Chapter 274: Is this a soul?

Evelyn said earnestly.

At this point, the barrage of comments once again erupted.

"Holy crap!"

"Pistols and grenades against a Tyrant, are you serious?"

"And they're all new Adventurers."

"To deal with these new Adventurers, a Licker could wipe them out, why would a Tyrant need to step in?"

"What kind of hellish difficulty is this?"

Looking at the barrage of comments, the Adventurers from Feiyun Town grew nervous again.

They realized that this Tyrant must be an incredibly powerful monster, and the Dungeon they were currently playing was a difficult mode of some series.

This immediately ignited their desire for a challenge.

"It sounds really difficult, but this Dungeon seems very interesting."

"Interesting, I'm suddenly hyped up."

"Is this Tyrant really that hard to defeat? If it's as the comments say, we're no match at all!"

Some Adventurers also said worriedly.

However, whether the Tyrant was hard to defeat or not, the comments didn't count.

They would only know after experiencing it themselves.

After getting slightly familiar with the weapons in their hands, the Adventurers followed behind Evelyn, step by step, heading outside.

They didn't think about why the Tyrant was outside while Evelyn could safely enter.

Nor did they think about why Evelyn could easily open the enormous door in front of them.

They simply assumed it was a convenience brought by her NPC status.

After enduring the elements, the manor's main gate had become somewhat rusty, with some strange mold on it.

When pushed open, it let out a creaking sound.

Outside.

It was an even more desolate ruin.

An incredibly strong scent of decay, mixed with rust, dust, and an indescribably sweet, fishy smell, suddenly poured in through the door, making the Adventurers instinctively hold their breath.

Evelyn gracefully stepped aside, clearing the doorway.

A faint smile still hung on her face, as if outside the door was just an ordinary street.

Outside the door, the world seemed to have been muted.

Even the wind had solidified.

Dazzling sunlight fell on the broken walls and ruins, making people's eyes sting.

A few hundred meters away.

In the center of a dead silent ruin, a figure stood.

The Tyrant!

He walked over, carrying a rocket launcher and a Gatling gun.

No words were needed upon meeting.

The Tyrant had always been a polite zombie, good manners were essential.

Before the Adventurers from Feiyun Town could clearly see the Tyrant's appearance, four rockets with fiery tails flew over.

Boom!

As the 100 Adventurers stepped out of the manor, the roar of the rockets exploded before their eyes.

Shattered stones and broken limbs flew everywhere, and the Adventurers in the front instantly turned to ashes, disappearing from their original spots, clearly dead.

It was an instant kill upon meeting.

The Adventurers who narrowly dodged the rocket bombardment tried to shoot, but the roar of the Gatling gun had already torn through the deadly silence.

A storm of metal swept through, precise and cruel.

It shredded him along with another Adventurer behind cover, leaving only a scorched area of bullet holes on the ground.

100 people, wiped out.

"......"

The Adventurers from Tidal Town, watching from outside, fell silent.

"As expected, it's like bullying new players."

"This is the Tyrant. Even now, with a lot of pay-to-win equipment, when I encounter the Tyrant in normal mode, I can't help but tremble, let alone these new Adventurers from Feiyun Town."

"Will this be too difficult this time, scaring off these guys from Feiyun Town?"

"It is a bit difficult."

"It's like teaching them to walk and then making them face an adult; how could they possibly win?"

"One-shot kill, nothing left to see."

The Adventurers from Tidal Town sighed a little, these guys from Feiyun Town had only been in for a few minutes, and it was already over, faster than doing anything else.

Just like this......

How could that be satisfying?

But if these guys weren't satisfied, then this 'Dungeon Duel' would be a bit iffy, wouldn't it? After all, who would like a Dungeon where you die in a few minutes? This isn't for fun; it's purely for masochism.

"It shouldn't be, this isn't Lord Chen's style."

"Yeah."

"Every Dungeon Lord Chen creates is very rich in content; how could he just rush it?"

The Adventurers from Tidal Town still firmly believed this.

At this moment.

Someone noticed something.

"Look......"

"These guys from Feiyun Town didn't exit after dying; most of their perspectives returned to inside the manor."

"Oh?"

Upon observation, it was indeed so.

Most of the Adventurers from Feiyun Town revived inside the manor in the end.

"So that's it......"

"This is a Soul-type Dungeon, creating high-difficulty instances by stacking boss stats, and then giving the Adventurers from Feiyun a certain number of chances to clear it, allowing them to repeatedly challenge and defeat the boss."

"Has Lord Chen finally gone for high difficulty?"

The difficulty of the Tyrant.

The Adventurers from Tidal Town had already experienced it in normal mode. Although they didn't know if it had been weakened here, no matter how much it was weakened, it was still the Tyrant, the ultimate boss in normal mode.

"However, it's still somewhat different from conventional Soul-type Dungeons. Conventional Soul-type Dungeons are single-player challenges, but this one is a hundred-person scale."

"This is equivalent to playing a raid, and at this point, teamwork is very important."

After the analysis by the Adventurers from Tidal Town.

The Adventurers from Feiyun Town also roughly understood the type of this Dungeon, and their brows furrowed slightly after reviving.

Soul-type Dungeon......

To be honest, most Adventurers didn't like them.

They were here to make a living.

To find happiness.

Most of the time in Soul-type Dungeons was spent getting beaten, or on the way to getting beaten.

If you really had to say when it was satisfying......

It was only at the moment of defeating the boss; that was the most satisfying moment.

However, here's the problem.

Most Adventurers' skills couldn't sustain them until that point. Without the support of strategy guides from a strategy team, Soul-type Dungeons were very difficult for Adventurers to crack.

Most ordinary Adventurers belonged to the beaten side and simply couldn't enjoy the thrill of killing the boss.

Sometimes, even with a strategy guide, they couldn't even pass the first sub-boss, as the difficulty was simply too great.

Therefore.

Upon hearing 'Soul-type Dungeon,' the Adventurers from Feiyun Town couldn't help but sigh.

Of course, Soul-type Dungeons weren't necessarily bad.

There were actually many Soul-type Dungeons on the market; it was a relatively common genre.

But Soul-type Dungeons require a lot of time to master the various operations within them, which is a recognized fact and a very time-consuming process. If it were in their own area.

It would be fine.

If they couldn't beat it, they could just wait for the strategy team to release a guide, and then try again.

If they still couldn't beat it, they could wait until next time.

Accumulate experience, and there would always be a day when they beat it.

And there would always be moments when they enjoyed a large secretion of dopamine.

But now, it clearly wasn't......

Most of the people here were ordinary Adventurers. Making them immediately play a very unfamiliar Soul-type Dungeon would only make them feel overwhelmed.

However, luckily, they were working as a team, and with teammates, the feeling was different again.
