Infrastructure starts from the game

With the efforts of many rune masters working overtime, the first cloud server downtime incident finally ended smoothly, and no one noticed that it was an "accident".

Citizens and tourists even said "do it again".

"Everyone thinks this carnival night is great!" Mayor Owen conveyed everyone's opinions, "I hope we can come again every festival!"

So you hope that the server will crash when the festival comes? !

Angor almost wanted to show Owen himself a broken one on the spot.

As far as Magic Gear is concerned, the impact of this server crash is not so easy to end.

A BUG brings continuous BUG.

Although it was resolved peacefully on the surface, the collapse of the server still brought huge losses to Magic Gear.

"After this 'Holy Ghost Carnival BUG', the magic points of all players have generally increased by more than [-] points. This is the point value that you expect it will take them another two months to get it." Mithril announced ruthlessly road.

This report was originally assigned to Silver Leaf, but the succubus boy lay limply on his bed as if drained dry, not having the courage to report the bad news to Angel for the time being.

Even Angel himself was nestled in the middle of the sofa like a puddle of mud.

The black cat didn't care about its owner's already severely injured mood, and reported: "Based on the player's current magic power points, I am afraid that the item store can be emptied in an instant and all games can be cleared."

Simply put, it is inflation.

The magic point is something that Angel created for this carnival.

It is also the "Cecilia's approval value" collected by preparatory magical girls like Shirley.

It looks a lot like experience points, but it's not.

After all, reality is a garbage game!

As far as real games are concerned, in the same fighting game, Jack can bloody his opponent in the first round, Enlis can enter the top of the leaderboard with a little hard work, and Angel is stubborn bronze after hundreds of hard work.

Players like Angor don't have the spirit of a masochist, and they will probably give up the game soon.

Therefore, from the perspective of game planning, it is best to use Enlis's level as the standard line, so that most players have Enlis's level, which is conducive to the healthy development of the game.

But in reality, magic is a super hardcore game.

Only a very small number of people can obtain the qualifications of magicians. Enlisi only passed the magic power appraisal after working hard, and most people could not even pass the magic power appraisal.

In order to encourage these "ordinary people", Angel designed this numerical system to give a little "reward" to those without talent.

For example, Shirley can use it to exchange for magical girl transformation costumes;

Game table players can redeem more game times;

Players in the magic arena can exchange for more combat props;

Even a housewife like Mrs. Rachel can exchange points for hotel discounts.

That way everyone can have fun.

Instead of wanting to give up because of the delay in rising the magic power level.

So to Angel, the magic points are more like game currency than experience points.

But this carnival is equivalent to issuing a large amount of game currency to everyone, which directly leads to inflation and even affects the future planning of Magic Gear.

"The current suggestion is to increase the game value to achieve point consumption," Mithril tried to reduce the loss of the workshop, "strengthen the difficulty of combat and the difficulty requirements for completing tasks, and increase the exchange points of some key items..."

"Forget it!" Angel made a dying voice.

He looked at the ceiling blankly with panda eyes: "My mother in this life has passed away for more than 100 years, so don't let everyone go to greet her, it's too hard for her old man."

"Then what do you say?"

"Ha ha."

The black robe let out a gloomy laugh.

On the third day after the Holy Spirit Festival, a large wave of players approached the magic gear.

According to the old customs, the two days after Holy Spirit Festival are called "Sundays".

According to legend, because the carnival night of the Holy Spirit will attract demons, people will stay at home on the second and third day after the carnival night to celebrate the festival with their families, so these are also the two most leisurely and peaceful days for people in a year.

Of course, the shops are also closed for these two days.

But for the people of Cecilia, they have never experienced such a difficult "day keeping".

To be precise, after such a press conference and such a carnival night, people's wallets are already hungry and thirsty, and everyone can't wait to rush to the magic gear to buy and buy immediately, and they don't want any holiday.

But people don't know that the insidious black robe is not only eyeing their money.

Little Poirot was also part of the crowd.

He was not alone, and brought a group of classmates with him.

A group of little boys sat neatly on the newly opened tram in the city, looking like they were going on an outing, causing the passers-by around to look at them frequently, wanting to find out where their teacher was, but they didn't know this group of boys The child went to the Magic Gear Unity to shop with pocket money.

"Listen up!" Poirot imitated the teacher's tone and said to his classmates, "this time we have reached the magic gear, don't look at other places, go to the counter of the broomstick first, no matter how much it is, buy the broom first Besides! If you don’t have enough money, come and ask me for it!”

"Little Poirot, do you really have that much money?" a child questioned.

"Hmph! Did you see the game crystal ball at the press conference?" Poirot puffed up his small chest and said proudly, "That was produced with the technology I invented, and I have a lot of patent money. Woolen cloth!"

"You invented the game crystal ball? Can you give me one?" The eyes of the children lit up.

"I don't have that yet!" Speaking of this, little Poirot's face darkened, and he said with the understanding of a nine-year-old boy, "Patent money is equal to the money you get from selling the goods! Everything is sold, Of course I don’t have any! I managed to find the old man to get the patent money back.”

In order to "get back" the patent money, little Poirot fought with his father for more than ten days, and his ass was beaten to pieces. In the end, old Poirot couldn't stand his noise, so he finally agreed to give him part of it.

Of course, this is also because the weapon shop has really made a lot of money following the magic gear this year. Seeing the situation of the press conference, it will continue to make a lot of money next year, so Old Poirot is a little bit loose.

Little Poirot couldn't wait to return the money to the magic gear.

"My patent money is still a little bit, enough to help you buy broomsticks."

But little Poirot obviously had his own plans. He stared at his little friend and said, "But don't get me wrong! I didn't buy the broomstick for you! If you want to play, you have to exchange it with magic power points! The magic arena rewards me with various magic props to help me get a higher ranking on the leaderboard! Do you understand?!"

"Got it!" the boys responded.

The boys are generous with the magic points.

As the first batch of beneficiaries of the education pilot, their magic power level is higher than other citizens, so they have taken advantage of the "monster hunting" operation at the carnival night. Everyone has accumulated a large amount of magic power points, and they are planning how to Use it!

Now there are "local tyrants" who are willing to exchange money for points, of course they are willing to exchange them.

"However, is that 'magic arena' so fun?" A child also asked curiously. He had never been to the magic gear before, so he was very curious about this game: "What is the leaderboard you are talking about?"

"I'll teach you when we get there." Little Poirot didn't want to say more.

He didn't want to reveal that he lost to a girl!

Originally, little Poirot was the first player to win the "Magic Arena", and he also had a good score in the top ten of the leaderboard, but after entering the winter vacation, a guy named "Litty" chased him up and occupied him tightly. He won the top three positions on the ranking list, and from time to time he took a few friends to act together, making little Poirot fall out of the top ten.

The most irritating thing is that people always compare Little Poirot with Letty, and exclaim, "Little Letty is the best!" "As expected, if Letty is here, Little Letty will be the first to reach the top of the magic ring!"

Isn't it natural that Letty is better than me? !

It is convenient to hear that she is a friend of Miss Enliss of the workshop!

And she is 12 years old, three years older than me!It's an old woman!

Little Poirot thought unconvinced.

(Liti: Enliss, don't stop me, I'm going to beat this stinky brat to death!)

Little Poirot specially brought his classmates here this time, just to get the place back.

At this time, with the voice of the announcer, the tram stopped.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Little Poirot showed his command ability when he was cheating, and led his little partner towards the magic gear.

However, the team fell when they reached the Avenue of the Brave where the magic gear was located.

There were a lot of people in Magic Gear, and the queue lined up from this end of the street to the outside, which was expected by little Poirot, but what puzzled him was that there was a huge fountain outside the store of Magic Gear, and many people Line up around that fountain.

"What is this doing?" Little Poirot asked strangely.

"The Holy Spirit makes a wish!" The passer-by replied.

This is also a tradition after the Holy Spirit Festival. After the observance of the Holy Spirit, everyone will go to major temples to listen to the priest's lectures and visit the statues of gods according to their respective beliefs, praying for better luck in the coming year.

"...But, doesn't the Holy Spirit make a wish to go to the temple?"

"It's not that kind!" The passer-by said vaguely, "The fountain of the magic gear will really give gifts!"

The children couldn't move their feet when they heard the "gift". They stood by the fountain curiously.

Right now, a slightly fat man lined up in front of the fountain.

I saw him solemnly washed his hands, then bowed in the standard posture of kneeling down to the God of Light, and muttered to himself: "Great Holy Spirit Fairy, please give Maya's bride a figure! Please please please please!"

Then he took out his membership crystal in an exaggerated gesture and drew a prayer rune.

The golden powder representing the magic power points in the crystal immediately floated out, surrounding the statue of the Holy Spirit Fairy in the middle of the fountain, emitting light, so ten light balls fell from the hands of the Holy Spirit Fairy, and fell on the platform in the pool.

These photospheres come in several colors and vary in brightness.

Among them is a red light ball that is particularly dazzling.

"Wow, this brightness seems to be SSR!"

"And red is the representative color of "Magical Girl", maybe it's really Maya's figurine!"

"Did it come out?!"

Seeing this, several passers-by discussed that they looked as if they had participated in the lottery in person.

The man also held out his hand tremblingly.

He didn't dare to touch the brightest light sphere, but touched the two lightest ones separately.

One is [SR: Broomstick Helmet·Red Model], and the other is [SR: The Way to Win the Magic Arena·One Time].

The former directly appeared on the platform, while the latter flew into the membership crystal as an icon.

It's clearly a mixed pool with everything.

After seeing these two items, the man swallowed his saliva before touching the brightest light ball.

The ball of light immediately emitted a more dazzling light, and a beautiful shadow appeared in the light, vaguely wearing a wedding dress.

Shiny fonts also emerged.

【Lisa Wedding Dress Version】

The man knelt on the ground all of a sudden: "It's almost there! Damn it!"

"Anyway, it's a figure of a magical girl! It's almost there." Someone comforted him.

"No, how could my wife be the same?!"

"Hey, they are all 12-year-old girls, what are you thinking?"

"You are! Can't tell the difference between the movie and the reality? I like Maya in the movie, not the one in reality!" The man roared back unwilling to show weakness, "The brat in reality is so noisy, who would like it? !"

The two seemed about to fight, and the one behind simply pushed them away: "You guys have to fight while you fight, don't let the Holy Spirit Fairy see such an ugly look! The next one is me."

So that person also began to "sincerely" pray to Fengshen.

The little boys didn't care about any figurines, but the helmet that the uncle just drew made them a little excited.

"It seems that the broom suit can be smoked in this pool!"

"And there is no money here, just magic points."

"Shall we try it!"

Little Poirot suddenly jumped up anxiously: "Wait a minute, this is different from the agreement! Didn't you agree to buy a broomstick with me?! You can actually get it in your hand! You may not be able to draw it here. !"

"But what if you win the draw?"

"Yeah, it seems like you don't need too many points at one time. If you hit the first serve, you can get other things."

"Maybe I can draw both a broomstick and a crystal ball at the same time!"

The friends objected.

Everyone looked at the hot eyes, completely ignoring the fact that more than [-] people will produce an SSR, and this SSR may not be what they want, and they all feel that they are the chosen one.

What's more, the magic points this time are almost free, and everyone feels that it is more cost-effective to use them in the fountain pool.

What an unreliable bunch!

Little Poirot would not be fooled by this!Seeing that he couldn't persuade this group of people, he had no choice but to walk into the store by himself, but he heard someone talking to his classmates from behind:

"You want broomsticks?"

"That's right! Uncle, there are broomsticks in this pond, right?"

"Of course, there was someone who won the lottery just now! And the prizes drawn in the pool seem to be limited editions, not only the color number is different from the ordinary ones sold in the store, but also the prizes of the players who were drawn. name."

"Wow, that's great!"

Little Poirot retreated silently among his friends.

His companion gave him a strange look: "Don't you buy it?"

"Hmph, I'm different from you, I'm lucky." Little Poirot raised his chin and said.

He also wants a limited-edition broomstick!

Besides little Poirot, there were some strange people in the wishing team at the fountain.

"...Your Highness Roy, do we have to line up like this?" Miss Su asked, frowning slightly.

In fact, she didn't really line up.

This time, Crown Prince Hyde and his party came out with Recifia. The lady prepared her own table, chairs, carpets, flowers, tea and snacks as usual. There were a few noble ladies from the royal capital who were laughing at Miss Recifia for putting on a show. , but it comes in handy here.

Now Recifia and the crown prince were sitting at the table with their own parasols, drinking and eating snacks, and their own servants lined up for them, while those noble ladies were not eligible for seats.

Miss Su got a chair because of the Crown Prince, but she obviously didn't feel comfortable sitting on it.

Although Ms. Su and the noble ladies of the royal capital are not friendly, but for the sake of the "common enemy" (Recifia), they can barely get along with each other. Now she is the only one who is treated favorably. These noble ladies will regard Ms. Su as a target to be defeated.

Miss Su did not ask the prince, but asked Recifia.

Recifia sipped her black tea and said with a half-smile: "Of course we don't have to wait in line! Let's go to meet the owner of the alchemy gear now, and we can get the best reception right away."

"No need!" Crown Prince Hyde said immediately.

He didn't want to see that black robe at all.

Although His Royal Highness the crown prince has not figured out what happened to the "assassin incident" that day, he vaguely noticed that he must have suffered a lot.

So although Crown Prince Hyde became interested in magic gears because of various alchemy games, and even once had the idea of ​​poaching the alchemists here to serve him, but now he has completely lost this idea.

Of course, the unexpected handsomeness of the black robe was also one of the reasons why Crown Prince Hyde was unwilling to see that person again.

But Crown Prince Hyde couldn't put down the various game items of Magic Gear, especially after hearing that there was a multiplayer battle game called "Magic Arena" on the third floor of Magic Gear, he couldn't hold back any more. look.

As a result, I encountered the "Holy Spirit Wishing" outside.

Crown Prince Hyde was very interested in this: "I heard that the color of the game crystal ball in this fountain is different from that in the store. I wonder if I can win it."

... No, don't those crystal balls all look the same? !

At most the base is a little different!You've already collected one of the big, medium and small ones, why would you want one from the fountain?

Miss Su looked at the Crown Prince speechlessly, unable to understand his interest in collecting lipstick numbers.

"I also think it's a little pointless to go directly to that black robe and buy directly from him," Recifia said with a smile.

She turned to the direction of the crown prince, but if she looked carefully, her eyes did not fall on Prince Hyde at all, but looked at other places: "Only if you draw it out by yourself, it means that you have a destiny with this item! "

"Yes! That's it!" Crown Prince Hyde agreed loudly.

During this time, although he had some complaints about Duke Roy, he was very satisfied with his fiancée!

They have a common language in this aspect of the game.

Leia not only customized a variety of game tables, each game has a collection, but also familiar with the rules of each game, which made him reluctant to leave the Duke's Mansion, especially Leia also promised to use her own name to go to Hei Pao customized a super game table like a pipe organ as a gift for himself (although the materials and money are still paid by the crown prince himself, but is the crown prince a person who lacks this money?), this kind of friendship makes Crown Prince Hyde very happy. move.

When the father takes back the title of Lord of the Eastern Realm, he should leave a place in his harem for the pampered little Leia!After all, she must not be used to the hard days of exile.

Crown Prince Hyde decided so.

Recifia felt the crown prince's gaze, and couldn't help but shudder.

She didn't know what this piece of fat was thinking, anyway, it wasn't the time.

Recifia covered her face with her fan, and looked at the team: "Ah, it's your turn, Your Highness."

"Hmph, is it finally me?!"

Crown Prince Hyde stood up, but saw Recifia take a step back, giving up her position to Miss Su.

What a humble and obedient character!

Hyde was even more satisfied with Recifia.

But the focus now is of course not his (scheduled to be abolished) fiancée. Under the blessings of everyone, Hyde strode towards the blessing pool.

Although Crown Prince Hyde did not participate in the carnival night and has no magic points, the Blessing Pool accepts another more traditional method of wishing——

Crown Prince Hyde snapped his fingers, and his two servants poured a box of gold coins into the pool.

Amid the exclamation of the crowd, a large group of light balls flew out from the hands of the Holy Spirit Fairy.

Although he wasn't sure if there was anything he wanted in this pile of light spheres, Crown Prince Hyde's lips curled up in the astonishment and disbelief of the fools around him.

This feeling is what he wants!

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

"We have recovered 60.00% of five's magic points, and the rest is expected to be achieved tomorrow, and we can even earn a fortune!"

Mithril reported that it found the report rather boring: "Why do you always have so many wicked ideas?"

"It's just a routine operation." Angel said indifferently.

He was still nestled in the middle of the sofa like a puddle of mud, not wanting to move at all: "How is it? Are the problems solved?"

"Where is it solved?" The black cat glanced at Angel unceremoniously: "Not to mention the various impacts caused by the server crash, there is also the stocking situation this time, next year's budget, the projects to be developed, and various other things. What kind of thing!"

"Wait a minute, I'll get you the report." The black cat jumped off the sofa.

Angel was silent for half a minute, then got up from the sofa and walked out the door.

It was only when he stepped out of the door that he stepped on two "corpses".

"Ah, sorry..." Angel looked at the other party and noticed their faces: "I remember you are..."

"I am Erbi, and he is Nair." Erbi smiled with dark circles under his eyes.

Erbi still can't understand what happened.

He remembered that on the second day of Holy Spirit's Day, when he was still "keeping the day", he was pulled by Neil to bring the magic gear.

They brought some high-quality rune materials as gifts, and they just wanted to pay a "simple" visit to the black robe, so as to impress themselves when applying for the post-Holy Ghost Festival.

As a result, after entering the magic gear, they were only asked three sentences:

"Are you rune masters?"

"Can you work right away?"

"Okay! Let's get started!"

Then from being fucked at that time to now, the whole person is numb, and fell asleep on the ground casually.

Fortunately, the black robe seems to have admitted their status as employees: "By the way, you are the newly recruited high-level rune masters! You have worked hard! You have worked hard! You have done so many things since you came here."

"Ah, it's okay..." Erbi replied with some embarrassment.

He didn't know that he should take advantage of the trend to get along with the boss?Let's talk about salary.

Unexpectedly, the boss stopped him and Neil and said, "To reward you! How about going on vacation with me? Eat, stay, and play!"

"Vacation?"

"Well, go to Academy City!"
