"Do you like this book?"
The short-cut, dark-skinned bookstore owner wearing a red and blue sweater poked his head out, revealing a pair of dazzling white teeth.
Su Mingan was ready to leave.
Unexpectedly, he turned aside and suddenly saw a familiar figure on the cover of the bookshelf in the bookstore nearby.
He came closer and took a closer look, and saw that it was himself.
The big characters on it are clearly [Complete Analysis of Player Information at the Top of the List].
The cover of the book, just like a fashion magazine, uses thick paint to draw one's appearance, which looks like a real photo. There are also a few lines of small colorful words next to it:
【Shock! The secrets of top players that you have to know! 】
[All about New World Theory—The Adventurers Guild welcomes you! 】
[Top-secret analysis by Yamada Machichi, about the "her" on Zhai Star...]
【Who is the person behind Iris? You will know after watching it! 】
【……】
After a rough look through it, he found that they were all specious news from world forums. He compiled the version that was most acceptable to people and printed it on paper to make a profit.
As soon as he turned the page, the shop owner, who was still chewing the garlic burrito, poked his head out. What the shop owner said was obviously in foreign language, but when translated, it smelled like Northeastern slag.
"Hey, I'm looking at Su Mingan. If you like him, I have many more..."
The shopkeeper retracted his head again, and then moved out a lot of books.
He glanced briefly at the pile of books before him.
[Compilation of lighthouse theories] [Official top secret! The first player's life experience and personality analysis] [The first player's photo album]...
He didn't read anything else and immediately opened the [Collection of Lighthouse Theory].
The author is not identified in the collection, and the four characters "Lighthouse Theory" are written on each crooked page. The content combines his original words with other analyses. He looked at it carefully for a while, and then he saw the words "fool" written all over the book.
"[In a large, disordered group, the leadership of a lighthouse is definitely needed, and all voices of resistance need to be eliminated, leaving only those who are suitable for chasing the light. Choose the useful ones, abandon the useless ones, and let everyone understand the leader's Authority. This is what a real, decisive and decisive No. 1 player needs to do...]" Su Mingan read a paragraph and closed the page with a "snap": "What a mess."
"Hey, what you said is wrong." The shop owner, who was chewing garlic and filling his mouth with soy sauce, smacked his lips and squinted his eyes, as if he were a teacher:
"This book was jointly written by the World Lighthouse Research Group. It is very authoritative, otherwise it would not have been sent to the bookstore. If you deny the authority, there will be problems."
"What kind of authority is this?" Su Mingan said.
"Authority is something that is considered from the perspective of those in power. We have to follow the trend. If we violate it, there will be no good results." The shop owner who was eating the green onion burrito had a good way and said one by one: "It should be the way it is. Well, like Edward who is always targeting the number one player, he should have been killed long ago, what is the use of keeping him. Su Mingan is too weak, always thinking about giving in, so he should kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, and use this Edward to establish his authority."
On the side, on the screen, Ming in the conference room is still speaking:
"In such a world... everyone can choose the direction of the world. Everyone is the master in the true sense. We have freedom and breeze, and we also have the right to choose. It is our unique task to withstand hardships, and The space that was originally divided into pieces has long been pulled by extreme voices, and will only move towards the extremes of their respective ideas..."
"That's a nice thing Su Mingan said." The shop owner took a bite of the cake and made a loud chewing sound: "I used to take points from others. Although it is understandable, it is too hypocritical to speak like this on this occasion..."
"Yes." Su Mingan nodded: "It's too hypocritical."
The shop owner's eyes sparkled: "You also think he is hypocritical, right? Although I know that he is really powerful, I also admired his grading theory before - you should distinguish the right people. But, the current number one player... He is too smooth, too bright and righteous, many people like him, but I don’t like him very much.”
"Yeah." Su Mingan said, "I don't like the number one player speaking in the conference room either."
The shopkeeper stretched out his hand, and through the dark fog of privacy, he shook his hand warmly and shook it vigorously.
"I didn't expect you to think the same as me... Although I do like people from Asia, Su Ming'an is too young and too young. Lu Shu from the Dragon Kingdom is more suitable for me, and his personality is also very suitable..."
The big man chewing green onions licked his lips when he said this.
Su Mingan felt that their communication was not on the same level.
"If you are not interested in Su Ming'an, I also have many books by well-known players, including painting books, analysis books, photo books..." the shop owner continued.
"……Photo Album?"
"Hey, those are the screenshots from the live broadcast room. Someone chose the right angle to take the screenshots, and they look like they were taken in a photo studio." The shop owner chirped: "Especially that girl Yu Guo... she's so beautiful, like Xi Guo Just like the goddess in mythology, it’s a pity that I can’t see anyone recently..."
He came forward and whispered: "If you are not interested in these, I still have some good things here... No matter what special interests you have or which players you are interested in, I have corresponding themes... "
Su Mingan decided to take the [Lighthouse Theory Collection] and pay the points and run away.
Because the value of points is so high, in the main god space, people can trade with smaller amounts of points. A thick book only costs 0.02 points.
Extremely low prices and abundant resources make people's lives here extremely comfortable.
Su Mingan bought this book with a critical attitude and no other intention.
He walked on the road and opened the book.
The title page is a standing lighthouse, with the blue sky in the background and the somewhat dark sea below. In the somewhat gloomy tones, the light from the top of the lighthouse shines brightly, illuminating the surrounding area.
He stretched out his fingers and touched the lighthouse pattern on the title page.
Snowflakes fell on the page, melted quickly, and turned into a sheet of water.
He shook off the water droplets on the page, turned to the second page, and saw a few lines of extremely bold words:
[Some people are always suitable for the dazzling spotlight, while for some people, a candle or a green light is enough for them. 】
[The environment is extremely harsh, but people’s hearts are always united. 】
[——Under the lighthouse, above the sea, he is the guide in the dark night. 】
[And the light chasers who watch the dawn will eventually see the light of the sky. 】
…
The human self-rescue meeting has come to an end.
All speakers' discussions were fully recorded and will be further organized.
This arrangement will take about one to two days.
Before the start of the Sixth World, the United Group will publish the compiled content on the World Forum.
This meeting and discussion, which was like a vegetable market, failed to come up with a unified result in the end. Instead, the audience enjoyed watching it and saw many top players who had not broadcast live before, or some unknown players. A player whose words are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Su Mingan had long understood that this meeting had no real meaning.
It seems that everyone is soliciting opinions and wants democracy and freedom, but in fact the final result will not be unified.
Because there is no law and no system here, it is impossible to force anyone to act in accordance with the contract they concluded.
No matter what conclusion is reached in the end, it is just a call and encouragement, and it cannot become an "obligation".
Because humans are isolated islands here.
This meeting is more about showing the views and positions of different people, so that the thoughts of the players at the top of the list are more fully exposed. And in this way, people started to discuss these issues enthusiastically.
——And thus established the authority of the United Regiment.
As an organization that integrates so many top-ranked players and is exposed to everyone's vision, it is quite eye-catching at this time.
Just like an official self-help organization that truly wants to lead mankind to find the future direction.
The issues it raises are also from the standpoint of human beings and are popular among people, regardless of whether they are valid or not.
News came from Ming's side. Su Ming'an shifted his vision and saw the people surrounding him.
After the meeting, there was a dinner and even a dance.
The beautiful girls in long skirts, the graceful women in flower hats, and the tall young men in suits instantly surrounded Ming, who had just stood up from the chair and was about to leave.
"Your speech today is very exciting, player number one." The woman with golden curly hair raised her wine glass.
"We appreciate your modified lighthouse concept very much and hope you can continue to implement it." The people next to him immediately agreed.
"Yes, Datong is the foundation of the world. We live in the same world and breathe the same air. We should have the idea of uniting our compatriots and forging ahead with each other."
"Everyone is his or her own luminary... Your ideas are beautiful and inspiring."
"I think after this meeting I will take my chances because of what you said."
"You are a well-deserved beacon. In such an environment, with such ideas and will, you will definitely win in the end..."
People echoed, turning around and trying to praise the lighthouse concept from all angles in order to gain his favor. Many people took the opportunity to send out invitations and wanted to chat alone.
Ming, who was surrounded by a crowd of luxuriously dressed people, seemed to be adapting well.
"Thank you for your speech." Ming said with a smile: "However, there is no way to say whether an idea is great or not. I just expressed my own opinion. After all, in such a world, everyone is a giant ship called hope. Fellow travelers on board.”
"—The first player." From the side, a sword-wielding man with an immortal air came over, held his hand, his white robe shook slightly, and said in a solemn tone:
"I, Xiaoyaozi, am grateful for your righteous ideas and sincerely invite you to visit the Guwu Family."
After he sent out the invitation, the others immediately spoke up as if suddenly awakening, as if they were afraid of being robbed of the opportunity.
"The number one player, the Human League Watchmen Group, has always been looking forward to your ideas and concepts, and hopes to have in-depth exchanges with you..."
"The Yuguo Storm Team can share all your worries with you."
"This is the Dragon Kingdom Yangtze River System, the number one player. We can solve all the troubles about your sub-career for you and provide you with all the information you need..."
On the screen, the number one player who is at the center of people's attention no matter where he is looks dazzling.
As far as the eye can see, there is a lighthouse.
Ming became what Su Ming'an once aspired to be.
But looking at Ming like this, Su Mingan felt strange.
He lowered his head, looked at the lighthouse theory collection, and read the clear line of big words on it:
[There is a contradiction between ordinary people’s primitive instincts and practical needs. 】
[And this requires a small number of wise people to lead the ignorant majority. 】
[The first player, Su Mingan, is one of the few capable and wise people. 】
[——Because of him, we, the people, are willing to become the inconspicuous "majority". 】
With a "pop" sound, he closed the page and suddenly heard a system sound:
[You have completed all promotion tasks! 】
"Ding dong!"
[You have been promoted to a player. 】
[Level 3 players have rights: probability of obtaining additional side tasks, additional experience bonus! Open the equipment refining system. 】
[Note: After level 3 players, you can enjoy the enhanced effect of four-dimensional attribute points, and the points required for four-dimensional attribute points will increase]
[You are the first player to be promoted. Do you want to broadcast the whole game? 】
[Received the honor: Congratulations, the one in power. 】
[Get 40 honor points. 】
…
"Broadcast."
When he was free to move around earlier, Su Ming'an asked Ming to replace his green-level shoes with blue-level ones. He also asked Lin Yin to find a gem engraver to engrave the gems on his equipment, which satisfied the two requirements for advancing to the third level. condition.
And just now, after he published the forum message copy edited by Noel, he quickly fulfilled the third condition, and the popularity soared to 100 million within a short time.
The copy edited by Noel was very simple, just "We are working together -", and then accompanied by the photo of them on the Ferris wheel. The photo was pitch black, with only a few spots of light falling on the two people's faces, like a scene being staged. ghost movie.
However, as soon as this post was posted, the popularity soared instantly. Su Mingan could probably guess people's reactions, which must be similar to seeing a ghost.
He did not hide the fact that the person speaking in the conference room was not him. Ming is Ming, he is him, and he will not let the two merge into one just because Ming and he look exactly the same.
Since everyone likes the bright and righteous number one player, let them like him as Ming.
Ming goes to do good deeds and reap the glory and flowers of being the number one player, and he does what he should do.
He will not change his original intention because of anyone's thoughts or views, but will slightly change his route when other people's obstacles really affect him.
His previous pretense pained him. And if Ming can satisfy everyone by doing this, then let Ming, who is more suitable, do it.
He lay on the bed and looked at the colorful building blocks in his hands.
Square, rectangle, triangle.
The meeting in the live broadcast room next to it is still going on, and the screen glows with a faint white light in the darkness.
He turned on the room light and looked at the small words on the building blocks. His eyes automatically converted into a series of Chinese characters:
【Sixth World·White Sand Paradise】
The words transformed slowly, becoming blood-red. As they changed, they looked like blood flowing in front of the eyes.
