Chapter 381: Chapter 380 the battle of the focal point

The leader was curious,"I'm a little confused. How strong is Chen Mo?" Are you saying that you and Frost are no match for him?"

Hu Jing was silent for a while before he replied,"it's hard to say." In terms of mechanics and reaction time, Chen Mo is only slightly better than me, but Frost should be on the same level as me. However, what's really scary about Chen Mo is his understanding of the game and his psychological control. "

"Game understanding and ... Psychological control?" the leader was a little confused.

"Yes," Hu Jing said,"I wouldn't have felt this if I wasn't personally playing against Chen Mo. He's very familiar with the characteristics of his champion, and he knows exactly when his champion is strong and when his champion is weak. The scariest thing is that he seems to be able to see through his opponent's mind. When I play Orianna, it feels like every step I take is right in front of his death song's Q. It's the most despairing feeling I have. "

"And when he uses Orianna, he seems to be able to guess the position of every Q-skill of my deathsong. He always walks to places that I can't imagine. He's like a machine, always able to avoid all my non-directional skills with extreme precision."

The leader was speechless.

Hu Jing watched the video of the game and continued,""But it's true that these Korea teams are improving too fast. I don't remember hearing about Frost in OST during the previous training tournaments. Now, he's definitely one of the main players."

The leader nodded."That's right. Frost was a high-scoring player in the Korean server that was scouted by OST a month and a half ago. They're growing very quickly."

Hu Jing's expression also became serious."I understand. I'll watch the video of the match again."

……

As the schedule of the first round of the group stage continued to advance, the situation of each group became clearer and clearer.

It was October 8th, the last day of the first round of the group competition.

The situation in Group A had basically been settled. The three matches of the NRG team were all won, and they had basically locked in the qualifying spot. The other three foreign teams were fighting for the remaining spot.

...

The situation in Group B was relatively chaotic. IF from China and OST from Korea both had two points. Today, there would be a crucial showdown between the two teams, and the winner would most likely be the top of the group.

Group C was led by the Korea team MAD, while the domestic team, NTclub, did not perform well. It was likely that the European team would advance to the next round.

Group D's old North American team, WBG, had basically secured a place in the next round. The remaining spots would be decided between the local teams, MG, and the Korea team, E Motus.

……

The first match on the last day of the group stage was the highlight-the match between IF and OST.

It happened to be a Sunday, so the crowd was very lively. There were already waves of cheers even before the battle started.

"Okay, welcome to the last day of the group stage of the first round of the League of Legends World Finals. I'm the commentator, memories."

"Hello, everyone. I'm commentator ke Zhen."

Memories and ke Zhen were still the commentators for this crucial battle. In fact, they had already rotated the commentators for the previous matches, but this match was more critical, so it was still the two of them who commentated.

Recalling the information on the commentary platform,""So, after three days of competition, the situation in each group has gradually become clearer. Ke Zhen, what do you think of the current situation of the domestic teams?"

Ke Zhen thought for a moment and said,"among the domestic teams, the current situation of NRG and IF is better." However, the performance of NTclub in Group C was worrying because the Korea team MAD and the European team vs G in Group C were playing very well. If ntclub could not adjust their condition well in the next round, it was likely that they would not be able to advance from the group. As for Group D, as the North American team, WBC has basically secured a place in the group. I don't think it's a big problem for MG to compete for the second place with E mouts from Korea, because from the previous performance, MG is slightly better. "

Memories nodded."Okay. After today's match, the situation of each group's advancement will be more clear. Today's key match will be IF and OST. These are the two teams that we generally think are currently at the top of the ladder. What do you think of the result of this match, ke Zhen?"

Ke Zhen said,"it's hard to say. At the moment, we're more optimistic about IF, NRG, OST, and MAD. We're clear that IF is slightly stronger than NRG in our country. However, for these two Korea teams, OST mainly relies on the individual strength of their mid-laner players, while MAD relies on good teamwork. It's hard to say how strong they are." But I personally think IF will win. "

The two commentators analyzed the current situation of the group stage and briefly introduced the characteristics of IF and OST teams, as well as their star players. The game began.

It was obvious that both sides were targeting each other's mid. Popular mid Champions like death Song, Icebird, and Orianna had all been banned, and the final mid-Lane battle was actually between vampire and Lux.

IF's formation was Lady Blade, Scorpion, vampire, Ezreal, and Tauren, while so's formation was brightmoon, mundo, lacus, big mouth, and Lulu.

Memories: "okay, then the match between the two sides will now begin. IF is on the blue side, OT is on the red side. Please cheer for the team you like, okay?"

The big screen switched to the game, and the holographic projection showed the full view of the Summoner's Rift.

The audience in the arena was screaming and cheering loudly. After the first round of the group stage competition, NRG and IF had successfully gained a large number of fans. After all, these two teams had won all the matches so far, and they had placed the hopes of the domestic audience on them.

"Good luck, everyone," Hu Jing said in the team voice chat."Since you've set up this trap, you must win this round!"

Obviously, killing the wild Scorpion was a special routine, specifically used to deal with an OT.

Although there were 50 Champions in League of Legends so far, there were only a few popular Champions. There were still many Champions that were either simpler, suitable for novices, or not fully developed yet.

In the jungler position, Gragas, Lee Sin, Incubus, and widower had all appeared, but Scorpion had not been used in the world Championship.

He recalled,'IF actually came up with a combination of a vampire and a Scorpion. It's because we know that IF's mid player is a very strong individual player but vampire is relatively shameless. He won't be at a disadvantage but it's difficult for him to gain an advantage in the league. "

Ke Zhen nodded his head."That's right. IF's lineup is clearly aimed at bot's middle lane. After banning the popular mid-Lane champion, vampire's powerful laning ability can tie Frost down in the middle lane. On the other hand, Scorpion will be brainlessly pulling players once he reaches Level 6."

"In other words," reminiscing,"IF the tactical idea in this game is to use vampires to tie Frost to death in the middle and then slaughter his teammates."

"That's right. I think that's the tactical intention of IF,"ke Zhen nodded.

Chapter 382: The end of the first round of small group competition

In the cheers of the audience, the battle between IF and OST officially began!

It was obvious that IF had come up with a strategy that had never been used before in order to deal with OST. After the start of the game, OST chose the Mondo Red Lane, while brightmoon would return to the top lane after she took the blue Lane, establishing the upper hand in the top lane.

However, IF seemed to have seen through the opponent's tactical intentions. Scorpion and the bottom lane duo directly crouched in the bushes at the bottom lane. After the blue buff refreshed, they decisively bypassed the ward and invaded, successfully snatching the blue buff from the OT.

At the same time, IF's top-laner, Lady Blade, had also taken down her own blue buff with the help of the vampire. Scorpion then returned to his own jungle to take down the red buff, successfully achieving a start with three buffs.

Reminiscing: "wow, you can see that IF's opening strategy clearly shows that he's studied the bot strategy. In that case, blade girl with the blue buff at the top lane should have the advantage against brightmoon. The jungler will also develop faster with an extra buff. Vampire in the middle lane has also gained a certain advantage when he's going against Lux in the laning. The pace of the IF in the early game is very good."

Ke Zhen was also very excited."That's right. Obviously, IF's plan worked. Because of vampire's characteristics as a hero, he can push the lane mindlessly. This is equivalent to locking Lux in the middle lane so that Frost can't support the other lanes. Once lacus leaves, the vampires will cause a lot of trouble for the OT whether it's to support or to push the turret. "

Memories: "but, the SOT Lane is a combination of big mouth and Lulu. If this combination can develop in the later stages, it will be very scary. I don't know IF IF they will target the SOT Lane."

"Big mouth needs a long time to develop. Currently, IF's Ezreal and Tauren at the bottom lane basically don't have to worry about getting caught. We just have to wait for Scorpion to reach Level 6, then IF can start to mess around like crazy."

The match continued. Scorpion, who was at Level 3, was immediately caught, and Tauren flashed to the top, directly forcing out two flashes from the opposing duo at the bottom lane.

In the middle lane, although Frost's Lux was also frantically trying to kill off Hu Jing's vampire, vampire was a hero with great endurance. As long as he hid behind the minion wave and took a few breaths, he would be able to recover his health.

Scorpion's level 4 attack came down again, successfully taking advantage of the bot duo's vision gap. Tauren's WQ raised its mouth twice, and Scorpion and Ezreal followed up with damage output, successfully killing them.

"FIRST BLOOD!"

The sound effect of first blood resounded through the entire Stadium, and the audience immediately erupted into deafening cheers!

...

IF blade girl at the top lane had successfully suppressed brightmoon, but she had also been caught by Mondo once because she had pressed too deep into the lane, and she had used her flash.

Scorpion, who was at Level 5, went around the blue buff area and grabbed at the back. Vampire was big. The two of them planned to kill Lux from Frost with a set of damage, but frmot's control was very good, and in the end, they escaped with low health.

At this stage, everyone was still in the "fight if you don't agree" stage. They were all walking around and causing trouble. There was no longer any long and smelly operations at all. Therefore, the effect of the competition program was simply explosive. The cheers at the venue were also getting louder and louder.

After snatching away the blue buff from the bot, Scorpion once again gave his blue buff to Lady Blade to ensure that he had the upper hand in the top lane. After all, vampire could not take the blue buff, and Hu Jing's task in this game was very simple, which was to tie up frot.

After Scorpion rose to Level 6, he temporarily did not find a good opportunity to pull people in. After all, the bot side was well aware of the threat that Scorpion posed when he reached Level 6. Moreover, they were at a disadvantage, so they could only hide for the time being.

IF he could take down a small dragon, but unfortunately, the Dragon's attributes were not very good, and it was only a Wind Dragon.

The IF's Blue buff refreshed again. This time, the SOT decided to invade and steal the IF's Blue buff. Mondo and brightmoon successfully forced Scorpion to flash. However, Hu Jing's vampiric support was very timely. He immediately flashed over the wall and used his ulti. Saber sister also came over to surround him. The three players from the OT immediately retreated when they realized that they could not win. However, it was already too late. The combat power of vampiric and saber sister was extremely terrifying!

Lux wanted to use her Q-skill to freeze the vampire, but she was dodged by Hu Jing's blood pool!

In the end, the crescent moon was killed, and Lux could only escape from the Dragon's pit with a flash. Mundo was also surrounded by the Minotaurs, and his head was given to the Scorpion.

OST paid the price for their reckless invasion. After that, IF's economic advantage had expanded to about 4000. Although they did not kill too many people, their third-line advantage and jungle resources were enough to pull apart the economic gap.

After that, IF fought steadily. Because of the economic disadvantage of the OT, the brightmoon 8.0 and Mondo's equipment were not good, and no matter who Scorpion pulled, he would be able to kill them instantly, so the situation quickly reversed to IF's side.

Although Lux from Frost did not die even once, she could not save the world with saberswoman and Scorpion's equipment.

The game was finally set at the 37th minute, with the score of 11-6. This time, there weren't too many kills because the OT team had been avoiding the match. However, the level and excitement of this match were far higher than the previous matches where the score difference was huge.

He recalled,'in the last wave of team battle, IF could be said to have destroyed all obstacles and successfully destroyed the OT crystal hub, winning this game! Let's congratulate! At the end of the first round of the group stage, he became the top of the group with a record of 3-0!"

"Congratulations, IF!" Ke Zhen said.

IF's five members came to the center of the stage. All five of them were very excited and enjoyed the applause and cheers of the audience!

……

At the end of the last round of the group competition, both NRG and IF won all three matches and ranked first in their group.

Especially IF, their brilliant performance in the battle against OST had won them countless fans. In various major forums, the domestic league of Legends players were all dancing with joy.

Although the group stage was only halfway through, the popularity of League of Legends's S1 finals was rising, which could be seen from the popularity of major forums and live streaming platforms.

On the live broadcast website, many hosts had opened live broadcast rooms to replay some of the exciting scenes and classic games in the world Finals. The games of NRG and IF were repeatedly replayed, and players loved to watch it, with tens of thousands of viewers every day.

Some of the big streamers of League of Legends were also analyzing the game during their spare time. Some were reviewing the match, some were commentating, and some were analyzing the participating teams, their playstyles, characteristics, and so on.

It could be said that almost all the livestream streamers of League of Legends were riding on the popularity of the world Finals.

This time, the world Finals were not limited to the gaming industry. Many traditional media outlets also reported on the News of the World Finals. Although it did not cause too wide an impact in society, at least it was a good start.

The World Championship was a big event with a high prize, and it was a competition that would bring glory to the country. The spirit and ideology it conveyed were positive, so the game Committee was very supportive of it.

The S1 World Finals of League of Legends was becoming more and more influential, and it was even beyond everyone's expectations.

Chapter 383: The distributors 'surprise

After the group competition ended, Chen Mo posted on Weibo.

"About the first season of League of Legends World Finals: More than 7 million viewers were watching the group stage on the internet or TV, most of which were domestic viewers, but more than 2.7 million viewers were watching from countries such as Europe, America, and Korea. This also means that the League of Legends World Finals has become the most watched e-sports competition in history. "

The moment this Weibo post was posted, it immediately caused a widespread discussion!

Before this, most players and game industry professionals could only vaguely feel that League of Legends was very popular, but they didn't have a clear idea how popular it was.

However, the number of 7 million viewers had truly shocked everyone!

This number had far surpassed all previous e-sports competitions, which meant that the world Finals of League of Legends had become an important event, even comparable to some traditional sports!

On the forum.

"The number of viewers for the S1 final match exceeds 7 million? Is that true? Isn't this just a League of Legends game?"

"I don't think it's fake. There are more than 2 million people watching on fish-catching's live streaming platform alone, and this doesn't include other platforms, official channels, and overseas viewers. Even if he faked the number of people, Chen Mo wouldn't fake the numbers. "

"Don't you think that during this period of time, many chat groups and forums are talking about the finals? This is obviously true data!"

"I don't think 7 million is a lot. The previous global science and technology Conference in Shanghai had 6.3 million people watching it. I guess many people haven't heard of that conference before? But there are very few people in China who haven't heard of League of Legends, right?"

"No, no, no. It's only well-known among us internet-addicted teenagers. League of Legends isn't that well-known."

"But it's still not low!"

...

"It can only be said that this is an international competition. At first, many people didn't pay attention to it. But after the two China teams beat the foreign teams, the attention of this game is getting higher and higher!"

"That's awesome. Let's wait for the finals. If the domestic team can successfully win the championship, I think this world Championship will probably make history!"

……

Emperor dynasty Entertainment's headquarters.

Emperor dynasty gaming platform, fantasy gaming platform, and a few other influential platforms in the country were holding emergency meetings.

Xu Xiaojun presided over the meeting, and his face was very ugly.

Everyone present was the person in charge of a major platform, and all of them had access to a large number of distribution channels. All of them were reputable people in the gaming industry, and independent video game designers didn't dare to offend them.

As the saying goes,"the King of Hell is better, but the little devil is harder to deal with." The ones who were really in charge of the channel resources of the major gaming platforms weren't CEOs like Lin chaoxu or ding Xing, but the people in charge of the platforms. If these people joined forces, they could even decide the life and death of a large number of games.

If the majority of distributors in the country didn't promote your game and worked together to shut you down, it would be difficult for most average video game designers to make their games stand out in front of the players.

But now, the atmosphere in the conference room was very gloomy, and these people's faces were also very bad.

Xu Xiaojun cleared his throat, and his face was a little serious."The number of viewers for League of Legends's global Grand Finals has reached 7 million, and it's currently filling all major forums, video websites, and live broadcasting platforms. It can be said that the influence of this game is comparable to many traditional sports. What we can predict is that after the finals, League of Legends will have another explosive growth in the domestic market. "

He looked at the people present."President Lin organized this meeting to let us discuss countermeasures. Everyone, please express your opinions."

The person in charge of fantasy gaming platform, Yao Bo, sighed.""Chairman ding is also very angry, but ... With the current popularity of League of Legends, I'm afraid there's no way to deal with it."

Xu Xiaojun also knew that Yao Bo was right. With the current momentum of League of Legends, what countermeasures could they come up with? The success of the League of Legends finals was based on the game itself. When the game became popular, the popularity of the e-sports competition would also increase.

But after all, this meeting was to discuss countermeasures. They couldn't just look at each other without saying anything, right?

Xu Xiaojun said in a deep voice,"although the current situation can't be reversed by one or a few people, we should at least analyze the success of this finals. Even if we can't analyze the countermeasures, we can still barely report back."

Yao Bo nodded."That's right. That's why Chairman Lin and Chairman ding asked us to hold this meeting." At least analyze the success of the League of Legends finals first. "

……

It wasn't just the distributors, most video game designers in the industry were also analyzing the success of League of Legends's S1 World Finals.

League of Legends's local promotion had already given these distributors a tight slap in the face. The local distributors had initially joined forces to suppress Thunderbolt gaming platform, but the sudden appearance of League of Legends had completely crushed the other PC games in the same period, further establishing Thunderbolt gaming platform's strong position in the PC market.

Chen Mo was very successful in both mobile and PC games, and he had made a name for himself in VR games with Minecraft and outlast.

Ever since the competition started, these traditional Chinese distributors had been on the losing end. It was humiliating that they couldn't beat Chen Mo even with so many companies combined.

And this League of Legends finals was like sprinkling salt on the wound.

Originally, these distributors were generally disapproving of the finals. It was very simple, because these distributors had organized many e-sports competitions and knew the ways.

Fantasy gaming platform had hosted many competitions in the past, and Yao Bo was considered a famous esports player in the country.

The reason for the negative comments was that in the eyes of these distributors, e-sports competitions were a business that made a loss and was a means for game manufacturers to promote games.

E-sports competitions required money to rent the venue, purchase various equipment, an attractive prize money, and invite famous players from all over the world ... These were all money, but what about the tickets to the competition? It was impossible to set the price too high. It would be good enough if they could recover the cost, and they wouldn't make much money at all.

It was also very difficult to get sponsorships. At most, he could get sponsorships from a few companies such as the motherboard, keyboard, and mouse.

Many e-sports competitions simply lost money, and even late bonuses sometimes happened.

Chen Mo's lineup this time was too big. Whether it was the venue or the prize money, he had broken records in all aspects. If it was as popular as the previous e-sports competitions, he wouldn't have been able to recover his costs.

However, when the data came out, everyone was slapped in the face.

Who would've thought that this competition would be so popular?

Chapter 384: The foundation of the competition

It wasn't just Xu Xiaojun and Yao Bo who were in charge of the gaming platform that was confused. Many video game designers were also confused. Why had there never been any esports game that could reach such a scale before League of Legends?

There had never been such a large-scale e-sports competition before, so many industry insiders thought that it was impossible for e-sports to reach the scale of traditional sports.

The most fundamental reason was the audience. The reason why traditional sports were so popular was because there were many spectators. For example, there were so many football fans all over the world. Even if they did not play football, many people loved to watch football games.

It was precisely because of such a broad base of people that football matches could become more and more popular. Whether it was the World Cup, European Championship, or the Olympic Games, even if it was a Football League in a certain country or region, it could make a large number of fans 'blood boil.

However, e-sports was different. The biggest problem that e-sports competitions couldn't be popularized was that they didn't have a sufficient audience base.

Even though the situation in the parallel world was different from Chen Mo's previous world, there was one thing that was similar. Before League of Legends, there was no other game that was as popular as League of Legends.

Most games only had a lifespan of one to two years, but what about the history of football? It had been at least a few hundred years.

The special nature of the game industry meant that most games would be replaced by new games very quickly. A game that could be as popular as football for hundreds of years? It was nothing more than a fool's dream.

In the parallel world, mobile, PC, and VR were all developed, but they all had their own flaws. Although there were many people playing mobile games, the competition was poor, and there was no guarantee that the audience would be able to watch the competition. Although there were some FPS games in VR that could guarantee competitive play, the number of players was small and the viewing rate was not good, so it could not achieve dominance.

For e-sports competitions, although the more competitive it was, the higher the viewing pleasure, the premise of all this was that the players must have played the game before.

If the players had never played the game before, they would not even understand what was happening in the game, so how could they watch it with interest?

Therefore, League of Legends was a game made for competitions, and its features were very suitable for e-sports competitions.

League of Legends had a large audience base, and every player was a potential audience for the game.

...

The omniscient view was very suitable for watching the battle. Most players could understand what was happening on the battlefield, and it was also suitable for commentary.

It had a high degree of competition and viewing. Although League of Legends was a relatively simple MOBA game, there were still many more profound routines and eye-catching operations in the professional league, which were enough to distinguish the level of different teams.

The numbers obtained in the S1 World Finals of League of Legends were the envy of all distributors and designers, because there was a huge potential behind this popularity.

However, they had no choice. Even if they wanted to make other games look like esports, it would be hard for them to reach the popularity of League of Legends.

This was because, at the moment, there was no domestic or foreign game that could achieve the qualities of League of Legends.

In the end, Xu Xiaojun and Yao Bo came up with an analysis report, analyzing the reason for the popularity of the League of Legends Grand Finals, but how to deal with it? He was helpless.

The reason why League of Legends could create such an e-sports atmosphere was entirely due to the game itself, and with the dominance of League of Legends on the PC side, there was no other PC game that could compare to it.

What Emperor dynasty entertainment and fantasy gaming platform had to admit was that this was a dead end, and League of Legends 'World Finals was just the game's last resort.

……

After the first round of the group competition ended, the teams welcomed a three-day rest period.

During this period of time, all the teams were free to do whatever they wanted. Some foreign teams chose to play in Shanghai and experience the local customs, while some teams still seized the time to train hard and prepare for the second round of the group stage.

"Sharpening the gun before the battle" could be said to be extremely important in e-sports competitions.

This was because before the competition between the major divisions, no one could determine which tactics were the strongest, especially when there were differences in level and style between the divisions. For example, Europe and the United States liked to develop steadily in the early stages and wait for team battles in the later stages. This style of play was not a problem in the European and American Division. However, when playing against the Chinese and Korean teams, the other party would not give you any time to develop steadily. They would simply snowball and kill you in the early stages.

Therefore, after the end of the first round of the group stage, many teams with consecutive wins were overtaken because of their slack, or some teams with consecutive losses came up with new tactics to counterattack after increasing the training volume. These were all very common things.

In the hotel, apart from the training rooms for the teams, Chen Mo also arranged a lounge for himself.

Su Jinyu and the others went out to have fun. After all, they had been working in the capital all this time. It was rare for them to come to Shanghai, so they had to visit some famous attractions, such as the Oriental Pearl Tower, the Bund, and so on.

After all, they weren't like these teams who didn't have any training tasks and were just here to play.

Chen Mo and Li jingsi had been playing games in the break room the entire time.

It had been a while since Chen Mo last played league of Legends. Even though he had lost a segment, his hidden points were still there. As such, he duo-ed with li jingsi and once again dominated the champion segment.

It was almost impossible to win every game since League of Legends was a five-player game. Chen Mo couldn't guarantee that his teammates would always play at their normal level, either because it was normal for them to lose their game due to their mentality or luck.

However, Chen Mo and Li jingsi still maintained a high win rate.

After finishing an 8-to-0-to-3 brightmoon, Chen Mo received a call from Sun Xiao.

"Hello?" Chen Mo picked up the phone."What's up?"

Sun Xiao said,"chief Chen, it's like this." A few club managers in Shanghai came to me and asked for your contact information. They probably want to get a spot in next year's League of Legends professional league. "

"Tell them that the spots are gone, but the spots for the First Division are still there. Submit the relevant qualifications and arrange for them to play in the First Division. " Chen Zhao said.

Sun Xiao hesitated for a moment."Er, but chief Chen, there are quite a few clubs in Shanghai. The bosses have already come personally. Why don't you meet them and talk to them face to face?"

"Alright." Chen Zhao thought about it. "That's good."

"Then, shall I arrange the dinner?"

"No, there's no need for a dinner." Chen Zhao said,"ask them to come over. I'm in the lounge right now." There are a few long sofas here, so there should be enough space. "

"Alright," he said. Sun Xiao said,"then I'll have them go over directly."

Chapter 385: Chapter 384-stubborn Chen Zhao

After working with Chen Mo for the past few days, Sun Xiao knew Chen Mo's personality very well. Chen Mo was clearly someone who didn't care about small things. He never attended any social events or dinner parties. He was also very direct when he talked about things and never bargained with others.

If it was anyone else who dared to do this, they would definitely be labeled as "low EQ, not smooth enough."

But Chen Mo was different, he had the confidence to do so. He didn't even need to consider other people's feelings now, with League of Legends in his hands, these big clubs wouldn't even have the time to suck up to him.

Chen Mo now had absolute authority over League of Legends 'professional league. He was the only official, and he could choose whoever he didn't want to bring along.

"A few people from the club will be coming over soon," Chen Mo said to li jingsi."I have something to discuss with them. You can continue playing. Don't worry about it."

"Do you want me to leave?" li jingsi asked.

Chen Zhao shook his head."No need. It's nothing important. You probably won't be interested. Just play."

"Alright," he said. Li jingsi nodded."Then I'll play a solo match first."

Not long after, Sun Xiao came over with a few club bosses.

Sun Xiao led the bosses in and introduced them one by one.

"This is the designer of League of Legends, President Chen from Thunderbolt entertainment."

The club bosses all greeted Chen Mo, and Chen Mo returned their greetings.

Everyone quickly took their seats.

...

Sun Xiao was the first to speak."Everyone, actually, I've already discussed this with chief Chen over the phone. However, out of respect for everyone, I'll let chief Chen explain it to everyone personally."

The club owners all looked at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo looked at everyone and said,"I'm sorry about the pro League. The ten teams have already been confirmed." I've done some research on the clubs in the country before, and they're a team that's based on the club's foundation and the strength of the players. They basically represent the highest level of professional teams in League of Legends. "

"But there's no need to worry. Next year, in addition to the professional league, there will be a First Division. Everyone will be able to get a place in the First Division. We have a promotion match every year. As long as you perform well in the First Division, you can enter the professional league. "

The club owners looked at each other.

A slightly chubby boss was the first to speak.""Chief Chen, it's like this. Let's not beat around the bush, the attention of the e-sports audience is limited. The vast majority of their eyes will be focused on the professional league and there won't be many spectators in the First Division. "

"Our clubs have a good foundation, but we were busy with other projects and didn't pay much attention to League of Legends. As long as we can get a spot in the pro League, we'll definitely do it well. At that time, we'll just sign a few high-scoring players, poach one or two star players, and it'll be easy to form a strong team. It's a bit of a waste to play in the First Division, President Chen. "

Another boss with an accent said,""Yes, President Chen. I noticed that there are only ten teams in the professional league. I think it won't be a problem to expand to a dozen teams."

Chen Mo shook his head."No, the schedule has been set. It's from Thursday to Sunday. The main purpose is to ensure that the audience has enough time to watch the game."

"You don't have to be so rigid, chief Chen," said the boss with the accent. "The team can be divided into two groups. The group will have more bribing, and the group outside will have less bribing." Or don't hit the 3rd boss, just hit the 2nd boss, right?"

Chen Mo still shook his head,"no, the grouping will cause the strength of the teams to be uneven. The grouping also relates to the qualifying round and the playoffs. It's not fair for some teams." Changing to BO2 won't work either, it will reduce the cruelty of the league. In BO2, some teams will relax after winning a game. Only BO3 can ensure that these teams play at their highest level. "

The fat boss paused for a moment and said,""Uh ... Yes, yes, yes, President Chen does have a point. "However, I feel that our clubs are more formal than some clubs in the league in all aspects. For example, the NRG club was just formed recently. It was just that it was prepared earlier. In terms of financial resources, we are much stronger than it. As long as we have some time ..."

Chen Mo frowned,"I'm the one who decided on these ten clubs. No matter what background or financial resources they have, their League of Legends Division is the strongest in the country. The current record of the NRG in the world competition is 3-0 -0. Can the bosses 'teams do it? I'm afraid some clubs haven't even organized their branches yet?"

Hearing Chen Mo's words, the club owners were a little embarrassed.

It was true that several of the bosses here only thought of setting up a League of Legends branch after seeing the popularity of the League of Legends World Finals. Some clubs didn't even have enough players.

To put it bluntly, they just saw that League of Legends was doing well in esports and wanted to quickly hitch a ride to get a piece of the cake.

Chen Mo continued,"regarding the pro League, I already have a very mature plan." I understand that you all want to support League of Legends, but there's always a priority. As the organizer, I have to keep my word. "

"You can set up a League of Legends Division without worry. I guarantee that everyone's team will have a game to play. The First Division has the opportunity to be promoted to the professional league every year. If you really have the strength, you can jump three levels and directly jump to the world competition. "

The club bosses looked at each other. Chen Mo had already made it clear, his attitude was firm, and he had a good reason. There was no point in pestering him.

The club bosses stood up and left, and sun Xiao sent them off.

After sun Xiao left, the club bosses started to discuss on the way out of the hotel.

"I've always heard that this Chen Zhao is a stubborn person. He actually rejected me so firmly?"

"I thought that if it could be bought with money, it wouldn't matter even if it cost a few hundred thousand. But he didn't have that intention at all?"

"Don't tell me he's really going to be selected based on the team's strength?"

"He's really crazy. A game can only be popular for a year or two, and he's expecting it to be like football? Who would watch the First Division?"

"What promotion and demotion? it's quite decent. Do you want a spot in the First Division?"

"The spots in the First Division are not valuable. If we can't get a spot in the pro League, our club would rather not play the League of Legends Division. I'd like to see what Chen Mo and the other clubs can do!"

"That's right, he really thinks he's a Big Shot!"

Chapter 386: The professional players training in the National server

Of course, those clubs that didn't get a place in the LPL, although they said they didn't want it, most of them still accepted the First Division.

After all, there might not be such a shop after this.

However, there were also a small number of clubs who didn't even plan to set up a League of Legends branch.

After all, compared to the professional league LPL, the attention given to the First Division would definitely be very low, or almost zero. These clubs felt that the investment and output were not proportional, so they planned to wait and see for a while.

With the arrival of the major clubs, the value of professional players suddenly rose. Many high-scoring passers-by and live streamers were also invited by the clubs, and playing professionally became one of their choices.

……

In the waiting room, Chen Zhao was still playing with li jingsi.

"Do you think those club bosses will still set up a League of Legends branch?" asked li jingsi. They don't seem to be very interested in the spots in the First Division. "

"It doesn't matter if they're interested or not," Chen Mo said indifferently. At the moment, the top players and related e-sports resources in the country could only support 10 LPL teams and 12 first division teams at most, which means that I only need 22 clubs, it's useless to have more. These clubs that gave up their spots in the First Division will soon regret it. "

Li jingsi didn't ask any further. She looked at the lineup."We might have to go down the bottom lane."

"Are you an Archer or a support?"

Li jingsi thought for a moment."I'm a little tired of playing the Archer. I'll play the support for this round. You carry me and lie down."

...Sure."

...

Chen Mo thought about it and chose a champion.

"Welcome to the delai Alliance!"

……

During the world Tournament, all foreign professional players would train in the National server.

Chen Mo had specially prepared for these players to use their respective national accounts, which were all Champions and all Champions, allowing them to practice in the high-end games of the National server. Of course, these accounts would be recycled after the World Tournament.

These accounts all came with name change cards, and foreign professional players could change their names freely. This was to prevent high-ranked players from becoming actors because they hated a professional player, and to maintain the fairness of the competition.

However, under the efforts of the resourceful netizens, the IDs of these professional players were still exposed one after another, and there was even a very detailed corresponding form.

It had to be said that the names of these foreign friends were also very creative. In order to make themselves look less like "foreigners," they simply racked their brains.

There were also some players who were more confident, such as Frost from OST, who directly used their game ID. These players were not afraid of being played.

There were also some professional players who had English names, such as a word, because there were also some players in the Chinese server who used English names.

However, most of the professional players used Chinese names, probably to do as the Romans do and better disguise themselves as Chinese players who quietly carried the game.

However, these names were all very awkward. At first glance, one could tell that they were machine-flipped, and they did not have the effect of hiding their identities at all.

For example, a certain European mid wanted to name himself "professional player", but after flipping the "Professional Player" over, it became "professional player." Hence, he used this ID that seemed strange to others to play the stairway to heaven.

Many people were wondering why professional players were playing League of Legends.

Other than that, there were also a few IDs that were very annoying, such as "I want a sister,""this person is not breathing,""dazzling tornado charge,""what a beauty,""mental fortitude,""a nobody wants to mess with you,""strong spirit,""the Aegean is open," and so on.

Some of the names could not even be translated into English, as some European teams had to use French, German, or Russian to do the translation ...

However, after getting the IDs of most of the professional players, the netizens immediately set off a vigorous campaign to stop them.

These people were all professional players, so if I killed him, wouldn't that mean I could also play professionally?

During the rest period, the high-end players of the country started to rank frantically, trying to stop these professional players.

All the major forums and player groups were also lively. Many players were tracking the results of these professional players, and some streamers found a way to make money from it. They live-streamed the process of these professional players climbing the ladder, and there were quite a lot of viewers watching.

In the live broadcast room of these professional players who spectated, the audience was discussing the high-end games they had seen these days.

"Frost is so sick, even an actor in the team won? In the end, this actor probably found his conscience and started playing again. The worst part was that he even won!"

"This actor's points will probably be deducted and his account will be banned for three days ... The official website made a special announcement that during the world Tournament, the environment of the stairway to heaven will be purified. Any actor who is verified will be severely punished."

"This Muffy is obviously a support player. Why is he playing in the mid and Archer positions all the time?"

"This Pure mid from vs G has been screwed over. He's good at team development mid, but his teammates are crazy and sent him flying, not giving him a chance to develop at all 2333."

"I'm dying of laughter. I feel like Pure's mentality has exploded. He's in urgent need of a duo-team with his team's jungler!"

"Wait a minute, F * ck, what did I just see? This is an interesting match, Draven from the blue team is Chen Mo!"

"W-what? Chen Mo? He used Draven?"

"That's right. The blue team's bottom lane has two players, one is a talent and the other is a Throne. Isn't that Chen Zhao? The ID of this big mouth on the opposite side was tenacious spirit. Wasn't he the strongest AD in North America? It's Turke from the WBG battleteam. "

"F * ck, this is good. Where's the live broadcast room? I'm going to watch!"

……

Chen Mo didn't know that this match was being watched by a lot of famous streamers. He just thought that the ID of the big mouth was a bit strange.

"Mental fortitude"? This name was too unrefined.

Li jingsi was a girl who kept her word. If she said she would lie down, she would lie down. She directly chose a healer to support her, carrying out the spirit of lying down to win to the end.

On the other side, it was big mouth and wind lady. This was a combination that could be seen in a game. Wind lady could protect big mouth to a certain extent, and big mouth could completely take over the game after he developed.

"How are we going to fight?" Li jingsi asked.

Kill big mouth.

"Alright," li jingsi nodded.

Both sides went online. Obviously, the opponent's big mouth did not realize the seriousness of the situation. After all, he was the number one ADC in North America. Although Truke used a developing champion like big mouth to go against Draven, who was a strong early game champion, he did not admit defeat at the start. Instead, he tried to snatch the second level.

However, Chen Mo's Draven obviously didn't want to give him the chance. He used a spinning hatchet to hit the shield and then retreated, waiting for the shield to disappear before going forward to wear her down.

Chapter 387: Chapter 386-study well

At Level 1, driven, who was playing with spinning axes, clearly dealt much more damage than big mouth. Furthermore, with a healer healing him, any blood exchange was worth it.

After taking two hits from Draven's axe, Truke also realized that this Draven was a reckless man who did not care about his own life.

Seeing that he had no hope of getting the second kill, Truke could only surrender and hide behind the minion wave.

Very quickly, Truke realized that this Draven seemed to be very good at playing. And it seemed to have exceeded the average level of shooters in this division?

After all, Truke was a professional player, and he had done his research on most ADCs. The key to playing Draven well was to balance the relationship between receiving the axe and using the A.

For professional players, it wasn't difficult to catch the axe. The difficult part was catching the axe and using an A at the same time. Sometimes, they had to decisively give up on catching the axe and chase after the dying players. If his thoughts weren't clear, it was very likely that he would miss his axe or miss an attack. No matter which situation it was, it would be very harmful to Draven.

But this Draven's movements were very smooth. He continued to land minions and deplete his health. Coupled with the rapidly spinning axe in his hand, the scene was simply too beautiful to be imagined.

Truke had never seen such a fierce Draven before, and they were not used to it. After all, this champion was very difficult to play and was not a popular champion. They rarely encountered it during training or in official competitions, so they were not used to it.

Truke decisively chose to retreat to the tower. Draven was about to level up to Level 2, so going out to farm now was no different from suicide.

However, he was not too worried. At least he was safe under the tower. As long as big mouth could hang on and develop, he could still take over the game through the mid-late team battle.

……

The game had progressed to 5 minutes and 23 seconds.

"FIRST BLOOD!"

...

The sound of first blood resounded throughout the battlefield. The low-HP Draven was trying to escape the range of the turret, but a mouthful of milk from the healer directly restored his HP back up, and he escaped with low HP.

Turke thought that this was unbelievable. 'What's going on? how did I get killed under the tower?'

The players who were watching the live broadcast all saw this scene.

He saw it, but he couldn't understand it.

The process was very simple. Draven quickly pushed the lane, and there was a clear level difference between him and big mouth. Big mouth was reluctant to give up such a large number of minions, so he tried very hard to add a last hit to the tower, and Draven took advantage of this opportunity to keep consuming his energy.

After Draven reached Level 3, the first time he crossed the tower, he tricked the wind lady shield and exhaust. The second time, he tricked big mouth's healer.

Bigmouth was already on the brink of death, but his flash was still there. Seeing the number of minions under the turret, Turke made a wrong decision. After eating these soldiers, he would return to the city.

On the third tower attack, Draven killed bigmouth with a flash and escaped from the tower's attack range with low health. The final result was that Draven and the healer were both on critical HP, but the hero, wind lady, was unable to pursue them.

Two minutes later, the jungler on bigmouth's side realized that they were at a disadvantage at the bottom lane. On the other hand, the opponent's Raven was crazily suppressing the lane. He decisively grabbed the lane, but this had instead caused Turke to fall into a trap.

Under Draven's spinning flying axes, the other three heroes couldn't kill him no matter how hard they tried. After killing the healer, they lost three heads.

"triple kill!"

The low HP Draven returned to the city through the grass, but everyone knew that he had dominated the game.

Especially since Chen Mo was using a top streamer's skin. The audience didn't think much of it at first, but they suddenly realized that the skin's voice chat was really mocking.

"Draven is undergoing a Draven-style relaxation."

"Let's watch today's exciting match between the great Draven and the losers!"

"After resting, Draven will become even more Draven!"

"Be careful, Draven has gotten the endless blade, hahahahaha!"

"Watch and learn!"

……

After gaining a huge advantage in the early stages, Chen Mo's Draven was able to take control of the match, while Turke's mouth had no room to play. It wasn't a problem of skill or technique, because there was no place for him to farm.

Right now, dlaiven's financial advantage was too great. Unless there were four people to capture him, it was impossible to kill him. Chen Zhao had good awareness. If there were really four people, he would've realized it long ago.

The match ended without a doubt. Chen Mo's Draven got 17-2-3, trapping the five opponents in the fountain.

"It's not good to abuse the spring. "

Even though Chen Mo said so, Draven still couldn't help but walk to the edge of the spring and cut down big mouth, who was standing a little further away.

Li jingsi was at a loss for words.

Chen Mo sighed,"sigh, I can't control my hand .."

……

On the live broadcast platform, in the live broadcast room for spectating professional players, the bullet screen was already exploding.

"F * ck, Chen Zhao's Draven is crazy! The other side is a professional player!"

"Even a professional player can't stop Chen Mo ... F * ck."

"This big mouth has really become an explosive output. It's all passive explosions ..."

"This Draven is invincible. Whoever comes will be killed. Why is his damage so high?"

"He caught the axe accurately, dealt high additional damage, killed a lot of people, and gained a lot of passive money. His economy is completely crushed!"

"It's so good to watch, it's simply a torture! I'm impressed by Chen Mo when it comes to beating noobs!"

This Draven slaughter had completely overturned the players 'understanding of this hero.

After the April Fool's Day update, Draven had stolen the limelight with the big-headed doll event. However, Chen Mo had never played any ranked matches since then, and most players didn't realize the strength of this champion. No matter if it was a high-end game or a competition, there were very few people who would ask about it.

But after this, the players realized that this hero was actually so powerful.

All of the livestream viewers had clearly seen how Draven killed with each swing of his axe. Whether it was receiving an axe, using an a, or using A big swing to kill, his performance could be said to be perfect. Moreover, he was extremely calm, and killing was as simple as eating and drinking!

Even though he had fought against three enemies many times, he didn't panic at all. He was like a killing machine that only had eyes for heads, ruthlessly tearing apart the enemy's mental defenses.

This incident also became a small interlude during the rest of the finals, and was talked about by the players.

……

After the ranking match, Chen Mo looked at his phone and saw a message from su Jinyu.

Manager, look at the game editor, the game Committee has a new game draft."

Chen Zhao was stunned. What the hell?

Last time the game Committee was looking for a China themed game, and Chen Mo even made Wulin legend. But since then, the game Committee had not released any new games.

Why are they collecting games again this time?

Chen Mo said to li jingsi, then opened his laptop and entered the game engine to check out the campaign.

Chapter 388: Three Kingdoms mobile game collection

As expected, after opening the editor, Chen Mo saw the announcement in a prominent position.

"Promotion of the Three Kingdoms culture-themed game season activity announcement"

In order to promote the traditional culture of the Three Kingdoms and promote the healthy development of the game industry, the games and virtual reality Committee has designated October 8th to January 8th as the "games of the Three Kingdoms" event season. All designers are invited to use their wisdom to design high-quality games of the Three Kingdoms and promote the culture of the Three Kingdoms.

1. Collecting targets

All game designers.

2. Method of participation

The Three Kingdoms games released in this season would be tacitly evaluated.

3. Design requirements

1. There was no limit to the platform, mobile games, PC games, and VR games were all available.

2. The game was rich in content, with a healthy and positive theme, which could reflect the cultural implications of the Three Kingdoms.

3. It was innovative and clearly different from the traditional Three Kingdoms game on the market.

4. It could adapt to the needs of the market and the characteristics of games in the internet era.

4. Reward content

...

At the end of the quarter, a Review Committee formed by the games and virtual reality Committee would review the game. While ensuring the spirit of the Three Kingdoms, the player's response and market feedback would be important evaluation standards.

There will be one first prize, three second prizes, five third prizes, and a certain number of Excellence Awards.

Award a certificate to the winning designer, and the winning game will be recommended by the official app Store for a month.

It was signed off by the game Committee yesterday.

The format of this announcement was basically the same as the announcement from the last campaign for China themed games, but it included the Three Kingdoms games.

However, Chen Mo was more concerned about the design requirements.

In addition to not being limited by the platform and the theme meeting the culture of the Three Kingdoms, there were two more special requirements. They had to be innovative, adapt to the market demand, and adapt to the characteristics of the game in the internet era.

Chen Mo read it over and over again, and indeed, while these few lines seemed to be quite simple, they clearly reflected the direction of the game committee's campaign.

What did it mean to adapt to the market demand? Obviously, this meant that the game had to be a game that the players loved to play and was profitable.

What did he mean by adapting to the gaming characteristics of the internet era? This meant that it would be best if the game was an online game that could support many people online, and the more people supporting it, the better.

Chen Mo summarized the requirements, and a few words flashed through his mind: Three Kingdoms, online games, strategy games, and pay-to-win.

There were many implications in the spirit of the Three Kingdoms, but the most prominent one should be strategy.

The Three Kingdoms was an era where counselors, generals, and Lords were all shining, and the various battles also reflected the wisdom of the ancient era.

For example, the three visits to the thatched cottage, the trick of injuring oneself, burning red Cliff, the trick of empty city, and so on. These were all points that were deeply rooted in the culture of the Three Kingdoms. Of course, some of these events might have been fabricated by later generations and not the real events of the Three Kingdoms period. However, it was undeniable that these stories had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", an ancient classic.

If he had to make an RPG or a hack-and-slash game, he could do it. However, to best reflect the characteristics of the Three Kingdoms culture, the best choice was still a strategy game.

Chen Mo started to think about what kind of game he should make.

There were indeed many Three Kingdoms games in his previous life, but not many of them met the requirements. In his previous life, some of the Super classic games of the Three Kingdoms, such as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series, were good in all aspects, but the problem was that they were not online games and could not meet the demand of hundreds or thousands of people playing online games at the same time.

Moreover, according to the game committee's requirements, the game had to be 'popular' and 'suitable for the internet era'. A standalone game meant that it could only be sold per set, and the profitability would be far worse. It also didn't fit the characteristics of online games.

Also, Chen Mo was in Shanghai, so he didn't plan on returning to the capital. He planned to take care of the game himself, apart from the art resources. It would be more difficult to make a large PC game.

"Kill of the Three Kingdoms" wasn't bad either, but Chen Mo felt that it should be categorized as a board game. Even though the playstyle and packaging fit perfectly with the Three Kingdoms, it was still limited to the "table" category and couldn't bring out the characteristics of a large-scale war between countries.

After some thought, Chen Mo came up with a suitable game.

Before he started production, he decided to give su Jinyu a call.

Very quickly, the call went through.

"Hello? Manager, have you seen the game recruitment event?" Su Jinyu asked.

"Yeah, I did," Chen Zhao said.

Su Jinyu[are we not going to participate?] Or should we ignore the S1 finals for now and head back to the capital?"

Time was tight as the finals would only be over on the 5th of November. If they returned to the imperial capital to make the game by then, it would be a month late, which was why Su Jinyu asked.

"I'll do it myself this time," Chen Zhao said."You guys can just continue watching."

"Huh?"

"Yes, I'll spend a month to make a mobile game. It's not difficult. You guys don't have to do anything, I'll send the relevant art requirements to the art team in the capital and have them come up with the material for me. I'll handle everything else myself. " Chen Zhao said.

"Uh, manager, Qian Kun, Zheng Hongxi, and I are free these days. We can help." Su Jinyu said.

Chen Mo laughed,"no need. The game I'm making isn't that difficult. It's just a piece of cake for me to do it myself. I'll just look for you guys if I need your help."

"Alright then, manager. Good luck." Su Jinyu was dumbfounded.

……

It wasn't just Chen Mo, the other video game designers also saw the theme game gathering.

"The game Committee has a new game recruitment event? It's the Three Kingdoms theme this time. "

"The Three Kingdoms game ... Is not easy to do."

"Ah? Why? isn't the Three Kingdoms game the best subject matter?"

"This is something you don't understand. Indeed, any game that was wrapped in the Three Kingdoms would be considered a Three Kingdoms game, but if you wanted to make it good and unique? It was too difficult! Because this subject matter has been done too badly, there are many mediocre works and few outstanding works!"

"Also, the game Committee has an additional request this time. They want it to meet market demand? And it would be best if it was an online game?"

"It's not easy. Think about the China themed game last time, Wulin legend was the winner. No one in China could make a wuxia game like that with its rich story and high level of freedom. There will definitely be more people participating in this 'Three Kingdoms' event. I feel like it'll be difficult to break out of the encirclement with so many people!"

"I just want to ask, Chen Zhao probably won't be joining this time, right?"

"Well ... I don't think so. League of Legends is very popular now, and the world Finals are at a critical moment. He should be in Shanghai watching the world Finals. Besides, with his current qualifications, he probably doesn't care about the prize in this event. "

"Yeah, he's already an Honorary Committee member and has a good relationship with the game Committee. He probably doesn't need to suck up to them anymore."

"That's great, I'm more confident now that Chen Mo isn't participating. The Three Kingdoms theme is also my type, I'll do it well this time!"

Chapter 389: Chapter 388-pay-to-win strategy mobile game "leading the land"

Many designers were eager to make a different Three Kingdoms game and win the first prize.

However, the designers who knew the game well knew that it would not be easy to make this game.

The game committee's campaign would usually be for games that were on the losing end of the market, like the China themed games from before.

There were quite a few Three Kingdoms games in the country. Or rather, a lot. However, the quality was very worrying.

As an IP, Three Kingdoms was completely free, which meant that any designer could make games of Three Kingdoms without any barriers.

Although there were a large number of fans of the Three Kingdoms in China, the IP of the Three Kingdoms was the same as the game to the West. It had been seriously overdrawn. The large number of crudely made games of the Three Kingdoms had made most players feel nauseated when they saw the two words "Three Kingdoms" in the game name.

Moreover, the current Three Kingdoms game in the country did not have any special way to reflect the culture of the Three Kingdoms.

Speaking of Three Kingdoms, there was one game that had to be mentioned. It was an MMORPG that had always been very popular, Heavenly Sword of Three Kingdoms. This game, along with Moon Goddess 'prophecy and Legend of the Sword, was one of the top three mmorpgs in the country. It was well-known and had its own unique characteristics.

Heavenly Sword of the Three Kingdoms focused on country war Mode. The players were scattered in the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu, and carried out frequent country Wars and city sieges. At the same time, they could experience some quest plots related to the Three Kingdoms.

Currently, all the Three Kingdoms games that made online games basically followed the path of Heavenly Sword of the Three Kingdoms, which was a war-type RPG game.

Moreover, the game committee's requirements this time were 'market demand' and 'online games', which meant that it was very likely that the single player game would not win.

In comparison, single-player games were easier to make. Whether it was the plot, strategy, or gameplay, it was much easier to make a single-player game because there was no interaction between players. The designer would have a lot more freedom and would not have to worry about uncontrollable situations.

In Chen Mo's previous life, the classic games of the Three Kingdoms, such as 'Records of the Three Kingdoms','legend of Cao Cao','Legends of the Three Kingdoms', and so on, were all single player games. Obviously, these games had more variety in plot performance and strategy, but the problem was that they couldn't be changed into online games.

...

For example, if each player played the role of a Lord, there would be at most a dozen players playing the game together. If they started with different Lords, there would be no guarantee of balance.

Hence, creating a Three Kingdoms themed online game was a headache for all video game designers.

Moreover, because Three Kingdoms was an IP with no threshold, it meant that its potential was almost exhausted. Many designers had racked their brains to make a different Three Kingdoms game, but most of them had failed.

If so many designers didn't come up with anything, it meant that this theme was really hard to come up with.

Under such circumstances, to create a unique Three Kingdoms game? It was extremely difficult.

However, to many video game designers, Chen Mo was busy with the S1 World Championship and might not be participating. This should be the best news.

……

Chen Mo was typing on his laptop in the lounge.

On the computer screen was the design concept for "leading the land".

Compared to the famous games of the Three Kingdoms in Chen Mo's previous life, such as Records of the Three Kingdoms, unparalleled Three Kingdoms, and legend of the Three Kingdoms, leading the land wasn't as well known. However, Chen Mo wanted to make this game because it had something that other games didn't have.

It was a fully free sandbox strategy mobile game that could support tens of thousands of players in a war against a country. As a strategy type of SLG game, it had a 40% tomorrow retention rate and an ARPU of up to 150. Moreover, it had a terrifying long-term retention rate, which was considered outstanding in SLG games.

In Chen Mo's previous life, after the rise of mobile games, there were many mobile games with the Three Kingdoms theme. Setting aside the single-player games, in terms of online games, the land of the guide was one of the best games.

Chen Mo didn't plan on making a big game in the imperial capital. Making a pay-to-win game with an SLG theme should be enough to win a prize in the event.

Moreover, it had been a long time since Chen Mo made a pay-to-win game, so he had to let the players feel his love for them again.

From a technical point of view, it wasn't difficult for Chen Mo to make the land of the guide, and it didn't require much resources.

In terms of art resources, there were nothing more than UI, military arts, Ground arts, etc. Chen Mo just had to send his requirements to the imperial capital and wait for the art team to send back the resources.

The land guide map was a very realistic map of the Three Kingdoms period. It was put together piece by piece, but the land was reused, so the resources were very limited. There were land (wood, stone, iron ore, food, and other resources), rivers, mountains, cities, docks, checkpoints, fortresses, military camps, and so on.

Even though the art of the original was pretty good for a mobile game, Chen Mo wasn't satisfied with just that. He planned to make changes to the game in two areas.

One was the city construction.

There weren't many changes to cities in leading the land, and all the building upgrades were done in the form of charts. Chen Mo planned to directly upgrade the buildings onto the player's cities, so that every time the player leveled up a building, it would be visible on the city.

On the other hand, there was the battle scene.

The combat system of "leading the land" was quite unique. Due to the limitations of the skill level, the combat scenes were very monotonous. Moreover, it was meaningless to watch it or not. It was better to just read the battle report. Although this was nothing to the Veterans, to the newbies, this kind of battle scene had the effect of dissuading them.

Chen Mo planned to improve the entire battle scene to better show the critical points such as the loss of soldiers and the casting of skills. This would allow the players to see the effects of the various tactics more directly. On one hand, it would improve the graphics, and on the other hand, it would allow the newbies to know more clearly what happened during the battle.

Other than that, Chen Mo also planned to make some comprehensive improvements on the general map. For example, when the Army marched, they would stick to the ground more closely and not look like they were floating in the air. The various special effects and performances during the siege would also be comprehensively optimized.

As a SLG game, the playstyle for the mid and late stages of the game were already very mature, so Chen Mo's main goal was to make the game retain more players in the early and mid stages.

Chapter 390: The current situation of the mobile game market

In the lounge, Chen Mo was writing some details about the setting of the land of the guide.

Although this was a mobile game, some of the rules of the state war were rather complicated. This was because there could be dozens or hundreds of players moving at the same time in the same battle. The rules had to be very clear in order to avoid any problems.

Moreover, the combat system of "leading the land" was also very complicated. There were more than 400 combat techniques (skills). The entire combat technique system alone was not something a newbie could understand even after playing for a few months. Therefore, there was a certain amount of work to do.

Just as he was thinking, Zheng Hongxi knocked on the door and came in.

"Manager, I heard that the game Committee is collecting games from the Three Kingdoms? I know everything about the Three Kingdoms. Manager, tell me what kind of game you want to make. I'll take care of the plot, and I promise it'll be good. " Zheng Hongxi was still a little excited.

Chen Zhao looked at him, are you very familiar with the Three Kingdoms? What books have you read?"

Zheng Hongxi said,"" Records of the Three Kingdoms "and" Romance of the Three Kingdoms "!" I've seen them all!"

"Oh." Chen Yu asked,"then, have you read Pei Songzhi's commentary on the Three Kingdoms, as well as records of Shu, Book of Jin, Book of Wei, Wei Lue, historical Records of the Three Kingdoms, Zi Zhi Tong Jian, a compilation of explanations on the Records of the Three Kingdoms, han-Jin spring and autumn?"

Zheng Hongxi was dumbfounded,'...This, I haven't seen it before. Manager, you've seen them all?"

"I haven't seen it either," Chen Mo shook his head.

Zheng Hongxi was speechless.

What the hell, why are you saying that you haven't seen it!

"It's fine," Chen Mo smiled."The game doesn't need a plot, so you don't have to write it."

...

"Ah?" Zheng Hongxi was stunned."How can we promote the culture of the Three Kingdoms without the plot? Even if it's an RPG, there should at least be a main mission, right?"

Chen Mo shook his head,"I don't want the plot." This time, it's a mobile game with a special way of playing. Don't worry. "

"Alright," he said. Zheng Hongxi looked very disappointed."Well, keep it up, manager. If you need any help, you can come to me anytime."

"Alright," he said. Chen Zhao nodded.

Zheng Hongxi thought for a moment and said,"Manager, you're not thinking of making a pay-to-win mobile game with the Three Kingdoms theme, are you?"

"It's also a pay-to-win mobile game,"Chen Mo said.

Zheng Hongxi reminded him,"well, manager, I shouldn't have said that." There are quite a lot of pay-to-win mobile games on the market now. If it's the same card game as Onmyoji, I'm afraid it won't be competitive ..."

Chen Mo nodded,"don't worry, I know what to do."

"Okay, then you better buck up, manager." Zheng Hongxi said,"I'll be in charge of shouting 666."

……

In the current state of the mobile game market, it could be said that pay-to-win games dominated the market.

Onmyoji had been running for two years now, and Chen Mo had done some updates. Even though it was still in the top ten of the mobile game market, it had already started to show signs of decline.

After all, the lifespan of card games was limited, not to mention a game like Onmyoji that was extremely damaging to the liver. The only reason it was still in the top 10 of the best-sellers list was because there were not many strong competitors in parallel world.

The current domestic mobile game market was in a relatively chaotic state.

Onmyoji did reap a huge harvest from the mobile game market when it first appeared, but card games weren't a long-term game after all. The way to play it was relatively monotonous, and most people would get sick of it after a few months.

However, a game that could replace Onmyoji had yet to appear.

However, Onmyoji's appearance did give mobile game designers some inspiration. The mobile game market had great potential and players could accept heavy games.

The mobile game market was currently in a state of chaos. RPG games, card games, and casual puzzle games were all quite good, with a few top-selling RPG games.

However, there weren't any phenomenal games that caused a sensation like Onmyoji.

Many designers were lazy and modified their PC games, transplanting them to mobile games to make money, or creating card games. As a result, there were more shoddy games in these mobile games, and there was a lack of distinctive quality games.

The crude quality of the game wasn't the main point. The main point was the way the game was played. There were only slight innovations and no revolutionary changes.

As for mobile card games, they had almost exhausted all of their playstyles. After Onmyoji, there were still a few decent card games, but the players were already sick of them.

It was getting harder and harder to make money from mobile card games.

Everyone was looking forward to the birth of a better way to play.

……

12th of October, the second round of the S1 finals would begin.

The competition continued. This time, the competition schedule was even more brutal. From the 12th to the 15th, they had to finish a group match every day, which would directly determine the fate of these teams.

The popularity of the second round of the group competition was basically the same as the first round. This number could only be surpassed in the semi-finals or even the finals.

In the end, the four teams that qualified for the next round were settled.

The situation in Group A, B, and C was relatively clear.

In Group A, NRG and DG would advance, in Group B, IF and OST would advance, and in Group C, VSG and MAD would advance.

Among them, because the teams in the group were weaker, NRG advanced with a perfect win record, with a final score of 60. In Group B, IF lost to OST in the second round, and they won against OST in the tiebreaker match to advance to the next round. In Group C, VSG from Europe and MAD from Korea advanced.

What was more surprising was the situation in Group D. Originally, MG was stronger than the Korea team, E Motus, but in the second round of the group stage, E Motus's strength had suddenly improved significantly and he had used two tricks in a row. In the second round of the group stage, he had achieved a score of 3-0 and had directly advanced to the second place of the group stage, pushing out MG.

In this way, the top eight were two domestic teams, three Korea teams, two European teams, and One North American team.

The drawing of lots for the quarter-finals was still based on the principle of avoiding the teams in the same group. That was to say, the teams that had fought in the group stage would not be placed together in the quarter-finals.

The final grouping results were: NRG-MAD, VG-FG, IF-Emotus, WBG-SOT.

The grouping result was no different for NRG or IF, because both teams had won first place in their groups. The teams in the finals were all fighting for the championship, and the two China teams were in the upper and lower half of the zone, so they would not meet early. This was already a very good grouping.

However, there was one thing that puzzled the local teams. How did Korea's E Motus team suddenly become so strong? If the victory of MG was due to luck, then the result of 3-0 in the second round of the group stage could not be simply explained by luck.

After analyzing E Motus's recording, the Chinese teams realized that the discipline and team battle skills of this team seemed to have improved significantly. Their control of their vision was also significantly better than in the first round.

Later, after some clues, the domestic teams finally found out that the Korea team had been secretly training after the first round of the group stage. All the teams had been training together.

This kind of training was not just a practice match. The two strong teams, OT and MAD, simply shared all their hidden tactics and experiences with the other two Korea teams selflessly. E Motus, in particular, had benefited greatly!

Chapter 391: An insult incident

The domestic teams were all dumbfounded. How could this happen?

In fact, there were training tournaments between domestic teams, but not as often. This was because the domestic teams would also have appropriate training tournaments with foreign teams, so the time was relatively tight.

Moreover, the domestic teams didn't think too much about it and didn't share their own routines and tactics.

After all, these strategies might be used in the semi-finals and finals in the future. If he gave them to his brother team, they would use them in the group stage. Wouldn't that mean that he would have one less strategy to use?

Therefore, while they were surprised, the domestic teams were also shocked by the "unity" between the Korea teams.

Chen Zhao was not surprised by this.

The clubs and players in this world didn't know how the Korea teams worked, but Chen Mo did. If the Korea team was to be described in one sentence, it would be that they would do anything to win. The championship was more important than anything else.

It wasn't just the clubs and professional players, the entire e-sports environment in the Korean server was the same. If they lost the game, the trolls in China would at most send some spicy chicken sauce to their players, but the Korea trolls would really send blade pieces and dead rats.

Furthermore, the Korea trolls would still flame even if they were the Champions. When Faker lost the Intercontinental competition, his fans would use the most vicious words to curse his entire family. Bang was flamed like a dog by his fans because he said,"I'm earning more than 100 of you". In the end, he could only say,"I'll use the rest of my life to atone for my sins."

It could be seen how much importance the Korea e-sports circle placed on the championship.

Many people thought that there was fierce competition between the Korea teams and that they would not share their strategies with each other. This was a completely wrong idea.

In Chen Mo's previous life, the reason why the Korea teams didn't share their strategies with each other was because the LK had already dominated the game. They basically won the championship without sharing their strategies.

Even so, the South Korean team only practiced with the Korea team in the world competition. They would never practice with foreign teams to prevent any possibility of tactical leakage.

...

Moreover, even if they played practice matches with foreign teams, they would never come up with any tactics. They would only try to get the other side's tactics for research. Once they found out that the other team didn't play any tricks, they would no longer ask this team to play training matches.

In parallel world, the Korea teams were at a disadvantage. Even the European and American teams,"VSG" and "WBG", posed a threat to the Korean teams, not to mention the Chinese teams that had started earlier. Under such circumstances, it was perfectly normal for the Korean teams to share their strategies and fight for better results.

……

From October 19th to October 29th, the top eight and semi-finals would begin.

The results of the quarter-finals were basically as everyone had predicted. They advanced to the semi-finals with NRG, VSG, IF, and OST, respectively. Among them, team VSG, team IF, and team OST were all recognized as strong teams. There was basically no suspense in the game.

The match between NPC and MAD went on for five rounds. MAD's support player Muffy used Tauren, Blitzcrank, and Zyra to create a lot of trouble for NPC. In the final round, NPC simply banned the support twice and then went for Tauren first, completely limiting Muffy's hero pool. After that, they won the game with a stronger mid-laner and jungler combination.

The popularity of the semi-finals had reached a new high because two Korea teams had been eliminated in the top eight. Both NRG and IF had accumulated a large number of fans during this period of time. Therefore, the number of people watching the two semi-finals had even reached 7.8 million!

For others, this number might not be a big deal because the number of people in the group stage had already reached 7 million. This time, the domestic teams had performed so well and occupied two positions in the top four. It was normal to have a few hundred thousand more viewers.

But to Chen Mo, this number was already very satisfying, because it was close to the number of viewers he had in the S2 of League of Legends in his previous life, 8.3 million.

The reason was that League of Legends was so popular in China, and the number of Chinese players made up the majority of the audience. Chen Mo didn't take too many detours while making League of Legends, and the S1 World Championship this time had gathered some of the classic ideas from his previous life, which was why it successfully attracted the attention of many players.

For the two semi-final matches, the stadium for the finals was completely filled with spectators, and the atmosphere in the stadium was extremely lively.

The match between NRG and VSG started first. After losing the first game, the NRG team adjusted their condition very well. With the strong mid-laner and jungler team up, they finally won the game and successfully advanced to the finals.

It could be said that after winning the BO5 match against MAD, the cohesion and tactical literacy of the entire NRG team had taken a huge leap. Especially since they had learned some fast-paced tactics from MAD, which made it very difficult for VSG to adapt.

Although VG's mid Pure had strong personal ability, under the fast-paced play of the NRG, the European players 'slow-growth strategy was very slow. In the end, they could only watch the NRG advance to the finals.

The battle between IF and OST attracted a large number of attention. Everyone hoped to see IF successfully enter the final and complete the magnificent feat of the two China teams joining forces.

However, the process of the competition was full of twists and turns.

These two teams could also be considered old enemies. In the group stage, the result of IF and OST was 2:1. IF had won first place in the group because of the tiebreaker match.

After that, OST won the quarter-finals by 3:0 had defeated a veteran team from North America, WBG. It could be said that the current OST's strength had improved a certain amount compared to the group stage.

In the case of IF winning the first game, OST turned over two games in a row. In the fourth game, IF tied the score again and the two teams ended with a score of 2: With a score of 2, he entered the deciding game of the fifth round.

In the deciding match, the two sides had a 54-minute tug-of-war, but in the end, OST won, and IF lost.

Although the live audience felt sorry for IF, they still gave a warm round of applause for OST's wonderful performance.

It wouldn't have been a big deal if the whole incident had ended there. The key was the microphone segment of the team battle after the game, which caused the public opinion on the internet to explode in an instant!

Starting from the semi-finals, the event organizers began to release some microphone recordings of the team battle. These recordings were mainly the recordings of the winning team battle, so that the audience could better feel the atmosphere of the team battle and the joy of victory.

The microphones for the two semi-final team battles had been released at the same time, mixed together. In the beginning, the microphones for the NRG and VSG had no problems, but there was a problem with the ones for the OT team.

In the final crucial team battle, OST completed a three for five exchange and wiped out IF, taking advantage of the situation to win the game. However, in this team battle, the Korea team's voice had been silenced as many as six times.

Although the translated Chinese was very normal, the audience was not stupid. It was obvious that these few sentences were not good, so they had censored it without any translation.

The audience could not take it anymore. Many of them were guessing what the silence meant. There were also more and more audience members who demanded that the organizers make this matter clear. If OST really insulted IF's members in the team voice chat, should they punish them accordingly?

Chapter 392: Chapter 391-agitated crowd

In the resting room, Chen Mo listened to the recording of the crucial team battle twice, then looked at the translated text.

Sun Xiao stood at the side and did not say anything.

Chen Mo looked at Sun Xiao."Is this translation correct?" he asked.

Sun Xiao nodded."Of course. Our translators are all professionals. How can they translate a few swear words wrong?"

"Alright." Chen Zhao thought for a moment."Announce it."

Sun Xiao was a little hesitant,"chief Chen, after this announcement, will it stimulate the hatred of the players towards the Korea team?" This ..."

Chen Mo shook his head,"since you've already released the muted version, isn't that equivalent to "there's no evidence"?" The more we let the audience guess, the more they might come up with some nasty words. It's better to just give them the original recording. "

"Then, what about these Korea players?" Sun Xiao asked.

Chen Zhao looked at him."Don't worry about your team. These Korea team members will be punished accordingly. They have to make a public apology." As for the other penalties, there was no need for a penalty or suspension. After all, during a team battle, it was inevitable to get carried away with emotion. I want to see the domestic team beat them on the field. "

Sun Xiao nodded."Yes, chief Chen. I'll get it done now."

Originally, the microphone segment wasn't explained to the players, so they didn't know that their voices would be recorded throughout the game.

Because there was no such segment in the group stage and the top eight, the Korea players obviously got carried away. They swore a lot after winning the last key team battle.

Of course, the quality of these people was not very good to begin with.

...

It was the first time that Yan Huang had encountered such a problem. When he was editing the video, he had already translated the original version. The person in charge of the microphone hesitated for a moment and finally decided to put the muted version in.

After all, this team battle would determine the outcome of the entire BO5. If there were voice messages in the previous team battles, it would be strange if there were no voice messages in this team battle.

Out of this consideration, the person in charge of the show edited the video and uploaded it. He didn't expect that this incident would cause such a stir.

Chen Mo only found out about this after the video was released, but the public opinion on the internet was already out of control, so he had no choice but to release the original recording and warn the Korea team members, ordering them to make a public apology.

……

Yan Huang's official Weibo account released the original microphone for the team battle. Although it did not translate the swearing in Korean, there were so many Korean gods among the players, so the translation of the microphone was done very quickly.

"I'm giving Ezreal my ulti, he's coming! Ah, wait!"

"We won, we won, we won, we won!"

"Airplane! An Airplane!"

"Behind me, behind me, they're hitting me! Nightmare is hitting me!"

"Prince, Prince, Prince!"

"We won! He won this round! We won, we won!"

"Wuwuwuwu!"

"Push, push, push, push! After killing the Prince, push!"

"Kill him! Kill him! You little one!"

"I'll F * ck you to death, you son of a B * tch!"

"F * ck you to death, you little B * stard!"

"Hey, come here, you son of a B * tch ..."

"Haha, kill him, son of a B * tch!"

"Kill him!"

"Okay, we won, we won!"

After this translation was released, all the major forums exploded!

"F * ck, what do these Koreans mean by this?"

"Hehe, I've really seen this quality. I originally had a good impression of OST. A lifetime of darkness!"

"Isn't this considered an insult? Chen Mo? The organizers won't punish them? Even a ban is a light punishment!"

"These people don't want to return to their country alive?"

"Damn it, I'm angry just thinking about it. It's my own fault for not being able to live up to expectations. It's the matter of the last round!"

"Hehe, the audience even applauded when they won in OST, but now they're doing this? The live audience should just throw the light sticks over and smash these idiots to death!"

Clearly, the actions of the OST players were considered a form of abuse. No matter how one looked at it, it was completely against the spirit of competition. It also reflected the low quality of these players.

Apart from the bot player Frost from OST, who remained silent from the start to the end, the other four players were more or less swearing. The jungler in the team said the most.

As soon as the video was released, Chen Mo also posted on Weibo, ordering the Korea players to issue a public apology.

Soon, under pressure, the four Korea players who insulted the IF team members in the microphone issued a public apology.

However, it was clear that the bot jungler was still very unconvinced. He privately expressed that he had no idea that the microphone would be recorded, and that he could only admit that he was unlucky.

The netizens were in a frenzy. Even the overseas official bot account was being criticized by the angry netizens.

However, as the organizer, Chen Mo couldn't do anything else. Although the incident was bad, it didn't involve any racial discrimination. It was just a few vulgarities, not to the extent of a ban.

It could only be said that after this incident, the conflict between the local teams and the Korea teams had reached a peak. All the audience members were looking forward to the final, looking forward to the NRG to ruthlessly slap the faces of the group of players from OT.

……

In the training room of the NRG.

NRG's jungler, Jiang Hao, leaned back in his esports chair and let out a long breath.

"Not bad, this routine works. Let's rest for ten minutes and summarize our experience. Then, we'll continue to test the next routine." Jiang Hao said,"I'll also inform the IF team members to take a short break."

Not long after, Hu Jing pushed the door open and entered.

Jiang Hao raised his head."The plan just now worked. Thank you for your hard work."

After the semi-finals, IF would stay in the hotel and practice with the NRG.

Of course, the two teams were still in different training rooms. This was mainly to consider the problem of sound insulation.

Hu Jing sat down next to Jiang Hao.

"It's nothing. This time, the S1 championship trophy must be kept in the country. We should be the team that understands the most about the OT team. Moreover, our style is relatively similar to that of the OT team. Only we can simulate an OT's playstyle. "

"Besides, those people from OST can't just let it go like that," Hu Jing added after a pause.

"Yes, MAD will definitely train with an bot," Jiang Hao nodded.

"By the way, your team's ADC is weaker in the laning," Hu Jing added."Let Luo Yongchang play with him in the laning tomorrow. At least make sure that the bottom lane won't be too disadvantageous."

Hu Jing patted Jiang Hao's shoulder and said,"good luck. The hopes of the domestic teams are all on you." You're currently the best jungler in the country and I believe that a jungler is a position that can create miracles!"

"I understand." Jiang Hao's expression was very serious."If we can't win the championship this time, we might regret it for the rest of our lives."

Chapter 393: Did Chen Mo go overboard?

The final match would start on November 5th, which was less than a week away.

As the S1 Grand Finals became more and more popular, the Three Kingdoms 'game recruitment event was also in progress.

In this period of time, games with the Three Kingdoms theme had started to appear on the official app Store, and they were all mobile games.

There were also some designers who were designing PC games, but most of them clearly knew that it wasn't easy for PC games to win awards.

This was because client-side games had their own standards, and mobile games had their own standards. Unless the client-side game could reach the standard of heavenly justice Three Kingdoms, it would be very difficult for it to appear on the PC best selling leaderboard.

These mobile games were basically the same, with only RPG or card games. There were some innovations, but the main ones were in the playstyle and story.

On November 2nd, many video game designers suddenly discovered a new mobile game on Thunderbolt gaming platform: "Leading the land"

Chen Mo didn't post anything on Weibo or do any advertising, he just posted it on Thunderbolt gaming platform and the official app Store.

He was calm, but the designers weren 't.

"F * ck, what the hell is this, why did Chen Mo suddenly make a mobile game? "Leading the land"? From the original art of the generals in the screenshot, it looks like ... The Three Kingdoms theme?"

"F * ck, isn't this just for the game committee's Three Kingdoms game gathering? Didn't you say Chen Mo wouldn't be participating?"

"F * ck, you're so popular in League of Legends, and the world Championship is going well, why did you suddenly come back to make mobile games? Are you crazy?"

"I'm so angry! Chen Zhao, can you give us a way out? Was it easy to participate in a game recruitment? Do you really have to win this first prize! I'm so angry!"

...

"That's right, you should focus on your PC games, VR games, and prepare for the World Championship! Can you stop snatching food from us weaklings!"

"I'm so angry! I'm only halfway through my game! Then, am I going to go online or not?"

"I strongly protest! To ensure that there's some suspense, Chen Mo's right to participate is canceled!"

Even though the video game designers were frustrated, there was nothing they could do about it. After all, the video game contest was open to all video game designers, and even if Chen Mo wanted to participate, he couldn't stop them!

After calming down, the video game designers all downloaded the game to see how it was made.

All the designers knew that there were many games in the Three Kingdoms, but they were not easy to make. Chen Mo already had the reputation of "Chen Mo's products are definitely top quality" in the domestic gaming industry, so what kind of innovation would he have in the Three Kingdoms?

But after playing for a while, the designers were a little confused.

He didn't understand how to play this game.

"This game ... What's the situation? I've never seen this type of game before."

"It should be considered a strategy game, SLG, but ... I've never seen such a way of playing it before."

"I didn't even play for ten minutes before I was defeated. I don't understand this game!"

"Yeah, the map of this game is made up of squares. The players have their own city and their own generals, but they don't understand the other ways of playing."

"I'm also very puzzled. This game has no instance dungeon, no plot, no player level. What the hell is this? Without the mainstream method of pushing the map, how could the pace of the game slow down? Are you blind?"

"It seems to be fighting on the ground. There are enemies on every land, and their levels are different. I only got to Level 3 before I left because the monsters in each area seemed to be randomly selected. I didn't understand. "

"It seems like we can fight players here, but it's not interesting."

"Moreover, is this game really considered a Three Kingdoms game? There wasn't even Wei, Shu, or Wu! The birthplace is directly in each state, and the players in the state can fight each other. What the hell is this?"

"There are too many innovations! Chen Mo has created a completely different genre of games, it has nothing in common with the mobile games on the market!"

"I feel like Chen Mo's taking too big a step. He's definitely going to break his balls, right?"

"The players can't accept it, right?"

"It's indeed dangerous. "

"I think with Chen Mo's reputation and Thunderbolt gaming platform's user base, there will be many players who would play."

"It's no use. If the game's quality isn't good enough, the platform won't be able to push it."

"We'll see. Let's wait for the game data to come out. "

Many video game designers who had tried out "land of the guide" did not have high hopes for the game, as the changes were too drastic!

It could be said that "leading the land" was completely different from any other mainstream mobile game on the market. There were no similarities at all.

Not only that, its packaging was different from traditional games with the Three Kingdoms theme.

There were no Wei, Shu, and Wu divisions, but the entire map was divided into different states. Although the setting of "state" did exist in the Three Kingdoms, it was not particularly clear. This was because the changes in the territory during the Three Kingdoms period were particularly violent, and a state could belong to two or three lords.

Moreover, the way of playing this game was really not friendly for novices. Without similar games as a Foundation, the players would be completely dumbfounded after entering "leading the land". They would have to learn everything from the beginning.

To make matters worse, the land of the guide was a SLG game that cost a lot to learn. It was difficult to understand the game, which was not very friendly for players.

The reason mobile card games like I am MT and Onmyoji were so popular was because they were easy to get started with. Be it combat or the various playstyles, it was easy to understand and learn at a glance, and with some plot, it was easy to get into the game.

However, the land of the guide was different. Both the combat system and the daily gameplay were more complicated, and there was no plot. What was worse was that the core fun was hidden deep.

Therefore, for ordinary players, they would be very confused when they first came into contact with the land of the guide. They had no idea what was so fun about the game.

However, even so, the designers didn't dare to jump to conclusions. After all, they had been slapped in the face by Chen Mo too many times.

Almost all of Chen Mo's games were successful. Minecraft, which he thought was just a building game, was able to take mobile, PC, and VR by storm, and Diablo, which he thought was going to die, was able to be revived with a DLC, let alone the mobile game that Chen Mo had first entered.

Many people thought that with Chen Mo's help, there would be no suspense in the Three Kingdoms game gathering. However, after playing the game "leading the land", many people had a glimmer of hope.

Maybe Chen Mo was too creative this time?

Chapter 394: Chapter 393-trial of "leading land"

Very quickly, more and more games from the Three Kingdoms participated in the game recruitment activities.

Most of the works were just following the trend to make up the numbers, but there were also some works of relatively good quality.

The most eye-catching one was a game by ZEN Entertainment,"the heroes of the Three Kingdoms". It was a Three Kingdoms game that slightly innovative card games.

The core of the game was still the same as mobile card games, with maps, battles, and the entire historical background of the Three Kingdoms period strung together.

However, this game's campaign packaging was relatively new. It wasn't the kind of map that was pushed one by one, but an entire map. After the players challenged a key city, they could unlock a part of the big map and slowly unlock the entire Three Kingdoms.

This was a relatively big innovation.

There were also some slight innovations in other ways of playing, such as the general system and equipment system. There were also some traditional ways of playing, such as the soul system, general stars, mount system, and so on.

Apart from that, the game's art was also an important selling point.

The background story of this game was not completely based on the traditional culture of the Three Kingdoms. Instead, it had been magically modified to add the colors of gods and demons to the background of the Three Kingdoms. For example, traditional villains like Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu were designed to be the demon God's descent, and the original art design of the card was very cool.

Although this design wasn't a revolutionary innovation, it at least added a better art skin to the game, making it very different from the other games of the Three Kingdoms.

Moreover, ZEN Entertainment's artists were really skilled. The original arts were very detailed, and the design was great. Not only did they reflect the characteristics of the generals, but they also gave them the color of gods and demons, which was very popular with young people.

If these original arts were outsourced, each of them would cost more than ten thousand Yuan, which was quite expensive.

Moreover, in order to better reflect the characteristics of the country war system, the game had a special country war system. Players could fight freely on the big map and fight for the ownership of each city.

...

However, the game design of this big map was relatively simple. The ownership of the city changed very quickly, and there were no tactics to speak of. However, this playstyle at least created a World War on a large map and could stimulate the players 'sense of honor.

ZEN Entertainment had also done a lot of publicity for the Three Kingdoms 'heroes.

Many designers felt that "the heroes of the Three Kingdoms" was the most promising work to win first place in this game gathering.

Even though the core of the game was still the same as a mobile card game, there were a lot of changes to it, such as the art style, the derivative play styles, and the world War.

Moreover, it wasn't a bad playstyle since mobile card games had been proven to be a successful playstyle by the market. It wouldn't be a big hit, but it wouldn't make losses either, so it was a very safe choice.

As for Chen Mo's land of the leading sand? In comparison, it was too risky. After all, this was a completely new way of playing and was not even related to any previous games or methods of playing. Who could guarantee that the players would buy it?

……

After "leading the land" was released, the players quickly discovered this work.

"Eh? Chen Mo made a Three Kingdoms game? "Leading the land"?"

"This name is weird. However, there was a reason for it. All the land under the sky was the king's land, and all the people on the shore of the land were the king's subjects. I feel like this is a game related to the earth?"

"Uh, a land-snatching game?"

"Who knows, but I didn't expect Chen Mo to be making games of the Three Kingdoms. I always thought he wasn't good at the Three Kingdoms theme."

"How could Chen Mo not be good at the Three Kingdoms theme? it's just an entry theme for many designers."

"But it's not easy to make the Three Kingdoms. There are a bunch of Three Kingdoms games every year, but only a few are really fun."

"We have to try it out. After all, it's Chen Mo's product!"

……

Zheng Hongxi was also playing "leading the land."

Chen Mo completed the game on his own, without su Jinyu or Zheng Hongxi's help.

Zheng Hongxi was also a little curious after learning that the game had no plot. How could he make the Three Kingdoms game well without any plot?

One had to know that the most valuable part of the Three Kingdoms IP was actually its plot. A lot of historical events were classic events, such as straw boat borrowing arrows, burning camp, empty city Strategy, seven capture seven escapees, and so on. Many classic Three Kingdoms games were classic precisely because these historical events were interpreted from different angles, thus improving the original plot of the Three Kingdoms.

However, if he were to cast aside the plot and make a Three Kingdoms game? It was equivalent to giving up a very important aspect of the Three Kingdoms.

Of course, Chen Mo wasn't stupid enough to not think of this. Since he dared to give up on the Three Kingdoms storyline, he had obviously found a way to play it without any harm.

With this curiosity, Zheng Hongxi downloaded "leading the land" on his phone and entered the game.

The first part was a very short opening.

The palace under the dark clouds was brightly lit, and below it was a neat Army. After clicking on the screen, the sun shone through the dark clouds. The screen zoomed in, and the game's login interface appeared.

At the front of the palace, the soldiers were neatly lined up on both sides, and the generals and civil officials were walking up the stairs as if they were about to make an audience. In the palace, a large cauldron that symbolized power was in the center of the picture, looking very majestic.

This opening and login interface was actually very simple and not difficult to do, but it revealed the historical background of the Three Kingdoms era very well, and the atmosphere was also very suitable for the characteristics of the world War.

After logging into Thunderbolt gaming pass, the game officially started.

The first was a very simple CG, followed by dynamic pictures, and sentences of four-word ancient text appeared on the screen.

[At the end of the Han dynasty, the country collapsed; heroes rose together, and the Army became strong;[Endless attack, endless war.]

[All lands under the heavens belong to the king, and all the subjects on the shore of the land belong to the king.]

These dynamic pictures were different scenes. There were troops attacking a city, the Emperor performing a ritual, hundreds of officials worshipping, and fighting in the wilderness ...

Zheng Hongxi could tell that Chen Mo didn't have the time to do such a cool opening, so he only did a simple one. However, these few sentences were enough for a mobile game to be cool.

"As expected, the manager is the best at using the least resources to perform the best." Zheng Hongxi said with emotion.

After entering the game, the screen first changed to focus on a huge city. Luoyang.

[Ancient Luoyang, the important capital of the country, travelling to the resting point, across the world.]

The screen changed again, showing the players a big map of the entire Three Kingdoms period. However, this big map was not divided into Wei, Shu, and Wu kingdoms like the traditional Three Kingdoms game. Instead, it was divided into Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou, Liangzhou, and 13 other states.

[Six directions rest, travel ten thousand miles, set eight directions, take all in the state.]

[The star of the general descends upon the world, setting up his career. The Tiger waits upon the world, and the balance will not stop.]

[With hard work, the sun rises and the sun sets. Peaceful martial arts cultivate literature, rising from a corner.]

This sentence was half-written and half-white, and it was a bit awkward to say. Players who were not good at ancient languages might not understand it.

However, these people probably wouldn't read it seriously. This paragraph might not be understood by all players. In any case, it was cool enough, so everyone just had to understand the spirit.

Zheng Hongxi was in charge of the plot, so he would definitely understand.

In addition to the previous cinematics, these words actually meant: At the end of the Han dynasty, the world was in chaos, and heroes rose up and fought against each other. Luoyang was the world, and whoever obtained Luoyang would obtain the world. The world was huge, and if they wanted to pacify the chaotic world, they had to unify all the states. A General Star had already descended into the world, but he had just started his career and was surrounded by powerful enemies. He had to be careful and slowly develop from a small place to a strong one.

It was obvious that the general stars referred to the players.

Chapter 395: The first experience

Before entering the game, the system prompted that he had to first choose the state where he was going to be born in, which was similar to other world war games.

Zheng Hongxi took a look. He had wanted to choose Qingzhou or Yangzhou, but he found that it was already full, so he chose Liangzhou.

After all, the Western Liang Army had a lot of role in the history of the Three Kingdoms.

After entering the game, Zheng Hongxi was surprised to find that the Luoyang City he had seen before was the game's real scene.

The scene in front of Zheng Hongxi was a wilderness. There were stone mountains, forests, and farmlands in this wilderness. The shot was very high, and the entire Stone Mountain only occupied a very small grid in the picture.

Zheng Hongxi roughly estimated that the screen of the mobile phone could display about 10*10, about 100 small grids, and a mountain or a piece of farmland could only occupy one small grid.

The nine small boxes in the middle of the screen were marked with special borders. There were red and green boxes. Clearly, these should be the main operational areas.

In the middle of the nine squares was a small city that was smoking, and the surrounding red squares were filled with some rebel soldiers and tents.

Obviously, according to the opening plot, this small city should be a player's city, and it was currently being attacked by thieves and was in great danger.

What followed was a series of beginner's instructions.

Under the system notification, Zheng Hongxi started to form a team to fight the thieves.

The combat system of leading land's shore was completely different from the mobile games on the market. Each player can lead multiple troops, and each troop can only bring up to three generals.

Each Army was divided into a main camp, a middle Army, and a Vanguard. If the generals in the main camp were all killed, the battle would be lost. However, Zheng Hongxi's troops had not yet opened the vanguard position. It had to be opened after upgrading the command Hall.

...

After choosing a location, the troops set off.

The process of the expedition was very clear. There was an arrow connected to the target land, and the specific marching time was also marked on the top of the Army model.

Very quickly, the battle between the troops entered the battle scene. In the beginning of the battle, both sides had fewer troops. Zheng Hongxi's cavalry swarmed up and wiped out the opposing troops.

The next step was to recruit generals, continue to attack the enemy, attack the enemy who carried grain, recruit soldiers, and other basic operations.

However, Zheng Hongxi also noticed that the system was gradually guiding the players 'attention from the specific battle scene to the battle report. Later, when they were conquering lands, the battle scene no longer popped up. Instead, a battle report was sent directly to the lower left corner. If players were interested, they could click on it to read it.

Directly skipping the long and meaningless battle process was a good setting for Zheng Hongxi, it saved him a lot of trouble.

After successfully beating back the Raiders, Zheng Hongxi's city was built. It took up nine squares and was starting to take shape.

[System notification: occupy the capital of 13 provinces and you will be able to rule the world. Development will be slow in the early stages. You can expand your influence according to the quest Tips.]

"The beginner's guidance ... Is over?" Zheng Hongxi was a little surprised.

The tutorial for most mobile games was very long because the game itself was more complicated. Basically, every time you unlocked a new playstyle, you would have to be guided once.

However, based on the nature of "leading the land", the first few simple steps were all beginner's guides?

This made Zheng Hongxi a little confused. With only a few steps of guidance, would the players understand?

Next, Zheng Hongxi began to do his missions.

The missions were divided into two parts. One was the mission, and the other was the strategic goal.

The strategic goal was a long-term goal, such as how much land they could occupy, how much resources they could produce, and so on. It could basically be regarded as the core task for a long time.

On the other hand, the quests were more varied. There were building buildings, upgrading buildings, occupying a certain level of land, and so on. Although the quests seemed to have no quest line, they actually did. For example, players had to upgrade the city Lord's mansion before they could unlock the other buildings.

There were still many things that could be done in the early stages. They had to continuously conquer land and upgrade the buildings in the city.

In the beginning, the construction was upgraded relatively quickly. It took a short ten seconds or a long time, but it was soon done.

Zheng Hongxi continued to upgrade his buildings according to the missions and went on expeditions. He indeed had something to do.

The gamers would be rewarded with a lot of resources after completing a mission. It was a comfortable experience for the gamers as they were short of resources in the early stages of the game. The resources from the mission meant that they could continue to upgrade the buildings to the next level.

In the process of playing, Zheng Hongxi also discovered some deeper rules.

The other players 'spawn points were nearby, so they would fight for land. But at the start, everyone was in a battle-free State and could not attack each other.

In other words, whoever owned a piece of land would be the fastest.

The land was also in a battle-immune state after it was occupied, and it could only be attacked after an hour.

They could only go to the land that was adjacent to their own land and could not skip to fight.

Moreover, Zheng Hongxi found that he currently had a novice buff. In addition to the main city's war-exemption protection, he also had accelerated recovery of generals when they were seriously injured, halved the stamina consumption of generals, shortened cooldown time for Alliance participation, and full return of recruitment resources when the generals were removed from the team.

According to the game's General Settings, a general would be seriously injured if he lost, and he could not fight during the seriously injured stage. Every time a general went out to battle, he would consume 20 points of stamina. A general only had 100 points of stamina in total, and when his stamina was used up, he could not go out to battle. After a general was removed from the team, under normal rules, only 80% of the resources would be returned.

Obviously, the newbie buff was a change in the settings to lower the difficulty of the game for newbies.

There were also a few players around Zheng Hongxi. They were all in the wild (no allies), so they all looked like they were marked in red, which made Zheng Hongxi a little flustered.

However, he soon received an Alliance invitation.

System notification: after joining the Alliance, the production of resources will increase. You can use the lands of the Alliance members to go on expeditions and occupy cities as an Alliance.

Obviously, in such a World War game, most of the core players had to rely on the carrier of alliances. It was impossible to play without an Alliance.

There were two allies that invited Zheng Hongxi. One was called Dragon fights the world, and the other was called big farmer. Obviously, the first Alliance won Zheng Hongxi's favor, because the name was a little better.

The Alliance was only Level 1, so it could only add 10 players. It would only be able to add more players after leveling up. There were a few Alliance members next to Zheng Hongxi's city, all of whom were marked with blue blocks, looking much more at ease.

At this moment, the Alliance master began to send a message in the Alliance channel, asking everyone to join the chat group.

Chapter 396: Chapter 395 Alliance

"Uh ... So formal?" Zheng Hongxi was lazy and didn't want to join, but considering that he had to play the game seriously, he could communicate more with the players after entering the chat group, so he still joined.

After joining, Zheng Hongxi found that there were quite a lot of people in the group, more than 80 people.

"So many people?" Zheng Hongxi was a little surprised. There were only 10 people in the Alliance, so how could there be more than 80 people in the chat group?

The Alliance master was a man called "peace conquering general." He explained,"Yes, because the Alliance can only add 10 people in the early stages, we have many sub-leagues. In the future, when the main league's level is higher and there are more positions, everyone will join the main league. "

Zheng Hongxi took a look. It was true. Some of the players in this group were in the Dragon battles the world Guild, some were in the Dragon battles in the wild Guild. In short, their names all started with the word dragon battles.

After chatting with the people in the chat group, Zheng Hongxi quickly understood that these people had been playing this kind of World War game together for a long time. This time, they were collectively playing "leading the land".

There were also some country war games in China, such as "Heavenly Sword of the Three Kingdoms." These games basically used guilds as units for country Wars, so these players naturally formed small groups.

Obviously, the Dragon War Guild had already existed in other world war games before this. Moreover, these players were very sticky and had good relationships. They all spontaneously obeyed the orders of this League leader and changed games as soon as he said so.

Zheng Hongxi typed: "I just started. I'm not good at it."

General jianpingtu: "it's fine. We're all new to this game. There are still many things we don't understand." However, I feel that this game is quite novel. I can look forward to the World War in the later stages. "

"By the way, everyone, remember to hit the ground more in the early stages. That way, the Alliance will level up faster."

Obviously, for these war game enthusiasts, their evaluation of "leading the land" was completely different from those passer-by players.

For players like Zheng Hongxi who had not come into contact with world war games before, the lack of guidance in the early stages of the game and the lack of enjoyment were enough to dissuade him.

...

However, for the players of Dragon Wars, these shortcomings would not make them give up the game. This was because the land of the leading earth had already shown the content related to the World War at the beginning of the game. These players were looking forward to playing the World War part.

How could he hit others? How to attack the city? How could they occupy the 13 state capitals, attack Luoyang, and unify the world?

Obviously, the game had provided such a mechanism. This was something that was worth looking forward to for these war country game enthusiasts. With such a strong sense of honor as a stimulus, they would ignore the dullness and boredom of the early stages and focus on some numerical goals, such as land area, building construction, and so on.

Moreover, as the game progressed, there would always be various small functions reminding the players: Many people were playing this game.

For example, after other players drew five-star generals, they would send an announcement to inform all players. In particular, some rich people drew several five-star cards at once and refreshed the screen continuously. The effect was still very shocking.

In the world Channel, Alliance channel, and state channel, many players were chatting as they played, discussing the world's trends, making the game very lively.

In addition, there would be a special game called "general trend of the world" in the early stages. In this game, the game process of the entire server was divided into many stages, such as the chaos of the yellow Turban, the decline of the Han Dynasty, the chaos of the world, the fierce preparation of troops and horses, the division of warlords, and so on.

The final trend of the world was the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, the invasion of the Central Plains, the sweeping of the world, and the unification of the three.

These major powers all had very clear goals. For example, the [Three Kingdoms] required the capital of three states to be occupied, and the [three parts to one] required all 13 states to be occupied by the same Alliance.

After these stages of the world trend were achieved, there would be some special rewards for all players in the server. For example, everyone could receive Jade talismans (top-up currency), open exclusive card packs for a limited time, and the appearance of a bandit gang stronghold on the map, etc.

These playstyles reminded the players that this was a World War game. Ordinary players might not feel much about it, but to the players who were keen on world wars, it was very novel.

……

It had to be said that with the foundation of other world war games, the people in the Dragon War group quickly picked up the game.

Moreover, the division of labor for these people was very clear. Some of them were responsible for researching how to play the game, including the rules of the organization, the combat system, and so on, writing strategies for the members to see; Some were in charge of setting the rules of the Alliance, such as not being allowed to fight for land, not fighting with other alliances, and letting the Alliance's dedicated diplomats decide and deal with it; Some tycoons were only responsible for providing high-end combat power, charging money and drawing cards in the early stages, and working hard; There were also people in charge of recruiting, sending invitations, emails, and recruitment messages on the world Channel.

Soon, Zheng Hongxi felt like he was playing the game.

"Leading the land" was similar to other war games. It was boring to play it on a single player, but once you joined a more active League and met a group of players who liked the game, the players 'loyalty would be greatly increased.

Moreover, after playing for a while, Zheng Hongxi could clearly feel the fun in the early stages of the game: Land snatching.

The fun of "leading the land to shore" was roughly divided into several stages. In the early stage, it was about snatching land, in the middle stage, it was about fighting cities and unifying the forces in the state, and in the later stage, it was about breaking through and fighting the state war.

It could be said that the game only became truly fun in the middle stage.

However, it did not mean that the early stages were boring.

The fun in the early stages of "leading the land" was mainly to fight for territory and increase one's resource production and power points. This was a relatively simple numerical stimulation. Through some in-game goals, one could build a cycle of "building, land farming, obtaining resources, recruiting, and then continue to build and land farming."

There was no concept of combat power in "leading the land". Players were ranked according to "power points." The so-called power points referred to how much land you occupied. The more land you had and the higher your level, the higher your power points.

Therefore, when the players had a clear goal of 'power points', they would focus on how to seize more land in the early stages.

This was because the high-level lands in the game were limited. The higher the level, the fewer the lands on the map. If you were slow, these lands would be taken by others first.

Therefore, driven by the pressure of resources, many players would choose to constantly adjust their combat techniques, improve the strength of their troops, upgrade their buildings, and challenge higher-grade lands to complete the expansion of their forces as soon as possible.

Chapter 397: Chapter 396-siege

As the Dragon War alliance continued to grow and expand, they began to try to attack some small cities, and the situation in Liangzhou gradually became clear.

The entire server's game progress was based on the general trend of the world. The first goal was to occupy 160000 pieces of land in the entire server. The second goal was to have more than 45 people in an Alliance of 30. The third goal was to eliminate 9 million soldiers in the entire server. The fourth goal was to occupy 15000 pieces of Level 4 land. After that, it would enter the stage of [division by warlords, which required the entire server to occupy more than 20 Level 3 cities.

Basically, in the first few days of the newbie period, all the players were desperately occupying land to increase their resource production and general level. However, some allies who had a better understanding of the game would start organizing some activities to attack the lowest level three cities.

There were certain benefits to occupying a small city. It could increase the production of resources for all members of the Alliance. At the same time, the players who occupied the small city could receive additional taxes.

An Alliance's rule over a region was mainly achieved through these key cities. The more cities they occupied and the higher their rank, the more stable the Alliance's rule over the region was, and the more benefits they would obtain.

According to the Alliance master's request, Zheng Hongxi came online at 8 O' clock that night.

After a few days of hard work, the Dragon War had developed very well. It was the largest Alliance in Liangzhou and could be ranked in the top ten in the entire server. Apart from that, the second largest Alliance in Liang Province was called Qiyue Wuyi, slightly weaker than the War of the Dragon.

The city they were going to attack this time was Yun Street, a level 3 city.

In "leading the land", the lowest level of a city was Level 3, and the highest was level 10 (Luoyang).

In fact, a level 3 city was very easy to conquer, and there were not many buffs. The main purpose of conquering this city was to practice because there would be such city-conquering activities every day in the future. The later cities would be higher in level and harder to conquer, so it was necessary to let the Alliance members get used to this rhythm in advance.

At the forts around Yun Street, Zheng Hongxi's troops were already in position.

If they wanted to attack the city, they had to build fortresses around the city in advance so that the troops could directly attack from the fortresses. If they were to send troops from their own main city, it would take several hours to March, and there was no time at all.

Before the official siege, the Alliance master had already sent an email in the game group to remind them of some things to take note of.

...

The people involved in the siege had to obtain a piece of Level 1 land around the city in advance and build a fortress. On the day of the siege, they had to move their main forces and the siege forces to the Fort to prepare for the siege at night.

Every player had to prepare at least three troops. The main force would be the strongest force and would be responsible for clearing the city's defenders. A siege force was the force with the highest siege points. They didn't need to be full, just enough. They were mainly responsible for taking down the city's defense points. A road-paving troop was usually full of cavalry. They could run faster and were used to pave the road, Scout the path, and so on.

The sieging forces were usually infantrymen. This was because infantrymen had the highest sieging points, but they were also the slowest. They often needed to leave their homes seven or eight hours in advance to rush to the fortress.

Zheng Hongxi looked at the fortresses surrounding Yun Street City. There were at least 60 to 70 people from the Alliance this time. The entire Yun Street City was densely surrounded by fortresses. There were five to six layers of fortresses on the inside and outside, tightly surrounding the city.

Because the Alliance master didn't know how powerful the city's guards were, he called all the people he could in the Alliance.

At 8 O' clock, the siege officially began.

The Alliance's strongest force was called [cloud depths, and their stronghold was in the first row outside of Yun Street City. They had already taken over a portion of Yun Street Urban area and were preparing for the siege.

Yun Street City was a small city, also taking up 9 squares. In the center was the inner city, and the rest were Urban area. Because they couldn't directly attack non-connected lands, they had to first take down a Urban area before attacking Yun Street city's inner city.

Of course, some big cities occupied an even larger area. For example, Wuwei, the capital of Liangzhou, was a level 8 city with 25 squares. They had to destroy two of Urban area before they could attack the inner city.

Very quickly, the Alliance master's email arrived.

"We'll start clearing the garrison now. Yunshen's troops will arrive in Urban area at 8:05, and the rest of the main forces will arrive a minute later. Remember to calculate the time and don't increase unnecessary losses. "

Zheng Hongxi looked at the time. It was now 8:30. His main force was cavalry. If he were to send out troops now, the marching time would be 2 minutes and 12 seconds. In other words, he would be able to send out his troops in a few dozen seconds.

Chapter 398: The situation in Liangzhou

Under everyone's joint attack, Yun Street City was successfully captured!

At the moment of attack, a broadcast message appeared in the middle of the screen. All players in the server could see it clearly.

[Congratulations to the Dragon warring the world for occupying chiyun Street (Level 3)!]

The Alliance channel was immediately filled with cheers and laughter.

"Wow, it's down 6666"

"Amazing, he's so fast. He finished in less than ten minutes!"

"The troops have retreated. The conscripts are sleeping!"

Even in the world Channel, many players from other states were typing to congratulate him.

The alliance leader group sent an email[everyone has worked hard. If you have the ability, you can destroy the other Urban area on Yun Street and increase taxes.] Tomorrow, we'll continue to clear the Jade Gate, the day after tomorrow, we'll rest for a day, and the day after tomorrow, we'll go to the Level 4 city, an Yi. Everyone, prepare in advance. "

The fortresses around Yun Street City started to retreat, and all the players sent their main forces back to their own cities to replenish their lost forces. At the same time, many people's road-paving troops had already headed towards Yumen City and Anyi city. They were prepared to build fortresses and seize a good position in preparation for the siege battle.

In the Alliance chat group, many players were also discussing it.

"I don't think this city is as hard to fight as I thought. There are so many people, so the fight is going on very quickly."

"The main thing is that we've done our homework and studied all the tricks in this game. If we didn't prepare well and went to fight, it definitely wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

...

"That's right. We have to build the fortress in advance, and we also have to have enough troops to attack the city."

"Good! Good luck, everyone! Let's conquer a few more cities tomorrow and unite Liangzhou as soon as possible!"

After taking down Yun Street City, everyone was very excited.

Group activities like this were the best way to strengthen cohesion. Moreover, the siege battle in "leading the land" was different from other world war games. Everyone had to participate in it. The main force would be sent out to destroy the defending Army. Ordinary players also needed to form a siege force to increase the durability of the city's defense. If there were not enough people, it would be impossible to win.

In the early stages, the siege was actually to train the troops and improve the organization and discipline of the entire Alliance, in preparation for the future regional wars.

After a while, the Alliance master spoke in the chat group.

"Everyone, take down my phone number. If there's anything, you can call me directly, no matter what time it is."

Zheng Hongxi,"so dedicated?"

The Alliance master typed[I'm not dedicated.] In this game, if the alliance leader was defeated, the entire Alliance would fall. Therefore, my city must not be attacked. So, everyone, keep an eye out. If there's any sign of trouble, contact me immediately. "

Zheng Hongxi was a little surprised. There was such a rule?

In the end, he checked and found that there really was one.

In this game, players could attack other players at will. As long as all the players 'troops were destroyed and the durability of the player's city was reduced to 0, the player would enter the [fallen] state.

After entering the fallen state, the player would become the attacker's vassal and could no longer fight back. All the plots of the player could be used as a springboard.

In addition, there was a special rule. If the Alliance master fell, all the members of the Alliance would fall as well.

It could be said that once they fell, they would be beyond redemption. At that time, they would only be at the mercy of others. That was why the league Master of Dragon War was so careful and even deliberately told everyone his mobile number so that everyone could contact him at any time.

……

The current situation in Liangzhou was basically a competition between the two alliances, long Zhan and Qiyue Wuyi, while the other small alliances had already submitted.

This was also determined by the way the game was played. In the general trend of the world and its daily activities, if the Alliance occupied more cities, each player would receive a large number of Jade talismans as a reward.

The bigger the Alliance, the greater the rewards. This setting encouraged the Alliance to merge continuously, and players were willing to join larger alliances to seek better rewards.

There were also some unspecialized players who didn't care about the rewards, but these people would soon find that the game was getting harder and harder to play. Sooner or later, they would join the league.

Strictly speaking, the two alliances, long Zhan and Qiyue Wuyi, were currently in a competitive and hostile relationship. This was because the cities in Liang Province were limited. If you take them, I can 't.

However, these two leagues were still in a state of peace because everyone was still in the development stage. Once the war started, it would be a long time, and everyone's development would be affected. It was very likely that both sides would suffer.

In the chat group, the diplomat of Dragon War specifically instructed everyone not to fight Qiyue Wuyi's people to avoid any misunderstandings. If a dispute were to occur, the management would be the first to mediate.

……

During this period of time, Zheng Hongxi's territory was getting bigger and bigger. He could already conquer Level 4 land more smoothly, and the resource resources had a relatively large leap.

In "leading the land," Level 4 and Level 6 were the two relatively large checkpoints. Players could only Challenge Level 4 lands after they had changed all their lands to Level 3 lands, and they would be badly injured.

However, this also reflected the design idea of the game, which was that land resources were becoming scarcer and scarcer, and high-level land was becoming more and more difficult to find. In the future, if they wanted more land, they would have to fight for it. After they finished fighting for the land in the province, they would have to fight for the land in the other provinces.

At present, the goal of the Dragon War Guild was relatively clear, which was to develop first and start from a level 3 small city to complete the world's momentum.

……

After playing for a few days, Zheng Hongxi realized that most of the people in the Alliance were night owls.

In fact, these players were not born to be night owls. It was mainly because they had played the game "leading the land" a lot, so they naturally became night owls.

Many of the activities in the game were counted in "hours", such as upgrading a high-level building, mass recruitment of soldiers, or going to distant lands. They often took several hours to complete.

What if it happened to be completed in the middle of the night?

For example, when the troops were all gone, they needed to recruit more soldiers before they could continue to fight. The recruitment time was two in the morning. Of course, it was fine if you didn't care, but if you only woke up at 8, and the general stamina was full, then the 6 hours of general stamina would be wasted.

In order to save resources, most players would choose to go online at 2 O' clock, go on two expeditions to exhaust some of their stamina, then sleep and wait for their stamina to recover naturally the next day.

It was the same for building a building. If the building was completed in the early hours of the morning and you did not build a new building, then there would be an empty building queue within these few hours, which was equivalent to a waste.

Therefore, most players naturally became night owls as they played. Some hardcore players even set an alarm and got up on time to play. After playing for more than ten minutes, they would finish everything before going back to sleep.

Zheng Hongxi was the same. At 2 am, his alarm clock rang.

Opening his drowsy eyes, Zheng Hongxi fumbled for his phone and opened "leading the land". He was ready to go online to upgrade the buildings and sweep through a few Level 4 lands to consume the general's physical strength.

He noticed a red line on the map.

"What?"

At first, Zheng Hongxi didn't pay much attention, but he inadvertently realized that the red line seemed to be heading in the direction of the Alliance master?

He found the Alliance master's city and was surprised to find that several fortresses were under construction not far from the Alliance master. Two of them were already completed and troops were being sent to pave the road!

Chapter 399: Chapter 398-night attack

"T-these fortresses?"

Zheng Hongxi was instantly invigorated. These fortresses were all Qiyue Wuyi's fortresses, and they were all neatly built five squares away from the city of the Dragon War Guild's Alliance master. What they were up to was obvious.

They were going to fall to the alliance leader of Dragon War!

It was obvious that these people had come prepared.

There was a vision rule in "leading the land". The area within five squares outside the main city and two squares outside the fortress was within the player's field of vision. Once the enemy players used these lands as their military destination, an eye-catching red line would appear. Moreover, an enemy Army's UI symbol would appear on the player's UI. After clicking on it, the player could jump to the enemy Army's location.

It was obvious that Qiyue Wuyi's men had a plan. They purposely avoided the Dragon War alliance leader's field of vision and chose to build the fortress at the Fifth District of the main city. This way, they wouldn't be discovered.

It would take a few hours to build the fortress. If they were discovered, the people of Dragon War would be prepared.

When the fortress was built and the troops were all in place, Qiyue Wuyi's men could directly focus fire on the alliance leader of Dragon War. By then, it would be around 4 or 5 in the morning, and Dragon war's men wouldn't be able to react at all.

However, since the players were still newbies, there were two players who made a mistake and chose the land around the fortress as their destination, which exposed the movement of the troops.

With that, Qiyue Wuyi's plan to attack at night was discovered by Zheng Hongxi.

Zheng Hongxi suddenly sat up.

The chat group was quiet. Most people were asleep at two in the morning. Zheng Hongxi didn't dare to delay. He found the president's phone number and called.

"Hello?" It was an unfamiliar voice. He had clearly just woken up.

...

"Alliance leader, quickly come online. Qiyue Wuyi's people are building a fortress near your city. They might want to attack you!" Zheng Hongxi said.

"What? Alright, I'll be online immediately!"

After saying that, the Alliance master hung up in a hurry. He had obviously logged into the game.

Two minutes later, the Alliance chat group exploded.

"Quick, everyone online, come out!" Someone from Qiyue Wuyi wants to rape me, type 1. "

Soon, six or seven people had hit the number 1. Obviously, these people were all night owls, and they were still awake.

"What's wrong, Alliance master?"

"What? Qiyue Wuyi's people want to take you? When was that?"

"F * ck! I just realized that the fortress is almost at the entrance of the Alliance master's house! What should we do, Alliance master?"

"Don't panic, there's an emergency plan,"general jianpingtu said. Those of you who are online, go to my main city and buy a piece of land to build a fortress. Don't get too close to my main city, just four or five squares away. "

"Is it too late to repair the fortress now?" Zheng Hongxi typed.

The Jianping tu general: "there's still time. You probably won't be able to get rid of me tonight. But from tomorrow onwards, our two alliances will definitely officially start a war." If we make preparations early, we won't be in a passive position later on. "

"Also, those who are closer to my home, quickly send the main force to guard my city. Pay attention to the most central position. Don't guard the wrong place."

"There are too few of us, should we call yunshen and the others over?" someone asked.

"I'll make the call, you guys go ahead with your work. "

Soon, almost half of the members of Dragon War were woken up by the phone.

After all, these members of Dragon War had come from other online games. They were all familiar with each other and had each other's contact methods. Therefore, the league Master directly called them and woke them up, asking them to send their main forces over to defend.

At the same time, the alliance leader of Dragon Wars, general Jian Pingtu, started to defend.

[Defense] was a special function in "leading the land". It required three hours of preparation. After the preparation was completed, one could enter the defense state. This state was equivalent to avoiding battle and no enemy could attack. The defense state had to end after five hours.

If it were an old player, as a league leader, he would definitely have to activate defense every day before going offline. However, these people were all newbies, after all, and they did not expect the other party to choose this time to attack, so they were careless.

They would start defending from 2:30, and the most dangerous time was the preparation stage between 2:30 and 5:30. If they were destroyed by the enemy during this period of time, the entire Alliance would fall, and it would be over for them. If they managed to hold their ground during this period, they would be exempted from battle until 10:30 the next morning, which was equivalent to a chance to catch their breath.

Fortunately, Dragon War had an emergency plan, and their organization and discipline were good. So, these people quickly began to take action.

Gao Zhan, regardless of distance, pulled all the main forces to help defend the Alliance master's city to ensure that the Alliance master would not fall before the defense preparations were complete. All the other members who were online began to build fortresses near the Alliance master, ready to provide support at the first moment.

They were racing against time.

In fact, there weren't many people in Qiyue Wuyi, only a dozen or so. After all, most players still had to work the next day, and there were only a few who didn't sleep at night to play.

These people quickly realized that their intentions had been exposed, so they also seized the time to mobilize their troops. A few players who were closer directly sent their troops, wanting to finish the battle before the Dragon War Alliance's high-level battle arrived.

All of a sudden, the scene became extremely chaotic.

The military strength of the Jianping tu General's troops was decent, but he was not a tycoon, so he could at most take on two or three enemy main forces. The key was still the other troops stationed there.

The enemy forces were already paving the way to the main city of the Jianping tu general. They were clearing the land piece by piece, ready to attack Urban area.

However, these people were not ready yet. The few troops that had arrived were basically all cavalry troops. Although their combat power was good, they could not break the durability of the city in one attack, so the progress was greatly slowed.

Soon, a few troops that were closer to the Alliance master arrived and stationed themselves in the center of the city. Several high-level combat troops of the Dragon War alliance were already on the way and would arrive in less than an hour.

Once the defense was successful, the enemy would have to destroy the defense team first if they wanted to capture the Alliance master.

There were more and more people in the group chat, all asking about the current situation of the battle.

"I'm here. I just got online. How's it going?"

"Have all the expert Battlemasters come? Is the Alliance master alright?"

"I'll immediately send troops over. They'll be there in half an hour!"

In the game, blue arrows could be seen everywhere in Liangzhou, pointing to the Alliance master's position.

At 3:40 am, Qiyue Wuyi's players officially launched their attack!

After an hour of tug-of-war, the outer Urban area had already fallen, and once the Main City fell, the entire Dragon War would become Qiyue Wuyi's subordinate.

On the other hand, it would take nearly two hours for the [defense mode] to be activated.

Everyone was nervously paying attention to the situation on the battlefield. At this stage, it was purely a head-on clash to see which side's combat power was higher!

Chapter 400: Chapter 399 defense

The first red arrow connected to the Jianping tu General's inner Urban area. Soon, the second and third Red Arrows ...

Qiyue Wuyi's forts had already been repaired, and the troops in these forts attacked the alliance leader of Dragon War at almost the same time.

At this moment, there were 10 Dragon War troops stationed there. These were the main forces sent by the members who were closer to the Alliance master, so they arrived faster.

The first unit crashed into the enemy, and the red number 10 on the garrison turned into 9.

Zheng Hongxi heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that the opponents were not some high-level battle.

Looking through the battle records, Zheng Hongxi found that the other party's unit was not very strong. They were basically on the same level as his own unit. He could only say that this student only worked hard and did not pay in game.

But just as Zheng Hongxi heaved a sigh of relief, the second enemy force crashed into them, and the number of Garrison troops instantly changed from 9 to 4!

This enemy force had directly destroyed five of the garrison troops!

Zheng Hongxi panicked. He hurriedly opened the battle report and found that the other party was a small group of Wei cavalrymen, which was a formation made up of three Wei cavalrymen. That was why they could directly penetrate the five troops on this side.

"This is their league's battle?"

"F * ck, they've already formed a team so early? The pure Wei Qi combination is really awesome!"

"But he still has remnants of his troops. He can still pass through again when he returns to the fortress!"

"What do we do, what do we do?"

...

"Is there anyone nearby who's online? All the troops, gather! Bring the attacking forces over as well, as many as you can!"

"Those who are within 30 minutes, come over. There's no need for those further away. We won't make it in time!"

"Where's yunshen's main force? How long more before we arrive?"

"There's still ten more minutes. Hold on!"

There was also a bit of panic in the chat group as everyone was discussing the battle situation in real-time.

The line-up in "leading the land" was different from the other games of the Three Kingdoms. The other games encouraged the mixing and matching of different types of troops, but "leading the land" encouraged the same camp and the same type of troops.

In other words, if three generals of the same Army were of the same camp and type of Army, they would receive an additional bonus. The little Wei cavalry referred to the four-star Guo Jia, Cao Zhang, and Cao Ren. These generals were all called four-star divine generals, and they were extremely powerful in the early stages of the war.

However, the small Wei cavalry was only useful in the early stages. In the middle stage, even the great Wei cavalry (Xiahou Yuan, Xun Yu, Cao Cao) were just food for Wu Gong.

However, the current little Wei riders were enough to cause huge trouble for the Dragon battle.

Soon, the second and third troops ...

Qiyue Wuyi's troops kept clashing with the defending troops, and after the first round of battle, the defending troops of long Zhan were all defeated and sent back home!

At this moment, all of Qiyue Wuyi's troops in the fortress had moved out, and the dense Red Arrows were pointing at the central Urban area where the alliance leader of Dragon War no longer had any troops stationed!

"We're finished!"

"What do we do, we don't have time!"

"Why does yunshen still have three minutes? I'm worried."

Everyone in the chat group was panicking. If Qiyue Wuyi's troops had more city assaulters, they could destroy the Alliance master's city defense points in one round. After all, a player's city's defense wasn't as high as an NPC city 's, and under the concentrated fire, it would be destroyed very quickly.

However, it would take another three minutes for the Dragon War's highest battle cloud, unknown depths, to arrive. It all depended on whether or not the Alliance master's city would be broken through this round.

The fate of the entire Liangzhou would depend on these three minutes. Whether the city was conquered or not, Liangzhou would walk on two completely different paths.

"The first collision was against a cavalry unit. Fortunately, the city's defense only dropped by less than 20 points."

"There's an Archer in the second unit, but he lost 70 this time. "

"The third unit is the cavalry unit again. They lost 33 points."

Everyone was nervously paying attention to the city defense value of the Alliance master's Urban area. In the beginning, the players 'city defense value was only 900 points. If it was an infantry force that was specifically used to attack cities, they would lose one or two hundred points with each collision.

Luckily, Qiyue Wuyi's preparations were very rushed, and the troops that could be gathered were mostly cavalry. Although they ran fast, their attack points were very low, so their durability dropped very slowly.

During this time, two more troops arrived, delaying Qiyue Wuyi's siege.

"Hold on!"

"F * ck, there are still 300 points of city defense left. The other side still has a lot of stamina!"

"Yunshen's almost here!"

"That's great, yunshen is on guard!"

Finally, when the Alliance master's main city only had 210 defense points left, the main force of the cloud recesses finally arrived and successfully stationed themselves in the main city of the Jianping general.

Groups of enemy troops were still heading toward the Main City, but these troops all ran into the garrison troops in cloud recesses. Five or six troops ran into them in a row, but the garrison troops did not move!

Qiyue Wuyi's people were stunned. They had thought that victory was in sight, but the 10 troops that had crashed into them all returned without any success!

Qiyue Wuyi's Alliance channel was already in chaos.

"What's the situation? Do you still have any troops left? hurry up and crash into them! The leader of Dragon War only has 200 hp left. Two more rounds and we'll be done for!"

"F * ck, the enemy's troops have arrived. He's defeated ten troops by himself! Just look at the battle report. "

"What's this? Why is this cloud depths so powerful?"

"Look at his two generals, Lu Meng and Zhou Yu!"

"F * ck, you're joking, right? How could there be such a perverted tycoon in the Dragon battle? Even Lu Meng has come out?"

"Damn, he still has a lot of troops. He can't rush down."

"But our troops are still on their way."

"It's useless. The difference in combat power is too great. Most of our forces are cavalrymen. They're just food for us!"

"We can't care that much. There's no turning back. Tonight is our best chance. If we can't win and fall into a tug-of-war, the situation will be very bad for us! All the mobile troops at the front line, gather up and crash! We'll kill this tycoon even if we have to take his head!"

Qiyue Wuyi's people were like crazy as they sent their troops up, wanting to take out the main forces of cloud depths unknown place.

However, it was completely useless. Another three or four teams charged forward, but they were all killed in seconds.

In the game, Lu Meng and Zhou Yu were both five-star divine generals. The "Viceroy" lineup that was invincible in the mid-game and could be useful in the late-game was the combination of Lu Meng, Sun Quan, and Zhou Yu, the three archers of Wu.

Lu Meng's skill was crossing the river in white, which could prevent the enemy from attacking normally for the first two rounds of the battle. After this effect ended, he could immediately launch a strategic (magic) attack on the enemy.

On the other hand, Zhou Yu's skill was to launch a strategic attack on the enemy and cause them to enter a state of fear, making them unable to attack normally for two rounds.

It could be said that when these two generals worked together, the other side's generals who relied on physical attacks could only watch helplessly, unable to cause any damage at all. The two generals 'damage output was also very high, and all kinds of magic attacks hit the other side, making them lose their bearings.

Chapter 401: Chapter 400-back and forth battle

Of course, this lineup and sun Quan's awakenings would be considered the complete "Governor". However, it wasn't the late stage yet and the COST of the lineup was limited. He could only bring these two generals.

(In "leading the land," every general had a COST value, and there was a COST limit for the lineup. Therefore, only two divine generals could be brought in the early stage. Only when the total COST was higher in the later stage could the perfect lineup be created.)

Most of Qiyue Wuyi's troops were cavalry units that dealt physical damage. When they encountered Lu Meng and Zhou Yu, they were like the nemesis of the heavens, and they had no way to fight back.

As for the siege teams, they were even worse off. The siege teams basically had no fighting power and were just there to die.

Until Qiyue Wuyi's troops at the front line were all wiped out, there was still half of the Army left in the cloud recesses!

The Dragon War chat group was in a jubilant mood.

"Awesome, he managed to defend it!"

"F * ck, yunshen's two generals are too strong. They'll kill as many as they come!"

"I'm looking at the battle report. Yun Shen annihilated more than ten teams by himself!"

"The other side has no more soldiers. Quick, are there any other people nearby? Pull out the siege troops and destroy their fortress!"

"There's no rush. We'll slowly take care of them after the Alliance master's defense is broken through!"

At 5:34 A. M., The siege General's defense was successfully activated!

Everyone in Dragon War heaved a sigh of relief. The Alliance master's defense was activated, which meant that they could take a break for this defensive battle. In the next five hours, the Alliance master's city would be invincible.

...

Next, it was time for an all-out counterattack.

The troops in the cloud recesses retreated, preparing to return to the battlefield after recruiting soldiers. The other player fortresses were also under construction, and they would probably be finished by seven or eight in the morning.

In the chat group, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

General Jian Pingtu: "alright, it's been hard on everyone. We've finally managed to hold the fort." Everyone, go out and eat something, then go back to sleep. There will definitely be a tough battle today, so everyone should pay attention to rest. "

The others were excited.

"Alliance leader, Qiyue Wuyi's people are fighting without declaring war, right? A sneak attack? Let's go and capture their alliance master!"

"That's right! We should drive these bastards out of Liangzhou!"

"Right! Chase him out of Liangzhou!"

"Don't worry, everyone. Let's rest first. " "I've already sent a group mail. Your fortress has already been set up. Transfer your troops over and start tearing down the enemy's fortress. Tear down all the red lands. It's only safe this way. "

[Dragon War] sent an email to the alliance leader group, informing all Alliance members of the results of last night's battle.

"This morning, Qiyue Wuyi's people started a battle without a declaration and wanted to ambush the alliance leader! Fortunately, someone discovered it in time and managed to defend it. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. Anyone who reads this mail, build a fortress near the coordinates (291,218). All future activities will be canceled. Liangzhou's Civil War has begun!"

At 8 O' clock in the morning, the other players of the Dragon War started to come online one after another. When they saw so many new messages in the chat group, they were all a little dumbfounded.

But when they looked at the content of the chat, everyone exploded.

"What? Qiyue Wuyi's people are planning a sneak attack?"

"They started fighting?"

"F * ck, a civil war has started in Liangzhou?"

"Those bastards! I'll go to the World Channel and scold them!"

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation because this matter had happened too suddenly. It was simply a breach of morality and was despised by everyone.

From five to eight in the morning, the people from the two alliances went to rest, ate breakfast, and went to work.

After eighto' clock, the world Channel suddenly became lively.

"Everyone, look at the coordinates (291,218)."

"What the f * ck? This was a night attack? Is there a civil war in Liangzhou?"

"...Something so big happened in one night?"

"Exciting! The first state to have a civil war. Qiyue Wuyi's people have courage, I admire you!"

"We've built so many fortresses, but they still haven't been taken down? The people of Qiyue Wuyi are so useless?"

"It's said that there's a high-level battle at Dragon War. He blocked seventeen teams by himself."

"Then what's the point of fighting, Qiyue Wuyi's people should surrender! If we can't even win this, it's impossible for us to win later!"

It wasn't just the spectators from the other states who were watching the show. The two allies, Qiyue Wuyi and Dragon War, were also cursing in the world Channel.

The members of Dragon War were the most furious. They had agreed to develop peacefully, but they started a war without any announcement and directly attacked their alliance leader in the middle of the night. This kind of behavior was too shameless!

This was simply treachery and immoral!

However, Qiyue Wuyi's men also argued that Liangzhou would be unified sooner or later. If they didn't take over Dragon War, they would be taken over by Dragon War. Moreover, Qiyue Wuyi was at a disadvantage, so a sneak attack was the only way.

Besides, a night attack was the usual strategy of the Three Kingdoms. According to what you said, shouldn't lu Meng also apologize to Liu Bei?

The two alliances were at war.

Even though they were fighting, no one was idle. Those who had been fighting and developing all started to build fortresses near the front lines. On the side of the Dragon War, those who woke up early had already mobilized their troops over to fight with Qiyue Wuyi's people.

The reason why "leading the land" was tiring to play was that once such internal or state wars started, it could be as short as a few weeks or as long as a few months. Furthermore, the war would go on day and night without any rest.

However, this was the most exciting part of the game. Other games couldn't do this kind of night attack at all because the mechanism didn't support it.

Zheng Hongxi got up and had some breakfast. Instead, he felt more energetic. After sleeping for two to three hours, he got up again and sent his fully-recruited troops to the front line.

There were more and more people at the front line. Red and blue arrows were everywhere, and the battle was intense.

To Qiyue Wuyi, if a sneak attack didn't work, they could only attack. However, since Dragon Warrior had already discovered them, they wouldn't be able to gain any advantage.

This kind of large-scale battle was often fought around a certain core point, such as strategic locations, cities, and so on. There were more variations, but overall, it was a flat push.

The fortresses of both sides were at least a screen's distance away, more than a dozen squares apart. Everyone had to send troops from the fortresses, so the fight for the group of fortresses became the most important.

The line of defense began to go back and forth. Both sides were repeatedly fighting for the land in the middle of the two major fortress groups. After the land was taken, the troops would defend it, and then they would attack the land in front.

The enemy would also send troops to penetrate the garrison and take back the land.

The commanders on both sides were constantly sending group emails.

"(291,222), this red plot is gone."

"(294,217) there's a powerful force here, Gao Zhan Shang."

"This is an empty fortress. The attacking forces will directly attack and tear it down. Be careful of the enemy's Garrison. If they discover any Garrison, retreat immediately."

"(295,193) scouting unit, go and see what kind of formation the defending troops have."

Chapter 402: Strategy for the league war

In such a large-scale battle, Zheng Hongxi quickly understood how the league war in "leading the land" should be fought.

Because it had a completely different mechanism from other games, every player could play a role in "leading the land". Even a player with zero in-game purchases would be a valuable asset to an Alliance as long as they played it every day.

In such a large-scale Alliance War, the players would at least organize three troops, one main force, one siege force, and one Pathfinder/paving team.

It was different from attacking NPC cities. When attacking players, the siege troops did not need to bring troops because the siege troops could not defeat the enemy's main force. They could only avoid the main force and destroy the land and fortresses. However, these low-level lands and player fortresses could be destroyed without the need for troops.

During the Alliance War, a player's main missions included the following.

First, kill the enemy's living power. This was the mission of the main force. Find the position of the enemy's main force and then attack. They would cripple the enemy's main force and open up a path for their own attacking forces.

Of course, whether you killed or injured the enemy depended on how strong your main force was. To determine the strength of the enemy, they had to first send a Suicide Squad to test the waters. After confirming that they could defeat the enemy, sending the main force was a more secure method.

Second, to defend the strategic location, which was also the mission of the main force. When the troops took down some key locations (such as neutral fortresses in the wild, gaps in the enemy's Fortress Group, etc.), They could send their main forces to guard the land and use it as a springboard to continue attacking the surrounding lands.

Obviously, the other party would also launch an attack on this plot of land. At this time, there must be a main force stationed to ensure that this plot of land was occupied and could not be snatched back.

Moreover, if they wanted to move forward, they would have to build a group of fortresses at a certain distance. The fortresses were very fragile during construction and could be destroyed by any siege force, so they also needed the protection of the main force.

...

Third, to flip the ground and destroy the enemy's buildings. This was mainly the task of the siege forces. In the Alliance War, as long as the number of troops that had siege points above 100, they could be considered a siege force.

(Because each grid occupied by players has at least 100 city defense points. Only when the siege points of the Army is more than 100 can the enemy occupy the grid in one go. Otherwise, they will have to fight twice.)

Since both sides relied on the fortresses to fight, once a player's fortress at the front line was destroyed, it meant that his troops would have nowhere to go. They would either be stationed at the front line and unable to move, waiting to be slaughtered, or they would have to retreat.

Fourth, explore the way. This was mainly the mission of the Suicide Squad. Every player had to form a Suicide Squad, which was a cavalryman that could run fast. They would not bring any troops with them, just to explore the way and see how strong the enemy forces were. After confirming, they could send the main force to attack.

Of course, the commander had to make a series of strategic decisions during the battle.

For example, where would be the most suitable location for the fortresses? If they were too close to the front line, they would be easily defeated, and if they were too far away, it would be inconvenient to mobilize them. When should they defend? When should they attack? How many main forces does the enemy have, and which forces should we use to defeat them?

If they made a wrong decision and the enemy found a loophole, they would lose a fortress chain, which could lead to a defeat in a crucial battle, which would be very demoralizing.

Moreover, Zheng Hongxi quickly felt that in "leading the land," although rich players were important, civilian players were also very important because the two played completely different roles and were indispensable.

Obviously, as a pay-to-win game, it was impossible and impossible for every player to be equal. However, it used another way to allow civilian players to make some contributions to the battlefield.

The only difference between spending money and not spending money in "leading the land" was whether your general was strong enough. For example, it was normal for a rich man to be able to defeat a team of more than a dozen civilian players with a governor's lineup. However, this did not mean that the rich could do whatever they wanted.

Resources could not be bought, and the recruitment of soldiers could not be accelerated. The time of deployment was fixed, and props could not be used to accelerate it.

In a battle at a key location, the rich could indeed play a very crucial role. For example, you want to defend a key checkpoint and have more than a dozen troops stationed there. In the end, the tycoon will come alone and destroy all of your troops, and the battle will be over.

Or you had to take down a checkpoint, but the rich were stationed at the checkpoint. Similarly, the dozens of civilian troops could not rush down, which would be a pain in the ass.

However, no matter how strong the tycoon was, his general only had 100 stamina points and could only move five times. Moreover, it took time for the troops to move. Everyone could clearly see the movement and arrival time of the troops, so the civilian players could completely avoid them and let the rich players hit nothing.

It doesn't matter if the nouveau riche is stationed somewhere. We can take a detour and not confront them directly.

In addition to the absolute advantage of the tycoons in killing enemies and defending, things like overturning the land, attacking the city, exploring the way, and paving the way were equally important. Moreover, anyone could do it. If the civilians were willing to spend time and were smart, they could completely fool the tycoons.

Furthermore, as the game progressed, many commoner players with good looks could also gather a good lineup. As the game progressed, the gap between commoners and tycoons would continue to narrow.

In addition to the restraint of the different types of soldiers, the wealthy formed a very strong Wei cavalry lineup, but the commoners just happened to have a set of Wu bows. Then, the two sides might at most fight to a draw, but it was impossible for the wealthy to win.

As the game went on, one would realize that having a clear mind, a variety of tactics, and a group of civilian players who knew how to play and had more time was far more important than having a local tycoon.

...

The Alliance War between Dragon War and Qiyue Wuyi was slowly turning into a white-hot war.

There were even more people in the Dragon War, and with the help of a tycoon like the cloud depths, they quickly destroyed all the enemy fortresses around the alliance leader and gradually pushed the battlefield towards the position of the alliance leader, Qiyue Wuyi.

A civil war within the same province was different from a regional war between provinces. During a civil war, the focus was basically on the cities of the two Alliance Masters. This was because it was only meaningful if the Alliance master fell. Whoever lost the Alliance master first would lose.

Moreover, the players of these two alliances were spread all over Liangzhou, and everyone could use their allies 'land as a springboard to fly anywhere. Therefore, the people of Dragon War quickly opened up a second battlefield near the alliance leader of Qiyue Wuyi, turning from defense to attack.

After this lesson, the league Master of Dragon War learned his lesson. He kept the group of fortresses that other people built around his main city and started to defend it before going to bed every night. He also started to build his own sub-cities. In case of an emergency, he could move the city and leave.

Chapter 403: Qing Yangzhou splits up Xu Prefecture

"Leading the land" was different from other SLG games, where players could not move cities at will.

This was because the Alliance master's city was too important. If the other party had spent so much effort to attack the Alliance master's city, only for the Alliance master to spend money to move the city away, there would be no strategy at all.

In "leading the land by the shore", if one wanted to move a city, they had to build a sub-city in advance, and the main city could only move to the place where the sub-city was.

This was a protective measure for the Alliance master, and it was also a countermeasure for the enemy. In any case, if they found out that you were building a sub-city, they could just stop you in advance.

It could be said that Qiyue Wuyi could no longer be the alliance leader of the warring Dragon Alliance. The night attack was their best chance. If that night attack had been successful, they would have been able to unify the entire Liang Province. Unfortunately, they did not succeed, and the Dragon War would not give them a second chance.

Although the Dragon battle team had won one victory after another, the battle was still in a stalemate.

Because the entire Liangzhou was too big, with more than 100000 squares, Qiyue Wuyi could totally use space for time and play guerilla warfare with Dragon War.

If you tear down one of my fortresses, I'll build another one elsewhere.

Qiyue Wuyi's people even formed various small teams and engaged in guerrilla warfare to attack the cities of some key personnel. Because the main forces were outside, the main city almost fell.

Although many of them were exhausted, they obviously couldn't slack off. After all, Qiyue Wuyi's people were fighting with all their might. Even if Dragon War wanted a truce, Qiyue Wuyi's people would not agree.

...

The two sides were in a stalemate, fighting from morning to night every day.

When would this Civil War end? A week or a month?

No one knew. It would only end when one of the Alliance Masters fell, or when all the Alliance members were tired, and the Alliance master was deserted.

...

The Civil War in Liang Province lasted for five days. During this time, civil wars broke out in other provinces.

During the internal war in Ji Prefecture, the number one alliance of Ji Prefecture, withering years, attacked first and gained the upper hand. The number two Alliance of Ji Prefecture fell in a single night. A small number of them submitted to the first Alliance, while the rest either surrendered or wandered to the Bing Prefecture. The Ji Prefecture was completely unified.

The three alliances of Bingzhou were united peacefully because there was only one major Alliance, the [godly might mansion]. The other two small alliances were not willing to have a civil war, so they merged into the [godly might mansion] and each got an official seat. At the same time, the Bing Province had also accepted some refugees from the internal war in the Ji Province.

Yangzhou's two major alliances were war spirit and Jin Xiu, and they were currently living in peace. It was said that the two alliances had already reached an agreement. One side would break through Xu Prefecture and the other would break through Jing Prefecture. They would each fight their own battles and not invade each other.

In addition, Jing Prefecture, Yi Prefecture, You Prefecture, Qing Prefecture, and Xu Prefecture all had one major Alliance, so there was no Civil War. They were all developing quietly.

Only Liangzhou was still in a fierce fight.

...

Zheng Hongxi had been fighting day and night for the past few days, and his head was dizzy.

The Alliance War was too tiring. They fought every day, day and night. When the main forces were exhausted, they would be pulled back to the main city to recruit soldiers, and when they were full, they would be pulled back to the front line to continue fighting.

Up till now, Dragon War had been winning one victory after another. Qiyue Wuyi's Alliance City and sub-cities were surrounded by the Army, and Dragon war's fortresses were everywhere.

After all, they had been fighting for so many days, and Qiyue Wuyi had been purely on the defensive. It wasn't easy for him to last this long.

It could be said that it was already a miracle that the People's hearts had not dispersed even now.

Zheng Hongxi had been valued by the Alliance master because of his heroic performance in the past few days, and he was pulled into a small group of only twenty people. This chat group was like a core group. Some highly confidential information was first discussed in this group before sending emails to inform the others.

The Jianping tu general: "attack at 10 O' clock tonight!" If you can't come due to the situation, send an email to ask for leave. I'll send an email to the group at 6 O' clock tonight for everyone to get ready. After being in a stalemate for so long, victory or defeat will be decided in one move. If we lose the alliance leader of Qiyue Wuyi, we can unify Liang Province!"

Everyone was very excited. After fighting for so long, they were finally going to get their revenge.

"Awesome! Tonight, we'll take down that Alliance master so that he won't dare to attack us again!"

"Fight, fight, fight! Even if we don't sleep today, we'll chase all the people of Qiyue Wuyi out of Liangzhou!"

"F * ck, a civil war has been going on for nearly a week. I'm f * cking drunk. I've been fighting every day during this period and I haven't developed at all. It's so hurtful."

"Me too. I can only hope that the Civil War is over so that I can take the time to rest and farm a few pieces of land."

"I hope the Civil War ends tonight and I can sleep in peace."

Zheng Hongxi was also very excited. After fighting for so long, he could finally have a good sleep. When Liangzhou was unified, he could have a good rest and obtain a few more pieces of land to replenish his resources.

As they were discussing, someone sent a screenshot: "Look at the two checkpoints at the border of Xu Prefecture, Mengyin and Huai an!"

Everyone was a little puzzled. What did Xu Prefecture's checkpoint have to do with them?

Zheng Hongxi looked at the map and was surprised to find that the two checkpoints in Xu Prefecture were surrounded by fortresses!

"What the f * ck? What's going on?"

"What do you mean? why did Qingzhou and Yangzhou both build fortresses?"

"Why do Xu Prefecture only have so many fortresses? You're not resisting?"

The people in the chat group were dumbfounded. Was a fight about to start?

Mengyin was the border checkpoint between Qingzhou and Xuyu, while Huaian was the border checkpoint between Yangzhou and Xuyu. Outside of these two checkpoints, Qingzhou and Yangzhou had already built a large number of fortresses, and it looked like they were ready to attack the city at any time!

Not only did the players of Liangzhou notice this, but the players of other states also noticed it.

In fact, the players in Liangzhou had only noticed the fortress groups because of the quarrel in the world Channel.

The world Channel was already filled with scolding, but the players from Qing and yang States did not say anything at all. It was only the players from Xu Prefecture who were scolding.

"Xu Zhou's Alliance leader Tian Shi is really good at scheming. Are you a dog from Qing Zhou or Yangzhou? How much was the entire state worth? Is it enough to buy coffins for your entire family?"

"It's obviously a dog from Qingzhou. Tian Shi said in the group that he wants all of Xuzhou to merge with Qingzhou. Hehehehehe!"

"An Alliance master who is ranked in the top 10 in the entire server actually sold the entire Alliance to Qing Yang without even resisting. Disgusting!"

"Trash that betrays the state for glory, I wish you to be killed by a car when you go out!"

After scrolling through the chat history in the world Channel for a long time, Zheng Hongxi finally understood what was going on.

Qingzhou and Yangzhou had built their fortresses at the two passes of Mengyin and Huaian at almost the same time. It was obvious that they wanted to break through the passes and invade Xuyu. However, the leader of Xu Prefecture did not intend to resist at all. Instead, he asked all the members to merge into Qingzhou.

It was obvious that Tian Shi had been a spy planted in Xu Prefecture by Qingzhou from the very beginning. They had worked so hard to establish an alliance to unify Xu Prefecture so that Qingzhou could easily swallow the entire Xu Prefecture!

It was also easy to understand why Yangzhou sent out their troops. They did it to split up Xuzhou.

If Yangzhou did not send troops, Qingzhou would swallow up the entire Xu Prefecture, and their strength would increase greatly. It was obvious that Yangzhou could not accept such a thing happening. Hence, they had broken through the first stage. Not only did they want to snatch resources, but they also wanted to take in the Xu Prefecture players who were not willing to go to Qingzhou.

No one had expected that the server's first state war would be launched in such a way!

Chapter 404: The end of the Civil War in Liangzhou

In the "leading land to shore", there were mountain ranges that separated the states, and different states could not be crossed directly. There would be a checkpoint at every set distance in the mountain range. If one wanted to go to other states, they would have to break through the checkpoint first.

The level of the checkpoints was relatively high and couldn't be cleared in the early stages. It required dozens of people from the Alliance and hundreds of troops to clear it. After that, they would be able to enter the neighboring state.

However, breaking through the pass also meant a declaration of war and an invasion, which would inevitably cause the other party's resistance. The two sides often had to fight for a long time near the pass.

However, if the Alliance master did not resist at all like Xu Prefecture, the progress of Qingzhou and Yangzhou would be very fast. They might even divide the entire Xu Prefecture within a few days.

...

That night, the final battle of Liangzhou's Civil War started at almost the same time as the battle between Qing and yang!

Qiyue Wuyi's Alliance leader saw that his main city and sub-cities were surrounded by the Dragon War fortress, and he could tell that the situation was not good. He chose to give up his position as Alliance leader in advance.

However, the abdication required 12 hours of preparation time. During this time, the players of Dragon War would attack Qiyue Wuyi's main city and sub-city at the same time!

In the first round of attack, Qiyue Wuyi's Alliance leader activated [defense] and successfully delayed for 5 hours.

The players of Dragon War directly recruited soldiers in the fortress. After the five hours were over, at 4:15 am, they would launch another attack!

...

This time, Qiyue Wuyi's Alliance leader couldn't escape even if he had wings. The main city and sub-cities fell at the same time. At the same time, all the members of Qiyue Wuyi's Alliance fell!

The Civil War in Liangzhou lasted for nearly a week, and the Dragon War finally won and unified Liangzhou.

The world Channel and Liangzhou channel were filled with heated discussions, but no one from Qiyue Wuyi's Alliance said anything. After all, the war of words had lasted from the beginning to the end of the Civil War, and everyone was tired of it.

Qiyue Wuyi had already guessed this outcome. After all, they were much weaker than Dragon War. A small number of players in the Alliance had already submitted to the Dragon War during the Civil War. After the fall of the alliance leader, some of them chose to surrender and start over, some chose to wander, and some chose to submit.

(Wandering can go to other states, but giving up all the land in the state and starting from scratch will be very harmful to the player, so most people will not choose to wander.)

At this point, the Civil War in Liangzhou finally ended. The Dragon War chat group was in a jubilant mood!

Everyone was exhausted. After nearly a week of fighting, many of the core players in the group had not had a good night's sleep for a long time. With the end of the Civil War, everyone could finally rest.

...

On the other side, the battles of Qingzhou and Yangzhou were almost carried out at the same time!

These two states had obviously sent out all their elites, and the neutral defenders at the checkpoints did not cause them much trouble at all. Just like the previous siege by the Dragon War, they successfully took down the city.

After taking down two border checkpoints, Qingzhou moved from north to south, and Yangzhou from south to north, paving the way to the nearest city in Xu Prefecture.

According to the regulations in "leading the land by the shore", the Alliance of Qingzhou could not accept Xu Prefecture members. They had to first occupy a city in Xu Prefecture before they could accept Xu Prefecture members.

Therefore, in order to accept the players from Xu Prefecture, Qingzhou and Yangzhou chose the small city closest to their side as their first strategic target.

On Xu Prefecture's side, because the alliance leader, heavenly erosion, was actually a spy from Qingzhou, this kind of betraying behavior was despised by most players, so the entire Alliance had split.

Within the Alliance, Tian Shi assured the members,"If they joined Qingzhou, they would be able to enter the resource state after Qingzhou broke into the resource state or even unified it. Furthermore, Qingzhou was powerful and had the ability to unify the resource state. They would be more valued if they joined earlier.

Obviously, these words were half true and half false. However, most of the people here were still novices and did not know much about the game's mechanics. Thus, more than half of the people believed heavenly eclipse's words and were prepared to not resist and accept his arrangements to join Qingzhou.

The others despised heavenly erosion's act of selling out the state. They had already left the Guild and entered the wilderness, waiting for Yangzhou to enter the pass and join them.

Qingzhou and Yangzhou had obviously taken Xu Prefecture as their top priority at the moment. They had specifically set up paving teams to spread the land throughout Xu Prefecture day and night. The faster the road was laid, the more territory they would be able to occupy.

Qingzhou and Yangzhou were both very powerful, but it was obvious that they would not start a war at this time, because it was meaningless. Next to Qingzhou was Ji Prefecture, and next to Yangzhou was Jing Prefecture. If Qing and yang were to go to war before the situation was clear, it was very likely to give the other prefectures an opportunity.

Therefore, the first state war in the entire server was very likely to end with Qing and yang splitting up Xuzhou, governing the land and not invading each other.

The first Prefecture battle could only be considered a one-sided battle, but it reminded the other prefectures that some of the more powerful prefectures could already break through and invade the other prefectures. Xuzhou was the first, but it was clear that it would not be the last.

...

After the Civil War ended, the players of Liangzhou entered a temporary state of rest and recuperation. Qiyue Wuyi had already left, so Dragon Wars needed to take over the players who left the Alliance and take back all the cities that Qiyue Wuyi had destroyed. They also had to deal with all sorts of disputes over land.

Moreover, everyone was already very tired and couldn't wait to have a good rest.

In the Dragon War chat group.

The peace conquering general: "for the next period of time, everyone should quickly replenish their development. Our Alliance members 'power points on the ranking list have clearly fallen behind the other states. After all, the internal war in Liang State has been going on for the longest time, and it's a bit of a blow to our bones."

"The one who is in charge of pulling in people should be Qiyue Wuyi's scattered players. We should poach the people from the small leagues. We are now the biggest Alliance in Liang Province. We have to quickly complete the unification and pull in all the players in Liang Province. Only then will we not be passive."

Someone asked,'Alliance master, Qing and yang have divided Xu Prefecture. Is the prefecture war about to start on a large scale? Will we be in danger?"

"The neighboring provinces are Bing Province and Yi Province. Bingzhou was not a threat. They had fewer players there, and it was a land of war. It was connected to Liangzhou, Jizhou, and Youzhou. It was impossible for them to take the initiative to invade Liangzhou. I've contacted the Alliance master in Yizhou, and he told me that Liangzhou isn't their target. So for the time being, we should be safe. "

"If Yizhou doesn't attack Liangzhou, does that mean they're going to attack Jingzhou?" someone asked.

"Or is it that they're not going to break through and just want to farm?"

General Jianping tu: "it's impossible to just focus on farming. There are several tycoons in Yizhou. It's impossible that they don't fight a state war." I think it's possible that Yizhou and Yangzhou will split Jingzhou, just like how they split Xuzhou. "

"In that case, our Liangzhou should be safe for now. "However, don't let your guard down. Everyone has seen Qing and Yang Pass through Xu Prefecture. It will only take a few hours. In the next few days, if you have nothing to do, take a look at the few checkpoints at the border between Liangzhou and Yizhou. If you find that Yizhou is building a fortress on a large scale, you must inform me at once."

Chapter 405: Chapter 404-the battle of Youbing

A day after Qing and yang entered Xu Prefecture, the second Prefecture war began.

The northernmost Youzhou had invaded Bingzhou and successfully broken through. They had pushed all the way South with irresistible force.

It was different from Qing and yang splitting Xu Prefecture. This time, when you Prefecture invaded Bing Prefecture, the Alliance master of Bing Prefecture did not sell out the prefecture and actively resisted.

The difference in strength was obvious.

Youzhou province was in the northernmost part of the entire map. All the other provinces neighbored with resource provinces, except for Youzhou province, which couldn't enter resource provinces directly. Zhang tie had to kill Bing Province or Ji Province first.

The so-called resource provinces referred to Yongzhou province, Yanzhou province, Yuzhou province and Sili Province. As the four provinces were rich in resources and all of them were high-level lands, they were called resource provinces.

There were a total of 13 states on the shore of Shuai tu. Nine states were for players to choose from, including Qing state, Xu state, yang state, and Jing state. Players could not choose four states, including Yong state and yan state, as their birthplace.

The nine states that players could choose were in the outermost circle. Further in was Yongzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and further in was sili. In other words, the players had to pass through many stages to enter the resource state before they could enjoy the rich resources inside.

Youzhou province couldn't directly enter resource province; additionally, it was neighboring Ji Province and Bingzhou province, the two weaker provinces. Therefore, this geographical location was the safest and most remote.

Many players jokingly called Youzhou the "farming state" for this reason.

...

However, the server's Youzhou was obviously not satisfied with farming. They wanted to Annex the other provinces first, then enter the resource provinces, and finally unify the world.

In this stage-breaking battle, all the players in the server watched the entire process. Zheng Hongxi also saw how well-trained the Alliance fought in the state war.

Youzhou's Alliance [Wei Wu Chunqiu, the leader was called Cao Mengde. His power was ranked sixth in the entire server, and he was most likely a local tycoon.

Youzhou's battle with Bingzhou also took place at midnight. At 3 am, the Bingzhou players found that Youzhou had built a fortress in front of the checkpoint and quickly informed their alliance members to defend it.

However, there was a time difference, and there were very few players in Bingzhou. There were no lands in front of the checkpoint occupied by the Alliance, and they had to pave the way temporarily. It was late at night again, and many players were already asleep. Although a few players had paved the way overnight, the other players had no time to build a fortress.

Finally, at Seveno' clock in the morning, Youzhou had taken down the checkpoint between Youzhou and Bingzhou,'flask pass', almost without any interference. Although most of the Bingzhou players had woken up, they were too far away to do anything.

Although the checkpoint had been broken, Bingzhou did not give up on resisting.

The defense of the neutral pass was very strong. After breaking through, Youzhou would need a period of rest and recruitment. The gamers of Youzhou immediately started recruiting soldiers in the fortress. They would come online at noon and attack Bingzhou.

The gamers of Bingzhou had arrived at the checkpoint. Many fortresses had been built. Although the number was less than in Youzhou, it was still a spectacular sight.

However, it would be impossible to take back the checkpoint at this time. There were high-level NPCs guarding the checkpoint, and the high-level Warriors in Youzhou could still be stationed there. With the strength of the Union province, there was no hope of attacking by force.

Therefore, the state of Bing could only mobilize all of its main forces and station them at the key land in front of the pass.

At 12:30 pm, Youzhou launched an attack.

A solitary red arrow pointed to the core area where the Bingzhou Army was stationed. There were 37 main forces there.

Bing province's Alliance, the [godly might Manor, was also nervously discussing countermeasures.

"There's only one person. He should be a Pathfinder. Don't worry."

Many people didn't pay much attention when they saw that Youzhou only sent one person over. It was common to send a Suicide Squad to Scout the way before a fight started. Everyone knew this. After the Suicide Squad scouted the formation of the garrison troops, it should be time to launch a general attack.

However, the moment this force crashed into the garrison, everyone was dumbfounded.

The red number 37 on the garrison instantly turned into 25, and they entered a state of continuous combat!

The [divine might Manor] chat group instantly exploded!

"What is it?"

"F * ck! This isn't a Suicide Squad, this is the main force!"

"A complete military governor! One-versus-twelve?"

"And he still has one-third of his forces left!"

"F * ck, look at the battle report. There's no chance at all!"

The Bingzhou players opened the battle report and found that there were 12 new battle records in the Alliance battle report. They were all created by the alliance leader of Wei wuchun Qiu, Cao Mengde.

Cao Mengde had indeed only sent a single unit over. This was a complete military governor's team! Lu Meng, Sun Quan, and Zhou Yu all had very high levels of combat techniques. Even though they were also the main forces of the Bingzhou players, they were completely helpless in front of this group of tycoons!

Just Cao Mengde alone had annihilated 12 of the garrison troops!

Cao Mengde's troops retreated. Following that, countless Red Arrows appeared on the Youzhou fortress opposite the checkpoint, pointing at the Bingzhou Garrison troops!

The Bingzhou players were already panicking. The difference in combat power between the two sides was clearly huge. How could they fight when the nouveau riche of the other side defeated all 12 of them?

The players of the divine might Manor were still rushing to the battlefield, and the new players had also stationed their troops on the land in front of the checkpoint, trying to stop the attack of Youzhou.

However, in the intense battle between the main forces, Bingzhou was quickly defeated.

Bingzhou didn't have any tycoons or high-level fighters, but Youzhou had at least two or three high-level fighters who could defeat ten players at the same time. In a battle at such a key location, Bingzhou's players couldn't resist at all.

The land in front of the pass had been claimed by Cao Mengde, the Alliance master of Youzhou, and he had started to build the fortress there.

Soon, the second piece, the third piece ...

The land of Bingzhou province in front of the pass was occupied one piece after another. The main force of Youzhou province was stationed on these pieces of land to build fortresses.

The players of Bingzhou tried to take back the land, but they couldn't get rid of the troops in Youzhou.

Soon, a large red patch of land appeared in front of Bingzhou's border. These were all lands of Youzhou. They had already passed the border and extended into the Bingzhou fortress cluster.

Bingzhou's fortress was also continuously being destroyed. Once the fortress was destroyed, the player's troops would automatically return to their main city. If they wanted to transfer more troops over, they would have to attack the ground and repair the fortress, which would take at least a few hours.

Under such a situation, Bing Province began to retreat in defeat. You Province continued to pave the way to Shang AI, the first city in Bing Province!

He sent an email to the alliance leader group, asking everyone to build fortresses around Shang AI and Xin Xing, as well as the second line of defense.

However, at this stage, the morale of the entire Union State Alliance was extremely low. Everyone was feeling lost. There was no way to fight this battle!

Chapter 406: Chapter 405-all involved in the war

The continuous state wars caused all the players in the server to panic. It was as if they were really in a chaotic world, with endless wars and endless attacks.

It was as if, overnight, the days of stable development and farming were gone, leaving only the continuous war.

Youzhou was unstoppable in Bingzhou, and the players of Bingzhou were unable to resist.

The Union Prefecture's Alliance master sought help from the Liang Prefecture and the Ji Prefecture, but the two prefectures were helpless.

This was because the Yi Prefecture was behind the Liang Prefecture, and the Qing Prefecture was behind the Ji Prefecture.

Yizhou, Qingzhou, and Yangzhou could be said to be the three strongest provinces in the server. It was difficult for Liang Province and Ji Province to protect themselves, so how could they spare people to help Bing Province?

While the Alliance master of Bing Prefecture was in despair, it was Qingzhou who expressed their willingness to help Bing Prefecture fight against Youzhou.

Although this was a good thing for Bingzhou, the problem was that Qingzhou and Bingzhou were not connected at all. There was still the Jizhou in between!

Qingzhou proposed to break through the pass through Jizhou to help Bingzhou fight against Youzhou. However, this meant that Qingzhou's military forces would have to cross the entire Jizhou and build countless fortresses in Jizhou.

Obviously, no matter how stupid the Alliance master of the Ji Prefecture was, he would not agree to such a request. He would not believe that the Qing Prefecture really wanted to help the Bing Prefecture.

...

After being rejected, Qingzhou directly built a fortress at the border of Qingzhou and heizhou[Guangzong]. It was called a land-borrowing, but it was actually an invasion.

The entire Ji Prefecture expressed that they would fight to the death against the invasion of Qing Prefecture. Both sides faced off in guang zong, and a war was about to break out.

On the same night, the players of the battle of the dragons found out that Yizhou was building a fortress at Yinping pass, which was the border between Liangzhou and Yizhou. This immediately alerted the entire battle of the dragons. It was obvious that Yizhou was going to do the same thing as Youzhou. They were going to break through the pass in the middle of the night and fight without any announcement.

The Dragon War chat group was in a mess, but everyone quickly calmed down. They immediately went to the two passes of Yinping and Yangping to build fortresses and prepare to resist the invasion of Yizhou.

In the chat group, many players of Dragon War were discussing it, and everyone felt a little desperate.

The Civil War had just ended, and there was no chance for them to catch their breath. Now, the regional war was coming?

"Alliance master, how's Yizhou's strength? can we defeat them?"

"Damn, there are quite a few tycoons in Yizhou. How do we fight them?"

"Didn't Yizhou say that their target wasn't Liangzhou? Why did he change his mind? Or are they lying to us?"

"Damn it, defend Yinping pass! Send them back to Yizhou!"

"Don't panic, everyone. Yizhou has been repairing the stronghold overnight. This battle is inevitable. " Fortunately, we have already paved the road in advance. Everyone, seize the time to build the fortress. Send the main force and the siege force over and prepare to seize the pass!"

Liangzhou's strategy was to build fortresses at Yinping and Yangping at the same time. Yinping was mainly for defense, and they would try to seize the pass. If Yinping failed, they would attack Yangping Pass to make sure that at least one of the two passes was in their hands.

After a long period of civil war, the situation in Liang Province was very chaotic. Although Qiyue Wuyi had taken over half of the people, there was still a small portion that had not been taken over. Some of the players from the smaller leagues were still scattered and not under command.

Moreover, after a long period of civil war, the players in Liangzhou were generally limited in their development. Their resources and general levels were obviously lower than those in Yizhou.

Obviously, Yizhou chose this time to invade Liangzhou, taking advantage of the fact that Liangzhou had just finished its internal strife, and that Liangzhou was not developing well, to break it up and take it in.

For Liangzhou, the only good news was that this group of players had the most fights in the entire server. They were very experienced, which was probably a blessing in the misfortune.

...

At Seveno' clock in the morning, Yizhou began to attack Yinping pass.

The players of Liangzhou who were online were waiting for the command to try to clear the stage.

Like a city, a checkpoint had guards and city defense points. After eliminating all the defenders, the city's defense would be reduced to 0, and the occupation would be successful. However, the rule in "leading the land" was that the checkpoint would belong to the ally that defeated the city's defense value when it dropped to 0.

This was the same logic as snatching the Baron in League of Legends. It didn't matter how much health they took, the key was the last hit.

This was a setting that players both loved and hated, but in general, this setting had its own reasons. It was because of this setting that in this kind of pass battle, the stronger side could obtain a great advantage, and the weaker side would not be completely helpless, at least there would be a glimmer of hope.

When Yizhou attacked Yinping pass and went to war with Liangzhou, Jingzhou also broke through Red Cliff and went to war with Yangzhou.

Yizhou and Jingzhou acted in unison. It was clear that this was a strategy that had been discussed long ago. It was very likely that Yizhou and Jingzhou had been on the same front from the very beginning.

At noon, the dust had settled for the two state wars.

Yizhou had successfully taken down Yinping pass.

After all, there was a difference in strength between the two sides. Yizhou had more people and stronger combat strength. In the last round, all the attacking forces arrived at the same time within a second, instantly destroying more than 1800 points of the city defense value of Yinping pass, which destroyed the hope of Liangzhou.

The situation at the Jing Yang battlefield surprised everyone. Jingzhou did not take down Red Cliff, but Yangzhou!

Yangzhou had two major alliances. The Jin Xiu group had always been in the battle of Xu Prefecture. They divided up Xu Prefecture while keeping an eye on Qingzhou's movements. The war spirit was in charge of resisting Jingzhou.

This Battle of Red Cliff was played perfectly by [fighting soul].

In front of Red Cliff pass, battle soul only arranged 30 people. Although the fortress was heavily built, most of them were empty.

However, these 30 people were all leading a siege force, and all of them were veterans. The commander of [battle soul] had told them countless times, so everyone knew what they had to do.

Just as Jingzhou was about to take down the red Cliff pass, these 30 attacking forces moved out and arrived at the same time. They directly took over the red Cliff pass.

This was easy to say, but very difficult to do. This was because the speed and distance of all the troops were different. If they wanted to arrive at the same time, everyone had to be highly focused, and they had to be very strong in carrying out their tasks.

However[war spirit] actually managed to take down Red Cliff!

This wasn't the end. The war spirit pretended to attack Red Cliff, but in reality, they were attacking the Xiakou border. While Jingzhou was attacking Red Cliff, the war spirit also gathered their main forces to attack the Xiakou border.

In the end, the two passes, Red Cliff and Xiakou, were both taken by Yangzhou!

Jingzhou was furious and wanted to take back red Cliff after resting, but war spirit sent a few of their experts to Red Cliff.

If Jingzhou wanted to break through, they had to do it the same way. They had to first attack the defending Army and then clear the city's defense.

However, now that Red Cliff belonged to Yangzhou, they were no longer neutral. Once they entered the siege stage, the Yangzhou's Gao Zhan would be stationed at the pass, and the Jingzhou siege troops would not be able to return. They would be eaten clean.

A few high-level battles didn't take much effort to defend Red Cliff. On the other hand, the main force of war spirit had already entered Jingzhou from Xiakou.

Within a day, the entire server's situation changed drastically, and all the states were involved in the war!

Chapter 407: The final

Zheng Hongxi had been playing for the past few days until he was dizzy. After entering the state war, he was even more tired than during the Civil War!

The Civil War of Liangzhou was just a war between two alliances, while the regional war was a war between two provinces. There were more people in the regional war, and the tactics were more complicated and fierce!

After Yinping pass was lost, Dragon War decided to give up on Yinping pass and attack Yangping Pass with all their might. They wanted to exchange passes with Yizhou.

Although they had taken down Yangping Pass, Yizhou did not seem to care at all. They were heading north from Yinping pass with all their might, clearly wanting to end the battle as soon as possible.

This move caught Liangzhou off guard. Yizhou's goal was to take down Liangzhou's two cities, linqiang and Xiping, as soon as possible. It would shake the morale of the players of Liangzhou, and then take them in.

Although Liang Province had taken down Yangping Pass, they had no choice but to defend it immediately. There were only 20 squares between Yinping pass and linqiang.

Liangzhou began to build a large number of fortresses around linqiang, forming three lines of defense. The different groups of fortresses could support each other and were ready for a long war.

Although they were well-prepared, they felt that their strength was not in their hearts, and it was hard to fight!

Yizhou had always been one of the strongest provinces, with six or seven local tyrants and a large number of participants. Liangzhou had been fighting a civil war for a long time, and everyone's development was not good. Although there were a few high-level players like Yun Shen, they could not stop Yizhou's attack at all.

Lin Qiang's Liangzhou fortress was slowly devoured, and Yi Prefecture also began to advance, preparing to attack Lin Qiang city.

...

...

At the critical moment, Zheng Hongxi's game suddenly popped up. Su Jinyu called.

Zheng Hongxi was dumbfounded. Why did su Jinyu call him?

Zheng Hongxi picked up the phone and said,"Hello?" What's wrong?"

"Where are you?" su Jinyu asked.

"In the hotel."

Su Jinyu[...Today's the S1 finals!]

"Ah?"

Su Jinyu: "hurry up! It's about to start!"

Zheng Hongxi hung up the phone and took a look. It was true, today was the final day of Season 1 of League of Legends!

After "leading the land" was released, Zheng Hongxi had been playing the game day and night for a few days. He had not paid attention to the date at all, and today was the final?

He didn't feel that time had passed so quickly at all!

After washing up and changing his clothes in a hurry, Zheng Hongxi took a taxi to the competition venue.

Fortunately, the hotel was very close to the competition venue, so they arrived very quickly. Fortunately, su Jinyu reminded them early, so they didn't miss the competition.

Zheng Hongxi jogged all the way to find a seat and sat down. He had not gone out to exercise for a few days and was panting heavily.

Chen Zhao looked at him."You're just in time. We're about to start."

Zheng Hongxi panted."Manager, it's all your new game's fault. This game ... Is toxic!!"

The competition had not officially started yet. Zheng Hongxi panted as he took out his phone and opened "leading the land" to continue playing.

They had no choice, the battle in linqiang city was still ongoing!

...

The final showdown of League of Legends's S1 World Finals was about to take place!

The Grand Finals this time could be said to be highly anticipated. The match between NRG and OST represented the highest level of professional competition in this world's "League of Legends". What kind of exciting match would these two teams present? Everyone was looking forward to it.

The up-and-coming team in the country, NRG, had performed very well throughout the entire finals. First, they were the first team to advance from the group stage. Then, they defeated the strong Korea team MAD in the quarter-finals, and defeated the strong European team vs G in the semi-finals. They had played against the top teams all the way, so it was not easy for them to enter the finals.

The NRG team had also gained a lot of fans during the world Finals, and they became the team with the most fans in League of Legends in the country.

Silver and Black, the mid-laner duo, also gained a lot of fame and became the two most popular professional players in League of Legends.

Meanwhile, after OST defeated IF, they also showed their powerful strength to the world. However, the team battle recording that was released after the game had lowered the image of the team in the hearts of the domestic audience to the lowest.

Although it was inevitable to be emotional when playing games, as a professional player, the nature of unscrupulously insulting the other player in the professional arena was completely different from private in-game abuse.

Even though these players had apologized under pressure from the officials, it was clear that no one believed that they were sincerely apologizing. This was because the bot jungler had said in private that this situation only happened because they didn't know that the microphone would be recorded. They could only admit that they were unlucky.

The entire domestic audience was looking forward to the NRG defeating the OST. Not only was it to keep the S1 championship trophy in China, but it was also to vent their anger and teach these arrogant guys a deep lesson!

After all, to every professional player, the runner-up position was not an honor, but a disgrace, because it meant that you were The Biggest Loser!

...

Before the match began, the big screen displayed a video clip.

In the darkness, the images of the heroes and the players gradually appeared. These images flashed through the camera, and finally converged into the huge logo of League of Legends.

Then, a blood-boiling BGM started playing!

Every single scene of the S1 World Championship was shown on the screen to the audience.

The stadium was full.

The audience cheered enthusiastically.

The pro players nervously tapped on their keyboards and mice.

The crystal exploded, and the match ended.

The winning contestant cheered towards the audience, shaking hands and high-fiving the audience.

In the lounge, the players gathered in a circle and cheered each other on.

The players were fiercely discussing tactics.

There were also exciting scenes of the team battle and the expressions of the professional players.

Some people were excited, some were excited, some were silent, and some were disappointed ...

Scenes flashed by quickly. The exciting scenes of the group stage, the quarter-finals, and the semi-finals were all cut in. Accompanied by passionate commentary, the wonderful performances of the sixteen teams were replayed one by one.

The mid-laner and jungler combination of the NRG was perfect.

IF's ADC, Luo Yongchang, Roy, had a four-kill limit.

It was a wonderful solo show by the bot mid-laner, Frost.

MAD's support, Muffy, roamed the entire field.

Highlights of Pure Icebird's wonderful killing of the vs G mid.

...

As the exciting scenes flashed by, the audience was reminded of the blood-boiling moments of the previous matches. The atmosphere in the stadium quickly heated up, and the audience couldn't help but cheer along with the video!

"NRG! NRG! NRG! NRG!..."

Finally, the camera stopped on the huge championship trophy.

Under the camera, the championship trophy glowed with silver light, symbolizing the highest honor of the world Finals.

And today, there would be a team that would raise him up and finally crown him as King!

Chapter 408: The start of the final

"Welcome to the first season of League of Legends World Finals, I'm the commentator memories."

"I'm the commentator, ke Zhen. "

Memories shouted to the audience,"Today is the final round. Everyone, tell me loudly. Are you happy?"

The audience also gave him face and replied loudly,""Happy!"

After the previous warm-up video, the popularity of the venue was already very high. The audience was looking forward to the final game of the Grand Finals. The two commentators 'enthusiasm was also transmitted to the audience, making them all excited.

"Now, let's welcome the two teams that are in the finals. They've both defeated strong opponents one after another to stand on the highest stage of League of Legends. Today, one of them will be the champion of the first season of League of Legends!"

"First of all, let us shout, N! R! G!"

Deafening applause and cheers immediately erupted in the stadium. Soon, all the voices were gathered together, shouting the name of the NRG team.

Under the loud shouts of the audience, the five members of the entire NRG team appeared on the stage and waved to the audience.

"Next up, another strong contender for the championship, OST!"

...

There was also some applause and cheers in the stadium, but it was far from being comparable to the NRG.

The audience who didn't like this team didn't boo or laugh. They only used silence to express their emotions.

Obviously, there were some in the audience who still maintained their good manners, but for a large portion of the audience, the verbal abuse incident before the match had already caused their image of the team to plummet. Clearly, they did not want to give any cheers to the team that had insulted IF.

In fact, many of the audience members had liked the OST team, especially their mid-laner Frost. Now that things had come to this, they could only say that they were embarrassing themselves.

The commentator obviously noticed the slightly awkward situation and quickly said,""Alright, contestants from both teams, please enter the stage. The audience, please give your applause and cheers to the two teams. The exciting match is about to begin!!"

This year's S1 World Championship was very simple, so there were no extra segments arranged on the day of the final. There was no theme song singing, music performance, cosplay performance, and so on. They went straight to the main topic.

However, for many of the audience members who were keen on the game, this was just right. After all, many people bought tickets to watch the finals to witness the birth of the championship, not to watch some strange song and dance performance.

The players were adjusting their equipment, while the two commentators were analyzing some key points of the match between the NRG and the OST, as well as predicting the score.

"I think the key to this match between the NRG and the OST is in the middle lane."

"Although the bottom lane of the NRG team is slightly weaker, they must have done some targeted training during this period of time. The bottom lane is definitely at a disadvantage, but it shouldn't be broken through."

"So, if NRG wants to win, the key is to see if the mid-laner duo, Silver and Black, can completely suppress Frost and tie him up in the middle."

"Especially Black, a jungler is a position that can create miracles. In fact, many of our previous misconceptions have been overturned in the finals. Nakano's role is far greater than we expected, so this time, NRG can be said to be the most promising team in the country to win the championship. "

After all, ke Zhen was still a professional player, and he was also the captain and commander of the team. He had a clear understanding of the key points of the match. After his comments, the audience's expectations for this match had reached a peak!

Memories pressed on her headset."Okay, the equipment of both teams has been adjusted. Next, let's watch a video. Let's see what the key player of the NRG, the jungler, Black, thinks of this match."

The big screen switched to the scene of the NRG jungler, Jiang Hao.

In front of the camera, Jiang Hao was still a little shy. He was obviously not used to this feeling.

"I think this is the best opportunity for our team. We also have the hopes of many of our brother teams on us. If we lose, we won't be able to find an excuse. We can only let this day become an eternal regret. So, we'll do our best to win this match. "

The crowd cheered again.

Indeed, what Jiang Hao said was right. In this Grand Finals, the Chinese team had the advantage of time, place, and people. The Chinese server opened early, had the most players, and had the home advantage. IF even sparred with them unreservedly before the game, they had done everything they could. If they still couldn't win the championship under such circumstances, they could only regret it for the rest of their lives!

Very quickly, the big screen cut to the match!

The battle between the two teams went on very quickly. It was clear that both teams had gone through a lot of training matches during this period and were very familiar with the current key heroes.

In the first round, both the NRG and the bot team had their eyes on the mid-Lane champion, and all six ban slots were given to the champion in the mid-Lane. As the blue team, NRG was the first to snatch, choosing Gragas over Death Song.

On the other hand, OST successfully obtained the death song and chose a Mumu, the team-fighting hero, to cooperate with.

The mid-laner of the NRG team chose the ice Phoenix, hoping to make up for some of their weaknesses in the team battle.

After the match started, tankard from the NRG team started to invade the champion's territory. The bot jungler, ah Mumu, was carefully farming the champion. However, this champion was still too weak before Level 6. Not only was he killed once, but his development also fell behind.

Every time a Mumu was killed, there would be a burst of cheers from the crowd, because this jungler was the one who had been insulted the most and the one who was the most unrepentant.

In the early stages, the NRG team had gained a certain advantage. However, in the crucial group battle against the Dragon, the spectacular OT had extended the frontline of the NRG team. Ah Mumu's entrance had instantly tilted the balance of the group battle. After death song's death, he had actually managed to obtain a triple kill with his ultimate skill!

After this team battle, Death Song was already difficult to stop. The gap between the two teams 'lineups in the team battle was obvious. In the end, the first round of the battle was won by the SOT.

After the loss of this match, the faces of the members of the NRG team were somewhat grave. However, they did not look too dejected. Instead, they were full of fighting spirit.

The live audience was also cheering loudly, shouting and cheering for them.

In the audience.

Li jingsi looked at the big screen."This is bad. Please don't let this affect the mentality of the NRG team members."

Chen Mo said as he watched the livestream,""It doesn't matter. The mid-laner of the NRG team is famous for being a big-hearted player. He managed to survive the previous match with MAD's BO5. Also, I think the chances of winning for the NRG are higher. "

Chapter 409: Chapter 408-one chasing three?

"Why?" li jingsi asked.

Chen Mo explained,"pro teams now generally value team battles. It's obvious from the fact that OST even used Amumu as a suicide song." "To put it bluntly, the OT strategy is still the same old way, but the NRG is already trying a new strategy."

"Gragas is a champion that is very suitable for invading the jungle. The black of the NRG is also very good, but their mistake is that they didn't follow this idea and chose the average Icebird in the middle lane."

"For this round, Kassadin and Orianna, the two champions who are the best at snowballing as junglers, have been banned. However, you can still choose Annie, Carter, or even vampire for the NRG. I can only say that they lost this match because they were too conservative. "

"I think that in the next round, the NRG will probably realize this mistake, and they will definitely come up with more tricks."

Even though he was there, Chen Mo still used his phone to watch the live broadcast of the finals.

What touched Chen Mo was that after the loss of the first game, no one typed GG or brainlessly cursed, all of them were "good luck, NPC".

With so many cheers floating by, it made people feel that the domestic audience really supported this team from the bottom of their hearts.

In the second match, both teams had swapped their blue and red. However, in terms of lineup selection, both teams were still targeting their mid-laner Champions. In fact, the bot team had even banned Gragas, who had performed outstandingly in Black's previous match.

In the midst of the "ban deathsong" calls, the NPC ignored them and continued to play it.

...

However, this time, the SOT did not choose to do so. Instead, they directly locked onto the top-laner Jax.

On the other hand, the NRG team had gotten Shenhe and deathsong, while the jungler and support had replaced mundo and sona, bringing out an almost impeccable lineup.

Clearly, both sides had switched playstyles. So had also tried to gain an advantage in the semi-finals, using the relatively new 4 – 1 split push strategy. On the other hand, NRG had seen through their intentions at the first moment and had chosen Shen as their target.

Because of the lineup, both sides did not find a good opportunity in the early stages and could only develop steadily. Although the early stages of the game were a disadvantage for the NRG's third-string players, they still managed to stabilize their situation.

After nearly 18 minutes, a battle broke out at the top and bottom lanes of both sides!

After Silver's deathsong used his ulti to help the bottom lane kill Zyra, he rushed to the top lane and stopped the three-man team of mid-laner and upper-laner who were trying to get Shen through the tower.

After Shen gave the big move, Death song's combat power was off the charts. In addition, mundo, who had opened the big move, had been clingy all this time. They actually successfully exchanged a 0 for 3, and the situation on the field was reversed in an instant!

Although the bot team was also trying to use their points to tie down the enemy, it was difficult for Jax to do anything in front of the well-developed Shen. In the end, by relying on their stronger team strength, the NRG team successfully regained one point!

Silver's death Song played a crucial role as well. His participation rate with Black's mundo was 83%, which could be said to be a true mid-laner reviving the entire game.

In the third match, the NRG team returned to the blue team.

This time, OST did not dare to play the death song. After the first two matches, everyone could tell that Silver and Frost were extremely familiar with the death song. Whoever got it would be able to dominate the competition.

However, in a situation where there were only three ban slots, the bot had no choice but to release Orianna in order to ban deathsong. Without any hesitation, the NRG immediately locked her down.

This time, OST had chosen a more team-oriented lineup, while NRG had brought out Orianna, Lee Sin, and Jax, the ultimate violent top-laner and jungler. It was clear that they wanted to crush bot during their development period.

The bot was obviously still farming and waiting for the team battle, but the NRG did not give them any chance at all. In the early game, blind, along with Jax and Orianna, madly invaded the jungle, forcing the bot's jungler, Scorpion, to run around. In the small-scale team battle that followed, Jax's jump, stun, and Orianna's ulti caused even more damage to the seemingly fragile lineup of the bot.

In front of these three, the bot champion was like a piece of paper. In the middle of the match, a snowball had already begun to roll. The NRG team had won the match without any suspense.

After securing the match point, the NRG was only one step away from the S1 World Championship trophy!

In these three games, the two commentators had shouted until they were almost exhausted, but they were also very excited. To be able to witness the domestic team win the championship at this time, whether it was for the audience or the commentators, it was a great honor!

...

The fourth round began. For the OT team, they were already standing on the edge of the cliff. Everyone's expression was very serious.

They entered the back-up segment again.

After the first few rounds, everyone had realized the importance of the game. The most crucial fourth round would depend on the lineup of both sides!

There were too many Champions that were difficult to deal with on both sides. Three ban slots were not enough, especially for an bot. They had to make a decision.

In the end, bot didn't choose to ban Mo Ling, nor did they choose to snatch her first. Instead, they chose a lineup that could be said to be an unconventional one: Jess, nightmare, lacus, Ezreal, Lulu.

Seeing this lineup, the vast majority of the audience and the two commentators were a little dumbfounded because this lineup had never appeared on the stage of the world Finals.

However, Chen Mo could clearly feel the intentions of the OT. The POKE stream.

This style had been all the rage in his previous life, but no party had ever brought it out in parallel world. The so-called POKE was to use long-range skills to consume the enemy's health and establish a huge health advantage before the start of the team battle. From there, they could snatch the map resources and snowball.

Clearly, in this life-and-death battle, the bot could only use their trump card. As long as this lineup could develop, it would definitely cause great trouble for the NRG.

No one knew if the NRG team had seen through their opponent's intentions. The lineup they had chosen this time was similar to the previous game, with Orianna as the core. The only difference was that after the top-laner Jax was banned, they had chosen Shen, who was easier to support.

In the wild cheers of the audience, the curtain of this crucial battle had been raised!

Not only was the five players of the OT very unconventional in their lineup, but they also very aggressively chose a level one team invasion. After Jayce accelerated everyone in the acceleration gate, he carefully detoured into the red buff area of the NRG to ambush.

Because of this bot formation, Lux, Lulu, and Incubus all had crowd control skills, while Jess and Ezreal could make up for the damage. Once an NRG jungler entered the jungle, it was highly likely that he would be killed by the five of them.

However, the NRG had already placed a Ward in the jungle area of their red buff, and the movements of the five players from the bot were clearly seen.

The five players of the OT were lying in ambush in the bushes between the red buff and the middle lane, while the NRG was also standing under a turret in the middle lane to block their vision. Both sides were very close to each other, but the NRG knew the location of the bot, while the bot did not know where the NRG was.

"The wards of the NRG are very important! Clearly, the NRG knew that the OT had not left and was still waiting! They're waiting for the OT players to return to the city, then they'll go and catch the people who are left alone!"

"Can we succeed? There was no one in the OT, but someone had already returned to the city! The NRG is currently booking a place, let's see if we can book a person who is alone!"

The two commentators were also excited. In the entire world Finals, a level one fight was very rare, and a level one fight that completely understood the opponent's intentions and completely relied on numbers to fight against the opponent was even more unprecedented!

Chapter 410: Witnessing history, creating history

The SOT-Lane duo from SOT had already returned to base. The top-laner and jungler were also preparing to get the red buff. The mid-laner, Lux, was preparing to go back to the lane. However, just as he was going back down, the five players from the NRG team suddenly appeared from their blind SOT!

Frost's reaction was very fast. As soon as he saw the players, he flashed and pulled away. Then, he turned around and used his Q-skill to trap the two players, and escaped to the top lane.

Although Lux had run away, the bot jungler, shapeshifter, was still in the jungle. The five players of the NRG immediately split up and surrounded him. Shapeshifter ran in the direction of the NRG base in a panic and was caught up very quickly. Orianna took first blood.

After taking first blood, the top jungler of the NRG team immediately entered the jungle area of the bot's Blue buff and snatched away the blue buff.

This opening was a dream-like opening for the NRG team. The main point was that the mid-laner had taken off. For the OT team, nightmare had basically collapsed and Lux had used her flash. They had to be more careful in the lane because Black loved to grab the mid-laner.

The loss of the first-level team fight had caused the bot lineup to be at a huge disadvantage in the early stages. This was because the key to the POKE flow was to obtain the gold lead in the early stages. Otherwise, long-range consumption skills would be like tickles to the opponent. How could they fight this team fight?

Both sides developed steadily in the early stages, and the economic advantage of the NRG was maintained.

In the middle lane, Frost was still steady but fierce, and the long-handed Lux only needed to seize the opportunity to exhaust Orianna.

After another Q-skill reached Orianna, Lux decisively used her ultimate skill. At the same time, the light of the bot's Incubus was switched off, and she wanted to kill Orianna and take the middle turret!

However, at this time, both teams were rushing over. Shen of the NRG team immediately cast a big move on Orianna. This time, it became a 10-man melee. Although the players of the SOT team were playing well, the NRG team had the lead in gold and their lineup was more suitable for team battles. After continuous dragging, the NRG team successfully got a 0 for 3 and continued to expand their advantage.

...

After a continuous snowball effect, the gold advantage of the NRG team had reached four thousand. In the crucial team battle at the Baron pit, although the OT had first taken out the support of the NRG team, the NRG team had decisively chosen a 4v5. Orianna's perfect ulti pulled the three of them together, and in the end, it was a 1 for 3 trade, and they had successfully taken the Baron pit.

In the end, the NRG relied on their huge economic advantage to break through the three lanes of the OT and finally arrived in front of the OT's crystal hub!

As the battle progressed, the live commentators were also excited. The audience even gave a round of enthusiastic applause and cheers!

"Jayce is down!"

"The Two Towers in the crystal hub are about to be demolished!"

"Right now, only Lux from Frsot is still trying to hold on, but it's useless. She can't clear out the Super minions!"

"The five players of the NRG are dismantling the crystal, they've won! He won! The champion of the NRG world!"

"Congratulations to the NRG, and also to every member of the audience. We have witnessed history!!"

"N! R! G! The world! Jie! Crown! Army!"

In the thunderous applause and cheers of the entire Stadium, the five members of the NRG team had already jumped up from their seats in excitement and hugged each other wildly.

The audience in the arena even shouted spontaneously,""NRG! NRG! NRG! NRG!..."

The entire stadium's lighting became incomparably gorgeous, and the stadium also rang out with an exciting victory Warsong. On the big screen, the five heads of the champion team, NRG, were displayed.

The camera panned to the seats of the NPG players. The five players hugged each other excitedly and waved to the audience, enjoying the applause and cheers of the audience.

The SOT members were still seated in their chairs, each of them wearing an extremely dejected expression. They were indeed only one step away from the summoner's trophy, but the NRG had become an insurmountable moat.

The five members of the NRG team came to the side of the OST position, and the members on both sides shook hands in turn. Although the smell of gunpowder between the two teams was very strong before the game, the members of the two teams were very polite and showed a very good demeanor.

To the NRG, after defeating the OT in a direct confrontation and becoming the world champion, all grudges could be written off. Only the winner had the right to be lenient.

In the midst of the passionate battle song and the cheers of the audience, the five members of the NRG rushed onto the stage.

Jiang Hao tried to lift the shiny silver Summoner's trophy, but it didn't move at all.

Fortunately, his four team members immediately surrounded him and the five of them raised the summoner's trophy together!

"Summoners of League of Legends, let's cheer together for the world champion of League of Legends 'first season's world Finals, Northen gaming!!"

Whether it was in the stadium or on the major live broadcast websites, the popularity of the cup-holding event had reached its peak!

"The NRG is awesome! The championship!"

"Hahaha, the champion will be staying in China!"

"Cool! He's one against three, and he's beating out OST. This championship title is well-deserved!"

"The five of them are all good!"

"The atmosphere at the venue is exploding! It's a pity he wasn't there!"

"Huh, isn't that Chen Zhao? Chen Mo is on stage!"

"Ah, Chen Mo! Wow, these five young men have cards! Chen Mo personally congratulated and interviewed me?"

"I knew it. I was wondering why Chen Zhao hasn't shown himself yet. So they were waiting for the finale to appear!"

The heat in the stadium had reached its peak, and Chen Mo's appearance on stage was no different from adding another fire to the already boiling crowd!

This time, Chen Mo wore a more formal outfit. He was already waiting backstage when the NRG team had the upper hand in the fourth round. After the NRG team won, Chen Mo went on stage and instantly became the focus of the audience.

"Thank you so much for the victory that the NRG has brought us. I believe that all the summoners here should be as happy and glorious as I am. Everyone, let's give the loudest cheer again, okay?"

The audience once again let out deafening cheers. It didn't matter how many times they cheered in this situation. The World Championship was a Supreme honor for all the domestic audience and players!

Chen Zhao went to the front of the stage and high-fived his five teammates.

The five young men looked at Chen Mo, the designer of League of Legends, with curiosity.

To Chen Mo, it was a great honor to see a Chinese team win the S1 Championship. At least he could make up for the regrets from his previous life.

Moreover, this championship was fought for by the five of them. Chen Mo didn't reveal any tactics or strategies to them, nor did he give them any special treatment. They deserved it.

As the designer of League of Legends and the host of the World Championship, Chen Mo came to the stage and gave a summary of the championship.

All the cameras were focused on Chen Zhao.

"I am very grateful to all the professional teams and all the summoners for their full support in the world Finals. It can be said that you are the witnesses of history and also the creators of history. This history will become incomplete without any of you here. "

"For the finals, we've invited the world's top 16 teams. In the long journey of more than a month, all the teams have shown us their top skills and also showed us the most wonderful side of League of Legends."

"Today, these two strongest teams have dedicated a dream-like showdown to us!"

"Today, the NRG battleteam will be crowned as the king!!"

Chen Mo paused and waited for the cheers to die down before he continued,""Just now, I just received the real-time data. The number of people watching the final has reached 8.37 million. This number has already created history."

"At the same time as winning the NRG trophy, the prize pool for this competition has also been finalized. During the world Finals, we sold a total of 540000 riven skins. Half of the profits, which is 27 million, will be used as the champion prize money!"

"In other words, the champion team will receive a prize of 47 million Yuan!!"

"Let's cheer together for this unprecedented e-sports event. The glory belongs to every Summoner in League of Legends!!"

Chapter 411: After the Grand Finals

In the stadium for the S1 World Finals, the applause and cheers lasted for a long time.

Even though the audience did not directly participate in the S1 World Championship, as players of League of Legends, it was a great honor for the tournament to gain so much attention and influence.

"League of Legends S1 international Grand Final has come to an end," Chen Mo announced loudly."Everyone, let's meet again in S2!!"

The crowd erupted into raucous applause and cheers again, and many of the audience members were even shouting.

"Goodbye, S2! Next year's champion has to stay!"

"Go, NRG!!"

"Chen Mo is awesome!"

"Little Blackie, smile at the camera!"

Chen Mo left the stage amidst the audience's cheers, leaving this glorious moment to his five teammates.

At this point, the S1 World Championship of League of Legends came to a perfect end!

...

...

After the game, all the players were still immersed in the excitement of winning the S1 finals. It was foreseeable that this had become a wild celebration for all players of League of Legends, and the popularity of the finals would take at least one or two months to subside.

The brief interlude in the S1 finals had sparked a heated discussion among the players.

For example, in a post-match interview with the NRG jungler, Jiang Hao, the reporter asked him what his first feeling was after winning the championship. Jiang Hao actually said,""The trophy is too heavy!"

Many netizens checked and found out that the trophy this time was actually 30 kilograms. It was no wonder that Jiang Hao felt that it was heavy. It was difficult for five people to lift it!

There were also enthusiastic netizens who discovered a small detail when the NRG was holding the cup. Jiang Hao was the first to rush to the side of the trophy to hold it, but after lifting it a little, the trophy did not move at all!

Fortunately, the other team members quickly came over and raised the trophy together, so this scene was not noticed by many people.

However, this small detail was still discovered by enthusiastic netizens and caused a heated discussion on the internet.

"Hahaha, Jiang Hao is so cute. His first reaction when he wins the championship is that the trophy is too heavy?"

"Yeah, the trophy is really impressive this time. 30kg? It's no wonder little black can't lift it. With his small body, wouldn't he hurt his waist if he really lifted it?"

"Didn't you see how careful the five of them were when they held the cups? If it hits the ground, the trophy might not even look good, and the stage might even have a hole in it!"

"Amazing, I can only say that this year's S1 Grand Final is indeed impressive. I'm only impressed by Chen Mo when it comes to acting cool!"

"Chen Mo: I'm not targeting anyone. I'm just saying that when it comes to acting cool, none of you are as good as me!"

"The domestic team won the championship, I'm satisfied! Let's go for a spin!"

...

On various forums, there were more and more posts about the championship of the NRG. A large number of League of Legends players were discussing the newly crowned King team, discussing their latest tactics and signature heroes in the finals.

On the various live streaming platforms, the S1 Grand Finals 'special live stream was still being kept, replaying the process of the NRG winning the championship. There were still hundreds of thousands of viewers watching every day.

On various video websites, all kinds of videos and information about the championship of the NRG were exposed, and they were very popular. Even the daily training, SOLO, and meal scenes of the NRG in the base were all talked about by the players.

The popularity of this competition was far higher and more lasting than anyone could imagine.

Many players all expressed that they hadn't seen enough, they wanted to see more!

As a competitive game, League of Legends had a lot of spectators. For some players, watching the game was even more fun than playing the game themselves.

For example, some of the more difficult Champions, such as Icebird and riven, players couldn't play them at all. However, in a competition, professional players could use them to kill everyone and play with extremely exquisite control.

Many players would feel a sense of immersion when they saw the team or player they supported. They would also feel a strong sense of satisfaction after winning the game.

As such, many players were saying that it would be great if the Grand Finals were held every month!

Of course, some players quickly retorted,"there's a finals every month? It was unrealistic in all aspects. Moreover, if there was one every month, then he would not be so excited.

However, once a year was indeed too long. Players were still looking forward to more small competitions in China and continue to see their favorite teams and players.

Their wish was soon realized.

After the finals, Chen Mo made two big announcements.

"To celebrate the champion of the NRG, the skins of all the heroes who have been used in the final will be on sale for a week. They will be sold at a 50% discount from their original price. At the same time, all Summoners will receive double gold coins and double experience in this week. In addition, the officials will be creating a champion skin for the NRG. "

"In addition, all the major divisions will start to form League of Legends professional leagues. "Currently, there are four major divisions: the domestic division LPL, the North American Division lol NA, the European division lol EU, and the Korea division lol. We will be working together with local e-sports organizations to build a long-lasting competition system. Starting from S2, the competition in the major divisions will be the only channel for the global Finals."

At the same time, the official website of League of Legends also began to release some details about the league, including the information of the participating teams, the schedule, the rules of promotion and relegation, the spots for the world competition, and so on.

Moreover, a lot of the audience had realized that the LPL would officially start at the beginning of next year, and it would be held at the Grand Finals venue, Shanghai's big square.

"I just said that I haven't seen enough and now you're here for the league?"

"Awesome, there'll be a competition in a few months, and it's a league. Will it be a seamless match for next year's s2 World Championship?"

"Amazing! Chen Mo planned all of this, a set of combination punches?"

"Wow, as long as it's a champion that has been used in the NPC, all the skins are half price? F * ck, why did Chen Zhao suddenly have a conscience?"

"The one above, you're really naive ..."

"But I'm more concerned about the champion skins of the NRG. I wonder what kind of skins Chen Mo will make for the five Guys."

"Yeah, the champion's skin is so good! When the time comes, we'll have five people in the game and everyone will use their own skin. This posturing is simply destructive!"

"My wallet can't wait! As long as the NPC exclusive skin is done well, we'll buy it no matter what!"

"Yeah, it's a domestic team after all. We have to support them!"

After the World Championship, the popularity of League of Legends had been rising. Even the number of active players and the number of players paying for the game had increased significantly.

The S1 finals itself was the most effective publicity. Whether it was the venue, the trophy, the participating teams, the number of spectators, or the prize pool for the record-breaking, all of it showed the players that League of Legends was a game that was constantly developing and improving. It was very likely that it would become the most popular competitive game in the world.

This also attracted more players to join League of Legends.

Chapter 412: The champion skin

At the NRG Esports Club.

Chen Mo and Zhou Hanyu were chatting with the five members of the NRG team.

The NRG club was located in Shanghai. Although it was a little remote, it was still acceptable. This time, the boss of the NRG club personally welcomed Chen Mo and treated him with great importance.

As an up-and-coming Esports Club, the foundation of the NRG was much weaker than the other established clubs. The reason for its name and the creation of the Warcraft and League of Legends divisions was because the boss himself preferred Chen Mo's games.

What the owner of the NRG didn't expect was that he made the right bet in investing in League of Legends, and he really got a big bargain.

After winning the NRG Championship, the five young men instantly turned from five unknown internet-addicted teenagers to the focus of all League of Legends players. Not only did they have a large number of fans in China, but they also had a lot of supporters overseas.

And these five people were all regarded as the five strongest positions in the world. Their "status" in the game instantly rose. In a ranking competition, four teammates and five opponents would fight to take a photo with them.

At the same time, these young men had also won a huge sum of money. The S1 championship prize money had reached 47 million. According to common sense, this money had to be deducted first before being split with the club.

However, the boss of the NRG did not only refuse to take a single cent from the club, but also paid for the tax deduction. This 47 million bonus was directly distributed to the five members, and each of them received a huge bonus of 9.4 million.

Of course, for the NRG club, the attention received by this world Championship was immeasurable. It was conceivable that all kinds of sponsorships would come in succession soon, and it would also have a huge fan base.

...

What's more, the boss of the NRG did not care about the money. What he wanted was results and attention. If the club he had set up won the championship, it would be a very important topic to talk about when he ate with his friends in the future.

From an unknown internet-addicted teenager who played games in an internet café to a multi-millionaire and a world champion, the five players could be said to have gained both fame and fortune.

To Chen Zhao, this was nothing. The reason why the prize pool for the S1 finals was set so high was to show it to all players and professional players. It was similar to "buying a horse's bones with a thousand gold" in nature, to attract more players to walk the path of "professional players."

However, for these five young men, it was hard to say whether such a high level of attention, such a large amount of wealth, and so much honor was good or bad.

He hoped that they would hold on to their hearts and not let the temporary glory get to their heads.

Of course, Chen Mo couldn't care less about that. He was here for the champion skin.

Chen Mo and Zhou Hanyu met the five of them in the meeting room after rejecting the invitation to dinner and Tour Shanghai from the NRG boss.

The five of them were still immersed in the joy of winning the championship, and were even more overjoyed when they heard that Chen Mo was going to make champion skins for them.

Everyone took their seats in the meeting room.

Chen Mo looked at the five of them,'I'm sure everyone knows why I'm here, it's about the champion skin. There are three main points to consider when making a champion's skin. The first is the style of the team, the second is the player's personal preference, and the third is overall coordination. "

"Is everyone satisfied with the NRG team uniform?"

The five of them looked at each other and nodded."Yes, I'm satisfied,"

Jiang Hao added,"I just feel that there are too few patterns."

Chen Mo smiled."It's fine. We can fix the pattern. The main thing is that the champion's skin has to be the same color as the NRG uniform."

The NRG team uniform was a pure black one with ice patterns on it. Overall, it was deep and cold. Of course, this was related to the personal preferences of the NRG boss.

From the name of the team, it could be seen that the boss had a certain preference for Arthas. Therefore, the team uniform was pure black with some ice patterns. It was basically based on the feeling of the ice throne and death Knight.

Chen Zhao continued,"okay, then let's set the color tone to black. Then, let's talk about our preferences. First, which hero do you want? It's best if it's something you're best at. "

It was obvious that the five of them were well prepared. They basically said the heroes they wanted without much hesitation.

"I want the blind monk skin," Jiang Hao said.

Silver, who was playing mid, said,""Hmm ... Orianna,"

Top, ADC, and support were Shen, Vayne, and sona.

These Champions were all currently popular Champions, and were also the best champions of the five members of the NRG team. Their characteristics were very distinct.

"Alright," he said. Chen Mo asked as he wrote it down,"are there any special requirements? For example, what kind of recall action do you want, special effects, and so on?"

The five of them were a little reserved at the beginning, but they quickly became lively and spoke freely.

"I hope that when Lee Sin returns to the city, he can do a handstand."

"Orianna, can you make that ball silver? Black skin with a silver ball, he would look very handsome. Oh, but don't make it too obvious, or else it'll be hard to hide the ball in the future. "

"Can Shen's two weapons be made into gold? Yes, and then make it a little bigger. Or, why don't you just use two championship trophies to beat someone up?"

"Sona, can you show more of your chest?"

...

Chen Mo and Zhou Hanyu wrote down all the requests of the five members. They wouldn't fulfill all of them, but they would be used as a reference.

After all, these five people were the owners of the skin. He had to take their opinions into account as much as possible while ensuring the artistic and beautiful degree of the skin.

After this, Chen Zhao was ready to return to the imperial capital. On the way back, Chen Mo and Zhou Hanyu started designing champion skins for the five players of the NRG.

Chen Mo's original art skills were already quite high. Two hours later, the first draft for the champion skin was ready.

This time, the five heroes were mainly black in color. At the same time, many ice patterns were added, making their styles more rich.

In the middle of the art was Orianna, who was holding a silver ball of light. On the bottom left was the eye-catching blind monk, who was wearing sunglasses and moving elegantly. On the bottom right was Shen, who was wearing a black suit and holding two gold trophies. On the top left was Vayne, who was holding a silver crossbow. On the top right was sona, who was wearing headphones and playing the dark music.

At the same time, Chen Mo and Zhou Hanyu also discussed the movements and special effects of the skins.

As per Jiang Hao's request, Lee Sin's return trip would be a handstand with one finger.

When Orianna used her W-skill and ultimate, the silver ball would be surrounded by an NPC's logo.

Sona's ultimate skill would be a huge ice pattern, which would look very cool.

Zhou Hanyu had recorded all of these requests. He would take them all into consideration when he went back to create the skin model, actions, and special effects.

Chapter 413: Chen Mo is going to lose in in-game purchases?

Not long after Chen Zhao returned to the imperial capital, all sorts of phone calls came.

Most of the calls were from club owners or managers, who all wanted to get a spot in the LPL. After knowing that there were no more spots left, they asked if there were any more.

Chen Mo could only tell them that they could apply to form a team, and there would be professionals to evaluate the club's status and the team's strength. As long as they met the requirements, they would be able to get a spot in the LKL. It was a first come, first served basis.

Many clubs suggested that there should be a 'convenient channel', but Chen Mo rejected them all.

There was no other way. Many clubs still went through the process obediently.

Chen Mo wasn't that stuck on the LPL quota. As long as the club met the requirements and the team was strong enough, they would pass.

Very quickly, the quota for LPL was also filled up!

Many of the club bosses who had been observing were dumbfounded. What was going on? There's no place in the First Division?

It was only then that they felt a little panicked, because the popularity of League of Legends was far beyond their imagination, but it was too late for them to enter the scene.

There were clubs who wanted to buy it, but the other clubs were not selling it at all! Even if there were two or three clubs that had gotten the LKL slots, the price they offered was very high, one million!

...

The bosses who didn't get a spot were speechless. One million? why didn't they just go and Rob?

When they thought about how the free spots they had previously taken were now being sold for 1 million, these bosses were all gnashing their teeth in hatred and cursing these clubs for being unscrupulous merchants.

Most of the clubs didn't have the courage to do so. One million was not a small sum. It was enough to maintain the entire club for a long time. Now, they were just buying a spot? Wasn't this the same as raising the price from the ground!

Many club bosses decided not to buy it in a fit of anger and no longer set up a League of Legends branch.

However, they would soon find out that this would be one of the things they would regret the most in the next few years, because the current price was really not expensive.

...

After League of Legends 'first season finals, the domestic esports scene welcomed a wave of enthusiasm.

All the major clubs had increased their investment to unearth high-scoring players to compete for the LPL and LPL spots.

All sorts of sponsorships came one after another, mouse, keyboard, headphones, motherboard, esports chair ...

The players 'salaries had also increased, and professional players had become bright and beautiful in the eyes of many people.

Putting aside the impact of the influx of hot money on the overall environment, at least Chen Zhao had achieved his goal.

With the huge gimmick of the S1 finals of League of Legends, the influence of League of Legends was no longer limited to the game itself, but spread to a larger group of people through multiple influences.

As the dominating game in his previous life, League of Legends developed well in this world. It even started off more smoothly than in his previous life. After all, fist Inc. Was just a small company when it first started, but Chen Mo had already gained a lot of popularity when he launched League of Legends, so it was a completely different story.

According to the statistics of the S1 finals, League of Legends's statistics in the parallel world were basically the same as S2 in his previous life. Although its influence in overseas regions was still relatively weak, League of Legends had undoubtedly occupied a dominant position on the PC side in China.

At this point, the start of League of Legends had finally come to an end for Chen Mo. The general trend had been set, and all he had to do was to follow the prescribed order and League of Legends would reach the peak just like in his previous life.

...

...

The recruitment for the Three Kingdoms game continued.

ZEN Entertainment's heroes of the Three Kingdoms had already entered the top three of the best-selling mobile game leaderboard. With the overwhelming publicity, the Three Kingdoms game that had created a new way of playing card games still attracted a large number of players.

Moreover, the style of the game was a huge gimmick. Many mobile game players said that they didn't want it, but their bodies were very honest. They had a lot of fun drawing cards in "the heroes of the Three Kingdoms."

As for "leading the land", it was hovering around the tenth place on the official best selling leaderboard.

Of course, many players played the game on Thunderbolt gaming platform, and the best selling leaderboard didn't represent the game's profits.

However, the heroes of the Three Kingdoms was also released on Emperor dynasty gaming platform and fantasy gaming platform at the same time, so it also had other sources of income.

In other words, from the official rankings,"the heroes of the Three Kingdoms" had undoubtedly suppressed "the land of the guide" in terms of income.

To most mobile game designers, this was surprising news. Chen Mo, the pioneer of pay-to-win mobile games, had lost?

"What's going on? the heroes of the Three Kingdoms has already crushed the land of the guide for three consecutive days. Is Chen Mo's new game really going to fail?"

"Indeed, I've played both games. 'The heroes of the Three Kingdoms' is more stable, and all kinds of things are stimulating me to top up. However, there doesn't seem to be any top-up activities in 'leading the land', and there's no desire to top-up at all!"

"Chen Mo has completely overturned his profit model for mobile games?"

"He didn't completely overthrow it. I just don't know why his style is completely different from before."

"Everyone, I have a different view from you. I think "leading the land" will definitely overtake us. "

"Why?"

"I think from now on,'leading the land' will start to make a name for itself in the rankings. Its income will have an explosive increase. Just wait and see, the state wars in the various servers have basically entered the stage of white hot. If they really start fighting, it's hard to imagine how many people will turn into paid players. "

...

Zheng Hongxi came to Chen Zhao with two dark circles under his eyes.

Manager, I don't think I can continue playing this game ..."

"What?" Chen Mo was stunned."What's wrong?"

Zheng Hongxi handed the phone to Chen Mo. "Manager, look at Liangzhou's current situation. Do you think we can turn the tables?"

Chen Mo took the phone and looked at the state war status.

Obviously, Zheng Hongxi had successfully transformed into a pay-to-win player during this period of time. A conservative estimate was that he had already added 70000 to 80000.

Of course, with his current income, the money was still acceptable. However, what made Zheng Hongxi depressed was that although his troops were very strong now and could completely suppress the local tyrants in Yizhou, the situation was still a little difficult to deal with.

After Yi Prefecture was breached, Liang Prefecture and Yi Prefecture fought back and forth near Lin Qiang, but Lin Qiang still fell in the end.

Fortunately, due to the Dragon War's active resistance, those small leagues did not surrender at the mere sight of the wind. Instead, they joined the Dragon War to fight against Yizhou.

It was good news for Liangzhou that the People's hearts were still United.

After Yizhou took down linqiang, they set their sights on Xiping again. This was a truly critical moment for Liangzhou.

As Xiping was a Prefecture city, after occupying it, Yizhou could gather troops and form legions. At the same time, they could control the entire Prefecture, reducing the time for Alliance members to build fortresses in the prefecture and preventing other Alliance members from moving their main cities in.

In other words, once Xiping was lost, nearly one-seventh of the territory of Liang Province would have to be handed over.

Chapter 414: Chapter 413-"the shore of the land"

"Yizhou is fighting Xiping now?" Chen Zhao asked.

Zheng Hongxi nodded."That's right. Everyone was already depressed when linqiang was lost. If Xiping is lost as well, the Alliance might be disunited. There'll be no way to clean up the mess."

"Have you contacted Yangzhou?" Chen Mo asked.

Zheng Hongxi was stunned,'Yangzhou? Why did you contact Yangzhou?"

"It's obvious that Jingzhou and Yizhou are allies;; Chen Xiao said;; they've been tied together for a long time; it's impossible for them to surrender to Yizhou; after fighting for so long, they're already angry; Qingzhou is too far away, and Qingzhou and Youzhou are at Bingzhou, so they can't help you. The only option left is to form an alliance with Yangzhou. "

"But Yangzhou is too far away from us!" Zheng Hongxi said. They're still fighting Jing Prefecture, so how could they help us fight Yi Prefecture?"

Chen Mo shook his head,"I don't think so." "Right now, Yangzhou is fighting Jingzhou, and Yizhou is fighting Liangzhou. The key is to see who can't hold on first. If Liangzhou can't hold on, Yizhou will take Liangzhou and go back to Jingzhou. If Jingzhou could not hold on any longer, Yizhou would have to give up Liangzhou. This is a world of difference. "

"The most important thing for your Liangzhou now is that the People's hearts can not be scattered. Obviously, you can't defeat Yizhou with your own strength. And the best way to boost morale was to find a strong Alliance. By forming an alliance with Yangzhou, we can boost the morale of Liangzhou, and we can also put pressure on Yangzhou, forcing them to attack Jingzhou with more effort. This will make Yizhou lose interest in the other regions. "

Zheng Hongxi hesitated,"but, manager, can this solve the urgent problem?" Xiping is about to fall. "

Chen Zhao laughed,"what's the urgent need?" Yizhou had been struggling ever since they broke through, so what if they lost Xiping? It would be a long time before they could reach Wuwei and Jin city. As long as the People's hearts are still there, we can just give them Xiping. "

...

"The key now is not to lose a few cities in Liangzhou. It doesn't matter how many cities you lose, but to unite. As long as you refuse to surrender, Yizhou will be powerless to do anything. "

Zheng Hongxi suddenly realized,'that makes sense! Manager, I'll go find the Alliance master of Yangzhou now!"

...

Zheng Hongxi could be considered a bystander. After Chen Mo's advice, he immediately got in touch with Yangzhou and put pressure on them to speed up their attack on Jingzhou. Liangzhou was on the verge of collapse and could fall apart at any time.

Of course, these words were half true and half false, but Yangzhou did indeed take them very seriously. After the Jin Xiu group finished taking Xu Prefecture, all the players in Yangzhou were mobilized to launch a fierce attack on Jing Prefecture.

Yizhou and Jingzhou had always been allies. According to Yizhou's plan, Yizhou would first disperse Liangzhou and take it in before helping Jingzhou to fight Yangzhou. In the end, they couldn't take down Liangzhou no matter what, and Jingzhou was the first to fall!

In the end, Yizhou took Xiping, but the two allies of Yangzhou had already turned Jingzhou into a sieve. They even crossed two provinces and tried to lay their land at the checkpoint of Yizhou.

The people in Jingzhou had already dispersed. Many players were dissatisfied with the Alliance master of Jingzhou working with Yizhou to fight Yangzhou to the death, so they all turned to Yangzhou.

To Yizhou, the situation was already out of control, and they could only withdraw their troops.

...

In the Dragon War chat group.

"Yizhou's soldiers have withdrawn! Many of the fortresses have been demolished, and there are only a dozen troops left near Xiping!"

"They really, really withdrew their troops!"

"Hahaha, I heard that Jingzhou can't hold on any longer. Yizhou has to go back and take in the Jingzhou players. Otherwise, the entire Jingzhou will be swallowed up by Yangzhou!"

"We've finally defended it!"

"Quick, everyone, let's keep up the good work. We'll take back Xiping and attack Yizhou!"

"That's great! I want to top up money and celebrate with a card!"

Everyone was overjoyed. After a long period of battle, Liangzhou finally saw the light of hope. From the Civil War in the beginning to the breakthrough of Yizhou, the players of Liangzhou had gritted their teeth and held on. Now, they finally had the chance to attack Yizhou!

A large number of troops began to push towards Xiping, preparing to take back Xiping and attack Yizhou!

...

Many videogame designers suddenly realized that it seemed like leading the land was rising in the mobile best selling leaderboard.

From the tenth place, to the ninth, to the eighth ...

It seemed to be increasing every day, and there was basically no pause!

On the contrary,"the heroes of the Three Kingdoms" was clearly showing a decline, and the follow-up was lacking.

Many people were puzzled. What was going on?

It was understandable that the heroes of the Three Kingdoms didn't follow up well. After all, it was a mobile card game, and the way to play it wasn't new. The players 'desire for cards in the early stages drove them to top up and draw cards, but in the middle and late stages, players would abandon the game because of the single way of playing. This was normal, and all mobile card games followed this path.

However, why did "leading the land" show its power in the later stages?

There were also some designers like Zheng Hongxi who insisted on playing "leading the land". After experiencing the state war, these designers quickly understood the core fun and the secret of making profits of "leading the land".

...

Although "leading the land" was also a Game of the Three Kingdoms, it did not use the game to reproduce the plot of the Three Kingdoms. Instead, it tried to create a real world and let the players decide the direction of the whole world.

For example, in Zheng Hongxi's server, Yizhou's decision to attack Liangzhou was actually a completely wrong decision. Not only did they fail to take over Liangzhou, but they also caused Jingzhou to collapse. Yizhou was unable to take care of one thing and lost the other, greatly damaging its vitality.

What if Yi Province chose to join hands with Liang Province and advance to the resource province first? Perhaps the whole server would take a different turn.

It was because of this variety of choices that players had countless possibilities when playing the game. The final ecosystem of the entire server was determined by all players.

As for which Alliance would be able to take down Luoyang and unify the world? No one knew. However, no matter which Alliance it was, it required clear leadership, strong execution of the team, and a sufficient number of tycoons to do it.

Moreover,"leading the land" had a very good figure in terms of per capita purchase. Although there were basically no top-up activities, the rich were very enthusiastic about top-ups.

The reason for this was that "leading the land" was a World War game. During the World War, players would have a strong sense of honor for their own Alliance and state. Whether it was to fight for more resources or to defend their own territory, these players would be motivated to top up their game to gain higher combat power.

Moreover,"land of the guide" was not like other games that had no restrictions on rich players. It built a wonderful balance.

It was true that the rich players could beat the civilian players by topping up their money, but the civilian players could also build an army that was not inferior to the rich players through the accumulation of time. They could even use a variety of tactics and game mechanisms to defeat the rich players.

Such a design ensured that the game's ecosystem would not deteriorate, and both civilians and tycoons could play a key role. With the long-term playability of strategy games, it was not surprising that it could stimulate players to continue paying.

Chapter 415: Why am I not an S-Class yet?

Two weeks after it was released,"leading the land" successfully reached the third place on the mobile game best selling leaderboard, while "history of the heroes of the Three Kingdoms" kept falling and finally stopped at 12th place.

Although the ranking of "leading land" did not continue to rise after that, it was not easy for a SLG game to climb to this position.

Obviously,"leading the land" was far from being a perfect game. As a SLG game, its biggest problem was that it was too difficult to get the hang of it, and it was too slow to get popular. Most players would only experience its fun after playing for two or three weeks and entering the state war stage. It would take a few months to fully understand it, which was obviously out of place in the fast-food gaming environment.

It was possible that at the novice stage, 80 to 90% of the players would be dissuaded and would not be able to experience its true fun.

However, the land of the guide was also a game with outstanding advantages. For many old players, it was a game that they wouldn't get tired of even after playing for a few years.

Unlike traditional pay-to-win mobile games,"leading the land" was more gentle and long-term.

……

Some video game media also reported on the unique Game of the Three Kingdoms.

"A Game of the Three Kingdoms that can freely change the world?"

"Chen Mo once again teaches all mobile game designers a lesson!"

"Player reviews: this is the real chaotic era of the Three Kingdoms!"

"Game review: difficult but rich in content and novel playstyle!"

"Chen Mo's new work shows you a different Three Kingdoms"

...

"Leading the land: no story, players create the story!"

To most players, the land of the guide didn't cause much of a stir. Compared to Chen Mo's other works, this mobile game wasn't that earth-shaking.

However, all the players were sure of one thing, and that was that no matter what game Chen Mo made, it would always surprise them.

……

In the final selection,"the land of the guide" undoubtedly won the first prize.

Of course, it wasn't that this game was too good, but that the competition games of the same period were too weak. The only decent game, heroes of the Three Kingdoms, was still using the mobile card game that Chen Mo had long gotten tired of. On the other hand, the land of the guide was a complete innovation, so it was clear which one was better.

Chen Mo also posted on Weibo.

"Aiya, I got the first prize again. There's almost no more space on the bookshelf. What a worry."

The attached picture was the certificate and trophy for the "Three Kingdoms event" first prize.

This Weibo post infuriated many video game designers.

"F * ck, this Chen Zhao is asking for a beating!"

"Isn't this rubbing salt into our wounds?"

"Beat this pretentious d * ck to death! If you can 't, give it to me!"

"Go play your PC and VR games. Don't mess around with the mobile game!"

"I'm so angry. Can't you leave a prize for us?"

"I strongly protest! They request that Chen Mo be disqualified from the next competition!"

Of course, grumbling aside, many mobile game designers still received a lot of inspiration from the game.

One of the biggest inspiration was that Chen Mo tested the limits of the players for all the designers.

And the result of the test was that the players seemed to have no bottom line?

Many people thought Onmyoji was already a heavy game, and a mobile game that required four to five hours of playtime was already impressive to most designers, but Chen Mo made an even heavier version of it!

Not to mention four or five hours, it wouldn't be too much to play "land of the guide" for ten hours a day! Furthermore, they had to do it at a fixed time. They would fight during the day and at night. Once the state war started, they would not even have the time to rest.

Fortunately, it was a mobile game. If it was a PC or VR game, how many players would wake up in the middle of the night to fight?

However, from the players 'feedback, it seemed like many of them felt that it was alright?

What the hell was this!

Many video game designers had realized that while heavy mobile games would tire players out, it was very sticky.

After most players got into the habit, the first thing they did when they took out their phones was to open "leading the land". They played and played it every day, so it was not easy to give up the game because they were too bored.

"In that case, can we also make some games that are more intense? For example, transplanting a war RPG like Heavenly Sword of the Three Kingdoms to a mobile game platform?"

This was a question that many mobile game designers were thinking about.

……

……

Even though he had successfully put many video game designers in a bad mood, Chen Mo wasn't in a good mood either.

This was because Chen Mo's scores in all aspects had increased greatly in the illusion game engine, except for his designer rating, which was an A !

Chen Mo was speechless. Why?

[3D art: 81]

Monthly resources quota: 2TB

In terms of the various values, compared to before, the creativity, system, and level design had all improved slightly. The 3D art had also improved significantly, but the story had not changed.

Chen Mo thought that he would be able to get the title of S-grade video game designer if he made a phenomenal VR game, but it didn't seem to be the case.

Chen Mo had already made two VR games, Minecraft and outlast. These two games should be considered phenomenal in their respective fields, right?

Besides, League of Legends was already so popular that it almost dominated the entire PC game. Wasn't this even considered?

Why didn't you give me an S-grade videogame designer? why did you give me an A ?

Even though Chen Mo was full of questions, he had no one to ask. The few S-grade video game designers in the country were either working for big companies like Emperor dynasty or Zen, or they were all alone. They had no connection with Chen Mo.

After much thought, Chen Mo decided to call Qiao Hua from the game Committee.

Qiao Hua chuckled at Chen Mo's question.

"Well, Chen Zhao. As for your rating, it's not that I'm targeting you, but the game Committee has a set of clear standards for S-grade video game designers. "

"Even though Minecraft and outlast are both good VR games, they're still different from the game committee's definition of 'top quality VR games'.

"The members of the game Committee are split into two groups. One group thinks that you've made successful games on mobile, PC, and VR platforms, and that you've been constantly creating new ones, so you should've been an S-grade videogame designer a long time ago. The other faction is more conservative, thinking that while Minecraft and outlast are very creative, they're obviously opportunistic and can't be considered top quality VR games. "

"Then what is considered a top quality VR game?" Chen Mo was speechless.

"There's no doubt that Minecraft and outlast are great games,"Qiao Hua explained. However, it's hard to win over the majority of the judges in terms of art. "

"Artistic?" Chen Mo was stunned.

"Yes, artistic," Qiao Hua replied. This is because games are viewed as the ninth form of art. Art includes many aspects, such as character design, world setting, story, art style, music style, and so on. "

"Or to put it bluntly, only a VR game with a chance of winning the best of the year can be rated S. It doesn't have much to do with how much money your game makes or how popular it is. It mainly depends on the evaluation of the judges. "

Chen Zhao got it,"okay, I understand." Wasn't it just a game to please the judges? I'll make another one!"

Chapter 416: Making a game of the year in three months

"Another one?" Qiao Hua laughed. Chen Mo, this game isn't like cabbages, you can't just pull them out like that. Actually, you don't need to be anxious at all. With your talent, it is only a matter of time before you reach [S] class. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"I understand," Chen Zhao said."Thank you, Minister Qiao."

After Qiao Hua's explanation, Chen Mo had a general idea.

The judges in this world were similar to the ones in Chen Mo's previous world. They would consider many factors when evaluating a game, and not just the number of players, profit, or popularity.

For example, in Chen Mo's previous life, PlayerUnknown's Battleground didn't win game of the year despite its popularity, but lost to Legend of Zelda: Breath of the wilderness.

When evaluating a game, many review boards would consider the 'artistic' aspect. This consideration was multi-faceted.

For example, the structure of the entire world setting.

For example, whether the plot and the related characters were designed with a unique style.

For example, the level design in the game, and whether the puzzle-solving content was complicated and interesting enough.

For example, whether the game was innovative and popular with players.

Such things would all be included in the scope of consideration of the judges.

Even though games like League of Legends, outlast, and Minecraft could be said to be the best of their genre, the biggest problem was that in the eyes of the judges, they were only outstanding in certain types of games. They could win best PC game, best horror game, best puzzle game, or best innovative game, but it was usually very difficult to get a major award like game of the year.

Because these games were not comprehensive enough, they were at a disadvantage in terms of the world's background, story, level design, and so on.

...

In the eyes of the more traditional and conservative judges, no matter how many people played the game and how popular it was, if it wasn't artistic enough, they wouldn't give it to the game of the year.

Chen Zhao was thinking.

There were many restrictions on which game to choose.

There were two major restrictions. One was time, and the other was experience.

It was already November, and this year's annual Gaming Awards ceremony was at the beginning of February, so there were still three months left.

Chen Mo had to make a VR game before the award ceremony and win game of the year in order to get the S-grade videogame designer title.

Otherwise, if they missed this year's annual Gaming Awards ceremony, they would have to wait until next year for the next best game of the year. Wait for another twelve months? Chen Zhao could not wait.

Then, what about making a VR game in three months?

It sounded a bit ridiculous, but it wasn't completely impossible. After all, Chen Mo had completed outlast in three months.

VR games were different from VR games. Outlast's entire game process only took slightly more than an hour. As long as the script was set and the art resources were in place, it was done very quickly.

However, it also depended on what game he was playing.

Outlast was a small production, after all. If they wanted to make an open world? There was definitely not enough time.

It would take a long time to construct the entire world and the massive art resources. It would take at least a year and a half to migrate the Super-large series of games from his previous life to VR.

Moreover, Chen Mo didn't have any experience in making a large open world. So far, Chen Mo's games looked like they were unconventional, which could be summarized as: Under the condition that the quality was guaranteed, it was both fast and economical.

Moreover, Chen Mo didn't plan on spending so much effort to move those mega-sized games. After all, his only goal this time was to win the award and become an S-grade video game designer, so the less he spent, the better.

This meant that Chen Mo needed a game like this.

Suitable for VR.

It would be better to save as much resources as possible, and it would be best to complete it within three months.

It had to meet the judges 'taste, be artistic, and have the hope of being' game of the year '.

Moreover, during the selection process, the game's "characteristics" were more important than the actual "quality." It was a special game genre that had never appeared before, and it had a higher chance of winning the judges 'favor.

In the eyes of the designers of this world, these conditions should be completely impossible to achieve.

Three months to complete a game of the year? No matter how he thought about it, it was nonsense.

However, Chen Mo happened to have a game like that.

Overwatch, a product of Blizzard.

Chen Mo was a little surprised when he thought of the game, but after some consideration, it seemed to be the best choice at the moment.

Of course, in Chen Mo's previous life, there was a lot of controversy surrounding the game, the biggest of which was its lifespan.

If it was compared to the long-lived LOL, DOTA, and CSGO, Overwatch was not as good as the three competitive games in terms of player retention. It was also far behind in terms of reputation, popularity, and competitiveness.

Of course, there were more complicated factors in this, so he didn't talk about it for now.

However, if they were to compete to see who had won more awards?

In Chen Mo's previous life, in 2016, Overwatch won game of the year in all three games: TGA, women, GDC, and IGN. It swept away most of the most prestigious awards in the video game industry, and made Blizzard the biggest winner of 2016.

Moreover, the fact that the Overwatch defeated mysterious Sea 4 had caused a heated argument between console players and Blizzard fans. Normally, games of the year would not be given to competitive games, so many players thought that mysterious Sea 4 had already been decided as the best of the year.

There were even players who said that so many successful competitive games had never won this award, so how could Overwatch win it? Could it be that Blizzard stuffed him with money?

If it had only won one or two awards, it would have been a little controversial. But if it had won almost all of the annual game Awards, it could only mean one thing: Overwatch had indeed gained the favor of a large group of judges, which was why they had given game of the year to a competitive game.

In fact, this was not difficult to understand.

Even though Overwatch wasn't a competitive game, its advantages were in character design, playstyle innovation, story background, and cultural implications. The judges placed great importance on these aspects.

Furthermore, to Chen Mo, Overwatch had an obvious advantage, and that was that it was easy to make.

The first version of Overwatch only required a few battle maps and a dozen heroes, unlike other Triple-A games, which required a few hours of planning or a large open world.

To make a game that could compete for 'game of the year' in three months?

Overwatch was Chen Mo's best choice at the moment.

Chapter 417: Advantages and problems co-exist in "Overwatch"

After deciding on the next game, Chen Mo started writing the design concept for Overwatch.

As a competitive game, Overwatch itself did not have much game content. Whether it was the number of heroes, skill mechanisms, map elements, or other aspects, it was far inferior to those real big productions.

In Chen Mo's plan, the first expansion of the Overwatch was as follows.

In terms of heroes, the first 22 heroes would be released, and new heroes would be added in after the shadow.

In terms of maps, 12 maps will be available, and the maps beyond echeinwald will not be available for the time being.

This was mainly to ensure that the players had the most basic gaming experience. If the content of the game was cut down further, it would be too little, which would greatly affect the gameplay.

In addition, some more important systems had to be done, such as training mode, hero skins, box opening, outstanding performance, social interaction, career overview, choice settings, and so on.

The other changes were to the game, and the biggest change was mainly in the game mode.

Chen Zhao had considered this a lot.

Strictly speaking, Overwatch wasn't a particularly successful competitive game. From the perspective of game balance, player data, match enjoyment, popularity, and many other aspects, Overwatch was much worse than DOTA, LOL, and CSGO.

Apart from the competition, just the gaming experience of the players alone, Overwatch had many flaws.

One of the core problems was that this was a game that tried to eliminate negative feedback, but the players received more negative feedback than most other games.

When players first came into contact with the game, they were very excited and felt that everything was perfect. However, after playing for a long time, they would feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

...

For many players, there was a very puzzling question. What should I do to win when my teammates are not strong enough?

What should I do to become stronger?

In terms of playstyle, Overwatch had inherited the playstyle of Legion Fortress 2, but it faced problems that Legion Fortress 2 had never faced.

If it was just a niche game, both Legion Fortress 2 and Overwatch would be doing well. However, what if they wanted to replace MOBA games and promote this brand new game mode to the whole world and become one of the mainstream games?

It was too difficult.

There were many reasons for this, but the core reason was that Overwatch wasn't a mature game model, and Blizzard wasn't able to make it perfect.

As an FPS game with skills, Overwatch had the playstyle of both MOBA and FPS games. However, it also created many new problems.

Due to the different positions and skills of the heroes, the restraint between different heroes was too obvious. For example, the yuan family was naturally restrained by Winston. This kind of restraint was basically impossible to make up for with skills, which was completely contrary to the habits of FPS players.

In an FPS game, as long as one's marksmanship was good enough, one could solve most problems. However, this was not the case in Overwatch.

At the same time, since Overwatch's main gameplay was FPS, any slight change in the numbers would cause extremely serious consequences. Therefore, the balance of the heroes was more difficult than MOBA games, which directly led to problems such as slow updates of new heroes and rigid lineup in high-end games.

At the same time, Blizzard's preferred "warrior, mage, and priest" Iron Triangle mode also reduced the fun of the game itself.

Overwatch was a game that was extremely dependent on teams. Therefore, some heroes that could provide a lot of benefits to the team, such as Reinhardt, Anna, and Lucio, were very popular. As for the heroes that could not provide any benefits to the team, such as Black Lily, Hanzo, and so on, they would not be accepted by the team even if the player's skill level was high.

In simple terms, it was the same 6V6, and all the heroes were given 1 point each. Some of the heroes added up to 6 points, while others added up to 100 points.

At the same time, the competitive mode accelerated the players 'exploration and development of this game mode. In order to win, most players would force their own side to choose the best lineup, causing hero discrimination to appear even before the game began.

You choose to rebuild the Empire? I don't care if you're good at it or not, I'll spray you first.

("Rebuild the Empire" refers to the Easter egg that was triggered when Hanzo and black Lily chose it at the same time. These two heroes were similar to snipers and had almost zero bonus to the team, so many players thought that they would not win as long as they were chosen.)

That was why 303 and 402 were so popular, making the game lose the fun of MOBA games and FPS games. In addition, the game update was slow, the single-purchase system caused a low number of players, and the competitive mode was unreasonable. All of this made the game lose its popularity quickly.

What Chen Mo wanted to do was to take over the advantages of Overwatch while avoiding these flaws, allowing the game to last longer in VR.

The core idea of the change was to completely abandon the competitive route and make Overwatch a game that leaned more towards entertainment.

The specific approach was to not open the stairway system and not hold any related competitions.

This might seem absurd, but it was the result of Chen Zhao's careful consideration. While making Warcraft and League of Legends, Chen Mo was well aware of how the ladder and ranking system would help with competitive games. It could be said that high-end competitions were an important addition to League of Legends, and only an idiot wouldn't make it.

However, for Overwatch, the stairway tree system and related events would not have much of an impact. Instead, it would have a certain negative impact on the game environment.

In Chen Mo's previous life, the competition for Overwatch was also very popular, but there were two problems that couldn't be solved.

The first was the viewing pleasure. Like all FPS games, this was a small problem that could not be solved.

The second problem was the lineup. As the pro players continued to explore, they would discover that under the current game mechanics, 222 or 303 was the best lineup. Some heroes were just not good, and some heroes were basically useless.

This trend would quickly spread from the competition to the high-end games, and then to the fish pond, affecting all the players 'evaluation of the heroes. In the end, it would inevitably lead to a situation where "rebuilding the Empire combination would lead to abuse".

Limited by the nature of the game, these two problems were unsolvable. Since they couldn't be solved, they might as well not do it. If they forced it, it would only overdraft the game's lifespan and have the opposite effect.

Chapter 418: The improvement plan

Chen Mo's idea was to make Overwatch into an entertainment game, to maintain the core fun of the game.

First of all, he had to remove the threshold and make the game completely free of charge. He could only make a profit from the skins, avatars, and other value-added services.

This was to attract as many players as possible and expand the depth of the whole fish pond, so that most players 'win rate and matching experience were close to that of League of Legends.

Many players might think that it was stupid to force a 50% win rate, but in fact, a competitive game that could not guarantee a 50% win rate was a disaster.

Not being able to guarantee a 50% win rate meant that some players who played well could keep winning, while those who played badly would keep losing. This would aggravate the loss of players in the fish pond, which was extremely detrimental to the lifespan of the game.

Secondly, it was to reduce the feeling of winning and losing and strengthen the player's sense of growth.

For a competitive game, most players 'main joy came from winning. On the basis of maintaining this, he also had to try his best to make the losing player not so depressed.

In his previous life, one of the problems of Overwatch was that players lost for no reason. You might think that it was because one of your teammates did not play well, or that they did not cooperate well, or that the lineup was not good. In short, the system would not tell you where you lost, and you would not be able to figure it out.

This directly caused many players to feel a deep sense of powerlessness after losing, and the negative feedback after losing could be called explosive.

Chen Mo's method was to record all the stats of the player's heroes throughout the game, not just damage, healing, and kill.

For example, Winston would integrate data such as damage, number of kills, number of deaths, damage taken, critical kills (killing the opponent's output or healer with better data), critical damage (the amount of damage contributed to the critical kill), the effect of the big move (whether the timing was correct), and so on. He would give a comprehensive assessment for each game.

All the players could clearly see these numbers and could also clearly distinguish which players were carrying and which players were cheating.

At the same time, the kill count would no longer be shared, and the situation of getting a kill count gold medal from killing would no longer exist.

...

Of course, since all the data was made public and even more detailed, the "gold" setting was removed.

Moreover, this setting itself was meaningless, because most players didn't agree that winning a gold medal didn't necessarily mean that you played well.

For players, if they chose the same champion, they would be able to see the change in the champion's proficiency at the end of each game. This was equivalent to a disguised form of motivation.

For example, if you used Hanzo and performed well throughout the game, even if you lost the game, you would forget the unhappiness of your failure when you saw that you had gotten an S-rank score and performed better than before.

Moreover, the rewards that players received were directly linked to their individual performance, and had nothing to do with winning or losing. As long as you played well, you could get more rewards if you lost than if you won. This would dilute the frustration of losing the game.

For those who were not good at the game, they could also clearly know what was wrong with them through various data.

For example, if a player chose death, the system would send him a notification after the game ended: In this round, his performance was B, and the number of times he used his E-skill to move was far lower than the average. The number of times he used SHIFT to avoid damage was far lower than the average, and the total damage of grapeshot was far higher than the total damage of the short range.

Combining these data, the system could determine that this player didn't know how to attack from the back. After this player understood this principle, he would subconsciously strengthen his performance in these aspects the next time he played Grim Reaper.

Only by winning with joy and losing with a clear understanding would most players be able to enjoy themselves in the game.

The last point was to open a variety of game modes.

One of the biggest problems of Overwatch was that the 6V6 all-hero selection mode caused some team-enhancing heroes to be far more effective than ordinary Assault Heroes, causing the lineup to be rigid.

Chen Mo was thinking of activating five different modes for the players to choose. The one with the most players would determine the correct choice.

The first was the classic mode, all Heroes 6V6, and could not be chosen repeatedly.

The second was the FPS mode, where players could only choose the assault-type hero. In other words, this mode would return to the original fun of FPS games, and everything would be decided by shooting.

The third was the ban mode, where each side could vote to ban three Champions. If the players generally felt that the hammer and the DJ were not fun and did not want the opponent to get them, they could ban them directly and they would not appear in the game.

The fourth mode was a 12 VS 12 mode with more people, and it was not semi-finals. The meaning of this mode was that the players had more room to stir up trouble, and many heroes had more opportunities to play.

The problem with a 6V6 was that the space was very limited, so for the sake of the team, two tanks and two healers were basically necessary, so there were only two assault positions.

In the competition for the assault position, it was obvious that the heroes with higher damage ability (such as Soldier 76) would appear all year round, while the heroes with lower damage ability would not have any chance to appear at all. Even if you played well, your teammates would not trust you.

In a 12 VS 12 situation, the entire team would be able to give more space to the less popular Champions. For example, while ensuring that they had the basic number of tanks and healers, they could choose 76, Black Lily, Hanzo, Yuanshi, and Grim Reaper at the same time. They could take into account the high ground sniping, cutting to the back, regular damage output, and other damage output methods, allowing more Champions to have the space to fight.

The fifth was the promotion mode. When a hero's kill count reached a certain number or received a certain number of assists without dying, they would be promoted and choose a certain ability to enhance. In other words, they could snowball with the advantage of the early stage.

Of course, the other party could also achieve a stronger promotion effect by ending the combo kill.

Moreover, all effects will be reset to zero after the end of the current round to ensure the fairness of the initial round.

This was mainly to satisfy the players who wanted to be a hero and experience the thrill of one against five in this game.

On top of that, Chen Mo's Overwatch would have a more stringent reward and punishment system.

Every player's performance in daily matches would affect the player's overall score. In matchmaking, players of similar levels would be assigned to the same match first.

If a player's score was always very low, he would be matched with a weaker opponent.

If a player was reported by many players for being passive in the game, cursing, etc., There would be a certain punishment. Moreover, this group of players would enter the same game first. In serious cases, they would be locked in a small black room and would only be released after playing a certain number of human-machine games.

Of course, Chen Mo wasn't 100% sure if these changes would work. However, there was one thing that Chen Mo was clear about. Overwatch was a great game, and it shouldn't just be as popular as it was in his previous life, it should be better.

Chen Mo didn't want the popularity of his own game to die down after a period of popularity. He wanted the game to live longer and allow more players to enjoy the game.

Chapter 419: An FPS with a skill

Very quickly, the design concept for Overwatch was completed.

The game's Foundation wasn't that complicated, and Chen Mo's modifications were mainly focused on the game's mechanics, so it wasn't that difficult to make.

Chen Mo's changes were to ensure that the game's core enjoyment was preserved, without damaging the game's original characteristics.

One of the biggest problems of Overwatch was that some simple or boring heroes were too strong. Players would not win if they did not choose them, but it would not be fun if they chose them. Therefore, many players would play heroes that they did not like to play in order to win.

He didn't feel anything when he won, but he would explode if he lost.

For example, Champions like dachui and Lucio did have a lot of high-end techniques in high-end games, but the players who were playing in the game would not be able to experience them.

In terms of hero skills, the skills of these heroes were very simple and straightforward. There was no special space for them to show off. They gave a lot of benefits to their teammates, but the fun of playing them was very limited.

However, changing the hero's skills would destroy the hero's original characteristics. Many players hated the sledgehammer's shield. However, if the shield was changed, would it still be considered a sledgehammer?

Therefore, while retaining the hero's skills and characteristics, the most reasonable and effective way to change the game was to enrich the game's mechanism so that more heroes could appear.

After finishing the design document, Chen Mo called everyone to the meeting room for a meeting.

Many people in the studio were still immersed in the atmosphere of the S1 World Finals. When they heard that they were going to start making a new game, many of them were dumbfounded.

"In such a hurry?" Su Jinyu was stunned.

Everyone had just returned from Shanghai not long ago. Even if they wanted to make a new game, they should at least think about what to do first, right?

...

Chen Mo smiled, and the title of the document appeared on the screen: Overwatch's design concept.

"Everyone, the mission this time is rather urgent." Chen Mo looked at everyone,"we're going to make a game of the year within three months."

"Ah?"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Three months? Making a game of the year?

Even though everyone was used to Chen Mo's bragging, this was still unbelievable to many.

Making a game of the year in three months? It felt like an insult to the other video game designers!

Other people might not even be able to compete for the game of the year even after two to three years of hard work, but we have one in three months? Wasn't this too ridiculous?

Besides, it wasn't up to them to decide if they wanted to win the game of the year. They had to get the judges to like it.

Most of the people present knew that even though Thunderbolt entertainment had developed League of Legends this year, held the world Finals, and also developed their second VR game escape, it was still too difficult to get the title of game of the year with those.

Because it didn't suit the judges 'taste.

Chen Mo clearly knew this, which was why he wanted to make a new game. From what he said, the main purpose of this game was to win prizes.

Would it work?

Everyone listened to Chen Mo's explanation of the new game with questions in their minds.

"Overwatch is an FPS game, but it's completely different from all the mainstream FPS games on the market. This is because in this game, the hero's skills will have a completely different impact on the battle.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

"An FPS with skills" was indeed an idea that many people had thought of, but no one had ever been able to turn it into reality.

A concept sketch appeared on the projector. It was the image of a warrior wearing high-tech Armor, unsheathing the long sword on his back, and a giant Dragon's Shadow coiling around him, looking murderous.

"Take the yuan clan as an example. His normal attack was to throw shurikens and attack the enemy from a distance. It has two special skills that can quickly move and deal damage to the enemy. It can also reflect long-range attacks. At the same time, he can climb walls at will and can jump twice. "

"His big move is to pull out the long sword on his back and cause a lot of damage to the enemy in a short time."

"Another example is Xiaomei. She has two normal attack methods. One is to slowly spit out ice mist to freeze the enemy, and the other is to shoot icicles to cause point damage. Special skills could create an ice wall or enter a state of quick freeze, making one immune to damage. The big move is Blizzard, freezing a large number of enemies in the range. "

Chen Mo briefly explained the two classic heroes in Overwatch to help everyone understand what an 'FPS game with skills' was.

Due to time constraints, Chen Mo wasn't able to draw out all the sketches for all the heroes. He only picked two heroes with distinctive features.

Through the two sketches and Chen Mo's description, most people could quickly imagine how the two hero games would look like.

"If that's the case," Qian Kun scratched his head,"then all the heroes would be very powerful. Wouldn't it be like a fight between gods?"

"Yes," Chen Zhao smiled."You can think of it that way."

Su Jinyu said,"are you stupid?" Don't all the heroes in League of Legends have skills?"

Qian Kun waved his hand,"of course I know. I mean, this is an FPS game after all, right? Will there be a situation where the five of us run forward with guns in our hands, only for Xiaomei to suddenly appear out of nowhere and cast a Blizzard to freeze us all, and then we'll all be F * cked?"

Chen Mo nodded,"yeah, that's possible." However, this is also the fun part of the game. As a pretty player, you should try your best to create such opportunities. "

"Uh, then the balance of this game will be very difficult." After all, Qian Kun was in the field of numerical values, so he was very sensitive to these issues.

Chen Mo nodded,"it's indeed hard to balance, but it's an inevitable problem." I can only say that if you want to do a good job in an FPS with skills, you have to solve the problem of balance as much as possible. "

"Understood," Qian Kun nodded.

Obviously, it would be more difficult to balance out the skills in an FPS game. In MOBA games, the damage output of a champion's normal attacks could be estimated. An ADC, regardless of whether he had any critical equipment or not, could roughly estimate the damage output of the champion in a certain period of time.

However, in an FPS game, the output efficiency of a normal attack was dependent on the player's marksmanship and the level of the opponent. There was a world of difference in the output efficiency between an expert who managed to hit the head with a headshot and a noob who missed every single shot. At this time, with the addition of hero skills, it would make the actual strength of a hero more difficult to estimate and control.

Chen Mo looked at everyone and said,"I'll be in charge of balancing the numbers with Qian Kun. After all, we've had some experience in League of Legends. It shouldn't be too much of a problem." Do you have any other questions?"

Chapter 420: The first free VR game?

Su Jinyu thought for a moment and said,"manager, this is a good idea." However, did he really have a chance to compete for game of the year? As far as I know, this year's Game Awards are usually given to open world games with more content. "

"Don't worry about that," Chen Mo said,"there aren't any competitive VR games this year. There might be one or two that are good, but I'm confident in Overwatch." Besides, didn't Emperor dynasty Entertainment's Wolf Soul also win game of the year before? It's also an FPS. "

Seeing that no one had any more questions, Chen Mo continued explaining the other parts of the concept draft, including the game modes, hero settings, world backgrounds, map designs, additional playstyles, profit models, and so on.

The more they listened, the more excited they became. This concept draft was Chen Mo's style, and it was extremely complete. Everyone was especially interested in the heroes and their backstory.

However, there was still quite a bit of controversy regarding the profit model.

"Completely free of charge? Like League of Legends, they only rely on value-added services to charge?"

"Isn't it a little risky? It's a VR game, after all, so the investment is much higher than a PC game!"

"Yeah, and manager, there aren't many VR players in the first place. If we only sell value-added services, will we be able to cover our costs?"

"There's no VR game on the market that has no barriers to entry, right?"

Obviously, everyone knew the meaning of "no threshold" for competitive games, but the problem was that VR and PC platforms were different.

So far, the cheapest VR game in the country cost tens of Yuan, and no one had ever heard of a free game.

Chen Mo seemed to have expected everyone's reaction and smiled,""I understand everyone's meaning. Let's put it this way, even in the worst case scenario, the game would completely lose money, and it would be fine. This is because our goal is game of the year. "

"Do I have to make money? Our company isn't short of money right now, so it doesn't matter even if this game loses money and earns sales. Moreover, as long as there are enough players, it's impossible not to make money. "

...

"What do you guys think?" Chen Mo looked at everyone."What's the most suitable price for Overwatch?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Qian Kun said,"based on the price of Wolf Soul, it could be as low as 488 Yuan, and as high as 1288 or 1688 Yuan." Minecraft sold for 128 RMB, that's already a very low price. To many VR players, it's like giving it away for free. "

"If Overwatch is sold at 128 RMB, it'll only be 100 million RMB for a million copies. Do we lack 100 million RMB?" Chen Mo said.

Everyone was speechless.

It was true, Onmyoji's monthly revenue was already in the hundreds of millions, and Chen Mo didn't see any point in relying on Overwatch's sales.

Chen Mo continued,"even if the price is ten times higher, 1288, one million copies would be one billion." However, you have to consider how many players the Overwatch will lose at the 1288 threshold. "

"In other words, it's meaningless to set a low price. It doesn't matter if it's worth a few dollars, so it's better to give it for free. If we set it too high, we'll lose a lot of players. For us, the number of players is more important than the money we earn from sales. For a competitive game, I don't need to go into the importance of the depth of the fish pond, do I?"

"What if the Overwatch is completely free? Most of the VR gaming pods in the country or even overseas would probably be installed with Overwatch. Even those who don't play FPS games would be attracted to play it. As long as half, no, one-tenth of these people stay and become core players, it'll be a profit for us. "

Everyone looked at each other and did not speak.

Indeed, Chen Mo's words were a little shocking. If it was any other videogame designer, they wouldn't have the confidence to make a high-quality VR game for free and only make a profit by selling skins. What a great insight!

But Chen Mo was different. He had a lot of money now, and he had the final say. He could spend it however he wanted, and he could do whatever he wanted with it. No shareholder or investor would come out and tell him what to do.

Everyone could only sigh with emotion. Being rich was really willful!

However, Chen Mo's words made sense, since there weren't many VR players to begin with. If they were to add in a buyout, the depth of the game wouldn't be guaranteed, and the game wouldn't be very friendly to new players.

It was obvious that Chen Mo had great ambitions for Overwatch's performance in VR. He wanted to make it the game with the most players, and also make it the first top quality VR game with zero requirements.

In the end, everyone accepted Chen Mo's shocking decision to make a completely free VR game, and use it to compete for the Game of the Year award.

After all, he was the boss, and he had the final say.

……

In November, when Chen Mo was preparing for Overwatch, something happened in the gaming industry.

War of Souls, a first-person MOBA game developed by a small company, had quietly gone online and then disappeared.

This game was a PC game with a simple design idea. It was to take advantage of the MOBA trend brought by League of Legends and change the third person God's perspective to the first person perspective to explore another possibility.

But the result was unsurprisingly a failure, and many players had never even heard of this game.

In fact, when League of Legends first appeared, many designers had considered this problem: Can you change MOBA games to first person?

Many videogame designers gave up on such changes after careful consideration. This was also the main reason why big companies like Emperor dynasty entertainment and ZEN Entertainment didn't make a 'first person MOBA'.

The small company that produced War of Souls obviously wanted to try their luck, but they failed without a doubt.

This was because a very important factor in MOBA games was that players had to have a clear view of the entire battle. They had to be very clear about where their teammates were, what they were doing, and the position of the enemy heroes in order to make the right judgment.

Changing the third-person God's perspective to the first-person perspective directly limited the players 'vision and caused them to misjudge the battle situation.

Moreover, when using a wide-range skill, it was difficult to judge the actual range of the skill filter in the first-person perspective. Some full-map skills were very difficult to do, and the players 'judgment of the sense of distance often deviated.

All of these problems severely damaged the core fun of MOBA games. In addition, the level of the game was very average, so it didn't cause much of a splash.

This game also reinforced the mainstream belief that MOBA games couldn't be made in first person, much less in VR.
