The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 499 Xu Meng: My fist is hard! (Please give me double the monthly ticket)
The last of the warriors could no longer resist the turbulent current and were washed down the mountain in the ocean.

The old men opened their eyes wide in unwillingness and looked towards the top of the mountain.

The sun shines on the layers of clouds, and the hazy light and shadows are gradually becoming clear.

The sound of the grand bell still echoes in my ears.

The invisible impact continued to vibrate, pushing away the clouds that blocked the view, and a large golden clock briefly appeared in everyone's sight.

Under the golden bell is an equally golden corner of the city.

The players on the ocean gave up struggling, took out their monoculars, and stared wide-eyed to see more details.

Exclamations rang out on each ship:

"Holy crap! The Golden Bell! It really exists!"

"It's not just the clock, the roofs of the houses below are also glowing! Aren't they made of gold?"

"Golden Country?? My god, how much money does that cost?"

"If we move this out, we'll be rich!"

"How much the hell does this cost? It's enough to buy a house, right?"

……

Today, the gold price of "Bi Hai Yang Sailing" is no longer as exaggerated as when the server was first launched, when "1 pound in the game is equal to 1 pound in reality".

But now 1 pound in the game is still worth half a pound in real life.

This value has remained incredibly stable, and may even rise slightly from time to time.

——Often occurs after large-scale conflicts.

Whether it's a few ships clashing at sea or a large number of players clashing on land, it can result in huge losses.

It goes without saying that a boat weighs tens of thousands of pounds.

The same goes for player conflict.

Hardcore mode has nothing to say:

The winner takes all, and the loser loses everything - even the clothes on his body will be exposed.

A few days ago, an incredible "underwear collector" appeared on the hardcore server, showing off his collection of "underwear of the dead in battle" on social networks.

The softcore mode - now everyone has started to call it the [open world] mode, as the corresponding name of the hardcore gameplay [adventurer mode], is relatively gentle.

The equipment on your body will not be exploded.

——Unless the opponent has special "stealing" skills or props, there is a very low probability of stealing.

However, the money, consumable items and supplies on you will be lost at random.

The worst brother so far is a captain.

When they were emptying their savings to purchase supplies, they were accidentally involved in a conflict, and half of the supplies for the ocean voyage were lost.

The loss converted into real currency is close to 8000 yuan!
From then on, other players would bring a group of younger brothers to accompany and protect them when they went ashore to purchase goods.

All supplies will not be placed on one person.

After a large-scale conflict, a large number of players are eager to replenish supplies and repair equipment, which will naturally push up the price of gold slightly.

The operation of the overall economic system is, of course, much more complicated than this.

But players don’t need to know so much, it is enough to know that the price of gold is stable.

Because this means:

The gold in the game is also valuable!
Not to mention anything else, just that golden bell, if I can get it I'll sell it.

Excluding its historical value and collection value, if you count it purely as gold, it can be exchanged for a real house!
At least!

Who wouldn’t be moved by this? !
At this moment, under the mountains piled up by the sea water, the hearts of thousands of people were surging.

——But I can only sigh in despair.

How easy is it to rush up a mountain like this against the current?
In such a place where there are no assault boats, no helicopters, and even no mental abilities or organ mutations to enhance physical fitness.

How to get up here?

This thing is even a timed challenge!
——After everyone was pushed down the mountain, they were passionately discussing countermeasures, but they found that the bell ringing suddenly stopped, the clouds slowly rolled back, and the altitude of the ocean mountain was getting lower and lower.

Until it disappears completely and the sea returns to a calm state.

This is going to be a headache for everyone.

Seeing that there was no hope of advancing today, everyone started sending this news to group chats to brainstorm.

But it is no longer necessary now.

——The brave sniper has been broadcasting live!
The player circle is already boiling!
The golden clock and city under the sun dazzled countless players.

In the live broadcast room of the heroic sniper, the comments were all "I'm fucking here!"

[Polaris Shipping] has once again received a large number of orders for paddles, and the number of players urging them to open the [Ocean Mountain Route] is overwhelming!
Qihuahua was too surprised to start adjusting the transport capacity quickly. In the discussion among a large number of players, various ideas of climbing the ocean mountain also emerged:

"In this era, ships have limits! But players don't! As long as your level is high enough, you can swim up!"

"You can tame sharks in the previous [Ocean Survival Contest], so it should be possible here too! Ride on a shark! Otherwise, try a whale!"

"I've told you this eight hundred times, hot air balloons! It's absolutely not safe on the island, you must bring your own boat and team!"

"Fuck it! I'm going to row my boat up there! Wait, I'm going to call Grandpa to help! He was a member of the provincial dragon boat team when he was young, and now that Xu Meng has made him younger, he just happens to have endless energy."

……

These players who come up with ideas are not just talking for fun.

Instead, he thought about it, called his friends and took real action.

This is a suite!

Maybe even more than one set!
It really is full of action!

The "digital gold rush" began on this day and truly swept the world!
……

Even the island under the sea has become more attractive!
The Sky Island is so valuable, how could the underwater island be any worse?
Even everyone's attention has been diverted to the sky island, so the competitiveness on the seabed has been greatly reduced, and the probability of success is higher!
As for diving...

Soon someone remembered that in the main storyline, transforming into a skeleton would save them from breathing, so they tried to cross the storm and march to the Island of Death.

Want to see if the [Cursed Gold] is still there.

Various reliable and unreliable traditional diving methods were also tried one by one.

Others frantically searched for props that would allow them to breathe underwater.

……

Of course, players around the world have not forgotten the development team and Xu Meng, and many people have complained that the two islands are unscientific.

The development team designed these two islands without providing a clear method for landing.

Ulterior motives!

The development team remained silent.

Instead, it was Xu Meng who popped up.

But what he said was not about the island of "Sailing in the Blue Sea".

Instead, the [Sprawling City Expansion Voting] is even more heated and has reached a fever pitch.

Today is the last day for voting.

There are only two hours left before the voting deadline, and people from all walks of life are frantically canvassing for votes.

Before this, Xu Meng had been sitting quietly watching the fun.

But an unexpected situation occurred, and he could no longer sit still, so he had to go out and canvass for votes himself.

Instigated by a group of unruly people who only wanted to create chaos in the world, his [Private Marseille] statue actually made it into the top 10!
Right at number 10!
He could never have imagined that there were so many functional buildings and spectacular sights that everyone wanted, and 10 places were not enough.

But with the quota so limited, the unruly people from all over the world can still squeeze out a precious spot and use it for the whole work!

Are you sick? !

Even if you erect a proper statue for me - although it is a bit embarrassing, I will endure it.

What's up with the statue bowing in apology?
We can't go back on our words when building dreams.

Once the results are finalized, it’s time to really fix it!
Therefore, he must seize the last moment and try to reverse this result.

“No, what are you thinking about every day?
Friends who haven't voted yet, please help!
Go vote for the 11th-ranked [Ancient Roman Super Baths] and push the 10th-ranked statue down!

It’s okay if you don’t want to vote for that one, just don’t vote for the 10th place!
begging!
If you guys really build this thing, don’t expect to see me in Mansheng City anymore!

I have to save face too!"

Xu Meng also has to save face.

If you log into the sprawling city and see yourself bowing and apologizing, who can stand it? ?
He doesn't want to be a cyber Qin Hui!!!
When netizens saw Xu Meng begging for mercy, they all laughed miserably:

"Hahaha, you finally can't sit still anymore?"

"I thought you didn't care!"

"Okay, okay. Now that you've spoken, we can't just pretend we didn't see it."

"Super bath? Is this your XP, Boss Xu?!"

……

Xu Meng felt somewhat relieved after seeing everyone's comments.

"It's OK. We are all reasonable. It's not that we can't communicate."

But as soon as I uttered this sentence, I saw that the voting data for [Ancient Roman Super Baths] and [Private Marseille Statue] began to soar at the same time!
Looking at this group of players who said "OK, OK" while voting for [Private Marseille Statue]...

Xu Meng: My fist is hard!
