Mark Pineapple took a plate of clods of clay that had been prepared and placed it on a table.

The life skills he mainly learned were cooking, not blacksmithing or carpentering, which everyone was interested in.

After all, whether it is a blacksmith or a carpenter, it takes a lot of time and money, and for players like Marco Pineapple who don't focus on making money and improving their life skills, the most suitable skill is cooking.

After all, as long as you learn to cook, you can have a pot, grab a handful of soil, and mix a little material, it is a very delicious pot of delicacies, and you can sell it for a lot of money.

Opening a restaurant is not as lucrative as a blacksmith or carpenter, but it is not bad.

The most important thing is to facilitate the collection of intelligence, after all, if there is a game that allows you to go in and sit down and eat something to visit, even if there is no big BUFF and benefit, I believe every player will try it, after all, this feeling is very life-like, and the player's experience in the game, the sense of life is also one of the very important aspects.

As the number of players in the restaurant increases, Marco Pineapple can take the opportunity to gather more information, and he has recently collected a very important piece of information.

A new underground forest farm.

Of course, this underground forest farm was not found by the players themselves, but they heard about it from a guard in Winterfell during the game, and the guard seemed to know from some gossip that there was a hidden underground forest farm about a day away from the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon, and for players in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon, although cutting down trees requires doing math problems, it is even more troublesome if there are no trees.

If you can discover this underground forest farm, it will definitely be a great change for the course of the game, and it is obvious that you will not be able to resist this temptation for an adventurous player like Marco Pineapple.

Of course, the player who knew the information had already tried to find the forest farm on his own, but failed. Because there was nothing in the direction indicated by the intelligence, the passage was narrow and did not look like a space where trees could grow.

But Marco Pineapple hadn't seen it with his own eyes, so he didn't believe that the player's message was fake.

He's ready to go.

Climbing ropes, hooks, walking sticks, spare boots and gloves, tents, sleeping bags, glow sticks, magic lanterns, compasses, and even a barbecue grill, insulated kettle, and a bottle of potions.

These were the main things, and it was not the first time that Marco Pineapple had gone on an expedition, and he was already very familiar with such things, and after making preparations, he immediately set off and headed for the location mentioned in the information.

Because the capital accumulated in the game is enough, mainly because of tutoring those NPCs in the old city, yes, even now, Marco Pineapple will still go to teach the children of those NPCs, assign homework to earn magic stones.

He even spent magic stones to buy a bipedal bird from the player's hand, which not only could carry his goods, but also greatly reduce the time spent traveling.

Originally, it was reported that it would take more than a day to walk, but after having a bipedal bird, it only took half a day's work, and Marco Pineapple had already arrived at the designated place.

As the player said, the passages are narrow, and there are no creeps, no forks in the road, and it doesn't look like there's an underground forest farm.

But most of the hidden passages can't be placed directly in front of you. Marco Pineapple has played so many games and knows that it must take some effort to find the hidden location.

The map of the scene in front of me is just a narrow passage, and there are no complicated roads or forks to choose from, as long as you look carefully in the neighborhood, you will definitely find something.

He pinned the biped in the passage, then took out a small hammer and hammered it on the wall, trying to find something that resembled a trap or a hidden passage.

But he searched for a long time and didn't see any hidden places, but he didn't give up, but continued to search hard.

When he knocked on one of the walls with a small hammer, he heard a crisp echo from inside, and his expression changed suddenly, and he quickly took out a small shovel from the package and knocked it against the wall.

As he imagined, the wall was not thick, and it was empty, and by the time he hit it a third time, it had already been knocked out of a small hole, and the rest was very simple.

After about half an hour of continuous knocking, the wall completely cracked, revealing a wide space inside. It was a hidden passage blocked by a wall.

It was pitch black inside, without any glowing vines for lighting, and to be on the safe side, Marco Pineapple fixed a stake at the door, tied a rope, and then put the bipedal bird and most of the things there, and then he tied the rope around his waist, took out the magic lantern, and walked along the passage, the passage was pitch black, and it was very wide, Marco Pineapple touched around the passage, and made sure that there were no forks in the passage, so he walked along the passage, After about 30 minutes of walking, the view in front of me suddenly widened.

The light appeared in a corner, and at the end of the passage was a huge cliff covered with glowing vines, and this was not the main thing, the main thing was in the valley below, a lush forest that stretched as far as the eye could see.

"! Did I find it so quickly?"

Marco Pineapple was so excited that she couldn't describe it in words, and now it was time to figure out how to get from this cliff to the valley below.

He was still thinking about how to go down, when he suddenly saw a group of beastmen rushing out from both sides of the side.

Those beastmen were wearing safety helmets, and there were magic lights on their helmets, and each of them was holding a string of ropes in their hands, and they were also stunned for a moment when they saw Marco Pineapple appearing in front of them, obviously they didn't expect that someone else would appear here.

Because he has been focusing on finding hidden gameplay and game locations, as Marco Pineapple, he has not improved his own strength, and he has not participated in any training in combat skills, just like the big man of hemp rope science and technology, focusing on his own things.

Because of this, his race has always maintained the original level of goblins.

So in the eyes of the beastmen, there was a goblin in full armor, with all sorts of tools and ropes tied.

The beastmen hesitated, then rushed towards Marco Pineapple.

"Catch him, don't let him escape!"

Someone shouted like this, and of course Marco Pineapple began to run away immediately, trying to escape from the pursuit of this group of beastmen.

But how could a goblin outrun the beastmen, let alone around such terrain, except for the cliffs, there was no place to run, Marco Pineapple was quickly caught by these beastmen, and tied up with ropes.

"What to do? How can there be a goblin?"

When the beastmen caught him, they quickly began to talk, and one of them, noticing the green symbol on the head of Marco's pineapple, was stunned for a moment and said:

"Wait, this person seems to be from the dungeon of the Eternal Kingdom, you look at the green symbol on his head, everyone in that dungeon has this symbol!"

"Is the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon the same one that defeated Master Morgan and Master Andrew?"

Marco Pineapple listened to what the beastmen said, and he still remembered that Morgan and Andrew were both heirs to the Eternal Flame dungeon.

Among them, Morgan is Andrew's elder brother and is the second heir to the Eternal Flame, and Andrew is the third heir. Of course, both of them have been defeated by the valiant players.

Do these beastmen have anything to do with the dungeons of Eternal Fire? Otherwise, how would they know about Morgan and Andrew, or that Morgan and Andrew are too famous, so they know?

"Then you can't keep him, let's kill him quickly, our stronghold below must not let others know that this underground forest belongs to us!"

One of the beastmen said this, and Marco Pineapple wanted to defend himself and use his incorruptible tongue, but before he could speak, the other man had already put a knife on his neck, and then slashed Marco Pineapple hard and died.

By the time he reacted, Marco Pineapple was already waiting for the reborn interface.

Looking at the pitch black, Marco Pineapple was stunned for a long time, and then he was resurrected at the resurrection point, looking at the dungeon of the eternal kingdom where people came and went, and looked confused.

All his bipedal bird and other equipment were left there.

It took a few minutes for Marco Pineapple to react, and his sad feeling immediately flooded his heart.

Although Marco Pineapple doesn't like to practice his combat skills or pursue equipment and other things, no one can understand the feeling that he has lost all of his bipedal birds and so many expedition equipment that he has finally bought.

He screamed and burst into tears.

I'm going to call someone to kill those beastmen!

Marco Pineapple thought so.

————————————————

Sherlock returned to the Hall of Lords from the manor, and by the way, gave Evelyn a vacation so that she could relax and forget what happened in the manor, after all, no matter who knows his body, dealing with a monster who doesn't know what to do, will not be happy, let alone Evelyn, who is very timid and conservative.

Of course, the dog and the parrot returned to the hall of the lord, but Sherlock the black cat, Pineapple, who had been locked in the cupboard by Evelyn, did not open the cupboard, and Pineapple remained in the cupboard.

Not long after Sherlock returned to the Lord's Hall, he noticed that the players of the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon seemed to have a new goal and collective plan.

According to the words of the players, the official has been updated with new content.

But Sherlock didn't think about what he had updated, he had been busy dealing with the Merchant Alliance for the past few days, and he didn't care about the new gameplay or new maps in the players' games, in fact, the existing gameplay and maps were enough for players to play, and the time to do daily tasks might not be enough.

Not to mention the newly established Crossroads Stronghold for players to work on.

With so many factories that need workers every day, what are they going to do if they don't go to the factories to work hard and earn prestige in the crossroads in exchange for equipment and other items?

In order to motivate players to play, Sherlock has even put things of the level of magic books and legendary equipment into the prestige exchange reward.

Sherlock quickly opened the forums and browsed through them to find the so-called game update that gave players a new goal.

[About the fact that I discovered a new underground forest]

Underground forests?

Sherlock was stunned for a moment, he quickly clicked on the post, and then began to read.

"I'm Marco Pineapple, and today I'm going to share with you the story of my adventures about my discovery of a new underground forest.

First, I will release a map that I have made myself.

[Picture]

This is the hidden junction I found in the passage, I have pried the hole open with a small shovel, if you find it, you can enter directly from here, I also put a biped bird and a lot of luggage and equipment at the entrance of the hole, but now there is no more, I went back to see it once, and I didn't see my biped around, if you find it nearby, please let me know, I will thank you from the bottom of my heart.

But that's not the most important thing I want to talk about, the most important thing is that there are other people in the underground forest I found out!

There are already about seven or eight beastmen out there, and they're going to kill me, and if you see them, take them out and get my revenge!" As for whether they set up camp or set up a stronghold there, if there are any other races or whatever, I don't know, I just entered and was caught by them and killed, it's really hateful, from their conversations, I guess they have something to do with the Eternal Fire Dungeon.

Because they mentioned Morgan and Andrew, both of whom were people from the Eternal Fire Dungeon.

I'm sure the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon will be our next big expansion, but before we can get to the Eternal Flame Dungeon, we'll have to take over the Underground Forest I found!

I'm passing on this information and intelligence for free, just hoping that everyone can develop a new way to play with me!"

[yinyy1994: The big guy is the big guy! ] I even shared it with us for free! 】

[Crotch Zhang San crazy: Cowhide! ] I'm going to go to the place the big guy said now, and if you see those beastmen, I'll definitely help you kill him! 】

[Chen Shiyi: Our guild is ready to go, by the way, make an advertisement [XXX] The guild will accept people! 】

[Light Keruo duckweed: Upstairs, your guild is called [XXX]? 】

[Umegawa Kuko: Dude has something! 】

………………

Marco Pineapple's post is not long, most of the rest are with pictures, and behind the post are the players' replies, the main reply is to express respect for Marco Pineapple, after all, it is for players to be able to pass on the information of the underground forest they have discovered, rather than slowly cutting down trees to make money by themselves, which is already remarkable.

At least they ask themselves, if they find an underground forest, they will definitely sneak down the trees there, and not let anyone compete with them, even if there are other wild monsters there, NPCs are hostile, and they will kill themselves or something when they see it, then they will pass without hesitation, and it is a big deal to resurrect after death.

And this post of Marco Pineapple stimulated the curiosity of the players for the first time, and made them excited, the most important thing is the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon and Winterfell, the contracted lease of the forest farm has been cut down by the players, and there is not a single tree, and now there is a new underground forest farm to make up for this gap, then the players are of course very excited, and want to cut down the tree immediately, after all, whether they are upgrading equipment or making furniture to build houses, etc., wood is a much-needed item.

After all, the wood that the Free City of Victoria can provide is limited, and the main thing is that the price is too high.

This is what players are talking about as the new update.

"I found a new underground forest farm, and it was so close to the dungeon of our Eternal Land, I didn't even know it before."

After reading Marco Pineapple's post, Sherlock muttered to himself with emotion, and Blue quickly replied:

"I didn't expect it at all, Sherlockmaster. However, I have calculated the scope of the underground forest forest farm, and the scope of our Eternal Kingdom dungeon cannot be included in the core scope at all, unless I can upgrade it by two levels. ”

After absorbing several dungeon cores, Blue's current dungeon level has reached level 4, but Sherlock has not started the 4th test due to the lack of mana supply, which is the so-called open beta.

You have to find a way to solve the problem of the source of mana before you can start the open beta, otherwise I am afraid that it will not be many days before countless new players will drain the mana, even with the addition of Lilo of the Fallen Angel.

And the current solution is to find a mature enough world tree, and it is quite suitable to grasp the world tree that has just been discovered, but now Sherlock has not thought of how to connect his dungeon core with the world tree unconsciously, and if he directly occupies the world tree, it will cause a terrible world war, and even if he relies on the strength of the players, he may not be able to resist the attack from all walks of life.

"Lord Sherlock, I think this is a very good opportunity to take that dungeon forest farm for yourself, although our dungeon core cannot be extended there, but that underground forest obviously does not have any owner, after all, it is so close to our dungeon, and there is no other dungeon that can make a home here."

Blue said this, and Sherlock nodded, apparently agreeing with Blue, and then commanded Blue:

"Prepare new Dailies to guide those players to that forest farm to set up a colony and portal, and I'll arrange a new Beetlemon bus route to go there, but now I think it's time for a refresh." After Sherlock finished speaking, he began to edit the official update post in the forum post.

【Version 0.39 Update Announcement】

"Dear players, after more than half a year, we have finally ushered in version 0.39, and we will introduce the relevant content of version 0.39 to you here in detail.

We have updated the new stronghold, Crossroads: A complete city where players in both the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon and the Victorian Free City can operate in the city, and is protected by the rules of the Safe Zone and cannot attack other players, including the opposing faction. Not only that, but players on both sides can also receive special Crossroads Stronghold daily quests here, and after completing the Crossroads Daily Quests, they can get the reputation of the corresponding Cross Stronghold, and the prestige rewards are very rich, even including spell books, and many other rewards such as legendary equipment. Correspondingly, the daily tasks that need to be completed at the crossroads take more time;

We have added a new way to play [Factory Work]: there are new factories in the crossroads stronghold, and these factories are the common property of both the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon and the Free City of Victoria, not the outsourced work owned by the alien dungeon, so every player friend can get the corresponding prestige reward for working in the factory, we now support long-term workers, and encourage everyone 996, 996 is the future;

We have added a new NPC [Turtle Frangipani]: Although the name is the same as the commander of the Old God Legion you defeated, Frangipani, it is definitely not the commander of the Old God Legion, but a pet turtle that our dear Sherlock Lord just purchased, its role is not known at the moment, but it is certain that in the future it will become an important NPC member of the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon;

We have updated the new map [Unknown Forest]: This is an underground forest area hidden in the dark passage and the tree species of the forest, we don't even know the name yet, this needs players to explore by themselves, has been explored by the player Marco Pineapple to the specific address, and the rest of the content, players can explore by themselves and get rich rewards;

We have updated the new content [Victoria's Wyvern]: This is the Wyvern that attacked the players of Victoria's Free City not long ago, and it is the content we updated before, although it is not clear where the Wyvern has gone now, but if it is possible, I still hope you can catch it, but this possibility is not very high;

We have updated the new content [Glitter Town]: This is a town located in the surface world, and its ownership belongs to the Duke of York, but the current mayor of Little Gold Town seems to have a close relationship with Lancelot Knight's new wife, the pseudo-mother Gnavier, and the entire Glitter Town seems to be more inclined to the players of Victoria's Free City rather than the brutal Duke of York, maybe this is a good opportunity to weaken the power of the Duke of York;

We have updated [Healing Magic]: Through the Adventure Quest of Rain Tea players, we have now opened the exchange of healing magic, whether it is players in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon or Victoria Free City, they can use the magic book to redeem it;

We have updated the new role of the Holy Light: Now the Holy Light can be used to heal the injuries of players in the Free City of Victoria, but it cannot be used to heal the injuries of players in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon, and the treatment method for the injuries of Eternal Kingdom Dungeon players can only use healing potions or healing magic;

We have updated a new bug: if you casually tell other NPCs about the discovery of the Underground Forest, it is likely to cause your character to die suddenly and all your equipment to be destroyed, not just kidding.

Leave a hole, and if you find any updates that we haven't written, you are always welcome to write them for us. ”

After writing this, Sherlock read it from beginning to end, then he thought about it and added a few more words:

"Also, here's a preview of the upcoming open beta.

We've opened up two factions, Free City Victoria and Dungeon of the Eternal Kingdom, and improved the story and gameplay of the opposing factions. The gameplay that players are experiencing so far is not our final version of the gameplay, and there may be some changes in the open beta version that we will be exiting in the future, if you have any good comments, you can also feel free to let us know in the forums, and we are always open to discussion.

The key to the open beta lies in the relevant content brought by the adventures of the players who grasp the root treasure, among which the tree of life is the key to whether the open beta can be opened as soon as possible, and we will launch game content related to the tree of life in the future, please prepare for the players of the free city of Victoria and the players of the dungeon of the Eternal Kingdom.

Advancing the Open Beta will be your primary goal in the future.

I hope you all have a good time and love your planners. ”
