Little Feather was probably the player with the least interest in the new version in Viva Core.
He and Xia Shan were the type of players who liked building things more than fighting. But this kind of construction party player … The joy of playing the game came not only from the sense of accomplishment after building things, but also from showing off their work in front of other players.
When Brandt Island was first released, most of the players in Viva Core were invested in the construction of the stronghold. Little Feather felt that it was the most interesting period of time he had played Holy Ghost.
After the initial construction of the foothold, he would take screenshots and post them on the forum. He would also record the process of the foothold's construction into a video and upload it to YouTube. Then, he would watch the bullet screen with comments such as' awesome 'and' someone else's Holy Spirit foothold '.
Little Feather always felt a sense of joy and accomplishment from the bottom of his heart.
But Holy Ghost's version was updated too quickly.
Now that the conflict on Brandt Island had calmed down, the occasional Lord-tier monsters that spawned in the Spirit Vein Forest were quickly killed by the new players.
These monsters might not even see the stronghold of the major guilds, let alone attack the city. They directly became materials and EXP for the players.
This also made the stronghold fortifications that Little Feather built a little useless.
Little Feather didn't mention these things. He also didn't know who to tell. Now he was busy building houses for the newly recruited NPCs in the stronghold.
There were already 27 NPCs in Viva Core. Apart from helping the players with farming and smelting metal, their biggest function was to collect the players' hearts.
But it might be Little Feather's illusion … With the opening of the Inner World and Black Tide Island, the original things on Brandt Island became a little useless.
Whether it was the stronghold on Brandt Island or the hired NPCs and the heart system of the NPCs.
While the players who liked to level up and get new dungeons and equipment were eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the Black Tide Island map … Little Feather was already wondering if there was a need to continue building Viva Core's stronghold.
While Little Feather was thinking about this … Boss Yin suddenly came to the NPC residential area.
"Lin Feather, I'll call you by your ID in the game. Little Feather, what's your Architect level?"
Boss Yin shouted at Little Feather from afar.
"It's already Master-level. Boss Yin, do you plan to build anything in the stronghold?" Little Feather asked.
Little Feather swore that Silver might be the most conscientious boss he had encountered since he graduated from university. Silver and Cola Fanatic Air Bubble were the only two bosses among the eight major guilds who could get along well with their employees.
However, the development direction of Coke Mania was completely under the control of Air Bubble and Sprite. Although the guild atmosphere was good, it still felt like playing games with the boss.
On the other hand, Mr. Yin rarely asked about the internal decisions of the Jumping Nuclei. He only made some decisions on key areas. The members of the Jumping Nuclei were able to maintain a high degree of freedom in other matters.
For example, if Little Feather wanted to build something in the stronghold, he only needed to inform Mr. Yin and Mo Shigui.
"Not in the stronghold, but in the public area of the New World Square map of the Inner World. I spent money to buy all the buildings around the square area of the New World Square."
Boss Yin's words almost … caused Little Feather to smash the building he was building with a hammer.
"Don't the private manors of the Inner World cost a lot of money?"
Little Feather had never bought a house in the Inner World because, in his opinion, there weren't any monsters in the Inner World. Buying a manor in the Inner World was better than buying one in the Holy Spirit's main world.
"It's not expensive. I only spent 400,000. This is much cheaper than buying a house in the Outer Beach District of the Upper City in real life," Silver said.
"It really is much cheaper …" Little Feather had lived in the Upper City for so many years and had a deep understanding of the terrifying housing prices there.
The Outer Beach District was the busiest area in the Upper City. There was no way to buy a house without asking for more than 10 million.
"But boss, why did you buy a house in the Inner World?"
"Have you seen something that is being discussed on the forum?"
Silver opened the Heavenly Temple webpage widget and threw a link to Little Feather. The link was still to a post on the Holy Spirit forum.
The title of the post was "Blacktide Island's new death penalty mechanism: Abyss Plague, Weakened State, and Freya's Memory … More death penalties are still being updated."
Poster: Frontline Reporter.
Little Feather didn't think much of the first two death penalties. After all, everyone was a veteran online gamer. They had all experienced the penalty of losing all their equipment after playing online games for so many years. Abyss Plague and Weakened State were nothing.
But the penalty of Freya's Memory made Little Feather frown. He concluded after reading through the post posted by the frontline reporter …
"Does the president know about this?"
"I don't know. Coach Song is now studying the opponent for the next game, but I have a solution now," Silver said.
"Solution?"
Little Feather looked at the content of the post. The frontline reporter only posted a screenshot of Freya's special dialogue after the opening of Blacktide Island.
From the contents of the special conversation, the spell-stealers and dragons on the Blacktide Island could absorb the power within the bodies of the Holy Spirits due to their possession of Divine Shards, and the power of the Holy Spirits came from Freya … These spell-stealers had consciously taken away the most important part of the Holy Spirits — their memories.
"Drag the monsters of Blacktide Island to the Inner World," Silver said.
"From the dialogue of Freya's special plot, they would only lose their memory if they were killed by the Spell Stealers and the monsters on Blacktide Island. If we drag the Spell Stealers of Blacktide Island to the Inner World … maybe there won't be this problem."
As soon as Silver's voice trailed off, Little Feather knocked the Building Block in his hand, and a damage value of -1 popped up above his head.
"This … Boss, that's impossible, right?"
Little Feather put the Building Block back into his backpack. He felt that now was the time to persuade his boss to stop thinking about those tricks.
"Why not?
Brandt Island's Fire Drake and Terminator Dragon can go to the Inner World. Why can't the monsters of Blacktide Island enter the Inner World? "
Silver pointed at the portal behind him that was so huge that it could send a mountain into the Inner World.
"That portal doesn't seem to have a judgment that can only send players," Silver said.
This had nothing to do with the portal!
If the boss in the map could send players to the main city, then wouldn't the rules of the game be messed up?
But Little Feather seemed to be inspired by Silver's words.
Why not?
Strictly speaking, Blacktide Island was a wild map, not a dungeon. Brandt Island was a dynamic map like the Holy Spirit World.
The monsters that respawned on it were not fixed.
"But what about the method?
We don't even know how to get to Blacktide Island. "Little Feather was looking forward to dragging the monsters of Blacktide Island into the Inner World.
In the past, when he played online games, he fought on maps built by the game officials, and there were all kinds of malicious traps. But Holy Spirit World had a lot of potential, at least in terms of the construction system.
"Find the officials," Silver said.
"Official … officials?
Silver, don't tell me you have … cheats? "
Listening to Silver's words, Little Feather thought of a lot of shady dealings, like Silver going to the game officials to help him change the data or something.
"It would be great if Holy Spirit World had cheats. I mean to give suggestions to the officials. Isn't Holy Spirit World still in testing?
There are a lot of bugs in the testing and some things that the players don't like, right? "
Silver admitted that Holy Spirit World was a good game, but Holy Spirit World had its flaws. Version updates were too fast, which was one of Holy Spirit World's flaws. Another flaw was that the connection between versions was too weak.
"I wrote a suggestion letter to the officials. The content of the suggestion is to come up with a game mechanism that allows the players to drag the monsters of Blacktide Island to the Inner World to fight. This way, the construction of the stronghold on Brandt Island and the Inner World will be effective. But I'm not sure if this suggestion will be approved, but even if it doesn't, we can still forcefully drag the Spell Thief of Blacktide Island over," Silver said.
"Forcefully drag over?"
Listening to Silver's idea, Little Feather felt like … everything was connected. The development and battle of Blacktide Island, the defense of the stronghold on Brandt Island, and the construction of the Inner World were all connected.
Since Brandt Island didn't spawn monsters to attack, then they could drag monsters over from the new map.
"The Plane Pirates' game style is to rob and kidnap. Their background setting has the ability to kidnap all creatures and travel between different planes. We've all joined the Plane Pirates faction, so of course we have to do things more like pirates," Mr. Yin said again.
"But isn't that the background setting in the game?"
Little Feather always felt that his boss's thinking was strange. The background setting of the characters in the game was usually not linked to the combat power in the game. No matter how powerful the background setting of some NPCs was, they would become weak as the game updated.
"Although I haven't played Holy Spirit for a long time, I've made a small discovery."
Silver put his hand on Little Feather's shoulder and said, "That is, most of the background setting of Holy Spirit … at least most of it will be effective in the game."
