Minecraft players are invading the worlds.

Without any hesitation, Xu Tian reached out and clicked the "Yes" button that was floating in mid-air.

Then.

Suddenly, an unprecedented burst of light erupted throughout the entire abandoned school instance space.

This light is filled with sacred and purifying power.

"Ding!"

A server-wide red announcement instantly popped up at the top of every player's screen.

[Server-wide announcement: Congratulations to the [Zhutian Guild] for successfully occupying and purifying the "Monster Hunter Adventure - Area Number xp000000001". The area has been purified and now officially belongs to the Zhutian Guild.]

Those at the center of the light only felt a flash of white light before their eyes.

When they opened their eyes again, everyone was deeply shocked by what they saw.

Then, to their astonishment, they discovered that the school ruins, which had been dilapidated, covered in blood, and with collapsed buildings, had miraculously vanished after the white light swept over them. The rubble and the monster's corpse had all disappeared.

Instead, it became a huge open space that was extremely flat, clean and spotless, with the ground covered with bluestone slabs.

Those former school buildings and playgrounds have all been turned into neatly divided blank building foundations.

Xu Tian was stunned when he saw this scene.

He looked at the empty space that seemed to have been wiped clean by a miracle, opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

Feng Xue quickly stepped forward, looked around at the vast open space that was so clean that not even a single fallen leaf was visible, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise, and turned to Xu Tian to speak.

"Brother Tian... is this also an internal arrangement designed by your official team? You just give away such a large, flat piece of land as a guild headquarters for free after clearing a dungeon?"

Xu Tian was also completely bewildered. He gave a wry smile and waved his hand.

"I know nothing about this. Even though I'm an insider, they never told me about this kind of shady practice of directly giving away land."

Just as everyone was puzzled, Xu Tian's guild management panel popped up automatically.

He looked at the lines of tiny instructions that appeared on the screen.

After looking at it carefully for a while, he finally understood the mechanism of the land.

He pointed to the phantom images of buildings on the panel and explained to everyone.

"Look, this says that although the land has been given to us, it doesn't mean we're given ready-made houses. See these building foundations? We need to provide the guild's territory control panel with a huge amount of various basic materials, such as wood, stone, iron ingots, and so on."

"As long as there are enough materials, this panel will automatically repair or even upgrade the previous school buildings on this open space as exclusive facilities for our guild."

After hearing Xu Tian's explanation, everyone looked at each other, completely dumbfounded.

Winter scratched his head.

"Good grief, after all this time, it turns out that after clearing this dungeon, they just gave us a piece of land and made us be the contractors to build our own houses?"

Xu Tian smiled helplessly and said.

"Well, that's roughly the idea. But if you think about it more deeply, it's not a bad thing. It means that this instance world is no longer a one-time consumable."

"Since it can be incorporated into our territory, it means we can live here for a long time and turn it into the headquarters of our All-Heavens Guild."

"Moreover, the more dungeons we lead and the more areas we purify, the larger our guild's territory will become."

As Xu Tian spoke, the light in his eyes grew brighter, and he sketched out a magnificent blueprint in his mind.

"Once we've expanded the guild's territory and made this area completely safe, we can use the guild funds to build some high-end houses and villas on this vacant land so that everyone can live comfortably."

"So, everyone, don't just sit around. Once you get out, collect materials as soon as possible to develop your character."

At this moment, the hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live stream who had been watching everything from Xu Tian's perspective went into complete uproar after a brief silence to process this bombshell news.

The comments section was flooded with messages like crazy.

Holy crap! The dungeons we clear can be directly added to our guild territory as our base! That's awesome!

[Doesn't that mean that as long as you're strong enough, this game is essentially a real land-grabbing game? It's like an open world like Asheria, where your guild's territory is permanent, and you can even build cities within it?]

[My god, who can resist this temptation? I have to join a guild too!]

[The Godly Guild is recruiting! We are the birthplace of the top two ranked players in Conquer Online. We offer top-tier benefits and welcome all skilled players to join us and create a glorious future together.]

[Peak: Hey you, if you're hiring, just do it! Don't use my name to recruit!]

[Hahaha! It's okay, Peak. Everyone on the server knows you're the oldest player to be born in this game.]

Looking at the guild leaders in the live stream who were frantically recruiting members because they were envious of the territory system, Xu Tian shook his head helplessly.

He turned off the live comments, turned to look at the three people—Wind, Snow, Summer, and Winter—and said directly.

"The construction of the city should be done sooner rather than later. How many building materials do you have in your backpacks right now?"

Fengxue and the other two immediately opened their backpacks and checked the supplies they had brought in.

A moment later, Fengxue looked at the huge list of materials needed to build a basic building on the guild panel and said somewhat awkwardly.

"Brother Tian, ​​we don't have much. The logs and stones we have, plus the iron ingots, are probably far from enough to build the main teaching building of this school."

"Our panel shows that if we add up all the basic materials we have, it will only be enough to barely build half of the foundation for the school dormitory building that will serve as the living area."

Chapter 290 Recruiting People

At this moment, Xu Tian checked his backpack. It was full of top-tier equipment and rare materials, but he didn't have much basic stone or wood.

He nodded and said.

"It's alright. With the materials I have here and yours, we'll have just enough to make up half. In any case, let's test the waters first."

"Let's build half of that school dormitory first, and see what the building created by the system looks like and whether it has any special functions."

Then, the four of them arrived at an open space marked "Dormitory Area Foundation" and began operating the control panel.

Xu Tian, ​​as the president, clicked the "Submit Materials" button, and the numbers on the materials list were immediately crossed out.

"Swish".

The thousands upon thousands of round stones, planks, iron ingots, and other basic building materials in their backpacks instantly transformed into streaks of light and vanished into thin air.

Then, a miraculous thing happened.

On the previously empty ground in front of everyone, accompanied by a slight spatial fluctuation, a huge, blue fluorescent virtual building holographic projection suddenly appeared out of thin air, visually showing them the outline and structure of the dormitory building after its completion.

At that moment, a progress bar appeared above the blue virtual building projection at the edge of the open space, displaying several large characters.

[Construction Project: Junior Guild Dormitory]

Current material input ratio: 50%

[Under construction... Remaining time: 2 hours]

As the construction progressed, everyone was surprised to see that there were no craftsmen in the blue light curtain.

But the stones and wood that appeared out of nowhere seemed to be controlled by some unseen giant hand, and began to be automatically pieced together piece by piece according to the blueprint, and a thick foundation and walls began to slowly rise from the ground.

The crowd stood aside, dumbfounded, watching this scene unfold.

Feng Xue blinked and turned to Xu Tian.

"Brother Tian, ​​this fully automated house building system, is it some kind of retirement-style dungeon gameplay like the homestead system in those old online games?"

Xu Tian looked at the slowly rising wall and nodded in satisfaction, saying...

"It should be pretty close to the truth."

Then, Xu Tian glanced at the progress bar. It was two hours of automatic construction time. Standing here and waiting was just a waste of their lives.

Xu Tian waved his hand and said.

"Let's go. Since we only have enough materials to repair half of it, let's not look at it for now. Let's go outside and check the situation in the main city."

"Let's continue building here slowly. Anyway, this is our absolute safe zone now, so we don't have to worry about monsters causing trouble."

"it is good".

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Once they confirmed the territory was safe, the four of them opened the system menu and selected "Leave Instance".

Accompanied by a familiar pulling sensation from a purple spatial vortex.

Then, the four figures transformed into four beams of white light and walked out directly from the huge teleportation portal in the center of the square.

And the moment they stepped out of the portal.

Outside the portal, a large number of players had already gathered in the spacious plaza.

None of these people rushed to choose a dungeon landing spot. Instead, they all waited anxiously here, hoping to learn dungeon-clearing techniques through the live stream, as Xu Tian's initial team was about to emerge.

After all, having witnessed Xu Tian's textbook-level clearing techniques and knowing that this dungeon hides monstrous monsters that can turn invisible and have ridiculously high magic resistance.

Even the most stubborn guilds are now feeling uneasy, which is why many people are standing at the entrance, hesitant to go in and risk their lives.

The crowd of players in the square erupted into chaos, with countless people frantically pushing forward.

Among them, many of the casual players who were originally observing saw in the live stream that the places they conquered in this dungeon world could be recognized by the system and directly belong to the guild's private territory, and their minds immediately became active.

Immediately, many people in the crowd shouted loudly at Xu Tian.

"Big shots and guild leaders, I want to join the All Heavens Guild, please accept me!"

"Gods of the world, please give me a spot."

These solo players are quite shrewd; although they also want to join a guild to ensure their future development.

Although there are people recruiting in the square now, and each guild has its own characteristics, there are really not many guilds with a solid foundation and strength.

Therefore, in their view, joining the Zhutian Guild, founded by Xu Tian, ​​who has an official background and possesses terrifying strength and absolute information advantage, is undoubtedly the best and safest plan at the current stage of the game.

As long as you latch onto the coattails of the world's top players, will you ever have to worry about not having territory to live in or not having top-tier equipment?

Seeing the scene before her, where people were all so excited and eager to join the association, Feng Xue stood beside Xu Tian, ​​smiled, and leaned closer to him, whispering something.

"Brother Tian, ​​look, I knew it! Everyone thinks the same way I do. There will definitely be a lot of people who want to latch onto our guild. Our guild is going to be a hot commodity now."

Looking at the dense crowd in front of him, Xu Tian rubbed his temples helplessly and said...

"Yes, that's true. Who wouldn't want a piece of the pie when they get free territory like this?"

Then, Xu Tian took a deep breath and spoke loudly to the noisy crowd in front of him.
