Chapter 2403: Time-limited Secret Realm Raiders Begin

"I swear on my grandma's dentures, this place is definitely not 'all natural'."

At the outermost edge of the Secret Realm Codename: Hell Volcano, a Ranger player who belonged to the online elite group of the Undead Studio and looked cool wearing an eyepatch smacked his lips and turned to his teammates next to him and complained: "I was selected to participate in the second in-depth investigation. The ecosystem of the monsters inside is simply a mess. If it weren't for human intervention in the system, there is no reason to ensure that they can coexist peacefully for a long time."

"Ok?"

The tall assassin beauty with a high ponytail next to her from the Yingyingyan Club Guild's second team frowned and asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

"This is the area we are in now. It is a rare place in the game called Innocence that has no logic at all. There is no history, no ecology, no cause and effect. It is like a map with the theme of 'fire' was simply made and a bunch of hostile creatures related to 'fire' were stuffed in."

Because this was a joint operation that didn't require too much discipline, the orc ranger from the Undead Studio didn't use the 'preparation time' to make 'preparations', but instead talked to the beautiful woman beside him: "To be honest, this is the first time I've encountered such a thing. After all, this game has never been so unreasonable before. Miss, can you believe it? I told an NPC friend in the game that I wanted to know the operating principles of the teleportation arrays of the Mage Guild, and he actually told me a bunch of nonsense. What's more terrible is that I almost understood it!"

"Oh."

The assassin beauty Yingyingyan oiled the short crossbow in her hand and asked casually, "So what?"

"Uh……"

The ranger, who had not expected such a reaction from the other party, was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "It's... quite strange, isn't it?"

"Is it weird? I think it's normal."

The assassin beauty sitting cross-legged on the ground shrugged her shoulders and said without raising her head, "If I must say, I think it's weird to talk about logic in the game. As for what you're wondering about... except for [Boundary of Innocence], aren't all other games on the market like that? Take the dungeon for example, some people will simply make up a background to waste everyone's time, and there are many people who don't even want to write a few more words in the text."

"Well!"

Because what the other party said was too reasonable, the ranger brother, who was completely unable to refute, paused for a moment, then nodded in frustration and said helplessly: "You are right."

"Ah."

The beauty replied nonchalantly.

"..."

After a brief silence, as if realizing that the atmosphere was really too bad, the Ranger scratched his hair and ran to the back of the team to chat with his friends from the [Immortal] studio.

After he left, another beautiful warrior monk with short hair and cool clothes ran to the side of the assassin beauty and asked her good friend curiously, "Hey, Xiaoxue, what's going on with you? If I remember correctly, you should like to discuss the various settings of [Boundary of Innocence] with others the most. Why did you finally meet someone with the same interests, but you just said a bunch of meaningless principles and sent him away?"

"Because I don't like to be picked up."

The Yingyingyan female assassin named Xiaoxue put away her dagger and dagger, folded her arms and leaned against the monk girl, humming softly, "Besides, I think matching aesthetics is more important than having the same interests."

“What matches the aesthetic?”

"You can understand that I think he is ugly."

"Is she ugly? Her eyes are big and her teeth are white. I think she's okay."

"I can't stand square faces."

"Hey, hey, hey, you're not a square-faced person, are you? My dad has a square face."

"My dad also has a square face."

"Then you still..."

"Just because my dad has a square face, I hate square faces."

"Sister, your puberty is a bit long."

"I want you to take care of it!"

"Okay, okay, I won't...ah, Sister Liu!"

The energetic monk girl was halfway through her words when she suddenly stood up and saluted to the dwarf woman who appeared behind her with an extra-long naginata in her hand.

Obviously, outside the game, you have to be at least 180cm tall including high heels, but in the [Realm of Innocence], you were randomly assigned to the dwarf race. Although your appearance is still sweet and intellectual, the sense of oppression has been reduced by at least 70%. The second chair of the [Yingyingyan] Guild, and also the deputy leader of this 800-man group, 'Liuli' sighed and said helplessly: "You really don't have any sense of tension at all."

"Hey hey hey."

The monk girl smiled innocently and did not deny the fact that she really had no pressure.

"After all, our team is responsible for hunting down those who have slipped through the net. Relax a little now so that you can concentrate more later."

The assassin girl gave a simple explanation, saying that she was not slacking off, but just chose a more cost-effective way to allocate her energy.

"You can relax a little, but don't lose your tension."

Because there were many players who were resting around, Liu Liu didn't say much. She just gave a simple instruction and left with the naginata that was at least twice as tall as her. A few minutes later, she walked to the front of the team.

"Hey, you're here?"

[Card Master] The deputy leader of the club's online racing team 3, whose race is a lizardman whose gender is almost indistinguishable, and who is a hottie outside the game, 'Kitty Mix' turned around and smiled at her temporary deputy: "What I'm saying is, when can you replace this ridiculous weapon?"

In the past, they had not met much, and even if they did, they would just greet each other politely. Liu Liu sighed and said helplessly, "Can we not talk about weapons?"

"But you are only about 1.1 meters tall now. This knife should be about 2.4 meters tall, right?"

The little cat scratched his bald, scaly head and complained, "You can't even play, right?"

Liu Liu had no intention of proving to the other party that he could wield the naginata, and simply went straight to the point and asked, "So, has the scout returned? Is there any information that I should pay attention to?"

"I'm back." Kitty Banjiang nodded, looking out at the seemingly endless red wasteland in the distance, and said, "The result is similar to what I expected. Although the monsters that were previously wiped out have not reappeared 100%, their number has returned to about 80% of the original number. If we calculate this way, we only need to wait one more night and the monsters in this secret realm will be completely filled up."

Liu Liu nodded slightly, and then asked: "Do the newly spawned monsters have contribution points?"

"Yes, but only about one-third of the first batch. Obviously, the authorities don't want us players to just wait for the refresh to make contributions."

The little cat flicked its tail twice and said with a smile, "But it doesn't matter. After all, we didn't plan to stay in this secret realm forever. After all, although there are fifteen entrances, no matter where we enter, the destination is this hot hell. Combined with the official statement, it is obvious that we must clear all the enemies in this secret realm before we can unlock the next area."

"Hurry up, then."

Liu Liu frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "According to the plan, Green Apple will announce the locations of the entrances to these secret realms to all players tonight. Ideally, we should clear the first secret realm within six hours after the announcement, maintain the contribution of the first half of the brigade at a fairly high level, and then make progress with the second half of the brigade in the next secret realm. Finally, we will start to lead other players to fight together after the third secret realm is opened. Time is very tight."

The little cat smiled calmly, and after a long while he said slowly: "Don't be impatient..."

"Don't worry?"

Liu Liu frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "What are you planning?"

"I don't have any idea, it's just..."

"only?"

"It's just that it's a rare opportunity for me to be the person in charge! Although I'm only the temporary person in charge of the first secret realm, and the people under me are all the most useless, this is the first time in my life that I'm the one taking charge! Let me enjoy myself for a while and experience the feeling of being alone at the top!"

"You...you have nothing to do?!"

“I’m super serious!”

"..."

Game time AM04:49
Boundary of Innocence, Public Space No. 077, Green Belt Outside the Central Square

"I'm really confused..."

Jun Wu curled his lips and said to Mo Tan who was rolling around on the lawn, "If we want to exchange information, there are many places to go, right? Why do we have to talk in such a public place?"

“Because it’s lively.”

Mo Tan raised his chin towards the bustling square not far away, then closed his eyes with a look of enjoyment and asked slowly, "So, what's the situation over there?"

"More than 80% of the first secret realm has been cleared."

Jun Wu reluctantly took out a stool and sat next to Mo Tan. He took out a copy of Harry Potter and the Golden Bellyband and flipped through it, saying in a voice that only Mo Tan could hear, "Although the news has just spread, most ordinary players are still on their way to the nearest entrance, but the professional players based in the Elf Forest and Mirkwood are already very close to solving the first secret realm. Now the average contribution per person is about 90 to 150, and there are about 8000 brigades in the game."

Mo Tan nodded without comment, and then asked, "Did you encounter any difficulties in the process?"

"Not at all, they were so well prepared."

Jun Wu shook his head and shrugged, "The first secret realm is a high-temperature environment similar to a low-profile version of the ember volcano. The monsters are all fire-attributed. The terrain inside is not complicated. It is basically a huge plain. Although there are many enemies, their quality is relatively average. Although there are about 30% high-level monsters, there is not a single peak level monster. As for the elite monsters at the small leader level... Although their hard power is definitely high-level and their vitality and defense are at the epic level, their intelligence is worrying. At first glance, they are the kind of wooden stakes that can be ground to death."

Mo Tan yawned and lazily commented, "There really is no suspense."

"Of course. My intelligence agent said that the professional players prepared a large number of fire-resistant items and equipment from the beginning. After they entered, they pushed through the enemy with ease."

Jun Wu smacked his lips and sighed, "There's no need for a commander. It's just a matter of the tank holding on, healing, and DPS. In the end, I found that the difficulty lies in averaging the contributions of each brigade."

Mo Tan didn't seem surprised at all, and just casually added: "That's normal. The goal of those professional players should be to use one or two secret realms to consolidate their own advantages, and then quickly expand themselves according to 'Joining a brigade with a contribution of more than 50000 can automatically receive the world mission [City of Innocence] of the continental level'. After all, the system is notoriously stingy. It's rare for it to take the initiative to support these idle losers, so they naturally won't miss this good opportunity."

“I share the same view.”

Jun Wu grinned and said leisurely, "The official intention is very clear. They want to let those professional groups that have almost no influence in the [Realm of Innocence], whether as individuals or organizations, take this opportunity to recruit a group of online members. Combined with the almost explicit mission name [City of Innocence], it seems that they want to create a force that belongs exclusively to players in this world."

Mo Tan also laughed and said happily: "What is the attitude of the Wanderer Inn? Since your spies have reached this point, I don't believe that the people above you know less than you do."

"What other attitude could it have? The Wanderer Inn has always used the same strategy - expanding its influence in every possible way while maintaining neutrality, and sparing no effort to implement a monopoly strategy on regional intelligence."

Jun Wu snorted lightly and said with some disdain: "I have reservations about the idea of ​​treating intelligence as a financial product."

Mo Tan nodded without comment, then changed the subject and said in a brisk tone: "The Kevos family may make some big moves recently. Please take care of them as much as possible within the scope of your conditions."

"Big move?"

Jun Wu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came to his senses: "Wait, you are cooperating with the Fortune Cult's Grey Money, aren't you just trying to take over the Free City stall as soon as possible..."

"My time is valuable, kid."

Mo Tan sneered and gave the other party an affirmative answer. While gently shaking his index finger, he whispered: "I don't have that much time to play the role of a neighborhood committee auntie, jumping up and down every day for those discounted eggs, and letting those who like monkey shows watch free performances."

"Hey, hey, hey, you should know where the Free City is, right?"

“It’s destined to be my backyard.”

"..."

"Then, as tenants who will definitely stay in my backyard in the future, it shouldn't be too much for me to collect some rent from you in advance, right?"
