Can a Level 20 Account Still Be Saved After Entering a Level 50 Dungeon? Urgent, Waiting Online for Responses
“Dragon Lock Dagger...”
Liu Yuan raised his head and looked at the cold pond, but he could not see anything different.
The only difference was... It was too quiet.
There was only the sound of the waterfall flowing into the pool. Other than that, there were no sounds of birds, beasts, or insects. The ripples in the pool were very shallow, and the other places were also lifeless.
Liu Yuan began to explore along the edge of the cold pond. He was almost certain that this was the location of a fortuitous encounter.
The Jiuyuan mountain range was very popular in the maps around the novice village. The two major activities of treasure digging and strange encounters were simply irresistible, or rather, the random and lucrative activities were very popular among players.
Anyway, they were running around the world, mainly jumping off cliffs...
“This mountain is quite high. If I jump down, I’ll fall into the pool.” Liu Yuan rubbed his chin and looked up at the cliff above.
He lowered his head and stared at the cold pool.
“Then, if I didn’t die, and I discover something down there...”
“...”
The corner of Liu Yuan’s mouth twitched, and he felt that he understood again.
As the name suggested, the Dragon Lock Dagger was definitely something related to dragons sealed under the cold pond, but he was not sure what it was.
However, the words ‘Dragon Lock’ were not so nice. Just like his ‘Embroidered Bed Lock Dragon’?card, it was kind of forced.
This meant that the nature of the thing under the pool was unknown.
It was probably a place where evil was being sealed.
This was also the so-called uncertainty of a fortuitous encounter. Sometimes, one would encounter something bad. For example, someone once found something similar to a wormhole during a famine in the Jiuyuan mountain range. After jumping in, they could not go anywhere, but they found a new map that was not open.
... Although he was eventually bounced back due to the level restriction.
But there was no doubt that it was a hot topic for players who loved to take risks (die).
With that group of monkeys running around, there’s definitely no chance for the monkey wine for the time being...
“How can you get the tiger cub without entering the tiger’s lair? Let’s go down and take. look for the time being. ”
Liu Yuan reached out to test the temperature of the water. He took-deep breath and cast the basic auxiliary spells necessary for diving – the Water Repelling Spell and the Turtle Breathing Spell.
Fortunately, he had learned how to swim in elementary and middle school. Otherwise, he would have to hesitate whether to go into the water, or he would cast a weight increasing spell on himself, or something.
“Just take a look and leave, don’t touch anything.” Liu Yuan warned himself and carefully entered the water. When he reached a deeper area, he dived into the pool.
Glug, glug, glug. (Sounds of water)
The bottom of the dark pool was wider than he could see, and there was only a little bit of dim sunlight above his head, floating along with the waves.
Liu Yuan adapted to the underwater environment and hung the Flying Star Sword on his waist. He replaced the ordinary refined iron sword in order to deal with unexpected situations.
He first observed the surroundings and did not find any traces of biological activity.
He sank.
Liu Yuan remained vigilant, but he did not notice anything unusual until he saw some flashing lights.
“Hmm... I feel like there’s something there.”
He swam towards the place where the light was flickering, and as he got closer, he realized that the light was connected into long strips.
“What’s this?”
Liu Yuan’s eyes widened. He stopped his movements and floated in the water. In front of him was a thick chain that slanted left and right and disappeared into the darkness. It was about half a meter wide. The floating light on it was a spiral-shaped rune, flickering and emitting a golden-red light.
From top to bottom, it exuded a dangerous aura that said, ‘touching it will trigger the plot cut scene’.
Liu Yuan fell into deep thought. “looks like it really is a ‘Dragon Lock’. But just the chains are half a meter thick. How big is this dragon...?”
A few thousand meters?
However, this cold pond was not that big... It was probably connected to a medium-scale Secret Realm, but Liu Yuan had yet to realize that he had passed through some barrier.
He frowned and stopped immediately. He swam back for a while and did not swim back until he almost reached the surface of the cold pond.
“It’s not one-way, and there’s no restriction, but that stone tablet must have been there for a long time. There’s no external restriction, which means it’s not afraid of the thing suppressed below breaking free. It seems it’s quite safe.”
Liu Yuan made a judgment that it was temporarily safe.
He sank back into the water, passing by many chains that were all wrapped in spiral-shaped ancient runes.
Liu Yuan followed the direction of the chains and thought, ‘These runes look a little familiar. I think I’ve seen them in some analysis post on the forum.’
Shangyang’s volume of text was terrifying, and all kinds of detailed details were also the playground of the forum.
For example, all the books in the game could be flipped through page by page, and the content was all reasonable and convincing. Some were even scary after careful consideration.
One of the more shocking things was the game’s self-created language system.
In foreign literary works, music, and games, the authors would create their own languages for their own races and civilizations to increase the sense of realism and epicness. The more famous ones were the elf language, the magic tower language, and the mipu language.
In Shangyang, in addition to the Chinese characters that were commonly used, there was also a type of rune used to write talismans.
Liu Yuan’s speed suddenly slowed down, and his pupils shrank as he looked at the runes.
“Wtf! I remember now! F*ck, isn’t this the same post that talked about runes? In the end, it turned into an instance dungeon strategy post. Isn’t this the one?”
Liu Yuan looked into the depths of the darkness where countless golden-red lights extended. In the silence, he subconsciously shivered.
This was not a level 20 instance dungeon with novice difficulty... This was a level 50 mid-stage instance dungeon, which was the beginning of Soul Formation stage. If he did not form a full team, this instance dungeon would be opened for nothing, right?
“I think ... It’s time to go back and settle the score with those monkeys,” Liu Yuan said with a smile.
Thirty-Six Stratagems: Escape is the best strategy!
Liu Yuan immediately turned around, but as soon as he did, he saw the bright red blood on the corner of his clothes.
He had killed a few monkeys before, and the bloodstains left on them were not cleaned.
The bright red blood in the dark water was slowly drifting away like smoke and mist, condensing into a bundle and flowing behind him.
It was as if something was pulling it.
His face was pale and stiff. He looked at the blood on other parts of his body. As expected, they all seemed to have evaporated and floated back.
He did not notice it before because of the darkness around him, but now that he did, it was f*cking different.
Without his knowledge, his entire body had been surrounded by a faintly discernible cone-shaped blood mist!
Blood Qiwas the first key to opening an instance dungeon.
Liu Yuan wanted to cry but had no tears. He turned around stiffly and saw that the Blood Qi had indeed drifted deep into the chains.
It was as if it was being sucked by something.
Liu Yuan trembled as he raised his sword. “I-I-I-I... F*ck!”
Whoosh...
The calm and cold water in the pool began to flow slowly. The undercurrent surged wildly, making a whistling whale-like sound.
Rumble…
In the depths of the darkness, the thunderous sound of the tide swept over.
