The Monster is Coming

Chapter 25 Version Update
With the 1300 million sacrificial power bestowed by the Ice Blade.

Qi Sheng decisively started the third round of recruitment, and this time he planned to issue 10,000 player places.

The primary target is still those players who want to experience the Dark World but are troubled by the price of the game or the difficulty in purchasing it.

It is obviously difficult to recruit new players by promoting a new game.

Even if the description is exaggerated, players will only think it is false advertising, so we have to continue to attract new users quickly in the name of "Dark Land".

That evening, game links promoted by Qi Sheng appeared in many gaming groups.

Most of the gaming groups would choose to kick him out of the group chat, believing that he was an online scammer.

However, there will still be many players who choose to download and experience the game, and then further promote the game to attract more players to join the game.

All 2 eligible places were downloaded in less than hours.

A large number of players logged into the game around 9 o'clock in the evening.

The originally empty resurrection point of Dizhong Village was instantly crowded with players.

With the white light flashing continuously, new players can only be refreshed in various areas of Dizhong Village and are no longer limited to the resurrection point.

"Wow, what a realistic game. The 128888 is worth it."

"I stayed up all night and fought for three rounds. Finally I got it. Hahahaha."

"Individual players are looking for a team. Is there any krypton gold big shot who would like to be a follower?"

……

Tezuka Village is as busy as a vegetable market.

Many players start to do some cool stuff as soon as they enter the game.

Eating dirt, running, self-abuse (pain feedback test)... Evaluate the realism of the game through various methods.

The feedback received made players call it incredible.

While marveling at the realism of the game, the players recruited in this round all tacitly avoided mentioning the download link during their communication.

They believe that exposing pirated links may cause harm to the "welfare personnel" who gave them the game as a gift, and may also lead to the cancellation of their qualifications.

They subconsciously believe that other players around them have purchased the games with real money, so when communicating, many players will take the initiative to show off that they were lucky enough to get the qualification to purchase the game.

Under Qi Sheng's watchful eyes, the players recruited in this round walked out of Dizhong Village and began to explore after understanding the basic settings of the game through the guidance of their companions.

The army of players began to show its ferociousness after it reached a certain scale.

The cursed soldiers that revived along the way became the first choice for players to level up, and they were usually pounced upon by vicious tigers before they could even stand up.

In order to compete for the right to kill the cursed soldiers, various conflicts arose between players, and the regional chat channel was filled with insults.

In the northern corner of the ancient battlefield, a player was tightly entangled by three black-armored snakes.

"Brother, I was wrong. Please give me a way out."

"Who told you to steal monsters? Go back to the Novice Village and die!"

On the east side of the ancient battlefield, a player whose initial form was an eagle-headed monster was flapping his wings madly and running, with a group of players chasing closely behind him.

"Brothers, that bastard is here. Don't let him get away. He likes sneak attacks, right? If we can't kill the cursed soldier, we'll kill you!"

To the west of the ancient battlefield, two teams of players engaged in a monster war for the right to kill the cursed soldiers.

……

In just ten minutes, more than a hundred players were sent back to the Novice Village by their own players and entered the resurrection cooldown period.

The addition of new players also made the ancient battlefield more lively. The power of numbers was fully demonstrated at this moment.

When the first batch of players including Li Zheng entered the game, they were very cautious when exploring, for fear of suddenly encountering multiple resurrected cursed soldiers and being trapped.

But the players recruited in this round have a completely opposite mentality.

They were only afraid of not being able to grab the cursed soldiers, and were not worried at all about having too many cursed soldiers.

Whenever a cursed soldier stood up, nearby players would pounce on him from all directions like cats smelling fish.

The advantage in numbers allows new players to turn the early exploration mode into a blanket sweep.

This made Qi Sheng, who was observing behind the scenes, laugh and cry.

The players' performance also verified his initial idea.

Build a fearless super army with unlimited potential to help him defeat the monster forces, contain the original power, and recapture the lost node areas.

At this moment, guidance suddenly appeared beside him:
[Boss, Yan Ming reported that the test space has been completed.]

Then a light screen popped up in front of Qi Sheng, and Yan Ming looked at him expressionlessly:

"My mission has been completed. I have added many known original abilities to the test database. Although they may not be found at this stage, they may be useful in the future."

"Hard."

Qi Sheng nodded and waved his hand to summon the Challenger System.

As light and shadow interweave, countless mysterious characters enveloped his body.

Among these complex and numerous characters, there is a new string of blue characters.

Yan Ming in the light curtain spoke at this time:

"Xiao Qi, the content has been constructed, and we still need a carrier to assist players in entering the test space."

Qi Sheng heard this, thought for a moment and nodded:

"Then we will build a functional building in Dizhong Village to connect players to the test space."

"Understood." Yan Ming nodded, and the light curtain dissipated.

Half an hour later, the challenger's reminder sounded in the minds of all online players:
[Challenger Tip: The game will be updated to version 1.1 soon, the update content is as follows]:
1. A new functional building "Test Tower" is added to the Dizhong Village. Players can conduct simulation tests on star vein inlay, body forging level, ability combination, and prop usage in the test tower. Each test will charge 1 point of sacrifice power.

2. A "forum" function has been added to the game function panel. Players can post in the forum to communicate and share strategies. There are also additional functions such as post rewards and game live broadcasts (players can still use the forum function through the virtual interface after entering the death cooldown).

(This update is an online update, players do not need to log off and wait.)
……

As the update notification came, the ground in Tezuka Village shook violently.

A tall tower rises from the ruins of the West District.

The tower body is made of black material, and the surface is covered with a layer of blue-purple halo. The top of the tower is sharp and tall, pointing straight to the sky, and a huge crystal ball is slowly rotating above it.

This building is the test tower built by Yan Ming.

The tower is equipped with a spatial rule force that automatically opens up layered spaces. Different players will enter different layered spaces when entering the tower, and will not be affected by other players during the test.

The emergence of the new building quickly caused heated discussions in the regional channels, and the heat then spread to the newly opened forum function version.

Especially the old players who are exploring the dark cave are looking forward to the content of this update.

They are all in the second and third soul selection stages of star vein strengthening, and need the test tower to conduct simulation tests on their future growth direction.
