Undead Scourge: Creeping Shadows
[Event Description: Thanks to the efforts of the powerful and noble God of Games and his believers, the peace that was won after much difficulty did not last for long before the mysterious shadows once again appeared in the Prime Material Plane! Evil energy had latched onto corpses, awakening the dead who had been slumbering beneath the earth. The mastermind's manipulation and the instinctive hatred of the living had driven them to seek vengeance against all living creatures! Seeing that the safety of countless innocent citizens was threatened, the kind God of Games was unwilling to see the world plunged into misery and suffering. Hence, he had once again decreed that his valiant believers would triumph over the enemies who blasphemed the dead and toyed with their souls, and reclaim light for the world!]
[Event Date: Undetermined, subject to the event post pinned on the Player forums]
[Event Details: The event is divided into two battlefields: Night of the Avenging Dead and Corpse Dragon Crusade. Players may choose one or both battlefields.] [During the event, every Player would be instantly resurrected once per day (10 EXP minus current level). Moreover, Resurrection Coins could be drawn from either the Personal Prize Pool or the World Prize Pool during the event.]
[Night of the Avenging Dead event description: Earn RIP Points by slaying the undead of Sotimi. RIP Points would be awarded depending on the type of undead slain (Click here for details).] [RIP Points could be drawn from the Personal Prize Pool.]
[Zombie Dragon Crusade: Stop the zombie dragon that is heading towards Tunaya through skirmishes or defensive battles. If the zombie dragon is defeated before it reaches Tunaya, the Player's side wins, or the Player's side loses.] [Players who participated in the Corpse Dragon Crusade will be rewarded according to their contributions (Click here for details).]
[Personal Prize Pool: Players could draw an unlimited number of times from the Personal Prize Pool by paying 100 RIP Points during the event. The Personal Prize Pool has a total of 500 rewards, with the grand prizes being World Prize Pool Lottery Ticket, Equipment Strengthening Success Rate Increase Voucher, and Resurrection Coins (which would automatically turn into Resurrection Crosses after the event). The Personal Prize Pool would be reset after drawing all three grand prizes.]

The new announcement completely ignited the long-dormant passion of the Players. The Players, who had been a little discouraged by Nightcry's disgusting actions, were once again excited.
When the Players who were carrying bricks everywhere saw the generous rewards in the personal prize pool, they all dropped what they were doing and headed to Tunaya through the lifestone. Their gritted teeth and determined looks would have made anyone unaware believe that they were Tunaya natives who swore to live and die with Tunaya. The wood elves of Trinia were left dumbstruck …
On the other hand, the Players who couldn't make it back for some special reason, such as Zonyan's party who was farming Affinity with the Long Ears at the Western Continent, lamented that they were born in the wrong time and wanted to kill themselves to return to the city.
As for the Players who had died in the battle against Nightcry, they didn't hesitate to use their daily auto-resurrection to join the revelry of the other Players.
In a dozen minutes or so, the citizens of Tunaya could clearly feel that there were some fellows in the city who were different from the rest.
Since the Brilliant White Church and the Temple of Glory were the churches that most people believed in in the first place, it was difficult for them to hide something major from their believers. Moreover, with other churches adding fuel to the fire, most of the citizens of Tunaya were now aware that a powerful monster that even the Brilliant White Church and the Temple of Glory couldn't do anything about was approaching.
Fear and worry shrouded all of Tunaya, leaving the atmosphere in the city extremely oppressive.
And that was when a group of strange fellows who brimmed with inexplicable vigor suddenly appeared, with faces that said 'I don't know where this is or why the enemy is here, but I'm going to blow up the heads of the invaders, and if I have the chance, I'm going to blow up the heads of our allies too!'.
If it wasn't for the fact that there weren't that many of them, only about 200 people (there were also some players who couldn't make it back in time, as well as some newbies who didn't understand or weren't interested in the event), the entire city's style would have been distorted by them …
Come to think of it, it was weird that the Players were clearly preparing for the event, and yet the atmosphere was livelier than a banquet or a festival.
Perhaps in a certain sense, the activities in the game could be considered a real festival for the gamers.
"Oh, oh! That's such an interesting way of rewarding! As expected of the God of Games — he surprises us every time! " After Edward explained patiently, Joe, who finally understood the event's mechanics slapped his huge chest muscles and exclaimed excitedly. "What are we waiting for? Let's go fight Sotimi's undead!"
"Wait for Gou Dan to revive, of course … Moreover, even if the Night of the Vengeful Dead benefits the Players and allows them to draw from the prize pool earlier, that's not actually the case." Edward shook his head after carefully studying the event's mechanics. "The undead over at Sotimi are awarded RIP points based on their type, and from the list above, it generally follows the rule of 'the more powerful the undead, the more points'. Killing a hundred Vengeful Dead Decaying Skeletons wouldn't be worth a single Vengeful Dead Decaying Orc. "
Joe quickly opened the list of RIP points corresponding to the undead in the event information, and pretended to understand it as he stared at the dense text, nodding meaningfully with a straight face.
"On the other hand, the more powerful the undead, the deeper they would hide. Therefore, we would only be fighting the weakest and the ones with the least points, and wasting time on them isn't worth it at all!" Edward didn't care if Joe understood or not, and continued as if he was sorting out his thoughts. "But it's different with the zombie dragon! Its total HP is fixed and limited, and if we kill one more, the others get one less contribution! By the same logic, the more others kill, the less we get. Moreover, judging from the contribution points, the zombie dragon's rewards are even better than Sotimi's! "
"If it's a lucky draw, the individual prize pool will be the same, and from the name of the world prize pool, it's obvious that the gold world prize pool that appears at the end is the best. It doesn't matter if they give up the bronze and silver prize pools in the beginning!" At that, Edward decided on their party's strategy. "That's why we'll join the zombie dragon crusade first, and farm the Night of the Vengeful Dead if we have time!"
