01. Equivalent exchange: you spoilers, I will make you unhappy
"Is it because of me?" In the hut, Kallen had bright eyes.
"It's...it's not because of you." Mu Su pretended to be coy and shy.
"Do you want me to avoid it?" Transparent Qiao, who felt slightly uncomfortable, said expressionlessly.
It is approaching evening outside the window. Soon thick fog will cover this place.
Transparent Bridge and Mu Su agreed to go online at noon the day after tomorrow, and something would be announced at that time, and then they went offline, taking away Kallen who was reluctant to leave.
She didn't dare think about what would happen if Kallen was left here.
Mu Su, who had nothing to do, queued up a dungeon again, cheated his teammates, and looked at the official website with nothing to do.
A piece of news came into view.
【Death Tournament】Registration is open.
Two months after the release of After Sleeping, online competition was launched for the first time.
The details are written in mysterious and mysterious terms, such as the group falling into a dream and the gaze of the ruler. Some players have translated the full text and interpreted it in terms that normal people can understand.
After players sign up for the Death Tournament and enter the dream, a new option will appear, allowing them to choose to enter the Death Tournament dreamland.
Dreamland is divided into three dungeons. Players can choose to complete a certain dungeon at will. There is no penalty for failure and no reward for clearing the level. In the end, the system will provide unified ranking rewards based on the number of completed dungeons.
In terms of rewards, the game has always adhered to the principle of being stingy. The top 100% to 50% of players will randomly receive a common-level item. 49% to 11% of players will randomly receive an uncommon-level item. The top 10% of players will receive a rare-level item.
Props. At the same time, the top 10% of players will be added to the reserve. No one understands what this reserve means yet. It may be related to the subsequent main world plot or online events.
At the end of the news, part of the content of the next update was revealed. A new building called the Black Hole.
*Newly added dark cave entrance: will be placed on Wanghai Cliff. You can throw any acquired resources into the cave and randomly obtain props.
Tip 1: Appropriate allocation of the quantity and type of investment will affect the props obtained.
Tip 2: You can also jump in and give it a try.
The translation of this player is: Your money has somewhere to spend it.
There are not many comments on the translation post, there are only more than 10,000 at the moment, and the responses from players are mostly negative rather than positive. After all, most players nowadays are eating and waiting to die at Wanghaiya, with almost zero exploration of the outside world. Now throw it out
Such an event... is not helpful at all for exploration.
Mu Su signed up by the way, and the Death Tournament will start in five days.
He also found an interesting post on the official website.
Ten days ago, a player community called Steam Earth announced that it would join "After Sleep" and stated that it would bring new development trends to "After Sleep".
Steam Earth, a notorious society.
This society is neither a gangster in the game, nor does it take advantage of the large number of people to bully the small number. In fact, excluding those who join in the fun, there are only a few hundred core members of Steam Earth.
What they will do... is to pick a fifth-generation game with an open world background, and then develop technology in it.
This behavior can only be supported by fifth-generation games with sufficiently powerful computing capabilities.
Sounds great. But when you are a legendary wizard preparing to face the evil five-color dragon, and an RPG blasts from the side, it is not so funny.
This group of notorious players has made the original atmosphere of the game miserable. When you face the slimes with the novice sword, they are collecting resources. When you face the rabbit with the novice sword, they start to make crossbows. When you face the slime with the novice sword, they start to make crossbows.
The most basic flintlock rifle was already equipped when they changed to the iron sword to hunt wild wolves. After finally reaching the level and being able to change jobs, their airship was floating above the Novice Village.
To a certain extent, this group of players can also be substituted as goblins in the DND background, but they are more insane than the goblins.
Their most famous act is roughly three years ago in Hellraiser.
A multiplayer online game set in hell. Hell, there must be a lot of resources such as metal and sulfur. So they worked hard to extract resources, established a research laboratory, extracted resources carefully, and obtained uranium ore to make a reactor——
Currently, the Hell of "Raging Hell" is still running, and the most dangerous area is an artificial landscape named the Lower Cave.
Fortunately, most of the "After Sleep" fans are relieved that they have not caused any trouble so far.
The more than 100 members who entered early were dispersed and immediately assigned to Wanghai Cliff. They soon discovered that there was no grass growing here, and the only resources were rocks.
They settled for making stone spears and axes, converting sand into silicon to make small central systems, or setting up simple power generation equipment.
Other players blocked it like crazy. Wanghai Cliff is only so big, so if you dig a little bit less, you can't withstand their misfortunes.
But on the one hand, these players desperately hope that they can develop, preferably a larger ship and airship.
This is the only example of a game that has not left Novice Village for two months.
"It looks very much like me. If my education wasn't high enough..." Musu thought bitterly. He also wanted to hold the P90 Tutugi and make Freddy kneel down and call daddy.
Taking off the game mask, the female synthesizer was cleaning the room again. A piece of scenery was revealed in the robe when she bent down. She was hard-on, but Musu was shocked to find that she was not in heat at all!
After secretly licking his hair, Saint Mu Su returned to the game and started a new round of dungeons.
…
"Then everyone is here."
Two days later, outside the hut on Wanghai Cliff, six people were sitting on a few rocks, with their feet soaked in the water, leaning against the hut and chatting.
The mist filled the air, and the wooden piles standing on the edge in the distance were looming.
"We have discussed this with you a long time ago, so this time I mainly want to talk to you."
Mu Su nodded sincerely: "Are you going to have sex reassignment surgery? I wish you success."
Transparent Bridge's tone paused.
"Puff puff." Kallen covered her mouth and snickered.
"You guy... it's actually me, Wen Xiang, Lord Grim is planning to commit suicide and look back at the sea cliff. Listen to me first... You have also seen the situation here. There has been almost no change in the month since you left. The initial layout
The plan to dive into the sand has not even started... If we insist on staying here, we are putting the cart before the horse."
"After committing suicide, we will search for supplies from the outside world, and then bring the resources via wooden boats. If possible, I will try to capture a boat for our use."
Since we have said it before, it means everyone agrees. Mu Su shrugged his shoulders and had nothing to say.
Kalian raised his hands and suggested: "Now that everyone is here, let's arrange a copy!"
Transparent Qiao shook his head: "I have to go to class in a few hours, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time."
Mu Su chuckled and suggested: "Then how about we have a fun and exciting running group?"
"Running group...what is that?" Wen Xiang asked curiously.
"That doesn't sound like a good idea..." Lord Grim muttered in a low voice.
"You can understand it as a way for people who cannot enjoy gaming due to technological limitations to play RPG-style games through realistic role-playing." Transparent Bridge understood it and said with interest: "You can give it a try."
