Ancient Ark: A Dark-Themed Historical Survival Game

The deep-sea nightmare "Yingdu Ruins" has been cleared!

This was undoubtedly earth-shattering news for all the chosen ones and for the entire old Suiyang!

"Did I go on a rampage? I've completely cleared the Yingdu Ruins dungeon!"

"Is this announcement reliable? I have my doubts!"

"This thing can be faked? I, Xiao Yu, am the only true god!"

"That's right!"

"Although the team has many members, Xiao Yu's real name has already appeared four times in the announcement!"

"Fei Wuji, Nangwa, Meng Ying, and even the final boss, King Chu Ping Xiong Ju, were all taken down by him alone!"

"That's too powerful!"

"I need a strategy guide from an expert!"

"Stop dreaming. Such crucial intelligence wouldn't be easily revealed by anyone. Master Xiao Yu can use this to further widen the gap between himself and the other big shots!"

"..."

Amidst the heated discussion...

Something unexpected happened.

Xiao Yu directly released the dungeon guide, which included almost all the detailed information about the eight burial chambers, three mini-bosses, and the final boss of the Yingdu Ruins.

Not only that.

Copy structure route.

Various traps and pitfalls to be aware of.

These details are also quite detailed.

Everyone was shocked and in an uproar.

Holy crap!

"It's a strategy guide!"

"A super detailed guide!"

"This is enough to save all players from dozens or even hundreds of wipes. The reduced trial-and-error costs and the increased overall revenue will be an astonishing figure!"

"That's so damn loyal!"

"Aaaaah, even if I'm dead, nailed to a coffin, I'll still shout with my decaying vocal cords—Xiao Yu is awesome!"

"I'll kneel down in reverence for this master!"

"..."

Wang Yang just reached level 5.

But he felt no sense of accomplishment or joy at the moment. The dungeon kill progress reports that were constantly broadcasting on the old channel felt like heavy slaps to his face.

Until the customs clearance announcement is issued.

It left him completely bewildered and questioning the meaning of life.

As for Xiao Yu's final actions, he found it even more unbelievable and couldn't understand why the other party would do such a thing.

Is it just to win people's hearts?

Is it really worth it?

"Damn it! Xiao Yu really succeeded in clearing the land!" Li Zihao exclaimed, his face full of resentment. "But how did he even do that?!"

Various shocks and frustrations.

It is spreading within Wang Yang's team.

Yang Yong frowned and said, "Xiao Yu cleared the Yingdu Ruins with three not-so-strong teammates and obtained such detailed intelligence. I think he is not only very strong himself, but also has a very strong reconnaissance talent."

"That is indeed the only reasonable explanation."

"Xiao Yu not only cleared the game and collected such detailed information, but he also directly made all the information public... I really don't understand this move!"

"Regardless, with this intelligence, we'll be able to clear Nightmare mode soon!"

"..."

As everyone discussed it.

Wang Yang quickly adjusted his mindset.

He said in a deep voice, "I initially thought Xiao Yu had the talent of a general, but now it seems that I greatly underestimated him..."

Before Xiao Yu suddenly appeared.

The only Chosen One who could rival Wang Yang in prestige was Su Qingmeng, but Wang Yang looked down on this proud daughter of heaven from the bottom of his heart.

This pampered heiress, born with a silver spoon in her mouth, lacked experience in building her own fortune from scratch and had no understanding of the intricacies of power politics, thus posing no threat to her position as captain.

Xiao Yu is different.

This person is not only powerful and mysterious, but also showed the aura of a king from an early age. Although I have not yet come into contact with him, I can feel a kind of aura that even I have to respect.

did not expect.

This is an ark.

Such a person has actually appeared.

However, Wang Yang was not discouraged by this; instead, he developed an even stronger fighting spirit.

The Deep Sea Era.

Many heroes rose up.

Everyone has unlimited potential.

Countless people who were previously unknown have had the opportunity to achieve great things.

This is precisely the charm of this era!

Wang Yang was mentally prepared to face and compete with heroes from all over the world; he believed in his own will and ability.

"Zihao, contact Ji Chang for me. As long as the Wu clan helps me become the captain, we can discuss the conditions they offered before."

"yes!"

Li Zihao nodded.

After Wang Yang obtained the spirit of King Helü, the Wu clan tried their best to win him over, and the two sides have already carried out a lot of cooperation. Now it seems necessary to further deepen the cooperation.

"Also, everyone get ready, we must be the second team to clear the dungeon!"

The morale of the crowd was boosted.

We must take immediate action.

……

Su Qingmeng's team also noticed the latest announcement.

Zhao Xuezhu's voice trembled: "The ruins of Yingdu have been breached! Xiao Yu really did it! He almost single-handedly took down all the first-strike victims of the corruption!"

The others all looked incredulous.

"How did you do that?"

"I have to say, this guy is very strong."

"He shared all the intelligence, but why did he do that? I don't understand!"

"..."

Everyone admired Xiao Yu.

They were also puzzled by their actions.

"Is there even a question? He's extremely confident! So confident that he thinks it's no big deal even if the information is released!"

After reading the guide, Su Qingmeng's expression became very complicated.

"I think Xiao Yu truly believes that even if Wang Yang and I obtained the intelligence, we would never be able to catch up with him, let alone surpass him."

"This guy is different from Wang Yang."

"He probably never really considered us as competitors... He actually looked down on us!"

The others looked at each other in bewilderment.

Xiao Yu harbored no hostility towards Wang Yang or Su Qingmeng. Or rather, why would an elephant try to outdo an ant in strength?

Is Xiao Yu really that confident?

It almost reached the point of being arrogant and disdainful.

"Although he's despicable, I have to admit that he'll be a stronger opponent than Wang Yang, and also a more respectable one!"

Wang Yang is nothing but a nouveau riche.

Su Qingmeng refused to submit to him no matter what.

Xiao Yu is a bit different. He will most likely have had a fortuitous encounter that is no less than Wang Yang's, and he also possesses a spirit that the latter lacks.

This kind of person poses a greater threat!

"First, focus all your efforts on studying this guide, then rebuild your team and clear the Yingdu Ruins as soon as possible!"

Zhao Xuezhu and the others were invigorated.

"yes!"

"I have this guide."

"We can do it!"

"Whether it's Xiao Yu or Wang Yang, we will not back down and will definitely support Sister Qingmeng as captain!"

……

The news that Xiao Yu had cleared the "Yingdu Ruins" spread rapidly not only among the Chosen Ones but also throughout the entire city of Suiyang. The four clans of Suiyang and the various ancestors were all shocked by this.

however.

After exiting the instance.

Xiao Yu, however, kept a low profile.

Return to your room on the Ark to rest.

The body's vital energy reserves are approaching 600.

He chose to continue practicing the skills of the Six Secrets of Military Strategy.

[Soul Essence -450.]

[You have learned the skill "Slow as a Forest" through the spirit of "Sun Tzu, the Master of War"!]

【Qi Xu Ru Lin Mantra】, Purple Skill... Consumes 15 Spirit Points. You can increase the maximum health and spirit of any unit by 20 points, normal abnormal resistance by 30, recovery speed by 50%, and the cooldown speed of all skills below purple quality by 100% for 600 seconds... Current skill level 1, maximum skill level 9, consumes 500 Spirit to upgrade.

I've mastered all four spells!

The Lin Curse, one of the Four Curses, is also very powerful.

It can increase health, mental strength, and general resistance.

What is conventional resistance?

This is different from mental abnormality resistance.

Mental resistance mainly refers to resisting abnormal mental states such as dizziness, hypnosis, and confusion.

Conventional resistance mainly refers to resistance to abnormal physical conditions such as poisoning, sluggishness, and bleeding.

Not only that.

Lin Zhou can accelerate various recovery processes.

This will be a very useful skill in the future.

Xiao Yu has mastered four purple skills in a short period of time, which is indeed a huge advantage that other chosen ones can hardly imagine.

but.

We must not be complacent.

Purple skills are good.

However, it is extremely difficult to cultivate.

Reaching level 9 (the maximum level) in one go is too difficult.

Once you have mastered the four spells to level 4, you can combine them into the "Four-Character Spell of the Military Saint".

Both the "Four-Character Mantra of the Military Saint" and the "Yin-Yang Technique of the Military Saint" are red-quality techniques, and together they form the epic-level technique "Six Techniques of the Military Saint".

The four spells are combined into one.

It can not only increase power and potential.

It is also a prerequisite for cultivating the Yin-Yang theory of the military sage.

Any epic-level cultivation technique is extremely complex, and mastering it completely is a long process.

After a half-day rest.

Xiao Yu arrived at the market in Suiyang City.

As a former main city that has continued from the Spring and Autumn Period, Suiyang Market is also full of the sense of the times.

The city was surrounded by walls with gates on all four sides. With the main road as the axis, various shops were lined up on both sides, resembling a "hundred shops map" from the Spring and Autumn Period.

From taverns, salt shops, and rice shops to clothing shops, cloth shops, and pharmacies, as well as cattle, sheep, pigs, fish, and poultry, everything was available.

During this period, the vast majority of shops operated on a front-shop-back-workshop model, meaning that most shops combined production and sales functions, with artisans directly facing consumers.

There is also a service industry.

For example, inns and even brothels.

If you treat this place as a tourist destination, you can find a lot of novelty and fun.

Xiao Yu walked into the largest restaurant. There were four familiar faces there: Jiang Xiaoxia, Zhao Gang, Lu Dahai, and Zheng Liangping.

The purpose of this gathering with my partners is twofold: to celebrate the successful launch of the Nightmare dungeon and to make arrangements for future developments.
