Chapter 27: Dog planning, thinking about how to make money every day
The new update content attracted countless players to the game forum, urging Xu Ercong to publish an introduction related to the update content.
After all, the planner is aloof, and this time the planning team just released the updated content like the last time, without giving any relevant introduction.
If you want to know the details of the update, you can only explore it yourself.
What skills does the new profession have? What are the requirements for changing professions? Is the new profession powerful?
Where is the PK arena? What are the conditions for PK?
What are the leaderboard title rewards? What are the specific effects? Can other players see them?
And the question that players are most concerned about... "Where is the mysterious mentor!"
Countless questions arise on gaming forums.
It was not until the updated content was completely released that Xu Ercong received an email from Xu Xiaofan explaining the updated content of the game.
The email came with a lot of detailed update content and data, which are what players want to know at this stage.
It’s not that Xu Xiaofan is unwilling to directly publish these data and content.
One reason is that these data are too large to be presented to players all at once, and are therefore not suitable as update notification content.
The second reason is that he had a contract with Xu Ercong, in which he used these so-called insider information in exchange for Xu Ercong to help "Death Scourge" with advertising and promotion.
As soon as Xu Ercong got the new information, he immediately went to the forum to explain it to the players.
At this time, Bai Xiaosheng also drew the third legion appointment letter.
Poor two club bosses, their act of spending money on the lottery should have caused a sensation, but unfortunately the limelight and popularity were snatched away by the planner Xu Xiaofan.
A large number of players have come to the game forum to look for information and strategy news about the latest updates.
The two poor guys could only look at each other and silently came to the Hall of Death, where they were received by Xu Xiaofan's divine clone and went through the necessary procedures for forming a legion.
"What? There are also faith requirements!"
Long Aotian widened his eyes and stared at the cloaked Grim Reaper in front of him: "Xu Ercong fooled us, he didn't say that there is a requirement of faith to form an undead army!"
The data of faith degree is displayed in the data template of each player.
At first, no one quite understood what this thing meant or what it represented. After all, it seemed to have no effect on anyone.
But who would have known that it would actually appear in some very important gaming activities and become a relatively difficult hard condition.
The degree of faith is divided into four levels: "shallow believer", "true believer", "fanatic believer" and "son of death".
There is no fixed data showing the degree of belief.
According to the current test data of bored players, only by constantly watching the novice tutorial, praying to the statue of the Grim Reaper in the Hall of Death, and reading game literature such as the Holy Scripture, can one slowly increase the degree of faith and gradually reach the standard of a "true believer".
As for the level above "true believer", no one has reached it yet.
However, if you want to become the leader of the Undead Legion, your faith must reach the highest level of faith, "Son of Death"!
"Your faith must reach the level of the Son of Death before you can obtain the status of a legion leader."
Long Aotian was desperate. He had no idea how to improve his faith.
Could it be that I am going to be like those bored players on the forum and simply stop upgrading and just stay in the Hall of Death every day, praying and reading and reciting literature?
The realistic gaming experience of Death Scourge has attracted more and more players of different types to join the game.
Many players do not seek fun in killing monsters and leveling up, they prefer to experience the extremely realistic game content presented by [Death Scourge] itself.
For example, the background of the game, the origin of the God of Death, the belief system, the special text of the believers, and all the relevant details of the expansion pack, the Continent of Esk.
The more they understand the game, the more they realize the good intentions of the game team. There are so many details that are extremely realistic, which makes people marvel at the efforts of the game team.
But Long Aotian is not a casual player!
His purpose of playing games is simple, that is to become awesome! To become the boss in the game! To dominate the world!
"Is there any way to quickly increase our faith?"
Bai Xiaosheng looked at the Grim Reaper in front of him and asked the question that he himself and Long Aotian wanted to know the most.
Now that the legion appointment letter has been obtained, the only thing left is the prerequisite requirement of faith.
"Faith refers to your faith and loyalty to the God of Death. This is a power that comes from the heart. The more devout the believers are, the more likely they are to receive the God of Death's favor..."
Xu Xiaofan's divine clone spoke hoarsely and said a lot of words that left Long Aotian and Bai Xiaosheng confused.
After all this time, you, the NPC, still haven't told me how to increase the degree of faith.
"Could it be that even the planners haven't thought about this issue yet?"
Bai Xiaosheng looked back at Long Aotian, who nodded in agreement: "That makes sense. This might be a bug. The game setting for faith might not even be something the planners themselves have figured out."
It is not uncommon for any new game to have some bugs, big or small.
"That……"
Bai Xiaosheng turned his head, looked at Xu Xiaofan's divine clone, and asked, "Sir Death, how did the first guy who successfully created the Undead Army improve his faith?"
This question hits the nail on the head!
We all have no way to improve our faith, so how could Xu Ercong meet the highest standard of faith and succeed in creating a legion?
The Death God's clone said calmly: "Because he prayed sincerely and contributed a lot of his life to prove his loyalty to the Death God, and at the same time accepted the baptism, he became the honorable Son of the Death God."
"Oh, I understand." Long Aotian suddenly realized.
"What? You want to spend more money?" Bai Xiaosheng also understood.
They just don't understand.
What is this planner thinking? If he doesn't open a recharge channel, he will just recycle the game currency to death.
how?
Is this game currency so good?
It's just a bunch of data, not real lifespan.
"This is really crazy. He is thinking of ways to recycle the game currency. Is he really worried about the inflation of the game currency?"
"Don't even mention inflation. The current transaction ratio has reached a terrifying level."
"This idiot planner is always thinking about how to make money."
"It would be fine if he really made money, but he actually thinks about making game coins every day. He is really crazy."
The two communicated for a while and finally made up their mind.
Spend money!
What else can I do if I don't smash it? It has come to this point, I can't give up at the last minute.
Long Aotian asked: "How many life points do you want?"
"Ten thousand days."
"That's enough."
Long Aotian and Bai Xiaosheng breathed a sigh of relief. They both had some savings, just enough for the baptism.
The two looked at the clone of the God of Death and said in unison: "We must contribute our lifespans, accept baptism, and become the sons of the God of Death!"
"Okay, follow me."
The Death clone nodded and took the two people into the Death Hall.
The so-called baptism, taking the opportunity to collect the lifespans from the rich players is one of Xu Xiaofan’s goals, but it is not the ultimate goal.
The Undead Legion was originally very important to Xu Xiaofan, especially the Undead Legion composed entirely of players, which was a force that was difficult to control.
If you want to completely control and guide the Undead Legion composed of players, the best way is to control it from the source, that is, to control the leader of the Undead Legion.
For a normal person, how can you control him?
What if he stops playing the game and quits it? Wouldn't this legion be paralyzed?
So in order to avoid this situation , Xu Xiaofan set a requirement for the degree of faith.
Contribute a large amount of lifespan, which will be exchanged for corresponding divine power to baptize the soul of the player who is about to become the legion commander.
That is the baptism in the true sense, which makes him recognize the Kingdom of the God of Death and identify with the God of Death Xu Xiaofan from the soul level, and become a true believer in the God of Death from the soul level!
This kind of transformation and baptism is subtle and cannot be achieved overnight. It is divided into several stages, and the legion leaders need to return to the Hall of Death every once in a while to be baptized again and deepen the impact.
Although this baptism is slow, after baptism there will be no obvious signs of it on , but one will have true faith.
The degree of faith that Xu Xiaofan sets for the players is actually the players' true degree of belief in the god of death.
Faith is originally a kind of dependence, a kind of identification, and a kind of resonance.
Just like many players are die-hard fans of certain popular games, this is also a kind of belief.
…
While the two club bosses were receiving the baptism of faith, Xu Ercong on the game forum was also constantly spitting out saliva, introducing the content of this game update.
"I believe everyone has a lot to learn about this game update, so I will briefly explain it to you."
"Come on, for more detailed information and strategies , I will arrange for someone to post them in the strategy section, and you can check them out for yourself."
"First, the emergence of new professions. [Undead Preacher] and [Hand of the Dead] are both new professions that have been transferred from the alien system. They have great potential and are also the most friendly professions for newcomers!"
"Why do you say that?"
Xu Ercong whetted everyone's appetite before slowly saying, "Because there are no job transfer requirements for these two new professions! As long as the level meets the requirements, you can go directly to the Death Hall and find the Lord Death to transfer your job!"
“Awesome!”
"I want to marry the planner!"
"Planning dad, please allow me to say I love you!"
"The planner dad finally saw how pitiful I was, struggling in the dungeon to change my job."
As soon as the news was announced, players in the live broadcast room spoke up one after another, they were extremely excited and celebrated together.
"Everyone, please be quiet."
Xu Ercong shouted, and then continued: "【Undead Preacher】 is a profession that can heal the undead and restore their fighting power. Of course, the skills of this profession will also cause a certain degree of damage to non-undead creatures."
"We can think of [Dead Preacher] as a nurse profession with certain combat capabilities! However, the combat capabilities of [Dead Preacher] are definitely not much stronger than those of normal job transfers. Otherwise, if the nurse can fight and heal, other professions will become useless."
"As for the [Hand of the Undead], this is a special life profession and not a combat profession."
"According to the game settings of [Death Scourge], each player can only switch to one profession, which means that a life profession and a combat profession cannot be taken care of at the same time. I think the emergence of this new profession is also for the convenience and to meet the needs of casual players."
"In Death's Scourge, there are not only combat players, but also many casual players. Hand of the Dead is very suitable for casual players to change their jobs, and there are no job change quest requirements."
"After changing your job to [Hand of the Undead], you can master various skills such as [Forging], [Refining], and [Taming Creatures]."
"I suspect that the reason why there are no blood potions and magic potions now is that they need to be manufactured by this life profession in order to produce regular combat medicines that players can use."
“The emergence of [Hand of the Dead] has given more casual players more room for development. When they have nothing to do, they can go fishing, look at the flowers and trees, and even refine some medicine to sell for money. How great.”
Xu Ercong said with a smile: "In addition, in order to respond to the official call, our First Legion will recruit an additional group of life-related players. The benefits will be the same as those of the combat-related players, and they will even receive more professional training and attention!"
Xu Ercong was not stupid. He roughly guessed Xu Xiaofan's intention. The life profession of [Hand of the Undead] would inevitably become the logistics team of all players, and they would have a very important position in the game.
Therefore, we should take advantage of the fact that this profession has just been released to train a large number of life-related players to switch professions, so that our first legion will no longer have to worry about logistics.
