As soon as Chen Yu's mission was released, it immediately caught the attention of the Adventurers.
"Great Xia Nevernight City has finally released a new mission!"
"Charge, charge, charge..."
"happy coins, contribution points, here I come!"
"Only the top ten get contribution points? Looks like I can't slack off, I need to work hard."
"Everyone, let's work hard and try to conquer a few more territories so that Resident Evil can open new branches."
It only took a few minutes.
More than seventy Adventurers' applications appeared on Chen Yu's mission board.
This speed startled Chen Yu.
"Bai Feifei, Li Ruoshu, Qi Maosong..."
These seventy-plus people, of course, couldn't all descend.
Chen Yu could only choose 40 people.
In terms of selection, priority was naturally given to the veteran Adventurers; Chen Yu was already familiar with some of their names.
The system would also rank Adventurers based on their activity within the territory.
Therefore.
Chen Yu quickly selected 40 people, more than half of whom were Adventurers who had always supported him, such as Bai Feifei and Wu Yue.
Seeing Li Ruoshu's name.
Chen Yu didn't hesitate and directly assigned her the only Adventurer's spirit that had been upgraded in quality.
During the last Goblin Tribe assault, Li Ruoshu had displayed extremely strong combat power.
Chen Yu had also seen her name on the Resident Evil leaderboard.
Therefore, Chen Yu also knew that this Adventurer named Li Ruoshu was definitely the most suitable to be a captain.
After arranging this.
Chen Yu no longer wasted time and continued to focus on the production of Resident Evil's Normal Mode.
The Novice Mode had already been cleared.
Although there were now side missions to whet the Adventurers' appetites.
This couldn't last long.
Continuous updates were still needed to maintain the popularity of a Dungeon.
"The map for Resident Evil's Normal Mode needs to be based on a city, which makes it too complex to design."
"It will probably take another two days."
"That's fine too; two days is just enough time to upgrade all the territory's buildings."
The popularity of Happy Chess and Cards had already fermented quite a bit, and new Adventurers were continuously joining.
Chen Yu estimated that today's revenue could stably reach 2000 soul crystals.
A day passed quickly.
Late at night.
When taking stock.
Chen Yu took out 1000 soul crystals and upgraded Happy Chess and Cards from line one to five.
The player limit was expanded.
By now, the entire Dungeon could accommodate 300 people.
After finishing all this, Chen Yu finally fell into a deep sleep.
After the upgrade, the bed in the castle also changed from a stone bed to a large solid wood bed.
After being covered with beast hide blankets, it was clearly much more comfortable to sleep on.
The next day.
Chen Yu woke up to a system notification.
"Notification: The novice protection period has ended, and the monster levels in the current area have been released."
Hearing this sound.
Chen Yu immediately stood up and went to the Adventurer's Tavern in the territory.
He activated the Adventurer's Tavern's summoning.
Forty rainbow-like lights flashed from beyond the horizon and landed inside the Adventurer's Tavern.
Not long after.
Forty Adventurers stepped out of the tavern door.
Some of them held bows and arrows.
Some held longswords.
Only Wu Yue carried a large iron hammer, walking with a vigorous stride.
Li Ruopu raised an eyebrow, hooked his arm around him, and said with a grin, "I say, old brother, we're not attacking a city this time, so why are you still carrying that big iron hammer?"
"Didn't they say there are extra rewards for seizing territory? This is just being prepared, and my strength points are high, don't worry, I can carry it."
Wu Yue replied with a smile.
He could indeed carry it, but his movement speed would be reduced.
This was also why no one else carried heavy weapons.
In the eyes of Adventurers, winning or losing wasn't important; style came first.
Seeing that everyone had arrived.
Chen Yu briefly described the requirements.
It was nothing more than what was on the mission, and then he let the Adventurers do as they pleased.
Adventurers, after all, were not like an army; these guys couldn't be managed, so he could only assign a mission objective and let them complete it themselves.
This was also one of the differences between a Dungeon Lord and a War Lord.
A War Lord had absolute control over their troops, and as long as resources were sufficient, they could continuously produce talented soldiers.
The relationship between a Dungeon Lord and Adventurers, however, was purely contractual; the only benefit was that they were disposable and required no responsibility.
After seeing the Adventurers leave.
Chen Yu returned to the castle and continued to conceptualize the content for Resident Evil's Normal Mode, paying no mind to what the Adventurers were doing.
As soon as the 40 Adventurers left the territory, they spontaneously divided into several teams, heading to the east, west, and south.
Those who were bold and skilled formed teams of two or three, such as the siblings Li Ruoshu and Li Ruopu.
Although Li Ruopu was weak.
Li Ruoshu alone could handle ten, not needing any other help; bringing a tag-along was just for cheering her on.
There was also another team of two, Wu Yue and Qi Maosong.
These two had briefly partnered during the last Goblin Tribe extermination.
One was strength, the other was agility, and their cooperation was also good.
The three Bai Feifei sisters and two other girls formed a team; even though they were girls, they certainly wouldn't be a match for men in reality.
But in this Dark World where all stats were the same, the difference only manifested in skill.
Their five-person combat ability was not weak, especially Lin Xiaoxiao's archery, which was extremely precise, hitting every shot.
The remaining 31 people formed 6 teams, and with this division, the exploration efficiency immediately increased.
"Sister, there's a Level 3 Gale Wolf!"
In a certain forest, Li Ruopu's words had just fallen.
Only a shadow was seen rushing over, and Li Ruoshu's hand moved, her blade falling without any hesitation.
The Gale Wolf was struck in a vital spot.
But it didn't die, whimpering and trying to escape.
However, it was shot in the hind leg by an arrow from Li Ruopu, and then easily had its waist sliced open by Li Ruoshu, who had caught up.
"Not bad, your archery has improved."
After prying out the magic crystal from the Gale Wolf's body, Li Ruoshu casually praised him.
Li Ruopu said with a grin, "Of course, you don't even need to ask whose brother I am."
Saying that, he pulled out a cloth bag and took the magic crystal from Li Ruoshu's hand.
With some regret, "Why isn't it a Fine-grade monster? These Normal-grade ones aren't enough for us siblings to fight!"
"Take it easy, if you die, it'll be a huge embarrassment."
As a top-tier player.
Maintaining vigilance at all times was a necessary cultivation.
One couldn't relax their guard just because the opponent was Normal-grade.
At this moment.
Li Ruoshu suddenly sensed a movement in the grass.
A chill ran through her heart.
After kicking Li Ruopu away, she quickly flipped over and jumped to the side.
Bang!
A wind blade struck the spot where Li Ruoshu had just been standing; without that sidestep to dodge, she would have been severely wounded at this moment.
She had just arrived, and she almost lost her life?
Li Ruoshu's gaze deepened slightly.
She looked towards the direction from which the wind blade had come.
