Chapter 119: Special Quest (Part 1)
But tonight, he found out that the name was being mentioned a lot because Cha Dan-pung had ended his live streaming early, leaving many viewers disappointed that they couldn't watch more.
Hanjun thought about it and realized that the limited number of beta test players had drawn too much attention.
If Cha Dan-pung logged off, there was no other way for people to keep up with the game.
More importantly, the main storyline quests in the game weren't available to all players.
In the future, there might be multiple main quests running simultaneously.
To help players stay informed about what's happening in the game, he thought it might be a good idea to start an official live streaming.
After deciding this, Hanjun started the live streaming.
As soon as it went live, it immediately attracted many users who are interested in the World of Eorera.
Players were surprised to find that the game's officials had started the live streaming.
They quickly flooded into the live streaming.
Then they realized that the live streaming showed a fixed camera view, like a webcam, focusing on what was happening at the entrance of the church.
This kind of live streaming might seem a little bit boring at first, but when the viewers noticed the title was "Live Streaming (Test)," they understood what was going on.
Even though the fixed camera angle seemed dull, the audience still found ways to enjoy it.
For example, they started observing if NPCs had any patterns in their movements, how realistic the game's flowers, birds, and trees looked, and what the beta test players were up to.
Just from these small details, they managed to find a lot of fun.

The next day, when Cha Dan-pung woke up, he didn't log into the game right away.
Instead, he checked the stats on the video he uploaded yesterday.
Yesterday, he posted the first episode of his gameplay video, and today it had already reached 200,000 views, making it onto the trending list.
"Nice!" Cha Dan-pung silently cheered himself on.
Just as he was about to log into the game, he heard from some fans that <<God's Games Online>> official channel had also started live streaming.
This really startled Cha Dan-pung.
He wasn't worried about other streamers since they didn't have beta test access, but the official live stream was a different story.
It could steal some of his audience and take away some of his traffic.
And, of course, he couldn't just tell the game official not to broadcast their live streaming, which put him in a bit of an awkward situation.
Cha Dan-pung quickly clicked on the live streaming link his fans provided.
When he checked it out, he realized that the official live streaming was just a fixed camera that was placed at the entrance of the church in Ulon Town.
The viewers could watch the townspeople coming and going, as well as Father Barry who is cleaning the church early in the morning.
Whenever there was any movement on the screen, the chat would take note of it.
From the number of viewers, it was clear that many people found it kind of boring but still liked to hang out in the live streaming as if it was something totally new to them.
Cha Dan-pung let out a sigh of relief.
It seemed like the official live streaming wasn't trying to compete with his for views, and the content of the live streaming was different enough that he could relax a bit.
He spent some time watching the live streaming and noticed that the viewers were already pretty familiar with it.
Whenever they saw a figure walking by and entering the church, they knew it was a player coming to do their daily quest with Father Barry.
Cha Dan-pung looked closely and realized that the person on screen was Spicy Flavor Fairy.
"Is my teammate already online this early?" Cha Dan-pung was surprised and quickly logged into the game.
He remembered that they had an important quest to do today.
Hanjun had mentioned they would be heading to Lindblum City this morning, so he couldn't afford to be late.
Once in the game, Master PungPong found Spicy Flavor Fairy, who was indeed doing daily quests.
Spicy Flavor Fairy explained, "Traveling in the game isn't very convenient right now. It'll take at least four or five days to get to Lindblum City and come back to Ulon Town, so I figured I might as well finish the daily quests while I have time. Gaining some extra experience points is always helpful."
Their experience points weren't just for leveling up.
A lot of experience points were needed to upgrade skills as well, so simply leveling up wouldn't be enough to improve their strength.
Spicy Flavor Fairy was very organized when it came to these things, but other players who had chosen the Priest class were still confused.
They didn't know how to select skills or choose which direction to level up in.
Spicy Flavor Fairy was thinking of making a guide to teach them how to use their experience points wisely, but it seemed like that would have to wait until after this quest was finished.
Master PungPong thought this made sense, so he also joined in on doing daily quests.
When Flower Deer logged in, she quietly started doing her quests too.
However, even after they all finished their daily quests, they still hadn't seen Pork Rib Boss log in.
By this time, Father Barry had already gathered some of the braver townspeople, armed with weapons, to head to Lindblum City with the heroes.
Everyone was waiting at the southern exit of Ulon Town, just waiting for the last teammate who had accepted the quest to log in.
Master PungPong started to get a little bit worried when Pork Rib Boss still hadn't shown up.
As mentioned earlier, if something was wrong, the teammates would be able to tell right away.
With Pork Rib Boss being so late to log in today, the team was starting to get concerned.
