The next step is to stand on the battlefield.

According to common sense, there will be no large-scale cities in the abyss, but the reality is exactly the opposite. At least in the order camp, large-scale cities can be found everywhere. For example, the scene of Houji Station, which was once the capital of the 97th floor of the abyss, is not many at the moment.

It has been reduced to complete ruins.

In fact, it is understandable that cities and civilizations appear in the abyss. In a sense, the devil is actually a relatively 'pure' creature. What does purity represent? That is, whether it advocates the chaos that everything returns to chaos or the chaos that everything begins with.

The order of construction is very obvious in the devil.

It is not like human nature, it is gray and pure one color, just like a brightly colored poisonous snake.

Demons in the order camp advocate all orders, whether it is a bright order or an evil order, and are good at finding exploitable "loopholes" or "shortcuts" from various orders and rules, taking advantage of human greed and selfishness.

To seek benefits for themselves and the abyss.

Demons in the order camp advocate construction and have superb artistic taste and elegant behavioral etiquette. Compared with humans, they are 'models' of abiding by promises and contracts. Once the contract is signed, they will strictly abide by the terms, but these terms

It's hard to say what fate 'Party B' will end up with in the end.

Demons from the order camp claim to be 'excellent providers of solutions to life's dilemmas', and will tailor particularly cost-effective and attractive contract terms for all kinds of employers or partners, but such terms are often wrapped in

Sugar-coated poison, they do not hide this. They enjoy admiring the repeated struggles of their employers and partners in hesitation, contradiction, sublimation and degradation of human nature, and they enjoy it.

Okay, let’s get down to business.

The post-excitation station has reached its most critical moment.

The power of the Fourth Disaster has been demonstrated beyond doubt. Several "Collecting Wind" spellcasters came from behind with pale faces as they looked at the tide of "high-level intelligent undead", which overwhelmed the defense line built by the Chaos Demon.

The color-changing monsters and powerful low-level demons are like rocks in the tide, being washed away, crushed, divided, and finally submerged.

After seeing the strength of their employer and understanding what they were designing, the ‘researchers’ had some enlightenment. After returning home, ideas and inspirations came flooding back, and they no longer felt at a loss as before to know where to start.

Take turns to collect stories and continue until the end of the follow-up battle.

For the Mage Tower in the Demonic City, the employer has put forward a lot of new requirements, and some design plans have to be postponed. This is the first time, and even with the self-cultivation of the research nerds, they are a little unhappy.

I feel like my employer changes orders overnight.

Bei Gaoyang smiled apologetically and said: "Everyone, please understand, please understand. When the work is completed, we will pay you generously."

What will be changed this time is to add a camp division module.

That is to say, different symbols are marked for players based on their daily behaviors and choices during the mission.

This symbol is also the camp.

In the past, there were only two major camps in the game, the resistance camp and the enemy camp.

Later, neutral camps, allied camps, etc. were added.

However, the entry of divisions and agents has complicated the situation and content of future games, and the number of players has exceeded one million, millions, and may reach tens of millions... As the saying goes, if the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds.

It is no longer possible to use simple system bans and town ordinances to restrict gameplay behavior as before.

Using laws that all players must abide by is too rigid. Bei Gaoyang instinctively resists putting all thoughts, words, deeds, behaviors and choices in the same order module. That would be too risky and might backfire on him in the future.

.

what to do?

At this time, a more detailed division of camps is imminent.

First of all, the three highest-level divisions of hostile camp, neutral camp, and allied camp are still retained.

Secondly, within the resistance camp, justice, evil, and neutrality are implemented to distinguish and characterize players.

The rebel camp naturally advocates order, so there are order of justice, order of evil, and order of neutrality. Players' actions and choices in the game will affect their respective camp scores. When a certain score is reached, the camp will switch, and at the same time, the counterfeit

Gods are also distinguished in this way. Only players of the same camp can choose gods of the same camp, and vice versa.

The advantage of this is that it can restrain both players and agents. The camp is a "personality" that needs to be managed. It cannot be evil today and have justice tomorrow, thus achieving a very macro-level restriction.

Think about it, an agent is actually run by a state entity, but is classified as orderly evil by the system. How to explain it, how to fool the public and deceive voters?

In reality, there is no one and it is impossible for anyone to set the target for a national entity, but it is possible. It is not easy to manage the character, so what else can be done to destroy the character?

This is a countermeasure adopted by Bei Gaoyang after discussing with Xiao Ai. Try it out first to see how it works.

As for the rebels, the hostile camp will add the "Hostile·" logo, followed by an Order or Chaos logo to indicate their camp, such as [Hostile·Chaotic Evil], which is the devil, white ghost, and fallen of the Chaos camp.

, the logo of the servant army, the Alliance of Human Nations is a logo like [Hostile, Order Evil] or [Hostile, Order Good], but there will be no neutrality.

Neutrality is also reflected in neutral camps and allied camps, such as the abandoned people in the abandoned wasteland, the intelligent races in the fairy forest, the business travelers in the game area of ​​the system, the dark elves drow in the dungeon, the remnants of the centaurs, etc.

Everything has a camp, and everything has rules and regulations to follow, which is more conducive to system induction and control, and also facilitates the extension of more tasks, content and gameplay.

There are so many benefits, just adding a simple module, with the depth of 6 layers of magic network, it is completely insignificant.

After talking about the design requirements for the new module, the 'coolie' who came back from collecting the wind went to work scratching his head. Bei Gaoyang sat on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief. He had been very busy these days.

Who can be the boss, but the boss's job is also very tiring, and he is so busy that he doesn't even have time to meditate and recover.

"Tell me, good news or bad news?"

Nicholas, who had rushed back from Extreme South City, emerged from the shadows at this time, saluted, and said: "There should be spies of the gods at Houji Station, and there are signs of mobilization of the human coalition forces in Extreme South City."

"At this time..." Bei Gaoyang touched his scalp and smiled sadly, "You really know how to seize the opportunity."

After thinking about it for a few minutes.

"Are you sure you can hold them off for a while?", he asked the lich.

Nicholas: "It's hard, unless..."

"Unless the players come back to the battlefield in large numbers from behind?"

"Yes."

"I'm afraid this is their purpose?"

"...We have no other choice. Ji Nan City cannot be defended."

Bei Gaoyang pondered.

It's not impossible to mobilize some players to come back for support, but it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

Although the construction of the 6-layer magic network can be done 'without stopping', it is not suitable to be exposed to violent shocks. It requires a relatively short construction period. It is a coincidence that the coalition of human countries arrived at a few key points.

Maybe their original intention was to test, but unfortunately, they just seized the opportunity.

What can we do?

Calling players back for reinforcements is equivalent to a postponement of the 6th test. This delay can be protracted. Once the fight starts, who knows when it will end. The battlefield situation at that time was far more complicated than it is now, and the intensity may exceed it. After all, there is a 97-layer abyss.

However, on the flank battlefield, the high-level demons from the chaotic camp gave up long ago.

"What do you mean?" One person was trying to figure out the shortcomings, while the other two were trying to figure out the advantages. He asked the lich for his opinion.

Now that Nicholas has a deep understanding of the Magic Network and the players, and also has a deep understanding of the sensitivity at this juncture, he hesitated and said: "Can... try to negotiate first?"

Bei Gaoyang frowned, but he quickly understood what he meant, "You mean... delaying time?"

The lich nodded.

Bei Gaoyang smiled bitterly and said, "I have a good reputation, but it's not convenient for me to show up."

"There is no need for you to come forward. Let the Association of Mages negotiate on your behalf through some private channels. The old guys on the council are very familiar with this. They have already had private connections with the coalition forces."

Bei Gaoyang nodded.

This is a good idea.

It's just that I owe another favor to the Masters Association.

Those old immortals on the council are all foxes who have become spirits. Although they are easy to talk to now, they are almost responsive to requests. But when it is time to show their fangs, they will not be shy at all. They treat themselves and the magic network

, they are very interested in players and even the earth behind them...

Oh, forget it, if you have too much debt, you don't have to worry about too many lice. As long as the Magic Network and the players grow up, what can they do if I default on the debt?

"Let Black Flame...ah, don't go to Hall?"

"It's better for me to go!" Lich volunteered. "Hei Yan and Hall's work cannot be left behind. Now we are racing against time."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

After sending away the lich, Bei Gaoyang looked at the design outline of the 6-layer magic network that had been greatly changed. He always felt that this matter would not be so simple. This timing was too coincidental. If he had not done it earlier, he would not have done it, but this happened.

Time to take action?

Nicholas?

No, not really.

Bei Gaoyang could not think of a reason for the lich to betray him.

The coolies from the Mages Union have just arrived, and Mowang and Xiao Ai are closely monitoring it. It is impossible for Xiao Moyuan to know the details, let alone the minions of the gods!

Is it really a coincidence?

No!

It's better to be cautious.
