People at Sea: I Rely on Hints to Become a Big Shot

When Shen Jue woke up, she found herself adrift on the vast ocean. Beneath her was a small wooden raft, and in her hand, a fishing rod. Feeling utterly bewildered, Shen Jue looked at the boundless ...

Chapter 115 The Divine Deer Reunited (2/2)

But if you think about Shen Jue's temperament and personality carefully, then forget it. It's a deer that doesn't compete with the world, it doesn't have such great ambitions or aspirations, it's good for it to stay in its own Divine Deer Palace for the rest of its life.

Thinking of this, Shenlu wanted to say goodbye to Shenjue, but when she looked up, she found that Shenjue was no longer there and she didn't know where he had gone.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Shen Jue's presence was no longer felt in this instance. This guy truly came and went without a trace, gathering enough materials and then disappearing.

Fortunately, the curse card has been lifted, and it feels completely relaxed now. Given the right opportunity, it can finally go out and play. As long as players continue to grow stronger, the game system will optimize for them, and then it will be able to go out and play too.

Outside of the dungeon, Shen Jue, who had reaped a good harvest of Battlefield Tokens, immediately exchanged all of them for gold materials.

There are a total of 15 rare materials, and the Battlefield Tokens are running low, with only 3,000 remaining.

But it's okay, we can just use battlefield tokens again when we run out.

The most urgent task is to become stronger. Last time she made a defensive set, this time she can make equipment with attack, speed, and agility attributes. Making an extra set of equipment with these attributes as a backup might come in handy someday.

After this experience with the normal dungeon, she gained a general understanding of her own abilities and knew where her limits lay.

These regular versions of the dream beasts are no challenge for her at all.

She needs to tackle more challenging elite dungeons. So what if it's dangerous? At least she'll know some information that others don't, right? If she makes good use of this information, she won't be completely lost when she gets to the dungeon.

Switching to the instance page, Shen Jue decisively chose the elite instance.

The elite dungeons with mission-based gameplay are actually quite interesting.

Let her try and see what kind of difficult problem could stump those skilled young experts.

Elite dungeons are not as complicated as regular dungeons, where you need to select again after entering.

There's no need to choose; as long as she's not in a party, entering this instance means she's a solo player, and she'll be teleported directly.

Therefore, she was unaware that her record for quickly soloing normal dungeons had been made it onto the game's leaderboard.

Since she is currently in the middle of completing the dungeon, she has not received any notification from the game system.

Her ranking on the chat interface once again caused a huge uproar.

[66th District & Will Immediately: What kind of operation is this? So fast to solo a normal dungeon?]

[63rd District & Zhang Yang: They actually cleared it in just six days, 3 hours, 16 minutes, and 28 seconds? A normal dungeon, without eating or drinking—is that even humanly possible?]

[69 & Zhang Youyou: We underestimated the number one on the list before. What Lu Qingyuan said is true.]

He had challenged Lu Qingyuan before, but those days were best left unsaid; he had lost miserably back then.

He originally thought that he couldn't beat Lu Qingyuan, but he should be able to beat Shen Jue, the top-ranked player, who was a woman.

Unexpectedly, Lu Qingyuan seemed to know what he was thinking and said, "If you can't even beat him, then don't even think about challenging Shen Jue." Even he couldn't beat Shen Jue.

Later, Zhang Youyou refused to believe in bad luck and waited until his injury healed before challenging Shen Jue. However, the game system showed that the area where the opponent was located was not suitable for entering the arena, and asked him to wait.

And so we waited, and now we're here.

Now, after this solo dungeon run, many players understand that the game system's ranking of strength is accurate, and Shen Jue is indeed number one.

If you want to challenge Shen Jue, first try to achieve the same dungeon record as Shen Jue. If you don't have the strength, don't go and humiliate yourself.

The top players in the fifth region are mostly concerned about rankings and winning or losing. Losing is a small matter; losing face and the reputation of their region is a big deal.

More importantly, all sorts of people participate in the ring challenge. Don't forget, while you can't kill in the ring, you can't seriously injure others either.

Getting injured in a world where the rules of the game can change at any moment is tantamount to courting death.

Those who are stronger understand this point better.

Therefore, the most important thing is to ensure that your ranking does not drop, either by going to the island or by farming dungeons, and by seizing every opportunity to improve your strength.

In the chat area after the server merge, many players are speculating whether Shen Jue will go to farm elite dungeons.

After a while, some of the top-ranked players spoke up.

[63rd District & Shuya: The success rate of Shen Jue farming elite dungeons has reached 99%.]

[68th District & Zhang Xiaofeng: How did you know? What if they've already run the normal dungeon again?]

[63rd District & Shuya: To clear the normal dungeon, you only need a certain number of Battlefield Tokens. Someone previously tested this; as long as you have over 100,000 Battlefield Tokens, you've cleared it.]

[63rd District & Shuya: The conditions for clearing this level aren't exactly difficult, but they're not easy either. Currently, even the top-tier team players take at least ten days to speedrun it.]

Two weeks ago, before the servers were merged, Shen Jue already had 100,000 Battlefield Tokens. Back then, how many of you could have done that? Now, two weeks later, Shen Jue's solo dungeon completion time has been so much shorter—I don't need to elaborate on the significance of that achievement!

[72nd District & Han Shuo: To put it bluntly, this normal dungeon is just a standard for Shen Jue to test his strength. It is very likely that it is the minimum standard. Once he has been tested enough, he will move on to the elite dungeon.]

For her, obtaining gold materials from regular dungeons was just a matter of going in once; there was no real danger. Perhaps, if we wait a little longer, we'll see gold equipment for sale in the shop.

[66th District & Zhao Keke: Waaaaah! After seeing Shen's dungeon clearing record, I'm once again bowing down in awe. Her skill is simply godlike for solo players; I can't even catch up! I lament every day that I'm just a useless nobody.]

[66th District & Zhang Mingming: What are you talking about, ranking in the top three in solo dungeons? If you're trash, then what are we, the group players? Just scum?]

[District 69 & Wang Yinuo: Heh! I hate you people who are clearly very strong but still come to Versailles. I'm tired, just let this world end already!]

[69th District & Yang Cheng: Other players, please don't mind the person above. Players in our 69th District are very friendly.]

Afterwards, the chat conversation turned to how long it would take Shen Jue to complete the game.

After all, if one person clears the dungeon, the entire region benefits. The danger level of the elite dungeon after clearing it will be greatly reduced, and it will be similar to the normal dungeon. You can interrupt the dungeon progress at any time and quit at any time.

Therefore, many people are still hoping that Shen Jue will clear the game quickly.

Shen Jue, who was the subject of much anticipation, now fell silent as he looked at the dark forest before him.

The prompts are all a series of question marks followed by the sentence "Unknown error".

Shen Jue circled the dark forest and finally confirmed that everything here except for her had come to a standstill.

This is a bit outrageous. Shen Jue thought of many possibilities. The current situation might be due to a game bug. He even wondered if the elite dungeon was originally designed this way, with the still dark forest being the first level.

After all, the previous breakthrough of the battlefield realm was an illusion, so the fact that this instance is now frozen doesn't seem like such a big deal.

Shen Jue considered all the possibilities and solutions, but she never expected that her current situation would be due to a strong complaint from the dream beasts in the ordinary version.

To maintain fairness in the normal dungeons, the game system temporarily banned her from entering them. Even so, the dream beasts persisted, strongly demanding that the game system increase their overall strength. However, this request was rejected by the game system, which argued that increasing their strength would be unfair to ordinary players.

The game system had to appease these dream beasts, who were suffering from severe psychological trauma, to keep them satisfied and prevent them from going on strike in a fit of anger. It also had to punish Shen Jue without leaving a trace, so that Shen Jue wouldn't find out.

Finally, the game system locked Shen Jue in a dark room, and only then were the dream beasts satisfied.
