Restarting the game was a very quick process, so right after going back to the game's start menu, Ned was explaining to viewers what was going on.
"The last time there was an update like this, the game had unlocked the option for people to livestream while playing, what will the game add now?" Ned asked viewers.
[PParker: Maybe another dimension like hell? ]
[Crawler: I think it might be new monsters! ]
...
Viewers started making their own guesses, but when Ned walked over to the start menu screen, he was surprised by what he saw.
[Minecraft ]
[Single Player ]
[Multiplayer - Available ]
[Quit ]
"Multiplayer mode is available!!" Ned yelled in excitement, making viewers as excited as he was.
[PParker: Hurry, start playing, I want to know what it's like! ]
[Crawler: Damn! I wish I could be playing, but my teacher forbade me... ]
[PinkyPenny: I feel sorry for the comment above. ]
[Randomviewer1: I feel sorry for the comment above. +1 ]
[Randomviewer2: I feel sorry for the comment above. +2 ]
[Randomviewer10: I feel sorry for the comment above. +10 ]
[Randomviewer50: I feel sorry for the comment above. +50 ]
Kurt almost cried when reading these comments, but curiosity about the multiplayer mode kept him focused on the computer screen while he waited for Ned to play.
And Ned didn't let these people down. When clicking [Multiplayer ], another window appeared.
[Hypixel - 15/5,000 ]
[Create own server? ]
Ned didn't want to create his own server, so without thinking twice he clicked on Hypixel and was teleported to that world.
What he saw around him stunned Ned.
Unlike the simple castle he was building, the buildings in this world were gigantic and very well made.
There were very tall houses with beautiful roofs, small simple houses, stalls with villagers behind them who seemed to be selling something, and most attractive, a large purple portal in front of it.
"That portal leads to hell?" Ned asked himself in surprise. He had never seen such a large portal, he even felt intimidated by it.
Around it were 15 more surprised players looking at the big portal.
Looking around, Ned saw that they all looked the same as he did, which made him a little uncomfortable. The only difference was two players who appeared to be girls, who had a female skin.
But before Ned could complain about it, he saw a person different from the others.
He was a player with long black hair, a brown shirt and gray pants. On the back of this player was a red cape with the face of a creeper that swayed in the wind. Above that player's head was a name.
[Notch ]
This made other players' attention shift from the portal to that player immediately.
"Hey buddy, how did you change your appearance? And where did you get this cape, is it an item?" Ned ran and asked this unknown player. For some reason Ned felt that this cover made this player really cool.
The player stopped and looked at Ned, before cracking a smile and pointing to a Villager, then he turned and continued walking between the houses in that place and disappeared out of sight of the players.
Seeing the villager that this player had pointed to, the other players ran to that spot before a screen appeared in front of them.
[Would you like to change your appearance? You can only exchange again after 7 days. ]
Without thinking twice Ned began to change his appearance to a little darker skin, a yellow shirt and black pants, besides a crown on his head. It was a very simple look, but it already made Ned feel that he was different from the others.
The other players also started to change their appearance, there were even two people who put on an outfit similar to Captain America's uniform and started laughing about it as they hugged each other.
But Ned noticed that there was no cape for him to choose. Then he looked around and saw a gold banner with the word VIP on it.
Curious he approached the flag and saw another screen appearing in front of him.
[VIP Banner ]
[The advantages for VIP players are... ]
[Would you like to become a VIP? ]
Ned saw that the price was only $5, so he paid immediately. He managed to earn a lot more than that while doing a livestream, so he didn't bother to become a Vip.
Soon he chose a golden cape and put it on his back.
When walking down the streets, the other players were surprised by this player's cape and also ran into the Banner before putting on their own capes to feel special.
While they were doing this, the number of players in the Lobby increased a lot.
Initially there were less than 20 people, but now it was getting pretty busy with apparently more than 100 people walking around the place to explore.
"Let's play a game?" Ned asked the chat excitedly.
Without him noticing, his livestream, which previously had only 500 people, now had more than 900 people, probably because of the novelty of this new mode.
Initially it seemed interesting to see him playing alone in the world, but at some point it got a little repetitive, but now it was different, he was in a public place with over 100 people, and they were all square like him, but as weird as that was , for some reason people accepted it very well and started to feel that it was cute.
While Ned was trying out Multiplayer mode, Kurt was on the verge of tears in his room.
Multiplayer mode looked like a lot of fun, but he couldn't play!
As he went to the cafeteria for dinner with the other students, he noticed that they all had the same frustrated expression on their faces, probably also wanting to play Minecraft Multiplayer mode, but because of the teachers they couldn't.
Seeing how depressed the students were, Ororo went to Professor Xavier's office to see if he had discovered anything about this game, whether it was harmful or not, but when she walked into his office, Ororo saw that Xavier was apparently sleeping in his chair. .
Concerned, she approached him quickly, but before touching Xavier, Ororo saw on his computer screen a square character running back and forth with a smile on his face.
'Is he having fun walking around again...?' Ororo was shocked to see that Professor Xavier was apparently playing this game and having a great time.
'Well... if even Professor Xavier is having fun playing the game, I think I can allow the students to play too.' Ororo thought cautiously, but she was curious why this game was so much fun for these people.
'Maybe I should try too?' She asked herself confused.
