Chapter 762: Chapter 480: Lending a Hand, Entering the Instance

After making progress in the Purgatory World’s Great Rift cultivation, Wang Zhifan quickly returned to the Earth Star World.

The reason was that a new day had arrived on Earth Star, refreshing the daily entry count for the dungeons.

At this moment, it was already morning in Earth Star Xia Country, and Wang Zhifan appeared at the East City Villa, Dongjiang City.

He was just about to enter a dungeon when he noticed his phone was receiving a call from Mr. Li of the Dongjiang Second Bureau.

"Mr. Wang! It’s Li Zhen Country. Are you busy right now?"

Upon answering the call, Wang Zhifan heard Mr. Li’s loud yet slightly fatigued voice, suggesting that this model worker from the management bureau was working overtime again.

"Mr. Li, I’m not too busy at the moment. Is there something you need help with?"

Wang Zhifan replied promptly and without hesitation.

Although he wasn’t deeply acquainted with this Mr. Li, the other party had visited him personally and established an agreement for assistance when necessary, which Wang Zhifan hadn’t forgotten.

"Yes! Mr. Wang! I’ll be brief. Recently, a group of foreign illicit players are suspected to have roamed near Dongjiang City. The management bureau plans to eliminate them, but there’s an issue with two individuals whose strength is daunting, and the bureau isn’t fully confident in taking them down. As I’m currently on a business trip abroad and can’t come back immediately, I’d like to ask for your help."

Mr. Li explained over the phone.

"Okay, where are those people now?"

Since it was related to combat, Wang Zhifan agreed without hesitation.

He felt that with his current conditions, he could afford to be a bit indulgent. No need to be overly cautious; others should be the ones worried.

"Still searching throughout the city; it’ll take at most two to three hours for results."

Upon hearing Wang Zhifan’s immediate agreement, Mr. Li’s tired voice on the phone seemed to let out a slight sigh of relief.

"Two or three hours? Then Mr. Li, I’ll finish today’s dungeon runs first and head over later. Anyway, most dungeon times will be compressed into that range, so it definitely won’t delay supporting the bureau."

Realizing they hadn’t located the targets yet, Wang Zhifan responded as such.

After all, his willingness to cooperate with the bureau didn’t mean he’d delay his own tasks for them.

"No problem! But, how come you haven’t finished your dungeon runs yet? If it were earlier, I could have teamed up with you."

Mr. Li on the other end of the call didn’t object, but he did tease Wang Zhifan for not being proactive enough with his dungeon runs.

Because, as he knew, many elite players were full of eagerness and enthusiasm for dungeon runs, typically choosing to enter right after the counts reset at midnight rather than waiting until daytime.

"Alright then, I’ll hang up and contact you after finishing the dungeon."

After concluding his conversation with the other party, Wang Zhifan hung up the phone, ready to enter the dungeon.

"The Cyan Emperor Saber is ready; there’s nothing else to prepare... Let’s just get started!"

After a quick check of the preparations, he decisively chose to enter the dungeon with the Cyan Emperor Saber and embarked on a new journey.

[Dungeon Objective: Achieve the monthly performance target at the mining base of Kai Bo Interstellar Group located on K54 Prison Star.] 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

[Note: The punishment mechanism has been removed for this dungeon, allowing players to fight maliciously without entering punishment cells.]

[As an SVIP player, you can independently choose your initial role from the following options.]

[New Miner: You are new to the K54 Prison Star’s mining base. Kai Bo Interstellar Group is renowned across the universe for humane management, thus this month you only need to mine one million tons of minerals to meet the performance target. However, you lose access to advanced mining mechas and can only use standard mining mechas.]

[Veteran Miner: The mining base on K54 Prison Star feels all too familiar to you; even the chilling rumors of alien creatures are no exception. You have access to advanced mining mechas, with a monthly mining requirement of two hundred fifty thousand tons.]

[Elite Miner: As a seasoned kingpin at the K54 Prison Star mining base, operating advanced mining mechas in mine shafts is practically instinctive for you.

Among the few hopefuls to achieve monthly performance, the guard captain pays extra attention to you to ensure you avoid fatalities from accidents. Your monthly mining requirement is three million tons.]

[Ordinary Guard Team Member: The K54 Prison Star is an atrocious place. You are dispatched by the headquarters of Kai Bo Interstellar Group to this mining base, responsible for overseeing and protecting those damned criminal miners.

But you know that some lurking dangers often leave you sleepless and anxious, and despite piloting an armed mecha, you still feel insecure.

Your monthly target is to supervise the miners managed by your team to work diligently, completing at least 80% of the total mining target.]

[Guard Team Captain: You are one of sixteen guard team captains at the mining base of Kai Bo Interstellar Group, K54 Prison Star. Under your command are twenty fully armed guard team members. You personally have a military-grade combat mecha, responsible for overseeing and managing the one hundred miners assigned to your squad.

Your monthly target is to ensure the miners under your jurisdiction complete at least 80% of the total target, with at least three but no more than twelve miner fatalities per month, and a maximum of two fatalities among team members each month.]

[Base Merchant: At the K54 Prison Star mining base, you hold a unique position. Kai Bo Interstellar Group has arranged for you to operate a small shop here, providing solace and comfort items for prisoner miners and others after toil and terror, ensuring that their meager salaries are all recouped by the company.
