Three days before the outbreak of the killer crab frenzy, there are already signs of these monsters appearing in large numbers.
Recalling the peak of the event in the game: the screen was covered with killer crabs, the screen was lagging, and every player was having a great time farming them. If they died, they would simply return to town to revive, open a portal, and continue farming...
However, adventurers from another world cannot be resurrected!
As a monster that reproduces at an extremely fast rate, if this wave of monsters is not dealt with quickly, the surrounding areas will be occupied by the killer crabs.
One begets two, two begets four, and they multiplied and multiplied on this land...
With such a large monster population, rare boss-level monsters will emerge.
Even with city walls protecting White Dove City, it's not certain that it can hold out.
This wildfire must be extinguished at its source.
Linda gazed ahead at the 'Qingfeng River,' which was as turbid as the Yellow River.
There are three days left until the monster tide breaks out.
As long as the Adventurers' Guild and the City Hall jointly issue an order and organize the adventurers to work at full capacity, suppressing this monster tide will be a piece of cake.
However.
As night fell, Linda still hadn't seen any officials come to investigate.
He wondered if Lisa had failed to notify the Adventurers' Guild, or if something had gone wrong along the way.
The monster tide was no small matter, so Linda and her companions headed back to the Adventurers' Guild.
...
Two hours ago.
"A monster tide will break out on the Qingfeng River beach? Little sister, are you kidding me? It's been so many years since there's been a monster tide. Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
An adventurer's guild member with short brown hair laughed and waved at the anxious-looking Lisa.
"This morning, some adventurers from Qingfeng River Beach came back to turn in their quests, but I didn't hear them mention any monster tide."
"It's possible, it's very likely!"
Lisa was also a little guilty.
It is true that high-level killer crabs have appeared on the Qingfeng River beach, but to conclude that a monster tide has broken out based on this is indeed too arbitrary.
Any other adventurer would at most suspect that there was something unusual about the Breeze River Beach.
Linda is probably the only one who would dare to take a single bite that would definitely trigger a monster tide.
"Then you should send someone over to take a look."
Lisa said hesitantly, "It's strange that a low-risk area like Qingfeng River Beach has level 15 giant killer crabs! It'll kill many unsuspecting adventurers!"
"Okay, okay, I understand. I will ask my superiors and arrange for someone from the investigation department to check it out. The results should be available within thirty working days."
The man yawned lazily. "Anyway, I'll issue a notice first: there might be high-level killer crabs appearing on the Qingfeng River beach. Is that alright?"
"Thirty working days?" Lisa stared in disbelief. "How can that be? Why can't we send someone to check immediately? What if there really is a monster tide?"
"No matter what, we have to follow the procedures and rules. If there are signs of a monster tide outbreak, the Adventurers' Guild will quickly organize manpower to suppress it!"
The man tapped his pen impatiently. "Next."
"Oh, but thirty working days is too late..."
Lisa wanted to argue, but a burly, scarred adventurer behind her pushed his way through and said gruffly, "Monster Tide? You'd be better off believing I can drop epic gear than believing a monster tide will actually happen!"
The surrounding adventurers burst into laughter.
The last monster tide was several hundred years ago.
Back then, White Dove City was surrounded by ferocious monsters.
The adventurers have swept through it again and again, and now only weaklings remain.
The outbreak of a monster tide requires a leader-level monster to be in charge.
Nowadays, there are no monsters of that level in the wilderness of White Dove City!
Amidst the laughter and teasing of the crowd, Lisa hung her head and stepped out of the queue at the service window.
"I think I messed up," Lisa said dejectedly as she walked up to her two companions leaning against the door. "The union isn't willing to send anyone over."
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. We've done our best."
"We still need to take care of the captain's funeral arrangements, let's think about that first," Kodo patted Lisa on the shoulder, comforting her.
Lisa hesitated for a moment, then nodded and left the Adventurers' Guild.
In essence, she didn't really believe what Linda said.
I came here entirely because of Linda's life-saving grace.
The message has been conveyed to the Adventurers' Guild.
There was nothing she could do if they didn't believe her.
On the bright side, it should be processed within 30 working days, and tomorrow is also within 30 working days, so it shouldn't be delayed.
At this moment, no one in the union hall cared about the unusual situation at Qingfeng River Beach.
All their attention was drawn to the live strategy guide displayed on the lobby screen.
Inside was a deep, dark swamp, where a girl with short red hair was fighting a group of ugly half-snake people.
On screen, martial arts and magic intertwine, making every second so tense it's breathtaking.
