The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 172 The Rift Theory of War
Johan Johnson silently nodded behind the storyteller, it seemed that he also knew something inside.

Manid rolled his eyeballs in his sockets, glanced left and right a few times, looked at Zhang Qiang's face, and then smiled and said, "My lord, uh, no, master—"

Zhang Qiang turned his head with his hands behind his back, raised his head and stared at him. There was nothing he could do. Although this guy was a businessman, he had a hulking back and a very mighty appearance. He was just a little bit taller than Elaine and Fatis who were tall, slender and thin. His shoulders are wide and his waist is wide, and he looks very strong, but he hasn't communicated with the other two about his appearance. This guy is born with the appearance of an elephant against a mouse's head and face, and he is sneaky.

"Master, the Calradia continent is said to be chaotic, but it is not chaotic. It is not chaotic. It is because every once in a while, there will be a period of peace that is similar to the time of war."

Zhang Qiang seemed to think of something, but he didn't express it, but continued to listen to him.

Manid continued: "Initiating a war requires financial resources, material resources, and human resources. When all three are satisfied, one party can start a war against the other party. Of course, wars do not start suddenly. , because that's impossible, there will always be some excuses, such as making some troubles on the border between the two countries, and then one side will fight the other aggressively.

If the other party ignores it, it will take longer. This is the gap in the war. Whether you want to start this war or not, you have to start preparing for the upcoming war.

This time is not long, but it may be very long, even exceeding two war initiation cycles.

"War initiation cycle?" Zhang Qiang asked.

"Well, yes, the general period for launching a war is one month or three months. If both sides are ready, this time is very short, a few days or a few hours, because you don't know when the side that is preparing to launch will start. Attacking the opponent, I don’t know whether the side that is forced to prepare for war needs to pre-emptively attack the opponent before it is ready, attacking the opponent, forcing the opponent to fall into a passive counterattack situation, and gaining time for its own side to continue preparing, or gaining the initiative in the war, Standing in the limelight and taking the initiative to end the war, even if one's own side is still weak or not fully prepared for the war, it can decently end a war started by the other side."

Zhang Qiang rubbed his chin, kept his eyes still, and fell into deep thought. It seems that the AI ​​of these NPCs in the game world is still quite high. They all know these war theories and are very good at using them. So they are just a bunch of people who want to get rich or want to play What kind of ending will the refreshing players meet these veterans with rich experience in war?
Will they learn war while fighting?
Or just treat this place as a game field, play, feel uncomfortable, jump out, and stop playing?

Maybe the game company will use various excuses to provoke players to continue playing this game, and they will continue to sell gaming headsets.

But Zhang Qiang knows that there is a certain chance of playing this game. It’s not that once you get injured or seriously injured in the game, it’s nothing, because there are doctors and elixir, which can be cured, but those who fought fiercely on the battlefield or were caught Players who intentionally kill them will definitely die and become vegetative.

In this case, maybe you didn't know it at the beginning, it was just a game, everyone was still in Novice Village, still developing, and didn't officially participate in the hegemony of the Calradia continent, the farthest you could wander around Novice Village, Even those players who run merchants can only resell those low-level equipment in Novice Village before their level has risen.

Xinshou Village has a safe place to go offline, not to mention the town square, just find a random place, just drill in and go offline, and you won't be able to bear much damage.

As the level increased and the demand continued to grow, many people had left Novice Village and spread out in nearby towns. Some even walked between the two, or between villages and towns, and casualties began to appear.

From the time when a newcomer enters the game world and lives in Novice Village, to the town, where two nearby Novice Village players interact and move around, this process takes several months.

When everyone starts to speed up, the level and rank increase, and more appear in the city, the collision between everyone, the struggle with the outlaw camp, or the people of the country prefer to be divorced from the real world. In a state where the control is extremely strict , when more people joined the camp of outlaws, and began to specialize in robbery, doing bad things, and dominating the player world like the Overlord Guild, death inevitably appeared.

This process started a few months after Zhang Qiang came out of Novice Village and became a knight squire a year after the game started.

Perhaps, the game publishing company did not expect that the helmets they released are not like in the past in the computer game world. After the protagonist dies, he is resurrected, the soul is in state, he runs back to pick up the corpse, and then drops some equipment and some experience points. Continue to start leveling crazily, make up for the lost experience and earn money, do tasks to buy those weapons and equipment to re-arm yourself, and then go to the guy who killed him to get back.

Perhaps, the factor of death appeared at the beginning, but everyone has developed the habit of carrying pills with them, replenishing blood volume in time for injuries, and treating them in time. After all, those who can play games at the beginning are game masters. Without going out of Novice Village, when everyone was playing life professions, Death God had no time to talk to them.

Zhang Qiang has experienced the boring, tasteless, and lengthy life of occupations, but he is lucky. In less than a month and a half, he has become a combat occupation, and his low combat effectiveness can be regarded as a combat occupation with combat effectiveness.

Even those players with smart brains and rich experience have to work quietly in the forest and mining farms. Although they also want to get ahead, the maturity of a few fractions of an ax can drive people crazy, so many players They just stopped playing.

It wasn't until the game became popular under the promotion of the development company that people poured into the game and wanted to make money in the game. Most people thought about making money, and very few people thought about playing games and a sense of accomplishment.

These people have good brains, rich game experience, and do not take the usual path, but it is also the unusualness of this group of people that caused their sad ending. They want to challenge higher-level monsters, or level up, and do tasks. There is a price to pay, and even the game company is not prepared for this price, or it is not known.

Now, everyone knows that game death will turn into a vegetable, and the number of people will drop sharply. From the first few thousand people to 3 million people, to the current 1500 million people, this momentum is still decreasing and cannot be stopped.

The remaining players who are determined to make money from the game and want to take risks are the main players in the current player army, and they are also a factor for the game to continue to run. Zhang Qiang can't think of other factors.

Zhang Qiang is worried about the fate of these players who dare to risk death to stay, continue to upgrade, and make money after the big waves wash the sand, including himself, whether they can survive in the world of war with rich cold weapons. This is a challenge and an opportunity.

It is said that the game world is still very profitable. Dewey and his Iron Blood Guild have made a lot of money. The Dynasty Guild is a business-oriented guild that earns more. Although I did not directly make money in the game world, but through the Opportunity, extortion, exchange, and trading, the combination of the three methods also earned more than 1000 million Huaxia coins.

This has to be said, the game's ability to absorb money.

But the dangers are also there, and they are getting more dangerous.

Zhang Qiang shook his head and woke up from deep thinking. It was Francie, a loyal subordinate, who pushed him.

"Master, are you feeling a little uncomfortable, or you can take a rest and leave the manor to us?" Francois asked with concern.

Zhang Qiang nodded. It was time to take a break. Hearing the words of the scholar, Johan Johnson, and Manid, the two countries are still in the middle of a war, and his manor will be safe for a period of time. It is a period of peace. development period.

Manid seemed to have guessed what Zhang Qiang was thinking, and said, "Master, although this is not a time of peace, the Kingdom of Swadia is still at war with the Kingdom of Nord, the Kingdom of Kugit, and most importantly, the Kingdom of Rhodok. state.

However, the war has been going on for more than three months. Generally speaking, the Kingdom of Swadia has the upper hand. The dead camels are bigger than horses. The Kingdom of Kujit has been beaten so hard that we dare not fight. We are at the border between the two countries. If there are no special circumstances, the Kingdom of Kujit may ask King Harlaus to temporarily suspend this meaningless war that caused heavy losses to both sides within a few days.

At this time, what the Kingdom of Swadia is happy to see is that they will withdraw their troops facing Kujit to the border of the Rhodok Kingdom, and have a final decisive battle with the Rhodok Kingdom. As for the Nord Kingdom, the gang The guy who started as a pirate is very cunning. He doesn't want to hit the cavalry troops of the Swadia Kingdom head-on, let alone attack the iron-walled castle of the Swadia Kingdom. They have always been sneak attacks. If my guess is correct , King Harlaus will receive a letter of truce from Nord after defeating the Rhodok Kingdom, which is at an absolute disadvantage in the current war, and the war between the two countries will come to an end. Therefore, we will usher in a few months period of peaceful development. "

Zhang Qiang glanced at Manid, this guy really surprised him, he spoke clearly and logically, as if the war would really end in a very short time as he said.

Seeing the doubt in Zhang Qiang's eyes, the storyteller immediately bowed and said, "My lord, you have just arrived in the Calradia continent, and you may not be familiar with the Calradia continent. What Manid said is true, this It is the law of war in the Calradia continent, as long as there is a heart, and a businessman who wants to make money, he will carefully analyze it and grasp the arrival of every peaceful period."

Seeing the storyteller endorse his own analysis, Manid stretched his neck and raised his head, looking proud.

Zhang Qiang laughed. This guy, with a little achievement, doesn't know his last name. Seeing his pride, he really wanted to go up and kick him, and then tell him, "What are you proud of? Isn't it just that you can analyze a few sentences?" ?"

Thinking about it instead, it's better not to hit me, the only few personal talents I have, and rely on them to protect myself in the future.

In this case, Zhang Qiang also felt that there was nothing wrong with staying in the game, and he was going to go offline to solve real world affairs.

Can't delay any longer.
