Chapter 206: Chapter 111: Surge of Players, Rule Node (Please Vote with Monthly Ticket)_3

He planned to invest all the earnings from the past two months into enhancing his strength and consider whether to turn on profit mode or partial profit mode after two more months.

"Big Shark incoming!"

His heart cheered as he accelerated towards a black fish that was swimming slowly.

Upon noticing him, the black fish suddenly flipped its tail and accelerated explosively, moving at a speed that Jiao Chen found unbelievable.

The information analysis presented the introduction of the black fish in his mind:

[Extreme Speed (Second Generation Primordial)]

Hunting Level: 6

Target Introduction: A Primordial Monster that controls the "Extreme Speed" trait, capable of burning Qi-Blood to increase movement efficiency.

...

Damn!

Seeing the words "Second Generation Primordial," Jiao Chen’s eyes widened in shock.

Before exploring the game world, he specifically went through several novice strategy posts on the forum.

These strategy posts all emphasized Primordial Monsters.

It can be understood that Primordial Monsters are extremely rare "Treasure Monsters" in the game, defeating one could bring millions of Human Clan credit coins in profits.

These aren’t just monsters; they’re moving opportunities to strike it rich.

Jiao Chen’s eyes instantly turned red with greed. Although the Hunting Level of this Primordial Monster reached 6, and he was highly unlikely to be a match for it.

But he didn’t want to miss the slightest chance.

He was afraid that if he missed out, he would later want to slap himself for it.

This is a Treasure Monster in the game, and even Human Clan players who had entered the game two months earlier had only captured about twenty or so.

Damn, going all out, charge!

Jiao Chen clenched his teeth fiercely and chased after the Extreme Speed Fish that was almost out of sight.

But he soon realized that his prided swimming speed, which had won him the "Wave Breaking Race" runner-up title twice in a row in Fish Harbor City on Earth and allowed him to chase dolphins, was nothing compared to the Extreme Speed Fish, which disappeared from his sight in the blink of an eye.

Not willing to give up, Jiao Chen chose to persist, hoping that the Extreme Speed Fish would rest somewhere ahead.

After more than ten minutes of high-speed swimming, Jiao Chen was so exhausted that his body was sore, but the Extreme Speed Fish still hadn’t appeared in his sight.

How infuriating!

Not willing to continue on, Jiao Chen forcefully threw a punch into the water, his expression filled with frustration.

The chance to get rich quick had slipped by him, he was so upset he wanted to cry.

Just as he was about to turn back, his gaze was captured by a gorgeous sea-bottom Crystal Palace in the deep sea.

The construction of the palace seemed less like the work of intelligent life, and more like nature’s own craftsmanship, shining with mesmerizing colors amidst the endless waves and dark waters.

The entire palace was made of crystalline, transparent crystal, each piece emitting a spectrum of colors, like many intertwining rainbows, breathtakingly beautiful.

Sunlight penetrated the surface of the sea, reached the bottom, and refracted and scattered through the crystal, bathing the entire palace in a layer of soft radiance.

Although he was far away and could only see the rough contours, such a magnificent sight still made Jiao Chen marvel.

The first thing that came to mind was the possibility of hidden rewards inside the palace.

Like the rewards given for exploring regions, one needed to get closer to trigger them.

Without hesitation, he immediately dove towards the sea-bottom palace.

Only as he got closer did he realize that a large group of aquatic creatures resembling oversized deep-sea shrimp surrounded the entire palace.

Through analysis feedback, he learned that these were a type of underwater creatures called Shadow Scale Shrimp Guards.

Their bodies were peculiarly structured, with bodies covered in faint blue scale armor, and through their translucent foreheads one could see an inner glowing meat ball beating like a heart. Their heads were slightly flat, and two huge compound eyes rotated independently, in front of them were a pair of powerful forelimbs that had evolved into enormous pincers, while their backs grew a pair of transparent, thin wing-like fins, which gently fluttered in the water when swimming, aiding in their rapid movement through the deep sea.

As they swam, the currents around their bodies were guided by their unique bodily structures, creating dazzling trails of light.

After a quick sweep with his eyes, he found most of the Shadow Scale Shrimp Guards had Hunting Levels above 25.

Realizing that with his own strength he could not possibly enter the Crystal Palace, Jiao Chen opened the map function, noted the coordinates, and prepared to turn back.

Just then, the Challenger Tips popped up in his mind and across all channels:

[Challenger Tips (All Channels): Sea Domain - Domain Node "Crystal Palace" discovered.]

[Crystal Palace (Domain Node)]:

Domain Type: Rule

Territory Characteristics: Gathering

Characteristics Introduction: By assembling collective strength, obtain continuous enhancement of additional strength.

Domain State: Occupied (by Shadow Scale Clan)

As the Challenger Tips for all channels popped up,

The sea domain map was automatically updated, and a small crimson marker appeared on the location of Crystal Palace, clearly indicating the presence of a Domain Node on the map.

The new Purification quest also appeared at this time.

[Challenger Tips (All Channels): Unclaimed Domain Node discovered, triggering the global task: Purify the Crystal Palace.]

Purify the Crystal Palace (Global Task):

Task Requirement: Occupy the Crystal Palace and capture the Domain Node.

Task Reward 1: Expand the area of Imperial Tomb Village and gain the enhancement of Rule characteristics.

Task Reward 2: Rewards are distributed according to contribution rankings, with a maximum of 30,000 Body Refining Experience.

...

The appearance of the Purification task attracted the attention of all players.

This was also the first Purification task in the Colorful Mist Coast Region, and players from various regions began checking the specific coordinates of the Domain Node on their maps.

Particularly the guild leaders.

The Domain Nodes they captured in the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range were tough nuts to crack, and as they grew, the Black Tide grew alongside them. To take down a Domain Node in the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range, the major guilds needed to coordinate and join forces for a chance of success.

Hearing the Challenger Tips now of a Domain Node being discovered in the Colorful Mist Coast, they immediately thought of changing their target.

The point is, this is a Rule Node.

The three Domain Nodes they captured in the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range were all resource nodes, bringing continuous resource exploitation benefits to the players.

But in the Guidance introduction, Rule Nodes are the core of the Domain Nodes.

Capturing each Rule Node provides all players a permanent enhancement effect, a powerful trait that resource nodes cannot provide.

Although they did not understand the meaning of the "Gathering" Rule Node characteristics introduction.

They still developed a strong interest in purifying the Crystal Palace.

Also interested were the newly joined Gills Fish Clan and Abyss Fish Clan members.

Knowing that the global task could bring substantial rewards, they all set off towards the Domain Node.
