"Brother Xiu, as you know, our town has become a dungeon, but it seems that because it's a new dungeon, not many people are involved, and not many people are watching the live stream, so it's still within a controllable range."
Zhong Mu helplessly spread his hands, "However, since the players who came in didn't believe that we were also players, and they were prone to causing trouble by running around, we had no choice but to tie them up first."
One or two of them came in and treated their room like a dungeon search area, insisting on going in to look for clues and items. It was so annoying that we arrested them all.
Even after being caught, I still felt that this instance was very realistic, and even the monsters simulating players reacted just like real players.
While talking to Yin Xiu, Zhong Mu rolled her eyes and complained, "Who would have thought that the room where I sleep every day would be used as a dungeon location for searching? They even wanted to take my items, saying, 'The drop rate in this dungeon is so high, you can find items as soon as you come in.' I kicked them out immediately."
Yin Xiu nodded. "Have all the players from the town been gathered?"
Zhong Mu clenched his fist excitedly, "We've gathered all the survivors, but with so many people and so much noise, it's easy for something to go wrong. So we've chosen a few people who usually follow Boss Ye around. We'll meet at Boss Ye's room in a bit."
Yin Xiu nodded after listening, organizing the information in his mind so that he could tell them later.
He had never cooperated with so many players before. He used to do dungeons alone. This was the first time he had cooperated with players from the whole town due to special circumstances, and he was a little nervous.
Ye Tianxuan's room wasn't big, and he hadn't gathered many people this time. Four people came from the opposite side, and with Zhong Mu, Yin Xiu, and Ye Tianxuan in the coffin, there were seven people in the room, making it a bit cramped.
Most of the people who initially managed the town with Ye Tianxuan had already completed all the levels and left. Ye Tianxuan stayed behind to work on the five-star system, while Ye Tianxuan was obsessed with all the information in the dungeon. Only a few people stayed behind to manage the town like him.
Although he had been in the town for so long, Yin Xiu didn't know any of them. They didn't usually have any contact with him. Ye Tianxuan was in charge of stabilizing the condition of this killing god. So when a group of people met, everyone on the other side knew Yin Xiu, but he found them all to be strangers.
"Um... Brother Xiu, should we introduce ourselves first?" The group looked at each other, unsure of how to begin. After all, the only person in the room who was truly familiar with Yin Xiu was Zhong Mu, who had gone through a dungeon with him.
Yin Xiu nodded, and then the four people opposite him began to introduce themselves.
"Since we just met, you won't remember everyone's names if we introduce ourselves one by one, so let me just give you a brief introduction of our location in the town."
The first person to step forward said, "I'm in charge of information search and management. It's my job to summarize the guidance information for new players regarding dungeons. Simply put, I collect dungeon information. You can call me the information team leader. I'm in charge of all the dungeon guides."
Another person came out and said, "I'm in charge of human resources management. I'm responsible for accepting new people in the instance and bringing them into the town for assignment. Most of the new people in the town are brought in by me. You can call me... the reception team leader."
"I'm in charge of training new players. I manage some experienced veteran players who are good at dungeons. I assign veteran players to guide new players through dungeons and train them. You can call me the training team leader."
Finally, he nodded calmly. "I manage the distribution of resources within the town. The items that the town's players collect from the dungeons, as well as the food they exchange for from the shops, will all be handed over to me. I will distribute the items according to the suitability of new players, and then provide food resources according to the dungeon duration before they enter. You can call me the resource team leader."
After everyone had introduced themselves, they all said in unison, "Of course, in the beginning, the system in the town was not as complete as it is now, and there weren't enough people. Boss Ye did everything. Later, when there were enough people, he was assigned tasks. So he takes care of everything in the town and is considered our leader. That's why we call him Boss Ye."
After listening, Yin Xiu fell into deep thought. "So there are so many management branches in this small town?"
He had lived in the town for so long, fishing every day, but he had never known anything about his surroundings. This was the first time he had ever seen anything like it.
One of them scratched his head awkwardly. "To be honest, Brother Xiu might not be too happy. Actually, when Boss Ye wasn't very familiar with you at the beginning, our town had a special emergency team to deal with you. They were responsible for observing your condition and trying their best to suppress you when you went berserk."
"Because at the beginning, Brother Xiu seemed a bit unapproachable and didn't seem to listen to anyone. Everyone was quite afraid of him. If a conflict arose, we would have to have a plan... But that's no longer the case."
The four of them nervously looked away from Yin Xiu, afraid that Brother Xiu would be unhappy.
Yin Xiu never expected that he had been guarded against to the point that there was a special team responsible for keeping an eye on him.
He probably felt relieved after seeing that he was just fishing for retirement.
"It's alright, I don't care." Yin Xiu shook his head lightly, then calmed down and organized the information, telling the other party about the current situation in the town.
The entanglement between Li Mo and Yin Xiu has made the dungeon tense, and turning the town into a dungeon is one of the measures taken by the Night Goddess to deal with him. The current role of the town players is that of sacrifices, and the town players are connected with Yin Xiu.
After hearing this huge amount of information, the group began to summarize face to face. "Brother Xiu, your boyfriend has a lot to do with the dungeon. He's someone that even the Night Goddess fears. And because of your boyfriend's closeness to you, the Night Goddess is also very nervous about you, which is why she personally appeared to pull you into the dungeon."
"The last instance was a trap, turning you, Brother Xiu, into a follower of some god and causing you to mutate into a monster. We all became sacrifices; the more one of us dies, the more your mutation intensifies?"
Yin Xiu nodded, "That's about right."
Li Mo contacted the instance, Yin Xiu contacted Li Mo, and now the town players have contacted Yin Xiu again.
It's unclear what the Night Goddess's intentions are in bringing them together and forcing Yin Xiu into becoming a tool of monsters, but going along with it certainly won't end well.
"And another thing," one of them objected, "Brother Xiu, you said you saw the black mist coming out of the lake where you usually fish, which is new information for us, but you said you could hear the sounds of the dungeon's past existence in the black mist, which is not quite right."
The person opposite spread their hands in confusion. "To be honest, we weren't used to the black fog until the second day it appeared. In the town, there was often no time to hide, and there were times when we stood in the black fog, but no one heard any sounds."
Faced with the confusion on the other side, Yin Xiu was stunned for a moment.
"Is that a sound that only I can hear?"
