The villain queen eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and won't let me lie down?

But this difficulty level is already at a point where only high-level Legends can pass with luck.

Yet Roger is only at the initial Legend stage!

The gap between Legends can be bigger than that between humans and dogs, but he made up for most of it with skill and insane maneuvers…

Like that ground-rolling blood-grinding style, and the map-exploiting sniping style, which left a deep impression on the Eternal Night Empress.

Do you have any pride as a mage?

The Eternal Night Empress didn't even have time to laugh at this kid; instead, she began to suspect that the difficulty of her Endless Tower design had a problem…

You should know that rewards are given for clearing stages. If those challengers all act as shamelessly as Roger after its release, wouldn't I go bankrupt from giving out rewards?

Roger even said in a very Versailles-like tone, "I didn't expect you to put a Balor Flame Demon on the forty-sixth floor. If I adjust my specialization modules, I might have a chance to clear it."

The Eternal Night Empress snorted, "Your performance has been excellent already. There's no need to work any harder."

You want me to give you three days of vacation for playing once? I'm not doing that losing business!

After this little interlude, the Eternal Night Empress made three decisions:

First, increase the monster difficulty by three times to prevent stowaways like Roger from cheating rewards.

Second, use the alias 'Kaz' to release the Mage Camp, to avoid the embarrassing situation of the Empress's masterpiece being speedrun.

If there's going to be embarrassment, let Kaz take it. What does it have to do with Octavia?

Third, accept Roger's suggestion and add functions other than combat to the Mage Camp.

This is the message board area outside the tower.

The mages in that area can't see each other, but they can see the messages others write in real-time, with each message limited to 140 characters.

This is the Eternal Night World's version of Weibo.

As for whether the mages will like it, we'll have to see the results of the public beta test.

If it's successful, Roger can confidently suggest adding more functions to the Mage Camp, trying to guide it into becoming this world's internet.

Ideally, it should be accessible not only to mages but also to ordinary people, which would definitely greatly promote the development of the empire.

The Eternal Night Empress scoffed at his idea, "With 400 million people logging in, do you want to exhaust the worms to death?"

The Mage Camp is composed of elite members of the Eris Worms, and even the Mind Demon Domain can't bear an unlimited number of consciousnesses.

"But there's more than one Eris Worm, right? Can't they be artificially bred after being captured?" Roger asked in surprise.

Server load is limited; shouldn't we increase the number of servers?

The Eternal Night Empress was momentarily speechless.

She had no idea that Earthlings were so good at playing!

The Eris Worm trembled. It didn't care about its kind being captured, but the words 'population breeding' made it feel like something terrible was about to happen.

Is this guy a devil in human skin?

No matter how high its physique is, it will be exhausted. Damn mother worms, don't come over here!

These are the changes regarding the Mage Camp. With the release of 'Arcane Musings,' mages are logging in one after another. The Eternal Night Empress, Roger, and the Arcane Council are all continuously observing the feedback from these mages.

ps1. Went to change the medicine yesterday and they said the wound was healing well. Today, the diet has gradually been relaxed. I will work hard to update twice a day in the future.

ps2. I'm updating twice a day, so asking for a vote isn't too much, right?

Chapter 111: Isn't Spamming More Fun Than Fighting Monsters?

The people of the Green Vine Empire are naturally warlike. The profession of mage makes them more cautious, but this is their limit.

After entering the Mage Camp, they all headed straight for the Endless Tower, full of vigor and high spirits, ready to start fighting.

Then, they felt what despair is, and what fancy deaths are.

Because Roger's previous demonstration of clearing the stages was too straightforward, the Eternal Night Empress directly increased the difficulty of the stages by three times.

The first three floors were originally designed for beginner mages, but even advanced mages were defeated there by accident.

The later difficulties were even more terrifying.

Even legendary mages with rich combat experience felt like vomiting blood when facing enemies strengthened three times.

Without preparing some special defense-breaking spells, even mages felt that the enemy's tankiness was tricky.

Originally, everyone was motivated by the rewards, but after dying a few times and repeatedly failing after stubbornly retrying, many people became disheartened and began to doubt their lives.

At this time, everyone finally noticed the message board, writing complaints on the templates, or monster weaknesses and terrain advantages they had discovered, hoping to give some hints to those who came later.

Mages can't see each other after entering the camp, but these messages are updated in real-time, and all templates can be viewed at will.

Soon they realized that this was a new way of communication.

And it was anonymous communication without knowing who the other party was.

In this message board area, you can fill in any name, or even no name.

And after writing a message, it will automatically recognize and replace it with print, maximizing the concealment of identity.

Originally, many people honestly wrote their real names, but after venting their feelings and casually looking at other people's messages, they discovered outrageous names such as 'Big Watermelon,' 'Sad Pipe,' and 'The Empress is My Wife,' and realized that this message board was actually anonymous.

Of course, the ID 'The Empress is My Wife' was quickly sprayed into changing its name, and the person himself was kicked out of the Mage Camp by a mysterious force.

After the mages stopped using their real names and put on their aliases, their chatting ideas became unrestrained.

"The hind legs of the unicorn on the 12th floor are a weakness. Using siege artillery to attack will have miraculous effects."

"If you use siege artillery to hit a monster, isn't everywhere you hit a weakness?"

"Everyone, don't believe the message that there is a hidden mechanism on the 6th floor. It's a lie. I died five times to open the mechanism!"

Some people generously share their experiences, and naturally there are also guys with evil tastes who deliberately mislead others!

Latercomers who want to stand on the shoulders of their predecessors and go further inevitably need to take risks and distinguish between the true and the false.

But going off-topic is a basic operation written into human DNA. Even though people in this era are getting anonymous and timely communication for the first time, the topic quickly shifted from the Endless Tower.

Because this terrible monster-fighting and level-breaking game is too difficult and lacks fun, it truly explains what it means to 'kneel in reality.' After discussing it, it seems that it is difficult to find any clever routines other than true strength and operation.

Even if there are, the designers have found ways to target them and blocked them in advance.

This is very desperate, and after despairing, everyone doesn't want to chat very much, hoping to chat about something else.

For example, a sigh that 'the current mage classification is really terrible!' quickly triggered hundreds of messages.

Later, seeing the previous discussions, or liking, refuting, or spraying, more people joined the discussion.

This was originally a controversial topic in 'New Arcana.' The ancient school believed that the mage classification passed down from ancient times, based on distinguishing the bottlenecks of realm improvement, was already quite perfect.

The arcane school believes that this classification is not detailed enough, and the combat power of each stage varies greatly. There should be a more detailed method to facilitate everyone's understanding of their level.

Especially above the legendary strength, the span is even greater. A single legendary rank cannot help mages measure each other's strength.

If it were in reality, the ancient school would definitely prevail. After all, everyone has to respect their predecessors.

But now that they are wearing vests, no one knows who is who, and everyone's speeches are bold, and the remarks attacking the current mage classification are quite hot and bold.

Some people also swiped stalks such as 'Same Legend, Why Are You So Good?' and 'Archmage is Always the Sewer,' having a great time.

Soon, more controversial topics brought out by 'New Arcana' also emerged and were discussed in this message area.

Mages don't necessarily write with only one hand. They shout 'Pen, come!' and summon ten quills to simultaneously line up with different people on ten message boards, recklessly outputting, which is so happy.

Isn't this more fun than fighting monsters?

Isn't this safer than real-world debates?

After all, not all mage communication environments are truth salons. The empire's violent output mages are the mainstream. If you can't win with your mouth, then let's see the real chapter under your hands!

It is precisely because of these controversial topics that the message area has truly become lively. It has begun to become a primitive forum, helping otaku mages to communicate online for the first time, collide with wisdom, see a wider world outside, and find people with similar views and compatible values to form friends.

The message area is set up with the function of sorting those wooden boards according to popularity. The Eris Worm will comprehensively calculate the 'popularity' in real time based on the number of views, the number of messages, and the number of likes.

Templates with high popularity will automatically be moved to the front, and will be seen by mages who enter later, and then attract their attention.

At the beginning, the tips of the Endless Tower were ranked at the front. Later, with the emergence of controversial topics, as more and more mages were taught to be human by super-difficult levels and did not have the courage to continue the challenge, everyone found that chatting was more fun than fighting monsters.

The game operation has signs of failure, but a large online dating community has a trend of taking shape.

The Eternal Night Empress found that the mages' speeches here were quite bold.

Swearing will be blocked and temporarily prohibited from speaking, but there is no way to directly supervise sarcasm, so everyone can still euphemistically ridicule, do their best to mock the difficulty of output, and show their sense of superiority.

Words that cannot be said in reality, because there is an extra layer of protection here, many people who are suppressed in reality have become unscrupulous.

Here, even a primary mage can unreasonably stir up trouble and make an archmage furious, but the logic is self-consistent, which can be said to be quite outrageous.

Six hours after the Mage Camp was opened, a total of 3,000 people entered the mental space, and the strongest challenger has reached the fifty-sixth floor of the Endless Tower.

There are currently 2,000 people online in real time, but only 10% are still continuing to challenge the Endless Tower.

The remaining 90% of the mages are all soaking in the message area and spamming like crazy.

Seeing that their insights are agreed upon, or that someone refutes with obviously erroneous content, and from time to time there are some views that make people angry, the impulse of the 'keyboard demon' makes people unable to stop.

You can't imagine the joy of anonymity, you can't imagine the joy of vests!

Fight monsters? Who wants to fight monsters!

Is chatting not heartwarming, or is spamming not happy, or are the jokes written by funny peers not funny, so you have to go to that Endless Tower to find abuse?

Smart mages have already learned to leave different names, act as both the positive and negative sides, deliberately induce others to draw wrong conclusions, and then pretend to be rational and show a sense of superiority with a new vest.

People in Aodu are very good at playing, and the routines are deep.jpg

The Eternal Night Empress was also amused by many sharp comments and tasteless jokes.

Then, using her identity as the master of the space, she saw the real identities of the people who wrote these messages. They were also big figures in reality, but they were so presumptuous in the virtual space. She felt that the program effect was super doubled.

In the anonymous state, these mages were simply several levels more unrestrained, and they completely lost their idol baggage!

This little Roger is really a devil who digs into the dark side of people's hearts!

A small change has brought about a huge change!

Of course, this is not just entertainment. Real-time alignment on the message board actually accelerates the truth that many topics become clearer with debate.

More interestingly, the mage circle is actually not that big.

Some old guys who quarreled on the head guessed that the other side was an old opponent who had been competing for decades through wording and started offline appointments.

"Your Majesty, should we stop this violence?" an executive of the Arcane Council asked.

"Let them go. The one with the thicker staff is naturally the truth." The Eternal Night Empress was not only too lazy to care, but also recorded the location of their appointment, preparing to watch the fun at that time.

If there is no message area, how can I usually see these hypocritical guys showing their true colors?

Of course, she also has to control a battle scene by the way.

Although these old guys are stubborn, their combat power and research ability are also imperial treasures.

It's good to have a fight to vent their anger, but they can't really hurt each other. She, the master of the empire, will feel distressed if either of them is hurt.

The Eternal Night Empress has a good calculation, and has already vaguely realized that as a platform, she can secretly guide the mages of the world for her own use.

She doesn't need high-ranking officials, generous salaries, money, or artifacts, but a topic that can arouse their interest.

Relying on her innate keen intuition, this scumbag empress has realized that she has embarked on the road of traffic as king and instigating war to lead the rhythm...

The art of governing the country with fan circles has been further developed!

……

……

After the Mage Camp was opened to the public, it achieved a higher retention rate than expected.

A lot of rewards were issued for climbing the tower, but in the end, what really attracted the mages was the message board function that Roger suggested and the Eternal Night Empress just casually did.

This fully shows that people of any era, any occupation, and any education level have social needs.

Anonymous messages, real-time interaction, and the infinite expansion and extension of a single topic are all novel things that have not appeared in this era.

Moreover, many functions can never be realized in the real world. Only virtual spaces such as digital and spiritual can do it.

After the initial freshness, the mages have unanimously called the camp owner Master Kaz.

It is not only to respect his superb magic skills, but also to thank him for providing unprecedented creativity and creating such a mental space that makes them feel super novel and interesting.
