I Live on the Land in Global Games

Chapter 253 - 253 250 World Integration (400 average plus 34)253: Chapter 250 World Integration (400 average plus 3/4) 253: Chapter 250 World Integration (400 average plus 3/4) As time passed, the closer it came to world fusion, the darker the sky grew.

It was a darkness different from that of an overcast day, as if the entire dome of the sky had lowered.

By the time of the fusion, the whole globe was plunged into complete blackness, the kind of darkness that not even lights could illuminate.

Compared to the meteor shower that marked the arrival of the Doomsday Game last year, it now more closely resembled the apocalypse.

[World fusion in progress...]

Accompanied by an electronic voice, everyone felt a slight tremor in the land.

The vibrations were not strong; they caused no damage to any surface structures, and there were no mountain collapses; all players waited silently in the dark for dawn to come.

After an indefinable amount of time had passed, they finally heard that familiar electronic voice again.

[Fusion complete.]

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The sky gradually brightened, and the warm spring sun seemed as if it had never gone away, still shining bright and beautiful.

“Eh?

It doesn’t seem like anything has changed?”

“Where did the fusion go?”

...

As the Lord of Qingshan Town, Mu Ying could see everything clearly.

It had truly fused.

On the mini-map of the territory interface, directly below the Main Territory, there was a new area that was only slightly smaller than the Main Territory itself, marked with the mushroom cap of a Mushroom Man.

The Half-Breed Sub-camp had not expanded much, with only the previously vacant areas filled in.

Half of the original Half-Breed Replica was within the Sub-camp, and the other half lay outside.

From now on, the Mushroom Man Dungeon and the Half-Breed Replica were definitively a part of the territory.

The Short-range Teleportation Array now covered these two areas as well.

And Mu Ying had expanded the territory so much without spending a single point of energy.

The area of the Main Territory had increased directly from 20 hectares to 38 hectares, nearly doubling in size.

On the Main Territory side, the Mushroom Man’s underground world was deep beneath the ground, directly below the territory.

Since the Territory Shield was already spherical and the underground had always been within its range, the subterranean area had just occupied this part.

On the Half-Breed Replica side, there was no change in the protective shield.

The Half-Breed village that was originally in the replica area was located within the Sub-camp’s protective shield, while the wild lands and fields that were inside the replica lay outside the Sub-camp’s shield.

Looking at this, she had made a great profit.

She had gained nearly twenty hectares of land for free.

Additionally, since she had opened the routes to several No Master Camps in the surrounding area, the small map of the territory also showed the status of these stone paths.

They seemed unaffected, with no damage, but they no longer led to their original destinations.

For instance, the stone path that originally led to the Spirit Dragon Gorge Camp should have gone through its main gate and then stretched forward to the Metasequoia Camp.

But now, the end of the entire stone path was still some distance from Spirit Dragon Gorge Camp.

The Metasequoia Camp was even more uncertain, pushed to who knows where, and was no longer within her map’s range.

This just goes to show how much Deep Blue Star had expanded.

Mu Ying slung the Green Wood Longbow over her back, and hung the Jia Wood Long Sword and Jia Wood Short Sword at her waist.

She changed into a light and nimble combat suit and teleported into the Main Territory.

“Hey!

Mu Ying!” A Mushroom Man Elder, with a light-blocking mushroom umbrella, greeted her cheerfully as it strolled by.

Behind it followed a group of adult Mushroom Man tourists, whereas the Little Mushroom Men were nowhere to be seen.

Noticing her gaze lingering behind them, the Mushroom Man Elder declared with pride, “We haven’t grown enough light-blocking mushroom umbrellas for the little ones, so they’re staying underground keeping house!”

Mu Ying: “...”

Alright then!

Somehow, seeing it like this, Mu Ying, who had been full of fighting spirit and expecting a brawl just moments before, suddenly relaxed.

Maybe the tough guys from the other dungeons were like the Mushroom Men, and the first thing they did upon “getting out” was to take a stroll!

Demon Ghosts and the like are quite smart too; they might know that familiarizing themselves with the terrain by strolling around could mean they aren’t in such a rush to come bother them, right?

Previously, the passage to the Mushroom Man Dungeon was intact during the world fusion process, but as Mu Ying walked down, she found a stone wall blocking the end of the tunnel, with the fused underground world still below.

She turned back to ask the Mushroom Man Elders, “How did you guys get out?”

“Teleportation, really convenient, thumbs up!” The Mushroom Man Elder even raised a fist.

The hands of Mushroom Men are entirely different from humans’, with only a palm and no thumbs at all.

However, they had Communication Spores, and the conveyed message included a big thumbs-up emoji with a “like” beside it.

Mu Ying truly did not expect the Mushroom Man Elder to be so trendy, even learning to use emoticons.

It seemed truly delighted to be able to come out and play during the day, looking more lively than usual.

With a helpless shake of her head, Mu Ying converted the stone wall between the underground area and the passage into energy, clearing the way.

A bunch of Mushroom Man youngsters tumbled all over her.

Gently placing them on the ground, she then saw them rushing toward the adult Mushroom Men with various “crying” emojis.

This place is not for me, time to leave!

She teleported to the Half-Breed Camp and saw the Half-Breed Clan Chief inspecting Sleepless City.

Like an elder statesman, he walked ahead with his hands clasped behind his back, pointing here and there while the young Half-Breeds behind him bowed their heads, receiving his lecture.

“This road is too narrow; wasn’t our original design broader?”

“The greening on both sides of the street isn’t enough; we need to step that up!”

“The occupation rate of the shops is also not up to par; many are still vacant.

It’s not necessary for us to run them all, we could look for humans as well, given their civilization is very advanced, and sometimes they have more innovative ideas than we do.

We should learn from them.”

...

Clan Leader Ned had a different kind of “post-release syndrome” from the Mushroom Man Elder; this “release”—was from the previous replicas.

Mu Ying silently sympathized with the young Half-Breeds and the Mushroom Man youngsters for a second, then without looking back, teleported away, wanting to avoid the chatterbox at all costs.

“Hey, was that Xiao Muying just now?” The Half-Breed Clan Chief asked inquisitively to his younger relatives, then muttered to himself, “Impossible.

Xiao Muying is so well-behaved; if she came here, she would at least say hello and ask how I’m doing.

Sigh, old age really does weaken one’s eyesight!”

The Half-Breed youngsters: “...”

It’s not just his eyesight that’s failing; his brain seems to be faltering too.

Mu Ying ran away because of you.

To quote a human friend, this is just a lonely old man’s way of acting out to get attention!

The youngsters kept their mouths shut and listened, knowing they must never talk back, or it would turn into an endless tirade.

The most terrifying part was, Clan Leader Ned was not like the elderly humans; he could bring all of them down with just one hand.

Outspoken they weren’t, nor could they outperform him physically; they had no choice but to accept defeat.

The Half-Breed youngsters all sighed in unison.

Life is too hard.

Why did the world fusion come so quickly and without warning?

There was nowhere to hide!

“What’s with the sighing?

Are you already impatient?

Believe it or not, I’ll go and clear out all your possessions tonight,” Clan Leader Ned blew his beard.
