Chapter 35 The Second Batch of Undead
1.02 updated.

Lind looked at the "cosers" who appeared outside the gate of Star Dragon Outpost, wearing only white shorts and white tube tops, and sighed.

There were probably about forty or fifty people.

Geralt, Son Goku, Uzumaki Naruto, Buddha Tathagata, Bald Qiang, Frieza... There are also those with normal looks, but they are either extremely handsome or extremely ugly, and the polarization is serious.

As soon as Lind showed up, everyone started to get excited.

It is somewhat difficult to control at least forty or fifty players with only nine soldiers. Fortunately, these people have all seen the video of Star Dragon Outpost. Even if they have not, after finding out that they have been teleported to Star Dragon Outpost, they will search for relevant strategies about the territory on the Internet as soon as possible. So they are quite cooperative, knowing that the "Lord" here is a ruthless CG-type character who can kill BOSS.

"The Lord is coming out!"

"Brother De, we are here to seek refuge with you~!"

"Fuck, I have to say, he is really handsome."

Not to mention that Lind was startled, even the soldiers who had been controlling the place were shocked by the sudden enthusiasm. Just now, this group of people were chatting enthusiastically, but as soon as their lord showed up, they jumped up and down as if they were given an injection of chicken blood.

Could it be that the Lord is a big shot in the eyes of the undead?
Never mind, I can’t understand it anyway.

The soldiers had very serious expressions. If such a large number of undead rioted collectively and launched a suicidal attack, how many times could they be stopped?

"Why are there only so few people?" Linde was still a little disappointed.

The update said that some people would be teleported to a nearby gathering place, and he thought that hundreds of players would come.

After all, this is not a novice village, so just be happy to have these.

Lind cleared his throat: "I should say that you came at the wrong time. The world is ending, the magic ring is broken, and cowards should hide in their mother's arms with their noses twisted. Star Dragon Post is not a cradle for good babies. No one is good at humming Uni's songs to coax you to sleep!"

All the players fell silent and looked at him.

The soldiers were amazed at Lind's "ability to control the situation" and repeatedly lamented in their hearts the lord's influence on the undead.

How much respect these undead must have for the Lord that they cheered when the Lord first appeared, but remained silent when he spoke. It was just... just like the expressions they had when they faced the Archbishop when they still believed in the Church of the Sun before the apocalypse.

Worship, believe, obey, lust, greed...

and many more!

Several soldiers noticed something was wrong. Some of the players looked at the lord in a strange way.

Only Lind knew that the players were watching CG.

"You have come at the right time. Disasters abound and the world is in urgent need of a savior who is not afraid of death!"

Looking at the undead people with shining eyes, Lind glanced around and focused on a figure inside.

I was drooling at myself. Why did I feel like something was wrong?

The speech needed to continue, so he raised his voice: "Star Dragon Sentry welcomes the undead who have great ideals and want to save the world!"

"Ah!" The undead screamed loudly, although he didn't understand why he was screaming.

But, it’s handsome, isn’t it?

It was as if they were not playing a game, but a group of people who had traveled to a doomsday magical world, gathered in a small border territory, and prepared to save the world.

Desolation, hunger, mission and faith.

The epic feeling is immediately there.

A total of 55 players arrived, which really made Lind a little stretched in terms of arrangements.

The first issue was resettlement. The soldiers were still hesitant about how to resettle them, but Lind simply waved his hand and let them all in!
Players are all easy-going and have a serious rebellious mentality. The more you forbid them to do something, the more they will do it. Crossing the "air wall" is even more important than beating the boss, so it is also important to open up venues appropriately.

The soldiers had no objection and went on patrol after receiving Lind's order.

As for accommodation, players can just go to the small house built by Ai Baisi and her friends. If they don’t want to play, they can log off. There is no need to sleep in the game.

The second is the use of manpower.

There are 60 undead players in total. If used properly, they can be like 60 cows that never get tired and don't need to eat food.

And it’s not that he wants to exploit people to death, but if he doesn’t give them a reason to exploit them, they will be unhappy.

Considering that if there were not enough tasks and rewards, these 60 players might all run to Prey Town, Lind began to worry about how to deal with the tasks.

He needs a lot of quests to satisfy the undead.

Find them work. In Lind's eyes, Prey Town is more like a player camp than Star Dragon Outpost, so it is important to improve one's competitiveness. Otherwise, he doesn't think that the undead will go to Prey Town and be willing to use it as a base.

"You want to help?"

Lind already had a few ideas and planned to let the undead do things.

Unexpectedly, they were more anxious than Linde and came to him on their own initiative.

“Of course, Star Dragon Outpost will always need people who are willing to lend a hand.” There was some fatigue in Lind’s voice. Although this fatigue did not come from the battle with the BOSS, the Scavenger Princess, but from watching videos and learning how to dress last night, he was just tired, and there was absolutely no acting involved.

"Our walls are not strong enough, and the scavengers that were eyeing us have been eliminated. However, you, the undead people with rich combat experience, must know that they are definitely not the last venomous snakes."

The player nodded vigorously.

Rich in combat? That's right! We are all experienced, praise us, we love to hear it!

"Go and repair the previous holes in the city wall. Make the wall stronger and allow us to sleep well. I am willing to pay 10 Rand gold coins to the undead who help. If you want more people to do this work together and split it equally, that's fine too."

"Are there any other tasks?" The players were not in a hurry to act. Forty or fifty people gathered together and looked at him eagerly.

Lind continued, "The crisis in the Scavenger's Lair has been resolved, but there may be something else hidden. I am very curious about the appearance of the Scavenger Princess. Perhaps you can investigate some secrets."

Compared to the previous task, this task has neither rewards nor monsters to fight, only a vague "secret". Although the players' eyes are shining, no one is willing to take the task.

Because, there are 56 unlucky players here who are penniless and have been wandering around without any gain except for enjoying the scenery.

Only the four old undeads including Ai Baisi are more concerned about this mission. Although their combat power is not strong, after another upgrade of level and equipment, they have completely widened the gap with this group of players. What if there is a hidden plot? What if!
Lind continued, "Star Dragon Outpost needs food. Go hunting or looking for food. For every 10 pounds of meat or 10 pounds of food you find, you can get 2 Rand gold coins. That's all for now. Maybe we can talk about the development of the territory tonight."

This mission makes the undead very excited because there is no need to fight monsters.

They just need equipment now, so they are short of money.

The players started to discuss and plot in front of Lind: "I think this should be a bug. As long as we find enough food, we can keep earning gold coins!"

“Is food expensive in this game?”

"Doomsday, it should be to respect the background setting, but I think it may be an oversight by the production team. What if 1000 pounds of food is directly exchanged for a set of clothes in the future, we will be very upset?"

"I want to buy a suit of armor!"

Lind smiled as he watched most of the players disperse and hurried out to look for food.

Bug? No, I just want food, food!

If there really is 1000 pounds of food, what's wrong with giving you the suit?

As long as there is enough food, the benefits he can gain are definitely more than the players can imagine.

But there were still ten players left who had not moved. Even though Lind had explained that there were no tasks for the time being, they were not in a hurry. Instead, they chose to chat and interact with the surrounding environment, making bursts of "Oh~" sounds.

The players who left in a hurry just now were obviously "achievers", the players that Linde needed for development. This group of people were old players and played games with great passion. [Note 1]
The remaining ten players are probably the most useless “socializers” at the moment, and making friends is more important than playing games.

Obviously, the rewards and punishments proposed by Lind cannot satisfy this group of players who have no desires or demands. Social interaction is more important to them. Lind currently labels himself as a "Souls-like" game, not "Pokemon Go" or "Animal Crossing".

Therefore, it is a bit difficult to use them for your own benefit.
