Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Chapter 209: Hooked On Speedrunning; Massive Disparity

The bell of the Dungeon Hall rang again. The students outside the Dungeon Hall had grown accustomed to it.

"Needless to say, it is Lin Moyu again."

"There must be a new record for the Fire God's Palace Hall dungeon. Someone go check it out."

"He's been raiding the dungeon so many times, getting more skilled and faster each time. He might even be able to break the 1-hour mark."

After the bell stopped ringing, someone got up, "I'll go take a look!"

He went inside. But after a long time, he still hadn't come out.

The people outside were puzzled, "Did something happen? Why hasn't he come out yet?"

"Not sure. Could it have been someone else than Boss Lin?"

"I'll go check."

Someone else went into the Dungeon Hall, but he didn't come out either, leaving the people outside even more curious about what was happening inside.

Then, the crowd walked in.

A batch of 'wooden stakes' appeared at the entrance of the Fire God's Palace Hall dungeon. Some were frozen in place, others had their eyes wide open, none able to believe their eyes.

Time: 38 minutes, 38 seconds.

"This time must have been deliberate."

"This time... is this really for a hell rank dungeon?"

"Even at ordinary rank difficulty, it wouldn't be this fast."

"I've been to the Fire God's Palace Hall before. Although this dungeon isn't big, but if you ran from one end to the other, it would still take about half an hour."

"Is it possible, did Boss Lin just sprint from start to finish?"

No one could fathom how Lin Moyu cleared the dungeon.

Following a slight fluctuation in space, Lin Moyu appeared outside the dungeon. Without caring about the reactions of the others, he re-entered the dungeon right away.

He discovered that speedrunning was more efficient. Although the EXP was slightly less than during a comprehensive raid, but he still got about 80% of the EXP, while nearly doubling his speed.

Using half the time to gain 80% of the EXP, anyone could understand this arithmetic. The only drawback was the fatigue from constantly running.

Lin Moyu decided to continue using the speedrun method to level up, as it was clearly more efficient.

The Dungeon Hall was filled with students, whose jaws were about to drop to the floor.

…

In the God Bai Courtyard, the mouths of Ning Tairan and Bai Yiyuan twitched.

Although Meng Anwen showed no reaction, but his twitching eyebrows revealed his inner turmoil.

On two screes, the Chuangshi Institute and Yanhuang Institute were still battling the Lava Giant, and it looked like the battle wouldn't end anytime soon. Meanwhile, Lin Moyu had already started a new speedrun.

Bai Yiyuan muttered, "This kid isn't satisfied with taking the limelight outside, he even has to take the limelight back at the academy. Can't he be a bit more low-key?"

Ning Tairan glanced at him peevishly, "You were much more high-profile in your youth. Whenever you accomplished something, you wanted the entire world to know."

Meng Anwen said, "This record... no one can break it."

Bai Yiyuan slapped his thigh, a look of Schadenfreude on his face, "That's natural. Don't you know whose student he is? When those kids from the two institutes come out, they'll probably end up crying!"

"However, it's good to take a setback or two. It'll keep them humble."

Ning Tairan narrowed his eyes, "Judging by the damage, it seems his skill's attack power is based on corpses."

Being a godly powerhouse, he quickly discerned the root of Lin Moyu's skill.

Bai Yiyuan made a sound of assent and said, "Indeed, and they have to be fresh corpses. Over time, the corpses will lose health, until they are rendered useless."

"There are also monsters like Elemental Sprites, which don't leave a corpse, they are also useless."

Ning Tairan said gravely, "Then when he reaches level 30, he can head to the level 35 Goblin Legion dungeon. The monsters there are plentiful, and they all leave corpses and provide pretty good EXP."

Ning Tairan knew all the dungeons in the Dungeon Hall like the back of his hand.

Meng Anwen laughed, "Old Bai has already made arrangements."

Ning Tairan looked at Bai Yiyuan, "You don't intend to let him level grind in the academy?"

Bai Yiyuan smiled and said, "The academy is a greenhouse; the flowers it nurtures are too fragile."

"Then are you planing…" Ning Tairan suddenly thought of something, "Are you planning to send him to that place?"

Bai Yiyuan nodded.

Ning Tairan's countenance changed greatly, "Are you insane? You only went there after the second class awakening, yet you want to throw the brat there when he's barely level 30."

Bai Yiyuan said bluntly, "He's already stronger than most level 40 high-level class users. Why shouldn't he go?"

"Besides, as he's my student, I'll teach him as I see fit, It's none of your concern, Old Ning."

Ning Tairan blew his top, "Fine, it's none of my concern. Do as you wish. Anyway, the brat won't actually die, and if dying once makes him open his eyes to reality, it won't be a bad thing."

Bai Yiyuan snorted, "Don't worry, my student won't die!"

...

Lin Moyu continued his speedrun spree.

With his previous experience, he was even faster this time.

He had a bunch of monsters drawn to the palace gardener, followed by a bout of explosions, then had corpses dragged to the Lava Giant, followed by another bout of explosions.

It looked like an operation lacking any finesse, but it was surprisingly effective.

The Dungeon Hall's bell continued to ring. The initially shocked students had already come back to their senses.

After being stimulated repeatedly, their nerves had become very resilient, and they had become immune to the bell's din. Even if they saw something extraordinary now, they wouldn't be too surprised.

Another new record for the Fire God's Palace Hall dungeon was set: 36 minutes, 58 seconds. That was more than a minute faster than the previous one.

Lin Moyu didn't waste a second. After he came out of the dungeon, he re-entered it right away. He was so fast that if you weren't paying attention, you might think it was an illusion.

While speedrunning, you shouldn't waste time.

Finally, a large group of people emerged from the dungeon. The two rivals, the Chuangshi Institute and Yanhuang Institute, exchanged glares.

The Knight leading the Yanhuang Institute, called Sun Zheng, was in high spirits. He was clad in top gold rank equipment, with the necklace, earrings, and ring being boss accessories. The Goblin King's Ring sparkled brightly on his finger.

He looked at the Chuangshi Institute's party team and said with a smile, feeling pretty good at this time, "We entered two minutes after you, but ended up coming out at the same time. We won this time."

The people of the Chuangshi Institute showed no reaction at that, making Sun Zheng feel strange.

Sun Zheng continued to say, "Fan Zhaoye, you're not going to deny it are you?"

Fan Zhaoye, the leader of the Chuangshi Institute's party, and Sun Zheng were old rivals.

Fan Zhaoye smiled faintly, "I won't deny it. However, there's a small detail you're missing. We spent a lot of time in the safe zone."

"I knew you were coming, so I prepared a surprise. Did you like it?"

At this time, Sun Zheng's complexion changed. He hadn't expected Fan Zhaoye to pull a move like that.

The timer for a dungeon won't start until you leave the safe zone. They had been played.

Sun Zheng snorted coldly, "Then let's look at the records and see who's ahead."

"Of course we have to look at the records. When the records are out, you won't be able to deny it, whether you like it or not." Fan Zhaoye was extremely confident, a calm and self-assured look on his face.

The two lifted their heads and looked at the light screen. Then, simultaneously, their expressions froze, as if struck by a petrification spell. Their teammates, puzzled, looked up, then fell into a state of bewilderment.

[Lin Moyu; level 28; 36 minutes, 58 seconds]

Lin Moyu's name shone brightly, the light so bright it nearly blinded them.

They worked themselves to the bone, utterly exhausted. But guess what? Someone cleared it in 36 minutes and 58 seconds, all by themself, and at level 28.

Meanwhile, they were at least level 35, fully equipped with top gold rank equipment, as well as boss accessories, as lavish as it came.

Regarding their results...

Their results were out.

Chuangshi Institute: 4 hours, 33 minutes, 26 seconds.

Yanhuang Institute: 4 hours, 33 minutes, 29 seconds. frёewebnoѵēl.com

A difference of three seconds; the Chuangshi Institute came narrowly out on top.

The Chuangshi Institute should have been happy, Fan Zhaoye should have been happy. But after seeing Lin Moyu's result, he couldn't bring himself to be happy.

Of course, he had heard of Lin Moyu's name. It had spread all over the world the past few days.

During the class user competition, Lin Moyu took first place in the level 20 grouping, in both the team competition and the individual competition. While in the unrestricted competition, he passed the fifth round, single-handedly defeating a Mage team of six level 50 class users.

Such results were something other class users wouldn't even dare to dream of.

Even though they were students of the Chuangshi Institute and Yanhuang Institute and prided themselves on being top geniuses, they all paled in comparison to Lin Moyu. The gap was just too large.

This was no longer something hard work could bridge, but was a disparity on a fundamental level.

Even if they were dissatisfied, they could only swallow it. Perhaps in the future, there would be a chance to turn the tables. But not now.

The disparity turned out being much bigger than anticipated—four-plus hours vs. 38 minutes; 12 people vs. 1 person.

Fan Zhaoye and Sun Zheng felt their faces burning with shame, and so did their teammates.

Some geniuses they were. An entire party couldn't measure up to one person, and that person was nearly 10 levels below them.

For the Chuangshi Institute, the joy of victory vanished, replaced by stinging embarrassment.

People outside the Dungeon Hall were peeking at them, adding to the humiliation.

Fan Zhaoye waved his hand, "Let's go!"

Sun Zheng also waved his hand, listless, "Let's go back to the institute."
