Dark Eldar

Loki's legendary weapon, the "Mjolnir," has been stuck at a proficiency level of below 199987 during recent monster-slaying attempts. No matter how many armored giants Loki kills, his proficiency seems to have reached a bottleneck, unable to break through the 20 mark.

As the 30 update patch has been released gradually, it has been clearly stated that various equipment and artifacts have not been significantly nerfed. In particular, artifacts have been specifically mentioned as being able to refresh their value based on the wielder's hero's latest level (a minor adjustment. Loki is secretly pleased!).

"If it really gets downgraded, there's nothing we can do about it. But the Creator's Hammer has limitless power. Even if it becomes a level 1 item, it can still be used as a forging hammer..." In the early stages, Loki had already made two preparations for his expectations of his artifact.

But the new problems that have arisen force Loki to desperately try to overcome them and strive for even greater progress...

The "New Baolong Hotel" (831331) on the Bitter Plains has some connection with the Dragon Clan. Rumor has it that a certain Dragon Clan leader is their major shareholder. At this moment, the hotel is bustling with activity, filled with the sounds of cooking fires and singing and dancing—the heroes' feast is about to begin! Loki has already arrived and successfully registered. He is generally never late or stands someone up. ("Self-Discipline Master," blue title; acquisition conditions: 10 or more punctual attendances, or dueling in PvP)

Yunita (female, level 458, class: Warlock) personally greets everyone at the entrance! Heroes not invited by her cannot enter for free, unless... unless they pay 35G as an entrance fee. Yunita's "business acumen" is quite shrewd. First, she spends a small amount to secure the venue, then earns extra gold. But if the event isn't popular enough that night, or if her charm and looks aren't enough, and the number of participants doesn't meet expectations? Then she'll lose money.

"Why? Why can't we go in?"

An orc warrior was shouting outside the door. He had come here intending to drink and relax, but upon seeing the "Private" sign, he suddenly became extremely angry. He felt his "rights" had been violated. If he went to another map to drink and relax, the time spent on the journey and the coupons in his inventory might be wasted, so he desperately wanted to break in.

Loki, the sorcerer, sat elegantly on a leather sofa in the lobby, observing the situation inside and outside the hotel through the floor-to-ceiling glass doors. The raucous shouts of the ferocious orcs seemed to embolden the other heroes who wanted to enter.

"Exactly! Exactly! If it doesn't work, we'll just force our way in! Why should she get to control everything?!" The speaker was an unknown mutant (level 376. He belonged to a new race, the kind that gets you a roll, and because he wasn't particularly good-looking and lacked imposing presence, he didn't become popular back then).

Soon, about 20 heroes gathered outside, wanting to eat for free.

"Excuse me, but the reading feast—a vast collection of books and an unparalleled experience—is something I've already booked, guys." The beautiful sorceress, Unita, was very polite. She wanted to quell the anger of the heroes outside the arena by backing down or explaining herself properly.

Inside, the sisters invited by Unita and the graceful female heroes stationed there all seemed to know Unita SS. They were whispering among themselves at the bar. Because they were generally low-level and looked quite young, they all appeared particularly timid and fearful. Some were holding unfinished crystal goblets, while others were clutching plush toys (BB, which could transform)—clearly, they were "little girls."

"Shall we go help Unita?"

"You? There are several level 500+ casual players outside. If we all go at you together, you'll either be sent to your death or crippled. Besides, if they come and don't pay, we can't pour them drinks..."

The young girls were mostly around level 200, and it was unclear who had escorted them to the new map. There were thieves, rogues, warlocks, and mages, but their costumes were all uniformly sexy and avant-garde, some even wearing "maid outfits." This was a complete "overturning" of their combat hero appearances. Perhaps they would look different in combat, but for now, they all resembled "petite girls" or "bar girls." Loki understood they wanted to earn extra money. Similar side professions existed in other maps before, where "order" wasn't officially defined, much like the underground merchants known as "goblins." While buying and selling at the auction house was legal, all black market transactions were illegal, yet for centuries they had relied on this method of "buying and selling."

Yunita, a level 458 sorceress, was once Loki's classmate. Back in their introductory class in another world, Yunita was eliminated because she didn't want to renew her VIP1 subscription due to "financial" reasons. But now, through continuous effort, Yunita has caught up rapidly in terms of level.

"Given her abilities as a sorcerer, she should have some combat power," Loki guessed.

优妮塔见对方近20位英雄不想付钱，便改口说「30G2位」。但不知为何？叫嚣的500兽人还是吝啬。理论上15G对500LV英雄而言，简直是毛毛雨。可能暴躁兽人战士为了面子，他真的堪称「铁公鸡」一枚啊且一毛不拔。

"Sorry, as a woman, I have my principles. Don't blame me for being impolite if you keep arguing like this!" Seeing the other party bullying her like this, the sorceress Yunita was truly angry!

"Let's fight! Who's afraid of who!!" Several level 500 random heroes were eager to try! They actually wanted to "go all in" and KO Yunita... If no priest resurrected her within the time limit? They could also "rob" the good equipment she dropped. (Note: This is the dark side of the story.)
