Chapter 478 Arjun's Encounter in the Secret Realm

Emily nodded.

"What about casualties?"

Carl smiled.

"zero."

Emily smiled too.

"good."

Helena came over and handed her a list.

"Captain, here is tonight's loot tally."

Emily took it and glanced at it.

She nodded.

"Distribute them. Give priority to the newcomers."

Helena frowned.

"Guild leader, these new recruits haven't even contributed yet, and you're already giving them equipment??"

Emily looked at her.

"Their survival itself is a contribution."

Helena fell silent.

Carl sighed.

"Emily, you'll ruin yourself if you keep going like this."

Emily smiled.

No, it won't.

She looked into the distance, her gaze distant.

"Karl, do you know why I did this?"

Carl shook his head.

Emily said softly.

"Because I want them to know that there are still people in this world who care about them."

She paused.

"Wild monsters are hard to kill, but killing people is easy. I understand why those hunters choose this path."

"But I absolutely disagree."

Karl was silent for a few seconds.

Then he said.

"Emily, you are the kindest person I have ever met."

Emily smiled.

"Kindness?? Maybe."

She gripped the staff tightly.

"But kind people also need the power to protect their kindness."

In the distance, the night gradually faded.

The eastern horizon was beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn.

There are eight hours until the next overlap.

But the purgatory in the western border continues.

......

In the western border, deep in a secluded valley.

Raj Kumar opened his eyes, and what came into view was the eerie purple sky above him.

It wasn't a normal night sky, nor was it the azure of daytime; rather, it was a sky that seemed to have been imbued with some kind of power, flowing with a dark purple halo.

"Another day has passed," he said softly, getting up from the ground and stretching his limbs.

Arjun Mishra sat not far away, meditating to restore his mana.

Upon hearing Raj's voice, he opened his eyes, a helpless smile appearing on his face.

"Raji, how long have we been stuck here?"

Raji thought about it.

"From entering the second round until now, it's been about... a day and a half? Two days? I can't remember exactly. There's no day or night here, I can only rely on my intuition."

Arjun sighed.

"We missed the first overlap period."

Raj grinned.

"So what? Look at our points."

He opened the points panel and showed it to Arjun.

[Western Frontier Points Ranking]

1st Place: Raj Kumar

2nd Place: Emily

3rd Place: Arjun Mishra

......

Arjun glanced at it, and couldn't help but smile.

"Indeed, although we missed the overlapping period, the elite monsters here give out way too many points. One of them is equivalent to three outside."

Raj laughed heartily.

"That's why I say it's luck!!! Incredible luck!!!"

He turned and looked into the distance.

It was a vast, secret realm with complex and varied terrain.

There are rolling hills, dried-up riverbeds, jagged rocky outcrops, and patches of eerie purple forests.

Scattered throughout this space were the corpses of the wild monsters they had hunted over the past two days.

Those are not ordinary monsters.

【Shadow Wolves (Elite)】Level 55, high attack, fast speed, travels in packs.

【Ghost Mage (Elite)】Level 57, specializing in ranged spells and control skills.

【Shadow Guardian (Elite)】Level 58, extremely high defense, wields a greatsword, invincible in melee combat.

Each one requires a team of several hundred people to handle if placed outside.

But Raj and Arjun fought their way through.

Arjun looked at Raj.

"Is your injury healed?"

Raj looked down at his arm.

There was a deep wound there, left from a battle with a level 58 Shadow Guardian.

That guy's greatsword almost cleaved him in two.

"Alright." Raj stretched his arms. "Your healing spell worked pretty well."

Arjun gave a wry smile.

Raji chuckled.

"Of course. The name 'Berserker' isn't just for show."

He clenched his fist, feeling the power surging within him.

[Berserker's Blood] The lower the health, the more terrifying the attack power and attack speed.

In the past two days, he has been on the verge of death countless times.

He was torn apart by shadow wolves, bombarded by ghost mages, and slashed by shadow guards.

Each time, he felt like he was going to die.

But each time, he survived.

Moreover, his strength would surge after each near-death experience.

"Let's go," he said. "How many monsters are left?"

Arjun looked around.

"Yesterday's work has been finished. We should move in today."

Raj followed his gaze.

Deeper into the secret realm lies an even darker area.

The outline of a huge building can be vaguely seen there, like an ancient altar.

At the top of the altar, there was a huge figure.

The figure was entirely black, perched atop the highest point of the altar. Its exact form was obscured, except for a pair of scarlet eyes that gleamed with a chilling light in the darkness.

"That's the BOSS, right?" Raj asked.

Arjun nodded.

"It should be. And the level isn't low, at least level 55 or higher."

Raj's eyes lit up.

"A level 55 boss! Haha! Hopefully, it'll be fun!"

Arjun looked at him, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"Raji, aren't you scared at all?"

Raj turned to look at him.

"Afraid? Afraid of what?"

Raj interrupted him.

"Arjun, have you forgotten how we got here?"

Arjun paused for a moment.

Raji pointed to the corpses of the elite monsters behind him.

"These guys, each one of them would require dozens of people to deal with. But the two of us killed them all."

He clenched his fists, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.

"Besides, I have you. You have me. Together, we're more than two. So what if it's a level 55 boss? We'll kill it anyway!"

Arjun remained silent for a few seconds.

Then he laughed.

"You're right. The two of us can kill."

He stood up and stretched his wrists.

"Let's go then. Let me see what treasures this secret realm holds."

The two tidied up their equipment, checked their potions and items, and then headed deeper into the secret realm.

Behind them, the corpses of those elite monsters gradually dissipated, turning into points and a small amount of materials that fell into their backpacks.

Ahead, those scarlet eyes seemed to be watching them.

......

Deep within the secret realm.

The further you go in, the colder and more damp the air becomes.

Raji and Arjun walked side by side, keeping a distance where they could support each other at any time.

Their footsteps echoed through the empty, secluded place, the surrounding silence terrifying.

"Something's not right," Arjun said in a low voice.

Raj nodded.
