Chapter 73 – 72: June Version Major Update, New Rules Added (Five More Updates!)
Chen Yi stood by the window, silent, rely lifting a glass of apple-flavored carrot juice to his lips.
He took a peaceful sip.
Clasping the glass in his hand, he gazed out the window.
In one more minute, the June ga update would arrive.
Tonight, most people would probably be unable to sleep, as no one knew what the new rules coming with June would be.
There was only one piece of good news.
That was that all players finally didn’t have to speak 1000 sentences daily with people anymore.
He glanced at his personal panel.
There were 230,000 Points, the entire Points Balance he had accumulated over the month.
Chen Yi shifted his gaze away from the personal panel, placed the glass on the windowsill, and lit a cigarette between his fingers, unfastening the first button of his floral shirt.
Hands propped on the edge of the windowsill, he calmly looked out the window.
Looking down, it was clear to see that many people were standing in front of their balconies, waiting for the June update.
It was unclear why everyone had to stand at the windowsill.
Perhaps at such a ti, seeing more of their own kind provided so sense of security.
And at that mont—
The ti reached 00:00.
June 1st, had co.
“Ga Update Announcent!”
“The new version of Blue Star 4.2 will start a non-stop update at 00:00 on June 1st. The main contents and adjustnts of this update are as follows.”
“1. Fixed the prohibition of gunpowder weapons, so players began to develop electromagnetic weapons and other bugs. Effective imdiately, both gunpowder and electromagnetic weapons are banned.”
“2. Fixed bugs in so maps, this bug fix includes the following maps”
…* Fixed the bug where players could infinitely farm points at the ’Sands of Ti’ map’s second level *…
…* Fixed the bug where ’Little Sprite’s Mom’ frequently intrudes on various maps *…
…* Corrected bugs such as the December neutral boss Santa Claus and his reindeer intruding into the May tiline *…
…*$%##%$#%%#*…”
“3. Fixed the bugs perford by so players in May, such as escaping from Blue Star, force-pulling them back, and adding an impenetrable air wall around the outer layer of Blue Star.”
“4. Added ’Fashion’ gaplay. Starting from June, players will have more ways to obtain various Fashion Sets, and these sets contain different magical effects. Be a unique you!”
“5. Public testing of ’Map Secrets’ gaplay. In May, we conducted a small-scale internal test of the ’Map Secrets’ gaplay, with 90% of player feedback being extrely satisfied.
In June, we are publicly testing ’Map Secrets’ gaplay. In June, players will encounter more maps and can venture into them to receive generous rewards.”
“6. Introduced ’Happy Silver Party’ gaplay. Over the past two months, we noticed many players engaged in unfettered actions relying on their strength; we detest this behavior and believe it tramples on personal dignity!
Therefore, we launched the ’Happy Silver Party’ gaplay. You can choose to buy a ’Silver Party Ticket’ and be transported into a huge banquet hall. Here, all players are anonymous and will wear masks that cannot be removed.
Before entry, you will be invited to fill out an xp survey, and big data will assign you to the Silver Party hall that suits you best.
You are free to choose your social interactions, with mutual selection leading to a shared journey. We hope this reduces so malicious actions.”
“7. Added a ’Shop’ feature. Players can spend Points to buy so basic props from the shop template in their personal panel, such as Vehicles, Fashion, Passes, Food, Pure Water, Household Items, and Silver Party Tickets.”
“8. Over the past two months, we found many players wishing for custor service in the ga. Hence, the Snow Sea Project Team decided to invite 10,000 players to serve as custor service representatives.
We will provide simple training for custor service, and when players find obvious bugs, they can report to custor service. Reporters will receive different rewards depending on the order of reporting.
Players who successfully serve as custor service will receive the Special Limited Title ’Custor Service ssenger.’ Other players, bosses, and monsters cannot attack players with the ’Custor Service ssenger’ title.
Players with the ’Custor Service ssenger’ title will permanently lose their ability to attack other players while serving as custor service, and cannot enter maps or attack bosses, monsters, etc.
They can receive 3,000 Points monthly, with a 9 to 5 schedule, weekends off, and triple paid leave during holidays, anniversaries, and major global events.”
Players can briefly outline their competitive advantages and send their resus through the chat channel to the Snow Sea Project Team. The team will select 10,000 custor service representatives within 3 days.”
“9. Near larger player gatherings, there will be constantly respawning monster waves. These monsters will launch an attack on the gatherings when they accumulate in sufficient numbers. Players should clear these monsters in a tily fashion.”
“10. Between August to October, depending on project progress, we might initiate a player deploynt operation to otherworldly battles. Please strengthen yourselves to ensure survival in these events.”
“11. Added the June rule ’Good Rest Habits’:
*. Players must sleep from 21:00 to 22:00 and wake up at 06:00 or before every day.
*. Eat three als a day at 8 a.m., 12 p.m., and 6 p.m.
*. Prohibited from using self-comforting thods to deplete spiritual energy when alone.
Players who breach any rule three tis by the end of the month will receive one permanent debuff corresponding to the rule breached.
*. You will always feel overwhelmingly sleepy, yet never be able to sleep.
*. You will always feel hungry, yet never be able to eat.
*. You will lose all desires, but your body will automatically expel spiritual energy five tis a day.
Should you breach all three rules three tis each, you will have the honor of possessing all three permanent debuffs simultaneously.
And receive the Special Limited Title ’Tuberculosis Rabbit!’
“`
And the title will be forcibly equipped and bound.
The duration of this rule is one month, and it will be permanently taken offline after the next version update.
“12: Due to different ti zones, the zones will unify in June, and afterwards, all players’ personal panels will have the accurate ga ti. Please adjust your schedules according to the ti on your own personal panel and actively follow June’s rules.”
“13: The global Children’s Day event on June 1 will officially start at 8:00 AM on that day.”
“The Snow Sea Project Team wishes all players a happy gaming experience in version 4.2.”
“Ps: Preview for the next update – The project team has decided to add monthly rules concerning ’emotions’. Please look forward to it.”
00:05.
00:10.
00:15.
Finally, after a full 15 minutes, Tuberculosis Rabbit had gone over the contents of this version update word by word. His gradually widening mouth finally closed slowly.
With a slightly dry mouth, he swallowed so saliva, unconsciously picked up the cup next to him, and took a big gulp of water.
Then, tremblingly, he lit a cigarette and brought it to his lips.
After taking a deep drag,
he managed to calm the turbulence in his heart a bit, and with a complex expression, couldn’t help but say, “A full 13 items of update content!”
“13 items of update content, wow!”
“Even browser gas don’t add this much stuff in one update.”
“So, did the Snow Sea Project Team do nothing in May except think about how to add content for the June update?”
“Couldn’t you pace it out a bit?”
“With so much content updated in one month, what are you going to update next month?”
“Yi, I just counted, this version update has a full 2000 characters. Do you think that when the Snow Sea Project Team was typing this many characters into the world announcent, their hands didn’t get tired?”
“And so of the rules are just nonsensical!”
Tuberculosis Rabbit couldn’t help but express his indignation: “Especially the new rules for June, the so-called ’good daily routines’, are really trapping people.”
“What if we are clearing a map and it takes a little longer, but when it’s ti, we must go to sleep?”
“If the boss isn’t dead yet and is right beside you, do you sleep or not?”
“And that thing about three als a day.”
“So if we get into a fight at 11:59 AM, and then it hits 12:00 PM, do both sides have to put down their weapons and get together for a hotpot?”
“Continue the fight after the hotpot al, right?”
“And if you don’t eat, you get a permanent debuff?”
“What if the fight hasn’t finished by 10:00 PM? Does that an the people who were just frenziedly waving their swords around will now all have to snuggle under the covers together?”
“Then sleep until 6:00 AM and get up to continue the fight?”
“This is too absurd. What kind of ridiculous rule is this? I think it’s even worse than the ’Calm and Cool’ rule of May.”
“If it were possible, I’d prefer to have the active player rules of April back. This update is no good.”
“Lousy designers!”
“…”
Chen Yi’s eyes narrowed in silence, not speaking, as he kept tapping his fingers on the windowsill, leaning on his cane and looking out at the silhouettes in various windows.
After a mont, he suddenly spoke.
“We need to find a cook as soon as possible.”
“At least for this month, we must have a cook. If we don’t have one in the wilderness or the map or in any place, and we don’t have food when it’s ti, that would be bad.”
“We can’t possibly have food ready at all tis.”
“If things go as expected, I guess many powers or individual players will start to recruit cooks they know.”
“We must act quickly!”
“The hidden condition for visiting the map this month is that you must bring a cook. Without a cook, you wouldn’t dare go into the map.”
“Up until now, we still aren’t clear on what ’food’ is supposed to be.”
“Whether it should be freshly cooked food or if fast food products or rations would suffice.”
“But a cook is definitely the most standard answer.”
“We need to act imdiately, right now.”
“If we’re a bit late, perhaps all the cooks in Yancheng will have been recruited by others. Actually, it doesn’t have to be a cook, as long as they can cook food.”
“But…”
He turned to look at Tuberculosis Rabbit and saw the silence in each other’s eyes.
Neither of them knew how to cook.
Who could have imagined that a day would co in the future when a cook would beco an extrely popular and necessary profession?
It’s utterly absurd.
