Chapter 336: Fallen Temple, Hunting the Undying Guardian!

As Zhang Yue's voice fell, the three people in front froze for a moment, feeling an awkwardness, like their little schemes had been exposed.

A moment of silence.

The short-haired assassin, Nightshade, scratched the back of his head and gave an awkward smile. "Well, since Zero God already sees through it, we won't hide it anymore!"

"You weren't the one who saved us from the professionals of the Eastern Nation before, right?" Nightshade smiled honestly and said, "To be honest, back then, we were all struck by how handsome, suave, charming, and graceful you were..."

"Stop!" Zhang Yue looked at Nightshade and said, "What exactly do you want to say?"

The long-haired warrior, Crimson Chain, pushed Nightshade aside and seriously said to Zhang Yue, "We want to join your guild, the Heavens Hall!"

In fact, their intention had already been expected by Zhang Yue.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone out of their way to inquire about Zhang Yue's whereabouts and then come to the Hell Ghost tribe to find him.

Ever since Zhang Yue became famous nationwide as the number one strongest player in the national server, many people wanted to join the Heavens Hall, from ninety-year-old grandfathers who could boast about eating five bowls of rice to three-year-olds still munching on candy while watching "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf," and even people who had their positions set by their families.

There were even many who were willing to pay money to join Zhang Yue's guild, desperately trying to step through the door to get in.

If recruitment were open, the Heavens Hall could easily have millions of members by now.

However, due to the frequent and rampant movements of people from the Eastern Nation entering Dragon Nation, Zhang Yue had temporarily stopped recruiting, fearing that individuals with ulterior motives might infiltrate the Heavens Hall.

He planned to open recruitment once he could secure Dragon Nation and deal with the Eastern Nation.

Faced with the application of the three in front of him, Zhang Yue rejected them outright: "Our guild is not recruiting at the moment."

Nightshade was unwilling to give up and started to show his value and advantages: "Zero God, I know that your guild has high standards for recruitment, and not just anyone can join."

"We three are elite-level players, and we've been in another world for over a year. Our operational skills and awareness are superior to those of ordinary people. We can definitely make a huge contribution to your guild, and we won't drag it down!"

Three elite-level players—this condition was indeed somewhat impressive.

However, Zhang Yue's attitude remained firm: "Maybe later."

After saying that, Zhang Yue directly left.

Soon, he arrived at his mission location: the Fallen Temple.

Due to the powerful force of the Undying Guardians within the Hell Dynasty, their influence was widespread and seriously hindered the Hell Demon tribe from searching for the Jade Seal.

This mission's goal was to kill 100 Undying Guardians.

Of course, don't just look at the kill count and think this mission is easy. After all, 100 Undying Guardians might seem trivial, and with a single "World Annihilation Dragon Flame" or "World Annihilation Dragon Breath," the Armageddon Black Dragon could easily take care of them.

But here, the kill had to be permanent. That means the Guardians had to be killed to the point where they couldn't resurrect. Only then would the kill count progress.

Considering that Undying Guardians have a 90% resurrection chance, permanently solving 100 of them wouldn't be that simple.

It would probably take about ten "World Annihilation Dragon Flames" and "World Annihilation Dragon Breaths" from the Armageddon Black Dragon to solve it.

As an 87-level map, the Undying Guardians in the Fallen Temple were slightly stronger than those in the previous temple.

However, in front of Zhang Yue, they were still insignificant.

He summoned his three sons and activated the plan.

Just like the previous temple.

Undying Guardians were everywhere in the Fallen Temple. Whenever any professional player entered the temple, they would immediately launch an attack.

Yet, they all avoided Zhang Yue.

For a moment, Zhang Yue wondered: Was it because he had once held the Jade Seal in his previous life, and the Undying Guardians could sense its residual aura on him, causing them to avoid him out of respect?

But the one who held the Jade Seal was Asura, not Zhang Yue.

Moreover, when Zhang Yue obtained the Jade Seal in his previous life, he didn't activate its powers, so the idea that the Undying Guardians could sense the Jade Seal's aura on him didn't hold.

Zhang Yue didn't overthink it.

Since the Undying Guardians weren't attacking him, he decided to provoke them himself.

This time, his three sons acted without Zhang Yue's direct command.

His eldest son, the Purgatory Skeleton King, used Taunt to draw a group of Undying Guardians toward them.

His second son, the 36-Winged Armageddon Black Dragon, used AOE damage to weaken the Undying Guardians.

Then, his youngest son, the Phantom Predator, with his dozen shadow minions, swooped in for the kills.

The task of hunting the Guardians was directly handled by his sons.

Zhang Yue casually wandered around the Fallen Temple.

After all, who could guarantee the Jade Seal wasn't hidden somewhere in this temple?

Since the Guardians weren't attacking him, Zhang Yue wandered the Fallen Temple as if it were his own home, searching for the Jade Seal.

Some solo players nearby, who were hunting the Undying Guardians in teams, saw the Guardians avoid Zhang Yue and surround the players instead, like hungry wolves surrounding lambs.

They were all puzzled.

"Why aren't the Undying Guardians attacking Zero?"

"I'm really curious. Do they know that Zero God is not to be messed with?"

"That's his aura. Haven't you seen how no villain in novels dares to oppose someone with that kind of aura?"

However, after Zhang Yue wandered around the Fallen Temple, he found nothing.

Naturally, this was to be expected.

After all, the Jade Seal had eluded countless people for a hundred years, so it wouldn't be that easy for Zhang Yue to find it.

When Zhang Yue returned to the starting point after his search around the temple, his sons were still dealing with the Undying Guardians.

Zhang Yue checked the mission progress and found it had just reached halfway.

It wasn't because the Armageddon Black Dragon and others were inefficient; the problem was the high resurrection rate of the Undying Guardians.

Unless something could ignore their resurrection and kill them outright.

For example: the Mark of Death.

Unfortunately, this item was only available in the Eastern Nation, not in Dragon Nation.

To finish quickly, Zhang Yue summoned his Transcendent Staff and joined the fight.

With the Armageddon Black Dragon and Phantom Predator holding the front, Zhang Yue used an SSS-level [Wutian: God-Slaying Curse] to clear the area.

He specifically targeted the low-health Guardians and, with 300w+ damage, killed them with ease, endlessly spamming [Voidless: God-Slaying Curse] to wipe them out.

Seeing the Guardians continue to resurrect after being killed, Zhang Yue became a little annoyed.

It was really a waste of time to deal with these Undying Guardians.

With all the upcoming tasks in the 15th world requiring encounters with Undying Guardians, Zhang Yue couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache.

At that moment.

A silver stream of light fell from the sky and inadvertently hit one of the Undying Guardians Zhang Yue had locked onto.

The next second, Zhang Yue's [Voidless: God-Slaying Curse] hit the Undying Guardian too.

A massive 340w damage instantly killed that Undying Guardian.

Then, instead of collapsing, the Undying Guardian's body turned into a pile of ashes and slowly scattered away.
