The Fourth Calamity: Starting with Dungeon Slimes

Immediately afterwards, Lilith rushed to Feng Xiaoxiao's side to confirm carefully.

"You...you weren't dead?"

Lilith looked at Feng Xiaoxiao with some disbelief.

The result, however, was a look of displeasure from Feng Xiaoxiao: "Go away! You're the one who's dead, your whole family is dead."

"I regretted saving you back then, and the contract didn't go through. Now you're cursing me to die... Get out of here, don't block my way from collecting gold coins."

Looking at Feng Xiaoxiao's impatient face, Lilith's mind was a little blank.

"Jiang Chen! Jiang Chen!"

As she spoke, Lilith jogged over to Jiang Chen's side and pointed at Feng Xiaoxiao.

However, Lilith then saw several familiar figures among the group of Pata, such as that wretched Bubble Dragon.

Lilith's mouth opened slightly.

"Jiang Chen, what's going on? Why are these 'Pada' things still... even though they're clearly dead?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at her in annoyance.

"It's just being brought back to life, what's the big deal?"

"What's so surprising about someone coming back to life?" Lilith's mind was a little confused. Was coming back to life such a common thing?

"What do you mean by 'trivial'?!"

"Jiang Chen, how did you do that?!"

"But how could this be! The god who controls death would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen!"

Seeing Lilith's startled reaction, Jiang Chen was speechless for a moment, but after thinking about it, he decided to give her a brief explanation.

"Actually, it's not exactly a resurrection. We Pata have an ability called splitting and regenerating."

Upon hearing this, Lilith nodded; she was aware of this ability.

"It's simple. We just need to cut off a small piece of flesh from ourselves before leaving the station, leave it there, and then when we die in battle, that piece of flesh will split and regenerate into a new 'pata,' right?"

Hearing this, Lilith felt a little confused.

"Can this ability really be used like this?"

"No! Absolutely impossible!"

"Why not? This is our ability. You're not Pata, you don't understand."

Jiang Chen was too lazy to explain further. The reason he was explaining was because if Lilith mistakenly believed that he had the ability to resurrect the dead, she might become reckless and go out to do stupid things, which would be embarrassing if she ended up getting herself killed.

It was for this reason that Jiang Chen decided to remind her.

After leaving Lilith completely bewildered, Jiang Chen announced another important piece of news.

"Dear friends, I know you're all very excited right now, but I have some big news to share with you all."

As Jiang Chen finished speaking, the players quieted down, waiting for him to continue.

"The previous battle caused us heavy losses. I also reviewed that battle and found that we had many shortcomings."

"First, there is a lack of high-end combat power, which is something we cannot change. However, we can make up for this deficiency by manufacturing war weapons similar to the Mirage Tank. Therefore, starting today, I have decided to launch the war weapons program."

"From now on, everyone can participate in this month-long war weapons program."

"During this month, everyone can devote themselves to developing and manufacturing various weapons of war."

"These weapons of war will be ranked according to their strength, and the top three will receive generous rewards of 1 gold coins, 9000 gold coins, and 8000 gold coins respectively."

"Of course, it is worth considering that not everyone has the talent to manufacture weapons in the war weapons program."

"So I launched another plan, which is the large-scale mining plan!"

"From today onwards, I will purchase without limit any magic crystals, rare herbs, or other valuable items that my brothers gather."

"If you find something important but can't assess its value enough to bring it back, I will evaluate it and decide whether to acquire it."

"The same period lasts for one month. During this month, no matter how much supplies everyone collects, I will buy them all."

As Jiang Chen finished speaking, the players erupted in uproar.

These two large side quests are clearly open to all players.

This greatly excited the players, as everyone could choose different tasks based on their own circumstances.

While the rewards for the War Weapons Program are generous, its biggest problem is that it requires an extremely high level of expertise.

The mining plan is quite simple; as long as you grind for a long enough time, you will have a very stable income.

After announcing these things, Jiang Chen left.

Jiang Chen was in a great mood at the moment. With the gold coins, he found it very convenient to do many things.

Jiang Chen had never gotten much gold from the Earth Dragon before, and even when it came to quest rewards, he was very stingy.

Now that I have so many gold coins, I can easily distribute the mission rewards.

As for inflation and the purchasing power of currency, Jiang Chen wasn't worried at all. As long as the Demon Wolf Clan and the Bloodthirsty Lizard Clan got things moving, plus the magical items he had, recycling these gold coins would be too easy.

There's absolutely no need to worry about having gold coins but not being able to buy anything.

Furthermore, to be on the safe side, Jiang Chen also initiated a large-scale collection mission.

This mission serves two purposes: firstly, to replenish our own combat supplies, and secondly, to prepare for the recycling of gold coins in Jiangcheng. Players only need to process the items they collect and then sell them back to other players to earn the price difference.

Previously, it was difficult for Jiang Chen to process these things by himself, but now that he has the Bloodthirsty Lizard Clan and the Demon Wolf Clan, Jiang Chen can naturally consider hiring them to help.

Although both races have become subordinate races to Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen is not the kind of person who only knows how to exploit them.

If you exploit people too much, no one will be willing to genuinely help you.

.......

After Jiang Chen left, the group of players gathered together and began to discuss their plans.

"Hey Salty Fish, what's up? Are you planning to make another Phantom Tank?" a player asked Salty Fish.

Salty fish shook its head at this.

"I'm done. I finally built this tank, and the boss wiped it out in three hits. If I keep going, I'll be a pig."

"And didn't you guys notice? In the previous battle, when the boss was fighting the NPC, the NPC had a bunch of buffs on him, and even after the boss hit him a few times, the NPC was completely unharmed."

"In other words, the things we've developed at such a high cost are not as useful as NPC magic. In my opinion, it's basically unrealistic to create good weapons of war."

The crowd largely agreed with what the salted fish said.

They had witnessed everything during the previous battles.

The Phantom Tank, which was thought to be incredibly sturdy, was easily destroyed, while the NPC managed to block several attacks with magic.

This has led many players to lose hope of creating so-called modern weapons in this magical world.
