"We can't interfere with players' normal gaming behavior!"
"In the past, the player base was small. In order to test the performance of the game in various aspects, the explosion rate was higher and the props were easier to obtain. Isn't this normal? That game was not like this at the beginning? Why are you picky about Canaan?"
"Why are we talking about game qualifications again? To tell you the truth, the game process, game content, and game functions are all controlled by the central intelligence brain. There is not much interference offline. Except for game helmets, our company actually cannot do it.
Too much."
"Compensation? What compensation? Are you kidding? Don't think I don't know how valuable virtual currency and game props are now. Who should be compensated or not compensated, it all involves astronomical amounts of money."
"My advice to new players is to persist, persist, and persist again. As the level increases, leave the novice village and go to the vast game world. There will be more resources and ways to obtain. There are so many people concentrated in such a few small places.
Of course the place and resources are tight?”
"Okay, I'm in a hurry..."
Yu Qingdong was chased and intercepted by long guns and cannons, and he hurriedly got into the car and went straight to the company headquarters.
Outside the headquarters, sanitation workers were cleaning up the mess left by the protest. Several players who had not dispersed saw the convoy approaching and wanted to rush over in excitement, but were stopped outside by quick-eyed security guards.
Amid the roars of Yu Dazui, Yu Shushu, and Yu Treacherous Chen, he entered the company headquarters building with a dark face. The company employees he saw along the way were all talking about it, and all they ate were melons from the "Xinxin Village Dog Walking" incident.
, everyone ate with gusto.
"Mr. Yu"
"Mr. Yu"
"Inform the heads of departments and above that there will be a meeting in the conference room on the 10th floor in half an hour!"
"OK"
As soon as I entered the office, someone knocked on the door and came in.
"You are firing off random shots again. What do you mean by 'not being able to interfere much offline'? Isn't this just giving evidence?"
"Is that what I said wrong?" Yu Qingdong was full of resentment. Now he is "notorious". Whenever players are not satisfied in the game, they will use him as a target, scold him, curse him, and greet his parents and relatives, mother.
Yes, even Warwick Company was implicated by him, and his old colleagues were forced to distance themselves from him.
Who am I provoking?
"Be careful what you say in the future, your position is very sensitive..."
"Okay, okay!" Yu Qingdong loosened his tie irritably and leaned back on the boss's chair, "What new instructions do you have this time?"
"Contact him, reflect on the offline impact, and see what he says."
"He...such a trivial matter?"
"What a good excuse, isn't it? As friends, we should contact each other more and avoid trouble, so that the relationship can be maintained forever."
"...Okay, let me try"
Having said this, the beautiful secretary knocked on the door and came in and said, "Mr. Yu, Director Liu, look at the forum, something happened."
"What the hell happened again?"
Yu Qingdong now gets a headache when he hears something happened. He opened the official website forum and took a look, and it turned out to be true.
New players protested, and old players were naturally dissatisfied. In response, more old players went to Novice Village to 'walk their dogs'.
Video after video, old players are throwing money away with smiles, and groups of new players are scolding and fighting for it like hungry dogs. The fire is already burning, isn't this adding fuel to the fire?
Why are these people so disturbing?
"Don't worry, this might be a good thing," Director Liu comforted Mr. Yu, who had a big head.
In the next two days, this incident intensified. It became a scene to spend money and walk dogs in Novice Village. Many old players were following this trend. As soon as the new players saw the old players appear, they swarmed in and yelled at each other.
On the other hand, he was fighting for his integrity.
There are also many new players who are specially watching over it. I heard that some old players who were particularly generous couldn't get enough of the copper coins and began to scatter the silver coins. Many new players were watching specially, and many of them "escaped poverty and became rich" because of this.
The strange thing is that as more and more people do this, the resentment on the Internet has dissipated a lot. There are still people scolding me, but they are not as hateful and bitter as before, and I shed tears.
The vast majority of people who eat melon turned from sympathy and booing to envy and jealousy.
Damn it, why doesn’t anyone do this in real life? Why doesn’t anyone ‘humiliate’ me like this? If someone throws soft girl coins in bundles, I can call them grandpa or grandma.
pity?
I'm sorry, I'm a player, how much is a game qualification worth?
Starving?
Uh-huh, if you can't poop, it's because of the lack of gravity? I'm qualified to play this game, just let me drink urine every day.
The wind direction changed, and Yu Qingdong was a little unprepared. If he contacted Bei Gaoyang again, his excuse would be a bit far-fetched.
"...Chairman, there has been some minor turmoil offline recently, do you know?"
"Uh...I've made you feel wronged again, haha..."
The word 'haha' made all the bones in Yu Qingdong's body feel lighter. All the previous resentment disappeared and he was deeply moved.
Look, look, such a big 'chairman' cares about the grievances of his employees, unlike some people who just use him as a target and put him on the table to take the blame.
"It's because we didn't do our job well, and we're here to review it."
"No matter what your business is, it's normal for players to make noises. We have indeed made big adjustments this time."
"We understand that since the player base is so large, it is naturally impossible to do the same as the previous tests..." Yu Qingdong started a small test.
"Well, there is a reason for this, but the more important consideration is for the future... Forget it, if you don't talk about this, do you have other things to do?"
"Yes, yes, there are arrangements for visitor qualifications and online time. You see..."
"Let's wait a few more days, the server has not reached perfect load yet."
"Can you give us an approximate time so that we can make preliminary preparations?"
"Uh...it will be almost done in three days."
"So...what instructions do you have regarding the extraction of tourist identities?"
"I have no objection to your arrangement."
Yu Qingdong was so excited that his fingers trembled with excitement.
"I only hope that the sources of tourist identity will be wider, preferably from all walks of life, to enrich the game ecology!"
"I understand, I understand..."
"That's it?"
"You're busy, goodbye."
After ending the communication with the earth, Bei Gaoyang asked Xiao Ai how many people had reached the peak online number?
"Twenty-nine thousand"
Four days after the server was launched (in reality), this result can be said to have exceeded expectations. The theoretical perfect value is 40,000 people online at the same time, and the status of tourists is not included.
At this point, the Magic Network has gained some depth and breadth, forming an increasingly large and strict fortress and system. Within this system, there are hundreds of thousands of magic circuits being processed and processed at the same time. It is their
Working together and reacting with each other, the colorful game functions are now formed.
This layer of 'skin' covering reality is becoming more and more 'hairy'. At first glance, it really has some flavor of the Kingdom of God.
"Let that man in!"
In the space array maze on the first floor of the mage tower, Bei Gaoyang was sitting at the table. The white-haired fourth-level mage Elster carefully walked out of the portal. His figure was hunched, as humble as if he was preparing to meet the devil of the abyss.
.
An oil lamp exudes a dark and elegant light, stretching Bei Gaoyang and his shadow infinitely. There is no edge in the space maze, a little light, a darkness and depth like the depths of the universe, his figure and his shadow.
, like the only master, possessing mysterious and supreme power.
Elster just glanced at it, then buried his head deeply, and humbly performed a mage salute, "Salute to you!"
"What is your name and who is your mentor?"
"Well, how did you end up working for a human noble?"
"The Southwest Wizards? I've heard that they are a group of selfish and crazy guys. They were taught to annihilate them and they won't be sympathized with. It's not surprising if you come from there."
"I have no interest in the family you serve. The Alpha War has shown that this is a dying ship. They no longer have the ability to compete with me for this plane."
"You have served the human nobles for decades, what do you think?"
"You are right. The church has become extremely corrupt. The nobles only care about their own interests, piety, and faith? That is a joke. It has become a kind of political correctness, and the gods are still kept in the dark, haha!"
"What I saw was that the middle- and lower-class people were living in dire straits. Under the oppression of the church and the nobility, they had no food to eat, no clothing to protect them from the cold, and the things they gained through daily hardships were not enough for a family to meet the minimum standard of living.
Guarantee... There is despair everywhere, misery and confusion about why we are like this."
"This is a silent volcano. Once it erupts, it will destroy everything. The church and nobles have felt it, so they are even more fierce and crazy. They try their best to brainwash the people, saying that all sins are tests by gods.
This world is built on lies, and my mission is to expose this lie and wake up the working people from their brainwashed ignorance!"
"Very good, I accept your surrender, and now I give you a task to gather the remnants scattered in the Alpha plane and tell them my kindness. Remember, you only have this chance."
"Go for it!"
Bei Gaoyang is interested in the Griffin Knight.
After all, who doesn’t want their own air force? Although the Griffin Knights may not be of much use in real high-end military duels, they are definitely the decisive force that makes the final decision in most combat scenarios.
Imagine that there are such a group of bombers overhead that pour out their energy to the ground endlessly. What kind of enemy can hold on?
The reason for the Alpha Battlefield was that there was a magic network and sufficient system surplus, which happened to restrain this kind of air power that also focused on mid- to low-level fire strikes.
Besides, players also need griffins, and for this reason, they cannot let go of those fish that still exist in the Alpha plane.
"Why, is there anything else?"
Elster used the greatest self-control to make himself stooped. In front of this mysterious and powerful spell caster, his spirit, consciousness and soul were in a state of strong shock and trembling. As a spell caster,
The author's pride is also out of respect for Bei Gaoyang.
"I... have a humble request!"
"explain!"
"I want to take a closer look at your masterpiece, those undead souls, and the magic effects that are always around..."
"Oh, a magician's thirst for knowledge?" Bei Gaoyang smiled understandingly, and then waved his hand.
With permission, Elster's first stop was Dawn Town.
Seeing this well-organized birthplace of the Magic Network, I saw many old players. They were high-spirited, energetic, and racing against time. Everyone had a goal and a strong purpose. It was almost impossible to see them.
to anyone who has nothing to do, this
The nearly 70-year-old mage nodded. He was shocked by the growth rate of the undead, and marveled at their diligence and discipline. From them, he saw the quality and potential to become a truly powerful person. This is what happened in Mu Qi.
It is rare among the heavy human nations.
The second stop was Buck City. He was well-informed and could tell the origin of this city just by the smell in the air.
He stood at the entrance of the Baldwin family cemetery and sighed deeply. He smelled a familiar smell coming from inside. This kind of smell was often smelled in the church dungeon.
I don’t know how many [White Walkers] are wailing in the dungeons of the church all day long, waiting for them to be burned at the stake. The only value of their existence is as a prop to please the majority of believers. Whenever it is necessary to appease people’s hearts, the stakes in the square will be burned all night long.
The church and aristocrats blamed these [foreign ghosts] for all the suffering people suffered in life, claiming that it was precisely because of the existence of these unbelievers and heretics that there was so much suffering and misery in the world.
The young city lord Bob has grown up, standing behind him to monitor and remain silent. The old mage has nothing to say to this NPC player. He has seen too many young people like this who are burdened with blood feud and huge responsibilities.
The third stop is Punk City.
The old mage was shocked as soon as he set foot in this truly first city in the system.
What did I see?
The Creator-like miracle I saw!?
Being able to use necromancy to this extent is just because I am ignorant. How come I have never heard of it from the senior mage, and I have never seen it in Canaan?
This is simply turning decay into magic, creating a... city out of thin air?
If players can still accept it as a new undead race, then this city, which is completely under the control and support of the magic network, is beyond the scope of magic and is simply a divine domain!
How did he do it?
Is he some awakened ancient god?
Or is it some unknown legendary spell effect?
It is only because of understanding that I know how incredible this city is. This is something that magic cannot do. Even the 9-ring magic can only temporarily graft the shadow of the historical mark into reality, but that has a time limit.
It is illusory, unlike it, so real, so vivid...
The old mage was walking in the streets of Punk City in despair. He saw the undead system natives and players bustling around, as if he saw countless invisible "threads" connected to them. These "threads" extended to
Deep in the void, and then gathered together to form an all-encompassing, all-inclusive, all-defining and supportive... network!
The magic is on!
What kind of wisdom and strength is needed to complete such a miraculous masterpiece!?
Elster became more pious, and the rest of the journey was carried out with a pilgrim mentality.
The fourth stop is Novice Village 4, Chenxi Town.
"Come on, come on, I will throw it over there if it screams. This time there are gold coins!"
"Damn it, that's too much. You guys should be braver!!"
"Woof woof woof..."
"That grandson is shouting, fuck your mother, it's so embarrassing..."
"Woof woof woof..."
"Haha... That's a good call, kids, come on, here comes the money!"
A large area of yellow and silver coins spilled out, and a large group of people rushed towards the landing point. The old mage was surrounded by such "enthusiasm" as soon as he walked out. Before he could figure out what was going on, he was staggered around.
"Damn it, where are the gold coins? You can't afford it, right?"
"What kind of big-tailed wolf can you pretend to be if you don't have money?"
"What the hell, are you spending this little money on a beggar?"
"Aren't we just beggars?"
"Don't you understand this? It is said that meat and wine go through the intestines and stay in the heart of Buddha. A man can bend and stretch... Now they are playing with us, in the future we will pay back ten times. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years!"
"Tsk, who doesn't know how to talk?"
"Are there any more, are there any more people throwing money? I screamed like, woof woof, woof woof..."
