Chapter 1 Common Route (01) [You have defeated [Hurray]]...
You have defeated [Hurray]
Amidst the pungent smell of roasted meat and a high-decibel roar, the BOSS in front of He Yuan collapsed.
Three golden spots and several white lights appeared on the corpse.
He Yuan reached out and tapped lightly, gathering all the light spots in his palm and storing them in his system inventory.
[Rewards being processed...]
The sound of gold coins falling rang in her ears, and He Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
finally……
We finally defeated this troublesome boss!
Without the guides on the forum, he would never have been able to accomplish this feat.
A few days ago was his twentieth birthday in the game.
After this birthday, a high-difficulty map called [Prison of Shadows] and the boss [Thundercaller] stationed in it will be updated.
The high-difficulty maps in the game are fixed, and there are special guides on the forum, so He Yuan took a look.
I start to feel anxious as soon as I look at it.
[Strategy Guide] [Regarding the boss [Thundercaller] in the map [Prison of Confinement], please note the following points.]
OP: Every time a newbie has enough stats to farm [Thunderclap], they finally manage to get into the Prison, but the BOSS isn't there. So I'm making this post to talk about it.
First, the first appearance of Thunder is random, and it usually spawns in the [Events] section. Everyone must pay attention to the year! Thunder is moved from time to time, and the current minimum year is [ten years].
Although there is regular communication between the various immortal ships, it is difficult for ordinary people to travel to other immortal ships. Generally, a very long review process is required. Players under the age of twenty have not even unlocked their career paths and basically have no "privileges".
So try to destroy it as soon as it spawns. Teaming up with an NPC and getting fewer rewards is fine, as five-star items are a guaranteed drop!
Secondly, Hu Lei's race is the Buli people, a branch of the Fengrao people. He has ten health bars and can revive once with three health bars. When fighting him, prepare more mana potions or find an NPC that can restore mana.
In addition, he has very high physical resistance, so remember to reset your skill points and get [Heavenly Thunder], which currently has the highest spell damage. If you are confident in your positioning, you can use [Bloodlust] to increase your damage.
Third, remember to set up more structures along the roads; you don't need to be a professional specialist.
If none of the NPCs you summon are government officials, then half an hour later, the strongest government force will appear in the Prison to arrest you.
After all, this place is off-limits to unauthorized entry. Even if a hacker is skilled enough, they can still hack into the surveillance system, but they can't escape the official search and capture team.
You can find the map for the Prison of Confinement in this post: [Complete Guide to High-Difficulty Maps]. When leaving, avoid routes 3 and 4, as the chance of encountering people on those routes is almost 100%. The other three routes depend on luck.
Finally, there aren't any bosses in this game that you absolutely have to fight, so don't be too anxious.
#1: Seeing this title reminds me of my bloody history of finally finding out the news and going to Zhu Ming, only to find that [Hu Lei] had already been transferred to Yao Qing.
#2: Nobody's as miserable as me. My Hu Lei was killed off by plot, and I can't get any information about him.
#3: I was playing a melee build back then, and I spent money to reset my skill points with tears in my eyes. In the end, I managed to beat it by using four NPCs.
#4: I remember when I came out of the game, I was staring blankly at my friend in the game...
He Yuan had just opened the post to express her gratitude when she realized that she seemed to have... ended up on Line 4.
He put down the jade tablet with the built-in forum and looked at Jing Yuan in front of him.
For some reason, he felt that Jing Yuan didn't seem surprised.
"What a coincidence, you're also having trouble sleeping and coming for a walk?" He Yuan smiled at the guard in front of her.
If you ignore the location and only look at the expression and tone, Jing Yuanzhen would think that she had just met He Yuan by chance and could immediately have a heart-to-heart talk at night.
He glanced at the bloodstains on He Yuan's body and Hu Lei lying on the ground in the distance, and laughed angrily: "You wandered into the Dark Prison?"
"Why don't you say you came to talk to Hu Lei because you couldn't sleep in the middle of the night?"
"If you hadn't refused to reveal any information, would I have had to be so secretive?" He Yuan thought to herself.
He wasn't in a hurry.
The person in front of me, Jing Yuan, is my childhood friend from the game Crane and Kite. He is currently a guard in the Shence Army and is basically a shoo-in for the next general.
He Yuan thought that if he wanted to get a call, he could just ask Jing Yuan and ask him to open an expedited channel for him.
After all, they're in a state of mutual attraction and affection, so they can't just keep quiet about it.
Then I asked about it yesterday.
The current Shence General Teng Xiao had sharp eyes and hadn't misjudged the person. Jing Yuan's mouth was as hard as steel; he couldn't pry anything out of him. He Yuan's own purpose, however, was about to be completely exposed.
Shame on you!
He Yuan read the document with humiliation and tried to extract information from the other person again.
After trying five or six times without success, he gave up.
He studied the strategy overnight and went into the prison to fight that very night.
I'm grateful for my hard work and dedication over the past fifteen years!
Crane Kite's attributes are surprisingly high, making it a level that can be soloed.
"...Would you believe me if I said I was sleepwalking?" He Yuan started to ramble.
Jing Yuan stared at him: "Do you think I would believe that reason?"
"We slept together every day when we were kids. I know better than you whether you sleepwalked or not."
I sleep like I'm dead every night, and I even sleepwalk?
He Yuan retorted confidently, changing the subject: "I didn't do anything wrong, so shouldn't Hu Lei die?"
The bosses that can be killed in the game are mostly from the evil faction and have taken many lives.
Those who are judged to be in the friendly or neutral camp are called challengers.
Jingyuan wanted to explain the seriousness of the situation to him, but Heyuan ignored him and immediately reloaded the save file.
Hey!
Fortunately, he was quick-witted and saved the game after finishing it!
This time, He Yuan left without encountering anyone and smoothly walked out of the prison. After changing her clothes, she blended into the official team that came to arrest the intruder.
He hooked his arm around Jing Yuan's neck from behind and said very naturally, "Why didn't you wait for me?"
Jing Yuan looked at him with a half-smile, which made He Yuan think that Jing Yuan had just saved his memories.
Xiao Wei took out a key from his pocket; it belonged to He Yuan's family.
He leaned closer. "I've been to your room, but no one was there."
Crane Kite: ...
What a miscalculation!
How could he forget that Jingyuan and he had exchanged house keys!
No wonder you weren't surprised!
He Yuan's hand froze, and she immediately took it off Jing Yuan's neck, but it was grabbed as it brushed against her arm.
“I just covered for you with General Teng Xiao,” Jing Yuan paused, then gritted his teeth and said, “You better not have done anything too outrageous!”
...I'm sorry.
He has already done the most outrageous thing.
Upon entering the prison again, Teng Xiao was not surprised by his arrival. He simply divided them into groups as usual, with each group responsible for searching and arresting people on one floor.
After the suppression, the Ten Kings' Office will conduct a special inventory.
Ignoring Jing Yuan's gaze, He Yuan grabbed Ying Xing and dragged her to the third basement level.
Yingxing won't steal his DPS; he'll even provide support, and all the rewards will be his!
Jing Yuan Danfeng always has to compete with him, and the rewards have decreased!
As for other things... we'll talk about them later.
Players always have their reasons.
Ignoring the hesitation of the aforementioned people, He Yuan grabbed Ying Xing and jumped down.
Helpless, Yingxing drove the golden man and summoned the goldfish.
A deep, yet frustrated voice came from inside: "Don't suddenly hug me next time..."
He Yuan nodded.
—You'll do it again next time.
Since it won't affect your favorability rating, you'll definitely like it.
He jumped onto the golden man's palm and attacked everywhere with magic as if he were piloting a Gundam.
In an instant, rubble flew everywhere, and dust filled the air.
Finding Yingxing has another advantage—it makes map navigation faster!
Crane Kite excitedly activated his unparalleled mowing mode, and anyone who wasn't staying quietly in the prison was blasted by him.
Wherever you go, there is a similar smell of barbecue.
Through the golden statue's observation window, Yingxing gazed at the figure of the young man in his palm.
That was the person he loved.
Fresh, beautiful, and captivating.
He fully utilized the advantages of longevity.
Unlike the long-lived species that Yingxing had seen before, He Yuan was not leisurely and carefree. Instead, like the short-lived species, she seized every moment to improve herself.
It is foreseeable that as time accumulates on him, he will grow into a terrifying being.
Unfortunately, Yingxing never got to see it.
This is completely different from Yingxing's body, which suffers from the defects of a short-lived species.
He was thirty years old, about to enter the middle age of a short-lived species, but his youth had barely reached adulthood.
A ten-year age gap is a sin in short-lived species, but not in long-lived species.
Ke Yingxing is not an immortal species.
He used to take it lightly, but now... he has developed such terrible thoughts.
This is incorrect.
If he did these things, it would only distance him from He Yuan.
He shouldn't use his lifespan to ask for anything.
Those filthy thoughts are like the mud in one's heart, which can only be covered up with seemingly clear stream water.
Someone knocked on the observation window.
Ying Xing looked up and met the blue-purple eyes.
He shifted his gaze slightly. "What's wrong?"
The young man's enthusiastic voice came over, "We've finished this floor, how about we slip away first?"
Crane Kite said mysteriously, "I'm taking you somewhere; I have something good for you."
Of the spoils he just acquired, there was one he had to give to Yingxing.
——【★★★★★ Item - Thunder's Claw: The hardest part of the former Warchief's corpse, which can be used for forging to add enchantment effects to weapons.】
If Crane Kite, whose career path hasn't been unlocked yet, wants a weapon, she can either buy it from the system shop or have it forged by an NPC.
The items in the system shop can only be used as a temporary measure; their potential is definitely not as high as those from forging.
According to forum guides, once players max out their [Crafting] skill experience, the weapons they forge will be two stars higher than the materials they use.
One star rating represents a 10% difference.
Some NPCs can also do this; as long as you build a good relationship with them, they can forge weapons "for free," mainly to provide weapons to players who haven't chosen this path.
After all, this is a backdrop of great cosmic prosperity, advanced technology, and crises lurking everywhere.
All the guides on the forum advise newcomers not to give up on improving their combat power, otherwise they'll become cannon fodder one day while on an interstellar trip.
Looking into those eyes, Ying Xing nodded involuntarily.
He Yuan knocked on the observation window again, "Shall we go?"
Ying Xing was somewhat relieved that the one-way observation window could conceal his ugly expression at this moment.
"good."
He said.
A note from the author:
----------------------
I wrote seven or eight versions of the original idea, but I couldn't capture the feeling I wanted, so I changed the idea.
As usual, here's a heads-up before you watch.
*This story will begin with the common route, and the endings will differ. There will be an epilogue.
*The text will contain forum-style content (both in and out of the game), and author's notes will be included where the content cannot be integrated into the main text.
*The outline is brief and requires a lot of inspiration. I will try my best to update daily, but the update time will be delayed if it is not finished.
*It's mostly 1v1 in stages, but there are also some sandwiched or multi-person scenarios, and the ending is the same.
*The Dragon Lord in this article is not a single person, but a trio of Yu Bie, Dan Feng, and Dan Heng.
*In the end, the worldviews will be integrated, while branching out into different storylines and endings.
*For the protagonist, it's a game world; he speaks clearly and openly, and his moral bottom line regarding emotions is extremely flexible.
