Invincible Heroes - Hidden Architect

"Reborn?!"

Mixue Bingtang obviously didn't expect Qi Ge's answer to be this, and seemed a little surprised.

"You mean resurrection after death?"

Qi Ge paused and then said:

"No, I'm not dead.

Rather than describing him as a reborn person, it would be more appropriate to describe him as a time traveler.

Five years after I left Yasha World, I returned to the time when the game was just launched.

For other players, Yasha World has just been launched for more than a month.

For you, you may have known about the world of Yasha for more than a year.

However, for me, I know all the changes in the Yasha world in the next five years. "

"Time travel...isn't this equivalent to predicting the future?

He also brings with him 5 years of gaming experience from his previous life.

No wonder you are so strong, it’s so cheating!

Wait a minute, no, if I travel to the world of heroic souls, although it is very science fiction, it can still be explained by science.

But time travel? ! Isn’t this too magical? ! Isn’t the speed of light insurmountable? "

Michelle Bingtang murmured in her mouth, but she was thinking about another thing in her heart.

"Dingdong has connected himself with Fortune Crown Prince, but Fortune Crown Prince did not respond.

In other words, what Qige said is true. "

She immediately asked:

"Then how did you get reborn?"

Qi Ge stretched out his finger, made a sign of 2, and said:

"This is the second round of questions. According to the rules we set in advance, you ask the question first.

Are you sure you want to ask this? "

Mixue Bingtang suddenly panicked and her eyes rolled around.

"Wait, I'm not sure. No, I'm sure.

Gee, let me think about that. "

Qi Ge could clearly see that Mixue Bingtang had the intention of delaying time, but he did not stop him, but said with a smile:

"Of course, I respect your choice."

He picked up a glass of sugar coconut juice and slowly sucked it while pretending not to care, while using the corner of his eye to secretly observe Mixue Bingtang's reaction.

After more than a minute, Mixue Bingtang cleared her throat and said:

"I decided to ask this.

How were you born again? "

Qi Ge put down the sugar coconut water and said calmly:

“In the fifth year of my previous life, I found the Tears of Yasha.

When I got the Tears of Yasha, the system asked me to tell my wish.

At that time, because of my poor decision-making, my guild was destroyed, I also owed a lot of debt, and my studio went bankrupt.

In fact, as long as I give up the name of the studio, I can enter bankruptcy protection and assume limited liability.

But I was somewhat willfully unwilling to give up.

In order to help me pay off my debt, several of my brothers went their separate ways and returned to their old professions, each starting a different game studio.

At that time, World of Heroes was already an unparalleled phenomenon-level game, occupying more than 80% of the market share.

It is very difficult for them to compete with other studios in a market where only 20% of games are left.

However, they still used their stable but low income to help me deal with the debt collectors' interest, while squeezing out a little from their teeth to support me in continuing my activities in the heroic soul world.

You may not believe it, but even at that time, my stupid brothers still believed that I could make a comeback. "

Qige patted the table lightly and said firmly and persistently: "Then how can I let them down?"

Mixue Bingtang was startled by the momentum that gradually emerged as Qi Ge spoke.

In her eyes, Qi Ge's demeanor at this moment was somewhat similar to her father who loved her but was very strict.

She involuntarily straightened her back and adjusted her sitting posture.

Qi Ge continued:

“At that time, the entire remaining territory of the Heroic Soul World had been divided up by the Grand Guild.

Starting from scratch is even harder.

If you want to survive in a desperate situation, you can only do what others cannot.

So I set my sights on the most precious treasure in the entire heroic soul world - the Tears of Asa.

I collected ancient books and searched everywhere, and finally found the conditions for the birth of Tears of Yasha and how to obtain them.

When I got the Tears of Asa, I heard a voice.

That sound is completely different from the sound prompted by the system.

He asked me what I wanted. "

Michelle Bingtang swallowed and became even more nervous.

Qi Ge raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile:

"What do I want? I want to sell the Tears of Yasha and exchange money to pay off my debts and start a new life.

However, Tears of Yasha is actually bound and cannot be sold.

So I said frustratedly,

I made a mistake and I want to start over and fix my mistake, can you do that? "

Qi Ge raised his head and said with a smile:

"He said that He also made a mistake and asked me if I would like to help Him correct it.

At first, I thought the person I was talking to was the staff behind the game, and I smiled and said,

I don’t understand the program and can’t fix the bug.

He said, then go back and give it a try.

At first, I didn’t understand it and thought he was telling a joke. As a result, when I woke up from my sleep, I had already returned to the week before the launch of the World of Heroes. "

Seeing Mixue Bingtang, who was already fascinated by what she heard, Qi Ge softly made the final conclusion:

"This is the whole process of me traveling from five years later to now."

Michelle Bingtang asked cautiously: "Qi Ge, the one you are talking about, does his voice have a male or female voice?"

"Female. I know what you want to ask. I guess it's her too."

"Hiss~ Are you talking and laughing with Mother Goddess Asa?!

Wait, let me calm down. "

After listening to Qige's story, Mixue Bingtang pretended to be deep in thought while shouting crazily in her heart.

"Quick, quick, Dingdong, help me search for information about Tears of Yasha!"

"Dingdong reminds you that the energy is insufficient. You need to upgrade Dingdong 5 times before you can search."

"Five times?! Why didn't you grab it?! I spent so much effort, spent a whole year, and collected so many materials, and I only allowed you to upgrade once!

The next five times became more difficult each time, and I had to upgrade to a certain year and month. "

"Ding dong reminder: five times is the minimum."

"Then help me check the possibility of me getting the Tears of Yasha."

"Ding Dong Tip: The probability is less than 1 in 10,000, the default is 0"

"But didn't Qi Ge get it? Is there such a big difference between Qi Ge and me?"

“Dingdong prompt: There is a program contradiction in the core algorithm.

The Goddess of Wealth determined that the Seven Doves' story was true, and the database judged that the probability of Yasha's chosen one getting Yasha's Tears was almost 0.

The program is overloaded, unable to calculate, and enters standby mode. "

Michelle Bingtang's eyes widened in horror.

She understood exactly what Dingdong said.

Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! What kind of legend is this? !

The seven pigeons who traveled back through time accomplished an almost impossible miracle!

She immediately understood why Qi Ge had developed to such an extent in such a short period of time.

This also made her more scared.

It’s over, how can I compete with this kind of person?

Qi Ge smiled slightly and said, "My question is, what is the true God's creation you are talking about?"

Michelle Bingtang was a little surprised: "You didn't ask me if I entered the game a year early?"

Qi Ge shook his head and said, "I won't ask. I've already guessed the answer."

"Cut~~"

Michelle Bingtang pouted and said:

“The true God’s creations are the items made by the true God.

For example, your Silver Spirit is a true creation of God. "

After Michelle Bingtang finished speaking, she fell silent, trying to muddle through.

Qi Ge smiled sarcastically: "It's not enough to just tell you this little information. Your Majesty Wealth doesn't agree with it.

Our rules say that we need to provide the other party with as much detailed information as possible. "

Michelle Bingtang's mouth kept opening and closing, but she made no sound.

Qi Ge knew from the look of her mouth that she was cursing.

Qi Ge smiled softly and didn't take it to heart at all.

Mixue Bingtang struggled for a long time, but she could only explain honestly:

“When I entered the game, there were eight true creations to choose from: earth, fire, water, wind, sun, ocean, wealth, and peace.

After choosing, not only can you get the corresponding true god's creation, but you can also get the corresponding god's chosen identity.

The specific function of each true god's creation is worth a question, so I can't tell you.

However, I can tell you that the peaceful creation I saw is different from your Silver Spirit.

So I infer that each true god may have more than one true god’s creation. "

When Mixue Bingtang said this, she found that she hadn't passed the test yet, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

She felt that every piece of information she had was very important, and she didn't want to say anything about it.

So she thought hard for a long time, racking her brains, but still couldn't think of what to say.

Seeing this, Qi Ge smiled and said:

"Since you don't know what to say and what not to say, how about this? If I ask a question, if you think you can answer it, just answer it.

If you feel you can't answer, just skip it until the judgment is over. "

Mixue Bingtang immediately nodded happily and responded: "Okay! Let's do it."

"First of all, when you chose the true God's creation, didn't you have fate and magic?"

"Yes, but the icon is black and I can't select it."

"Besides earth, fire, water, wind, sun, ocean, fate, magic, peace, wealth, is there anything else?"

Michelle Bingtang tilted her head in confusion and said, "Of course not. Are there any other true gods in the Yasha world besides them?

Ah, you can't say it's the Mother Goddess Asa, right?

If possible, I would also like to choose Mother Goddess Asa. Any fool knows that Mother Goddess’ true creation is the strongest.

Unfortunately not. "

Mixue Bingtang didn’t know that there was a true god behind the nine major forces.

Qi Ge was thoughtful and then asked:

"Then how to judge whether something is a creation of the true God?"

Mixue Bingtang raised her head generously and shouted:

"I have no idea!"

Qige:? ? ?

"I didn't know you could shout so loudly and be so confident."

"Hmph! I'm so sorry, I'm useless. Can't I?"

Qi Ge had a toothache: "Okay, okay, okay."

"Then you have to tell me what the general characteristics of the true God's creation are, right? You don't need to go into too much detail, just give it a general outline."

Michelle Bingtang was silent for a moment and said:

"The greatest feature of the true God's creation is that it is born with divinity, so it has unlimited potential and a very high growth limit."

Is it similar to mythical troops?

The seven pigeons were thoughtful.

Wait a moment……

The growth ceiling is extremely high and the potential is endless.

Yasha God’s Chosen! Sand sculpture player!

Qi Ge seemed to suddenly realize something terrible had happened.

"Your questions are over, it's my turn."

Michelle Bingtang asked anxiously:

"Since you came back from the future, will I become the strongest person chosen by the Yasha God in the future, and will I lead the Yasha world to defeat Chaos?"

Qi Ge pondered for a moment and said: "Compared to the future, I prefer to call it the past life.

In this life, because of my existence, the trajectory of the world has changed a lot.

But in your previous life, you were indeed the strongest chosen by all the Yasha gods.

As for Chaos, unfortunately, not only did Chaos fail to defeat it, but it pressed closer and closer.

Before I traveled through time, the situation in the Yasha world was not very good. "

"Ah! How could this happen?"

Michelle Bingtang suddenly slumped down on the chair in despair.

Qi Ge asked doubtfully: "I'm a little curious as to why you care so much about this issue.

Of course, this is not my question.

If you don't want to answer, that's okay. "

Mixue Bingtang was so depressed that:

“It’s nothing worth hiding.

Isn’t my body in reality dead?

My dad told me that if I can lead the players to defeat Chaos in [World of Heroes], I can be resurrected and come back faster. "

"But if you want to return, don't you have to wait for your body to be cloned?"

Michelle Bingtang looked at Qige like she was looking at a fool:

"You've already talked to the Mother Goddess and you can still ask this?

Things that cannot be solved by the technology side can be solved by the magic side! "

"This is true."

Qige lightly knocked on the table and said:

“There is no shortage of smart people in our world.

From past life to this life.

Whether it is various forums or video websites, there are endless speculations and arguments about the Yasha world being a real world.

It's just that this information has never been officially confirmed, and there has been no consensus among the whole society.

There are some who are convinced, some who are half-convinced, and many who are dismissive.

And both of us can be sure that the world of Yasha is real. "

At this moment, Qi Ge suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Wait a minute, your dad told you that if you can lead the players to defeat Chaos in [Heroic Soul World], you can be resurrected and come back faster.

That doesn't require you to be the strongest among players, right? "

"If you don't become the strongest, how can you lead the players?"

"Who said you have to be the strongest among the players to lead them?"

"My dad.

My dad said that humans are wired to follow the strong.

Especially in a world like the Heroic Soul World, where there is a huge gap in personal power, everyone will listen to whoever is strong. "

Oh my god, what kind of secondary thought is this?

Qige touched her nose awkwardly and said, "Have you and your dad never played online games?"

Michelle Bingtang was stunned: "Is what my dad said wrong?"

"That's totally wrong."

Qi Ge knocked on the table.

“When a team of players joins a dungeon to fight a boss, the equipment and level of the team leader are often not the best in the team.

The one with the best equipment is usually the main T, that is, the person responsible for resisting the BOSS's damage.

Team leaders often work as DPS (output), nanny (treatment) and other occupations with relatively small operations.

What's the use of being strong?

No matter how strong a player is, if he cannot lead his team to defeat the BOSS, no one will be willing to follow him. "

Mixue Bingtang felt that what Qi Ge said made sense, but she still argued:

“But this is not just a game, this is the real world.

Moreover, the battle mode of Heroic Soul World is not the kind of team you mentioned to play a copy together. "

Qi Ge waved his hand and continued:

“The principle is the same.

Those professional players in professional unions are another matter.

Among ordinary players, who would listen to you just because you are better than him?

In the real world, you are powerful and I have no choice but to listen to you.

In the game world, even if I can't beat you in PK, the worst I can do is log off and stop playing. What can you do? "

Michelle Bingtang was deeply shocked. She blinked and asked humbly:

"You seem to be right.

So, what should I do to become a leader among players? "

Qi Ge took a sip of coconut juice and said in a deep voice:

“Actually, the reason is very simple.

Take the example of teaming up to fight the BOSS just now.

Players will follow the group leader to fight the BOSS because the players believe that the group leader can lead them to kill the BOSS.

They fight the BOSS not just to fight the BOSS, but ultimately for the experience points of the equipment and treasures that the BOSS will drop after defeating the BOSS!

In other words, for the reward.

Rewards will stimulate the players' brains to secrete dopamine, making players feel happy and making them feel that the hard work they put in during the BOSS fight is worth it.

In team PK, players want to feel the sense of accomplishment when they kill the bastard on the opposite side.

When doing tasks, players want to get recognition and rewards when the task NPC thanks them.

Sometimes players even do some illogical things in the game.

All of this, in the final analysis, is just for my pleasure.

In other words, everything the players do is for fun!

Whether you can lead players or not, the most important thing is whether you can make players happy.

As for whether you are strong or not, who cares? No one cares.

Your strength is just the capital to make players believe that you can make them happy.

Even if you have no strength at all, if you use another method to make players believe that they will enjoy following you, they will still follow you. "

Mixue Bingtang was stunned and shocked.

"So what I've been thinking all along is wrong?"

"Not only is it wrong, it's outrageously wrong."

Michelle Bingtang was in a daze for a while, then suddenly jumped up.

"Master Qi Ge, I understand!

Please teach me how to become a leader among players. "

Qige twirled the cup and said calmly:

“This is the experience I have accumulated from two lifetimes of working in game-related industries.

How can I preach and teach?

Let’s not talk about this yet.

My question hasn't been asked yet. "

Michelle Bingtang has a sincere attitude.

"Master, you ask, you can ask whatever you want, I will definitely tell you everything you know!"

"Really? Then I'll ask."

"What is the true god thing you chose, and what is its effect?"

Michelle Bingtang hesitated and said, "This is my biggest trump card, I can tell you.

But I need you to agree to form an alliance with me in front of the Goddess of Wealth, and you need to keep it a secret for me and not tell anyone else. "

Alliance?

Hey.

What I Qi Ge likes most is forming alliances.

"Of course. As the divine choice of the Church of Fortune, you and I are natural allies."

Mixue Bingtang took a deep breath and spread her palms flatly in front of Qi Ge.

In her hand, there was a colored gold coin suspended.

“This is my true god’s creation, Dingdong.

Dingdong has strong data analysis capabilities.

For most items in the world of Yasha, it can help me estimate the value and rarity of the items.

Not only that, Dingdong can also make suggestions for my actions and plans.

In other words, I can rely on the power of Ding Dong to collect more information.

I feel that intelligence and information are the real wealth.

With enough information, many problems can be easily solved. "

At this moment, the colored gold coins in Michelle Bingtang's hand flickered.

“Ding Dong reminder: Dear Apostle Seven Doves, hello.

According to calculations, your body matches the owner's body up to 98%, and the personality matches up to 85%. It is strongly recommended that you combine through marriage.

The probability of giving birth to high-quality cubs..."

"Snapped!"

Michelle Bingtang slapped Dingdong on the table and said with a terrifying smile on her face:

"Don't worry about it, Dingdong gets crazy like this occasionally.

Just give it a tap. "

Qige:? ? ?

Qi Ge nodded in astonishment and responded in a daze: "Oh. This creation of the true god of yours has quite a personality?"

Mixue Bingtang exuded a terrifying aura, and she put Dingdong away without a smile.

"Hehe. That's right. I think so too."

…

…

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became awkward and silent.

Qi Ge touched his cheek and quickly changed the topic.

"What, it's a new round, I'll start asking questions first.

Although I have some vague guesses, I still want to confirm. Are there many closed beta players like you? "

“As far as I know, I’m the only one.

I have always guessed that there are others because I have seen so many true creations of God.

Especially fate and magic I can't choose.

I would wonder if someone had chosen fate and magic before me.

But in the more than a year I have been in Yasha World, I have never found anyone similar to me.

The only one, you, is now eliminated.

So I'm not sure. "

Mixue Bingtang's answer coincided with Qi Ge's thoughts.

He was silent for a moment and said:

"Mixue Bingtang, in your previous life, your strength was overwhelmingly stronger than other players.

The top three players, the second and third players combined are not your opponents.

Moreover, as far as I know, all the top 40 players, except you, have been offline. "

Michelle Bingtang's expression was dull: "That means..."

"There is a high probability that you are the only player in the internal beta test."

Qi Ge paused and asked:

"Mixue Bingtang, can you be resurrected if you die in the game?"

Mixue Bingtang, who was in a daze, suddenly became alert:

"Why are you asking this?! Could it be that you think I know too much and are ready to kill me?

I, I'm warning you, this is the Hall of Wealth, and the goddess is always watching us. "

Qi Ge rubbed his forehead and said, "What are you thinking about? What good will killing you do to me?"

I just want to know if there might have been other closed beta players in the previous life, but they died halfway through. "

Mixue Bingtang immediately returned to her expressionless expression:

“Oh, I’m sorry to disappoint you.

I will be resurrected.

It’s just different from your immediate resurrection.

Although I felt like I was resurrected immediately, every time I was resurrected, it was three days after my death. "
