Just as everyone was thinking about the first stage-clearance reward, a sudden sound came to their ears.

…

[Ding! Congratulations to player Maise the God for slaying the Dark Dragon and completing the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon Challenge Quest!]

[Ding! Congratulations to player Maise the God for slaying the Dark Dragon and completing the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon Challenge Quest!]

[Ding! Congratulations to player Maise the God for slaying the Dark Dragon and completing the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon Challenge Quest!]

[Ding! Congratulations to player Maise the God for being the first player in the entire server to clear the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon. The player will receive the first stage-clearance reward after he leaves the Dragon’s Lair.]

[As player Maise the God is carrying the Fiendish Red Name, the difficulty of the challenge has increased by one level. The reward has increased by 20%]

…

Many were on the fourth floor of the Dragon’s Lair. They were confident, thinking they could be the first to get the stage-clearance reward. However, the robotic voice immediately made their bodies freeze.

“Maise the God? He did it?”

“I don’t think so.”

On the faces of the people, all that had written was disbelief and depressing expressions. Because of the announcement, they all gaped at that one message.

“Congratulations to player Maise the God for being the first player in the entire server to clear the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon…the player will receive the first stage-clearance reward…the reward has increased by 20%!”

As they silently recited the announcement, they shook their heads frantically. Even when they were sure they hadn’t misheard or misread the content, they still found it hard to believe.

“It has only been ten minutes since the members of the Grand Sea Guild died, yet, the Dark Dragon is dead?”

“Maise the God was the one who slayed it!”

“How on earth did he do that?”

With a frightened tone, Whitey kept throwing questions on the regional channel.

Meanwhile, more and more people expressed their shock and fear on the world channel.

“Maise the God! The first person in the entire server to clear the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon!”

“How did he do it? Can someone send me a playback?”

“I’m interested to know if he did find a secret passage that can lead straight to the ninth floor. Otherwise, how could he have moved faster than us?”

“I want to know more how did he slay the Dark Dragon? Did any of you see it with your own eyes?”

“Oh my God, Maise the God has become even more mysterious than ever in my eyes.”

“Can I know the tips and tricks on how Maise the God cleared the dungeon? I’d love to clear the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon as soon as possible.”

“I can imagine that there must be a technique here. As long as you master it, you’ll be able to do the same as Maise the God. You’ll kill the Dark Dragon with the lift of a finger and complete the dungeon’s challenge quest.”

“…”

As the discussions rose, many people started to talk about the techniques. They believed there was some underlying secret behind Maise the God slaying the Dark Dragon.

If they knew one of his little secrets, they could become the second to clear the dungeon!

So they all sent friend requests to Maise the God.

“I’m level 15! Haha. I couldn’t add Maise the God before because of my level. But now, I’ve surpassed the restriction!”

“Me too! I can now add Maise the God as my friend.”

“I have big t*tties and a tiny waist. I’m good at it. I’ve added you now, Maise the God. Please accept my request!”

Voices rang out. Many had sent out friend requests, and they were all excited. As long as one person had successfully added Maise the God as their friend, they might be able to get on his good side and get him to reveal the secret.

Moreover, everyone was in on it. Whoever could obtain the information would share it. It was a technique for stage clearance, after all. As soon as one could master it, it would become a priceless piece of information. People could even sell it for money and give some pointers.

Just as they were on cloud nine, the system’s voice interrupted them.

[Ding! Your friend request was auto-rejected.]

[Ding! Your friend request was auto-rejected.]

[Ding! Your friend request was auto-rejected.]

[Maise the God has set a level restriction. Anyone below level 23 would not be able to add the player as their friend. The system will automatically reject their requests!]

“Auto-reject?”

Everyone’s face fell in disappointment on the spot. One second ago, they were still daydreaming. In the next second, they woke up from their dream.

“It’s level 23 this time.”

“Who in the world can reach level 23? I’m afraid not even the beta players have reached this far.”

“Maise the God must be messing with us!”

“And the system in Sword and Magic too. How absurd! They could have just notified me. Why did they have to come up with an auto-reject? It’s like they’re real humans!”

“Honestly, I can’t feel my limbs anymore. When I sent out my friend request, I thought I’d get Maise the God’s approval or denial himself. Who knew it was the system that replied ‘auto-rejected!'”

“I have to admit. The world of Sword and Magic is so awesome (tears sparkling in eyes).”

As a wave of depressed voices appeared, everyone kept shaking their heads. Since they couldn’t add Maise the God as their friends, they had no way of knowing the technique for the stage clearance. So, they had to go around in circles in the Dragon’s Lair again.

Many stayed on the fourth floor and kept farming monsters. If asked why they were still farming monsters, they would reply that they couldn’t find the fifth floor. Hence, they remained there farming. Because the Dragon’s Lair was extraordinarily vast and had all sorts of hidden interactive settings, many couldn’t find their way to the next floor. They would probably get stuck here until the 24 hours ended.

In Jiang Bai’s previous life, none of the players who had entered the Dragon’s Lair for the first time had cleared this dungeon. The best player had only reached the seventh floor, and that’s it. However, although the people couldn’t get out of the fourth floor, they were curious.

“I wonder what reward Maise the God has received.”

“Guys. Aren’t you all interested?”

“I want to. But I don’t know if the system will make a whole-server announcement.”

“D*mn it. I don’t want to see that happening. It’ll make my heart bleed all over again.”

“I agree with the player above since I didn’t get the reward. If it’s a whole-server announcement, I’ll kill myself!”

Everyone was reluctant, refusing to know the contents of the first stage-clearance reward.

However, the world of Sword and Magic was cruel. In the next five seconds, a series of unexpected announcements popped up.

[Ding! Congratulations to player Maise the God for opening the first stage-clearance reward. A whole-server announcement is about to be made!]

[Ding! Congratulations to player Maise the God for opening the first stage-clearance reward. A whole-server announcement is about to be made!]

[First stage-clearance reward of the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon: 1x Dragon’s Skeleton, 50000x Gold, 3x Experience Light Ball, 1x Body Evolution, 1x Skin Evolution, 1x Hair Evolution, +1000 guild contribution points, +1 guild marketplace permission…]

There were a total of 10 rewards.

Everyone felt goosebumps rise all over their skin. They couldn’t help themselves but wrap their hands around their head. They had never wanted the system to stop the announcement so bad.

“I’m in shock!”

“F*ck!”
