Virtual World: Close Combat Mage

chapter-874
“Can’t these guys give us less trouble!”All the staff members of the Parallel World Company wept, especially the technical department. After solving the technical problem of the full prison in Yunduan City, the extremely heaven-defying people once again created an even bigger technical problem, this made the staff of the parallel world deeply feel how difficult it was to earn money by working a job.
“Inform all staff to wake up and come over to work overtime! !”That night, the phones of all the employees of the game company were ringing off the hook. The extremely heaven-defying name was like thunder that resounded in their ears, letting every staff know how powerful they were. Many of the employees were woken up from their deep sleep. Faced with the question from their young children, “Daddy, where are you going so late at night?”, they answered in a daze, “It’s so heaven-defying!”
“How will we deal with it?”The lower-level employees were discussing animatedly. At this moment, the players online in the game had already started to move towards the direction of the cloud and the moonlit night cities, meanwhile, the higher-ups were still having a meeting to discuss how to deal with this matter. It was a tragedy. The hot news on the forum was the busiest period of the day on the Internet, so the news spread very widely. Therefore, the players who knew about this news no longer went offline for the night, and they started to hurry on their way.
The decision-making plan was also put forward very quickly. First of all, they firmly denied the way to contact the players who were extremely heaven-defying again and negotiate with them to solve the problem. The game company always compromised with the players like this. Moreover, it wasn’t the majority of the players. It was just a very, very small amount. Where would their face go?
“This time, we must use technology to solve this problem.”The Big Boss hammered down the general guidelines.“Solving the problem using technology and combining it with reality is actually not too difficult.”At this moment, a think tank began to come up with ideas. He controlled the projector, and a huge map appeared on the screen. Of course, everyone present knew that, this was the entire map of the parallel world.
“Everyone, please take a look. Yunduan city and Yueye City are located at the southwest corner of the entire parallel world. With the distance between the two cities in the game, in just one night, nearly 85% of the players in the main cities would not be able to reach Yunduan city and Yueye city with their legs. “And these 85% of the players in the main cities can only use the teleportation scroll. I feel that if we first control the teleportation scroll technically, the majority of the players would be controlled.”The think tank analyzed.
“We’ve locked down all the teleportation scrolls?”Someone asked.
“Perhaps we can be more tactful. For example, we can temporarily lock down the location of the mail,”the think tank said.
“Mail transfer?”
The think tank confidently gestured on the map and said, “If the other main cities want to be teleported to the yueye city in the cloud, the scrolls in their hands must have the coordinates of these two cities. Think about these outer city players. If they want to have the coordinates of these two cities, they have to at least send the scrolls in their hands to their friends to help them make the coordinates. Or, they have to buy the scrolls from the merchants and workshops of the yueye city in the cloud over a long distance. “So, by locking the email, it’s the same as controlling their actions to go to Yunduan city and Yueye City.”
“That’s right!”Those who didn’t understand understood understood.“Let’s do it that way. Lock the email immediately and make up a random reason. Do It now.”The boss immediately made the decision. From watching the commotion on the forums, to the news breaking out, to discovering that the players didn’t log off and began to move towards the two cities, to gathering people to quickly discuss a solution, it had been quite some time. The monitoring team’s data feedback.., the number of players in Yunduan and Yueye City had already begun to surge. It was very obvious that it was impossible to reach Yunduan and Yueye City from a main city that was too far away. The players also knew such a simple principle. Hence, the players from the distant lands had thought of the teleportation scroll as soon as they arrived. The ones that were already ready were basically ready. Those that were not ready were looking for ways to purchase them. The most depressed ones were those that did not have money. They would look for their friends and gather funds. A scroll could teleport four people, so each person had one-fourth of the load. The burden could be much lighter.
“No matter what, the peak of the player population in Yunduan City and Yueye city can not be avoided. I think these two main cities need to load the servers quickly to divert the load,”the think tank suggested.
“Do you have a spare server?”The boss asked.
“Yes, I do,”someone answered.
“How long will it take?”The boss asked.
“If it goes smoothly, it will take half an hour! But the connection will definitely be cut in this half an hour,”the person in charge replied.
“I think...”someone spoke again, “As the number of people increases, the server will not be able to load and there will be a delay. The players will also feel it. At this time, we will take the opportunity to cut the connection and use a real reason to announce it. The solution will be solved in half an hour. The players will definitely understand.”
“Okay.”The boss nodded.
“Then how many servers will be loaded into each city?”
“How many backup servers are there?”The boss asked.
“20.”The boss answered.
“Why are there so few?”The boss frowned.
“This is all to deal with temporary failures. I didn’t expect to have to deal with such a sudden situation.”. This kind of thing could be replaced relatively quickly, so the number was deliberately controlled from the beginning. This is what you signed,”the subordinate reminded.
“20 is enough. Currently, the number of players in each main city is still far from the full capacity of the server. If it weren’t for these guys’movements that spread all over the world and only between two or three main cities, we wouldn’t need to work at all.”
“Just in case, use all ten servers in each city!”The Boss said.
“Understood.”
“Any other questions?”The boss asked.
“Regarding this dispute, what should our position be?”Someone asked the boss.
“Continue to provide the service. Don’t get involved when there’s no topic pointing at us.”The boss seemed to have thought it through.
Parallel World Gaming Company was also very efficient. The higher-ups arranged the decision while having a meeting. By the end of the meeting, the mail lock-in had already been completed. The announcement on the official website did not mention anything related to this incident. It only said that the data was a little abnormal. It was suspected that a Trojan horse had attacked and the mail service had been suspended, the items, letters, and money in the mail would be kept completely, so players could rest assured.
At first, this announcement did not become the focus of the players’attention. It was only when a large number of players who had used teleportation scrolls entered the transaction segment that they realized that there was nothing in the mailbox, it was only when they looked at the official website that they realized that this announcement was the same as the contents of the email in the game.
Everyone was in an uproar. Although the official did not make a clear statement, there was no doubt that the email would suddenly break down and be monitored at this time. These players who were finally able to go to Yunduan City and Yueye City were all furious. In an instant, there was a new target of attack on the forum. The boss even said, “Don’t get involved if there’s no topic pointing at US.”However, as soon as the email was locked, it was immediately attacked..
No one in the game company had expected that the busiest part of the night would turn out to be the customer service department. The phone rang continuously, and the emails were not received in succession. The complaints on the forum were constantly refreshed.
“Is there a problem with the email lock... ?”Some people were already feeling guilty, and the brains behind this idea were sweating. He had underestimated the players’awareness. Even if the players had not thought of the purpose of this move, the only thing that had happened had blocked everyone’s way of earning money. No matter what your real purpose was, they would still trample on you. The customer service manager glared at him. It was said that four of his customer service ladies had already been scolded to tears by the players.
“Crazy, all of them are crazy...”someone said in a daze.
At this moment, the first batch of players who were migrating on foot had already reached their destination. From the map, it could be seen that Yunduan city was even closer to the corner than Yueye City. For the world continent, Yueye city was the closest choice. Many main cities even wanted to go to Yunduan city, and Yueye city would become a transit point. At this moment, Yueye City had more players than Yunduan city. Some of them were already not prepared to continue moving forward.
The city district of Yueye City, outside of the city, was filled with people! The network delay that had disappeared from online games for many years finally appeared. Moreover, under the holographic mode, the players had a brand new experience. Every player had mastered teleportation. The scene in their sight was always reincarnation. They had just said something, but in the next second, they actually heard it again. Where did the voice come from? No idea..
In the midst of the panic, the system announcement appeared without delay: the server is overloaded and is about to stop working. Players, please pay attention to the official homepage.
Ten seconds later, Yueye City’s players were collectively cut off from the network. Everyone rushed to the homepage and saw the announcement that the game had long prepared. This announcement did not cause too much noise. The players could understand the real reason. More importantly, the game promised to resolve the issue within half an hour. This made the players feel at ease and wait. Reality proved that the game side of the parallel world was relatively honest in their operations.
The ones who were more unhappy were the indigenous players of Yueye City. Because according to what they knew, it was a heaven-defying guild from Yunduan city that caused such a situation to happen. But why did it cause Yueye City to lose their connection? What was all this about?
The server’s temporary shutdown did not cause a huge uproar, but the problem of the mailbox still needed to be resolved. The announcement had been out for more than an hour, but there were still players who came to complain about manman in high spirits. Three girls from the customer service department ran to the bathroom crying.
“Add another announcement: The Mailbox monitoring is also responsible to the players. Otherwise, if the attack data is destroyed, the loss is also the players’interests, so the mailbox is locked.”The boss instructed, and the secretary quickly recorded it, of course, the boss meant what he said. The official announcement still needed to be polished, polite words like “Please understand, players”and “No mailbox will not affect the normal running of the game. I wish everyone a happy game.”Still needed to be said.
When this announcement went out, the players quieted down a little. Many players who had calmed down began to ask how long it would take to resolve it, hoping to give a clear answer.
Therefore, the official reply was that as it was an external attack, the time was immeasurable. Everyone, please pay attention to the latest announcement..
Everything was in line with the saying: If you tell a lie, you need countless lies to make it up to you. The game company found an excuse to lock the mailbox, and now they had to continue to lie to fix it. More importantly, with so many players’aggressive momentum, it seemed that the mailbox could not be used anymore. They had to find another way. Once again, the higher-ups nervously sat together.
Among the players who were denouncing the mailbox incident, there was no lack of eternal comrades. He had gathered his thugs precisely because he wanted to use the mailbox to contact them. He was preparing to pile up the mail and deal with it once and for all. Who would have thought that when he went, he would receive such a system mail. He was furious.
Then, he realized that with the mailbox locked, they would not be able to go to Yunduan City and Yueye city at all. They didn’t have the teleportation scrolls to complete the coordinates of the two cities! Although the workshop had one over there, the mail couldn’t reach them. Even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to send it over.
Of course, the news that they were going to throw their equipment was also known by the heroic spirit’s side. Unrivaled heroic spirit was furious. He didn’t expect these guys to be so calm. With so many equipment scrolls, they weren’t moved at all? Perhaps each of them had kept some for themselves, but they could be ruthless enough to give up most of them. This was undoubtedly a very smart move. This move easily silenced the mouths of the players. Right now, no one cared about who was right or wrong in this battle between heaven-defying and strange.
What was even worse was that this move of strange was absolutely impossible to replicate. Although they had more resources on hand, the items that were thrown were originally from strange. They were the ones who felt the heartache. Now that they were throwing them out, would they continue to feel the heartache? Furthermore, they were throwing them out as well. What was the point of this? Throwing them like this could kill a heaven-defying person? Not only did Ying Qi not have a reason to throw them out, more importantly, it could prove that he was a retard.
“Shameless! This is too shameless! !”Matchless hero gritted his teeth in anger and sent eternal a message, “Go to Yunduan city immediately. If you meet a heaven-defying person, kill him. Kill him to death! ! !”
“I can’t go,”eternal answered sadly.
“Why! !”
“The mailbox is locked now. I Can’t get the teleportation scroll,”eternal said.
“I. . .”Matchless couldn’t even curse. He felt that he was really unlucky. Why did so many bad things happen to him at the same time?
“How is the matter of getting some people from you?”Matchless asked.
“My email is locked!”
“Do I have to have an email for this?”? “Can’t you change your contact information?”? “Leave Your ID on the announcement and open your friends!”! “If not, leave your phone number, your QQ, and your email!”! ! ! ! “Don’t you know how to do all this?”Gaius roared, in fact, ever since he hired Hawk Regiment as a private guard, he had never spoken so rudely to these players. This time, he was angry, really angry.
He was always tactful. He replied indifferently, “I’ll do it.”Then, he disappeared.
“F * ck... how could this be...”matchless hero increasingly felt that the development of the matter was too far from what he had imagined. He did not know if he could still take back this city.
At this moment, Yunduan city seemed very calm because Yueye city had become their cover. Other than the players on the streets, the number of players in the wilderness had obviously increased.
These players had all teleported to Yunduan city before their mailboxes were locked. Their numbers were not enough to cause the network congestion in Yunduan City, but the increase in the number of players was obvious. This was different from when the players gathered at the same place during a city war. These increased players were also moving freely like normal people, making Yunduan city appear very lively.
At this time, defiant was also very busy. Countless players tried to get in touch with them and ask about the details of tomorrow’s equipment loss, especially those who had come from far away. It would be disgraceful to return empty-handed. They had to at least get something! Especially those friends from other places who were very defiant players. At this time, they all felt that they had the upper hand.
Unfortunately, the heaven-defying players who participated in this operation were only their core members. Other than them, they were all under Dusky Cloud’s command. Although the others knew about this, they did not have much of a choice, in fact, they were no different from the other players. They were even thinking of coming out early the next morning to pick up their equipment.
It was a little unbearable to say that a member of their own guild would receive such treatment. However, the heaven-defying guild members had already digested this problem very well. Sword Demon had gone to seek out Yunxiang the day before and dealt with this problem properly. Otherwise, the entire plan would not even have an explanation for the guild members. This was truly quite heartbreaking. After learning the entire story, the heaven-defying guild members no longer had any objections. They continued to do whatever they were supposed to do. However, having a friend come over to meddle in the matter was actually quite troublesome. If he said that he did not know, the other party would not believe him at all, causing everyone to feel a little awkward in the end. Nonetheless, everyone was mentally prepared for this situation. In any case, they had a clear conscience.
“It’s so much livelier now...”young master Han stood at the entrance of the tavern, feeling rather depressed. He was not afraid of the liveliness, but what annoyed him was that there were so many people that there were no empty seats in the tavern. This was already the seventh tavern he had left, it was still overcrowded, and young master Han regretted coming up with such a plan.
“That’s good. Yueye city has already suspended the connection due to too many people,”brother assist said.
“It seems like everyone is paying close attention to our operation this time,”young master Han said.
“But the items we have are probably not enough to satisfy so many people, right?”Brother assist asked.
“Of course. Compared to so many players, this little bit of resources is too insignificant,”young master Han said.
“How many of those things are there? Did Yunteng say anything about that?”
“About one-fifteenth of the resources we have at Heroic Spirit’s workshop,”young master Han said.
“That’s quite a lot!”Brother Assist’s eyes widened. Back then, they had not even managed to move half of the storage unit, yet they had actually managed to get one-fifteenth of it, from the looks of it, it seemed that what unrivaled super had said about the supplies during their interview with XI Xiaotian was not true.
“Hey, where are you going?”After brother assist finished lamenting, he realized that young master Han had already disappeared. Turning around, he saw that the man had already left without a word.
“I’m touched by everyone’s enthusiasm. I’ve decided to log off now to rest and come back early tomorrow to deliver the goods to everyone.”Young Master Han waved his hand without even turning his head.
“Is that so? Isn’t it because there’s no place to drink?”Brother assist muttered.
