Screaming Cycle

Ji Lu couldn't understand Ren Jianmo's meaning for a while.

He raised his head and stared at each other's eyes suspiciously.

They were originally Zhao Chai's focus. Seeing the two men frowning, as if they were whispering, the man on the stage stopped and asked with a smile, "Is there something wrong with the two of you?"

At this moment, everyone in the entire conference room focused their attention on the two of them.

Ren Jian held up an index finger calmly and made a "silhouette" gesture to indicate not to talk here.

Ji Lu turned his head back and made a statement to listen carefully.

After about half an hour, they learned from Zhao Zhui about the operation and new rules of the gang called "Compass".

Compass is also one of the best gangs in "Peach Blossom Spring".

So far, it has a total of more than two hundred and thirty participants. Among them, the boss of the gang and several important officers have broken through the "world" of A-level difficulty, and are ready to challenge S-level difficulty at any time.

In the monthly "world" missions, the gang will be matched according to the level and ability level of the members, divided into several groups, led by a reliable captain, and enter the "world".

Moreover, there are special think tanks in the gang. They are composed of highly educated and high IQ talents from all walks of life. They analyze the clues in the trailer for each team to predict the general situation of the next "world" and the most suitable props. Improve the survival rate of everyone in the team.

However, the help provided by the gang is not free.

As Ji Yuan had previously expected, every member who joins the "compass" and completes a "world" must allocate a portion of points and pay it to the management of the gang.

And every time you use "collectibles", it is regarded as "rental", and the points consumed by the rent are jointly responsible by all members of the team.

In addition, not only the "collectibles" obtained by members must be handed over to the gang, they are in the "world", and they also have to consider abilities for their teammates.

In the power rules specified by "Peach Blossom Spring" for participants, under normal circumstances, each participant can only inspire one type of power. If you want to obtain new abilities, you must reach very strict restrictions. It is said that The difficulty is so great that no big man in "Peach Blossom Spring" can achieve two abilities at the same time.

Therefore, under this premise, if a participant who already has an ability, after obtaining a special item that can stimulate the ability in the "world", it must be handed over to the team leader, and the team leader will assign it to other players in the team who have not stimulated the ability. Players.

All in all, although the conditions for joining the gang may sound a bit harsh at first, it must be said that under the language and art packaging of Zhao Chai, a senior headhunter, most of the people attending the meeting did not feel that the gang would charge them at all. What's wrong.

For newcomers, the sense of security of a team is what they yearn for more than the illusory points that can only be regarded as a series of numbers.

Everyone is afraid of fighting alone.

The explanatory meeting is here. Among the 18 newcomers, 13 people have expressed their intention to join the "Compass" on the spot.

The remaining five people, in addition to Ji Lu, Ren Jianmo and Mo Tiangen, there are two middle-aged men.

The two of them hesitated for a while, and then asked a question, "After entering the gang, will every ‘world’ have to change teams? Can’t we arrange a fixed team?"

Zhao Chase smiled.

He knew that the two of them were reluctant to earn their points.

People who usually think of this problem are all thinking that if there is a stable team, after they become familiar and strong one day, the whole team will not have to rely on the help of the gang, and can directly stand on its own.

Zhao Chai secretly laughed in his heart that the two of them were not very capable, but they had long-term thinking.

It's a pity that, at least until now, no rookie who has asked him about the same kind of problems before has been able to successfully get into the "world" of level B difficulty.

"You are just newcomers, and there is still a lot of room for growth in your abilities, and you still need to get in touch with the team."

Zhao chased and said with a smile: "Moreover, when you experience more'worlds' and the difficulty becomes higher, you will find that the types of'worlds' in Peach Blossom Spring are far more abundant than you think. Sometimes, it is not as simple as you think. ."

The two middle-aged men glanced at each other, showing doubts on their faces.

"The think tank in our gang once counted the types of F-class ‘world’ and found that there is a pattern to follow."

Zhao Zhui expertly began to explain:

"The'world' of F grade difficulty is mostly physical monsters that can be attacked physically. This will give you the illusion that as long as you improve your physical abilities and exchange items with powerful offensive power, Can survive in the'world'."

Ji Yuan thought for a while, and felt that Zhao Zhui was right.

He has not seen many "experiencers", but the Jie Ge encountered in the City of Ashes is a model of physical enhancement flow plus violent kill flow.

"But when the difficulty increases, the situation will be different."

He smiled slyly and made a not very funny joke:

"As long as the top themes in the popular thriller horror films, you may encounter them in the'world.' It's easy to understand, right?"

Everyone shuddered.

Especially those who have just watched two horror films recently, they can't help but begin to make associations in their minds.

"In addition, I would also like to remind you that usually new people who have just entered the'Peach Blossom Spring' are easy to mistakenly believe that the larger the team, the safer they will be and the higher the chance of survival."

Zhao Zhui strikes while the iron is hot:

"In fact, this is not the case, because the'Peach Blossom Spring' will coordinate the difficulty of the'world' according to the average level of the participants."

Ren Jian frowned silently.

"Because there are rules that allow'follow', theoretically there is no upper limit on the number of actors who can enter the same'world.'

Zhao Zhui said:

"But if it does, what do you think will happen?"

The newcomers present shook their heads honestly.

"I think among all of you here, someone should have watched that very old junk film "Zombie World ○ War", right? It's almost the same scene as that."

He vividly described:

"You will most likely find that the entire team will be thrown directly into the army of millions of zombies. When nothing is clear, the strange pile will be overwhelmed."

In fact, not many people have seen the early zombie film he used as an example.

However, as Zhao Zhui described it, everyone had their own set of associations, and obviously they also imagined them quite realistically and concretely. Several people couldn't help but shudder.

At this moment, no one, including the two middle-aged people, had any more doubts about the team arrangement of "Compass". They didn't struggle any more and decided to become a member of the gang just like everyone else.

Zhao Zhui came to Ji Yu, Ren Jianmo and Mo Tiangen and asked sincerely:

"So, what about you three?"

&&&&&&&&&

After the briefing was over, Ji Shu went back to his room.

This is his first night in "Peach Blossom Spring".

Sure enough, lying on the soft big bed, classmate Ji Xiaoniao couldn't sleep at all.

During this period of time, the amount of information he received was really too great.

To be honest, Ji Lu was almost convinced by Zhao Zhui.

Although it is a painful thing to pay a certain amount of points in every "world", who doesn't want to have a destination that can accept himself and give him guidance when the road ahead is uncertain?

Even the superheroes in the comics who tear the aircraft carrier with their bare hands are still going to form an alliance, let alone these little characters who have not figured out the rules of the game.

What's more, Zhao Zhui also used some very contagious words such as "companion", "go home", and "work together", which are particularly easy to resonate.

Coupled with the herd mentality that everyone has, he almost got his head hot, thinking that it must be his ultimate destination, and he took out his points to join the "compass" on the spot.

However, he was not so impulsive to immediately agree, but replied to the headhunter and asked him to consider it first.

Now Ji Xiaoniao calmed down and thought about it for a long time before finally clearing up some clues.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Ji Xuan hit a few times, hugged the pillow and beat twice.

——Yes, it is not a wise choice to join the "compass".

Thinking of this, Ji Yu couldn't help but get up, ran to the desk and sat down, and opened the communication terminal.

He hesitated for half a minute whether to send the communication request to Mo Tiangen or Ren Jianmo.

Finally, Ji Shun looked at the clock on the desk, thinking that 11:30 is not too late for modern people. After all, he couldn't hold back, and dialed the call request to [Wisteria 0010].

This time he was not hung up three more times, and Ren Jianmo quickly picked up the communication.

"Not asleep yet?"

Ji Yu hid his fingers under the table, nervously pinched the corners of his pajamas, and said dryly, "I'm sorry, I'm bothering you so late."

Ren Jian shook his head silently, and a pair of pupils of different colors looked at Ji Yu in silence through the display screen, as if waiting for him to follow.

"It's actually nothing..."

Ji Lu replied: "It's just that I always figured out what you said at the meeting..."

Ji Xiaoniao thought of the tone of Ren Dameiren's speech against his ears and the breath that sprayed on his ears, his cheeks were hot, and he couldn't help but stretched out his hands and scratched his ears.

"Oh?"

Ren Jianmo smiled lightly, "What do you think, tell me?"

"You told me that the rules of'Peach Blossom Spring' don't allow the transfer of points to speculate. I didn't want to understand it before..."

Looking at Ren Jian's faintly smiling eyes on the display screen, Ji Lu suddenly felt like a student preparing to participate in a defense, his heart throbbed and he was very nervous.

"Because after the points reach a certain level, the difficulty of the participants''world' will increase accordingly, and the points can only be used to strengthen the body or redeem items. I guess both of these are not enough for the participants to cope. Is it true that the degree of difficulty of the'World' suddenly increased due to the increase in points?"

Ren Jian nodded silently.

In fact, in theory, Ren Jianmo, who had lost his memory, knew no more information than the newcomers like Ji Yu.

But obviously, Ji Lu, the little fool, really trusted his judgment from the bottom of his heart, and he almost took his words as a standard.

"I think that although the big guys of the gang will collect points from the members as capital for the operation of the gang, they will definitely not concentrate a large number of points on one or two people in a short time, or else they will be "Peach Blossom Spring". The difficulty of compulsory upgrade is serious."

Ji Yuan looked at Ren Jianmo's expression, "So the greatest possibility is that they will distribute the collected points to the main officers, or they will be exchanged for equivalent collections and so on to keep them... At the meeting, this is what you want to tell me, right?"

Ren Jian curled his lips slightly.

"Have you seen the Obelisk?"

He asked: "So, have you noticed the distribution of the number of participants of each difficulty level on the obelisk?"

Ji Shu's face blushed and shook his head honestly.

At that time, he only looked at the small space at the top of the obelisk without any characters, and heard Zhao Zhui brag about the legendary hero who is extremely close to the SS-level "world" difficulty, and he did not know whether he was fallen or reborn. The mysterious king of Lanling is now.

Now that I think about it, I really don't know the point. When tomorrow morning, he must go to the obelisk again and count carefully how many names there are on it.

"Not to mention other levels, there are about 30 participants who have broken through the S-level difficulty "World" on the obelisk."

"Wow!"

Ji Lu let out a sigh: "That's much more than I thought."

He originally thought that the S-level difficulty was only one step away from reaching the goal of rebirth, and that he could definitely be rare. He didn't expect that there were as many as thirty people.

Ren Jianmo: "Then do you remember, how difficult is the'world' that the leader of the'compass' gang can reach?"

Ji Lu answered very simply this time: "It's Grade A!"

"Um."

Ren Jianmo smiled at Ji Shu:

"On the obelisk, the A-level difficulty piece, there are probably nearly a hundred names, and the main combat power of the'compass' is in this category."

Ji Lu was shocked:

"You mean, the real big guys don't actually have much interest in forming gangs?"

This time Ren Jianmo shook his head.

"I mean, those powerful senior players, they don't bother to join the'compass' gang, which is dominated by low-level players."

"why?"

Ji Lu asked incomprehensibly: "Although you can't get too many points from other people at once, as long as you organize a gang like the'compass', you can have a very stable and risk-free point. Pay it? Why not do it?"

He laughed at himself, "After all, how foolish newcomers like us are."

If it weren't for Ren Jianmo to stare for him, Ji Lu felt that maybe he and Mr. Dagen would have been swept away by a wave of points now, and they had happily joined the "compass".

"There are two possibilities."

Ren Jianmo answered his question:

"The first is that after a certain level of difficulty, the points become less important; the second is that as the difficulty of the'world' increases, the points earned or spent will increase exponentially. The members of the team simply cannot squeeze out points of this magnitude."

The corner of his lips twitched, and he said lightly: "As for which one, you will know when you break through the B-level difficulty of the'world'."

Ji Yuan felt that when Ren Jianmo said the sentence just now, his tone must be more determined and determined. He just described the B-level difficulty "world" as the back garden of his old house. He would enter or leave as he pleases. Just out.

"I see."

Ji Lu was already clever, and he had understood it at this time.

"And think about it carefully. In the rules of'Peach Blossom Spring', the difficulty of'World' can only be increased but not decreased. Once a certain degree of difficulty is broken, you can only continue to challenge the same level of difficulty, or work harder to increase. NS."

He pouted:

"So, for those bosses who really aim to clear the SS-level difficulty "world", when their difficulty level reaches a certain level, those gangs dominated by low-level members actually have little meaning. ,Right?"

Ren Jianmo put his cheek in one hand and smiled lazily:

"There should be a lot of gangs or organizations belonging to high-level performers in'Peach Blossom Spring', but those people don't bother to contact new people."

Ji Shu: "..."

He was dazzled by the other's smile.

"Then can I think so?"

Ji Lu rubbed his fingers under the table. "The leadership of the'compass' regards the management of the gang as a stable way to obtain points and collectibles, but in fact, it has not really made a breakthrough in the difficulty, as soon as they claimed. Go home and work hard..."

He thought about the wording.

"I guess, they want to maintain the status quo? Not only can the difficulty of the'world' be controlled within their own ability, but also the members of the bottom of the gang provide them with a stable source of points... This should be in the'Peach Blossom Spring' Is it the easiest way to live what can be done here?"

Having said that, Ji Tuan frowned.

He didn't actually understand the thoughts of these people.

Because he desperately wants to go back.

In the original world, he still had many concerns that he could not give up. If he was given a chance to be born again, he would not give up in any way.

And when they came out of the Colosseum, they saw more than Zhao chasing the group of them, but maybe because of the face of the "compass", they didn't come up to strike up a conversation.

In other words, the gangs in "Peach Blossom Spring" that rely on absorbing newcomers are definitely not only the "compass" family.

Could it be that these people have already given up the hope of going back by default, so long as they live it off?

"After a long time in the'Peach Blossom Spring', maybe some people's minds will change."

As if he had guessed what Ji Yu had thought in his heart, Ren Jianmo laughed softly:

"Then how are you going? Do you still want to join the'compass'?"

Ji Lu thought for a while, and answered honestly:

"Although the leaders of the'compass' may mostly want to rely on the points of the gang members to get around, but in the newcomer stage, having a team that can cooperate with each other is really helpful to the survival rate. From this point of view, it can be regarded as Have you got what you need?"

Ren Jian nodded silently, agreeing with what he said.

"However, if we join the'Compass', we must obey the gang's team arrangement..."

Ji Xuan swallowed nervously, and silently clenched his hands into fists under the table.

"I, I want to and you, of course, and Teacher Dagen, the three will continue to form a team..."

Ji Xiaoniao opened his eyes wide and looked earnestly at the handsome man with long hair on the opposite side of the screen.

"is it okay?"
