"Kaka!"

The underground spider made an ear-piercing cry for help, then fell to the ground and stopped moving.

The beastman wearing black armor stood in front of the underground spider. Behind him were four other companions and a large group of goblins.

Each of them has a common feature on their head, which is a green character on their head.

The beastman who had just killed the underground spider with a knife had two words [Arthur] on his head.

After Arthur chopped down the underground spider, he turned to look at the excited novice players behind him and sighed.

The entire underground spider lair is crowded, and there is almost no place for players to set foot.

Because of the public beta, basically all online game players from the great Eastern countries have poured into the Dungeon game.

This number is tens of millions, because there are too many people. Many novice players cannot create their characters after entering the server. The reason is that the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon and Victoria Free City are not that big. Let them settle.

Many players are waiting on the character creation interface. All the daily tasks turned into digging dungeons and exploring the trees of Victoria Forest to expand new territories.

Whenever a new territory is expanded, the open space in front of the Lord's Hall will be cleared, and those players will be sent by Lord Sherlock and Queen Lilo, employees or themselves to clear out the players there.

To make room for players who are ready to come in, even so, the venues in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon and Victoria Free City are still very tight, and many players are unable to enter the game immediately.

However, this is not a big problem for veteran players who already have characters. As long as they can find a way to squeeze into the game, fortunately, the queue speed is also very fast.

The novice goblins behind Arthur are all players who have just joined the Blood Donor Alliance guild. After the new version was opened, the player base increased significantly, and the number of people in the guild will of course increase accordingly. There is now a maximum number of people in a guild. It will reach 5,000 people. This is not a problem at all for a very famous guild. For example, the Pioneer Alliance guild has almost opened the server. In less than two hours, the guild has already filled up the number of people. , and most of them came here for Arthur's name.

As for the guild's membership review being conducted by Umekawa Pants, Arthur didn't pay much attention to these matters.

"Brother Arthur is so awesome, he deserves to be the number one rich man!"

"Can I ask Arthur to be my teacher?"

"Don't think about it, you can't be Brother Arthur's apprentice just because you want to."

The novice players said this one after another, and the burning chest hair behind him crossed his arms and said to the novice players with a smile:

"Did you see it just now? This is how the underground spider fights. You attack the legs first. The underground spider's legs have the strongest attack power."

"Brother with chest hair, you saw it, but we didn't blame him for beating you..."

One player said this, as the player said, the entire Eternal Kingdom dungeon is already crowded. The Goblins who just joined, not to mention the spiders in the underground lair, even the Sighing Wilderness and Fools The swamps are full of newly entered Goblins. Even if these Goblins can only die in high-level maps such as Lamenting Wilds and Swamp of Fools, players are still trying their best to squeeze in with their heads sharpened.

Because there are so many people, if they don’t go, there will be no place for them to play games and entertain themselves.

You can't just stand in the main city and mine in a daze, right? Although most players know that daily tasks are very important, but they have just entered the game of dungeons, it is unrealistic to expect them to mine in the dungeons with peace of mind.

But in a few days, when they have no money, equipment, or friends, I believe they will go mining with peace of mind, because in this game, only mining is the most convenient way to improve their strength. , which is also the most profitable method for civilian players.

Do you just keep running around and being a scenery party

There are basically not many underground spiders around Arthur. Goblins can be seen everywhere, with green heads and bodies, and noisy voices. This is after adding a chat system. Players are so noisy even when they can have private chats in the system interface. If there is no newly added chat system, it is estimated that the voices of the players can lift the top of the cave of the underground spider lair.

"But how many novice players are there? There are too many people in the open beta. Can the server support it?"

Sylvanas looked at the figures everywhere and asked complainingly. In the past excellent online games, the problem that players suffered from was that there were too many people. Of course, Dungeon is also an excellent online game. This is true for players.

"I don't know either, but I heard on the forum that the game warehouse alone has sold tens of millions."

"Is a game with tens of millions bad? Oh my god, then there won't be tens of millions of players in this open beta, right?"

"Maybe there really is. I just saw the screenshots of the Victoria Forest on the forum. That forest is crowded with players. The maps in this game are all 1:1 in size. I think that The forest is no smaller than a big city, and it is crowded with people, the number of people is terrifying."

"We have a lot of people in the Eternal Kingdom. You see, we dug so many territories and spaces before, but now they are all inhumane. Moreover, many guilds have gone to the Swamp of Fools and the Wilderness of Sighs to establish territories. There are people there. It’s a collection of buildings connected together.”

In the guild channel of the Pioneer Alliance, players are chatting and discussing how many new players have entered the open beta.

Of course they were talking using the chat system that had just been updated, and they were talking in the guild channel.

Direct shouting is equivalent to the current channel, and between the number of people around and the chatting sound is really too loud, it is estimated that not many people can hear the direct shouting.

As for how many new players have participated in this open beta, no one has a definite number, but this is just chat content for players in their spare time. In fact, no players have a real sense of the actual number of people in the open beta. Interested.

Arthur looked at the chat in the guild channel, but suddenly heard a cry from the side and the phenomenon of his body being pierced.

The player who turned out to be a guild member was talking in the chat channel and did not pay attention to the newly spawned underground spiders beside him.

The claw of the underground spider penetrated his chest, and around him, a group of underground spiders came from nowhere, and someone shouted loudly:

"Finally the monsters are cleared! The monsters are finally cleared!"

"Damn it, don't grab it from me, that was the monster I saw first."

"Brothers, please let me go. I still have two underground spiders left to complete this task."

"Buy spider silk! Buy spider silk!"

All kinds of cries echoed in the underground spider's lair.

While the players were cleaning the underground spider lair, a skeleton lich was placing rows of spider queens deep in the underground lair into caves dug in advance.

Skeleton Lich does not have the same green characters on his head as the players, but like those players, he is an employee from the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon. His name is Xueba, and he is known as a once-in-a-millennium genius. Lich.

The Lich Academic Master is now performing the task given by Lord Sherlock to expand the Spider Queen in the underground spider lair.

Although Sherlock had already added a wave of Spider Queens to the Spider Lair in the first three days of the open beta, after the real open beta, the number of Spider Queens in the Spider Lair still could not keep up. Those newly produced underground spiders There are far fewer players coming to take risks, so much so that the entire spider lair has been occupied by players. If Sherlock hadn't blocked the Spider Queen's lair in advance, these players might have rushed into the lair to attack. Spider Queen, you know those queens were bought by Sherlock at a huge price.

There was no other way, so Sherlock could only urgently buy another batch of Spider Queens and ask the Lich Master to send them over. As for Sherlock himself, he went to expand the new underground spider nest.

Originally, the spider queen was a very territorial creature. In a nest, if it was big enough, there would be at most two or three spider queens. Normally, there would only be one spider queen in a nest, but now in this nest It is already crowded with spider queens, at least hundreds of them, stacked one on top of another. If it weren't for the threats outside, the spider queens in this nest would have killed each other long ago.

But now let alone killing each other, they are almost sitting together to sign a covenant.

Of course, Xueba has also done some research on these spider queens, but the research is not particularly in-depth. But looking at it now, I am afraid there is still a lot of room for research, especially when these spider queens gather together. Social behavior has never been discovered before.

Of course, this can only be researched after completing the work, but this does not prevent the top student from taking some notes in advance.

He quickly took out his notebook, and then started writing in the notebook. The notebook was already filled with various notes, many of which were about the underground city of the Eternal Kingdom. player, and Lord Sherlock's.

It can be seen that Xueba has been recording his life in the dungeon of the Eternal Kingdom.

If this notebook is released, Xueba believes it will cause an unimaginable sensation, because the content and knowledge he discovers will completely subvert the entire underground world.

But this is impossible, because before entering the eternal kingdom dungeon to work, the academic master has signed a confidentiality agreement with Sherlock. He will never publish these contents in this life, and he has not published them. plans for this information.

But thinking about the days when he first came to the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon, the academic master felt as if it happened yesterday. In the blink of an eye, almost a year had passed, and the contract between himself and Lord Sherlock was only It’s only a year’s time.

After a year, he was no longer bound by a contract to stay in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon, but could do what he wanted to do, such as study and digest the notes in his hand.

As for how to use players as subjects of experiments, this is not a big problem at all. When getting along with these players, Xueba has already discovered their characteristics. As long as they give them some benefits, let alone research, Even if it costs them their lives, it won't be a big problem.

In other words, the academic master has no reason to stay in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon. Before, it was still for research, but when the contract expires, what reason does he have to stay here

He works 24 hours a day without any holidays or wages, and occasionally he even has to pay for the things he needs in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon.

He was harassed by these chattering players every day. Although the top student looked expressionless every day, it did not mean that he could ignore the harassment of these players.

With such treatment, ordinary people would probably leave, right

Especially the top student recently received a letter from his teacher.

Professor Bacon has now become the principal of the College of the Dead, and Professor Bacon, who has just taken office as the principal, has many things to deal with. He obviously needs a capable assistant by his side, and Xueba is an excellent choice.

Should I agree to the teacher's request and go to the academy? It seems that I had planned this way a year ago. After all, only in the academy can I do research with peace of mind.

But I always feel empty inside when I think of leaving the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon.

The top student shook his head, threw these random thoughts out of his skull, and continued his work, throwing the unconscious spider queens into the spider lair one by one.

There is also the next underground spider's nest that he needs to build.

————————

Patrick has been very busy recently. He spends a lot of time every day in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon for interviews. Because of establishing a friendly relationship with Lord Sherlock, he has recently become impoverished, but this does not prevent him from having An excited and extremely happy mood, because there is never a shortage of breaking news in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon.

[Why are the beastmen still laughing after their hands and feet are separated? Is it the awakening of animal nature or the collapse of humanistic society?]

[Certain Death Central Hospital stated that it was unable to cure the madness of the residents of the underground city of the Eternal Kingdom. The attending doctor said: "This is no longer a medical issue. We removed their problematic brains, but they were still alive and kicking and came to ask for help the next day. Treatment... Wait, let me go! I'm not crazy! Don't take out my brain!" (Someone come and hold him down! The attending doctor is crazy! Perform brain removal surgery immediately to save his life)]

Wait, these very high-quality news are all written by Patrick after his investigation in the underground city of Eternal Kingdom. They are extremely concerned by the residents of the underground world, and Patrick has also vaguely become The most famous and powerful journalist in the entire northern underworld.

But this is nothing. Regarding people's livelihood and interests, Patrick doesn't care much. Ever since he awakened his true soul, reporting meaningful news has been his life goal.

Recently, new news has appeared in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon. Countless goblins poured in overnight. No one knows where Lord Sherlock found them. So many goblins are simply overwhelming. It seems that all the Goblins in the northern world have been hired into his dungeon, but Patrick has gone to the Goblin Labor Office to investigate, and there are no registered Goblins hired by Charlotte and the adults. Walk.

Regarding this issue, Pai Daxing had already gone to find Lord Sherlock as soon as possible, and gave him the royalties he had just received, and made detailed inquiries. Lord Sherlock's answer was:

"The question you asked is very important and high-level. I can tell you responsibly that my goblins are not hired from the northern underground world, and of course they are not forced to work by any illegal means. , you can just ask any goblin if they feel happy and happy. My dungeon management is completely legal and compliant, and in line with social ethics. Although I am a high-level demon, please don’t always hate high-level demons. Treat me with a certain mentality, and we are also very disciplined."

As Lord Sherlock said,

Pai Daxing also went to find the goblins involved and conducted interviews. The goblins accepted Pai Daxing's interview very happily:

"Why are you asking us if we are illegal workers? Of course we are illegal..."

Before the goblin finished speaking, he fell straight to the ground and breathed evenly.

The other goblins on the side saw the situation in front of them, then raised their heads and said to Patrick seriously:

"Illegal workers, are you kidding me? How could we be illegal workers? Not only are we not illegal workers, but I can tell you responsibly that we come to work in the underground city of Eternal Kingdom in full compliance with laws and regulations. Don't listen. The wind is like the rain. I just want to make some big news. I, Gill, will win. Even if I die, I will die in my beloved eternal kingdom, the underground city!"

After hearing such an answer, it must be reported truthfully. After returning home, Patrick planned to write such a title.

[Dozens of millions of goblin laborers, all with playful smiles and working happily. What kind of high benefits and high treatment can they have such enthusiasm for work? Let’s walk into the incredible dungeon of the eternal kingdom]

Patrick believes that such a title will definitely make those readers curious. After all, it is hard to find a job these days, especially a job with high benefits and high salary. If the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon is really like this If the treatment is good, I believe those readers will be very curious about how to join the Eternal Kingdom dungeon, right

Just when Patrick was about to go back to write a press release, a beastman in the crowded crowd came over and shouted to Patrick:

"Who is that! Can you come over here? Our boss has something to ask you!"
