At this stage,
the permanent Adventurers population of Tide Town is approximately 8,000-10,000 people.
This does not include the elderly living in the villages below, or children who have not yet grown up.
In other words,
if Chen Yu were to take over the entire Tide Town,
his daily income should be around 40,000 to 50,000 soul crystals.
But currently, he can only collect a little over 20,000 per day.
On one hand, it just means his Dungeon's capacity is too low to accommodate so many people in a single day.
On the other hand, he hasn't completely cleared out the competition.
For instance, Zhao Hailiang's Punishment of the God of Destruction still maintains popularity and Adventurers.
Other Dungeon Lords also have some works there, and while these works are generally mediocre in quality, they sometimes serve as alternatives.
Additionally, some Dungeon Lords focus on casual games, and this segment indeed has a certain market.
The emergence of Audition Online is also seizing this unoccupied territory.
After filling the entertainment gap,
Chen Yu believes that once his castle level upgrades to 10, all the Adventurers in Tide Town will be gathered under his command.
Actually, to be precise,
over 20,000 soul crystals a day is already equivalent to the total income of all Dungeon Lords in a small town.
After all, for other Dungeon Lords,
a 50% clear-to-death rate is quite normal.
And a single town,
in the system's plan, is meant to support...
an entire beginner area's Dungeon Lords.
So, a daily income of over 20,000 soul crystals, whether in the past or present, is almost equivalent to the total earnings of all Dungeon Lords in an entire beginner area.
If this money were all invested in war,
it would certainly cause a frenzy in the current beginner area.
This is also why...
Chen Yu is not at all afraid of Saint Lingfeng's Angel Sanctuary.
If you really want to fight,
then I'll let you experience the taste of being buried in money; just don't cry uncle when it happens.
"I have a lot of soul crystals now, let's continue upgrading the castle level."
Chen Yu spent 6,000 soul crystals to upgrade the main castle's level, and at the same time, he also needed to upgrade the other two sub-castles, eleven large and small territories... as well as the levels of various Dungeons and buildings.
This wave of upgrades
emptied the warehouse of soul crystals again.
Castle level upgraded to 6.
Village upgraded to 6.
Dungeon level upgraded to 6.
After completing a series of operations,
at this stage, the population capacity of each Dungeon has once again increased.
Happy Chess and Cards 1-10 lines, population 1200.
Resident Evil 1-15 lines, population 1800.
Steel Fortress 1-10 lines, population 1200.
Liar Tavern 1-6 lines, population 720.
Dungeon and Eight Million Warriors 1-13 lines, population 1560.
Audition Online 1 line, population 120.
If all Dungeons are full, there would be a total of 6600 people.
Upgrading one level
increased the overall population by 1100, and income can also increase by 20%.
At this rate,
there's no need to open new Dungeons; as long as the castle level is upgraded to 10, the Adventurers of the entire Tide Town will no longer be able to simultaneously fill all Dungeons.
However, it's not a big problem.
If a Dungeon remains unoccupied for an extended period, the system will automatically send it to the refreshed Dungeon list, where it can be accessed by Adventurers from other servers.
At that time, he won't just earn money from his own people,
but also from outsiders.
Steel Fortress can use not only its own black slaves,
but also those from others.
Moreover, after reaching level 10, the castle's influence will expand.
At that point, it will be able to break through the system's restrictions in Tide Town and influence other surrounding towns.
Chen Yu is very confident
in his own development.
...
The level upgrade of Great Xia Nevernight City naturally caused a shock among Adventurers in the outside world.
Night.
Inside Happy Chess and Cards, voices clamored.
After a day's time, most of those who were supposed to lose had lost everything.
Only a small number of Adventurers
still possessed a large amount of happy coins and were participating in the thrilling and stimulating game modes.
As for why it was still bustling with noise,
of course, it was because the gamblers who had lost everything were reluctant to leave and wanted to stay, even if just watching from the side, which was a form of enjoyment for them.
Inside Resident Evil,
some Adventurers were still stuck in beginner mode.
Even repeatedly watching guides couldn't help them clear beginner mode.
Among them, there were also a few Adventurers with good skills who were attempting to challenge the perfect clear leaderboard, hoping to one day become the top ranked player.
It's just a pity that Li Ruoshu is too strong, and no one can surpass her.
In normal mode,
the gameplay among Adventurers has gradually shifted from fighting monsters to player-versus-player combat.
All sorts of sneaky players emerged endlessly.
Shooting from behind.
Pulling monsters.
Ambushes.
Especially near the Twin Towers, some Adventurers loved to lurk there, RPG in hand, waiting for someone to attempt to escape by helicopter.
It can be said that this Dungeon is completely a paradise for sneaky players.
The extremely high degree of freedom
also brought about a super abundance of gameplay.
Inside Steel Fortress,
thanks to the hardworking and ambitious Adventurers from Deep Sea Town, this area has always been in a state of full capacity.
Since the mining gameplay went online,
Adventurers coming to grind had an additional option.
How to put it...
If you queue up to rush in and die, the rewards are quite random.
But if you go mining for shields, the rewards are relatively stable.
Overall, the income from both is actually quite similar.
However, the Adventurers of Deep Sea Town still don't know what happy coins are for.
They come here purely for the pitifully small food rewards.
It's worth mentioning that Chen Yu, after adding shield monsters, also introduced another type of monster, mimicking the Sparks from Transformers.
They can be called Sparks, or energy cores.
The appearance of these cards is to fit specialized professions like Gunners and Mechanics, for releasing skills.
Sparks themselves have no attack power.
But they can transform.
They can provide energy.
When a Gunner uses skills similar to a flamethrower, the Spark can transform into a flamethrower under the effect of their skill, while also providing a portion of energy enhancement.
This is equivalent to a wizard's crystal ball or magic staff.
It can be considered a celestial technology casting medium.
With the existence of Sparks,
some specialized professions can cast skills more smoothly.
