Awakening The Weakest Talent: Only I Level Up

Chapter 429 The World-Stage Secret Realm

In his dream, Lu Yu saw the Death Spirit Dragon again in the darkness.

At that moment, the Death Spirit Dragon in front of Lu Yu was lying on the ground with its eyes closed.

It seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

Lu Yu walked over and saw the huge dragon's body. Its head alone was much bigger than Lu Yu's entire body!

"So, is this considered sealing it?"

Lu Yu murmured. He wasn't too sure about what was happening in front of him, but he was likely in the place where the Death Spirit Dragon was sealed, inside Lu Yu's arms.

Outside the darkness, Lu Yu was lying on the operating table and having his wounds slowly heal.

In the operating room, Xu Yuan and Wang Meng stood guard and did not take a single step outside.

While in the outside world, the upper house had already begun sweeping up the aftermath. The fire had been put out, and everyone was trying their best to search for anything useful in the ruins.

Soon, the ruins would be flattened and rebuilt. They needed to find any equipment or materials that hadn't been burned.

A large group had already gathered at the lower house's teleportation portal. They were all waiting to enter the upper house.

However, it was impossible for them to enter the upper house, no matter how long they stayed.

The upper house had always been a strictly managed place, with rarely any outsiders entering.

Now that the upper house had suffered heavy losses and the disaster was over, it was even harder to let more people into the upper house. If there were someone like Duan Zhenglin in the crowd, it would be troublesome, to say the least.

The upper house could not stop the infiltration of outsiders when it was running perfectly. Now that it was heavily damaged, there were probably even more loopholes, making monitoring even more challenging.

Therefore, the upper house was in a closed state.

The people gathered at the teleportation point were basically reporters. There was no need to greet these people, as they had already broadcast their most important news.

Since the news of the upper house's disaster was broadcast live, the upper house had been the number one hot topic in the entire Freedom Federation.

Although the disaster was over, the heat of the discussion hadn't lowered, as most of the audience was still looking forward to the follow-up.

If anyone could go in for an interview at this time, they would be the biggest winner of all the media companies.

Thus, it was impossible for the upper house to open up. At least, they had to wait until the reconstruction was completed before they were open to inviting guests in.

In the Dean's office at the upper house, Jiang Lengyue was handling her work seriously. She had to personally plan the reconstruction of the upper house, which was very exhausting.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Jiang Lengyue's assistant walked in and stood before her.

"The fire has been completely put out, and the inspection work has been completed. We can start rebuilding."

Jiang Lengyue stopped what she was doing and lifted her head to look at her. "Then let's follow this plan."

As she spoke, she pushed the documents onto the table.

The assistant took the document and nodded slightly. "I'll go and assign the task now."

"By the way, Dean, the world-staged secret realm has opened. The Lionheart Empire and the Stellaris Autonomous Zones are ready to enter. We should get ready as well."

Jiang Lengyue suddenly furrowed her brows and asked, "You mean the ancient ruins?"

"You're correct; that world-staged secret realm. It's ranked third in difficulty, making it a disaster-level dungeon."

Jiang Lengyue let out a long sigh. Secret realms or dungeons were divided into levels, with Hell being the most difficult, Nightmare second, and Disaster third.

Secret realms were fundamentally different from dungeons. Secret realms had vast terrains, whether they were continents or islands. They occupied a huge area, and people could set up long-term strongholds there.

Dungeons were different. Dungeons were usually smaller in size and used more for clearing stages. At the end of the dungeon, the people inside usually encounter a powerful boss.

These two were completely different, but it was hard to say which one was better. The duration of clearing a dungeon was short, and the dungeon clearer was bound to encounter a boss that dropped high-quality items or equipment.

Secret realms, on the other hand, were more focused on exploration. If the explorers were lucky, they might encounter a boss they could kill. They might return empty-handed after killing a few small fries if they were unlucky.

The most important thing was that the terrain was complex and varied in a secret realm. It was not entirely impossible to encounter dozens of bosses simultaneously.

The most important thing about secret realms was that they contained abundant resources, which could provide long-term benefits.

Lu Yu's Featherwing Club had established a stronghold in one such secret realm.

Therefore, the upper house wouldn't miss the opening of a secret realm unearthed from an ancient ruin.

The opening of ancient ruins was random and difficult to determine. However, once it appeared, everyone wanted to enter and get a share of the loot.

"Of course, we have to enter the secret realm. That's for sure. The problem is, who should we send?"

"This ancient ruin is a world-staged secret realm," the secretary added. "It's a secret realm that can be entered from three different regions. Back then, we made it a rule that only young people under the age of 24 could enter."

Jiang Lengyue nodded. "That's right. The rules are as such. The purpose is to give talented newcomers more room for development."

"By the way, when will the entrance passageway close?"

"About a week later," the secretary replied after a moment of thought.

"Alright then. Our academy will also send a few people. In a week's time, Lu Yu will definitely be able to recover."

The secretary nodded with a smile. She knew that Lu Yu would, of course, be on the list.

"Alright, you can go back to your work."

"Alright."

The secretary turned around and left.

Jiang Lengyue sat on the chair, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

She was starting to hesitate, as the secret realm was a place where all types of people would be.

The remnants of the Truth Department might also be among them.

No, they will be there!

If their initial target had been the dragon's soul, their target would definitely be Lu Yu now that he has sealed it inside him.

Those damn reporters were the worst! The scene of Lu Yu sealing the Death Spirit Dragon was broadcast!

At the thought of this, Jiang Lengyue was so angry that she clenched her fist and slammed it on the armrest!

"What's done is done..."

Jiang Lengyue didn't overthink it as it was useless even if she didn't want Lu Yu to enter the secret realm. After obtaining the hero medal, he had his own right to speak up. If Lu Yu were determined to join, she wouldn't be able to stop him.

At that moment, in the operating room, Lu Yu slowly opened his eyes while he lay on the operation table. What entered his eyes was a dazzling ring of light.

He slowly sat up and moved his arms, feeling refreshed.

After lying in bed and sleeping for a day and a night, he finally felt he was full of energy.

Seeing that Lu Yu had woken up, Xu Yuan and Wang Meng quickly came over.

"You're awake?"

"How do you feel? Is there anything wrong you feel with your body?"

Lu Yu jumped down from the operating table.

"Why are you all so worried? I'm not that weak."
