Game Cultivation World: I'm really playing games

Chapter 418: Opening Overseas Servers

"Xiao Qi, I don't know if you and Tianhan have heard that this game plans to start testing in overseas regions at the end of this month." Dundao, who had just received the news, was filled with excitement and could not help but rush over to share the news.

Xiao Qi frowned slightly, a hint of surprise on his face, and responded, "Oh? Tianhan and I just returned from Loulan after going through hardships to retrieve the Liangzhou Qiyun Mountain and River Map. I really didn't know about this."

Blunt Knife's eyes lit up as he spoke excitedly, "Then I have to chat with you guys. I heard that this game is first testing servers in neighboring countries. This is just a preliminary test. Even if the response is good, it will still be some time before the servers are merged. If everything goes well later, they will expand the scope and bring the game to the global market."

This is huge news! Our game is incredibly popular in China, but we've struggled to break into the overseas market. We're so excited to see some action this time!"

Xue Ningmeng blinked her bright eyes and asked playfully, "Blun Dao, are you itching to join us in the overseas servers?"

Blunt Knife smiled innocently, scratched his head, and said a little sheepishly, "Hey, I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss it. We finally have such a popular game. It would be so glorious if we could also make a name for ourselves overseas."

However, I heard that the competition in overseas regions is very fierce, so we must plan carefully and make sufficient preparations."

Xiao Qi nodded, his expression becoming serious. He said, "Well, you're right. Right now, our situation isn't completely stable. Even if we're just testing, once overseas players become familiar with the game and the server merge happens, it's bound to bring a lot of changes to our current situation."

"It's not as serious as you say. They started later than us and are far less powerful. They can't threaten us at all." Xue Ningmeng said disapprovingly.

Xiao Qi still looked worried and said, "But the game's realm has been suppressed and not opened up. As time goes by, they will catch up sooner or later."

Xue Ning Meng said confidently, "Don't worry. After the last cheating incident, a certain game is considering opening up subsequent levels while banning cheats."

"This is really good news. In this way, Tianhan's realm can finally break through normally." Xiaoqi showed a happy smile on his face.

On the other side, in Cao's camp, Shi Potianjing was riding comfortably on the back of the black dragon, swinging the spear in his hand casually, making a clanging sound.

As the most well-informed young man in the game, he had already heard the news that the game would soon open servers in overseas neighboring countries.

"Haha, it will be interesting to see the servers in the neighboring overseas countries open. But there is still some time before the server merger, so it's a good time to make arrangements in advance." Shi Potianjing raised his lips with a confident smile, his eyes showing a bit of eagerness to try.

Young Master Hua approached, fanning himself with a thoughtful expression. "Brother Shi, we're now facing off against Xue Tianhan and the others. Even though this new server is only open to neighboring countries and isn't currently compatible, there's no guarantee there might be changes. We still have to be cautious."

Shi Potianjing raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, "What are you afraid of? How powerful can those players from the neighboring countries be? We can take this opportunity to establish some advantages in the test zone. Once the servers are merged, no matter what tricks those people in the south use, they will be wary of us."

Yunwu Piaoxue arrived lightly on her unicorn, laughing sweetly, "Brother Shi is right. We at Tianfeng Pavilion are full of experts, so why worry about not being able to handle those new players? This testing period is a good opportunity for us to test the waters. Maybe we can spread our reputation among the neighboring countries and regions first, and then intimidate other factions when the servers merge."

At this time, Feng Yi rode Qiongqi and slowly came over, his face stern: "Don't take it lightly, even if it's just a test in the neighboring countries, you can't be careless.

Senior Zhang Lu is already arranging countermeasures. We will follow his instructions and first establish an intelligence network in the test area to understand the situation of those players. At the same time, we must not let down our guard against the forces in the south."

After hearing this, everyone calmed down and began to discuss in low voices the possible development strategies in the overseas test area, and how to obtain as much advantageous information as possible before the server merger without affecting the existing layout of the confrontation with the southern forces.

On the other side of Sun Quan's camp, Iron Horse and Ice River appeared in his dream and sat on Prison Ox, frowning slightly, as if thinking about something.

Troublemaker Three Kingdoms rushed over, carrying a large sword. "Iron Horse, I heard that the overseas servers in neighboring countries are about to start testing. Should we join in?"

Tie Ma Bing He Ru Meng Lai's eyes were firm. "Of course we will participate. Now that we have joined forces with Cao Ying to fight against Xue Tianhan and the others, this is a good opportunity to improve our strength. We will grow and develop in the test area. After the server merger, we will have more say in future cooperation with Cao Ying."

"But what if the players from the neighboring countries collude with Xue Tianhan and his people?" Mo Wen Hua Xie asked worriedly.

Tie Ma Bing He entered Meng Lai and pondered for a moment: "So we have to plan ahead. Bing Xue No. 17 has already gone to inquire about the game market in neighboring countries. When she comes back, we will make detailed plans.

Furthermore, although we are cooperating with Cao Ying, we cannot rely solely on them. We must have our own countermeasures. For now, we must first gain a foothold in the test area and establish our own sphere of influence, while keeping an eye on the movements of the forces to the south.

As he was speaking, Ice Seventeen came galloping over on Tengu. He dismounted and said anxiously, "Brother Tiema, I've heard some news. The gaming environment and player habits in neighboring countries are somewhat different from ours. Their attitude towards the faction confrontation in the game is still unclear, and we don't know which side they will lean towards for now.

However, they are all looking forward to this test, and many players are already preparing for it.”

Tie Ma Bing He Ru Meng Lai's expression froze. "It seems the situation is a bit complicated. Everyone, buckle up and quickly formulate a development plan for the test zone. First, establish a foothold there and build a stronghold. At the same time, keep a close eye on the movements of other forces, especially Xue Tianhan and his group. We can't let them take advantage of us during this period."

The players in Sun Quan's camp nodded one after another, the atmosphere became tense, and everyone began to prepare for the upcoming overseas server testing in neighboring countries.

They understood that although this test period was not a server merger, it was a critical stage before the merger, which would inevitably bring new challenges and opportunities. They needed to seize the opportunity to gain a place in this ever-changing game world, while gaining an advantageous position in cooperating with Cao Ying and fighting against the southern forces.

?

As the time for the surrounding tests drew closer, Liu Bei's tent south of the Yangtze River was brightly lit.

Xue Tianhan, dressed in a dark robe, his brows slightly furrowed as he stared intently at the map before him. Beside him, Xiao Qi held the Heavenly Sword, his eyes radiating a sense of determination and calmness. Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and the others sat nearby, the atmosphere heavy with emotion.

Liu Bei stroked his beard and spoke first, "Now that the servers in neighboring overseas countries are about to be tested, the situation will become even more complicated.

Although we already control a large area of ​​the southern land, we must not let our guard down. Although the servers are not merged during this test period, once they are merged, the addition of new players will definitely change the situation."

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly, waving his feather fan and saying, "My Lord, you are absolutely right. Once the servers in the neighboring countries are launched, new forces will surely rise in the test zone. After the servers are merged, the balance between the various forces will likely be disrupted."

We need to plan ahead so we can respond appropriately, while also consolidating our existing territory.”

Xue Tianhan raised his head and said with a firm gaze, "Yes, we still have room for expansion in the south. If we can occupy these areas before merging with neighboring countries, we can not only expand our sphere of influence, but also obtain more resources and enhance our strength.

During the testing period, we can also send people to monitor the situation in neighboring countries and regions to understand their strengths and strategies in advance so that we can respond after the server merger."

Xiao Qi stroked her hair and continued, "Besides, we also have those advanced weapons and special supplies. If we can use them properly, they will definitely play a huge role in the process of expanding our territory.

During the testing period, we can also consider using these advantages to establish connections with or intimidate players in neighboring countries and regions, where possible, to let them know our strength."

Liu Bei nodded slightly, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes. "Master Xue and Fairy Xiaoqi are right. However, while we expand our territory, we also need to stabilize our rear. Those important formations are related to our foundation and must not be lost."

Xue Tianhan hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my lord. I have arranged capable people to preside over the important formations. They are all highly skilled and will definitely ensure safety."

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said, "When expanding our territory, we can adopt a cautious strategy. We should first send out a small group of elite troops to conduct exploratory operations, understand the local power distribution and terrain conditions, and then concentrate our superior forces to capture the territory.

At the same time, special materials were used to build strong fortifications to ensure that the newly occupied areas could be firmly defended.

For testing servers in neighboring countries, we can arrange for some clever spies to infiltrate and understand their game modes and player characteristics."

Xiao Qi nodded in agreement. "Military Advisor, what you said is absolutely correct. Furthermore, we can recruit local talent from the newly conquered areas and use them for our own purposes. This will not only enhance our strength, but also allow us to better govern these areas."

In the test area, we can also try to cooperate with some friendly players in neighboring countries to lay the groundwork for the situation after the server merger, and at the same time, we can also obtain more intelligence. "

Xue Tianhan added, "Furthermore, we need to strengthen our intelligence gathering efforts. Send capable spies to surrounding areas to learn about the movements of players in neighboring overseas countries and regions, as well as the plans of other forces."

Only by knowing both ourselves and our enemies can we fight a hundred battles without defeat. We must especially monitor the actions of other factions in the test zone to prevent them from gaining too great an advantage before the server merge, potentially impacting our deployment in the south."

After hearing this, Liu Bei's face was filled with relief. "With all of you planning so diligently, I, Liu Bei, have no reason to worry about not accomplishing my great cause. Then I will follow your advice and begin preparations immediately."

Everyone stood up and left as ordered.

Xue Tianhan and Xiao Qi walked out of the tent side by side. The night breeze blew by. Xiao Qi gently leaned on Xue Tianhan's shoulder and said softly, "Tianhan, the situation is complicated this time. You and I must act with caution."

Xue Tianhan held Xiao Qi's hand, warmly and firmly: "Don't worry, Xiao Qi. With you by my side, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we can overcome them."

The two smiled at each other, their eyes full of trust and determination in each other.
