Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

A head of red hair and a beautiful face peeked in from the doorway.

"Are you done? Surprising that you're not lost in your own world."

Kane looked at Kreya at the door with some surprise.

"When did you come back?"

"I returned at noon, just saw you deep in your world, so I didn't disturb you."

Kane smiled and said, "I can't help it, these things are just too interesting."

The two of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at the dining table.

Looking at the table filled with delicious food, Kane's stomach couldn't help but growl.

Having been obsessed with mechanical structures these past two days, he hadn't kept regular meals, barely eating at all.

He sat at the table and started eating right away.

Looking at Meizike, Kane asked while eating, "We're crossing the Mist Gate tomorrow, are you nervous?"

Hearing Kane's words, Meizike nodded without hiding anything.

Sitting next to him, Longbei directly patted his shoulder, knocking the utensils from his hand.

"Don't be nervous, crossing the Mist Gate is just like crossing the Fog Gate when entering a dungeon."

Everyone chatted and laughed at the dining table like this.

...

...

The next morning

Kane and the others had finished their morning routine and were dressed, waiting in the living room.

Today was the day for Meizike to pass through the Mist Gate.

Everyone was somewhat nervous, so they woke up early.

At this time, Kreya was quite leisurely, putting a bow on Cotton Candy's head.

Seeing Meizike finally coming downstairs and ready, everyone followed him out of the villa.

As for Cotton Candy, he was left at home by Kane, as his adorable appearance was too overwhelmingly appealing to children.

After that morning, Kane dared not take him out randomly anymore.

When they arrived at the Explorer's House, the whole hall was filled with numerous explorers.

These were all new explorers, waiting for today's opening of the Mist Gate.

"Why are there so many new explorers today?"

Kane was puzzled because there didn't seem to be this many people when he passed through the Mist Gate.

Moreover, the newbie dungeon nearby had already been cleared by him, so logically there should be fewer new explorers.

Upon hearing Kane's question, Kreya knew the reason and answered, "I heard from my parents on my way home, they said that two new dungeons appeared in the last week back-to-back."

Hearing Kreya's answer, Kane was somewhat surprised.

The sudden appearance of two new dungeons would mean an obvious increase in the number of new explorers over the next few years.

The number of new explorers is usually determined by how many new dungeons exist at the time.

Otherwise, they'd have to tackle the more difficult regular dungeons, or spend a considerable amount to find a team to carry them through.

Or just rely on their outstanding skills to clear the dungeons.

Meizike queued up, ready to receive his number in the front.

At this time, Adoma spotted Kane's team and emerged from the crowd.

"Good morning, Sister Kreya."

She didn't greet the one she was most familiar with, Kane, but went directly to Kreya's side.

"Good morning to you too."

Hearing Kreya's response, Adoma blushed slightly, then took out a number card from behind her.

She handed it to Kreya and said, "Isn't there a member in your team who needs to pass through the Mist Gate? This is the number card I just got."

"I have something to do, so I'll leave first," Adoma said, waving her hand to bid farewell after seeing Kreya accept the card.

Before leaving, she winked playfully at Kane, looking provocative.

Tsk

A futile attempt really

Longbei directly dragged Meizike out of the queue.

Kreya then gave the number card to Meizike, which was number 36.

At this moment, a broadcast announcement was heard.

"The Mist Gate will open in 5 minutes. Since there are many explorers needing to pass through today, please maintain order and proceed in an orderly manner."

Hearing the announcement, everyone accompanied Meizike to the location of the Mist Gate in the basement of the Explorer's House.

When they went down, quite a few explorers were already waiting in the waiting area.

It wasn't long before a broadcast announcement was heard in the waiting area.

"The Mist Gate has opened. Please enter in the order broadcasted."

Meizike's face was expressionless, but from the way he tightly held the number card, it was evident he was very nervous.

"Number 36"

Hearing his number called, Meizike quickly stood up and then entered the room.

Watching Meizike's back as he entered, everyone couldn't help feeling a bit nervous.

I wasn't even this nervous when I crossed the Mist Gate myself, Kane thought, a bit at a loss for words.

It didn't take long before Meizike came out from the other side of the room.

As soon as Meizike came over, everyone immediately moved to greet him.

Longbei couldn't help but ask first, "How was it? Everything alright?"

Even though they all knew that passing through the Mist Gate ensured obtaining skills, though the quality may vary.

Seeing Meizike nodding, everyone inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

Then they quickly left the Explorer's House.

Despite their strong curiosity now, they wouldn't make Meizike demonstrate on the spot, especially with so many explorers around.

Being cautious is never wrong for explorers.

Everyone briskly walked along the street, swiftly heading towards the villa.

Once in the living room, Longbei couldn't hold back any longer.

"Quick, quick, show us what skill you acquired, I'm dying of curiosity here. It's not some skill completely unfitting for you, right? But don't be discouraged, your potion-making skills are strong enough already, so it doesn't matter if the skill is strong or not."

Meizike looked at Longbei's ramblings, a bit speechless, then stretched out his four hands.

Seeing him extend four hands, Kane and the others watched intently, afraid of missing any details.

Suddenly, one of his hands made a slapping motion.

A crisp sound appeared at the back of Longbei's head, Longbei rubbed his head, quickly looking back, but saw nothing there.

Longbei hadn't seen what hit him, but Kane and Kreya clearly saw it.

A blue hand had suddenly appeared near the back of Longbei's head, mimicking Meizike's motion and slapped his head.

Meizike laughed looking at the confused Longbei.

Then all four hands began to move.

Instantly, four blue hands appeared in front of him, mimicking the motions of Meizike's hands.
