A week flies by in the blink of an eye.
This week, the players had a very fulfilling time.
Move bricks, move bricks hard!
Although there is no new subsidiary identity trial opened this time, there are still many things that players can do.
The Fortress of the Orderer was severely damaged, requiring players to continue to move bricks and rebuild.
At the beginning, many players were still a little resistant. After all, the Fortress of the Orderer was almost repaired, but it was forced to kill by the official plot, causing Gonggong to be seriously damaged.
Players will definitely have complaints if they redo it again.
But after moving bricks for a while, I realized that this job is actually not bad, right?
Because the brick-moving and reconstruction process was very fast this time, and the resources outside were more abundant, it was easier to move with twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, rebuilding the Fortress of the Orderer has special tasks, and you can get more construction points.
In addition, players also have many other ways to make money.
For example, hunting monsters in the wild!
This time, the players were pleasantly surprised to find that after severely damaging the two great monsters Gonggong and Kuafu, the area of the Fortress of the Orderer had further expanded, and a large area of unowned wasteland appeared in the wild.
Not only are there a large number of various minerals and resources distributed in these wastelands, but there are even more magic soldiers randomly refreshed than before.
There was even an army composed of thousands of cavalry.
The players immediately rejoiced and started playing!
On the one hand, this is because the Fortress of the Orderer has expanded its area after absorbing the remaining power of the demons, so it has more contact with the historical slices occupied by other demons in the long history. On the other hand, it is because they have become more and more Going deeper and deeper into the hinterland controlled by demons.
Although the core of the three dynasties of Sheng, Qi, and Liang have been breached, there are still many subsidiary historical slices that have not been recaptured, so monsters can often be encountered.
This should have been a more troublesome and dangerous matter. If Meng Yuan had only one orderer, he would have to pay attention to dealing with these magic soldiers while planning to attack the historical slice of the Chu Dynasty.
After all, the aboriginal phantoms are not that strong. They may be able to block scattered demon soldiers, but it will be difficult to block a large army of demon soldiers. And once the defense line is lost, the blow to the Fortress of the Orderer will be devastating.
But Meng Yuan doesn't need to care about this situation at all. Players will decide the number of people to go hunting based on the number of monsters, which can ensure that all monsters that stray in are properly eliminated as soon as possible.
Moreover, players are proactive and self-conscious, and basically nip problems in the bud. As long as you give them some bounty rewards, they will be happy.
Of course, there are also some players who continue to be busy with their own affairs, such as continuing to improve firearms in the fiefdom, or simply engaging in leisure activities such as fishing and hunting, or continuing to challenge in various simulated trials in order to obtain the best clearance route. …
In short, a week passed quickly and the new version was finally opened.
Zhao Haiping came to the new trial illusion portal.
Compared to the previous portal, this one is smaller and deeper, surrounded by a large amount of demonic energy.
It doesn't feel like a portal, but more like the entrance to a devil's cave.
This new version is called "But the flying generals in Longcheng are here". The latter sentence is almost everyone knows, which is "Don't teach Huma to cross the Yin Mountain".
Historically, there was controversy over who the Flying General of Dragon City was, but for Zhao Haiping, he was more inclined to think that it referred to Wei Huo, the famous general who made a surprise attack on Dragon City.
Maybe this was not the author's original intention, but the poem, after so many years of being sung repeatedly, has been given new meanings by later generations, so it naturally has different connotations.
In short, no matter what, this copy must be inseparable from General Wei Huo's expedition to Beidi.
After all, the exclusive term "Fenglang Juxu" belongs to him, and in the following dynasties, all the top generals who praised their own dynasty would inevitably compare themselves with General Wei Huo.
Zhao Haiping took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and then stepped in.
In fact, after being baptized by so many trials and illusions, he should have calmed down long ago.
After all, this is just a trial illusion, not the ultimate trial. It doesn't matter even if you die dozens of times, it should be relaxing and comfortable.
But for some reason, Zhao Haiping felt vaguely and deeply worried. He always felt that there was danger behind the portal this time.
He couldn't tell where this worry came from. Maybe it was because the portal looked smaller and darker, so it was more dangerous?
In short, Zhao Haiping still stepped in.
At the same time, countless players also stepped in.
When a new copy is opened, of course they all want to enter and experience it as soon as possible.
However, the moment he stepped into the portal, Zhao Haiping suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Because he felt that his body was being pulled away, turning into a stream of light, and being sucked into some unknown place!
This is obviously different from the previous trial illusions.
In previous trial illusions, regardless of whether you entered the scene directly or played an opening animation first, they were all seamlessly connected, or in other words, the illusion was constructed in an instant.
Under what circumstances would you have this feeling of being pulled away and involved?
During the Final Trial or the Orderer's Crusade!
According to players Zhao Haiping, the reason why this difference exists in the game is because of the different game modes.
The simulated trial can be regarded as a stand-alone mode, so there is no need to load it. You only need to build a small trial fantasy around the player.
The Ultimate Trial and the Orderer's Expedition are both large-scale online modes, so it is necessary to build a large-scale trial illusion, and the whole process of being extracted and involved in another world may be the loading process of a large-scale online copy.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with their guess, and they even guessed the principle correctly.
The simulation trial is an illusion created by Meng Yuan using the power of the Orderer. It highly restores the situation of historical slices and allows players to attack it repeatedly. It can indeed be regarded as a single-player mode.
The Ultimate Trial and the Orderer's Expedition are actually conducted in real historical slices, so all players need to be transferred there.
Now, all players who are preparing to enter the simulation trial have encountered the same problem.
They are sucked into real slices of history.
…
At the same time, Meng Yuan and Shenshang were also busy in the real Orderer space.
"Meng Yuan! Oh no, the slice of Chu Dynasty history controlled by demons is constantly absorbing the surrounding trial illusions! I can't stop it!"
Meng Yuan frowned slightly and looked at the core historical slice in the long history.
This is the first time I have encountered this situation.
The so-called trial illusion can actually be regarded as a high-imitation replica of a real historical slice. It cannot be exactly the same as a real historical slice, but it can be highly restored.
In this way, as long as the players pass the simulation trial, they will have mastered the real historical slices to a very high level. When they go to conquer it, even if there are some emergencies, they can deal with them accordingly.
The trial illusion can be seen as phantoms created by the power of the Orderer, suspended around the real historical slices.
Although they appear to be close, they do not overlap because they are in different time and space.
In addition, the previous monsters did not care about this, so there was no situation where the monsters were attacked in the simulated trial illusion.
But this time things are different.
Demon Lord Chi You seems to be consuming a lot of demonic energy, trying to absorb all the simulated trial illusions around the historical slice!
This move is actually very uneconomical. It will cause a huge loss to the power of Demon Lord Chi You. It can even be said that the gain outweighs the loss.
But it was obvious that after five and three defeats, especially after Fei Lian had the experience of being repeatedly pressed to the ground and rubbed by the Orderer, they also made some strategic changes.
Shang Shang's first reaction was to use up her strength to fight, but it was obvious that her strength was not as good as that of the demon king Chi You, and this tug-of-war across time and space would also cause her strength to be depleted rapidly.
Meng Yuan asked: "What would happen if the demon pulled all these simulated trial illusions?"
The consultant frowned: "That means players will directly enter the historical slice without preparation.
"Without the ultimate trial to conquer the slice core, our strength will be suppressed to a certain extent. Moreover, without prior drills, it means that the enemy's strength is completely unknown, and many unexpected things are likely to happen during the battle. Condition."
Meng Yuan thought for a while: "But this process will greatly consume the demon's power, right?"
The consultant nodded: "Yes, these simulated trial environments are actually in different time and space. If the demon wants to forcefully pull them over, the losses will be huge.
"But if I want to stop the demon, it will also consume a lot of money."
Meng Yuan immediately made a decision: "Then don't worry, let Chi You pull all these trial illusions through!
"We don't need to tug of war with it. It's not cost-effective."
The consultant hesitated: "But, in that case, the players will have to face the demon directly."
Meng Yuan nodded slightly: "Yes. But don't worry, you can always trust the players.
"The power you save is better used to summon those powerful heroic spirits from the past to fight the monsters head-on!"
The consultant hesitated for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, then I'll do as you say! But, will the players panic when encountering such an emergency?"
Meng Yuan chuckled: "It doesn't matter. Such a small problem can be solved with an announcement."
…
In the gray sky, a meteor streaked across.
Immediately, the meteor fell outside the desolate wall and turned into an unimpeded person.
Zhao Haiping looked at everything in front of him in confusion.
This seemed a little different from the simulation trials he had experienced before.
There were basically only two situations in the previous simulation trials. Either the identity card and the talent skill card appeared directly on the ground, and then you started trying to clear the level after selecting them; or you played a plot CG, and you couldn't do anything during the period, waiting for the CG. After the broadcast is over, start challenging the levels again.
But this time, after he landed, he found that the world around him did not enter a static state, no identity and talent skill cards appeared, and no plot CG was played.
He is completely free to move around, just as he was at the beginning of the Orderer Crusade.
Immediately afterwards, dense meteors began to flash across the sky, and more and more players fell from the sky!
"What's happening here?"
Zhao Haiping was a little surprised. Apparently the current situation had never happened before.
At this moment, he saw an announcement message appear in his field of vision.
[Demon Lord Chi You has led the main army of demons to intercept and start a decisive battle with the Ordered Ones in advance! All players are asked to be prepared, adapt to changes, and win this war! 】
The players who landed looked at each other, a little confused.
So... rash?
Really come!
The announcement did say that there might be a decisive battle in advance, but most players never thought that it would come to this point in advance!
They all felt that according to the official idea of designing the game, the Chu Dynasty, as a major event, would definitely invest a lot of resources in research and development, and the simulation trial, the final trial and the final expedition of the Orderers basically all used the same Made with a set of resources.
In this case, the fewer times resources are reused, wouldn’t the official lose more?
Therefore, even if it is written in the announcement that the decisive battle may come at any time, most players just think that the official will honestly let everyone experience the simulation trial. As for the final trial and the Orderer expedition, it may be earlier. But probably not too far in advance.
But I never expected that the official game of "Dark Sand" really didn't follow the routine. The simulation trial had just begun, and it directly advanced to the stage of the Orderer's expedition!
But everyone doesn’t even know the specifics of this historical slice!
There was some momentary panic among the crowd.
"What's the situation? Are you going to fight directly without simulating it? This is too hasty!"
"It's not reckless, it's the demon who took the initiative to attack. There's nothing we can do."
"What kind of demon takes the initiative to attack? This is a game. It must have been arranged by the producer."
"Will the difficulty be lowered this time?"
"Do you think it will be lowered in terms of the urine quality of official non-human beings?"
"Won't."
"What should we do?"
The players were all in a state of confusion. After all, the vast majority of players had never actually experienced the ultimate trial, and the Orderer Expedition only started the challenge after they had simulated the trial challenge for several days and felt confident about it.
Now everyone thinks it is a simulated trial, but it turns out to be an expedition of the Orderers, or a decisive battle... many people find it difficult to accept it for a while.
Chu Ge hurriedly said: "Don't panic, everyone, let's first determine the current situation and formulate countermeasures! This is a game, and since the producer threw us here, it must be because theoretically we can completely pass the level!"
Sure enough, with the help of these elite players, the players quickly regained their composure.
Indeed, this is a game! Since the producers threw us here, there must be a way to pass the level.
Just like before, it seemed difficult to deal with three big demons working together in a disadvantaged situation, but in the end, we found a solution smoothly!
If you think about it, in order to keep players fresh, the official did not hesitate to waste resources. Resources that can be reused three times are only used once... He really made me cry to death!
Players turned to observe the specifics of this historical slice.
