The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe-Chapter 317: Unbelievable
There’s a reason for this decision.
Previously, Fang Ka didn’t plan to include corpses with Demon Source among the new players because there weren’t enough players.
Therefore, he felt it wasn’t necessary to create Dual-Class Players with corpses that have Demon Source.
Currently, the demand for Dual-Class Players is almost satisfied, so cultivating regular players is more beneficial and valuable.
But now it’s different.
Now, we’ve added a full 20,000 players in one go.
To be honest, there’s no fear of having a few more Dual-Class Players.
In Fang Ka’s collection at the Sacrificial Altar, besides the Mage corpses players have taken down, there are also quite a few animal corpses with Demon Source.
In total, there are just over ten, not even 20.
This number is trivial compared to 20,000 players.
So Fang Ka plans to bring these corpses out and awaken them together.
At the Sacrificial Altar, not much waiting was needed; soon, the two merfolk who were in charge of conveying the message brought over the merfolk from Merfolk Town, entering the Sacrificial Altar.
Fang Ka glanced around and found that there were nearly 200 merfolk who came.
He nodded with satisfaction, then said, "Just like before, head to the second basement level of the Sacrificial Altar and transport the corpses out from there."
"This time, a total of 20,000 corpses are needed, you handle the distribution and arrangement yourselves."
After speaking, Fang Ka moved to the side and closed his eyes in meditation.
He didn’t specifically instruct the merfolk to bring out the corpses with Demon Source.
There are indeed a lot of corpses in the second basement level, but 20,000 corpses occupy a significant portion of it.
So there’s no need for special instructions.
As expected, they’ll definitely bring out the corpses with Demon Source.
Upon hearing Fang Ka’s words, the merfolk exchanged glances, then began to discuss in low voices.
They quickly confirmed the quantity each was responsible for and then headed to the second basement level of the Sacrificial Altar together.
What followed was a very busy time for transporting the corpses.
Once the merfolk finished their work, the entire Sacrificial Altar was densely filled with corpses.
Fortunately, the Sacrificial Altar is big enough; these corpses occupied about half of its space.
Fang Ka opened his eyes at this moment, looked at the bodies scattered across the Sacrificial Altar, and felt somewhat shocked.
Previously, there were only about 3,000 players, and they rarely gathered together, mostly being separated, so Fang Ka had never witnessed such a shocking scene before.
"So many corpses, I’ve got my work cut out for me. Thankfully, I have enough Mana Potions and Demon Crystals on hand."
Fang Ka sighed slightly, then approached the nearest corpse to him and began to cast magic to awaken it into an Undead Skeleton.
With a full 20,000 corpses, Fang Ka worked for nearly an entire day to awaken all of them into Undead Skeletons.
The lengthy work wasn’t due to casting magic, because this spell to summon corpses as Undead Skeletons is only a Basic Level magic.
With Fang Ka’s current Power Level, casting it was a matter of an instant.
The main issue was the recovery of Spiritual Power and Magic Power.
Although Basic Level magic consumes very little, the sheer number was overwhelming.
Fang Ka needed to take time to recover now and then.
Fortunately, it was finally completed.
Sweeping his gaze over the Undead Skeletons present, Fang Ka couldn’t help but smile, then released the update announcement.
"Major update without server shutdown; this update increases the number of players by 20,000, bringing the current player limit to 23,400.
This update improves NPC AI, fixes several bugs..."
After publishing the update announcement, Fang Ka linked the players eagerly waiting to enter the game into the bodies of these Undead Skeletons.
Meanwhile, all the veteran players elsewhere were in disbelief upon receiving the update announcement.
At that moment, Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching, who was still on Kain Island, immediately went to find his neighbor, Mr. Zhou.
As soon as Mr. Zhou opened the door, Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching didn’t even enter but immediately asked, "Xiao Zhou, did you see it? This update announcement is simply outrageous."
"20,000 players, what kind of concept is that? We only had over 3,000 players combined before, it’s too outrageous."
Hearing Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching’s words, Mr. Zhou couldn’t help but laugh, "Didn’t we predict before that public testing was approaching? So it’s understandable that the internal testing quota is becoming more and more exaggerated."
"Speaking of which, I think it’s necessary for us to head to the Sacrificial Altar. With 20,000 players, although the appearance of Dual-Class Players isn’t greatly related to the number of players, it’s still a massive number."
"I think there’s a possibility some Dual-Class Players might emerge."
Listening to Mr. Zhou, Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching gently shook his head, "Isn’t it unnecessary for us to go? Didn’t we set up a sign over there?"
"If there are Dual-Class Players, they’ll come to find us on their own."
Upon hearing Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching’s words, Mr. Zhou couldn’t help but gently shake his head, "Actually, going there to see if there are Dual-Class Players is a negligible matter."
"The main thing is to pay homage to the lineup of 20,000 players, it’s a rare opportunity."
"Why? Isn’t Mr. Qian interested in paying homage?"
Mr. Zhou’s words made Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching shake his head with a lack of interest, "Ah, what’s so great about the players? I’m not interested."
"I came over to discuss with you what changes and impacts will occur after so many players enter the game?"
Hearing Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching’s words, Mr. Zhou smiled widely, "Mr. Qian, you really are patient, but I can’t wait. I still want to go and pay homage to such a scene of so many players."
"As for the subsequent influence of these players appearing, it will definitely be extremely significant, given that their number is incomparable to us veteran players."
"We can’t compare to them at all, but it’s not urgent, let me pay homage first, and then we’ll discuss these issues when I return."
After speaking, Mr. Zhou didn’t continue the conversation with Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching and quickly headed to the Sacrificial Altar.
