BXBX NOVEL Chapter 89 - Dungeon Mission Completed!
Chapter 89: Dungeon Mission Completed!
City Lord Noel was so excited that tears started rolling down on his cheeks.
“City Lord, do you know the origin of this key?”
Li Yi asked straightforwardly.
City Lord Noel heard Li Yi’s question and noticed that he had lost his composure. He looked around and immediately cleared his throat and calmed down.
“Well, Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, if I’m not mistaken, this key should be the Key of Remembrance that Emperor City lost 300 years ago! It should be the Key of Remembrance that Emperor City lost 300 years ago!”
Noel’s eyes burned with passion as he spoke.
“Key of Remembrance?” Li Yi asked yet again to reconfirm what he had just heard.
“Yes, please wait right here.”
Noel turned around and started to quickly search for something. Half a minute later, he returned to the three of them with a dusty book that looked frail.
Since there was only one chair in the office, Noel was very smart. He did not directly invite them to take a seat. Instead, he chose to stand with Li Yi and the others.
Noel opened to page 201 of the book and pointed at a portion of the contents.
“Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, look here. This book is the manuscript of the past City Lords.
“According to the records, three hundred years ago, there was a supposed training ground in Emperor City called the Hall of Remembrance. This hall nurtured countless talents for the Ghana Empire back then.
“However, a war broke out later on. In order to prevent the training ground from being destroyed, the Queen of the Ghana Empire sent someone to seal off the entrance of the Hall of Remembrance. She then asked the loyal officials to stash the Key of Remembrance somewhere safe.”
Li Yi raised his brows. “Does this mean that this key can open the Hall of Remembrance that nurtured many talents?”
Having heard this story before, Li Yi had already guessed it. After all, in his previous life, the level 20 Hall of Remembrance was actually a level 20 dungeon for players.
“Yes!”
Noel nodded excitedly.
“Now that the great battle is about to begin, it could be used to prepare the players for the upcoming battle!
“Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, I would like to ask you for a favor. Can you bring this key to the east side of Emperor City and unlock the entrance of the Hall of Remembrance?”
Noel pleaded.
At this moment, the system’s voice sounded.
[System Notification: Fourth round mission. Please take the Key of Remembrance to the target location and unlock the seal of the Hall of Remembrance!]
The three of them looked at each other, then Li Yi nodded and said, “City Lord, please rest assured and leave it to me. I promise I won’t let you down.”
Hearing Li Yi’s words, Noel was overjoyed.
“Thank you so much, sir. If I had the time, I would have definitely accompanied you.
“But for now, I have no choice but to trouble you and your companions. After you break the seal, I will definitely reward you handsomely!”
Noel promised Li Yi and the other two.
“Then please wait for our return, City Lord Noel.”
Li Yi said this.
Satisfied, Noel nodded and looked at Li Yi with even more admiration.
The two of them did not chat much, and Li Yi immediately left the City Lord’s mansion with Clutch King and Snow Chaser.
…
“I was just having a dream when the mission guide appeared.”
The moment Snow Chaser left the City Lord’s mansion, she very cleverly immediately opened the system map.
As expected, there was a tracking mark on the system map.
“Nice, there’s no time to lose. Let’s finish the mission and level up as soon as possible!”
With that said, Li Yi followed the mission guide forward.
Clutch King and Snow Chaser followed closely behind.
…
The group passed through many streets and residential buildings. Finally, they arrived at the location of the mission guide. In front of them was a huge and magnificent hall, but it was tightly bound by thick chains.
In the middle of those chains was a rusty copper lock. Although this copper lock looked old, the three of them could feel its magic aura.
“It’s actually a magic array seal.”
As a Healing Mage, Snow Chaser could tell at one glance.
“This magic array is quite strong. Without a key, if you forcefully break the array, it will cause damage to the items sealed in the array.”
Li Yi, who had memories from his previous life, was very experienced with magic arrays.
“I knew it! No wonder the Ghana Empire couldn’t forcefully break the seal. It’s because they’re afraid of damaging what’s inside this hall!”
Clutch King suddenly spoke up after a moment of pause. After hearing what the City Lord had said, he had been puzzled. Why did the Ghana Empire not just break it by force? Now his questions have been answered.
Li Yi smiled as he took out the key from his backpack and strode forward to the front of the hall.
He looked at the copper lock in the middle of the chain and inserted the key.
The moment the copper lock was opened, the chains that bounded the hall started to vibrate. One thick chain after another slowly fell apart!
The vibrations from the chains spread to the ground!
The loud vibration woke up the citizens who had fallen asleep. Countless people walked out of the door to check what had happened.
…
Emperor City’s military camp.
“Okay, I got it. I’ll leave this to you.”
After Mannico finished his task, he picked up another document. There were two big red words engraved on the document. When he was about to read it, a loud boom echoed throughout the forest.
“Huh?”
Then, he seemed to have sensed something and stood up in disbelief. He opened the window of his office and looked in the direction of Emperor City.
“Someone actually broke the seal of the Hall of Remembrance!”
Manicco muttered.
The hall was a training ground used by the country to nurture talents. After it was sealed, since they could not find a way to break it, they could not forcefully break the seal for fear of breaking what was inside.
Therefore, the previous queen ordered the knights to abandon the hall.
“We have to report this to Her Majesty the Queen!”
Manicco walked out of the office excitedly. However, before he took a few steps, his expression became strange. If even he could hear such a huge commotion from here, he believed that the palace could hear it as well. It seemed like he had done too much in the past…
However, after thinking about it, Manicco still decided to make a trip to save His Majesty from saying any other negative things about him.
…
The night owl players who were still in Emperor City at night were shocked by the loud noise.
They all quickly went to the forum to share their worries.
[What’s going on?! What’s that loud noise? Did an explosion happen over there?]
[The explosion is a small matter. I’m guessing that the enemy faction has attacked us?]
[Commentor above, you don’t have to worry about that. I just finished reading the Divine Revelation announcement. There aren’t any enemy factions against Emperor City yet!]
[That’s odd, then what the h*ll was that loud noise? The entire city heard it!]
[Bro, it’s not just your city. I’m staying up all night in the suburbs to level up. I could even hear it from here. I was so scared that I thought there was an earthquake and I might die here.]
[I’m from Elm City and I even heard it!]
[Same goes for Rock City!]
Right when all the players were wondering what was going on, a system announcement came!
[System Notification: Congratulations to [redacted] players, for completing the level 20 dungeon chain quest and officially opening the level 20 Dungeon Hall of Remembrance!]
And at that moment, countless players who had gone offline to sleep were immediately called up by their online friends to check the messages.
…
“Why is there such a big commotion? There’s even a promotional function, what a joke.”
Clutch King could not help but ridicule everyone.
Li Yi patted him on the shoulder and smiled. “Come on, let’s hurry up and get out of here. A lot of people will probably come to check on us later, and we’re still missing the last part of our mission!”
Snow Chaser covered her mouth and chuckled in agreement. “Yeah, it’s time to go to the City Lord and get the reward. I don’t know what we’ll get, but I hope it’ll be nice.”
Hearing this, Clutch King stopped complaining.
The three of them quickly made their way back.
About half an hour later, Li Yi and the other two reappeared in the City Lord’s study.
“I will forever be grateful to the three of you. At this critical moment in our history, you actually found the key to the Hall of Remembrance.”
Noel’s face was full of smiles. It could be seen that he was really very happy, so he went straight to the point.
“This is my thank you gift to all of you.”
Noel pulled open the drawer in his office. He gave two rings and a necklace to Li Yi.
At that moment, the system’s voice sounded.
[System Notification: Congratulations on completing the mission. Rewards are….]
