Gamers of the Underworld

Chapter 487: Dilemma

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Did you find out about the gamer University of Science and Technology of China?”

“Which company or Guild is he from?”

“Why didn’t we hear of him before?”

“Don’t know. He’s intelligent to create those hot air balloons!”

“What hot air balloons? Those are Airships!”

“What Airships? Those are Kirov Airships!”

In the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon, gamers who were learning Mana Engineering in the Mana Engineering Project Hall were chatting about the Faction War. The gamers of Victoria City used arcane technology to create Airships and airborne troops to achieve victory.

The principle for driving the Airships was well-known. Even professional gamers with materials and facilities were able to produce them.

But nobody thought of using them as weapons in a war.

Just like Hemp Rope Technology, most of the intelligent gamers were focused on Runes and Mana knowledge. Compared to science, the Runes and Mana Formations that could produce Mana effects were more convenient than science and technology.

But they overlooked the fact that science could be simpler than Mana. Simple Airships that made use of the principle of hot air became the secret weapon of the Victorians that defeated the gamers of Eternal Kingdom.

This made the gamers focus their attention on the neglected natural sciences.

After being defeated, the gamers of Eternal Kingdom worked hard and started researching steam boiler machines.

It was easier said than done, as many of the current materials had to be replaced.

If that could be done, then it would be a great achievement. The modern industry was based on this technology.

Hemp Rope Technology also thought of using the steam engines to create assembly line production. He even wanted to use Rune Mana and Mana Skills to create simplified guns, but the process used too much Mana, and the cost was also too high. Finally, the idea was abandoned. The gamers wouldn’t accept such a high-cost weapon.

The game had become a technology competition and an arms race. Only this game had such a lure.

On the Surface World, the endless stream of the Godly Kingdom’s army traveled towards Victoria City under the leadership of their commander.

Before the army completed half of the journey, the army commander received a letter from Queen Victoria.

“What does Queen Victoria mean by sending a letter? Did she receive information that we’re arriving at Victoria City?” Steamed Dumpling asked a commander who was wearing Superior armor. The commander was General Shidan.

General Shidan didn’t respond to Steamed Dumpling. Instead, he read the letter.

The letter was simple. It was a sentence that said, “Send the money, not the army.”

What did that mean? Money was enough? The army wasn’t needed? If money could defeat the Underworld creatures, what was the use of the army? It was an insult! The commander was furious.

The Victorians had just defeated the Duke of York, so they were overbearing. However, they rejected the reinforcements from the Godly Kingdom and treated the commander with disrespect. The commander felt humiliated.

If given a choice, the commander would like to attack Victoria City. Then he would drag Queen Victoria out and interrogate her about who the victor was.

However, he couldn’t do that. He was given specific orders by the King, and their common enemy was the Underworld creatures. It wasn’t the time to resolve personal grudges.

“We’ll ignore the Queen and continue our march. Whether the Victorians accept our help or not, fighting the Underworld creatures is what all Humans should do.”

General Shidan ordered his army to continue marching and ignored Queen Victoria’s warning. They entered Victoria City’s territory. The army was there to defeat the Underworld creatures, and the Victorians couldn’t do anything about it.

General Shidan ordered the army to quicken their pace. Only George and Steamed Dumpling were worried.

Because they had fought with the warriors of Victoria City before.

But they could only watch by the side. There was nothing they could do. They hoped that the Victorians would accept the Godly Kingdom’s help.

...

“What? Did you say that the Godly Kingdom’s army had entered our territory?”

Queen Victoria sat in the Castle Main Hall and looked at the reporting Hamster. She paused after listening to the Hamster before saying, “Didn’t they receive my letter? Didn’t I tell them not to enter our territory?”

Big Boss Hamster said bewilderedly, “Miss Lilo, I passed the letter to the army commander, but he didn’t heed your warning.”

“If that’s the case, kill all of them,” Lilo frowned and said.

However, Big Boss quickly said, “Wait a moment, Miss Lilo, according to Lord Sherlock’s plan, we should be allying with the Godly Kingdom instead of attacking them. According to the Faction War, we are on the same side as the Godly Kingdom.”

“Tsk.”

Lilo frowned and looked unhappy.

“Then give them a warning not to enter the boundary of Victoria City without my orders. They can move freely in the York Territory or Goldshire Town. This is my best offer. If they ignore my order, let the warriors of Victoria City attack them.”

Lilo waved her hand, and Big Boss left to carry out her order.

Big Boss sent the letter to General Shidan, but he ignored it.

To General Shidan, he only had to heed the orders of the King and not an unknown Queen Victoria.

He wanted to attack the Underworld and complete this glorious mission. How could he stop outside the boundary of Victoria City just because of Queen Victoria’s order?
