Bonus for 1600 PS, next bonus at 1800 PS. Also, I'll be sharing so philosophical quotes once in a while, found online and refined by yours truly.
You can drop yours. If I find it profound and philosophical enough, I'll post it in a chapter xD
....
If you don't even feel like doing dailies, it's ti to let it go. Leave the gacha before the gacha leaves you.
~Sun Tzu
...
"Was that sothing I shouldn't have asked?"
Carl noticed the slightly silent atmosphere among the players.
Thinking about it carefully, if the waifu he had known in a ga for several years suddenly lost part of her mory, or was no longer even the sa person as before...
For most players, that experience would be terrifying enough to leave psychological trauma, right?
Carl glanced across the players present, whose faces had all gone dark. Most of them had probably experienced that kind of pain.
"It's fine. I don't really mind."
Kyo still had a gentle, lazy smile on his face as he spoke.
"Because of that, I no longer pour too much emotion into any NPC. It's just playing gas. As long as the ga is fun, that's enough."
Why did that sound to Carl like... a death flag before soone got emotionally shattered?
"..."
Carl did not say anything, but Kyo's words had clearly provoked so of the other players present.
"Must be nice. If I could also stop treating those NPCs like real people, I could waste my ga ti as casually as you do."
The person who spoke was a rare top-tier female player. Her ID was also normal, called Crimson Night.
She was the Guild Master of Navigator. Carl checked the related information on this guild.
He discovered that Navigator was a guild made up of players who took gas seriously.
This guild would even save unimportant civilian NPCs when certain disaster events happened in the ga.
And this Guild Master gave off a sharp aura from head to toe.
Her wine-red long hair and sharp gaze stared straight at Kyo, as if she had long been displeased with his lazy attitude.
"You can't put it that way. I also have an NPC I support in Oath."
Kyo suddenly switched into elite salesman mode and said,
"That's also why I ca this ti. I'm inviting all of you to stop score grinding and co support Carl Agata with !"
"I think you've all seen quite a few posts about people playing Oath Cards on the Oath leaks board. That's the ga Carl made. Now Carl has made a brand-new ga, and it supports online battles! If you're interested... do you want to co try it with ?"
As a result, Kyo's sowhat abrupt recomndation made everyone present feel... absolutely nothing. They did not even feel like laughing.
"I have seen posts related to Oath Cards, but Kyo... Oath's Version 1.1 update is in four days, and the first Extre Abyss leaderboard will settle then."
Ryan scratched his head sowhat helplessly and said, "Whoever takes first place on the first Extre Abyss leaderboard will gain a wave of huge popularity. Recruiting new mbers will also beco easier after that."
This was also why every ga guild present was fighting over the Extre Abyss leaderboard. It was to recruit new mbers.
And they were not recruiting new mbers simply for fun, prestige, or reasons like that.
Combined with their inexplicable defeat against the Calamity Virus in the previous ga.
Every major guild had developed sothing of a psychological shadow, so after arriving in Oath, they were all going all out to recruit troops and expand their forces.
Perhaps... even if they recruited more forces, the Calamity Virus could not be eliminated through this kind of high-pressure and boring combat. Instead, it might further increase the Calamity Virus's power.
Carl looked at these players running themselves ragged for the Extre Abyss rankings, grinding scores until their hair was about to fall out.
So Carl could only cough softly. This was the signal Carl and Kyo had agreed on.
The signal to execute Plan B.
It could also be considered Carl giving Kyo and these players a choice.
Kyo also let out a long sigh. There was nothing wrong with top players pursuing the strongest ranking. That was also part of the fun of gas.
In other words... Kyo could also choose to join the battle for first place in Oath Version 1.0's Extre Abyss!
"Looks like none of you are interested? Then I'll give you a big gift."
"The new ga seems to support eight-player battles in total. Among the people here right now, whoever wins first place in this eight-player match."
"Then I will unconditionally help the first-place player's guild take first place on the Extre Abyss rankings! Team rankings guaranteed. Solo rankings, I'll do my best."
Kyo's words sounded extrely arrogant.
The major guilds did indeed have quite a few top players who could rival Kyo.
But that was only sothing they claid.
Kyo's strength was like John Wick.
In the movie, everyone knew John Wick was the strongest assassin, but no one believed he was really as terrifying as the rumors said.
Then... everyone who did not believe it died.
When Kyo announced that he was really joining the battle for first place on the Extre Abyss leaderboard, it instantly caused an uproar.
The solo leaderboard might still have a tiny bit of uncertainty.
But for the team leaderboard, whichever guild Kyo joined could basically secure first place.
Because on the team leaderboard, every major guild was basically made up of one T0-level expert carrying three T1-level experts.
The strongest guilds might have two T0-level experts.
As for Kyo, he was the kind of person where no one present dared to guarantee a fifty-fifty win rate against him in PvP. Even a sixty-forty win rate was sothing only a small number of people dared to say out loud.
Ryan, the Vice Guild Master of Crimson Sigil, was the first to state his position. He also let out a strange sigh.
"Hah... so you're pulling this move, huh? Fine. Playing one ga in exchange for freeloading such a huge order from you, I'll go with you once, okay?"
Crimson Night, the Guild Master of Navigator, seed very pleased to see these changes in Kyo through her sharp gaze.
So she withdrew her previous aggressive attitude and followed along.
"Looking at the current leaderboard situation, there probably won't be any major changes. I don't mind playing one round with you."
So other guild representatives present saw these two major guilds state their positions, and they also decided to go with Kyo.
That's right! If there was a top-tier carry to freeload, why not freeload him?
In any case, it was just one match of a small battle ga that would take half an hour to an hour at most.
But there were ten guilds present, and only six signed up in the end.
"Boring. In the end, you people just don't have confidence in your own strength. Our Do Alliance won't get involved in this."
"Anyway, we're firmly sitting in the top three on the leaderboard right now. I don't think adding one wild card will change anything."
The Guild Master of Do Alliance said directly.
Along with him, he also took away three other guilds present.
Do Alliance was currently the strongest guild in Elysium, whether in terms of influence or average strength.
They did indeed have the qualifications to ignore a wild card like Kyo.
"Those guys really don't care about friendship at all. Anyway, following you to play one mini-ga won't delay much. Kyo, lead the way."
Ryan said freely.
The remaining guild representatives had the sa thoughts as Ryan.
At first, they only thought it was just a mini-ga made by a ga NPC. Playing one round to experience it would not hurt.
It was not like they would end up playing so much that they would not even want to do Version 1.1's main story, right?
(To be continued.)
