The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 33: The cunning Annan
When players open the "Forum", they see a LOGO that slowly pops up.
【Lengshui Port Meeting Hall】
After the loading is completed, the squiggle text gradually fades away, and a very clean forum layout is presented to the player.
There are only two posts, both posted by the forum super administrator "Annan", and they were pinned to the top at the same time:
"What you need to know about the Misty Continent"
"General Rules of the Frozen Water Port Council"
1. Post handling regulations:
1. Bans are divided into three days, one week, and one month. There is no permanent ban.
2. Players cannot actively use the theme lock/delete function. If you want to use it, you must @annan
……
First read the forum rules.
After reading it all, the players found that there was basically nothing that they needed to pay special attention to. Although this game looks very high-tech, the forum rules are not much different from other forums. They simply prohibit spamming, repeated postings, foul language, grave digging, advertising, and other comments that violate local laws and regulations.
The only thing that needs special attention is that there is no permanent ban in the forum... but the corresponding most serious punishment is changed to "dismissal".
The so-called dismissal means deleting the game "Misty Continent" and prohibiting logging in again.
In other words, in the future, players can warn newcomers like this: "If you say it again, your account will be gone."
Another thing is that for security reasons, it is not recommended that players publish communication groups and organize offline activities in the forum. Once discovered, they will be locked or deleted, but will not be banned.
So the players immediately clicked on another post impatiently.
Only in this post can they see Annan’s user profile picture.
It was a profile of Don Juan with his head lowered and concentrating on reading.
"...is it Don Juan Geraint?"
Lin Yiyi let out a sigh and tentatively tried to download the picture - but unfortunately she couldn't.
She clicked her tongue before continuing to look down.
One: Try to have a short and smooth name. When addressing each other and introducing names, they will not be translated into the world's language, but will only be addressed in transliteration.
Two: Please treat the entire world as a real world, and do not try to develop or spread any form of bugs.
Three:...
This post is very brief compared to the other one. It's mainly about what players can and cannot do in the game...but basically it doesn't have much nutrition.
For example, "This game uses the Genesis engine and can apply 99% of the physics rules", "There is an air wall in the internal beta version, please do not try to leave the scope of the North Sea Territory", "It will be open to the sky in a later version In-ground functions and new maps” and so on.
Three points are more important.
The first point is that players must be careful when naming, changing jobs, and adding points, because there are currently no name changes or point-washing props.
Although Lin Yiyi feels that it may be a little late to put this sentence here. After all, if players want to see this forum, they must first create a good character...which means adding good features and giving a good name.
Is this a warning to subsequent players?
Lin Yiyi also saw in the post that the forty of them were all first-test players.
Because this game adopts a fully dynamic task distribution mechanism, the group of players in the second test must be different from their initial tasks. Because by then, the plot must have moved forward for a while. And for all subsequent tasks, there is no guarantee that the task strategy will be effective.
Completing the mission itself will significantly change the personal plot or the world plot. Therefore, Annan specifically issued a warning - please pay attention to the timeliness of the strategy.
The second point is that the copy mechanism of this game will contain elements of distortion, distortion, and psychological horror. And too many deaths in the copy may cause irreparable consequences.
And if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, epilepsy, neurasthenia and other diseases...
...That's okay.
You can play without any worries.
By the way, Annan discovered another thing while tinkering with the players’ attributes:
He seems to be able to really clear away erosion for players.
He discovered the "erosion degree to zero" function in the management backend interface of the player system. Although there is no limited adjustment, the player's erosion level can be reset to zero with one click.
It is a pity that Annan cannot return his erosion level to zero at least for the time being...
But even if Annan can do this, it does not mean that he will do it.
If it were used as an existing function, players would be more careless when attacking the dungeon. Moreover, it will be regarded as a job without any reward, distracting Annan's attention, and if Annan does not handle it in time, it will also attract censure.
However, there wouldn't be any problem if it were the other way around.
Annan plans to put it in his yet-to-be-opened reputation store as an extremely expensive special service option that requires a large amount of reputation in exchange for a "purification ceremony."
Let players get used to it from the very beginning. Dungeons have always been a high-risk, high-reward, difficult mechanism. Then players will view it as very hardcore. In this way, if someone is dissatisfied, other players will fall back and attack him.
How to make players feel superior unconsciously is a profound knowledge.
After mastering this knowledge, you can please someone without leaving a trace...or kill someone with flattery.
In this way, if there is a player whose erosion is too high and something goes wrong. Annan can even provide him with a credit service - deducting future favorability points in advance and purifying him first.
In this way, the purified players will be very grateful to Annan and say Teacher Fan's voice: "Thank you."
Obviously this is the same thing, and the work Annan has to deal with is the same - who he will purify before, and who he will purify later. But he just took away things that everyone could get and sold them at a clear price. Instead, it became a "generous" act that would be appreciated by people...
The skill of manipulating people's hearts is so mysterious that it can be called a magic.
In this post, there is also the most important red content that all players have noticed:
"Please try your best to complete your role-playing, do things consistent with your status, and do not try to anger or attack any behavior of your own camp leader. Because each camp leader also has the right to 'dismissal' players (see Frozen Water Port General Chamber Rules), although they may not know they have this ability.
"After the death of all camp leaders, the game will be permanently closed."
The only current leader of the camp is Don Juan Geraint.
Frozen Water Port is also the only camp that players can currently choose.
This means that Don Juan Geraint is the biological father of the players. Players must do their best to ensure his survival...
In fact, the setting of camp leader is actually a way out that Annan left for himself.
Only Annan knew that there was no template for "camp leader" in the original system. This is a type of title specially set by him...
... Use it for your own vest.
The identity of Don Juan Geraint may not last long. Once his identity is exposed, he may have to leave the frozen water port. So how does he ensure control over the player?
That is to label the particularity of "Don Juan Geraint".
The players are not required to obey the orders of "Don Juan Geraint" alone, but to obey and protect these "camp leaders".
Even if Annan changes his vest one day, he can still control players. He only needs to give his new identity the title of "camp leader" and he can directly inherit the business income of "Don Juan Geraint".
In other words, players are responsible for playing the game.
Annan is responsible for playing these players.
This can probably be regarded as an asymmetric confrontation game...
In order to ensure silence, players have opened posts and chatted in the forum. The external performance was that they followed Annan and walked slowly towards the frozen water port.
Annan left only two or three militiamen to protect himself. ~IndoMTL.com~ He sent the remaining people back to look for someone to do the work.
They have to move the captured Black Fire outside the city first - just to the location of Annan's ship. Soak the black fire in water and cover it with some leaves. This will at least prevent it from exploding in the sun.
Then, find someone to put out the fire.
Although Annan roughly suppressed the fire, his magic power was also limited. This is a job that ordinary people can do, so there is no need to consume your mana to dangerous levels.
Anyway, the area is far away from the forest, and Annan has set up a fire isolation zone, so there is basically no need to worry about forest fires. But just in case, it's better to find some people to take a look and put out the fire completely.
It never hurts to be cautious.
——He doesn’t need to work the night shift anyway.
Similarly, Annan did not tell them that he could actually extinguish the flame. In this way, when the militiamen arrive and find that the fire has not spread, they will thank Annan for his pre-treatment, so that the situation will not be the worst...
After Annan was forced to work overtime just now, now he saw others running around in a panic and working overtime in the middle of the night, and he suddenly felt a strong sense of joy in his heart.
Add, you can add anything.
"I have to arrange a place for you."
Annan looked at the handsome guys and beauties following him, and suddenly felt very good, secretly applauding his "can only beautify upwards" setting.
Looking at the frozen water port, Annan happily asked Lin Yiyi who was closest to him:
"Do you have any special needs? Where do you want to live? Let me take note of it for you."
"...I would like to ask, Master Don Juan, do you live alone now?"
Lin Yiyi was silent for a while and asked quietly.
