"That's right, Brother Shen Xing, go for it. We won't compete with you for it."

"Yes, yes, that's Proof of Hero, which adds another hero unit to the territory. And that greatsword he's holding isn't ordinary either; it's probably at least an Epic Rank weapon."

"Go for it, we'll be there to back you up."

"..."

Shen Xing glanced at them and chuckled.

Seeing that he didn't react, the group of players were somewhat disappointed, knowing that top players like him weren't that stupid.

They started out with a "let's give it a try" attitude, figuring there wouldn't be much to lose if they failed.

The atmosphere in the main hall became tense once again.

Everyone present wanted the treasure in the BOSS's possession, but none of them were confident in dealing with such a powerful opponent, and they were also worried that other players would take advantage of the situation.

Shen Xing waited for a few minutes.

Seeing that the atmosphere remained tense, they decided to explore another place and not waste any more time with them there.

After all, the maze's opening time was limited, and he possessed a heaven-defying treasure like the Mysterious Compass.

The entire maze was a treasure trove waiting to be explored for him; there was no need to put all his eggs in one basket.

Just as he was about to lead Jiang Rong away, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure in the distance.

The other person was wearing a gray trench coat, with their hands in their pockets, and strolled slowly through the main hall.

"Hmm... that's... Captain Zhou Zheng?"

Shen Xing asked with a puzzled look, "When did he come in?"

Chapter 230: The terrifying power of Seven Deadly Sins: Greed, the berserk BOSS!

Jiang Rong, who was standing nearby, also saw the figure in the trench coat and exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, it's Captain Zhou!"

She quickly waved, signaling the other person to come over.

Strangely, Zhou Zheng only nodded after they greeted him, but did not come over immediately.

Instead, he continued to stroll leisurely around the throne with his hands in his pockets before slowly walking towards them.

"Shen Xing, Jiang Rong, you two have actually run into each other."

Zhou Zheng smiled familiarly, "Not bad, not bad. I was worried that Jiang Rong would get lost in the maze and wouldn't even be able to find the exit."

Jiang Rong snorted and retorted with her arms crossed, "Who do you think you are! My memory is excellent; I won't forget a path I've walked once, and I've even gotten a lot of treasures!"

"Right, Shen Xing?"

Shen Xing couldn't help but chuckle, but didn't expose her, nodding and saying, "Hmm, Senior Jiang Rong has a good memory."

Zhou Zheng glanced at her indifferently, clearly not believing her statement.

He didn't delve into it further, but instead said, "Now that we've all gathered, let's go and explore somewhere else."

"Let's go?" Shen Xing asked doubtfully. "Aren't we going to pull off a heist? If the three of us team up, we should have a good chance of getting the Proof of Hero."

"Even if those players want to snatch it, they'll have to think twice."

Previously, with only him and Jiang Rong present, Shen Xing wasn't entirely confident.

Now there's an extra "Zhou Zheng".

Although Shen Xing hadn't seen him go all out yet, he knew without a doubt that he must be very strong.

So he decided to take advantage of this boss.

However, Zhou Zheng shook his head and said, "Let's not take the risk. Someone just tried it, but ultimately failed."

"The one on the throne possesses the combat strength of Tier Four Master Rank, and his potential has reached the Leader Rank."

"Extremely powerful, beyond our capabilities."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xing's eyes also showed a thoughtful expression.

If I go all out and summon all the generals in my territory, I should be able to defeat the Tier Four Leader Rank.

However, this would be tantamount to revealing all their cards.

Moreover, this battle must have taken a toll, making it difficult to encounter enemies of this caliber again.

Just as he was pondering these things, Zhou Zheng suddenly walked closer and spoke in a barely audible voice.

"Hurry, something bad is about to happen."

Shen Xing was stunned.

Something happened? What happened?

Just a moment later, he realized something and silently looked toward the central area.

At this moment, the figure leaning against the throne still kept his eyes closed, with his hands hanging naturally at his chest.

However, the greatsword and the Proof of Hero in the opponent's hand had vanished!

Shen Xing immediately understood, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

But he quickly regained his composure.

At that moment, he gave Zhou Zheng a deep look.

Clearly, he did all of this.

Although it is unknown how he managed to steal the item from a Master Rank expert without anyone noticing.

But one can imagine that once the other party notices, they will surely erupt in boundless rage.

At that time, all players in the entire hall will be affected.

"Forget it, let's go." Shen Xing shook his head and said calmly, "This monster is too strong. If we fight it head-on, we might suffer heavy losses."

As he spoke, he pushed his wheelchair and chose a passage to enter.

Zhou Zheng and Jiang Rong followed silently behind.

The other players, witnessing this, were immediately filled with disappointment and disdain.

"Tch, these guys from Heavenly Star Nation just left like that? What kind of number one on both lists is that? They're such cowards!"

"That's normal. After all, he was Master Rank expert, and there were only three players from the Heavenly Star Nation here. They weren't confident they could handle so many of us, so they naturally left."

"It's a pity, it would be great if it could help us weaken some of the BOSS's power."

"..."

The players were discussing it animatedly, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Then, they waited for about four or five minutes.

During this time, another stone door opened, and a new person entered.

However, the newcomer remained vigilant, observing from the sidelines.

No matter how much the players tried to persuade him, he remained unmoved.

After waiting a few more minutes, one player finally couldn't take it anymore.

"Brothers, let's go!"

He said in a deep voice, "We, the Golden Eagle Kingdom, will go first to engage the monster. Let's all work together and take down this BOSS."

"The distribution will then be based on contributions."

The group exchanged glances and nodded solemnly.

Instead of wasting time here, let's join forces and take down the enemy first.

As for the rewards, we'll talk about that after the war.

Just as they picked up their weapons and prepared to discuss tactics...

Suddenly.

The entire hall began to shake violently.

"Boom... boom boom..."

The dome shook violently, and the ground trembled, as if some ancient force was awakening!

Amidst their surprised and puzzled gazes, the figure who had been sitting slumped on the throne slowly rose to his feet.

A terrifying aura, far surpassing that of Tier Three, rose up and instantly enveloped the entire hall!

"What... what's going on? Who the hell started the monster early?! Holy crap!"

"What the hell? The teams haven't been assigned yet?!"

"No one pulled the monster; the boss got up on its own."

"What!?"

Everyone was completely bewildered and extremely confused.

At that moment, one of the players noticed something and exclaimed in surprise.

"Look at the boss's hands, those things are gone!"

The other players were stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and they all turned to look, their pupils shrinking instantly.

"Holy crap! It's really gone!"

"Where are the Epic weapons? Where are the Proof of Hero? Who the hell took them?"

"That's not right. I've been watching the BOSS the whole time, and I haven't seen anyone get close."

"What the hell?! Where did all these treasures go?!"

The players were completely bewildered and had no idea what had happened.

At that moment, the being who had awakened on the throne swept his gaze across the entire arena.

He spoke in a deep, Wrath voice. "You rats, afraid to face my power head-on, you resort to such methods!"

"No one can escape from under my nose!"

As he finished speaking, he slowly raised his hands, as if awakening the power of the entire hall!

The next moment, the players were horrified to see that all the stone doors around them had suddenly closed.

This is absolutely unheard of!

Keep in mind that other players had already challenged this boss, but the gate wasn't closed back then.

The player was ultimately defeated and escaped through a nearby passage.

But now, all the passages are blocked, giving them absolutely no chance to escape!

Before the lords of various countries could react, the resurrected BOSS had already jumped down from the throne.
