Chapter 257 Observing the AFK Mode
Chapter 257 Observing the AFK Mode
Not long after, a crisp system notification sounded at the right time. Yuan Bao looked down and saw that it was a recruitment notice for a team quest in the difficult mode of the series of storylines issued by "Tianxing Old Monster".
A hint of surprise flashed in Yuan Bao's eyes, and he quickly clicked to view.
The task interface shows that the team has recruited three members and is two members short of being full.
Yuan Bao rubbed his chin, thinking about how to further improve the team's overall combat strength.
Just as she was about to take a closer look, the system thoughtfully popped up a confirmation window with an automatic response countdown of 10 seconds.
The countdown numbers kept jumping, and the flashing blue light seemed to be urging Yuan Bao to make a decision as soon as possible.
Yuan Bao's lips curled up into a satisfied smile, and he couldn't help but marvel inwardly: This system is so thoughtful! Not only can it automatically push tasks, but it also has an automatic response mechanism, saving a lot of time and energy!
Yuan Bao quickly checked the team's combat strength in 2 seconds.
My goodness! This team, with only three members, is much stronger than the "Yi Xiao Nai He" team she joined last time. She absolutely has to apply to join!
With that in mind, Yuan Bao decisively clicked "confirm" before the countdown ended and joined the "Old Monster of Tianxing" team.
The system immediately notified the user that the addition was successful.
Driven by intense curiosity, Yuan Bao chose the AFK mode.
Her gaze was fixed on the screen, her hands clenched unconsciously, her heart filled with anticipation. She couldn't wait to see just how strong she and her battle spirits were in the default output mode, precisely calculated and set by the system, and what amazing sparks they would create in the upcoming adventure.
Immediately afterwards, another player joined the team.
Without the slightest hesitation, the team leader, "Tianxing Old Monster," decisively clicked to enter the story instance.
In an instant, a dazzling light flashed, and when the light dissipated, they found themselves in the mysterious and unpredictable land of the underworld.
This story picks up where the last one left off. Yuan Bao and his group successfully helped Hua Niangzi and her husband cross the Bridge of Helplessness, and now they have officially entered the Yellow Springs.
The eerie underworld was shrouded in a thick fog, and the stench of decay filled the air, while faint, mournful cries echoed all around.
Just as everyone was cautiously moving forward, a staggering woman appeared in their field of vision – she was the boss of this story instance, "Nana".
Nana had served in the underworld for many years and had witnessed countless cycles of life and death, so her heart was already as still as water.
However, not long ago, she unexpectedly ran into her former unfaithful lover.
The man showed no remorse and instead made provocative remarks before disappearing into the thick fog in an instant.
Nana's years of pent-up resentment erupted instantly, driving her into a frenzy.
She exuded an eerie black aura, her eyes were bloodshot, and she vowed to find the unfaithful man and disturb the peace of the underworld.
Just then, the system notification sounded: The team's mission is to calm Nana, who has gone mad, and help her find her former lover hiding in this complex and dangerous underworld, so as to prevent the collapse of the underworld's order.
Yuan Bao and his teammates exchanged glances, gripped their weapons tightly, and stood ready for battle. A thrilling adventure was about to begin...
Captain Tianxing, the old monster, quietly assigned tasks, and everyone's expressions grew increasingly solemn.
Yuan Bao saw that the battle spirit he had secretly summoned in AFK mode was preparing to face the unknown challenge ahead, but just then, Nana suddenly let out a sharp roar and pounced on the group like a ghost...
Captain Tianxing, the old monster, took a deep breath, steadied himself, and strode towards the surging black aura emanating from Nana. With a reassuring smile on his face, he shouted, "Nana! Calm down! We're here to help you!"
Nana's hands, which had been waving wildly, suddenly stopped, and her blood-red eyes glared at him fiercely.
Meeting Nana's imposing gaze, the old monster Tianxing said confidently, "Give us one minute! Within one minute, we will definitely find that heartless man for you!"
Upon hearing this, Nana's murderous aura faltered slightly. After a moment of silence, she slowly lowered her hands, letting out a low growl: "Fine! If you dare to lie to me, the Yellow Springs will be your burial ground!"
As soon as Captain Tianxing the Old Monster finished speaking, the entire team immediately sprang into action like a precisely operating machine.
Yuan Bao saw the four divine beasts that had already been summoned and were standing to the side while he was in an AFK state.
With a long roar, the Azure Dragon soared into the air, using the clouds and mist to survey the entire Yellow Springs, its sharp eyes carefully searching every corner.
With its agile speed, the White Tiger moved like a white lightning bolt through the intricate stone forest of the Yellow Springs, using its keen sense of smell to capture subtle scents.
The teammate's hands moved rapidly, and he chanted incantations, summoning a group of small sprites that emitted a ghostly glow.
These little sprites, like nimble fireflies, scattered and ventured into every hidden corner of the underworld, feeding back the information they gathered to the rogue in real time.
Teammate Two quickly drew his bow and shot an arrow. The specially made arrows, glowing with light, streaked across the sky, each one bearing a tracking rune.
As the arrow was fired, Meteor kept a close eye on the information fed back by the runes, accurately determining the target's location.
The teammate, wielding three sharp blades, moved nimbly through the dark corners, leaving no suspicious spot unchecked.
As he searched, he remained vigilant, keeping a watchful eye on his surroundings to avoid falling into a trap.
Time ticked by, and everyone's hearts were in their throats.
Just as the countdown was about to end, the Azure Dragon let out a high-pitched roar and locked onto a hidden cave.
Teammate Two immediately adjusted the direction of the arrow according to the Azure Dragon's guidance, and a beam of light shot accurately into the cave.
Immediately afterwards, a painful howl rang out, and a disheveled figure tumbled out of the cave.
"Found it!" Yuan Bao shouted excitedly.
The crowd quickly surrounded him, firmly restrained the unfaithful man, and brought him to Nana.
In normal mode, if the unfaithful man is successfully identified, the crisis will be resolved smoothly and come to an end.
But now that we're in hard mode, things are far from that simple.
When the crazed Nana grabbed her former lover, instead of regaining her senses, the black aura surging around her intensified, and she let out a deafening roar, wildly waving her hands and attacking the crowd.
Captain Tianxing, the old monster, reacted quickly and decisively, shouting loudly, "Everyone, pay attention! Enter battle mode!"
The teammates instantly understood and quickly formed a battle formation, ready for battle.
Yuan Bao, who had activated his auto-play mode, held the chubby little 9 in his arms, his brows furrowed, looking puzzled: "Little 9, since we can't avoid a fierce battle in the end, why did we go through all this trouble to find that scumbag?"
Little 9 circled in the air, emitting a soft blue light, before replying, "My lady, although it's all about fighting, finding the unfaithful man will allow Nana to vent some of her resentment and weaken her fighting power."
It will be easier for us to deal with it then.
Yuan Bao nodded thoughtfully, his gaze fixed firmly on the battlefield, continuing to observe the battle situation between himself and the battle spirit in idle mode.
At the same time, Nana, filled with intense hostility, pounced on him with bared teeth and claws, and a thrilling and fierce battle began.
