Gamers of the Underworld

At the Winterfell Teleport Portal Main Hall, Onionhead stood at the newly functional Teleport Portal and bade farewell to the new Dungeon Lord, Andrew.

The Winterfell Dungeon Core didn’t meet with any mishap as it was escorted by a large elite security contingent to Winterfell. The Dungeon Core provided the daily Mana required to run this neutral Dungeon of the Merchant Alliance.

“Lord Andrew, I’m leaving. I’m handing over Winterfell to you.”

Andrew smiled and replied, “Don’t worry, Judge Onionhead.”

As the third successor to Eternal Fire, Andrew was able to be the Winterfell Dungeon Lord because he invested a large sum of money. Even the Dungeon Core was bought by him.

What could Onionhead possibly say?

Onionhead and his elderly Orc attendant walked through the Teleport Portal. Onionhead glanced at the Dungeon for the last time before he vanished into the portal.

…

Though Andrew looked young, he was an ambitious superior Devil. After becoming the new Dungeon Lord, he made a revolutionary new plan.

Number One: His daily breakfast changed from fresh mud mixed with smelly worms to toasted worm in mud soup.

Number Two: In the Dungeon Lord Main Hall, females weren’t allowed to wear skirts shorter than the knees. The official recommendation was long pants.

Number Three: Everyone had to greet Andrew as “The Great Dungeon Lord Baron Andrew.”

And other miscellaneous changes.

While Andrew was dealing with the daily affairs of Winterfell, the Gnome Marco Polo had obtained the licenses for business trading and commissioning of missions at the Winterfell Commerce Unit.

A new update patch was released on the official website of “Dungeon: Eternal Kingdom”.

After the announcement was published, the gamers informed each other and ran to the Dungeon Lord Main Hall noisily.

Eggface placed a small table at the entrance of the hall. The table had a card reading device. Eggface wore a pair of spectacles and a working suit. He sat on the ground and shouted, “Queue up and pay money. To join the Adventurer’s Guild, pay ten silver coins!”

Though the price was high, after joining the Guild, it was like free entry into Winterfell. Moreover, the gamers could accept missions at the Guild to earn Magic Stones! The Magic Stones seemed to be more precious than the game currency and could be used to purchase items from NPCs.

The queue became very long. Sherlock was relieved to see the gamers’ enthusiasm.

After the gamers paid up, they each received an application form for the Eternal Kingdom Adventurer’s Guild. After completing the form according to Eggface’s example, they could enter Winterfell.

The gamers rushed to visit Winterfell…
