Chapter 515: Hidden Dungeon (Ask for a Monthly Pass!) )
[Trigger D-rank side quest: Wonderland Change!] 】
Description: Wonderland seems to have undergone some subtle changes and is waiting for you to discover...... You can go to the investigation to discover the hidden truth behind it.
Objective: Discover new changes in areas such as Wonderland, Nature's Forest, Gatzt Town, Haze Plains, and River of Blood, discover them and achieve new harvests.
Rewards: 5,000 XP, 80 Silver, and 20 Circus Contribution.
"There's a new mission! Dear brothers and sisters!"
Kotou Kim excitedly walked through the living room of the low-rent apartment, stammered upstairs, and knocked on the doors of his companions one by one.
A moment later.
The Polaris squad go-ers gather on the living room couch and begin to discuss the matter.
"Wonderland has changed? Is there any hidden update?"
Su Keying looked curious and said softly.
"It should be like this, otherwise we won't notify everyone...... As I just asked, the circus players have triggered this quest, and most of them have something new waiting for us to discover for ourselves."
Dongyang nodded and replied.
"So what are you waiting for? Hurry up!"
The dog head stood up suddenly, and rubbed his hands a little impatiently.
"Brother Dog, I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry...... We haven't decided on a specific plan yet."
The Dragon King hurriedly persuaded.
"Plan?"
Doghead Jin looked dazed.
"The Wonderland map is so big, you want to explore it from corner to corner! Idiot!"
Epine glared at him.
Doghead Gold gritted his teeth, rolled up his sleeves and was about to fight.
Polaris on the side patted him, and then nodded:
"The map is really too big, and it's not convenient to go through it all again in a short period of time...... According to the mission description, we can also know that this new change is sub-regional, so we can start with the simplest and most familiar nature forest."
"Agreed!"
The bald was the first to echo, raising his right hand like a schoolboy who was actively answering questions.
"I agree!"
The Dragon King and Nana followed in the footsteps of Brother Beizi and expressed their positions one after another.
Everyone immediately made a few comments, but generally agreed with Polaris' plan, and the natural forest and the small town of Gatzt were the areas they were most familiar with, and it would be easier and more efficient to explore.
Soon, everyone took action, and collectively entered the fairyland through the token [Silver Serpent Ring], and then purchased an admission ticket at the statue of Jack...... Now that it's the 2.0 "Dark Resurgence" version, the threshold for redeeming admission tickets has been reduced to a very low level, and you only need 10 gold pounds or 10 contribution points to get your hands on it, and circus players will basically go in and brush it when they have time.
Of course, their main scope of activity is limited to the natural forest and the small town of Gatzt, and only top players like Polaris Squad have pushed their progress to the Haze Plains.
After all, the monsters in each area have different levels of danger, and they generally show an increasing trend.
And the reason why circus players can be far ahead is because of this Wonderland dungeon, which has a steady stream of monsters, which is a good place to brush up on experience leveling, and the extraordinary materials produced can be sold for money, and more occult resources can be purchased after making money...... This creates a virtuous circle.
That's why the circus has always been so appealing to players.
Standing on the shore of the lake, the Polaris team raised their ticket, and with a snap, it spontaneously ignited until it turned to ashes.
At this time, after everyone looked at each other, they jumped into the lake, accompanied by a few plops, they only felt that the world was spinning, and when they came back to their senses, they found that the environment had changed, and the surrounding was a gray forest.
"Let's go!"
Polaris lowered the brim of his hat and said calmly.
He bought a dark blue top hat out of nowhere,
And learned Jack's dress, and asked a solar system craftsman to customize a metal staff sword.
The trench coat was lifted, and he took a step, rustling on the thick dead leaves.
Everyone has already run in to a very tacit understanding, and they don't need too many words to know what to do...... The team members followed the footsteps of the North Star in a neat formation, Chenxi released the detection magic scroll, Honey Grapefruit used his sharp and extraordinary vision to be vigilant, and the Dragon King even spread his arms and turned into a large falcon flying low above the heads in front of everyone to explore the path, Doghead Gold and Oblivion Mowgli were on the left and right sides, and Dongyang Centaur Maniac was guarding the back of the team......
Everyone has their own tasks and responsibilities, and they can be played around, but when they do get into the groove, they don't let down the trust of their peers and friends.
Half an hour later.
Woohoo!
Several card throwing knives slashed precisely through the neck of a rat-man in armor, and with a few dings, the rusty chain mail was sliced open and blood spurted.
Immediately, a strong wind struck, and the metal cane slammed into the rat-man's helmet, smashing a huge dent. Polaris drew his staff and sword, slashed it around his neck, and reflexively kicked the back of the rat-man's head again.
Click!
A hideous rat's head rolls across the parabola.
Polaris played a sword flower, shook off the blood stains, and immediately put the sword into the staff.
Click.
Turning around, he lifted his hat, looked at the corpses of rat-people scattered all over the ground, and frowned:
"Still haven't found ......"
"These rats have some food for us now, but fortunately, the experience points are still enough...... It's just that we're almost out of the Nature's Forest, and we haven't noticed anything new yet."
Dongyang drank a bottle of tranquilizer and walked over to say.
The current strength of the Polaris team is between Sequence Eight and Sequence Seven, and the average sanity value is around 40, but this still can't support them to stay in the fairyland for a long time, so they need to be replenished with a tranquilizer.
"Pack up the loot and keep walking."
Polaris said.
Dongyang sighed and nodded, and immediately turned around to greet everyone.
A moment later they came to the cobblestone path again, and when they passed a boulder, they saw the black cat Nata, who had killed them in seconds, still crouching on it.
"Kill!"
Polaris didn't talk nonsense either, and gave the order directly.
It used to be, and now they are not what they used to be, and they are confident enough to overcome this elite monster that stands in the way.
The members of the squad moved their hands unequivocally and cohesively rushed forward.
"Damn outsiders! Don't want to pass through here!"
Unlike the black cat Nata in the world, it was still young, and it picked up the man-tall giant axe and jumped towards the Polaris team......

After several minutes of fierce fighting, the Polaris team managed to kill Nada without any danger.
With Pumpkin, Doghead Gold, Forgotten Mowgli and Dongyang as the front row to contain the rest of the team members, the rest of the team members output without pressure, and finally Polaris flashed behind the black cat through the "Great Changeling", and gnawed off its head with a crocodile hand.
[You killed the "Trail Warden" Nada and gained 1500 experience points!] 】
Su Keying stepped forward and stared at the black cat corpse that slowly disappeared on the ground, with a puzzled expression.
"Eh, you say, this cat doesn't look like a cadre on Mr. Jack's team...... The captain of the Black Cat Samurai Team seems to be calling 'Nada, come on.'"
"That's a bit like that."
Polaris groaned, then frowned slightly.
"Could it be that Mr. Jack can take the creatures out of the fairyland? But how can I explain this, they still keep brushing out......
"There must be some connection between this, maybe digging deeper can trigger a hidden plot...... But at the moment, we don't have the strength to do so
Contact."
Dongyang walked over with the others and said.
Polaris and Su Keying nodded and didn't delve further.
At this time, when the body of the black cat Nata completely disintegrated and dissipated, a page of manuscript paper was left on the ground, which was shining, and it seemed to be some kind of mission prop.
"Something exploded!"
The dog's head was quick-eyed, and he hurriedly bent down to pick it up.
[Completed D-rank side quest: Wonderland Change!] 】
[Get mission rewards: 5,000 XP points, 80 Silver Lords, and 20 Circus Contribution Points!] 】
[You have passed the test of "Trail Keeper" and unlocked the Wonderland hidden dungeon "Jakespett's Past"! 】
[[Prologue: Red Apple Prison] has been unlocked!] 】
He was slightly stunned, then turned to the others and said:
"Did you get the prompt too?"
"Uh-huh......
Polaris and the others nodded.
Its Middle East Yang took a deep breath, his eyes showing anticipation.
"I really didn't expect that the new change turned out to be a hidden copy!"
"How about it, why don't you go in and have a look?"
Kotou Kim asked from the side.
"Of course!"
Dongyang clenched his fists and smiled.
"This is a hidden dungeon! And looking at the name, this is a series dungeon, and we've only unlocked the prologue right now...... Mr. Jack's past should be related to him, but I don't know what good things will be produced in it!"
"Since everyone has no opinions, let's go ahead without further ado."
Polaris looked around and smiled.
Kotoujin raised his hand slightly, and the manuscript paper he was holding suddenly burst into flames, turning into ashes and dissipating.
Everyone felt that an invisible force had come into play, and the surrounding scene was distorted, and the light gradually dimmed......
I don't know how long it has been.
Suddenly, they found themselves lying on the ground, as if they had just woken up. Everyone quickly stood up and found themselves in a sealed cell, damp and dark, and the creaking of rats could be faintly heard.
[Enter the dungeon "Jakespet's Past......]
[Currently "Prologue: Red Apple Prison]
[Quest Main Quest Objective (Choose 1 of 2): Help Jack escape from prison / Help the Red Apple Church suppress Jack]
The Polaris team looked at the pop-up prompt on the panel and couldn't help but glance at each other. Suddenly, the scarlet prompt box slowly flickered-
[Countdown to the start of the dungeon: ten, nine...... Two, one]
[The dungeon has officially begun!] 】
"Hey man, what's going on with these guys?"
As the countdown ended, they faintly heard a guard outside the cell whispering.
"Huh...... According to the priest's will, they will be sacrificed tonight."
Another guard replied.
The members of the Polaris team immediately realized that the prototype of this copy was the past that Mr. Jack had experienced...... And the young man who sat on the ground without saying a word on the side was not him in the past!
"-Brothers, what are we going to choose?"
Kotou Kim speaks in the chat channel.
"—still need to ask? That must be helping Jack escape! If you dare to choose the opposite, I'll kill you right now, believe it or not?!"
Epide immediately threatened.
Several people then spoke one after another, but Polaris finally decided on the team's choice:
"-Let's help Mr. Jack this time, according to the original trajectory, he escaped from prison, so this is a good trend, and the difficulty will be relatively small...... Our main purpose is not to clear the customs, but to understand the general process so that it can be convenient for the next two weeks."
"-Okay, understood!"
"-I see, Brother Beizi."
The plan was finalized
。
Ignoring the men and women huddled in the corner, Polaris walked straight up to Young Jack, stretched out his hand with a smile on his face, and said:
"Hello, my name is Polaris."
