The First Player

[If all of humanity places its hope in one person, will civilization fare well?]

"When you read this, the life-and-death game to redeem the planet has already begun."

"All o...

Chapter 296 "The Arte is my ship"

"So far, we haven't received any news about players possessing the soul clan. The players seem to be mostly local residents or travelers from the outside world. I heard that there are about a few hundred people who were born on a huge ship called "At" at the beginning of the game, and they are still on their way..."

Lu Shu listened to her words and looked at the scenery beside the boat.

The weather in Praia was a bit hot, and the air was hot and humid, and seemed to carry a lingering smell of blood from the night.

Clean buildings slowly passed by his eyes, and along the horizon with white clouds floating on it, he could see the endless blue sea in the distance. People of all kinds shuttled between the ports, and freight carts passed by his sight.

The waves washed away the blood that accidentally splashed on some buildings. Some shriveled corpses were hastily dragged away by people. After wiping off the blood, the buildings still looked like they were newly built, as if they had been washed by sea water and nothing had happened.

…What a wonderful city.

"We are currently in the West City of Praia. Noel just replied to the message. He said he was in the East City and met Mo Wen..."

As Lin Yin was talking, she suddenly turned around and asked, "Why are you distracted? What are you thinking about?"

Lu Shu rolled up the map in his hand.

"There is still no news about Su Mingan..."

"Don't worry about him." Lin Yin laughed. "Even if something happens to our team, nothing will happen to him. There's still no news from him. I guess he's too busy to reply. After all, the chat channel has just been unblocked."

"Um."

Lu Shu nodded.

In the lower left of his vision, the chat channel in the newly unlocked dungeon had exploded. Players who had just experienced a hellish night began to complain about this city that seemed like the living world.

[Abner (World Tree Guild):? Can someone tell me why! Why are these killer things so strong at night! My teammates, my teammates were all wiped out! ]

[Chad (Santa Marta Guild) I seem to have arrived at a legendary vampire city...]

[Li Hao (Lakeside Cottage): Recruiting temporary teammates, those with exploration skills are welcome. There are two elemental combat types here, and an extermination mission has been received. Experience after completing the mission can be shared.]

[Xize (Yixiu Adventure Group): Soul Hunter Team 3 is recruiting! We are looking for players who can understand human language! There are too many NPCs in Team 3 to command, so we need a few players with a combat power of 300+, who will not slack off and will get through the night! ]

[Qian Ning (Mo Ke Organization): Damn, a big guy has become the captain of the third team? It’s only the second day of the dungeon opening, and I can’t even find the soul hunter registration point...]

[Ke La (United Group): It should be related to the hunting points. The boss may have hunted a very strong soul clan on the first night. The accumulated points can allow him to exchange for a high position in soul hunting. ]

[Yan Zi (unaffiliated): So, is there anyone who has joined the Soul Clan? I see that the Soul Clan kills anyone they see at night, and it's impossible to talk to them.]

[Aida Maki (Sakura Tree Guild): You can pin them down and ask them questions, but normal questioning probably won’t work.]

【……】

So far, players are adapting well to the situation.

Perhaps it is because there is no harm without comparison. Compared with the sixth world which is the underworld all the time, the seventh world is only the underworld at night, which is acceptable to the players.

They even turned the channel chat into the world chat in the game, and began to form teams using game terms. Since the players' camps were basically soul hunters, many people could even form temporary teams. As long as they didn't tear each other apart, the players were still happy to cooperate with each other hypocritically.

Lu Shu was watching these conversations when he suddenly heard a "ding dong" sound.

This is a chat prompt for the team channel.

He quickly clicked on the channel.

The chat channel was opened at 6am, and there were several messages they had just sent. The name was followed by the specific time when the message was sent.

【Lü Shu (6:01): The team channel is now open.】

【Lin Yin (6:01): Lu Shu and I are still together. What about the others? Those who are still together will receive a 1.】

【Mo Wen (6:01): 1】

[Noel (6:02): Still alive, don't worry, ordinary soul tribes are no threat to us. Mo Wen and I are now signing up for the soul hunting camp in East City. We will act separately for the time being and gather again when we need to form a team at night.]

【Lü Shu (6:05): Received.】

【Lü Shu (6:08): Where is Su Mingan? 】

[Noel (6:08): By the way, where is Su Mingan? ]

That’s all the news.

By the time the new message came, more than an hour had passed.

This sudden "ding dong" sound instantly attracted the attention of four people.

There is a certain loading time when sending messages, which means some things cannot be delivered immediately. While waiting for the message to load, the four of them were looking forward to it.

【(The message is loading……)】

【(Loading completed.)】

【Su Mingan (7:46): I’m here. 】

"Finally a reply." Lin Yin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the sender of the message: "This reply is really late. What big thing is he doing?"

Lu Shu didn't say anything. He looked at the message and typed immediately.

[Lü Shu: Where are you? Are you safe? ]

“Ding Dong!”

After a moment, a new message appeared:

[Su Mingan: I am on the Arte. ]

[Noel: Art? I saw someone in the chat channel saying that there are souls wreaking havoc on that ship. Are you okay?]
