Online Games: From Professional Gold Farmer to Night King

heat.

This was Wang Xing's only feeling about the volcanic area: nothing but heat.

Moreover, this heat is not the stuffy kind, but an extreme dryness and baking, as if you are locked in an electric oven. You can even clearly feel the moisture in your body being evaporated little by little.

Fortunately, there is no "dehydration" attribute in the game, otherwise the two of them would probably have collapsed halfway there.

Even when flying hundreds of meters above the volcanic area, the extreme heat remained unchanged.

Fortunately, Wang Xing's mount was a god-level pet like Xiao Tan. If it were an ordinary purple or red-level pet, it probably wouldn't have been able to fly to the Futu Mountain area.

"Mount Fuji is just ahead!"

Hearing Xue Ji's shout, Wang Xing looked into the distance.

Sure enough, a colossal and terrifying volcano appeared before them, some tens of miles away!

Judging by its altitude alone, it must be at least five or six thousand meters high!

Putting everything else aside, just climbing up there would probably take a whole day.

Not to mention that there are countless monsters blocking the way on this mountain. If we really fight our way up step by step, it might take two days to reach the top.

"Phew...it's so hot..."

The closer you get to Mount Fuji, the higher the temperature of the surrounding heat.

When Wang Xing arrived within the range of Mount Fuji, the heat turned into heat waves, spreading outwards in waves. Even with Xiao Tan's formidable strength, he was still unable to fly due to the powerful heat waves.

"Let's go down. This must be special terrain. We can't get here using flying pets. We have to climb up step by step."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xing controlled Xiao Tan to land on the ground.

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Wang Xing felt that the ground temperature seemed even lower than that in the sky, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.

"roar!"

The moment the two landed, a monster covered in lava crawled out of the ground and threw a boulder filled with magma at them.

[Lava Monster]: Normal

Rating: 95

Health Points: 150 million

Defense: 24000

Magic Defense: 24000

Attack: 28000

Skills: Lava Throw, Rock Smash, Lava Zone

...

Upon seeing the monster's attributes, Wang Xing couldn't help but gasp. "Good heavens! No wonder this is the ultimate map; even the mobs' attributes are outrageous! With these attributes, I'd believe you if you said it was a boss outside! Except for its health, its other attributes are completely at the level of an 85-level boss."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xing summoned Night Raven.

As dozens of magic arrays appeared, 91 night crows appeared in mid-air.

Without Wang Xing's command, Night Raven automatically launched Shadow Bullets the instant the Lava Monster approached.

Critical Hit! -1687788

-168778

Bleeding -49650

...

Critical Hit! -1687788

-168778

Bleeding -49650

...

Two shadow bullets landed, and the once-aggressive lava monster instantly collapsed and died.

...

[Congratulations to the player for defeating the Lava Monster! You have gained 10010 experience points.]

...

"Ten thousand experience points? That's so high! I wonder how many there are. If they spawn frequently, this is the best leveling spot!"

Previously, when Wang Xing killed monsters of level 85-90, he would only get around 7000 experience points at most. He didn't expect that monsters only 5 levels higher would give him 50% more experience points, which surprised him.

"only..."

Wang Xing opened the panel and frowned as he looked at the experience bar, which had only increased by 0.1%.

"After reaching level 90, I've killed quite a few monsters along the way. I wouldn't dare say many, but at least several hundred. However, I've only gained 0.1% experience points! Based on that, I should have gained about three to four million experience points by now. But with so many experience points only gaining 0.1%, doesn't that mean... it takes three to four billion experience points to go from level 90 to 91?!"

"Holy crap! This is twice as much experience as leveling from 89 to 90!! Even at my leveling speed, it would take me almost a week of grinding monsters to reach level 91. For other top players, it would probably take at least ten days to reach level 91. If that's the case, it would take at least four or five months to reach the level 99 threshold."

The thought that it would take several months to level up from level 90 to 99, even longer than the time it would take to level up to 90 in the game, made Wang Xing gasp in astonishment.

"If I'm not mistaken, the reason why the leveling speed is slow at this level is to give players enough time to acquire equipment and skills, thereby narrowing the gap in strength between top players and ordinary players. Moreover, after level 90, the national war will begin, and players will most likely spend their time in the national war until level 99. The only question is how long this national war will last."

"If it could continue indefinitely..."

As a certain possibility came to mind, Wang Xing's lips slowly curled into a startling smile. "That would be fantastic! If anyone dares to start a war with the Dragon Kingdom, I'll teleport to their server and wreak havoc, making them the next Sakura server!"

"Hey! What are you thinking? Why are you laughing so evilly?"

Looking at Wang Xing's smile, Xue Ji couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine, and felt uncomfortable all over.

Wang Xing glanced at Xue Ji but didn't say anything more. "Let's not talk about that now, let's clear out the monsters first, and try to reach the summit tonight! I'm also very interested to see just how powerful the legendary sacred beast really is."

...

...

As they advanced, although the monsters here were extremely powerful, even comparable to elite monsters and mini-bosses in other areas, in Wang Xing's eyes, let alone mini-bosses, even lords would only take a few seconds to defeat.

Only a King-level BOSS might pique his interest.

"Halt! No entry allowed!!!"

Just as the two were engrossed in slaughtering monsters and leveling up, a deafening roar came from the flowing lava in front of them.

A giant, crimson lava hand emerged from the magma and crashed down.

"Bang!"

Another giant hand appeared and slammed into the ground with a loud bang.

Wang Xing stared at the terrifyingly large hand, each finger over a meter thick, a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes. "Good heavens! With that kind of aura, it's definitely a King-level BOSS! To be a guard dog for Orochi, it must be at least a level 99 King-level BOSS, right?"

wow~

The molten lava surged, and with the help of his hands, a huge body emerged from the lava.
