Suspicion

Rest day?

Cheng Shuili instantly became vigilant.

According to her usual understanding of the system, this thing would absolutely never be so kind. They were currently working 007 with no lunch breaks all year round, and now they were suddenly announcing a one-day monthly rest...

Heh. A trap.

It was definitely a trap.

It wasn't just Cheng Shuili who thought so; among those still alive, who could possibly be that naive? Well, except for Liang Shanbo, of course.

"A rest day? Haha, that sounds pretty ominous."

"Looking forward to it? I'm looking forward to the day you get deleted! I'm truly fed up."

"Don't be so full of hostility! Let's discuss this rationally. What is a rest day for? Is it just that there's no mileage, no dungeons, and we still have to drive, open crates, and find food ourselves? That would actually be quite pathetic."

"Why is this dog system like this again? It just mentions a name and doesn't explain any further!!"

That was true!

Why did it just mention a name again?

Cheng Shuili frowned tightly, but she had to listen to what the system was saying.

【Returning to the main topic, all players performed very well this time, but there are no extra rewards. Among all players who participated in this dungeon, our partition had one player who achieved the best results in the Hell-level!】

"Ah, if there were other levels, there might be suspense, but once it's mentioned as Hell-level, everyone doesn't even need to guess. @Angry Crow Takes Flight, what do you say, Big Boss Crow?"

"@Angry Crow Takes Flight! Big Boss! They're calling you! What are you doing?"

"@Angry Crow Takes Flight, haha, let's soak up some of that good luck."

"What are you all doing? It hasn't been announced yet, has it? Crow's strength is indeed strong, but it's impossible to be first every single time, right?"

"The person above will be slapped in the face soon."

Cheng Shuili was very calm, as if the person being talked about in the regional channel wasn't her.

She was used to it; she really was used to it.

The first time she was announced to the whole server, she had been a little excited, but now...

She and these whole-server announcements were like an old married couple; she couldn't muster even a shred of excitement anymore.

【However, it is worth mentioning that in addition to the highly anticipated Hell-level dungeon, the best record for this Epic-level dungeon was also refreshed by a player from this partition!】

Epic-level?

Cheng Shuili frowned. Could it be that kid, Chen Qingshan?

The regional channel had already begun an intense discussion.

"Who is it? Who is it? It's Epic-level! This race track is really uncertain! The topic is completely maxed out!"

"Is it really uncertain? Could it be that Big Boss Qingshan from last time? Honestly, he's the only one I recognize in the Epic-level, right?"

"The person above really dares to say that. Which one of those who can participate in Epic and Hell levels isn't a big boss? The Hell-level is undisputed because Big Boss Crow's strength is too formidable; the other big bosses who participated in the Hell-level dungeon are like fireflies trying to compete with the sun and moon of Crow. The Epic-level isn't like that! Although Big Boss Qingshan took first place last time, it was only a one-minute difference from second place. It was a very tight race!"

"Exactly, this is definitely undisputed. Big Boss Crow isn't just a tier above; Big Boss Crow has directly left everyone behind by a hundred thousand miles. I'm not just talking about those who participated in the Hell-level dungeon; I mean all players who participated in dungeons."

"The person above hit the nail on the head. I still can't understand until now why Crow, a player participating in the Hell-level dungeon, can take less time than even the Normal-level dungeons! Why?!"

"Are you hearing this for the first time? I'm really not doing well, haha. I thought everyone had accepted it long ago. Is it possible that no one has mentioned it until now?"

"Is Crow really human? He wouldn't actually be a crow, would he?"

"Her name is Angry Crow Takes Flight. I won't mention the source, but if she wasn't human, she probably wouldn't watch that anime, right?"

Cheng Shuili: "??"

And just like that, they were discussing whether she was human or not.

Forget it, it's not like she hasn't seen them discuss it before.

【Now announcing the personal ranking for this dungeon in this partition!】

【Normal-level: First place Cheng Yuyu, time taken 13 minutes 34 seconds!

......

Elite-level: First place Yishan Guanlan, time taken 34 minutes 23 seconds!

......】

"This first place in the Normal-level is the one from last time!"

"This person has a knack for speed-run dungeons; they have some skill."

"There are only three beastmen in the Normal-level, how many are there in the Elite-level? The time taken is about three times as much!"

"You guessed it right, the Elite-level has nine."

"What about Epic? What about Epic? Can any big boss tell us?"

"The Epic-level has 27, which is nine times that of the Normal-level."

"Nine times! Damn, then how much must the Hell-level be?"

"Not clear. Big Boss Crow knows, go ask Big Boss Crow!"

Actually, Cheng Shuili wasn't too sure either. She had followed the Wolf King and the others the whole way, which was no different from strolling around. Where would she have the heart to count?

But it was definitely over ten times.

"Is there anyone coming to place a bet! On the time taken for the Epic-level!"

"What's there to bet on? This can be calculated directly."

"Exactly, exactly, do you think everyone else is a sucker?"

Cheng Shuili narrowed her eyes. She already had a premonition that the result would definitely be jaw-dropping.

【Epic-level: First place Qingshan Trek, time taken 18 minutes 21 seconds!

Second place Silent Fortune, time taken 1 hour 57 minutes 33 seconds!

......

Ninth place Zhu Xuan, time taken 2 hours 25 minutes 43 seconds!

......】

18 minutes.

It was quite a bit longer than Cheng Shuili had imagined, but compared to second place, it was a very respectable result.

This time, it really exceeded everyone's expectations, and the regional channel exploded all at once.

"Did I read that right? It's 18 minutes, right? No hours?!!"

"The point that surprises me isn't the time, nor is it the gap between him and second place. What surprises me is that the name preceding this number isn't Angry Crow Takes Flight!"

"The person above! I understand you!! When I saw the number, I also thought it was Big Boss Crow, and I was wondering why Crow would participate in the Epic-level!"

"Damn, so from now on, is our partition going to have twin stars of dungeon speed-running? One non-human Crow, and one super-speedy Qingshan?"

"No, man, have you all gone crazy? I'll just ask three words: is he worthy? Is he worthy of being placed alongside Crow? Not to mention that one is Epic and one is Hell, the time Crow took was even lower than the Normal-level!! That's the most important thing! Lower than the Normal-level! She is a true god!"

"Big Boss Qingshan must have had good luck, right? Otherwise, it's because he had some kind of encounter and got some kind of item. Otherwise, how could he be unknown at the beginning and suddenly make a comeback? Is there anyone brave enough to snatch it?"

The regional channel fell into an eerie silence for a second.

Cheng Shuili couldn't help but chuckle softly. It was indeed an encounter, but this encounter would only happen this one time.

She knew exactly what was going on with Chen Qingshan this time, but the others didn't quite know. For a while, there were all kinds of speculations, and even within the organization, people started to suspect that Chen Qingshan had hidden something and hadn't reported it.
