Chapter 722: Chapter 722: Reunion
Thanks to the full opening of the [Steps of Hades].
The Holy City’s Underworld (dungeon) has become a major leisure spot for the middle and upper-class individuals, as well as the Knight Regiment.
After all, many of the restrictions from the Holy City no longer apply inside the dungeon.
Enjoying this fleeting [freedom] can provide a highly efficient stress release, reducing the likelihood of self-degradation.
Han Dong also decided to hold the much-awaited gathering with his partners here.
Of course… the one paying would still be Dumps.
Han Dong originally intended to invite Diana as well, but considering Mia’s situation, he decided against it to avoid any trouble.
As for the situation on the [Gold Master] side, they needed to wait a while before they could meet and negotiate face-to-face.
With the preliminary rules of the Big Expedition about to be announced, the Gold Master was currently working closely with the Council, making intense preparations.
Han Dong, as the initiator of the gathering, arrived early at the dungeon area.
Before long, he stopped at a high-end bar named ‘Eye of Medusa’… the basic scale of the bar was even larger than many hotels.
In a place like the dungeon where building sizes are restricted, it was surprising to see a four-story building, and one that also had a relatively large area.

At the entrance, there were two Medusa ladies, with snakes as hair, beautiful faces, and curvy figures, serving as receptionists.
Apparently, these creatures were brought out from the Fate Space by the owner in exchange for points.
“This place has some charm… since Dumps is footing the bill anyway, we’ll settle for here.”
Han Dong, through a simple disguise, made himself look like an ordinary person of average height, while clearly displaying his Second Order Knight badge.
As Han Dong expressed his intention to enter the bar.
One of the Miss Medusas came forward immediately, her smooth green snake swaying beside Han Dong’s cheek, her movements slightly suggestive.
Clearly, in addition to providing regular bar services, this place also offered special stress-release activities.
“Sir Knight, may I ask if you have made a reservation in advance?”
“I’m sorry, but our bar has a system to ensure service quality and non-interference between customers. We only serve customers who have booked in advance so that we can make proper arrangements.”
Just at this moment.
Another guest appeared from behind Han Dong, handing the Miss Medusa a black card with dark gold edges, symbolizing the highest member status of this bar.
“Do you have any small private rooms available?”
The newcomer was none other than Dumps.
Even though there was still an hour before the scheduled gathering, Dumps had come to the dungeon early. He originally planned to buy some ‘Magic Crystal Stones’ in the black market.
However, as Dumps was passing this street, he unexpectedly spotted Han Dong at the entrance of the bar.
“Honored member, we don’t have many reservations today, there are small private rooms available… Please follow me.”
This was the difference in status.
Han Dong’s knight badge was of no use here.
“Nicholas, you really know how to choose a place… This bar has quite a reputation in the dungeon. The boss lady is directly under the protection of the ‘Night Watch’, and they offer the highest level of privacy protection for their customers.
Of course, they also provide many in-depth services. I assume you don’t need those.”
“Indeed, I don’t… As long as the place is private and high-quality, then this place will do, after all, you’re paying, Dumps.”
“Not a problem.”
After some time apart, Dumps was still the same.
A typical British gentleman with monocular bronze-framed glasses, a top hat and a silver-plated black wooden cane.
“You go ahead, I still need to buy some crystal stones… I’ve been working for the Great Demon Leader recently, and I’m drained every single day.”
With that, Dumps made a very tired gesture, lowered his hat brim and walked towards the black market.
“Dumps seems to have more secrets… I have to take this opportunity today to find out the talents that Dumps has been allocated.”
After declining Miss Medusa’s special service, Han Dong sent the location information to his partners.
The companions who hadn’t been seen for several months arrived one after the other.
Dumps, who arrived at the dungeon quite early, was the last one to arrive at the private room area, a protruding black crystal blood vessel slowly receding around his neck… as if he had just finished replenishing his energy.
After a special dungeon feast and the unique [Medusa Snake Wine] went down, everyone opened up and began to chat… after all, True Fate had passed, and the pressure in everyone’s hearts had been completely vented.
“Abe, have you ‘grown’ a bit?”
Here, growth does not refer to age, but to an overall enlargement.
Abe, who was previously around six feet tall, has now reached six feet and five inches, and his physique has also increased proportionally.
He appears to be moving towards the pattern of development of Behemoth the Leader.
The fluffy white hair remains unchanged, but there are now more noticeable dragon scale patterns.
“It’s a constitutional issue… and also, my first point of talent was allocated to [Dragon Clan], which indeed makes me look a bit bigger.”
“Huh? Dragon Clan?”
Han Dong immediately showed interest and took the opportunity to steer the conversation towards everyone’s growth system.
Abe considered his team mates as his own ‘family’, so he had nothing to hide.
“Yes, my Talent Tree has two development paths, [Dragon Clan] comes from the demons I absorbed.
The other [Ancient Ferocious Beast] is related to something within me.”
At this point, Han Dong once again clinked glasses with his companions, using the atmosphere to cut to the chase: “How about this, everyone discusses what talents they have chosen to develop?”
As the drunkenness rose, Abe’s personality began to become more apparent.
His thick arm draped over Han Dong’s shoulder, and his furry ears popped out of the white hair, expressing absolute approval of Han Dong’s suggestion.
“No problem, we’ve finally passed True Fate. We’ll make discussions about talents the main topic of this gathering… I heard that you, Nicholas, obtained [2] talent points at once, is that true?”
“Yes.”
“Then you must be the first to tell!”
“Okay, I go first, then Abe… and so we rotate.”
Han Dong immediately told everyone about the effect of his first-tier talent .
This passive talent that enhances reading ability and learning efficiency belongs to a kind of advanced talent.
It immediately aroused the interest of Dumps and even some envy.
“Abe, it’s your turn.”
“Mine is quite formidable… it’s a choice I made after much thought.”
Saying this, robust blood vessels surfaced on Abe’s body.
The whole person’s body weight, muscle, and skin structure all underwent subtle changes.
His white hair also grew more than ten centimeters.
His eyes gradually took on a pale yellow hue, the pupils slowly turned into vertical slits, forming a [Dragon Eye].
[Dragon Clan, First Tier]
“In a certain corner of the dragon world, there lives a tribe of humans with the bloodline of dragons. They have human intelligence and a body as strong as a dragon.”
Talent Effect: Dragon Tribe Gene level +1
Strength, Defense, Health limit, and Health recovery speed are all boosted. This talent can be enhanced with the level of the individual’s dragonization and the quality of the dragon blood.
The direction of demonization will also change directionally, with ‘Dragonize’ as the main factor.
“So powerful.”
Han Dong didn’t expect that the bit of dragon tribe that was mixed inside Count’s pet could become an important growth path for Abe in the future.
However, the ability to develop the [Dragon Clan] system is not unrelated to Abe himself… ordinary people certainly can’t control the Dragon Tribe.
