85: Another SSS-level!

Old Qin was trembling all over with excitement; he had to lean against the table just to stay on his feet.

"Old Qin, are these two books very famous?" Lin Zhan asked curiously, seeing him lose his composure like this.

"Famous doesn't even begin to cover it! These are quite simply the two most important treasures in the entire Egyptian mythological system!" Old Qin's voice wavered with excitement.

"Legend has it that the necromancer black scripture is the codex used by Anubis, the God of Death, to record and judge the souls of the deceased! Whoever possesses this book can command the underworld and become the King of the Dead!"

"And the sun gold scripture is the sacred text used by Ra, the Sun God, to create and protect all things in the world! Whoever possesses this book can wield the light and become a deity among men!"

"These two books—one representing the end and the other representing rebirth—together constitute the core cycle of life and death in Egyptian mythology!"

"I never expected that we would actually see these two legendary holy relics with our own eyes! This... this is simply the greatest discovery in the world of archaeology—no, in all of human history!"

Old Qin's words left everyone in the Command Center deeply shocked once again.

They looked at the two ancient books on the screen, which were emitting different glows, and their eyes became incredibly fervent.

They knew that these two books were not just powerful game items.

They represented a divine power that transcended mortality!

And Dragon Country already held this power in its hands!

_____

Just as everyone was still immersed in the immense shock of obtaining two SS-rank mythological items...

A cold, grand, and completely emotionless mechanical notification rang out in the minds of everyone across the world!

[dungeon settlement beginning...]

[dungeon No. 2 'Curse of the Pharaoh King' has been successfully cleared!]

[Dragon Country Assault Team has completed multiple hidden achievements: 'Seeker of Truth', 'Passer of the Trial of God', 'Terminator of the Undead'...]

[Dragon Country Assault Team successfully killed D-rank Boss 'The Faceless One · Hound of the Pharaoh' (Global First Kill)!]

[Dragon Country Assault Team successfully killed A-rank Final Boss 'The Immortal Pharaoh · Sekhmet' (Global First Kill)!]

[Comprehensive evaluation in progress...]

[Congratulations to the Dragon Country Assault Team for obtaining the final evaluation: SSS (Beyond the Limit)!]

Boom!!!

When the three golden letters "SSS" appeared on the live broadcast screens of every country in the world...

The entire world seemed to have been put on mute.

After a brief dead silence, there was a total eruption of noise, like a landslide or a tsunami!

National Destiny Operations Center of Dragon Country.

"SSS! It's another SSS!"

"Hahahaha! I knew it! I knew that kid Wang Yi would never let us down!"

Li Guodong jumped straight out of his chair in excitement. He pumped his fists and laughed so hard he couldn't close his mouth, the wrinkles on his face smoothing out.

"Good! Excellent!"

Although Lin Zhan didn't lose his composure like the other man, his bloodshot eyes and slightly trembling shoulders betrayed the extreme turbulence of his inner excitement.

Twice in a row!

Two consecutive SSS-rank evaluations!

This was unprecedented in the history of the national destiny arena!

Dragon Country had created a miracle once again!

"Comrade Su Yuan!" Lin Zhan spun around suddenly and grabbed Su Yuan's shoulders, shaking them vigorously. His usually stern face broke into a brilliant, heartfelt smile. "Beautifully done! This time, you deserve the primary credit!"

He knew that if Su Yuan hadn't spent everything he had to exchange for that "Spacetime Disruptor" at the last moment, and if he hadn't provided Wang Yi with those expensive Holy Enchantment Scrolls time and time again...

The outcome of this battle would definitely not have been like this.

"The Chief overpraises me." Su Yuan smiled modestly, feeling a bit dizzy from Lin Zhan's shaking. "This was all won by the soldiers on the front lines risking their lives. I merely did my part."

Despite his modest words, Su Yuan was ecstatic in his heart.

His personal points were all spent, but in exchange for an SSS-rank evaluation and another leap forward for Dragon Country, this deal was an absolute steal!

...Meanwhile.

The White House, Underground Command Center, Lighthouse Country.

The atmosphere was as oppressive as a tomb.

The Blonde Director stared blankly at the three piercing golden "SSS" letters on the screen, feeling as if his heart were being squeezed by an invisible giant hand, making it almost impossible to breathe.

Behind him, his staff and generals were all ashen-faced with hollow eyes, as if their souls had been sucked out.

"Another... another SSS..."

The Blonde Director's lips trembled as he muttered to himself.

"Why... why is it their Dragon Country again?"

Smash!

He suddenly slammed the coffee cup in his hand onto the floor!

Scalding coffee splashed all over his trousers, but he didn't feel the slightest bit of burning pain.

Because his entire being had been completely submerged in a bone-chilling cold and endless despair.

In the first dungeon, Dragon Country got an SSS; though they were shocked, they could still comfort themselves by saying it was "good luck" or "dumb luck."

But now, in the second dungeon, Dragon Country had taken another SSS!

Once is luck, but what about twice?

This could no longer be explained by luck!

This meant that the strength of Dragon Country's team had completely and utterly surpassed that of Lighthouse Country!

A gap!

An insurmountable, chasm-like gap now lay between the two countries!

"It's over..." a white-haired general sat slumped powerlessly in his chair, his voice full of dejection. "We... can no longer catch up..."

Yes, they couldn't catch up.

From the last SSS evaluation, Dragon Country had obtained the "T-Virus Perfect Version Serum," which directly allowed their soldiers to lead the world by an entire era in terms of physical fitness.

What about this time?

What kind of heaven-defying reward would Dragon Country receive for this SSS evaluation?

Even more powerful genetic technology? Or black technology from outer space?

They didn't dare think about it, nor could they imagine it.

They only knew that from today onwards, the structure of this world was going to change completely.

Lighthouse Country's status as the world hegemon, maintained for nearly a century, would collapse and shatter into pieces before those three golden "SSS" letters!
