Miracle City's deep role-playing offers a remarkable effect on accelerating Adventurer cultivation. Moonlight Shines on Snow's growth has advanced by leaps and bounds recently; her current Life Soul fusion degree has reached 95%! If she continues to challenge the story mode, she is expected to fully fuse as early as tomorrow, becoming Miracle City's first contracted Adventurer to break through to Tier 2!
Now she doesn't have to worry about Tier 2 Contract Spirit Souls either. The "Leech Queen Marcus" in her possession is the best of the best. Its value far exceeds that of ordinary Tier 2 Spirit Souls by a hundred times; it's a rare treasure that can't necessarily be bought even with ample wealth.
With the abilities of the Leech Queen, Moonlight Shines on Snow is sure to achieve great things in this world, executing significant special missions for the territory and demonstrating immense value. Boundless prospects await her!
This generated stronger desires and motivations among other Adventurers. If Moonlight Shines on Snow can obtain Named Souls, other Adventurers naturally have this opportunity as well. After all, there are many characters in Miracle City's story Secret Realm, and the Raging Tide story chapter will introduce new characters and new BOSSes.
As for the Realm of Shadows Secret Realm? It's estimated that more opportunities will arise! Just the Ashina Country chapter alone has formidable figures like "Ashina Isshin," "Ashina Genichiro," and "Tamura Yoshifumi." If they drop Named Souls, both their collection and practical values will be extremely high.
Of course, the drop rate for Named Souls is incredibly low; they are unique and only produced once, making them challenging to acquire. This rarity fuels Adventurers' eagerness and desperation to seize limited opportunities.
Thus, the first chapter of the Raging Tide story chapter officially came to a perfect end. Although Moonlight Shines on Snow has completed her initial playthrough, it doesn't rule out the possibility of opening second and third playthroughs for future revisits.
Furthermore, other Adventurers in Miracle City have not yet cleared it, and the story chapter must be advanced chapter by chapter. For a long time to come, the first chapter will remain popular in the Secret Realm Lobby.
As for the relevant plot and research, it will naturally become a topic of conversation among Adventurers. For example, at this moment, Adventurers are gathered together, enthusiastically discussing the information revealed in the first chapter and formulating plot theories.
Moonlight Shines on Snow said, "I feel that a lot of important character information appeared in the first chapter..."
"For example, the protagonist Rebecca that we play, and Marcus's two students, Wesker and William. I think it's very likely they will appear in the subsequent story and become important characters!"
Time Traveler also joined the discussion. "Although it's just the first chapter, it has revealed a vast amount of information to us, such as the Umbrella Corporation and others; there's so much worth researching."
He paused for a moment before adding, "Also, regarding Leech Queen Marcus, I have a personal theory. I think what we faced might not be the real Marcus."
Nanshan Guest asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Marcus died ten years ago. The Leech Queen spent ten years resurrecting him, but was the resurrected entity truly Marcus himself?"
Upon hearing this, the Adventurers fell into deep thought.
Time Traveler speculated, "I think it's very likely that the Leech Queen absorbed Marcus's memories and mistakenly believes she is Marcus, thus generating the idea of revenge."
"That's a truly interesting idea," praised White Crane Hermit. "Precisely because Marcus is no longer human, he became so extreme, even willing to destroy all humanity for revenge."
Three Bamboo nodded. "This line of thinking is compelling and explains many questions, such as why Marcus is clearly male yet is referred to as the Leech Queen."
Wind in Sleep added, "There's still much to explore in the Raging Tide world. But what's certain is that the vast majority of reasons for the outbreak of disaster are man-made."
White Crane Hermit sighed, "Humanity in this world was destroyed by the excessive pursuit of knowledge and longevity."
The plot content of the first chapter is rich, allowing Adventurers to gain new insights by reviewing and integrating their experiences. The world of Doomsday Raging Tide undoubtedly harbors many unknown secrets, which will motivate Adventurers to explore further.
Bihua didn't know much about the Doomsday Raging Tide world. However, upon hearing everyone's discussion, she found it intriguing. This Secret Realm story not only offers exhilarating combat and explosive scenes but also possesses considerable depth.
Although Bihua personally prefers the melee style of the Ten Kingdoms Chronicle Ashina Country, she developed a strong curiosity and desire to explore the Tidal Secret Realm in the future.
While Bihua was still engaged in the group's plot discussion, a high-ranking member of the Yellow Springs Mercenary Group, who had also entered Miracle City, rushed over.
"Leader, there's a situation with Wangchuan! They are fighting new-type Tracker Zombies in the second level of Raging Tide!"
"New-type Tracker?" Bihua knew that the Tidal Secret Realm had a story mode and that a competitive mode was likely to open soon. The potential and planning for this Secret Realm were completely on par with Ten Kingdoms Chronicle.
If we say that role-playing is equivalent to the story flow of traditional Secret Realms, the level mode is akin to the labyrinth flow of those same realms.
Forgotten River Wanderer was an avid enthusiast of the Tidal Secret Realm's level mode, while his interest in the Ten Kingdoms Chronicle Ashina Chapter was temporarily low. He preferred shooting over melee combat.
After Moonlight Shines on Snow cleared the first chapter of the story, Forgotten River Wanderer formed a team of three and began the challenge of the second level of the Tidal Secret Realm. The teammates he assembled were also remarkable: Nancilia, Boulder, and Iron Heart.
There's no need to explain Little Net Manager Nancilia. She stays in the hall all day observing and recording Adventurers. Therefore, she is very familiar with all Secret Realms—like a living map.
Also, because she had previously teamed up with Forgotten River Wanderer, they had a decent rapport, and with just 1 point of energy left, she was pulled into the team.
The other two were even more powerful! Boulder and Iron Heart were both Tier 3 Adventurers, the only other Tier 3 Adventurers besides Bihua and Three Bamboo currently!
Both were members of White Crane Hermit's old friends group. If either were placed in Black Stone Town, they could be considered master or grandmaster-level existences. Their skill level, while not quite matching White Crane Hermit, wouldn't be far off.
Both were like Three Bamboo; they didn't take Miracle City's Secret Realm seriously. They initially planned to handle a couple of runs and leave. However, after experiencing the charm of Miracle City's Secret Realm, the two old men were now deeply immersed and unable to extricate themselves.
Boulder had been consistently running the Tidal Secret Realm. This burly old man, with a lion-like face and a full white beard, was a heavy drinker. One of his main motivations for coming to Miracle City was hearing that he could obtain 'Maozi'—a rare fine brew in Black Stone Town.
Iron Heart, on the other hand, was an old man who looked somewhat dark and thin, with a simple appearance resembling that of a farmer. He had challenged both the Ten Kingdoms Chronicle and Raging Tide.
The four formed a team—a living map plus two heavyweights. Forgotten River Wanderer himself was not weak, being a Tier 2 Adventurer. How could they possibly lose in this situation? Although the second level was challenging, a fixed strategy had already formed. Any well-coordinated and skilled team had a chance to pass!
Let alone an Adventurer team with such a luxurious configuration?
Just when everyone thought victory was assured, an accident occurred! The final BOSS of the second level of the Tidal Secret Realm is a Tracker. However, the Adventurers challenging today discovered that the Tracker emerging from the armored vehicle had a small chance of mutating.
Although the Tracker itself didn't change, its weapon did. For example, there's a small chance the Flame Thrower might turn into a Rocket Launcher, or even a Gatling multi-barrel machine gun.
This greatly increased the BOSS's strength, creating a different kind of monster. Adventurers knew without guessing that Secret Realm monsters wouldn't change without reason—so the Lord definitely made modifications behind the scenes.
Everyone reacted to this not with anger, but with joy. The Lord still has a conscience! There were rarer, more valuable, and more powerful Tracker monsters. He didn't take them out and create separate levels to further trouble and harvest Adventurers. Instead, they appeared as Easter eggs in old levels that Adventurers were already familiar with.
This was not seen as ruining the experience. Instead, it made everyone more nervous and expectant each time the BOSS appeared. However, the BOSS mutation rate seemed low. The probability of a Rocket Launcher Tracker appearing was around 20%, while the chance of a Gatling Tracker appearing was less than 5%.
The Flame Thrower Tracker is Tier 2 Two-Star. The Rocket Launcher Tracker is Tier 2 Three-Star. As for the Gatling Tracker? It's a terrifying existence close to Tier 2 Five-Star!
Although hundreds of Adventurers wanted to obtain the Spirit Soul of the new type Tracker, there had been almost no successful cases so far. This was partly because the trigger rate was low and also due to the combat method completely changing.
Facing the Flame Thrower Tracker, Adventurers had a mature set of tactics and methods. As long as the team had enough synergy, there was a certain probability of winning.
The problem was, this set of tactics was for the Flame Thrower Tracker. If a Rocket Launcher Tracker appeared, they would be completely lost. After all, the Flame Thrower's range doesn't exceed 15 meters, while the Rocket Launcher can hit up to 500 meters away.
Can they be the same?
Just as the Flame Thrower Tracker possesses nearly infinite fuel, the Rocket Launcher Tracker's rockets can also be replenished, practically inexhaustible. Even if each launch has a cooldown of over ten seconds, the Tracker's powerful mobility and combat intelligence are enough to defeat the Adventurers.
Of course, the Adventurers' true nightmare was the Tracker wielding a Gatling. The Gatling can load nearly ten thousand rounds of ammunition, with a reload interval of five to ten minutes. Once it opens fire, it's like a storm of metal sweeping in, and Adventurers essentially have no power to resist.
Even getting close is difficult, let alone fighting!
Adventurers have not yet found a way to counter it. Fortunately, the chance of a Gatling Tracker appearing is very low. Only one appeared by the time the adventure time was about to end today.
When Bihua arrived at the Secret Realm crystal, Forgotten River Wanderer's team was already nearing the end of their battle. The rocket craters scattered across the square indicated both the BOSS form and the intensity of the fight.
After a bitter struggle, the four Adventurers finally took down the Rocket Launcher Tracker. The two seniors, Boulder and Iron Heart, perished together with the Tracker in the second phase of the battle.
Only Nancilia and Forgotten River Wanderer remained.
"Samantha, keep it up! You should be able to win this one!"
"The zombie horde is coming soon; get ready quickly!"
Cat Meow Meow, Moonlight Shines on Snow, Pear Blossom Rain Falling, and other companions cheered for Nancilia. At this moment, the final BOSS had been eliminated, and the large zombie tide Easter egg was about to be triggered.
This part requires two people to cooperate to pass. One person is responsible for operating the heavy machine gun to sweep the zombie horde while the other transports ammunition and attacks stragglers.
"Let me use the machine gun this time!" Forgotten River Wanderer eagerly took control of the heavy vehicle-mounted machine gun while Nancilia began transporting ammunition. A magnificent bloody feast began!
Bihua was stunned. It was the first time she had seen this Easter egg. Within the city built of reinforced concrete and filled with an exotic art style, tens of thousands of Zombies suddenly emerged, swarming towards the square from the opposite street.
At a glance, it looked like a raging tide. The sheer number made one's scalp tingle. Bihua finally understood why this Secret Realm was called Raging Tide.
Just as she was shocked that Miracle City's Secret Realm could create such an exaggerated grand scene, Forgotten River Wanderer had already started the heavy vehicle-mounted machine gun, sweeping with a speed of seven to eight thousand rounds per minute.
Almost in the blink of an eye, hundreds of Zombies were blown to bits. Bihua, Three Bamboo, and other newcomers were all in awe. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed that a Secret Realm would specifically set up so many monsters just for a grand scene. The main purpose of these monsters' existence was to let Adventurers have a blast.
But it must be said—it was indeed too exhilarating! Under Forgotten River Wanderer's furious sweeping, the streets quickly piled up with corpses like mountains and flowed with blood like rivers. Only after he had thoroughly satisfied his craving did he enter the opened safe door with Nancilia.
Both received clearance notifications.
Nancilia's notification message was: **[You have cleared the second level of the Tidal Secret Realm, 'Flame Thrower Tracker Spirit Soul' +1!]**
And Forgotten River Wanderer's notification message was: **[You have cleared the second level of the Tidal Secret Realm, 'KLX810 Off-road Motorcycle' +1!]**
