King from scratch

Everything that happened in the Canyon of the Undead is just a trifle that the two extremely busy worlds have no time to take care of.

He Xingwen, who is going all out to prepare for the big trouble, has no time to think about what happened to the players who were randomly sent out to contact the Undead Canyon, while the menacing Zerg from the South China Sea gathered most of the eyes of the other world.

Even the other forces that were dissatisfied with the king's warning before, under the approach of the Zerg with great fanfare, quickly rectified their attitudes and stayed behind closed doors to show their sincerity-this was not out of selfishness, but it was like this in the kingdom's previous warnings required.

"We are asked to stay behind closed doors to avoid adding troops to the Zerg, so His Majesty the King intends to wipe out the Zerg by himself?"

"Although he successively conquered the three areas of Mountain Top, Arcane Academy, and Everlasting Forest, most of these three areas are inaccessible, and the top of the mountain is even more empty. Although the kingdom's territory is now astonishingly vast, But the number may not have increased much.”

"The exact number of the Zerg race is immeasurable, but its characteristics have been widely spread. It can parasitize just by contact, and control the host without anyone noticing. Ai Zhijin doesn't even know how many hosts the Zerg race is parasitic in the South China Sea. The menacing Zerg army is said to occupy half of the South China Sea, almost endless..."

"The insect swarm is more ferocious than the last one. Is this kingdom really planning to wipe out the insect race on its own?"

"I'm even more curious. Why did he do this? The curse of God's Fall is well known. Although his kingdom is adjacent to the South China Sea, at least he has the blessing of the Father God, and he doesn't need to worry about the Zerg. Why should he take the initiative to deal with the Zerg?"

"Even if this king has already set his ambition to conquer the mainland, hasn't he yet conquered the mainland?"

There was a lot of discussion on the mainland, and they couldn't understand the behavior of the kingdom, and what was even more incomprehensible was that since the kingdom didn't ask other forces to join the battlefield, how could he plan to fight the Zerg that had engulfed most of the South China Sea by himself?

Zerg parasitism is not just a threat to other races.

The people of the kingdom, except the players, face the same threat.

"That is to say, except for the players, other people can't fight the Zerg head-on," Nubida explained to Tuol Jin: "This is caused by the characteristics of the Zerg. It's already lost, because what the Zerg want is to make contact with the host."

Tull King rolled his eyes, it's not like he didn't know about this, and he didn't ask Nubida such a question, obviously Nubida was there alone talking non-stop.

As if he didn't see Tuoer Jin's expression, Nubida continued to explain: "First of all, killing the Zerg doesn't mean killing the host parasitized by the Zerg. , Killing the host is meaningless."

"Secondly, just like only players are immune to Zerg parasitism, the only weapon that can effectively kill Zerg at present is the insecticide spray that players can use. Just those players."

Tuol Jin rolled his eyes again and said, "Aren't you talking nonsense?"

There were indeed a lot of people at the scene, and it was rare to gather all the races in the kingdom who were eligible to be present. Even Adisseo escaped from the constant busyness and brought Dorona to the meeting room.

Tuo Er Jin still yelled from the side: "I didn't ask you, who did you explain to?"

He Xingwen put down the report in his hand, and took over the conversation: "Follow me."

Everyone cast their eyes on the king together.

Tuo Er Jin nodded suddenly: "Oh, then I understand, Nubida, are you asking the king?"

Nubida nodded sincerely from the side: "After all, the distance between the Zerg and the mainland is getting closer, and I don't want to understand how the king can win with these players."

Tuol Jin rolled his eyes again: "It's not your style to work hard." He turned his head to look at the king: "Your king, you and Nubida acted like this, what exactly are you trying to say?"

He Xingwen really didn't ask Nubida to play the double reed, but the devil is too talented to be a courtier, and he immediately understands the slightest trouble, and can pave the way for the leader in the blink of an eye.

If it wasn't for the fact that the devil's nature is too bad, and there are almost no existences that can have an absolutely powerful position in front of them, then the devil's reputation on the mainland would not be so bad.

He Xingwen put down the report and looked at the time: "I really came to talk to you about the players who will fight against the Zerg next."

No one answered at the scene, He Xingwen continued: "Nubida is right, the number of players at the moment is indeed a bit small compared with the Zerg."

Tull Jin lowered his voice and said: "It's not just a small number? With just a few players, it can fill up the sea area of ​​​​the kingdom. The coastline of the South China Sea directly borders half of the continent. With the number of players, it is impossible to get enough The number of people who have erected a complete line of defense covering the entire coastline of the South China Sea."

He Xingwen nodded: "So I think the number of players should be a little more." He glanced at the others: "At least it can block the insect swarm."

Duo mentioned the words, with a serious expression: "That's a lot."

Not only are there a lot, but the etheric structure that has been watching from the sidelines has already come up with a more accurate astronomical figure. As far as this figure is concerned, it is impossible for everyone in the kingdom to gather such a large number, let alone only players.

He Xingwen nodded: "That's why I called everyone here."

The scene was quiet for another two seconds, and Anuta, who had already returned to the kingdom, responded uncertainly: "Does the king need help?" He glanced at everyone present, and took the lead: "Ai Zhijin can provide supplies..."

Tuo Er Jin mumbled to himself in a low voice: "Here to make war fortune again."

Anuta was serious: "The kingdom is for the safety of the whole continent, how could Ai Zhijin collect money?"

Tuo Er Jin immediately cheered up when he heard the words: "Really?"

Anuta just added slowly: "There are limits to the types and quantities of supplies..."

Tuo Er Jin drooped again: "Pull it down, I know that you Ai Zhijin want money."

Anuta, who was desperate for money, stared at the Dragon Clan who wished to use gold to build the Dragon Island into pure gold, and felt that the other party had no self-knowledge—is there any race on the mainland that is more desperate for money than the Dragon Clan?

Nubida commented objectively on the side: "When you meet your opponent, it's the same." He said triumphantly: "However, demons are different from them. We are not interested in money."

Nubida turned to look at the king, and brought back the topic of running away: "The main reason is that I can't help, so you are looking for the wrong person, king." Da Nai stretched out his hand and said, "It's not wrong to find them."

The virtue of the devil has never changed, and even Anudha didn't bother to express any reflections on the devil's words.

The king nodded again: "But I believe that all of you will be able to help in the future..." He Xingwen didn't give anyone a chance to speak, and said directly: "What do you think of the previous "Player Operating Rules"?"

Everyone who had long forgotten what the "Player Operating Rules" was lost in memory, but Nubida narrowed his eyes, and the ominous premonition became stronger, and he couldn't help but quietly took two steps back toward the door.

Tull King first thought of what the "Player Operation Rules" was: "The book used to explain the strange behavior of players and how to deal with players?"

He Xingwen nodded again.

Tuo Er Jin said honestly: "It's not made of gold, I don't know where to throw it."

He Xingwen said with a good temper: "It's okay to lose it. The previous book was produced in a hurry, and there were actually many omissions..." He Xingwen glanced at Zhe: "So I printed a new batch of editions."

Zhe took out a stack of thick books and distributed them to everyone present one by one.

Nubida stared at the title of "Advanced Edition of Player Operation Rules" for two seconds, and opened the catalog. Unlike the long stack of catalogs last time, there were only a few catalogs this time.

The danger of the player is explained in detail.

Analyze player behavior patterns.

Notes on contact with players.

Although there are only a few catalogs, the thickness of the book is much thicker. Nubida flipped through it casually and came to the conclusion: this book is definitely not the same thing as the last time.

From the choice of words and sentences to the content, it progresses layer by layer. Compared with the last book, the professionalism is simply a leap, and it is definitely not something that can be thought of with a slap in the head.

But like Nubida, there are not many people who read the content carefully. When they get the book, they only read the title at most, so this book did not attract any attention.

"Look at it carefully for the last time, and sum up a few rules, so that other people in your respective clans can also understand the situation." He Xingwen explained the reason without haste: "About a few days later, a group of new players will appear..."

Nubida remembered the conversation the king had with him last time, and asked reflexively, "How many new players?"

He Xingwen paused for a second: "About hundreds of millions..." Considering that the global public beta has just started and the number of people will not reach the peak, He Xingwen gave a conservative number.

But others may not think so.

"Hundreds of millions?" Anuta, who is most sensitive to numbers, repeated the number.

He Xingwen felt a little guilty: "At most one billion..."

"One billion?" Anuta stared at the young king for two seconds, suspecting that the other party had no idea how many people this number represented: "King, do you know how many intelligent creatures there are in the mainland?"

He Xingwen shook his head.

"There are only one billion intelligent creatures in the mainland!" Anuta said resoundingly.

It is very reasonable for Ai Zhijin to give this data, because among all the people present, only Ai Zhijin understands the internal situation of various forces in the mainland.

He Xingwen was not surprised by this number.

After all, this world is fundamentally different from the earth, with backward productivity, unsettled war shadows, and low reproductive ability of some races - such as dragons, treants, etc. For example, some races have no reproductive ability at all, such as Say devil.

Of course, the number of Ai Zhijin is not an accurate number.

After all, first, Ai Zhijin did not conduct a census, and most forces obviously did not have the concept of a census. They only had a vague number of how many intelligent creatures there were in their sphere of influence, let alone an accurate one. Quantity up.

And the second is that Aizhijin also has forces that cannot be touched, such as the canyon of the undead, the kingdom of elves, and the floating abyss. No one knows how many intelligent creatures are in these extremely xenophobic forces.

And the last point is Ai Zhijin's rough population statistics, which also excludes the South China Sea, which has the largest number of creatures in other worlds, and the group of new civilizations that have never been seen by everyone in the outermost periphery.

But no matter how you calculate it, the figure of one billion is indeed too exaggerated-especially for a country.

Another point they don't know is that this number, which may be the upper limit of the continent, is far from the upper limit of players.

He Xingwen looked at the demon who had already walked to the door: "Nubida?"

Nubida paused, turned to look at the king, and said sincerely, "I suddenly remembered that I still have something to deal with urgently..."

"Next, I'll ask you to play around a bit more," He Xingwen ignored his words, and said with a smile: "There are so many players and it's difficult to restrain them. It's inevitable that there will be conflicts. With demons around, I don't think the situation will get out of control."

It is impossible for the influx of hundreds of millions of players not to have an impact on the original order, not to mention the influx of players who are known to be disorderly.

This is the established fact why He Xingwen still took time out of his busy schedule to complete the expansion of the kingdom's territory - because the land of God's Fall simply cannot accommodate so many players.

To be honest, He Xingwen doesn't know what the concept of hundreds of millions of players is.

But one thing is obvious, the kingdom only has 12 npcs in total...

He Xingwen coughed, and attracted the attention of all other intelligent creatures who were stupefied by this number, and then continued to inform them: "In order to deal with these players, the Kingdom will send Kingdom people to stay on the top of the mountains, the endless forest and the Austrian Art Academy, I hope you will cooperate."

The scene was silent, and most people hadn't recovered from the astonishing number, and even thought that the king was using this as an excuse to move into the areas of the Arcane Academy that he didn't actually occupy.

"The rest..." He Xingwen thought about it: "In short, you should read this book carefully, and then tell others to prepare as much as possible."

The meeting ended in the bewilderment of countless aborigines.

What followed was that He Xingwen once again emptied the energy he had accumulated for a long time, doubled the number of npcs, and sent them to the other three areas.

The main tasks they went to were to serve as temporary resurrection points in these three areas, issue tasks for players, and build cities.

Who made the previous update include the Everfree Forest, the Peak of the Mountains, and the Academy of Arcane Arts into the territory of the kingdom, but didn't build tall buildings on the ground like the original one?

Can't we build a city?

Of course, the main purpose of building a city is to provide players with a place to stay—after all, the Mage Tower of the Arcane Academy will not be open to players, let alone the Everfree Forest, where there are no buildings at all.

But it's coming soon.

The npcs that keep coming out are taking this mission to the three areas where the aborigines are located. Among them, the mission on the top of the mountains is the least difficult, and the dwarves have the closest relationship with the kingdom, and their infrastructure capabilities are indeed leading the way.

And the difficulty of the endless forest is the highest, cutting down the forest?Daydreaming.

However, adapting measures to local conditions is one of the king's requirements for them, and it is impossible for the npc who went with the task to give up because of some difficulties.

After witnessing the continuous stream of NPCs formed out of thin air under the monument from the kingdom to the top of the mountains and other areas, Nubida thought about it for two days, and finally had an epiphany.

"In the political system of the democratic republic before the king, for other races, it sounds good: the kingdom accepts all races and allows this race to maintain the original social order, but at the same time, as a group, this race still needs to perform Assignment of responsibilities according to work."

Kenti yawned and said, "Well, there is such a saying."

Nubida: "Keep the original social order."

Kenti was taken aback by the sudden raising of his voice: "What do you mean?"

"So many people from the kingdom went to the top of the mountains, in the name of preventing players from intruding on the normal life of the dwarves, so another city was built, but at that time, countless players came and went to it. After a few years, you see that it belongs to the kingdom. Territory? Or a dwarf kingdom that retains the original social order?"

Kenti lowered his eyes disinterestedly: "Oh, what you said makes sense."

"In just a few years, if the number of players is indeed as high as the king said, in just a few months, the players and the people of the kingdom will be enough to become the mainstream in that territory."

Kenti nodded perfunctorily: "Then, the druids should have refused from the beginning?"

Nubida lost interest suddenly: "Then they must have a reason to refuse, and they must be able to refuse His Majesty the King."

As the global public beta date is approaching, the upsurge on various social media has become more and more lively, and the changes of the kingdom have naturally appeared on major social media for the first time. Excitement for the upcoming global public beta.

I don't know how many people are busy behind this, struggling to maintain the situation between the two parties, walking on a road that no one has ever traveled like walking on thin ice.

Ordinary people have the happiness of ordinary people, but the Special Investigation Bureau, or the Chinese government also has their troubles.

Repeated meetings, meticulous training, and linkages throughout the grassroots, the huge existence is active and ready for a tough battle.

"The main question is, in what name?" A person in the conference room spoke first: "Since the truth is not told to the public, then in what name does the government want to contact the grassroots?"

"Actually, I should have guessed it, I should have guessed it a little bit earlier," another person said: "After all, the ether courses learned in the game can work in reality, which is a strong hint in itself. It only depends on whether people who are interested in that direction Just think about it."

"For me, it's better to pack the truth and tell the public, otherwise we will be unable to move forward."

"It has been said about this, there is no need to repeat it, for most of the people, this is just a game."

"Then we should consider finding a good excuse to cover up our next behavior."

"How about winning glory for the country? After all, it is a global public beta..."

"It's a bit far-fetched, but it's okay."

"Then it's settled, Xiao Li, have the statistics come out?"

"The total number of holographic game cabins installed in Huaguo is 480 million...mainly composed of young people who have spread from cities to rural areas."

"It's a bit small," another person said objectively: "But in the absence of national mobilization, this number is already very good."

"The main reason is that the production of holographic game cabins can't keep up. I have already asked them to prepare more inventory. When the education system is reformed, holographic games are one of the reformed education methods, and the number will further increase."

"I am very optimistic about this point. After all, the recovery of Reiki has objectively affected everyone. As long as it is still functioning and plays an increasingly important role in people's lives, the promotion of holographic games will definitely come naturally and enter every household. .”

"Are you ready for other preparations? There is also a lot of pressure in the different world. Don't let so many players lose control and cause trouble."

"Using the village committee as a unit, Huaguo players established contact information when they installed the holographic game cabin. After the public beta, it is ensured that every new player can be contacted."

"His Majesty the King transported so many core parts of the holographic game cabin from another world, how is the recovery of the spiritual energy?"

"The ability of people with special abilities has been further strengthened, and ordinary people who have previously perceived ether have further strengthened their control over ether, and the concentration of ether has increased. Our initial judgment is correct. After the concentration of ether increases, the power of ether used by humans has indeed increased. .”

"What about wild animals?"

"It's still the same. At present, it seems that the change in the pattern between human beings and nature is inevitable. The area outside the human gathering area has become the habitat of animals, and the changes brought about by the recovery of spiritual energy have made the area they occupy It is difficult to be easily occupied by humans."

"In other words, animals are re-competing with humans to carve up the original resources of the earth."

"As long as it doesn't cause too much threat to humans, this is a good thing. There is pressure to be motivated. The earth is so big, and humans are not the only residents. They must be allowed to live."

And amidst countless preparations and expectations, what should come will always come.

Morning, sleepless night.

Countless lights are lit up on the earth, and countless people of different appearances, skin colors, cultures, and genders lie in the holographic game cabin, facing the darkness, thinking about countless disturbing thoughts.

It wasn't until the stars were shining brightly and the Milky Way was the background that they confirmed that the holographic game had really entered the stage of global public beta.

Pinch people, name them, and enter the game.

On an ordinary day, the kingdom ushered in hundreds of millions of new players.

Among the twelve cities in the Land of God's Fall, among the hastily built steel cities on top of the mountains, in the unfinished desert city of the Arcane Academy, under the treehouses where the Everlasting Forest has only roughly begun.

A series of white lights lit up, and the new players formed a huge crowd with an unstoppable momentum, starting from the most empty mountain tops, filling the entire kingdom.

The global public beta starts today.
