The official website of "Apocalypse OL".
A post from the planning sentinel appeared on the homepage, attracting the attention of a large number of pre-ordered players!
It’s not like before, when only a few internal beta test spots were released every other week. Now about 100 internal beta test spots are released every day. Although compared to the more than 30 million reservations... it’s a drop in the bucket.
But players don't look at proportions, they only look at the number '100'. With so many people entering every day, it's very likely that I'll be chosen!
Then this makes the official website very popular!
Every day, a large number of players who have made reservations submit reservations over and over again to maintain their activity, for fear of being judged as inactive users by the planners.
Some people even choose auspicious times every day to make appointments in an attempt to increase their success rate.
But apparently... it didn't work.
The players selected every day must be seeded players who have been screened by Zero, and are people with certain abilities, a stable mentality and good qualities.
Some people who are sarcastic, scold the planners, and are rhythm haters on the forum all day long are not included in this initial screening list.
When Cheng Shaofeng has nothing to do every day, he goes through it roughly and selects the players who enter this world that day.
But today is different!
Cheng Shaofeng will bring in 2,000 players at one time!
The players who were browsing the forum were suddenly attracted by the announcement released by the planner!
"Notice on Issuing 2,000 Test Accounts"
“In order to advance the game progress and avoid major deviations in the plot, we hereby sincerely invite 2,000 test players to enter the game to experience the test account.”
“The initial character of the test account is fixed as ‘Ammunition Depot Soldier’, and the main task is to help the base produce ammunition.”
"The test accounts issued this time only retain the Inquisitor profession, and cannot learn other skills before the bullet enchantment skills are fully upgraded. They are under the unified management of the base lord and must complete the daily tasks before they can move freely."
“After completing the mission (approximately 30 days), you can unlock and become a normal player, retaining all the benefits of the character. If necessary, the player can also apply for a new level 1 character.”
"This test account is voluntary, which is different from the official reservation. Please read the rules carefully and choose whether to apply for a test account."
As soon as this announcement came out, the players were shocked!
The comments were immediately polarized!
Dong Nan Qing: "No, I can only change my job to Judge? And I have to be an 'Ammunition Depot Soldier'? This is not playing games, but serving in the military, right? Is the gaming company living too comfortably? Has it become inflated? How dare they issue such an infuriating announcement? Let's boycott this unscrupulous gaming company! If you don't buy it and I don't buy it, this game will be a failure tomorrow!"
Please master punish Fugui: "Uh... Is it possible that this game is free to play? And the helmet is given away for free."
Wang Xiaoqiong: "No, if you don't want this kind of test account, don't apply for it. No one is forcing you to play with a test account. Can't you just keep waiting for the one in hundreds of thousands chance every day? Anyway, I can't wait any longer! I have to have fun in the game as a test account. Anyway, it will be unlocked as a normal account after 30 days. From a probability perspective... this is much more reliable than waiting for the one in hundreds of thousands chance every day."
Werewolf President: "To be honest, the planners and testers are just trying to get free labor from us. What's the difference between this and being a shill in a web game and fighting with the rich? I personally find this kind of behavior disgusting... Damn, stupid web game routines, don't try to cheat me!
Xiao Hei Ben: "What the wolf said is right! How can the game companies get something for free? Do you have any backbone? Let's boycott unscrupulous game companies, starting with you!"
Jiyuan: "Don't talk about this useless thing. As long as you let me play, I am willing to lock Niuzi for the planner!"
Little Scissors: "Can you find mine?"
Delicious Puff: "Dead male ketone is so scary! When I think about having to make ammunition with them for 30 days after entering, I feel a chill down my spine..."
Werewolf CEO: "No, what are you afraid of as a woman? Aren't all male Tongs your good sisters?"
Delicious Puff: "I am a cross-dresser. I am actually a 200-pound fat otaku. I heard that Nantong likes slightly fat girls like me..."
Jiyuan: “… …”
Small Scissors: "..."
Werewolf President: "..."
The words "delicious puffs" silenced both the perverted and non-perverted people.
The debate below is still going on, but it does not prevent the number of players making reservations from soaring rapidly!
Especially those players who later learned about this game and want to realize their dream of making money through this game should seize this opportunity.
Since the game recording function was turned on, the popularity of "Apocalypse OL" has skyrocketed!
Many people have smelled the scent of business!
One of the professions pays special attention to this game—game anchor!
After the game "Apocalypse Online" came out, a unified understanding was formed in the gaming circle: there are only two kinds of games in the world... one is called "Apocalypse Online", and the other is called traditional games.
The recording video of "Apocalypse OL" has become a hit on major websites at home and abroad!
The video bloggers among the beta testers made the first fortune, represented by players 'Mo Ran Jian Xiao' and 'Nai Se Bai Xue Zi', each of whose works received at least 500,000+ likes.
Sometimes, if there is no theme, they can just post a video of their daily gaming life, which can also become popular.
The traffic is too huge!
It has already affected the video ecology of major websites.
So, a bunch of bloggers are eager to join this game.
Cheng Shaofeng has no shortage of the 'test players' he needs!
It took Cheng Shaofeng less than an hour to take down the announcement because... he had already selected 2,000 players.
Each of these new clones of new players only requires: 50 crystal energy, 2 electronic components and some biological raw materials.
Among Cheng Shaofeng’s current income, there are so many electronic components and biological raw materials that there is no need to calculate the numbers. Even if they are used up, he can purchase large quantities of materials from various cities.
All he cares about right now is Crystal Energy.
This group of players will consume 100,000 of his crystal energy.
"But these players... will be my most profitable players, earning the million-yuan crystal orders from the soldiers!"
2 hours later.
The clone production warehouse in the battlefield sub-base has been spitting out new players one after another.
Each of them naturally has a yellow eye-catching title on his head: Ammunition Depot Soldier
Wang Xiaoqiong was the first player to support Cheng Shaofeng's plan, so Cheng Shaofeng directly gave him a place.
He stepped out and took a breath of air that was slightly different from Earth's.
"Hiss~~~ It feels so good!"
"I finally got in!"
He didn't linger for long, nor did he do some strange things like other new players to test whether the game's various systems were functioning properly.
After getting familiar with the clone, he said to the screen on the communication base station: "When can I start my mission?"
Since it says ammunition depot soldier, you have to do the ammunition mission.
But he has no levels and no skill points now, so he needs to gain some experience first.
At this moment, his smart watch sent an exclusive reminder.
The Ammo Depot Soldier Mission Guide
1. Follow higher-level players to the battlefield to gain experience and level up;
2. Choose an enchanted ammunition and upgrade the skill to the maximum level;
3. Produce 1,000 rounds of ammunition every day and hand them over to the warehouse;
4. You can do whatever you want at other times.
If you fail to complete your daily tasks for more than 2 days, your account will be automatically blocked.
"Oh... I see. According to the posts of veteran players on the forum, it takes about 10 to 20 seconds to make a full-level explosive bullet. My level is low, so it will take longer. If we calculate it based on 20 seconds, 1,000 bullets will only take more than 5 hours of full-time work. There is actually a lot of time to play every day, more than I thought..."
At this time, many "test players" have come out. They look at their task guides and almost understand what they have to do.
Werewolf CEO: "Hey~ Not bad! I thought it was a 996 work system, is this it? I make 2,000 bullets a day, is there any extra reward?"
Delicious Puff: "Stop it, brother, I'm scared..."
Werewolf CEO: "Fuck! How did a 200-pound fat otaku come in? Damn! Stay away from me!"
Suddenly, the new players were in chaos.
At this moment, the old players in the battlefield base also received tasks from Cheng Shaofeng.
Mission: Improve the strength of soldiers in the ammunition depot
As long as you want to fight, there will be fights on the northern battlefield at any time!
Zombies are creatures that give a lot of experience and are high in level. New players can just follow old players and eat their fill.
Cheng Shaofeng has calculated it.
The lowest level of fire bombs inherited by the Inquisitor: Explosive Ammunition, only 5 specialization points are needed to learn it, and the maximum level is 10.
That means you only need 15 skill points to max it out!
New players only need to go from level 1 to level 6!
The only thing is that the quality of bullets made by players of this level is not that good.
Therefore, in order to maximize the power of the bullets, he asked Zero to set restrictions for this batch of new clones: all skill points gained from upgrading will be automatically added to the intelligence attribute.
Because whether it is a fire bomb, ice bomb or electric bomb, the majority of the output is energy damage.
The higher the intelligence, the higher the power, and then you can sell it to the soldiers for a good price.
He divided these players into three groups, one group making fire bombs, one group making ice bombs, and one group making electric bombs.
The division of labor is clear and the use of skill points is extremely efficient!
This group of players can quickly complete the soldiers' orders.
Moreover... Cheng Shaofeng has another consideration. After making 1,000 bullets every day, players can move freely. Then they can kill monsters and level up by themselves... They can also improve their basic attributes and make the bullets more powerful.
At the same time, Cheng Shaofeng only enabled the three Inquisitor specialization skills for them to prevent players from misusing skill points.
Finally, a universal skill, fire spell, is released to players.
Fire can enhance your thinking
Passive Skills
10/10
Intelligence +12%
Energy +20%
Fire damage +50%
Universal skills, all professions can learn
Required player level: 10
This passive skill allows players to use the extra skill points they have earned to learn it, and at full level it can improve a lot of intelligence and energy attributes, allowing them to make faster, more and stronger items.
"Oh, right! There's also energy! These players don't have any equipment, so their energy recovery speed is definitely not fast enough, and their working time will be greatly extended... I have to equip them with equipment and inlays that can restore energy."
A lot of these items dropped when I was hunting for Void Spirits around Huo Town before, and they were piled up in the warehouse in large quantities.
“It’s time to take it out now!”
"Zero, take out the 2,000 sets of equipment I specified from the warehouse and put them on the first floor. I will have the players deliver them to the northern battlefield sub-base."
Most of the energy recovery equipment are rings and necklaces. The inlays can be added in advance, which takes up very little space and can be transported entirely by the Green Goblin skateboard.
"But speaking of transportation... Does this Colossus City airport belong to me?"
After completing the arrangements here, Cheng Shaofeng returned to Colossus City.
The city... is in panic!
The streets were filled with wealthy residents fleeing the city with large and small bags.
Yesterday during the day, after a missile attack, the City Lord's Mansion was blown into a deep pit. A day later, a signal tower-like building was erected.
The city lord and the bishop of the Cross Church have all disappeared!
This is so fucking scary!
Although these two guys are not good people, at least they hide well and have their own rules of conduct, and have never made things difficult for the rich people openly.
Now, the two most powerful people in this city suddenly died!
The residents were in a panic!
No one knows whether the city will be suddenly attacked by missiles and blown to pieces.
What if a nuclear strike happens like hundreds of years ago
Everyone in Shelter 303 was alarmed!
They sent out some people to maintain order, but the effect was minimal. The rich people who had homes and businesses just wanted to escape quickly and wait until the situation stabilized.
This group of people... have been doing this throughout history.
What family feud or national disaster... As long as my property is not damaged, it's fine. You guys can fight, and I'll escape first as a sign of respect!
Highlight the one that runs fast.
The Astrologer was investigating the situation here and happened to see the Green Goblin's skateboard and bodyguard Zero flying in the air.
"Hey! You guys came just in time, something happened!"
"Yesterday, an unknown force attacked the City Lord's Mansion, causing chaos. Your communication equipment is advanced, but do you know who did it?"
Astrologers have seen their smart watches and are amazed!
I am very envious of the Scourge base in the wasteland that can achieve wireless communications.
They said they were also willing to pay for this technology... but Cheng Shaofeng did not give them smart watches.
Only one was left for communications, in the hands of the manager of Shelter 303.
Apart from single-point communication with him, there are no other functions.
Cheng Shaofeng looked at the astrologer with a half-smile: "I did see who attacked the City Lord's Mansion, about 10 people."
"Oh? Only about 10 people? So strong! I see a lot of residual energy at the scene, among which the three types of ice, fire and electricity are the most prominent. It is very likely that the inheritance of those who are proficient in these three attributes was done."
Cheng Shaofeng nodded: "Indeed..."
Astrologer: "Did you see which way they went after they were done?"
"I see. It's going very far south. It probably won't be back any time soon."
The astrologer raised his eyebrows: "Is the information accurate?"
“Very accurate.”
"Okay! Since this city has temporarily lost its control, we, Shelter 303, as the former official agency representing justice and peace, have the obligation to help stabilize this city!"
Seeing the secret joy in the astrologer's eyes, Cheng Shaofeng was puzzled.
"Wait... what are you going to do to my city?"
