"..."
Seeing the road so close to him, Su Mingan felt a little uncomfortable.
"Sorry, I'm a little excited."
Seeing this, Lu immediately let go of his hand.
Even when he made such an action, his tone was very gentle and he used very little force. Even the clothes on Su Mingan's shoulders were not wrinkled.
"...I feel ashamed to say that I have only recently become aware of your large-scale plan that has been going on for more than three months." Lu said, "If I hadn't seen that world-class birthday celebration video during the New Year, I would have really I didn’t realize...your influence has reached such a terrifying level."
Looking at Lu, who was a little excited, Su Mingan didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Those people are just a fan group." Su Mingan said: "As an adventure player, I don't have enough time to manage them."
"So, Su Ming'an." Lu Fan asked: "——Have you never thought about the situation after the end of the world game? As the first player, when everything ends, when humans no longer need you, you know where you should be Position? To be praised as a hero, to be worshiped, to be revered as a god...or to be ostracized, unwanted by interest groups, and deprived of influence?"
"..."
"Aren't you doing all this just for the sake of the situation after the game is over?" Lu's face showed some confusion: "You should be able to imagine that the world after returning to normal will not need us to be like this regardless of strength and influence. Regardless of the current tense situation, when everyone returns to their starting point and interest groups return to their respective positions... we who stand out and are not controlled are actually not needed by others. "
"Everyone wants a dead 'hero' more." Su Mingan said.
Listening to Su Mingan's words, Lu raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"As long as you can understand it." He said with a smile: "Only the dead warriors are the best warriors. If you are alive, to them... it will be an uncertain turmoil. Even if you do not rule heart, but they won’t believe it.”
"Do you view human beings too darkly?" Su Mingan said.
"Do you underestimate the evil nature of human nature?" Lu said: "Su Mingan, even if 99% of people are good people, we still have to guard against the one percent of evil people. If we wait until a disaster is imminent before taking measures, then It’s too late.”
Su Mingan finally understood.
Lu's situation is actually similar to his, or... the situation of all top players is actually similar.
However, as the number one player, he seems to be the most dangerous and threatening one. Because of his influence and theories, a large number of nearly crazy figures have emerged.
Like man-made gods, this creates a pattern of skewed beliefs and extreme behavior.
Lu wanted to build a community with consistent interests with him.
After all, there is never a rule about which organization adventure players must work for.
This is how I want to form an interest group on my own.
Lu's thoughts are indeed far-reaching. He has already considered the situation after the game is over and the status of prominent players like them.
At the end of the game, the stronger the player, the more rewards they can bring back. In this way, it is impossible for the world to return to its original order.
A homeless person who was originally picking up garbage under a bridge may suddenly have the power to compete with firearms. Death row inmates who were originally in prison were able to escape the fate of being shot. However, the rich and popular celebrities who were originally wealthy may end up at the bottom of the food chain.
The structure of the world...will undergo earth-shaking changes. No matter what, it can't be the same as it was before the game started.
"We need to take measures in advance." Lu said: "Su Mingan, I admire you very much. The network you have laid out is actually quite perfect. Next, we only need a certain sense of ceremony. For example... determine different levels and titles, Put each ceremony in place, and these quantified rules will become the skeleton of your group, supporting your already large-scale group... We need strength that can confront the pattern after the game is over."
"Wait a minute." Su Mingan said, "Do you want to... create a god?"
Determine the title, determine the ritual... isn't this just about creating a god that people can believe in?
Lu's words were too dangerous. Fortunately, he turned off the live broadcast.
"No." Su Mingan immediately refused: "This method will never work."
"Really, can't you accept it?" Lu's expression was not surprising. In fact, he was just testing Su Mingan's bottom line by saying this.
He was not sure of Su Ming'an's ambitions. After learning that the other party was not overly greedy for power, he felt more at ease.
"Then, we can use another method." Lu said.
"What do you mean...?" Su Mingan asked.
Lu looked around. Moka, the guide next to him, nodded and walked up the stairs to make sure there were no eavesdroppers around.
Lu Ze walked closer to Su Ming'an and spoke softly:
"Actually, what I really think is..."
…
Walking out of the large processing factory, Su Mingan looked a little solemn.
The cold wind rolled the blades in front of him, and his eyes had not yet focused.
Lu had already left through the [Hand of Salvation]. Before Lu left, Su Mingan listened to his thoughts and agreed to his request.
Lu said that he has contacted several players at the top of the list to create a "peak alliance."
The "Peak Alliance" is a group with consistent interests. With the adventure players at the peak of their strength as the core, and various sub-professional players as the outer ring. Let these sub-professional players who worship them provide them with stable and suitable equipment output. As for how to submit the equipment, we can discuss it further.
The upper limit for the number of adventure players is tentatively set at nine. The number of sub-professional players can be unlimited. After all, they are just additional personnel, not the core of interests.
...The core of everything is just the nine adventure players.
Compared with the United Group, these nine adventure players do not need to hand over their names to anyone, nor do they need to worry about their identities being pulled out by some organization to raise the banner - because each of them is the pillar of this alliance. , are the absolute core. Their rights are entirely in their own hands.
The obligation of these members is to help each other, not to stab each other, not to join other large organizations, and to maintain personal independence. The rights of members are basic "trust".
For these top players, the most basic trust is as precious as diamonds.
In addition to Lu, the people who have joined Gu's current alliance include Luna, Alger, and Beiwang. Plus Su Mingan, there are five people. These people are all top 100 powerful players, with strong strength, normal mentality, and simple backgrounds. Among them, Bei Wang is a top player who has completed all levels perfectly.
As for the remaining four seats, Lu is still considering them. Currently, he is still testing people like Yamada Machichi and Flora who do not have particularly strong backgrounds behind them. He said that if Su Mingan has someone he likes, he can let him know.
"call……"
The cold night wind blew over Su Mingan's face, making his face feel a little hot.
He exhaled, not yet recovering from Lu's words.
He really didn't expect that Lu would reveal such a big plan to him.
While adventure players and casual players were still at odds with each other, Lu had already tried to use the name of adventure players to actively attract casual players, trying to create a "parliamentary system" in the post-war pattern.
His ambitions are huge, and he seems to want to build these nine seats into a leading group for the world in the future.
Lu is not doing this just to fight for power. In fact, he wants to stabilize the world structure after the game. He has already predicted the situation after the game is over - it must be a world where the system is broken and there is no moral restraint. He does not want his original homeland to become a place of war between the weak and the strong. He wants to use the influence of this "parliament" to establish an organization such as the Superpower Control Bureau to maintain peace after the game is over.
He said that even if he did not establish such an interest group, there would be some careerists with darker intentions who want to fight for rights. Then, instead of handing over the initiative to others, it is better for them, the top players with more capital, to take the first step. At least, the mentality of these nine people is more inclined to stability and peace.
Su Mingan didn't comment too much on Lu's thoughts.
He could easily see the naivety of Lu's proposal, but Lu himself must have seen that there was no need for him to mention anything.
For example, since it is governed by people, corruption and mistakes will inevitably breed. Even if their original intentions remain unchanged now, someone will definitely change in the end, just like the Tulip Princess in Praia.
For example, even if they currently have the same interests, the battle lines will definitely change as time goes by, and the organizers are particularly good at dividing others. They are just a lone boat that goes astray, and there is no guarantee that they will not capsize in the waves of the world.
For example, even in a parliamentary system, even if there are only nine people, there will be contradictions and conflicts of ideas between each other. It is impossible to leave the pattern of the post-war world to nine people to judge. This is not a theocratic meeting.
For example, in fact, if he passes the level perfectly to the end, Su Mingan will not need this kind of council, and he personally has no idea of fighting for power.
But in fact, judging from the current situation, Lu's idea is feasible if it is for self-protection.
Even though various changes may occur later, for now, the union is good for them.
In the dark forest where no one has set fire, anyone may encounter dangerous beasts. It is human nature for Lu to take the first step to arm himself and use his current reputation to build an alliance to ensure a certain right to speak and prevent others from being burned after the game is over.
Moreover, compared to the United Group, which has countless interests and seems messy, this small parliamentary group of only nine people is simpler and clearer.
...Because they are all adventure players with simple backgrounds and no service to other large groups.
Lu was originally a person who repeatedly jumped between forces and had no real power. Alger is a rebellious little gangster, and his relationship with the United Group is very tense. Luna only had eyes for her own Yellow Rose Sword Guild, which was also a small adventure group guild with a simple structure. This is even more true for Bei Wang, whose background is as meager as Su Mingan's.
For the remaining four seats, some guys with peaceful minds and simple backgrounds were added, and a small group that could continue to improve and develop was formed.
Although it looks fragile and thin, and may capsize at any time, as long as the core few people do not fall, it is far stronger than imagined.
After all, no one knows what the world will look like after the game is over. At that time, influential commanders like them may temporarily give the chaotic people a unified goal to move forward.
Even if the alliance is disbanded and then connects with the original organizing group, it will be better than nothing. At least they have the capital to talk to other organizations on an equal footing, instead of being passively forced to cross the river and burn bridges.
This alliance is just a simple structure, an opportunity... that allows these nine players to soar into the sky and become the "leaders of the alliance" with the same spirit.
From then on, they were no longer a single peak player, but an entity in people's eyes.
Just like Su Mingan's lighthouse theory, this is an act that deepens people's impressions and improves the situation. They will publicize their names to attract others, proactively post strategy posts, and make suggestions for clearance to expand their influence. Just like the "Hero Project" of the United Regiment.
——It’s just that this time, the people who created the momentum became themselves.
Lu is a smart man, and the people who join are not stupid. They understand where their interests come from. They will not refuse this kind of behavior that promotes reputation and deepens impressions.
Travelers once looked at each other across boats, and there were isolated islands between people.
...and Lu is trying to turn them into partners.
As for why Lu is so eager to find Su Ming'an, it's because Lu hopes that Su Ming'an can serve as the leader of this alliance.
The few people they have chosen are all people with simple backgrounds. Even if their combined influence is far lower than that of Su Mingan, if they want to establish an alliance, the number one player is a necessary factor. If the first player is not among them, this alliance is actually not stable because they cannot attract so many sub-professional players to support them. Once Su Mingan chooses to join any other large organization, this alliance in the name of "independence" will collapse instantly. bad.
And now that Su Ming'an has joined, no one will be more suitable to lead the team except him.
Lu said that for now, Player One's layout is the best and most perfect. So far, he has had so much influence and so many people who follow him.
Perhaps, no one would know that what Su Mingan originally wanted to do was divert the attention of the organizers and hide the secret of perfect clearance.
…
[Only you can, only you can attract so many sub-professional players, only these talents can fill the outer ring of the alliance. 】
[You underestimate your influence too much, those people, they are not a simple fan group...]
[...Some of them can really give everything for you. 】
…
[The first player. 】
[——This is all the result of your "layout" so far. 】
[You are the most perfect, you are very... suitable for this world. 】
…
Lu said.
