Volume 7: The Chamber of Secrets of Blackstone Mountain (Remastered) Chapter Forty-Eight: Full Opening

The "Lasgard Parade of the Dead", which lasted for nearly a month, not only announced the powerful military power of the Devouring Serpent to the entire player group, but also brought Yu Bin a lot of gains.

The first is the town core, under the excavation of nearly 50,000 players from more than 30 labor unions day and night, a total of more than 200 town cores have been unearthed from the Lasgard area, of which more than sixty percent have been bagged by the Devouring Snake, and Yu Bin alone has obtained fourteen ordinary cores and four enhanced fortress cores, of which six ordinary cores and one fortress core belong to the undead clan. These town cores were used by Yu Bin without hesitation to strengthen Naxxramas, expanding the coverage area of the territory to a radius of four kilometers in one fell swoop.

This scale is enough to meet the construction needs of a medium-sized city, and there is even a surplus. And this is the limit that Naxxramas can reach, although it is not impossible to continue to strengthen it, but the number of town cores required will increase exponentially, and the input and output will not match at all.

What's more, in Yu Bin's planning, Naxxramas will play more of a role as a military fortress in the future, after all, its geographical location determines that it is difficult to develop commerce and economy, although the Great Hengduan Mountains give Naxxramas natural protection and rich natural resources, but at the same time, it also restricts the communication between this territory and the outside world, and the teleportation array alone is completely unable to afford large-scale commodity and material transactions.

In addition to the core of the town, there are also a large number of architectural debris and ruins, although most of them have been extremely damaged, but the remaining relatively intact architectural remains still provide Yu Bin with a lot of architectural drawings, and even three relatively well-preserved special buildings were completely dismantled by Yu Bin and installed in Naxxramas. They are the Revenant Tower, which accelerates the gathering of the power of death, the Dark Canopy, which absorbs the dark elemental to strengthen the defense of the territory, and the Eternal Tower, which resembles the Esoteric Sanctuary.

The Tower of the Revenant and the Dark Canopy are unique to the Undead, usually only forts and military towns are built, while the Eternal Terrace is a unique building of the Drow Elves, and at the suggestion of Martan, Yu Bin placed it next to the Arcane Sanctuary, which looks like a cylindrical tower next to the pyramid.

The architectural drawings include most of the functional buildings of the four major races, so that in addition to the seventh-order soldier bone dragon recruitment building [Dragon Bone Graveyard] has not yet been settled, Yu Bin has basically collected the recruitment building drawings of the 0 to 6 level troops, plus the strengthened town core, theoretically speaking, as long as these recruitment buildings are built, Naxxramas can recruit the highest sixth-order skeleton warriors.

Of course, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is skinny! If Yu Bin used to guard the treasure land of the Angelis Mountains and suffered from not having strong strength, then now he can only put them away when he looks at those drawings.

Not to mention the massive resources required to build these functional buildings and recruiting buildings, even if Yu Bin can prepare the required resources in various ways, he will face a cruel reality, that is, a shortage of people!

For an undead lord, the most important thing is not gold coins, nor various natural resources, but death crystals, the former is the basic material to keep the territory functioning, and the corpse, which is necessary for the territory to grow and grow. For any undead territory, the lack of the former will make the undead living in the territory weaker, and without the latter, the population will not be able to expand at all.

Ordinary undead towns are rarely stuck in these two basic resources, because they were originally built on the undead lands of death, in which the undead living in the territory themselves can use the dead lands under their feet to maintain their power, and even grow slowly, and at the same time, there are countless corpses buried in the dead lands under their feet, which is enough for those undead lords to use unscrupulously.

But Naxxramas can't, Yu Bin's territory is built in the Angles Mountains, surrounded by a pristine environment that has never been explored, in this environment, the meager power of death is like a tree without roots in water without a source, or it will not be long before it will be purified by the rich power of nature. The reason why Naxxramas has been able to develop to this is that on the one hand, it relies on the enhanced death core that Yu Bin used to transform the Hero's Graveyard at the beginning, and on the other hand, it also relies on Yu Bin's massive amount of death crystals that he has invested day after day, and he has used this method to maintain and even further expand the power of death in the territory.

As for another basic resource, the corpse, the situation is even worse. The most stable source of Naxxramas' corpses to date was the beasts that lived in the Angelis Mountains, and they relied on Thassarian and the soldiers of the territory to hunt to meet the needs of the territory. And this method can't last forever, not to mention that those beasts will always be killed one day, just those terrifying and powerful creatures in the Great Hengduan Mountain Range are enough to make Yu Bin scared, worried that when he opens his eyes, he will see that the entire territory is ravaged into ruins by some terrible creature.

Therefore, those architectural drawings in Yu Bin's hands cannot be turned into actual combat power in a short period of time, and only with the gradual growth of the death force in the territory and the gradual increase in the population of the territory, can Yu Bin build a more advanced and powerful army. The two are mutually reinforcing.

Of course, in addition to these architectural drawings, the harvest that can be effective in the short term for Bin may be the rewards provided by those dungeons.

Among them, there are fifteen academic scrolls alone, and there are twenty-seven academic points, which really alleviates Yu Bin's increasingly stretched demand for academic points.

Yu Bin's personal level has also been upgraded to level 4 143, as long as it takes a while, you can carry out advanced challenges again, I have to say that this may be the easiest time for Yu Bin to upgrade, among which the hundreds of thousands of players in the Pharaoh Alliance have contributed a lot of experience points.

From this, it can also be seen why the battles between players in previous lives are becoming more and more frequent. As the level increases, the experience points gained by hunting those monsters are becoming less and less satisfying, so it is natural to look at other players.

And the players who had the foresight to do so have begun to search for the core of the town at any cost, hoping to gain territory and build an army in this way to help them continue to grow rapidly.

Time is also in this silent passing, slowly coming to the New Year's Day of 2027!

The arrival of the new year has not diluted the situation that has become increasingly anxious and chaotic. As more and more players enter and profit from the world of Entagri through the ring, no one can turn a blind eye to it. Especially as players with high-end rings continue to develop new features for rings, those who don't get rings are increasingly jealous of the lucky ones.

This is also fueled by various forces and institutions, and even some influential families. While the parade of the dead in Lasgard was in full swing, the reality was that attacks on players were also increasing, and more and more players began to realize that the world had become very strange and even dangerous.

Fortunately, due to the existence of the Body-Eater Serpent, the governments of several major countries in the world have taken precautions against this, and this chaotic situation has not swept the entire world as it did in previous lives. Under the premise of being dominated by the snake that devours the body and the governments of various countries secretly participated, the entire player group quickly passed the "chaotic era" that Yu Bin remembered in his previous life, and directly stepped into the "competition for hegemony" dominated by the big guild.

This can be regarded as Yu Bin preserving some vitality for the entire human race! Although the starting point of all this is just for his own interests.

And as the clock strikes midnight, the most important moment in the world of Entagri has finally arrived!

Fully open!

It didn't kick all players out of the world of Entagri as they did in previous updates. This time the change is very hidden, as if the silent spring rain has completed all the changes unconsciously in everyone.

Only those who sleep in the middle of the night will be able to feel this change. As long as their soul strength meets certain conditions, they can enter the world of Ntagri in their sleep, the only difference is that they do not have the guidance of the ring, and can only rely on their own guesses and judgments to carry out a series of operations such as character creation.

In addition, without a ring as a relay, these new players will not only not be able to enjoy the rewards that come with the ring, but will even have to face a harsher environment. Their soul energy is consumed faster, they lose more soul energy after death, and they can't strengthen themselves by consuming soul power.

All these disadvantages make these new players more aware of the advantages brought by rings, and also make them more interested in those who have rings. In the previous life, it was with the advent of full opening that the world that had already begun to fall into chaos slipped further into the abyss, and countless new players attacked those old players unscrupulously for the sake of rings, even at the expense of using various legal or illegal means. This brought the chaos to a climax, and it lasted until the year after the full opening, when governments stepped in to regulate disputes between players, relying on the support of large institutions and large families.

As a result, countless unions were established, and then in the continuous mergers and reorganizations, the super-large guilds of the previous life were born.

In this life, due to the early intervention of the Devouring Snake, this order is reversed. Relying on the rings in their hands, governments have established a large number of guild organizations first, and with the arrival of full opening, new players are quickly absorbed by these guild organizations after entering the world of Entagri and are included in the government's management. Even if there are some fish that slip through the net, they can't make waves like in their previous lives, and in the whole real world, vicious. The frequency of events has decreased significantly.

Of course, this is for Yu Bin, who has experienced a previous life. For the governments of this generation, even such riots, which are countless times smaller, are enough for them to face the enemy and mobilize all their forces to maintain social stability.

In addition, in order to compete for the core of the town and establish its own territory, the real government agencies and large families focused on the guilds they controlled, which allowed the Devourer to complete the first slimming operation smoothly.

On the third day after New Year's Day, Yu Bin left Changchun with Shen Tianyi and said goodbye to the apartment they had lived in for a year.

"Don't you have to tell Brother Chen about them?" According to Yu Bin's instructions, Shen Tianyi only brought some change of clothes and said goodbye to this home gloomily, "I think it's good here, why do you want to leave?" ”

For Shen Tianyi, the days of more than a year have been like a dream. With the company of loved ones and a warm home, you don't have to worry about where your next meal will be, and you don't have to worry about bad people having bad intentions towards you. She only needs to complete those tasks according to Yu Bin's request, and she herself is happy to do so, because it can help Yu Bin.

Yu Bin took a final look back, all the traces and items in the apartment that might expose personal information had been disposed of by him, even the clothes that were not taken away had been burned to the ground, and the room had been cleaned and disinfected several times according to the highest standards inside and out. Despite this, Yu Bin was not completely reassured, and he even asked the real estate agent to send those homeless people to live here as much as possible in the next two months, in order to erase the traces that the two might have left in this way.

This is not because Yu Bin has paranoia about being killed, but because he knows very well that with the strength of those state institutions and ancient families, as long as there is the slightest carelessness, their identities may be exposed, which will bring them serious consequences. Yu Bin in his previous life had learned about similar things from various sources, and many of them were those powerful high-level players who died because of this.

"When everything settles down, we can continue to live elsewhere." Yu Bin comforted Shen Tianyi by dragging a trolley case containing simple clothes and all the information about the world of the Devouring Serpent and Ntagre.

Shen Tianyi doesn't have to stay here, for her, as long as Yu Bin is there, it is her home. In this world, she only has Yu Bin as her relative.

The girl smiled and stretched out her hand, put her palm in Yu Bin's palm, feeling the temperature coming from the palm, there was no loss and nostalgia on her face, there was only a yearning for a new life.

"Where do we go next?"

"Go to Hainan! Haven't you always wanted to go to the beach? ”

At night, the boy and girl walked side by side, the snowflakes falling in the sky covering their footprints as if they had never been there.
