Gamers of the Underworld Chapter 205 - King of Voluminous Questions

In a dim room, a computer was on a table. The computer was in screensaver mode while numerous books were placed on the table with the following t.i.tles:

“Third Year College Examination 5 Year Series”, “Huanggang Secret Manual”, “Advanced Mathematics”, “Examination Questions Research”, and “College Examination Full Score Composition Compilation”.

And various supplementary books.

An open book was on the side with a drawing of an ugly green monster and the words, “Gnome, TakeASpearHit”.

…

TakeASpearHit opened his eyes and sat up. While he was lying down, walls were built around him and a ceiling constructed above him. There were other Gnomes, Goblins, and Houndhead Men lying in the house. The ceiling had a small hole and a ladder attached to it so that they could access the second floor.

For the second floor, the walls weren’t constructed. During this period of time, there were the Battle Campaign Scenario and the new areas for exploration, so the gamers didn’t have time to build their house.

TakeASpearHit was with Springfield Flower Kindergarten. The Guild members had acc.u.mulated resources to purchase their Guild land.

Later, the Guild leader and his loyalists defected to Dragon Raja, so Dragonborn became the new Guild leader.

After that, conflicts of land ensued. As the previous Guild leader defected with his loyalists, they demanded a refund on their private lands. Dragonborn and his Guild members had to find new land to settle down. It was fortunate that they helped each other. The Dragon Raja Guild also helped with the negotiation, which was resolved after a few days.

The problem was that TakeASpearHit had new roommates. He didn’t recognize the sleeping Gnomes around him.

“TakeASpearHit! Gos.h.!.+ You didn’t come online yesterday!”

A Gnome Dragonborn and a Houndhead Man SealHeadLingChong ran in just as TakeASpearHit stood up. SealHeadLingChong spoke loudly, but it was harmless since the other gamers were offline while they slept in the game. They wouldn’t be awakened by noises.

“Gosh, I’ve been studying all day!” TakeASpearHit shouted.

“You’re studying? Is the college examination two days later?”

Dragonborn was taken aback and asked, “Sorry, most of the gamers are either undergraduates or professionals. We haven’t heard of college students. Aren’t you an undergraduate?”

“I’m a first-year undergraduate! I’m not studying for the college examination, I’m doing it for the Power of Sacred Light!”

TakeASpearHit said, “I’ve found my goal. With my poor luck, I won’t be able to obtain the Mana Skills Book and be a Magician. Then, I saw on the forum that ChangzhouWinterHorse and the veteran gamers had to take an examination to obtain the Power of Sacred Light. I finally understand that luck is secondary. The most important thing is capability! If I study hard, I’ll be able to answer the questions. It’s not a matter of luck anymore!”

“Gosh, since when did you become so spirited and ambitious?”

Dragonborn was dazed, but TakeASpearHit said, “I’ve always been spirited and ambitious. You’ve always looked down on me. I’ve decided, my goal is to be a Grand Priest! I’ll obtain the Power of Sacred Light!”

“Stop bluffing. Veteran Hemp Rope Technology is receiving the Sacred Light Baptism! Let’s hurry over to watch. There should be no problem!”

The three of them stopped chatting and proceeded to the cave where Beast was staying.

That location had become a temporary Baptism site. In simple terms, it was the profession change location for Sacred Knight or Grand Priest.

There were lots of gathered gamers. For the past few days, all the candidates for Baptism had failed. As the wisest representative with excellent scientific knowledge, Hemp Rope Technology brought the gamers on a brave and irreversible journey of discovering shocking Gnome Technology.

Hemp Rope Technology wasn’t interested in combat, but to challenge the test of the Sacred Light, he chose to carry bricks diligently. With everybody’s effort, they managed to make Hemp Rope Technology the top gamer for daily construction missions.

Hence, Hemp Rope Technology was brought by Sherlock to Beast for the Sacred Light Baptism.

Beast had conducted Baptism for eight gamers, but all of them failed. They had issues regarding learning att.i.tude, so they weren’t qualified by the Sacred Light.

In the Underworld, it was considered crazy and decadent behavior to be pa.s.sionate about learning! Beast didn’t cherish any hope for the Gnomes, Goblins, and Houndhead Men. Enlightening them with the Power of Sacred Light was too difficult.

But Lord Sherlock would still bring a group of excited gamers to him for Baptism.

Even if Beast had given up hope in his heart, he didn’t decline in action.

He looked at the Goblin that was laden with bladders. Like before, he asked, “What do you wish for?”

“I wish for knowledge!”

“What benefits does knowledge brings you?”

“Knowledge makes me strong!”

“If you want to wors.h.i.+p the Sacred Lord and be his servant, listen to his Gospel. You shall not scold or attack Holy Lord believers. Be progressive and learn diligently. Then you’ll get full marks in science subjects and be a useful person in society. Can you do that?”

“I have done that!”

Beast saw that the Goblin was confident, but he was indifferent. The previous candidates bluffed their way through, but did they not drown during the Baptism?

They were yearning for the power and not pa.s.sionate about learning!

Beast put his hand in the water. Like before, Beast was illuminated with Sacred Light. Even the cauldron water was luminous.

“Are you ready?”

Beast grabbed the back of the Goblin’s skull and touched his forehead with the Goblin’s forehead as he said, “May the Holy Lord bless this child.”

Then he pushed the Goblin’s head into the water.

The Goblin didn’t have any initial reaction. After a while, his fingers moved, and the crowd became hysterical.

“Gos.h.!.+ That was mental arithmetic!”

“What? What’s that about?”

“Mental arithmetic! That’s a technique of a true master! He’s able to calculate the answers without a calculator or rough paper. He only touches his fingers. Didn’t you watch it on television?”

“Didn’t they use that for special effects on television?”

“No, no, no. Most of them aren’t just for special effects. That’s too awesome! Oh my G.o.d!”

…

TakeASpearHit looked puzzledly at Hemp Rope Technology, who was receiving Baptism. Everyone waited for the result.

Beast waited for ten minutes before pulling Hemp Rope Technology up. During the ten minutes, Hemp Rope Technology had been touching his fingers to do mental arithmetic. After being pulled up, Hemp Rope Technology relaxed his fingers.

Beast put Hemp Rope Technology carefully on the ground and did resuscitation to revive him.

After doing a complete set of resuscitation, Beast shook his head with regret.

The gamers became quiet for a while before being hysterical again.

“How difficult are the questions?”

“Shucks, if Hemp Rope Technology can’t solve the questions, then we’ll have no chance!”

“Is the game producer fooling us again? Perhaps there’s a hidden conspiracy!”

“I’m a thirty-year-old man. I practiced the questions the whole of last night. I have been cheated!”

…

“It’s a pity, but this brother didn’t pa.s.s the Holy Lord’s test…” Beast shook his head. Then, Hemp Rope Technology suddenly became luminous with Sacred Light!

Sherlock took a step back as the Sacred Light was too bright.

In the Sacred Light, Hemp Rope Technology’s hollow voice came from a distance.

“I saw Galileo, Charles Darwin half-kneeling by my throne.

“Newton and Emperor Qin s.h.i.+huang in school uniforms guarding by the side.

“w.a.n.g Ans.h.i.+ is blowing the coronation horn.

“Xin Qiji and Bismarck led millions as they submit to my rule. Avogadro is crowning me.”

Hemp Rope Technology landed steadily on the ground. On his head were various figures of scientific geniuses—Newton, Charles Darwin, Galileo, Einstein, Stephen Hawking, Tesla, Faraday…

In addition, there were various formulas—C=Q/U, E=mc^2, F-E+V=2, dS≥0…

Hemp Rope Technology’s eyes were filled with a brilliance that showed extreme intelligence and rationale. A faint image of a compa.s.s appeared on his left hand, while his right hand held a book with the t.i.tle “Historical Records”. Behind him was a Knowledge Hall.

He shouted loudly, “I—am the King of Voluminous Questions!”

…

“Awesome, this is awesome. I finally understand why when the Devils and the Heavens were born, they were at odds. In this situation, it’s hard for them to maintain peace.”

After seeing Hemp Rope Technology being crowned by the Sacred Light, Bru said excitedly, “If I’m given a choice, I’ll choose the Devil’s camp. As decadence, I mean, is more relaxed. Life should be relaxed and casual to be enjoyable.”

“I don’t understand what you’re saying. I didn’t expect these gamers to be such decadent creatures.” Sherlock lifted his head with worry.

Outside the Dungeon Lord Main Hall, there was hectic shouting.

“I want to learn! I’m pa.s.sionate about learning!”

“Whoever stops me from learning, I’ll kill him!”

“Today, n.o.body’s going to stop me from learning!”

“Quick! Give me questions! I’m able to do more!”

And other similar shouts. On the discussion forum, there was a prominent post.

[Large number of questions online—you can also be crowned with Sacred Light!]
