I am a reincarnation player.

"Well, I'm going for the fantasy route, and your stuff is more suitable for science fiction players."

"That's not necessarily true. We've had ether particle magicians come to us. They use a staff in one hand to shoot fireballs, and a Gatling beam cannon in the other. Flying spells are nowhere near as useful as a jet pack."

Damn, it takes talent to play like this.

Yuki was too tired to complain. He looked around. Across the operating area was a warehouse. Some players wearing Chinese Taoist robes were standing in front of the counter, selecting machine guns that were more than two meters long.

"Can you produce Chaos Items?"

"That's not called a Chaos Item. It's more like the weapons of the Defense Forces. There's no way to upgrade them. Of course, we also provide Chaos Item modification services."

"The weapons of the defense forces are very useful to you?"

"Of course, that kind of strange function can be used as a reference, but it can only be used as a reference."

Silver Hand led the way, taking Yuki through one area after another. The facilities of 'Steel Faith' were very large and covered various categories.

Only then did Yuki realize that Iron Faith was the largest player organization of the 'Mechanical Believers', and Silver Hand was a mid-level cadre in charge of the 'Night City' sector, which was considered to be a good use of his talents.

By the way, Yuuki also roughly understood his own position and why that "Ouroboros" would extend an olive branch to him.

In the border area, Iron Faith is considered an upper-middle level organization. One of their manager-level cadres is rated as Monster II, but Silver Hand is definitely no match for Yuuki in a one-on-one fight.

Of course, it is difficult for Yuki to kill a digital life.

The two sides excel in different areas, so how can they be evaluated simply by their combat effectiveness?

Therefore, Johnny Silverhand's enthusiasm is not only about sharing life and death, but also about recognizing Yuuki's strength. He knows how valuable a player who can complete the "epic achievement" is.

Yuki had no intention of prying into the organization's internal information. While searching for acquaintances, he sincerely admired, "You guys are doing a big business."

"As I said, you are a well-known figure in the entire border area. How about joining?" Silver Hand took a sip of beer and asked casually.

Humph, your thoughts are indeed not simple.

Yuki had expected this, but he didn't feel disgusted. This was a recognition of himself. Besides, apart from the senior, who else would have such simple thoughts?

"We are not from the same faction, how can we join?"

"There are plenty of ways to make you an ally, or even conquer a dungeon at the same time. This kind of item is precious, but you are worth it." Johnny Silverhand said seriously.

"You kid really have a purpose."

"Haha, it's just a request from above. You have to write a report like those hunters do when they return." The man patted Yuuki's shoulder without any pressure. "You're famous now, think about it."

Damn it, I want to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, who wants this shitty reputation.

Yuki cursed inwardly, but knew it was inevitable. In the reincarnation game, where there are friends, there will be enemies, such as the 'One Hundred Demons Night Parade' and the 'Monster Front'. He didn't believe that the Blood Demon and the Real Person would go back without reporting.

"Let's see how much benefit you can give us."

"Okay, let's talk about it now." Silver Hand pushed open another door. This place looked like an office. On the left was a wine cabinet that occupied the entire wall, and on the right were some holographic projections.

Yuuki took a look at the Iron Hands logo and some portraits of characters, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Kamina? 02? Asuka?

This is a huge gap. Is EVA also considered a machine?

"Those are the big guys in our camp. What do you think? Do you think we are strong?"

"What level is considered a big boss?"

"Epic player, don't worry, as long as you don't die young, you will become one of them sooner or later."

Johnny Silverhand has already guessed the reason why Yuuki must kill the Queen, and this is also the most important point.

It is difficult to unite player C in a dungeon, but it is not impossible. However, to complete the epic achievement, you have to complete the dungeon.

An epic player, no wonder he is called a big boss.

Yuuki also showed longing. After comprehensively evaluating the monsters, there are epics and legends. According to the game settings and Johnny Silverhand's statement, there is a gap between monsters and epics.

These are two different life forms, the real high-end combat power among countless players.

Ding.

A bottle of whiskey on ice was placed on the table. Johnny Silverhand threw a cigar to Yuuki, lit one for himself, and then took out a document from the drawer.

"The information you want, what I know is all written down here. If you don't know, you have to ask the boss above in person."

The word "personally" is used very cleverly.

Yuki remained calm and carefully read the contents. Most of them were records about various factions. After all, Feilun was just an ordinary player and didn't know many inside stories. Besides—

It's free.

There are countless factions in the Samsara game, and no one knows how many have obtained the qualifications to connect to the border. The "Mechanical Believer" marks out some powerful factions, such as "Hunter", "One Hundred Demons Night Parade", "Ether Particles" and so on. The symbol of a powerful faction is that it has multiple epic players.

Slowly sweeping around, he saw that the powerful camp was densely packed, but Yuki didn't feel much pressure.

There are both hostility and cooperation between each camp. How can the likes and dislikes of an individual represent the likes and dislikes of all players? For example, if he makes an enemy with the Blood Demon, at most he will offend the team behind him, the "Monster Front". It is impossible for someone like Philen to change his opinion of him.

There are too many, so many that even the most ambitious person cannot rule across camps.

Yuki found some details that the relationship between the same camps would not be good, for example, the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" has been fighting among itself, which is consistent with his guess.

If the Demon Slayer Corps and Gojo Satoru became players, it would be impossible for them to cooperate with evil spirits and cursed spirits. The hatred between them is far greater than that between players from other factions.

"Are the ones you marked in red the more aggressive ones?"

"Well, just be careful when you encounter them. Some of the players there are quite tricky."

Yuki nodded. These included things that sounded dangerous, such as "War Maniac", "Hall of Valor", "Book of Hundred Demons", "End of the World", "War Orphans", etc. He had encountered some of them before.

Zhan Kuang, have they passed the assessment as well? That’s right, he has been trapped in the bloody disaster for who knows how many years.

Yuki thought of Wu Lei'an and kept it in mind, then found that the information was not that detailed, for example, the talents of each camp were not mentioned.

He had a good emotional intelligence and didn't intend to exploit this friendship to the fullest. He turned the page of the projection and immediately frowned.

"What? Are you surprised?" Johnny Silverhand had been observing Yuki's expression and felt that this powerful friend was very ignorant, as if he was walking alone without any predecessors.

"It's really unexpected. Don't look at me like that. Relying on friends when going out is my life motto."

Yuki didn't bother to hide it. The second page was mainly about mission settings. He knew that the main ones were faction missions, but things like 'hunting missions', 'judgment missions' and 'destruction missions' were unexpected and sounded terrifying.

"The Judgment Mission is carried out by the Judge. What is this Judge?"

"It's a cross-faction player organization. We don't have much intel on it, but everyone says they're thugs from the Samsara game." Johnny Silverhand lit a cigarette and experienced an epic lung burn. "The players who went in are all elites, you know the Hundred Eyes of True Knowledge."

Yuki nodded. If he hadn't made friends with Johnny Silverhand, he would have been ready to spend a lot of money to find this player organization that claimed to know everything.

"They are related. I was told to tell you something. Don't get in touch with the Hundred Eyes of Truth. You can learn everything from them, and they can learn everything about you."

Gulu.

Yuki swallowed subconsciously. For some reason, he felt a little nervous when looking at the 'Judge', and he knew that he had too many secrets that could not be seen by others.

"Thank you. If I have the chance, I would like to meet those bosses in person." Yucheng returned the favor. These people were very decent. They guessed that he had a secret, but did not use such a thing to threaten him.

"I've been waiting for you to say that, my friend." Silver Hand laughed and personally lit a cigarette for Jiecheng before saying, "Hunting missions involve players killing each other, and usually there's a limit on the number of survivors. Destruction missions primarily target indigenous people. You should understand what I mean."

"One is internal fighting, the other is unity against the outside world, but there is no need to do this in the reincarnation game." Yuki didn't quite understand. Hunting missions were fine, as killing each other among players was a daily routine. Destroying a world was something that the reincarnation game could do on its own.

"You still don't understand. The game itself has never had a sense of existence. At least within our camp, there's no record of Him personally taking action. The players are His slaves and weapons."

Yuki was stunned and his pupils suddenly contracted, which confirmed a guess he had made a long time ago.

The reincarnation game is just a program that acts according to the settings. Just like targeting myself, if someone wants to kill me, I will never do it myself. I can only create opportunities for players to solve the problem.

This is the case from Li Dan to Adam. The most direct role of the reincarnation game is to adjust the difficulty of the copy.

And from 'destruction' we can extend another conjecture: those copies may not be created by the game, but more like some kind of erosion.

"Why destroy a world?"

"There are many reasons, and I can't answer them for now. Anyway, don't be a hero when you encounter it. Just kill it with a heart as hard as iron." Silver Hand warned. From the "Global Insect Plague", it can be seen that Yuki has a strange kindness.

This is not a bad thing, at least it is suitable to be friends.

"I know. Since the reincarnation game can't take action, there must be something wrong with that 'Judge'. The target of the judgment mission should also be individual players."

"You are very smart."

I wish I weren't that smart.

Yuki smiled bitterly. In a sense, Li Dan and Adam were also "judges", the kind of peripheral employees without a regular staff, and there was a high probability that they would have to deal with each other in the future.

"I'm really lucky to know who the enemy we're going to face is in advance from my friend."

He breathed a sigh of relief, slid his fingers, and looked at the last page.

Yuki's question was simple. He wanted to know what those things that existed across dungeons were, like Khorne, or the evil god from The Officials. The answer from the Mechanical Believer was also simple:

Player or unknown.

.......

It turns out that I rely on friends when I go out. I saved thousands of points on this trip and was also warned in advance.

Yuki was walking on the road, throwing a metal ball in his hand. He really made a lot of money this time. It was impossible for ordinary players to get that information in a systematic way, and they would also have to take the risk of being defrauded.

As for the powerful factions, why would they bother you if you don't have connections? So ordinary players can either get it from seniors or spend money to buy it from the "Hundred Eyes of True Knowledge". The former depends on the harmony of the faction, and the latter is even more dangerous. Anyway, Yuki doesn't dare to go to them.

The mechanical believers really have high hopes for Yuki and send him a complete set of intelligence, and the price is an alliance between the two sides. In certain key tasks, Yuki is obligated to provide support.

The cost is negligible, but the thought of the 'Judge' makes him worried, so he specifically lets the seniors act alone, and the relationship between the two sides must be more secretive.

"You're right to look for those people. We don't have any systematic intelligence here." Levi walked beside them, looking nonchalant. "But you're really not straightforward. You actually doubt them."

Yuki contacted him through the dagger as soon as he came out of "Night City". As the King of Gou, he naturally would not trust anyone easily, so he compared some of the information with Levi.

"If I hadn't been so careful, we would have died in the dungeon long ago."

"Tsk, do you really think I can't survive without you?" The captain scoffed, glancing around. "Where are those women? Why didn't I see them?"

"They and I are not from the same faction. We just have some friendship. After leaving the dungeon, of course we will go our separate ways."

Levi hesitated for a moment. After returning, he also looked up the "Headhunters", but no one had heard of this camp. However, the chaos props could not have problems. Sorajima Yuuki and Sakurajima Mai and others were indeed not in the same camp.

"Not bad. Women will only slow down your sword movement. Come with me."

But the beautiful legs in stockings can increase my attack speed.

Yuuki complained quietly and immediately followed.

This time, he didn't go to the previous trading place, but went with Levi to another trading place owned by the Hunter. In addition to wanting to explore the border area more deeply, there was another important reason:

As a friend, you can get a 20% discount on the transaction.

The 20% discount was too attractive to the poor guy, so he agreed without hesitation.

After passing through the border area, they soon arrived at a forest. Yuki was stunned. The sudden appearance of a forest among the large number of strange buildings was very abrupt. It was no wonder that it was listed as a powerful organization because of its grandeur.

The woods were a grey-black, like some kind of pine, with a few small cabins scattered among them – literally, hunter cabins.

"That area is a hunting training ground. Utilizing space-folding technology, it can create city-sized areas and simulate any terrain. It's completely free to use. But I advise you not to go there. We'll also be recording various parameters of our prey."

"That's the hunting commission room. If you have any enemies you want to track down or hunt, you can submit a commission. I'll give you a 20% discount."

.......

This is the Hunter's office. It's not very busy, but there are still many players visiting. However, most of them hide very well and don't even want to show their eyes.

Mechanical believers deal in arms, hunters are killers, and why are all my friends in the business of making money and killing people? Okay, I am not a good person myself.

Yuuki felt it was a bit ironic. Levi said that this was the "Hunter" faction talent pushed to its limit. Their faction talent was called "Hunting Beacon", which was the one that Denise used to locate the cursed spirit.

As long as they have a good understanding of the target, they can track it across dungeons. Their actions are quick and efficient, and they are well received by players.

"You operate on a squad basis?"

"Each faction is organized differently. We won't indulge in pleasure like those bastards. Of course, there are factions within the Hunters who are unwilling to follow this path."

“How did these people solve it?”

"Just ignore them. You can't expect all players in a faction to unite. Just follow the Hunter King."

Hunter King? The pioneer of the Hunter camp?

Yuki's mind moved. After the two camps came into contact, he almost understood:

A camp can have many player teams, but the largest one is usually led by a pioneer, which is equivalent to the camp's business card. After countless rounds of internal friction, it controls the right to speak.

For example, 'Iron Faith' can almost represent 'Mechanical Believers'. Newly ascended players will definitely try their best to join this kind of team to seek shelter, and then it will be like a snowball, the strong will get stronger and the weak will get weaker.

They drain all the resources of a camp and usually move their headquarters to the border area, where the consumption is greater but it is also more convenient.
