553 The end of the game
the moment he typed on the keyboard, zhao xu had already thought about what might happen next countless times.
However, he was still at a loss at this moment.
It was like a huge secret that had been hidden for many years, and it was finally time to reveal it.
This time, the traffic on his post had decreased a lot even though it was late at night.
but more than half of the users on the forum were following zhao xu’s account, and those who were still online all received this special notification.
“What’s this?”
“You’re joking, right?”
“Isn’t this a little too exaggerated?”
April Fool’s Day has already been three months.
“Someone hacked into my account?”
“An undercover agent from TC? Was he actually an internal employee? You’ve been running this account for half a year just for this?”
op, your behavior might cause panic. If it’s serious, you might even be convicted.
” i can’t imagine that the god i’ve always respected would do such a thing. is he joking with everyone? ”
but it’s strange. The East City government has a million forum coins, and they just spent it all in one day just for a joke? ”
I suspected that the three accounts were one, but I didn’t expect that the moment the announcement was made, it would be something like this.
“I’m not crazy, but the players have gone crazy.”
For a moment, the first reaction of the entire post was disbelief.
Even if the person sitting across from them was the ” God player ” zhongxia, who had attracted the attention of countless players in the past six months and was known as the number one player in the game.
Even if the other party predicted an earthquake, the players would not hesitate to run out of their homes.
But transmigrating and registering an account with 28 talent points, wasn’t that a bit too much?
could it be that he had gone crazy and was really brainwashed by the npcs in the game?
Zhao Xu had set up an automatic distribution mode in his post. As long as he replied, he could get 100 forum coins, which was about one RMB on the black market.
Zhao Xu had used all the tips he had received over the past six months, as well as the two million forum coins that he had painstakingly accumulated from gambling, which was about 20000 Yuan, to spend it all in one day.
Even if it was a joke, it was expensive enough.
Not to mention whether the players believed it or not, there were many players who replied to receive the 100 forum coins.
although most of them only said useless words like ” top, ” ” thank you, op, ” ” op, you’re a good person, ” it ensured that this ” post ” would always remain at the top of the forum.
With such popularity, it was guaranteed that everyone who logged on to the forum on the last day of June would see the news.
what exactly happened? ”
When he woke up the next morning, Zhang Qi rubbed his eyes and looked at the chaotic forum. He could not help but shake his head.
Not to mention, all of his QQ groups had exploded, and they were all talking about the same topic.
It was just that there was less recognition and more condemnation. They all suspected that zhongxia had gone crazy to come up with such a trick.
once this kind of thing was out of the circle, it would only make the circle of gamers even worse.
At the same time, on the forums, countless players were posting and participating in the debate, analyzing the reason why “East city’s founding,””starry sky’s reflection,” and “Midsummer” made such a joke.
this was because some players had already seen the lord’s notice posted on the ‘notice board’ in front of the town hall of starfall town. it announced that the ‘east city establishment’ in the player forum was zhongxia himself.
however, there were also a small number of players who, based on dongcheng ling’s argument, began to advise other players to quickly persuade their family members to register and log in to the game.
These ” forum followers ” of Zhao Xu started to post the purchase records of the activation codes, saying that they were going to let their parents and relatives register an account in the game first.
There were even some enthusiastic rich players who directly gave them out for free.
Many people even advised him that if he really didn’t believe it, he could just register to try the game at 11 O ‘clock.
If it really didn’t happen at 12 o ‘clock, he could just apply for a refund.
No matter what, Zhao Xu had managed to gain quite a bit of popularity through the early stages of the game and his frequent posts in the past six months.
even if he wanted to cut leeks from the fan circle, release a guide link to one of his treasure stores, and sell some game merchandise at a high price, there would still be a lot of fans responding.
Usually, the more you cut, the less the starch noodles would be, but the first cut would always be fruitful.
Therefore, many fans of Dongcheng Shen and zhongxia responded with the mentality that they could just use it as their tuition fees.
However, the 299 points in the game was not a difficult task. The difficult part was to persuade friends and family to enter the game’s registration interface until the task was completed.
On the 30th of June, not only was the forum in chaos, but some players ‘families were also in a mess.
One of the fathers immediately registered an account on the forum and cursed at this behavior.
she said that her daughter had asked for money to make the whole family register a game account as soon as she came back, and she cursed that this was a new way of cutting leeks and that it had deceived the incapable underaged girls.
This also caused the forum administrator to step in and ban a bunch of ” strategy guides ” on how to trick their family members to register accounts.
Even some internet celebrities were paying attention to the scene in the recently popular Arthur. Many internet celebrities and internet celebrities had even started organizing materials and were waiting to post it at night.
Even lawyer v started to discuss what kind of criminal law his behavior would involve.
Zhao Xu quietly looked at the keywords ” East City building “, ” transmigration “, and ” Arthur ” on the trending Searches, and he quietly put down the coffee cup in his hand.
With the ” out of the circle ” effect brought by the media, the ” rumor ” that everyone would transmigrate to Arthur at midnight tonight slowly made some people who had contact with the internet come into contact with this ” News “.
zhao xu also sent the same message to his family and friends group. he even called his parents.
Now that Zhao Xu had reached the fifth ring, he actually didn’t care as much about an account with 28 points.
If she was really someone close to him, he would naturally have a way to turn the tide.
The main thing was that he could save one person, but he couldn’t save everyone.
This was the reason why he took such a huge risk to post a thread to get people to register an account in the game first.
as the topic of the media continued to burn, it might be back to him in two or three days.
After such a huge commotion, it was not impossible for him to be dug out again.
However, at that time, everyone would have already transmigrated, so it naturally didn’t matter.
This was also the reason why he had to suppress the whistle.
Time passed by just like that.
Zhang Qi, who was in the dormitory, did not believe it at first. However, he still thought that it might be true and called his parents to tell them about it. In the end, he was scolded by them.
On the other hand, a few students who didn’t usually play games were convinced by everyone and registered an account.
There was no doubt that Zhao Xu had caused quite a stir, but it wasn’t big enough. The people who were affected still didn’t have any real impact.
The passers-by who saw Arthur’s gossip in the new media only laughed and scolded him for playing too much.
as for liu hanqiang, who was in the dormitory, he turned around and left with a snort of contempt.
Zhao Xu didn’t say a word. It was as if he was just a passer-by. He just knocked on the table in front of his desk and pondered what was going to happen next.
They slowly waited for the final verdict.
His focus was no longer on the transmigration, but the survival of mankind after the transmigration.
During this period, he turned his head several times to look at the sky outside, recalling a scene from his previous life.
Less than a minute after the news of the sudden meteor shower was broadcasted on the TV, the city’s air defense alarm was triggered. All the students in the campus gathered on the balcony and looked at the Golden meteors that streaked across the sky.
The entire earth was hit by a meteor shower from all directions. Countless astronomers could not believe it and could only call it an incredible event.
This was because everything that had happened was completely beyond common sense, and it had shattered the entire monitoring system of the astronomical world.
These meteors seemed to have suddenly appeared near the moon’s orbit and were heading straight for the earth.
Zhao Xu still remembered that in less than a few minutes, these gigantic fireballs had been approaching the ground and were now within sight.
at a distance that could destroy their entire area in less than ten seconds, the meteorite inexplicably burst out with a seven-colored glazed light and instantly harvested everyone’s souls.
when everyone regained their consciousness after a long time, it was as if they were on arthur again.
d * mn, Dongcheng Ling said that she’ll be giving out critical evidence at eight o ‘clock tonight. What exactly is it? ”
at this moment, zhang qi could feel the tension in the players ‘atmosphere. the debate on the forum had even made some of the top players jump out to speak.
There were those who opposed and those who supported, including them. They all sensed that Arthur’s ” realness ” was extraordinary.
However, it was not easy to convince people that ” Arthur really exists ” and ” earth is about to transmigrate “.
Zhang Qi, who had been online for a long time to complete his mission, did not log in today. Instead, he was focused on the forum and looking for the latest news.
Slowly, the players tried to verify the account’s claim and received different ‘responses’.
however, no matter what happened in the game, it couldn’t be used as decisive evidence.
“I’m finished.” suddenly, zhang qi shouted.
“What’s wrong?” Chen Sinan also felt that the atmosphere was not right. He did not go to the sacred Warrior Training today. He was also browsing the forum and was surprised by Zhang Qi’s fuss.
TC has made an announcement saying that none of this was planned by them. They stated that the game content was completely generated by the latest AI. Although the effects were beyond expectations, the game was essentially a large-scale test they conducted to train AI. as for the so-called “transmigration incident,” they know nothing about the cause of it and think it’s nonsense. they reserve the right to sue for slander.”
At the end of the day, this farce finally received a fatal blow at six O ‘clock, just before the general public got off work.
But Zhao Xu just laughed to himself and didn’t really care.
It was naturally a good thing that one of them listened to him, registered a game account, and got the chance to get 28 points.
however, it did not mean that the non-player earthlings had no hope at all.
There were also people who entered the system, but because of their outstanding talent, they were evaluated to have 28 or even 32 talent points.
All he wanted to do was to leave behind more seeds of hope so that the forces on earth could preserve more of their strength for the initial survival period and the subsequent “demon-sealing war.”
He would try to fill up 60 million players as much as possible. This was only 1% of his strength reserve.
Slowly, the tide on the forum began to change.
The suspicion towards “East City Lord” was also increasing day by day, and the number of supporters in the post began to evolve from seven to three to nine to one, with suspicion and rejection taking up 90%.
as for the remaining 10%, there were many people trying to persuade him.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the account itself was once famous for its id. Midsummer “and” starry sky reflection “had enough prestige, the torrent of attacks would have already washed over the forum.
However, just as it was about to be eight o ‘clock, Zhao Xu quietly walked out to the balcony, took out his phone, and gently typed out the line of text that had once made Wang Ningwei tremble.
the sky is filled with a rain of fire. The crystal wall barrier will be broken through, and Arthur will welcome billions of new people.
As for the rest, Zhao Xu only added a simple note.
“As long as everyone reads this to the people around you, you will understand what I mean.”
It was useless to say anything more. Everything could only be proven by the power of this prophecy.
After saying that, he gently pressed the ‘send’ button.
“argh! Dongcheng God, also known as zhongxia, posted!” Suddenly, Zhang Qi shouted.
Suddenly, the entire dormitory building was in an uproar, and the shouts rose and fell in response.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that there were at least a million players in the game browsing the forums, waiting for Zhao Xu’s latest reply.
“Why is it mojibake?” Then, Zhang Qi immediately let out a wail.
Zhao Xu’s mind suddenly jolted and he took out his phone.
the post that he had posted, which was conveniently at the top, had a prophecy in the title that was completely garbled.
The seven great prophecies could not be written down.
these words rang out in zhao xu’s heart again.
However, he immediately thought of a solution.
He could use voice chat.
he could spread his voice, and then zhang qi and the others would spread it to their friends and family through the phone. in an instant, this torrent could sweep across the entire earth.
At that time, they would have to bet on who would be the fastest to make it to the 60 million limited quota.
zhao xu sighed and walked over to zhang qi. he said in a low voice, ” “Zhang Qi.”
“f * ck!”
However, Zhang Qi was faster than him and cursed.
Zhang Qi’s finger trembled as he pointed at the latest announcement on the screen.
brother Xu, TC said that Arthur’s initial artificial intelligence data collection has been completed, and the current goal has been reached. “We’re deeply sorry for the social turmoil caused by the ‘time-travel rumors’. Therefore, company TC has decided to refund all accounts registered since the game’s launch, and the game will be suspended indefinitely.”
Then, Zhang Qi turned around and looked at Zhao Xu in disbelief and sadness.
“The game of Arthur is over.”
