7 Chapter 6 The Great Method of Monetary Subsidy_1
Translator: 549690339
The future General Dead Bone, after undergoing evolutionary baptism, had fully recovered from his injuries and his missing left arm was restored. His condition had returned to its peak.
However, the conditions of the other Little Skeletons were still quite poor. Mu Yuan did not dare to take the General Dead Bone out for exploration.
Safety first.
While he ordered Dead Bone to contemplate on his skills, the previous tasks continued – that is to set traps to enhance the defensive power of their territory.
Dead Bone: “(??_?)?”
The territory was in a mess. Not only did the scattered bodies of grey wolves need to be cleared and cleaned, but he also needed to build a house that didn’t have any leaks.
Mu Yuan pondered over the next development plan.
“If I could gather the wolf skin and meat, there’d be a lot of value. However…” He glanced at his skeletons and considered this to be a tall order.
Even if General Dead Bone tried, the best he could do would be to tear off a few torn and bloody wolf skins. It would be meaningless.
Moreover, General Dead Bone was already burdened with heavy tasks. His self-improvement and setting up traps took precedence.
Next, he planned to evolve the second Skeleton Soldier as a home guard. Then he would lead Dead Bone to explore the surroundings. Exploring was not just for gathering more resources, but also to understand the area. If he didn’t know what big enemy was hiding in the darkness surrounding his territory, Mu Yuan wouldn’t feel secure.
As for the crucial evolution points, there was no use in being impatient. He could only let each skeleton work around the clock, making the injured skeletons do some manual labor. It didn’t matter if they did it well or not, all that mattered was that they didn’t stop. This was the only way to efficiently generate evolution points.
The number of evolution points produced by an individual skeleton after evolution was slightly higher than before, but the increase was limited. To significantly boost the production of evolution points, he needed to increase their numbers.
He needed more Little Skeletons.
Having arranged all the tasks, Mu Yuan was left with free hands.
But it was not time to rest yet. Before his territory became strong and secure, how could he possibly rest?
Was he playing a game?
This was a matter of life and death!
“I know too little about Supernatural Game and Eternal World, whether other people’s troops can evolve, how to grade troops, what are the main enemies in the early stages, is there any other way to strengthen the troops apart from leveling up and numerous other things, I am utterly ignorant,”
He didn’t even know the skills!
He also wanted to show off his knowledge in front of Dead Bone, effortlessly pointing out key techniques, but he didn’t know any.
He also wasn’t sure what he would face in the future. When could players finally settle down without constantly facing a threat of death and truly wield supernatural power? Even if it was just spitting fire or gushing water.
He was a greenhand who didn’t understand anything. He was a pure novice, in the game for less than twelve hours.
Mu Yuan opened the forum.
In just half a day, a few new faces had appeared in the forum – those with clear player identities.
Shovel General: “Damn! My initial troops are weak Goblins. They are weak and chaotic, not listening to commands at all. Should I just dig my own grave now?”
Dazzling Silly Hair: “Bro, Goblins are not weak at all. There seems to be a goblin settlement outside my territory, and they harass me every day. These creatures even know tactics and are driving me to death.”
A Gu’gu Bird: “Grass (an element), I haven’t closed my eyes for two days because of this damn game… It’s not just that, but I’ve not been able to keep up with updates… Can’t we just not play this damn game? Can’t I just admit that I can’t handle it?”
Crooked Mouth God: “Haha, no one really believes this game exists, right? It can’t be true, right! It’s made to look so realistic.”
Mu Yuan browsed through the posts one by one, and naturally, there were more onlookers in the forum. Many people didn’t believe in the existence of Supernatural Game, but there were quite a few real players.
Looking back and forth, he discovered dozens of players. Some players communicated with each other, but most of them were in worse situations than him, and some were almost wiped out by the pack of grey wolves.
Could grey wolves actually wipe out a player’s units?
That must mean they’re very weak.
Are there no strong players who can provide me with some high-level information?
Besides the top strategy post, Mu Yuan didn’t find anything else useful.
“Rushing to plan the next stage is risky. If I choose the wrong path, I’ll waste a lot of time. Besides, the Novice Trial seems to be a huge crisis. I need to figure out what to prepare in advance. And all these…”
There might still be a way to find the answers.
For instance, the player who wrote the top strategy post.
Regarding the background of the forum, Mu Yuan had some speculations, probably it was run by Xuan Country’s Authority, otherwise they wouldn’t be generous enough to provide such comprehensive and effective strategies.
The Supernatural Game has been around for a long time. Till now, only rumors are being spread, and the societal climate remains calm. This shows that the Authority has strong control. If his guess was right, maybe he was already on the authority’s radar when he entered this forum.
‘Ding Ding Ding——!’
‘The forum administrator has initiated a chat with you, would you like to accept?’
“Is it finally happening?”
Mu Yuan scratched his chin, slightly surprised, and after a short pause, he clicked accept.
A chat window popped up immediately. The other user’s forum name was ‘Not a Daughter Fan,’ complete with an avatar of a cute little girl carved out of ivory.
Mu Yuan: “…”
He had expected many things, but not a forum administrator that didn’t seem too serious. Is this person really an official staff?
As for him, he hadn’t had the chance to choose an interesting username yet. Currently, he was still ‘20230716669.’
“Ahem, sorry to bother you. I believe you must have many confusions and uncertainties right now…Oh, forgot to introduce myself. I’m the administrator of this forum, a Supernatural Game player just like you, and also a staff member of the relevant department in Xuan Country’s Authority. You can call me Yang Kong. Oh, and have you seen my avatar? My daughter is very cute.”
Mu Yuan:”…”
What was he supposed to say? After hesitating for a while, all he could muster was agreeing with Yang Kong and cautiously continued to probe.
Yang Kong continued, “That’s right, this secretive forum was established by the country as a guidance forum. There are a few other forums like this. Their purpose is simple – to guide rookie players who have obtained game eligibility but are still cluelessly adjusting, in order to reduce the death rate of new players.
“After gaining player eligibility and establishing contact with the Eternal Continent, I suppose you must have started looking for related information online, am I right? Most novices tend to do so once the initial excitement wears off. As long as someone searches for such information, they’re bound to find these types of forums, which is not by chance, it is an inevitability.”
Mu Yuan nodded slightly.
Leaving everything aside, without that strategy post, he wouldn’t have been able to defeat the Grey Wolf pack without suffering losses. He indisputably benefited from it.
“You might ask why the existence of the Supernatural World isn’t officially disclosed. I think you understand already. The granting of player status is completely random and limited in quantity. Currently, only the young population seems to have a higher chance of obtaining it. Furthermore, it is rumored that there are much deeper and more important reasons involved, hence the authorities can only guide players in this manner.
“The second purpose is that the authorities need to keep a record of players. This is to maintain social order, and it will not restrict your life or game freedom, as long as you don’t commit any illegal activities.”
Mu Yuan was not surprised by this.
Players are individuals who have the opportunity to wield a supernatural power, and not everyone can have high moral standards like him.
Control was inevitable, just as with weaponry such as guns and swords.
Nevertheless, he tried to express a mixture of surprise, fear, and hesitation in his messages.
Before he could say anything more, Yang Kong said, “Of course, players who have officially registered with the authorities receive preferential treatment. Not only will the authority purchase a high coverage accident insurance policy for players, but they also provide a monthly subsidy of ten thousand yuan. Xuan Country has always strongly supported its Supernatural players.”
Although players might be resistant, the officials are offering too much!
You get a subsidy just for signing up?
I see. If you’re not short on money, not many people would break the law. The authorities are using the power of money to nip any potential problems in the bud.
But do players need money?
Mu Yuan could confidently say, he does!
