The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 435 Game is online! Additional challenge! (asking for monthly votes)

When a company’s flagship masterpiece is launched, it is natural that it will receive maximum publicity.

The homepage of the Dream Building Game Platform has been down for several days in a row for "Sail in the Blue Sea" and will continue to be down.

It is also a routine operation for the official account of "Sail in the Blue Sea" to release various co-creations and video incentives.

Even Xu Meng came out to help with publicity.

However, his publicity method is not so conventional:

"Sail in the Blue Sea is now online, welcome everyone to come and play!

To increase the challenge, I plan to add some "out-of-the-box" challenges to the game.

[Pirate Ranking]:

If you have your own pirate ship and you plunder other merchant ships, pirate ships or warships, you can get corresponding points based on the scale and harvest of the plunder.

The top 10 fleets with the highest points in the monthly ranking will receive bonuses to plundering reputation and morale.

The probability of NPC pirates surrendering increases.

The captain of the fleet ranked first can obtain the title of [Pirate King]!
Rank in the top three for three consecutive months to unlock the Privateering License quest line.

[Navy Ranking]:

You can get corresponding points by participating in the escort of merchant ships and the suppression of pirates.

The top 10 warships with the highest points in the monthly rankings will receive naval reputation bonuses and morale bonuses.

The probability of high-potential NPCs joining the army is increased.

The captain of the warship ranked first can be awarded the title of [Navy Commander].

Rank in the top three in points for three consecutive months to unlock the noble status quest line.

[Maritime Merchant Ranking]:

Corresponding points can be obtained by engaging in maritime commercial activities.

The top 10 caravans with the highest points in the monthly ranking will receive bonuses to their maritime reputation and trade negotiations.

The commercial tax quota is reduced by 20%.

The captain of the fleet ranked first can obtain the title of [Great Sea Merchant].

Rank in the top three in points for three consecutive months to unlock the Merchant Alliance quest line.

……

The three major lists are launched simultaneously in [Open World] and [Adventurer Mode], and the rankings are calculated independently.

As compensation for the difficulty and cost of [Adventurer Mode].

In the first three months after the game is launched, the top three players on the three major lists under [Adventurer Mode] can share a cash prize of 5 million in a ratio of 3:2:100!
Of course, the same old saying:

It is not recommended for psychologically fragile players to choose [Adventurer Mode] at the beginning.

Finally, I wish you all a happy game! 」
-
Although at this moment, everyone's attention is focused on "Sail in the Blue Sea", and they are eager to log into the game world.

But today is Friday, a workday after all.

There are also a large number of players who are trapped in the office, unable to log into the game, and can only satisfy their curiosity by browsing information related to various new games.

As soon as Xu Meng’s “challenge status” came out, it quickly attracted the attention of a large number of players.

The number of likes and comments skyrocketed:
“Why is there only a bonus in [Adventurer Mode]?”

"Is there any need to ask? Of course, Boss Xu wants to trick everyone into playing hardcore!"

"I think we should give more bonuses to sea merchants. It's too miserable for them to be hunted down by others."

"You still say you don't recommend it... You clearly have ulterior motives!"

"Who would fall for such an obvious trap?"

……

Of course some people were fooled.

And there are a lot of them!
Various anchors including Lenny from Phuket, Orange Juice, Niiiko, etc. all think that this one-life death mode is too hype!
When almost all game anchors in the world are broadcasting "Sail in the Blue Sea", if you want to attract more attention, you must take risky moves!

and so--

“[Adventurer Mode], let’s go!”

Orange Juice chooses to log in directly.

[Detected that the player has entered Adventurer Mode for the first time.]
[In Adventurer Mode, once a character dies, they cannot be resurrected. Do you know?]
"I'm aware of it." Orange Juice clicked to confirm.

[The Adventurer Mode is extremely difficult, and it is recommended that players gain experience in other modes before entering this mode.]
"No suggestions accepted!" Orange Juice crossed out the reminder.

[......]
[have a nice trip!]
……

Orange Juice not only played the hardcore mode himself, but also encouraged Brave Sniper, Huanyue and Qihuahua to play together.

But the Heroic Sniper was tortured by iron for a long time during the internal test, and now he can't wait to know the main storyline.

And they are no longer lacking in popularity - the [Honorary Player] status brings them a constant stream of attention and natural traffic. So they want to play the story mode more.

“[Story Mode], let’s go!”

The character has already been created, and the brave sniper enters the game directly.

The moment he opened his eyes, he found himself standing on a vast blue ocean, with the waves of the Caribbean Sea rippling gently beneath his feet.

Surprisingly gentle.

In front of him, there were three mirrors.

It contains all the characters he created - based on real body shapes and looks, but beautified by 20% to make them look more handsome.

However, the self in the mirror is dressed differently.

In the middle is an image of a pirate wearing a turban, a white coarse shirt and brown trousers, with a machete and a wine jug hanging around his waist.

On the left is a Royal Navy man wearing a clean and tidy Royal Navy uniform, a military cap, lace decorated cuffs, and even an exquisite saber.

The person on the right is not the expected image of a businessman, but a civilian dressed neatly and simply.

However, on the shelf behind him, there are a scale, a compass and a pistol, which seem to imply several different plot development routes.

Obviously, these three mirrors were for him to choose an identity as a start.

The brave sniper didn't hesitate too much: "Of course it's a pirate!"

“‘Sail Away’ has always been focusing on promoting pirates, so the pirate storyline must be the most exciting!”

"I've had enough of ironwork on the shore!"

"I want freedom and the sea!"

The brave sniper took three steps forward and reached out to touch the mirror.

The mirror surface turned into liquid and instantly wrapped around his entire body along the palm that touched it!

The brave sniper closed his eyes subconsciously.

When he opened his eyes again, he had turned into the pirate in the mirror, standing on a small sailboat about five meters long.

The sampan was swaying and my ankles were soaked in water.

The heroic sniper stared blankly at the leaking boat, somewhat confused.

At this moment, a frivolous voice sounded above my head:

"Boy, don't just stand there. If we don't clear the water, our ship will sink."

The brave sniper craned his neck and saw a sloppy man on the small "lookout tower" on top of the boat's mast, looking into the distance with a monocular telescope.

The moment he looked up, the man also put away the telescope and looked at him.

The familiar dark red headscarf, the messy braids, the pendant on the ear, the coquettish mustache...

How familiar it looks!

Isn’t this the NPC captain who was betrayed by his crew members and forced to walk off the gangplank and fall into the sea in the plot trailer?
"Captain Jack?!"

Captain Jack raised his eyebrows: "I am glad that you still remember that I am the captain - although your excitement is a bit like a mockery in this leaky boat."

"So... my dear [Shipwreck]'s first mate, Mr. 'Little Key', can we start clearing the water?"

The brave sniper looked at the port dock which was still far away, and then at the water which was getting deeper and deeper on the ship.

Helplessly, he picked up a wooden bucket and poured the water out of the boat.

While splashing, he asked, "Captain, won't you help?"

"Of course not." Captain Jack shook his head. "That's the first mate's job. As the captain, my job is to lead you forward."

Heroic Sniper: "Then can we make a deal: Don't call me Xiao Ji, call me A Ji?"

"Of course, Xiaoji, your request is easily met."

What the hell!
The brave sniper wanted to kill the cheap captain on the spot.

But looking at the dock in the distance, he helplessly lowered his head and continued to scoop water.
-
At the same time, Long Chengfei finally achieved his goal during the internal test -

Hunt down the pirates!

He did not operate merchant ships like he did during the internal test, but chose to start with the navy.

At the beginning of the story, he is standing on the deck of a warship and sees a group of pirates looting a merchant ship from afar.

Under the captain's command, the warship raised its full sails and rushed towards the pirate ship at full speed!

The war is about to begin! ——
Qihuahua hesitated for a long time between the pirates and civilians.

Finally, I decided to choose a civilian first and try the maritime merchant storyline.

She plans to enter the open world and form a large-scale business alliance with her fans after becoming familiar with this gameplay.

Monopolize the Caribbean trade market and become a super rich woman!
