My Players Are So Fierce

Chapter 85:



The young lady has a reserved personality.

Although her heart has been cracked open after a series of setbacks, she did not continue to reveal more of her true thoughts. After exchanging a few heartfelt words with Murphy, she decisively left to prepare for what she had to do next.

Murphy understood Femis’ conflicted mindset at the moment.

At least until the trouble in the Blood Vulture Halls was resolved, don’t expect her gloomy aura to recover.

After all, this was a ruthless act of killing her own father!

Unless her mother’s surname was Proudmoore and she was planning to change her name to Jaina, even a slightly normal person wouldn’t run around with a smile on their face to sharpen their blades.

Murphy himself didn’t have much energy to focus on the young lady’s journey of the heart.

In the two days of preparation, he had many things to do. First, he needed to complete the crafting of his Tomb Badge so he could undergo a second job change.

The basic job of Blood Vulture Swordsman was no longer powerful enough for the current version, he needed to increase his strength. As for the sub-job of Spirit Apprentice, Murphy wasn’t worried about that job change.

Tris, being a Spirit Sovereign, would help him get it done.

However, before going to the now quiet ruins of Kadman City to search for the Great Tomb, Murphy first spent some time on the forum completing the “new version” announcement.

After all, the upcoming task was a major one, and he needed to let his little players prepare.

Of course, there was also the recruitment of new players.

The 20 test slots Murphy had just received were gone in less than a day, and there was no choice, the current situation required more cannon fo…err, more otherworld warriors to fill the ranks.

Let’s solve this life-and-death problem first, then we can talk about the meticulous training of the little players.

The new announcement from the development team and the test team naturally received enthusiastic discussion from the little players after it was released, especially from the 27 little players who had tragically died in the vampire extermination battle this morning.

Still in the resurrection process with nothing to do, they were almost the first to discover the official post.

It was still in the usual formal and concise style:

【《Reality Realm》Alpha 1.1 Closed Beta Version Update Announcement:

Yo, passionate and professional testers, how’s it going? Thanks to you guys constantly creating trash posts in the feedback area day and night, putting pressure on the test team members, they have finally taught themselves to view putting a knife to the developers’ necks as an effective way to improve work efficiency.

Under such fresh and unconventional “encouragement to update”, the development team has finally managed to implement a new batch of game content.

Specific update details are as follows:

1. Faction and Reputation system implemented.

As you players venture deeper into《Reality Realm》, all sorts of characters and forces have started to notice you greedy yet brave little fellows.

Try to interact with them.

Gain their goodwill or view them as enemies, learn and plunder new powers to arm yourselves, so you can go further in this cruel and barbaric world.

But please note, players, that the reputation system in《Reality Realm》is complex and realistic, and the official team will not provide a guidance manual. All secrets related to reputation must be explored by yourselves.

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

The reputation factions open in the current version are:

Kadman City Survivor Camp, Blood Vulture Clan, White Oak Battalion, Goldflower Kingdom.

2. The initial setup of the closed beta job system has been completed.

The remnant forces of the Avalon Church AKA the “Old Faith”, the White Oak Battalion of Witch Hunters, have entered the recently disaster-stricken Transia, carrying the mission of King Louis.

Not only do they help players eliminate potential threats after setting foot in this disaster-stricken land of darkness, but they also intend to spread the ancient powers and conservative doctrines of that faction, which has been extinct for ten years, among the new groups.

From the time the new version goes online, players who reach【Neutral Friendly】reputation with the White Oak Battalion can go to their camp and learn the true essence of natural powers from these Witch Hunter warriors.

But please note, players, that《Reality Realm》does not have the unrealistic game mechanics of re-spec or re-rolling, which goes against the principles of realism and hardcore gameplay. So please choose your job path carefully.

However, the development team can guarantee that there will be no such thing as “underpowered” jobs in this realistic world.

So, if you don’t know what to choose, just boldly go and PY with those Witch Hunter brothers and sisters. The powers you’ve painstakingly acquired will definitely not let you down in future battles.

Of course, with subsequent version updates, more job and power systems will be added to the game, so the innately environment-destroying pyromaniac Naisinvari Madmen who clash with the nature faction can lie dormant and wait patiently for now.

Developer Tip!

Although the classic job system may not be as cool as the exclusive job system, their power in terms of performance and destructive force, when combined with exquisite skills, will not be inferior to exclusive jobs.

3. Instance and group instance testing process initiated.

Instances!

Since this wonderful concept was born, it has quickly become a standard feature of all successful and unsuccessful games.

Although we strive to make《Reality Realm》infinitely close to the real world in every respect, in order to ensure the gaming experience for players, after constant feedback, the development team has finally decided to compromise and modify the original plan.

For this, I will announce to our lovely little players with an excited and grateful heart that the instance feature will be officially added to the game in subsequent versions.

Currently, this system is still in the design testing phase, and test players need to follow the footsteps of the main storyline NPCs to continuously advance the plot, so as to help the development team better design instance values.

To this end, we are specially launching a large-scale test instance《Advance into the Blood Vulture Halls》in two days!

Please don’t get too excited yet, dear little players. The information that can currently be revealed about this large-scale instance is…it’s very difficult! No, extremely, extremely, extremely difficult!

Although our very principled development team was forced to adjust the original plan, this does not mean that this cunning and wicked bunch of programmers will give up so easily.

They plan to adopt the “Epic Story Mode” to design the instances of《Reality Realm》!

This means that before you can officially unlock instances that you can infinitely grind, you must first help the storyline NPCs complete the initial raid of the instance.

Only when an event is successfully recorded in history can latecomers use the mysterious spirit magic to relive the experiences of the forerunners.

Because the little players who successfully raid the instance will become interactable NPCs in the official instance, in order to avoid causing adverse effects and incorrect guidance for subsequent players, the development team kindly suggests that little players please dress appropriately when doing instances, thank you~

4. Achievement system implemented.

There’s not much to introduce about this. Since instances have been added, implementing an achievement system to record the game lives of little players seems quite reasonable, doesn’t it?

Oh, yes, we’ve made a very thoughtful change!

The rare achievements little players obtain in the game will be displayed as icons on the forum and group chat. After you’ve earned enough honors, you can customize your achievement icons according to your preferences, just like a certain chivalric order.

Such a thoughtful feature not only satisfies the desire of veteran players to show off their achievements but also allows new players to instantly recognize the true experts in a crowd, killing two birds with one stone.

Shouldn’t you hurry up and thank the programmer monkeys in the development team?

It’s said that scars are a warrior’s medal, and now, you can finally have your own medals too!

5. Optimized for a more realistic physics engine, and added more interactive intelligent role-playing NPCs and random events.

6. Fixed a small number of bugs.】

This official post sincerely announced the new content that will be released, making veteran players excited and encouraged. On one hand, it was because the increased playable content would enhance the gaming experience.

On the other hand, it was because in this “war” between players and the development team, they seemed to have won a small battle.

Was it because their constant feedback finally made the stubborn development team compromise?

Cool!

While the veteran players were leaving messages of celebration under the post, the new players who had just obtained test qualifications but had not received the game helmets were bewildered.

That’s right.

Without Murphy’s knowledge, the game forum of《Reality Realm》had become accessible through devices other than the game helmet connection.

In a sense, this was the true “major game update”. It was as if an invisible hand had quietly patched the entire system.

But only those who had received test invitation codes could access this page. Otherwise, no matter how they tweaked the accelerator or messed with their computer settings, they could only get a 404 error message.

This strange phenomenon naturally drew the attention of some curious little fellows. At this moment, in Lumina’s private group, a few super-intelligent girls were fervently discussing the matter.

SwordSaintAshina: 【”@Lumina Yanghen, I got a test slot! I’ll be able to see the so-called next-gen super game you’ve been raving about soon.

Wait for me to get online, and you, the pro, can show me around then.”】

LuminaYanghen: 【”??? How did you get a slot? I’m still reading the update announcement here. Don’t rush, let me summarize the content of the new version first.”】

SwordSaintAshina: 【”I just read that post, o(╥﹏╥)o, I haven’t even entered the game but already behind you guys by one version, crying.

But what’s the deal with this game’s server? Why can we only access that weird URL after getting a test slot?

Also, a few of my friends tried to hack it a few days ago.”】

LuminaYanghen: 【”Damn! Didn’t I tell you not to mess around? If you guys break the server, how are we going to play?! Hey, don’t think you can act recklessly just because your family is rich.

Just by looking at the developer’s strength, you can tell this game is a super project. Be careful your hacking activities don’t get you into trouble.”】

SwordSaintAshina: 【”Relax, relax, little Lumina, how could I possibly do such a dangerous thing myself when I’m so smart? I tricked some weird strangers online to do it, so even if they trace it back, it won’t lead to me.

But those unlucky guys’ devices are pretty much ruined.

Apparently, as soon as they started trying to hack, their computer systems started having issues.

One guy’s laptop battery even exploded, luckily no one got hurt. Oh, and after that failed intrusion attempt, this URL became what it is now.

Only test players can log in, while others entering the URL can only get a 404 message.

I really suspect that the developers must have used some sort of advanced identity encryption to achieve this. Hey, if my parents didn’t forbid me from overworking recently, I’d still be interested in thoroughly investigating it.

By the way! @Everyone, who else in the group got an invitation code? Let’s get online and play the game together!”】

LadyAqua: 【”Don’t be silly, I still need to pick up my son and daughter from school, and I need time to make my loving husband’s breakfast, lunch, and dinner too. When do I have time to play games with you kids? What about Concrete?

Haven’t seen her online for several days.”】

LuminaYanghen: 【”Seems like Concrete Sister has been working on a project recently, I haven’t seen her online for a few days either.”】

FatalOrchidHuahua: 【”@Sword Saint Ashina @Lumina Yanghen, weird, why did I suddenly get an express delivery? After opening it, it’s a strange black helmet, is this the game connection device you were talking about?”】

LuminaYanghen: 【”You got one too? Wow, Orchid is really lucky. Just like before, but is it strange to get an express delivery? Official peripherals like this definitely have to be sent through logistics channels to reach you.

Anyway, enough of that, hurry up and put on the helmet so we can play together.

I’ve been lonely enough by myself, and I have to deal with that muscle freak Little Pomegranate clinging to me all day. You guys hurry and come help me.

That’s it, see you in the game!”】

At this moment. Orchid, who had just said she got the game helmet in this high IQ group, put down her phone.

She adjusted her snow goggles, pulled up the collar of her cold weather jacket, carefully checked the professional camera hanging around her neck, and then stared blankly at the vast whiteness before her.

At the end of her field of vision, she could still see a bunch of adorably clumsy penguins queuing up to jump into the floating ice.

In this icy Antarctic landscape, Miss Orchid, a professional photographer, world traveler, and writer, looked at the recently opened express package and the black game helmet inside with a blank expression.

Damn it!

Of course I know express deliveries are a thing!

But could you find me a logistics company that can deliver to the Antarctic expedition camp?

This wasn’t her first time traveling to Antarctica, but this kind of weird situation was the first. She had just come out of her tent and saw an ordinary express package sitting in the snow, nearly scaring her to death!

“This Alpha company”

Miss Orchid bent down, picked up the helmet, and said in a puzzled voice:

“What’s their background?”

At the same time, on the other side of the ocean in a certain laboratory, “Concrete Heart”, who hadn’t been online in the social group for several days, was also frowning in confusion as she pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses.

In front of her was a professional-grade data tracking and positioning device, and this expensive military-grade equipment was currently emitting strange noises and puffs of smoke.

Its display screen was reflecting a 404 page tag with a snowy interference view.

“This Alpha company”

Sister Concrete covered her eyes, her head aching terribly, and said:

“What’s their origin? Damn, I’ll have to add another item to this month’s equipment loss.”
