The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe Chapter 44: Make My Voice Heard

"Is this the thing?"

Before long, Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching dug out a piece of sand from the sea, glistening and shimring faintly with a purple glow.

The other players saw this and quickly gathered around to observe the sand closely.

Soon, everyone confird that this was indeed what Mage Fang Ka had ntioned.

Mr. Zhou spoke up: "Diamonds, should we continue sifting through here while you go inform the other players?"

Hand Rubbing Diamonds nodded: "Sure, you guys keep sifting, I’ll go notify them."

Hand Rubbing Diamonds clapped his hands, brushing off the ordinary sand, and then turned back along the original path.

In less than half an hour, a bunch of players ca running over, spread out along the beach, and started sifting sand.

So players held wooden buckets, clearly intending to store the Purple Water Sand.

So Mr. Zhou handed over the Purple Water Sand they had found earlier to be put into the wooden buckets.

This stuff wasn’t easy to find, and so far, Mr. Zhou and the others had only found half a handful.

Luckily, with a larger number of players, efficiency improved a bit.

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching scooped up a handful of sand, carefully sifted through it, and brought up a topic: "When do you think we’ll be able to leave the island?"

"I’m quite curious what’s outside this Newbie Island."

"Maybe there’s a faction opposing the Necromancer? Maybe there’s lots of battles to fight? Just thinking about it gets excited."

Mr. Zhou paused his actions upon hearing this: "It seems possible, considering we’re starting with the Undead."

"I wonder if there are players who start as humans?"

Sea Flip imdiately retorted: "I don’t think so. That dog developer clearly did it on purpose to prevent so sneaky players, but there’s one thing I disagree with."

"He shouldn’t guard against a gentleman like ! How could he catch up with the sa net? How is that fair?"

Mr. Zhou shook his head: "Isn’t it possible that it’s precisely to guard against people like you?"

Sea Flip glared at Mr. Zhou: "Brother Zhou, you’re slandering ! Careful, I’ll sue you for defamation."

Hand Rubbing Diamonds glanced at them with so exasperation, then said lightly: "Let’s not worry about that for now; for now, let’s consider how to activate the hidden dungeon that I discovered with Mr. Qian."

"If we can’t even activate the hidden dungeon, dreaming of leaving the island is just daydreaming, isn’t it?"

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching was imdiately intrigued, he picked out a few grains of Purple Water Sand, and said: "What do you think might be inside that hidden dungeon?"

Mr. Zhou’s eyes rotated around: "That depends on the dog developer’s taste."

"Personally, I wouldn’t mind sothing cliché, like a princess imprisoned by monsters; rescuing her would give us sothing nice to look at every day."

Sea Flip instantly retorted: "You’ve been playing this ga long enough to know the dog developer’s taste can’t be that low tier."

"If you ask , maybe there’s a hundred beauties captured by a useless old monster to serve as maids, and after we kill the monster, the hundred beauties beco our maids."

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching looked at Sea Flip speechlessly: "You should spend more ti honing your bones."

Mr. Zhou nodded in agreent: "Exactly, even if you had a hundred NPC maids, what could you do? Nothing much, except drool a lot... wait, you can’t even manage that."

Sea Flip’s skeleton hand trembled slightly: "I can’t keep up with this conversation, guys."

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching tossed the selected Purple Water Sand into the nearby wooden bucket, then washed off the sandy residue: "Let’s get to work, pretty skeletons are just that, you should focus on becoming stronger and cooler, maybe get yourself a snazzy set of armor."

"Don’t let won slow down your sword-drawing speed."

Sea Flip nodded heavily: "Is this the wisdom of the bone-touching grandpa? I’ve realized it, but I still think NPC sisters are more attractive."

"That dog developer, no pretty NPC sisters on the island is just absurd. I must raise my voice and make the dog developer hear."

Iron Black Pot ca closer, patting Sea Flip on the shoulder: "I support you, but be careful not to get banned in the coffin by the dog developer."

Sea Flip reached up to the sky: "Even if I’m locked in a coffin, I’ll knock on the coffin to play my own requiem ’We need NPC sisters’."

Iron Black Pot gave a thumbs up: "I respect you as a man."

All the players worked for a few hours, and midway another player leveled up to Level 2 and joined them.

Thus, efficiency kept increasing.

Ten hours later, eight wooden buckets were filled to 70% capacity.

This was the result of players shifting positions several tis on the beach to gather.

By now, there were only a few players left who hadn’t reached Level 2, but they were close.

Mr. Zhou thought that these Purple Water Sands should be enough for now.

So he discussed with the other players and decided to take half of the players and these Purple Water Sands to attempt crafting the Fire Crystal Furnace.

The other players continued gathering Purple Water Sand at the beach.

According to Mr. Zhou’s plan, they would definitely craft multiple furnaces, not just one.

So the more Purple Water Sand, the better.

No player objected to this decision, so it was settled.

Mr. Zhou led half the players and the Purple Water Sand back to where the Fire Crystals were kept.

Then, he took out a Fire Crystal and a grain of Purple Water Sand to test it.

Sure enough, they reacted violently, and the piece of Purple Water Sand disappeared quickly, leaving a deep pit on the Fire Crystal.

Seeing this, Mr. Zhou was finally relieved.

Mage Fang Ka was indeed reliable.

Mr. Zhou picked up a branch and drew a sketch on the ground.

"Based on the experience from our previous furnace experint, I’ve decided to make so adjustnts to the furnace."

"When crafting a furnace with Fire Crystals, I plan to use Purple Water Sand to modify the shape of the Fire Crystals and assemble the Fire Crystal Furnace using mortise-and-tenon joints."

"This way, it’ll be sturdy and safe, while also adaptable to high temperatures and pressure, ensuring high iron output efficiency. What do you all think?"

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching pointed at the sketch: "I can’t fully understand it, but I’ve seen you get quite creative with mortise-and-tenon joints during house building, so if you say it’s feasible, I believe it."
