Chapter 190: Chapter 137: The Counterattack of the NPC (Part 2)_2


    “`


    Some of the more radical yers expressed that this game is too thrilling!


    The predictable gamey no longer satisfies them, they want to see yers beating up the whole world, they want to see rivers of blood!


    However, some sensible yers have shown a bit of concern.


    Although they know that Fang Cheng is a genius programmer whose advanced artificial intelligence is several steps ahead of what’s avable on the market,


    from the game’s current behavior, it’s clear that “The Supreme One”‘s NPCs are unmistakably heading towards war.


    In “The Supreme One”, no character is isted; they are all connected to the world as if they were living people, forming a talking world.


    But once war breaks out, this interaction will grow a hundredfold, and the data load on the servers may increase by two orders of magnitude, which is a tremendous challenge for both the software and the servers.


    If mishandled, the entire world could copse into a chaotic mess, which is undoubtedly a challenge for the much-anticipated Fang Cheng Studio.


    Unlike these yers, outstanding producers see ambition and dominance.<div>


    Unlike minor siege battles, this is a true historical war epic, a demonstration of one’s own strength. If sessful, Fang Cheng Studio’s reputation will be greatly enhanced.


    Even if they fail, the courage they showed alone is worthy of praise.


    Nevertheless, many in the gaming industry still secretly hope they fail, so they might recruit some excellent employees.


    The impending war between NPCs and yers is brewing, and various discussions in the real world are starting to ferment; the official media even dedicated a section to introduce the causes and consequences of the entire affair, with Chen Rang naturally being the writer, and he and thepany he works for received a hefty exposure.


    As it was an invitation from the official media, Chen Rang went through extensive offline interviews and consulted various parties. After presenting the causes and consequences, he roughly restored the truth.


    [In the process of yers chasing the title of First Under Heaven, they inevitably affected the interests of some NPCs. Their representative is Zhao Qin.]


    [This mechanism must have existed for a while, as I have not seen any updates. This indicates it’s not a whim but a premeditated n by Fang Cheng Studio.]


    [Unfortunately, I couldn’t interview employees at Fang Cheng Studio, as they said it might involve overtime and suggested that I interview them after the Lantern Festival. So, they’re on holiday until after the Lantern Festival, huh! Editor, take note of this! It’s someone else who miserably forces people to work overtime starting from the third day of the Lunar New Year! I’m not deleting this sentence; if it’s deleted, I’m not writing anymore.]


    [Due to the existence of special mechanisms, yers are bound to trigger this process in their challenge for First Under Heaven. This process will significantly change the previous gamey, making yers focus more onbat with NPCs and cooperation from all sides, and the original challenge for First Under Heaven will be secondary.]


    [This transformation is a big challenge, but just like what the game developers often do, they like to do it. I guess it’s because it’s cool.]


    [There have been signs of this before, hinting at different yers engaging in different industries. With this in mind, even if yers be enemies with Da Liang, we have enough skills to face the onught from Da Liang. Thinking about it, it feels quite thrilling! It would just be nice to let us know in advance next time, but it seems less thrilling if known beforehand.]


    [To be honest, I am quite envious of this state of making games. They cater to yers, but they don’t pander to yers. Although they might fail, most of the time it’s a pleasant surprise.]


    [Lastly, I want to say, I really admire you, Fang Cheng Studio! Thank you for the Mukuai you sent over, my child loves it especially! This sentence can’t be deleted either, if it’s gone, I won’t write anymore.]


    Having read Chen Rang’s manic report, Fang Cheng didn’t know what to say anymore.


    Staring at Dustfire, he saw that yers were already looking forward to war.


    Over the past month, they had been honing their techniques, learning various skills, familiarizing themselves with the entirety of Da Liang, and developing their characters into talents of various professions based on their interests.


    Now was the time to mobilize their characters.


    Looking at the Dustfire that was glowing a bruised red, Fang Cheng sighed once again.


    “`<div>


    He had already started to be wary of yers causing trouble and had even listed the most troublesome ones as his key focus.


    He had been paying attention to yers’ conditions all along and even spent some time with one of the most troublesome yers, Xiemen Waidao.


    But still, he had failed to prevent it.


    Yet who could have expected the backstabbing toe from an NPC?<div>


    The title “The Supreme One” entailed some of the hidden arrangements in this world, and perhaps this was also one of the creator’s ns as this world’s countermeasure, serving as the final barrier against outsiders coveting treasures.


    What was thought to at least sustain a year’s game has now changed color due to various reasons, truly a matter to sigh over.


    Knowing he had failed again, Fang Cheng came to terms with it.


    Since he had failed, he might as well join the yers in the game to get a close look at these yers and see what they really wanted to do.


    Failure is the mother of sess, and the experience of failure is the nourishment for the next attempt. All he needed to do now was consume itpletely.


    Havingposed his emotions, Fang Cheng logged back into the game to start a new journey.


    Not long after Zhao Qin gave the order, Qiu Yu sensed that something was amiss.


    yers in the game were easily identified, although others couldn’t see the ID above their heads. If someone appeared suddenly and had little expression, or they became anxious during events but kept a calm face, then they were undoubtedly Aliens.


    Besides, there were many other small characteristics, such as asionally bouncing around while walking, swinging a new weapon a few times on the spot before swiftly changing it, and then swinging it again, or repetitive question-asking during conversations in search of supposed hidden side quests.


    Even if pursued, these behaviors would be exhibited, serving as the best tools to identify Aliens.


    After reading thetest reports and noticing the unfriendly nces from people around, Qiu Yu knew she had been exposed.


    Capturing an Alien was worth five hundred coins, equivalent to two months’ ie, which made somemoners especially keen on capturing Aliens.


    Based on the intelligence shared within therge yer groups, he knew that the yers had decided to gather in the north and then use it as a base to develop before advancing to the south, storming into Da Liang’s imperial city with the intent to rid the emperor of “evil” ministers by executing Zhao Qin, that scoundrel!<div>


    The north might be covered in snow, but with supernatural forces present in this world, some yers had already mastered advanced skills in Taoism. Although their skill levels weren’t high, they could still perform simple spells like Dustfire.


    And some yers over level 40 had demonstrated extraordinary traits of their advanced skills, using supernatural powers to alter the environment, making the harsh northernnds somewhat hospitable.


    But the current difficulty was how to escape.


    Not long after the orders to hunt down the Aliens were issued, a group of Taoists from Da Liang shut down the Teleportation Array.


    Looking from afar, Qiu Yu saw that these Taoists didn’t seem like living beings but more like puppets or the like.


    Taking into ount that the level of the First Under Heaven Taoist’s Taoism had reached 60, he must possess all kinds of incredible Divine Skills, and this was probably one of them.


    Knowing the Teleportation Array was unusable, she thought of escaping bynd, but there were many soldiers guarding the city gates, with yers being arrested from time to time, and then dismantled into blocks by the prison guards.


    With no ess to the Teleportation Array, no way out of the city, and all the surrounding NPCs being low-level, he couldn’t even incite them to create a disturbance.


    Although the Morals Aid Group was active inside Da Liang, rescuing people, they were few in number and couldn’t help here for the time being.


    What should be done now?
