The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 34: Don’t stop
"...?"
Annan blinked, not knowing how to reply.
Are all people in your world so straightforward?
Seeing Annan looking at her blankly, and looking into those clear to almost transparent ice blue eyes, Lin Yiyi's heart skipped a beat.
She tried her best to suppress the urge in her heart and said calmly: "I just thought, Master, you might need some personal guards. It just so happens that I am better at taking care of people..."
This is a lie.
In her twenty-one years of life, Lin Yiyi has never had the experience of taking care of others. The largest animal that survived her care was a rabbit.
Annan, who had never chatted with women until now, was also a little moved when he heard this.
Although for him at this age, unnecessary things are temporarily out of the question... but it is always good to have someone to take care of his daily life.
He can indeed recruit one or two players who are pleasing to the eye and let them take care of his daily life. After all, Annan, as a golden template NPC, has a lot of experience quota every day. At least the growth of his maid group will not be slower than that of the elite land reclamation group, and it can even be faster than them.
If Annan wanted to, he could quickly create a level 10 dual-professional player within a day.
But that doesn't make sense.
And after Annan thought for a moment, he still felt that this was inappropriate.
It's not that the idea of hiring players to be your maids is inappropriate... but that it's inappropriate to let them get such benefits without paying anything.
Yes, he didn't say the opposite.
What you have to pay for is which one is the maid.
Annan has confirmed his appearance and has a full understanding of his current noble status. At this time, he is undoubtedly in the absolute leading position...
So, he must be reserved.
In order to create a character who is "cold on the outside but hot on the inside, kind on the inside, and who must become strong because of pain and frustration", Annan had to reluctantly refuse——
And based on its own value, this job can still be sold for a good price.
Annan was thinking calmly in his heart.
He roughly figured out his task quota to see what price he could sell himself for at most, so as not to anger these players and make their "sense of gain" significantly higher than their "sense of payment."
As a planner, he understands the balance between giving and receiving very well. This is also a game with mature and reliable planning, and there is a clear gap between it and other games:
If this problem cannot be solved, either too few benefits will be distributed, causing a considerable number of players to suffer significantly more frustration than they can bear, and then abandon the game; or too many benefits will be distributed, and the player's ability will be reduced. The horizon grows too fast, which leads to a decrease in the amount of happiness obtained when recharging, thereby reducing desire.
Yes, the technology for distributing benefits was originally used to defraud people.
And this game obviously does not provide a recharge channel...
Since there are no coupons and no time charges - Annan only needs to think in the direction of "how to improve playability and durability". For him, this has greatly reduced his workload.
The first thing is to make a hard currency.
Although there are no coupons in this game. But this does not mean that Annan cannot create a coupon.
Yes, it is the "favorability" he sends to players.
As long as this favorability can buy just-needed and unique items, as well as a large number of universal and cost-effective items, then favorability will become a "token" that players get through tasks. Voucher". And because favorability cannot be traded, this token is even "bound".
Now that we have the coupons, Annan can start work.
In fact, all of Annan's plans for players are all centered around this "token".
The first thing is to make a concept that your own favorability is very useful. As long as it's something you own, you can buy anything.
Even Annan himself can buy it.
Yes, Annan is even thinking about how much money he can sell and how much money he can extract from these players if he treats himself as a commodity...
Well, you have to reach at least a thousand points of favorability at the trust stage in exchange for such a job opportunity... Just in case, you need to limit it to women.
If you want to be my maid, how can you not pay me?
——Since I am so cute, of course you should give me money.
Annan was confident and very calm inside.
"I now live with Senior Salvatore."
Seeing Jiu'er on the side also pushing towards him with a curious look on his face, Annan had no choice but to make a cold voice and ask the horses to move slower. He lowered his head and explained to them in a low voice: "This is inconvenient..."
"Senior?"
Jiuer made a soft and curious voice: "Where is the senior? Twenty-four years old?"
"No, he should be over thirty."
Annan pretended not to hear the gist of the other person's words, and calmly explained: "He was the mayor of Frozen Water Port before, and a more powerful wizard than me."
"In other words, are those people planning to attack the Frozen Water Port in front of Mr. Salvatore?"
Lin Yiyi turned to ask.
She very cleverly changed the previous topic, just like when she was about to fail in testing the other person's feelings, she casually raised a topic to attract the other person's attention. It is a common skill for girls.
But she chose to change the subject at this time, not because she wanted to take the issue back.
She just noticed that Jiu'er, who was following behind, suddenly came over with a curious expression.
Lin Yiyi suddenly felt alarmed and asked Annan to take this problem over quickly.
Although I am only twenty-one years old this year... to the little lord who is only twelve or thirteen years old, I am still a "big sister" who is half a generation older.
Whether it is age or height, there is definitely a gap.
On the contrary, Jiu'er, who is too petite and even half a head shorter than "Don Juan Geraint", is more like a peer and is more likely to have more common topics with him.
Moreover, Jiuer is not a real "peer of the same age".
Jiu'er's real age is not only about to reach adulthood, but she is also an anchor. Compared with other girls of this age, she is better at talking, chatting, attracting care from others and understanding people's hearts.
Among the forty players in this first test, although there are not particularly few women, there are actually not many who are competitive.
Lin Yiyi is very confident.
Because she believed that the other female players who came together must be here for the mission of the lord.
Only she is different——
Because she came here for the face! She just wants to rub her face!
She can speak out her desires with confidence - this is enlightenment.
Suddenly, Lin Yiyi had an idea and a bold idea in her mind:
Speaking of which, is this game for all ages?
Anan was shocked when she stared at her with her unabashed eyes.
Damn it, are the players in this world so scary...
He coughed lightly and replied calmly, pretending not to notice: "However, because Black Fire was discovered before. So Senior Salvatore is currently doing research in a soundproof basement...
"He happens to be away during these few hours."
"That's such a coincidence."
Lin Yiyi nodded seriously and agreed.
Actually, she didn’t listen much at all, all she could think about was those ice-blue eyes like a Ragdoll cat...
Annan could only cough lightly again, looked forward and replied calmly: "Yes, so... this is definitely not revenge, but deliberate murder. They have already laid a conspiracy just to kill me.
"I don't know how to offend them. But since they want to come, I will continue."
Annan made a cold voice, with an aggrieved expression of being persecuted, but at the same time he looked firm and his words were full of confidence: "I will never give in here. No matter how great the danger is, it can't stop me—— ”
Although there was a lot of drama~IndoMTL.com~, Annan actually never took this enemy to heart at all.
After all, during this assassination operation that completely broke the rules of the game, Annan did not see a single extraordinary person throughout the entire process.
This has undoubtedly shown Annan his background.
If there weren't players watching, he wouldn't have been able to talk to those two people before. He just went up and slashed the two invisible ones to death with two swords. But after all, when the players are watching, he needs to "reveal some information about the plot to them from the dialogue", so it is a bit troublesome.
But Annan was still very grateful to the old Viscount.
Thanks to his blind operations, Annan successfully pretended to be cool in front of the players and established a positive image of himself as an innocent being persecuted. No matter what he does next, he will be understood by the players.
In principle, it is the same as Annan showing Salvatore that he was attacked. If you first put yourself on the side of the persecuted, you will gain people's sympathy; if you also have great potential, identity, ability, and most importantly, good looks, you will immediately win over a group of neutrals. the masses.
Now that Annan has returned, he is ready to enter the dungeon.
He is very much looking forward to whether this old and confused old man from Roseburg will continue to do some mysterious operations... It is best to take advantage of his absence to completely anger the players and the citizens of Frozen Water Port.
In this way, his "revenge" with the players is an act of justice. He would even build up his prestige and the goodwill of the residents of Frozen Water Port, completely twisting these forces into one rope.
So, don't stop, old man!
Please! Please continue to commit suicide!
I am easy to kill, come and send me another wave——
I will definitely not fight back this time!
