Minecraft players are invading the worlds.

"Everyone, I am honored that you think so highly of me. Well, those who want to join my Heavenly Guild, I warmly welcome you."

Upon hearing Xu Tian's agreement, a cheer erupted from the crowd.

But Xu Tian immediately raised his hand to suppress it, and his voice became serious.

"However, everyone, don't get too excited yet. Our game has only been open for a short time, and my guild is also newly established. According to the system, it is only a level one guild."

"The system strictly limits the number of members in this level of guild; there are only 90 people at most."

Upon hearing this, the previously boisterous crowd immediately quieted down considerably.

There are ninety spots available, but there are hundreds of people present.

Xu Tian ignored the reactions of the crowd and continued to speak loudly.

"Therefore, I will only select the highest-level and most hardcore people. And let me make this clear: once I agree to let you in, I won't have time to take care of you like a babysitter every day."

"You need to find teammates within the guild and form a team on your own, and then go to do dungeons and explore new areas on your own."

Despite the stringent conditions imposed by Xu Tian, ​​the players remained enthusiastic, as they were eager to join the guild.

Looking at the still-burning gazes of the crowd, Xu Tian secretly made a decision in his mind.

Chapter 291 Righteousness

Since I am now the leader of the guild and have just taken in these followers, I must provide them with some strategic resources for the long-term development of the guild.

We need to speed up these guys' progress in other dungeons and raids; we can't let them all get wiped out by those invisible monsters.

Xu Tian paused, softened his tone slightly, and continued to add.

"However, since you call me Guild Master, I won't be stingy. By the way, I will create a few Rings of Light specifically to counter those shadow-stealing monsters."

"At that time, I will treat these rings as guild property and place them directly in the public warehouse of the school territory that I just conquered."

Xu Tian glanced at everyone and offered an enticing promise.

"As long as you are a member of the All-Heavens Guild, when you go to open those unknown dungeons in the future, each team can apply to bring a Ring of Light from the warehouse."

"As for the special weapon that can freely extract attributes to complement the Ring of Light, you'll have to find someone to forge it yourselves. That's all I can do for you."

After hearing Xu Tian's generous words.

Immediately, some players became so excited that their faces turned red, and they couldn't help but wave their fists and shout loudly in the crowd.

"The big boss is awesome, and the guild leader is so handsome!"

As Xu Tian's smooth and textbook-level tactics were revealed in the live stream, the entire world channel of the game "Conquer Online" was instantly ignited.

After witnessing firsthand how the only creature in the world could capture an invisible monster and how it could use the Ring of Light to violently break through defenses, the fear in my heart was instantly replaced by the passion for exploration.

"So that's how you beat this boss. Light Arrow and Light attribute are key. Quick, go buy some Light-type materials."

"Brothers, stop standing there! The top players have already given us the strategy guide. If we still can't get the first clear, we might as well just delete our accounts."

In an instant, an unprecedented wave of land reclamation swept across the square.

Countless guilds began making preparations in this square.

All resources are being allocated to items with the Light attribute and control abilities.

At this moment, Xu Tian was standing on an open space not far from the teleportation portal. He raised his head slightly and looked intently at the long street in the distance.

At the end of the bustling crowd, several familiar figures seemed to be pushing through the throng and walking straight towards them.

The person who arrived was none other than Shangshangqian, along with the group of player teachers behind her.

Looking at Shangshangqian and the others' slightly hurried footsteps, a hint of doubt flashed in Xu Tian's eyes.

In his memory, these players, who were originally gardeners in real life, had very simple and noble aspirations after entering the game.

They almost never participate in any guild wars, and usually spend most of their time in the classrooms of Asheria.

Patiently teach those displaced human NPC children to read, speak, and learn basic survival skills.

"Shouldn't they be teaching in the classroom at a time like this? Why are they here in this square filled with murderous intent?"

Xu Tian muttered to himself.

Thinking of this, Xu Tian immediately sheathed his longsword and walked towards the auspicious fortune slip.

He gave a friendly smile and greeted them first.

"Teacher Shang, it's been a long time. You all seem to be in a hurry. Could it be that you've also been attracted by this new instance?"

At this moment, Shangshangqian was accompanied by three companions, all of whom were among the earliest and most experienced teacher players to enter this world.

Upon hearing Xu Tian's voice, Shangshangqian stopped, smiled somewhat embarrassedly, and nodded in greeting.

"Actually, we've been watching your live stream the whole time. I have to say, your performance in that battle was really exciting even for us laymen."

The koi fish standing nearby chimed in.

"Brother Tian, ​​to be honest, we came here specifically for this dungeon. Just now in the live stream, we saw the system notification that popped up after you cleared the school dungeon, which is the function that the purified area can be directly designated as guild territory and repaired and rebuilt."

Xu Tian raised an eyebrow, vaguely guessing their purpose.

"You're after that territory expansion mechanism?"

"Yes".

Shangshangqian's eyes became unusually firm. She looked at the majestic Asheria Castle in the distance and sighed.

"Although Eshilia is now a refuge for our human race, as the number of players increases, the living space for NPC children is being severely compressed."

“Those temporary classrooms simply cannot provide them with a stable educational environment, so we just discussed it and decided that since the places we conquer can become guild headquarters, our Academic Affairs Guild would also like to try to enter them and conquer some places.”

Koi added.

"What we want is not a strategic location or mineral resources. We just want to see if we can, through our efforts, build a dedicated school in this instance world, just like your territory, and then completely purify and restore it."

"If we succeed, we plan to bring those NPC children and elderly people in to live there and create a real, undisturbed sanctuary academy for them."

Upon hearing this, the players who had been making a lot of noise and busy recruiting people around them miraculously fell silent.

Many people turned their heads to look at these teachers who looked refined and even somewhat frail.

"What a noble cause! The teachers are truly noble."

Someone in the crowd shouted something.

"These are truly gamers who transcend time. While we're all thinking about how to farm gold coins, they're thinking about how to build schools for NPCs."

The live stream was also shocked. The screen, which was originally full of strategy discussions, was instantly covered by a barrage of tributes and praise for the teacher.

In this game world filled with deceit and the law of the jungle, the pure altruism of people like Shangshangqian is all the more precious.

Xu Tian was also deeply moved. He nodded solemnly to the auspicious fortune slip and said sincerely.

"Teacher Shang, I take back my doubts. Since you have such ambitions, I, the only one in the world, will absolutely support you. Indeed, as long as the conquered territory is recognized by the system as guild territory..."

"This would create an absolutely secure protection mechanism. Unless the guild disbands or the territory core is destroyed, monsters cannot respawn. This idea is indeed feasible."

Xu Tian thought for a moment and then added.

"Instead of letting those unarmed NPCs live in fear every day in this crowded and noisy Eshilia, enduring the noise of the players, why don't you professional teachers carve out a territory in the dungeon, build it into an independent ecosystem, and let them live in it?"

Chapter 292 The Life I Long For

"This has immeasurable benefits in improving the loyalty and happiness of the entire NPC faction."

With the affirmation and support of Xu Tian, ​​a top-tier player, Shangshangqian and the others showed relieved smiles.

They knew that with the phrase "the only one in the world," the success rate of their plan for Academy City would be greatly increased.

Then, Shangshangqian bowed slightly to Xu Tian and said politely.

"Thank you for your understanding. We won't bother you any longer. Now that we've decided on our direction, we need to hurry back and recruit some combat players who are willing to help, and prepare to begin our pioneering journey."

"You guys go ahead with your work, we'll be going now."

Xu Tian smiled and nodded, watching these gardeners with lofty ideals disappear into the light of the teleportation portal.

Subsequently, the entire player community officially began the nationwide exploration in this slightly warm yet competitive atmosphere.

Meanwhile, on the other side, in a secluded mountain retreat far from the hustle and bustle, shrouded in mist and clouds.

Chu Jian was sitting cross-legged on the grass in front of the small wooden house, completely unladylike. He held a blade of grass in his hand and looked at the transparent system panel in front of him with some frustration.

His gaze remained fixed on Xu Tian's live stream, watching the intense battle, the deafening cheers, and the triumphant first announcement.

"Hey, all they do is live a life of luxury, researching new ways to have fun and eating heartily, while I'm stuck here like someone on a reality show, all I do is look at the clouds and the trees. The difference is just too big."

At first sight, I couldn't help but let out a series of groans in my heart.

Just then, a light footstep sound came from behind.

Ruoxue, carrying a basket of freshly picked wild fruits, slowly walked over and sat down next to Chujian.

Her clear, autumn-water-like eyes, filled with a hint of worry and gentleness, gazed quietly at the slightly forlorn profile of the man she had just met, and she asked softly.

"Chu Jian, what's wrong? You've been staring blankly at the air ever since you left. Is life here too boring and you're feeling stifled?"

When Chu Jian came to her senses and turned to face Ruoxue's innocent and pure face, the annoyance in her heart inexplicably dissipated by more than half.

He chuckled twice, scratched the back of his head, and said...

"No, I don't know either. Maybe...maybe I'm homesick."

After hearing this, a hint of sadness flashed in Xuexue's eyes, but she quickly regained her gentle smile.

She stretched out her slender finger, pointed to the distant mountains, and softly comforted them.

"Yes, I understand. The outside world is vast, and you don't belong in this quiet valley. Once the monster's roars outside have completely stopped, and once the path down the mountain is safe, you can leave."

Hearing Ruoxuexue's thoughtful words, Chujian's heart skipped a beat.

He screamed wildly in his mind.

"Tianxia, ​​Fengxue, when will you come to save me? If I stay any longer, my Dao heart will really collapse."

But then he thought that since the road was blocked and he couldn't commit suicide to return to the city, there was nothing to do but sit here and wait to die. He might as well find something meaningful to do to pass the time.

Thinking of this, Chu Jian's eyes lit up, and she began to quickly rummage through her personal backpack.
