My war boots crunched against the ice as I slowly walked through the hall while examining my surroundings. Considering that this map was hidden deep beneath the ground, the mobs here could be way beyond our ability to fight. For example, a Level 180 common mob would easily wipe the floor with us. At any rate, we wouldn’t know until we actually encountered one.

Lin Yixin was also watching her surroundings with wary eyes. Some time later, she ran up to me and said, "Lu Chen…"

"Hmm?"

"You’d better protect me if a high-level mob pops out..."

"I will, don’t worry!"

I swung the Purgatory Sword to emphasize my point before turning toward the front again. The Arctic Temple wasn’t far away now, and the entrance was a dark, icy cave mostly covered up by wind and snow. When we got close, we saw flights of stairs leading toward the bottom.

……

The moment I planted my foot on the stairs, I immediately received the system notice—
