MTL - Online Game: Island War-Chapter 1 "Island War"
Phew~! Glancing at the room that had begun to blur in his memory, Lei Jiu let out a long sigh of relief. It seemed, probably, he hadn't come back for almost seventy years. The private space that he once cared about had long since been buried in his memory without knowing it. Which corner of the floor is gone.
If it weren't for the closure of "Pro War" and everyone was expelled, the probability of Lei Jiu's own initiative to quit the game was infinitely close to zero.
Opened the refrigerator, took out a can of Coke, opened the tab, raised his head and drank it dry in one breath, hoo~! Cool!
This virtual personal space is good. Even if 70 years have passed, there is no need to worry about things going bad. Picking up a bottle of sour plum juice and opening it, Lei Jiu walked over to the sofa and fell down, looking at the ceiling being filled with mouthfuls, fell into deep thought.
"Professional War" is closed, that is, in reality, 50 years have passed?
How fast! However... he was also too addicted. The time flow of the virtual world and the real world passed in parallel in strict accordance with the ratio of 10:1. "Pro War" will run the game for 500 years after the server is opened, and then Shut down, it's something everyone knows on their first day in the game.
However, 500 years is too long, and there are not many people who forget the closing time.
Of course, this is not the reason for forgetting, because in the last period of the game, the atmosphere in the entire game world has completely changed, so that you can't even pretend to forget it. After all, it's time to commemorate.
People are talking about this everywhere, talking about 500 years of gaming experience, 500 years of mental journey, ups and downs and bitterness, laughter and surprises.
The whole world is full of nostalgia and reluctance.
Everyone, regardless of whether they are brilliant or ordinary, whether they are good or bad, must say goodbye to this world where they have lived for 500 years. No one can be an exception.
So, in such a big environment, one can forget about the closing of the game. Lei Jiu, who is almost completely derailed from the world, is also called a strange man.
Lei Jiu, gender: male, nationality: Han, biological age 26, single, one of the first 10 million interstellar colonization volunteers on Earth. Two hours after boarding the colony spacecraft, he, like other colonization volunteers, lay in the freezer to "sleep" and began a cosmic journey that is expected to take 100 earth years.
To be able to start the cosmic colonization plan, the technology on the earth has already undergone N leaps, and it has been able to connect the thinking consciousness, set up a virtual brain, and simulate the entire nervous system. Therefore, even if Lei Jiu's entire body, including his brain, has been frozen, his mind can still move in the virtual world.
After Lei Jiu "sleeps", the place where consciousness first appeared was here, in his private space. It's just that at that time, it was really simple and simple to describe it as a family. The current comfortable environment was created by him with a lot of thought.
After that, "Professional War" started. Like other volunteers, Lei Jiu began to fight in the game world.
Lei Jiu is not a pure game fan. To tell the truth, this kind of 100% virtual reality, all senses 100% real game world, there must be no comfortable private space to live comfortably.
So at the beginning, he didn't plan to enter the game immediately, but... for some reason, the virtual world did not open a virtual community. Except for the family members who can live under the same roof as recognized by law, there is no one at all. Other ways to communicate and communicate with people, the whole private space is like an island, Lei Jiu is Robinson who drifted to the island, at least for Lei Jiu who is alone on the boat.
Lei Jiu does not have autism, and there is no internet in his private space for him to stay home. Therefore, entering the game is his only choice, and the same is true for other volunteers.
The full 500 years of game life in "Pro War" can be regarded as extremely fulfilling, and other people can't imagine the fulfillment. Even Lei Jiu's few close friends who have maintained a relationship for hundreds of years do not fully understand that his life in the past 500 years will be so fulfilling.
Recalling the past, 500 years of earning his life, actually Lei Jiu felt a little embarrassed.
However, "Pro War" is closed anyway, and everyone will usher in the second game of the cosmic journey, a world that everyone will live in until the ship reaches the target planet and everyone wakes up from "sleep". , I don't know what kind of surprises this world will have, Lei Jiu is still a little longing.
"Volunteer Lei Jiu No. CHI2222222, the game "World War", also known as "Island War", will be launched 1 hour after the virtual world time, please be prepared. Some basic information of the game is open, and you can check it yourself through your personal terminal! "A neutral voice suddenly sounded in the room.
"Thank you! The center of the earth!"
"You're welcome!"
The center of the earth is the intelligent core of the Pioneer colony spacecraft, and it is also the terminal, chief designer and GM for erecting, managing and running the game world. In the days before "Professional Warfare" was released, it was a reliable partner who ensured that Lei Jiu would not go crazy, even if it did not respond to a few words from Lei Jiu.
Knowing that no matter how much he said next, the center of the earth probably wouldn't respond, so Lei Jiu obediently took out the pad to study the information of the new world.
"World War"? Judging from the name of the game, the mode of the new game may have some changes! Previously in "Pro War", the basic unit of battle was the individual player, and the war revolved around player guilds and unions. "World War"? Will it be more likely to join the lord mode?
Also known as "Island War"? Um! It further increases the possibility of the existence of the lord mode. At the same time, it is foreseeable that the ocean area of the new world will be larger, the land scale should be relatively small, and players will appear on islands.
A lord mode world with a relatively small land scale? How does this play? Lei Jiu touched his chin, a little confused.
Hey, forget it, let's look at the data first.
In "Island War", players can choose two initial identities: adventurer and island owner.
Adventurer, this kind of identity is not much different from the previous game world. Players use "individuals" as a unit to join the torrent of the new world. After entering the game, you will be born in a random location on the world's only continent - Laia Continent (family members can be randomly selected in groups) and begin your adventure career.
After the player who chooses the status of the island owner, after birth, the world will create a small island with a radius of 1 km in a random position in the ocean, and start with 10 subordinates. Then, the island owners have to conquer others while working hard to build their own homes with their subordinates.
While possessing power, individual island owners can also upgrade, hone their skills, and equip themselves like adventure players.
It seems that the advantage of being an island owner is much greater than that of an adventurer.
However, volunteers still have to be careful when choosing.
First of all, Laya Continent has a systematic city, a complete professional advancement system, and a rich leveling location and dungeon system, which is very suitable for developing and improving personal strength. And the island where the island owner is located... slowly build it yourself!
Secondly, the upgrade of the island owner is the same as that of ordinary adventurers. Only those who are directly killed by the island owner have experience. The island owner’s subordinates kill monsters, and the island owners are not divided. When the island owners manage and build their own islands, they will occupy A lot of time and effort. Therefore, generally speaking, the level of the island owner player will be more touching.
At the same time, it is very difficult to improve the personal level in "Island War", and it is not a routine of first easy and then difficult. It takes roughly the same amount of time (note, time, not experience) to go from level 0 to level 1 to go from level 499 to full level 500. For the vast majority of ordinary players, each level up takes about a year. That is to say, most adventurers will not reach the full level until the game is closed. Compared with "Professional War", the upgrade of "Island War" can be described as a turtle.
Although this kind of setting makes people feel a little hopeless, but in the process of leveling up, you have to brush skills, and you also need to collect resources to train your body, practice Qi, or meditate.
However, in this way, the time occupied by the island owner players cannot be compensated by other means. Normally, the personal strength of the island owner players is not comparable to that of the adventure players.
In the end, the cruelty of the war between island owners, the winner inherits everything, and the loser has nothing. The failed island owner player will become an adventurer player again, randomly born to the Laya continent, and then desperately chasing the gap left by other adventurer players. One step behind is bound to fall behind.
Of course, even so, there are countless people who are willing to be island owners. Those who know people are wise, and those who know themselves are clear. There are not many people who can really see themselves clearly. There are many people who think they will become the winners. After all, everyone has a dream of a head of state buried in their hearts.
It's just..., with each volunteer, there is something called wealth points, which directly determines the amount of supplies that volunteers can get after arriving on the colonized planet.
And wealth points, in addition to the settlement of personal assets when boarding the ship, must be earned by volunteers in the game. Levels, equipment, forces, these will be uniformly settled when the game is closed.
Island owner players, it can be said that as long as they can support the game until the game is closed, they are absolutely worth hundreds of millions and become standard winners. However, there is a very high possibility that the failed island owner players are not as good as ordinary adventurer players.
As for the 500-year world hegemony, it is conceivable that the number of island owners who can survive to the end is destined to be small.
This is a choice that is closely related to future interests. Most people will consider it carefully, carefully, and carefully, and Lei Jiu belongs to the remaining small part.
From the very beginning, he never thought about options other than the island owner.
Why? Because of the adventurer mode, he really played to the point of vomiting, in the previous 500 game years that were extremely fulfilling.
