King from scratch

Nubida finally went to meet He Xiangwen.

Passing through countless rudimentary cities, meeting busy players, barely avoiding the end of being blocked by players, trekking hard to the depths of the mountains, and then Met the so-called 'them'.

In fact, strictly speaking, the composition of this "they" is extremely complicated.

There are players who are busy arranging the cavalry of the kingdom; there are also players who are covered in mud and looking around the mountains; there are also players who are squatting on the stone slabs to integrate the progress of the city construction of all parties and schedule the construction progress of the players...

There are so many, each with its own shape, it is difficult to generalize.

The freshly excavated tunnel still smelled of fresh earth, and the tools of the dwarves could be seen everywhere. Obviously, they were the main force in digging the mine veins, but to Nubida's surprise, the knights of the kingdom were also among them, helping the dwarves with skillful movements. Obviously not the first time doing it.

There are some fluorescent stones inserted on both sides of the long corridor, dimly illuminating the front.

Going deep along the corridor for several miles, suddenly there is a light, but it is the destination, a temporary place for discussion.

Nubida didn't see many kingdom knights here, but saw a group of arguing players, who seemed to be arguing about the direction of the mine veins below, and a few players squatted in front of the huge stone slab on the other side, whispering about the progress of the city's construction and other vocabulary.

Nubida was taken aback by the scene in front of him, then looked down at the muddy road under his feet.

This place, which can be called a cave, was obviously excavated temporarily, and the corridor in front of it was long and deep into the mountainside, looking for the exact location of the vein.

Nubida arrived at the destination, but didn't get any attention. Everyone on the scene was busy, as if they didn't notice the arrival of the devil at all.

Nubida was not in a hurry, and walked slowly to the side of the group who were arguing the most vigorously, listened to the debate about the direction of the mine, and interjected: "The ether can't determine the exact location?"

Someone turned his head and glanced at him, surprised by Nubida's outstanding appearance, but he didn't realize that this guy was a demon, and taught him: "Didn't I say that? The metal content in the bottom soil layer is too high. Aether can't tell at all."

The mountains have existed for too long, coupled with the fact that no one has arrived for a long time, they have formed a special soil layer structure over time, so that the ether cannot distinguish the specific situation in the mountainside.

This is not surprising, after all, the reason why the dwarves left the tops of the mountains after the kingdom split was because the tops of the mountains ran out of resources.

Where does this conclusion come from?

This conclusion was reached because the ether could not search for the veins in the mountains.

After the split of the Dwarf Kingdom, the Dragon Clan searched the tops of the mountains thoroughly, but returned without success without finding any treasure.

But it turns out that the depletion of resources on the top of the mountains is a wrong conclusion.

Luo Mu and the others have been stationed on the top of the mountains for thousands of years, because they installed parts of ether signal observers everywhere on the top of the mountains, and accidentally found several veins hidden deep in the top of the mountains, which proves that the group Not only did the resources on the top of the mountain not run out, they even still dominated.

Therefore, when hundreds of millions of players poured in, the knights of the kingdom stabilized the order, and prepared to build the city on the spot, the question before so many players and the Chinese government was, where would the resources needed to build the city come from?

All infrastructure and urban facilities did not come out of thin air. On the contrary, the total amount of resources required to build so many cities at the same time is daunting enough.

That's why He Xiangwen and his party are here.

They are going to count the total amount of minerals contained on the top of the mountains-this is a big project, and it has just begun.

But in front of this number of hundreds of millions of players, which thing they have to do is not a big project?

Too many players are the main cause of most problems, but again, too many players are the solution to those problems.

There are so many mountains on the top of the mountains. After the main mountain ranges have been gnawed by iron-eating ants, they are still continuous. Tens of thousands of peaks rise one after another, forming a trend of carrying the sky. Its vast area, once the dwarf kingdom. The power can only develop the outer area of ​​​​the top of the mountains.

It's not that they don't want to develop the entire mountain top, but that the entire mountain top is too vast.

But now?

Players are scattered all over the kingdom, even the endless forest that rejects intelligent creatures is no exception, let alone the top of the mountains.

The top of the mountains is divided into countless areas, which are the places where players are going to build a city.

These divided areas are enough to include the entire top of the mountains and develop them thoroughly.

After the task of counting the mine veins on the top of the mountains is equally distributed to each player, it can only become one of the countless daily tasks that make players complain, and it is not an embarrassing one at all.

But the problem is, before the players share it equally, they must at least confirm the location of the distribution of the ore veins - it won't be possible for the players to dig through the entire top of the mountains, right?

Therefore, among the group of players arguing endlessly, there is actually a big boss who is all about geographical surveys and mineral veins.

The power of the whole country is nothing more than this.

Nubida was uttered by the other party, and he also reacted. He moved to the center of the crowd's debate, glanced at the rough map of the tops of the mountains above, and asked knowingly: "Then what should I do?"

No one paid any attention to him, and the young bigwigs argued endlessly, but in the debate, the order of the survey was gradually determined.

Nubida didn't understand what they said, but he understood their purpose through the dialogue.

Not for a few veins, but for faster identification of all veins within the mountains.

Nubida was thoughtful, and He Xiangwen, who had finished discussing the progress of the city's construction on one side and the other, finally noticed the unexpected guest.

As soon as he got up, Nubida turned to look at him.

The two sides looked at each other, and He Xiangwen introduced himself: "Investigation and development team, deputy team leader He Xiangwen."

Nubida withdrew from the crowd who were still arguing, and said casually, "Nubida."

He Xiangwen looked around the extremely rudimentary cave, but couldn't find a stool, so he simply took two steps outside, and chatted with Nubida at the end of the entrance corridor at the front of the cave.

"The conditions are simple, and I didn't expect to see you here." Even though he said that, He Xiangwen was not too surprised. After all, although the news in the game is inconvenient, it is very convenient to pass the news outside the game. Da, passed the news back.

Nubida sized him up, and sincerely pointed out the way for the other party: "I don't understand the direction of the mineral veins, but even if the mineral veins on the top of the mountains are hard to call, you can find a mage to come, they have no idea about the ether. There is quite a lot of research, and I must be able to give a good solution.”

He Xiangwen was slightly taken aback: "This is not a problem..."

Seeing that the other party declined, Nubida suggested again: "The mage's personality is really difficult to get in touch with, so you can take a step back. Ai Zhijin clearly marked the price, and the transaction is fair, and you can ask them for help."

He Xiangwen didn't expect the devil's way to be so wild, he dug a hole when he came up, paused for a while, and said: "If necessary, we will contact the king."

There is no need to directly contact Ai Zhijin beyond the king. After all, His Majesty the King has made a decision earlier not to allow Ai Zhijin to trade with players privately.

Of course, from time to time, He Xingwen's original request was not to restrain them now, but for the purpose of maintaining cooperation with each other, there is absolutely no need for He Xiangwen to test it now.

Nubida didn't mind if he didn't trick the other party, and continued: "I just passed by the road and saw some players filling the road with stones. Are you planning to build a road from where to where?"

He Xiangwen had nothing to say about this question whose answer was clear at a glance: "There is no road on the top of the mountains. Since the road is paved, it must be from the top of the mountains to the land of the gods."

Nubida was not ashamed to ask nonsense at all. After getting the answer, he continued to ask: "Although there are places where cities can be built on mountains, I think the places where some players gather are not on flat places? Instead, they are on steep places. ? Isn’t this unsuitable for living?”

In fact, as Nubida said, the tops of the mountains, the Arcane Academy, and the endless forest are not fertile lands suitable for living. The mountains are steep, the desert is dead, and the forest... the forest has virtue The presence of Rui and the tree man made it even more dangerous.

Of course, this is normal. It is impossible for an area suitable for living to be sparsely populated, just like the Neiva Plain. The reason why the total number of intelligent creatures in the Neiva Plain is the largest on the mainland is precisely because the Neiva Plain is suitable for human reproduction.

Therefore, after determining the goal of infrastructure construction, the Huaguo government began to study how to adapt to local conditions and use the terrain—even on Earth, this has already been overcome by technology, let alone in another world?

He Xiangwen: "So, the players are busy making it livable." These stereotypes are meaningless, and He Xiangwen simply asked the other party: "You didn't come to me to ask these questions, did you?"

Nubida suddenly realized, as if he just remembered, said: "The Zerg is approaching the mainland, the king asked me to urge you to leave as soon as possible."

He Xiangwen frowned slightly, turned around and was about to return to the crowd.

Nubida was enthusiastic behind him: "But I think the player is busy right now, so I'm afraid I won't be able to find time."

He Xiangwen knows why demons are so notorious in the different world. They don't do good things and only do bad things. When others are in trouble, they gloat. On the other hand, it proves the power of the devil.

"There's room for this." He Xiangwen didn't reply: "After all, we have a lot of people."

Nubida said "Oh" and continued to ask: "Then what are your plans?" He added: "The Kingdom doesn't have so many weapons for you to use. With bare hands, even if there are many people, I'm afraid you won't be able to gain the upper hand."

He Xiangwen thought for two seconds, turned his head to look at the devil's increasingly handsome face under the light of Yingshi, and told him a simple truth: "The premise is that there are not as many people as we do."

He Xiangwen didn't let Nubida leave, so Nubida naturally stayed and watched the players' next move.

Before the changes in the South China Sea and the approach of the Zerg, and the resurgence of the mainland, many preparations in the kingdom were carried out one by one.

The sea in the kingdom became an inland sea, and a tall city wall stretching for several miles stood in the sea, separating the two sea areas.

However, the matrix along the border of the kingdom is still under construction. Although He Xingwen had a good idea before, to directly block the space of the entire continent to avoid Zerg raids, the speed of matrix establishment and other forces' distrust of the matrix directly delayed schedule.

In addition, it is the task of the public beta players to exterminate the mainland Zerg.

This is another thing that exceeded He Xingwen's expectations.

All the forces that can be contacted on the mainland are basically in front of the Zerg in the South China Sea, opening the door for players who exterminate the Zerg to eliminate snakes, ants, insects and rats.But the problem is that the kingdom did not knock on the door of the elf kingdom.

The players going to the Undead Canyon are not without news. According to the posts on the forum, they have already arrived at their destination, but the Undead Emperor obviously doesn't care about the authority of death being shaken as the devil said, so, The player is stranded in the Canyon of the Dead.

As undead creatures, undead, time is completely different from ephemeral species' concept of rising and setting.

Therefore, the players in the Canyon of the Undead did not catch up with the big show, let alone establish a communication channel for the kingdom and the Canyon of the Dead before the arrival of the Zerg.

But this is also normal. The Canyon of the Undead has not communicated with the outside world for so long, and the devil can only judge the opponent's thoughts based on a little contact with the distant time.

The connection to the Canyon of the Undead has not been established, so naturally there is no way to talk about the floating abyss.

Therefore, none of the Zerg races in the three territories were wiped out.

This kind of hidden danger, if given more time, will be resolved sooner or later.

But just because there was no progress in these three places, and the Zerg race in the South China Sea was approaching, He Xingwen could only focus on the South China Sea again, temporarily unable to find time to solve this hidden danger.

The order of the players has been rectified. In fact, with the extension of the global public beta period, the number of players is rising in an astonishing curve.

After all, the global public beta has only been three days since the announcement of the news, and most people have not reacted to it, let alone limited by the output of the holographic game cabin, players who are a little slower have to wait in line to install the holographic game cabin. Therefore, those who can log in to the game as soon as possible on the day of the global public beta are basically diehard fans.

A few days after the global public beta, it is the peak period when large-scale players gradually enter the game.

Of course, the holographic game is not comparable to other games. This holographic game that does not advertise has used the hot search as an advertising space to gain a sense of existence for several months, and its popularity has long since gone out of Huaguo and rushed to the world.

Coupled with the fact that the Chinese government uses holographic games as part of the educational reform, these things are like necessities, and they are rapidly flooding with the disappearance of quantity restrictions.

Even if the game suddenly became a brick-and-mortar game after the global public beta, it didn't affect it in any way.

This is why He Xiangwen said to Nubida that "there are not so many people".

Hundreds of millions of players are just the beginning, not the end.

The number of players is always increasing, but it is difficult to be noticed under the premise that the number of players is already large.

After all, less than one billion can be counted as hundreds of millions.

The player's next actions quickly attracted the attention of many forces.

First, the player goes into the sea.

Considering the pressure brought to the Diman Empire by so many players going to the Neiva Plain, the Special Bureau finally decided not to go on land, but directly into the sea, forming a defense line to block the Zerg from the sea.

The only problem is that if you stay on the bottom of the sea for a long time, you will lose your health.

That's right, for a player who looks like a human, but is actually just an ether ball, the setting of being unable to breathe underwater is only reflected in the fact that he loses his health after staying at the bottom of the sea for a long time.

In addition, as long as the player overcomes the fear of drowning, he can completely walk in the water-until the life value is exhausted and he is resurrected.

This problem is actually easy to solve. Whether it is ether or technological products, there are ways to breathe freely underwater, but it is still the same old problem, there are too many players.

Even a great magician can't cast such a large-scale spell on hundreds of millions of players, let alone technological products. Players don't even have weapons, let alone other things.

So, the question was eventually put aside.

The number of these players entering the sea one after another is extremely large, and it seems that there is no end to it. There are always players coming from the kingdom and joining the defense line.

The function of Kingdom Knights in this is mainly to ensure that players enter different teams.

Although the number of people is large enough to fill the periphery of the South China Sea, before the war, the Special Investigation Bureau still had a rough team division, dividing the internal beta masters, public beta players, and the final global public beta players into different queues to ensure that they would not interact with each other. interference.

After all, apart from the global public beta players who know nothing, the public beta players have already changed jobs, and the internal beta masters are all well-equipped, and there are many existences who can reach the full level by one level.

The great players naturally divided the team and acted as temporary commanders. The last attack on the Arcane Academy gave them experience in how to command a large-scale multiplayer team battle.

Of course, the number of players on the scene... is indeed a little too much. The command is so fine that everyone can't even think about it.

In addition, the temporary resurrection point among the players is used as the final guarantee to ensure that the players can hold the line of defense and firmly suppress the enemy's aggressiveness in front of the Zerg with the advantage of immortality.

This coastline can be said to be long and boundless.

Normally, even if other forces bordering the South China Sea block their territory, they will definitely not be able to completely block it.

But isn't the Zerg too unlucky to meet the Kingdom?

So the Zerg army probably didn't think that when they were only a few feet away from the mainland, what they saw was not a flat coastline, but players full of pits and valleys.

At first glance, the name of the South China Sea could be completely changed. If the surrounding currents were not the same, it would be enough to make people mistakenly think that it is in the sea where the mainland rather than land creatures cannot survive.

The most common word to describe the Zerg is Zerg as far as the eye can see.

Now it can be changed to a player, the crowd is bustling, the noise is constant, the front is long and vast, and the end of the sides can't be seen, and the end of the front can't be seen.

It's like a solid human wall. Although there is no order, it is impossible to form an effective charge at all, and most of the players are unarmed, and the combat power is so low that it can be ignored, but as long as they stand there, it is enough to declare that the Zerg is here. The second offensive intention went bankrupt.

Although the Zerg army has controlled most of the intelligent creatures in the South China Sea and even countless corpses by virtue of its parasitic advantages, the players...

They can completely block the Zerg's way forward purely by their numerical advantage.

There are even many players who have no concept of the map. They walked along the coastline all the way to the edge of the South China Sea where it is connected to the broken and sporadic ground debris. They didn't see the Zerg army from the beginning to the end.

This long line of defense lined up along the coastline of the South China Sea and the mainland, with one end on the Beast God Plain and the other on the top of the mountains, with endless players in the middle.

When war begins, there are no trumpets.

In fact, because the players in the sea area on the top of the mountains are closer to the Zerg in a straight line, the players in the sea area at the front end of the Beast God Field had already fought the Zerg army before they even saw the Zerg.

And when the players in front of the sea area of ​​Beast God Wilderness finally waited for the Zerg, the players in front of the sea area of ​​Land of Fallen God were still doing nothing.

This scuffle was more intense than all the wars recorded in the history of the different world. It was rare in the world due to its large scale, short duration, and few casualties.

The player attacked the Zerg with a crushing attitude.

The unarmed players suppressed the Zerg to the point of retreating again and again by virtue of their numbers.

After so many players joined the battlefield, the infrastructure construction in the kingdom was still going on simultaneously, and a considerable number of players did not participate in the task of exterminating the Zerg.

This mission has attracted a large number of players because of its rich rewards and the ability to spawn monsters indefinitely. However, there are always players with different pursuits, such as life players, or players who are grassroots cadres.

Compared with the players who participated in the mission, the few players left in this part are a minority, but because the base is too large, even if it is a small part of the majority, the number is still extremely large.

And the players in the melee in the South China Sea easily suppressed the Zerg army, and even recklessly passed through the Zerg army repeatedly-as for how many times the player died during this, it was not worth mentioning.

On the flip side of the great situation, there is no progress in the task of exterminating the Zerg.

Even after the players at both ends quickly defeated the Zerg army, the surface of the South China Sea was dyed pitch black.

Their real target finally appeared after the host was headshot one after another.

Then the players had to face a terrible situation where they couldn't do anything. They looked at the black liquid in blank dismay, and even tore off some of the black liquid that was splashing on their faces.

When the players at both ends have progressed to face the Zerg itself, the players outside the coastline of the Land of Fallen God have not yet met the Zerg army - because in terms of straight-line distance, they are the farthest from the Zerg.

After the player confronted the black liquid for a while, and no one could do anything to the other, the Zerg changed its strategy, suddenly passed the player, and headed towards the continent behind the player.

The player has no choice but to watch the black liquid continuously spread on the sea surface.

The black liquid conscientiously polluted the clear water in front of it. After passing through countless layers of players, it finally saw the shadow of the continent frame.

They went on, and then found that there seemed to be something else on the shadow of the continental frame.

The color of the water is getting darker, almost black.

The long-awaited team standing on the beach took out...bottles of insecticide spray in one order.

It was the insecticide spray recovered by He Xingwen from the player who had previously taken the task of exterminating the Zerg in the mainland, and some of the insecticide spray newly produced from the production line.

The quantity of these insecticide sprays is not enough for hundreds of millions of players, barely equipped with 10,000+ Kingdom Knights-this is why the Beast God Wilderness and Diman Empire allow Kingdom Knights to enter their own territories.

Because the number of kingdom knights in their territory is really not many-compared to the number of players in the sea.

But this is enough for them to stop in front of the blackened sea, complete the final finishing touch, and write the terminator for this Zerg army that has made the entire continent look sideways.
