With everything prepared, Joanna led the group to the teleport portal.
At the Abyss-tier dungeon's portal entrance, a large number of intermediate professionals had already gathered.
Some wore illusionary fashion skins, others were fully geared, and all of them carried an imposing presence.
These intermediate professionals were calm and composed, clearly older, most looking to be in their 30s or 40s.
When Joanna arrived with her group, all dressed in Divine and Demonic Academy uniforms, they immediately drew everyone's attention.
"That's the Divine and Demonic Academy freshman top student!"
Joey's eyes lit up.
He'd finally run into her.
But it was obvious she wasn't in the mood to chat, her gaze locked on the teleport portal as the last team vanished inside.
"What a shame."
Joey's face filled with regret.
He'd missed the chance to add Joanna as a contact, but he wasn't about to hold her up now and leave a bad impression.
She was going into this dungeon, and she'd come out sooner or later. He could wait here.
As for entering the dungeon himself... He wasn't in a hurry to die.
Abyss-tier dungeons were simply too rare. They were the kind that demanded lives as payment, which was why a single opening synced across more than ten thousand dimensions, just to increase the odds.
...
Inside the "Bloodstained City (Abyss-tier)" dungeon.
Joanna led the team inside, and the moment they entered, they found themselves unable to move.
They couldn't move, but there was no sense of danger either. This was common, the dungeon's opening story sequence.
Some dungeons offered hints this way.
And those hints were often critical.
Joanna focused immediately.
Very quickly, she realized they were viewing everything from a classic god's-eye perspective, standing in a world with extremely dense mass, similar to the Divine Battlefield.
On that battlefield, two entities were locked in combat.
One side was a flesh star, unimaginably massive, larger than anything Joanna had ever seen.
Opposing it was a human.
Despite having a normal human body, this man radiated terrifying power.
He held a bow in his hands, drew it back, and aimed at the flesh star.
At that moment, an overwhelming force surged around him, forming a phantom that spanned entire star systems.
The phantom looked like a god.
The arrow within that phantom was trained on the flesh planet.
Everyone's heart tightened.
"This looks like it's happening right now."
"Probably an emergency lockdown."
"So if no one clears the dungeon, those blood fragments might spread across the entire city."
"It might already be really bad."
People murmured their guesses, but they all understood what was happening.
What the dungeon showed likely occurred only hours ago, maybe even more recently.
The human Space Alliance had synchronized this dungeon across dimensions, pulling professionals from everywhere into a rescue effort.
The background scene continued.
The blood-red fragments hurtled toward Nebulous Star.
Nebulous Star clearly received the warning. As the fragments approached the planet, it unleashed massive-scale heavy weapons in a desperate bombardment.
But flesh pierced by a Mythic-level expert couldn't be stopped by missiles or nuclear weapons. The strikes couldn't even knock the fragments off course.
The planet's Starlord was only Level 80. There were fewer than a thousand Level 70 professionals and fewer than ten thousand at Level 60.
Faced with this situation, the Starlord made a decisive call.
There was only one power capable of stopping something like this.
