Chapter 155 Insider
Long Xingtian was not as worried as I was, his expression always seemed quite calm, as if he didn't feel the tension of the situation at all. "How is it? Do you have any plans to 'return to the right' and change your job?"
I was stunned and asked him to discuss countermeasures. Why did he get involved in the transfer of jobs? He wouldn't even think about surrendering and turning against him? If this is the case, then our dark forces will have no hope. Long Xingtian, who is the most famous and qualified to act as a spiritual pillar, is planning to change his ranks. How can others insist on fighting? As for me, my reputation is very famous. It's a pity that I have always "no big ambitions" and lack the ability to command and plan. I can still make do with it after following others. I'm afraid I don't have that kind of ability to take on the role of "spiritual pillar". "Fighting for the world" is not something that anyone can do.
"You come to me, don't you want to discuss with me to go to the Church of Light to change jobs after you advance to Level 5, right?" I couldn't figure out his true intentions, so I couldn't answer, so I asked again.
"You have said just now that the situation is indeed very unoptimistic. There are already players who are familiar with the inside story that the necromancer and the demon knight are representatives of the dark forces and the mortal enemies of the Light Church. Now we have become the target of public criticism. With the efforts of the Light Church, more and more players who have reached level five professions will definitely be more and more players who have reached level five professions to join their camp. What is waiting for us will probably be increasingly fierce pursuits and the possibility of failure is very high. Instead of doing this, it is better to make plans early and change jobs in advance. In the future, a counterattack will help the Light Church completely destroy all the strongholds of the dark forces in the human world and achieve the goal of "Light World". There will also be a considerable reward." Long Xingtianxia talked freely, as if he had a certain plan in his heart.
"But once we change our job, the artifacts we have obtained will no longer be used. We have to give up. Are you willing to give up?" There are only three artifacts in the whole "Tianxia", and they are all lucky to get them through lottery. It is not something that can be done at the moment by relying on our strength to win by killing the boss. It is simply not something that can be done at the moment. Giving up so easily is really unwilling to be reluctant.
"You can't resell it if you can't use it. There are not just a few people in the Undead Wizard and the Demon Knight. We chose to change our positions, and there will always be people who are willing to persist. Getting a magical weapon is very helpful for the struggle. As long as you take action earlier, you can definitely sell it for a good price." Long Xingtianxia seems to be considering it quite comprehensively.
I have to admit that Long Xingtianxia's words are very reasonable. It is accurate to judge the cruelty of the future situation, which makes people inevitably shake. Unfortunately, they are just shaken. If I really want to give up my identity as a deceased wizard and turn to the embrace of the Church of Light, I still can't do it.
It’s not how great my personality and sentiment are. It’s just a virtual game. Since I allow it, I don’t think “betrayal” is shameful. This can only be blamed for the imbalance in the game settings. The strength of the two major forces of Light and Dark is absolutely unbalanced. When the final rewards are the same, I can’t think of a reason for a normal player to choose to join the dark force. If I were not Ah Dai, the "No. 1 Dead Wizard in the World", without friends like Ah Feng and enemies like Hua Mantian, I wouldn’t be sure whether I could still persist.
I would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of an ox. I am a famous undead wizard. I have the magical artifact "Touch of Death" and can summon a powerful dark knight. Whether I have seen me or not, Ah Dai's name is widely known to players. If I devote myself to the Church of Light, all of this I have may be lost and become an unknown little person. I am just an ordinary person, with seven emotions and six desires, and will also be greedy for vanity, and have honors and reputations I have never obtained before. I absolutely do not want to give up easily.
Another reason is that Hua Mantian is A Feng's enemy, which is also my enemy. With his principles and personality in his handling of things, and in addition, he is a knight profession, he is likely to choose to defect to the Church of Light and become a Knight of Light. A Feng will never be in the same camp as him. The opposite of light is darkness. "All the Resistance Force" will be his only choice, so that he can openly revenge on Hua Mantian. As his friend, it was also my original intention of entering the game. It is impossible for me not to stand on the same front with him and fully support his revenge action.
I smiled bitterly, "No matter what, I will not choose to change my job. If you fail, you will fail. It's just a game, and I can't do anything to me." In reality, I have suffered repeated setbacks and still have a certain ability to withstand the blow of failure. I am not the kind of person who can't afford to lose. Besides, I have earned 200,000 to 300,000 yuan now, which is quite good in my heart. It can allow me to patiently find a job. After all, I have not yet become a professional player, and I am more in order to help Afeng take revenge. Even if I lose nothing in the game, it is no big deal.
"It's not a wise choice to persevere even though you know it's likely to fail."
"I'm not a smart person at first, but Brother Long, have you really decided to change your position to become a Knight of Light?" I still feel sorry for Long Xingtian's decision. If he and I fight side by side, I can have more confidence. With the names of our two, there are two major artifacts in hand, which should be able to influence a group of people.
"When did I tell you that I was going to transfer to the Church of Light?" Long Xingtian looked surprised.
"You didn't say it just now..." I suddenly couldn't continue. Although I kept inducing me in my words, he really never said that he wanted to change his job.
"I am just putting myself in my shoes and analyzing the situation and finding a relatively stable and bright road for you to choose from. I didn't say that I wanted to surrender. Don't misunderstand it." Long Xingtianxia stared at me seriously and said, "explaining".
"So, do you still have to insist on fighting against the Church of Light?" I carefully verified.
"Of course, I am a famous demon knight and have obtained a new magic weapon. How could I surrender without fighting? This is too embarrassing." The "sneering smile" on Long Xingtianxia's face seemed particularly "hapless" in my eyes.
"You have said so much just now. Are you testing me?" I couldn't help but look straight. Although the "betrayal" crisis has certainly made me happy. The dark forces have added a large pillar, but it will not feel so good if you are fooled.
"Ah Dai, don't be angry first. There is a reason for me to do this. If you don't figure out your true intentions first, it will be inconvenient to tell you some insider information." Seeing that I looked bad, Long Xingtianxia quickly explained.
"Oh, what inside information do you know? You need to play with these tricks?" I suppressed my anger and waited for him to explain further.
"Do you think the setting is unreasonable about the ultimate mission of the two major forces of "The World" in the decisive battle?"
"Yes, it's very unreasonable. Isn't it said that the game focuses on a balance? But the setting for the Church of Light is too strong. Not only does it have a powerful NPC support, but players are also allowed to choose to join. We, the wizard and the Demon Knight, did not have an advantage in numbers, and now we are at an absolute disadvantage. This is too unfair." Although we had already learned from the old man that the Church of Light is powerful from the old man when we first changed our post, the gap was so huge that it was definitely beyond my imagination.
"In fact, this ultimate mission was intentional when designing the game, and it was originally based on inequality."
"Why?" A global large company with strong strength and credibility should not make such obvious mistakes in game design.
"Do you know the background of the 'Tianxia International' that developed this game?"
I thought about it, "It seems to be jointly established by nine world-class large companies from China, the United States, the European Union, South Korea, Japan, Russia, South Africa, Australia and Brazil."
"This contest between light and darkness is actually a continuation of the internal struggle of the nine major shareholders of Tianxia International in virtual games. Enterprises in developed Western countries, led by the United States and the European Union, are proud to master relatively advanced technology, often bear the design of the main part of the game and share most of the profits, which is reflected in the fact that Tianxia International is still the same. They look down on players in developing countries and regions such as Asia and Africa, and think that their game level is low and their ability to understand games is not high. Therefore, when designing, they are more mixed with some Western ideas and ideas, disregarding some different views on game design by China, South Africa, Brazil and other countries, and only let their game producers participate in some details supplements and designs. The earliest proposed "Tianxia" design plan was originally darkly leaning towards players of the light system, and plans to gradually support them in achieving the leadership of the game.
In the end, the Church of Light 'unification' was not designed for the two hostile dark professions, the Necromancer and the Demon Knight. This plan was strongly opposed by several developing countries, including China, and it was difficult to reach an agreement. After continuous discussion, it compromised each other and designed the current game pattern. The light hidden professions were set up in the Western continent. In the other three continents, mainly the Eastern continent, the hidden professions of the two dark forces, the Necromancer and the Demon Knight, were arranged. The performance of Eastern and Western players in the game determines whether the design ideas of the virtual games released by Tianxia International will continue to be based on the background of Western developed countries, or appropriately learn from and absorb the ideas and cultural concepts of developing countries, including China, so that their producers can participate more in the game design work and share a larger share of profits."
It is indeed insider information. The background is so complicated that it is hard not to be surprised. "Since such an important struggle is involved, why not strive for fair conditions?"
This time it was Long Xingtianxia's turn to smile bitterly, "Western companies have a great technological advantage and have the initiative. If you want to learn and develop, you have to cooperate with them. The opportunity to compete for is already very difficult. Can you still make higher demands? After all, you have only won the design power of the undead wizard and the demon knight, and try your best to make them compete with the Church of Light. Even so, you are constantly being supervised and troubled by Western designers. You have to modify the profession by destroying the balance of the game. You have to make many changes. And you have to make these things public. It is a conscious decision to choose to develop in the game. If you fall behind, you will be bullied. This is really an eternal truth."
I was speechless and sighed with him. The other party has financial and technological advantages. In addition to a large population, there is really not much capital that we can use to negotiate terms with them.
"These should be internal secrets, how did you know?" Since it is not allowed to be disclosed, it must not be so easy to know.
"Do you know which company is China's shareholding?"
"It should be the Long Group." This is a very well-known Chinese company. There is nothing I don't know about in society.
"I am an employee of the Long Group. After being selected to enter the game, I will take on the task of fighting against the Church of Light." The answer is similar to what I guess, otherwise how could I know so much?
"Then aren't you violating the rules? A celebrity in a game like you cannot not attract attention. Will it cause trouble if his identity is known by his opponent?"
"In fact, those Western companies also sent people into the game to try to promote the development of the situation. Everyone knows that as long as everything goes according to the rules of the game, there is no obvious human cheating, and no opinions will be made."
"But even if we know these, it is not of much use. Our disadvantages cannot be reversed." But there is another reason to persevere. Faced with an extremely unfavorable situation, I can't see any turning point.
"Don't be so pessimistic. There are opportunities in the crisis. As long as we persist, we are not without opportunities. After all, we still have to pay attention to balance on the surface. Besides, we have also participated in the game design and it is impossible to form a one-sided situation."
"Oh," I suddenly felt energetic. After all, if I could win, no one would want to lose. "What are the advantages we have?"
"Have you noticed that only players in the Light are our enemies. They have no allies. It is not that easy to change jobs for other professions. According to the system setting, if the strength is not very strong, the success rate of the level five profession will not be too high. Ordinary players must reach level six or seven professions before they can pass, and then slowly start from the intern level. Growing also requires a process, so the number of players in the Light will not increase too much in a short period of time. In addition, the Light Church does not set up a Light Sagittarius.
