Chapter 74 A Great Harvest
Chapter 74 A Great Harvest
Although most of the cleanup work was handed over to the regular troops, the special operations team was still busy until dusk before it was able to disband.
Lin Ze did not return to apartment 403. Instead, he put on the replica mask on the way and eventually arrived at a secluded house.
This was something he temporarily "borrowed" after killing a criminal professional and using a replica mask to impersonate that person.
After learning that his sister and Chen Han were coming to the North District, he had the idea of finding a hiding place.
To avoid my sister accidentally discovering my secret one day.
He knew very well that his younger sister loved to create little surprises.
Once inside, Lin Ze locked the door behind him, changed his shoes, and headed straight for the living room.
The cool moonlight streamed through the window, spreading a hazy, silvery frost across the living room floor.
The cascading light cut obliquely through the dim space, just enough to envelop the three figures in the living room.
Jingzhe leaned against the left wall, half of her face shrouded in shadow, making it impossible to see her expression.
On the winter solstice, Dongzhi sat on the sofa, her head slightly raised, as if savoring the night.
Opposite her, Shuangyue sat upright, her hair and white training clothes tinged with moonlight, her clear eyes reflecting the light like shattered silver.
The three who had stirred up a huge storm in the North District during the day, keeping the legion busy, were now quietly staying in the living room.
If outsiders saw this scene, their eyes would probably pop out of their sockets.
Lin Ze chuckled, sat down on the sofa, took the [Drilling Honeycomb] permission card from Shuangjiang, and examined it intently.
The moment my skin touched the card, detailed information about the [Drilled Honeycomb] suddenly flooded my mind.
This is a low-level dungeon with a challenge level of 1-3.
Generally speaking, the lower the dungeon challenge level, the fewer potential points and rewards you will receive after clearing it.
Dungeons like [Drilling the Honeycomb], with challenge levels of 1-3, are already among the lowest tier of all dungeons.
Lin Ze estimated that the maximum potential points he could obtain by clearing the dungeon would not exceed 3000.
Even with the rewards from killing monsters, the total won't exceed 3500 points.
As for the rewards for clearing the stage, the chances of getting excellent-grade cards and rare items are extremely slim, and even the chance of getting common-grade cards is not 100%.
Even so, Lin Ze couldn't help but smile as he looked at the cards in his hand.
After all, this is a copy that he completely controls.
Dungeons are not only a way to acquire potential points and upgrade skill levels, but also a key source of various extraordinary materials and cards.
A fully controlled instance means stable and continuous output, enough to support the growth and expansion of a guild.
Gangquan became the largest guild in the North region precisely because of this lowest-tier dungeon.
"It doesn't matter if I have fewer potential points, I can just clear the game a few more times."
"With this dungeon, upgrading skills will no longer be a problem."
Lin Ze was overjoyed.
One of the conditions for advancing the Extreme Slaughter Sword to three stars is to max out two rare-level slashing skills and one rare-level speed skill, which requires more than a million experience points.
Relying solely on the eight fixed dungeon challenge opportunities per month from the detachment, and the dungeon attempts exchanged for military merits, it's uncertain when it will be possible to reach the maximum level.
Besides, there are other skills that also need to be upgraded.
But now that we have the [Drilling Hive], the speed of skill upgrades will definitely be greatly accelerated.
From now on, while he's at work during the day, his clone can stay in the apartment and grind dungeons.
The only problem is that Blood Frenzy and Ultimate Liberation cannot be used.
After all, he wasn't there, so he couldn't update the status of his clone in time.
But it doesn't matter. With the current strength of the three clones, they probably won't need Blood Frenzy or Ultimate Release.
At night, he can switch the position of any clone to continue farming dungeons, while the freed-up clones go out hunting.
perfect!
Maximum efficiency!
"However, there's still one problem..."
Lin Ze looked at the cards in his hand.
【钻孔蜂巢】:挑战等级1~3级,存续时间剩余201天15小时31分钟28秒。
The time is still decreasing in seconds.
All copies have a limited lifespan, ranging from one or two years to several decades, and will eventually crash and disappear when the time limit is reached.
According to intelligence within the Legion, Gangfist has held this instance for over three years, so it's not surprising that it has so little time left.
It is worth mentioning that, although there is no clear and convincing theoretical basis, experience to date shows that overuse of dungeons will reduce the core energy of the dungeon and accelerate the reduction of the dungeon's lifespan.
This is also why the North District branch controls the number of times its members can challenge dungeons each month.
However, this had no impact on Lin Ze.
Even if he and his clone were to grind the dungeon 24 hours a day, they would still fall far short of the dungeon's operational limits.
As long as the duration of existence is not reduced, 200 days is enough for him.
He refused to believe that he couldn't find a new copy to replace it in such a long time.
Coming back to his senses from his joy, Lin Ze put away the access card and began to examine the storage marks he had seized from Gangquan earlier that day.
There were a total of fifteen storage marks, all of which came from the core high-ranking members and cadres of Gangquan, including Pang Lie.
In addition to the items originally in the inscription, it also contains all the spoils looted from Gangquan headquarters warehouse and Pang Lie's safe.
Overall, it was a great success!
First, there are a wide variety of extraordinary materials.
Common types include frost-patterned steel, black thorn iron, static electricity barbs, and dew crystal... there are no fewer than a hundred varieties.
There are also many precious materials such as Star Iron, Crimson Cloud Gold, and Nightmare Spider Silk.
All of them were taken out and could fill the entire living room, with some still left over.
"good."
Lin Ze nodded in satisfaction.
Because of their origin, these extraordinary materials are difficult to sell.
But he doesn't plan to sell it; he intends to keep it for his own use later.
It's important to know that there are quite a few professions that require extraordinary materials.
Such as alchemists, weapon makers, puppeteers, and earthworkers.
These are all major consumers of extraordinary materials.
If I want to switch to this kind of career in the future, I will definitely need to use a huge amount of extraordinary materials.
Furthermore, if Tian Shi were to actually establish a guild, he would also need a large amount of extraordinary materials.
It's better to start preparing now.
Besides extraordinary materials, the most seized items were various types of equipment.
More than 90% of them are enchanted equipment mixed with extraordinary materials.
There are not many that truly possess quality grades, and most are only of the ordinary grade.
There are only two pieces of the finest quality.
They are the [Rock-Smashing Gauntlets] and the [Mad Lion Sword].
The former was seized from Pang Lie.
The latter was found in the Gouken headquarters warehouse.
As everyone knows, it's very difficult to get equipment from dungeons; the drop rate is even lower than that of rare items.
Most of the equipment currently in circulation is forged by professionals such as weaponsmiths using extraordinary materials.
Due to limitations in their abilities, most weaponsmiths can only forge ordinary-grade equipment.
There are fewer than one in ten blacksmiths who can forge high-quality equipment, and they would be treated as honored guests in any guild.
If you join the legion, you will immediately receive the rank of warrant officer and enjoy excellent benefits.
As for the blacksmiths who can forge rare-grade equipment... well, Lin Ze had never heard of such a person in the North District.
"I've never heard of Gangquan training blacksmiths who can forge high-quality equipment. These two pieces of equipment were most likely obtained from elsewhere."
Without hesitation, Lin Ze gave the Shattering Rock Gauntlets to Shuangjiang and the Mad Lion Sword to Jingzhe.
"The clone's equipment is even better than the original's."
Lin Ze clicked his tongue.
He's still using a regular-grade longsword obtained by consuming military merits; his equipment is actually inferior to his clone.
"I need to find a way to get myself a high-quality longsword."
