When Ouyang Shuo was still worrying about Beihai Town, a system announcement resounded throughout China.
"System announcement: 100 towns and territories in China have been successfully promoted, triggering the campaign system, the first battle - the battle of Zhuolu, will officially start in three days, so stay tuned. Friendly reminder: the battle of Zhuolu is optional For campaign scenario missions, only territories above the township level are eligible to sign up."
The players were in an uproar, knowing nothing about the so-called battle system, and there was no information about the battle on the official website. Even Dichen and the others knew nothing about the battle settings.
Compared with the previous territory defense missions, although the scale of this campaign scenario mission is much smaller, its exciting level will definitely not be lower than the former. Because of the restrictions imposed by the system, it means that only the top 100 territories in China are eligible to participate in the mission.
Those territories that are still struggling in the village stage can only protest weakly. And these territories that meet the conditions are all gearing up. Those who are not reconciled naturally want to take advantage of these three days to see if they can promote their territory to a first-class township.
Compared to the bewilderment of others, Ouyang Shuo understood clearly. The most distinctive gameplay of "Earth Online" - the battle map, is finally about to open. In the previous life, the lord players described the battle map as a plane war, which shows how exciting the battle map is.
The so-called battles are somewhat similar to situational missions. The system selects a certain battle that happened in history, and based on this, it deduces a temporary plane map. Eligible lord players can use the teleportation array to bring their own troops, choose a certain camp, and join the battle.
In the battle map, you can meet many historical celebrities, follow them, and participate in the iron-blooded war that year. Even, as long as you have enough wisdom and strength, you can change the direction of history and turn the tide of battle. This immersive feeling is undoubtedly very attractive.
Generally speaking, a dynasty will have at most one campaign. After the battle in this dynasty is over, the historical figures of that dynasty will appear in the wilderness and join the game process.
Therefore, the later the stage, the more historical figures there will be in the wilderness, and the chances of the lord players to recruit famous historical figures will greatly increase.
Another benefit of the battle map is, of course, merit points. The later it is, the more difficult it is for the player to advance to the title. Take Ouyang Shuo himself as an example, he is now a second-class earl, and he is already the player with the highest title in the game. However, it is still difficult to be promoted to the first-class earl. Not to mention a Marquis of a higher rank, the meritorious value required is simply astronomical.
The campaign map provides an opportunity for Lord players to obtain merit points. For each battle, the system ranks the players according to their contribution. The higher the ranking, the more merit points you get, and there are additional rewards for the top ten.
What attracts Lord players most to the battle map is not the things mentioned above. For the lords, the historical warriors and celebrities are what they dream of the most. In the battle map, players have the opportunity to trigger the task of conquering historical figures. As long as the task is completed, they can be conquered and brought back to the territory.
Familiar generals such as Bai Qi, the God of Killing, Xiang Yu, the King of Chu, Zhao Zilong, the God of War, and Li Jing, the God of War, will all appear on the battle map one by one, which makes people excited just thinking about it.
Everyone must have a deep understanding of the rarity of historical figures at this stage. Even in a territory with a profound heritage like Shanhai Town, apart from Shi Wansui, who was rewarded for the task of building a village, in the following six months, only two king-level historical figures, Fan Zhongyan and Tian Wenjing, were obtained. Its rarity is evident from this.
After the system announcement was issued, all Lord players in China received a system notification, and Ouyang Shuo was no exception.
"System reminder: In order to cooperate with the opening of the campaign system, the system will build a teleportation array for your territory for free. Please choose the construction location. Friendly reminder: This teleportation array will be permanently reserved, and it can also be used for teleportation between territories. Please be careful Choose a build location."
A blue light flashed by the brush, and a holographic map of Shanhai Town appeared in front of Ouyang Shuo.
It is very particular about choosing the location to build the teleportation array. First of all, the teleportation array cannot be built indoors. Therefore, it is necessary to choose an open place. Moreover, for the convenience of transmission, there must be enough space, otherwise, there will be crowded situations.
But the teleportation array cannot be built in the wild. Because the teleportation array can be destroyed, in future territorial wars, if the enemy destroys the teleportation array, then the allies will not be able to teleport over for reinforcements.
In the end, Ouyang Shuo decided to build the teleportation array on the east side of the square of the Lord's Mansion, where it is not only open, but also close to the military area, so the security is guaranteed.
"System prompt: The construction location of the teleportation array has been selected, and the teleportation array is being automatically generated..."
"System prompt: The teleportation array has been built, please check it yourself!"
When Ouyang Shuo walked out of the Lord's Mansion, he saw a huge teleportation formation standing on the east side of the square.
The entire teleportation array is in the shape of a disc with a diameter of about ten meters. The material is neither stone nor jade, and it looks very simple. The core of the disc is a black and white Tai Chi pattern, which keeps rotating slowly clockwise. The middle circle of the disc is the Eight Diagrams pattern, and the outermost circle is the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
In the four directions of the teleportation array, there are also four bronze statues, which are the blue dragon in the east, the white tiger in the west, the red bird in the south, and the Xuanwu in the north. The entire teleportation array takes the spirit of the four directions as the node, forming a three-dimensional protective light curtain. People without authority cannot enter the teleportation array.
Ouyang Shuo approached the teleportation array, pressed his right hand on the light curtain, and began to set up the teleportation array.
"System prompt: Please choose someone who has the authority to open the teleportation array!"
Currently, he is the only player in Shanhai Town, so he has the permission to open the teleportation formation. Ouyang Shuo has set it to be the only one that has the permission to open the teleportation formation.
"System prompt: Please select the territory transfer mode. You can choose one of the three transfer modes: free transfer mode, non-permission-free transfer mode, or war transfer mode only."
The protective light curtain of the transmission array is not bidirectional. In other words, it can prevent people without permission from entering the teleportation array, but it cannot prevent people from walking out of the teleportation array.
Therefore, for the sake of territorial security, a restriction must be placed on the transmission mode.
Free transfer mode is the least restrictive transfer mode. It means that anyone on the ally side can teleport over at any time without the permission of the other party. Unless they are allies of iron and blood, otherwise, few lords will choose this mode. Because, you cannot guarantee that any member of the ally side is reliable.
If one of your allies is bought by your opponent or enemy, then the other party can infiltrate your territory through the ally's teleportation array. If you're careful, it can even go unnoticed. This is undoubtedly very dangerous. With Ouyang Shuo's cautious character, he would naturally not choose this transmission mode.
In order to guard against this possible infiltration, there is a second transmission mode, which is the non-permission non-transmission mode. In this teleportation mode, if the other party wants to teleport to your territory, they must obtain your permission. That way, you can know who is being teleported and when. With this information, as long as there is precaution, it will be difficult for the other party to destroy it.
Of course, if you are more cautious, you can also choose the third teleportation mode - only war teleportation. In this teleportation mode, only when a territorial war occurs and allies are needed for reinforcements, the other party can teleport over with your permission. At any other time, it cannot be transmitted.
This model is undoubtedly very suitable for allies whose trust is not high enough. Because in the final analysis, even if it is a non-permissioned transmission mode, there is still the possibility of being infiltrated and destroyed by the other party.
Similarly, for those purely military alliances, the war-only teleportation mode is also very suitable. The two parties only agreed to help each other, and did not discuss any other economic and cultural exchanges.
"Choose the non-permission mode!" Ouyang Shuo said.
Although the members of the Shanhai League have not established a high level of mutual trust, Ouyang Shuo still believes that he has the ability to control the risk within a controllable range. After all, the Department of Military Intelligence and the Department of Public Security are not vegetarians. If an ally was really bought, and given the warning, Ouyang Shuo believed that the other party would not be able to make any big waves. After all, the third transmission mode, no matter how you look at it, seems a bit closed to the outside world.
"System Prompt: Do you want to enable Add Transmission Mode?"
No matter which one of the three transmission modes mentioned above, the prerequisite is the transmission between allies. If there is no alliance, then it is impossible to teleport to the other party's territory anyway.
However, if your friends, or the talents you want to recruit, need to be sent over, what should you do at this time? In this regard, the system is still very user-friendly. In addition to these three transmission modes, an additive transmission mode is designed.
The so-called adding teleportation mode means that the lord can directly add the name of the person you want to teleport to on the teleportation list, then the other party can teleport to your territory through any teleportation array.
"Open!" Ouyang Shuo said without hesitation.
