Chapter 96: Another Update

With an official demonstration, the players' desire to stir up trouble grew even stronger.

There were so many books in the library that there were bound to be some that would cause a stir.

For example, *Federal Economic Research*, a book from a Believer of the Wealth Church, detailed how the O'Neil Federation's economy operated over 100 years ago.

A certain economics student provided a simple and easy-to-understand explanation of the O'Neil Federation's economic behavior and then reached a conclusion: the Wealth Church would not control the economy of Tana City because this economic model itself was backward.

Take another example: there was a book of herbal notes that detailed over 300 types of herbs, the vast majority of which could be matched to existing herbs. A student studying traditional Chinese medicine even specifically translated this book and used a few of the folk remedies inside to conduct experiments... and believe it or not, they actually succeeded in experimenting with a formula to clear up a cold, which is reportedly already being studied in depth with their mentor.

As for the books on theology, hardly anyone paid them much attention; these books were inherently dry, and likely only those passionate about history would enjoy them. The various messy names inside caused people to lose interest in learning entirely, and even the translation progress for them was the slowest in the entire library.

Nothing could be more useful than the players themselves; these workhorses were miles ahead on the road of translation, and it only took them a week to translate most of the books in the library.

Although the quantity was high, one had to consider the book resource reserves of the Tana City library, and with more than half of the books translated poorly, Chen Zhi would still have to send out over 300 Helmets.

Fortunately, he never intended to put in many Helmets from the start. If he added the 100 test players, the number of "Xiahui People" in Tana City this time would increase to around 800.

This number was already quite terrifying; one must know that the current Tana City only had a population of about 300,000, which was not even as large as a medium-sized community in some big cities.

With a sudden increase of 800 people, he would just have to wait for Saina to return and remake their identities.

They couldn't all be Xiahui People; players who frequently courted death needed to change their identities after respawning. In this way, the number of Xiahui People on the surface would break the thousand-person mark. This was only possible because the entire Tana City was relatively chaotic; otherwise, these people would definitely be investigated to see where they came from.

Fortunately, most of these players entered the game relying on translation activities, so their language proficiency was definitely better than those initial players. Chen Zhi felt relatively reassured, and with Saina providing cover...

It seemed it was time to do some other activities.

Tana City was a place where it was spring all year round; it was said to be because of the protection of the Earth Goddess, so even when the weather was cold, many crops could still be planted.

Although the weather had turned cold now, taking this opportunity to let the players do more labor was the serious business.

At the very least, they had to complete the novice tasks before they could proceed to the next activities.

Right now, the players were also speculating about the official server opening time.

Up until now, apart from launching an activity after the server closed, the official side had been so mysterious that there hadn't been a single peep.

Every day, people would @Calamity Apostle, but this guy didn't have any reaction at all.

Almost everyone believed that the official side was definitely holding back a big move this time.

At the very least, the number of testers would see a qualitative improvement.

In reality, that was indeed the case. Chen Zhi also knew that he didn't have that much time to delay, so he still had to release this announcement.

Thinking about having to send out so many Helmets again, he also felt a headache, but there really wasn't a good way around it. After all, it was still the testing stage; it was still a bit too early to try to sell Helmets to make money.

【"New Calamity" version 1.1.0 update is coming soon, fixing a large number of bugs, screenshot and recording system test launch! More test qualifications are waiting for you to claim!】 — by: Calamity Apostle

I believe you Believers have waited a long time. After a week of intensive corrections, the game content in the game is now much richer.

The original game tasks were relatively boring and monotonous, but now the game has expanded its task tree. Apart from the initial tasks that need to be completed at the very beginning, other tasks are completely free to complete. Besides novice tasks, you can even choose not to follow the main storyline and instead walk the Branch Line tasks alone, or become a life-skill player.

We have added beginner tasks for the Farm and winery to ensure that Believers can more easily understand how to play the game at the start.

Of course, we will also provide some training for new Believers. For example, regarding language, we will invite professional teachers to teach everyone. After three days of teaching, I believe everyone will be able to conduct basic communication in Tana City.

In addition, we will also arrange some new identities for the Believers. We have been "Xiahui" people for too long, but in reality, we can also be people from other countries; we don't necessarily have to be "Xiahui" people.

Believers can leave comments under the post to talk about what kind of identity you hope to have to increase your immersion.

At the same time, we also encourage players to start businesses. Currently, after a certain degree of turmoil, Tana City has resumed its economic life, but the original state has been broken. The Government Building of Tana City currently hopes to promote employment. If you are interested in starting a business activity, the government will also provide tax-free subsidies. I believe everyone will be very interested.

Furthermore, regarding faith, although the God of Calamity is the deity everyone worships and the deity who summoned everyone to Tana City, He Himself does not exclude new Believers from working for major churches. We have tested that Believers of the God of Calamity can perform some simple work under the War Church, Wealth Church, Wisdom Church, or even the Sun God Cult, and can also obtain awakening improvements. However, the requirements for awakening improvements in these major churches are relatively high; if you don't have the patience to complete the tasks, you won't be able to awaken!

In addition, we have also added photo and video functions. Players can actively choose to take photos and videos and save them, but if you want to publish the content, it needs to be reviewed.

Of course, we are also in the midst of intensive preparations for the next round of testing, which is expected to meet everyone in a week.

The new round of testing will add another 100 players through a lottery, and at the same time, we will add about 300+ test players based on the translation activity. The Helmets for the activity will be mailed out in the near future.

The library activity will also continue. As long as there are no major problems with the translations and a certain quantity is successfully translated, there will be rewards in the form of Helmets or other materials.

We hope everyone will actively participate. The mysterious world of "New Calamity" may just be hidden within these precious books!

Luolita: First! Let me see what good things have been updated!

You'eryuan: I think being a "Xiahui" person is pretty good; after all, we already have a resounding reputation.

Ai Ai who can draw: You didn't tell me about the update content, where did my suggestions go?

Yezi: By the way, where exactly is this photo function?
