Minecraft players are invading the worlds.

Railway Brother Wang was the first to jump into the pre-dug exploratory pit, his efficient diamond pickaxe drawing an arc in the air before slamming heavily into the solid rock wall.

"Ding!"

The crisp sound of the pickaxe tip striking the rock echoed through the earth.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of tools started working at the same time, with picks chiseling and shovels turning over the soil, and the entire construction site erupted in a deafening roar.

Soil, gravel, and broken rocks were precisely removed piece by piece.

A giant tunnel, five meters wide and five meters high, is extending northward at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The villagers following behind moved in unison, taking out the smooth stones they had prepared from their backpacks and laying them methodically on the walls of the newly excavated tunnel.

There is one floor on the ground, one floor on each side, and one floor on the top.

Surrounded on all sides, the smooth stone slabs reflected a uniform luster under the torchlight, completely enveloping the tunnel.

"So neat and tidy."

Clara stood behind, supervising as she watched the villagers work together smoothly, and nodded inwardly.

The discipline training in the classroom and the collective labor in the workshop have enabled these previously undisciplined villagers to develop basic execution and teamwork skills.

At the same time, at the end of the line, more than ten kilometers away.

Another team led by Chen Feng also began simultaneous tunneling.

"Follow the coordinates."

Chen Feng stared intently at the precise data on the stone slab in his hand, his voice steady.

"The directional deviation should not exceed half a grid. Pay attention to changes in the rock strata and adjust accordingly."

"receive".

Although the pace here is a bit slower than at the starting point, the construction is more meticulous. For every meter of tunneling progress, a specialist will use tools to measure the tunnel axis to ensure that the line is straight.

The two teams, one in the south and one in the north, are like two drills penetrating the earth's crust, steadily advancing in each other's directions.

Outside the tunnel, Feng Xue sat on a flat blue stone, her eyes slightly closed, a faint silvery-white light emanating from them.

At this moment, she divided the five thousand snow wolves into twenty transport teams, which were orderly undertaking the logistical support tasks for the entire project.

Material transportation, tool resupply, waste removal...

A line of sturdy snow wolves, carrying wooden crates of varying sizes on their backs, ran back and forth between the tunnel entrance and the temporary material warehouse, forming a constant flow of transport.

The efficiency was so high that even the veteran players supervising the work were amazed.

"Wind and Snow, your logistics team is more professional than our professional construction team."

Railway Brother Wang poked his head out of the cave and looked at the snow wolves running with heavy loads, and couldn't help but sigh.

Fengxue opened her eyes and smiled faintly.

"The cooperative instinct of wolves is purer than that of humans."

Standing high above the main cave entrance, Xu Tian looked down at everything and felt a surge of indescribable emotion.

This was the largest collective action in terms of scale and number of participants since the founding of Eshilia.

Players, local humans, and tamed wolf packs—three forces converge, all striving towards the same goal.

"The next recruitment drive should open up to architecture and urban planning majors."

He silently calculated in his mind.

"Once this strategic railway is completed, the town development of Eshilia should also be put on the agenda."

Thinking of this, he remembered something else.

A couple of days ago, in the video comments section, many fans asked why only railway majors were recruited, and whether it was unfair to enthusiasts from other fields.

Now, taking advantage of this epic construction project, we can provide everyone with a clear answer and also lay the groundwork for a wider recruitment drive in the next round.

"Let's start a live stream."

With a thought, Xu Tian exited the game and opened the live streaming function of the Douhai platform in the real world.

Consciousness sank into Eshilia.

This time, a floating live stream window appeared in the corner of his field of vision, a real-time preview of the live stream from the real world.

As soon as the live stream started, the popularity soared at an astonishing speed.

Zero, two thousand, five thousand, ten thousand, thirty thousand...

In just two minutes, the number of online viewers exceeded 50,000.

The comment section was like a burst dam, with bullet comments scrolling wildly.

[Is "The World" airing?]

【real or fake? 】

[Holy crap, it's actually airing!]

[Front row, truly the embodiment of the world]

【Wow, isn't this background from a game?】

[Host, your character model is so cool!]

Xu Tian looked at the rapidly refreshing barrage of comments, cleared his throat, and spoke.

"Hello everyone, I am Tianxia. Thank you for coming to the live broadcast room."

"As you can see, this is not Earth, nor is it any place we are familiar with. This is the first map of the game Conquer Online, the world of Eshiria."

He paused, then added.

"As for people saying I'm handsome, that's because I adjusted my character's face based entirely on my real appearance when I created the character, so don't be surprised."

The barrage of comments exploded instantly.

Hahaha, you're so honest!

So this is what the streamer really looks like? It's a shame she's not in the entertainment industry with that kind of looks.

The visual quality is so realistic, it doesn't feel like a game at all!

"The main reason for starting this live stream today is to show everyone why we specifically recruited players with railway expertise."

Xu Tian turned around and walked towards the deep cave entrance behind him.

The live stream then moved, fully revealing the massive, brightly lit passageway that extended downwards to tens of thousands of viewers.

"Look here, everyone."

He pointed to the cave entrance and said.

"This is the construction site of the railway tunnel we are building. A professional team of players is leading NPCs in underground excavation operations."

Wait...you guys are really digging tunnels in the game?!

I thought they were going to find an existing railway line on a map and modify it...

【Take us down to see the world】

"Okay, let's go down and take a look."

Xu Tian walked down the makeshift wooden steps, and the live stream's perspective followed him downwards.

Inside the tunnel, the torchlight illuminated every corner clearly.

Neat, smooth stone walls, a straight tunnel leading forward, and dozens of players sweating profusely as they dig forward...

Every detail was presented to tens of thousands of viewers without reservation.

Holy crap, this level of neatness is a dream come true for perfectionists!

The precision with which the smooth stones were laid is incredible; there are absolutely no seams visible.

Chapter 103 Seriously amazing!

[Was this really dug by a player manually, or was it generated by the system?]

"This is the result of the work of professional railway personnel."

Xu Tian pointed to the surrounding walls and explained.

"The smooth stone fixing layer is not just for decoration; it can effectively prevent rock collapse and ensure the permanent safety of the tunnel. That's why we need people who really understand engineering."

[Oh, I see! I've learned something new!]

[This is even more impressive than watching an engineering documentary...]

Is this game really that hardcore? Even subway construction requires a professional team?

Xu Tian continued.

"This strategic railway construction brought together all 130 players on the server, more than 600 NPCs, and more than 5,000 wolves responsible for logistics, with a total force of nearly 6,000."

Six thousand units? That's a scale...

Even in a game, it would take a long time for such a small group of people to dig through more than ten kilometers, right?

Yes, in reality, these kinds of projects take several years...

Xu Tian smiled slightly.

"That's a good question, but don't forget, this is a game world, and the construction methods are very different from reality."

[How exactly are they different? Let's take a look at the scene.]

"Okay, then let's take everyone to the most advanced construction site."

Just then, Xu Tian caught a glimpse of a white afterimage out of the corner of his eye.

A giant wolf, nearly twice the size of an ordinary snow wolf, with fur as white as the first snow of winter, nimbly passed through the passage behind him and was rushing toward the construction area ahead.

The appearance of the white wolf in the live stream instantly triggered a tsunami of comments.

[Holy crap, there's a wolf!]

[Be careful what's behind you when you're broadcasting]
