"LuLu, I've already agreed to her."
"Okay, brother," Bai Lu replied obediently.
Xiu Mi wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead. These people are going too far, meow.
Lu Cang pulled Xiu Mi into the team.
Even if Xiu Mi hadn't come looking for them, Lu Cang still planned to come and play this dungeon, and he would still have needed Xiu Mi's cooperation.
The 【Night of Doomsday】 instance is extremely unique; instead of players seeking out the boss, the boss seeks out the players.
To kill a boss, you must hit its weak point. It is also huge, making melee combat extremely difficult. The best way to deal damage is through long-range physical burst attacks.
However, the white deer's wide-range attacks cannot hit small weak points.
In addition, Xiu Mi's long-range burst attacks are also of great help in this dungeon. While Bai Lu's attack range is large, her destructive power is even greater, and excessive destructive power is not all good.
After forming a team, everyone confirmed the preparations for the dungeon.
Before she knew it, Bai Lu had developed good professional habits, such as checking the preparation of various supplies and whether there were any related tasks to accept.
I wasn't this serious when I played games before.
Once inside the instance, there wasn't much difference between the inside and outside; the scenery was almost identical both ways.
This is a copy of the open terrain.
The terrain of the instance is like a shadow of the main world. The map is not much different from the outside of the instance, but there are boundaries, and you cannot go outside the boundaries.
After entering the dungeon, Xiu Mi explained, "There are two bosses in the dungeon. One is the octopus monster below, and the other is a hidden boss. However, I only know that the hidden boss exists, but I don't know how to activate it, meow."
"We just came in for a quick look around and tested the waters with that octopus monster. If it's not weakened at all, we have a 100% chance of losing to it, meow."
"Although we can start fighting monsters now, I suggest we look for the story quests for this dungeon first."
"There's a town nearby, a town belonging to your human race. You should be able to trigger some quests there. Based on my guess, there might be a quest storyline that can weaken the boss, meow."
"That's all the intelligence we've gathered, meow."
This is the information that Shumi obtained after he came in and took a look around.
After defeating the Spider Clan, Shumi came to this instance, scouted it out, and tested it out.
The result was disappointing: they couldn't beat it, at least not soloing it. The boss was too strong, and conservatively speaking, even if they completed the story missions, they might not be able to weaken the boss to a level where they could defeat it.
We still need to ask for help; we can only see if there are any reinforcements that can provide support.
So, they came to Cang Qiong and his group.
Bai Lu glanced down from the cliff edge and saw that many tentacles had indeed appeared on the sea surface. The tentacles were wriggling on the surface of the sea, giving people a sticky and disgusting feeling. She really didn't want to be touched by such things even once.
"What do you think of Cang Qiong, the strongest human? Meow!" Xiu Mi pushed the task onto Cang Qiong.
Bai Lu and Leng Qingying both looked at Lu Cang, who was the one making the decision.
If Cangqiong wants to unleash a boss, then let him unleash it directly. If it's about doing quests, no one will say a word.
"Let's go to town."
Fortunately, mounts can be used in this instance; otherwise, with such a large instance map, Zuya would probably not be able to reach the town even after walking for a whole day.
Movement speed is truly Zuya's biggest weakness.
With the help of their mounts, the group approached the town near the cliff in just a few minutes.
This town does not exist outside the instance; it only exists inside the instance.
Upon approaching the town, Lu Cang gave orders to Zu Ya.
"Zuya, share the damage to everyone in the town."
Zuya nodded without making any further movement.
After a while, that damned curiosity finally killed the cat: "What happened?" Shumi couldn't help but ask.
"good."
"Yes."
Zuya rarely spoke two words in a row, which greatly shocked Bai Lu and Leng Qingying.
“It has already completed my instructions,” Lu Cang explained patiently.
"It didn't move at all, meow?"
"What actions are needed to share the damage?" Lu Cang asked in return.
"But you can't just stand still, meow! At least strike a pose, meow!" Xiu Mi felt it was unbelievable. Who doesn't strike a pose when using a skill?
It doesn't even move when it's using its skills against enemies, let alone against its teammates. Who knew it would use a skill, meow!
"It nodded."
"Nodding doesn't count, meow!"
Zuya's damage sharing is a form of covert protection; the protected party is unaware that they are being protected.
Lu Cang and the others entered the town.
Although the town is small, it has all the essentials.
The town has all kinds of facilities, including the Awakening Hall, which is also located within the town. Few villagers cared about the arrival of Cang Qiong and his group; in their eyes, Lu Cang and his companions were just ordinary travelers.
"Cold, kill the target I marked, don't get spotted, put the body directly into your backpack."
“Zuya, release me from the protection of those who mark me.”
Lu Cang marked a passing NPC.
"Understood." Leng Qingying replied, then disappeared into the darkness.
When the passing NPC approached a dark corner, without making a sound, it vanished forever into the darkness.
Two seconds later, Leng Qingying rejoined the team.
Shumi was stunned for a moment: "Why kill him, meow? He didn't do anything, meow." Shumi was very confused.
"Don't ask why, because I'm the team's commander."
"Meow? Don't you guys find this strange, meow?" Xiu Mi looked at Bai Lu and Leng Qingying.
This inexplicable task, and you just do it without any explanation?
"Yes, putting everything else aside, the president is very trustworthy in this regard," Leng Qingying replied affirmatively.
Bai Lu replied easily, "It's okay~ Just listen to your brother~"
Lu Cang said calmly, "If you want to join my regiment, you'd better not have any doubts about my command."
Lu Cang said this without any sense of joking.
Xiumi could only puff out his cheeks and say, "Okay, meow, then I'll follow your orders for this dungeon, meow!"
Leng Qingying was like the Grim Reaper in the twilight, appearing and disappearing in the shadows of the town.
puff!
Pfft~
NPCs that happened to pass by were ruthlessly killed by Leng Qingying.
The town is just an ordinary town, somewhat like a smaller version of Xilong City. Apart from being smaller in size, it is no different from any other ordinary town.
You can even buy things with gold coins here, and you can even accept bounty missions to hunt wild monsters.
The group had been wandering around the town for an hour or two.
During this time, the group did not split up but stayed together, except for Leng Qingying, who would temporarily leave the group when carrying out the mission.
Xiu Mi, Bai Lu, Zu Ya, and even Lu Cang did not take any unnecessary actions.
Under Cang Qiong's command, Leng Qingying has already killed more than 100 NPCs who were just passing by.
The bodies were all put into backpacks.
This made Leng Qingying somewhat disgusted. The reason for her disgust wasn't that she had killed innocent NPCs, but rather that having these corpses in her backpack was a bit repulsive...
"It's resolved," Leng Qingying reported expressionlessly.
Having dealt with another NPC, Leng Qingying returned to Lu Cang's side once again, and surprisingly, she felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
Like a real assassin, he calmly returned to the boss's side to report after killing his target, displaying a true assassin's aura.
"OK."
When Leng Qingying returned, Lu Cang also came out of a mansion in the town.
Lu Cang had just entered the mansion, spoken with the owner, and received a mission to explore the basement.
Xiumi, who had been following the group all the way, was deeply shocked.
This man's actions from beginning to end were never hesitant or sluggish. No, "hesitant and sluggish" is a way of describing slow or dragging out of action.
The actions of the Azure Sky could no longer be explained by mere cleanliness and efficiency.
He seemed to know exactly where the missions were, what the rewards were for each mission, and even who he should contact. Without gathering any information or asking around, he simply walked up to a complete stranger and triggered the mission with the briefest possible conversation, accepting the mission.
It's important to note that these NPCs don't have exclamation marks above their heads.
Who has a mission and what mission will be triggered is completely unknown information.
But Cangqiong's approach was to accept and complete missions along the way, and through these missions, he would obtain inexplicable items.
What an exquisite rotating puppet, what a half-photograph.
Then he found an old man with half of the photo and combined them into a whole photo. The old man gave him a bottle of unknown white potion. Then he dug out a wooden box from the nearby soil, which contained a key.
The efficiency is terrifyingly high.
"Let's go, to the basement."
"We can unlock the hidden boss now."
Upon hearing Lu Cang's words, Xiu Mi tilted her head and asked, "Meow?"
What? Why can I unlock the hidden boss now? What happened? I followed along the whole way, so why does it feel like I skipped through a lot of the story?
Seeing Bai Lu and Leng Qingying's completely unsurprised expressions, Xiu Mi felt as if he were the only one being kept in the dark.
You all know what happened? Only we don't know, meow?
