The Final Plan

Because the trial begins in the morning on the first day, and the trial will continue until the morning of the 101st day.

Moreover, on the morning of the hundredth day, a 24-hour Countdown appeared on the fifth floor of the Trial Grounds, further clarifying the final end time.

The hunters on each level, watching the Countdown on the field shorten by the second, were all plunged into despair.

"How the hell are we going to get through this?!"

On the fourth floor, the Lion King glared at the Advanced Demon Statue and cursed.

The day after Luo Jun cleared the level, Lion King, along with Rain Granny and Xie Zi'ang, cleared the third level. The Guan Family Siblings and Xuanyuan Wuji's team cleared it even faster. Now, on the fourth level, there are six people attempting it.

However, after being stripped of their vital energy, even a Champion-level expert, whose strength is only thirty or forty times that of an ordinary person, is basically in a similar state to Luo Jun on the fifth floor when facing Advanced Demon Statue. At most, they can ensure they don't die, but they are completely unable to break through its defenses.

Moreover, they don't have the special buffs from Luo Jun's Attributes Exceeding Hundred, nor do they have a teacher to provide experience and insights, making them even more difficult to deal with.

"But 'Night' only lasted a day, didn't it?" Guan Hongyue sneered. "Lion King, admit it, the Savage Wilderness has gained another figure who surpasses you!"

"What do you mean 'more'?" the Lion King roared. "Ling Yao is one thing, but what makes your brother better than me?"

"Who mentioned my brother?" Guan Hongyue spread her hands innocently. "You admitted it yourself!"

"You brat!" Lion King made a move to attack, but Xie Zi'ang stopped him in time, and a shouting match broke out in the stands.

"I'll try again!" Xuanyuan Wuji stood up and walked towards the Trial Grounds.

"That kid's really persistent," everyone remarked, watching his retreating figure.

"He must have been provoked by 'Night'," Guan Hongyue sighed. "This guy's strength is truly formidable, but he's not quite right in the head. He said he came to the Savage Wilderness to challenge Ling Yao, but he hasn't seen Ling Yao in the past few months, and instead, he's been dealt a blow by someone he'd never heard of before, 'Night'... He probably can't accept it right now."

"Such an overconfident person is easily discouraged when faced with a setback..." Rain Granny sighed. "I hope he can pull through."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xuanyuan Wuji walked into the Trial Grounds and shouted, "Come on, today I'll let you enjoy the glory of falling at the feet of this This Heaven's Chosen!"

The voice was strong and clear, without a trace of dejection...

"Perhaps this kid has a better mental fortitude than we thought..." Xie Zi'ang frowned.

"I think it's blind confidence," the Lion King scoffed.

"No matter what, we can't give up until the very last moment!" Guan Tianshuang stood up and stretched. "After Xuanyuan Wuji leaves the arena, I'll give it a try!"

While the six masters on the fourth level continued their attempts, Luo Jun on the fifth level did not relax either.

At this moment, he was wielding a Broken Horn and fighting against the golem!

After a full day of practice, he was basically able to dismantle the Demon Horn skillfully, but even with the Demon Horn in hand, he still didn't have enough strength to penetrate the golem's armor. Especially the energy core inside the chest cavity, which had an internal protection layer. Although it wasn't as thick as the outer armor, it was almost impossible to directly explode it.

Therefore, Luo Jun's plan was still to use the Demon Horn to pierce through the gaps in the armor and interfere with the energy circuit, Paralyze Golem, and then find a way to kill it.

The problem is that this golem is Magic Creation; its energy circuits aren't like electrical wires and cables, fixed in place. As the golem moves, its energy circuits change constantly, making it extremely difficult to pinpoint the key moments in a dynamic battle!

This was only possible because Luo Jun enhanced his senses and could see the flow of vital energy. If it were someone else, there would be absolutely no chance of success, and they wouldn't even have thought of this plan.

Moreover, the cost of trial and error for this plan is very high. The nodes of the energy circuit are hidden deep beneath the armor. It is only possible to successfully interfere with the system by waiting for it to move close to the gaps in the armor and inserting the Demon Horn very deep.

"Now!"

Luo Jun seized the opportunity and inserted the Demon Horn into the gap in the golem's abdominal armor, almost two-thirds of it!

No, the energy circuit wasn't disturbed... This attempt failed...

The Demon Horn was firmly stuck in the armor, and it was impossible for Luo Jun to pull it out. He could only dodge the attack, retreat from the arena, and let the golem respawn.

Today's Dice Opportunity are all used up, but Luo Jun had previously tried to determine the outcome by rolling the dice, and directly destroying the core was Mandatory Event, impossible to achieve... As for the interference circuit, the difficulty is as high as 98 points, so there is still a glimmer of hope.

Looking at the time, it's not long until midnight. Luo Jun has also exhausted a lot of energy, so let's call it a day...

Tomorrow is the last chance, and Luo Jun has devised two plans. If all goes well, Plan One should have a high probability of success.

But if Plan 1 fails to trigger, we'll have to resort to the most basic backup plan, just like now: without relying on dice, we'll try to fold corners and insert again and again until we succeed...

The Countdown in the center of the arena shows just over ten hours left until the Hundred Day Limit. These ten hours of relentless attempts—I have to succeed at least once...

"You're getting more and more skilled," came the Golden Edge Witch from behind.

Yes, as you become more skilled, the experience points you gain from dice become less and less...

After a day of repeated challenges and practice, he leveled up again, now reaching level twenty-six. To increase the probability of Paralyze Golem, he drew attributes from both levels, rolling seven and nine points respectively, adding another forty-six attribute points to himself.

The attribute enhancement made him stronger, increasing his success rate while also reducing the difficulty and experience required for dodging. He is currently more than a thousand experience points away from level 27.

"But I'm not skilled enough yet," Luo Jun replied casually, his eyes fixed on the huddled golem on the field, silently praying in his heart.

Based on past experience, it should trigger at the last minute... Once midnight passes, the count resets, and they should give you a chance!

Luo Jun clenched his fists, his palms sweating, watching the time tick by, feeling even more nervous than when he faced the golem on the field.

"If you do manage to escape, what are your plans?" the Golden Edge Witch asked casually.

Although Luo Jun had given her the cold shoulder for a day because he had slandered someone she knew, there was no one else around in this deserted place, and she was nearing the end of her life, so she still wanted to talk to someone...

"I never thought about it..." Luo Jun took a deep breath, "My mind was completely focused on how to escape..."

"Is that so..." The Golden Edge Witch lowered her head, rolled up her sleeve, and secretly glanced at the increasing number of Black Spot and scales. "Good luck."

"Huh?" Luo Jun didn't understand what the other person meant. Just then, midnight had passed.

Without warning, a series of notification sounds rang in Luo Jun's mind.

Mission Target: Pass the Outstanding Trial

"Mission Difficulty: 95"

Severity Coefficient: 12 times

"Mission Consume: Six Uses"

"Mission Quota: Fifteen uses"

"Accept or not?"

It's here!

Luo Jun was so excited he almost jumped up!

He had been wondering why the Mission System hadn't been activated in the Underground Ruins Trial Grounds so large, so dangerous, and involving so many people.

After much thought, there's only one possibility: in the past, tasks were always released at the last, most crucial moment, but this time, the 100-day deadline hasn't arrived yet, and the dice aren't in a hurry to release tasks!

Therefore, Luo Jun guessed that if he still hadn't cleared the game by the final stage and still had enough attempts left, he would most likely activate the system's Mission System!

This is his first plan!

As it turns out, he was right!

Luo Jun accepted the mission and completed fifteen attempts!

"You wish me good luck?" Luo Jun's grin stretched almost to his ears. "No, you should wish us good luck!"

Smiling, Luo Jun turned back to look at the Golden Edge Witch, but his expression suddenly froze.

The long-haired woman wearing a mask was slumped against the back of the chair in front of her, her head bowed, motionless...
