In the Valley of the Dead.

Twinkle Rose and the others, who were still cleaning up the loot in the valley, were entering the region with eight caves.

They were used to the pile of glowing equipment.

No one was as excited as before. After all, these loot were not theirs.

Twinkle Rose sighed and prepared to pick up a Bronze equipment from the ground.

At that moment, she suddenly blacked out.

An ear-piercing reminder sounded.

"Ding!"

"An unknown powerful existence has descended nearby. You are suppressed by its aura and thus received the following debuff: -90% HP, -90% Attack, -90% Defense, -100% Movement Speed…"

As the voice sounded, their bodies froze.

They realized that they could not move at all.

Moreover, even their attributes had fallen to the limit at this moment.

"What happened?"

"What happened?"

Twinkle Rose used her lively eyes to survey her surroundings. However, her vision was blocked, making it impossible to see her surroundings.

"Could something have happened in the valley?"

The Knight player in the team wondered.

Another person answered, "It must be!"

"This isn't good. The leader is still farming monsters. He must have encountered something."

Super Rich quickly opened the team channel and said, "Leader, we can't move. Is everything okay over there? We're all worried about you."

"Who's worried about him? Don't talk nonsense, you bootlicker."

Twinkle Rose grumbled, but she was also thinking about what had happened. She also wanted to know what had happened to Lorne.

...

In the deepest part of the valley.

The same notification sounded in the hall.

Feeling his own condition, Lorne was stunned.

He could not understand what was happening.

An existence that could instantly make him lose all attributes with just its aura. Could it be that a god had descended?

Or rather, the guy hiding in the spatial node?

That was possible.

To be summoned so secretly, he was definitely not an ordinary existence.

Just as he was thinking this,

suddenly!

Flames burst forth.

Five meters up, the flames that had already been extinguished suddenly ignited again.

But this time, it was not dark green flames.

It was the even more peculiar black!

The light emitted by these black flames was very faint, but at the same time, it made one feel an intense chill. Almost the moment it appeared, the entire hall's temperature fell to a freezing point.

"Puny human…"

An icy female voice sounded in the hall, bringing with it the pressure of a superior being, and an aura that made people not dare to look up.

Lorne trembled slightly. It was not because he was afraid, but because he was not accustomed to the sudden drop in temperature. After all, he was a player, and death was not the most terrifying thing.

The moment he heard the voice, Lorne looked up.

In the next moment, his pupils dilated several times.

He was shocked by the scene before him.

It was because Lorne saw a hideous dragon head. The fangs in it were as thick as his entire body. Two scarlet eyes stared at him, as if they wanted to look at him from head to toe.

Giant Dragon!

A black Giant Dragon!

It was a hundred meters long and covered the entire hall. In the dark shadows, huge dragon wings could be seen waving.

"You're strange…"

"Despite such weak strength, you can actually summon so many strange creatures. Looks like you have a huge secret on you."

A hint of curiosity appeared in the black dragon's eyes. It seemed to be very interested in Lorne's ability to summon strange creatures. It said in a proud and cold female voice, "In that case, I, the Dragon of Darkness, Doris, will give you a chance to join the Dark Legion. I will promise to make you a powerful Dark Summoner!"

"Ding!"

"System Notification: Dragon of Darkness, Doris, invites you to defect to the Dark Faction and promises to grant you the hidden class [Dark Summoner]. Do you agree?"

"System Notification: After agreeing, you will automatically join the Dark Faction and be despised and hunted by all the Light Faction!"

"System Notification: The Dragon of Darkness, Doris, is extremely savage. If she hears any defiant answer, you will be brutally killed by her! Please make a decision carefully!"

A series of notifications appeared.

However, Lorne felt a headache. He had been doing well in the human faction. Not only did he have so many powerful pets, but he had also formed a relationship with the Light Priestess, Leisha.

He was about to receive the reward when he suddenly got forced to defect and join the dark side?

Wasn't this too much?

To be honest, Lorne did not like the style of the Dark Faction.

Thinking about the scene he saw when he entered the Valley of the Dead, it was unbearable.

If he joined the Dark Faction, wouldn't he be surrounded by disgusting monsters all the time?

No.

Absolutely not!

Lorne did not want to be alone in that situation.

However!

He did not dare to reject her directly.

The system notification said very clearly that as long as he rejected her, he would definitely be harmed by Doris.

If he was killed by the black dragon with a single slap, he might fail the dungeon mission and even fail the mission given to him by Leisha.

This was too great a loss for him to bear.

He could only stall for time.

He only hoped that the leader of the Light Faction would discover the Dragon of Darkness who had intruded into the territory of the Empire and rush here to save him.

"A rare hidden class?"

In the meantime, Lorne checked the benefits.

The result was indeed attractive.

This was a rare hidden class in the Summoner series.

The class effect was very powerful. The skills were also several times stronger than ordinary Summoners, or even ten times as much.

If not for the Monster Merging Simulator in his hand, he might have really agreed to the other party's request. It was just that the bonus of a hidden class was too tempting for a player.

"Human, don't challenge the dragon's patience. Make your choice quickly!"

The Dragon of Darkness, Doris, said impatiently. Its huge eyes emitted a cold killing intent, as if it would kill Lorne if he did not answer in the next second.

Lorne frowned and smiled bitterly.

It seemed that he was really going to die today.

Forget it, so be it.

It was impossible to join the dark side.

After all, he was a young man filled with righteousness!

Lorne made up his mind. He stared helplessly at Doris who was about to erupt and quietly waited for death to arrive.

But at that moment…

Buzz—

An incomparably brilliant light descended into the hall, illuminating everything with a holy aura.
