Seeing Dexter Luther, Seraphina Sullivan was in a foul mood.
The thought of this guy dragging her into this dungeon was infuriating.
She didn’t want to deal with him at all right now. She had altered her appearance, so she just pretended not to know him.
Over on his side, Dexter Luther scanned the area several times, a look of clear confusion and bewilderment on his face. He muttered to himself, "Strange... The teleportation was correct... Is Seraphina not here? Did I get it wrong? Is she really not a Player? Ugh, what a waste of effort. Too bad... Oh well, I’ll just help her later, after she becomes a Player."
Seraphina Sullivan fought the urge to roll her eyes. She focused, and a faint golden light flickered almost imperceptibly in her eyes.
She activated Eye of Resume.
[Name: Dexter Luther]
[Gender: Male]
[Level: Level 2]
[Professional Skills: Talent·Shield: Can rapidly reorganize any substance, including Energy, within perceptual range and transform it into a Shield form with absolute defensive properties. Duration and defensive strength are dependent on one’s own spiritual power.]
[Weaknesses: Extreme fear of arthropods and multi-legged insects.]
’He can instantly turn anything into a shield with absolute defense?’
Seraphina Sullivan suppressed some of her anger and calmly assessed his Ability.
’This Talent... has high potential. That idiot... I guess he has what it takes to be reckless.’
Seraphina sighed to herself. Dexter Luther’s Ability was actually quite formidable.
But this wasn’t the time to dwell on that.
She quickly composed herself and focused her attention on the most urgent matter at hand.
She needed to check the mission for the Petrification Apocalypse dungeon that Dexter Luther had forced her into.
She focused her mind and summoned the system interface, which only the Player themself could see.
She carefully read the mission description.
However, the contents of the interface made Seraphina Sullivan furrow her brow.
[Main Mission 1: Survive for seven days in the "Petrification Apocalypse" dungeon.]
[Reward: Return to the real world after the mission ends.]
’Only one mission?’ Seraphina’s heart sank.
This was too unusual.
Based on her previous experience and knowledge of the "Disaster Game," dungeon missions usually included main, side, and even hidden quests, providing multiple ways to obtain rewards and information.
A mission structure this singularly focused often meant an extreme situation.
It definitely didn’t mean the dungeon was easier. On the contrary, this was more like an extremely dangerous sign.
The difficulty of this dungeon was likely so high that the system considered merely surviving to be the absolute limit for a Player, making any other objectives unnecessary!
An intense sense of crisis instantly replaced her earlier annoyance with Dexter Luther.
This "Petrification Apocalypse" was probably far more terrifying than its name suggested.
’I have to get my hands on any power that can increase my chances of survival, right now!’
Without a moment’s hesitation, Seraphina Sullivan chanted silently in her mind:
"Activate Worker Talent!"
[DING! Talent awakening!]
The system prompt responded to her call.
[DING! Awakening successful!]
