"Hoo! A wave of zombies is approaching."
"My plants will tear you apart!"
The gray zombies swayed and walked over there, the suture abomination as a meat shield walked in the forefront, and behind it was a dense army of zombies.
And in the fog on the opposite side, one after another pea gunners suddenly rushed out of the soil, angrily spewing out oily green pea bullets, while the angry watermelon bombardier threw a watermelon bomb with a The shock wave of the deadly threat exploded, blasting mushroom clouds one by one.
Lack of conventional spell support, the close-up zombie army can only move slowly despite the hail of bullets. Although they suffered huge losses on the way, the huge basic number makes them still a huge threat.
And when the two legions met, the fierce hand-to-hand battle had just begun.
The most common zombie collided with the nut defender holding a heavy shield. The gray-brown highly poisonous carrion took the initiative to detonate itself. Green and gray poisonous clouds continued to rise, and the plants contaminated with venom and poisonous mist quickly withered and died. A no-man's land emerges on the battlefield.
On the plant side, they may not be able to move if they are rooted, but the plants that draw power from the earth have endless ammunition. Maybe they have life. They can't be as fearless of life and death as brainless zombies, but at least for the moment After blocking the opponent without fear of sacrifice, the warrior can drown the opponent with countless artillery fire.
Soon, the fierce artillery fire of the plant army caused a gap in the front line of the zombie army, and when the plant's counterattack was about to start, some people couldn't sit still.
"Death! The collective acceleration of the dead race!"
So, when he found out that the zombie army was in bad condition, a black hand behind the scenes acted, and he consumed the last army order.
And when the black mist spread, all the zombies began to speed up their speed frantically, and the violent zombies changed not only the speed, the will of death made them fight soaring, and they even started to take out the madness. Throw your own intestines at your opponent.
"The shelter of the forest and the sun! All plants have doubled their attack speed and doubled their vitality within thirty minutes."
With the command of the commander of the Plant Corps, the pea shooter's bullets formed a line, while the durian heavy artillery and the watermelon bombardier had more firepower. The explosions on the entire front line continued, and countless zombies were blown into the sky.
In the face of an even crazier plant cannon array, the zombie army finally chose the helpless cannon fodder war of attrition, and when the new angry cherries jumped out one by one and exploded frantically, blowing up the main force of the zombie army, the manic zombie group had not broken through the line of fire. Blockade power.
So, I could only consume the remaining zombies in the increasingly fierce artillery attack, and I was helpless.
"Victor, Archmage Amyra!"
As the brilliance dissipated, the battlefield in front of him reverted to a huge chessboard. The zombies' pieces were dull, while the plants' pieces were covered with white brilliance, which seemed to be about to move.
This is the current most popular magic chess game - Zombies vs. Plants series. Of course, the "inventor" and the producer are all myself, and we are obviously not playing a conventional game, but a real war simulation that has certain requirements for users version, and the ordinary version sold to the outside world uses only small chess pieces made of magic oak, which is far less agile than this real fantasy.
By the way, since four versions of the variants appeared in less than a month, and they have already begun to be exported to various countries, this series is also known as the vampire cheating master who sells zombies.
"Hey, this new version is really unbalanced. Even if the zombie side has a numerical advantage, the winning rate is still too low. The explosion system of the plant side is too powerful, and the active attack on the line of fire consumes too much military power. Adjusted. Well, in the next version, we will cut the power of German (Druid) artillery!"
"Ha, the losers will always find reasons."
"Or, add two new chess pieces to the zombie side, bone dragon and lich, but that's not a zombie, let alone Zombies vs. Plants 3 Sword and Magic Edition. Forget it, the name is just as good as morality. , it doesn't matter, join it in the next version."
"Whatever you want, according to the balance rules, in order to satisfy consumers, both parties must add arms of the same rank at the same time. If you add a lich, I will add the Demon World Elf Grass, if you add a bone dragon, I will add a wall of blood thorns, and I will win in the end. "
Amyra laughs and trembles, she can win me two games a day, she just loves this game to death.
"However, can this really make me understand the mysteries of life and enter a new stage? Although it is very pleasant, why do I feel that I have no understanding."
After "inventing" this game with me, I became addicted to it, and "invented" a series of cheating money, such as Zombies vs. Plants Tower Defense Edition, Zombies vs. Plants Fighting King Edition, and Zombies vs. Plants Warcraft Edition. After the work, after she had a lot of fun these days, she finally remembered the root of everything—improving her ability to create.
So, facing the question that was finally remembered, I laughed.
"Of course… no! It's just pure play. Well, put away your piranhas and I'll explain."
"You... you liar! Playing with me again! Playing with my feelings again! I will never listen to you again."
After realizing that she was being tricked again, the screaming Amyra immediately became hysterical, her phoenix eyes sparkled with crazy blood lines, her slender hair began to turn into plants, and the blood began to flow along the tips of her hair. Crazy growth, the field of plants is spreading, I am afraid it will soon be the real version of Zombies vs. Plants.
And as a zombie about to be beaten, I feel a lot of pressure.
But I have a killer.
"One-tenth of the money you sell the game."
"Well, how many are there?"
"The original version of this game has already sold well. As long as our manufacturing process keeps up, all kinds of fraudulent versions add up, and it is indispensable to give you hundreds of thousands of gold coins."
Well, one second it was a storm, the next second, everything became calm, the crazy witch just disappeared without a trace, and the rest is just a gentle man who is quietly sipping black tea and smiling at me. sister.
This is not because Amyra is greedy for money, but because the profession of mage is to burn money, and the more high-end mage is, the more bottomless it is.
Of course, archmages can also sell their own products to make a lot of money, but experimental madmen like Amyra have no budget management ability, let alone pay much attention to product returns. Even if they make money by accident, they will immediately invest in new ones. During the experiment, it was very friendly to rare patrons. Now I heard that some of them made money, and they immediately turned into a business model that took advantage of others.
wrong? Is it the patron who is not being taken advantage of? This is true. Amyra uses her investment at will without considering the expected return. She dares to invest in this crazy mage who can lose as much as she invests.
According to Margaret, Amyra now doesn't even have her own experimental department (it has gone bankrupt and liquidated), and later it was exposed to embezzlement of public funds, and she was directly kicked from the position of the truth controller, and now even her teacher's salary is not enough was taken directly to pay off the debt.
It is also a strange thing for a demigod to get into such a state. The country of mages is full of businessmen who invest in new products, but her reputation in the investment industry has lost her reputation. A coolie running project, where students' small projects feed off her research projects.
"Besides, this is not just a game. These functional plant chess pieces should have given you a lot of hints. I don't believe that through these days of arms drills, your plant army planning and cooperation have not improved at all. At least you There should be inspiration and ideas for designing new plant troops."
Amyra nodded, this is also true, although it is still far from what she expected, it is not that she has gained nothing at all.
"And at our level, it's easier said than done, just be patient, haven't I done what I promised?"
Hearing me say that I have a promise, the handle of the teacup that my sister was holding with her left hand was directly crushed by her. Even if the other right hand caught the falling teacup in time, even though my sister was still smiling, but from that trembling Judging from the corners of his arms and his twitching eyes, he was clearly on the verge of running wild again.
"Brother, how dare you say it, who said back then that we should let go of that boring ethical bondage and explore the mysteries of life together. I thought I got a once-in-a-lifetime confidant, and I was so happy. In the end, you got it. After all my research materials, it disappeared without a trace, and then a report letter was thrown to the Council of Truth Controllers, which made me almost unable to hang out in the Tower of Clouds."
"Ah, did I do this back then? Sorry, reincarnation is too damaging to memory, I don't remember it. Well, we have to look forward, and forget the boring past. By the way, how did you settle it later? of."
forgotten? Of course it's a lie. Back then, there was no limit to what this guy did, and I couldn't stand even the one who didn't have much bottom line. I didn't want to cheat her, but I was a little curious. The accusation letter of the experiment was dropped in the conference room of the truth seminar. At least five truth controllers were present at the time. How did she get it.
"It's nothing. At that time, my mentor helped me hold it down temporarily, and then I killed a truth controller who was biting me and took his place. I paid some more in exchange and made other controllers turn a blind eye. Damn, if it weren't for the fact that I could only use some death row prisoners for experiments, how could my progress be so fast? You can break through the restrictions because you can obtain experimental materials on the battlefield. Sure enough, you should collect test items as much as you like! Hee hee, There are no annoying overseers here."
That hysterical low laugh is creepy. I know she really does what she says, but she hurriedly stops her. Of course, it is impossible to stop her directly, and she is also someone who doesn't listen to persuasion at all.
"Do you have a suitable subject now? After collecting a lot of experimental materials, most of us will have to run away. If we waste it on ordinary subjects, it will be too wasteful. In two years, there will be countless experimental materials for you to choose from. , and compared to humans who are so easy to die, orcs with tenacious vitality are more suitable as test subjects, so let’s do theoretical accumulation for the past two years to accumulate temporary capabilities.”
Hearing my words, she looked at me blankly, and only said a word for a long time.
"Sure enough, you still understand me best. When other people hear me say this, they either start to scold me, or they are scared to death. They can't understand what a glorious sacrifice it is to contribute to my truth research."
"You're still too soft-hearted to actually tell the truth with the test subject. I just threw my mouth on the test bench, screaming, and there was no sound."
"Yeah, I'm a girl after all, it's too easy to be soft-hearted. Last time, the condemned prisoner scolded him so badly. In order to prevent him from dying, I still anesthetized him before I began to dissect him. That anesthetic can at least You can get a new bag of seeds."
Hearing that, even if I followed her words to coax her to be happy, I couldn't take it after that. I dissected the other party alive and said that she was soft-hearted, and she was not afraid of being punished by God.
It seems that she is still not afraid of being seen as a super-dangerous person by other beings, and her seemingly mild appearance just hides her inner madness. I still overestimate her lower limit and integrity.
"Ahem, let's put the subject of the experiment aside for now, let's consider how to earn research funding. Do you think if this 'Zombie vs. Plants - Sword and Magic Edition' is put on the market, what improvements should we make?"
"Actually, we can change our marketing ideas. It's too stupid to sell all the pieces and boards at once. We can sell them separately."
"Huh? I'd like to hear the details. If the pieces are not complete, isn't it impossible to play? Are users still willing to buy them?"
"Stupid, you can only put basic chess pieces and the most primitive chessboard in the set. If you want advanced and special chess pieces, you will have to spend money. Of course, advanced chess pieces can't destroy the balance too much, as long as they are slightly unique The appearance and features can be sold repeatedly. By the way, the original is called the basic package, and it is called the expansion package! As long as the new expansion package limited to the year is released every year, it can be sold every year.”
"You can also add a lottery factor. There is a special chess piece in a pack, so that the opponent will only jump out when he vows never to play again. In order to target younger players, you can also grade the cherishing degree of the chess piece, the more cherished it is. The more it's worth showing off, the more I can't believe I can't take out all the kids' pockets!"
"Oh oh oh, I am impressed by you. This is a business genius. The rumor that you are not good at business is really a rumor."
"Hmph, Margaret said my words again, I'm not bad at business, I'm just too lazy to do business. And these are all things I use to fool my sponsors. A research result is sold several times and several people are sold. , can make a profit."
Looking at this smug bad mage, I can understand why she is obviously powerful, can make a big discovery that will shock the world, and still has such a bad reputation in the investment world. For a hundred years, thousands of people have been scammed, and it is really stupid that someone still asks you to invest.
"It's mean, but I like it! Let's make a lot of money together!"
This kind of behavior will naturally cause anger and resentment against a few people, but if it seems to be aimed at an uncertain market, there is no reason to give up such a good idea.
"Sure enough, you are my confidant."
Well, let's not mention how many passing children are scared by this embarrassing joke, and let's not talk about how this "Zombie vs Plants - Sword and Magic Edition" was scolded and sold at the same time. I spent my time making it. This alternative game is not just for making money.
"One more game! One more game, this time it must be the zombies who won! Has anyone opened a bet?"
"Then, Mom, I want it too. Buy me a set! Oak will do."
"It turns out that the undead are not so scary, they can't even beat plants!"
At this time, we were playing chess in an open space in a square, and the surrounding crowd had long been surrounded by onlookers. At this time, the simplified version of Zombies vs. Plants War Chess that we brought was a big sell. The audience bought the chess and watched a game. The demo was not satisfied, and the crowd enthusiastically asked us to play another game.
Consumers are gods, especially consumers who pay, so after a little chat on stage, we started again.
"It is said that the Principality of Donglan takes the God of Law as the state religion. As long as no crime is committed, even demons and undead can accept it. It is said that even Druids have set up their own academies in Defende. The necromancer's stuff is directly demonstrated in the street. , it is also sold as a commodity, maybe it is true... Can they accept mixed-race children? It is said that Diefend has recently opened many new colleges and universities to provide students with various powerful full-time jobs. study."
Making money is just a by-product. In light of day and day, I show undead magic in a way that the world can accept, so that the residents of the Chauvin Dominion can understand and accept the changes of Donglan. This is the biggest purpose of my business.
"The major new colleges and universities in Defende recruit students to provide specialized training for combat occupations such as druids, engineers, alchemists, necromancers, and law knights. The number of places is limited. If you want to change your destiny and life, please don't miss the opportunity. Speed! We have enrollment materials here, which can be obtained for free."
The admissions officers brought in were busy shouting, attracting the attention of bystanders, and some people were willing to go to Donglan to have a look, and finally, the people who had been watching in the dark couldn't hold back any longer and came out.
"His Royal Highness Roland, Lord Gargalore, please come and talk. These are his original words, 'We have seen your sincerity, and perhaps it is time for us to talk about the alliance.'"
After being inexplicably hung for a week, on the third day I started to publicize it to the public, I finally got an invitation from Lord Chauvin. It seemed that there was something to talk about.
