After finishing this last match, Qi Xu checked the exchange space in the World Arena and found an item he had never seen before.
[Exemption Card]: "After use, you can refuse to participate in any mandatory dungeon once. This item is non-tradable and non-transferable."
A card costs 2,000 points, which isn't cheap. You need to win at least 200 games. Qi Xu has never redeemed anything here before. He has over 6,000 points, enough to redeem three cards.
But... after hesitating for a moment, he still chose to leave the World Arena directly.
It's no use. You can't avoid what you're supposed to avoid. The dungeons you're forced to participate in are definitely ones that will advance the main storyline of the survival game, so you absolutely can't miss them. Therefore, there's no need to worry about it.
Just then, the monthly leaderboard was released. In this ranking system that calculates the value of a player's personal assets, Qi Xu's victory was no surprise.
Qi Xu was more concerned about the dungeon previews after the rankings were announced, so he didn't even bother to look at the monthly ranking rewards, since they were still the same old things anyway.
It was only after Qiuqiu insisted that Qi Xu click on it that Qi Xu curiously took a look.
They immediately understood Qiuqiu's purpose: the first reward for the top spot on the monthly leaderboard was an "Exemption Card".
"Qiuqiu, you have to get through it even if you're sad. There's no use hiding from it."
"Oh, I'm going to broadcast the dungeon update now. I'll finish it as soon as possible so I can get some sleep."
Previously, when the game announced the dungeon, it was quite a ritual, with players deliberately timing their announcements to scare or make sarcastic remarks. Now, that's no longer the case.
The main problem is that all the players in the 88 region have figured out Qiuqiu's personality and temperament, so all their tricks have become just for show...
[The dungeon has arrived! Get out of my way, everyone!]
This month's dungeon name: Hungry Town
The residents of Hungry Town seem to be children favored by the goddess of happiness; they never feel hungry, but simply crave the ultimate delicious experience.
They were kind-hearted by nature, never clashing with anyone, and never making enemies. Their favorite thing to do was gather together every day to listen to stories, tell stories, research food, and savor food...
Taste is the town's proudest treasure, but suddenly it all failed overnight, causing immense pain to everyone! Brave, fearless, and kind players, if you step into the town, you will see that every household's door is open, and the tables are laden with all sorts of ingredients.
Freshly picked strawberries, freshly baked bread, freshly simmered soup—the residents look at you with expectant eyes... They say that outsiders' eyes can see light they cannot see, and outsiders' footsteps can awaken slumbering flavors...
Dear players, can you help them dispel the fog? Can you find the forgotten "taste key" hidden in some corner and help Hungry Town regain its former peace and joy?
Normal completion condition: Find the real reason why Hungry Town lost its sense of taste within one month.
Perfect completion condition: Within one month, find the real reason why Hungry Town has lost its sense of taste and help everyone solve their predicament.
[This instance involves randomized participation from all players across the server. Each instance space can accommodate 100,000 players. The use of any team-up cards is prohibited. This affects regional rankings; regions at the bottom of the rankings will be penalized. Please participate actively! Bye, goodnight!]
It's obvious that the previous dungeon descriptions weren't written by Qiuqiu; she's not good enough. All Qiuqiu really wanted to say was the last sentence, which had a very strong "workplace" feel to it, showing that she really wanted to leave work.
What puzzled Qi Xu the most was that this instance should be called "Hell on Earth," since S1 Qiuqiu had already given a heads-up, and Jiaqiu kept guiding him to look at the "Exemption Card."
So what's the situation now?
