Regardless of the outside world's evaluation.
Seeing Red Queen appear before her, Li Ruoshu was startled but quickly regained her composure.
She walked directly to the area marked as the central control panel.
Red Queen tried to issue a warning, "If you shut me down, the zombie virus will flood the city, and then... you won't survive either."
Li Ruoshu tilted her head and smiled, "That's exactly the effect I want!"
Immediately, she severed the core.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
As the energy core was removed, the power to the entire Beehive Laboratory was cut off, and in an instant, everything plunged into utter darkness.
Congratulations on completing the side quest! Reward: Rare Tactical Backpack, filled with countless useful small items, perhaps even a flashlight for illumination.
Li Ruoshu heard the prompt.
She immediately opened the Tactical Backpack that appeared out of thin air in her hand and searched through it.
Sure enough, she pulled out a flashlight.
This Tactical Backpack appears at the start of every game. It not only contains various small items but can also store some things, acting as a backpack.
This was an Easter egg placed by Chen Yu. Any Adventurer who successfully shuts down Red Queen's power can obtain this equipment.
It helps with challenging high-difficulty levels later on.
Because of the existence of this equipment, even if Adventurers choose to complete the main quest directly, they will still choose to return to the novice mode to challenge it when facing other high-difficulty levels later.
This greatly increased the Adventurers' desire to challenge.
As expected.
After Li Ruoshu demonstrated the function of the Tactical Backpack, the Adventurers outside erupted.
"Truly a wicked Lord, to put such an important piece of equipment in such a difficult place."
"Challenging the laser channel, who can do that?"
"Luckily, we don't have to be like Li Ruoshu, passing through the laser channel under the siege of a dozen Lickers. If we just memorize it, it should be possible, right?"
"I think it's quite iffy. At least it'll take many more challenges."
"I've already saved that segment in the laser channel. I'll take it back and study it carefully."
"Study what... study the laser or study the legs?"
Some also joked.
But it must be said that Li Ruoshu's performance has become a masterpiece, an object of emulation for countless strategy group members.
It also became an insurmountable mountain.
Watching countless people in the chat channel praise and admire Li Ruoshu, Wu Chengxu's face was extremely grim.
As one of Tide Town's well-known strategy groups.
As an ace.
The gap was so huge!
After this battle, the Chang Xu Strategy Group would likely become a laughingstock.
If Li Ruoshu hadn't pulled off that peak performance, it would have been fine; failure would just be failure.
But now...
When Li Ruoshu performed that move, Wu Chengxu paled in comparison.
The worst part was that the time difference between their challenges wasn't long.
This also meant that...
In the future, whenever someone mentioned this masterpiece, he would be brought up as a background, used to highlight how incredible Li Ruoshu was.
Thinking of this.
Wu Chengxu's face was incredibly gloomy.
Then, thinking of Wu Yong inviting him, saying how simple this Dungeon was and that he could use the live broadcast to boost the Chang Xu Strategy Group's reputation, Wu Chengxu felt a surge of anger.
Simple?
Whether it was simple or not, Wu Chengxu didn't know.
He only knew.
He probably wouldn't have the face to go back and confront his elder brother.
Damn it, I've completely shamed myself.
Wu Yong kept sending him private messages, which angered Wu Chengxu so much that he blocked him, planning to have a physical fight offline sometime.
On Li Ruoshu's side.
Red Queen's power being cut off plunged the entire underground Beehive into darkness, but with the Tactical Flashlight as a light source, illumination wasn't a major problem.
Although this would make facing zombies more difficult, Li Ruoshu was no ordinary Adventurer; this small difficulty was not worth mentioning to her.
Without those Lickers.
No one in this underground Beehive Laboratory could stop her.
Not long after.
Li Ruoshu boarded the train, heading to the outside world, completing the entire novice quest.
Calculating.
You have perfectly cleared Novice Mode. The Honor Roll has been updated, and you are currently ranked first on the Honor Roll.
The first place on the Honor Roll will receive the limited-time Crimson King skin, 1000 happy coins weekly, a server-wide notification upon entering the Biochemical Crisis Dungeon, and the title of Crimson King...
Calculation complete. In this Dungeon, you have obtained: a barbecue set, a grilled meat set, seven cream puffs, one hamburger...
Li Ruoshu's consciousness returned to reality.
Looking at the dazzling array of delicacies on the table, she couldn't help but gape.
"How can there be so much?"
"This one challenge yielded about the same as my usual twenty or thirty attempts combined."
"Biochemical Crisis... what an interesting Dungeon."
Li Ruoshu's gaze was still captivated, showing that this time, she had almost been completely won over by the combat-oriented Dungeon created by Chen Yu.
To receive so much food at once was enough to prove how much joy she felt during this period.
Especially when she was in the laser channel, her adrenaline surged incredibly high.
Stimulating.
It was truly too stimulating.
Li Ruoshu hadn't experienced such a thrilling feeling in a long time, making her incredibly excited and unable to calm down even now.
"Did it take half an hour?"
Li Ruoshu looked at her name on the Honor Roll and the time next to it, falling into thought.
Currently, she was the only one on the list.
Because, so far, Li Ruoshu was the only one who had cleared Novice Mode.
Just Novice Mode alone had stumped most Adventurers, let alone perfectly clearing it.
However, she was still not satisfied with this number.
"I can be faster."
"I've memorized the laser blueprint. The only problem is how to make the Lickers unfreeze faster? I need them to come out earlier so I can achieve a higher score."
After clearing the Dungeon.
Surpassing their previous records became the only joy for top players.
To achieve perfection.
This was the mindset of all top strategists.
Li Ruoshu chose to queue again.
Seeing the Honor Roll appear, all Adventurers following the Resident Evil Dungeon were invigorated.
Li Ruoshu's clear.
Undoubtedly pushed the popularity of the Resident Evil Dungeon to a certain level again.
As time went on.
Basically, strategies for dealing with all monsters had already appeared.
Even if ordinary Adventurers couldn't perform high-level maneuvers like Li Ruoshu, there was still a chance to clear it.
Once they got used to the Dungeon's combat style, people began to clear it one after another.
The second person to clear it was a member of the earliest strategy group.
However, even he didn't perfectly clear it; he merely finished Novice Mode according to the normal process.
He didn't attempt the side quest.
After all, he also knew that simultaneously shutting down Red Queen's power while avoiding being killed by a dozen Lickers and clearing the game under such extreme conditions.
It was truly too difficult.
