Dungeon Player

Sherlock did not rush to tear open the letter, but first picked up the "Winterfell Monthly" and sat down talking to himself:

"I don't remember ordering the newspaper..."

The newspaper is very large. When unfolded, there are four large sections on one side. Each of the four sections has its own headline——

[Winterfell's 666th event is on sale, with an immediate 9.99% discount in stores. This is a once-in-a-century opportunity! 】

[Are you still troubled by your children being naughty, smoking, vomiting blood, tired of studying, and rebellious? Don’t worry, the professional doll punching machine is available today. Once you hit it, another one will come out, and you won’t have any worries! 】

[Selling fakes, selling fakes, all I sell are fakes, but they are cheap. 】

Sherlock read it carefully and confirmed that it did not contain what he wanted, but he still wrote down the store's mailing address.

[Recruiting advertising space]

Sherlock ignored these. The advertising section, which was not attractive to him at all, only occupied about 95% of the front and back of the newspaper.

The rest is in the small section at the bottom of the middle, where some more realistic news is written.

[Winterfell is recruiting a welcome ceremony performance team with generous remuneration. 】

[A certain goblin acted bravely in an underground river and rescued three little murlocs who fell into the water. After ten days of rescue, two of the little murlocs unfortunately died of lack of water. Winterfell awarded him a bravery award. 】

【urgent! A catastrophic accident occurred at the ancient ruins excavation and development site No. 85! 】

Sherlock glanced at the title a few more times, and then carefully read the following content:

“Last night as this newspaper reported, a catastrophic accident occurred at the excavation and development site of ancient ruins No. 85.

According to official reports, the excavation and development site of No. 85 ancient ruins was originally a gathering place for the ancestral graves of a certain beastman village. Due to the excavation work, a large number of ancestor skeletons got up to resist the construction on the site. The disturbed ancestor skeletons have now reached an agreement with the construction team. The merchant alliance suffered heavy losses and reserved the right to sue the construction party for compensation.

But some professionals pointed out that this may be a long-planned scam.

Professor Bacon, deputy director of the Academic Affairs Office of the College of the Dead, who was visiting Winterfell, was forced to give an interview to our newspaper:

[Bacon: Huh? Want to interview me? Is it okay if I refuse? Really not possible? Do you dare to threaten me? No, no, no, I know, then give me a mosaic of my name. 】

[Pei·Mosaic·Gen: Ahem, from a professional point of view, the possibility of the ancestor’s skeleton climbing up on its own is very slim, so there must be an ulterior conspiracy behind it! 】

Thanks to Pei Mosaic Gen for accepting the interview with our newspaper.

Our newspaper will follow up on the follow-up situation. "

Sherlock put the newspaper down and then opened the letter on the side.

[Lord Sherlock of the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon (Collection) - Winterfell Affairs Office]

"Dear Lord Sherlock, please inform Mr. Lockhart on your behalf, asking him to report to the Winterfell Affairs Office, No. 85 Archaeological Team of the Ancient Ruins Development and Exploration Research Committee, Team Leader [Beast] within three days.

Thank you - Winterfell Office. "

Sherlock finished reading the letter and put it away. Blue beside him said:

"It seems that a major discovery has been made at Ancient Ruins No. 85, Lord Sherlock."

"Who knows, judging from the official report, it seems that they just stabbed the ancestral graves of other people's villages." Sherlock clicked on the forum, holding bloody chrysanthemum tea in one hand, and drank it leisurely, not at all anxious.

"Whether it is this world or another world, a businessman's words cannot be trusted even if they are half punctuated. Lord Sherlock should also know this very well."

Blue smiled and continued.

"If there is a contract, it can still be believed."

As Sherlock spoke, he browsed the posts of players on the forum. After browsing around, he saw a post from Sylvanas called——

【Network connection interrupted? What the hell? 】

And more than a dozen people have left comments below, encountering the same problem.

"Blue, is your summoning unstable?"

Sherlock asked Blue.

"Wait a moment, Lord Sherlock. I'll check the server database first." After Blue finished speaking, he was silent for a while, and then quickly said:

"Lord Sherlock, according to the server records, the player named Sylvanas and the other offline players were all attacked by mental magic and scream of the mind. Generally, creatures like goblins, according to their Magic resistance will drive them crazy immediately. But the souls of the players are not in this world, so the effect caused by this type of spell is similar to the interruption of the network connection. They only need to log in again, You won’t die, and you won’t be harmed in any way. But I suggest it’s better to interfere in the research of the top student.”

Sherlock stood up, rubbed the back of his head, and walked out of the core hall.

"This top student..."

————————

In a dark room, lying on a large piece of polished stone, was a green-skinned goblin with the words [Sylvanas] on his head. The goblin closed his eyes and looked like It's like falling asleep.

There is a lich next to him, holding a notebook and recording seriously:

"...The 21st psychic scream is confirmed to be cast.

The 41st experimental subject, the goblin named Weird Letter [Sylvanas], like the previous goblins, did not show any effect similar to madness after being hit by Mental Scream, but just fell asleep immediately. past. (Note: The common cognitive impairment of these goblins is not within the constant range that affects the research results)

Then the following guesses can be made.

1: These goblins have no souls. They are existences similar to skeleton soldiers, but their bodies exist in this world.

But judging from the previous biological modification experiments, as well as the highly complex sociality and intelligence they displayed, each of them has autonomy and is not manipulated, so this possibility is extremely low.

The greatest high-level demon cannot simulate and control a hundred goblin dolls with different personalities for a long time.

2: They are immune to such mental spells and use a special way to avoid damage. The mental scream only causes them the same effect as excessive sleeping bugs.

If so, this will be one of the important research topics in the future. The tower of spiritual magic may collapse as a result, leading to a series of changes in magic.

3: These goblins signed a soul contract with Lord Sherlock, and their souls are bound to the upper demon. If this is the case, it is understandable that my spiritual scream is ineffective against them.

But the drowsy effect remains unexplained.

4: Lord Sherlock may have arranged a range of magic to render spiritual magic ineffective or reduce its effect.

It is not certain yet, but this is the most likely one. If there is a chance, I hope to conduct similar experiments farther away to see the effect.

I will look for an opportunity to apply next time.

5: It’s my own food. "

The academic master finished writing these research records, and then sat down. He was observing [Sylvanas] and recording how long it would take for the goblin to wake up and whether it was alive and kicking.

His research time was very limited, Sherlock only gave him two days to study.

In the past two days, he tried about twenty methods to kill these goblins, and then repaired their corpses and observed their resurrection.

Without exception, every goblin was successfully resurrected.

As for burning the body, this is not allowed by Sherlock.

It can be burned to death, but it cannot be burned to ashes, and the body cannot be completely disposed of, or turned into an undead. According to Sherlock, these are all studies that are harmful to the interests of the eternal kingdom dungeon.

As the research deepened, the top student had more and more questions about these goblins, and the notebook he had originally prepared was almost completely filled.

He sat in front of [Sylvanas], deducing and reviewing the experiments of the past two days, until Sherlock pushed aside the goblins waiting in line at the door to be studied, and walked in.

Sherlock walked directly in front of [Sylvanas], grabbed Sylvanas from the stone with one hand, checked it, threw it outside the door, and then closed the door.

The wailing sounds of players came from outside:

"No! My mission has expired! I want [Dark Blessing] too!"

"Puppet Dog! There is no time display for this task, so why has the time passed?"

"Ah! If I had known I would have queued up yesterday!"

Sherlock ignored the wailing outside, and then said to the top student:

"The two days of research are almost over. I hope you can gain something from these two days. By the way, the processing of kobold eggs must be carried out as soon as possible. I have a great plan to implement. If possible, Those modified kobolds are a little cuter, eh, do you understand what cute means, right?"

"I understand, Lord Sherlock."

The top student stood up and saluted Sherlock, then put away his notebook.

Sherlock was about to leave, but turned back to the top student and said:

"By the way, have you studied ancient ruins?"

"This is one of my research topics. I have published relevant papers for five consecutive years, and have conducted field investigations and research into the No. 1, No. 5, and No. 18 ancient ruins in the northern underground world."

The top student said so.

"Very good. There may be a related task assigned to you soon. You can make some preparations appropriately."

After Sherlock finished speaking, he turned and left.

The top student was left standing alone in the cemetery hall, but soon he could no longer think quietly.

Because those players whose missions failed, after following Sherlock for a while and finding that there was no plot, they turned back and ran in together, hoping to find this lich to get the mission again.

What they faced was just the expressionless skull face of the top student.
