Gamers of the Underworld

Chapter 206: Preparation for Update

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Hemp Rope Technology was enlightened with the Power of Sacred Light, he tested the power and hammered a gamer who was sent flying. After that, the gamers started to like learning. Besides mathematics, the gamers also studied other subjects.

The Power of Sacred Light was different from Mana in that it couldn’t be controlled. The power was mainly used to strengthen one’s own body. A Goblin who could send a Gnome flying was very strong, at least in the eyes of the gamers.

After the Baptism, Beast talked to Hemp Rope Technology on the effects of the Sacred Light. The Power of Sacred Light wasn’t limited to the strengthening of bodies. Sherlock was on the discussion forum when he noticed Hemp Rope Technology’s post.

[Introducing the Sacred Light Profession—Sacred Knight!]

“My profession has been successfully converted to a Sacred Knight. The game officials haven’t announced this profession. According to Beast, the correct term was Grand Priest.

This name is too low profile, so I decided to call it Sacred Knight!

It sounds grander and more classy.

I will discuss the Sacred Knight’s profession, combat, and Daily Mission performance.

Let me make this clear, I have never participated in combat training. Even now, my Weapon Level is at 1.

Besides Daily Missions, I am able to do research.

After inventing the Bladder Bombs, I am very curious about the unlimited reality of the game physics engine. I have been thinking of creating a nuclear explosion. That is only an idea.

I didn’t expect a non-combat gamer like me to find suitable gameplay. That is the Power of Sacred Light! The greater my learning power and passion for learning, the greater my Power of Sacred Light.

According to Beast, my enlightenment of the Sacred Light was unprecedented. During the enlightenment, I felt myself standing on the shoulders of countless scientific geniuses. That feeling was mystical. Thank you ‘Dungeon’ for allowing me to interact spiritually with those geniuses.

I will explain the details of obtaining the Power of Sacred Light.

First, you have to create the chance for Baptism. The most practical way is to be the monthly top 100 gamers for construction missions. The top 100 gamers who complete the most construction missions for that month will receive a chance for Baptism.

The Baptism procedure is simple. Report to Beast, who will prepare a huge cauldron of water. After using the Sacred Light to bless the water, he will push your head into the water.

Do not struggle in the water as it is useless. Beast is very proficient. Once he grabbed the back of my skull, there was no way to struggle.

In the water, the ugliest and most honorable events in your life will flash by. Then, it’s answering the questions.

Everyone is able to perform this step. Beast told me discreetly that evil creatures who have skin ulcers on the soles will fail immediately. For example, our Sherlie wouldn’t even have the chance to do the questions.

I’m not sure why he’s so confident, but this may be a hidden Plot. Please take note. There may be a Strange Encounter Mission.

The next point is answering the questions.

After confirming that you’re not an evil creature that is beyond hope, you will be given a chance to do the questions, which cover all the things that you have learned.

Because I collated the questions that the other gamers and I had, I discovered that the questions weren’t standardized. They were taken from all your knowledge.

I feel that the test isn’t about how good your knowledge is but your passion for learning and your grasp on your understanding. To make it simple, if you have good learning habits, your chance of passing the test will increase tremendously.

Do not chase after the answers to difficult questions. It’s the attitude! That is the key!

Even if you’re a moron, if you have a passionate and open heart for learning, you will obtain the Power of Sacred Light! Those were Beast’s words.

I feel that it is similar to the encouragement given by the teachers. In fact, if you are passionate about learning, with a human intellect, obtaining a high grade is quite easy.

The higher the examination score, the greater the Power of Sacred Light.

The third point is the combat effects of Sacred Light. I calculated carefully. My strength and reaction speed increased five times within a short period of time. I am still unable to maintain the Power of Sacred Light for a long period. I can only maintain the Sacred Light for about three minutes, and that is considered impressive.

Only learning will improve productivity!

Students, please revise all your textbooks and exercise books. Don’t depend on luck. You will be tested on all your previous knowledge!

In addition, classes are available in the discussion forum and in the game...”

Sherlock closed the page containing the post. They were too decadent. What more could be said?

“Lord Sherlock, your strategy is successful. Is the power of the Holy Lord that strong? Can a creature obtain such strong power just after Baptism?” Bru asked thoughtfully.

“No. I haven’t seen Hemp Rope Technology’s Power of Sacred Light before.” Sherlock shook his head and said, “I don’t understand the situation of the Surface World since I haven’t been up there for a long time.”

Eggface opened the door to the room and walked in.

As Sherlock’s secretary, Eggface had never learned to knock on the door.

“It’s terrible outside. Oh my God, a Goblin is filled with Sacred Light...” Eggface muttered as he struggled to move his fat and short legs. He walked to the counter and searched for a long time. He was taken aback and looked at Sherlock as he asked, “Where’s my bloody chrysanthemum tea?”

Sherlock stood up, grabbed Eggface’s wings, opened the door, and threw him out.

“Good, it’s quiet now.” Sherlock sat down and accessed the discussion forum. Then he typed furiously on the keyboard.

“It’s time for a new update.”

After working for half a day, he completed his latest update. He checked the contents carefully before publishing it.
