As a member of the King’s Guild, Wang Shun’s personal skills are related to information collection, so he is mainly responsible for two tasks. One is to collect customs clearance data for various games, and the other is to find potential newcomers for the guild. To snare the opponent, Wang Shun originally wanted to report Bai Liu's data, but when he saw an announcement from the King's Guild that the [Thread Puppet Master] was recruiting [Puppet Players], Wang Shun hesitated again.
If Bai Liu is reported up now, Bai Liu's superior intelligence data and mental value data will most likely be noticed by the [Threading Puppet Master], and it is easy to be forced to be selected as the [Puppet Player].
For the average player, being selected as a "puppet player" seems to be a pretty good beauty, but for a newcomer like Bai Liu with development potential as high as S grade, it would be a pity to be a puppet.
Another point is that when Wang Shun was doing statistical analysis of the data, he found that the panel of the player who had been a puppeteer for this [puppet master] had never increased after being a puppet, or it was The rise is very slow.
On the other hand, the [Line Puppet Master], the intelligence point has risen from only 71 points to 93 points, and the other panel attributes are also soaring.
These data are only clear when Wang Shun, the King’s Guild, conducts internal data collection and analysis. He has guessed a long time ago that the personal skills of [Puppet Master] are not only [player manipulation], but also [potential absorption], but there are a lot of them now. Players know that the only skill of [Puppet Master] is [Manipulate Player].
Many players who were judged by Wang Shun as high potential eventually fell into the arms of the [Thread Puppet Master], became puppets, gradually became mediocre, and then were abandoned by the [Thread Puppet Master] or simply Die in the game, from a piece of jade that can emit luster after polishing it completely into a piece of mud that is sucked up and crushed.
While Wang Shun felt it was a pity, he had to accept this helpless reality.
The game is so weak and strong. After the bottom players are squeezed and used to use only the remaining value, they will be thrown away by the guild or the strong. Here, the least valuable thing is not a low-selling discounted product with one point, but human life.
Therefore, joining the guild is not necessarily the best choice for a very eye-catching player like Bai Liu. It is too easy to be restrained by the rules in the guild and then used by higher-level players. The Mu Sicheng of the year also saw this through, so bit He died and did not join the King's Guild.
It’s also a coincidence that the one who saw Mu Sicheng wanting Mu Sicheng to join the King’s Guild was also the [thread puppet master]. Mu Sicheng directly said that he would not be a puppet under anyone’s hands, and was dominated by anyone and refused. The invitation of the puppet master.
Later, Mu Sicheng suffered a lot in the hands of this puppet master, and later he became very powerful, and the ranking gradually climbed to about three hundred in the comprehensive standings before he was let go by [Threading Puppet Master].
However, Bai Liu, who is currently ranked more than 3,000, is a potential newcomer player that is not so easy to be let off by the [Threading Puppet Master].
Although Wang Shun did not submit Bai Liu's personal information to the King's Guild out of selfishness, Bai Liu's eye-catching performance and panel data still attracted the attention of [Threading Puppet Master].
[The Thread Puppet Master] has been stuck here for [intelligence value 93] for a long, long time. He needs a high-intelligence player as the [nourishment] for his development of intelligence.
Is there a better nourishment than new players like Bai Liu who only played a single-player game? there is none left.
Wang Shun kind of wanted to remind Bai Liu to pay attention to this [Threading Puppet Master], and the people of the [Threading Puppet Master] are also looking for Bai Liu, but Bai Liu is wearing a colorful chicken coop with black lipstick on his head, even if Bai Liu is standing now In front of Lu Yizhan, who had played with Bai Liu for more than ten years, Lu Yizhan might not recognize that the person in front of him was Bai Liu.
Unexpectedly, someone recognized him through the strange appearance of Bai Liu.
Mu Sicheng hugged his chest and looked at Bai Liu who was standing at the entrance of the game, "... Bai Liu, what did the real world do to you, in just a few days?"
"Can you recognize me?" Bai Liu was a little surprised.
He had swaggered through the hall with this face for several laps, and no one recognized him. Mu Sicheng had recognized him without a doubt when he saw him.
Mu Sicheng smiled a little smugly, and showed a little tiger tooth on one side: "Unexpectedly, Bai Liu, I can recognize you no matter how you pretend. I said I want you to steal everything from me last time. Come back, you can't escape! I can find you!"
"If you don't recognize people by appearance..." Bai Liu scanned the weird hip-hop monkey with the hat on Mu Sicheng's head. "You can recognize me by smell? Is your skill related to this monkey? Strengthen your five senses? "
Mu Sicheng’s smile grew stronger and stronger: "I guessed wrong~ My personal skill is not to strengthen the five senses, but I do recognize you by smell. You have a strong smell of copper, or money. ."
"That should smell good." Bai Liu was noncommittal. He looked at Mu Sicheng calmly, "What can you do with me?"
"A player is looking for another player—" Mu Sicheng looked up at the huge game entrance behind Bai Liu, his smile on his face was gloomy, and the red light in his eyes flickered. "—Of course it’s for playing the game, I don’t allow you. It’s so boring to be in a single player game, and the death rate is too low."
Bai Liu nodded in agreement: "After I discovered that the multiplayer game rewards are ten times the single player game rewards, I gave up this poor division."
"..." Mu Sicheng wanted to frighten Bai Liu and his words were all stuck. He looked at Bai Liu who was really serious about screening the multiplayer games he was going to enter, and asked dejectedly, "No, Bai Liu, go to the multiplayer games. It's easy to die, aren't you afraid?"
Behind Bailiu next to the entrance is a huge projection screen, on which covers and names of various games are randomly distributed.
Bai Liu pointed his chin with his arm to select the games he wanted to enter. He glanced at these games quickly, and did not give Mu Sicheng an extra look. He said indifferently: "In an objective sense, I have a fear of death, but this This kind of fear is not worth mentioning when compared with the fear that poverty brings me."
Mu Sicheng didn't understand Bai Liu's brain circuit at all, but the depression that Bai Liu gave him was extremely real: "No, don't you panic after entering this game? Are you too calm?"
Bai Liu looked at the game on the screen with one glance and ten lines, and talked with Mu Sicheng in a dual purpose, "The reason why I am calm and not afraid is that I came to this game with a mentality of coming to work."
"Come to work?" Mu Sicheng was completely speechless, "Are you coming to work in a horror game?"
"Yes, you can work once a week and you can have five days off. You can earn at least 200,000 yuan for a good job. There is no boss to deduct my bonus and salary, and there is no need to deal with some humans who cannot understand me in the whole process. They imaginary or barely communicate, I only need to do what I am good at-play horror games."
Bai Liu finally turned around and glanced at Mu Sicheng. He shrugged, "Except that the mortality rate is slightly higher, but I often stay up late when working in the real world. Sudden death is not always certain, so the mortality rate is also high. It can be ignored. In summary, this is an ideal job with high income for me. I can never find this kind of job in the real world, so it is difficult to have any fear of the game."
Mu Sicheng: "..."
Mu Sicheng felt like he was fucking persuaded by Bai Liu.
"Can I ask?" Bai Liu asked Mu Sicheng. He pointed to the various games on this huge wall. "Are there only these 100 types of horror games on this screen? In terms of the number of TVs and players, 100 types are a bit too few. I would like to ask if there are other games?"
Generally speaking, there are a lot of discussion about a certain player and a specific game in the forum, but there is no relevant discussion about the basic mechanism of this game. Bai Liu has been shopping for a while and found no science popularization posts related to the game. Now Mu Sicheng has gathered When I came here, Bai Liu happened to be an object of inquiry.
"There are far more types of horror games in this game, and we don't know how many there are." Mu Sicheng spreads out, "It's just that this wall will only project 100 games at a time, and then when these 100 games are all After a player logs in, the screen will refresh and a new game screen will appear, but sometimes there will be games that are repeated from the last time."
Bai Liu touched his chin: "In other words, this game is equivalent to a general game "question bank". We players are not clear about how many kinds of games there are in this question bank."
"Every time the system will randomly or non-randomly select 100 game test questions from this question bank and put them on this screen. Let us players, as test takers, choose one of the game questions to answer. Sometimes if we are lucky, we will encounter heavy questions. , Sometimes it may be all new questions, does that mean?"
"Yes." Mu Sicheng said.
"Well, if that's the case, it's no wonder there will be a guild in this game."
Bai Liu thoughtfully said, "The big guild in the early games should summarize the [answers] of some of the [re-questions] of the games that have appeared, that is, how to quickly and safely pass the customs, as an internal information sharing, through this to collect the strength Newcomer."
"And players with strength or potential can open up wasteland to play some new games to accumulate [answers], and they will get more resources from the guild, but there is a [live broadcast], and the [answer] of the game is public at a certain level. This kind of system cannot exist for a long time. The current guild should not rely on the game [answer] to develop, and it should have reached the stage of relying on the growth of advanced players in the guild."
"If I want to develop a guild, it should be possible for high-level players to bring low-level players to pass the level, but low-level players need to pay a certain amount of points to the high-level players, which is equivalent to remuneration, and a certain amount of points to the guild, which is equivalent to paying taxes."
"At the same time, the low-level players get the full power of the guild distribution, most of them will flow into the pockets of high-level players, so as to stabilize the high-level players to continue to stay in the guild." Bai Liuxun sighed, "but this will inevitably lead to high-level players. The exploitation of low-level players has curbed the development of low-level players. Many low-level players have no props and personal skills, so they can only survive in the guild as a subsidiary of high-level players."
"But there are a steady stream of newcomers joining the guild, so that the exploited low-level players can exploit the newcomers. The guild can only exist stably by forming an exploitation chain layer by layer. Tsk, the newcomers are equivalent to low-level leeks. No wonder there are so many low-level players in this game. To me this newcomer is so malicious."
Bai Liu has seen how to tear himself up on the forum, but he doesn't care much, and now he understands a little bit.
Mu Sicheng said: "..."
What Bai Liu said was all right, almost exactly the same as what Mu Sicheng had learned about the current situation of the guild.
Bai Liu looked at Mu Sicheng strangely: "Why do you look at me with such a strange look?"
"I was thinking..." Mu Sicheng was full of vicissitudes, "Is your intelligence really only 89?"
It's fucking outrageous! How did this product infer it!
He answered the question about the type of game. This guy has turned the system of the guild in the entire game over and over!
"Many newcomers have joined the guild in order to survive, because the high play in the guild will indeed protect them from passing customs. Although they need to pay one-third of the points for customs clearance, it is indeed safer and not easy to die, but you with high potential Newcomers should be cultivated directly. I just wanted to ask you why you didn't join the guild." Mu Sicheng tore a lollipop depressed, "Now I don't think I need to ask."
"Because it's stupid to join a guild," Bai Liu said bluntly. "In this life-threatening game, there won't be any charity organizations. It will be profitable to help you."
"Although in the short term, the guild will help you reduce the mortality rate, but it has been cowardly paying a lot of points to the guild. In this kind of game that requires personal expression to attract the audience, it is self-defeating, and the guild can no longer be edited from you. If you get any benefits, you will definitely abandon you, and most of your points and items will be turned in. If you don't have any capital to survive on your own, you will inevitably die."
Mu Sicheng looked at Bai Liu in amazement. He looked at Bai Liu with a little bit of interest: "What exactly do you do in the real world, and why are you so clear about the way this guild organization operates?"
Indeed, many low-level players who are useless are rarely brought by the guild in the late game.
"Most companies in the world operate in this way. They rely on drawing pie and so-called internal resources to attract employees, and then wait for employees to stay up late until productivity declines, and they will fire you to hire younger employees to squeeze. "
Bai Liu's face was expressionless, "I am just a low-level social animal who has been fired and exploited in the real world, so it is absolutely impossible for me to join the guild and be exploited after entering the game."
Mu Sicheng: "..."
This guy has a strong resentment when it comes to the social animal life in the real world...
"Then do you want to play any game?" Mu Sicheng glanced at the screen, "Is there any game you like on it? Or do you want to check it out again?"
"The login limit for single-player games is one hundred. All single-player games on this screen are fully logged in." Mu Sicheng pointed to a [FULL] symbol in the lower right corner of a game icon, which contained a lollipop. Vaguely introduced to Bai Liu, "No, if there is this mark [FULL] on the game icon, it means that the game has been fully logged in and no new players can be logged in."
"For multiplayer games, the login limit for each multiplayer game is different. I have played only 4 people and 50 people. It depends on the specific game. By the way, here is "Ghost Building" and "Doomsday City". "And this "Ghost Power" multiplayer games are games that have appeared before."
Mu Sicheng casually pointed to a few games, "Do you want to play these? I can help you find some customs clearance information for these games, but they are not free for you."
"No." Bai Liu refused without hesitation. "Even if I have the information, I will definitely react a lot slower than the guild players who have played many times in the old game. It is easy to be preempted. My advantage needs a new game to play."
"This is true." Mu Sicheng bit the lollipop one after another, "You are quite adventurous. Most newcomers still go to old games for stability."
"My purpose is to make money, not to survive." Bai Liu answered flatly, "I need to win, and I need to be the first to get enough points."
"You are really weird—" Mu Sicheng thought for a while, gave up the idea of understanding Bai Liu, wrinkled his nose very hard to understand, "You earn so many points, if you die in the game, you There is no place to spend either."
Bai Liu replied naturally: "I don't earn points for flowers, but for hoarding, and—" He suddenly drew a very strange smile, Bai Liu turned his head and looked at Mu Sicheng who was dumbfounded by his sudden smile. "Do you think I will die in the game?"
"I'm still a little confident. Playing horror games is what I do best. I may not die so easily." Bai Liu smiled, "I am better at designing levels in the game to let other players die, but myself I have never died in a game designed by others."
Mu Sicheng: "..."
What does this guy do in real life! Isn't it a criminal or something
"How come there is no player logged in in this game?" Bai Liu taps a game icon with a burning train image on the screen. The icon zooms in and falls into the game manager on Bai Liu's chest. Bai Liu clicks on the icon to view the game's specific information. , ""The Last Train of Burst"?"
The one hundred games on this screen will be full, but this game is still empty, a bit conspicuous and weird.
[Name of game copy: "The Last Train of Burst"]
[Level: Level 2 (Games with player mortality greater than 50% and less than 80% are Level 2 games)]
【Mode: Multiplayer mode (0/7)】
[Comprehensive description: This is an exciting multiplayer game. The last train burning in the fire, four broken glass shards and the charred corpse hanging on the ring make many players linger and stay here forever~]
Mu Sicheng frowned when he saw this icon: "You want to play this?"
"What's wrong with this game?" Bai Liu asked.
Mu Sicheng paused: "This is actually an old game that has appeared on the game screen several times, but there is currently no clearance information."
Bai Liu understood in an instant. It has appeared several times. The refresh system of the game wall here must be refreshed only when all games are full, so several batches of players should have been in it.
But there is no record of clearance... Bai Liu turned his head to look at Mu Sicheng: "All the players who entered before are dead?"
"It's weird, if there is no player to pass the level..." Bai Liu's eyes swept across the icon of "The Last Train of Burst", and his finger clicked twice on the line of [Death Rate], "This game has a mortality rate less than How is 80% greater than 50% determined? Judging from the data of the death of all players, the death rate should be 100%."
Mu Sicheng disapprovingly retorted Bai Liu: "This is just a way of grading games. Almost all games have this grading."
"If you say that the mortality rate of the game is actually measured, then any game with a mortality rate that is not 100% should have clearance players and clearance data, but I watched the VIP library video and asked a lot of qualifications. The very old god, indeed, did not find any players have cleared this "Blasting Last Train", I think there are indeed no players."
Bai Liu suddenly glanced at Mu Sicheng meaningfully: "If you didn't find it, it doesn't mean there was none."
"The death rate of "The Last Train of Burst" is between 80%-50%. If according to what you said, at least 20% of the players who have passed this "Last Train of Burst" really exist—" Mu Sicheng was very unconvinced. Retorted, "Such a large group of players who have been on the small TV and successfully cleared the game. They will always post forum posts, or the small TV or video has been seen by someone. It is impossible to have no traces at all, right?"
"How many players do you think there are in this game?" Bai Liu turned his head and looked directly at Mu Sicheng.
Mu Sicheng was questioned for a moment: "I don't know, but there should be a lot of them."
"We, a group of players with a large number of players, have any traces of existence in real life?"
Bai Liu asked unhurriedly, "Can all of us related to this game be seen by people in the real world? No matter what form we post related to this game, it can exist and form a trace, or can be Who remembers? For those players who have not entered the game, does [player] have any traces of existence? Of course not."
Mu Sicheng was completely stunned by Bai Liu's question.
Bai Liu didn't hesitate to ask the last question: "Okay, now back to the first question, our games [players] have no traces in the real world, so do you think we exist?"
"Of course we exist." Bai Liu replied quickly, "We've just been wiped out, so is it possible that at least 20% of the players who have cleared "The Last Train of Burst" are also like this? They? The traces of existence are erased by the game or the system?"
Mu Sicheng Daigu initiation: "Their clearance data and player data have been deleted!"
"It's very possible that they themselves have been "deleted"." Bai Liu looked at the icon of "The Last Train of Burst", "These players who have passed the level are likely to be dead, otherwise they will not come to the second game."
Mu Sicheng was called goosebumps by Bai Liu, but he was still a bit unhappy: "But everything you say is based on the actual measurement of [game mortality], but if the game [player mortality rate] 】If this thing is a virtual measurement..."
Mu Sicheng said here startled.
Bai Liu raised his eyes and glanced at Mu Sicheng: "I believe you should have discovered by now. The mortality rate is a data that cannot be measured virtually."
"Have you studied statistics?" Bai Liu asked Mu Sicheng, "There are two values in statistics that must be actually measured, one is the birth rate, and the other is the death rate."
While talking, he randomly clicked twice on the "Blasting Last Train" icon on his game panel. Amidst Mu Sicheng's horrified eyes and screams, Bai Liu slowly entered the game.
Mu Sicheng collapsed: "Why did you go in suddenly!!"
Bai Liu gradually faded before Mu Sicheng’s eyes. He thoughtfully answered Mu Sicheng’s words: “I’m very curious about what the system specifically deleted the player data of the "Blasting Last Train" that cleared the level. Experience tells me that the more I was killed by the superior. The deeper something is hidden, the more profitable..."
[The game "Blasting Last Train" has already gathered one player, and six players are needed to start]
