Chapter 127: A Xiufu's Invitation(1/2)
The follow-up plan we arranged for Matsumoto Masaki Matsumoto was very successful. As the players who initially revealed the fact that they attacked Matsumoto Masaki Masaki's convoy appeared due to guilt, the subsequent situation gradually became more and more popular in our script. First, Masaki Masaki began to publicize according to my plan and said how much it cost to get the Sifang Zun. Then, when Japanese players felt a pity, Masaki Masaki suddenly pointed the gun of public opinion at the Japanese gods again.
The Yakio Snake and Gaotian Genshin Impact were almost shot while lying down, and were inexplicably pulled into the forefront of public opinion. There is a very interesting situation in it, a situation that we have never paid attention to, that is, the gods seem to have not many windows of public opinion.
Player guilds can use many methods to guide or create some arguments they want. This behavior is similar to the reality, with various methods of execution and excellent results. However, the gods seem to be able to interfere with the player's public opinion in a very limited way. Therefore, it can be said that the gods are almost a congenital vulnerable group in public opinion wars. We guess this may be related to the system's restrictions on the gods, but no matter what, the gods cannot cope with Masaki Matsumoto's accusations.
The Yagi Orochi and the Gaotian Genshin Impact clan, who had been fully accused, were only a little disgusted with this because the war between them did affect Japan's expression of foreign combat power, so they also felt that they were not supposed to be, but they didn't care much. However, the gods themselves didn't care, but the players were very concerned. During this period of mutual attacks, Japanese players have always existed as the main force. Moreover, because the fighting power of the gods and players is not equal, the players sacrificed the most in the conflict, which caused the Japanese players group to actually not get benefits in this civil war between the gods, but instead lost some benefits.
For players, the gods in the game and the belief in reality are completely different, so few players really believe in the gods in the game. They follow the gods just for equipment and various rewards. To put it bluntly, they are mercenaries. If you give money and ask mercenaries to help you fight, it will be fine, but if you don’t get any benefits, you will have to pay for ammunition. Which mercenary, who is willing to do this with such an employer, is willing to do it with him?
Originally, if Matsumoto Masaki did not have this incident, the Japanese players' opinions on Yakio Orochi and Takata Genshin Impact Clan were only at a simple tendency stage. It had not really exploded. However, after Masaki Masaki clarified this matter, many players began to realize that this kind of war is very bad for Japanese players, and because most of them have actually lost something because of this war, the rebound mood at this time became extremely strong.
Because of this kind of emotional rebound of players and the intentional guidance of Masaki Matsumoto, this incident can almost be said to be in a state of response.
In order to make Matsumoto Masaki become the leader of Japanese players, the team we specially equipped him with were specialized in publicity and offensives. These people are professionals. They are not amateur players. They are actually media. In the game, they just changed the information media carrier, but those basic concepts will not be problematic. Therefore, these people have done a very good job in publicity and offensives. They can not only accurately control the direction of public opinion, but also can even grasp a rough range of strength.
With such a sophisticated team cooperation, Matsumoto Masaga almost instantly regained the Japanese player's voice that was lost due to the excessive intervention of the Gaotian Genshin Impact and Yagi Orochi during this period. After obtaining the right to speak, Masaga Masaga did not stop there, but continued to use public opinion offensives to inspire Japanese players to find the mysterious force that first attacked the convoy, and expressed in secret that he hoped to find out the reason why the other party attacked the convoy.
If we put it bluntly, there is actually no problem. I thought that if this was the fact, Matsumoto Masaki should have had such a reaction. Of course, this is not the case. The convoy transported Chinese national weapons and was attacked was just a lie we made up, so Masaki Masaki's actual purpose was to use the majority of Japanese players to help us find the cause of the leak.
When China first founded the People's Republic of China, it liked to mobilize the people and launch the power of people's war. At that time, when the People's Republic of China was just founded and the domestic situation was still unstable, this measure did play a very huge role. Many professional spies lurking in the country were often discovered and reported by some old men and women, which shows how powerful the effect of the People's War is. As long as people across the country are willing to cooperate and actively implement it, it is too simple to investigate what matters.
Now Matsumoto Masaga has successfully regained the attention of Japanese players through this fictional lie, so his wish was quickly executed by Japanese players from all over the country. With the efforts of these players, the hidden news in each of them was quickly dug out.
"President." I had been back to Aisinger for more than a day and suddenly received a communication from Masaga Matsumoto.
After I received the communication in the conference hall, I immediately saw the projection of Masaki Matsumoto. "What's the matter with me in the middle of the night?"
Although it was already past four in the morning in Japan, Matsumoto Masaga was obviously quite excited. He said excitedly: "President, you are still awesome! The method you taught me is really effective!"
"You contacted me in the middle of the night just to tell me this?"
"No, I want to tell you that the reason for your whereabouts has been investigated."
I was stunned when I heard this result. "Is the investigation done? So fast?"
"Well, I didn't expect it to be so soon, but I can't resist the players in Japan now helping us check."
I nodded and said, "Then how did we expose it?"
"It's actually very simple." Matsumoto Masaga said: "After you got off the car and entered that forest, you happened to be discovered by a magic pet from a high-level player. The player's level is relatively high. Recently, it seems that he is planning to enter the mountains and forests there to level up, but you also know that the place is more dangerous and he has no choice, so he sent a magic pet to help him see the situation inside, and whether he can level up safely there."
"So the demon pet didn't find the monster, but he found us, right?"
Masaga Matsumoto nodded and said, "The other party just happened to know you, and he saw all of you through the eyes of the demon pet."
I'm not surprised that the other party was not discovered by the opponent's magic pet. At that time, although Klis Dena had a large-scale detection technique, you should know that the place was originally a monster area, and the monsters in the reconnaissance technique did not know how many times they entered and exited within the perception range, so unless a monster really rushed towards us, Klis Dena wouldn't care too much. If a player was approaching us at that time, we would definitely find it. The key is the magic pet, as long as there is no battle. The player information prompted by the system cannot be seen. We can't know whether the magic pet or the wild monster are approaching us.
"It is understandable to be discovered in this way. But even if the other party discovers us, why would he attack the convoy you sent?" I asked a question.
Masaga Matsumoto explained: "This player not only saw you. The one who entered the mountain was his magic pet, but he saw you, while he himself was on the road outside the mountain, and he happened to see our team. Because he wanted to cover you, the whereabouts of the team were a bit weird. In addition, the strength of the Asian Games team was a little over the standard, so it aroused his suspicion."
"If you just doubt, you shouldn't attack your convoy rashly, right? You are now the leader of Japanese players, and you just attack your convoy because of suspicion. This is a bit too much, right? Besides, the one who attacked you seemed to be Ghost Nobunaga? How did he get involved? Could it be that the person who discovered us was Ghost Nobunaga?"
"No, but it's almost the same." Masaga Matsumoto explained: "That player is not a member of Nobunaga's, but he was once one of the supporters of Nobunaga's supporters. Even now, he still retains a relatively good relationship with Nobunaga's. He is a hardcore supporter of Nobunaga. However, he has a relatively bottom line and has never joined Nobunaga's Ghost Hand Alliance. After discovering your whereabouts, he happened to see Nobunaga and told Nobunaga the strange phenomenon he encountered this time."
Matsumoto Masaga said this and started to interfere: "That is to say, Nobunaga Ghostou heard from this player about the strange convoy of your guild, and then discovered our existence. Although the player himself was a little suspicious, he didn't think about that direction at all. However, Nobunaga Ghostou had already suspected that there was a connection between us, so he would connect the two things and order to attack the convoy you sent."
Masaga Matsumoto confirmed again: "That's right. Nobunaga Ghostou was a little suspicious, but we used tricks to trick the past several times before, so now he is not sure whether we were in contact before. However, as long as he has doubts, he will not give up. It is not a big deal for the convoy to attack our convoy. At that time, he didn't know that the convoy would transport Chinese national weapons. Of course, the convoy did not transport national weapons, but it is certain that he was not rushing to this at that time. If he knew that the result of the matter would be so serious, he wouldn't have done this."
I nodded in agreement. Matsumoto Masaga's analysis made sense. Nobunaga Ghostou had originally doubted what the relationship was. This time he was just a sneak attack on a convoy. It was not a big deal, so he naturally would not take it seriously. Therefore, he had no burden for appointing personnel to attack the convoy. However, after the attack, he knew that the matter was getting worse, because Masaga Masaga publicly claimed that the convoy was transporting Chinese national weapons. As long as players who understand what the national weapons represent would not regard this as a trivial matter.
"Now that I already know that it is not an internal person who leaks the secret, don't worry too much."
Masaga Matsumoto nodded and asked, "I am not worried about this matter anymore, but how should I deal with the attack of this convoy? Will it be calmed down?"
After thinking about it for a while, I still felt that this matter was not good. I asked Matsumoto Masaga to make the matter bigger but to investigate why our whereabouts were exposed. Of course, the more important goal was to remove ourselves from this matter. We cannot let the connection between us and Masaga Masaga be discovered. This is all incident handling. As the president, I can only decide on such matters by myself. However, whether to calm the incident down is not something I have to make the decision alone. This is a matter of whether to make the decision alone. This is a matter of concerning the entire situation in Japan and a strategic issue. I can decide on tactical issues alone, and of course it is better for the staff team to discuss the strategic issues.
"You wait a moment, I'll contact the staff team to ask what to do."
"Okay. I'll wait."
After connecting with the staff team through the Military God, I briefly talked about this matter. The staff members of our guild were fast enough and roughly discussed the results in a few minutes. After listening to their opinions, I became angry with Rose. Of course, I also contacted Hongyue and Ying. After unifying the opinions with everyone, I contacted Matsumoto Masaki again.
“Did you decide?”
"Well. Our opinions are quite consistent. You are not suitable to kill Nobunaga Ghostou, but you can't just let it go this time. You have to teach Nobunaga Ghostou a lesson and get the actual benefits."
"Is there any plan for how to operate?"
"There is no specific plan. You can do it yourself anyway. But remember, you must let Nobunaga Hitoo publicly admit that he did this matter. He should further blacken his image in the minds of Japanese players. He also wants him to apologize publicly."
"Why must he apologize publicly?"
"This is the meaning of rose. The main purpose is to crack down on the blind worship of Ghostou Nobunaga's loyalists. Let him admit that he sent someone to do this will only allow Japanese players with brains to see his true face clearly, but those loyalists are indiscriminate. The reason for their loyalty is often just personality worship. No matter whether the person does it wrong or does it right, this kind of worship is often difficult to hit. However, if Ghostou Nobunaga admits that he has made a mistake and therefore apologizes publicly, it is equivalent to his own
The behavior is damaging his personal image. If a Japanese player continues to worship him blindly, he will fall into a dead cycle. If they want to die, Nobunaga Nobunaga, they must admit that Nobunaga is just an ordinary person who will make mistakes. But if they admit this, then he will have no value for loyalty. Therefore, these loyalty must change their thinking style, and as long as they change their thinking style, there is at least 50% chance that they will lose their loyalty to Nobunaga, and our purpose will be achieved."
“It sounds quite complicated.”
"Rose also said that this is quite complicated, mainly psychological things. Anyway, you just need to know how to arrange it like this."
Masaga Matsumoto nodded and said, "I understand this, but how do you get the actual benefits you mentioned?"
"In terms of actual benefits, it is not to ask you to take something, but to let Nobunaga Ghostou give you a promise and ask him to publicly guarantee that if you have any external action plan to use him next time, he needs to support you in completing this action together."
Matsumoto Masaga screamed as soon as he heard my words. "Boss, are you too dark, aren't this guy? This guy, Ghost Nobunaga, is so unlucky. He has to help you do things if you cheated, and he has to help you count money if you are sold!"
"What are you and ours, don't you have your share?"
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, I'll do it, right?"
After Masaki Matsumoto retreated, I also closed the communication, but even this point I couldn't rest, so I continued to work hard.
I left the conference hall of Aisinger and went directly to the Heavenly Court. I asked the Heavenly Court to help us unite against the invasion of the Yaki Snake. Now this matter seems to happen in a short time, so I have to say hello, so I can't always let the Heavenly Court stand by 24 hours a day, right? No matter how good the Heavenly Court has to have a relationship with us, it is not an organization. The necessary politeness is still necessary.
After the Jade Emperor learned about this, he told me some long-term arrangements. After all, the invasion of the Yakio Snake was only delayed and he did not give up. So he still had to be careful, but he didn't have to be so rush.
After communicating the information from the Jade Emperor, I ran to Germany without stopping. Ashufude originally agreed to be our reserve team, but now our battle is not necessary, and this reserve team is not used for the time being, so we still have to say hello. In order to be our reserve team, most players must ensure that they are online for a long time, and they cannot take on large-scale tasks during this period. They cannot engage in guild wars or something. If they are about to start a war with the Yakira, it would be fine to keep Ashufude in this state for a while. Anyway, the time will not be too long. But now, this time has become an unknown number. We can't let the entire Iron Crusader wait like this, right? Even if they are willing to wait, how should we repay this favor? Therefore, it is still necessary to notify the temporary release of the alarm.
"What do you mean is that we still need to exist as a reserve team, but the time is not certain for the time being?" Ashufude confirmed after hearing my words.
I nodded and answered with certainty: "Yes, I can't use it for the time being. However, we don't know when Yakio Osaka is going crazy. Moreover, I guess this time will not be too long. He can only be quiet for another month or two at most."
"In this case, at least we are free for the time being." Ashufude suddenly became excited as he said. Then he asked, "So can you be free for this period of time?"
"What are you going to do?" Seeing Ashufude leaning up excitedly, I instinctively leaned back.
Asu Fude said with a very slutty smile: "That... I happen to have two super-level mission scrolls in my hand. What..."
"I have time. But not much. You'd better tell me the length of the task, otherwise I can't help. Also, there is not much power that can be mobilized in our guild at present. If you just let me come alone, I'll have no problem, but if you want someone to help, I'm not sure!"
"That's it!" Ashufude thought for a moment and asked, "Can Kris Dena come?"
"Chris Dena? Do you need her help?"
Ashufude nodded vigorously and said, "With her in this mission, she can at least reduce the difficulty level. To be honest, she is more useful in this mission than you."
"Then I'll just lend her to you for two days, why do you have to bring me with you?"
"I just said that her usefulness is greater than you. I didn't say that you are useless!" Ashufude explained: "This task is more troublesome, so you or Kris Dena alone can't do it. You must also have someone else's help. Everyone has special uses in this task."
I thought about it and asked, "How long will the task process take?"
"I'm not sure about this for the time being. But if nothing unexpected happens, it can be done in one or two days."
"What if something happens?"
"That's only three or four days. I won't have much impact on you, right?"
"It's acceptable. Kris Dena and I can come to help. What kind of people do you want? I can see if there is a suitable candidate."
Ashufude thought for a while and said, "We also need a teleportation technique, preferably a short-distance teleportation, and the consumption is very low, so it is best to use it frequently."
"We have such people, too. Is there anything else?"
"No need, there are only seven people allowed in the mission. There are four of us, three of you, and you just arrived at the mission limit."
I nodded and asked, "When will it start?"
"Just find all the people. In order to serve as a reserve for you, I have settled the entire guild in the past few days. It's okay if I don't need my command in the short term."
"Then I'll let the military gods call people here."
"I'll go and call us."
After confirming that we did this task, we immediately took action. Ashufude quickly ran to find his team members, and I was waiting for the personnel to arrive here while reading the mission introduction. To be honest, this task is really not very complicated.
In fact, the difficulty of this task itself is not very large. The key is that there are too many restrictions and the task requirements are too strict.
First of all, this task requires seven players to participate in the task, no more or less.
Originally, it would be easy to find seven people to participate. But the key is that there are additional instructions at the end of the task, indicating that the place at the end of the task requires personal joint efforts to complete it. That is to say, before meeting the last boss, no one in the team cannot die. As long as one is lost, the task will directly fail, because there is a special mechanism in the end, seven people must operate it together. What? You said you can use summoned creatures instead? Of course I know this method, but unfortunately, it is clearly stated on the task scroll that the entire process of the task limits summoning and space items. Whether it is a magic pet or a summoning creature, it cannot be summoned, and even the items are limited. It is best to take out something in advance and carry it on your body with the physical bag. Otherwise, you don’t expect to use these things after entering the task.
It can be said that once this limit is released, many of our abilities will be sealed, otherwise, this kind of task will not be difficult at all.
I was watching the mission introduction here, and the door outside was suddenly pushed open. Three players followed him into the room, and it was obvious that these were the people who participated in the mission together.
I know one of the three people Ashford found, which is Alice, Ashford's wife. Although this blonde and blue-eyed beauty has a sweet baby face, her plate armor shows that her profession is a Teutonic warrior in Europe for its super attack power. This profession is basically a bulldozer. Not to mention defense, there are almost few professions that can fight against them in terms of attack power. Before the blood volume bottomed out, Teutonic warriors were almost invincible. In general professions, they had no other way except to fight.
Perhaps because he noticed my gaze, Ashufude explained a little embarrassedly: "Zi Ri, don't look at us like this! Although Alice is my wife, I'm not cheating. She is really amazing."
I shook my head and said, "I'm just helping anyway, so the staff will arrange it as you wish. It's not my business to complete it."
"President Zi Ri. Are you doubting my strength?"
To be continued...
