Novel Full Chapter 667 A New Update Patch!
—–
Just a I logged-in, I wasn’t even able to catch a break, as several notifications appeared in front of my face one after another!
Ding!
[A New Update Patch has been added to the Game. The [Invaders of the Underworld] Season has begun!]
[This new Season brings the might of the slowly awakening Demon King of Death, Thanatos!]
[As the Demon King slowly gathers the strength for his resurrection, [Underworld Gates] and [Nether Portals] will spawn all across the World’s Map!]
[Undead of all Levels and Types will begin invading areas, changing the terrain into deadly Nether and Miasmic Terrains. They especially fancy areas with large populations of NPC, such as cities.]
[The [Nether Portals] vary from Levels 10 to 100, while [Underworld Gates] spawn Undead from Level 110 to 300!]
[While Portals only spawn monsters and then a Boss, which once defeated will make the Portal disappear, [Underworld Gates] are considered Mini Dungeons, and contain their own internal structures, with powerful Bosses inside that must be defeated for the Gates to close.]
[But it’s not all bad! All Event Monsters will drop special, event-only items, while also having increased Drop Rates of +25%, and increased Gold and EXP by +50%!]
[Unique Event-only Armor Sets, Accessories, Weapons, Upgrade Materials, and more can be obtained through this Event from the Undead’s Dropped Items!]
[There’s even the rumor of Special Mythic Grade Equipment dropping from the Gate and Portal Bosses…]
[Additionally, dozens of new Event-only NPC have spawned across the entire World, with Quests ready for you to accomplish and gain additional points.]
[A new Event-only Currency has also been added, the [Nether Coins], which can be obtained only by completing Quests from the Event NPC.]
[You can exchange [Nether Coins] for a variety of items and equipment in the Themed Shops, now located in most Cities across the World’s Map.]
[What are you waiting for? Adventure awaits! Will you protect the Realm of the Living from the Evil Demon King of Death? It’s only up to you now!]
The stream of messages ended with a big video, showing a gigantic skeleton in the depths of the Underworld, both of his eyes glowing with bright blue phantasmal flames, laughing evilly.
“The World of the Living… It shall be mine.”
And it ended as it all faded into black, showing the logo of Nexus Corporations, the company behind BNLO… The mysterious company I have yet to even begin tracking.
“Mark did you see that?” I asked, as Mark had just appeared at my side.
“Y-Yeah…” He was waving his hand and trying to move away all the notifications. “Is this really an update? Why would they do this? Is this to make the player base stronger? But wouldn’t this also strengthen the Demon King by expanding his territory?!”
“I-I have no idea.” I sighed. “But it seems to be something we can at least take some advantage of… Maybe.”
“Heeey! What’s up!” Rita came running to the throne, sitting over her giant spider familiar. “There’s a new update! Should we go kill some zombies?”
“I just saw it too.” Lily joined her as well. “I wonder if Jenny’s going to log-in today?” ．𝗻𝐞𝘁
“She’s probably busy working.” Mark said. “Can’t blame her. For now, we should-”
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
However, out of nowhere, several red notifications appeared around all of us, shocking us out of our calmness, the sound of the notification, which was a small dinging sound, became extremely loud as well.
DING!
[Warning! A [Underworld’s Gate] and two [Nether Portals] have spawned outside of your Territory!
[Undead of all Levels have begun appearing across your Territory.]
[Two Nether Portal Bosses have spawned, leading the armies.]
[The Underworld’s Gate Boss is beginning to send his Elite Troops outside of his Dungeon.]
[A horde of over one thousand Undead have quickly gathered, surrounding your entire Territory!]
“Wait, we’re being attacked already?!” Rita cried in surprise. “This is bad!”
“We have to hurry!” Lily panicked.
“Yeah, I guess there’s no helping it.” I sighed. “From one problem to the next. Well, at the very least we did rest quite a bit.”
“Wait, there’s something else…” Mark pointed at the System Notification with his huge wooden arm.
Ding!
[The Forest of Beginnings is in grave danger!]
[A New [Emergency Event Quest] has been generated: [Protect the Forest of Beginning and Yggdrasil!]
[The Demon King of Death, Thanatos, has not given up on his desire to relinquish Yggdrasil from the face of Arcadia, his loathing hate against her only growing larger with every single day that passes before his Resurrection!]
[On a fit of rage, he has sent three Undead Hordes towards the Forest of Beginnings, emerging from two Nether Portals and one Underworld Gate!]
[Defeat all the Undead invading the territory and protect the [Heart of Life] from being corrupted by the forces of Death!]
[Based in how many Undead you defeat; you will receive several rewards.]
[Quest Completion Rewards: [EXP] [Gold] [Event-only Items] [Nether Coins]
“A quest?!”
It felt way too convenient that all of this was happening one after another. I can’t tell if the System is trying to screw me over or helping me…
“Well… This is certainly convenient. I am sure everyone in the whole Territory got the same thing. Time to mobilize all the troops we’ve been building so far!”
At the same time as this happened, I suddenly got a report from my Watchtower, a mental input that reached my head telling me that there was a huge army of undead rushing in.
I can tell!
We moved outside the castle as fast as possible, not everyone was catching up on what was happening yet, some were confused and others weren’t paying attention.
After all, because they were “NPC” they couldn’t get Quests like Players, aside from the ones that already got Player Titles, or were highly sensitive to he Nether the Undead emanated.
“[Spiritual Stone Walls], activate [Spiritual Empowerment]! Use the accumulated Mana to reinforce your defenses and hold off the army from entering!”
I gave a command to my living Spiritual Stone Walls, as I immediately felt their Spiritual Aura erupting with great power.
FLAAAASH!
Good thing I built a wall…
