In the meeting hall, Pan Shi saw Wu Qi walking up to him happily, and gave him a hug: "Haha, long time no see~". Wu Qi hurriedly dodged, and his movement was so fast that Pan Shi almost staggered, sweating and sweating.
The blood is not white. He slapped all over his body with his hands and said with a disgusted expression: "It's like three autumns ago. Damn it, I don't know who drove me out to wander. Big gentlemen, hug me."
I came here and there to hug her, and I had goosebumps all over the floor."
"Haha, let's get to the point quickly! Boss's time is precious and must be reserved to support village No. 12389 at any time." Wang Tian smiled as he watched the two people messing around and reminded him by the way.
"Ahem, let me briefly talk about a few points." Pan Shi cleared his throat and pointed to the chair to sit down and talk: "First of all, the organization Misty Blade Shadow was registered in Pangu City. It is an assassination organization. It was established about half a month ago.
At the time, the leader was unknown, the specific number of people was unknown, and the industry was unknown. According to the investigation from the victim, it was mainly based on the commission of assassinations from other players to make money, and there was no grudge against the target of the assassination."
Wu Qi and Wang Tian nodded. They basically learned the same thing from the captured assassin. It would be strange if Pan Shi could find more detailed information.
"This assassination may have been carried out by someone who disliked our Zhonghua Town and entrusted them to do it. It is inevitable for a big tree to attract wind, but if they mess with us, they will definitely not be able to live with it!" Pan Shi's tone suddenly turned cold.
"Oh, is there any way to deal with it?" Wu Qi seemed to have already made arrangements after hearing this.
Wang Tian looked at Pan Shi with his chin in his hand, thoughtfully. Could he really want to take such measures?
Pan Shi glanced at Wang Tian and nodded: "I discussed it with Lao Er some time ago and consulted many parties. It is not that there is no defense method, but the cost is too high. But now it seems that we have to do this.
Well, if this happens too many times, the negative impact will be great. And the public beta is about to end, and there will be no stable environment by then. How can we introduce funds and intelligence? Haha, of course, it goes without saying that funds, intelligence refers to proficiency in various fields.
A player with production skills. I’ll explain it to you later.”
"One thing I don't understand is that since someone has disrupted our deployment time and time again. If he really has a grudge, why not just kill us a few times and then be done with it?" Wang Tian interjected, with some confusion on his face. This person doesn't know how.
Such an idiot.
"Exactly, this is what I am most worried about. You know, if your level is slightly higher now, we will be vulnerable. A few of us are really going to be killed, and no one will take care of the town affairs. I'm afraid we will lose all our efforts.
Burned to the ground. I don’t know what that person thought about it, but no matter what, I think the next wave of attacks will definitely be more vicious, so we must prepare for a rainy day." Pan Shi obviously thought carefully and analyzed the serious relationship clearly: "We
Not only are you playing games, but you are also making money from the games. To make money, you must play well.”
Wu nodded, of course he had to play well, and he naturally understood what Pan Shi meant. To play well here requires not only strong force, but also financial investment, and most importantly, brains.
"I checked and found that you can buy a barrier from the palace to cover the entire town. However, there are three, six or nine levels of barrier. The worst Qingfeng barrier costs 500,000 gold coins and has a monthly maintenance fee of 10,000 gold coins. Its main function is to monitor access.
The town and the murderous aura value, law-abiding degree and other conditions of ordinary players in the town, while defending against general invasions from the air, have no role in restricting the player's ability. As for better ones, they are currently unavailable, so let's not talk about them." Pan Shi said.
I wanted to spit out the money again, but my heart ached.
"It stands to reason that there is no need to set up barriers when we develop to the town level, but we don't know what happened to us, so we have to set them up early. However, I have also analyzed it carefully. According to the current financial situation, profit progress and expectations
In terms of future expectations, I think it is still cost-effective, and when the game develops to a certain extent, barriers are also indispensable." After the attack, Pan Shi has been thinking about how to improve city defense and manage public security, and he has gained something.
Wang Tian looked at Wu Qi a little confused, and added an explanation on Pan Shi's behalf: "Haha, I didn't know there was such a thing as a barrier. If we hadn't been forced to do this, we wouldn't have known. After all, apart from us, there is no one else
In the second territory, we have to explore everything ourselves. As for the three major cities, I think there should be barriers, but they may be the worst kind, because there are no restrictions on player abilities in Pangu City, but if the murderous intent is too high
Players who enter will soon be rounded up by agents, which is similar to the monitoring effect of Qingfeng Barrier."
"Well, you have ulterior motives." Wu Qi sighed. The idea was really clever. This is another way for game companies to make money. Just imagine, after the game is opened, more and more players will own territories, and conflicts will become more and more intense.
The establishment of safe zones in the city has been canceled and replaced with "enchantments" to ensure the safety of the city. As a commodity, it is difficult not to make a fortune. Although it is not clear whether players will be able to create "enchantments" by themselves in the future, but at least
At the beginning, this resource was in the hands of the game company, and anyone who needed it had to purchase it from the palace—that is, the game company.
"I really admire the designer of this game!" Pan Shi also agreed with the same feeling.
"Because the amount is huge, all the brothers must agree. No problem with the fourth brother... Well, since you have no problem, let's do it." Pan Shi looked at Wu Qi and waved his hand heartbrokenly to express his agreement, and then said
: "The next step is how to fight back."
"Although I don't know who is causing trouble in the dark, the Mist Blade Shadow must be eliminated. I have several plans for you to refer to." Pan Shi tried to slow down his speech: "The first is to issue a arrest warrant and offer a reward for eradication.
The second is to request the three major cities to cooperate in the pursuit as a government official, which of course will cost a lot of money; the third is to hold the troops aside for the time being, and after the investigation is clear, invite experts to help and dispatch troops to eliminate them in one fell swoop."
"What about the second plan you mentioned?" Wu Qi didn't have time to accept and absorb so much fresh information from Pan Shi, so he had to ask other cities to cooperate in the pursuit?
"Haha, it's no wonder you don't know. The hunt for gangs issued by players' territories is different from that of individual players, because not all players in the gang have bad deeds. Without bad deeds, they are naturally allowed to operate in other territories. If you want to put this gang's
All gang members must be completely eradicated, and we must request the assistance of other territories, currently mainly the three major cities, to prohibit all members of the organization from activities in the territory, or even participate in the hunt. This all requires money." Pan Shi said with a slight smile.
"I see, how much will it cost?" Wu nodded. This second option seems to be more effective, but I don't know if it is expensive.
"It's not expensive, but it's not cheap either. The forbidden activity is 1,000 gold coins, and the participation in the hunt is 5,000 gold coins. The total is 1 million to 5 million gold coins. And after the gang member dies once, the money has to be calculated again.
, and the deadline is half a year of game time, and the efficiency is unknown." Pan Shi crossed his legs at this time and looked at Wu Qi with a half-smile.
Wu Qi couldn't help but be speechless. Game companies are so good at making money that they have laid so many foreshadowings to make money. You must know that 1 gold coin is 10 yuan in reality. He couldn't help but touch the cold sweat on his head and said: "What do you mean?
"
"Actually, although the second method is expensive, it is the most trouble-free. Although I estimate that the number of Mist Blade Shadows will not exceed 500, even if we calculate it on a one-to-one basis, it is not something we can afford." Pan Shi gave up.
Wu Qi had the idea of finding a solution once and for all.
"In this case, I think we should adopt the first option, supplemented by the third option!" Wu Qi sighed and said helplessly, but he also understood the game company's painstaking efforts. If the price for this kind of thing is not high, I'm afraid it won't be possible.
There is no balance at all. If any territory asks other territories to help ban the activities of a certain gang, or even officially pursues them, then who will play this game? On the other hand, with such a setting, although there is a suspicion that everything is based on money
, but it is also more humane.
"I think the two things that are troubling us the most at the moment can basically be solved by doing this. Everything is up to you. The second brother has also arranged the occupation of village No. 12389 in detail, so I have nothing to do. It only takes 30 hours.
I've been gone for 6 hours, I have to save some time. Get off first, and call me up if you need anything. It's all in vain!" Wu Qi estimated the time and luckily checked the condition of his body. The mana and internal energy consumed in the process of rounding up the assassin just now were also
After basically recovering, he didn't even say hello. He just said hello and then turned into white light and disappeared in front of the two of them.
"This guy~" Pan Shi shook his head and turned to Wang Tiandao: "How is the occupation going?"
"As long as there are no special circumstances, there is basically no problem. I just received a report that the medicine has been delivered. I have dispatched two more teams to supplement the fourth team. The front line reported that there were four more waves of monster attacks, but the numbers were relatively small.
No losses were caused." Wang Tian is not worried about this problem. With strong troops and horses, occupation is only a matter of time. Of course, the premise is that there is no external interference like the foggy blade shadow.
"Haha, I heard that the Little Sword Legion suffered a lot of losses."
"Our Chinatown army is not comparable to this kind of wandering army. They need no men, no money, no supplies, and not many experts. It's strange that they have no losses in a war of attrition against endless monsters.
"Wang Tian sneered.
"Okay, I won't chat with you. Anyway, we have a clear division of labor. The time limit for going online is coming soon. You should hurry up and deploy. I also have to work on the enchantment and pursuit." Pan Shi waved his hand, stood up and walked quickly.
Walk towards the deputy mayor's office.
Wang Tian shrugged helplessly and went about their business.
× × × × × × × × ×
The sky was overcast, with thick clouds floating in the sky, blocking the blazing sunshine. The streets in the afternoon were a little cool. Wu Qi and Chen Xi were walking side by side on the streets filled with ginkgo trees. Wu Qi put his hands in his trouser pockets, and his hair was covered with a quilt.
After the styling water was applied, the two people moved forward slowly.
It turned out that Wu Qi remembered the matter of co-opening a game information store with Chen Xi, and he had discussed it with Bai Xiaosheng. Coupled with the urge to meet the beautiful woman, he temporarily forgot that he still had the task of supporting the war at any time, and asked Chen Xi to come out to meet him. Unexpectedly,
I managed to find Chenxi successfully, and when I saw Chenxi smiling and nodding in agreement in the virtual video of "Xumijie", I felt a burst of joy in my originally calm heart. After a while of clearing up my face, I went to the place I had arranged for.
"Hey, you're so early!" Chen Xi, who was wearing light makeup, looked even more delicate and refined. Her cool summer outfit revealed her fair arms and legs, and she appeared in front of Wu Qi's eyes. Wu Qi felt his eyes light up, and his heart beat wildly.
Down.
"Haha, it's a rare opportunity to go shopping with a beautiful woman." Wu Qi didn't know what to say at the moment. He was just rambling, but this sentence is true. He has lived in seclusion for so many years. Apart from occasionally getting together with his brothers, he has not had contact with the opposite sex.
The chances are indeed very small.
In the morning light, he lowered his head and smiled, a breeze blew by, and a strand of green silk with a delicate fragrance gently crossed Wu Qi's face, giving him a numb and itchy feeling. Wu Qi turned his head and saw the pink neck, which was really a good feeling. Anyway,
Since you can't say it, then just don't say it to avoid bad things.
A man and a woman were walking on the street. The man pretended to be serious, but the woman was timid and shy. At first glance, she seemed to be the kind of person who was interesting but had little progress. The leaves rustled in the wind, and several
Workers are busy laying new turf for the roadside gardens in early summer. The transplanted flower bushes are dotted with drops of water after watering, making them look gorgeous.
“The weather is nice!”
"Well, it's rare that it cools down a bit in the afternoon."
…
Half an hour passed by exchanging meaningless conversations. Wu Qi walked carefully on the outside of the road, because there were more bicycles and cars. He bought two bottles of drinks at a roadside convenience store and handed one over.
"thirsty!"
"Well, thank you!"
…
"Big brother, buy a rose for the beautiful big sister." A little girl appeared in front of the two of them holding a large bundle of roses. Her clothes were clean but there were obviously a few small patches and a few stains on her face.
His flawless big eyes looked at Wu Qi expectantly.
Wu Qi felt sad, who would let such a young child sell flowers? I heard that this phenomenon was very common at the beginning of the century, but now it is very rare. Wu Qi bent down and picked out the largest and most beautiful rose.
, stuffed a piece of money into the child's hand, patted her head and said: "Be good, go home early." "Thank you, big brother~" The little girl bowed to Wu Qi, and ran away happily.
.
"..."
Wu Qi looked at the rose in his hand and sighed. Suddenly, his eyes flashed, and his beautiful pink hand quietly reached out and gently picked up the rose.
Chen Xi put the rose under her playful nose, took a deep breath, and whispered, "What a fragrant flower!" A blush quietly flashed across her face, and Wu Qi couldn't help but be stunned.
"What are you looking at? I've never seen a beautiful woman before!" Chen Xi said coquettishly.
"No, no~" Wu Qi stammered. She took the flowers and roses.
"Hmph, I'm tired. I want to swing on the swing." Chen Xi pointed to the small park road on the street.
…
Wu Qi sat on this side, and Chen Xi sat on the other side. Holly quietly separated the small garden from the noisy sounds of carriages and horses, and several bushes of flowers bloomed quietly. There were only two people here, which seemed noisy and yet quiet.
While swaying, Wu Qi seemed to be in a dream, and he opened his mind and talked about his childhood, middle school, college, bits and pieces in the game, and the sentimental love. Chen Xi held the swing with both hands.
The iron chain swayed slowly back and forth, and he lowered his head and listened quietly to Wu Qi's story.
The slight wind blew the leaves and made a rustling sound. It was probably celebrating something.
…
Time slips away quietly, and the low clouds in the sky have dispersed. Even if the summer night comes slowly, the stars finally open their eyes, twinkling in the dark blue sky, and curiously watching the world.
"I'll take you back!"
"Um……"
…
The pretty figure in the distance waved goodbye in the night, then turned around.
Wu Qi felt lost, turned around and walked slowly, but heat surged in his chest.
One step, two steps, three steps...
Wu Qi stopped and looked back to see the figure gradually fading in the night...
Wu Qi couldn't help but turn around and quickly chased after him...
