Gamers of the Underworld Chapter 555

Moroes held two worms in his hands . The worms had the numbers “8” and “9” on them .

 They were large numbers . To have such large numbers, it was considered a winning situation .

 What if the other player had a double “9”?

 Moroes pondered over this possibility . He tried to recall the number of times the number “9” had appeared . In a game, the number “9” could only appear four times .

 Did the number appear once or twice?

 Sweat dripped from the forehead of Moroes . He had become very nervous .

 “Moroes, why are you so slow?”

 “Hurry up . ”

 “Yes, yes . Put out your worms . ”

 The three Sludge Monsters tried to cajole Moroes into putting out his worms .

 Moroes lifted his head . He wanted to rebuke the Sludge Monsters, but he noticed the Short Sword and Shield placed outside the sentry post .

 He recalled the divorce with his wife, the extreme anguish, and the need to prove himself and challenge Mammon…

 Memories flooded Moroes' mind . He recalled why he had come here…

 “Eight! Nine!”

 Moroes threw out the two worms, and he smiled victoriously . However, a Sludge Monster also smiled victoriously and trembled with excitement .

 It was easy to recognize when a Sludge Monster was trembling .

 “Nine! Nine!”

 The Sludge Monster placed two of his worms down . The other Sludge Monsters looked on with disappointment and threw down their worms .

 Moroes had to throw down the worms on the table since they would be the winner's loot .

 “Actually, my wife just divorced me…” Moroes said sadly while the winning Sludge Monster shoved all of the worms into his mouth .

 The winner then waved his tentacles and said, “Don't say anymore . Let's have another round!”

 “Great!” Moroes said excitedly .

 A few gamers stood outside the sentry post and looked at Moroes as they chatted .

 “Is there a Strange Encounter Mission? Why are they playing for so long?”

 “This must be the 'Dungeon' version of the Gwent Witcher card game . His wife left? No problem, they're playing another round . ”

“Let's go . This Moroes is useless . He has no missions for us . It's better to work at the construction site . The salary is two Magic Stones per day!”

 “We don't earn all of the Magic Stones, as the system will tax half our proceeds . ”

 “That's good enough . The salary for working at the crossroad intersection outpost is only one Magic Stone per three days . ”

 “But we have to queue here, and they only allow 1,000 gamers . I wonder, when will it be our turn?”

 The gamers chatted as they walked towards the construction site to register for work . Their chances were low since tens of thousands of gamers had registered . The rest of the gamers didn't manage to register, because the Teleport Portal was packed with gamers . There was a long queue stretching all the way in Eternal Kingdom .

 Patrick Star stood outside the farm boundary . He could see Goblins from Eternal Kingdom all around . Occasionally, there were some Gnomes, Houndhead Men, or Orcs . However, their numbers were much fewer than that of the Goblins .

 He heard that the warriors of Eternal Kingdom were going to fight against the evil Devil King Mammon, who had invaded the farm . To Patrick Star, it was Lord Sherlock who was going to deal with Devil King Mammon .

 How could the Goblins have the courage to fight against Mammon? Only a powerful superior Devil could have the courage . The warriors must have received the order from Lord Sherlock to come here .

 Patrick Star was curious to know the future development . He thought that there was going to be bloodshed, but things turned out different from what he expected .

 The warriors of Eternal Kingdom were bribed into submission .

 Though it was called “temporary work” and had a pay of two Magic Stones per day, everyone could see that the invaders of the farm were afraid of the large number of warriors from Eternal Kingdom . Hence, they used a high salary to bribe the warriors of Eternal Kingdom, and the brave warriors agreed .

 Patrick Star observed that the warriors didn't hesitate to accept the high-paying job . They picked up the tools and started working diligently .

 After the Teleport Portal was constructed, countless Goblins came out and occupied most of the outer boundary of the construction site . Then they queued up to register for work, collecting their safety helmets and uniforms before starting work .

 There was a long queue of people waiting to work at the construction site .

 What was the work at the construction site like? Patrick Star thought that he wouldn't be allowed to go in and have a look . He was a reporter and part of the mass media . If the invader was Devil King Mammon, it would be big news . Even if it was the Seventh Devil King, Mammon, the Devil Management Committee and the Unions wouldn't let him off .

 Times had changed .

 According to news from Eternal Kingdom, Devil King Mammon was going after the treasure hidden underneath the farm . If that was true, the treasure would be considerably large to require so many workers . Devil King Mammon wouldn't allow reporters to go inside in case the truth was divulged .

 That was what Patrick Star thought until the Werewolf manager invited him inside for interviews . The Werewolf manager said, “Our intention is to create a large theme park . Why are there so many creatures here? Why are the reporters here? Are the creatures from Eternal Kingdom? I've heard of them…”

 “Are they really building a large theme park?” Patrick Star was in disbelief until he entered the construction site and examined a comprehensive document .

 “We are a company that follows the rules and regulations . How can we invade another creature's land? We negotiated with the Gnomes before purchasing the farm at a high price . Take a look at our Land Lease Agreement . ”

 The Werewolf manager took out the agreement after he got to know the intention of the reporters . There was a hand signature on the agreement .

 The hand signature looked like the palm of a Gnome .

 Patrick Star pondered hard . Could all these misunderstandings be the mischief of that Gnome?
