Nie Yu pursed her lips, glanced at her brother, and then said, "The main quest is to kill the King of Mummies."
"Huh?" Xu Kun picked at his ear in confusion: "King of Mummies? There's such a thing?"
“Yes.” Nie Yu’s voice was strained: “The Mummy King is a Level 6 mutated creature.”
"...We can't win." Gu Mian said decisively, "You should give up on this mission."
Just kidding, the highest level of known mutated creatures is only level four. You've suddenly become level six. You're probably just sending them to their deaths!
“I know this mission is definitely impossible to complete right now.” Nie Yun gave a bitter smile: “But if the main mission isn’t completed, we can’t summon the portal to time and space, and we’ll still be trapped here.”
"Well..." Gu Mian scratched her head and said, "I wonder if you can go out through the space-time portal we summon?"
Nie Yun was taken aback, then realized that as long as the main quests didn't overlap, they could indeed possibly escape through the time portals summoned by other players...
"Alright, that's enough for today." Gu Mian clapped her hands. "We can talk about everything tomorrow. I'm going to sleep."
After saying that, he ignored everyone else, took the tent out of his backpack and put it down, then quickly washed up, crawled into his sleeping bag, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
Even if the sky were to fall, nothing could stop her from sleeping!
"..."
Everyone who witnessed Gu Mian's series of actions was dumbfounded.
Xu Kun: "Looks like my little sister is sleepy. Okay, let's call it a day then."
As he spoke, he took out a blue tent from his backpack and put it down. Then he turned to Jiang Bai and Gu Xiaobei and asked, "Are you going to sleep with me, or set up your own tents?"
Gu Xiaobei immediately walked over with a grin: "Brother, your tent is so big, aren't you lonely sleeping alone? Hehehe, let me and Lao Bai sleep with you!"
"You have no manners, does your brother Bai know that?"
"Okay, okay, bro, you're so long-winded!"
As the three figures gradually disappeared into the tent, Zhou Ye, Qin Huaizhou, Mo Zha, and Mei Zi exchanged glances and then each found a place to go.
For a moment, only the Nie siblings remained standing in the vast place.
Nie Yu: "Brother, it's getting late, let's get some rest!"
In this godforsaken place for so many days, she and her brother haven't been able to get a good night's sleep!
She spends every day being chased by mummies, and if she doesn't get a proper rest, she'll soon have a nervous breakdown!
Nie Yun naturally had no objections. After being on edge for so many days, he could finally relax a little now that he had so many temporary teammates.
...
Over there, Gu Mian, who had said she was going to sleep early in the morning, didn't actually go to sleep. Instead, she secretly opened the box in the tent.
She didn't participate in this monster-hunting event, so her backpack only contained the 6 Shadow Chests she had previously been allocated.
The black boxes were placed on the ground one by one, and Gu Mian opened them one by one.
[Received: Mystic Crystals*6 (doubled)]
[Received: 50ml x 2 White Tea Honey (doubled)]
[Received: Summoning Scroll *4 (doubled)]
[Mystic Crystal: A special ore that can be smelted with weapons, with a chance to increase the weapon's attack value.]
[White tea honey: A special type of honey that helps replenish energy and restore blood volume.]
[Summoning Scroll: How can a proper island owner be without islanders? Quickly use this scroll to summon your islanders!]
Gu Mian: ...
What the heck are islanders?
From where can it be summoned?
Are the summoned beings definitely humans?
Gu Mian was completely baffled, but the system offered no explanation, so she had no choice but to suppress her curiosity for the time being and investigate when she got back.
...
Gu Mian was awakened by a series of clanging and banging sounds. The moment she opened her eyes, there was no sleepiness in them, making it seem as if she had never slept at all.
She first drank a purification potion to clear the pollution level that had reached 50, and then took out her weapon, opened the tent, and went outside.
Outside the tent, Xu Kun, Jiang Bai, and others were fighting a large group of mummies.
I have no idea where all these mummies came from. They're so densely packed together, it's really creepy!
At this moment, Xu Kun, Jiang Bai and others were in a fierce battle because there were just too many mummies. They killed one and another one appeared.
They were really struggling to cope. If Gu Xiaobei hadn't covered this area with a protective shield early on, they probably would have been buried by these mummies long ago!
Gu Mian didn't rush to fight the monsters. Instead, she took out the Spring Staff and cast a healing spell on everyone.
By now, almost everyone has been injured. As soon as the healing spell is cast, everyone feels warm all over and even the fatigue disappears!
Xu Kun: "Thanks, little sister!"
Jiang Bai: "Gu Mian, thank you!"
Gu Xiaobei: "Thank you, sister, I love you!"
Zhou Ye: "Thank you!"
...
Everyone was in high spirits and thanked Gu Mian in turn.
Gu Mian nodded in response, then took out the Frostbow and Cloud-Piercing Arrows and shot them at the mummy with a "whoosh whoosh whoosh".
The Frostbow is the best choice for dealing with monsters that like to huddle together; once the skill is triggered, it freezes an entire area at once.
Although its offensive capabilities are a bit weak against level 4 monsters, its additional skills are very useful!
Look, several of them have frozen solid.
"Focus fire! Attack!"
As soon as Gu Mian finished shouting, a barrage of attacks was unleashed on the frozen mummy, instantly killing it!
"Hey, that was awesome!" Xu Kun shouted excitedly, "Sis, let's work together like this, we're going to kill all these mummies today!"
Gu Mian: "Mm."
With the help of the Frostbow, the speed at which the group killed the mummies increased significantly, and the number of mummies outside the protective shield began to decrease at a visible rate.
Qin Huaizhou stabbed a nearly dead mummy to death with one strike, then quickly put the Shadow Chest that had fallen to the ground into his backpack: "So many mummies, if killing one gives you 10,000 points, wouldn't that be awesome?"
Mei Zi glanced at him blankly and said, "Do you think the system is so kind as to let you come here to farm points?"
Gu Mian: "Speaking of farming points, I still have more than a dozen high-level dungeon entry tickets. Shall we schedule a time to farm them?"
Everyone paused for a few seconds after those words were spoken.
After a long pause, Xu Kun swallowed hard and asked, "A dozen or so high-level dungeon entry tickets?"
"Yeah." Gu Mian glanced at him. "What's wrong?"
Xu Kun said with a blank face, "I don't have a single one, but you have more than a dozen!"
Gu Mian: "..."
"Because I've been saving it up and haven't used it yet."
"Even if you say that, sister," Gu Xiaobei found it unbelievable, "it's already ridiculous that you could open so many boxes, okay?!"
He hasn't gotten a single one!
Gu Mian: "..."
It wasn't all from opening; half of them were doubled...
