Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Hell Difficulty



This result was not only difficult for the students to accept, but also left the teachers of No. 3 Middle School puzzled. A mage who reduces damage by 90% and a shield warrior who does basically no damage—how did this strange combination pass the Abyss Trial?

Ignoring the comments from those around him, Alex brought Tom to the school registration teacher.

"We have successfully passed the trial. Can we challenge a higher level of difficulty?"

The teacher in charge of registration was named Mr. Taylor. When he saw Alex and Tom approaching, he was about to give a few compliments. However, the first thing he heard was their request to challenge a higher level of difficulty. Mr. Taylor picked his ears, thinking he heard incorrectly.

"Do you want to challenge a higher level of difficulty?" His voice unconsciously rose several notches, and the surrounding teachers and classmates heard it.

Hearing Mr. Taylor's question, Alex nodded, "Yes, teacher, we want to challenge a higher level of difficulty."

After receiving a positive answer, Mr. Taylor became anxious. "The higher difficulty is still too much for you two. You've just passed the trial, and now it's time to take a good rest. As for the higher difficulty, wait until you form a team and gather a team of five before challenging it."

The implication was that Alex shouldn't be too ambitious. Although Mr. Taylor didn't know how Alex and Tom passed the novice trial, the more difficult abyss couldn't be challenged by just two people. It required a team with tacit cooperation and orderly division of labor.

Mr. Taylor was a pretty good person. He didn't ridicule them directly but tactfully persuaded Alex to give up the idea of challenging a higher level of difficulty. But Alex was firm and replied, "Teacher, I'm sensible. We have passed the novice trial and want to experience the more difficult abyss. Don't worry, teacher, I still have an escape scroll if I can't beat it, so my life will not be in danger."

After passing the novice trial, there would be no penalty for using the escape scroll. When Alex said this, Mr. Taylor no longer refused.

"Now that you have decided, I will no longer stop you, but you must remember to hold the escape scroll in your hands, and you must use it as soon as possible when you encounter danger."

Faced with Mr. Taylor's kindness, Alex nodded and accepted, "Understood."

Afterward, Mr. Taylor entered the information of Alex and Tom into the system. "Follow me."

After registering, Mr. Taylor led them to a blue portal. "The white portal is for first-timers; the default difficulty is easy. The blue portal can be challenged repeatedly. The lowest difficulty is normal. You only have one life. Are you sure you want to challenge a higher level of difficulty?"

Mr. Taylor asked again. Alex glanced at the S-level skills in his skill bar and nodded confidently, "I'm sure."

"Okay, then come here and choose the difficulty. Of course, you don't have to choose a higher level. Normal difficulty is already challenging enough for you."

Except for the novice trial, which is on easy difficulty, the abyss below level 20 has three difficulties: normal, difficult, and nightmare, as well as the most special hell difficulty. The abyss of Hell difficulty has unique characteristics. If not conquered within a certain time, the monsters inside may invade the real world. The difficulty of hell isn't something ordinary people can challenge, and the mortality rate is as high as 99%.

Before Mr. Taylor finished speaking, Alex had already chosen the difficulty and entered the abyss. The difficulty Alex chose was the hell difficulty, which no one had successfully challenged so far.

After choosing the hell difficulty, the blue portal began to slowly turn red, exuding waves of evil aura.

"No, he actually chose the hell difficulty!" Mr. Taylor was shocked and quickly reported the news to the principal.

After the principal got the news, he rushed to the portal without pause. Looking at the portal that exuded waves of evil aura, the principal looked very concerned.

"Evacuate the students in the school quickly and report this situation to the law enforcement team immediately!"

The surrounding teachers knew that the situation was urgent and joined the evacuation efforts. The law enforcement team responded quickly. In less than 2 minutes, a man carrying a long sword arrived at Principal Mark's side.

The man's name was Ethan Li, the deputy captain of the law enforcement team and a level 34 swordsman. Principal Mark saw him coming, clasped his fists, and said, "Captain Li, please help hold down the boss. After I clean up the other monsters, I'll assist you in defeating the boss."

Ethan Li nodded, a look of doubt in his eyes. "Someone challenged the hell difficulty and caused the abyss to riot in advance?"

"Yes, two students who have just awakened this year challenged the hell difficulty," Principal Mark explained, having just learned the details from Mr. Taylor.

"If they hadn't challenged the Hell Difficulty, the Abyss wouldn't have rioted for at least half a year."

Ethan Li found a chair, sat down, and said, "Sooner or later, as long as the projection of the devil in the abyss exists, it's always a time bomb."

Principal Mark sighed at Ethan Li's words. "Alas, it's not easy to eliminate the projection of the demon god. In the trial abyss of Tianfeng City, the Goblin Forest is the easiest. But who knew that in hell difficulty, there's actually the projection of the Angry Demon God Samael. That's the Angry Demon God; even a whole team of professionals with A-level talents might not defeat him."

After speaking, Principal Mark took out stones of different sizes from his pocket and placed them near the portal. Principal Mark's profession was an array mage, and his level was 32. The stones in his hands were all array plates, which had considerable lethality. Placing them near the portal was to cause significant damage when the monsters first appeared.

"Those two students won't be able to hold on for long. Once they die, the projection of the Angry Demon Samael will seize the opportunity to emerge. I'll be prepared first."

While Principal Mark was preparing, Alex and Tom had already appeared in the Goblin Forest on the Hell difficulty level. After entering the abyss, Alex frowned.

"What a bad smell."

The air was thick with the scent of sulfur and blood. Looking around, the lush woods had completely vanished, replaced by a fragment of ruins. This map should not be called Goblin Forest but the Scorched Earth of Purgatory.

Without the woods blocking their sight, a dark red goblin monster appeared before Alex's eyes.

**[Evil Blood Goblin]** lv8

**HP:** 5000

**Attack Power:** 80

**Defense:** 0

**Crazy Blood:** Increases attack speed by 50% after receiving damage.

The moment he saw the monster's attributes, Tom's pupils shrank. "What a perverted attribute."

Tom was currently at level 4, and as a shield warrior, all his attribute points were added to his physique. His health was only 1,100. Even if he reached level 8, he might not have 5,000 health points. This monster named Evil Blood Goblin could be a mini-boss in the novice trial. But in Hell difficulty, it's just a mob. With mobs so powerful, what kind of boss is there?

Tom thought of retreating and took out the escape scroll from his backpack. After seeing the words displayed on the scroll, Tom's heart sank.

"Alex, I just checked, and the escape scroll cannot be used." Tom's voice trembled.

"Don't worry, Tom, I'm here."

Alex was initially surprised when he saw the monster attributes, but when he saw the extra S-level skill in his skill bar, he regained his confidence.
