The upperclassman nodded and said directly, "Then I will take you there."

She had just taken a step forward when she stopped, turned back to look at Su Mu, and a hint of seriousness crept into her tone.

"What I just mentioned were the advantages of this place. It actually still has one drawback… This belongs to a level twenty medium-sized dungeon."

Because the number of monsters is too large, even for the normal difficulty, it requires at least five Dungeon Masters to join forces.

Given that you are a newcomer, a novice who has never cleared this dungeon, the required number of people might even increase.

However, the reason I recommended it to you is because it is currently the start of the semester, and quite a few people have already come here, so forming a team is not that troublesome."

Hearing this, Su Mu felt instead that this Lair was even more suitable.

How could this possibly be a drawback?

With so many monsters, farming them would be much faster.

The accumulation of momentum points would also be much quicker.

Furthermore, the team size requirement was not a problem for him at all… He had never planned to team up with others anyway.

"This is not a major issue," Su Mu said.

Seeing him say this, the upperclassman nodded, then led the way while introducing the details to him.

"Spider Nest Deep Valley has a total of twenty waves. The first to fourth waves are all normal level twenty monsters without much change in attributes, mainly consisting of various types of spiders. Ordinary spiders, jumping spiders, and venomous spiders appear in large numbers, but their individual strength is not high."

"You need to be a bit careful with the boss of the fifth wave, which is a Brood Mother Spider capable of summoning a large number of spiders. It must be dealt with in a short period of time, otherwise, after every interval, it will release a wave of small spiders. By then, with more and more of them, the situation will spiral out of control."

"The difficulty rises from the sixth to the ninth wave. The number of monsters more than doubles, and there are elite monsters. The elites are around level twenty-two, possessing skills like web entanglement and venom spitting, which are quite troublesome when combined."

"The boss of the tenth wave is a Web-Weaving Spider Queen, capable of large-scale web control. You need to be careful not to get entangled, though there are usually support types or fire-attribute members in the team who can counter it."

As the upperclassman introduced it, Su Mu listened and nodded while pondering another matter in his heart.

"Senior," he asked, "what are the attributes like for the Nightmare and Hell difficulties?"

The upperclassman paused and glanced at him.

"You are asking about Nightmare and Hell?"

Su Mu nodded.

Having just heard the upperclassman say that the first four waves were only level twenty normal monsters and the elites were around level twenty-two, he knew that the normal dungeon here did not pose much difficulty for him.

By extension, the difficult level wouldn't be too big either.

Therefore, he wanted to inquire about Nightmare and Hell.

Of course, the reason why he bypassed Normal and Difficult to ask directly about Nightmare and Hell had another reason… There was a limit to the number of entries allowed for the Lair Plaza.

No matter what difficulty or what kind of lair you fought, you could only choose it ten times a day.

The reason behind this was that the dungeon lairs here were not originally located in this place; they had been gathered here by certain special talents through special methods.

If someone constantly attacked the lairs, there was a high probability that it would cause the lairs to riot, or disrupt the energy space suppressing the locations of the lairs.

Therefore, restrictions were put in place.

This was also why in every city, entering a lair in such a Lair Plaza—which was clearly a public resource—required spending a lot of money on admission tickets.

And that was why more people went to explore wild lairs.

Because wild lairs did not have this restriction.

With only ten chances a day, Su Mu naturally wanted to spend every single one where it mattered most.

Hearing him ask this, the upperclassman's expression grew serious, carrying a hint of admonition in her tone.

"You'd better not try to challenge higher difficulties right off the bat. The lairs here are different from wild lairs, and also different from the lairs inside the Lair Plazas in cities. When the lairs here were relocated, basically all of them underwent level suppression."

She paused and continued, "Originally, the monsters' levels were calculated based on level thirty."

Even if they are suppressed to level twenty, although their level attributes have been suppressed, their mechanisms and intelligence cannot be suppressed.

Therefore, the lairs here are much stronger than standard lairs on the market.

This is also tailor-made for us Qingbei Academy students.

"Students from other schools can also apply to come here for lair challenges, but they usually find it very difficult to adapt. You must not treat the lairs here like those outside."

Su Mu didn't know about this yet. It was fortunate that the experienced upperclassman explained it to him.

"Thank you for the reminder, Senior," he said. "I know my limits, which is why I asked Senior about their attributes."

The upperclassman glanced at him, thought about it, and figured she would state these attributes so that Su Mu would give up on the idea.

Then she spoke.

"The first wave of monsters in the Nightmare difficulty is already level twenty-four."

If we really have to compare, it is equivalent to level twenty-six monsters in external Nightmare Lairs. Moreover, this is a medium-sized dungeon; not only in attributes, but its intelligence also far exceeds ordinary ones by over ten percent.

And even under the suppressed condition, an additional ten percent must be added.

"The final boss is directly comparable to a level thirty First-Transition."

She paused and looked at Su Mu.

"As for the Hell difficulty… the first wave is equivalent to level twenty-eight. I don't know the attributes of the final boss because I haven't fought it before. However, the approximate strength requires at least a full ten-person team of level twenty-five, and only the top-tier team of Qingbei Academy has a chance to pass it. Furthermore, it is extremely dangerous."

As she spoke, she searched for it and then transmitted the attributes to Su Mu.

Su Mu took a look.

A Combat Index of 1.42 million.

Seeing this number, Su Mu instead smiled.

Because although a combat value of 1.42 million was stronger than both Little Drill-Wind and the White Bone Demon, it could not compare to the Green Lion King.

The Green Lion King's base Combat Index was 1.54 million. Furthermore, this was just the base.

Coupled with the bonus of the Glory of Lion Camel Ridge, the amplification of monsters by the Southern Heavenly Gate anchor point, and the terrain bonus of the Sea of Corpses and Blood, the Green Lion King's actual combat power far exceeded 1.54 million. And since this was a Hell-tier lair and a medium-sized dungeon, another layer of actual combat power had to be added.

But how could the Green Lion King's actual combat power be merely around 1.5 million?

Therefore, he could completely take on a Hell-tier lair.

Su Mu put away the System Panel, and a resolution had already formed in his heart.
