Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons-Chapter 701 - 620: Heading to the Wall of Mist
Time never stops, eternally rushing forward.
There is still a month and a half until the World Ring opens.
Kane sat by the bar in the Guild Hall, holding the latest issue of the World Ring magazine.
It is said that this is the last issue before the World Ring opens, after which the magazine will introduce the situations inside the World Ring.
It introduces 25 regions, each region's entry point, and the nearest major city and supply station.
The first page he opened was the region where Kane and his group were currently located.
No wonder, after all, this is the opening location, the first entry point.
The nearest major city is, naturally, Lion City, where they are now located.
The nearest supply station turned out to be Kane's hometown, which previously was Kara Town.
No, it can't be called Kara Town anymore, as it has already turned into Kara City.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kara Town also rose rapidly.
Especially Kara Town, which started being reconstructed by the Mist Council years ago.
Many top forces had already established gathering points there, bought some land, and even built private teleportation stations.
Thinking about it, Kane couldn't help but remember Uncle Ge Mu's family.
He frequently corresponded with them, hearing about the tremendous changes in his hometown.
It was indeed time to visit, but not now since they would be gathering in half a month for the final preparations.
At this time, Adoma walked over and handed an envelope to Kane.
"A letter from President Gordon at the base, for you."
Kane took it, carefully opened it, and read it.
After reading, he repacked the envelope and tossed it into his space equipment.
"What's up, anything important?"
Sitting opposite Kane, Burton, inside the bar, asked leisurely with a pipe in his mouth.
"Nothing much, just that as an initiator, I've been notified that I can head to the opening location now to start preparing."
"Oh! So, we need to set off?" Burton suddenly became interested and asked.
Kane nodded, "Get ready, we set off tomorrow."
Having said that, Kane got up and walked to the front desk.
At the front desk, Kane said to Adoma, "Notify the guild's Explorer members to gather at the guild base at 10 a.m. tomorrow, ready to head to the Wall of Mist."
"We're setting off!?" Adoma asked somewhat excitedly.
Kane's words obviously indicated this.
Almost everyone is highly anticipating the World Ring, and being born in this era is their fortune.
"Yes." Kane nodded.
"No problem, I'll handle it now," Adoma replied enthusiastically, then began writing new information to post on the bulletin board.
Kane needed to notify Longbei and the others in the Platinum Country.
After all, Longbei and the other members should be in the Platinum Country comprehending the rules.
They were comprehending higher-level rules now, tirelessly, even twenty days might not yield success.
The more advanced rules became increasingly complex, and the time spent began multiplying.
No wonder Explorers lingered at the golden phase for decades, even hundreds of years.
This truly is a phase that can only be ground down by time, and Kane's situation was relatively favorable.
They would at least be faster than ordinary Explorers by half the time.
However, Kreya wasn't here at the moment as she had returned home. Kreya was also a princess of a country.
Moreover, her country was also considered a powerful force, intending to enter the World Ring.
It would be strange for any force not to enter the World Ring in the current situation; it would be just foolish.
Even a city like Lion City had a team preparing to enter the World Ring.
Although it was said that the leading force from the semi-royal kingdom wasn't Kreya's family line; her parents mainly handled logistics and troop management.
No matter, the World Ring is so vast; the chances of them clashing are slim, even if they are in the same region.
Moreover, Kane and the others would directly head to the very edge of the World Ring, pushing inward, and initially, they wouldn't conflict with any Explorer forces.
With this in mind, Kane exited the Guild Hall and returned to his room at the base.
Using the Ruby Lapel Pin on his collar, he contacted Kreya.
Kreya had finished her matters and would return to the guild tonight, not missing tomorrow's gathering.
Hearing this, Kane nodded in relief.
......
The next morning.
Kane arrived early at the guild base hall, with Kreya and others alongside him.
But there were still nearly two hours until the gathering time at 10:00, so Kane and his group sat on the chairs nearby waiting.
As time progressed, Explorer members gradually emerged from the houses around the Lantern Guild building, gathering in the hall.
Seeing everyone assembled, Kane checked the time, which was still before 10:00.
Kane stood at the front, Kreya and others stood behind him, while the remaining Explorer members in the guild gathered in teams facing him.
Burton and Adoma stood waiting nearby, as guild members, they naturally moved with the guild.
The guild's Explorer squads.
Including the gold-level Kane Squad, Raphael Squad, and Burton.
A total of 11 people.
Just with the number of gold-level members alone, in this grade of battle group strength, it should have some notoriety.
Then there are the Amis Squad and the Funa Squad. These two squads belong to the group with relatively high talent, being the earliest explorer squads to join the guild.
And the newly joined Gnate Squad, along with the similarly recruited Silver Peak Squad and Walt Squad.
The Walt Squad is a squad composed entirely of half-beastmen, and the captain is a tall and slim male half-werewolf with wolf ears and a wolf tail.
The squad recommended by Amis, the Tistek Squad.
This squad doesn't have much distinctive features; the captain, Tistek, is focused on healing as a support profession and acts as a healing instructor within the guild.
The squad recommended by Raphael, the Holholis Squad.
Holholis himself is a dragon-man, and his individual strength should be the strongest among the entire Silver Team. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
If not for the lack of time, their squad should have become gold-ranked explorers.
Except for the Gnate Squad, these teams are all Silver Peak and at a bottleneck.
A total of 29 people, because the Funa Squad still hasn't found their final member.
And one final bronze-level player, Adoma.
A total of 41 people is the personnel Kane and their Lantern Guild are taking to the World Ring.
Kane looked at these people in front of him and spoke.
"You also know that I will be the primary opener of the World Ring. In other words, you will be among the first batch of people to enter the World Ring with me."
"Due to this particularity, we need to go in advance to the opening location to prepare and stay there until the World Ring opens.
We hope that in the coming time, we can cooperate sincerely, help each other, and achieve something that will shake the world in the World Ring."
After Kane finished speaking, everyone clapped their hands.
When the applause subsided, Kane nodded: "Without further ado, let's set off."
Saying so, he turned around and led the crowd towards the teleportation station of Lion City.
Along the way, they did not attract too much attention.
Because now Lion City is full of people from various races, any race that exists in the Mist World can be found here.
Gold-ranked explorers are truly everywhere. Standing at a high place and urinating down would surely hit a gold-ranked explorer.
It's not that gold rank is so common, it's because the Mist World is just too large.
The vast area brings an exaggerated population base, and the gold-ranked strong are now gathered in the 25 regions on the world border.
Forget about gold, if your perception is keen, you can even meet one or two color-ranked big shots just walking down the street.
They are not here to participate in the World Ring; they are probably here to supervise or lead their respective forces.
It can't be helped, this is a once-in-a-thousand-year major world event, the whole world will operate around this matter for countless years in the future.
When Kane and the others arrived at the teleportation station again, the scenery here was completely different from before.
The once nearby Explorer's House has now been expanded by about 10 times, and all the surrounding buildings have become part of the Explorer's House. It's now a 5-story building.
Compared to before, it is very magnificent.
This has probably become one of the largest Explorers' Houses in the western region.
Inside, you could see a wide hall, with various explorers coming and going, even the staff are busy without stopping.
And the adjacent teleportation station has been expanded to be similar to the teleportation hub Kane and the others had seen in the past.
The area of the entire teleportation array is very broad, expanded more than 10 times, with many surrounding houses demolished.
Even expanded so much, you can still feel the pressure on teleportation efficiency.
The most iconic thing is the huge teleportation crystal in the sky.
And the massive teleportation gates opened around the teleportation crystal, with various large and small airships coming and going in the sky.
Causing people below to occasionally feel like they are under the shadow of something.
However, after several months, they've almost gotten used to it.
Now, Lion City is almost different every day.
Kane and the others walked toward the teleportation station, and at this moment the staff and guards had already become people from the Mist Council.
Their attitude is much better than those previous guards.
After all, you don't know what kind of existence you are facing.
The person you disdain might turn out to be a tricolor-ranked big shot.
Facing the approaching staff member, Kane directly handed over a white card attached in President Gordon's letter.
The staff took it, nodded, and immediately respectfully led Kane and the others to a dedicated teleportation station nearby.
This teleportation station is very spacious; even with everyone from Kane standing on it, it still seems roomy.
"Excuse me, are you ready?"
When they heard the operator's words, Kane nodded.
"Then get ready, 3, 2, 1."
As the final number fell, amidst a beam of light, Kane and their figures disappeared.
When Kane and the others opened their eyes again, they looked up and saw the distant mountains, where there was a sun-blocking white wall of mist.
Besides Kane and Burton, almost no one had been to this farthest border region.
Gazing at the sun-blocking white wall of mist, they couldn't help but stand still in the teleportation station.
"Hey, what are you doing standing up there? Come down, there are more people to be teleported over soon."
The staff at the teleportation station shouted loudly.
On hearing this, everyone came to their senses and quickly left the teleportation platform.
They had just left the platform when a burst of light flashed behind them.
A large group of explorers, estimated to be over 100, appeared on the teleportation platform.
This group of explorers' attire distinctly represented two forces.
But the two leading figures, Kane found them somewhat familiar.
"Kane?"
