Chapter 89:
Tang Xiao didn't know anything about "the wealth of the ID card will be notified by the whole alliance", and the series of sensations caused by it.
Tang Xiao is visiting the neighborhood where he "lives". Speaking of which, since she was pulled into the game, she has only had time to stay in the house for a day, and she has never even gone out the door, let alone what it is like outside.
What alliance, identity, and lover she initially thought were all excuses for Gobi Games to pit her into the dungeon world—but now she finds out that this place is actually a complete world!
—just shaped like a very raised middle finger.
The clerk next to him sincerely praised: "Hengmei is cold to a thousand husband's fingers, bowing his head and willing to be a bull!"
Tang Xiao: "...?"
The efficiency of the alliance is indeed high. In less than five minutes, the new clerk, that is, the serious middle-aged man with black spectacles in front of him, drove over.
He does things in a straight-forward manner, speaks in cadence, does his best for the job, and the pay is clearly marked.
At the moment, the clerk is introducing NB company: "NB company is a gathering place for the elites of the entire alliance field. The alliance has no government, and everything runs by convention. It is because of the existence of NB company that we can live live a safe life…”
Tang Xiao asked: "What is the convention?"
Alliance field, this is a place that mobile game players are familiar with, and its role is equivalent to a transfer station. Players can only enter the next big copy world through the alliance.
As for the entrance and exit, Tang Xiao also experienced it once, in a high-tech underground base that was heavily guarded, but at that time she was threatened by NPC Mary, and she had no spiritual power and did not observe much surrounding conditions.
But the word convention does not appear in the game. In fact, there are very few descriptions of Noah League and NB Company, but the game was released shortly after, and players didn't care. Looking back now, there were indeed a lot of loopholes.
The clerk explained: "The existence of the convention can be traced back to the earliest establishment of the alliance field..."
At that time, the human remnants escaped from the endless apocalypse world and finally came to a cosmic region that will not be eroded by the apocalypse. But this area belongs to another powerful force. The remnants had no choice but to fight, but the mysterious force was crushing on human beings, and they suffered countless casualties...until the first **** was born among human beings.
The power of "God" comes partly from the ability of the remnants themselves, and partly from the influence of the mysterious power of the universe. Only after human beings become gods can they really talk to the mysterious power and become the same life as them existence of layers.
The first group to find a safe area and give birth to the remnants of the gods are called the remnants of the ancients.
Inhabiting, living, multiplying, developing... but only temporarily, when the mysterious power returns, human beings must return all the domains.
Hearing this, Tang Xiao understood.
No wonder the alliance is in a hurry to catch the laborers, bah, catch the players and go to each doomsday dungeon to explore the market.
It turns out that the entire field is currently only a borrowed place for human beings. In order not to become homeless at that time, the Alliance has only three options: either continue to wage war against the mysterious power and win new gods, or find another source, or - solve the problem of the spread of doomsday.
The first two problems can only cure the symptoms but not the root cause. Only by truly cutting off the source of doomsday, even if the investment is huge, the alliance must continue to cultivate players (saviors) and send them to explore the way.
This corresponds to the game plot.
The clerk continued to say that such agreements are the predecessor of the "Convention". After it was settled, it turned into a powerful energy, and opened up several areas in the field for human survival. Space.
The only remaining gods took the largest piece of space, which has long been the current alliance field. Because the alliance of the ancient remnants is called the Noah Alliance, this field will also be called the Noah field.
Later, the ancient gods fell one after another, and the departure of the mysterious power made it impossible for human beings to give birth to new gods. Fortunately, the power of the "Convention" is enough to maintain the entire field. It not only stipulates the basic laws in the field, but is also the executor of the highest power.
The clerk stood there quietly after the introduction, giving Tang Xiao time to think.
Tang Xiao noticed that when the other party talked about the convention, his tone was respectful, but he did not admire or yearn for it.
On the contrary, when referring to NB company, the clerk always subconsciously expressed his longing and admiration, and baldly uttered a few words of praise at every turn.
She then asked, "Are you working for NB Company?"
The clerk frowned deeply, looking a little frightened: "Miss Tang is joking, how can I have this honor. NB company inherits the will of the gods, the whole alliance, no, in the entire security field only Only the top talent can be selected into NB, such as a 'savior' like you."
The man with glasses is not like the receptionist with waxy hair. The savior in his mouth is purely literal, as if it is very common like "professor" and "expert". A name given to a specific group of people.
Tang Xiao nodded and deconstructed this part of the information in his heart: The "Convention" was the result of negotiation between the "God" of mankind and foreign powers, but it was NB Company that inherited the will of God.
Then it can also be said that the two forces have a vague meaning of confrontation. No matter how powerful the convention is, it does not belong to human beings after all. However, NB is an organization of human beings, and there will inevitably be biases in the hearts of the people.
Tang Xiao has no particular preference at the moment, she always remembers that this is just a game: maybe it has a complete and grand worldview, richer and longer than the real world, but it does not belong to her.
On the contrary, she is more interested in that "Convention", and already has a guess in her heart. To test this guess, she asked the clerk, "Do you know Mary?"
The clerk's face changed slightly, and he didn't seem to want to mention the name, but he answered truthfully: "Commissioner Mary belongs to the "Convention" and is the leader of the first batch of intelligent life forms, responsible for maintaining Alliance security."
Tang Xiao: "What is she responsible for?"
Clerk: "How can we know the scope of the commissioner's duties? I am afraid that this issue is only accessible to you, Miss Tang. You have passed the novice selection checkpoint. If the next entry procedure goes well, you can You can directly enter the NB company to work!"
His voice was calm, but there was still a little excitement in his eyes.
In his heart, being able to work in NB Company is undoubtedly an extremely honorable thing. It's a pity they can't enjoy this glory.
—They have worked hard for decades, but they can’t touch the clothes of NB. But these newcomers collected by the alliance from all corners of the universe, as long as they pass a trial, they can step up to their dream status as "saviors".
But envy is envy, and there is no jealousy in the eyes of the clerk. After all, as we all know, it is not necessarily a good thing to have a physique that can enter the doomsday dungeon. It will bring not only power and wealth, but also great evil.
For example, "saviors" will be infected with a special radiation, which not only greatly shortens their lifespan, but also keeps their souls alienated over time.
Wealth and glory are good, but also life!
Tang Xiao naturally knows this as well, and all these situations are recorded in the alliance manual.
- It is recorded above that if a newcomer fails to pass the trials, even if he is lucky enough to survive, his life will only be half a month. Even a rookie who has cleared the trials has a lifespan of only about three months.
If you want to prolong your life, you must keep clearing new doomsday dungeons. Similarly, the radiation you will receive will increase.
This is like a person who has a terminal illness and has to use special medicine, but the more medicine is used, the deeper the disease, the more inseparable it becomes.
The saviors either died painfully in the copy, or died painfully in reality.
There are wolves in front and tigers behind, if this is a variety show, Tang Xiao can even come up with the name of the variety show:
#The daily routine of being deliberately murdered by the dog than the show team#
#How to gracefully kill thousands of billionaires#
Fortunately, although Tang Xiao wanted to roll his eyes, he was not afraid.
—After all, the possibility of her dying in the dungeon first is far higher than the end of her life.
…
The block is very small, the clerk talked for a while, and there was really nothing to introduce.
After a general understanding, Tang Xiao knew the area where they were now—the fringe area of the federal domain that could not be more remote.
Her current house is a small, poor, and poor independent small unit.
Her body now—the death radiation that will come with the end of the trials, the physical fitness limited by the alliance domain, and the short life span that no one knows.
Among the many bad news, the only thing that can be called good is that she has a "big money" of 35 life points.
Many "iron jobs and high welfare positions" like him generally have an annual salary of no more than one life point, not to mention that most jobs do not pay life points at all.
In the alliance currency system, ordinary people use information points in their daily lives, while players use general-purpose points as general currency, and the exchange ratio of general-purpose points to information points is 1:1000.
General points can buy most items, such as Tang Xiao’s current small house, after a simple estimate by the clerk, the value should be around 25 general points.
Above the general point is the life point. The exchange ratio between the two is still 1:1000.
In the alliance, there are some things that can only be purchased with life points, such as titles, medals, pardons...even secret weapons, armed forces, and even planets, as long as there are enough life points, You can buy anything!
For players, a small number of precious items, and most of the bloodline enhancement, can only be purchased with life points, and the price is not cheap.
God knows how eagerly Tang Xiao opened the preview interface of the mall when he learned this information—
Oh, you need to spend both life points and game coins, sorry.
For other players, this in-game currency is not a big deal at all, and can be ignored directly. People in the alliance naturally think so.
Tang Xiao: ...No, she can't!
What is more tragic than extreme poverty is getting a huge sum of money but not spending it, which can make people more aware of the fact that they are poor.
So, at the end of the service, Tang Xiao asked the most important question in his heart:
"If I want to get in-game currency now, is there a quick, realistic, feasible way?"
The clerk dedicatedly rummaged through the information and answered after a while, "Of course, Miss Tang."
"In many low-end casinos in the alliance, there may be some old players who are approaching the limit and have nothing to bet, so they use game currency as a bet. Miss Tang can try her luck."
Luck…
Miss Tang nodded calmly, then asked, "Is there any other way?"
Until she had to, she just wanted to respect her own luck and didn't want to disturb each other.
"Also...I found out that there are game coins in the lottery information released in the auction event in the central area of the alliance today. This is the only event notification related to game coins in the entire network. Two hours to go..."
The word lottery made Tang Xiao’s brain hurt, but the clerk’s next sentence made her heart beat violently—
"In addition, the game currency is the lowest value among all the prizes, and the probability is slightly higher than others. I am afraid no one is willing to draw it... This is obviously not worthwhile, do you want me to help you continue the search ?"
Tang Xiao made a decisive decision, "No need, that's all, take me there now, and the reward will be doubled today!"
"...Oh yes," Tang Xiao looked a little complicated, "Go back to my house first and bring someone with you."
She also has a "lover" who she doesn't know about, and still can't find out the truth. She seems to be throwing a temper now.
