Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 602 The Fourth Calamity's Daily Life in Another World: Pioneering, Conquering, and Cursing Uehara Naraku

After the panic subsided.

All that's left is to wait.

For players, all they need to do is wait for the game company to fix the bugs; they have no worries about their safety, or even their lives...

Moreover…

There are no dangerous monsters in this world.

After spending several days in the other world, the hundreds of thousands of players gradually regained their composure, and many began to band together to contact the native inhabitants of this world.

For players, the native inhabitants here are all NPCs.

These commoners are of very low rank; some samurai are only around level 10, and only the top samurai are around level 30. They are not even as good as some players who dropped levels before the game shut down.

In terms of survival alone, there is no pressure for the large number of players.

While cursing the game company, hundreds of thousands of players flocked to various countries, beginning to learn about the world's background story and seeking opportunities for quests and leveling up.

after all…

There are still some players who are over level 30.

Everyone felt the same way: the world the game company updated this time felt very real, as if it were a truly living world.

Every NPC the players encounter feels like a living, breathing person, but it's just too unfriendly for players who are used to being guided by the system.

It takes enough time to gradually get used to all of this.

If it weren't for the fact that players could clearly sense that their magic power, health, and other attributes and items were still intact, they would probably have suspected that they had traveled through time...

However, many players are still looking forward to logging off...

They only wanted to reminisce about their youth, not continue playing the game, but unfortunately, the game system wouldn't crash, and they couldn't log off...

These players were truly helpless...

As a player, when encountering a new map, you will naturally be forced to utilize your adventure skills and start doing what you're used to in this world...

Strategy guide, early game exploration.

Based on current player exploration and intelligence feedback, there are currently four main maps and factions that players can explore in the world.

First, the Kingdom of Riestij.

Secondly, the Bahars Empire.

Thirdly, the Slane Church.

Fourth, the land of dwarves.

Compared to the previous three human nations, only the Dwarf Nation has relatively high restrictions, and only players of the Dwarf race can join.

It doesn't matter.

The hundreds of thousands of players who traveled to this other world encompassed all races, including dwarves, and thus the players also obtained information about the dwarves.

Besides the factions and maps that players have already explored, there are still some unknown ones, such as the Elf Kingdom and the Dragon Clan, etc...

Of course, none of this is a problem for players.

Currently, the maps they are using are relatively basic.

It is said that the most powerful magic-wielding NPC in the Bahars Empire is the head of the Empire's Magic Ministry, yet he can only use fifth-tier magic, making his strength extremely low...

Based on players' speculations…

Perhaps the game company is only just beginning the design phase, which is why they've started with lower-level maps. Maybe the game company is having the world boss, Uehara Naraku, secretly work around to gradually reduce their levels and equipment, forcing them to revisit the new version's maps...

The map itself is fine...

On the contrary, the game company's system is full of bugs.

Once the game company fixes the bug in the offline system, they must demand compensation from the game company, at the very least a Ring of Destiny!

Somewhere in the world.

Uehara Naraku had been secretly monitoring everything here, having frozen time in another reality, Earth, within his black hole universe.

These players believe this is the game world…

Then we can only try to turn this other world into a real game world first.

If he could bring this other world into the black hole universe, Uehara Naraku could try to connect the other world—the game world—the real Earth world.

only…

As Uehara Naraku was transported to another world...

Now, all the tasks assigned to him have finally been refreshed!

Strictly speaking, this other world is the real main world, since it is the core of the anime/manga world!

Everything that happened before…

It's all just about seeking personal gain!

However, whenever Uehara Naraku saw the main quest, a strange expression inevitably appeared on his face, a hint of embarrassment creeping in...

Main quest: Spread your fear throughout the world. Current quest progress: 3%.

If I remember correctly, on the first day I transmigrated to this other world, this number was less than one percent. It rose to one percent in the first two days. Why did it suddenly jump to three percent today?

Uehara Naraku couldn't help but grit his teeth. If he remembered correctly, the only people in this world who knew his name were those players who were still exploring the game.

Although these players seemed to be helping him complete the task...

But these guys probably don't have anything nice to say!

This kind of thing...

Of course it's a given!

No matter what trouble these players encounter in this world, the first person they'll definitely curse is Uehara Naraku!

If it weren't for the purpose of defeating Uehara Naraku...

Their equipment and levels won't drop as much...

If it weren't for the bug in the game update by Uehara Naraku's company, so many players wouldn't be stuck in this situation where they can't even log off and are forced to continue their quest in misery...

If a player is dissatisfied with a game…

The first person to get scolded will definitely be the president of the game company!

Because these suddenly appearing adventurers were hurling insults at a guy named Uehara Naraku, the native civilians of this other world gradually got used to hearing that name...

the name...

This seems quite unusual!

Those powerful adventurers, whenever they encounter something unpleasant, would repeatedly curse a person named Uehara Naraku...

This name suggests an extremely wicked person.

One of the most widely circulated stories…

A group of people who had just joined the Adventurers' Guild quickly rose to the rank of Steel-class adventurers, and their first words were to curse Uehara Naraku...

"That bastard Uehara Naraku is so ruthless!"

"He just swindled our reward like that?"

"At the very least, you should give us some experience points for leveling up, right? What about the profession? You should at least give us a profession level, right? Is that all?"

"Are these NPCs kidding us? We worked so hard to reach the Steel-rank adventurer level. Even without an artifact, at this stage, we should at least get a purple or blue piece of equipment!"

"That's quite a leap..."

"Yeah... there's a huge level difference between legendary artifacts and blue-tier equipment..."

"nonsense…"

The player who had been cursing so smugly now looked utterly annoyed: "If it weren't for that bastard Uehara Naraku who lost so many artifacts and levels, hmph... do you think I'd care about any equipment?"

In the past…

Everyone is living a very wealthy life.

With such a powerful small team, almost everyone had all sorts of pay-to-win items and powerful equipment, yet they still lost a lot of equipment when they fought Uehara Naraku before the server shut down. Fortunately, their levels didn't drop too much...

This small team currently has an average level of around 30. Besides their racial level, they also have some class level, and they can use quite a few skills…

That's why...

This small team became the first adventure group among the players to advance to the Steel-level adventurer rank, but unexpectedly, they didn't even receive a reward...

I can't even see my reputation increase!

These players worked so hard, yet they didn't see any rewards, so naturally they had to curse Uehara Naraku a bit!

This group of players was so enthusiastic about cursing Uehara Naraku that it sparked a collective response from other players in the Adventurers' Guild, which naturally surprised the natives...

These adventurers don't seem to be very satisfied with them...

The problem is, if these adventurers are dissatisfied with them, why are they still cursing that guy named Uehara Naraku?

That's really strange...

Why do these adventurers always curse Uehara Naraku no matter what happens to them?
