In order to ascend, I had no choice but to play games.

Chapter 282 The Legacy of the Immortal Society ([-]st update)
The final boss battle was broadcast live in its entirety. Someone actually watched the 32-hour live broadcast from beginning to end, and cheered with the same excitement after the demon god was destroyed.

Some of them are players who participated in the Demon God event, but no longer have the energy to create an account again, some are game practitioners, and some are players from North America who cannot play games and can only play cloud games.

Landick just took a look at it casually at first, and occasionally laughed at Fancheng Studio for daring to do such a thing.

Players hate losses very much. In the early version of "Darkest Dungeon 2", points could not be washed. At that time, players adding wrong attributes and skills would directly lead to the character being scrapped. Even the arrogant Druid Entertainment finally had to add a patch to introduce this setting. The point-washing function shows how strongly the players protested at that time.

In the end, killing the boss requires giving up everything. This setting seems novel, but in fact it is a mess. It has only been seen in some independent games and niche games.

What's more, in "Princess Dungeon 2", the final equipment of the player is all high-quality. It is really puzzling to want the player to give everything just to kill the final boss.

But the performance of the players was really unexpected.

They were actually willing to abandon their characters and equipment and complete the last part of the game, thereby achieving a rare feat in the history of the game.

At the end, he even held his breath and roared with excitement in the office when the player won.Fortunately, there were cheers one after another in the headquarters, and no one noticed his gaffe.

But after getting excited, he needed to deal with subsequent problems.

This is a very rare feat. A million sacrifices are extremely rare in the history of games, but the sense of accomplishment after success is also unparalleled.

Social media has been full of discussions about "Princess Dungeon 2", and Fangcheng Studio has subsequently updated a small version to provide every player who participated in this kill and contributed their characters and equipment. A unique title, "Hero".

The game inn even announced the number of hero titles for each country. China was naturally far ahead, followed by Prussia, Gaul, Britain...

Only North America has less than a thousand people, and even some unknown small countries are higher than them.

The Demon God will not come again, and this title will become an out-of-print title and become one of their important collections.

In this carnival of players, the North American player was like a little boy who had been bullied. He could only blow his nose and bite his fingers, watching the carnival of others with envy.

The fun is theirs, I have nothing.

The more heated the discussion around them, the more lonely they became. This anger was eventually reflected on the official social account of Druid Entertainment.

Compared with the previous attacks, this attack was even worse.

Many people even started to wrap cow dung in newspapers and burn it in front of Druid Entertainment. The pungent smell made the company smell strange all day long.

Looking at the reports about him in the media, Landick covered his head and realized for the first time that the players seemed to be hard to fool.

I really miss the era when the Internet was not yet developed, and players could do whatever they wanted, unlike now.

After asking his secretary to pour him a cup of coffee, Landick asked, "What do you think we should do now?"

"Now there are three strategies to choose from: upper, middle and lower." The secretary said calmly.

"What's wrong with the way you talk? Are you also influenced by Huaxia?"

"...Well, I learned about China and watched the Three Kingdoms. I like the way the counselors talk in it."

Sighing, Landick felt a sense of cultural invasion.

In the past, Hollywood dominated the world, and American values ​​dominated the world. Everyone drank Coke and sang pop music, and regarded North America as a beacon and savior of mankind.

Under the influence of this cultural trend, all foreign cultures are just exhibits in the window and can be used for fun.

Not like now, everything has been invaded.

Shaking his head, Landick asked: "Tell me, what are the three strategies?"

"The best policy is to publicly apologize, lift sanctions, and actively cooperate. Then it can still be undone."

"There's no way we can apologize."

"China's strategy is to raise the price now to acquire Fangcheng Studio, so that it can be saved."

"Can consider it."

"The next best thing is to pretend to be dead and wait for the storm to subside."

After thinking for a long time, Landick decided to use both middle and lower strategies.

After all, the final boss has been defeated, and the players' enthusiasm will not last long. After this period, they will be fine.

However, Landik clearly underestimated the intensity of discussion on this matter.

For half a month, the hot search was still "Princess Dungeon 2". Some players who had never heard of it also became interested in the game because of this big event and began to buy the game.

And after the demon is defeated, it is not the end, but just the beginning.

The demon's body was torn apart, and his body was scattered around the world, evolving into new dungeons.

Although the new dungeon is not as terrifying as the Demon God, its strength is generally above level nine, and it also includes new equipment, new monsters and new mechanisms, allowing players to play more happily.

And because the distribution of dungeons is random, players began to travel to various parts of the world and were surprised to find that it was actually an open world.

They can wipe out nobles who have fled to the depths, fight against hidden strong men, and they can even form a guild and manage a city.

The world view of the game is interconnected with "New World", which allows them to combine the gameplay of the two games and generate more routines.

Faced with this new gameplay, players all said, "Who the hell can withstand this?"

The polar night world, which has just lifted the crisis of annihilation, is full of vitality. Industrialization will bring about massive population growth. Newborns will get a world without the threat of demons. The development of the world will move towards a new level under the leadership of players and workers. new era.

After seeing clearly how the entire game was played, even Landick had to sigh, "Awesome."

Fang Cheng, you are really a genius.

But at this time, the immortal who was called a genius looked at the red dust fire in his hand and fell into silence.

Brushing games originally take advantage of players' greed, so it stands to reason that this type of game should be easy to prove.

But just now, the red dust fire turned into a dazzling white light, which was the embodiment of the player's will when he condensed his will into a ball and was willing to dedicate himself.

Although it’s nice to see you being so moral, can you please stop being moral at this time?
After sensing it, Fang Cheng discovered that the residual thoughts of the Greedy Demon Lord in the original planet had dissipated, and that was the guy he wanted to deal with.

"You really can't underestimate those guys." Fang Cheng sighed.

"Boss, who are you saying you shouldn't underestimate?" Xuan Jing asked from the side.

"Player."

"I think so too, those guys are really amazing."

"Alas..." After sighing, Fang Cheng continued walking in the mirror universe, following the clues from the Immortal Society to get there.

He brought the Xuanjing because the other party needed to see the world. After all, he was the weapon spirit indirectly created by himself.

Moreover, the other party has made a great contribution to virtual reality, so I just use this opportunity to repay the cause and effect, just as taking the other party to make up for the overseas travel that stopped abruptly before.

Most areas of the mirror universe are void, and areas that once had civilization have long since turned into chaos due to the disease in the body.

In these chaotic areas, shadows and complex laws blend with each other, turning into pots of chaotic porridge. Almost all effective information is destroyed, making it difficult to find useful intelligence.

After trying to analyze a lump of chaotic porridge, Fang Cheng found that all the information inside was wrong.

If the civilizations here are classified, then most of them have not reached the level of leaving their own galaxy. If the power of the original universe had not brought them here, they would not even be able to leave the original universe.

Finding that no effective information could be obtained from Chaos Porridge, Fang Cheng could only continue to move towards the location of the Immortal Association.

Finally, after several days of long journey, Fang Cheng finally arrived at the location where the induction occurred and found the ruins of the Immortal Association located here.

Although he had expected it, Fang Cheng still felt a little regretful after seeing the situation here.

There are ruins all around, and the supposedly grand buildings have completely collapsed. The air was originally full of aura, but now it has almost dissipated due to lack of care.

The entire planet has fallen silent. Although a large number of immortal buildings can be seen, there are no living people.

Among the ruins, there are thick grasses. In the only hall that seems to be intact, more than a dozen white bones sit cross-legged, seeming to be chanting something before they die.

"They are all true immortals." Fang Cheng said while floating in mid-air, looking at the situation here.

"Boss, what level is a true immortal?" Xuan Jing asked curiously.

"Those who embark on the path of spiritual practice are cultivators. Those who have a glimpse of the road and have unfathomable magic power are immortals. Among the immortals, the beginning is the true immortal, the one above the true immortal is the deity, and the one above the deity is the great deity. .”

"It doesn't sound like there are many realms. I thought it would be divided into Qi refining, foundation building, golden elixir, Nascent Soul and so on."

"It can be divided like this, but the essence is still the same. Anyway, the granularity of my division at that time was this. After all, everyone doesn't need to fight, just practice."

Xuan Jing looked at Fang Cheng who was beside him thoughtfully: "So boss, how many great gods are there?"

"It's just me. In fact, there was no such title as Great Heavenly Lord, but after I came along, this title became available."

Although Fang Cheng said it in an understatement, Xuan Jing still felt a domineering aura coming towards him, and almost knelt down and shouted "Godfather" again.

However, Fang Cheng had explained to him the complexity of cause and effect, and knew that if he bowed this way, he was afraid that the boundless cause and effect would directly kill him, so he could only endure it.

Unexpectedly, I can’t even recognize my father these days.

After observing for a while, Fang Cheng said to Xuan Jing: "You can wander around as you like, and I'll see if I can sense something happening here. The Immortal Society must have encountered an accident and disappeared. I'll see if I can find any useful clues."

Xuan Jing was also a little curious about this place, so he left the hall and began to observe the surroundings.

Taking out a bronze mirror from his arms, Xuan Jing threw the mirror into the air. Two mirrors were born, and two mirrors were born four, until they covered the sky and the sun.

These mirrors are scattered like satellites. Each mirror is an ear and eye of Xuanjing, covering the entire world in its own field of vision.

Xuan Jing's body is a mirror, and as the weapon spirit of the mirror, he is born with the ability to control the mirror, and continues to improve related abilities as he grows older.

Under the cover of the mirror, he easily observed everything on the planet and began to look for things that interested him.

Continuously moving back and forth in the mirror, he sometimes came to the seaside, sometimes to the top of the mountain, but the whole world was dead silent, not to mention a living person, not even an animal, fish or insect could be seen.

Even the plants were dead, with strong winds blowing the leaves off the trees and drying them out, leaving only dry trees.

"What the hell is going on with this place?"

Looking around in confusion, Xuan Jing suddenly sensed something.

It was the same kind of breath, a rhythm that only the weapon spirit could hear. There was a weapon spirit calling him from inside the planet, and beckoning him to come over and sit down.

Without saying a word, Xuan Jing turned around and ran, passed through the mirror, and ran all the way to Fang Cheng's side before stopping.

When encountering something suspicious, the right way is to go to your elders. Don't be curious if there is nothing wrong.

At this time, the thigh is safe.

Seeing Xuan Jing coming back, Fang Cheng stopped the magic in his hand and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Someone is calling me. Boss, didn't you hear it? By the way, that's the voice of the spirit spirit. It's normal that you can't hear it, boss. Let me tell you..."

"No, don't move."

After grabbing Xuan Jing's ear, Fang Cheng put a wisp of air to his ear, and then said: "As expected, I'm just telling you. But the other party doesn't seem to have any ill intentions, so you can go and have a look."

"...Boss, can you stop being so awesome and making me look incompetent?"

Patting Xuan Jing's arm with relief, Fang Cheng stretched out his hand and patted it. The planet was immediately penetrated by invisible power, straight to the hot center of the earth, revealing a hole.

Grabbing Xuan Jing's clothes, Fang Cheng jumped into it, his figure constantly falling.

This is not a simple hollow, but more like a transparent pipe.

In the process of falling, Xuan Jing could see rocks passing by him. Huge skeletons were the remains of once huge creatures. Black oil was flowing in the soil, and red lava was passing by them.

After passing through the hot and white core of the earth, Xuan Jing felt a chill around him. The hot feeling disappeared and was replaced by a room hidden deep in the core of the earth.

It looked like a boxy coffin, no more than three meters square in size, with no windows or entrances.

In the middle of the room, a Taoist book lay quietly on the stone table. The Taoist book was filled with densely packed small characters. Xuan Jing did not recognize every word, but it did not prevent him from noticing the mystery in the words.

"Boss, what is this?" Xuan Jing asked.

"Xumi Illusion, it seems that the Immortal Society still has something to offer."

And after looking at the mysterious mirror next to him, Fang Cheng said, "And your karma is here."

"what?"

Then, Xuan Jing felt himself being pushed gently. The force seemed gentle, but he couldn't resist it, and he was pushed directly into the book.

Fang Cheng also left his body and stepped into the world of books.
