Chapter 76 Nightlife of the Northern People
“A-choo!”
The dean was sitting at his desk when he suddenly sneezed, startling a middle-aged magic teacher in front of him.
"Dean, are you feeling unwell?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I just feel like someone is thinking about me from behind."
The dean waved his hand and said with a smile, "It might be that little girl Alia. She has been away from Thorn Flower for a while. Maybe she misses home."
The dean lazily flipped through the parchment on the desk and asked without raising his head, "By the way, is there anything you want to talk to me about today?"
"It's about the North."
"Oh, has Arya reached the North? Is she safe?"
"She should be safe, but the entire North doesn't seem to be safe."
"What's the meaning?"
"The North has been lost. Thousands of temple knights and archbishops in the Northern City have been killed. Now the master of the Northern City is a group of undead summoners, and there are tens of thousands of undead of various types."
"oh?"
The dean was stunned and speechless for a long time. He raised his head and glanced at the middle-aged .
"Andrew, I remember that we cancelled the Undead Course. It should have been nearly six hundred years since then, right?"
"Yes, six hundred and thirty-one years ago, the Thorn Flower Magic Academy cancelled the Undead Magic course."
"Then can you tell me where these necromancers and undead came from?"
"I don't know either."
Andrew shook his head, his expression full of sorrow: "Master Dean, now that I know about this matter, the temple must have known about it as well."
"I am very worried now. The temple may misunderstand this matter and think that our magic academy is causing trouble."
"After all, among all the magic schools in the entire Esk Continent, only our Thorn Flower Magic School has ever offered a course on undead magic."
"Even if these undead summoners are not from our Thorn Flower Magic Academy, they must have obtained and learned the undead magic that spread from our academy in some way."
In the entire Esk continent, only the Thorn Flower Magic Academy has the specific knowledge of undead magic.
This means that all the undead magicians in the entire Esk continent can naturally be considered disciples of the Thorn Flower Magic Academy.
"You've already said that only we have the ability to train undead summoners. Regardless of whether it's a misunderstanding or not, the temple will think that we sent people to attack the North."
The dean spread his hands and said indifferently: "Anyway, it's just a misunderstanding. It has been misunderstood many times anyway."
"So what should we do now, Dean?"
Andrew asked: "The Undead Summoner in the North may be related to us..."
"I'm hungry!"
The dean touched his belly, his white beard trembling, and said with a smile: "I think we should have afternoon tea before discussing what to do next. Andrew, what do you think?"
Andrew was stunned, and nodded helplessly: "As you wish, Dean, I will prepare afternoon tea now."
The dean obviously doesn't want to interfere in the affairs of the North.
Anyway, this group of undead summoners are not our own, so let the temple confront them and make corresponding plans and responses based on the specific situation.
To remain constant in the face of ever-changing situations has always been the dean's strategic approach in dealing with various provocations and demonstrations from the temple.
"It seems that the misunderstanding has become bigger."
Xu Xiaofan observed the scene and content of the conversation between the dean and Andrew through the aura of the magic academy left by the original divine system of I Love Berserker.
He couldn't help but sigh: "What kind of thing is this? A believer of the God of Death is actually considered a disciple of the Thorn Flower Magic Academy."
"I feel really uneasy that the Thorn Flower School of Magic has to take the blame for no reason."
Xu Xiaofan sighed and lowered his head in thought.
"In any case, the Temple should have learned about the fall of the North. According to the Temple's long-standing strong attitude, there will definitely be a fierce offensive against the Northern City next."
"If we only rely on the current strength of the players, it will probably be difficult to defend the Northern City. After all, the Temple is a long-standing strength in the Esk Continent, with a solid foundation and rich heritage."
"Players have only been here for a few months, so there is no way they can beat those old perverts in the Temple. This is not a gap that can be made up by individual gaming skills and cooperation between players."
"I have to find a way to win over the Thorn Flower Magic Academy. Only magicians from the academy can help the players balance the temple, allowing the players to develop rapidly in the cracks."
Xu Xiaofan's ideas and plans are great, but the old dean doesn't seem to care much about things in the North.
The North occupies almost a quarter of the Lion Empire, and the City of the North is the core area of the entire North! It is related to the lifeblood of the entire North!
The City in the North is gone now, but the old dean doesn't care at all.
Look at this old man's attitude. Is this the attitude a citizen of the Lion Empire should have?
It was time to eat and drink, as if even the falling sky could not stop him from enjoying a delicious afternoon tea.
I won't watch it anymore, it's really infuriating.
Xu Xiaofan closed the screen from the Godhead system and muttered to himself, "No, this old man is not very powerful. I have to find a way to stimulate him."
…
The city in the north.
The sky had just fallen dark when the moon slowly climbed up into the sky, and along with the twinkling stars, it was surveying the land.
During the period of the Temple's occupation, a curfew was enforced in the Northern City. After dark, residents were not allowed to go out on the streets and no entertainment activities were allowed.
According to the adventurers in the Adventurer's Tavern, even during the worst period, it was forbidden for residents to perform the love clapping movement!
Because the sound is too loud and it is offensive to the sanctity.
The whole city, at night, was like a dead city. There were only Temple Knights and patrols on the streets, no one else could be seen.
Whenever there was a house with lights on in the city, guards would come to check.
In the entire city, only the Adventurer's Tavern and the Magician's Guild dare to carry out activities at night.
But since the undead moved into the Northern City, the curfew was cancelled by Xu Ercong.
"People in the North have the right to enjoy a joyful night time!"
"We will lead the people of the North and start a new nightlife!"
This is Xu Ercong's task guidance for the players as the city lord, and it is also the first government policy he issued.
Players naturally don't like curfews, after all, many of them are night owls.
If there is a curfew, what else can they do besides playing games online at night?
Is it possible to fall asleep in the game?
Every night, the Northern City is filled with players.
Many players also took advantage of the city lord's policy of lifting the curfew to deceive NPCs into believing in the benefits of believing in the god of death.
"Death never prohibits entertainment! Because of fraternity and tolerance."
"The sea embraces all rivers, and tolerance is greatness! There are no hard and fast rules for believing in the God of Death. We are the guardians of love and peace!"
"Wait, brothers, don't you think this is a bit too much? Love and peace have been brought up, so our Death God camp, strictly speaking, should be the villain, right?"
"Who cares? These NPCs don't understand anyway. Besides, the Death Boss didn't tell us what the rules of our camp are."
"Our Lord of Death is open-minded. He is not like that old dog Lord of Light who has so many rules. If freedom is also a kind of evil, then please let me sin more and never reincarnate again!"
But perhaps because people were used to the temple's curfew rules, the whole city was still dead silent in the few days before Xu Ercong lifted the curfew.
At night, it is so quiet that it makes people uneasy.
It would be really difficult for these NPCs to provide some entertainment activities at night.
In a fantasy world without ifi, mobile phones, or computer games, people's greatest pleasure is to study magic, practice fighting, go to the tavern for a drink, or stay at home and applaud with their wives.
If you are a poor bachelor who can't even afford to drink, you can only stay in bed and sleep until dawn.
"How can this be possible!"
"Life at night is the richest!"
Some players stood up.
After a few daring players tried it, they found that the entertainment activities from Earth could greatly stimulate the curiosity of these NPCs and make them like them more.
It can even promote and improve NPCs' level of belief in the God of Death!
How can this be!
The faith level of NPCs is related to the progress of their public tasks!
Apart from other public tasks, the level 25 blue suit is a must-have!
You should know that in the current player circle, players who have a single piece of blue equipment are all big shots, not to mention a complete set of high-level suits!
In order to better complete public tasks and to promote friendly relations between players and NPCs, players are all working hard.
All kinds of tricks are used.
Things like Northern Square Dance, Pub Rap Group, Chess, Chinese Chess, Go, Gobang, Senior Activity Center, NPC Youth Blind Date, etc.
There are all kinds of things, all kinds of things you can think of, just do it!
"The Wild Wolf Disco Square Dance Skeleton Boys Group has been officially established and is now recruiting! All NPC uncles, aunts, ladies and boys are welcome to participate! Let us shout out our passion and sing out our dreams!"
"The most handsome vampire in the city will teach you the most novel dance addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Let's shake it up!"
"Little girls, shout with your sister, pay attention to the rhythm! Little ball, banana pear, horse lotus blooms twenty-one..."
Today, every corner of the city in the North is brightly lit.
Regardless of gender, age or status, everyone, under the guidance of the undead, comes into contact with new things that they have never seen or played before, which greatly enriches the lonely hearts of the NPCs and fills their spiritual life.
Similarly, this also greatly promoted and improved the northern residents' favorability towards the undead.
Adventurer's Tavern.
"I'm telling you, Brother Aotian, I think no magician in the world is as awesome as you guys!"
The tavern owner was a little tongue-tied. He held the barley beer in one hand and hugged Long Aotian with the other, stammering, "Look, the undead you summoned are all talented!"
"You can talk and play! I really like you undeads, and you, the undead summoner!"
"What a shitty temple. They lie to me every day, saying that the undead are evil beings."
"I suspect that the temple knew that the undead were so interesting and wanted to hide and play with them secretly, so they lied to us and said that the undead were evil."
The words of the tavern owner won the approval of countless adventurers: "Yes! Uncle Boss is right!"
"The Temple is so mean that it won't let us make friends with the dead!"
"Uncle Boya! If I had known the undead were so interesting, I should have made friends with them a long time ago!"
"Yeah, look at these things that Brother Aotian brought. I heard that these are popular things in the world of the dead."
"Dice, finger-guessing, bragging, playing cards, oh my god! I really didn't know the world of the dead was so exciting. I want to be a dead person!"
Hearing the adventurers' approval and agreement, Long Aotian sneered and pushed away the tavern owner's arm and hand.
"Don't give me all this nonsense, are you going to scream or not?"
"What are you shouting?"
The tavern owner Boya opened his eyes and looked at Long Aotian with drunken eyes, his face full of confusion and bewilderment.
Brother Aotian, he looks a little angry.
