Chapter 1375: 452. Got shocked.

“Isn’t maintenance done yet?”

“It’s only been two hours, wait a bit longer.”

In the offline studio, the Winter Melon and Kelp brothers, utterly bored, sat at their respective stations chatting and scrolling through videos.

The sudden disconnection caught them off guard and left them anxious, fearing that it might be their fault if their first participation in an Alliance task ended in failure.

Fortunately, the situation soon took a turn for the better.

It turned out that the disconnection wasn’t an isolated incident but rather a serious event that affected many players.

According to the Game’s Official Website, the main cause was the enormous number of players inside and outside the Black Hole Magic Academy, which led to the server crash.

The Game officials were now urgently opening new servers to alleviate the traffic pressure near the Black Hole Magic Academy.

The players didn’t care about the server issues or the player count.

All they wanted to know was where the Company’s conscience was, where their sincerity was, and where the compensation was.

Facing the players’ clamor, the Company introduced a generous compensation for the disconnection.

For every 1 hour of game maintenance, the Company would provide all affected players with a Double Credit Card.

If maintenance exceeded 3 hours, then for every additional hour, another Double Credit Card would be added to the existing compensation.

At a time when players were engrossed in earning daily Academy points and raising Magic Pets, academic points were the lifeblood of the players.

At least 3 extra Double Credit Cards out of nowhere made the players who hadn’t been disconnected green with envy.

Many couldn’t wait to pilot their ships and quantum leap toward the Black Hole Magic Academy.

This opportunistic behavior was quickly curtailed by the Game officials.

Starting from 10 minutes after maintenance, the Black Hole Magic Academy was removed from the list of quantum leap destinations, and no player could leap there.

This measure couldn’t completely extinguish the players’ desire for compensation.

A small number of highly motivated players first leap to the Lisom Star System where the Black Hole Magic Academy was located, descended near an unregulated celestial body, and then went full throttle, cruising at top speed towards the Academy.

Such behavior was admirable, formidable, but let’s just say it was amusing.

The Ground Age already had a saying, “Watching the mountain run dead horse,” so how could the Space Age not have one?

Although the Black Hole Magic Academy seemed close, it was actually tens of thousands of kilometers away.

Even if the ship’s thrusters were smoking from the effort, the players’ clunkers wouldn’t stand a chance of making it there.

“But, it’s not impossible.”

Winter Melon, staring at the livestream, suddenly muttered and started discussing the content with Kelp:
