Compared to the nervous staff, the culprits who created this tense situation had no awareness at all. Gu Fei and Han Family Young Master had already logged off one after the other. The rest of the people did what they had to do and were still living comfortably. Seeing how the main city had become so lively because of their piece of news, they all felt that it was quite interesting. The only annoying thing was that everyone was being harassed to varying degrees by their friends.
For example, Sword of No Oath, of course, it was inevitable that he would come over and try to get something out of it. But from Sword Demon's serious attitude, he really couldn't get anything out of it. As for the others, even core members like Yutian Shenming and Unscathed In Battle, even if they wanted to say something, how could they know what Han Family Young Master was planning to do tomorrow?
At that moment, Brother You finally understood that going offline tonight was definitely a very smart decision. As the core member with the weakest deterrent force and the one known for gossiping, he received the most harassment. Brother You couldn't take it anymore, and in the end, he also decisively chose to log off.
Very overpowered players gradually embarked on this path, which made the staff who paid special attention to them very frustrated. Many of them were even dragged out of their beds to work overtime. But this group of shameless culprits actually logged off early tonight to rest …
Apart from this group of shameless people, this night was really long for too many people.
The second day. To be honest, it was really hard to define the second day. In the announcement that Brother You made, the time used was "tomorrow". Many players treated the "second day" as coming after midnight, afraid that they would be very overpowered and rush to throw things early in the morning. At this time, many players hadn't completed their migration work, and the very overpowered players hadn't completely logged off. In the two cities of Cloud and Moonlight, there were already players walking around the streets paying attention to environmental protection. Once they saw someone throw something, they would excitedly pounce on it. Then, when they found out that it was really a pile of trash, there was no need to mention how disappointing it was.
Speaking of the forum notice, the players were quite depressed. The time was vague, and the location was not accurate either. Cloud and Moonlight, two cities, was it Cloud or Moonlight? Countless players were struggling to make a decision that night. Some people thought that since Cloud Sky was the home of these people, Cloud Sky would be the first to start. Others thought that Cloud Sky would do the exact opposite and throw Moonlit Night before returning home … Either way, after Moonlit Night City's servers were restored, Cloud Sky and Moonlit Night City began to interact with each other. That night, the meandering Dark Dragon Mountain Range was as lively as any main city's busiest street. Some players who liked to seize any opportunity to do business even went to the edge of a cliff.
Cloud City didn't disappoint either. After Moonlit City, it was also disconnected due to the network delay, but it was restored after half an hour. Everything was normal. When the sun was about to rise, the mail system was finally restored due to the persistent complaints and curses of the players. However, in the announcement, the officials solemnly pointed out that the crisis was not over. Due to the repeated requests of the players, the mail system was temporarily restored. However, the investigation of the loopholes was not over yet. With the circulation of mail, the difficulty and efficiency of the investigation would decrease, and there might be a delay in the delivery of mail.
This message was very subtle. After Moonlit Night City and Cloud Sky were overcrowded, the smart players had already guessed the true intention of the officials to suspend the mail system. At this time, when this message came out, many people were already aware that if they sent Teleportation Scrolls, they would be delayed. However, when they continued to try, they realized that they couldn't get their hands on Teleportation Scrolls anymore …
Players didn't have many Teleportation Scrolls in their hands. Studios would deliberately hoard these things, and during special times, these things would have special value. For example, tonight, when the Teleportation Scrolls were hyped up, many studios had already raised their swords high, ready to cut down the players' heads and faces. However, they didn't expect that the game company would actually make a move on them.
Powerful studios were all well-known in the game company. Tonight, they were all contacted by the game company, and the content was the same. They hoped that they would cooperate and control the trade of Teleportation Scrolls tonight. The reason was also the truth.
The game company said it politely, and the studios also fully understood their intentions. The so-called control of the trade, of course, was best to directly suspend the trade. Although the development of the studio's industry was booming, it wasn't yet the time to twist the thigh of the game company. Moreover, the game company obviously regarded their players as God, and at this time, they unscrupulously chose to sacrifice the interests of their studios.
The bosses of the studios could only swallow their anger and arrange for the trade of Teleportation Scrolls to be suspended. Since it was the intention of the game company, it was possible that these guys had already monitored every Teleportation Scroll. In this world, when it was said that heaven knows, earth knows, you know, and I know, one must understand that there really was heaven and earth … The game system was this heaven and earth, and as long as it was willing, it could know everything. No studios dared to take the risk. They all kept their Teleportation Scrolls well, so after the mail system was restored, it became a common phenomenon that they couldn't find Teleportation Scrolls.
In fact, according to the data some staff had, after the parallel operation of eleven servers in Cloud City and Moonlit Night City, even if all the Teleportation Scrolls in the game were fully loaded and sent to these two cities, the servers of the two cities would still be able to withstand it.
Even so, the final decision was to limit the number of Teleportation Scrolls. The reason was that the staff in charge of the calculation later discovered that although there was no problem with the servers, there was a big problem with the size of the main cities. If all the above teleportation was completed, with a considerable number of players migrating on foot, and with everyone gathering in the main cities, the main cities of Cloud City and Moonlit Night City would not be able to accommodate such a large number of people. It was simply an enlarged version of the previous dungeon problem, although this time it wouldn't cause any data collapse.
"If that's the case, isn't it unnecessary to have eleven servers in parallel in a main city?" Someone questioned.
"Just in case, there's more servers to ensure the quality!" Someone said.
"But …"
"No buts, it's the boss's intention to use all ten servers."
Therefore, the person who said 'but' immediately shut up.
"What's the situation in the two cities now?" The big boss of the parallel world sat in his office, looking at the white sky outside the window and asking his subordinates. He didn't rest much that night, and could be considered a very dedicated boss. This matter wasn't too big of a deal, and it didn't really require him, the highest decision maker, to personally command the situation.
"The situation of the network in the two cities is stable, and the emotions of the players are also relatively stable," the subordinate reported.
"What about the very overpowered people?" The guild that could be remembered by the big boss of the game company was very overpowered, and it was already making history.
"They … are all offline." At this time, the subordinate held back his tears. He was one of the people who was very dissatisfied with the overpowered people who created big trouble and then lived happily in the world.
"These troublesome people …" The big boss sighed.
"Delete them …" the subordinate couldn't help but say.
Of course, the big boss knew that he was just being impulsive and joking, so he just laughed it off. He turned back and looked outside the window. "It's morning."
"It's probably time for those guys to come online!" The subordinate's tone was that of a "bear coming out of its cave".
"Another lively day!" The big boss sighed.
Did the overpowered people come online? The answer was no. Although they went offline earlier than usual, it was still after midnight. How could they come online at dawn? However, many of the players who stayed up all night couldn't take it anymore, and the studios that stayed up all night were also very tired. The players went offline, afraid that all their hard work would go to waste. The workers had already solved the problem and could rest, but they couldn't bear to miss this scene. Everyone was thinking, "Bastard, when are we going to come online?"
The overpowered people didn't come online, but the core members of the overpowered people were discussing how to start throwing equipment today. Communication was everywhere, and it didn't have to be in the game.
"The direction of the forum has completely changed. No one mentioned anything about us and Ying Qi's studio for the entire night. They were all talking about us throwing equipment." Brother You was very happy. Only now did he realize how sharp the Han Family Young Master's move was. The one who was more depressed about this was Mudo Mudo. They wanted to slowly release this more eye-catching topic, but in the end, it was exposed by the overpowered people.
"What are we going to do today?" Brother You asked.
"Throw equipment in both cities at once. Old Yun, you can bring some people over to Moonlit Night City. You guys are more familiar with it." Han Family Young Master said.
"No problem." Yun Zhongmu nodded.
"Leave Cloud City to us. We'll do it at the same time. We'll throw equipment once an hour. There's no need to make an announcement. We'll let the players discover the pattern. Twenty-five people from each city will throw one item at a time. I did a rough calculation. It'll start at noon, and it'll be lively until the peak at night. When it's the peak, we'll throw out everything we have." Han Family Young Master said.
"Why don't we throw it all at once?" Someone asked.
"If we throw it too quickly, some people will feel like we didn't throw it at all. If we continue for a bit longer, then people will know that this has been going on for a long time. When we're done, we'll make an announcement on the forums." Han Family Young Master said.
"Ying Qi's people will probably cause trouble right?" Brother You was worried.
"Cause trouble? How can he cause trouble? But remember, the people in charge of throwing equipment shouldn't wear their guild badges. It's best if they cover their faces. We can't rule out the possibility that some people will kill us and steal our equipment. "Han Family Young Master said.
"I'm just worried that Ying Qi will send people to do the same!" Brother You said.
"Even I don't know where to throw the equipment. Do you think Ying Qi's people will know?" Han Family Young Master said.
"What if … …"
"What if? Why don't you worry about people killing us and stealing our equipment? How about it, do you still have the guts to throw it? "Han Family Young Master asked.
"F * ck, of course I do." It was necessary to be stubborn, but after saying this, Brother You still felt a bit guilty.
In the end, there was still Yutian Shenming's unreliable consolation: "Don't worry Brother You. Even if you die, the equipment might not drop! Even if it does, you've achieved your goal of throwing equipment. "
Brother You cried for a long time before he came back to his senses and said, "I think the official announcement on the mail system seems to be a restriction on us."
Han Family Young Master easily saw through this problem: "If the mail is controlled, then the players in Far Away City won't be able to get teleportation scrolls. Therefore, the number of people will be effectively controlled."
"That's good. If there are so many people that we can't even move, then what's the point of doing anything?" Unscathed In Battle said.
Then, everyone discussed some small details. Then … … they shamelessly went back to sleep and waited for the afternoon to officially start work.
The people who had stayed up all night had to suffer through another morning. Persevere, persevere, they kept telling themselves. It was already noon, wasn't this considered 'tomorrow'? Extremely overpowered people can't be too shameless!
Extremely overpowered people finally heard the cries of the crowd. Compared to most of the players in the game who didn't know anything, the game company suddenly became alert. This was because the news instantly spread: "Extremely overpowered people are online together!!"
"What are they going to do?" Everyone was already crowded in the monitoring room, but the monitoring room wasn't that big. In order to deal with this situation, they had to ask their boss for permission to do a live broadcast of the monitoring. This monitoring could be seen by any computer that was connected to the company's intranet. Even the company's higher-ups were sitting in the conference room and looking at the huge LCD screen.
In the game, the first to know were obviously the players who had online friends. They all chose to stay silent. At this time, the two main cities in Cloud Moon and Night Cloud couldn't be any more crowded. Everyone knew the reason why there were so many people, so everyone around them looked like competitors. After a night of purging, the players in the two main cities had basically eliminated the bad habit of littering. Wasn't littering confusing the public at such a sensitive time? Moreover, it was the public opinion of the entire city. There was no room for discussion.
Extremely overpowered players who came online at the various revival points sneakily removed their badges, masked their faces, and blended into the crowd. Then, they moved towards the guild stronghold.
This stronghold had never been exposed, otherwise, it would have been guarded by all the players. Everyone arrived one by one, smoothly arriving one by one and entering the house to collect the goods. After that, it was completely up to their own will as to where to throw the equipment.
What if someone took something and couldn't bear to throw it away? Han Family Young Master had already thought about this. The distribution of resources was very particular. For people like Sword Demon, he could do as he pleased. For people like Yutian Shenming Unscathed In Battle, who were extremely suspicious, they didn't even have the right to get equipment to throw. They could only throw scrolls, which were definitely not of their own class. Moreover, the two of them might even form a gang to commit crimes. As a result, Yutian Shenming couldn't even get warrior items from Unscathed In Battle. Similarly, Unscathed In Battle couldn't get archer items either.
And no one else knew what each person took. If they tried to find out, they would become the target of suspicion.
In this regard, Drifting's treatment was the same as Yutian Shenming Unscathed In Battle. Yutian Shenming's promotion couldn't be ignored for him to receive this kind of treatment. When this guy realized that something was wrong, he immediately shouted. Moreover, he never hid his disdain and suspicion for Drifting in his heart. Under everyone's gaze, Drifting had to show that he didn't care. Therefore, Han Family Young Master smiled and indifferently gave him the same treatment. Brother You and the others muttered to themselves. They thought that Han Family Young Master might have already expected this. He guessed that Yutian Shenming would definitely cause trouble for Drifting, so he took the opportunity to suppress Drifting as well.
Everyone received their items and immediately prepared to leave. Han Family Young Master originally wanted to contact Nitrite Radical to replenish a batch of Teleportation Scrolls, but in the end, he received news that they were out of stock. This surprised Han Family Young Master. If they were out of stock, he believed that he had bought them out. Then, Nitrite Radical must have told him when the stock was out. Was it because of this incident that they were suddenly out of stock? But because of the problem with the mailbox, the trading volume of Teleportation Scrolls should be limited …
"Because of this?" Han Family Young Master and Nitrite Radical continued their conversation without leaving any evidence.
"More or less," Nitrite Radical replied.
"More or less," Han Family Young Master muttered these three words and more or less understood. Then, they could only search for all the scrolls they had and give them to everyone in case of emergencies. However, the most obvious problem was that Yun Zhongmu and the others couldn't directly fly to Moonlit Night City.
"You guys throw them first. We'll hurry over," Yun Zhongmu said.
"Let's wait together. You guys can go now," Han Family Young Master said.
The time to throw the equipment had to be pushed back. Yun Zhongmu and the others had a smooth journey to Moonlit Night City. The moment they stepped through the city gates, they immediately sent a message to the people in Cloud City.
"Okay, now check your watch," Han Family Young Master said.
"Come on, you!" The crowd jeered.
"Go find a place for yourselves. We'll throw them out in 15 minutes!" With this message, the equipment throwing operation officially began.
Although everyone wanted to throw the equipment in a secluded place for the players to search for, the system didn't give them the chance to play this game. In the end, they could only walk to the streets and catch people off guard.
"Fifteen minutes countdown begins. Ten, nine, eight … … three, two, one, throw!!! "
"Ah!!!" Cries of surprise followed the word "throw". In the next second, all fifty locations in Cloud City and Moonlit Night City exploded. Everyone had their own preferences. Some threw them into the sky, some threw them on the ground, and some pretended to crouch down and quietly put them on the ground.
But no matter what, in front of so many eyes, not a single item was thrown without being noticed. However, after this happened, three players immediately slapped themselves in the face. The other party threw the equipment mysteriously. Originally, they could have been the only ones to notice, but the three of them all cried out in surprise like idiots. As a result, they were instantly drowned out by the crowd.
