Chapter 112: Preparing For a Counter Attack
Even among players who seemed to be constantly on the forums, there weren’t any particularly significant discussions going on.
Most players seemed to be sticking to the outskirts or cities close to monster territories, farming the monsters invading them.
As a result, these cities were in a constant state of readiness, causing disruptions in logistics. Prices of resources and consumable items seemed to be gradually increasing.
However, most players viewed this as a trade-off for gaining XP. They were willing to incur increased expenses in exchange for higher experience gains and weren’t actively seeking solutions.
It’s not that they didn’t comprehend the situation fully. They simply weighed the pros and cons, prioritizing their own experience efficiency over the city’s economy.
The players advocating for NPC residents were simply adopting a different playstyle.
However, in some cities, the city’s knight orders and such were taking steps to resolve the situation.
They had already subjugated the monsters or groups believed to be the leaders of the current threat in their respective monster territories. While it might not be lucrative as an event, it could be deemed beneficial for the NPC residents.
Players migrating from such cities to others had inadvertently caused prices to soar in places ruled by more self-centered leaders. For the inhabitants, it was a difficult situation.
