Survival in the Core: I'm writing a guide for the entire server.

Along with the leaderboard, Lin You also posted a strategy guide at the perfect moment.

The post title is excessively concise: "Underground Dungeon Challenge Guide".

However, after clicking on the post, all the players were stunned.

"What...what kind of divine strategy guide is this?!"

The post contains a complete map of all five levels of the Abyss Dungeon.

Every corner and every passageway was clearly marked.

But that's not the most shocking thing.

Even more thoughtfully, he also marked the shortest route map on each floor.

Tell the player how to get to the lower level entrance as quickly as possible.

"This map is so detailed!!"

"Did Lin You clear all five levels of the Abyss Dungeon?!"

"How did he manage to run through all five floors of the map and draw it all by himself?"

"I suspect that Boss Lin You isn't even human."

"No wonder he's been so quiet all day; he was holding back something big!"

"Lin You, well done! With this map, I can climb the rankings tomorrow too!"

The comment section was flooded with replies instantly, and the number was increasing every second.

Even players in neighboring newbie zones learned about this through a temporary cross-zone chat room.

In the cross-region chat room, players from other regions were completely dumbfounded.

They now only hate that this damn temporary channel doesn't have a cross-region posting area, so they can't see posts from other newbie zones.

"That Lin You from your district... actually released the complete map of the Abyss Dungeon?!"

"Wait, shouldn't this kind of thing be kept secret? What's he trying to achieve?"

"The highest-ranked player in our region hasn't even reached the fifth level, yet someone in your region has already drawn the complete map of the dungeon?!"

"This is the 'strategy master' you guys were talking about? This is outrageous..."

"I take back what I said before, this Lin You is indeed formidable."

Players in the 25535 newbie zone were overjoyed and flooded the chat room with messages.

"Now you know how powerful our Boss Lin You is, right?"

"Who was it that said Boss Lin You 'deserted in the face of battle'? Come out and take your punishment!"

"Our Boss Lin You is drawing a map for you, understand?"

"A bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well, all they know is to croak."

Lin You's strategy guides don't just include maps of the event dungeons.

At the end of the post, he also attached something else.

That's the formula for the "fluorescent agent".

As expected, the comments section exploded with discussion after seeing the effects of the fluorescent potion.

"A fluorescent potion? Increases light intensity by 50%? And it can be combined with other lighting?!"

"With this potion, the fifth floor will be just as bright as the first floor!"

"Master Lin You has given us the keys to unlock the game!"

"Wait a minute, it seems like someone in the other newbie areas is saying they saw someone whose entire body was glowing blue..."

"Yes, yes, yes! I've heard of him too! What was his name again... 'The Blue Light Monster'?"

"I remember someone seeing a figure glowing blue all over in the Earth's core. It was incredibly fast and impossible to catch."

"I'd heard about it too, but I thought he was just seeing things. I didn't expect it to be true!"

So, someone asked a question directly in the comments section.

"Boss Lin You, that 'blue light weirdo,' you wouldn't happen to be him, would you?"

Lin You saw the comment and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

He typed a reply.

"It's just the effect of the glowing potion; it makes me glow after drinking it."

The news immediately caused an uproar in the comments section.

"Holy crap! It really is Boss Lin You!"

"I knew it! There was no blue-light monster here. It turns out it was just Boss Lin You who took some kind of drug!"

"Wait, Lin You, when did you go to the outer region??"

"It should be in the secret realm, right? Doesn't the event have cross-server matchmaking?"

"I see... So Master Lin You has already fought against experts from other districts!"

"No wonder he could draw a complete map of all five levels; he's practically invincible in this secret realm!"

Lin You looked at these comments and didn't offer any further explanation.

He closed the forum, leaned back in his chair, and let out a long sigh of relief.

Yanling peeked out from his arms, squinted at him, and then shrank back inside.

Vivian flew over lightly and skillfully sat on his shoulder.

Two little feet dangled in mid-air, swaying back and forth, humming an unknown lullaby.

"Master looks a little tired, let me sing you a song."

"fine."

Lin You casually opened the system panel, secretly looking forward to it.

"I've finished posting today's strategy guide. My strategy points should have increased quite a bit by now."

Strategy Points: 1350

After the Abyss Dungeon strategy post was published, the rate of point accumulation accelerated significantly.

But Lin You noticed a problem.

Although this guide post saw a rapid increase in views...

However, its staying power is far less than that of the previous "The Journey to the Center of the Earth".

Not long after that, the growth rate has already shown signs of slowing down.

"Logically, the information from the Abyss Dungeon should be far more valuable than the basic strategy guide, so why are my points increasing more slowly?"

Lin You frowned in thought, and soon figured out the key point.

"Because most players did not sign up for the 'Newcomer Battle'."

The Abyss Dungeon is a special secret realm that can only be entered by registered players.

According to the data displayed on the event page.

The number of people who signed up for the event in the No. 25535 beginner zone was less than 20,000.

Other players might enjoy the spectacle, but the post offers them limited practical help.

Strategy points naturally accumulate slowly.

"That's a bit of a loss..."

Lin You shook her head, but didn't dwell on it too much.

After all, writing guides is his "job," so whether the price increases or decreases, it's all profit.

He opened the trading market and began collecting materials to make planting pots.

[Planting pots: 5 clay, 2 wood, 10 soil blocks]

Clay, wood, clods of earth.

These materials are not uncommon.

There are plenty of sellers in the clay and timber markets.

Soil is everywhere, and you can easily collect a lot of it while mining.

Lin You has created several acquisition lists.

[Buying: Clay, Price: 2 copper coins/piece]

[Buying: Timber, price 1 copper coin/piece]

As soon as the list was released, players began selling it in bulk.

Clay x20, Wood x30...

A series of transaction information flashed before Lin You's eyes.

He accepted everything without question, and the money flowed in and out like water.

[Transaction successful! You have received 20 "Clay"!]

[Transaction successful! You have received 30 "Timber"!]

The mud and forest are naturally serene.

I accumulated a huge pile while mining, and it's practically sprouting mushrooms in my treasure chest.

With all the materials ready, Lin You walked to the basic worktable and began making planting pots.

[Crafting complete! You have obtained 1 "Planting Pot"!]

[Crafting complete! You have obtained 1 "Planting Pot"!]

In less than ten minutes, all five planting pots were completed.

Lin You moved them to the first car of the mine cart and arranged them neatly against the wall.

Five planting pots were lined up in a row, filled with loose soil.

"Vivian, the rest is up to you."

Lin You took out fluorescent tulip seeds from her backpack and handed them to the flower fairy sitting at the control panel.

Vivian took the seed, happily flapped her wings, and flew above the planting pot.

She carefully buried the seeds in the soil, then gently patted the surface of the soil with her little hands.

Your follower "Vivian" has planted 5 "Glowing Tulip Seeds"!

[The passive skill of the Flower Fairy "Vivian" has been activated: Plant growth speed increased by 200%!]

[Estimated ripening time: 8 hours]

"It only takes eight hours to mature, that's good."

Lin You nodded in satisfaction.

With Vivian's passive ability to accelerate plant growth.

He was able to continuously harvest the crops from the planters.

After handing the planting pots over to Vivian, Lin You sat down at the control panel.

"Time to farm today's 10 waves of undead invasions."

Even if you only get 1 experience point for killing a low-level monster due to the level difference.

But the good thing about the undead invasion is that there are many enemies.

A hundred or two skeletons and zombies combined can yield a considerable amount of experience.

That should be enough for him to level up to level 10 and unlock the new job skills!

"Summoning the dead in a flower field isn't a good idea... Let's find another place."

On the minimap, there are still several unexplored areas around the glowing flower field.

He chose a direction and began digging.

The mine cart moved slowly forward in the darkness.

Yanling and Vivian were both resting, and the carriage was much quieter.

All that could be heard was the sound of the drill bit rubbing against the rock wall and the crackling of the flames burning in the furnace.

Lin You leaned back in her seat, idly browsing the forum.

Just then, a private message from a friend popped up.

Elena: Mr. Lin, are you there?

Lin You raised an eyebrow and typed a reply.

[Lin You: Yes, what's up?]

Elena: That's great! I was worried I might be bothering you.

Elena: Well, someone just added me as a friend and said they have something important to talk to you about.

[Elena: His name is "Roger," Mr. Lin, do you know him?]
