Start a Dungeon

Chapter 4 This is Humanity

"oh!!!!!"

Fierce cheers suddenly broke out.

"Won!!"

"Hold!!"

"These damn frogs!"

"If I had known better, I would have bought Louis. I knew that guy would definitely win!"

Some people are sad, some are happy, but more people are rushing to the betting station crazily, because there is less than 5 minutes before the next game starts, and they must place their bets quickly!

Time passed forward a few minutes, and in the domain hall of the dungeon, all the goblins looked up at the display screen in the distance, which was showing the scene of humans starting to select frogs, waiting for the opening of the gate competition.

"Is this method really feasible?"

Maria, who was standing next to Lot, asked as she turned to look at another giant transparent container suspended at the same height next to the big screen - the energy storage device.

After being absorbed, emotions are automatically converted into energy and stored there.

However, the blue gas representing energy in the storage at this time is quite thin, and it seems that there is only a little bit. Although the number appearing on it is beating continuously, the amount added is really pitiful.

Hearing Maria's inquiry, Lott, who was sitting on the king's chair, smiled and shook his head and said:

"We'll see."

The butler said nothing and continued to look at the virtual screen in front of him.

Her body is a white dragon, and like goblins, they are monsters belonging to the dungeon.

The monsters just think that humans like to take risks in dungeons and then stimulate emotions while killing monsters, but they have no idea why humans like to do this.

Later, it was discovered that humans were after gold coins, so they immediately placed a large number of treasure boxes on the road for them to take. However, in addition to increasing the number of people coming and going, as time went by, their emotions gradually stabilized and there was no change. The energy spent in making gold coins was actually spent.

Therefore, the monsters think that humans may not be here for gold coins, so what are they here for?

In fact, in Lott's view, those methods of obtaining gold coins are too simple, and not many people will make bigger waves with something that is easily available.

You will cherish what you can't get, and what others have is the best. This is almost what most people think, and the monsters will probably never understand this.

After withdrawing his thoughts, Lott looked at the huge energy storage device next to him.

Each adventurer will provide 1 to 3 points of energy to the dungeon when he is nervous and worried, and it will exceed 10 or 15 points when he is happy or sad.

The stronger the strength, the greater the energy.

The daily income of the entire dungeon is about 6,000 to 7,000 points - this is just enough to maintain expenses. Many monsters have stopped operating due to lack of energy supply, and due to the long-term lack of supplies, some goblins have begun to show signs of malaise. phenomenon——If this continues, something will happen to the entire dungeon.

But now.

As the game started on the screen, the goblins looked at the numbers in the memory that were growing rapidly in geometric multiples with shocked expressions.

"The energy is continuing to increase! It is continuing to increase!!"

"So fast!"

"Oh my God!"

It reached over 5,000 points in a few minutes? !

This was absolutely unimaginable before - in a few minutes, it almost caught up with the previous day's income?

How can this be? !

Humans just want to get those gold coins? Why have you never been as excited as now? !

Although the goblins looked in disbelief, facts spoke louder than words, and the data in the energy storage continued to soar.

When the frog named Louis won the victory in the picture, all humans fell silent, and the data in the memory suddenly stopped beating. Therefore, all the goblins also held their breaths and looked there.

"oh--!!"

As the humans on the screen roared a lot, the memory reading instantly increased by more than 8,000 points!

Just in this moment, it was comparable to more than the previous day's income. Including the previous few minutes and a round of frog racing, the total income reached 15,000 points! !

A few minutes is worth more than 2 full days of income, and as the next event begins, this number will soar again!

Oh my God

The entire domain hall was silent, but then there was a burst of applause - Maria stood upstairs and applauded involuntarily - although she didn't know what her previous income was, but it really shocked her just now, wasn't it? It refers to energy, but Lott mentioned to her before: the gain and loss of money are directly linked to emotions - turns out it is true? !

When the goblins below heard the applause, they also clapped their hands quickly. There was thunderous applause and everyone was excited to death - judging from this trial operation, the feasibility of the lord's future plan is 200%!

The underground city is finally saved!

"How about Maria?"

Lott sat on the chair, crossing his legs and shaking his wine glass. He looked ahead like a domineering president and asked with a smile, "Great Harvest, did I lie to you?"

Maria leaned over and said respectfully: "I didn't expect humans to be so excited, but why hasn't this happened before?"

Maria sighed while regaining her original calm expression, which should be said to be facial paralysis.

Lott looked at her cold and dull face and said with an extended smile:

"It's the same as when we gain energy."

"I understand this."

"So Maria, what would you do if someone took the initiative to send you energy?"

"I would be happy."

"What about sending you off non-stop?"

"I'd be happier."

Lott was speechless and asked again:

"Then you can find a lot of energy on the roadside?"

"I will feel even more happy."

MD, this topic cannot be continued.

Lott said helplessly:

"Human beings are different. What they need is surprise. Even if you give them money, after a long time, when they find gold coins on the roadside again, they will just put them away without any fluctuation in their hearts. When they have been accustomed to something or something for a long time It creates inertia.”

Hearing this, Maria tilted her head and thought for a long time, but still didn't understand why.

"I don't understand. Shouldn't I be happy to have energy?"

Lott immediately pinched the bridge of his nose, wondering whether the butler was too stupid, or whether all monsters had this kind of behavior. When he thought of the goblins celebrating below, he finally came to the conclusion:

All monsters have this single brain circuit, and they have no idea what humans want.

Thinking of this, Lott finally spread his hands helplessly and said:

"Maybe you don't understand very well, but I can only say that for humans, the more they don't get, the more they cherish it."

"That sounds so mean."

Maria gave a pertinent evaluation, and Lott smiled noncommittally, then pointed at the designated adventurer mercenary named Gil on the screen and said:

"When we asked the monster to give him gold coins before, what was the energy index generated?"

"Five o'clock," Maria replied quickly.

"So now when he wins, how much is it."

As Lott finished speaking, the goblins quickly called up the emotion indicator named Gil, with a big 30 on it! And it continues to leak out! Clearly excited.

Why does this happen? ! When he gave him money for free, his heart was completely calm, but when he won money, he was so excited?

The monsters here are probably beyond your imagination.

"This is what humans are."

Lott lamented that at this time, something happened on the screen. (To be continued)
