Build a game empire from scratch

The opening of world missions is not only for players who have cleared "Cyber ​​Chang'an: 2077".

It’s not even just for players who purchased “Cyber ​​Chang’an: 2077”.

All players who cross the border of this cyber city will receive a prompt for the world mission [Return to the Starry Sky].

——At the same time that Lin Shun cleared the level, the players in Night City felt a subtle but lasting shock.

Players who are in a higher position and have a wider field of vision can clearly see:

Outside Night City, a super-large future city that was even larger than Night City suddenly appeared. It was like a huge icebreaker, crushing the earth with a rumbling sound, and slowly approaching Night City.

Further away, the vertically upward ruined world of "Homeward Bound" was also dragged closer together.

This spectacular and magnificent scene shocked hundreds of millions of users around the world into speechlessness!

In contrast, the fact that Cyber ​​Changan was merged into the public world a full 10 days ahead of schedule is not that surprising.

Many people drove their cars towards the giant city before the shaking stopped.

The moment they crossed the border, the mission prompt of "Return to the Starry Sky" popped up in front of them.

Their first reaction was surprise:

Big update to the virtual world!

It is still a large-scale update that requires downtime for maintenance. Obviously, there will be a lot of updated content!

But immediately, they were shocked by the terrifying progress demand of 10 billion.

Afterwards, as they entered the city, the mission instructions became clearer, so they ignored sightseeing and headed all the way towards the Tianyuan Technology Building in the center of the city.

By the time they arrived, the place was already crowded.

This is not surprising. The public world is always bustling. If there is any activity, it is normal for the whole street to be packed.

At the same time, the tremors in the city slowly stopped, and this cyber city was officially merged into the public world.

Outside the Tianyuan Technology Building, a huge holographic display screen lights up, and the [Return to the Starry Sky] sub-tasks appear one by one. According to the difficulty and reward, they are divided into [White], [Blue], [Purple], and [Gold]. Four colors of background are marked.

Everyone can take the white tasks, but completing them only adds 1 point to the task progress.

The blue task progresses by 2 points at a time, but you need to complete the white task 5 times.

Purple progresses 10 points at a time and requires completion of 10 blue tasks.

The last golden task is special. To complete 100 points of progress once, you need to complete 20 purple tasks before you can accept it. You must also meet the combat effectiveness requirements.

Players who have cleared the main missions of "Cyber ​​Chang'an: 2077" can take on blue missions from the start, and the requirements for taking on purple missions and gold missions are halved.

However, the number of golden tasks is limited, so it’s hard to say whether you can grab them.

As for the rewards of the mission, the development team used tried-and-tested tricks - out-of-print commemorative medals, out-of-print titles, and out-of-print decorative special effects.

The more tasks you complete, the higher your contribution progress will be, and the higher your medal, title and special effects levels will be.

The 50 players with the highest contribution progress will be selected as [Honorary Players] as long as they have no serious misdeeds!

Of course, these are special rewards in addition to regular rewards.

The conventional rewards such as currencies, props, weapons, and equipment that can be used in this city directly follow the mission system in "Cyber ​​Chang'an: 2077", which saves the development team a huge workload.

The players did not just stare blankly. Many people immediately initiated missions when they saw this system.

The white and blue tasks are not too difficult, and many of them are repeatable tasks such as [material collection], [material recovery], [material escort], and [material transfer].

——The wreckage of the space elevator is on the edge of this giant city. Now it is necessary to rebuild it. Overcoming technical difficulties is indeed the most important and difficult task, but it is not the largest one.

The largest number has to be civil work.

Lin You even wanted to fill the task library with a lot of construction site tasks involving moving bricks and dusting.

When Qin Songyun and Fan Rui heard this outrageous idea, their expressions changed on the spot, and they earnestly caught Lin You and tried to persuade him——

"No way, boss!!"

"This is not in line with the world view! This is a cyber future, these tasks should be handed over to robots, and players should be the supervisors at most!"

Lin You had to give up this idea regretfully.

But didn't give up completely.

He still had a dozen tasks left, which were mixed into the random task library.

Because the number is greatly reduced, the chance of being randomly selected is greatly reduced. In addition, players can choose tasks every time and are not required to complete them. This makes these tasks a foil in a certain sense.

But if the player still completes 10 tasks of moving bricks and dusting under such circumstances, then he will complete a hidden achievement and obtain a title with the same name as the achievement——

[The chosen one]!

But this is all for later. Now everyone is taking on tasks based on fresh energy and luck.

Measuring the balance between task difficulty and rewards, classifying and scoring tasks, this type of strategy post will not appear until at least tomorrow.

At this time, the employees of the "Cyber ​​Chang'an: 2077" development team were all watching this scene nervously and expectantly.

Equally nervous and looking forward to it, there are a large number of other development teams - both within Yunmeng and outside Yunmeng.

Everyone realizes: [Return to the Stars] is the precursor of [Cradle Project].

The moment when the 10 billion progress points of [Return to the Starry Sky] are full, it is the moment when the starry sky in the virtual world is fully opened to players, and it is also the moment when [Cradle Project] is officially launched on the market!

This will be a grand countdown that attracts global attention!

But at this moment, Lin You, who had created all this with his own hands, was not able to watch the countdown begin.

An unexpected news interrupted his focus.

It seems to be a wonderful contrast.

The virtual world has just finished a climax - clearing the main plot of "Cyber ​​Chang'an: 2077", and then started a new climax - the world mission has begun.

In the real world, this kind of thing also happens.

After the hibernation auction ended, Lin You had already looked away, but Elman reported another big news to him——

The highest bidder in the entire auction - US$8 billion, the old Rothschild, successfully won the hibernation quota and proposed to hibernate as quickly as possible. In just two hours, he was found dead. At home.

The Rothschild family has not announced the cause to the public, but rumors have leaked out that it is said that his death was caused by a medication error by the family doctor.

"But that's not the case, right?" Lin You asked.

If that were the case, Elman obviously didn't have to be so anxious to report to him.

"That's right." Elman nodded, "The old Rothschild has been training his eldest son to slowly take over the family business in the past few years. But after the hibernation auction was announced a few days ago, someone saw a violent incident between them. quarrel."

"And medication errors are too ridiculous."

"Old Rothschild is indeed very old and needs to take a lot of medicine every day, but he made a mistake? Don't be ridiculous!"

"This time is too coincidental!"

Elman said, shaking his head.

"You mean...his son poisoned his father?" Lin You was very surprised.
