Outside the Dead Soul Camp,
Countless players who wanted to clear the dungeon were gathered.
Most players wouldn't challenge the Hell difficulty, but rather aim to clear the Adventure and Warrior difficulties of the Dead Soul Camp to drop some popular materials.
"Everyone, is there anyone more unlucky than me? I've been killed by Warrior-level Salina four times in a row, and not even a heart or adhesive dropped."
"You can't even clear the Warrior difficulty, brother? I just got a blue piece of armor, want to buy one?"
"Woohoo! Four bottles of adhesive dropped from Adventure difficulty!"
A common player who had just cleared the dungeon, with incredible luck, got four bottles of adhesive, and was immediately surrounded.
A Sunagakure player, dressed in a rough robe, said, "Two hundred reward points per bottle, I'll take all of them."
The common player looked at the Sunagakure player, hesitated, and then prepared to trade with him.
After all, he was a family player, and it wasn't good to offend him.
Moreover, two hundred reward points was indeed the market price, and he wasn't being ripped off.
"Damn it, he got there first!"
A Mist Hidden Family player cursed under his breath.
Nearby, there were players from other families, all staking out the clearing players to ensure they could acquire adhesive and heart materials to the greatest extent possible.
They all tacitly avoided competing with each other.
The price war between the Mist Hidden and Dawn families for silver hearts had not yet subsided, and everyone knew that price competition was not a good thing; it would only cause everyone to suffer heavy losses.
Therefore, the high-ranking members of the families had discussed it and each occupied a section of the Dead Soul Camp teleportation point, strictly prohibiting crossing boundaries.
After the Sunagakure player bought the adhesive, he handed it to a runner player, who quickly returned to the family territory.
"Has the Material Workshop been built?"
In a corner of the family territory, the Sunagakure players were gathered, constantly taking out the collected Ghost Rock, Ghost Iron Ore, Ghost Wood, and other materials, carefully piling them on the ground.
In the center was an unfinished building.
[Material Workshop (Under Construction)]
Type: Family Building
Level: 1
Effect: Material Processing
Note: One of the most basic family buildings, constructed from low-level materials like Ghost Rock and Ghost Ore, can be upgraded.
"Not yet."
The Sunagakure player, who was asked, shook his head wearily and said, "A shabby workshop requires a full two thousand pieces of Ghost Rock, eight hundred pieces of Ghost Iron Ore... that's enough to build the Kazekage Building in Sand Hidden Village."
The most frustrating part was that
family buildings were judged by the Reincarnation Game to be rule items, and could not be treated as constructing a workshop in reality.
Otherwise, two skills could dig a large pit, and several Jonin-level players could complete the construction in half a day.
[You have invested fifty pieces of Ghost Rock into [Material Workshop (Under Construction)], Status: Success]
[Stamina consumed 30 points, twenty pieces of Ghost Rock lost]
"Phew, good luck."
The Sunagakure player who had just picked up the Ghost Rock and thrown it into the workshop construction site breathed a sigh of relief.
He took out a bottle of stamina recovery potion and sat down nearby to recover his stamina.
The player who came to deliver the adhesive watched in astonishment.
The person next to him explained in a frustrated tone, "When investing materials, there will be four results: Failure, Minor Success, Success, and Great Success."
"Failure: All materials are lost, and the construction progress of the Material Workshop remains unchanged."
"Minor Success: Approximately sixty percent of the materials will be lost."
"Success is like just now, and Great Success means no materials are lost at all."
When they first started building the Material Workshop, they didn't discover this rule and directly invested five hundred Ghost Rocks. After failing, they got nothing, almost driving the Sunagakure family's logistics captain to death.
The probability of Great Success is very low; most are Minor Success and Success.
The probability of Failure is also relatively low.
This led the Sunagakure players from initially cursing the Reincarnation Game for ripping off reward points to now hoping that the Reincarnation Game would bless the Sunagakure family with Great Success every time.
Their attitude compromised very smoothly.
Even now, the logistics captain's heart was filled with affirmation of the Reincarnation Game's rules, and he nodded repeatedly, saying, "Before, I cursed the Reincarnation Game as a vampire, but now I realize that I misunderstood the Game Merchant's painstaking good intentions."
"Is... that so?"
After drinking another bottle of stamina recovery potion, the Sunagakure player moved his weary steps, looking at the logistics captain with a puzzled gaze.
The logistics captain nodded and said, "Exactly, think about it."
"Heart adhesive cannot be used directly; it must be synthesized through the Material Workshop. It seems like the Game Merchant is trying to rip off money by making an unnecessary move."
"Isn't that true?"
A Sunagakure player asked, puzzled.
The logistics captain shook his head repeatedly, revealing a smile of profound insight, and said, "Of course not. This approach is to help family forces acquire adhesive and low-quality hearts more quickly."
If [Material Synthesis] had no restrictions,
Ranger players and squad players who dropped materials would not sell them at all, and would also try to synthesize high-level hearts themselves and then sell them at a high price.
Furthermore,
players without families would gather together, collect high-level hearts, and then establish families using the rare but occasionally dropped inferior family tokens.
At that time, new families would spring up like mushrooms after rain, and wouldn't those forces who invested a large amount of reward points in establishing and purchasing family tokens in the early stages suffer heavy losses?
After listening to the logistics captain's explanation,
most Sunagakure players suddenly understood, and thinking of the Game Merchant's methods, they showed expressions of relief and satisfaction.
A very small number of players remained clear-headed, feeling that something was wrong, perhaps the Game Merchant just wanted to rip off their reward points.
However,
even if they felt their reward points were being ripped off, they had no choice.
Unless they were willing to watch the first family be stolen by other families, no matter how unwilling they were, they could only bite the bullet and spend the reward points.
"Lord Kankuro."
Kankuro, dressed in a black robe, returned to the family territory.
He had just cleared the Hell-level Dead Soul Camp, and his luck was very good, dropping a silver-quality heart, which he quickly sent back to the family territory.
The silver heart was consumed, and the family monument glowed with a pure white light.
After a slight tremor,
Sunagakure's family territory expanded slightly outwards.
"That's great."
Kankuro looked around, his gaze filled with emotion.
His gaze towards the family territory was no different from his gaze towards Sand Hidden Village, even more fervent.
After all, when he was born, Sand Hidden Village had already undergone several generations of development, but now, the Sunagakure family's territory was established by his own hands, built bit by bit. This sense of participation was something even Sand Hidden Village could not give him.
He glanced at the slow-progressing Material Workshop,
Kankuro, ignoring the logistics captain's resentful gaze, said, "Hurry up, try to get the Material Workshop built by tonight."
"Not enough time."
The Sunagakure players said weakly.
Their stamina was depleted, and they felt weak all over. Even after being replenished by stamina recovery potions, the after-effects still hadn't faded.
This was the Reincarnation Game's fatigue mechanism, designed to avoid repetitive labor as much as possible.
Of course, if you wanted to remove the after-effects, you could buy expensive anti-fatigue pills at the Game Store, costing two hundred reward points per pill, guaranteed to allow players to work continuously without getting tired.
But no player was willing.
The feeling of fatigue could be dispelled after a short rest, so why waste reward points?
Two hundred reward points was almost more than the monthly mission Commission of an ordinary ninja in Sand Hidden Village.
Kankuro sighed, "Go find a craftsman, I'll pay the reward points."
Craftsmen,
were also life players, specializing in building skills, which could speed up construction and increase the success rate of building.
Compared to life players like alchemists, pill refiners, and tailors, craftsmen players suffered greatly before the emergence of family territories.
They were common craftsmen in reality, not good at fighting, had no one to help them level up, and would be disliked even if they tried to join a large force.
Now, however, they had turned the tables and become sought-after guests by all major families.
