Chapter 244: Not One Day? How Did a Year Pass?
“Ah! You’re finally back!”

A figure appeared in front of the Feilong Lake in Xinglong City. He looked very strange with long red hair, strange attire, and a bunch of miscellaneous accessories on his body.

The undead man was still playing with the dragon before logging off, so he appeared here again after logging off. Coincidentally, many undead men chose to log off nearby.

White lights flashed, and undead people appeared one after another, making the originally quiet lake immediately become lively.

"Wait, where is this place?" Someone noticed something was wrong.

They remembered that there was only a very rough lake here yesterday, which was built in a hurry so that the flying dragons could cool down in it, but the one that appeared before their eyes now seemed a bit delicate.

First of all, the lake has been renovated, and there are many supporting small buildings around it, and even many benches and pavilions.

The edge of the lake is guarded by stone bricks, and the more obvious thing is that the area of ​​the lake has expanded several times.

Not only that, there were small boats on the water and a stone bridge built in the distance.

"It should be that the new model building has been updated." A voice came from the side. It was another undead who came online.

"Oh my god, how come my level card is back?"

With this shout, the other undead were suddenly awakened, and then the wailing spread.

The undead who had been drinking potions to force their way to level 11 and thus gain extraordinary powers discovered after logging online that their level was still 11 when they logged off yesterday, but now all their levels have dropped.

"Didn't you say that you won't delete files when updating?"

"It's true that the data has not been deleted, and our equipment is all there. Could it be that they are fixing a bug and preventing us from getting stuck at a certain level?"

There is nothing wrong with not allowing players to get stuck at a certain level, as the level cap has been updated to 20 anyway. However, this official operation makes them very unhappy, as they still have to pay points to buy potions, which is a meaningless expense that makes them very angry.

"Never mind, upgrade first."

After the level cap was raised, the undead were eager to improve their strength and see the scenery at a higher level.

"Wait, this is Star Dragon City?"

More and more undead people noticed the subtle changes. The overall architectural style of Star Dragon City did not change much, but many places became more refined.

To talk about the real difference, it is like this city used to be just a main city of a game built for people to see, and things were placed in many places just because they were needed there. But now, the whole city is full of traces of life.

They could see the ruts left by the carriages as they passed over the ground, and the difference between the wall facing the sun and the wall facing away from the sun.

Details are everywhere.

“What a huge workload this is!”

It was as if the day they were offline had been spent here for a long time.

It seemed like a really long time had passed, because I didn't see many NPCs along the way.

It makes sense that the flying dragon is not in the city.

The Banshee Pool in the square was also closed. After the undead came online, they only wanted to level up and were not very interested in the mini-games, so they didn't care.

But when the undead rushed to the potion shop, they found that it was closed.

Not only the potion shop, but also the blacksmith shop, tailor shop, fireworks shop, etc., all had their doors closed.

"What's going on? Is it possible that the NPC hasn't come to work yet?" someone wondered.

"How about we go to the tavern?"

"go!"

A group of people rushed to the tavern. Before putting on the gaming helmets, they thought that they would use their superior IQ as players to compete with the NPCs, but they didn't expect that all the shops would be closed after going online.

When they looked at the tavern that had been expanded several times, they were a little overwhelmed. The changes in Star Dragon City were indeed huge.

The pub sounded very lively.

When they pushed open the door, they saw the NPCs who had left their shops, including the blacksmith, pharmacist, and the shop assistant. Some were familiar faces, while others looked unfamiliar.

"NPC has really become a spirit!" someone couldn't help but sigh.

Someone immediately nodded: "Well, the update of this game looks quite large."

"Ahem." The soldiers who were drinking looked at the strange yet familiar faces that rushed in, a little stunned, until someone blurted out: "It's the undead, the undead are back!"

The undead are back!

The news spread like a gust of wind to every corner of the tavern, and then flew to every corner of Star Dragon City.

During this period, the Lord has emphasized more than once that the long-missing undead will come back one day, and when they return, there is no need to hide any information, and all questions must be answered, but they should not forget their work.

The establishment of the entire Star Dragon City and the work of these NPCs were originally intended to serve the undead.

Shops reopened.

An undead came up to the NPC and asked, "How have you been lately?"

"Not bad," the NPC smiled.

The undead man immediately sensed the alienation in the other party's tone. He remembered that he and the other party should be relatively familiar friends.

Has it really been that long?
"How long have we been away?" the undead man couldn't help but ask.

"More than a year."

"What, so long!"

Isn't it only updated once a day? Why does more than a year pass in the game? Is there some special plot during this time, or is there some other reason?

The undead didn't hide anything and always spoke directly to the NPCs.

"Is something big going to happen recently?" the undead asked, "Does the Lord have any special orders?"

"There shouldn't be any." The NPC thought for a while before continuing, "Indeed there isn't any."

In recent times, life has been very peaceful, nothing major has happened, and the lord has not waged a war for some time.

This kind of life is pretty good. Except for the fact that there would be a large team of knights going to eliminate disasters regularly, life is very stable.

"Really?" The undead was skeptical.

……

“Why is it online now?”

Linde pulled the reins, and the Blackfire brothers who were serving as his personal guards at the back also stopped immediately.

They were very afraid of death, but Lind sometimes felt that what they were following was not him, but the [Unholy Holy Grail of Black Flame].

As a human being, Lind was absolutely certain that he was alive, not just a piece of data.

The undead take one day to update, but a year has passed in this world. There are probably two reasons for this situation. First, the "official" capacity is insufficient. Expanding the number of undead from 3000 to 12000 requires a lot of energy, so it takes more than a year to adjust.

Second, what happened at this time was in line with the "official" arrangements.

Although these are two speculations, they represent two completely different states. The first one means that the "official" is very weak and can only rely on the accumulation of time to complete the update; the second one means that the "official" is very terrifying, and His vision can transcend time and bring the undead here.

Of course, neither one is important to Lind, because he has more important things to do now.

The number of internal testers has expanded to a total of 12000 people, which means that there will be a large number of new undead people appearing in the major novice villages.

The undead now have only two choices: one is to choose the abandoned old nobles headed by Lind, and the other is the new nobles who are in line with the development of the times.

Therefore, Lind must act as soon as possible to fight for the undead!
