Inspired by Song Jian, everyone immediately started to get excited; however, Ma Yu took no time to pour cold water on them: “The safes in the underground vault, can you open them? They’re sturdy enough to resist a bomb, and not to mention, the walls and the door itself are thousands of pounds of concrete…”

“And you’re forgetting, there were high-level monsters in that vault last time. We nearly lost our lives down there…” Tang Rong added somewhat fearfully.

“Gold bricks, guys! Those are actual gold bricks that we can take back to the real world! Each of them worth hundreds of thousands; even if we can only take one out at a time, we’d be rich!” Zhou Qing protested reluctantly.

“I do have a master key, maybe it can open the door to that vault…” Song Jian suddenly suggested.

“What, really? Ha! What do we have to fear now? Even if the monsters in there are formidable, are they as terrifying as the ones in this duplicate world? We’ve made it this far, so what should we fear from creatures in the underground vault?” Zhou Qing exclaimed.

“After we finish this duplicate world, we’ll head straight to the bank’s underground vault,” Wang Qi decided.

“Alright, then we’ll entirely empty out that vault. Ha!”

“We’re going to be rich! Finally, days without work and loads of freedom are within our reach!”

Everyone instantly became energized.

After a short rest of about ten minutes, when everyone’s Vitality and Spirit Points were completely replenished, they started cautiously making their way deeper into the dungeon.

“I think we should kill all the prisoners in these cages,” Zhou Qing articulated while witnessing the aimless pacing of the imprisoned monsters, finding something odd about the situation.

“That’s a waste of time. Why not just finish the boss, clear the dungeon and be done with it? We’re in a hurry, after all,” Tang Rong shook his head.

An idea crossed Song Jian’s mind, and he hastily told Tang Rong, “You infiltrate it, find out what kind of property this boss monster has. Elite Level or Lord Level?”

Tang Rong was taken aback for a moment but did not reject the proposal, instead, he skillfully performed a stealth maneuver, quietly advancing forward.

There were quite a lot of monsters in the corridor. After cautiously checking the room at the end of the corridor, upon his return, Tang Rong mentioned to Song Jian “20th level, Lord Level boss.”

“What, a 20th-level Lord Level Boss?” Wang Qi and the others exclaimed in astonishment. For them, this task was practically unachievable.

“It appears we should first clear all the small monsters in these cages,” Song Jian suggested with a bitter smile.” Lord Level Bosses have a summoning skill. It’s quite possible he will summon all the small creatures from the cages halfway through the fight. At that point, with so many small monsters, I may not be able to hold them back alone.”

“Safety first, safety first!” Wang Qi and the others responded in fear.

“Let’s start with the cages on the left; there are only two monsters in there!” Tang Rong pointed to a cage behind him.

“You guys group up into fours, I’ll go solo. Split and act, it’ll be quicker.” Song Jian proposed.

“Alright, Brother Song, If something happens, just yell and we’ll come to your aid,” Wang Qi immediately responded.

“It’s more like if we run into something, we’ll yell for Brother Song,” Ma Yu smirked at Wang Qi.

The monsters in the cages were much easier to handle than the ones in the corridor. They were all groggy and acted as if they lost their senses, only attacking the enemies who dared to enter their confinements. Moreover, they merely claw at their foes during the attacks. They did not possess any special traits or skills, just a higher amount of vitality than their outdoor zombie counterparts;

Song Jian mopped up two or three cages in a row and after neutralizing a small monster in the fourth cage, found something was off about this cage;

Not only did this cage contain a plain wooden bed, it also had a desk and a chair, while the rest of the cages were filled with nothing more than dry straws.

Overcome by curiosity, Song Jian pulled open the drawer of the table, and inside, he found a decomposed notebook and a corroded pen. These two items weren’t even worthy of being considered “odds and ends”. The notebook crumbled to pieces at the slightest touch, and the pen was corroded to the extent that even the cap wouldn’t come off.

After thoroughly searching the drawer and finding nothing of interest, Song Jian shook his head, shifting his attention to the wooden bed.

At this point, a thin mattress was resting on the plain wooden bed, covered with dirty stains. Song Jian walked up, grabbed it, and threw it away.

Suddenly, a smooth wooden board appeared in front of Song Jian’s eyes. Numbers were carved into the board with fingertips.

2,7,13,45,-

“Two, seven, thirteen, forty-five?” Song Jian frowned in confusion: “What does this mean?”

After a while of thinking without coming to any conclusions, Song Jian shook his head in disappointment and left.

Just as he was leaving the cage, the whole wooden bed started to decay rapidly, as if a few minutes had spanned several decades, or centuries. Even the wooden legs failed to support the bed, slowly rotting and collapsing. In a blink of an eye, the wooden bed turned into a pile of decaying ruins;

At this moment, a metal plate appeared under the bed on the floor. Most of the plate was buried under the debris of the decayed bed, with only a palm-sized area exposed, and unless looked at closely, it could easily go unnoticed;

Everyone together took more than two hours to clear off all the small monsters in the corridor and the cages. It appeared that there were only two Bosses in the entire dungeon, they had already killed one, so only one remained in the room at the end of the corridor;

“Only this one is left, kill it, and we can clear the entire dungeon,” Ma Yu said, somewhat excited.

“Hey, do you think we’ll be on TV?” Tang Rong asked, laughing.

“I don’t think so. Only by completing the highest difficulty in the dungeon, do we stand a chance to be featured on TV.” Zhou Qing shook his head.

“May luck be with me, let a silver-quality shield drop for me!” Ma Yu prayed with his hands together;

“Ha-ha, aren’t you afraid that a level twenty shield will drop? Then you’ll only be able to watch but not use it.” Wang Qi laughed.

“As long as it’s a shield, I’ll be able to use it sooner or later,” Ma Yu retorted indignantly.

“I’m going for it!” Song Jian smirked, holding the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword in his hand, heading towards the final room;

“Evil Star Samodo, Lord level, Level 20, Vitality: 8100/8100, Traits: Cruelty, Berserk, Skills: Star-breaking Slash, Imprison, Armor-breaking Strike, Angry Roar, Summoning, Slaughter;”

Song Jian was about to enter when he reconsidered and with a wave of his hand, he summoned two fire elves. Following that, he summoned his pet, the Black Dragon Hatchling.

The two 20th level fire elves were considerably larger than Song Jian, their upper body wafting with heat, and beneath their waist was a blaze of fire. The searing temperature caused the surrounding air to warp and distort.

“Go, attack that monster!” Song Jian pointed at the boss ahead and commanded.
