Chapter 343: Chapter 345: NPCs Surprisingly Do Such a Thing to Players, Players Exclaim Unbearably (10,000 Character Mega Chapter)
“Coming right up, Level 3 Warrior apprenticeship includes job change. Free multiple training sessions if not passed. Only 200 RMB, supports offline transfer.”
“Guys, looking for a party of ten, only need a thief and a priest. We’re starting soon, let’s crush Kobolds! There is a Level 4 beta expert leading!!”
“Looking for a group. I’m already Level 2 and have successfully changed professions. Anyone headed to Pig Lang Forest to hunt wild boars?”
“Buying Gold Pucks, highest exchange rate! 25,000 RMB per puck!! Possible to deal offline, price increase for bulk amounts!!”
“Looking for a sugar daddy, all the big brothers~ Anyone want to take me leveling?~ ying ying ying”
“Get lost, you’re so ugly and still ying ying ying, even the street sweeper on Jasmine Street has fairer skin than yours…”
In front of the adventurer’s guild in Green City, hundreds of players noisily shouted forming parties, their voices echoing down the length of the street.
The scene, though utterly bizarre, had become routine for the passing locals.
Ever since those damn, vulgar, despicable adventurers from the Lost Plane appeared over a month ago, all the locals felt their lives had changed.
Before, they were naive, never knowing that sneaking a peek at a nobles’ lady bathing, a crime that could lead to hanging, was something to brag about, with crowds forming teams to go and watch.
Before, they didn’t know that “great sword” didn’t refer to the large sword held by a warrior, but to calling for nightingales on Jasmine Street.
Before, they didn’t know that stealing, robbing, angering guards, provoking nobles—these damn crimes could be done so openly and proudly.
Before, they didn’t know that “freeload” wasn’t just about not paying on Jasmine Street, but about not paying anywhere.
Before, they didn’t know that “this baby” could be someone who, standing at 1.9 meters and wielding a huge sword, referred to themselves as a mighty warrior.
And many, many more…
For heaven’s sake, had these damn adventurers had their brains eaten by demons?
Why would the Lost Plane produce such neurotic lives? Were their ruling deities chaotic and evil Abyss Demons?
Moreover, it infuriated the residents that some adventurers preached against worshipping deities, claiming deities were but oppressors and evil rulers who enslaved them,
asserting a firm belief that there were no deities in this world, and that gods were just beings stronger than them.
With conviction, anyone could become a god; everyone could be a god; everyone was a god.
Madness!!
When most of the residents heard this, they thought these adventurers from the Lost Plane were mad—or perhaps they were just devils sent to spread heretical beliefs.
These damn evil heretics!
To dare to deny the great deities and even seeking to supplant them!!!
This was utterly unforgivable!!
When atheism spread amongst the original residents of Green City, looking at the noisy players on the streets again, their eyes immediately filled with disgust and disdain.
These thieves, robbers, blasphemers!
These damn heretics should be hanged at the church doors!
Let their bodies warn everyone: those who lean towards evil will indeed face divine punishment.
With time, as players’ range of activities expanded and their unrestrained behavior intensified, this sentiment grew even stronger.
It wasn’t just in Green City; in every city across Glory Main Plane with adventurers present, there emerged a deep-seated dislike for players.
An indescribable atmosphere brewed among the original inhabitants.
Especially the temple’s priests and bishops, they had repeatedly heard those damnable Lost Plane adventurers publicly disrespect their deities, disdain their beliefs, and even mock everything about them.
Heretics!! All those who blasphemed against the deities deserved to die!!
The players grew more familiar with this world and became even more unrestrained, further intensifying the brewing atmosphere.
All players were unaware that a terrifying storm was brewing.
The incident that started it all was in the Royal Capital of a Human Empire in Central Continent, where a player, in a bid to show off, climbed onto a statue of the Life Goddess in the city center in front of priests and believers, trampling the goddess’s head while taking photos.
The status of the Life Goddess was immensely noble and exalted; followers of any sect, even those of evil deities, were required to show enough respect to such a powerful and majestic being.
But now, someone dared to trample on the glory of the goddess.
Once the Life Goddess temple reported this incident to other Life Goddess temples, the news spread like a storm across all of Glory.
Rage erupted.
The Life Goddess, revered by all as the great mother goddess, had been shamelessly blasphemed by those damn bastards!
The natives, who had been harassed by players for some time, plunged into a fury.
The consequence of this anger was—massacre.
Furious believers and natives took to the streets, killing every player they encountered.
Even the city’s guards participated in the process.
Knights and priests from various sects, along with professionals from various guilds, launched an unprecedented attack on players.
The players, not yet grown, had no ability to fight back against the powerful natives.
Foolhardy players tasted the bitter fruit of non-compliance with rules for the first time.
And it wasn’t just about killing the players—believers and professionals even guarded inside the temple of the Life Goddess, blocking the resurrection point to kill newly resurrected players.
The natives’ long-suppressed rage was unleashed in the most insane manner this day.
These bizarre blasphemers received the severest of punishments.
At first, some players wanted to resist, but the gap in strength was too great, they were utterly trashed.
The usually neutral temple of the Life Goddess remained silent due to the goddess being defiled, allowing believers from other sects to enter the temple and kill those blasphemous adventurers.
This mass player killing incident, which lasted a whole week, was dubbed by players as the Blasphemy Disaster.
Glory’s ruthless beatdown taught everyone the importance of following the rules.
The most unfortunate players dropped from level 4 straight down to level 1, and even worse, some large guilds disintegrated overnight.
The losses were so heavy they brought tears.
After this incident, players went completely insane.
On the official “Glory” website forum, angry players posted thousands of posts every second, with 50% ranting about the crap game ruining their youth, demanding refunds!
The other 50% were cursing the lousy game designers, demanding compensation for the incident, or else they would collectively quit the game, especially the heavily invested guilds, which were furious.
“Come together, brothers unwilling to be exploited by the “Glory” operators, it’s time to show those idiots the greatness of players!”
“Waa waa waa, I died three times in one day, there’s a creepy uncle guarding my resurrection point, he knocks me out with a hoe every time I appear.”
“Firmly oppose the toxic game harming young people!!”
“Damned game designers, today you and I are irreconcilable.”
Among them, one post, receiving a million replies, went explosively viral.
“Starting with me, let’s quit playing!!!”
Those damned “Glory” operators, intentionally tampering with the game code, depriving players of the right to survive, maliciously harvesting the wealth players invested in the game, causing severe losses to everyone.
I have already found a lawyer preparing to sue this unscrupulous crap game; we must get an answer from “Glory”!!
How can NPCs recklessly kill players!? I’m reporting you; you’re conducting a massacre, engaging in race discrimination!!!
If the “Glory” official website does not give us a restoration, all of us will permanently stop playing this game!
The replies below were particularly brilliant.
First floor: WTF, now race discrimination? So typical of the beautiful country.
Second floor: mmp, I almost laughed to death reading these posts, playing for so many years, it’s your first time being played by NPCs, right?? haha, luckily I didn’t get a game pod, feeling joyful, waa waa waa.
Third floor: In ancient times, there was a mythical creature called a loli, known to make waa sounds, met with boxing, and cried a lot!
Fourth floor: Strongly support the OP’s action, it wasn’t easy to earn a few copper pucks, I just called a little sister to discuss life and philosophy, just got my long johns half off, and a long knife-wielding NPC came in,
damn it, do you know the feeling of being castrated? I once urinated three feet against the wind, now I pee my shoes every day… damn “Glory”, compensate me for my emotional distress, compensate my little sister!!!
Fifth floor: As a beta player who had finally reached level 4, damn, I died four times, got killed every time I logged in, and already dropped back to level 2, if Glory doesn’t give us an explanation, I’m going back to smash my game pod!
Sixth floor: ….
…
Most players were tearfully accusing “Glory” of being a scam, demanding explanations and compensation, or else threatening to quit.
The momentum was fierce, with millions already joining the boycott, arguably the most dramatic scene of the year.
“The sudden mutation in ‘Glory’ impacted everyone differently. New players were alright; if they died, they just had to wait 8 hours to resurrect, but the veteran players really felt the push.
It was frustrating to see the advantage they had painstakingly accumulated slip away like that.
It was infuriating.
And many more ‘innocent’ players were extremely annoyed.
I mean, I’m just playing a game, right? Is it really such a big deal if I pee at your church’s doorway, steal some stuff, or peek at nobles bathing? Why are you targeting me? Don’t you know I’m innocent?”
Why, huh?! Hmph! This kind of trash game should be boycotted!!
Besides ranting, one brilliant analysis post was especially popular.
“Shocking Reasons Behind the Player Massacre by NPCs”
As an alpha tester and an old player, I have experienced the recent NPC massacres. There are various speculations about the cause, but I think none of those are the issue. The biggest problem is—this world is too realistic.
You might wonder, what does this have to do with the NPCs killing players?
A lot, actually, and I mean it.
The entire reason for this incident is that ‘Glory’ is a highly realistic world. I suspect its AI is of the most advanced military standard. Everyone knows military technology is generally about 10 years ahead of civilian technology, so it’s likely that ‘Glory’ was developed by officials to test out new AI technology.
Of course, that’s just my hypothesis; take it with a grain of salt.
Now to the main point.
Why do I say this? Because a real world has its own cultural heritage, customs, and taboos. Take Huaxia for example—with our respect for the old and young, our hardworking and simple nature, our patriotism—these are great traditions.
But what roles do we play? Adventurers from the Lost Plane, an identity officially assigned by the developers.
We are foreigners, completely out of sync with the entire society of ‘Glory’, and most players act without any restraints, easily offending NPC’s cultural customs and trampling on their dignity.
Most people don’t even realize that some of their actions, which seem normal, are actually provocations to everyone.
For example, denying their gods. ‘Glory’ is a world that really has deities, and if you show up saying their god is fake, it’s no wonder if they regard you as a heretic and literally hang you alive.
There are even those who rob in the streets, steal, and randomly kill NPCs…
And there are many more such examples.
Think about it from another perspective—if aliens came to Huaxia, caused trouble, knocked down our Confucius statues, and danced on our ancestors’ graves, wouldn’t you want to beat the crap out of them?
So, this NPC massacre of players is simply a strong counterstrike by NPCs against players who have disturbed their lives, aiming to make everyone understand that you must adhere to their rules in ‘Glory.’
Otherwise, backlash is inevitable.
After this incident, everyone should maintain a certain vigilance and respect toward the traditional culture of ‘Glory’ and its NPCs. Those suicidal actions should be minimized,
otherwise, we might face a second NPC retaliation.

The post was logical and persuasive, and quickly gained a lot of approval.
First floor: Dude, analyzing so much, you look kinda cool when you’re serious, i like it, got a boyfriend? And hey, don’t be too strict about the gender thing, I’m 18, can you handle that?
Second floor: Brother, when you say 18…is that age, or length…?
Third floor: I actually read and understood this whole thing. I really am as smart as I think.
Fourth floor: Too many words, don’t want to read, class rep summarize for me.
Fifth floor: @Fourth floor, in one sentence: Love to play, don’t love it, get lost.
Sixth floor: …
…
The NPC massacre event in ‘Glory’ lasted a full week, and during that week, everyone was furiously cursing.
Initially, everyone was trashing the game developers, calling them garbage. Later, some people began reflecting that what the players did wasn’t right, and started trashing their fellow players.
The forum quickly split into several camps: one side furiously trashed the game for daring to let NPCs slaughter players, unforgivable sins, and they even crazily increased the bounty in a previous post, vowing to find the address of ‘Glory”s game company.
For this, they were already preparing over a thousand burlap sacks at the market, to distribute as lottery prizes when they find the address, and then go have a life and dreams chat with the game developers.
Another camp felt that the retaliation by the game’s realistic NPCs was justified and proposed setting up a player ethics committee to correct misconduct in the game and foster a harmonious gaming environment, preventing further NPC massacres.
And another camp was preparing a retaliation plan, calling for players to unite and overthrow the oppressive NPCs of ‘Glory’, to bring justice and light to the world, allowing players to breathe freely without oppression by NPCs, without discrimination based on their birth, their skin color, or their language.”
They wanted to stand up, to establish a world governed by players themselves, where they’d have human rights within “Glory,” free from discrimination!!
Then, with the division among players, all sorts of strange organizations were formed on the forums – The Player Freedom Committee, the Player Rights Protection Association, the Alliance for the Liberation of NPCs and Overthrow of Feudalism, Atheism Promoters Association…
Some players, carrying justice in their hearts, aimed to establish a fair and free world and to overthrow the corrupt feudal rule of “Glory.”
Some players, harboring fantasies of having harems, aimed to maintain the feudal rule, vowing to become great nobles and buy hundreds of Elves for uninhibited revelries.
Some players loved chaos and evil, determined to join the Evil Camp and aspired to become super evil bosses with a bounty of 10 million Gold Pucks.
But no matter how much the players protested, even calling for strikes or exiting the game pods, “Glory’s” official website acted as if nothing happened. They didn’t even bother to respond, let alone delete the posts that criticized them.
It was as if the issue didn’t exist at all.
Their attitude was very clear.
Play if you like, leave if you don’t.
The NPC massacre of players went on for a full week, and only after a week did the NPCs blocking the resurrection points leave, allowing players to finally emerge from the temple of the Life Goddess.
Being blocked from resurrection points by NPCs for a week, one could imagine how frustrated these fearlessly audacious folks had become.
After a round of ruthless beatings, the previously unrestrained players who acted without any concerns finally learned to behave more discreetly.
At the very least, they dared not publicly discuss whom they had robbed under the cover of darkness the previous night, or which noble’s house they had snuck into to watch someone bathing.
The improper conduct was forcefully eradicated.
Later, the players even gave a pleasant name to this incident—The Blasphemy Calamity.
It was from this time that players truly began to integrate into Glory, to appreciate the rich culture and heritage of this world, and to start their adventure journey.

Hun Yuan Thunderclap Hand, Cheng Kun, one of the three managers of Dark Contract’s Earth branch and the administrator for the Immortal Soul under Dark Contract within “Glory,” was standing inside a loft in the west district of Green City, looking anxiously at the street where players were slowly reappearing.
“Big brother, this time was too terrifying, wasn’t it? Those NPCs were like crazy, attacking players on sight,” Hun Yuan heard this and turned to look at Thunderclap Hand, shaking his head.
” You know nothing. Do these NPCs look like NPCs to you? These natives of Glory are much smarter than the players. Those foolish enough to act recklessly will inevitably face backlash.
They even dared to propagate atheism at the doorstep of temples, it’s a miracle those fools aren’t dead yet.”
Cheng Kun chuckled, “Luckily, we have the protection of the Dark Contract, those guys don’t dare to come in, otherwise, this week would have been wasted.”
“How many of our people who were out on missions got killed?”
“A total of 17, I’ve already given them long vacations, we’ll have them return once the situation stabilizes.”
“Okay, call everyone back, it’s time for our Immortal Soul to get back to real business,” Hun Yuan’s eyes sparkled with a hint of sharpness, “Chairman Stanley has instructed us to assist Prince Anos in building the city fully, this is a great opportunity.
According to Chairman Stanley’s plans, we as players will play an extremely important role in this newly established city.
Seizing this opportunity could give us a significant edge.”
His tone was full of conviction and longing; he seemed to see the day the Dark Contract Club would grow strong.
Thunderclap Hand nodded, the face with acne slightly excited, “We’ve already recruited over a hundred people, are we still recruiting professional players on Earth?”
After speaking, he seemed somewhat reflective, “The boss of Crimson Moon really has a lot of money, throwing millions over casually,
and their network of connections is much stronger than ours. Without Crimson Moon’s help during this time, we might still be marking time.”
Hun Yuan shook his head, “No, let’s not rush; let’s first train these hundred players into core members, so it’ll be easier to lead when we recruit new ones next time.
Additionally, according to Chairman Stanley’s thoughts, go post on the forums, revealing the identity of Prince Anos and his plans to build a city near the Dwarf Hills border. I believe many guilds will find this interesting.”
Hearing Hun Yuan’s words, Thunderclap Hand and Cheng Kun exchanged a glance and chuckled.
“We’ve already prepared for this.”
Just as the three of them were enjoying watching the players carefully moving along the street from the loft, a guard’s words interrupted their conversation.
“Lord Hun Yuan, Chairman Stanley requests your presence…”
Hearing the name Stanley, the three foolish players suddenly stopped their discussion, their expressions turning a bit odd.
Even as the brains of the group, Hun Yuan was feeling intimidated now.
The more he interacted with that NPC, the more he understood the terror of the opponent.
It seemed as if everything about him was under the other’s control, with no escape and no avoidance possible.
Moreover, the options Stanley always provided were invariably to his favor, making it almost impossible to refuse due to the great temptation.
This, therefore, exerted an even greater pressure on him, for crossing swords with such an entity might end with him being sold out and yet helping the opponent count the money.
“Let’s go, be careful with your words in front of Chairman Stanley.”
Upon hearing Hun Yuan’s words, Thunderclap Hand curled his lips, “I’d actually like to be careless, but I can’t even get a word in; every time, that NPC only talks to you and ignores the two of us.”
Cheng Kun nodded in complete agreement.
Hun Yuan shot them both a look, “If you two had a bit of brains, it wouldn’t always be just me dealing with him alone.”
The two responded to his comment by simultaneously raising a middle finger in greeting.
Laughing and joking, the three players arrived at the main hall of Black Rose Manor, where Stanley was currently residing.
Inside the spacious and luxurious hall, familiarly situated before a long table, Stanley sat calmly at the head.
At that moment, the 16 Level Crimson Hunter had red wine set upon the table, the liquid in the stemmed glasses looking like fresh blood, mysterious and elegant.
Behind him hung a war painting with a crimson background, and even during the daytime, the lighting inside the room was somewhat dim.
Every time they entered this room, the three players felt a tremendous pressure, not only from the surroundings but more so because of the mysterious NPC in front of them, which truly made their hearts tremble.
“Chairman Stanley.”
The three greeted him in unison.
Stanley looked at the three slightly fearful fellows before him, his eyes revealing a hint of deep meaning.
“There’s no need to be afraid, young Undead.
You have lives that can be restarted, and you will never die; this is your greatest advantage and should be your pride.”
I… can I really be proud in your presence? Hun Yuan looked at Stanley, who was slightly smiling at them, and found the situation awkward.
The opponent’s wise gaze was like stripping him naked and throwing him on the street, with no cover at all, leaving no room for any cunning thoughts.
Quickly changing the subject,
“Chairman Stanley, may I ask what task you need us to undertake this time?”
Stanley gave a slight smile, “Have you heard about the disturbances the residents of Green City have been causing against adventurers lately?”
Hun Yuan nodded, “All protected by the Dark Contract, our Immortal Souls have remained unharmed.”
Stanley shook his head, “No, Hun Yuan, there’s no such thing as protection; Immortal Souls is a part of our Dark Contract.
Your perception needs correcting…”
Hun Yuan felt a chill in his heart and immediately responded. “Yes, Chairman Stanley, we are part of the Dark Contract.”
“That’s fine, there’s no need for such formalities with me. I know you still have grievances about the Dark Contract deep down, after all, you are undying adventurers who need not depend on us.”
Stanley’s tone was very calm, as if conversing with an old friend, but the content of the conversation sent shivers down Hun Yuan’s spine.
“Chairman Stanley, we haven’t…”
Stanley waved his hand, “No, Hun Yuan, I don’t care what you think inside because time will provide you with the answer.
The truth will prove that you are ultimately members of the Dark Contract, and only here can you attain what you desire.”
“Now, how is the construction of the Dark Contract division in the Lost Plane progressing?”
Hearing this, the already uneasy Hun Yuan suddenly felt a complex stirring within him.
The Earth’s Dark Contract division… ultimately it was under the control of this NPC.
I, a player, ultimately succumbed to the harshness of life and became an NPC’s lackey, colonizing Earth for him and even relishing it.
Am I a bit too pathetic?
“Chairman Stanley, everything is progressing smoothly; we have already established collaborations with many forces in the Lost Plane and have recruited 113 adventurers to serve us.”
Stanley, upon hearing this number, nodded in satisfaction.
“Hun Yuan, good, you did not deceive me.”
Hissss~
Hun Yuan felt a chill down his spine upon hearing this. Did not deceive me??
The implications of this statement were vast; simply put, it meant that this NPC had already gained the capability to investigate his influence on Earth.
This NPC was becoming more and more demon-like.
Stanley, seeing the expression on Hun Yuan’s face, knew that he understood the message and did not continue this topic.
“You mentioned last time that in the Lost Plane, there is no such thing as a Loyalty Contract, and most adventurers rely on Gold Pucks or ordinary hiring contracts to recruit others?”
“Yes, Chairman,” Hun Yuan replied, slightly stunned, not understanding the other’s intention.
“Hmm, you can have all the adventurers sign Loyalty Contracts with me, which will ensure our interests in the Main Plane of Glory.
Even if the adventurers betray your contract in the Lost Plane, they would not dare to betray in ‘Glory’; otherwise, all their earnings would be nullified.”
Upon hearing this, Stanley’s face stiffened; the players he recruited were not only involved in the Dark Contract. He had originally planned to have multiple hideouts and did not want to be completely tied to the Dark Contract, but now…
But to refuse… Thinking of Stanley’s words just now, he could only swallow the bitter pill.
“Yes, Chairman Stanley.”
After slightly manipulating the clever adventurer, Stanley nodded in satisfaction.
“Prince Anos had already purchased all supplies a week ago and departed for the Red Moon Territory.
The thing I told you about last time, the one concerning the establishment of an adventurer city, is now on track.
You need to go back to the Lost Plane and spread this news.
I think the forces from your Lost Plane will be very interested in this, especially now that they have been annihilated by us several times and will definitely want to establish a grand city completely belonging to adventurers in order to break free from our control.
Prince Anos’ experience and his beliefs will surely be recognized by the adventurers.”
After saying this, Stanley looked deeply at Hun Yuan, “Hun Yuan, I see great potential in your future. You have already been linked with the Dark Contract, so there’s no need to think of escaping or leaving.
Your future lies with the Dark Contract, not elsewhere.
Believe me, as long as you contribute to the Dark Contract, it will not let you down.
Everything you currently have is the best proof.
In the future, the more you give, the more you will receive.”
His tone was filled with sincerity, carrying a strong persuasive power.
I…
Hun Yuan looked at Stanley, whose expression was serious, and at that moment he almost felt like crying.
Damn it; this heart-winning tactic is really… And why, despite knowing he’s trying to win me over, do I still feel so moved? This NPC is unbelievable.
“Chairman Stanley, I…”
“No need to say more, I hope you will not be absent from the future of the Dark Contract.”
Stanley said solemnly to Hun Yuan, “Regarding Prince Anos’s matter, I will arrange someone to specifically liaise with you. This matter concerns the development direction of the Dark Contract; do not take it lightly.
Go and get it done.”
“Yes,” Hun Yuan nodded vehemently.
As he turned around once more, his thoughts had shifted again.
You might not believe this if I told you, but I was really persuaded by an NPC…
From now on, I might just become a spokesperson of NPCs on Earth.
“Who the hell is playing the game here??? Am I sure I’m playing the game and not being played by the NPCs inside???
Why does it feel like Earth is the game world and ‘Glory’ is the real world?”
After exiting the hall, Hun Yuan stood on the open ground and was lost in thought for a very long time.
He could not comprehend how he had reached this point.
Turning his head to look at Thunderclap Hand and Cheng Kun, he asked dumbfoundedly.
“Third brother, fourth brother, tell me, are we playing a game?”
Thunderclap Hand Cheng Kun looked at each other, touched their heads, and said uncertainly.
“Maybe… right?”
“Should be… right?”
All three idiotic players were struck down by Chairman Stanley and began to question their lives, falling into the philosophical conundrum of whether they were playing the game or being played by the game.
That night, on the first day after the disaster of blasphemy, a new post appeared on the forum and instantly sparked heated discussions.
“The Player Main City in the Nolan Empire is about to be established”
Most players saw this title and were skeptical, if not downright scornful, but they couldn’t resist checking it out because of the poster’s ID: Hun Yuan.
As the boss of the Dark Contract Club, Hun Yuan had named his club after a faction in the game itself.
However, this wasn’t what made players interested. What made them remember Hun Yuan was that he had started posting on the forum during the beta, looking for people to join the Dark Contract,
and he was also one of the first beta players to have NPC subordinates, even before the undead bigwig, the Broken Sword Knight.
To this day, there are still animated funny gifs on the player’s forum depicting the three idiots, Hun Yuan, Thunderclap Hand, and Cheng Kun, commanding their NPC subordinates to lift and photograph them—a modest claim to fame.
Moreover, frequently sharing his comfortable life in the Dark Contract had made many players green with envy.
Quite a few players who recognized Hun Yuan immediately clicked in.
The content inside shocked them.
Hun Yuan: Today, I’m revealing a major secret— the first player main city in “Glory” is about to be established.
This is not just me rambling nonsense but something I learned from a high-level NPC after completing a series of epic quests.
By my estimation, this must be a requirement for the storyline and future development needs of the official “Glory” site.
Why do I say that?
Because players are indeed suffering too much—leveling up is hard, slaying monsters is hard, completing quests is hard, and even making money is hard.
Under these circumstances, “Glory” will inevitably activate some hidden options, and what I mentioned about the player main city is one of them.
First, let’s talk about the current backdrop where NPCs are slaughtering players en masse, forcing them to abide by their rules.
Adding to that, players face a harsh living environment, which even led to a massive wave of quitting the game capsules, and although no one has spoken out, the operators of “Glory” are definitely under tremendous pressure.
So, establishing a city completely dominated by players, free from NPC factions, makes sense.
After I completed that epic quest, an NPC personally told me that the player main city would be established in the southern provinces of the Nolan Empire, near the sea, outside of Green City.
And the master of this city would be Prince Anos Nolan of the Nolan Empire.
His Highness will establish a new city on this expansive piece of land where he will massively recruit adventurers from the Lost Plane.
Especially for major guilds within the players, if you move in, Prince Anos will distribute land freely for you to develop, and he also allows various commercial activities in Anos City.
It can be said that this city, just laying its foundation, is prepared entirely for the players.
If guilds in the southern provinces of the Nolan Empire could send someone to assess it, getting a piece of land you can freely develop is undoubtedly much better than being oppressed by NPCs in other cities.
I will also lead the Dark Contract to settle there, guys hurry up, if you go late and the best plots are taken, don’t come crying to me.
…
While Hun Yuan’s post might be full of holes and seem logically weak, the information it reveals is substantial.
Especially the part about giving away land for free, this tempted many guilds in the southern provinces of the Nolan Empire.
Wanting to purchase fixed assets in “Glory” is challenging, as many cities have requirements regarding player reputation and contributions—you might not be able to buy even if you have money.
Moreover, some cities are extremely hostile towards players, not even allowing them to purchase housing.
Given such oppressive situations, suddenly hearing about a place offering free land was incredibly enticing.
Regardless of whether it’s true, sending someone to check it out won’t harm anything, so many guilds were tempted.
The responses below were particularly enthusiastic.
1st Floor: I feel like I missed a few pennies. Thanks for the invite. I’m in the Storm Sea Domain, just off the ship. It’s quite cool here, just a bit rainy. It’s already rained twice this week—one lasted three days, the other four days…
2nd Floor: Don’t think this will tempt me to give up my Elf girl. Think again. The strategy to conquer the Elf Alliance has already attracted 50,000 players. Join me in pursuing dreams in the Ancient Forest. Click on my title to chat privately. Elf girl showing legs.jpg, Elf girl bathing.jpg
3rd Floor: Finally a player main city, I want to go home. This world is too hard.
Fourth Floor: Hey, does the player’s main city distribute cute girls? If not, guys are fine too, I’m open.
Fifth Floor: Holy crap, why didn’t you say so earlier? I’m checking it out right now. Don’t compete with me; I’ve already claimed a spot in the city center. Even Jesus can’t change my mind on this, that’s Duan Kun’s word.
Sixth Floor: Are you lonely at night? Do you feel empty and bored? Do you desire a clash of spirit and flesh? Do you long to hear cries of pain mixed with pleasure? Call this number and join us—Women’s Boxing Night Training Partner. Call number image.jpg
Seventh Floor: …
As soon as this post by Hun Yuan became known to the general player base, guilds from Green City quickly went to verify its authenticity.
The next day.
Even more explosive news came.
“Holy shit, it’s actually true about the player’s main city! I’ve already got my land!!”
Yesterday when I saw Hun Yuan’s post, I thought he was just blowing smoke. But when I went there, I actually got a piece of land! Here’s the land title for everyone to see, land title screenshot1.jpg, land title screenshot2.jpg, latest address screenshot 91.jpg.
See? I didn’t post the wrong thing!!
Hahaha, our guild only has 20 people, and Prince Anos directly allotted us a huge patch of land.
Even though it’s just a shabby little village, it’s still land, damn it. Now that we have land officially recognized, we no longer have to worry about finding a place to sleep when we log off. I’m going to build a huge villa here!!
On-site photo.jpg, on-site photo2.jpg…
The players who saw this post suddenly felt jealous.
First Floor: Are you serious? This shabby place is just a small village; it doesn’t even have proper roads. Who would want this kind of land? By the way, where exactly is this located? Just asking, I just want to check out the scenery, it has nothing to do with wanting the land.
Second Floor: Forget about it, you must be part of a guild with over 100 members to own land, and if you don’t start construction within half a year, it will be taken back. The original poster got there early; I reckon the conditions will rise if you go there late.
Third Floor: What’s with that 91 latest address? Why did my computer break after I entered the URL, and the people that appear can’t even display their clothes, bad review, I bet the original poster did this on purpose to infect us with viruses.
Fourth Floor: Hahaha, I can’t believe I found the elusive 91 address here, bless your kind soul.
Fifth Floor: Bless your kind soul.
Sixth Floor: Bless your kind soul.
Seventh Floor: Bless your kind…
After the news about Hun Yuan’s Red Moon Territory establishing a player’s main city was confirmed, it immediately caused a massive sensation.
Getting a piece of land to develop freely is way too tempting for guilds.
Many wealthy second-generation players have already started forming groups and even plan to enter the real estate development game.
As a large number of players poured in, the background information of Prince Anos also gradually became known to the players.
Such a tragic and misfortunate background made the players see him as a treasure.
Isn’t this background just like a main character’s?
Not liked by his father, his mother poisoned to death, his talents destroyed from childhood, and even his fiancée broke off their engagement, with a girl who likes him waiting for his return…
Any of these points in a movie or novel would already make a protagonist, but now all such unlucky events have converged, making Anos suddenly appear as a gleaming golden thigh in the eyes of the players.
Though he’s down on his luck now, sooner or later, he’s bound to rise meteorically.
Especially after Prince Anos arrived in the Red Moon Territory, theoretically speaking, he had no one to help him, but now, daily, massive resources are being shipped to him from various guilds.
Isn’t this just like the elderly backer in novels supporting Anos?
Destiny Hero!!
A resounding title thus began to circulate; this is the future super boss in Glory.
After this, the appeal of the Red Moon Territory skyrocketed, with many guilds even coming from thousands of miles to fight for a spot of land.
Within just over half a month, the originally desolate Red Moon Territory was filled with the figures of players, and it became a bustling scene overnight.
And those major guilds that were allocated land, of course, wouldn’t just leave it idle. The Destiny Hero is right here; how could they not curry favor now for future play?
The potential of this city is enormous; if they don’t take possession now, think about how many benefits they would miss out on when it develops later.
The result of major guilds settling in was large-scale investment, with huge funds beginning to flow into the Red Moon Territory and into the newly established Anos City.
And no one knew that the title Destiny Hero seemed to have originally leaked from the Dark Contract…
And thus, a city considered by players as their own, the player’s main city, officially stepped onto the fast track of development.
