Chapter 386: Shared City (First Update)

Views:

The Holy Spirit's guild system is the same as other game guild systems, and also has a guild level system.

The levels range from a simple one to ten. Each level increase in the guild level will increase the guild's attribute bonuses, guild warehouse, and guild benefits to a certain extent.

As for the number of guild members, it is the same at each level. Some people in the forum are asking why the dog planner doesn't launch something to increase the upper limit of the number of guild members

Jiang Qiao’s response is…it’s already being done.

At present, there are only seven level ten guilds in Holy Spirit, which are the main guilds established by the seven clubs in China. The next level nine guilds are the guilds like the Chen Meng Marriage Urging Committee, which are not organized and managed but are generated by the love of players.

There are many ways to improve the guild's level. In short, the people that Mr. Yin has invited today are the presidents of the other five level-10 guilds of Holy Spirit. They are all old acquaintances of Mr. Yin.

"Boss Lu! What do you want me to invest in this time?"

The president of the Dark Night, Cruel Moonlight, asked about President Yin directly in front of everyone.

"Investment? Why do you say that again... Have I ever tricked you into investing in something before?" Mr. Yin asked Cruel Moonlight in confusion.

"No, but when the Holy Spirit released accounts on a large scale last time, you suddenly started paying ordinary players, which reduced our recruitment of new players by at least 50%. This time it's even more."

The president of the Gray Eye Club... Gray Eye is very concerned about the large-scale recruitment of newbies by Leaping Atomic Energy, and even spends a lot of money to offer salaries to attract newbies.

"Damn it! If Old Mou hadn't told me, I would have forgotten about it! Now when new members join our guild, they ask if we will get paid. Shit! I'm just a handyman in the club, how can I have the right to pay them?" Canxin became a little irritable when he mentioned his recent experience of recruiting new members.

The ecosystem of Holy Spirit has undergone some changes due to the intervention of President Yin. For talented new players who have just entered Holy Spirit, Leaping Nuclear's willingness to spend a lot of money to cultivate new players is of great help to them.

But for other large guilds that want to recruit new members and absorb fresh blood, what Mr. Yin did will undoubtedly make... the act of recruiting new members extremely expensive.

Unless you are a true fan of that team, any newbie who has a little strength and wants to expand the guild will choose Leaping Nuclear.

"Because they are indeed worth the price. I have many things to talk about with you all this time, but the first thing I want to talk about is not the recruitment of new players, but this event."

Mr. Yin got a wooden box from somewhere and put it on the ground. He used the box as a footstool and was a head taller than all the players. There were quite a lot of players in the Leaping Nuclear Base. The worst thing was that the new president of Howling South Wind awakened a job called Fairy Knight because of a mission, which resulted in her height being only about 1.2 meters.

Therefore, the president of Nanfeng Xiaoxiao, Hu Zhongxian, can only sit on the neck of another female player to barely see Mr. Yin.

"Mr. Lu, are you referring to this NPC strategy event? This event should be considered fair competition among us..."

The Immortal in the Lake shouted to President Yin from afar that Nanfeng Howling might be the least noticeable among all the professional clubs in China. They could barely make it to the playoffs every time, but were eliminated every time when they ranked fifth or sixth in the playoffs, and they had never entered the World Championships even once.

It can be said that since the team was founded, it has proved with its strength what a mid-level team should be like!

This feature is also carried over to the game. South Wind Howling is obviously one of the largest guilds in the game, but they are rarely seen in various major events in Holy Spirit.

"Competition? There's no need to compete." Mr. Yin said his opinion directly without beating around the bush. "Everyone is participating in this event for the City Building Stone, but we, the Leaping Nucleus, don't intend to monopolize the City Building Stone."

"Boss Yin! The tone of your voice makes it sound like you have already won first place in this event... and there is only one city-building stone, right?" Canxin was a little confused as he listened.

But what he himself cannot deny is that... the final winner of this event is likely to be decided between Coke Mania and Leaping Nuclear, because of the power of capital.

The presidents of the other five major guilds all do odd jobs for the club. The guilds are also the logistics of the club, not the main body of the club.

Only Leaping Nucleus and Coke Frenzy have the capital support of Mr. Silver and Bubble Boss, and this NPC favorability battle really depends on who spends more money to win.

Although the five major guilds can compete in this regard, their disadvantages are huge.

"The city-building stones may not be shared, but the cities built can be shared. I don't think the Leaping Nucleus can take over the entire city-building system of the Holy Spirit, so I decided to invite you to participate in... the construction of the first main city of the Holy Spirit built by players."

Although Mr. Yin started out as a hotpot chef, the family behind him makes mobile phones...so Mr. Yin has hosted several mobile phone launches as CEO in the past, and at this moment, Mr. Yin seemed to have treated it as a launch conference.

A press conference called Shared City.

"Mr. Lu, let me give you a tip. Once the city-building system is opened, although the item of City-Building Stone will be difficult to obtain, it may not be the only item." Huibaitong's personality is similar to Mo Shigui's. Both of them are veterans of online games, and he pays more attention to game data.

"In the future, there will most likely be other activities to obtain city-building stones, so your proposal is probably... meaningless from the beginning." Gray-eyed pupil's words calmed down the president, Zanshin, who was somewhat tempted.

The city building system is so important, there can't be only one, right? They can't be the first guild to build a city, so being the second or third is not bad either.

"Of course there can't be only one, but how long do you think it will take for the next city-building stone activity to take place?" Mr. Yin asked, looking at the gray-white pupil.

"Based on the current activity update cycle of the Holy Spirit, I estimate it will be within fifteen days." said Gray Eyed.

"My answer is half a year or even longer." While speaking, Mr. Yin directly used the group chat to post a post on the Holy Spirit Forum. This post was the "Background Story of the City-Building Stone and Preliminary Analysis of the City-Building System" that the Starry Scribes Team had just released not long ago.

There weren't many people responding to this post on the forum. After Mr. Yin tagged everyone directly, they all clicked in to read it carefully.

The content of the post is what Fanxing said to Mr. Yin before...

"This is just the background setting of the game. From the perspective of game development and planning, the output of a city-building stone is only one every six months. It's too..." Gray Eyes muttered to himself.

"We, Jun Lin Tian Xia, have joined." Qi Junzi, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said, "Now that Sheng Ling Jun Lin Tian Xia has withdrawn from the club's funding, Boss Yin, don't expect us to provide any financial assistance."

"It would be good to contribute some manpower, but what about other guilds?" President Yin asked again while looking at the presidents of other guilds.

"Damn it! Why don't you come up with some activity to help you conquer NPCs? Okay! We at the Abyss Temple will join in too. We're good at fighting, but we can only watch this activity, so we might as well take advantage of it."

At this moment, Zanxin actually chose to submit to the Leaping Nuclear Guild, because the Abyss Temple was a martial guild and the team members' style was mainly based on fighting.

Therefore, Canxin still had some idea in his mind. It was a question whether they could get the rewards of this event among the top ten. It would be better for them to follow Leaping Nuclear and get some benefits.

"We trust your reputation in the industry, Mr. Lu, but what do we need to do after joining? How should the benefits be distributed after the city is built? Please explain this clearly."

Huibaitong behaved very calmly. Although the eight major guilds all had dealings with each other, except for Junlin Tianxia, the other guilds were essentially products of capital investment. If there were any huge interest decisions involved, Huibaitong, as the president, had no right to make any decisions.

"What we need to do after joining the group is very simple. I have told you before, that is to recruit as many gods from the City of Gods as possible to our base! Our first goal is to empty the entire City of Gods as much as possible."
