After returning, Elster summoned the leaders of the fish that slipped through the net and said, "...that is a strange creature that cannot be simply defined as undead. They are both orderly and chaotic, brave and cowardly, and aggressive.
They are also docile and harmless, both... In short, they are a kind of creature full of contradictions, which is difficult for people to understand. But one thing can be confirmed, that is, Lord Rumsfeld who created them is a great and genius
Yes, he is the archmage who is most likely to advance to the legendary level. He even created a strange city out of thin air. In this city, everyone has an invisible thread. Everyone is like a puppet on a string, but
Everyone is so real... Words cannot describe the greatness of this city. It is like a creator's handiwork. If I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes, I would never have believed that someone could create it."
"Such a great, powerful, wise, and talented Archmage is something we cannot resist, and is also the root cause of the Duke's defeat. Sadly, it is only now that I understand what kind of enemy we have faced."
"Surrender, take refuge, don't waste your precious lives on this kind of hostility with no hope of victory. This is our only choice now. As for reopening the portal... under the ubiquitous 'net', it is
There is no chance. Besides, we have lost everything and are hiding like mice every day."
"Eileen, think about your family, think about your children, think about your beautiful wife, how many people are coveting what you have, are you willing to give it all to others?"
"This is not betrayal, this is loyalty to the Duke. Only when you are alive can you have hope and..."
"To tell you the truth, the Duke's fight for the demiplane is all-or-nothing. The Duke's family has been defeated in the high-level power struggle. The newly appointed Crown Prince will be the Duke's enemy. What follows is a series of
The liquidation is just like the countless ups and downs that have occurred in history. How many families that are more prominent and have more historical background than the Duke are wiped out in the long river of history?"
"The fight for this demiplane is already a desperate attempt to survive. If successful, the Duke's family can guard this demiplane and wait for changes in the high-level political power map. Jin can dedicate it to the winner.
I prayed for a chance to convert, but now it's all gone. The strength accumulated by the family for hundreds of years has been lost here. I can't imagine what kind of pressure the mediocre heir to the Duke is under."
"Maybe he has been beaten into a heresy, maybe your family is sliding into the bottomless abyss!"
"Time is running out, please come up with a decision as soon as possible."
It seems that the job of persuading people to surrender is not difficult to do. Maybe everyone has this plan in mind. Now that the first person to sell himself out has appeared, most people have the opportunity to shirk their responsibilities and reduce their guilt, so they take advantage of slope.
Get off the donkey and agree to it.
But there are also those who are stubborn and are seriously brainwashed by the dogma of noble knights and religious beliefs. They refuse to betray with righteous words and loudly denounce their comrades who are ready to sell themselves and join them.
There is nothing you can do about this kind of person.
Elster could only unite his supporters and kill them.
Among them was the leader of the Knights of the Griffin Army, whom Bei Gaoyang valued most.
A fire also caused further attrition of the Griffin Knights. The number of remaining Griffin Knights dropped sharply to less than 300. When Elster took these remnants of less than a thousand people and emerged from the hiding hole,
At that time, I felt uneasy in my heart, wondering how the mysterious, powerful, and genius great magician would deal with these people.
As soon as such a large-scale ‘monster army’ appeared, it naturally attracted the attention of players.
The veteran players who heard the news rushed over desperately. Within an hour, an endless "army of the undead" gathered around them.
Their eyes reminded Elster of the wolves in the wilderness, and a chill that froze the blood came over his body and mind. The other leaders were even more unbearable. They had fought against these 'undead armies' a long time ago and knew their nature and abilities.
, there is no doubt that when they think they are confident enough, they will swarm up like ghouls, scrambling to be the first, risking their own lives to come up and eat their own corpses.
The five-minute stalemate lasted as long as five years, until the black-faced Yaris came with the NPC city guards of Alpha City. A system announcement appeared, reminding the players that they were experiencing the plot of 'the remnants of the hostile camp surrender to Alpha City'
'
"Oh, you're wasting my feelings, let's go, let's go!"
"Ah, no big gift package?"
"Bai is so damn happy, Gan!"
"I knew the system couldn't be so generous. Now I'm stingy and won't give you anything. The 18th-level elite monster won't even give me a whiteboard. Do you believe it?"
"What should I do in the future? The explosion rate is too low!"
"..."
One moment they were glaring at Duanduan, as if they were going to eat them alive, and the next moment they dispersed in a rush, not even interested in looking here again. The leaders suddenly understood what Elster was saying.
What does it mean to be strange and contradictory?
Yaris accepted their surrender. Although he liked these minions of the church and nobles, this was Bei Gaoyang's decision.
The surrender ceremony was held in the square of Alpha City. Afterwards, how to place these people was a problem.
The deputy leader of the mercenary group (the leader has been pinched to death by the Grand Duke) is a professional level 2 ranger with some elf blood. It is said that he is the illegitimate son of a certain great noble. His 'distribution trend' was the first to come out.
A soul contract, the deputy leader who was very concerned about appearance signed his name tremblingly, and immediately felt an extremely cold thing invade his body, and then penetrated into his brain.
The deputy leader's vision was greatly distorted, everything seemed strange and dreamy, a large number of colors reorganized in his eyes, and all objects came to life, floating and twisting like ghosts.
He wailed in fear and prayed until a cold mechanical voice said: "Functional NPC No. 1047, you have a new mission, please check the mission details."
The deputy leader then opened his tearful eyes and found that the world he saw was different. A box appeared in the center of his field of vision, with a strange flashing symbol (exclamation mark) in the middle.
When he learned to operate the functional NPC interface, it was already a day later.
Functional NPC 1047 Task 1: Prepare to establish a mercenary guild within the Magic Network, and find ways to gain recognition and contact with external mercenary organizations. Task 2: Update and synchronize external mercenary tasks. Within the coverage of the Magic Network, there are
Conditions are selectively handed over to players to complete. Task 3: Cultivate and recruit players to become mercenaries. Within the scope covered by the magic network, enrich and complete the mercenary system, adventure system and related credit and strength upgrade systems.
The leader of the barbarians is functional NPC No. 1099. The mission is: first, to establish a barbarian tribe camp in the abandoned wasteland, and to find ways to recruit more barbarians, so that it can be used as a neutral camp city in the future. Second, to establish a barbarian tribe in the barbarian camp.
Professional training camp to receive and train all players who take up the barbarian profession, improve their various qualities and abilities, and lead them to understand the history and form of barbarians.
Various reasons for its success, instilling the concept that "the church is wrong, bloody, and reactionary". Third, establish business and travel relations with Buck City and Punk City, and actively hunt, livestock and other various productions. Fourth, gradually connect the system
Tasks include exclusive and professional tasks for the barbarian camp, daily tasks, and weekly tasks. Players are used to build and promote production, striving to build the city as soon as possible and attract more barbarians to settle here.
Barbarians are a race in the wasteland, but they are indeed a profession in the system.
There is a reason for this.
The origin of barbarians is very complex. It is a cultural identity rather than a racial identity. Humans can become barbarians, as can dwarves, and there are even elves, ogres, etc.
The barbarians have a unique sacrificial system, worshiping ancestors and great spirits, and their unique totem warriors, totem warriors, totem wizards, totem shamans, etc., which have been borrowed from many subhuman intelligent races, such as kobolds, jackals, etc.
Therefore, barbarians are more like a profession than a race based on physical characteristics.
The barbarian aborigines in the wasteland have various faces, but the most common ones are orcs. Therefore, in the eyes of humans and other civilized worlds, they have become synonymous with barbarians, uncivilized, degenerate and primitive, and they have no interest in understanding their internal affairs.
There are many sources of origin, and they are all called barbarians instead of their original racial identity.
These were fully transplanted into the system by Bei Gaoyang, with the intention of further bringing them closer to reality to reduce the burden on the system and further improve the fit between the Magic Network and the grassroots rules.
There are mercenaries, there are barbarians, and of course there are gryphon knights.
The leader of the Griffin Knights has been killed in the internal strife. A large number of die-hards who refused to surrender are either dead or still working as rats in the Alpha plane. These 'submissive people' no longer have the spirit of the past and just want to survive.
The leader who withdrew was obedient, signed a soul contract, and after being incorporated into the Magic Network to become an NPC, he returned to the Griffin Knights with a system mission and preached it in public.
Task 1 is to establish a complete set of infrastructure for the raising and training of griffons. The required costs and materials are partially solved by the system. You can also issue tasks to players to collect them.
Task 2: Establish the favorability, merit and reputation system of the Griffin Knights, and accept all players whose merit and reputation meet the requirements to join the Knights and become reserves.
Task 3: Launch the system's gryphon mounts, select new owners for all the gryphons obtained from the Alpha battlefield, and train player knights to become new gryphon knights.
Task 4: Gradually integrate the gift system, launch exclusive tasks for the Griffin Knights, military camp tasks, meritorious tasks, daily and weekly tasks, use players to build and promote production, and under the guidance of the system, strive to build the city as soon as possible and continue the lion
The bloodline of the Gryphon Knights strengthens the team of the Gryphon Knights.
…
Even Elster had his own mission after signing the soul contract and being included in the magic network. These remnants who sold themselves to join the army were really used to the extreme by waste, and no one could escape.
A total of 897 functional NPCs with complex origins and different occupational systems have made their debut, and camps with various organizations, occupations and purposes have been established, further enriching the game's ecology without consuming much system resources. This business is a success.
Very satisfied with the work.
As for those 'rats' who are still in the Alpha plane, just treat them as a big gift package and leave it to the players as a surprise. Once they have completely sorted out the details of the Alpha War, he will leave all the subsequent troubles to Xiao Ai.
Don't care about it anymore.
Counting Centaur Ranch, there are more and more "grafted" things in the game, such as mercenary guilds, mercenary missions and adventurer systems, barbarian camps, barbarian inheritance, barbarian history, and barbarian history.
Totems, etc., as well as the emergence of griffins, wild mages, knights, etc. In the future, the Magic Network will not only have its own ecology and various industries, but also will
With the introduction of outside ecology and industry, the Magic Network should be open, not closed, and allow harmonious and positive communication between Canaan and the Earth in the game. Only when two different ideas and civilizations collide here can a unique world be formed.
The cultural heritage of Canaan makes it not just a game, but a complete ecology, a lively, real and interesting life.
Second life.
Everything Bei Gaoyang does is aimed at this goal.
But Second Life is not a goal, but a means, and the goal still falls on the faith value.
And the faith value is for the detachment and upgrade of the magic network. In the end, it is still for himself!
Bei Gaoyang is full of ambition, ambition, and entrepreneurial passion. He works every minute and has too many things to pay attention to. Focusing on the big and letting go of the small has become an inevitable choice.
No, there is finally movement in the abyss, which has been without news for a long time.
"You mean you are achieving total victory?"
At the gate of the abyss of the mage tower, the constant magic circle imprisoned a succubus coming from afar.
This gorgeous beauty was wearing a tight leather jacket, holding a whip burning with black flames, and winking at Bei Gaoyang, "Yes, your client sent me to inform you."
This is really not good news.
It is not surprising that the party representing order won the final victory. It was unexpected that the bloody battle came to an end so quickly.
After the bloody battle, will he have to settle accounts with his future wife... Ah, no, the devil will not expose his true intentions so easily. The so-called comprehensive victory may be an exaggeration, and he uses this to threaten himself.
"so what?"
"Mr. Barn still needs to continue to perform the previous contract, but the amount and conditions of the contract need to be discussed again."
Hehe, sure enough.
Bei Gaoyang breathed a sigh of relief. The last time he blackmailed the other party, he had no choice but to do it. It was not the way of a businessman. This time, let's just go down the road.
"Then reduce it by 20%."
"Minimum 50%"
"make a deal!"
She completed the task easily, and the succubus was very surprised. She giggled, thinking that her charm had worked, so she started to show off her sex appeal to Bei Gaoyang.
"Is there anything else?"
"I heard you took down Alpha Farm?"
"Um?"
"Do you still remember the two-year appointment?"
"Of course I remember, but isn't the bloody battle about to end?"
"...Who would think that too few people die?"
"It's only been less than a year, let's talk about it later...how many units should we order this time?"
After the succubus left, Bei Gaoyang said to Xiao Ai, "This is not a complete victory. This is clearly trying to make a fool of oneself. It seems that the abyss has made its choice. As expected, it has gone completely crazy.
, chaos and destruction.”
"Do you really want to participate in a bloody battle?"
"Haha, I hope Barn and the others can persist until then... Who can say for sure what will happen in the future..."
