Chapter 218: New Map, High Risk, High Return
The characters in the game are all fake.
Even if they lie, it doesn’t mean much.
Han Tian was stunned for a moment by the surging bullet comments, then apologized to Zhang Sheng.
Han Tian: 【Sorry about that, brother. 】
Zhang Sheng: 【It’s fine, this isn’t a secret that can’t be told. 】
The faces used in the game are not their real ones, so Zhang Sheng wasn’t afraid of exposing his real-life information.
He smiled slightly at Han Tian.
And because of Zhang Sheng’s words, Weibo was thrown into a frenzy.
Shattered Sect unexpectedly dominated several trending topics.
The fact that disabled individuals can be restored to full health alone is enough to show that this game’s momentum for global explosion is unstoppable.
Excluding those who still insist the game is fake, or conspiracy theories stemming from foreign countries being unable to obtain qualifications.
The actual significance of this game has already crushed everything else.
Except for some countries that have always ignored information from Huaxia, most countries worldwide have begun to pay attention to Huaxia’s game, which surpasses current technological levels.
They are also wondering if it’s actually black technology developed by Huaxia.
A certain famous major power was the first to become restless.
Unable to contain their various conspiracy theories, they began to confront Huaxia on all fronts to obtain more information about the game.
The people below naturally didn’t know about the high-level power struggles.
Wei Jun, for one, was incredibly busy.
After Shattered Sect appeared, their department established a special investigation team to monitor this game. Now, more leaders, and even some retired senior leaders, have taken notice of this game.
Knowing that Wei Jun held more information about Shattered Sect, they called him for consultations.
In fact, the core idea was only one: Is there any way to obtain game qualifications?
Wei Jun felt a headache coming on.
If there were a way, their department wouldn’t be so anxious.
Other experts, after roundabout inquiries, learned that the country had been paying attention to this game for a long time and came up with a terrible idea to test the waters.
They suggested tracking the players who had already obtained qualifications and discussing whether to swap qualifications.
Or, perhaps, controlling all the players who had obtained qualifications.
This terrible idea was immediately lambasted by the leaders above.
However, the idea of monitoring was still relayed to Wei Jun.
Both Wei Jun and Liu Wenyu denied it.
Firstly, the players who snatched up qualifications were basically ordinary people, and this method, which relied purely on luck, was spread across the country.
How could the country have so much spare time to monitor everyone?
Moreover, it was meaningless.
The System had already hinted that players who obtained qualifications earlier were more fortunate in certain aspects, and the country would certainly not move against them.
Even for civil service exams, they select people with good luck!
Otherwise, what if they brought misfortune to the country?
However, with the news that disabled people could play the game, all major departments became busy.
It’s estimated that the power struggles between countries will be even more unavoidable in the coming days.
Other countries certainly wouldn’t stand by and watch Huaxia develop such super technology without doing anything; they’ve likely already made arrangements.
Some people were also frantically searching for information about Shattered Sect, and for a time, the attention on Shattered Sect once again soared.
Even ordinary people learned about a magical game that could restore disabled people to normal.
Thus, Song Jiulai, who was still in the game, received a notification of a surge in System energy.
Compared to the sensation caused by Ma Shaojie last time, the influx of attention this time was even greater.
The System said to Song Jiulai: “Foreign countries have officially started to notice us.”
Song Jiulai couldn’t intervene in this matter: “Let them notice. I can’t manage these things right now. I hope people outside will handle it themselves.”
For such a groundbreaking game, it would be abnormal if it didn’t attract attention.
【Ding: Current Energy Pool total 2718/3000. 】
【New recruitment quota of 150 slots added. 】
【As the Energy Pool has expanded to 3000, Sect Master’s authority has been enhanced, and the System’s scope of authority has expanded. 】
【Player traces have now reached the border of Cave Demon Valley, Liuyun Sect, Peach Blossom Sect, Tai Xue Sect, and Guanhai Sect. These new locations are new login points, and the System has the authority to log new players there. 】
【The following is the complete Sect information: 】
【Sect: Longevity Sect 】
【Energy Pool: 2718/3000 】
【Affiliated Sect: Flying Sparrow Sect 】
【The Sect Master should research and view the System functions independently. 】
Song Jiulai was shocked: “Holy crap, as long as they’ve logged in, that counts? You can even send people to Tai Xue Sect?”
That’s tens of thousands of miles away from Myriad Immortal Sect!
The System did a rough test and then said: “Yes, my authority has indeed expanded, especially since Zhan Sheng is there now. However, I tested it, and I can only see the range Zhan Sheng sees. It’s not as convenient as in Wang’an County where I can see the surroundings. That area of the map is completely black in my database, with only Zhan Sheng as a bright spot. So—”
Song Jiulai finished its sentence: “You can send them, but they can only be sent there to be like wildlings?”
System: “That’s about the gist of it.”
Meaning, they would be unwanted, wild players.
The System would also be subject to certain restrictions and couldn’t provide too many conveniences to players.
Of course, pills and such could be provided.
They could be provided, but do new players get Points?
No guarantee of safety, no guarantee of survival; it’s a hell mode from the start.
Furthermore, there are no First Order Demonic Beasts in the Tai Xue Sect area to train against.
And they wouldn’t earn Points.
If their Spiritual Root is poor, they’d just be cannon fodder.
Song Jiulai hesitated for a moment.
They could log in, but should they open it?
Wang’an County was also short on players and safe.
However, there would always be people with an adventurous spirit in this world.
After thinking about it, Song Jiulai said: “Still open it. For Tai Xue Sect, initial Points will be tripled, considered hell mode. Apart from basic Spiritual Root and Cultivation Method, nothing else is guaranteed. If they can manage to survive, then the players who enter will be super geniuses. I doubt many will choose it.”
But whether there are any is another matter.
The System said: “If not, can’t you just open Peach Blossom Sect and Liuyun Sect? Wang’an County can still accommodate players, and Flying Sparrow Sect can too.”
Song Jiulai shook his head: “No, it’s too conspicuous. I suspect the reason you can open the permission is also this. Wang’an County can’t accommodate that many Sect disciples right now, and you know how few disciples Peach Blossom Sect has.”
According to information gathered by players, Peach Blossom Sect only has about eighty disciples.
And a bunch of miscellaneous workers.
Wang’an County is already severely over capacity.
Nominally, they are under Longevity Sect, but they can be a multi-purpose tool!
Song Jiulai said excitedly: “Besides, is the Spiritual Energy in Guanhai Sect and Tai Xue Sect comparable to Longevity Sect?”
If they really went there, it would be equivalent to players being born in a Cave Heaven Blessed Land at the start—provided they could explain their origins.
Because they definitely wouldn’t be able to enter Sect City.
But great risk comes with great reward!
The System agreed: “You’re right. This batch of new players needs to start dispersing. When they join Liuyun Sect and Peach Blossom Sect, how can you worry about not being able to absorb these sects!”
