The God's Games

After playing with them for a while, he finally tore himself away and headed to the quarry.

On his way there, Return of the King was wondering what kind of quests the quarry could offer and what the players who got into the game earlier were busy with.

When he finally arrived at the quarry, Return of the King was surprised to see a foundation being dug next to it.

It looked just like a construction site in real life!

To his surprise, a player saw him and quickly shouted, "A new player is here!"

Another voice chimed in, "What are you standing around for? Come here and help!"

Return of the King stood there, puzzled, and said, "Help? With what?"

He never expected that playing a game would involve working on a construction site.

Flower Deer silently stood beside him and said, "Of course, we're building a factory."

Return of the King stammered, "Building a factory? Why?"

Flower Deer who is wearing a safety helmet she somehow got, holds some blueprints which make her look like a construction site supervisor.

"Didn't you get the quest?"

Return of the King checked his quest screen and, scratching his head, said, "The NPC told me to come here and help."

Flower Deer glanced at the construction site and nodded her head at him, "This is where you need to help."

Return of the King's mouth dropped open as he stared at the construction site in disbelief.

He repeated, "So, you're saying I have to help build a factory? But that's not what I saw in Master PungPong's live streaming!"

Flower Deer pointed and said, "Is that Master PungPong you're talking about?"

Return of the King looked closely and realized his eyes weren't playing tricks on him.

The person digging in the construction site was indeed Master PungPong, who now had over 300,000 followers.

"This..."

Someone down below called out to Return of the King, "Stop hesitating and get down here to help. The game company didn't let you join just to stand around."

Return of the King dumbly took the shovel, feeling like he'd been tricked, and slowly walked down to the construction site.

The person next to him flashed a bright smile and said, "Just follow my movements."

After Return of the King, the first new player got started, and the construction site became a hive of activity.

As more new players entered the game and completed their initial quests, they were all sent by NPCs to the quarry on the Eastern Plains.

Thanks to the combined efforts of fifty players, the ironworks was starting to take shape.

Hanjun didn't come out to meet the players; he only stepped out of his room after they had left for the quarry.

After welcoming all the new players, Father Barry left the church and walked over to Hanjun.

He didn't understand why Hanjun so readily agreed to the players' idea of building an ironworks, but he had always trusted Hanjun completely and didn't plan on questioning his decision.
