Legend of the Pinnacle of Online Games

Chapter 117 Squad Name (Fifth update, two chapters combined, please subscribe)
A guild needs a guild-building order to be established.

A squad needs a squad order to be formed.

When Lin Hanchuan held the squad order, its information automatically appeared next to him.

[Squad Order]: When used, it can create a squad.

Note 1: It is necessary to go to the church and have the saint witness the establishment.

Note 2: By default, the player who uses the squad order is the squad leader. After the squad is formed, the squad leader position can be transferred to other members of the squad.

Note 3: Once the team name is confirmed, it cannot be changed unless the team is disbanded and re-established.

Friendly reminder: Squad tokens are one-time use items.

"This is truly an unexpected surprise!" Lin Hanchuan held the squad token and examined it carefully. Squad tokens are indeed items that can be obtained in the early game, but they usually only have a chance to drop from monsters above level 20.

Lin Hanchuan never expected to get one from running a level 10 dungeon.

In the entire Ninth District, there is probably only this one squad order in Lin Hanchuan's hands.

"We need to use it as soon as possible and get the district-wide announcement!"

Putting away the squad order, Lin Hanchuan took out the last item from the golden treasure chest.

It's a blueprint.

Lin Hanchuan glanced at it, the joy in his eyes, though not as much as when he saw the team token, was still obvious. "Another tavern building blueprint appeared, plus the team token, this first clear of [Trap Corridor] is a huge win!"

In the city you arrive in, simply buying land and trying to build whatever you want on it is not enough.

You need blueprints!
Without blueprints, you can't build a structure.

Or rather, it's impossible to build complex structures.

Some simple mud houses are still fine.

Otherwise, given the players' personalities, they could build a 999-story modern skyscraper, a single building that could house an entire city's worth of players.

That's outrageous!

This is something players can only do in a country they have created themselves.

Even in his previous life, Lin Hanchuan had never heard of anyone establishing a country in the world, and even if they did build a city, there were very few.

[Level 1 Tavern Building Blueprint]: After use, you can summon the building race from the Descent to build a Level 1 tavern. The minimum building area required is 1 acre. After completion, you will randomly receive five wine brewing recipes, as well as the tavern's internal infrastructure.

Personnel Requirements: A master architect

Minimum investment: 1000 gold coins
Note: The number of architects involved in the construction and the amount of money invested will affect the construction progress of the tavern.

"Master-level architect..." Lin Hanchuan looked at the requirements on the blueprints. "Now that players have just completed their main job advancement, there shouldn't be many who have obtained a secondary job, and even fewer who have obtained the architect qualification and upgraded to master level!"

"We can only look among the NPCs!"

Running a tavern will provide Lin Hanchuan with a stable source of income; which player wouldn't want to try the delicious wines that have arrived?

If we find a few real catwomen, foxwomen, or even succubi to work as waitresses, bartenders, and managers, and if they're a bit more curvaceous, the tavern's doors will be worn down!
Although Lin Hanchuan didn't know anything about business, he had frequented taverns quite a bit in his previous life.

After completing a rewarding mission, he would take his teammates to a tavern for a meal.

Thanks to the advanced development of artificial intelligence in the game, players enjoy an experience almost identical to that in reality when eating and drinking in the game.

"If the tavern is run well, it will be a gold mine!" Lin Hanchuan had already begun to plan the construction in his mind.

The sooner the tavern is completed, the better.

Once you establish a reputation in the early stages, you won't have to worry about a lack of players in the future.

After putting away the tavern building blueprints, Lin Hanchuan left the [Trap Corridor] instance.

The moment his figure stepped out of the [Trap Corridor] instance portal, a system notification suddenly rang in Lin Hanchuan's mind.

"Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully become the twenty-first player in the Ninth District to complete the Shura-level dungeon for the second time in Wangyue City."

"Rewards: 500 gold coins, 50 reputation points. A city-wide announcement will be made soon!"

This announcement only plays when players emerge from a dungeon that is isolated from the outside world.

The reward for the announcement is not as good as the first time.

It was cut in half.

But better than nothing.

The next moment, when the twenty-odd people present turned their gazes toward Lin Hanchuan, everyone received a system notification.

"Ding! Attention all players in Moonlit City! Congratulations to player 'Arakawa White Owl' for completing the [Trap Corridor] dungeon for the first time!"

"Ding……"

at the same time.

A new record has appeared on the record stone of the Trap Corridor.

First Place: Arakawa White Owl
Difficulty: Asura level
Clearance time: 1 minutes and 51 seconds

"Holy crap, 1 minute and 51 seconds! Boss, that's awesome!" Cao Renjie, who had been standing guard by the record stone, shouted to Lin Hanchuan as soon as he saw the record that had just been released.

The way others looked at Lin Hanchuan also changed.

They had been prepared for Lin Hanchuan's first clear of the Shura-level [Trap Corridor] dungeon, but the fact that he cleared it in just two tries and kept the record under two minutes truly shocked them.

The difficult-level "Trap Corridor" has hundreds of traps.

For a Shura-level [Trap Corridor], one would have to run through a thousand traps.

Lin Hanchuan cleared all the traps in just over a minute.

He was clearly still a mage.

For a moment, many people felt a mix of emotions.

It felt like my expertise was completely outclassed by someone from a different field.

"Congratulations to Arakawa White Owl for clearing two Shura-level dungeons for the first time." Midnight Dance walked over with a smile. Among so many assassins and thieves, he was the most prepared for Lin Hanchuan to clear the [Trap Corridor] for the first time.

Even before this, he believed that Lin Hanchuan could clear the Shura-level [Trap Corridor] in one go.

"You're too kind! I was just lucky!" Lin Hanchuan said modestly. "Without the strategy you provided, I wouldn't have been able to clear the Shura-level [Trap Corridor] dungeon so quickly."

"Luck is also a part of skill!" Midnight Dancer said earnestly.

Everyone has luck.

But for someone like Lin Hanchuan, who can clear the Shura-level dungeon for the first time in a row, it can no longer be explained by luck.

Lin Hanchuan exchanged a few more polite words with him.

After Long Xiaochen and the others arrived, Lin Hanchuan sent a message in the group chat.

[Building a Bigger and Stronger Chat Group]

Lin Hanchuan: "I got something good!"

Cao Renjie: "What? Captain, what's this good stuff??"

Mo Lingyun: "???"

Lin Hanchuan: "Squad Order!"

Long Xiaochen: "Hiss!!! It's been leaked so early?"

Lin Hanchuan: "It is quite early, but for us, isn't the earlier the better? When we return to the city later, we'll head straight to the church to establish a team!"

Lin Hanchuan was already getting impatient.

He didn't even pay attention to the discussions among players in the public chat channel and the Advent Forum after the city-wide announcement of the first clear of the [Trap Corridor] in Wangyue City.

All he wants to do now is to form a team as soon as possible.

They became the first squad to be established in District 9.

I'll also take a district-wide announcement.

After finishing all that, he still needs to go to the city hall to buy a batch of land that was originally reserved, and then select another piece to build a tavern, laying the foundation for his future treasury. He also needs to continue getting first-clears of dungeons.

These are all things that must be done right now.

busy!
Lin Hanchuan is really busy right now!
Long Xiaoyue: "Captain, have you decided on a name for the team?"

Lin Hanchuan: "How about calling it Heavenly Dao?"

To be able to be reborn and return here.

Lin Hanchuan felt that everything was guided by the mysterious forces of Heaven.

Heavenly Path Squad!

There's also a domineering air about it, like someone who's acting on behalf of Heaven.

More importantly, he clearly remembered that Mo Lingyun had stockpiled the team ID "Heavenly Path," which Mo Lingyun had previously boasted about to him.

Long Xiaochen: "Heavenly Dao?! It's a good name, it has a domineering and invincible feel, but such a good name should have been registered by someone else long ago, right?"

Without Lin Hanchuan needing to answer, Mo Lingyun immediately replied in the group: "I have one! I have a team ID called 'Heavenly Path'. When you register, let me know a minute in advance so I can have it canceled."

Lin Hanchuan: "Hahaha, Lao Mo, you've really gone all out this time!"

Mo Lingyun: "It is my honor to contribute to our team!"

Long Xiaochen: "Salute!"

Cao Renjie: "I admire you!"

Lin Hanchuan: "..."

Sometimes you have to admit that people who know how to talk are just different.

Close the panel.

Lin Hanchuan glanced at the records on the recording stone, hesitated for a moment, and said to Cao Renjie and the others, "Wait for me for a minute."

Done.

Lin Hanchuan then entered the Asura-level [Trap Corridor] once again.

Lin Hanchuan came out in less than a minute.

A new record has appeared on the recording stone.

The Assassin Stars were so shocked their jaws nearly dropped to the floor.

First Place: Arakawa White Owl
Difficulty: Asura level
Clearance time: 53 seconds

Seeing this new record, Lin Hanchuan nodded in satisfaction. After entering the Asura-level [Trap Corridor], he immediately summoned the Holy Sword and activated the defensive barrier.

Combined with previous experience.

He rushed towards the end of the Asura-level [Trap Corridor] dungeon at top speed. If he hadn't accidentally triggered two more traps, which slowed down the Holy Sword's flight speed, his record could have been even higher.

Upon reaching the finish line, the system rewarded Lin Hanchuan with 500 gold coins as the second person to clear the Shura-level [Trap Corridor]. The reward for clearing it next time will be even less.

The treasure chests on the high platform have changed from gold to silver, and the quality of the weapons and items they contain is not very good.

That's how dungeons are; the best ones are reserved for the first clear.

However, for Lin Hanchuan, that was enough. He went down the Shura-level [Trap Corridor] dungeon again just to improve his record.

1 minute and 51 seconds is too long.

Finishing in 53 seconds, that's what makes a real man!
Although there is still a lot of room for improvement, it's unnecessary.

This record is unlikely to be broken for some time to come.

"Alright! Let's go!"

Lin Hanchuan took out a team teleportation scroll.

To the astonishment of Assassin Star and his companions, who were nearly dislocated by their jaws, a white light emanated from Lin Hanchuan and enveloped Long Xiaoyue, Long Xiaochen, and Cao Renjie.

The next moment, they vanished from the spot.

When everyone present pulled their jaws back, their voices trembled.

"My God! The record for the Shura-level [Trap Corridor] is already ridiculous enough that it takes less than two minutes, but now Arakawa Haku has managed to clear it in less than a minute! How did he even manage to do that?!"

"Asura level, 53 seconds, is this even human?"

"I even suspect he used teleportation magic inside the Shura-level [Trap Corridor] dungeon, going directly from the starting point to the end!"

"Impossible. In speedrun dungeons, even in easy mode, teleportation is prohibited, whether by magic or items."

"Look! The public chat channel in Wangyue City has exploded!"

Amidst the gasps and exclamations, the public chat channel of Wangyue City truly exploded.

"Did I just hear that right?! Arakawa White Owl, a mage player, actually got the first clear of a speedrun dungeon like [Trap Corridor]! Is he really that fast?"

"You heard right, Arakawa White Owl has indeed secured the first clear privilege for another dungeon! But there's another bombshell you might not know."

"what news?"

"Arakawa White Owl is none other than the District One Dharma King Night Owl!"

"Isn't this still a rumor? It's been circulating ever since Arakawa Hakuyo was in the beginner village."

"It's been confirmed by some channels! On the Advent Forum, some experts are analyzing the probability that Arakawa White Owl is Night Owl's alt account, and the final conclusion is 90%!"

"If Arakawa White Owl really is Night Owl, then it's normal for him to achieve first clears of two Shura-level dungeons in a row! Don't forget, Night Owl only entered the server a year after it opened. Despite being a year behind others, he managed to catch up and even became the strongest player on the mage power ranking!"

"I'll go check out the Advent Forum!"

Arriving on the forum.

After Lin Hanchuan achieved the first clear of the [Trap Corridor] dungeon, the number of posts about Lin Hanchuan on the forum's homepage increased significantly.

[Shocking! The Ninth District's Arakawa White Owl actually did this to a speedrunning dungeon!]

[The list of potential future Dharma Kings for the Ninth District appears to have been finalized.]

That man, he's back.

……

[Analysis of 18 Key Details about Arakawa's White Owl and Night Owl]

The homepage, which includes news from all nine regions, features eight posts by Lin Hanchuan.

Even when Soul Emperor first logged into the first server, he heard that Lin Hanchuan had completed the first clear of the [Trap Corridor].

Recalling his previous chat with Lin Hanchuan on QQ, Soul Emperor finally made a decision.

A mysterious chat group.

"I'd like to inform you personally that our organization's headquarters in the Ninth District will be located in Wangyue City. Those who wish to continue to be based in the Ninth District with the organization can now shift their personnel and resources towards Wangyue City."

"Okay, Brother Hun!"

"receive!!"

"No problem, Brother Hun!"

……

After receiving a reply.

Finally someone asked.

"Brother Hun, is that Arakawa White Owl the same as Night Owl?"

"If you think it is, then it is; if you think it isn't, then it isn't. But you don't need to speculate anymore. In a couple of days, Night Owl will announce it himself."

The Soul Emperor's words seemed to say nothing at all.

Yet he said everything.
