Chapter 24
Instance Dungeon Hall (2)
“He’s the Mayor now. It’s normal for him to consider the well-being of the people in the city,” Jiang Shan said with a smile.
The woman glanced at Jiang Shan and said, “Are you still a member of my Jiang family?”
“Ahaha…”
“I heard that Jiang He came to look for you today?” The woman could not be bothered to continue arguing with Jiang Shan and asked directly.
Jiang Shan nodded slightly and said, “Yes, she asked me for a small favor.”
“Is she alright?” The woman asked after a moment of hesitation.
Jiang Shan felt speechless and said, “Why don’t you just ask her directly?”
“This girl has grown up. She doesn’t want to tell everything to her old mother anymore,” the woman sighed softly. The dominance she had previously disappeared instantly, replaced by deep resentment.
Jiang Shan’s mouth twitched slightly and he said, “You probably asked her something that annoyed her again, didn’t you?”
“I didn’t!”
Seeing the woman’s reaction, Jiang Shan quickly raised his hand, conceding defeat.
“Your boss, whatever you say. By the way, do you know that the kid from the Mo family has changed his profession and is very familiar with Little Jiang He?”
——————————————————————————-
The next morning, Mo Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at the time. He instantly jumped up from the bed. “Oh no, oh no! I overslept! I’ll be late…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Mo Xiao froze and sat back on his hard bed. “Wait… I have already traveled through time. I don’t have to go to work.”
Mo Xiao stretched lazily, although he had the thought of going back to bed for a little longer.
However, he managed to suppress his laziness and quickly freshened up.
Just as Mo Xiao was having breakfast, a notification sound echoed in his mind.
[Special Announcement: All combat class students, please gather at the Instance Dungeon Hall!]
“The instance dungeon hall?” Mo Xiao’s eyebrows furrowed when he saw the message. “Wasn’t it said that we could only start doing instances at level 10? Why are they asking everyone to go to the instance dungeon hall now?”
Mo Xiao had heard about instances from others before, but it was not something openly discussed.
However, regarding instance dungeons, they usually wouldn’t directly mention it.
Even if the school taught instances, they would not call people to the instance dungeon hall.
After all, the instance dungeon hall was the core of the entire base city.
Almost all the combat-class professionals in the city would go to the instance dungeon hall to level up.
Looking at the information on the interface, Mo Xiao quickly finished his breakfast.
After quickly finishing his breakfast, Mo Xiao looked at the information on the interface and immediately opened the system’s navigation to head towards the instance dungeon hall.
——————————————————————————-
The instance dungeon hall was the core and most important place in the entire base city.
Not only that, but it also housed the most organized and reasonable trading market.
Materials, equipment, and skill books could all be traded here.
Periodically, auctions were held for players to auction high-level items.
Of course, these were secondary. The most important aspect was the instances within the instance dungeon hall.
The levels of the instances varied in each base city. Although Yicheng Base City was also a base city, it couldn’t compare to those larger cities.
The highest-level instance dungeons here were only level 30. After reaching the first class, leveling up here would become somewhat challenging.
The lowest-level instances were at level 5. Although the low-level instances ranged from level 1 to 5, as long as you underwent a class change, you could enter.
However, inside these instances, there would always be a set number of elite monsters and bosses.
These monsters were not something a level five novice could handle.
Moreover, compared to the wild monsters in the wild, the monsters in the instances were clearly more difficult to deal with.
That was why the base city had regulations that required newcomers to familiarize themselves with their abilities before entering the instance dungeons to fight monsters.
Level 10 was the minimum requirement.
Guided by the system map, Mo Xiao quickly arrived at the instance dungeon hall.
It was a magnificent and ancient palace, distinct from the rest of the city.
This also highlighted its uniqueness.
Inside the hall, many people were already organizing their equipment and supplies, preparing to start leveling up in the instances.
“Mo Xiao, you’re here!”
Just as Mo Xiao was observing the grand hall in front of him, the familiar voice of Jiang He suddenly sounded in his ears.
“Okay.”
Looking at Jiang He who had come to his side, Mo Xiao nodded slightly and did not say anything.
Jiang He was used to Mo Xiao’s cold demeanor and cheerfully said, “I heard that just yesterday, more than 30 people from our batch died.”
Hearing this, Mo Xiao also looked at Jiang He in surprise. “Really?”
“We received the news from the Mayor’s Mansion. They said there are many mutant elite monsters in other places, and many people disappear when they encounter them. Luckily, you’re safe,” Jiang He said, his face filled with relief.
Mo Xiao opened his mouth slightly in response and changed the topic, “Do you know why the school called us all here today?”
“I heard from Uncle Jiang Shan that the Mayor felt that the problem of mutant elite monsters could not be resolved for the time being. In order to ensure our relative safety, he activated the dungeon authority in advance and let us all enter the instance dungeons to level up.” Jiang He answered truthfully.
“After all, in instances, even if you can’t defeat the monsters, you can just run away. As long as you can return to the entrance, you can come out directly. It’s safer than being outside.”
Hearing this, Mo Xiao nodded thoughtfully, “I see.”
Jiang He asked with a smile, “Mo Xiao, what level are you? Do you want us to go to the instance dungeon together later? I’m already level six, so I can definitely help you.
“Although I haven’t been to the instances, my family has told me all the information about the first few instances, and even some strategies,” she added.
Hearing this, Mo Xiao glanced at Jiang He: “I’m already level 10”
Jiang He’s eyes widened instantly, and she realized that the equipment Mo Xiao had seemed extraordinary.
“As expected of the person I think highly of. You’re amazing,” she said.
Just as Jiang He was happily expressing her admiration, that piercing voice resounded in their ears again.
“Mo Xiao?! You’re still alive?!”
Hearing that voice, Mo Xiao’s expression darkened, and he calmly looked towards the source of the voice. He saw Su Wei staring at him in disbelief.
When he had sent people to follow Mo Xiao yesterday, he had already considered him dead.
Although Su Wei couldn’t contact those people afterward, he assumed that they had stolen Mo Xiao’s orange-tier weapon and fled. He never expected that Mo Xiao was still alive.
“How could you still be alive? I sent a level 30 person to deal with you!”
Su Wei blurted out and quickly covered his mouth.
Mo Xiao looked at Su Wei, his gaze incredibly cold and indifferent, and calmly said, “Those trash could never be my opponents. Don’t worry, it’s your turn next. I hope you stay put and don’t give me a chance.”
After saying that, Mo Xiao ignored Su Wei and turned his head to chat with Jiang He.
Just as Su Wei was standing there trembling with a pale face, Li Xun finally arrived.
“Ah, sorry, everyone. It was a last-minute notice from the school, and I arrived late. My apologies!” Li Xun said, seeing the strange expressions on the students’ faces.
Looking at Li Xun’s sudden appearance, Mo Xiao raised an eyebrow and said, “Li Xun is in Life Occupation, right? Can he really guide us?”
Jiang He’s expression also became strange, and she said, “I don’t think so.”
Li Xun noticed the students’ perplexed expressions and smiled, “Don’t worry! I’m just here to collect information about your levels and numbers. I’m just a life professional. I’ve never entered an instance dungeon before, so I can’t lead you guys.”
Hearing this explanation, the students heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as Li Xun started counting, a figure suddenly descended from the sky and appeared beside Jiang He.
“Yo, Mo Xiao, right? How was yesterday~” Jiang Shan looked at Mo Xiao with a smile on his face. Without thinking, he directly used the Detection Technique on Mo Xiao.
“What the f*ck?! You’re already Level 10?!” Jiang Shan’s eyes instantly widened. “What the f*ck is this panel? This is an attribute that can only be obtained at Level 10?! Are you kidding me?!”
Looking at Jiang Shan’s inexperienced expression, Mo Xiao speechlessly rolled his eyes at him.
“What a fuss.”
