Something’s Wrong with This Game — I Became a God by Mining!

Deep inside the Blazing Gold Mine, Lin Caiyi and the others saw Yang Ling appear and quickly put down their work, crowding around to ask about the Immortal God Sect matter.

"They used explosives and fire oil over there. A lot of players died. According to the post-incident count, there were a total of one hundred and twenty-four bodies."

"But I can't distinguish how many were players, because some of the vagrants were also natives of the Divine Realm."

Yang Ling said.

At this moment, the five or six hundred player miners present fell into silence upon hearing these words.

Even if a mining accident had occurred, it wouldn't necessarily have killed this many players.

The other side had struck in a safe place like the Prefectural Capital, yet they were still burned alive.

"Boss Yang, how do you plan to handle this matter? The Immortal God Sect is clearly targeting your identity as an Ironclad Department agent this time."

A player gathered his courage and asked.

Looking at it now, the Immortal God Sect was a bunch of madmen.

If the conflict with them escalated further, who knew when they would target this group of players?

"I'll say it again: I won't compromise with these terrorists."

Yang Ling said seriously, "That's my stance."

Zhang Shendao nodded: "There's no way we can compromise with them, otherwise they'll definitely push their advantage."

Lin Caiyi and the other veteran players echoed their agreement.

The players present were still somewhat worried at first, but seeing that most of the top ten on the Divine Realm Level Ranking agreed with this point, their concerns immediately lessened.

"That's right, why be afraid of them? Whether it's level or martial arts, we players here are the most elite bunch!"

"No matter how powerful the Immortal God Sect is, can they compare to our depth of experience?"

"If we encounter Immortal God Sect players in the future, can we just kill them outright? Since they've done things like this, killing them shouldn't be illegal, right?"

The scene suddenly became lively.

Yang Ling: "If you encounter Immortal God Sect players, what you need to do is feign cooperation. Killing them outright isn't wise either. It's best to capture them and hand them over to me."

"Otherwise, without evidence proving they're Immortal God Sect heretics, you won't be able to pass through Zhao State's official channels."

Everyone felt a slight chill in their hearts.

Regarding Zhao State's official departments, they still held deep fear.

"Alright, go mine. Leveling up is the most important thing. Try to accumulate more strength before entering the dungeon in a few days."

Yang Ling waved his hand, and seeing this, the crowd dispersed and returned to mining.

"Brother Yang, what do you think about this update to the Beginner Skeleton Cavern Dungeon?"

Lin Caiyi and the others stayed behind.

"The first mode is clearly the game side adjusting the difficulty downward to balance most players' strength."

"If you choose the E+ difficulty, you should be able to clear it easily, but naturally, the rewards won't be high either."

"However, the 30-day time limit given by the dungeon is the most valuable part. You can use that time to cultivate Internal Techniques and Martial Arts Techniques."

Yang Ling said.

Everyone nodded slightly; they had been thinking the same thing.

"The Experience Points for Internal Techniques and Proficiency for Martial Arts Techniques are way too hard to obtain."

Li Shou: "If we could get an extra month of training time each month, that would be much better."

Everyone was very interested in this topic and started complaining about it.

"Beginner's Insight and Comprehensive Mastery are easy, but reaching Flawless Proficiency is absolutely agonizing."

"If we could get more Spirit Nurturing Pills, our Martial Arts Technique improvement would be much faster. But one Spirit Nurturing Pill costs 500 taels of silver, which is way too expensive."

"It's okay. Spending a month mining here to save up for one Spirit Nurturing Pill isn't that hard."

"Brother Yang, what do you think about the second mode?"

Zhang Shendao: "Choosing random match for a higher evaluation rating—isn't that a bit dangerous?"

"Danger definitely exists, but the rewards will be greater too."

Yang Ling: "However, this random match might have some room for manipulation."

"Did you notice that you can select both dungeon difficulty and random match simultaneously?"

"We noticed that too, but what's the room for manipulation?"

Everyone was confused.

"If both modes can still be activated simultaneously when the dungeon opens, then there's a chance I can match with you."

Yang Ling said.

"That can't be right. There are forty million players in the Divine Realm right now. The probability of randomly matching with someone you know is extremely low!?"

Qin Mo said subconsciously.

"If you raise the difficulty high enough, there's actually a very high probability."

Zhang Shendao looked thoughtful, and suddenly his eyes lit up:

"Brother Yang's combat power is at least Sixth-Rank level, so Brother Yang can choose a C-rank dungeon!"

"Right now, among the players, there should be no one who dares to choose a C-rank dungeon. So as long as we select C-rank difficulty and then random match, won't we be able to enter the dungeon with Brother Yang?"

When these words came out, the expressions of Lin Caiyi, Jiang Tian'ai, Li Shou, Wu Xiaochen, Chen Xu, Li Tianye, and the others all became very interesting.

After a brief silence, this group grew more excited by the second.

"Brother Yang, do you think this is feasible? The benefit of random match is that the evaluation rating increases by one level, which can significantly boost the rewards."

"That means as long as we clear the dungeon, even if we make zero contribution inside, the minimum rating we'll get is F-rank."

"A C-rank dungeon is too high-end for us, but even an F-rank rating would give us plenty of benefits."

Zhang Shendao looked at Yang Ling with eager anticipation.

Lin Caiyi pondered: "There's one problem here—what if we end up dragging Brother Yang down?

That would create a lot of unexpected situations.

Also, if there really are some people who aren't afraid of death and choose C-rank difficulty, and we match with them, then we'll all be annihilated without any chance of survival."

These words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing the flames that had just risen in everyone's hearts.

"That really is a problem... If this is a loophole, then exploiting it comes with corresponding costs."

Chen Xu murmured to himself.

"I'll choose C+ rank difficulty. There should be no players in the Zhao State region who would choose this difficulty."

Yang Ling pondered: "At that time, if you're willing to bear that tiny bit of risk, you can try random match."

"C+?"

Everyone's eyes brightened slightly.

If it was this difficulty, then they were confident they could match with Yang Ling.

"This difficulty corresponds to Upper Sixth-Rank. There really shouldn't be a second player who would choose this difficulty..."

Lin Caiyi murmured softly.

"Go mine for now. When the time comes, anyone who wants to random match can choose the same difficulty as me."

Yang Ling said with a smile.

Everyone felt a glimmer of anticipation in their hearts and became highly motivated, planning to level up once more in the next few days.

...

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

There were less than five minutes left until the Beginner Skeleton Cavern Dungeon refreshed.

At this moment, players from all regions put down what they were doing and kept their eyes fixed on the time countdown.

They had to make some choices—whether to enter the dungeon, and which mode to choose.

These decisions had to be made before the dungeon refreshed, because the dungeon wouldn't wait for anyone. If they missed the time, they'd have to wait until next month.

In front of Yang Ling stood a dozen figures.

All of them were players who planned to random match with him.

"Zhang Yan, your level is so low, and you still dare to go in and take the risk?"

Yang Ling couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Yan gave an awkward laugh: "Following you guys, I definitely won't lose out."

Yang Ling nodded and didn't say anything more.

At this moment, the countdown entered the final thirty seconds.

"Did you select random match?"

"Selected."

"Good. Change the difficulty to B-."

"What!?"

There wasn't much time left for everyone.

In their shock, Lin Caiyi and the others subconsciously changed the difficulty to B-.

But a few players were so frightened that even when the dungeon started, they didn't dare to select the B- difficulty.

In their panic, they directly canceled the option to enter the dungeon.
