◎【Corrected】It is best not to carry such dangerous things on individuals◎

A thin string, the upper end of the string is tied to the top, and the lower end is tied to a pebble-shaped object.

The lighting in this place was poor, and Xia Li couldn't see clearly what was hanging.

Then he used the green mist to hit the thin wire, corroding it and breaking it. A palm-sized grayish-white oval stone fell down. Xia Li stretched out her palm to catch it and used the identification technique.

[Meteorite: A rock that accidentally fell from its orbit onto the Miracle Continent. It has a strong density and occasionally exerts a strong repulsive force on fluids.]

Fluid, repulsive force.

Xia Li thought for half a second, and then suddenly understood why the sea water in Yakao Village had risen so much.

The demons didn't know where they got this stone from, and they found that this stone could repel water. However, because the stone's repulsive effect only occurred occasionally, the demons could not figure out the stone's repulsive law.

In order to find the patterns and make use of them, the demons kept trying various strange rituals. The one she saw that night when she accidentally broke into the forest of Saye Continent was one of the many rituals.

It just so happened that the repulsive force of the meteorite also began to take effect at that time. The ceremony and the rising sea level occurred at the same time, causing the demons to mistakenly believe that it was their curse ceremony that successfully caused the sea level to rise, so they increased the duration and frequency of the ceremony.

With the help of the meteorite placed at Monte Outpost, all the seawater flowing through the strait was pushed away by the repulsive force. In addition, the water flow in this area has always been swift, and the original flow rate plus the help of the stone caused the seawater in the north to rush continuously to the south.

All players know what happened next.

Yakao Village is located to the south of Monte Outpost and is low-lying, making it the first target of the spreading seawater.

Fortunately, the players finally cleared 13 connected copies and collected the fragments of Hera's statue. With the blessing and protection of Hera, the seawater that was repelled by the meteorite was all pushed back.

That fluid repulsion seemed to have consumed a great deal of the meteorite's strength. Since the sea water receded from Yakao Village, the southern coast has not been disturbed by sea water again.

But no one can guarantee when the meteorite will exert its repulsive force again.

Xia Li hurriedly put the meteorite back into her backpack.

She didn't want anyone - including herself - to use this dangerous stone unless necessary.

[Regional Map: Royal City - Queen's Palace]

"So it was the rocks that caused the seawater to surge," the Queen said, a faint smile on her face after hearing Xia Li's explanation. "You've done well, Xia Lihua. This is my reward for you. Please accept it."

As soon as the queen finished speaking, a system prompt popped up in front of her.

[Experience +4200, Gold +10]

【You have reached level 20】

Xia Li was not surprised at all about reaching level 20. Her experience bar was almost at 20, and just one more step would take her to the new level.

But she didn't expect the Queen to reward her with over 4,000 experience points all at once?!

Xia Li was slightly surprised. You know, she could only gain a few hundred experience points by working hard to kill monsters and complete daily tasks. Even the last time she got the first kill in the Unicom copy, she only got a reward of 2,000 points.

As a result, the Queen spent four thousand this time. It turned out that completing the Queen’s mission was a huge profit!

Xia Li rubbed her hands excitedly and happily, watching the experience bar move forward again.

at the same time:

[Reputation increased by 5 points]

【Flying Scroll*1】

【Queen's crystal bracelet*1】

There's even a flying scroll! This is so precious!

As a human being who has neither a flying mount nor wings, the Scroll of Flight is definitely an item that Miracle players are scrambling to get.

Xia Li accepted it happily and moved her eyes to the crystal bracelet.

What attributes will it be? With a little bit of anticipation, I clicked on it.

[Queen's Crystal Chain: Precious Blue Equipment, Physical Strength +12, Spell Critical Hit +10, Special Effect: Stop Bleeding]

[Stop Bleeding: Passive, 30% chance to reduce enemy damage]

This has much better properties than the [Evil Tooth Chain] she was wearing before!

The former is an ordinary blue outfit. Although it adds some points to physical strength, it is generally a physical equipment and is not suitable for her.

But the latter is different. The queen can know whether she is going in the direction of physical attack or magic attack through her character attributes, and will give her corresponding equipment.

This is much better than relying on luck to get equipment when exploring a new area. If you get gold, you make money, but if you get garbage, you can only accept it with tears.

Xia Li accepted the evil tooth chain and replaced it with a crystal chain.

A blue light flashed appropriately on the wrist.

This is precious equipment. It feels more comfortable to wear than ordinary clothes, as if it was tailor-made for her.

Xia Li thanked the queen happily and turned to leave the palace.

Since the last joint dungeon, the top few guilds seem to have been quiet.

Especially that Long Yan who likes to bully others by taking advantage of his power. After hearing from Qing Zhengyu and the others that due to several consecutive failures in public, President Lie Yan seemed to be unable to tolerate his nephew's reckless waste of resources anymore, so he temporarily removed him from the position of vice president and let another mage take his place.

What was his name? It seemed to be Bohu West Bank, eighth on the Mage Rankings. He wasn't the strongest, but he was incredibly thoughtful. Although he didn't have the chance to become Vice President in his previous life, he still won the heart of Guild Leader Lieyan.

An existence that is much more difficult to deal with than Long Yan.

But so what?

If the enemy comes, we will fight him; if the water comes, we will block it with earth. If no one offends me, I will not offend anyone. As long as Lieyan and his group stop offending her and Fengyun, she will not keep them in her mind every day.

Just as I was thinking about it, a message popped up in the guild channel.

[Sparkling Water has left the guild]

Oh, the male priest who was bribed by the flames.

The play was performed to lure the snake out of its hole. Not only did it deceive Lieyan's people, but it also brought out a guy who was eating public food but doing no good.

Now that the accounts were settled, Baili Xi deducted all of Bubble Water's guild contribution points and the supplies he had taken from the guild, and kicked him out directly.

Baili Xi: Now that everything is settled, do you plan to enter the adventure dungeon first or wait until the day after tomorrow to open the ruined city?

Xia Li flipped through the guild list and scanned the levels of the top twenty members.

There are too few of them. Now, she and Baili Xi are the only ones in the entire guild who have reached level 20, and the others are between levels 15 and 19.

Although the adventure dungeon can be opened as long as one person in the team is at level 20, anyone who really believes this nonsense from the official will surely die.

Xia Li put away the list and replied: [Ruins of the City]

The other side replied with a "good".

[Remember to mention the equipment performance] Xia Li thought about it and decided to give a friendly reminder.

The first ruined city map opened in the Miracle is the Ite Ice Land. Just by looking at the name, it's a freezing cold place. If we continue to explore it with the normal equipment we have now, the team will be killed, if not completely wiped out, at least half of them will be killed.

Soon, Baili Xi asked her: [What aspect do you want to mention?]

"I'll give you some pointers, but I'll focus on improving your agility." Then, afraid of giving something away, he added, "Sometimes speed is more important than strength."

Just like how she used her speed to defeat the orcs on the two outposts, even if she lacked strength, she could still turn the tide of battle by using her skills to take the initiative.
