With a flash of white light, Wang Ming appeared at the entrance to the secret realm.

"System notification: You have left the secret realm. Rank A mission - Purify the Secret Realm reset."

"Warning: Due to force majeure, you are about to be disconnected from the server. Please exit the game within 10 seconds. If you do not exit within 10 seconds, you will be forcibly kicked out of the game."

With 10 seconds left, Wang Ming breathed a sigh of relief and then exited the game.

As soon as he exited the game, Wang Ming was helped by his parents to the bathroom. Looking at his father giving him a bath, Wang Ming wanted to call out "Dad".

No matter how hard Wang Ming tried to open his mouth, he couldn't make a sound.

"Sigh, it still doesn't work. I feel much better than before." Wang Ming was somewhat discouraged.

What Wang Ming didn't know was that although he didn't make a sound, his lips trembled slightly when he tried to open his mouth.

Wang Ming was oblivious, and Wang Gang, who was massaging Wang Ming's back, also didn't notice...

"Welcome to the Metaverse, have a great time playing the game." Back in his game pod, Wang Ming re-entered the game.

Then they looked at the loot from the secret realm.

Although he only cleared one level of the secret realm, Wang Ming killed a boss and five or six elite monsters, reaping considerable rewards.

There are 2 pieces of equipment with a three-star rating, and as many as 4 pieces of equipment with a two-star rating.

"Wow, this shield is pretty powerful. After the conversion, it adds 60 points of defense and 300 points of health."

When Wang Ming saw the attributes of the withered wood shield, he was genuinely shocked. "Hehe, the value of this shield should be about the same as the sword-drawing technique I obtained before."

The remaining 2-star equipment had fewer attribute modifiers and lower stats than the 3-star equipment, so Wang Ming didn't bother to look at them.

Besides the equipment, Wang Ming also had a skill book and a black bag in his backpack.

Wang Ming had already obtained this black bag twice. It was a 1x5 storage bag, and he used it, which increased his backpack space from 25 slots to 30 slots.

Wang Ming then looked at the skill book.

slash

Required profession: Ruler

...

Wang Ming had browsed Yuanyu's job descriptions when he was setting up a stall.

In the Elemental Realm, all professions start with only one skill; the initial skill of the Commander is called Shield Charge.

The damage of Shield Charge is extremely low, but the Overlord is not a damage-dealing class and does not care about damage. In addition to the damage, Shield Charge can also stack 30 taunt points on the target, making it a skill for the Overlord to pull monsters.

However, Shield Charge has a 5-second cooldown. If the damage output of the DPS class is too high, or there are too many monsters, or the healing output of the healer is too high, it may lead to an aggro (OT) situation.

In this situation, if the ruler has other skills, they can better hold the monsters and reduce the pressure on the team, which is crucial for both attacking monsters and leveling up.

"The skills of a ruler should be worth some money too." Wang Ming opened his friend list and found Cao Cao from the Three Kingdoms period.

At this time, Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms was still online, so Wang Ming immediately began to contact Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms.

"System notification: Your message failed to send because you are in an area where you cannot receive messages."

"Uh, what the heck? Why did it fail to send... Where has Boss Cao gone off to party again?" Wang Ming looked at the system notification and was speechless.

"Forget it, if I can't get in touch with them, I can't get in touch with them. But this secret realm is a good place. I'm level 7 now, and the secret realm has been reset. I can go in and grind it again. Even if I can't clear it, I can still steal a lot of attributes."

Wang Ming closed the chat interface and was about to kill the few wandering demonized treants in front of him to open the secret realm, but suddenly, one figure after another appeared in front of Wang Ming.

"Boss, this damn secret realm is no place for humans. The monsters inside are way stronger than those outside."

"Yes, those monsters come in groups. Several times, I almost couldn't hold them back. And the Demon Tree King on the first floor is also ridiculously strong. Even with my defense of 90 points, I couldn't withstand it."

......

These people were Cao Cao's team from the Three Kingdoms period. As soon as they appeared, they started complaining. Hearing their conversation, Wang Ming realized that they had also entered the secret realm.

"Have you all entered a secret realm?" Seeing that the others hadn't noticed him, Wang Ming had no choice but to speak first.

"who."

Hearing Wang Ming's words, the group was startled, and then when they saw Wang Ming, a look of surprise flashed across their faces.

"So you're a young man. You also know about the secret realm?"

"Yes, I killed a giant carnivorous plant boss and got a quest item, which triggered the quest in the secret realm."

Wang Ming did not hide anything and told the others about his entry into the secret realm.

"Is that so? To be honest, young man, we also obtained an item called the Heart of the Dead Tree King after killing the Dead Tree King, and then we received the quest."

"But once we entered the secret realm, we discovered that the monsters inside were far too powerful, and we couldn't even get past the first level."

"Oh, so your mission failed?"

"Hey, yes, young man, what about you? Did you fail your mission too?"

"Hehe, no, I was lucky and cleared the first level of the secret realm, but I had to leave the secret realm because of something urgent, and my mission was reset as a result."

"What? Young man, you've cleared the first level of the secret realm?" Upon hearing Wang Ming's words, the others' eyes widened in surprise.

"Yeah, that's right. If you don't believe me, I'll show you what I got." After saying that, Wang Ming sent the information about the Drywood Shield, the skill book Horizontal Slash, and the Drywood Ring to Cao Cao of Three Kingdoms.

After Cao Cao saw the items, he sent information about them to others.

After everyone read it, they realized that what Wang Ming said was true, and they found it even more hard to believe.

"Young man, you are truly remarkable." After a long while, Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms finally spoke.

"Hehe, Mr. Cao, how about it? Are you interested in these items?"

"Of course, I want all of these."

"Alright, let's go back to the starting village to trade."

"Young man, don't rush. I have something I'd like to discuss with you."

"What is it, Boss Cao?"

"Young man, you just said you cleared the secret realm, but you did it solo."

"Yes, I'm soloing, Mr. Cao. You know, my outfit looks exactly the same as when I first entered the newbie village, so no one will want to team up with me."

"Okay." Upon hearing Wang Ming's affirmative answer, Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms exclaimed happily, which startled Wang Ming.

"Young brother, since that's the case, I wonder if you would be willing to team up with us and clear this secret realm together?"
