With this in mind, Tony logged into the official forum.
And sure enough, he saw many similar new posts on the official forum.
All the posts were published today, and the tistamps were all concentrated after he arrived.
Many players encountered the sa situation as him, arriving at the wrong location.
Moreover, the arrival locations weren’t just on the West Continent, but everywhere in the Dawn World.
Tony was relatively lucky among the players who arrived at the wrong location; so unlucky fellows fell directly into the sea, while one ended up in the nest of a Fallen Magical Beast and was GG’d in an instant.
However, this incident didn’t cause too much trouble for the players.
Because everyone starts at level 1, even if they die, there’s no penalty; they just resurrect in Holy City Shantem where the World Tree branches are planted, without any major issues.
Of course, now that Tony has decided to travel with Ados and the others, he probably can’t use this thod.
Not only that, he’s already at Black Iron Rank, and without enough resurrection coins, if he dies, he’ll lose a level.
But at least, this gave Tony so confidence.
He knows that as long as he’s willing, he can "automatically return to town" at any ti.
"But... why did this happen? Could it be a system glitch?"
Knowing he’s not the only one facing this issue, Tony beca curious about the reasons for arriving at the wrong location.
Continuing to browse through the forum posts, he quickly found the answer.
It was a post by a player with the ID "Annie from France," and the post was in French.
Although Tony doesn’t speak French, translation software in the virtual age has co a long way, allowing for a one-click solution.
After browsing the post, Tony understood the cause and effect of the incident.
The accident wasn’t a system glitch, but a human error.
The matter dates back to the construction of the cross-continental long-distance teleportation array, which is bidirectional, located between Dawn Fortress and Holy City Shantem.
Actually, the energy cores for the teleportation array had been found by players three days ago.
The Magic Energy Core is the most crucial elent for the long-distance teleportation array; with the core, the rest is easy to accomplish.
Dawn Fortress and Holy City Shantem began the construction process for the array simultaneously and completed it in three days.
However, during today’s debugging of the newly constructed teleportation array, the chosen Magic Energy Core malfunctioned.
Perhaps due to aging, the Magic Energy Core at Dawn Fortress exploded on site, directly causing a space storm affecting half of Shantem and all of Dawn Fortress...
Most players were fine, but the unlucky ones descending in Shantem were directly teleported due to the spatial disturbances...
Including Tony.
Seeing this, Tony couldn’t help but smile wryly.
It was just bad luck for him; if he had logged in a few minutes later, waiting for the space storm’s aftermath to fade, he wouldn’t have been tossed directly to the West Continent.
But... it’s also good that, because of this unexpected twist, he got to et Ados and the others...
Towards the end of the post, Annie from France also issued a high-priced reward: if anyone can provide a new Magic Energy Core, they will receive a substantial bounty of one million contribution points from the European Continent Alliance and the ngng Committee.
Seeing this, Tony raised an eyebrow:
"ngng Committee?"
He was familiar with the European Continent Alliance; before entering the ga, he had done his howork and knew it was the largest guild of international players, also controlling the guild on the East Continent of Dawn World.
As for the ngng Committee...
This peculiar na seed to ring a bell for Tony.
Curiously, he searched for it, and after so research, he finally learned of its origins.
"Turns out it’s one of the seven major guilds of Tianchao!"
Looking at the virtual encyclopedia’s introduction, Tony was enlightened.
With a large number of players from Tianchao, the recent updates have seen the total player count exceed five million.
The multitude of players naturally results in a multitude of guilds, and among them, the seven largest guilds each have more than 300,000 players, with forces spread across various dinsions of the Elf Kingdom.
The ngng Committee is one of them; it’s said to control nearly half the properties of Segis World’s major cities and also seized an exclusive dinsion in the New World.
Of course, due to the smaller size compared to Dawn World, the World Tree branches were inserted relatively late, so it wasn’t chosen as a starting point like Dawn World.
However, the ngng Committee also has a base in Dawn World, which is none other than Dawn Fortress on the West Continent!
This ti, the construction of the long-distance teleportation array was a collaboration between the ngng Committee and the European Continent Alliance.
"With this perspective... the Magic Energy Core that Ados and the others are escorting is actually the key item for building the teleportation array, so I must accomplish this task well."
"I just need to confirm my exact location. If I rember correctly, I once saw on a YouTube live stream that the official forum seems to have shared maps of explored areas... and they seem downloadable."
Tony thought as he browsed the posts.
With this notion in mind, Tony logged into the forum’s information section, and after a search, he finally found the shared exploration map of Dawn World.
His eyes lit up, and he promptly downloaded the map data and loaded it into the ga.
With the map loaded, Tony finally confird his location.
"About five hundred kiloters in a straight line from Dawn Fortress, huh? That’s quite a distance... walking off and on, it might take a month, and the map in between is almost entirely black, so it’s unlikely to go straight all the ti; the actual journey will be even longer."
"Not to ntion the possibility of encountering formidable beasts... the data says the West Continent’s beast tide is quite severe..."
"Perhaps I should also actively contact the European Continent Alliance; in case it’s necessary, I need them to respond..."
Tony thought.
He didn’t plan to contact the ngng Committee directly.
As an international player, his impression of Tianchao players isn’t very good because there are so many of them, and they like to group together. If you ss with one, soon a bunch will co along.
Moreover, Tianchao players are overall stronger; since the dinsion wars began, international players have had frequent conflicts with them, always resulting in losses.
This led to the formation of the European Continent Alliance, a large guild uniting players from countries led by Europe and Arica.
Thinking about this, Tony found Annie from France’s ga UID (note: a nuric ID assigned by the system during user registration), searched in the "Add New Friend" section, and sent a friend request.
Of course, he didn’t forget to include his intention to escort the Magic Energy Core in the notes.
Unfortunately, the guild leader of the European Continent Alliance seed to have disabled friend requests, resulting in Tony’s application being rejected.
He frowned slightly, feeling a bit frustrated.
Famous people are a hassle; in a large ga where well-known figures are common, it’s normal not to be able to add them as friends.
Sighing, Tony turned his attention to the end of the post again.
At the end of the post, a contact UID for the reward was left, accompanied by a nickna in Chinese.
Translated into English, the na roughly ans "Little Bird That Chirps."
After hesitating, Tony finally decided to apply for a friend request, still explaining his intention of escorting the Magic Energy Core.
This ti, the friend request was quickly accepted.
With a soft system ping, a new friend’s avatar lit up in the contact list, while the notification sound of incoming ssages echoed, and new ssages appeared in Tony’s view:
"Hello, I’m the Vice President of the ngng Committee, Gugu Bird."
