Online Games: From Professional Gold Farmer to Night King

After reading the post, Wang Xing's mind was filled with the words "epic public mission".

Although the rewards for public missions are relatively low, it cannot hide the fact that these are epic missions. Just like raid strategy missions, the rewards are still quite generous.

"I was just wondering what to do, so I thought I'd take a look at this cave!"

"Brother~" came Wang Yue's slightly lazy voice from the stairs.

Wang Xing checked his phone; it was almost 10 a.m.

"Good heavens! You guys really slept until noon! It's almost ten o'clock!"

Wang Yue snorted and walked into the kitchen. A moment later, she brought a bowl of tomato and beef brisket rice to the dining room.

"We're going shopping today, do you want to come?"

"I'm not going."

"Why not go? We'd like you to carry our bags."

"Damn it! So you guys made me come along just to carry your bags?"

"Otherwise what?"

"..."

"I need to log into the game. A mysterious dungeon has appeared in Xuan Yue City, and it's an epic-level public quest. Let me see if I can complete it."

"Oh~" Wang Yue responded, continuing to eat her rice on her own.

Seeing this, Wang Xing shook his head helplessly, clearly having no way to deal with her.

"You guys eat, come back early, and don't forget to do the raid tonight."

"understood."

Back in his room, Wang Xing tidied up and then lay down in the gaming pod.

With a flash of light, Wang Xing re-entered the game.

...

...

Looking at the public task displayed on the bulletin board, Wang Xing accepted it without hesitation.

[Ding~ Do you accept the epic public quest "Explore the Cavern"?]

"yes!"

[Successfully accepted the epic public quest "Explore the Cavern"! Quest Description: A mysterious cavern has appeared in the southwest of Xuan Yue City, teeming with insect-like monsters. Players are tasked with delving into the cavern, uncovering the threat, and eliminating it. Quest Rewards: 300 million experience points, 10 gold coins, 20 free attribute points, 5 skill points, 1000 reputation points, 1 random silver equipment of the same level, and 1 rare skill of your class.]

...

"Oh? Not bad! If these bugs give me enough experience points, I might be able to level up again after completing this quest. Hmm... good... very good..."

Wang Xing nodded repeatedly, and then walked towards the arrow on the minimap.

According to the map, the cave is about 30-40 li away from Xuan Yue City, and it would take about two or three hours to travel there.

Of course, Wang Xing wouldn't just walk around aimlessly. After roughly calculating the exact coordinates, he directly entered a similar coordinate.

"Teleport!"

With a flash of light, Wang Xing disappeared from the spot.

Meanwhile, on the other side, somewhere southwest of Xuan Yue City, Wang Xing appeared out of nowhere.

Opening the mini-map, I found that the cave was only about ten minutes away from his location.

"Not bad, it saved me two hours of travel time!"

A dozen minutes later, at the foot of a hill, Wang Xing finally saw the entrance to the cave.

The entrance is not very large, about two meters wide and only one and a half meters high. Moreover, the entrance is dug downwards, so players can only slide down.

Through the beam of light, one could barely see the flat ground below the slope. It was fairly spacious, and there were occasional rustling sounds, which were probably from those so-called "insect" monsters.

"It's just ahead! Hurry up, don't let others get there first! This is an epic public quest with such generous rewards, there will definitely be a lot of people vying for it, we need to speed things up!"

Just as Wang Xing was about to enter the cave, a shout suddenly came from behind him.

Judging from the footsteps, there were at least several dozen people approaching, clearly an elite squad.

Wang Xing quickly hid behind the hillside, quietly listening to the conversation of the newcomers.

"Brother Chen, it seems like nobody's here."

"It's perfect that no one's around. I heard the monsters here respawn pretty quickly and give a lot of experience points, so let's treat this as a leveling opportunity. We have 10 shield warriors and 10 priests this time. I refuse to believe that this lineup can't explore the depths of the cave!"

"Hehe...of course! With our strength, it'll be a piece of cake!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

Let's go!!

Wang Xing lay on the back of the hillside, quietly listening to the dozens of people in the team enter the cave. He could even hear the sounds of skills being used inside, as well as the roars of monsters.

A few minutes later, Wang Xing entered the cave and immediately found the monster corpses that had not yet respawned.

The monster on the ground resembled a canine, but its entire body was covered in a layer of carapace, with spikes on its back, and its head was completely different from that of a dog.

Sharp fangs, massive claws, and eyes that still gleamed with ferocity even in death—a single glance was enough to send chills down one's spine.

"This should be the jumping bug mentioned in the post, right? But... it doesn't seem to have much to do with 'jumping'. It's more like a berserker bug..." Wang Xing muttered, then followed the direction of the corpse forward.

After walking for only a minute or two, they saw colorful skill effects ahead, as well as shouts from players and roars from monsters.

Wang Xing did not summon any beasts or pets, but instead used the special effects of his costume to hide in the cave.

Upon reaching the corner, Wang Xing saw about forty or fifty players battling against hundreds of jumping insects.

About twenty meters behind the springtail, there was another giant insect-like monster that looked like a caterpillar.

The monster is about two meters tall and as thick as a bucket. It is greenish-blue all over and has an interesting attack method: it opens its mouth and sprays a dark green acid.

Wang Xing could clearly see that when the acid hit the players, it produced four-digit damage values, which were clearly true damage.

"These people are doomed," Wang Xing muttered.

Sure enough, less than five seconds after Wang Xing finished speaking, a shield warrior died from acid corrosion.

A breach was created, and before the warriors behind could even push through, a leaping insect broke through the defenses and charged straight at the players behind it.

"Holy crap! We've over-aggroed! Warriors and rogues, get out of there!"

The commander "Brother Chen" did a decent job, but unfortunately, the team members were too weak and couldn't withstand the fierce attack.

Although there was a priest behind him, his stats were too low to keep the shield warrior's health up one-on-one.

Slowly, a second shield warrior died, followed by a third, a fourth, a fifth...

A little over a minute later, with the last player killed, the once noisy dungeon returned to silence.

The dozens of items on the ground prove that a group of players had been here before.

"Now that you're all dead, it's my turn!"

"Summon Night Ravens! Summon Giant Bears! Summon Fire Spirits! Summon Willow Spirits! Summon Big Hair and Little Hair!"
