After the explanation from the Heavenly Dao, Liu Xingyao quickly understood what had happened and returned to Blue Star to issue an announcement without saying a word.
"The closed beta of 'Tiandao Zhong' will be updated to version 1.1 in ten minutes."
"The game 'Tiandao Zhong' is about to be updated, and new content will be launched soon. This update will be a non-disruptive update."
The known updates are:
"The forging-related NPC, the Holy Sword Forger [Luke], has been removed. This forger, whose ultimate dream was to forge a holy sword, came to Tiandao Village, but left in anger because the players did not respect him."
"PS: As for whether I can come back, I'll have to plead with them. Didn't I say yesterday? You all need to respect the NPCs! Are you all idiots?! Sense of immersion! Do you understand?!"
Liu Xingyao's easy-to-understand announcement once again caused a sensation.
The casual gamers were in an uproar.
Detective Pikachu: Hahaha, the fastest version update speed ever! Amazing! It appears and disappears in a flash!
"Flying Hu Jianren: Even NPCs can get so angry they run away??? I strongly suggest I take their place, I can do it! Let me do it!"
A bunch of armchair gamers, making sarcastic remarks, were eating lemons and singing songs, just like celebrating the New Year.
They didn't have any games to play to begin with, and seeing the beta testers get their comeuppance made them incredibly happy.
A few hours later, Wang Ergouzi, a beta tester, also posted a new strategy guide.
"Hello everyone, it's me again, Wang Ergouzi!"
"Today is the second day of the closed beta test. I didn't expect the newly introduced NPC to be so arrogant. I actually got angry and ran away! Here's the live report!"

"Judging from this incident, we need to be more cautious in our attitude towards NPCs from now on. I wonder if the official team will still refresh the blacksmith. [Tears turned into laughter]"
"Our exploration today yielded new results. We discovered a new monster: a giant rabbit that's half a person's height. This giant rabbit can kick a person's leg into a U-shape with one kick. During the operation to hunt down the rabbit, several guys got their legs kicked into U-shapes, it was a terrible sight. Some of the crippled guys could only commit suicide by crashing into trees to revive [tragic]. But in the end, these rabbits turned into experience points for us. We call this kind of giant rabbit the Ghost Foot Rabbit. The Ghost Foot Rabbit gives more experience and rewards, and it also has a lot of meat."

"By the way, we also tried roasted rabbit today! The veteran with wilderness survival experience made a fire by rubbing sticks together and let us have a roasted rabbit feast. It was so damn delicious! My taste buds were on fire, I almost ate my tongue! Rabbits are so cute! How could I not eat rabbit, given my half-person-tall stature! I'm going to go back and read more books on wilderness survival. It truly lives up to its 100% virtual reality level!"

Alright, that's all for today. See you next time!
There were even more comments today, mainly because the act of eating rabbits attracted the attention of many foodies.
"DNF pro: Is this really how it looks with all taste buds maxed out?! I'm already jealous!"
"Aloe vera is also a fruit: That's great! I can enjoy delicious food while playing games, and I don't even have to lose weight. I'm begging for the public beta!"
It has to be said that thanks to the promotion by game streamer Wang Ergouzi, many people who weren't particularly interested in games have turned their attention to this game.
Most of them are foodies.
As the game's popularity grew, Liu Xingyao became quite proud.
When we recruit the next batch of people, we can consider hiring more.
On the morning of the third day of the closed beta, players entered the game early again.
Just like Wang Ergouzi said before, after these players have eaten such delicacies as Tiandaozhong, they don't care much about other games or anything else.
I grind games every single day!
Its body is covered in livers!
Wang Ergouzi went online early in the morning. He put his front paws on the ground, stuck his butt out, and did a standard dog stretch, which is how dogs stretch when they are tired.
It has to be said that Wang Ergouzi is getting more and more used to his identity as a dog.
"Hey! Dog! Hurry to the altar! That blacksmith NPC has spawned again!"
The person talking to Wang Ergouzi was his real-life friend, a small business owner who runs a pet shop and spends a lot of time playing games.
This guy created a bald human with thick eyebrows. Anyone familiar with anime will immediately recognize that this guy was modeled after Saitama.
In the game, this guy's name is Justice Executioner. Judging from the name, he's a rather chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur).
Upon hearing this, Wang Ergouzi immediately put all four legs to work and started running, while the righteous enforcer couldn't catch up even with two legs.
This time, the players were smarter and just watched the Holy Sword Forger, Lord Luke, from a distance, afraid that he would run away again.
The official website's planners even issued an announcement; this was something they worked hard to get back!
Luke walked to the thatched hut closest to the Heavenly Altar and tapped on the wooden wall of the hut.
"Come here, a few people, and tidy up the house for me."
A mission!
Clearly, this is a task!
The players reflexively took a step forward, then retreated as if traumatized.
"You're the ones I'll choose. Come here."
Luke frowned and casually pointed to a few players closest to him.
The players walked into the thatched hut with smiles on their faces, and quickly cleaned it up, removing all the trash inside.
This is all trash that players brought with them when they logged off.
It looks like this room will become Luke's private room.
Luke looked at the tidied-up thatched hut, nodded reluctantly, and went inside.
The players had originally intended to shamelessly follow them inside, but the door to the thatched hut slammed shut with a bang.
It almost smashed the noses of those players.
After Luke entered the thatched hut, a nameplate quickly appeared above the door.
Luke's Forge
Some daring players tried to open the door, only to find that the door to the thatched hut was locked.
"Hey!!! Where are our mission rewards?!"
The players who went in to clean the room just now discovered that there were no quest rewards or quest notifications!
What a loss!
However, after a short while, the door to the thatched hut opened again.
Luke also came out of the room and, as if by magic, pulled out a long stone workbench from the ring on his hand.
Luke placed the workbench on the ground with one hand, boom!
The impact shook the entire ground.
This shows the weight of the stone workbench.
The players were stunned by Luke's incredible strength!
Is this NPC really that powerful?!
This guy is awesome!
"Is strengthening your physical body your favorite thing?" Liu Xingyao teased the Heavenly Dao.
Tiandao shrugged, offering no reply.
I can't be bothered with you.
