Comprehensive Network: The Chosen One Who Started from Speed-farming and Destroying Ashes

Chapter 2 An Unmissable First Time (Two Updates!)
Resigning went more smoothly than I expected...

Of course, the Earth Online character template of an older single youth and orphan might have played a role in this?
Or perhaps, they simply had no chance of being recognized or commended by their unit this year?
Yi Qingfeng didn't want to think about it too much.

He ultimately failed to cleanly sever ties with the past, instead spending an afternoon handing over the responsibility to the unfortunate man he had temporarily found to take the blame.

Perhaps giving it more time to observe and experiment is a more prudent approach.

But Yi Qingfeng was no longer willing to waste his time on this.

He's thirty—he has savings to support himself in doing some impulsive things...

"Holy crap? You really quit your job?"

Seeing Yi Qingfeng in the process of handing over his duties, his familiar colleagues stood there dumbfounded.

Resigning on a whim is a classic, cathartic experience that even the most lowly and incompetent employees have to go through.

But whether or not to actually put it into action is another matter entirely...

In short, unless there are other big jobs.

This will probably be the most explosive insider gossip topic in the next two weeks.

As for what happens next?

With National Day approaching, gossip that misses the opportune moment won't stay on the trending topics for long...

Until I walked out of the company gate.

Yi Qingfeng did not turn around...

…………

…………

Yi Qingfeng did not linger in the town, but went directly to the county.

He plans to buy some supplies.

Of course, these are also sold in the towns.

But buying a motorcycle helmet, work gloves, and an axe right after quitting your job doesn't seem very appropriate...

The comprehensive network panel that appeared before him was not just the information he had seen before.

In addition to this information, there is also an interface that can be switched with a finger.

There, however, another display is made:
"

Daily dungeons (not yet officially unlocked):
1. A first time you can't miss:
Dungeon Type: Apprentice Trial

Dungeon Challenge Level: None
Dungeon Difficulty: Easy (Difficulty cannot be selected or unlocked in Trial Dungeons)
Dungeon monsters: Low-level goblins

Dungeon Rewards: Unlock daily dungeons and other basic privileges
Dungeon death penalty: Soul Weakness (one natural day)

Instance description:

Like countless legends taking their first step on their epic journey:
Find those goblins, and smash their skulls!

"

Daily dungeon – this is undoubtedly a term that evokes a strong sense of déjà vu.

This is not an unfamiliar term to any contemporary game enthusiast.

However, when it was accessed through a system called Zongwang, Yi Qingfeng was less certain.

Everything wasn't so unfamiliar, but it wasn't so familiar either...

On the dungeon description page, Yi Qingfeng found the option to teleport into the dungeon.

Of course, he didn't try it rashly.

He possessed the caution and restraint expected of a man in his thirties.

But then again:
Even when catching rabbits in the wild, you wouldn't be empty-handed...

We still need to prepare some household items.

Yi Qingfeng knew about goblins.

This is a type of monster that is widely used in various games and novels.

Generally speaking, it is a synonym for weakness and mowing the grass.

But it is precisely because of the abundance of images derived from it.

Yi Qingfeng couldn't say for sure what kind of goblins were in this cross-network instance.

But anyway, it's still better than a dog...

Following this logic, if a group of goblins is greater than a pack of dogs… Yi Qingfeng looked at his newly bought axe and suddenly felt that it wasn't quite as handy as he thought…

…………

…………

Although it is already the White Dew season, the temperature has not dropped yet.

However, compared to the height of summer, the heat has dissipated considerably.

Using the power of the air conditioner, Yi Qingfeng put on an old cotton coat.

It's better to be in the spotlight than to be completely shut down...

Compared to a body that lacked exercise in the past, the body now doesn't seem to be any stronger.

But for Yi Qingfeng himself, it was a completely different feeling.

It's roughly like the difference between the same computer running continuously for a week and the computer being shut down and restarted...

However, in Earth Online, the reboot that belongs to humanity is obviously not so wonderful for the individual.

Among many everyday items, cotton-padded clothing is a good protective gear:
Anyone who has been bitten by a dog can immediately relate to this.

As for motorcycle helmets?
Every motorcycle enthusiast who has paid their tuition can deeply appreciate its value.

As for those who haven't paid?

Often, the opportunity to pay tuition is missed...

In comparison, the trial instance in the comprehensive network has a much higher margin for error.

Yi Qingfeng had previously tried clicking on this so-called "soul weakness".

The above provides the corresponding explanation:
"In the 'Soul Weakened' state, the character's all attributes and recovery efficiency decrease, and the use of some skills is subject to protective restrictions. (Source: Comprehensive Network Version Basic Data Library)"

This is also why Yi Qingfeng, without making perfect and thorough preparations, attempted to open the trial instance.

It's just a tough day, and it heals faster than a cold...

Yi Qingfeng thought to himself.

After putting on his work gloves, Yi Qingfeng tried swinging the axe in his hand.

I don't know if it was the result of wearing a cotton coat in this temperature, or if there were other restless factors surging in my blood.

Yi Qingfeng could feel a surge of heat.

Without further hesitation, Yi Qingfeng directly clicked on the "Enter Dungeon" button in the void.

The next moment, as he operated the device, new text appeared on his retina:

"Network notification: Transporting your character to the trial instance..."

coming soon!
In his last glimpse, Yi Qingfeng saw the chat software still running on the computer desktop...

…………

…………

"Network notification: Teleportation successful. Character has been successfully teleported to the trial instance..."

When Yi Qingfeng regained his senses, he found himself in a mountainous area overgrown with shrubs.

Looking around, all you see are low shrubs and scattered rocks.

The withered grass and trees, covered in gravel, painted the earth with a desolate appearance...

Subconsciously looking up, Yi Qingfeng saw a constellation of stars completely different from those on Earth.

This truly shocking scene prevented him from taking immediate action.

Until—he heard a series of rapid, low growls…

It was a roar that Yi Qingfeng had never heard before.

It sounds like a dog's bark, but it's much sharper.

Unlike the roars of the animals he was familiar with, which often carried various meanings.

The moment he heard those roars, he could feel the undisguised cold malice and evil within them!
Theoretically speaking, distinguishing good from evil by sound is a very abstract approach.

But at this moment, Yi Qingfeng felt this ferocity without any basis!
And so the engine, forged from flesh and blood, began to roar!
The intense breath blurred everything through the windproof mask!
And without further obstacles:

A group of short, humanoid monsters sprang out from the bushes not far away!

The battle is about to break out!
