Time quickly passed by for more than ten minutes, and Councilor Wang stood behind the shelter with a hint of surprise in his eyes, “This player is so strong, he can actually withstand the onslaught of so many Level 15 monsters. Unbelievable!”
“His information is all hidden; we don’t know his name and level, but judging by his strength, he’s at least Level 20, or even Level 25,” Captain Zhou whispered.
“Impossible! After Level 10, the amount of combat experience required to level up is too high. Even if he played non-stop 24 hours since joining the game, he couldn’t have reached Level 20!” Deputy Commander Sun immediately shook his head.
You see, these Level 15 mutant zombies can only cause him two or three points of damage at most, barely breaking through his defense. His defense is at least 50 points, but every one of his attacks can cut off hundreds of Vitality Points from the monsters. His skills can even cause 300 or even 400 points of damage…”
“This is simply a one-sided slaughter. If it weren’t for the fact that the mutant zombies lack intelligence and only act on instinct, they would have collapsed after losing so many!” Captain Zhou shook his head and sighed.
“Try to get closer to this person; we must not become enemies!” Deputy Commander Sun whispered. With the strength shown by Song Jian, he could easily eliminate all of them.
Song Jian’s Vitality Points were now reduced to about half. Glancing at the dozen or so players off in the distance on high alert, Song Jian frowned and took out a few Self-destructing Robot Type 2s from his inventory.
Boom, boom, boom-
Over 30 monsters were directly blown away. In an instant, the monsters surrounding Song Jian were all gone. After harvesting the last bit of Vitality Points from some low-health zombies, Song Jian’s experience bar increased by a little more;
Over 60 Level 15 mutant zombies dropped many zombie Crystal Cores and some materials, among which the most valuable were two Level 15 green-quality pieces of equipment: a Mage’s Magic Staff and a chainmail that increased intelligence and spirit.
Song Jian took a look at the attributes, then stowed them in his inventory, put away his motorcycle, and walked towards the “Snow Mountain” in the distance.
“This is the place!” Looking around the environment, Song Jian confirmed it was the same scene as shown in the Holy Flame Pearl’s illusion. The building completely sealed in ice in the distance was the location of the Frost Cave dungeon.
As he walked towards the Frost Cave, Song Jian discovered that the players had built a shelter more than ten meters long and one meter high. The barrier was made of wood and stone materials, with a surprisingly high defense of 300 points.
“Is this a defense facility acknowledged by the game system?” Song Jian’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise. Unofficial buildings would not have a defense value, so even if players built something with great effort, its defense value would still be zero, easily destroyed with a single attack.
Making a product recognized by the game system is definitely not something ordinary players can do. Song Jian curiously looked at the group of players behind the barrier.
Soldiers!” Song Jian’s heart sank. Despite their diverse equipment, the unique aura emitted in their sitting and standing postures was completely different from that of a player-formed team.
“Hello, are you also here to enter the Frost Cave dungeon?” A man with glasses stood up from behind the barrier, grinning as he greeted Song Jian.
Yes!” Song Jian nodded his head. He had seen these people when triggering the Holy Flame Pearl’s illusion, but couldn’t get a clear look due to the high angle. It seemed that they had been here for a long time. He didn’t know if they hadn’t cleared the dungeon, or couldn’t even enter it, so they just stayed here.
“This dungeon is not so easy to clear, ordinary people can’t even get close,” Councilor Wang adjusted his glasses, glanced at Deputy Commander Sun beside him, and smiled.
“Is that so?” Song Jian’s mouth twitched slightly as he stepped towards the Frost Cave.
Deputy Commander Sun and the others watched as Song Jian crossed the boundary without hesitation.
Given his high strength, he probably wouldn’t suffer any effects from the environment around the Frost Cave,” Captain Zhou whispered.
“Not necessarily,” Councilor Wang shook his head, “This is the power of heaven and earth. No matter how high his attack power, if his resistance is too weak, it’s still hard to move inside.”
“Even if he can withstand the cold weather, he still won’t be able to open the dungeon gate. It’s all in vain.” Deputy Commander Sun shook his head.
“Deputy Commander, should we try to approach such a player and pull him into our alliance? If we can win him over, it will definitely help our exploration in the game,” Councilor Wang said.
We can.” Deputy Commander Sun nodded, “This game is too mysterious, and our country has already started paying attention to it. We have too few people entering the game. The district political commissar has suggested to those above us to recruit strong players in the game. On one hand, it strengthens our own power; on the other hand, it also helps control the danger level in the real world. You know, many things in the game can be brought into the real world.” “Deputy Commander, look, he doesn’t seem to be affected by the cold climate inside,” Captain Zhou suddenly said.
Everyone looked at Song Jian, and indeed, ordinary people could only walk five or six meters before succumbing to the cold, but Song Jian showed no signs of stopping, having already gone more than ten meters deep and getting closer and closer to the Frost Cave.
At that moment, Song Jian suddenly sensed danger and jumped to the side. An ice spike over three feet long appeared where he was standing just a moment ago.
Not far away, an ice monster made of condensed ice slowly crawled out from the snow and roared at Song Jian.
“An Ice Monster, a Level 15 Elite BOSS. To kill it, at least five Level 15 players are needed. That player is in danger!” Captain Zhou frowned. They had discovered this monster during their exploration, and it took more than a dozen companions, with five of them being seriously injured, to kill one Ice Monster. Since then, Captain Zhou rarely sent people to scout the area.
“Get ready to provide support at any time!” Deputy Commander Sun commanded seriously.
“Wait a moment. When he asks us for help, that’s when we step in. It’s better to help him in his time of need, so he will be grateful,” Councilor Wang whispered.
Boom!
A loud noise erupted in the snowy field. Song Jian, wielding his Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword, was actually fighting the giant Ice Monster that was over two meters tall. For a moment, ice and snow flew around, Sword Qi whirled, and the Ice Monster roared and growled. The ground even began to tremble slightly.
