The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

"Catastrophe OL" official website.

It's currently peak time for logging in and out, and the forum is bustling with activity.

Due to the influx of Life Professional Players engaging in massive building projects outside North Peak Mine recently, the North Peak City sub-forum has become the liveliest section on the entire website, with new posts popping up constantly.

Beast Senior: "Brothers!!! I declare that 'Catastrophe OL' is the most badass simulation game I've played this year!"

Can't Afford It: "Damn, this game is actually a simulation game?! (stunned)"

Rin Little Demon: "Shocked."

Feathered Vulture: "Breaking news—Combat profession players are already relics of the bygone era even before entering their prime. (sarcasm)"

Legendary Salty Fish King: "As proof, rather than waiting for the dev team to update, players have been updating the game themselves. In just half a month, we've got steel smelting, brick baking, and cement mixing all lined up. (sarcasm)"

Italian Pasta Mixed with Cement No. 42: "Hijacking this thread to advertise! Chromium-plated rebar! Useful as building material and weapons! Everyone who has tried it swears by it!"

Cement Too Watery: "Titanium Magnesium Cement! Rich in minerals!"

Gou Shi: "Legendary! There are even advertisements now."

One Mouthful of Chemical Pool: "Bah, leftovers from what I've already played."

Zheng Fangxing: "You've already played it??"

Knowledge Explosion: "Honestly, I think this stuff has been in the game since long ago, but no one developed the simulation-style gameplay until now."

Gotham Model Citizen: "Blame Yiye Zhiqu for not writing a guide. (sarcasm)"

Yiye Zhiqu: "What does it have to do with me? I'm playing it like an RPG. (sweat)"

Beast Senior: "Speaking of which, I noticed how thoughtful the NPCs in this game are. At my sawmill, I hired some carpenters to work, right? Even though it's their first time seeing Netherworld Language-powered chainsaws, they quickly got the hang of it. They even built a contraption to fix the chainsaw in place and threw logs down a slope to pass through the saw, doubling the work efficiency!"

Yiye Zhiqu: "That's just because you lack experience. Isn't that how wood is processed in real life? (side-eye)"

Beast Senior: "Ahem, true, I've never worked at a lumber mill… but isn't the point whether they could even come up with that idea?!"

Gou Shi: "They're uneducated, not stupid."

One Sword Seal Throat: "+1, the NPCs in this game are pretty smart, honestly even a little cunning in my opinion."

Want to Be a Corpse: "Now that you mention it, they really do feel like real people, with no uncanny valley effect whatsoever!"

Chips Sooner or Later at the Office: "+1, sometimes I even feel they resemble real people more than my fake coworkers do."

Urban Subordinate: "Hahahaha! LOL!"

Emotionally Stable: "That's not the same. Your work pays for your boss's car and house; their work builds their own homes. You think your coworkers are fake; your coworkers think the same of you."

Chips Sooner or Later at the Office: "Sigh, how I wish I could teleport into the game. Every day in there feels so full of promise. T.T"

Gou Shi: "If you really teleported into the game, you wouldn't think that anymore. (sarcasm)"

Help Me, I'm Scared: "Begging for a teleportation ticket; I want to be Lord Demon King's minion! T.T"

Don't Shout, I'm Afraid Too: "I want to be Lord Demon King's mount! T.T"

Charge, No Fear: "I want to be Lord Demon King's dog! T.T"

Little Wan Can't Eat Enough: "???"

Shark East and West: "Damn, you guys play on a whole other level of twisted."

Jingluo Nanbei: "Eye-opening. (shocked)"

...

Kao Planet, Outpost Fortress.

The Moral Square in front of the Demon King Statue was bustling with people.

Discussing topics mentioned earlier on the official website, the Pig-headed Knight couldn't help but mutter a complaint under his breath.

"These newbies act shocked like it's their first day in the beta test."

The Minotaur Warrior shot him a glance.

"If you slack off for a few more days, you'll be no different than the newbies."

The Pig-headed Knight got anxious upon hearing this.

"Hey! At least I've got combat experience, right? Just a little lacking in game experience!"

"You're full of crap game experience," the Minotaur Warrior couldn't hold back his retort. "If you hadn't spent all your Contribution Points on rebirth and resurrection, you'd have hit Bronze by now!"

The Pig-headed Knight's expression turned awkward, and his voice weakened.

"I'm just making an early investment to experience more! Hehe."

The Minotaur Warrior rolled his eyes internally, choosing to ignore him. The Pig-headed Knight quickly switched topics, fishing for something to say.

"Speaking of which, the gameplay style in North Peak City gave me an idea. How about we build a few houses on Kao Planet too?"

Hu Wan shot him a sideways glance and quipped.

"Who'd move in, ghosts?"

Yiye Zhiqu spoke casually.

"Each profession has its own gameplay style. Let's just focus on our own domain."

Since arriving on Kao Planet, his Experience had skyrocketed, leaving others far behind.

Currently, his Level had reached 25, just one step away from breaking through to Bronze and advancing to Fine Steel!

Hu Wan, who frequently teamed up with him, was no different. Her Level had reached 22, likely the second highest on the server.

As for the dynamic duo of the Minotaur Warrior and Pig-headed Knight, their levels varied, with one in the teens and the other stuck at Black Iron Peak.

But lately, the latter had wised up and went on a grinding spree, likely breaking through his bottleneck soon.

The Pig-headed Knight muttered a complaint under his breath.

"Strongly demand the dog devs update more content here on Kao Planet… There aren't even any natives here."
