Chapter 7: An Awkward Encounter (7)

Or one day, the league or team is in trouble, so that the moon god still wants to give up this money-losing business after all, then we can only retire or find our own way.

Xie Liuying: "Don't think about it so much, in short, on the road of career, where you go, I will go too." In this way, at least each other will not be alone anywhere. ”

Hearing her words, my heart moved, and I didn't know what to say for a while.

Xie Liuying: "Don't think too much, just the two of us, how can we play if we are not in the same team?" ”

I can only nod my head in acknowledgement.

Another week passed, and I was halfway through my vacation, but in the meantime, I had won over 2 streamers and 2 pros, giving "Grudge" seven entries at this stage. However, this week has been a bit bleak for the game, and in just one week, the total number of players has lost five percent, and the reason for this is that it is easy to be pitted by teammates in the treasure chest.

But now, just a week later, the game has a new event called "Original Heart Condemnation", which has made the wind of the entire game and public opinion turn 180 degrees. As I guessed before, this event is precisely the "aftermath" of the previous secret volume.

At the same time, the event itself once again ushered in great controversy. Its appearance really made players who had betrayed their teammates before take shortcuts, as well as players who wanted to take shortcuts, complained.

The rules of the event are that players who obtain the starting chest in the secret scroll will receive a debuff, which means that for a week, any location is no longer a safe area for the player, and the player's location coordinates can be viewed in real time on the event map by players within a 10 km radius and friends in the friends bar. When killed by any player, the player involved in the kill can split a certain amount of money and materials equally. At the same time, the self will be inflicted with a debuff similar to the debuff after the bounty is killed, which stacks up to five times and is active in all gameplay of the game.

For each time the player who obtains the starting chest is killed, the teammates who participated in the Secret Scroll at that time will receive a gold and material reward equal to a quarter of the proceeds after the chest is divided.

At the same time, if the player is online for less than 10 hours in a week, the system will automatically deduct the amount of gold and materials equal to the number of starting chests, and if the current player's inventory and body are less than the amount of money and materials, it will be deducted from the future game income. Anyway, there are many ways to get these money and materials, as long as a person continues to play, he is not afraid that he will not be in debt.

As a result, the previous inner ghosts were completely dumbfounded. First of all, the bad things he did were completely disclosed after just one week, because everyone knows that whoever has a debuff on him is the inner ghost who didn't admit it when he hacked the treasure chest. This debuff is not only visible in the current status screen, but also in the friends bar. In this way, his reputation in the game social circle is completely stinky.

If you choose not to go online for a week, you will not only waste a week's game time and character growth time in vain, but also make yourself pay such a big price and all the benefits you have gained will be recovered by the system. But if you choose to go online, you will inevitably face a group of bounty hunters and former teammates. When the time comes, the five layers of debuffs will be stacked, and don't say that they are teammates who go to play dungeons together. Even if it's a trumpet that isn't at the full level, it can easily kill you. At the same time, no matter where you are, you can't be protected by the safe zone mechanism, others can kill if they want to, and you can't escape to a no-man's place to hang up. As long as there is one person within a radius of ten kilometers, their location will be exposed.

If you want to get the benefits of your hack, you have to endure the humiliation and spend these ten hours without any gaming experience, and at the same time, you have to accept the reality that you will be discredited from now on.

In more detail, the system grabbed all the players who turned back in the passage but didn't get the starting chest. They also have the same debuff on them, but the debuff lasts for a day instead of a week. If the online time is less than one hour in a day, the amount of money and materials equal to one share of revenue will be deducted. At the same time, the player will not be able to enjoy the income subsidy received after the ghost of the same team is killed during the event.

This is also the meaning of the word "original condemnation", you have a crooked idea and want to do something bad, but in the end you are one step slower than others and you don't do it. In this way, you will naturally have to be punished accordingly, but the punishment will be relatively small.

In this way, the players who quit the pit in the previous week immediately became "really fragrant", because as soon as the list of your enemies was announced, you can naturally have revenge and revenge, and there will be rewards after killing. Second, even if you don't do anything and just hang there, as long as your "enemy" is killed more than four times by other players in ten hours, then you can get compensation that is greater than the original profit.

As soon as this event was launched, all the game forums exploded. Everyone discussed the quality of the event and tried to analyze how to maximize the revenue of the event based on their own standpoint. And everyone found that the number of people who wanted to turn back but didn't get the treasure chest was actually three times as many as the number of people who got the starting point chest. This is another resounding slap in the face in today's online environment - some people don't want to do bad things, they just happen to fail to do it.

Players who didn't get the starting chest and got the debuff on it felt wronged. I obviously didn't get anything, but I still had to be hunted down by others, and I inexplicably became the biggest loser in the two activities before and after.

And various game media, and even local TV stations, have also hyped this event to a very high level, saying that the two controversial events before and after have pushed the planning to the forefront. Some good things and the media that are keen to lead the war have raised the theme to the level of "online games torture human nature".

Other dissenting media outlets said that "even a game of 'fishing for law enforcement' is a self-digging grave." In the end, even a major television station invited experts in various fields to debate the matter in the investigative part of the news.

But as a professional player and a member of the league, it's clear to me that there's always room for discussion, whether you're in favor or against. And everyone quarreled back and forth, but in the end, it was still the game that raised the popularity, and made a steady profit.
