Is the closed beta test of King of Loque over? The official release is here!

Then, Mo Fan took out the communication panel and sent a message to Feng Ling'er.

[Mo Fan: Let's run a dungeon? Or should we meet at Magic Crystal Plaza?]

After a while.

[Wind Chime: Okay.]

After Zhao Mingyuan finished washing up, the two headed towards the Magic Crystal Plaza.

On the way, Zhao Mingyuan continued to ramble on about the various news he had seen that morning.

"Mo Fan, do you think we can be considered celebrities now?"

"Look at all the discussions on those forums, it's all about our names!"

"Calculate."

"But as I said before, discussion is one thing, but whether someone is a celebrity or not is meaningless; ability is the most important thing."

Zhao Mingyuan pursed his lips.

"You're right, but fame can be quite useful sometimes."

"for example?"

“For example…” Zhao Mingyuan thought for a moment, “For example, if we really build our own team and become famous, wouldn’t it be much easier to recruit people?”

Mo Fan glanced at him.

It must be said that Zhao Mingyuan's words hit the nail on the head.

Fame itself has no value, but the additional effects that fame brings are indeed useful.

"And don't you think?" Zhao Mingyuan leaned closer and lowered his voice, "Those big powers are all trying to win us over, which means we have value in their eyes. But if we don't join any side, over time we might go from being 'people they want to win over' to 'thorns in their side'."

Mo Fan paused slightly.

He turned and glanced at Zhao Mingyuan.

Zhao Mingyuan is usually carefree, but sometimes what he says makes a lot of sense.

“You’re right,” Mo Fan nodded. “So we need to become stronger as soon as possible. Strong enough that they dare not act rashly.”

"That's exactly what I mean!" Zhao Mingyuan clapped his hands. "So hurry up and run the dungeon! Just do it!"

The two quickened their pace.

Before long, they arrived at the Magic Crystal Plaza.

As usual, the square was bustling with people, filled with players and their pets.

However, compared to a few days ago, there were significantly more people in the square.

Those who were previously observing and hesitating are now starting to take action.

After all, the impact of pets, magic, Lockebe, and the Ancient Cocoa Tree Secret Realm has been too great after so many days of continuous fermentation.

Many people have discovered that as a mage's level increases, their physical attributes also improve.

This has greatly appealed to many elderly people or those with health problems.

They seemed to see in this transformation a possibility of achieving immortality.

The tide of the times is sweeping; even those who are unwilling will be swept up by it and join in.

After all, everyone realized a harsh reality—

If you don't work hard, you'll be eliminated.

In the wave of global change, no one can remain unaffected.

"There are a lot more people here than before," Zhao Mingyuan remarked, looking around.

At that moment, Zhao Mingyuan thought of something and quickly lowered his head and lowered his voice.

"Mo Fan, do you think we might get recognized?"

Mo Fan shook his head helplessly.

"Don't worry, this place is crowded, who will pay attention to us?"

"As long as you don't show your signature pet, you won't attract attention."

Then, his gaze swept across the crowd, and he soon spotted a familiar figure in a corner of the square.

Wind chimes.

She stood at the edge of the square, like a beautiful sight to behold.

"Wind Chime!" Zhao Mingyuan waved to her.

Feng Ling'er turned her head, saw the two of them, nodded slightly, and walked towards them.

"Have you been waiting long?" Mo Fan asked.

"Just arrived." Wind Chime's answer was as concise as ever.

The three met up.

Mo Fan spoke:

"Currently, the Ancient Cocoa Tree Secret Realm is closed, and there's nothing else to do."

So for now, we'll stick to farming these three secret realm dungeons.

After all, even these three initial dungeons still contain many areas we haven't explored. There might be quite a few good items inside.

Zhao Mingyuan and Feng Ling'er nodded.

"However, before we go into the dungeon, there's something I'd like to tell you."

Chapter 114 Stonehenge (Tomorrow's update)

Mo Fan organized his thoughts and said.

"After this trip to the secret realm, I think you should have realized that the three of us alone are far from enough when facing those powerful forces."

"Therefore, I think it's necessary for us to build our own team."

Mo Fan paused for a moment, then continued.

"It's not one of those large guilds with dozens or hundreds of members. We don't have the capability or the energy to do that right now."

"My idea is to take the elite route. We don't need many people, but each one of them must be reliable and capable."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mingyuan's eyes lit up.

"I agree!"

"Once we have manpower, we won't have to worry about others using sheer numbers anymore."

Zhao Mingyuan still remembered the time at the hot spring, and the time when the two major guilds besieged the ancient cocoa tree.

Wind Chime nodded as well.

Mo Fan continued, "Of course, talented people are hard to find."

So this matter isn't urgent; we can take it slowly. Right now, the most important thing is to improve our strength.

"As for the team, we'll talk about it when we find the right people."

"Better to have nothing than something bad," Feng Ling'er said.

Mo Fan glanced at her and nodded.

That's exactly what I mean.

After the three of them reached a simple consensus, they stopped discussing the topic.

"Let's go, let's run a dungeon."

Mo Fan turned around and walked towards the teleportation point of the secret realm instance.

Zhao Mingyuan followed closely behind, still muttering to himself.

"I'll try to do a few more rounds today and earn some Lockheed Martins. I'm dirt poor right now."

“Me too,” Mo Fan replied casually.

"Oh? You're poor too? I thought I was the only one who was poor."

"I didn't get a single Rock Coin in the Ancient Cocoa Tree Secret Realm."

"That's true... then hurry up and swipe it!"

Feng Ling'er followed behind the two, a barely perceptible smile playing on her lips.

Of course, before the three of them entered the secret realm instance, Mo Fan made a simple division of labor.

"We will continue to operate separately this time."

Zhao Mingyuan and Feng Ling'er both looked at him.

"Mingyuan, go to Mount Vesuvius."

"Me?" Zhao Mingyuan was taken aback. "Why do you want me to go to the volcano?"

Mo Fan said, "Your White-browed Ape is only level 10, which is too low. We need to raise it as soon as possible. The White-browed Ape has earth-type skills, and earth is effective against fire. Go to Mount Vesuvius to fight fire-type pets to level it up. That's the most efficient way."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mingyuan nodded repeatedly.

"understand!"

Then Mo Fan looked at Feng Ling'er.

"Wind Chime, go to Mermaid Bay."

Feng Ling'er nodded slightly and didn't ask any further questions.

She understood what Mo Fan meant—of the three initial secret realm dungeons, they had mainly explored the Pet Garden and Mount Vesuvius, but there was still a large area in Mermaid Bay that they hadn't yet explored.

She went to Mermaid Bay, and Mo Fan went to the pet park.

The two explored different secret realms to see what was hidden in those unexplored areas.

"Okay, it's settled then." Zhao Mingyuan rubbed his hands together. "Everyone can use their own. If you find anything, just let us know."
