race's frantic behavior has caused considerable unrest, leading to continuous human‑dragon conflicts.

This worries many people.

Jiang Chen approached Yi Qianfan and addressed him in a military manner: "Divine General Yi, what do you need me for?"

Yi Qianfan smiled and replied: "This time I'm here to ask Divine General Jiang for a favor."

"Personal matter or official business?" Jiang Chen asked.

Yi Qianfan nodded: "Official business."

"Please speak."

"It's a bit complicated, let's talk as we walk." Yi Qianfan walked to the side, and the two walked side by side.

Yi Qianfan said lightly, "Recently, Fortress No. 1's…

…nearby 'Dragon Tribe Outpost Dungeon' instance has some issues. Since the Dragon Race returned to the Alien Battlefield, that instance has undergone a mutation."

Jiang Chen's eyebrows twitched slightly; he's very familiar with this instance, but doesn't know what mutation occurred.

He asked nothing, quietly waiting for Yi Qianfan to speak.

Yi Qianfan continued, "'Dragon Tribe Outpost Dungeon' was created a thousand years ago, and can be seen as a Dragon Race relic left from that great war."

"There are many similar Dragon Race instance relics, of varying levels, almost everywhere across the corners of the Alien Battlefield."

"At that time we didn't pay attention, thinking it might just be residual Dragon Race power."

"Unexpectedly, this time the Dragon Race returned, and all these instances mutated, becoming the Dragon Race's teleportation bases."

"The Dragon Clan Army can use the instances to directly reach any corner of the Alien Battlefield."

"We only just discovered that these instances were deliberately left by the Dragon Race's ancient king."

"Even with the Dragon Race's return, these instances have played a significant role."

Jiang Chen had a bad premonition, "Are the casualties severe?"

Yi Qianfan said, "Fortunately, over a thousand people died."

Over a thousand dead is not a small number.

Professionals aren't afraid of injuries; even severed limbs don't scare them, any wound can be healed.

Only death cannot be revived.

Unless one also, like him, plants a Soul Mark.

Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with a sharp light, murderous intent rising slightly, "Why not destroy the instance."

He knows a Divine-level Strongman has the full ability to destroy the instance.

For them, this shouldn't be difficult.

Yi Qianfan said, "By the time we realized, we were already a step too late."

"The Dragon Race reinforced the instance using special methods…

…only by destroying them from within the instance can they be eliminated."

Jiang Chen didn't ask why, and bluntly said, "What do you need me to do?"

Yi Qianfan said, "Enter the Dragon Tribe Outpost Dungeon, clear Hell Difficulty. Compatibility with the military team, together destroy it."

Jiang Chen looked puzzled, "But my level…"

Yi Qianfan explained, "The instance mutated, difficulty increased, level has changed from Level 25 to th Level, and entry conditions have changed accordingly."

"'Hell Outpost' instance was previously just a Level 25 instance."

After mutation, it upgraded to a th Level instance, and all restriction conditions and difficulties changed.

Only professionals of Level 33 to Level 37 may enter.

Normal Difficulty changed from three players to solo.

Nightmare Difficulty reduced to three players.

Hell Difficulty was limited to five players.

Moreover, each difficulty only allows one team to enter simultaneously.

At this point, the instance has completely lost its original form.

It has become a Dragon Race teleportation point.

Normal and Nightmare are still manageable.

But tackling Hell Difficulty with five people is extremely hard.

Yi Qianfan said, "Now, to destroy the instance, we need to clear Normal, Nightmare, and Hell difficulties simultaneously."

"When the three instances are cleared together, the three Dungeon Exits appear simultaneously, then use a special scroll to trigger them all at once."

This way we can completely destroy the Instance.

Jiang Chen asked, "I think, with the military's strength, finding five appropriately leveled Mythic-level Profession isn't that we can't beat Hell Difficulty."

Hell Difficulty is indeed tough, but as long as we're careful we can always get through.

Yi Qianfan let out a light sigh, "It was originally doable, but the Dragon Race intervened."

Their army's deployment turns the Instance into Hell Difficulty…

The "Dragon Tribe Outpost" Instance was originally a hook they left; they have the ability to interfere to some extent.

Jiang Chen looked at Yi Qianfan, his eyes flashing, "So, the military failed?"

Yi Qianfan nodded, "Not only did they fail, but they also paid a heavy price. Two Mythic-level Profession died inside the Instance."

Losing two Mythic-level Profession is indeed a considerable loss.

The "Hell Outpost" Instance is too close to Fortress No. 1.

Fortress No. 1 is basically filled with Below Level 40 low-level professionals; among the Nine Fortresses, its defense is the weakest.

If the Dragon Race teleports a Legion from the "Dragon Tribe Outpost," it could cause massive damage to Fortress No. 1.

Jiang Chen didn't hesitate, "Then let's go."

Yi Qianfan asked, "Do we need any preparations?"

Jiang Chen shook his head, "No need; it's just a th Level Instance, not hard at all."

The Instance's restrictions always exist; the rules won't change.

Even if the Dragon Race can dispatch troops into the Instance, they must still abide by its restrictions.

The Dragon Race soldiers inside won't exceed Level 37.

Not to mention Level 37; even a Level 47 army couldn't stop Jiang Chen.

Fortress No. 1 is shrouded by the gloom of war.

The walls, damaged in the Dragon Race's assault a month ago, have had the major damage repaired, yet some spots still show dried blood.

Jiang Chen and Yi Qianfan left Fortress No. 1, heading toward the "Dragon Tribe Outpost" Instance.

Along the way they encountered some small monsters, all dealt with casually by Yi Qianfan.

Yi Qianfan is a Level 89 Saint Spirit Grand Summoner, just like Yi Ning.

the same profession.

He underwent a Profession Ascension at Second Transcendence, but failed to experience a second one at Third Transcendence.

He is a Mid Mythic-level Profession.

Jiang Chen couldn't quite understand his attack methods.

He didn't summon the corresponding Summoned Beast; instead, with a casual tap, he shot a Fine Light, and the monster vanished into ash.

A Summoner's combat power resides entirely in their Summoned Beast; clearly this doesn't apply to Yi Qianfan.

Even if Yi Qianfan's Summoning Technique is sealed, he can still wield terrifying combat power.

Jiang Chen recalled Hong Jishi's words: Sealed Summoning Technique is useless for a Summoner after Third Transcendence.

But Hong Jishi didn't elaborate; clearly it's not the time yet.

So Jiang Chen just watched, asking nothing further.

As they drew nearer to the Instance, Jiang Chen saw a Legion.

A Legion was stationed at the Dungeon Exit, keeping a firm watch on the Instance.

Both wore purple Divine General Badges on their shoulders; no one dared to block them along the way.

All soldiers greeted the two with reverent gazes.

The legion's leader, named Lin Guodong, is a Three-Star Colonel and a Level 70 Third Transcendence Holy Sword Knight.

He had received advance notice of Yi Qianfan and Jiang Chen's arrival, prepared and waiting for them.

He bowed respectfully toward Yi Qianfan and Jiang Chen, showing no hint of disdain due to Jiang Chen's level.

He led Yi Qianfan and Jiang Chen to the Instance Entrance.

Jiang Chen noticed a slight change at the Instance Entrance.

A Dragon Race aura emanated from within the Instance, indicating their presence inside.

Not monsters, but genuine Dragon Race.

Lin Guodong said, "About twenty days ago, a Dragon Race army suddenly burst out of the Instance."

"At that time, there were still many professionals outside the Instance"

"who were caught off guard by the Dragon Race army, resulting in many casualties."

"This army pursued low-level professionals around the fortresses until we arrived."

"Later we surrounded the Instance."

"Later the Dragon Race army appeared again and we slaughtered them on the spot."

Jiang Chen asked, "Specifically, how should I cooperate with you?"

Lin Guodong gestured, and the three pre‑prepared squads stepped forward.

They were groups of one, three, and four respectively.

Lin Guodong said, "Our military will send four people to team up with Divine General Lin to tackle Hell Difficulty."

"Additionally, for Normal Difficulty and Nightmare Difficulty, we have prepared corresponding teams."

"After clearing the Instance, we will use the Chain Scroll to detonate the exit and completely destroy the Instance."

Speaking, Lin Guodong produced three pre‑prepared Chain Scrolls.
