Players’ NPC daddy

Chapter 2193 Orc Curse Chapter 55
"Myota?"

"If I said yes, would you believe me?"

"Does it matter whether I believe it or not? There are too many people who want to play that infamous urban legend, so whether it's true or not is no longer important."

Dali Feizhuan relaxed. The near-realistic virtual stealth technology almost made him forget that this was a virtual world. Even if he really ran into this evil leader, there would be no problem.

The player can resurrect infinitely, just as he cannot directly destroy Myota and eliminate the threat forever, Myota also has no way to deal with him.

The important question is, why is Muta waiting for him here?

As if understanding the confusion of the powerful flying brick, Muta waved his hand casually.

"I didn't wait for you here on purpose; it was just a coincidence that we met here. Perhaps fate really does exist."

Dali Feizhuan didn't speak, but stared at Miaota, trying to peer into the depths through the holes in the smiling mask, but he saw nothing but darkness.

"You guys held an event in the orc region recently, right? That's great. Only people with high reputation can participate. I wish I had raised my reputation too," Muta suddenly said, her voice tinged with envy.

"It's not just about reputation; it also requires approval from Hermes's Hat and the Kingdom of Giants. Only players approved by them can participate."

Dali Feizhuan said coldly, realizing that these words were nothing more than attempts to sow discord.

The violent crimes committed by players in Azazel are secondary; their primary goal is to steal special quests and items from other players.

The dozen or so players invited to the Gianthoof Tribe had reputations built on their achievements, were incredibly skilled in combat, and possessed luxurious equipment. They also had many special missions, making them Azazel's target.

Muta merely made a deduction by combining the sudden disappearance of these dozen or so players with the special mission in the orc region.

Previously, their Fairy Kingdom enthusiasts were also Azazel's targets for tailing and tracking, which is why their movements towards the orc region after entering and leaving the giant's capital were discovered.

The event was anticipated, so the route for transporting eligible players was kept absolutely secret, entirely controlled by [Hermes's Traveling Hat], and even they were unaware of it.

"I see. So you're planning to use special missions in the orc region as leverage to increase your world reputation and salvage the game's image, huh? That's impressive. But your team probably doesn't have enough people. It must be very tough."

Muta wandered around the ruins of the burned-out village, his tone sincere, as if he were genuinely worried about Dali Feizhuan and the others.

Dali Feizhuan did not speak, responding with silence, as he would have previously acknowledged Muta's words.

In the history of gaming, there are precedents of players saving games, but these precedents all require a large number of players to invest, and most of those games are well-made and have a good reputation, but they just lack marketing.

However, Godlock is an extreme case. Not only is it a massive virtual stealth game with huge operating costs, but it also has an extremely bad reputation. It has won awards like the Golden Raspberry and Golden Broom, which are specifically for games with extremely poor reputations.

Superior technical capabilities and game quality are the only hope.

Now that the herbivorous orcs have successfully completed a decent farming activity, and everything has gone smoothly, increasing the player's world reputation, the advantages of this super high level of technology and game quality will be amplified infinitely.

Of course, Kate Cat also provided selfless support as an investor, offering operating funds.

After considering all possible problems and anticipating the market and player enthusiasm, their plan had a high probability of success. There was no gambling involved; it was all about laying the groundwork step by step, like sifting gold from the mud and showing it to everyone.

However, there is still an unsettling element: the Azazel. It's not that the Azazel are monsters with incredible destructive power, but rather that they are a large group representing a playable option for players.

Just as countless genuinely passionate players can revitalize a game, countless malicious players can easily destroy it.

"How about I save this game?"

Miuta said quite abruptly, and Dali Feizhuan almost burst out laughing.

"So, you're planning to invest in this game? That would be very welcome."

“That would be so boring, wouldn’t it? Things in a game are only interesting when they unfold within the game itself.” Muta shrugged, tilting his head to stare at the Mighty Brick through the holes in his mask.

"The reason this game is called 'terrible' is not because of its low world reputation, but because of its poor NPC interactivity. Players have to rely almost entirely on themselves to understand the world."

"But among the huge player base, only a small fraction have the time and energy to complete this long, confusing, and increasingly difficult 'tutorial' as player reputation increases."

"Giving players a great deal of freedom, allowing them to choose for themselves and find out what kind of 'person' they want to be here, is very romantic. But unfortunately, most players are blind. They are more accustomed to following and fitting themselves into more convenient identities."

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Dali Feizhuan frowned, unable to bear Muta's rambling and talking to himself.

"Destroy all peace."

"what?"

Dali Feizhuan was taken aback, while Miaota gradually got into the swing of things, like an actor singing on a stage, his voice loud and clear, vividly performing the whole comedy all by himself.

"The balance between kingdoms is broken, alliances are fragmented, people are suffering, war breaks out everywhere, and the banner of rebellion is raised. The chaos in the Third Kingdom will spread throughout the world, and all those with power and status will begin to crave the strongest power in the world."

"That's a stranger!"

"The problem of poor interactivity has been solved, as has the problem of low player reputation. In this world of war and crime, players will become the true protagonists."

Muta crossed his arms, shook his head, and sighed. The protagonist who sang enthusiastically on stage had become a working-class person struggling to make a living.

"I didn't know how to do this at first. After all, this world is too realistic. Those in power will start wars for their own interests, but they will never allow the order to completely collapse. That's when you gave me an idea!"

Miuta walked step by step to Dali Feizhuan and stretched out his hands as if to express his heartfelt gratitude.

"Why not just let the orcs start a war? They are the largest race in the world and have a well-defined social structure."

"As soon as the Great Beast God gives the order, all the orcs will come out in full force and launch a fearless attack on the human territory."
