Build a game empire from scratch

Splash is very curious about the [Dragon Ball] in his hand, but the introduction of the system is confusing:

[Dragon Ball]: Collect all seven Dragon Balls to get a mysterious gift (probably).

Gift? What gift? Shui Hua had no idea.

And, why do you say roughly?? Is it so imprecise?

Unlike Splash's curiosity about [Dragon Ball], more players focus on what Huolong said before he escaped—

The fire dragon can talk?! Is it an intelligent creature??

It said that the dragon girl was abducted? The dragon girl? Not [Young Dragon], nor [Dragon Princess], but [Dragon Girl]?

Does it mean...human form?

Can a dragon become a human? Is this fire dragon male or female?

Mother, when I flew over my head before, I could see clearly that there was nothing between the two legs.

???

In other words, she is the sister-in-law of [Dragon Girl]?

Sister-in-law! If you say that, I won't be sleepy! You say, since she is wise, can she negotiate? I will help her find a niece, can she let me ride?

Then do you want to ride a dragon or a human?

Hey hey...

...

When there are many people, the chat content is completely uncontrollable, and it is easy to turn in strange directions.

Nevertheless, everyone slowly reached a consensus:

[Fire Dragon Invasion] In this event, in addition to fighting the fire dragon on the bright side, there is also a dark line of looking for the dragon girl.

Players who find the dragon girl will most likely have special achievements or item rewards.

Thinking about it this way, the players became enthusiastic.

After all, everyone can participate in fighting with fire dragons, and the rewards will naturally be available to everyone.

To a certain extent, the things that all people have, however good they are, are not good enough.

So everyone is still very motivated about Looking for the Dragon Girl.

But the question is: how to find it?

Theoretically, [Dragon Girl] should be a female character who did not exist in the metropolis before, but suddenly appeared after 0:00.

But the problem is: the metropolis is full of people!

No one has ever counted the number of virtual NPCs.

The ones that everyone is familiar with are those who have appeared in missions, have too special looks, or store employees who often go to the store, and the rest will not be specially remembered at all.

——Who would memorize what some passers-by look like when they have nothing to do?

Moreover, the metropolis, or the entire virtual world, is constantly changing and growing. New shops, buildings, events, and virtual characters are often added by Yunmeng unconsciously.

By the time everyone found out, several days may have passed.

In this case, trying to find an NPC that didn't exist before and that no one has seen is akin to finding a needle in a haystack.

Many people think it's nonsense when they think about it, so they just forget about it and try other games.

For them, anyway, the scale of this event is so large, and it's not just the metropolis that is full of excitement.

If you have the time to find someone, you might as well go to Dinosaur Island to fight dinosaurs.

How fresh it is! Almost like a new game.

Of course, some people give up, and some people are very interested.

At least Lin Shun and Shuihua, two high school seniors, ran around the metropolis together at the risk of being caught falling asleep in class the next day. Whenever they saw an unfamiliar girl NPC, they ran over and asked if it was a dragon. female.

Very inefficient, but they have fun doing it.

It wasn't until early in the morning that the two of them went offline to rest.

As for the trace of the dragon girl, there was no trace at all.

They weren't the only ones who didn't get anything. Even if many anchors mobilized fans to search together, they didn't have a clue for the time being.

There are also a lot of similar topics on game forums and social networks.

It's a pity that they don't know anything about [Dragon Girl], so they can only search hard.

Considering the phrase abducted that Huolong said, all the underground gangs in the metropolis were devastated, and without exception, the players broke into the door and dug three feet, just to find [Dragon Girl].

After all, such a thing as kidnapping sounds like it was done by bad guys, so of course you have to copy the bad guy's lair first!

It's just a pity that the operation was massive and still nothing.

All gang bosses know nothing about this matter.

Just when things were at an impasse, the incident caught the attention of another group: casual players on the peaceful map.

When the fire dragon invaded at the beginning, a large number of casual players did not participate at all.

Don’t look at the [Metropolis·Freedom] map, hundreds of mirror copies have been issued, the scale is amazing, but at the same time, the number of [Metropolis·Peace] map mirrors is more than five times that of the free map!

The number of casual players far exceeds that of heavy players.

However, they are not very interested in fighting, so they did not participate in the fire dragon battle.

But the current Looking for the Dragon Announcement aroused their curiosity, and for a while, they began to flood into the Freedom Map to look for the Little Dragon Girl.

——Although casual players in Daxia are already offline and sleeping at this time, it is not late at night in many other time zones, and overseas players are full of energy!

As a result, after Dinosaur Island entered the hunting era, the metropolis also entered the dragon hunting era.

Countless players dug three feet in the metropolis, trying to find the dragon girl.

It's just that they all fell into a thinking inertia: since it is an event in the metropolis, they only need to look for it in the metropolis.

They didn't realize that although the playground now belongs to Paradise and has become another game, and there are exclusive New Year's Eve activities, at the very beginning, the playground was a part of the metropolis!

Not to mention that after the virtual world is connected, all game scenes are closely linked together, and the scope of search is far beyond the metropolis.

If they don't realize this, even if they tear down the Metropolis, they won't be able to find the target person.

On the other side, after Fire Dragon failed to leave the stage, Xiaomeng returned to the small sofa of the space carrier to look for Linyou with her mouth squinted, her little face was full of unhappiness.

Aren't you having fun? Lin You asked with concern.

No... Xiaomeng denied it first, and then said aggrievedly, If the master hadn't made the dragon so weak, Xiaomeng wouldn't have lost.

Lin You was a little dumbfounded.

The original version of the fire dragon that Xiaomeng made is completely different from the one that is showing up now.

In Xiaomeng's design, [Fire Dragon] is a high-level magical creature with a really high status, and she can control all elements related to [Fire].

——Just as [Thunder Dragon] can control [Electricity], [Ice Dragon] can control [Water], [Forest Dragon] can control [Plant]...

It's just that after being weakened by Lin You, he can only breathe out dragon flames, and even washing his body with dragon flames has become a big move.

But Lin You had no choice but to do it.

After all, in the metropolis, the main weapons of the players are all kinds of modern hot weapons. If the fire dragon can control all the fire, then she can not only be immune to all fire damage, but even prevent bullets from being fired.

The same goes for modern weapons such as grenades, machine guns, and artillery.

That player is still playing a fart!

So it won't work if you don't cut it!

Lin You could only put down what he was doing, hugged Xiaomeng in his arms, and comforted her while rubbing her little head: It's okay, I can use magic tomorrow.

The second dragon to invade Metropolis will be [Forest Dragon]. This is the dragon that has been weakened the least by Lin You, and its magic ability is relatively intact.

By the way, the dragon that was most weakened by Lin You was not [Fire Dragon], but [Metal Dragon].

Before it was cut, this dragon could tear down the entire metropolis within 10 minutes.

——In an urban environment, controlling [metal] is an almost invincible ability, which is why Lin You cut him the hardest.

After the [Metal Dragon] is cut, at most one street can be demolished in 10 minutes, and the weapon in the player's hand can no longer be controlled, so the combat power has dropped drastically.

Even so, if players want to win, they will inevitably face a hard battle.

...

Under Lin You's comfort, after a while, Xiaomeng became happy again.

Hugging Lin You's arm, he stared at the holographic windows in front of him with great interest.

Many activities are updated at the same time tonight, no matter how serious Lin You is, it is impossible for him to fall asleep in peace.

When Xiaomeng went to the metropolis to have fun, he had been monitoring the dynamics of players in various games.

It wasn't just him, it was a rare group of Yunmeng employees working overtime tonight. The game teams and operation teams all kept online and cared about the progress of the event.

As compensation for overtime work, in addition to the normal overtime pay, tomorrow's working hours have also been changed to 2 p.m., which can be used to catch up on sleep in the morning.

At this moment, in front of Lin You is the most comprehensive player data:

The hottest area with the highest player density in the entire virtual world is undoubtedly [Dinosaur Island].

The players brought by Super Tomato have already emptied the explosives reserves on the ship.

If someone talks to the captain again, the mission can still be taken, but the captain of the explosives has not even mentioned it.

In order to estimate the combined power of all the explosives, Super Tomato asked all the players to pile up the explosives they got for nothing to see how many there are.

The results were pretty outrageous—all the explosives together were just about the size of an entire hunting boat.

On the hunting boat, the captain looked at the huge pile of explosives on the shore, veins popped out of his forehead, and his eyes were red with anger.

But Super Tomato is still dissatisfied: It's only so small, it's not enough to fry the melting mountain dragon, how stingy.

——He said this because he thought Yunmeng was petty, but when the captain heard this, he almost rushed off the boat and chopped him down.

Except for the big team of Super Tomatoes, the other players act in small teams, fast-moving teams, and their weapons have been upgraded for the first time.

For the first upgrade, the reinforcement is not exaggerated, mostly regular attributes such as [Sharpness], [Armor Piercing], [Toughness], [Bleeding], [Nexteracy].

Only a few lucky players obtained rare materials and upgraded attribute damage such as [Primary Poison], [Primary Lightning], [Primary Frost], [Primary Flame Tongue].

As for armor, only the meat shield is often strengthened in a team.

If the tank fails, or the tank dies suddenly, causing the prey to rush to other players-both of which happen often, then...

Each according to his own ability!

In addition, after the first strengthening, the weapon also got rid of the previous blank board state, and the shape has changed, becoming more refined and shining coldly.

The shape is more handsome, the power is stronger, and the damage is higher!

This kind of direct and clear feedback makes the players' desire to hunt even more bursting.

Tonight there will be countless hunters who will stay up all night until dawn.

...

The place with the second largest number of players is not a metropolis, but a playground.

And the number is still rising, depending on the trend, there is great hope of surpassing Dinosaur Island!

Players from all over the world called their friends and relatives to the virtual world to rub giant pandas.

The giant panda is not an ordinary animal, it is very popular all over the world.

It's a pity that it's too difficult to see giant pandas in real life, and even if you do, you can only watch them from a distance. It's not like in the virtual world, you can touch and hug them casually, and you can have as much fun as you want.

Compared with other game activities, in the eyes of casual players, this overwhelming giant panda is the most exciting!

Considering that it is already early in the morning in summer time, most casual players in East Asia have already fallen asleep, and the current flow of people in the playground is far from the peak.

It is foreseeable that after get off work tomorrow, the playground will welcome a large number of tourists.

At that time, it will be the peak of the online rate of players in the playground.

...

Hunter: Call of the Wild has also been updated.

Just in order not to completely distract the players, the mission of chasing the murderer has not been officially released, but it has only released the shackles for the mysterious murderer.

In other words, players can no longer only see the traces of the murderer, but cannot contact the murderer.

Now the murderer has started to attack the player!

The murderer can attack, and the player can naturally fight back.

It's just that the situation is not optimistic at the moment——

It is too difficult to fight against an opponent who is burly, powerful, experienced in combat, and can even be invisible.

At the beginning, the players were not mentally prepared, and often when they were concentrating on aiming at their prey, they were suddenly stabbed in the back of the heart and died suddenly on the spot.

Stealth often means first move.

In the case of hunting each other, it goes without saying that the first mover has the advantage.

In the first half an hour after the update was completed, the players didn't even realize it, thinking that the event would not start until Monday morning, when Yunmeng made an official announcement.

It wasn't until there were more and more bizarre deaths that the player community realized what was going on, and scolded the production team for their insidiousness while looking for countermeasures.

The first countermeasure they thought of was the trap.

Hunter has developed to the present, and many simple traps that are common in reality can be hand-rubbed by veteran players in the game.

Even if you don't know how to make traps and sprinkle dead leaves and branches around, as long as it is detailed enough to leave no gaps, and the invisible murderer approaches, it is likely to make a sound to give players an early warning.

[Anti-stealth weapon, silt] was also excavated by players for the first time, and a more convenient way to use it is being developed.

This is a comprehensive test of patience, wisdom, skill and combat effectiveness.

And once they succeed, they will unlock a new way of playing that the Metropolis News did not announce.

Lin You has great confidence in them.

...

Next, Lin You shifted his gaze to the map of [Virtual Xia Jing], wanting to see the feedback from the players.

But at this moment, Xiao Meng suddenly shook his arm and said, Master, some overseas players are not satisfied with the update!

Lin You couldn't help knocking on her pink head: The player is not satisfied, why are you so excited?

Hmm... Xiaomeng put her head in her hands, Because their dissatisfaction is very interesting.

Really... let me see.

Lin You looked at the post opened by Xiaomeng——

[Night City's newly updated Seaside Paradise made a serious mistake! ]

This is a post by a Spanish player. It took less than 20 minutes to post, and it has already received more than 60,000 comments, and most of them agree!

Considering the current user scale of Yunmeng in Spain, this number is quite astonishing, even to a certain extent, it can represent the collective demands of Spanish players.

Subconsciously, Lin You sat up slightly, and carefully looked at the content of the post——

——

Such a huge beach, such a long coastline, there is no corner, is it prepared for naturists?

Strongly protest against such unfair treatment!

Of course, we also know that different countries have different cultural customs.

I believe that Yunmeng, as a big summer company, did not deliberately target it, but probably did not realize this mistake.

We can understand this, but we hope that Yunmeng will hear our voice and make up for this mistake as soon as possible!

This will become the best example that Yunmeng respects cultural diversity and fully values ​​user opinions!

So, please join me in calling out our demands——

[Seaside Paradise needs a nude beach! 】

【We need to peel off the disguise and embrace nature frankly! 】

——

...

After reading the post, Lin You fell into a long silence.

He was thinking about a question: Is there something wrong with him, or is there something wrong with these users?

Everyone has been waiting for a long time, and the two chapters are published together.
