The Lakeside Hotel, with its unremarkable name, is one of the top reception venues in Lake City. Compared with the relatively retro and aging hotel facilities that existed when the city was founded, the main thing is to improve the quality of the garden: the greenway around the lake that surrounds the large lake, and the 3,000 acres of forest area in the city center. What stands out is the authority and status.
In the early morning, the hotel park is full of green plants and birds singing. On the green path around the lake that runs through the lake, four people, Long Qi, Li Taisheng, Liu Chengzai and Yuan Wuwei, were jogging in the morning.
Compared to the other three, Yuan Wuwei was a lethargic one. The main reason was the excitement of last night's game experience - Mo La's battle with the magnetized puppet, which severely injured him, but did not kill him.
It would be better to die, as there is a high probability that the painful memories will be erased or blurred. Now, the pain of "Chiyu" has been brought to reality. I feel uncomfortable all over my body. The water vapor and breeze blowing from the lake can't erase the discomfort.
Compared to Yuan Wuwei, everyone else took a break from their busy schedule.
Long Qi didn't go to guard the card game, and Li Taisheng and Liu Chengzai didn't go up the mountain to study Cave No. 2. Probably because the extraordinary species living in the hotel had another meeting.
The theme of this meeting should still revolve around the exploration of Cave No. 1, Cave No. 2 and even the fog maze. But there is a high probability that there will be some deviation, pointing to the dream game of course.
The game experience and related tasks brought back by Mo La are very valuable for discussion. Don't look at them. They are idle in the huge hotel area, but they will be pulled over at any time to make a report.
The same goes for Yuan Wuwei.
Since Songkan arrived later, he was not eligible to stay in the hotel, but it saved him some trouble.
During their morning jog, Long Qi and Li Taisheng were still discussing dream travel.
Drama related content. When they came back last night, they were not idle either. They collected relevant information from multiple channels, from the Internet to intelligence organizations, and it was a good time to have another exchange now.
Li Taisheng's intelligence channels were wider, and he came to a more authoritative conclusion: "Many people...it can be basically considered that everyone has received the system prompt. The specific words and sentences have changed. After all, they did not directly trigger the person, but the meaning is similar."
"But it didn't happen before." Long Qi guessed, "Maybe it's a benefit for the first extraordinary species to settle in?"
"Not necessarily the first, but definitely the first to experience it seriously and blow up someone's magnetized puppet."
"So it is indeed a world mission."
The problem is that the current progress of this world quest is quite slow. Compared to the hundreds of billions to be completed, the number that has been completed has not exceeded 2,000 overnight.
Correspondingly, according to reliable statistics, the number of concurrent connections corresponding to Spirit Ocean exceeds 60 million, and the number of people who are troubled by corresponding "nightmares" every day has risen to 200 million. In less than a week, the cumulative number of people is approaching one billion.
Excluding those who repeatedly "logged in", the number of relevant people who were dragged in by someone was at least over 100 million. Basically, everyone who watched the live broadcast or noticed the relevant incident was caught.
Currently, most people are still struggling in the cutscenes, and those who can enter the game and experience it are mostly people with otherworld abilities.
How many capable people are there in this world? Counting the marginalized people who have not yet awakened, the current statistics are only six to seven hundred thousand.
But it's not that simple.
Li Taisheng said: "According to intelligence estimates, there are currently less than 2,000 awakened people and above who have experienced the game.
Not as many die-hard fans as Ruiwen. "
Long Qi pouted: "I have a lot of worries."
"On the other hand, the unawakened marginalized people are very motivated to enter and have actually become the main force in the dream game. Just from the consultation received from various branches of the association, as well as the statistics within our sect, there are already more than 40,000 people. This Or it’s because many people have only scratched the surface of their extraordinary powers, and have difficulty entering silence, and are trapped in cutscenes.”
"It's not surprising at all." Long Qi shook his arms and commented, "Many people look at the scenery from a distance, but they can't get in; they are only one step away from the goal, but they can't reach it. After years of torture, they have already gone crazy. They will not let go of any opportunity."
After a pause, Long Qi also talked about his findings: "Someone should be releasing the guide intentionally. The post about the experience of the Demon Eye Girl's demiplane has been forwarded to various platforms in just one night, with the number of forwards and the number of reads All are surges.
"This guide is quite useful. Once you understand the importance of meditation and have Ruiwen's demonstration materials, you will make rapid progress.
"There is also the Blood Ring Fortress in Xia City. I heard from people there that the first phase of internal testing has been declared successful, and large-scale public testing is being prepared, and applications have been opened. It can be expected that the number of applications will increase dramatically in recent days. It is said that , that is also a shortcut to quickly participate - Xia City is already making an official guide.
"After a set of combination punches, I think it is expected to exceed the 100,000 mark by next week."
Li Taisheng frowned: "Among 100,000 people, there are still only a few people who have the ability to deal with magnetized puppets. If we cannot effectively form a joint force, the growth rate of the number of completions will not be high in a short period of time."
That’s it for everyone else.
, Yuan Wuwei sneered.
It was nothing before, but now Long Qi and Li Taisheng both know that this guy's ideas are really extraordinary, and they all want to see what he has to say.
However, at this time, Yuan Wuwei reached his limit again. Like a dead fish, he collapsed on the wooden chair on the edge of the trail. He screamed and ran forward without saying anything. He was also preparing to call the electric sightseeing car in the park to take his place. .
Without Songkan, Long Qi and Li Taisheng really didn't know how to deal with Yuan Wuwei. After exchanging glances, Li Taisheng asked tentatively: "Major Yuan, how do you think this world mission will progress?"
"How far it goes, why can't I think of going out for a morning run with you two..."
Long Qi laughed: "You forgot, we are the ones to be consulted. When we went out for a run, you were afraid of being left alone, so you called us over alone, so you shamelessly followed us."
Yuan Wuwei was stunned for a moment, recalling that there was indeed such a period, but he was really not interested in talking about it at the moment: "We need to consult anyway, and I don't want to have to say it a second time, and I'll reply!"
Long Qi forced the conversation again: "Are you sure that your sarcasm...well, the macro theory, is it really good to talk about it during consultation?"
Yuan Wuwei looked at him sideways: "The one with the super configuration? Or the overall structure of the spiritual ocean? Or the relationship between time and space? That's a far-fetched macro. Extraordinary people are not fools. Even if a single person can't think of it, they will think of it during meetings and discussions. "
Although the words don't sound good, they still have the flavor of discussion.
Long Qi simply sat on the bench and continued to ask: "Then what will they pay attention to and what will they consult?"
Yuan Wuwei responded lazily: "If I were to discuss things like you do, I would
It’s also easier. What they are struggling with now is probably not the game itself, but the attitude towards playing the game: for example, should they help that person speed up the progress of the quest line and change the world; or should they procrastinate and continue to sit on the wall to avoid being involved in the vortex of collision. "
Long Qi asked knowingly: "Does it have to be so complicated?"
"There are no simple things in the world - even simple things can be made complicated, just like your twisted virtue."
"..."
Yuan Wuwei sneered again: "Of course, there are still some people who are committed to simplifying the world. For example, that person, did he create this situation to put pressure on these extraordinary beings and choose sides?
"I don't think so. That person is definitely not trying to reduce Tiger and Mo La's options, but is giving them a reason to participate smoothly.
"To put it bluntly, those people can't think about what happened in the dream. Is that a problem? Even if you work for that person one night and report to Teacher Li Wei the next day, you don't have to worry about it. "
Li Taisheng and Long Qi looked at each other and nodded: "This is an idea. However, the progress of the mission to return to this world..."
Yuan Wuwei waved his hand and almost lost interest in talking: "Come on, as long as you are obsessed with the progress of the task, you will never get out of this circle... The car is coming!"
At this time, an electric sightseeing car came over on the greenway. Yuan Wuwei thought his call was successful, but soon discovered that there were two guests on board.
Long Qi and Li Taisheng glanced at each other with awe, and quickly exchanged glances.
The guests on the electric sightseeing car were a man and a woman.
The man looks very handsome at first glance. He is dressed casually.
Wearing large trousers above the knee, revealing two slender calves, she looks like a tourist on vacation; the woman is beautiful and cold, and she wears a hooded white robe on a hot day, leaving nothing exposed except her face.
What they have in common is that their faces are all pale. Even on a summer morning when the sun is rising, there is not much blood.
Especially that man, if you take a closer look, he still has an unhealthy green complexion, and he looks like a consumption ghost.
But no one on Long Qi's side dared to treat him like this.
These are clearly two extraordinary species.
Star Witch, Constance Dalle, de facto senior brother and sister.
The Star Witch is the direct disciple of the Dead Witch, and Constance was once taught by the Dead Witch. They are all general officers of the General Association of Able Persons, and they all hold the title of deputy secretary-general.
Among them, Constance is the peak spiritual powerhouse in the extraordinary deck, only under the chief priest Lanier. He is known as the strongest barrier master in the world, and is also very good at time and space abilities.
Not to mention the background of the General Assembly, everyone now knows that the Dead Witch once participated in an assassination operation against Ronan, well, the one in Hacheng.
Basically, we have already taken sides.
Their arrival may hinder Ronan on related issues - whether it is fog maze exploration or dream games.
Of course, it is also possible to do deeper testing.
"Since you are concerned about the progress of the dream game, your ideas must also be analyzed based on the progress."
Yuan Wuwei suddenly spoke loudly, startling Long Qi and Li Taisheng.
Probably because of the key words in the words, the two extraordinary species also looked over.
Yuan Wuwei continued to shout, ah, talk: "But this kind of attention should not focus on how everyone advances the task, but on who
How to carry all this.
"One hundred billion magnetized puppets, do you really think that they are just smoke and clouds in a dream, born and destroyed? At this scale, it is impossible for that person to squeeze them one by one, right?
"If energy consumption is supplemented, there will definitely be production lines, and there should be a complete industrialization system of raw materials, energy, and sites. Of course, this is just an example. There should be a similar system.
"But I think he definitely can't have unlimited resources, not even Mentor Li Wei can do it. And Mentor Li Wei, that stingy man, has never been so generous.
"It is impossible for him to be a philanthropic person. Such a large-scale project will probably be associated with high costs. If this is the case, investment will be thrown in, and there will be cost pressure. How to operate it will become a science.
"If I were him, I would never issue tasks casually. Because tasks are goals, channels, marketing, and ways to recover capital. Where is the breakeven point? Can production and sales be balanced? Should we expand production and speed up the pace? These are all problems.
"Is it calm or urgent? Is it more than enough, or is it difficult? Whether it has an impact on his state can be seen from the task system... There is a lot of knowledge in it!"
"Not bad, the thinking is clear." The electric sightseeing car stopped and Star Witch praised him. He looked at Yuan Wuwei and showed a gentle and friendly smile, although his face was too pale and blue, which looked a bit sinister. "We look familiar. Where should I have seen it?”
Yuan Wuwei showed a reserved smile: "It's probably the Apocalypse Laboratory. We have met Mr. Star Witch and Ms. Daler. In addition, Ms. Daler
In 1994, Shi went to the Jupiter Orbital Advance Base for training, and I also participated in the reception. "
Constance glanced across Yuan Wuwei's face and nodded slightly: "That person with great time and space sensing ability, what is his name Wuwei..."
"Yuan Wuwei!" the young major responded loudly, his enthusiasm beyond words.
Long Qi and Li Taisheng almost covered their faces together.
