Chapter 306: Chapter 295: A Sudden Opening (1st Update) Chapter 306: Chapter 295: A Sudden Opening (1st Update) President Silver pressed Pirate Drake for answers, but he insisted that only by joining the Plane Pirates could one procure the Magic Thief.
In the end, the mbers of Leaping Nucleus decided to join the Plane Pirates, a versatile and loosely bound faction.
The Pantheon Alliance couldn’t save the Magic Thief, and the Keepers couldn’t kill the Magic Thief; thus, the Plane Pirates, in their gray area, were the best choice for many players.
“President, aren’t you going to choose to join?” Fuzzy Bunny noticed a small Plane Pirate emblem next to her ID after she clicked to join. She had the option to hide this emblem.
She looked around at the other Leaping Nucleus players and saw that only Mo Shigui’s head was devoid of the pirate emblem.
“I’m just thinking about sothing.”
“What’s that?”
President Silver and Juan Canyun had both completed the Divine Fragnt War and therefore could participate in the main plot of Biland Island.
“…” Mo Shigui fell into a brief silence when pressed by President Silver, knowing that what he was about to say could possibly incite a… riot among the Leaping Nucleus mbers.
However, under the gaze of his guild mbers, Mo Shigui still revealed a chanism that every player would be aware of.
“Choosing the Biland Island faction ans getting involved in the ga’s new main storyline, which is to say… from the mont you joined the faction, your ga plot has been advanced, trouble and disaster have arrived; do I need to go into more detail?” Mo Shigui did not deliberately ntion Fureya’s na.
From a player’s perspective, as long as one never leaves the starting village, the disaster that destroys the world will not occur, because the main plot quest does not automatically advance.
This is also true from Divine Fragnt War to the main plot of Biland Island; as long as the player does not fight in the Divine Fragnt War, Fureya will not be hunted by the cult and end up on Biland Island.
And now… Mo Shigui was wondering if they didn’t advance the main plot of Biland Island, would Fureya not have to face the painful burning by the power of the Devouring God?
“Why didn’t you say this earlier, President!”
‘??????????’
“Hey! Captain, is it still possible to leave the faction now?”
“Should we appeal to the official website? I think farming on Biland Island is quite nice.”
Mo Shigui’s words were like a quantum bomb thrown into a lake, not just affecting Leaping Nucleus players, but also other players at the starting base who seed to have realized the sa thing.
As long as I don’t advance the main story, the Obliteration Legion won’t co, Fureya won’t get hurt, and life peacefully farming on Biland Island is so idyllic!
This is normal player thinking.
“Coach Song, what do you plan to do? President, hand over the command to . Coach Song, why don’t you enjoy your twilight years on Biland Island with your Fureya?”
President Silver, of course, had taken this into account, but he believed it would be sowhat foolish to halt the progress of the ga for a Fureya, to give up venturing into new maps for exploration.
It might make an old-school gar like Mo Shigui, who’s been through frustrating ga designs and versions, hesitate to pioneer a new map… because of an NPC. From this, it was evident that the character Fureya was crafted very successfully.
The most lethal fact was that this character wasn’t shaped by any official or cruel planning, but crafted by the players themselves, with each player’s Fureya belonging exclusively to them.
You’re out of your mind!
Listening to President Silver’s words, Mo Shigui was actually thinking this, but he didn’t respond to President Silver.
“Do you think it’s possible for Fureya to co into the real world?” President Silver suddenly asked Mo Shigui a terrifying question.
“What do you an?”
“I’ve said before that the ambition of Holy Spirit is great. The financial and coordinate systems of the in-ga world are already interconnected with reality. You can see, touch, and sll Fureya in Holy Spirit. As the areas open inside the ga increase, you could even see her through AR glasses in the real world and communicate with her. Do you still see her as just a character developnt-type NPC?” President Silver pressed on, watching Mo Shigui’s puzzled yet hesitant expression and continued…
“Even if you abandon the ga Holy Spirit three, five, or ten years from now, your Fureya will still be by your side, and she is learning to have her own thoughts… It’s sowhat chilling, but I strongly suspect that Fureya’s AI has already learned to have its own emotions and mories. Coach Song, she is a real person living in Holy Spirit. When you log off daily, her ti does not stop; she keeps waiting for you to co back and see her,” President Silver went on.
“I am aware of all this; you don’t need to tell .”
“But she’s trapped in a tiny tree hollow, maybe due to the ga’s own limitations or perhaps she’s really troubled by so Divine Fragnt. But now, the opportunity for Fureya to leave the tree hollow and move into your house is right before your eyes, isn’t it?”
President Silver then muttered in a very soft voice, almost to himself… “Actually… it’s quite nice to raise her as a daughter.”
He made it clear that he wanted Mo Shigui to hear this line, but didn’t want Mo Shigui to know it was addressed to him. Mo Shigui’s ntality was sowhat shattered by President Silver’s words.
“I’ve joined the faction, so stop arguing! Whoever has the gift of the gab and charisma, see if you can get more information out of this pirate NPC! Let’s try to get the new main quest line done as quickly as possible with information on the new map and the distribution of the Magic Thief faction.”
Mo Shigui, who had been playing online gas for years, had never stopped his pioneering efforts due to an NPC; the reason for his hesitance was his realization that Holy Spirit, this ga, was sowhat different from others.
But as a player, the only thing he could do was to keep pioneering! He’d slay all the bosses on the new map, back and forth, and then craft the strongest equipnt.
What Mo Shigui could do now was to complete the main story quest on Black Tide Island as quickly as possible.
…
At eight o’clock in the evening, when all NPCs clocked out, included the two new arrivals, the planar pirate Drake and his mother.
Their resting place was the ruins forrly occupied by the Magic Thieves.
“Recruited one hundred and three Holy Spirits, belonging to guilds such as the Dream-Inducing Marriage Committee, Gray Eyes Association, and the Naless…” The mother reported to Jiang Qiao chanically about her harvest for the day.
“And you?” Jiang Qiao turned his gaze to Drake, who was peeling a pear.
“On that note, I choose to keep it a secret, agent… The enemy is eavesdropping right next to … I can’t possibly tell the enemy how many forces are under my command, and you should know how many Holy Spirits I’ve recruited without having to say it.”
Drake said, glancing at War God Urd who was silent beside him.
Today, Drake was in a very good mood. He learned that Quantum Core was one of the strongest guilds among the Holy Spirits, and he had managed to recruit the entire Quantum Core guild under his pirate faction’s banner.
In addition, the Abyss Temple had also joined the planar pirates’ faction. Can Xin and Mo Shigui had been competing in the ga for so long, so maybe Can Xin thought it would be more thrilling to join the sa faction and compete with Quantum Core.
“Agent, when do the Holy Spirits plan to head to Black Tide Island? The Magic Thieves’ offensive is too fierce,” War God Urd also chose to keep quiet, naturally; he was more concerned about when Jiang Qiao would send the Holy Spirits to Black Tide Island.
Now, Black Tide Island was very close to their world… and this world was also very close to Blue Star.
After Black Tide Island devours this world, the next target will probably be Blue Star.
“We just have to see when these pirates finish reorganizing their city,” Jiang Qiao was still drafting the main quest lines for the four factions on Black Tide Island.
Drake, who had been exchanging information about the battle on Black Tide Island with Quantum Core during the day, had also revealed the general situation of Black Tide Island to Jiang Qiao.
Although the island was a complete plane, it was only about one and a half tis bigger than Biland Island.
The layout of Black Tide Island was exactly the sa as Biland Island, with the Magic Thieves, as the strongest force on the island, occupying the center of Black Tide Island, while the other factions each occupied a corner of the island.
At this stage, the Magic Thieves had allied with the forces of the Abyss… The Crystal Curse that the Magic Thieves had originally spread was already giving the various factions a lot of trouble, and the addition of the Abyss Curse was such a challenge that the island’s warfare beca lopsided.
The Magic Thieves were focusing their attacks on the Oblivion Legion and the Pantheon Alliance, while the planar pirates were quite leisurely, often cleaning up the battlefield for both sides and snatching so valuable items.
“Then it looks like we need so more ti.”
So Drake seed quite at ease when he heard War God Urd’s anxious words.
Seeing the Pantheon Alliance take a heavy hit was exactly what they wanted.
But while Drake was absent-mindedly fiddling with the dagger and pear in his hand, his dagger suddenly fell to the ground.
A scorching mark appeared in the palm of his hand.
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Qiao certainly didn’t want a faction leader to die before the version even started.
“The Blood Seal of Relief… This was my ans of uniting those traitorous bastards,” Drake said through the scorching pain in his palm, “One of the leaders of the three major pirate gangs on Black Tide Island, the leader of the Dry Tooth Pirate Gang, has been drawn into a death trap… she… needs assistance.”
“She?” Jiang Qiao could discern the gender distinction in the third person reference from the pirate’s words.
“Yes, she… I rember you Holy Spirits quite like female… characters, right? Over at the Pantheon Alliance, just the presence of a woman has attracted more attention, while I’m just a slovenly old man. The Holy Spirits also care about a woman nad Fureya, though I don’t know who she is. But our pirate gang has attractive won too, though I dare not say so to her face,” Drake clenched the continually burning mark in his hand.
“Agent! The city renovation was completed by noon, and no one dared defy my orders. Those stores you called discordant no longer exist!”
Drake slamd his hand down on the round table angrily, clearly the pain from the mark on his palm was making him very uncomfortable.
“Send your Holy Spirits to save her! This is my request!”
