Chapter 271: Chapter 230: The Players’ Excitement, The Death Desert Has No Secrets of the Players
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The dungeon will open on August 15.
Richard heard the notification and read it a few more times.
After he confirmed he had not misheard, it incited his curiosity.
This dungeon was quite something.
The system will transfer all players’ territories to the instance dungeon, and monsters from other dimensions will attack them.
And the evaluation standard was whether or not the territory could defend itself from capture.
The longer they persisted, the greater the rewards they would receive.
This playstyle incited his curiosity.
He had just plundered hundreds of 3-stars giant alchemy cannons from the underground world.
With such a great weapon to defend the city, wasn’t this the same as hitting the muzzle?
There was one difference between this instance dungeon and the previous one. Richard could spend points to revive troops this time.
With the ability to resurrect infinitely, he could fight without restraint.
Richard’s eyes glowed.
There were 20 billion players in the “Shining Era”. Even if the system eliminated a quarter of the players during this period, more than 15 billion players were still left.
Tens of billions of people competed on the same stage.
Just a thought of it stirred his excitement.
“This time’s instance dungeon is to defend a territory. It’s very different from the previous plot quest.”
“There are still more than 20 days before the instance dungeon begins. We need to build the city walls during this time.
“Additionally, we will prepare as many resources as possible for the war.”
The defense was different from the offense.
When they attacked, they had to consider the number of supplies they had to bring.
However, the defense was different. As long as the territory could accommodate, the more, the better.
Richard rubbed his chin, lost in thought.
“This disaster week–the release of the beasts from the cage, could it be in preparation for this instance dungeon?”
With this in mind, he opened the [Forum Chat] in high spirits.
Sure enough, the players were in an uproar, and everyone discussed the new dungeon.
[F*ck! Can everyone participate in this instance? Hahaha, I didn’t expect I’ll be the champion this time. No need to be polite with me.]
[Everyone, I’m sorry. When it comes to city defense, if my fortress clan claims to be number one, no one would dare to claim to be number two! This time, it won’t trouble us to compete for first place.]
[Seeing the word “instance dungeon” reminds me of that pervert from Qingqiu. Will that guy be participating this time? Judge, can we join hands to drive that bastard out?]
When a small portion of people mentioned the ID Qingqiu, it immediately reminded the players who had entered the instance dungeon last time of the psychological shadow that had caused them to despair on the Lord Ranking Board.
[This mission doesn’t seem to have any restrictions on attacking other players. Everyone must be on guard! If we find Qingqiu, we can not let this guy off!]
[With the blade in hand, kill Qingqiu!]
[No, do you all have to be so afraid of Qingqiu? Didn’t that guy just get a first place last time? If that guy appears near my territory this time, I’ll f*ck him up in half an hour.]
[Sir, you’re so arrogant. What was your place on the dungeon Lord Ranking Board last time?]
[Tsk, if I weren’t unwilling to go last time, first place would have been easy to get!]
[F*ck! You don’t even have the qualifications to enter the dungeon. And you dare to brag.]
The players’ uproar and vaunts continued.
Initially, the players discussed the dungeon. But the topic started to change. Especially when they mentioned Qingqiu. It caused a massive commotion.
In the end, a supremely bizarre scene appeared. Qingqiu and dungeons mixed, and he became a hot object of discussion.
Some felt that Qingqiu was the biggest threat in the next dungeon, and they had to get rid of him first if they had the chance. Otherwise, no one could stand the millions of points they would get.
The other group of players said it was because they were not around. And those who entered the instance dungeon. If they were around, how would Qingqiu stand out?
Those not qualified to enter the instance dungeon boasted with great enthusiasm.
Richard didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Was this considered an undeserved disaster?
After he watched for a while, his hopes of getting more information from the players hurtled.
Most players just bragged, and no one knew more information.
Richard decided to close the [Forum Chat] after he found no more valuable information.
At this moment, an ID that he hadn’t seen in a long time suddenly popped up.
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: F*ck! You got more than a million points in the last instance dungeon. That’s too awesome!]
Qingqiu was speechless.
[Qingqiu: Have you heard about the news of the Qing Dynasty’s fall?]
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: It’s a problem. It’s mainly because I’m not on the principal plane for a while.]
[Qingqiu: Can you open transactions with other planes now?]
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Brother Qingqiu, what are you thinking? During the last battle, a giant dragon accidentally spat on me, and I left the instance dungeon early.]
[At that time, you were still in the instance dungeon, so I did not contact you.]
[My sister and I went to clear the 2-stars dungeon you told me about before after I came out. I have to say, the difficulty of a 2-stars dungeon is crazy. I only came out of that dungeon today. Didn’t you contact your old man immediately?]
It piqued Richard’s interest.
“The 2-stars dungeon was successfully cleared? How strong are the monsters inside?”
The average level of the troops in a 1-star dungeon was rare. Richard had never encountered a single 2-stars.
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: It’s crazy. They’re all rare-level. We spent half a month clearing it. It’s too f*cking difficult.]
As he said that, he started to show off again.
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: However, the harvest was truly bountiful. Let’s not talk about the treasures. I’ve casually obtained seven or eight items.]
[My sister and I have also recruited a B-rank hero each. What do you think? Are you envious? Hahaha, that’s a B-rank hero!]
As he spoke, he became more and more excited.
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Brother Qingqiu, you may be strong, but you may not know what a B-Class hero means. This is a top-tier hero!]
[B-rank heroes in the “Shining Era” are the ceiling one can get at this stage. Now, I have one in my hands!!]
[To obtain this hero, I have suffered so much! Hahahaha, Brother Qingqiu, the next time you come, I’ll show you how powerful that B-rank hero’s talent is!]
It was a rare opportunity for him to show off in front of Richard.
He couldn’t wait to show off his top-tier hero.
Richard couldn’t help but laugh.
He thought of the four to five A-rank heroes in his hands, as well as the boss units–the god’s ancient tree and the divine soul in the ancient god statue…
‘When did B-rank become top-tier heroes?’
[Qingqiu: I’m looking forward to seeing your top hero.]
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Hehehe. Wait for it. Next time, I’ll ask my sister where we teleport a top-notch treasure. I’ll go shopping in your territory.]
He seemed to have thought of something and asked.
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Brother Qingqiu, there is another desert a few hundred miles away from me, which desert are you in?]
[Qingqiu: Death desert]
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: Death desert?!!!! How is that possible? Brother Qingqiu, don’t joke with me. There can’t be players in the death desert.
Richard’s eyes narrowed when he read the message.
[Qingqiu: What do you mean by “there can’t be players”?
[Where’s Your F*cking Italian Cannon: I heard from my sister the death desert is a high-level map. In the later version update, some areas will be connected to the dimensional planes. At that time, powerful monsters will appear and it will be extremely dangerous.]
[That’s why the “Shining Era” didn’t arrange for players to spawn on this map.]
Richard’s heart trembled. He held his breath.
A high-level map that would be connected to a different dimension in the future, without players…
