Gamers of the Underworld (Web Novel)
chapter-305

The gamers were unhappy. It was mainly due to the few benefits gained from the Second Winterfell Battle Campaign.

During the First Winterfell Battle Campaign, the gamers could raid the entire Dungeon Lord Main Hall and a few of the shops. Though the number of shops raided was small relative to Winterfell, it was a bountiful haul.

Some gamers were able to sell their loot to NPCs at very good prices.

In the battle with the Ancient Gods believers, the gamers also obtained considerable loot, including the equipment of the armored NPCs. In conclusion, the First Winterfell Battle Campaign was a fruitful battle for the gamers.

This time, the gamers didn’t receive good rewards because the entire Dungeon was petrified.

Besides the seemingly invincible Samael, who looked like The Thing, there were no other enemies.

As such, there was no loot or equipment for salvaging.

After defeating Samael, the petrification subsided gradually. While the gamers were able to transport some materials from Winterfell, they didn’t obtain practical benefits. The gamers were still unhappy even after they were awarded the title of “Winterfell Warrior”.

If the gamers weren’t allowed to loot Winterfell, they would feel cheated.

As there were no official contact channels or complaint avenues, the gamers could only vent their frustration on the discussion forum.

The gamers wanted to apply pressure on the game officials to show their unhappiness, but “Dungeon” didn’t have channels to top up their accounts. If they filed official complaints, it would be useless as the gamers didn’t spend any money!

However, it didn’t mean that the gamers didn’t spend money in “Dungeon”. The rich gamers had spent up to a five-figure sum.

As for rage quitting, when someone suggested it, there was overwhelming support.

[Please, I beg all of you to rage quit! Please give me the Beta Tester status before quitting. I’m willing to pay less than 10,000 Renminbi!]

[I only hope that China will have fewer people when I cram into public transit, go shopping in malls, and wait for “Dungeon” Beta Tester status. If you are willing to quit the game and create a higher chance for me to succeed, I will be grateful to you!]

[I’m not quitting the game because of my son.]

Even though the discussion was held fervently on the forum, nobody quit the game. Instead, the number of online “Dungeon” gamers reached full capacity.

Sherlock wasn’t bothered as he was busy collecting rewards and compensation.

Sherlock also modified the Doppelganger Precious Pearl so that he could integrate it with Bru. After that, he would be able to bring the modified Doppelganger Precious Pearl to the Surface World to do experiments.

He was going to set up a subsidiary base on the Surface World.

Before that, he had to publish the official announcement for the Third Beta Testing!

[Version 0.3 Update]

“Dear gamers, greetings! It has been half a year. We progressed from 100 First Beta Gamers to the current 2,000 gamers. I believe the 2,000 seats are unable to satisfy the gamers. We are commencing the third batch of Beta Testing and sending out 8,000 additional activation codes and Virtual Reality gaming capsules!

Gamers can register on the official website for the Third Beta Test within three days. The previous Beta Gamer statuses are still valid!

The following are the updates for Version 0.3:

We added new gameplay, Factions: In this world, we aren’t limited to the Underworld residents. At specific locations, there will be Teleport Portals that connect to the Surface World. The Surface World will not sit back and do nothing when they sense the development of Eternal Kingdom. A city, Victoria, is watching the movements of the Underworld…

We will be adding two factions, Eternal Kingdom and Victoria. The factions represent the dark Underworld and the sunny Surface World. A long history of hatred prevents both sides from maintaining lasting peace. However, the future is unpredictable. Whether it’s a win-win collaborative situation or a battleground with flames of hatred, the fate of the factions lies in your hands…

Added a new city, Victoria: After the commencement of the Third Beta Test, you will have the chance to enter the beautiful Surface World city of Victoria. As the main faction city, it will be the main stronghold against the Underworld.

Added a new NPC, City Mayor Lilo: Miss Lilo is a beautiful Duchess and will become the ruler of Victoria City. Don’t bother her with unimportant things as she will not interact with the gamers. As a reminder, Lilo is not a Fallen Angel, Lilo is not a Fallen Angel, Lilo is not a Fallen Angel.

Added a new NPC… I will add once I think of it.

Added a new race, Orc: The Eternal Kingdom faction will have Orcs as a new race. This is a stronger race than the Gnome. They are commonly found as strong warriors, and they form the main combat power of the Dungeon.

Added a new race, Human: Normal constitution with slightly better willpower. Average intelligence, morals, and Mana affinity. It’s an average race.

Added a new race, Fairy: This is a long-eared race with a shorter body than an Elf. They have a longer lifespan than Humans and high Mana affinity, but their constitution is very poor.

Added a new race, Elf: This is a race that lives in the woods. They love tree houses and are protectors of the environment and animals. They are vegetarians. They have good agility, a long lifespan, and good Mana affinity, but their strength is poor.

Added a new Faction Change System: Every gamer can freely change their faction, but there is a 5,000 cap for each faction. A gamer cannot change their faction if the cap is reached. Gamers who are with Eternal Kingdom can pay a fixed amount of Magic Stones to change to the Victoria faction. After changing factions, Eternal Kingdom Reputation Points will be converted to Victoria Reputation Points. Weapon Level will also be adjusted accordingly. Equipment, Magic Stones, private land, and furniture cannot be inherited. However, game coins can be retained.

The price for changing factions is high. Please consider it carefully.

Once there are new updates, I will inform you again.

Everyone will get to experience the new content once the Third Beta Testing commences.

The Third Beta Test will be officially launched two days later. Please kindly wait for the upgrade.”
