Xia Lin swam some distance towards Fang Ka and then spoke, "It's been confirmed, there really are only three mages inside this Gana."
"The two low-tier mages have already kicked the bucket. As for the middle-tier mage, although not dead, he should also be severely injured."
"Lord Fang Ka, what do you plan to do?"
Upon hearing Xia Lin's question, Fang Ka lowered his head and pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "Xia Lin, thank you for your help. I'll handle the rest, no need to trouble yourselves."
Noel, beside Xia Lin, blinked softly and then asked Fang Ka, "Lord Fang Ka, are you sure you don't need my help?"
Noel waved her little fist, making a cute yet fierce expression, "I can rush in and take them all down directly!"
Fang Ka smiled lightly at Noel and shook his head, "Noel, thank you for your good intentions, I appreciate it."
"However, I can take care of things here."
Hearing Fang Ka's words, the two women did not insist and after chatting with Fang Ka for a few more moments, they swam towards the beach beside the ancient castle.
Fang Ka stood where he was, looking at this confined area.
Inside, the Gana had already started to stir, and many shadows could be seen moving around.
After watching for a while, Fang Ka sat down on a nearby rock.
He planned to release an update, designating these Gana as a special dungeon for players to handle.
After pondering a bit, Fang Ka sent out the announcement.
"Non-stop Major Update: Level 2 special dungeon (Gana Forbidden Domain) is open for access, players reaching level 2 can find Mage Fang Ka on the northern island to take the quest. (Time limit for taking the quest is within 12 hours after the update)"
"This dungeon follows a corpse settlement system, each ordinary Gana corpse is worth 10 Copper Coins, low-tier knight or mage corpse 1 Silver Coin, middle-tier mage or knight corpse 10 Silver Coins. (Corpses must remain intact, no missing limbs)"
"This special dungeon may close depending on circumstances."
"The entrance to this special dungeon is unidirectional and turns bidirectional promptly at noon and midnight each day for one hour; at other times, players cannot leave the dungeon, so plan accordingly."
"This dungeon holds certain dangers, players are advised to protect their skulls. If the skull remains intact and brought to Mage Fang Ka, revival is possible by consuming some points based on player level, with no losses."
"If the skull sustains destructive damage, revival will entail a significant deduction of points and currency based on player level, and profession will reset to initial state post-revival."
After sending the update announcement, Fang Ka's gaze returned to the players in the area inhabited by the Gana race.
In the underground library, there's a magic array specifically used by Kain to heal his necromancy summons, which players, as undead skeletons, can naturally use too.
However, everything else aside, if the head is destroyed, it's true death, and the soul contract will be forcefully terminated.
At that point, if one desires revival, Fang Ka would have to create a new undead skeleton and integrate the player into it.
The consequence, however, is that the power level naturally begins anew, equating to a 'profession reset' for the player.
In summary, this place isn't welcoming to lone wolf players; cooperation and mutual help among players are needed, as long as teammates are strong enough, it's hard to die completely.
After all, the skull is the undead skeleton's strongest point of defense.
Once there's a demon cave, birthing death energy, you can focus the death energy on protecting the skull, making it even harder to destroy.
By then, as long as the head is brought back to Fang Ka, he can still restore it by expending some magic power.
The reason for imposing restrictions on taking this quest is mainly that Fang Ka originally targeted the first batch of veteran players.
Now, each of the veteran players are roughly at the low-tier knight level, and with the previously acquired enchanted armor, their combat strength is considerable.
For these Naga, it's just right for practice, with a certain level of risk, but as long as they don't overextend, it's generally stable.
As for the new players... many haven't even undergone a single blood pool enhancement, nor do they possess armor or weapons, let alone enchantments.
At this time, entering the Naga's Forbidden Domain would be sheer recklessness, a pointless death, completely unnecessary.
The progress level of players varies, cannot generalize; measures must be devised according to the situation.
Meanwhile, players who had seen the update announcement were already worked into a frenzy.
Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching came to Mr. Zhou's two-story house, knocking on his door.
Soon, Mr. Zhou came out from inside.
Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching immediately spoke, "Xiao Zhou, have you seen that update announcement?"
Mr. Zhou nodded immediately, "Yes, I've seen it. Is Mr. Qian here to form a team with me?"
Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching nodded right away, "That's right, let's go find Scapegoat and the others, and form a combat team."
"This update announcement, no matter how I look at it, it screams 'cooperation'."
Mr. Zhou nodded gently, "Yes, I see it the same way. I bet Scapegoat and them think so too. We don't need to find them; we can just wait here."
"After all, this place is easy to find, I bet they'll come over soon."
"If we go to find them now, we might miss them, wasting a lot of time."
Hearing Mr. Zhou's words, Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching nodded lightly in agreement.
Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching approached Mr. Zhou and glanced him over.
Then he asked somewhat confusedly, "I don't seem to have seen you around these days? Have you been staying in this house?"
Mr. Zhou nodded lightly, "Yes, that's right, I've been staying in this small building."
Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching gave a small glance at the building, "Having your own property is indeed exciting, but you shouldn't just stay inside doing nothing, right?"
Facing Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching's inquiry, Mr. Zhou grinned slightly, "Mr. Qian, you're misunderstanding me. Though I've been inside, I haven't been idle."
"I've been studying magic patterns and already have some leads."
Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching was taken aback, as any mage would know, magic patterns are the essential building blocks of magic, a mysterious and complex existence.
"Really?" Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching looked at Mr. Zhou in surprise, finding it hard to believe.
