"This is the leader of the mercenary group I mentioned to you, Black Cat Captain Pineapple."
Sherlock stretched out his hand and introduced the pineapple standing on the table. Behind Sherlock stood the Lich Master and the Black Dragon Goudan.
"Hello, I am the leader of the [no one has chosen this name] group, the black cat Pineapple, Meow."
The black cat standing on the table was not naked as before, but was wearing a small vest. He had no idea when he prepared the small vest for himself.
Nicholas glanced at Sherlock and confirmed that he was not joking, then stretched out his hand to hold the little paw of the black cat Pineapple:
"Hello... [No one has taken this name] Mr. Captain..."
Nicholas finished reading the name a little awkwardly. After all, pineapple can be seen as a very tough guy, but the name of the mercenary group is a bit strange.
"The name is not the important issue. The important issue is that their mercenary group can definitely help you retrieve the supplies and investigate the mystery of the destruction of the dungeon core."
Sherlock had just finished speaking, and Nicholas quickly corrected nervously:
"No, no, no, Lord Sherlock, the core of the transport has not been confirmed to have been destroyed."
"Oh, of course, there is such a small probability. In order to increase the success probability of the mission, I also specially sent the chief lich of the Eternal Kingdom dungeon, the academic master, as their technical hire. My right-hand man, the Dark Flame
Lord Black Dragon Goudan, as his deputy quartermaster, City Lord Nicholas, you can just relax and wait for our good news."
As soon as Sherlock finished the introduction, Nicholas took out his seal and slapped it on the document of hiring [no one took this name] Corps.
"Leave it to you! Captain Black Cat!"

[Lava erupted in the black volcano in the distance, and the splashing red magma looked like abandoned red cauliflower...]
Patrick was sitting in a teahouse in a remote town not far from the foot of the Black Volcano, writing his latest press release.
He became the chief reporter of the Winterfell newspaper after previously reporting on the battle with Morgan in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon.
These are not the most important things. The most important thing is that Patrick understands the meaning of his life, which is to pursue the most unusual news.
Helping an old lady cross the street, clogged toilets, domestic chickens dying of old age, traffic jams, etc. are nothing to Patrick!
For example, if you help an old lady cross the street, even if you don't help her cross the street four or five times, Patrick Star wouldn't even bother to report it.
When he learned about the new crisis in Winterfell from extremely confidential channels, a certain deal between them and the Northern Principality, and after the entire army was wiped out in the Black Volcano due to some special reasons, he immediately rushed to the scene without stopping.
Feeling here, thanks to the now developed portal travel system, it only took him one day to travel from Winterfell, which was on the edge of the northern underground world, to the center of the northern underground world, the Black Volcano.
Here, he heard a lot of [news].
"Have you heard? The volcano is erupting these days. At such a terrible time, who is still digging dirt to eat!"
"What?! How dare you dig fresh soil to eat during the eruption? It's all been contaminated by the volcano. Isn't he afraid of death?"
"He just wants to die. Last time I heard that his wife had an affair with a goblin."
"Hey, that's so miserable. I've only known my wife for five years. I'm really going to die. My eight-year-old child has no biological father."
Chats like this are everywhere in the teahouse.
While Patrick was working hard to write the news report, the owner of the teahouse, a werewolf, wiped the bar table, then put a towel on his shoulders, looked at Patrick and said:
"You're not here to travel to Black Volcano, are you?"
"Well, how do you know?"
Patrick suddenly became alert, but the werewolf boss smiled with his sharp teeth, and then said:
"Now is the eruption period. Except for those tourists from the suicide group and the free group, no one will come at all, and the mental state of those people is completely different from yours now. I have opened a store here for decades.
Yeah, there’s nothing in Black Volcano that I don’t know about.”
"Really? Can I ask you to do some interviews with you? I'm a reporter for the Winterfell newspaper. This is my press card."
Pai Daxing's eyes lit up, and he quickly took out his press pass and showed it to the werewolf boss in front of him.
"Oh, reporters! We welcome reporters here."
The werewolf shouted happily, and then took out a wooden sign that read:
[Teahouse Know-It-All, welcome to ask questions, 1 magic stone for each question. 】
There is also a line of small print below:
[I am just a teahouse owner who knows everything, not everything]
There is also a small line of words below:
[If the question is too difficult, I may not know it]
At the end is a line of almost invisible words:
[All rights of interpretation belong to the teahouse]
Pai Daxing quickly paid a magic stone and then asked expectantly:
"Did another large-scale caravan pass by here two months ago during the dormant period? What happened to them?"
"Those are two questions."
After the boss finished speaking, Pai Daxing had paid another magic stone. The boss accepted the money and said quickly:
"As for the two questions you mentioned, I don't know about the first question. I don't know about the second question."
"have no idea?"
Patrick raised his voice a little:
"are you kidding me?"
The boss knocked on the wooden board.
Patrick Star paid another 1 magic stone, and then asked:
"So are there any suspicious people recently?"
The boss pointed at Patrick Star, who slapped the werewolf boss's fingers away angrily and threw another magic stone:
"Then what do you know? Tell me the most exciting news you know!"
"A free tour group of 5,000 people is coming to our town soon. They have rented a piece of land outside the town. It seems that they don't plan to come to the city to live. As you know, they always
It’s really hard to understand that there is a group of people who don’t like to sleep in the house and like to sleep in sleeping bags. Their goal is to climb the Black Volcano, and I personally think they are doomed.”
After the werewolf boss finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Patrick suddenly stopped him:
"Wait a minute, a tour group of 5,000 people at this time? Where did it come from?"
"It's the Eternal Kingdom dungeon that's been very famous recently!"
————————
The fighting between the [Pioneer Alliance] and the [Chang'an City] guilds quickly expanded in scale. The two parties each recruited several smaller guilds to serve as helpers. Almost half of the guilds in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon were involved.
this battle.
Except for the [Dragon Clan] camp and the [Dongguan Rice Alliance] camp, the two guilds themselves are fighting each other fiercely. How can they have time to participate in the [Pioneer Alliance] and [Chang'an City]? Moreover, these two guilds
The strategic direction is all in favor of the [Pioneer Alliance], but it is impossible for the two of them to form an alliance to help the [Pioneer Alliance], so they simply ignore it.
The battle has become intense. Except for the Eternal Kingdom dungeon, which is a safe zone and members of the two guilds cannot start a war, other places have been bloody. The most intense place is the population of each copy.
Already.
As for the crossroads stronghold and the fishman town, they are also safe zones.
At this time, at the dungeon entrance of [School of the Dead], the two parties experienced another fierce battle.
Yucha stood at the back of the queue, constantly releasing healing magic to the crowd.
"Yucha! Escape quickly! We can't fight here!"
A group of people shouted at Yucha and started to pull Yucha towards the entrance of the instance.
Several people quickly ran into the dungeon with Yucha in their arms. As for the other players, they all died outside without entering the dungeon.
The battle in the wild cannot be one-sided against the [Pioneer Alliance]. Occasionally, a small group of people will be caught by a large force of the enemy. This will happen.
As for escaping into the dungeon, this is also an experience summed up after a long period of fighting.
Equipment that players die after fighting each other can be picked up by enemy players and exchanged for rewards. Among them, you can choose one piece of equipment as a trophy, with the exception of purple legendary and orange legendary equipment.
The equipment that died in the dungeon will reappear in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon the next day, and players can redeem these equipment at a small price.
Then he must have run into the dungeon and then died and returned to the city!
Like the others, Yucha took off all his equipment and put his backpack neatly at the entrance of the dungeon, then walked towards the depths of the dungeon to find monsters and die.
This kind of behavior gradually increased, and it also troubled the [School of the Dead]. When encountering such players who want to die and have no intention of challenging the dungeon, the lichs of the School of the Dead will certainly not be able to defeat the graduates.
Under normal circumstances, the test results will be determined to be invalid and the test will be retaken. This is also normal.
This is not the first time Yucha has died, but he is still a little timid about committing suicide. After all, the game is too real. For a timid player like Yucha, fear is normal.
The other players seemed to be used to it, welcoming death with a smile.
Yucha also closed his eyes, and as soon as he opened them, he had returned to the eternal kingdom dungeon.
Players from the guild saw that their group of people had returned from the dead, and immediately went forward to ask about the situation. They saw their companions who cared about them, followed these players to die together, and were chased and intercepted by the enemy. These were all experiences that they had never experienced before.
After watching the content of online games, the smile on Yucha’s face became more and more frequent.
(Explain what happened last night. Do you have a mobile phone? I was lying on the bed and fell asleep. The mobile phone was kicked to the bottom of the bed. Sorry, I kowtow to everyone. This is a supplementary update after I woke up early in the morning. I will continue to write the first update.
