Cruel Malevolence was infuriated by the Gnome. He applied pressure and broke the Gnome's neck, then threw the body to the side.
"Capture them! I'll interrogate them!"
Cruel Malevolence was curious why these Gnomes weren't affected by the Murmurs of the Ancient Gods. These scumbags who had no respect for the Ancient Gods should be trapped in the Nightmare after hearing the Murmurs of the Ancient Gods. Only true believers weren't affected.
Therefore, he wanted to capture these Gnomes and interrogate them properly.
These Gnomes ran fast, but they couldn't outrun Werewolves.
Many Werewolves pursued the Gnomes.
The Gnomes saw that they couldn't escape, so they scolded their dead comrade before unsheathing their swords and engaging the Werewolves that caught up with them.
The Gnomes were quickly killed by the Werewolves. Only three Gnomes survived, and they were full of blood and grotesque wounds when they were captured by the Werewolves.
The three Gnomes were LeatherBear, DemonRealmEvilKiss, and VeryNormalResearcher.
They were placed in front of Cruel Malevolence, after which, they started chatting.
"I should have followed the Guild team. I won't follow the random teams in the future!" said LeatherBear, who was bleeding profusely and had a broken arm.
"LeatherBear, don't be angry. We won't form a team with that silly dude."
Another Gnome said, "We were sabotaged this time. Could that guy be from the Meat Vegetable Rice Alliance Guild?"
"The more you mention it, the greater the possibility. He must be from the Meat Vegetable Rice Alliance to create trouble for LeatherBear!"
"Enough!" Cruel Malevolence roared, furious that he was being ignored. He gritted his teeth and growled.
Cruel Malevolence gazed fiercely at the three Gnomes and asked, "You pathetic scumbags. What devious ways are you using to negate the Nightmare effects? Tell me quickly so that I can give you a painless death."
Cruel Malevolence was very furious and threatened them. He expected them to cry and plead for mercy, but one of the Gnomes VeryNormalResearcher shouted, "Gosh, what's the situation? Am I being interrogated by the AI?"
Another Gnome said, "That's interactivity. It may be a Strange Encounter Mission!"
LeatherBear said excitedly, "Really? The enemy AI will provide a Strange Encounter Mission? Am I that lucky? What do we do? Do we defect?"
"I don't know, let's see what the Werewolf says."
The three Gnomes disregarded Cruel Malevolence and chatted.
Cruel Malevolence reached out and grabbed DemonRealmEvilKiss. He bared his fangs and bit on DemonRealmEvilKiss' neck. After tearing his neck, DemonRealmEvilKiss became a bloody mess. Then, he remained motionless after being thrown to the ground.
VeryNormalResearcher lowered his head and looked at DemonRealmEvilKiss, who was covered in grotesque wounds. He thought deeply and asked, "How did this game pass the censorship board?"
"Stop spouting nonsense! Otherwise, you'll end up like him!" Cruel Malevolence interrupted their chatting. He grabbed a Gnome and asked, "Tell me! How did you negate the effects of the Murmurs of the Ancient Gods?"
"Negate the effects? Perhaps because we're the heroes of the Underworld. We're the chosen ones!" the Gnome shouted. He was thrown to the ground after his neck was broken.
Only LeatherBear was left.
Cruel Malevolence grabbed LeatherBear, who thought about the immersive nature of the game as discussed by the veteran gamers in the forum. In order to propagate the Plot, she had to pretend to be a native in the game. She replied, "That's Mana! I don't know Mana!"
"Mana? Perhaps it's a superior Devil?" Cruel Malevolence muttered, and LeatherBear shouted, "Yes, yes! My Dungeon Lord is a superior Devil! Sherlie, no, he's Lord Sherlock! The ruler of Eternal Kingdom!"
"Sherlock? I've never heard of that name. How many of you?" Cruel Malevolence asked.
"About two thousand. We're making camp outside the northern gate of Winterfell." LeatherBear was afraid that Cruel Malevolence might kill her, leading to the Strange Encounter Mission being lost, so she divulged the information.
"Hehe, only two thousand. You're overestimating your abilities, " Cruel Malevolence said sarcastically. Then he ordered his subordinates, "Bring a thousand troops and destroy their camp."
Soon, the Werewolves and Orcs left in the direction of the northern gate.
"Wait, is there anything I can do to help? Are there any rewards? What are you doing in Winterfell? Where is the BOSS? Give me some information?" LeatherBear asked nervously.
"Pitiful scumbag." Cruel Malevolence grabbed LeatherBear's neck. He slowly applied pressure as he loved this kind of torture. Then he said slowly, "We'll occupy Winterfell's Dungeon Core. Then, using it as our base of operation, we'll set up Teleport Portals for the real Ancient Gods army to arrive in Winterfell. The time and space gap was a distraction, all of you were fooled! Our target was the Winterfell Dungeon Core! It's too late for you to know because you have no chance to destroy the Rune Mana Formation at the Dungeon Core. Unless..."
Cruel Malevolence enjoyed the slow death of LeatherBear. He said happily, "Unless you swallow the entire Dungeon Core of Winterfell. But that's impossible! Hahaha!"
Cruel Malevolence broke LeatherBear's neck and threw her to the side.
Cruel Malevolence looked in another direction. Another group of green-skinned Gnomes appeared. When they saw the scene, they turned and fled.
"Capture them!" Cruel Malevolence ordered his subordinates. He was excited about having more targets for torture.
...
In the Airship that was moored at the camp located outside the northern gate of Winterfell, a Gnome, LeatherBear, revived at the Rune Mana Formation. She immediately shouted, "Prepare! A thousand Ancient Gods believers are coming! They are well equipped! The condition for winning the Battle Campaign Scenario is to swallow Winterfell's Dungeon Core. Who can do that?"
There were only about 500 gamers left in the camp. They panicked and were in chaos, and a few of the gamers quickly went offline.
"I'll post on the forum to get reinforcements!"
"Gosh, let's organize our defenses! The enemy is attacking our camp!"
"Let's call the Guilds for help!"
"There will be deaths in the Plot, don't panic."
"Magic Cannons! Prepare the Magic Cannons!"
...
The gamers started discussing strategies for the impending attack. Finally, the Guild leaders decided to push aside their differences and collaborate for this Battle Campaign Scenario. They would settle their differences back in Eternal Kingdom.
Everyone agreed to cooperate.
Previously, it was impossible for Guilds to work together. The feuds of the Guilds were like grievances caused by the killing of their fathers. The Guilds could be friendly yesterday and be enemies the next day. From there on, it was only the daily killing of each other.
All the Guild leaders would also spend lots of money to buy houses in order to raise their Guild's reputation.
But the game "Dungeon" was different. The scenes and missions were all one-time affairs. If the Battle Campaign Scenario failed because of the Guilds' differences, then all the gamers would be offended.
A single player didn't have any influence, but if a Guild offended the rest of the gamers, then the Guild wouldn't be able to survive in the game.
Everyone reached a common agreement rapidly. Then the gamers returned to the camp quickly while the gamers at the camp started building the most basic defenses...
