A perfectly good dungeon had become the place where the team opened pet eggs.

Fortunately, with Lin Chen and his team's current equipment and strength, they easily breezed through the Difficult-level dungeon.

Moreover, their clear times were always the fastest.

The same was true for the Nightmare-level dungeon.

Three more Supreme Treasure Boxes were added to their collection.

Reaching the Nightmare level rewarded them with two Supreme Treasure Boxes.

Hell level, on the other hand, gave four.

Zhang Chunlin also joined the pet egg opening team.

However, luck isn't something everyone can have.

Indeed, there were many people opening pet eggs now...

"New World" had been around for twenty years, but because the in-game item prices were too high, almost every player had been frugal during those two decades. Even wealthy players would save on items and resources whenever possible.

After all, things in the game were too valuable.

Therefore, over these twenty years, a lot of resources had been stockpiled.

Now that the servers were about to shut down, hoarding resources was pointless.

Whether it was out of nostalgia from the players or the crazy clout-chasing of those up-and-comers...

In short, in the few days since "New World" announced its closure, the rate at which various in-game resources and items were consumed almost surpassed the previous ten years!

There were indeed many people opening pet eggs at this time, and everyone was indeed pushing up the odds together.

However, Xue Mo opened one hundred and fifty Chroma Eggs and only got one Extraordinary, and it was only Epic-grade.

And Zhang Chunlin only opened fifty, got a Legendary, and then said it hurt too much.

"Damn, I'm not opening anymore. A Legendary is good enough. I wouldn't have dared to imagine this before! Forget it, the game's closing soon, why would I spend this money?" Zhang Chunlin knew when to stop.

Xue Mo and Bai Shuyi were still not convinced and had someone mail them another batch of Chroma Eggs.

It was possible to receive mail in dungeons.

Then, the two continued opening.

Anyway, they had the money.

Chroma Eggs were also very cheap now.

A bargain price; the latest market price was eighty yuan per egg.

Lin Chen had Zhang Chunlin's studio stockpile another thousand for him.

In addition, Lin Chen also had Zhang Chunlin hoard ten thousand equipment identification scrolls for him.

This could only happen in "New World."

The scale was too large.

If it were another game, how could in-game items still be sold for money after the announcement of server shutdown?

Next was the Hell difficulty "Havoc in Heaven" dungeon.

Lin Chen said, "Alright, open eggs later. It's Hell difficulty now. Forget about clear time; we might not even be able to clear it at all. Everyone, focus."

With the experience from the previous dungeons, although the difficulty was different, everyone was familiar with the strategy for this dungeon. Lin Chen selected the difficulty and led everyone into the dungeon again.

Then, there were the various storylines of the Twelve Devilish Heads. The five of them cooperated to eliminate the small monsters and push through to the dungeon Boss. But when they defeated the first Boss, something different happened.

The Twin-Headed Monster guarding the first checkpoint actually revived after being killed, and it roared, "You dare defeat my physical body? I will never let you go!"

Then, the Twin-Headed Monster fled.

It headed in the direction of the final map.

"What's going on?"

Zhang Chunlin said in shock, "Could it be that we made a mistake somewhere, so we can't kill the monster?"

"No."

Lin Chen said in a deep voice, "That was just a soul form... It seems that there's something hidden in this updated expansion pack. Will there be new gameplay unlocked after level 120?"

"After completing this dungeon, you and Yao Yao will be level 120, right? Then you'll know?" Bai Shuyi was very interested in the new gameplay, and she immediately said, "If there are any new discoveries, you must tell me immediately!"

"I won't tell you!" Liu Mengyao joked.

As expected, the following Bosses were all the same. After being defeated, they all fled in soul form, and everyone could feel that these level 120 Bosses seemed less powerful than the Giant Ape King in the level 100 dungeon.

"Is this really Nightmare-level? It feels... a bit easy!"

Xue Mo couldn't help but doubt.

The five of them had been in the dungeon for about an hour now.

But on average, they had defeated a Boss in about five minutes, and they were almost at the final Giant Ape King.

"Whatever, let's just clear it!"

Lin Chen took the lead and stepped into the map where the Giant Ape King was located.

The team was all in position.

At this time, the storyline appeared.

On the huge central throne, the Giant Ape King sat high above, and in front of it were the souls of the eleven Bosses, who were complaining to the Giant Ape King.

"Giant Ape King, you must avenge us!"

"We were all doing it for you, and our physical bodies were destroyed!"

"Fortunately, we all cultivated soul forms, or we would have been completely finished!"

"We are very weak now..."

"At least, it will take a month to recover!"

"Now that you've conquered the Heavenly Palace and taken the throne, shouldn't you avenge us?"

"Rewards?"

The Giant Ape King seemed a little deaf. It misheard "avenge" as "rewards"...

Then, the Giant Ape King went berserk!

It roared, its eyes, bigger than lanterns, glowed green, and then it opened its mouth and sucked hard.

"Giant Ape King, you!"

"Don't!"

"You... do you want to devour our souls?"

"No!"

"..."

In the storyline, wails rose all around.

Soon, the Giant Ape King cruelly devoured the souls one by one, and every time it devoured one, its health increased a lot. In the end, the Giant Ape King's health reached a full three million!

"Haha, souls... this is a great tonic!"

The Giant Ape King roared triumphantly, "I feel like I'm full of power now!"

...

The storyline was about to end.

But at this time, Zhang Chunlin swallowed hard and couldn't help but say, "So... so powerful. I feel like it could kill me with one punch... Are we really going to fight this big guy?"

At this time, the Giant Ape King was nearly a hundred meters tall.

Like King Kong from the movies!

"We've come this far, how can we not fight?"

Without saying a word, Bai Shuyi picked up the spear in her hand and said, "I'll go first and give it a strengthened charge. Knights, remember to follow up and pull aggro!"

"Let's do it!"

Lin Chen also spoke.

However, Lin Chen at this time looked at the five giant thrones around the map.

He rushed over to one at an extremely fast speed.

Roar!

Over there, the battle had already begun.

Everyone was releasing their skills.

But just a few seconds later, everyone saw that Zhang Chunlin's health bar, which had hundreds of thousands of HP, suddenly lost half, and Zhang Chunlin's voice came soon after, "Damn, it knocked off fifty thousand HP in one hit! How can anyone withstand this!"

Too terrifying!

With Zhang Chunlin's knight defense, coupled with equipment damage reduction, the damage caused by the Giant Ape King was so terrifying. It was indeed impossible to withstand.

This wasn't a problem with Zhang Chunlin's equipment.

"It seems that its damage ignores defense; only damage reduction is useful."

Lin Chen immediately began to command, "Yao Yao, give Zhang Chunlin Divine Light Blessing, time the skill cooldowns well, and give him Holy Shield. Use the two skills alternately as much as possible. Then, you all fight and retreat, and each of you find a throne to stand on."

"What for? To indulge in the addiction of being a god?"

Bai Shuyi didn't know about this dungeon's bug, and she thought Lin Chen was just messing around!

This was normal.

After all, the dungeons in "New World" had never had these fancy things before. They were all cleared with pure strength, but Bai Shuyi still listened and found a throne.

Zhang Chunlin braced himself and found a throne to stand on.

All five of them were in position.

At this time, Lin Chen continued to command, "Chunlin, don't pull aggro. From now on, you're not allowed to use a single taunt, and no one is allowed to use their pets! Then, we all stand on the highest point of the throne and release skills at the Boss. Remember, only release output skills! Yao Yao, don't use any healing or shields. Just use Holy Light Baptism to hit it. All melee pets stand by and don't leave the top of the throne!"

Although they didn't understand what Lin Chen meant, everyone did as he said.

Then, everyone discovered that the previously invincible Giant Ape King seemed to have suddenly lost its target. It didn't know who to hit and was running back and forth between the five giant thrones...

Its huge body had now become a giant target.

Facing such a large target, even if you had cerebral palsy, you could still hit it with your skills.

"What the hell is going on?" Zhang Chunlin was stunned.

"It seems to be a bug?"

"Lin Chen, how did you know about this bug!"

Xue Mo and Bai Shuyi curiously looked at Lin Chen.

"You guys just know how to open pet eggs. Actually, I tried it during the last dungeon. The Boss Giant Ape King in the new dungeon doesn't seem to be able to see targets on the thrones."

Lin Chen casually made up an excuse.

With the help of the bug, the Giant Ape King, who had three million health, was killed by Lin Chen and his team.

Then, an announcement immediately sounded in the game.

[Congratulations to the team of Lin Zhong Chen Xi for successfully defeating the Giant Ape King (Hell level), protecting the Heavenly Palace. To commend their achievements, the gods have specially bestowed upon each of them two Supreme Gift Boxes. In addition, the team is rewarded with two rare class treasure boxes!]

[Announcement, due to the defeat of the Giant Ape King (Hell level), the reputation system is now open!]

[Announcement, the Havoc in Heaven has ended. To thank the brave adventurers, the gods have bestowed upon everyone the method of soul cultivation. Please level up to 120 to see the details!]

[...]

Several announcements in a row caused the world channel, which had originally become a trading market, to explode.

"rnm New World, you're about to shut down, and you're saying you're opening the reputation system and new gameplay?"

"Go play it with your mom, you dog planners!"

"What the hell, there are still people going to dungeons now?"

"Lin Zhong Chen Xi, it's him again? You can't have bad equipment if you want to clear the level 120 Hell dungeon, right? And it seems like he got two more Epic-grade pets?"

"Hehe, Lin Zhong Chen Xi is from our school. I heard that he mortgaged his house to play this game and borrowed several million..."

"He has cerebral palsy, right? The game's about to shut down, and he's still spending so much money?"

"..."

Lin Chen didn't expect that he would still become famous in the end.
