Chapter 39: Unlocking Dungeons and New Quests
[Congratulations to players [Lu Renya], [Jade Emperor], [Wang Ergou]... for completing the pre-game mission [Killing Demons in the Cold Pond]! A new game mode has been launched! ]
[Congratulations to all players on unlocking the level 20 dungeon [Cold Pond Cave] (the dungeon is under maintenance, countdown to dungeon opening: 00:29:59). Players are not restricted by level to enter the dungeon, but it is still recommended that players above level 15 enter. Players who kill dungeon bosses can gain sect prestige points, which can be used to exchange for sect-exclusive special effect equipment, high-level elixirs and other rare props and goods. The sect prestige store is under maintenance (countdown to sect prestige store opening: 00:29:59). Please click on the map to search and view the location coordinates of the exchange store. ]
Two yellow notices suddenly popped up in the world, and then a personal information notification also popped up in front of Wang Ergou.
[Congratulations on completing the hidden mission [Killing Demons in the Cold Pond], mission rewards: 500 points of sect prestige, 5000 Exp. ]
Let's not talk about what 500 points of sect prestige means, 5000 experience points are enough to upgrade one level or more! Wang Ergou watched excitedly as he received the reward. His level jumped directly from level 15 to level 16, and he was less than one-fifth away from level 17!
Although the location of this hidden mission is very challenging, the reward is really good!
While players were excited, many also raised questions: "Why didn't the boss drop any items this time?"
A player with a good level of self-PUA guessed: "Maybe it's because this is not an adventure mission, nor a hidden mission, but a pre-dungeon mission?"
"It's possible! And this BOSS gives a lot of experience points! I leveled up two levels!"
"Then your level is low, I just leveled up..."
Seeing that the huge whirlpool in the cold pond was covered by fog that came out of nowhere, the players were temporarily unable to get close. Every time they got close, a prompt would pop up on their faces: [The copy [Cold Pond Cave] is under maintenance, please try to enter again later].
As a result, the BOSS that died in the cold pond was not even allowed to be fished out by the players, and there was no drop at all, which made a lot of players very unhappy!
Strictly speaking, Fang Xianyu did this on purpose.
Although "Records of the Ten Continents" is nominally a game, it is a real world after all. It is impossible to get anything every time you kill monsters. When there are more players in the future, Fang Xianyu cannot keep an eye on all players and replenish their "drops" in real time. So, players must adapt in advance to the situation where they work hard to kill monsters but get nothing.
Of course, the players did not gain nothing. For example, the "virtual currency" such as prestige and experience points was a patch made by Fang Xianyu. As long as they participated in killing hostile targets of corresponding strength, a restriction in the body of the puppet controlled by the players would be sensed, and then it would be applied to the cross-dimensional world network database designed by Fang Xianyu, generating timely feedback on the prestige and experience points.
Like this BOSS, based on the timely feedback after the prohibition sensing, each participating player can get 500 points of sect prestige and 5,000 points of experience, which is already a very generous reward!
Of course, part of the reason was that Fang Xianyu never expected that the players would kill the demon with just one strike!
What a joke! That was a Nascent Soul level demon! In the Nine Netherworld, it was considered a medium-level demon! Not to mention the level of those stupid players in the Qi Refining Stage, even Fang Xianyu herself couldn't withstand a single blow from that demon! But the players' tricks killed the demon in one go! In fact, Fang Xianyu didn't react until the demon died! It was only after the Nine Netherworld passage began to be exposed that she started to make temporary patches in a hurry.
To be honest, although the Thunder Talisman is very lethal, it is not strong enough to kill an intermediate demon at the Nascent Soul level. The Thunder Talismans of varying quality drawn by the players themselves cannot even kill a Jindan cultivator!
But the quantity is too large!
When five thunder talismans are superimposed, the effect is more than just the sum of their parts!
Friends who often use lightning to strike people know that the lethality of lightning on the water surface is very terrifying. More importantly, water can conduct electricity - this means that in the entire cold pond, the range damage of the five lightning talismans superimposed is in a continuous state!
In addition, the natural damage of the sky thunder to the Nine Nether Demon, which is a combination of Yin and resentment, is suppressed. Otherwise, it would not be forced to hide in the cold pond by just three players detonating thunder talismans in its body. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why it died when five thunder talismans were detonated on it at the same time, causing continuous damage - this level of damage is enough to kill any unprepared Yuanying monk! However, many players also focused on the dungeon gameplay, complaining: "Finally there is a dungeon where I can spawn monsters! But this dungeon is too far away! I can't run for more than an hour every time I spawn a dungeon, right!?"
After overhearing such complaints openly, Fang Xianyu nodded suddenly. She had not really thought about this problem in advance.
Having lived in this world for nearly two hundred years, she had long forgotten everything about modern society. All along, whether she was traveling or going out on a daily basis, she had always used spells or magical instruments. Compared with her almost endless lifespan later on, a journey of more than an hour was not a journey at all, it was just the concept of lifting her legs.
But for people living in a highly information-based modern society, a fast-paced life is the mainstream.
"Records of Ten Continents" itself has a very long game rhythm due to its overly hardcore game details, which has led to polarized reputation - to play the game, you have to actually learn some techniques such as building a house, and you can't even use modern machinery. The threshold of the game is really too high. These have been criticized by netizens on game forums for a long time.
If even playing a dungeon requires people to run for more than an hour, Fang Xianyu can imagine that she will be scolded to death in the forum! However, since the demon has been killed, the nearby valley with beautiful scenery and excellent conditions can be incorporated into the sect's resident. Setting up a sect resident here and setting up teleportation arrays on both sides can not only play a role in diverting future players, but also avoid being scolded, killing two birds with one stone.
However, in this case, the basic buildings of the sect will have to spend more system energy, which is really a bit too much...
Or... let the players build it themselves? Anyway, so many players are idle, so it is reasonable to let them build their own sect camps, right?
Fang Xianyu was thinking in his mind.
As for whether players will curse the dog planner's ancestors in the game forum...
They were scolding the dog planner, what does it have to do with me, the only noble GM of "Ten Continents"? Thinking of this, Fang Xianyu decisively issued a shareable team task to Lu Renya.
[New Sect Station]: [After defeating the BOSS living in the cold pond, you seem to have discovered a beautiful valley nearby. This place seems to be very suitable for building a new sect base, and you decide to explore it first. (Can be shared, upper limit of the number of people who can share: unlimited) (Reward: 2000Exp, 100 points of sect contribution)]
The golden task scroll kept flashing. After Lu Renya clicked it, he looked at the task interface in disbelief, his eyes almost popping out!
She hurriedly chatted with Wang Ergou privately: "Captain, have you received any new missions from the sect's headquarters?"
Wang Ergou replied almost immediately: "New mission? No! Have you received the mission?"
"【Task Sharing】, look, this is the task I just popped up."
"Fuck!" Wang Ergou was so jealous that his facial features twisted in an instant: "Hurry up and form a team! Don't we have to share this with all the servers first?"
"Oh, okay, then why don't you lead the group? I don't know how to command!"
