Chapter 50: Isn’t this update too fast? !
If someone touches the electric switch, the uncle will eat peppercorns.
Just as Luo Yan packed up the corpses and spoils and returned to the capital humming a little tune, the news of Morrag's defeat finally reached the Earth Dragon Clan's base camp.
When he heard that High Priest Morrag and several temple warriors had died in battle, the Earth Dragon Tribe's chief Sanu almost vomited blood.
After hearing that a thousand elite soldiers were killed, his nails pierced deeper into his flesh.
Looking at the clan leader with red eyes, the Earth Dragon sentinel who came to report did not dare to continue telling him that the evil demon king was also a necromancer.
Not only did the group of demons win the battle, they also took away the flesh and blood of the tribe's young men.
"You... go down first. I need to calm down for a while." Sanu panted and waved at the sentry.
The Earth Dragon sentry lowered his head and hurriedly left the Earth Dragon's meeting hall.
The door curtain is closed.
Almost at the same time as the footsteps disappeared, Sanu suddenly raised his head and opened his bloody mouth, venting all the anger in his chest in a roar.
“Ahhhh!!”
Hate! Hate so much!
This battle not only failed to wash away the shame of the Earth Dragon Clan, but also caused the death of more than a thousand elite members of the clan!
Especially the High Priest Moerrag and the Temple Warrior Zerik...
In this battle, not only did they lose most of their wealth, but they also destroyed the future potential of the Earth Dragon Clan!
After venting his anger, Sanu took a deep breath, trying to cool down the boiling dragon blood.
He now needs to think calmly about the future of the Earth Dragon Clan...
However, at this moment, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door again. The Earth Dragon sentry who had left earlier turned back again and knelt on one knee on the ground with a panicked look.
"Master Patriarch! The messenger from the Nightmare Land wants to see you!"
Nightmare town?
If I remember correctly...it seems to be the force on the second floor of the maze.
At the previous "Summit Meeting", he had met the leader of the Nightmare Land. That guy seemed to be a little devil... although he was of lowly blood.
But then again, why did that guy send an envoy here? At that meeting, they should have agreed on their respective "boundaries"...
Narrowing his amber eyes, Sanu looked at the sentry kneeling at the door and spoke in a low voice.
"Let that guy in."
"yes!"
The sentry took the order and turned around.
Not long after, a little devil with flapping wings flew in from outside.
These guys are like flying dwarves, but much noisier than dwarves. Not only that, they are thin, with arms like firewood, and have scaleless and ugly faces like humans.
Especially the smile on that guy's face, which made Sanu feel angry in his chest, and he unconsciously let out a gloomy and low growl like a beast from his throat.
However, Yusi, who was floating in the air, was unaware of it.
Especially when she saw the "depressed" and bitter face of the leader of this group of lizards, the smile on his face became even more sinister, and she was so happy that she couldn't help wanting to sing.
"Hehehe... What a scary face. Let me guess what happened? Could it be... that he was defeated? No way?"
really.
These demons who feed on negative emotions are always so disgusting.
If he hadn't really suffered a defeat and didn't want to offend the idiots on the second floor, he swore he would catch the shit out of this guy like catching a toad.
Sanu suppressed his anger and looked at the little devils flying around like flies.
"If you have something to say, please say it now. I'm busy and I don't have the mood to make trouble with you."
"Hey, you're still pretty tough, it looks like you haven't been hurt by the beating yet."
Yusi raised his eyebrows, a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he flew in front of the burly lizard, looking down at the face that was suppressing his anger.
"Hey, four-legged snake, our majesty asked you if you want to form an alliance. Would you like to consider it? Ah, of course... This is definitely not because we think that the demon king is too difficult to deal with, but purely because our majesty thinks you are too pitiful - ugh!"
Yusi had just said half of her words when a whistling fist hit her belly like a strong wind.
Her eyes were so wide open that they almost popped out of their sockets. She flew out like a piece of paper blown by a hair dryer and hit the wall covered with iron pipes hard.
Boom! The iron pipe caved inwards! Yusi struggled to get up and coughed up blood, his distorted expression half angry and half astonished.
"How dare you lay hands on me—"
Her pupils turned scarlet instantly, and she bit her lips tightly as she quickly recited the curse of hell.
However, the man standing opposite her was an adamantium-class melee mage after all, and she had just uttered two syllables when a scaly claw pressed down on her face, muffling the gibberish.
"Just because I show some courtesy to your leader doesn't mean I need to look you in the eye..."
Looking at the face that was almost turning purple, Sanu squeezed out a vicious word from between his teeth.
"As for you, you're just a mouse with wings... Do you understand? You're just a group of mice with wings."
He kept emphasizing the word "winged mouse" as if he had touched a sore spot.
Unable to breathe, Yousi's whole body was shaking. He desperately grasped the rock-hard claws with his hands but couldn't break free. His defiant eyes had been replaced by fear and pleading.
Under the horrific pressure of being on the verge of death, she finally couldn't help but leak it out.
Looking at this spineless guy, Sanu threw her to the ground with disgust and handed her over to the guard standing at the door.
"Take him away."
Alliance?
He would never have such a stupid dream.
The Earth Dragon Clan had long since escaped from the hypocritical hell and thrown themselves into the arms of the Dragon God. The cousin sent someone here just to disgust him and test his strength.
It goes without saying that the same messenger must have appeared on the Demon King's side.
If he ever showed his cowardly side, that guy would definitely stand on the side of the Demon King without hesitation.
This is hell! The law of the jungle, the strong are respected! Sanu's expression gradually became ferocious.
You're joining forces to bully me, right?
Wait!
He originally didn't want to invite outside forces to intervene in the internal affairs of the maze, but now it seems that he has no other choice! It's time to send an envoy to the southwest swamp!
After taking a look at the demon lying on the ground and twitching, the Earth Dragon Sentinel grabbed her neck and lifted her up from the ground like throwing away garbage.
"Yes, sir!"
…
【a.0.5 Update!
1. Add more optional species to the reincarnation pool: Zombie. (Initial attributes: 4/3/2/2/3) (Talent: Fright Aura, Corpse Eater) (Minimum Soul Level Requirement: Black Iron) (Reincarnation Cost: 1000 Contribution Points) (Initial Resurrection Cost: 100 Contribution Points) Lizardman Zombie. (Initial attributes: 4/4/2/1/3) (Talent: Scale Armor, Fright Aura, Corpse Eater) (Minimum Soul Level Requirement: Black Iron) (Reincarnation Cost: 1200 Contribution Points) (Initial Resurrection Cost: 120 Contribution Points.) 2. "Conscription" mechanism: Responding to the Demon King's conscription is the unshirkable obligation of the people of the Great Cemetery!
When the Demon King issues a conscription order, players will be automatically assigned to a specific regiment based on their selected race, identity number, and mobilization level.
For example, if Zhang San is the seventh skeleton soldier in the Great Cemetery, when the Demon King issues a conscription order, Zhang San will automatically be incorporated into the "First Skeleton Corps of the Great Cemetery" and go to the designated area to fight.
After completing the combat objectives, all players in the legion will receive huge amounts of ghost money and contribution income, and will have priority bidding rights at the loot auction!
3. "Spoils of War" mechanism: Equipment and supplies obtained from faction battles will be automatically marked as spoils of war, and will be auctioned first by the legion that seized the spoils. 70% of the proceeds from the auction will be distributed to all players in the legion according to their participation in the battle. Unsold equipment will be recycled by the NPC store at a specific price.
Equipment marked as spoils of war cannot be registered as personal property or traded before the ownership is disposed of. Violation of the trade or refusal to return will be punished by the Demon King! 4. "Warehouse" mechanism: Due to the addition of crypt spiders, the territory of the cemetery has been expanded. In order to protect the safety of players' personal property, the personal warehouse system is now open! The standard height is three meters, and the fee is charged by square meter. Each person can rent a maximum of 20 square meters of storage space! If you need a cabinet, please solve it yourself! Note: Equipment randomly piled in the Demon King's territory will be cleared as garbage. Please put your personal belongings in the designated location or outside the Demon King's territory!

The official website of "Disaster Online".
Less than 24 hours after the a04 version update, the a05 version update was refreshed on the official website forum.
Players are no longer surprised by the game's official incredible update speed.
So much so that even though the update announcement had been released for several minutes, the topic discussed in most of the posts was still centered around the "national war" that had taken place a few hours earlier.
Although the players did not directly participate in the battle with thousands of people on the same screen, and most of the time they just served as the background in the cutscenes, the immersive atmosphere and overwhelming sense of oppression still made many players who like this kind of game feel excited.
The draft mechanism updated in version a05 can be said to be within the expectations of most players.
Most of the posts complaining about the update also focus on a few details.
A gulp of chemical pool: "Wait?! The mechanism of whoever picks it up gets it has been cancelled?! Then the muskets I stockpiled will be... (horrified)"
Gou Shi: "Good fellow, it turns out that the person with more than a dozen guns on his back is you. (Funny)"
The old man at the entrance of the village: "Fuck, how did you take so many?!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Kebab: "Fuck, I was wondering why I couldn't get any, but you took so many! (Angry)"
Candied Haws: "I turned off the automatic pickup function! (Angry)"
Tonsils have something to say: "Just grabbing equipment and not joining the team, right? (Angry)"
He drank the chemical pool in one gulp: "Who can you blame for your slow hands? And I'm not the only one picking them up! (rolling eyes)"
Kebab: "@#%!"
Gou Shi: "I have to give a thumbs up to the development team. If they don't take care of it, it will be unplayable. (Funny)"
He swallowed the chemical pool in one gulp: "Damn! You guys are jealous!"
Xiao Wan was hungry: "Does anyone need a backpack? That... ratskin backpack, on sale. QAQ"
Can't afford to play: "It's a suspense. I see that the NPC store has put up hundreds of canvas bags, the same style as the Silver Pine Town militia... Those who have used it say it's good. (Smirk)"
Shark dropped something: "It's over, I'm going bankrupt. QAQ"
Whale Falls North and South: "TT"
Knowledge Explosion: "By the way, no one is paying attention to the two new convertible units added in A05? These attributes seem to be even better than the Crypt Spider!"
Failed eel: "Why would I care? There are only a few people in the whole server who have reached Iron!"
Failed dirty eel: "That's right! Those sneaky things are leveling up too fast!"
Yi Ye Zhi Qiu: "(sweat)"
Hu Wan: "Don't blame your bosses, they don't usually post, but they love to peek. (side eye)"
Failed eel: "(horrified)"
The failed dirty eel: "Brother! I was wrong! Don't deduct my salary! QAQ"
Gou Shi: “Hahahaha fuck.”
“…”
On the other side, in the Demon Lord’s territory deep in the Beifeng Mine.
After returning to his old nest, Luo Yan did not squat in front of the mirror and watch the show. Instead, he rode Arakdo directly to the construction site and began to fulfill the promise he made in the A05 version update.
Not only the players' warehouses, he also had to prepare for the expansion of the Demon King's facilities.
At this moment, thousands of underground spiders were shuttling back and forth in the mine tunnel, expanding the depth of the Demon King's territory horizontally while transporting the excavated earth out of the cave.
This thing is just like a tunnel boring machine!
No--
It should be said that it is more useful than a tunnel boring machine!
After all, the shield machine has a turning radius and a limited excavation size, but this thing is just like a robot cluster with drills. Not only can it change the excavation direction with a 360-degree panoramic view, but it can also give it a four-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.
"...This is what makes our Shadow Weaver clan so special, Lord Demon."
Seeing the Demon King in a good mood, Arakdo couldn't help but feel a bit proud in his voice.
"Ordinary burrow spiders can only dig one cave, and a depth of more than ten meters is the limit of their digging operations. However, we are different. We can move freely in the mountain as a group! Some spiders are responsible for digging, and some spiders are responsible for carrying... We can keep digging like this until the end of the world!"
"Good job, Arakdo! You don't have to dig to the end of the world, just dig through this mountain. To the north is the southwest corner of the Wanren Mountains. We need to dig out strategic depth in the direction of Shattered Rock Peak! Open up strategic space!"
Simply put, Luo Yan needs to open a back door for his Demon Lord.
After all, he had now provoked humans and had to prepare for the worst.
But Arakdo didn't know, he just smiled heroically.
"No problem! Leave it to our clan!"
As expected of His Majesty the Demon King! These words that he couldn't understand... It was obvious that they were some great plan!
At this time, Luo Yan saw some spiders and earthenware wrapped in spider webs being carried out from the front, and couldn't help but ask.
"What's up with these guys?"
The number of people started to decrease after only a short while of digging, which made him worry that there might be a landslide in the mine ahead.
However, Arakdo seemed to be used to it and laughed.
"Don't worry, Lord Demon. It's just a minor glitch. Their mouthparts were damaged during the excavation process. This happens from time to time. Madam Arachnos will send new excavators to ensure that the construction team is fully staffed."
I see.
Luo Yan nodded and asked.
"How do you usually deal with the broken ones?"
Alacdo: “Usually it’s used as food reserve.”
"……?"
All right.
By monster standards, this is indeed a more energy-efficient method... After all, with its mouthparts broken, it probably can't eat.
Luo Yan sighed in his heart, realizing that his understanding of hell was indeed not deep enough.
Compared to these real creatures of hell, I, a demon king who graduated from the Demon King Academy, am still too human.
I have to be a bad person in the future...
"My Lord Demon, the messenger from the Land of Nightmares has sent a messenger to you. Would you like to meet him?"
"Lock him up and torture him."
“Well—eh?!”
Luo Yan accidentally said what was in his heart. Realizing that he had said something wrong, he coughed and changed his words.
"Nothing... Let's meet first and let that guy wait for me downstairs."
Nightmare town?
The name sounds like a nightmare demon.
But would a high-level demon appear in such a place? He doubted it.
Seeing the Demon King returning to normal, Youyou breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what, declaring war without listening to what others say is too much. At least wait until someone speaks rudely before taking the opportunity to take him down, right? "Yes, sir!" - (Brothers, it's not that I don't want to add more chapters, it's just that I don't have any manuscripts saved TT. There are quite a lot of words today, quietly begging for a monthly ticket...) (End of this chapter)
