Chapter 192 I'm here! Let's set off some fireworks to celebrate!
The Supreme Building is a top-tier training room.
Chen You's mind was still immersed in the circulation of the Nine Revolutions Primordial Chaos Technique.
With the triple blessing of the Perfect Qi Gathering Pill, the cultivation technique, and the title, his cultivation speed has reached an unbelievable level.
The two Jade Emperor Swords stood silently to the side, waiting for their cooldowns to end before automatically spawning monsters.
Time slips away silently.
"Ding!"
The crisp system notification sound interrupted Chen You's cultivation rhythm.
Chen You then slowly finished his practice, exhaled a breath of stale air, and felt that his mind had become much clearer.
He frowned slightly, looking somewhat impatient.
Without even thinking, I know who it is.
He only had one close friend.
[Moon Arrow]: President Chen, how's the new dungeon raid going?
Chen You raised an eyebrow.
Huh, so proactive?
I haven't even set off yet, and you've already delivered your firsthand battle report from the front lines?
He tapped his fingertips lightly on the virtual keyboard, carefully choosing his words, a mysterious smile on his face.
[Chen You]: The new dungeon is quite difficult; even the mobs are hard to defeat.
The message was sent successfully.
Meanwhile, in the council chamber of the Moon Goddess's Radiance, Moon Arrow's heart sank upon seeing the reply.
really!
Even this mysterious and unpredictable pioneer of the immortal path found it difficult!
Suppressing her inner turmoil, she quickly replied, both sharing and subtly testing the waters.
[Moon Arrow]: Indeed. We discovered that the first attack of each wave of monsters has a charge-up effect, resulting in ridiculously high damage.
[Moon Arrow]: Only when the main tank activates all damage reduction skills can it be barely withstood.
【Moon Arrow】: In addition, there are various group silence and AOE skills, so the team must spread out.
Chen You almost burst out laughing when he saw the string of messages sent by Moon Arrow.
Hey sis, your teamwork is amazing!
Did I just make up a random sentence and you reveal all your secrets?
A charged attack? Damage reduction fully activated?
That's easy to deal with. I have high HP and defense, and I also have a substitute talisman, so I can just tough it out.
But this dispersed positioning...
How can I disperse when I'm all alone?
Do you jump left and right, creating afterimages?
Chen You mentally complained, but his hands didn't stop moving.
[Chen You]: It seems that President Yue has made encouraging progress?
These words were like a needle, precisely piercing the Moon Arrow's most painful spot.
Inside the council chamber, Tsukinoya looked at the words "Promising progress" and a bitter smile appeared on his lips.
【Moon Arrow】: I just met the first BOSS, but the first BOSS... I can't understand it at all.
can not read it?
Chen You's interest was piqued.
Is the mechanism too complex, or are there some special puzzle elements?
The fact that even the Moon Goddess's Radiance, one of the three great divine races, was helpless against it must mean that it is not simple.
However, upon learning that they were stuck on the first boss, Chen You felt inexplicably more at ease.
I glanced at the time; almost ten hours had passed.
Everyone is still at the starting line.
Just as Chen You was thinking about what other information he could get, Moon Arrow sent another message.
[Moon Arrow]: If Chairman Chen makes any significant discoveries, I hope he can share them. The Radiance of the Moon Goddess will reward him handsomely.
Chen You smiled slightly.
Alright, it seems there's nothing more to ask.
[Chen You]: I haven't seen the BOSS yet either. I'll contact you again if I find him.
After closing the dialog box, Chen You stretched and felt great.
Free guides are free, so why not take them?
He checked his skills and saw that there were still several hours left before his clone skill's cooldown ended.
Not urgent.
He left the training room and returned to the guild territory with practiced ease.
In the medicinal herb field, the air is filled with spiritual energy, and all kinds of rare medicinal herbs are growing vigorously.
Harvest with one click.
Then he went into the alchemy room.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The rhythmic striking sounds rang out again, and the musical notes on the alchemy furnace flowed like water.
【Perfect!】
[SSS! Superb rating!]
[Heavenly Fire Descends!]
This time I obtained sixteen Immortal-grade Qi Gathering Pills!
After finishing all this, Chen You returned to the training room of the Supreme Tower with satisfaction to continue his seclusion.
Time slips away bit by bit in this monotonous yet efficient cycle.
Finally, when the gray icon representing [Shadow Clone] on the system panel regained its light.
Chen You's tightly closed eyes suddenly snapped open.
The skill "Shadow Clone" has finished its cooldown.
……
Qianguang City, West City Square.
This place was originally an empty open-air plaza, but after the system maintenance and update last night, a giant statue 100 meters tall was suddenly erected in the center of the plaza without warning.
The statue's form was shrouded in a blurry shadow, making its exact features unclear.
It was only vaguely discernible that it was a figure clad in heavy armor, sitting on a throne with his hand on the hilt of a sword.
Even its outline exudes a sense of solemnity and loneliness that has suppressed all ages.
Below the statue, an NPC dressed in full silver armor, with his face hidden under a helmet, stands quietly, named [The New King's Messenger].
Nearly a day has passed since the server update ended. Although the plaza is no longer as crowded as it was when the server first opened, it is still bustling with thousands of players.
They were in small groups of different races, but without exception they were all sighing and complaining, and a thick sense of resentment filled the air.
"Damn it, this dungeon is not for humans! Our main tank charged in and got one-shotted by those two gatekeepers at the entrance! Full health! Can you believe it?"
A burly warrior complained, spitting as he spoke.
"Don't even mention it. The numerical design was absolutely terrible; I suggest investigating whether he took bribes!"
"These are just the gatekeepers; we haven't even seen the boss yet. How are we supposed to play this game?"
Discussions rose and fell, with elites from various guilds using their raid wipes as bragging rights.
It's a contest to see who dies faster and more tragically.
They reached a consensus: at this stage, there is absolutely no possibility of clearing the new dungeon, "The Road to the King"!
Forget about clearing the game, very few teams even manage to see the first boss!
Just when the square was filled with complaints and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
"Whoosh—Bang!"
A sharp whistling sound ripped through the night sky, followed by a dazzling firework exploding in the sky above Thousand Light City!
Golden sparks exploded at the highest point, and colorful fireworks cascaded down like a waterfall.
All the players, whether they were complaining or in a daze, raised their heads in unison, staring in disbelief at this earth-shattering scene.
"Holy crap! Who is this person? They're so rich!"
"These aren't ordinary fireworks, this is that gift pack, ninety-nine gold coins!"
Ninety-nine gold coins... just to hear a sound?
A second whooshing sound followed immediately.
"Whoosh—Bang!"
Another huge golden firework bloomed in the night sky, even more dazzling than the previous one, its light almost turning half of Thousand Light City into daylight.
Then, the third, the fourth, the fifth...
Fireworks rose into the sky one after another, and the expressions of the adventurers began to change.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh bang bang bang bang—!"
The continuous whistling sounds merged into a sharp melody, and the dense explosions were like the drumbeats on a battlefield.
The night sky over Qianguang City was completely ignited by this grand and extravagant fireworks display.
Fireworks, one after another, shot into the sky as if they were free, exploding into countless rays of light.
Golden waterfalls, purple fireflies, a sea of blue stars...
The entire sky transformed into an incredibly magnificent canvas.
The square was deathly silent.
Everyone was looking up, mouths agape, their faces blank with disbelief.
The initial sarcasm and disdain had long been washed away by the magnificent and colorful scene before them.
All that remains is the most primal shock.
The resentment and turmoil that filled the air seemed to be gently wiped away by an invisible hand in the face of such ultimate beauty.
The dazzling light and shadow reflected in everyone's pupils, and also shone into their hearts, which had become gloomy due to repeated failures.
A two-meter-tall, burly orc warrior, who had just been cursing the dungeon designers with spittle flying, was now staring blankly at the sky.
My eyes had become a little wet without me noticing.
A female monk next to him covered her mouth, tears silently streaming down her face.
"Hey, why are you crying?" A companion nudged her, puzzled.
The female mage choked back tears and shook her head: "It's nothing, it's just... I miss my deadbeat lover..."
"At the risk of being found out by my husband, he..."
"Alright, that's enough."
The atmosphere has completely changed.
The square, which had previously been filled with insults and complaints, was now permeated with a strange atmosphere, a mixture of sadness and tenderness.
"We've fought tooth and nail here, getting wiped out time and time again, and the future seems bleak."
"But it turns out, this world can be this beautiful..."
"Perhaps we've all been pushing ourselves too hard."
Once suppressed emotions find an outlet, they burst forth like a flood.
People no longer discuss dungeons, and no longer curse the system.
Under the grand fireworks display, they temporarily forgot their identities as players, relaxed their tense nerves, and felt the fleeting beauty of youth.
And the one who started all of this, Chen You, riding a big white rabbit, had just appeared on the street corner.
