How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

I collected my thoughts and looked at the new function panel on the Heart of Herontis.

After the diplomatic incident ended, the delegations of the two empires and the player guards returned to their respective empires to prepare for the opening and occupancy of the war zone. Originally, I also planned to return to the empire to rest temporarily.

But at Noah's invitation, and with Alice having her aunt and sister Qiu Ru to take care of her, she chose to stay in Kanallan for a few days, and Hill and the others also stayed with her.

Of course, there is another reason why I stayed.

That was the reward Alice gave herself after the diplomatic incident ended yesterday.

In addition to a special wish that was agreed to within the scope of authority, which I had not thought about yet and put on hold, energy, ten copies of the script, and monster nest ** paper, there were also two blueprints of special buildings.

To be precise, both copies are based on the open annex building of the Great Library and are built on the third floor of the Great Library.

One is the Hongtu conference room, which enables Hongtu to be deployed in the selected area by investing resources.

A grand plan is actually an event. To put it simply, you can now create various event effects to attract players. According to your own wishes, you can revise the goals of the event to achieve the effect of guiding the players.

However, the conference room is still at the primary level, with only one empty seat for a grand plan. If one wants to create an event like the [Imperial Diplomacy] that just happened, it will take at least two months of cooling down. Even the [Eternal Night Madness] from the forest ruins will probably take a month of cooling down.

In addition to the cooling time, you also need to consider your identity and channel. For example, during [Eternal Night Frenzy], there is the so-called Imperial support effect, and the Imperial Quartermaster can obtain supplies and exchange rewards.

Although there is no need to worry too much about this, because there is still the monastery that can provide assistance, the Constantina Empire can barely get rid of Isabella and others, and Levis has also established "good" diplomatic relations. The only limitation is that the deployment events can only be carried out in these areas.

Of course, the resource investment here is also a considerable expense.

Because I didn't think of any need to use this function, my attention was focused on another drawing -

Demon Expo.

Similar to the original function of the Great Library, special areas are constructed through blueprints and book pages. The difference is that the former creates copies, while the latter creates dungeons.

If a copy is a copy for a single team, then a dungeon is a copy without any limit on the number of people.

Moreover, you can transform monster gathering places in the dungeon, use energy to evolve your monsters, create monster groups and bosses with special abilities, plan the space in the dungeon, and arrange special terrain.

The purpose of everything is to kill players and obtain energy points from them that are better than those in ordinary monster gathering places.

Players can also obtain special materials from monsters killed in the dungeon to enhance their own attributes, or transform skills and gain special abilities, and these abilities are only effective within the dungeon.

Sound familiar?

Yes, this is the effect of the Undercity Ruins incident, which was copied by Alice and many detailed settings were added. It is not a short-term event, but a long-term game content.

“Damn capital demon.”

I couldn't help but curl my lips.

I finally realized that when I was testing the Undercity Ruins, I was just helping Alice with the testing in advance. Other testers get paid for checking the process operation, but Alice was better. She killed two birds with one stone by using the event effect. She not only watched a good show, but also got a job for free to check whether the game function of the dungeon was feasible.

It’s a pity that I was so enthusiastic at the beginning. In Alice’s eyes, my feelings were as friendly as those of a university intern.

However, this dungeon did give me a good idea.

There is no limit to the scope of the dungeon created through the Demon Expo. Theoretically, a huge dungeon world can be built under the entire continent, but that is purely a waste of time right now.

Not to mention that the resource investment is an astronomical figure, he doesn't even have that many blueprints of monster nests to create groups of monsters of the corresponding levels to fill the dungeon.

If it is only built on a small scale, it would be a waste of the name of this dungeon.

It just so happens that the opening of the war zone has brought a huge amount of traffic. Not only the top-quality equipment and props exchanged for imperial honor, but also the excitement brought by PK will definitely attract a large number of high-level players to pour in, and there is no need to worry about the subsequent energy gains.

Yes, my idea is to build a dungeon in Levis territory.

It is not just as simple as intending to attract players from the Orwen Empire. Since the choice is to build in the war zone, it is natural to choose a more exciting direction, which is to use the characteristics of the war zone to add fuel to the fire from both ends.

The territory of Levis is at most slightly larger than a region of the empire, and it is like a strip between the two empires. In simple terms, it is relatively long and narrow.

With the thirty thousand energy points obtained from Alice through diplomatic events, plus the nearly one hundred and sixty thousand energy points accumulated by himself, he should be able to build two entrances in the towns near the border of Levis territory in the Orwin Empire and the Constantana Empire respectively.

At worst, I could just build the dungeon narrower and longer so that the two places could be connected.

I asked Alice, if a dungeon is built in a war zone, the dungeon will also be included in the war zone, which means that players from neighboring countries encountered in the dungeon will also be hostile.

Hostility often means fighting, and fighting means casualties.

At that time, you can launch some special activities and monsters with special rewards to stimulate the players on both sides, and add fuel to the fire from both ends. Then, the energy points in between will come in continuously.

I couldn't help but give myself a thumbs up for this idea.

……

I forgot to wish you a happy holiday, happy May Day.

Chapter 65: Imperial Coup

Just when someone is still thinking about how to better obtain "profits" from players.

The door of the room was suddenly opened, and two figures stepped in one after another.

I looked up and saw Hill, Sherlock, and the shadow of Ahri.

"Are you back now? Where are Edith and the others?"

I was invited by Noah, and Hill and others also stayed with me.

In order to reward them for their hard work during this period, I also let them have a good rest during these days, walk around in Kanallan, and enjoy the last few days of the coronation ceremony.

"Your Highness, there is something I need to report to you."

Hill put Ahri down from his arms and spoke in a serious tone.

After falling to the ground, Ahri shook her snow-white fur, jumped into my arms in two steps and transformed into a human form. She found a comfortable position and lay down comfortably.

"what happened?"

I keenly sensed something was wrong from Hill's tone. I rubbed Ahri's head and looked up at Hill, only to find that both of them looked a little solemn.

"Your Highness, Miss Hill and I went back to the Demon King's Castle and Berghead to take a quick look at the situation, although there are no problems here for the time being." Hill did not answer, but Sherlock took over the conversation first.

"But Victoria reported something to me, and there was also news from Grantham."

Sherlock paused for a moment before continuing.

"A military coup has occurred in the Obenro Empire."

"coup!?"

I was shocked and asked quickly, "What's going on?"

The coup d'état that could be mentioned by Sherlock and made the two of them take it so seriously was obviously not a small matter. Perhaps even the power change within Levis that just happened could not be compared to it. After all, Levis was just a kingdom, while Obenroke was at the level of an empire.

After Sherlock's description, I roughly understood the whole story.

It was mentioned before that because of the war between the Dark Camp and the Light Camp more than 80 years ago, the situation in the Dark World became turbulent due to the loss of the Demon King's bloodline after the war, and party struggles broke out within the major empires.

The transition to a new regime was accompanied by blood and fire.

The current ruler of the Obernro Empire, William the Great, emerged under such circumstances. As the leader of the liberals, he cleaned up the corrupt royal family and was elected as the new emperor. During his reign, he used thundering means to purge the rebellious forces in the empire, and in order to maintain the stability of his own position, he strictly restricted the power of other regions.

In addition to the royalists and liberals, there are also small neutral factions in each of the major empires.

Arnold, the governor of Port Rosas, the hub city of the Trans region in the north of the Obenro Empire, is from the neutral faction of Obenro and was not overly involved when the party struggles were fierce.

This also enabled him to escape the subsequent power purge.

But not being purged doesn't mean there won't be trouble.

When the struggle was fierce, he refused William the Great's order to send troops, and was regarded as a thorn in the side of the other side. Although Arnold and his forces were entrenched in the north and managed the entire Trans region into a stable situation, they could not withstand William the Great's overt political suppression.

Various decrees and administrative policies targeting the Trans region were issued from the capital, and although they were intermittent, they lasted for nearly fifty years, resulting in great restrictions on the economic and military development of the Trans region.

Arnold knew he was in the wrong, and he endured it silently for so many years.

Until seven days ago, not long after the diplomatic incident began.

In the name of restoring the Tyronn royal family, he joined forces with Elton, the governor of Morcade, a hub city in the northeastern Harris region, who was once an important liberal figure but was now excluded from the political center, and launched a military coup.

War is always accompanied by various intelligence, and after the military coup broke out, many inside stories were revealed.

It turns out that Arnold is the prince's illegitimate son and also has the blood of the Terran royal family.

The reason why it chose to break out at this time was because it received the assistance of a huge army.

This army is the royal guard trained by the Terran royal family, called the Blood Owl Legion. They are loyal only to members of the Terran royal family. More than eighty years ago, they were sent to the front line to support the Light and Dark War, but they got caught in space turbulence in the battlefield outside the domain and went missing, which indirectly led to the retreat and defeat of the Obenro front.

It was not until half a year ago that he passed through the space turbulence and returned to the Aobenro Empire, and settled in the northern Trans area. After contacting Arnold, he learned that the Terran royal family had been destroyed, and only Arnold had the last trace of blood left.

Out of loyalty to the royal family, he decided to help Arnold defeat William the Great and restore the rule of the Tyron royal family.

The Blood Owl Legion has a size of 300,000 people. After the space turbulence and years of fighting on the battlefield outside the domain, many people died. Fortunately, the space turbulence seems to have affected the concept of time. The more than 80 years in the outside world have only passed for more than ten years for them, and they still retain nearly 200,000 legion soldiers.

This Imperial Guard is powerful in itself, and with the support of the secret treasure of the Terran royal family, it is well-equipped and can defeat enemies that are several times their number.

Together with Arnold and Elton, there are nearly 900,000 regular troops.

The remaining rebel forces within the empire also took advantage of the situation to launch a resistance, making the situation even more chaotic.

However, William the Great was not simple either. He quickly integrated the imperial army and built a tight defense line around it to counter the frontal attack of Arnold and Elton. At the same time, he sent troops to attack the flanks to relieve the latter's offensive pressure.

The entire Aobenro Empire was thus divided into two major camps: the northeast and the southwest.

By the time the news came back, the war had spread to the south.

If Berghead and Flor were no longer sure of their positions, then it was obvious that someone would make the appropriate choices for them. Even though Berghead and Flor's strength had been greatly reduced due to the expedition, with only a total of more than 300,000 troops, at this moment, one more troop meant one more help, which would have a far-reaching impact on the war situation.

"So, I have to choose between William's family and Terran's family? Tsk, don't they welcome referees? Or the third camp is fine."

I curled my lips.

I had just solved the problem of the Kingdom of Levis, but before I could rest for long, trouble came again. What's more, this trouble was an imperial coup, and I couldn't stay out of it at all.

"If Your Highness thinks so, they might knock us out first." Sherlock smiled and stated the facts ruthlessly, "Even if we are not knocked out, we, the third camp, can't stand up to them head-on."

Just as I rolled my eyes at Sherlock.

Hill suddenly spoke up.

"Your Highness, perhaps we are qualified to be the third camp."

Chapter 66: Inina's True Identity

Hill's sudden voice attracted the attention of both Sherlock and me.

"Hill, what do you mean?"

I asked with some curiosity.

Hill did not explain immediately, but brought the topic to an inexplicable direction, which was the prop [Fictional Reality] that played an important role in previous diplomatic events.

"Your Highness, what do you think of fictional reality?"

"Very powerful, it can directly change the cognitive effect from the rules."

I thought about it and told the truth.

Could it be that Hill intends to use this ornament to participate in the coup in the Aobenro Empire?

But Hill’s next sentence made me stunned.

"Does Your Highness think this is still an ordinary ornament?"

After being reminded by Hill, Sherlock seemed to have discovered something. "Your Highness, after hearing what Miss Hill said, I had a vague feeling that this ornament has unusual magic power. Changing cognition should only be a superficial ability."

"Could it be..." I suddenly thought of something and looked at Hill with a questioning look, "Is it a holy object?"

"Yes, and it should be a complete holy relic, but most of the magic power has been sealed."

Hill nodded.

Sherlock's black eyes sank, and a gleam of light flashed. "It seems that this Inina is not just an ordinary demon, or it is not certain whether she is a royalist. After all, what we know about her so far is what she said."

"But what does this have to do with the coup in the Obenro Empire?"

I suddenly thought of the topic we were originally discussing.

"Your Highness, do you remember what Inina said about when she came to the Light Camp?"

"Fifty years ago?"

I said subconsciously, and was soon stunned.

This time point was nothing in the past, but it was a bit tricky when it came to the Aobenro Empire, because that was around the time when the Terran royal family was purged and the royal power was replaced.

Based on Hill's words, a vague guess emerged in my mind.
