Chapter 193 192 A spectacle is a misnomer, Your Majesty!

Chapter 193 192…A Spectacle Misguided, O Sire!

Half of today’s posts in the game forums were related to the gangster treasure unearthed by Happy Stick.

Especially that exaggerated “service-wide announcement” made the small players who were addicted to picking up garbage announce that there were also strange treasure hunting games in this game, and that they were the kind that yielded very high returns.

Therefore, no matter whether or not they entered the game, the small players and the forums of the “gluttony party” started a big discussion.

According to the information released by the stick, this kind of hidden treasure often need to collect a lot of scattered clues to determine the general location of the hidden treasure and information, the real difficulty does not lie in the raid monsters, but lies in the collection of intelligence.

After all, are called “hidden” treasure, of course, can not be greatly thrown in the open for small players to pick up money.

After they summarized this article, determined to become an intelligence broker of the meow brother began his own operation, he opened a separate post that his hands at least three may be related to the hidden treasure information, but of course it is not possible to give away for free, interested parties can chat with him privately in the game.

Brother Woo Meow wasn’t making a gimmick, he really had the goods in his hands.

Because he was one of the first players to join the witch hunters, he had also collected a lot of information on the side of the Church of Avalon, and on the other hand, the witch hunters were a community that was good at gathering information, and they had fought all over the Ten Years’ War, so they knew a lot of things about Transylvania and the surrounding areas better than the players did.

What Brother Woo Meow could be sure of at the moment was that a lot of valuable things should be found in the ruins of the city of Sikor in the north of Transylvania that had been destroyed by the Pathfinder Legion.

And from what I’ve heard through the grapevine there used to be a local mining company’s warehouse in the southern mining district.

Finally, there are the Jackals!
Transylvania’s jackal bandits are plagued, but according to the witch hunters, there are several local jackal big bandit gangs have existed for more than twenty years, they are fierce robbers, occupying the mountain for so long without a little inventory can be a bit unreasonable.

Brother Woo Meow was convinced that his three pieces of information could bring him a lot of profit, his only regret was that the number of players was too small at the moment, and he was simply unable to go out on a large scale to explore the treasure.

But this thing has a time limit, if you don’t hurry to get some benefits, when the information fails, it’s all over.

And in the forum lively time, the administrator Alpha also made an official post to the enthusiasm of the players added a fire:

[“Real Other World” today’s online update reminder:
1. Thanks to the free exploration actions of the testers’ ‘on-board joy sticks’, the game’s featured gameplay ‘Secret Stash’ has been unlocked!
There are all sorts of tidbits of information in basically every village and city in this continent of swords and magic, and 80% of them have to do with wealth.

As long as you can find these hidden secret stashes, you can get rich overnight.

However, how to search for the key intelligence from the vast amount of invalid information is the biggest pain in the ass in this business.

Every good secret hunter is the most professional intelligence analyst.

Want to get rich overnight?

Then put on your backpack and go to find the treasure!
Ps:

Dev Team Tip!

There are still undiscovered secrets in Transylvania, so don’t rush into the dangerous high level maps yet, I won’t tell you that it’s because there are still a lot of features in the other areas that haven’t been perfected yet by the tired developer team programmers.

2. Thanks to the testers’ tireless efforts to clean up the city sewers, the number of monsters in the outer city sewers has been reduced to an acceptable level of safety.

However, this does not mean that the shadow of the underground has dissipated.

During the last night of Cadman City, countless people had taken refuge in the sewers in order to escape the disaster, and now, these poor unlucky people had become part of the disaster.

As of today, the ‘Ancient Area’ of the Scarlet Fortress Sewers is officially open!
Brave men and women who are not afraid of danger can continue to search for and fight against larger and more ferocious evils in the oldest and most dangerous hidden areas of the land.

In order to protect the health and well-being of the cute little players, Count Cadman and his Scarlet Consul have sent the powerful and aloof Conservator, Lord Kudel, to enter the old sewers and assist the testers in the larger cleanup.

Bonus Tip!

His Excellency, Kudel, the Conservator, has a peculiar personality and a fiery hatred for all things evil, so be sure to act like human beings when dealing with him.
3. After much waiting and waiting, the programmers in the development team finally got the much needed PVP content done before they drained the last drop of blood and earned themselves a short vacation.

Of course it’s just a new attempt at gameplay for now.

In order to effectively improve the quality of life for the survivors of the Scarlet Fortress, and in order to give them a second form of entertainment besides alcoholism, as of today, Duchess Miriam and her administrative corps have decided to set up a ‘gladiatorial arena’ near the entrance to Sewer 7, which has been completely cleared by the testers.

And the gifted Lord Murphy has decided to name it ‘Fight Club’, to be managed and operated by His Excellency Maxim, the most loyal and belligerent ‘monster’ under his command.

The area will be opened at dusk on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and is equipped with specialized special protective gear to ensure that testers will be teleported out of the combat area when their blood level drops to 1, so there is no need to worry about safety.

In addition to player-versus-player confrontations, testers can also choose whether or not to enter the ‘Gladiator’ mode before entering the arena, in which testers will fight a variety of monsters unique to the Transylvanian region.

It should be noted that the various enemies offered in Fight Club are all ‘Elite’ templates, making the challenge quite difficult, so testers who aspire to make a name for themselves in the underground black boxing scene are encouraged to prepare in advance.

The area can be used as a place to complete the Black Iron Trial, and only requires a fee to be paid in advance to the organizer.

To increase onlooker participation, players can place their bets with Fight Club host ‘Scarlet Woman’ Mary before the start of each fight.

In order to avoid the risk of gambling, the amount of each bet must not exceed 10 gold coins.

4. Miss Fimis, the eldest daughter of the Blood Vulture Clan, will soon return to her hometown. As one of the most talented and gifted psychics of the Blood Vulture Clan, Miss Fimis will become the undisputed leader of the Midnight Faction of the Blood Vulture Clan.

Please have the psionic users among the testers prepare money in advance for learning various powerful skills and purchasing special props from Miss Phineas.

5. Optimized the physics engine to be more realistic, and added more interactive NPCs and random events.

6. Fixed a few bugs.

“???? Fight Club? So Lord Murphy has seen that movie too?”

A small group of players immediately followed, but then it was unanimously recognized as an “egg”.

Cat, who was still in the sewers killing ghouls and practicing his sword skills, didn’t know what was going on in the forums, but that didn’t stop him from getting his due from the warm-hearted Murphy.

[Ding! Congratulations to tester ‘Like a Tiger Can Edgewood’ for winning first place on the server! ‘Glorious Gladiator’ achievement, special title [Scarlet Gladiator] completion progress [1/30].

Upon obtaining this title you will be gifted the PVP Season 1 ‘Bloodthirsty Gladiator’ set and the special carrier ‘Scarlet Gladiator’s Midnight War Colt’ by the Fight Club Operator!

At the sight of this achievement that suddenly popped up Cat froze for a moment, then dumbfounded, he didn’t expect that one of his unintentional actions had actually indirectly led to the birth of a gameplay.

This is also considered to be the development team has once again set up a new way for players to obtain equipment, right?
However, judging from the PVP challenge mode disclosed so far, this thing was destined to only be obtained by a handful of combat players who specialized in skills.

“Hey, tomorrow is Monday, sign up for the challenge together.”

Just as Cat was about to continue honing his skills, a private message from Sister Pomegranate popped up on his interface, the latter saying:

“Let’s see who can get that title first!”

“Yeah.”

Cat replied:
“But it has to wait until I learn advanced sword skills first, how about a PVP fight?I heard you used to be a professional?” “You don’t pry into my business! See you tomorrow night.”

Sister Pomegranate simply agreed and didn’t answer Cat’s curiosity, making the swordsmanship genius a bit regretful, but he then lifted up his longsword and rushed towards the newly opened ancient sewers, which had already become a “leveling area” for small players.

The ghouls here were getting fewer and fewer, and the ghosts didn’t eat physical attacks, making Cat’s skills useless.

He could only find another good place.

However, Cat didn’t know that the moment he stepped into the ancient sewers, he had already been targeted by a guy who regarded this place as his “place of duty”.

Kudel, the civil protection officer, looked at the “blood servant” with a rather skeptical eye.

He didn’t mind having a few more escorts to help him out, but he had to make sure that this guy was trustworthy and couldn’t hold him back.

After leaving the sewers, Murphy didn’t return to the Scarlet Corridor, but went to the city mansion where the Scarlet Consul and her administration were currently located. It was lunch time, and when he came over, Miriam was gathered at a table with Prof. Malcolm and some of his assistants, enjoying a simple but sufficient lunch.

Murphy didn’t push back on the extra bowls Miriam had given him, but he was quick to express his disdain in practical terms for the handiwork of his own Executive Knight and camp’s Great Chef, Franks Shovan.

The stew in front of him with scones was okay nutritionally, but not at all about the taste.

“I’ve decided that the reconstruction of Scarlet Fortress must be put on the agenda!”

The picky-tongued vampire lord put down his own fork and declared that dieting was a virtue, before announcing his decision to Miriam’s scornful gaze.

“The ghouls in the upper area of the sewers have been dealt with to a point where it is safe to allow workers into the city to begin the most basic construction.”

“That will be difficult to do, Lord Lord.”

Professor Malcolm had been given a pair of ancient and expensive aristocratic gold-rimmed crystal spectacles that Miriam had found in the vampires’ collection, replacing his original frames, which had been shattered, and which would have appeared elegant and mild-mannered.

But this middle-aged man with gray hair put down his food and said very seriously to Murphy:
“We don’t have that much manpower, and while I know that more manpower will be coming soon, with all due respect, Your Lordship, we have too much to do right now to spend a lot of manpower in a grandiose restoration of the city.”

“So you think I want to fix the city all at once? Am I such a foolish lord in your eyes? Professor.”

Murphy shook his head as he explained:
“I know that things have to be prioritized, so in my conception, we have to complete the construction of residential housing in these next two months! A minimum of six new residential areas to ensure that the people in Fort Scarlet don’t have to live in tents through the rest of the winter before the first snowfall arrives.

We don’t have much for the surrounding villages for the time being, but now that the war is over at least, they might have a better time.”

“Well, two months, six residential areas.”

Professor Malcolm did some mental math and he said:

“Still a bit tight on time, but if we disregard the aesthetics of the houses and just look for practicality, we should be able to do it. Our cleaners have gathered all the reusable materials properly, and the quarry near the village of Moorland has not suffered too much damage and is ready to be reopened.

After the Kingdom of Nordtorf returns our Bloodservants, rebuilding will be on the agenda.

But the problem is, Lord, that we lack professionals in this area.”

“Right, Lord Murphy.”

Miriam said as she wiped her mouth with a handkerchief:

“I’ve seen halflings building new neighborhoods in Chardonnay Harbor, and they all hire exceptional master builders to take care of the planning and construction, or else building a city on the fly doesn’t end well.”

“Isn’t that a coincidence?”

Murphy said with a shrug:

“I seem to have just the right amount of expertise in this area in my warriors.”

“Huh?”

Professor Malcolm froze, asking rhetorically:

“And the mountain people of the Sax region know how to build? That’s not true, they live in mountain settlements themselves, and at most, they cut into the mountain rocks to build some small villages with the aid of wood, and I’ve seen the mountain people’s houses with my own eyes.

There’s no problem with the sturdiness aspect, but it’s just enough to fulfill the requirements of sturdiness and durability, but building on such a large scale…”

“Our mountain folk are different.”

Murphy waved his hand and casually explained:

“They have seen the world even though they have adopted their own language, they know how civilized people build houses and have summarized their own set of construction concepts from it. They are not quite the same as ordinary mountain people in every way, and because of this, they were able to survive the three massacres of the mountain people in the Sax region by the Kingdom of Goldfinch.

In short, I have decided to leave the construction of the residential area to them.

You should start mobilizing manpower from now on and make preparations, and we’ll start construction once the first group of Bloodservant prisoners have been released and returned!
Of course, I’ll have my architects come up with a design first.

If you guys don’t agree with it after browsing through it, it won’t be too late for us to think of something else.”

Meanwhile, the Heaven’s Chosen Greybeard who was meditating on a drawing in a tent in the forward camp outside the city suddenly raised his head.

He who was having his shoulders gently squeezed by his own assistant saw his tent being lifted open, and then Adele, the E-sister who was extremely popular amongst the players, appeared in front of him.

So the two young girls who were working as His Excellency’s assistants to Beat Ashman immediately exited the tent with good sense, and after they left, Mrs. Adele, who was wearing a cloak to shield her from the sunlight, handed over a mind microphone plug-in and gestured for Beat Ashman to put it into his arithmetic jewel.

She then coughed and said:
“Honorable Lord Greybeard, Master Murphy wishes to summon you for a full report on the designs and plans you have made for our new city.

Please prepare yourself.

I will escort you to the Blood Vulture Cloisters.”

“Huh?”

The entirety of the gray-hitting man was confused.

He glanced at the as-yet-unfinished design laid out in front of him and felt a headache.

This wasn’t even done yet!

Even the street map and the detailed explanation of the buildings’ functions and the city’s general plan were only a third of the way done, and was he really going to be the city’s chief planner?
Hey!
Murphy-sama, do you have some misconceptions about the abilities of a civil engineering student like me?

Is this really a project I can accomplish alone?
