Chapter 677 - The Undead Rogue in Deathknell

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

At this moment, besides elves, dwarves were also considering which race they should choose, dwarves or gnomes, and which class they should choose.

Meanwhile, a new group of assassins came to the shop.

They were the assassins rescued by the newly-established Brotherhood from Stan Nation and other neighboring nations.

“Before the release of the new mystical realm, you guys can try Assassin’s Creed.” Harrison, Elina, and other senior members of the Brotherhood introduced them to Assassin’s Creed.

...

The new official website had introductions of various races, classes, and race leaders.

In the days before World of Warcraft was released, many players were talking about this.

– Lingyun Academy, the main road beside the martial arts field –

At this moment, some disciples were taking a break on a slope beside the main road after the combat technique class.

“Our class president plans to choose the Horde?” Xi Qi, a veteran player and Song Qingfeng’s classmate, looked at his communication jade in surprise. “No... I don’t see any race I like in the Horde!”

[Undead is a new race that I never played before. I want to try it,] Nalan Mingxue said in the group chat.

They had only seen necromancers in Diablo 2, and the only impression of undead that the players in the old shops got was that they were all skeletons.

However, Nalan Mingxue found that the Forsaken race was very special and wanted to try it.

[I heard that the Royal Clan Guild has chosen the human race, right?]

Nalan Mingxue said, [Yeah. They talked about it for a long time before making the decision. Shengjing Academy also chose the Alliance.]

[Okay! Okay! We must stick together. Let’s join the Horde.] Song Qingfeng said in the group chat, [I’ll play a Tauren since I’ve never played such a character before...]

...

“Commander, what should we choose?” a knight of the Golden Griffin Knight Legion asked.

“Without saying, we must choose the human race and be Paladins!” Commander Elven said proudly, “This name sounds lofty with the word ‘saint’ in it. I’m sure it’s the most powerful class!”

[TL Note: Paladin is called Saint Knight in Chinese.]

“Excellent decision, Commander!” The knight yelled, “I also think that knights with the word ‘saint’ in the title are super powerful!”

In his mind, the scenario where he battled against many opponents on his own appeared.

...

“Do you know why I came to this city?” At this moment, a dog-headed man walked into the shop. With his grey hair and mane meticulously combed, he wore a set of unique silver armor. The moment he entered the shop, his eyes widened. While looking around, he said in shock, “I’m surprised! Can you believe that this shop looks more high-end than the Lava Workshop and Dulan Workshop?”

“Before I came, I asked about it and heard that this is a representative shop for the East Continent. I heard that it’s going to release a new massive mystical realm that has something to do with us orcs. So, we are coming here to check it out.” With that said, he walked deeper into the shop with the bull-headed man.

“Um...? Isn’t that Mr. Dirk?!” Helen of the Golden Griffin Knight Legion was talking about the classes in the lounge area, and she suddenly turned her head.

Mr. Dirk was a famous rogue of the Orc Clan since he liked to record his travels with Spiritual Spell Visual Projection whenever he went to a new place. Of course, this was only his hobby since...

“No wonder Mr. Dirk hasn’t done any Spiritual Spell Visual Projection for the major workshops lately...” Helen said in a huff, “It’s because he came here!”

In the distant orc kingdom, some people could afford the projection crystals which could receive Spiritual Spell Visual Projections. Many people liked to watch the Spiritual Spell Visual Projections from the nearby Alchemist Union branches. Obviously, many people were watching this scene right now.

While Helen glared at him in frustration, this beast man went directly toward the counter.

Mr. Fang was sipping his Cappuccino when he heard someone knocking on the counter. Then, he saw the head of a Shiba Inu, and he asked, “Where did this dog...”

“Pu-!” Helen almost stumbled and dropped to the ground.

She almost walked up and told Mr. Fang that this man was an orc!

“Headed man?” Mr. Fang quickly reacted and added two more words after ‘dog’, calling this guest a dog-headed man.

“Two magic crystals per hour! The activation prices for the games are on the small blackboard...” While his face twitched, he thought, How come orcs look like this?

Then, he blinked and discovered that there was a bull beside the dog. “...”

However, with their appearances, Fang Qi finally completed his task.

[New Task: Cross-Era Masterpiece – World of Warcraft (Completed)

Task Target: 1. The reputation of the new shop reaches 100,000 people (Completed);

2. Players include people from other races such as elves, orcs, and dwarves (Completed)

Task Privilege: receive the original cinematic trailer, the right to design your own trailer, and the right to host small-scale events

Task Reward: Upgrade and combine the TV Series and Movie Cultivation Room and the Game Cultivation Room; ten-day access to the new cultivation room]

Fang Qi glanced at the system version of World of Warcraft that was the reward.

The system version of World of Warcraft costs 15 magic crystals or crystals for 1350 minutes, and 30 magic crystals or crystals could buy 2700 minutes, so on and so forth.

[New Task: Cross-Era Masterpiece Following Task 1: New Chapter, Burning Crusade (it can only be released after basic requirements are met)n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After the task is completed, the system will upgrade automatically. Then, the host can actively seek and meet the requirements for the update of other games.

After the upgrade, the shop can establish regional branch shops. The host can send employees to manage these branch shops.

With higher compatibility with the game characters, the host will get used to the characters faster.]

Mr. Fang froze. “We have such things?!”

Obviously, this was a must-do task. Although Mr. Fang now had the right to release World of Warcraft, he decided to release it tomorrow morning.

Meanwhile, the new shop had begun recruiting employees; he would need more than one employee. Since the business hours of the shop were increasing, two shifts were required even though three shifts weren’t necessary at the moment.

For the management of the shop, Mr. Fang pulled some people from the old shops. He decided to move Li Xin’er to here from Yuanyang City Shop first. Since Xiaoyue was coming to the new shop soon, he decided to let Li Lanruo come with her as well.

Meanwhile, some people had gotten the news from Mr. Fang.

“Tomorrow?!”

“World of Warcraft will be released tomorrow?!”

“My goodness! We haven’t decided which side to join yet!” The elves exclaimed.

Mr. Fang’s face darkened. “How many days have you been talking about it?!”

...

On the next day, the number of players in the shop were obviously larger than usual with dwarves, elves, mages, large groups of mercenaries, and new assassins all coming into the shop.

In fact, there were also many new players who had come to the shop from other cities after they got the news.

Mr. Dirk of the Orc Clan was one of them.

“My goodness!” Mr. Dirk came to the shop at 8 AM sharp and found that the entrance was crammed with people.

“So many people?!”

The elves had come very early and waited by the door, looking as if they were about to break into the shop.

“What’s wrong?!” One elf checked the time. “It’s only five minutes to eight! It’s still silent inside!”

“Sir! Get up!”

“What are you yelling about!” A figure hurried down the stairs inside the shop, looking groggy. Obviously, he had just gotten up from bed.

“Lazy shop owner.” Upon entering the shop, Elf Girl Sala gave Mr. Fang a dirty look.

Before she could finish, many people behind her swarmed up to the empty seats.

“Oh-! Quickly take seats!” Sala exclaimed and dashed to a nearby seat and plunked down as swiftly as a bunny!

Then, she gave Mr. Fang a disapproving look and said, “You get up at 8 o’clock each morning! How lazy you are! You can sleep to death if you want!”

It must be noted that these elves usually cultivated during the night and came out when the sky barely got bright again.

In Silver Moon Forest, early morning was the perfect time for everything. Even the fruits tasted the best in the early morning.

They were not like the scummy shop owner who slept until 8 AM when the sun was high up in the sky.

The elves had had heated discussions over the past couple of days about which side to join!

Finally, some elves decided to join the night elf race while others joined the Forsaken race led by Sylvanas.

With a free nature, the elves wanted to try different things to make better decisions.

“Ugh?” Sala saw Mr. Fang sitting down one seat away from her. “Don’t you need to keep an eye on the shop?”

Mr. Fang pointed in the direction of the counter where two girls suddenly appeared. “I moved two employees over from the old shops.”

“So that you can play the game?” Elf Girl Sala looked at him in disdain.

Sitting between them, Helen glanced at Mr. Fang’s screen and asked, “Sir, are you going to play as well?”

“Why not?” Mr. Fang pulled his computer chair closer to the desk and double clicked on the logo on the desktop.

While the game was loading, he picked up a bottle of Sprite and took a swig.

“Sir, what class are you choosing?”

With great familiarity, Mr. Fang chose the undead race and the rogue class, and he created the ID [Midnight Pig Butcher].

Then, he entered the game and finished the process in one breath.

At this moment, Mr. Fang appeared at the spawn spot, Deathknell, which was located on Azeroth.

The elves sitting nearby were still deliberating over which face looked better. In the system version, the players could do some adjustments to their faces, and the undead players could even adjust the degree of decay. Some players even complained that the Forsaken had withered faces, sounding like they weren’t here for the gameplay in World of Warcraft.

Helen glanced at Mr. Fang and found that he appeared in the game just as a skeleton.
