Chapter 87: 87, First-person video sparks discussion 1

Translator: 549690339

Su Yu was unaware of the players’ discussions.

After using the “megaphone”, he logged out and prepared to sleep.

Although logging into the game with a helmet enables players to achieve a “light sleep” state, the brain remains in a high state of excitement throughout the game.

Therefore, every player still needs to ensure they get 5-7 hours of regular sleep every day. Otherwise, they might suffer from brain damage and end up like a certain unfortunate Snow Leopard who was forcibly kicked offline.

Phew—

Rising from the bed, Su Yu unconsciously stretched his body.

The power he had in the game manifested itself in his physical strength which had once again increased!

This feeling of increased strength greatly fascinated him.

He did a bit of exercise in the small living room, took a bath, and then prepared for bed.

But before going to sleep, Su Yu thought about the video he had recorded of the “8th quest of the Princess Questline” today.

“It would be better to upload the video to the internet before sleeping. During this time, the forum experts might be able to extract some information that I overlooked from the video.

With this in mind, Su Yu sat down in front of his computer.

He exported the video from the helmet and uploaded it to the official “First-Person View” video section.

The “First-Person View” video section is a paid video section.

According to information Su Yu obtained in his past life, this was a way for the “Game Supervisors of the Singer Civilization” to earn extra money.

But to talk about how the Supervisors make extra money, we’d have to start from the beginning of the Skuru invasion.

At the beginning of the Skuru invasion.

If all the spiritual energy contained in Blue Star at this point were divided into ten parts.

The Singer Civilization took away nine parts when they arrived, leaving one part as a “Spiritual Spring Eye” which was occupied by the Skuru.

Then, the Singer Civilization granted three parts of the obtained spiritual energy to a forsaken world and made the game “Evolution”.

The remaining six parts were of course the “service fee”.

Since there were no in-game recharge channels, the Game Supervisors of the Singer Civilization could not benefit from it. They only received minimal remuneration.

Neither could they ask for benefits from the Blue Star government. It was against the rules, and being caught would mean a death sentence.

So, the Supervisors played a clever game and added a “First-Person View” video feature to the game to earn some extra cash.

In this video section.

Players who upload videos can set their own prices, ranging from a minimum of 0.1 Flower Coin to a maximum of 100 Flower Coins.

At the same time, they can also set the profit division ratio, from a minimum of 20% to a maximum of 70%.

The higher the video quality, the less the demanded division ratio, and the more the website promotion resources available.

The Supervisors were making use of this method to earn some cash. With this small sum of money, they “fairly” exchanged spiritual energy with the Blue Star government.

Su Yu was quite clear about all these.

Without thinking, he directly set the video price to 0.6 Flower Coin and set the profit split ratio to the maximum 70%.

0.6 Flower Coin was the conventional price for each part of the mainline story in his previous life, Su Yu did not want to break it;

Setting the profit split ratio to 70% meant that the website would not allocate any promotional resources or recommendation spots to him. Unless someone directly searched for his personal account, they would not be able to see his videos.

However, Su Yu didn’t care.

Relying on his influence in the game, creating a forum post would give him a better effect than being featured on the website’s homepage. He wasn’t concerned about promotion.

After uploading the video.

Su Yu went to the forum to create a post, telling the players about his video, mentioning that the video was related to the main storyline, and invited players interested in the main storyline to watch it.

Although it was already 2 a.m., there were still many night owls chatting on the forum.

After seeing Su Yu’s post, hundreds of replies quickly appeared under the post.

“Nemesis is posting again! His last post was about [Green Pasture].” “Mainline story? What’s that?”

“You don’t know what a mainline story is? According to the scattered information leaked from the official website, the mainline story is the ultimate mission of each data pack! The best mission rewards are almost all in here!”

“Ultimate mission? No wonder he levels up so fast!”

“Let’s go and see!”

“Let’s check it out.”

Players flocked to the official video section, and the view count of Su Yu’s video gradually increased from zero to five or six hundred.

After noticing that the video’s price was set to 0.6 Flower Coin, many of the players quietly complained, “That’s steep.”

Most players currently charge the lowest price of 0.1 Flower Coin for their uploaded videos. Nemesis’s charge was considered high.

But, the players who could afford the helmet were not bothered by this price.

They proceeded to watch the video.

Once they entered the video, their perspective was attached to Su Yu as they followed him forward from his main point of view.

The majestic palace, the splendid hall, the luxurious entrance hall, the exquisitely carved columns…

The essence of Empire architecture gathered here, making it a feast for the eyes.

After entering the hall, lots of Empire influencers were seen either sitting or standing inside.

Xi Fan, the formidable top-tier warrior, who sat high on the throne, and the solemn-faced princess Alyssa…

All of these suddenly made the players feel that their 0.6 Flower Coins were well spent!

In the next 10 minutes, the princess and the ministers discussed military and political affairs and the matter of negotiating with the rebellious forces in Maple City.

In the last few seconds of the video, Kalet ran towards Su Yu and respectfully said, “Master Nemesis, the princess requests your presence!”

The screen went black at this moment.

After watching the video, the players all felt unsatisfied and immediately went to the forum to discuss it.

“Did you notice? At the end, that guard addressed Nemesis as ‘Master’ What kind of title is this?”

“I don’t know, but Nemesis’s charges are too high! It’s six times as much as others!”

“Be grateful, this is the mainline story. There’s only one such video.”

“From this video, we got a lot of key information, like the princess going to Maple City to negotiate with Kalet’s rebels.”

“Yes, there should be quite a few hidden tasks from here to Maple City.

Everyone, keep an eye out.”

“Can someone analyze what they were talking about during the political affairs part at the beginning? They were talking about ‘conscription’ and ‘recruitment’.

I didn’t understand at all what they were saying.”

“I know this. Feudal dynasties in early periods generally used conscription. Soldiers would voluntarily join the army to attain social mobility and to expand the borders. Their combat strength was very strong. For example, the early

Tang Dynasty and Han Dynasty.”

“After the decline of the dynasty, it would use recruitment, like in “Romance of the Three Kingdoms”, “An Lushan Rebellion”, “Iron-blooded Delivery”… It appears that the Goldfinch Dynasty has no soldiers to conscript and could only recruit civilians, implementing a ‘recruitment system’. The downfall of the Empire seems to be inevitable now.”

“How do you know so much?”

“Heh, honestly speaking, I’ve lived through all those dynasties.”

“Go away, stop joking!”

“What video are you guys talking about? Can I have a link?”

“Go to the official video section and search for the username ‘Nemesis’.’

No matter how you looked at it, this video started to trend in the forum..
