【The Nightmare World will be undergoing a major version update in 10 minutes. Please log off within 10 minutes, otherwise, you will be forcibly logged off. 】
This was the first time players in the Nightmare World had received such a system notification. For a moment, everyone exclaimed in surprise. Some unfortunate players who were in the middle of a battle were wiped out by this announcement…
“Damn, it’s finally getting a version update, I thought this damn 0.09 version would last a lot longer…” one player said as they looked at the notification.
“And it’s a major version update! I wonder what new content they’ll add. I’m looking forward to it!”
“I think they need to make some changes to the combat system. It’s just too hardcore, you can’t survive!” a player who had died several times lamented.
“I really shouldn’t have chosen the bow and arrow. It’s so damn hard to shoot, it’s even hard to kill a single Great Jaggi. I can’t even find a team who wants me!” a bow and arrow user cried out in despair.
“Bro, who wants an archer who can’t even aim? Plus, it’s not just the bow and arrow, melee weapons are just as hard to use…” a player holding a Charge Blade patted the archer on the shoulder and said.
“Logging off for a version update. So this world really is just a game… I wonder what company made it… ”
“I’m more concerned about how this company got me into this game world!”
“Me too!”
Time passed by, and the players began to find places to log off. Odilia bid farewell to Zhang Xing Yu and left the Nightmare World.
After about 8 minutes, all the players in the Nightmare World had logged out through the system options, except for one.
Zhang Xing Yu was in “Creator” mode at this time. He looked around and found that the remaining player was 【Invincible Fat Dude】, who was exploring the Starfall Base.
Zhang Xing Yu remembered that this 【Invincible Fat Dude】 was the creator of the 【Nightmare World】 section of the Saint Dance Academy campus network. He had always stayed in the prologue and researched many secrets of the game, including the strategy to break through the prologue, the Land Queen’s set, and so on. All of them were written by Invincible Fat Dude.
“Hmm… It seems everything about Starfall Base is normal…” Invincible Fat Dude seemed to be researching something again. He looked at the sea and murmured, “This world, is it really just a virtual game world… ”
Ten minutes were up, and Zhang Xing Yu kicked Invincible Fat Dude out of the game.
“This fat guy… He might bring some surprises to me and the Nightmare World.”
Through Creator mode, Zhang Xing Yu naturally heard what Invincible Fat Dude said, and he couldn’t help but smile mysteriously.
………………………………………………
“Let me see, what exactly did you add to that Great Jaggi that killed us…” Zhang Xing Yu didn’t ask the Nightmare Lord directly, but instead looked at the attributes of the Great Jaggi.
【A Lower Rank Great Jaggi (Elite) with a dream of becoming a Higher Rank Monster.
Type: Jaggi.
Sex: Female.
Experience: Once hunted by the Starfall Base Hunter Squad, but escaped by chance. Because all her children died, she was filled with anger and decided to take revenge on the hunters.
In order to improve her skills, she fought against monsters like the Brute Wyvern and the Tobi-Kadachi in the Ancient Forest and learned some of their combat techniques.
She has recently given birth to a second litter and is now teaching her children combat skills.】
“Holy crap, so you learned your techniques from Tobi-Kadachi. You’re awesome! You’re even teaching your babies combat skills. No wonder I thought these Jaggis were so strong!”
Looking at this awesome description, Zhang Xing Yu felt that his loss wasn’t in vain.
He didn’t think much of the Nightmare Lord’s unauthorized modification of the monster’s attributes, which inadvertently caused him to lose (Zhang Xing Yu thought the Nightmare Lord must have upgraded this Great Jaggi before he decided to fight it), because the Nightmare Lord was the main force behind the creation of the Nightmare World. Although Zhang Xing Yu was learning the power of Nightmare, he could only use it for simple applications for now.
Moreover, in order to make the monster ecology of the Monster Hunter world closer to reality, Zhang Xing Yu had asked the Nightmare Lord to add skills to monsters according to the situation.
Originally, in the Monster Hunter game, the ecology of the monsters, including their appearance, behavior, attack methods, etc., were all created based on similar beasts in reality, after adding human imagination.
The Nightmare Lord’s original world, however, had many bizarre and strange beasts growing naturally. The Nightmare Lord was undoubtedly more familiar with the attack methods of these beasts and could better create detailed settings for the monsters.
One was an imagined monster, the other a real-life beast. Naturally, the Nightmare Lord was more suitable for creating a perfect monster ecological world!
“Let’s see, are there any other elite monsters…” Zhang Xing Yu began to check around the Ancient Forest and sure enough found elite versions of the Brute Wyvern and the Tobi-Kadachi. This elite Tobi-Kadachi looked especially powerful, and even had a special skill called “Thunderstorm!”
“Adding elite monsters is good too. It adds more uncertainty and fun to the game…”
However, given the current situation where the players were being beaten like dogs by ordinary bosses, if they knew there were even stronger elite bosses in the game, they would probably be screaming and crying.
Just thinking about the players who had just learned their weapon skills and were ready to hunt monsters, only to run into an elite boss in the next update…
“Heh heh…” Zhang Xing Yu couldn’t help but laugh.
Even though the Nightmare Lord had tricked him once, Zhang Xing Yu thought it would be pretty satisfying to trick the players in the same way!
“But, since we’re adding elite monsters, the rewards need to be increased too.”
Although the Nightmare Lord had added the elite monsters on his own, he hadn’t made corresponding rewards.
Zhang Xing Yu couldn’t think of any good rewards for a while, so he decided to use the simplest method - to create a full set of elite armor, with higher defense than the ordinary ones. Most importantly, equipping the entire set would give a bonus elite set skill!
