Upon hearing the question from Hand Rubbing Diamonds, the Chubby Orange Cat immediately changed the topic: "Well, why don't we hurry up and set off? We've been delayed here quite a while."
The Iron Black Pot was already getting a bit impatient, so he quickly chimed in: "Yeah, let's go. I see you've got that gourd with you, Diamonds, it's super classy. Taking a sip during battle, that's both elegant and dashing."
Hearing this, Hand Rubbing Diamonds didn't dwell on the matter further and immediately laughed: "Alright, let's head out now."
The eager group immediately applied to leave the underground city.
The underground city indeed only has the Wall of the Brahma Land as its Defense Magic Array, but it's not the only one.
There are also other Earth Element magic arrays, just not defense magic arrays, and they're only of Middle Tier, so they're not very practical.
Of course, Gold Panning in the Sand, from Fang Ka's perspective, does have its uses occasionally.
For example, the entrance and exit of the underground city is a very concealed mechanism. After activating the mechanism, one can reach the location of the Wall of the Brahma Land through the passage at the entrance.
And in the mechanism and passage, the Middle Tier magic array can, when someone triggers the entrance mechanism and enters the passage, form the triggering person's shape and surrounding terrain using earth in the corresponding magic array over at the royal palace.
Although, normally it's of no use, as this island itself is already very deceptive, and the underground city entrance mechanism is extremely well-hidden, making it nearly impossible to find unless you know the location beforehand.
Let alone now, Aiman has set up another ring of magic arrays in the underground city, making the possibility of discovering this island almost zero.
However, if Fang Ka arranged for someone to guard and open the door at the royal palace, it could still be somewhat useful.
That is, to see if incoming players close the mechanism, sealing the entrance after entering the passage.
If any player is inconsiderate, arrangements can be made to rush over and close the entrance mechanism, and report to Fang Ka, giving that rude player a bit of punishment.
Currently, there are few players who have advanced to the High Tier, mostly high-quality players, so naturally, they wouldn't be inconsiderate, but later when High Tier players increase, it's hard to say.
In short, Fang Ka defines it as having a little usefulness.
Of course, if later such inconsiderate players do emerge, Fang Ka can simply lower their favorability to negative values to deter this from happening again.
Subsequently, the only function of this magic array is to allow the royal palace's gatekeeper to open the Wall of the Brahma Land for the incoming players in time.
...
After Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching and the others left the underground city, Hand Rubbing Diamonds eagerly flew a round in the air.
Although each level within the underground city has a pretty decent height, it always feels somewhat oppressive to fly inside, whereas being outside gives a sense of the joy of free flying.
After circling once, he pulled off the gourd from his waist and twirled it in his hand, smiling with satisfaction.
Everyone headed westwards, some swimming, some flying.
Upon seeing the area shrouded with black mist over the sea, they immediately knew that was their birthplace, Kain Island.
The players approached the south of the black mist and then dived underwater.
Soon, the group saw the turtle-shaped reef that Fang Ka had mentioned.
Going a little further north from the turtle-shaped reef, the pervasive black mist appeared.
This black mist not only enveloped the sea and sky but also the sea floor.
The key point was, the players remembered, back on Kain Island, they could see the sunrise and sunset normally every day.
When viewed from the island, the black mist simply spread over the surrounding sea area, but from outside, it surrounded the island 360 degrees with no blind spots, which to them, is utterly magical.
Mr. Zhou remarked: "Mage Fang Ka is far more unfathomable than we imagined, these magic means are just too astounding."
The other players nodded in agreement.
Quickly, a small aperture opened within the black mist ahead, and all the players swam towards it.
Swimming along the aperture, soon the black mist in front of them completely disappeared, and when they looked back, the mist behind them had returned to normal.
The players exchanged glances, then immediately swam towards the surface of the sea.
Upon surfacing, they looked around to find themselves once more surrounded by a sea area shrouded only by black mist, with nice sunshine, blue skies, and white clouds above, a breathtaking scene.
The magical means left the players awestruck: Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching mildly reflected: "I suddenly want to further immerse myself in studying the Magic Domain, to practice the Mage Class. These means, they're too enchanting."
Mr. Zhou nodded in agreement: "Indeed, becoming a Mage has prospects, it's classy. These powerful Mage means are simply astonishing."
The Iron Black Pot immediately patted the two on the shoulder: "Don't, you must seize this opportunity of the first round of exploration. If you don't gather some resources early on, how will you lead other players? How will you stay at the forefront?"
Mr. Zhou shrugged off the Iron Black Pot's hand from his shoulder, then swam towards the island: "I know you're worried about losing two combat forces, don't worry, I definitely won't give up on the early exploration progress."
Only then did the Iron Black Pot nod reassuringly.
The moment the players approached the coast, they attracted a lot of new players doing errands here.
"Wow, look, they can fly! What's that player's skin? So handsome!"
"That's nothing, the one with three pairs of wings is what's beautiful. Oh my gosh, they're stunning. I'm really smitten, honestly, I want to crown her my goddess."
"Oh, that blood-red demon is too cool! Look at that self-assured, imposing aura."
"Wow, I'd only heard bragging in the chat about how cool the skins of classes advanced to High Tier are, but seeing it in person is quite heart-stirring..."
"I can't, I need to work harder to earn more, I must strive to reach the underground city soon, I want to enhance my class to High Tier as early as possible, I want to reach the peak of my life!"
...
The arrival of the Iron Black Pot and his friends undoubtedly fueled the enthusiasm of the new players here, who were already full of motivation and now seemed to be on adrenaline.
This was precisely the effect Fang Ka desired.
Upon landing on the coast, a large number of players immediately surrounded them, inspecting the Iron Black Pot and his friends up close.
Iron Black Pot and the others' vanity was instantly greatly satisfied.
Still, an unchanged Mr. Zhou and Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching sobered up, immediately reminding the Iron Black Pot and his crew.
