Chapter 208 Let's Speedrun

The arrival of the Flame Emperor Academy was more imposing than that of the Genesis Academy. Lin Yi went straight to the instance hall and quickly entered the "Fire God Palace" instance.

"The Genesis Academy and the Flame Emperor Academy are at it again."

"No choice, the Genesis Academy is too high up there. These two academies can only compete with each other to vie for the second place for eternity."

"This time, it's estimated that they'll compete to see who can clear the instance faster."

"No matter how they compete, they can't break Lin's record."

"With the Genesis Academy above them and Lin dominating the instances, their competition can only result in them being perennial runners-up."

"Hahaha!"

Everyone laughed.

Lin Mo thought about the aura he had just felt.

Among the numerous auras of boss accessories, one particularly special aura caught his attention.

This aura felt like that of a fire elemental creature.

Fire elemental creatures had the characteristic of being immune to fire elemental damage.

That boss accessory seemed to have a similar effect.

However, he couldn't be completely certain since he hadn't seen it specifically.

He might have a chance to look up information about boss accessories.

He was quite ignorant about this aspect.

It seemed like Bai Yiyuan didn't intend to tell him either.

Perhaps in the eyes of a supreme powerhouse like Bai Yiyuan, low-level boss accessories were simply not worth mentioning.

Their requirements for equipment had reached another level.

At the very least, it had to be legendary-grade equipment for them to pay attention to.

Lin Mo meditated and rested for three hours, undisturbed during that time.

His depleted mental power had fully recovered.

His consumed physical energy had also recovered significantly.

All exhaustion vanished.

At this moment, Lin Mo felt the difference of 200 points in attributes.

After taking a primary magical potion, all his attributes increased by 200.

For attributes that easily reached tens of thousands, this increase might not mean much, but for him, it was like a 40% boost to all attributes except for mental power, which made a significant difference.

Enhanced physique led to greatly increased recovery speed.

Thinking about those knights with physiques that could reach thousands or even tens of thousands, who could fight continuously for days and nights without getting tired.

Each profession had its own advantages; envy was pointless.

He got up and walked back into the instance hall.

It was still the "Fire God Palace" instance, still on hell difficulty.

It had been over two hours since the two top academies entered the instance, and they still hadn't come out.

This performance was already better than the Bai Li Academy's.

Both the Genesis Academy's and the Flame Emperor Academy's teams had a common characteristic: they had abandoned prophets.

They all used the War King's assistance along with four healers.

In this way, there were effectively five healers in the team.

Plus one knight, making six attackers.

Their combat power was greatly enhanced.

If they couldn't defeat this, then it would be a disgrace to their boss accessories.

The skeletal armor sparkled, keeping all flames at bay.

The instance remained extremely hot. As soon as the skeleton warriors appeared, they were surrounded by fire elementals.

Just two seconds later, flames engulfed them, turning them into fire skeletons.

Lin Mo followed the previous method step by step and steadily pushed forward.

He had already cleared it five times and was now familiar with every monster's position and quantity.

He wouldn't let a single monster slip by; no matter where they hid, he could find them.

Lin Mo's instance clearing speed was incredibly fast, gaining plenty of experience and materials without leaving anything behind.

When he completed the sixth run and exited the instance, he casually glanced at the light curtain displaying the records of the instance.

Only his name was still on the light curtain.

The teams from the two top academies were slower than expected.

It had been over three hours since they entered the instance, exceeding Lin Mo's estimate.

Looking at his name on the light curtain, Lin Mo suddenly had a mischievous idea.

"Maybe I should speed up a bit."

With this thought in mind, he selected hell difficulty and entered the instance again.

As soon as he entered the instance, four skeleton warriors rushed out.

Lin Mo planned to speedrun this time.

He made some changes in certain places to create his own highest record.

The skeleton warriors ran swiftly, crossing the bridge and the square in the blink of an eye, and entering the cave.

Some monsters were not attracted this time, but Lin Mo didn't care.

This time, he pursued speed, not quality.

It was purely for fun.

After all, he was only an 18-year-old young man, and Lin Mo was far from as mature and reserved as he appeared on the surface.

At this time, in the White God's Pavilion.

Three people were watching the situation in the "Fire God Palace" instance.

As the controller of the instance hall, Ning Tairan could view the situation in any instance and even intervene if necessary.

In the picture, the teams from the Genesis Academy and the Flame Emperor Academy were fighting the gardeners of the Fire God Palace.

And they had been fighting for some time.

It seemed that both sides were making similar progress.

But considering that the Flame Emperor Academy had entered the instance a little later, they were slightly ahead.

The three of them were enjoying the scene as if watching a movie.

"It seems that this time the Flame Emperor Academy is going to take the lead," Ning Tairan said.

He was right, and all three of them could see that.

White Yiyuan sipped his tea, "It's normal. This time, the Flame Emperor Academy is led by a Holy Fire Knight, who has extremely strong resistance to fire elements. Coupled with the Fire Beetle Ring, they've almost achieved immunity to fire damage."

"You didn't see the healers from the Flame Emperor Academy. Basically, they don't need to worry about the knights."

The Holy Fire Knight was a legendary class, naturally possessing a series of skills related to flames.

They had strong damage reduction abilities against fire elements and were most suitable for dungeons with powerful fire damage like the Fire God Palace.

Ning Tairan added, "Furthermore, each of their DPS is equipped with Frost Talismans, enhancing their attacks with the power of water. Water counters fire, so the power of water can strengthen their damage against fire-type monsters."

Through the analysis of the two, it was certain that the Flame Emperor Academy would win.

Meng Anwen casually said, "It's not good to say before the last step. But whether they win or lose is not important. After all, the old man's Genesis Academy is unshakable."

"And Lin's record is still there, they are still second to him."

A dungeon record of 1 hour and 12 minutes, unprecedented and likely to remain unchallenged in the future.

Meng Anwen's indifferent words carried a hint of pity.

Speaking of Lin Mo, Ning Tairan's mouth twitched slightly.

The scene in front of him changed.

An additional scene appeared.

"The brat is going into the instance again!" White Yiyuan laughed heartily, seeing Lin Mo's figure suddenly perking up, "Is this his first time clearing this dungeon?"

Ning Tairan said impatiently, "It's his seventh time."

He noticed Lin Mo's next move, "This time seems a bit different."

Meng Anwen squinted his eyes, scanning, "He's going for a speedrun this time. He's aiming to thoroughly crush others."

"I can't tell, usually he looks silent, but he's actually scheming. Old White, this kid is a bit like you when you were young."

White Yiyuan was quite satisfied with Lin Mo's actions, indeed reminiscent of himself when he was young, except he was more arrogant back then, unlike Lin Mo, who was more restrained.

White Yiyuan's smile became even brighter, "It's good to strike back a bit, to stop them from thinking they're invincible all the time, let them know there are others out there and there are heavens beyond the heavens."

"When Lin enters the Genesis Academy in the future, he won't be bullied either."

Ning Tairan was taken aback, "Are you planning to let him enter the Genesis Academy?"

Normally, top talents like Lin Mo would definitely go to the Genesis Academy.

Meng Anwen was also a bit puzzled, not understanding why White Yiyuan said that.

After all, he had told Lin Mo some conditions for entering the Genesis Academy before, and everyone thought he would arrange for Lin Mo to go there.

However, Meng Anwen understood why after a little thought.

White Yiyuan confidently said, "The old man already has his students, and he must have used up all those resources. If there are no resources left, why send Lin there to pick up what others don't want?"

"I know there are still good things in the Genesis Academy. Of course, I want to go there."

Ning Tairan knew about Lin Mo's situation, and hearing White Yiyuan say this, it indeed made sense.

If there were no resources left, what was the point of going to the Genesis Academy?

To learn? Couldn't White Yiyuan teach?

Going there would be for those resources.

Ning Tairan started to consider where Ning Yi should go.

In the picture, Lin Mo's speed was extremely fast, following the group of monsters with all his strength.

The skeletal warriors swiftly passed through the cave and rushed to the entrance of the palace.

Ignoring the giant eye warning, they charged into the palace.

The monsters behind them also followed suit.

Lin Mo was the last to enter. When he ran out from the other end of the palace, the skeletal warriors had already run into the garden and were circling around it.

There were over 200 monsters chasing behind them.

The gardener had climbed out of the magma.

White Yiyuan's eyebrows twitched, "This kid is playing big."

Indeed, he was playing big.

He ran from the entrance of the dungeon to here in less than half an hour.

Faster than any previous attempt.

At this moment, fifty skeletal warriors appeared and targeted a flame lizard.

Skill: Slow Curse!

Under the red light, all monsters slowed down.

The skeletal warriors also launched their attacks at this moment.

Skills erupted, and the flame lizard was instantly killed.

Followed by a series of explosions.

Fresh corpses, powerful explosions.

After more than thirty explosions in a row, the garden was in a mess.

Including the palace gardener, all the boss monsters were blown to death.

The fifty skeletal warriors dragged dozens of fresh palace guards' bodies and ran towards the final boss.
