Real World

More than four days have passed since Du Ming entered the dungeon, and rumors are rife that he will die in the game.

However, the flow rate of the dungeon is different from that of the outside world, and no one has ever been to the undeveloped dungeon. The specific situation cannot be verified, so it is impossible to determine what stage Du Ming has reached, but few people believe that he will come back safely.

The Du family mansion.

On weekdays, everyone enters the dungeon one after another to improve themselves. Today, there are a few more people, and all the elders are here.

The head of the Du family sat in the seat of honor, and the others sat in order of seniority.

"How many days has Du Ming been in the game?" The elder glanced at the patriarch, but the question was directed to the subordinates around him.

"To reply to the Great Elder, it has been four days."

The Great Elder nodded, and said to himself, "Could he have died in the dungeon?"

Du Qi, the head of the Du family, said slowly, "This instance hasn't ended yet, it's a bit early to draw conclusions."

As soon as these words were spoken, the other elders exchanged glances and felt that Du Qi was really hypocritical.

Everyone knows that the three brothers of the Du family fought for the position of head of the family. The third young master Du Lin was kicked out of the family and now he has set up his own family.

The second young master of the Du family, Du Xu, Du Ming's father, inexplicably left his beloved son behind to enter the game and has not returned yet.

Du Qi then naturally became the head of the Du family.

After Du Ming was left in the Du family, he had been taken care of by the family. He was kicked out when he fell ill a few days ago. Now his life or death is unknown, but the family affection is overflowing again.

"Okay, let's wait until the results come out." After the elder said this, he stood up and left.

He is old, and can no longer compare with young people and cannot stay up late.

The other elders also said their goodbyes. Only after they had all left did Du Qi get up and return to his room.

His confidant followed him along the way, "Master, Du Xu hasn't shown up yet, what about Du Ming?"

"Continue to send people to monitor the game hall." Du Qi's voice was low and his emotions could not be heard.

"What if he hasn't passed the dungeon?"

"That's his fate."

"Yes, Patriarch."

A few days later, just as the rumor was spreading more and more widely, Du Ming came out, and the blue/light sign representing undeveloped area also turned green, causing a sensation in the entire game hall.

Many people looked at Du Ming as if they were watching a miracle.

Du Ming didn't care what others thought of him. As soon as he left the game, he felt sick and dizzy. He quickly opened the player space and took out the Hundred Pills and swallowed them.

As the pill entered my mouth, it dissolved instantly, the symptoms subsided immediately, and I felt much more comfortable.

After changing into new clothes and pants, Du Ming finally had the mood to think about the next step.

Everyone who has officially participated in the game and successfully passed it will automatically have a player space that can be opened in the game lobby.

Clearance points can also be used in the game lobby.

It should be noted that no matter whether the player is killed in reality or in a copy, everything he owns will be automatically assigned to the murderer by the game.

Because of this, when the game first appeared, there was chaos for a long time. It was not until several major families joined forces to suppress it that we have the current order.

Young Master Du was raised in the Du family before, and knew very little about those dark days. He had only heard one or two remarks, but that did not prevent Du Ming from taking the matter to heart.

The only place where one can feel at ease is the game hall.

In the game hall, no one is allowed to hurt others.

Du Ming cleared an undeveloped dungeon. Compared to some factions, the items he got were nothing. But for some players, they still had reason to be envious.

Besides, there is the Du family.

So he made a decision.

The next day, news spread throughout the city that Du Ming had set up a tent in the game hall. The moment the third elder of the Du family heard the news, he smashed his beloved purple clay teapot.

"How disgraceful!" the third elder said angrily, turning to look at the head of the family, obviously wanting him to make the decision.

"Alright, if he's capable of staying there, it's his business." The Second Elder casually said, then stood up and walked away, saying as he walked, "He was kicked out in the first place. If he wanted to be embarrassed, he would have done it long ago."

"Master! Look at what you are saying!" The third elder was dissatisfied.

"Okay." Du Qi lightly stopped the topic and talked about other things.

Although the third elder was a little angry, he would not disobey the patriarch's wishes, and the matter was resolved.

But others didn't pass so quickly.

Nowadays, all the large and small copies on the market are basically controlled by major forces, and the few scattered ones are also repeatedly brushed, and the points that can be obtained are very few.

A new copy means new opportunities, and many people want to get in touch with Du Ming to obtain first-hand information.

At one time, Du Ming received contact information from many people, but most of them came from small forces.

It was just a single-player copy, and the total profit was limited, which he understood.

Du Ming hadn't intended to sell it for a high price; after all, he had promised the NPCs. Since that was his word, he had to keep it, and finding a reliable seller was his original intention.

Um?

The Brave Legion?

He flipped through the contact numbers in his hand and accidentally came up with a number.

If I remembered correctly, this could be considered a medium-sized team. Logically, a medium-sized team would have the secrets to at least three or four large dungeons, dozens of medium-sized dungeons, and hundreds of small dungeons.

Why would you contact me?

Du Ming was puzzled, but this did not stop him from keeping the other party in mind.

After spending ten clearance points, he retrieved relevant information about the Brave Legion from the game lobby.

The Brave Legion was one of the earliest legions established. The reason why it did not develop into a large team was simply because the recruitment threshold was high and the credit value of the members needed to be called up.

Credit value is the game's comprehensive evaluation of the copy after completing it.

In the dungeon, attacking players or NPCs will cause credit loss.

People may be able to show kindness to others when it does not harm themselves, but they often cannot maintain their true intentions in situations of confrontation.

This requires strong support, so getting a high score is not only a matter of character, but also of strength.

The Brave Legion required a credit score of 80 or above, which eliminated a large number of people, so that it is still only a medium-sized team.

After learning this, Du Ming contacted the other party immediately.

The man who came to negotiate was a middle-aged man with a black frame. He was the type that would be hard to find in a crowd.

The other party rushed to the game hall as soon as he received the news, and did not hide it even though he knew Du Ming's situation.

"Hello, Young Master Du." The other party said friendlyly.

Du Ming: "You're welcome. Just call me Du Ming."

The other party understood: "Deputy Commander of the Divine Brave Corps—Hu Ying."

"Captain Hu, can I ask why you came to me?" Du Ming went straight to the point.

Hearing this, Hu Ying sighed and then told the whole story.

Originally, their team was a force that most other teams wouldn't mess with due to their inherent strength. However, due to the annual mandatory game mission, the Divine Legion unexpectedly ran into the Liu family, one of the aristocratic families.

The dungeon had no faction connection, and the two groups had different objectives, so they could enter without interfering with each other. I don't know what the Liu family had done to actively attack the members of the Divine Legion.

How can we justify not fighting back when one of our own members is beaten innocently?

The feud began after that incident.

"After the game was released, the Liu family joined forces with several other major families to attack the Legion, destroying more than a dozen of their dungeons, including a large one."

"Destroy the copy?" Du Ming was surprised.

Hu Ying sighed helplessly, "They used special props to destroy the core of the game, and the copy is gone just like that."

"No wonder..."

"Although we have been working on other dungeons recently, a month is too short, and the other forces don't want to offend the aristocratic families. Besides, they also need dungeons to improve their strength." Hu Ying looked at Du Ming, "So, after hearing that you were planning to sell dungeon materials, I immediately came to you."

Du Ming nodded in understanding.

"Hey..."

Without waiting for Hu Ying to speak, Du Ming said directly: "As long as the credibility of the Divine Brave Legion is genuine, I can sell the copy information to you."

The credit value is based on the game review and cannot be faked, so is it sold directly to them?

Before Hu Yingchao arrived, he was still thinking about how much it would cost to get the copy, but he didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

Afterwards, the two quickly finalized the matter.

After receiving his reward, Du Ming said goodbye to Hu Ying and turned around to buy things to improve himself.

As for Hu Ying, he also hurried back to report to the head of the group and arrange work.

Shi Shuang is an old man of the Divine Brave Corps. Because he was worried that the deputy commander would be ambushed by the Liu family, he always followed him around and only stood at a distance and watched during negotiations.

Seeing his deputy leader coming out, he hurriedly followed him and asked, "Deputy leader, what do you say?"

Hu Ying smiled and said, "Alright, go back and tell the team leader to arrange for the members to enter the game as soon as possible."

"Okay." Shi Shuang also put on a smile.

When Hu Ying returned to the heart of the Divine Legion and told the members what had happened, they were all very happy.

Then, one hour later, the first member successfully entered the copy.

A day later, the member came out of the dungeon in a daze. After coming to his senses, he ran towards the heart of the legion like crazy, laughing all the way.

“Wahahahahahahahaha——”

It caused passersby to look at it and say, “!”
