Chapter 86: The White God's Mission, Tyrant's Heart
Bai Yiyuan sat casually, smiling but still exuding authority.
Years in a high position cultivate an extraordinary aura in anyone.
Ordinary people would be intimidated by Bai Yiyuan's aura.
But Lin Moyu felt nothing, acting as usual.
Bai Yiyuan didn't put on airs either, "You've been to the Dungeon Hall, right? You should know about the large dungeon called Tyrant Desert."
Lin Moyu nodded, "I know."
Bai Yiyuan said, "Your mission is to go to the Tyrant Desert dungeon and bring back the Tyrant's Heart."
That simple?
Tyrant Desert was a level 25 large dungeon for up to 40 players, with a wide level range from 20 to 30. It must have many strong monsters.
But for Lin Moyu, the more monsters the better.
With Corpse Explosion, more monsters just meant more experience.
Bai Yiyuan chuckled, "You think it's simple?"
Lin Moyu almost instinctively answered yes.
"The Tyrant's Heart isn't easy to obtain. There's a reason Tyrant Desert is called a large dungeon requiring 40 players."
"Though only level 25, it's much harder than other level 25 dungeons."
Bai Yiyuan stopped there.
Lin Moyu understood the implications.
But Bai Yiyuan couldn't know Lin Moyu was already planning to go to Tyrant Desert.
Bai Yiyuan tapped the table lightly, "I'll give you three days. Bring back the Tyrant's Heart in three days, and I'll get you a cooldown talisman."
"I understand," Lin Moyu replied softly.
Before entering the Dungeon Hall, he strongly desired a cooldown talisman.
But now that he could remove cooldowns with points in the Dungeon Hall, he didn't need it as much.
Bai Yiyuan noticed Lin Moyu's look and smiled mysteriously, "You think cooldown talismans are useless with the Dungeon Hall?"
"I can tell you, cooldown talismans are very useful, incomparable to the Dungeon Hall."
"The Dungeon Hall has many dungeons, but not the best ones, and no top-tier dungeons."
"You'll definitely encounter the best dungeons in the future, with shockingly long cooldowns."
"Some top dungeons have month-long cooldowns."
"That's when cooldown talismans become useful."
Lin Moyu asked, "But this is just a junior cooldown talisman."
Bai Yiyuan laughed, "Any high-grade cooldown talisman is upgraded from a low-grade one."
"Complete the mission and I'll not only give you a junior cooldown talisman, but also tell you how to upgrade it."
Lin Moyu hadn't expected this.
"Alright, I'll bring back the Tyrant's Heart," Lin Moyu accepted the mission.
Bai Yiyuan laughed, "In three days the university will hold an opening ceremony. All new students admitted to Summer Capital University will attend. You should come too, don't miss it."
"I understand."
When Bai Yiyuan returned, Meng Anwen was still drinking tea, seemingly admiring the distant scenery.
"How was it? Satisfied?" Meng Anwen poured Bai Yiyuan fresh tea.
Bai Yiyuan smiled, "The more I see, the more satisfied I am. This kid has a calm personality, very much to my liking."
"I told him to get the Tyrant's Heart from Tyrant Desert, gave him three days."
Oh?
Meng Anwen said, "It's not easy to gather so many people."
"This guy won't team up, he'll definitely solo it."
Soloing a large dungeon...
Meng Anwen's mouth twitched, "You did that when you were young."
Bai Yiyuan laughed, "A real man doesn't brag about past deeds."
Meng Anwen shook his head, "I remember you were level 30 when you went in, then came out in a miserable state."
Bai Yiyuan's smile vanished as he quickly drank tea to hide his embarrassment, "I said a real man doesn't brag about past deeds."
At the Dungeon Hall entrance, it was still lively.
Lin Moyu's arrival immediately attracted attention.
He was now famous.
Though not high level, he had set new records two days in a row, with outrageous results.
If he wasn't famous, who would be?
"Lin Moyu's here."
"Is he going to set new records again?"
"Wonder which dungeon he'll run?"
Lin Moyu went to the mission center in the middle of the Dungeon Hall.
He checked the missions.
He found several related to Tyrant Desert.
Rewards could be exchanged for points if obtained inside.
Suddenly he saw a mission for the Tyrant's Heart.
Someone was buying the Tyrant's Heart for 100,000 points.
This price was very high, unusually so.
For a level 25 dungeon, even a large one, could an item be worth 100,000 points?
100,000 points could almost buy platinum equipment.
Combined with Bai Yiyuan also wanting the Tyrant's Heart, Lin Moyu felt it was extraordinary.
"Junior Lin, are you going to run a dungeon?"
Looking up, he saw Shu Han smiling beside him.
Lin Moyu had some questions, "Senior, do you know about the Tyrant's Heart?"
"Of course," Shu Han replied instinctively.
Then she explained, "The Tyrant's Heart is a material dropped by the final boss of Tyrant Desert."
"Alchemists can use the Tyrant's Heart as the main material to craft a boss accessory: Tyrant's Necklace."
So it was a special material like the Goblin King's, used to make boss accessories.
Boss accessories were special, with attributes normal accessories lacked.
Like the Goblin King's Ring increasing all skills by 1 level.
For all careers.
Lin Moyu didn't know if it would be useful for him, but that didn't affect its value.
Shu Han continued, "Though the Tyrant's Necklace is good, its main material the Tyrant's Heart is too hard to obtain."
"Tyrant Desert is a large dungeon with no difficulty options. The monsters are tougher than Nightmare difficulty in same-level dungeons."
"The boss is world-class, very hard to beat."
"Even with a full level 40 team, it's time-consuming, laborious, and dangerous. You might come back empty-handed."
"The Tyrant's Heart only drops once a year. It's been two years since the last drop."
Lin Moyu thought, even if very difficult, with so many people some teams would try.
The Tyrant must have been killed many times, why hadn't anyone obtained the Tyrant's Heart?
Curiously, Lin Moyu asked, "Why?"
Shu Han giggled. Lin Moyu spoke little, but she wanted to make him talk.
This student two years younger than her seemed interesting, like her own brother.
Shu Han held up two fingers, "Two reasons. First, the fewer people in Tyrant Desert, the higher chance of dropping the Tyrant's Heart. This is counted from dungeon entry, leaving midway doesn't count."
"Second is the Tyrant boss. The faster you kill it, the higher chance of dropping the Tyrant's Heart."
Hearing this, Lin Moyu finally understood.
Given this, the 100,000 point offer for the Tyrant's Heart in the mission center was too cheap.
Not to mention Bai Yiyuan also wanted it.
Even if Bai Yiyuan didn't, Lin Moyu wouldn't sell it now that he knew its value.
A boss accessory - wouldn't it be better to use himself?
"Thank you," Lin Moyu sincerely thanked Shu Han.
Most people wouldn't explain so much.
Shu Han giggled, "You're welcome. By the way, I heard an academy is organizing people to attack Tyrant Desert these days. Junior Lin, do you want to team up with them?"
Lin Moyu shook his head, "No team. I'll solo it."
Hmm...
Shu Han covered her mouth in shock.
She had thought Lin Moyu wanted to find a team, not solo it.
She had heard of soloing normal dungeons, but never large dungeons.
It was simply impossible, never done in history.
It was absolutely impossible.
"Junior, don't do anything rash," Shu Han said with concern.
Lin Moyu chuckled and walked to the Tyrant Desert dungeon.
The large dungeon entrance vortex was much bigger than normal dungeons, very special.
Looking up, the light screen showed the record.
The record was set four years ago.
[Flying Dragon Academy, 4 hours 37 minutes 22 seconds]
Flying Dragon Academy was like Hidden Dragon Academy, one of the university's academies.
There were six such academies in the university.
Ordinary university students, independent academy students, and top academy students.
Like an unspoken rule, students were also stratified.
Earlier with Ling Zhen, ordinary and academy students almost came to blows.
Competition also existed within the university.
Shu Han asked worriedly, "Junior Lin, are you really going to solo it?"
Lin Moyu nodded.
Just as he was about to enter, an arrogant voice sounded from behind.
"Don't block the way."
