Chapter 1970: U: Beyond the Grand Event (End)

And other teams also encountered situations similar to the team Shiler was in. Either there were familiar team members who left the team to join other teams to explore because of other universes later, or there were still businesses being discussed, and knowledge and technology being exchanged. If you kick them out now, who would be happy?

There were also some paranoid patients who couldn't help but think: the organizer brought them here but didn't set very strict rules, but let them communicate friendly. Can this be done without paying any price? Will there be any traps waiting for them later? Will the difficulty suddenly increase? Will it cause any harm to their original universe?

That's right, this kind of question has been asked countless times in the hearts of various Batmen, and some even voiced it. Owen heard it very clearly.

Simply put, it's an amusement park without an entrance fee. People will inevitably worry about the quality and safety of the facilities. But if the entrance fee is one or two hundred yuan, although some people will feel it's expensive and unwilling to play, the user group screened out wouldn't be able to provide the consumption that allows the amusement park to make a profit anyway.

On the contrary, the group of people who can afford the one or two hundred yuan entrance fee can't possibly spend nothing in the amusement park. Perhaps one person's consumption in the park is worth several times the entrance fee.

In terms of Battleworld, anyone with a little vision can realize how worthwhile it is to pay a little price to communicate with people from parallel universes. And those who can't realize this and are unwilling to pay the entrance fee are destined not to have any wonderful performance in the game, and can neither provide the fun the organizer needs nor provide useful resources to other participants.

Every circle requires a ticket; this ensures relative equality among members and prevents anyone from taking advantage of others. If the gap in wealth and intelligence is too large, leading to a mismatch between effort and reward or someone purely freeloading, it will inevitably end in an unhappy breakup.

Although he had experienced it many times, Stark still covered his forehead and said, "So you anticipated this situation from the very beginning?"

"Can only be considered a double insurance," Shiler shrugged and said, "Actually, I didn't expect it to be so fast. I thought I could have fun for a few more days."

"But you still wanted to charge from the very beginning." Natasha hit the nail on the head.

"This is called optimizing human resource allocation, understand?" Shiler argued, "We are a high-level group and only accept members who bring their own resources."

"Sounds like that set of Wall Street."

"What are you talking about? Now it's this set of the Sanctum Sanctorum."

"Alright, but how do you plan to charge?" Lucifer asked again, "The currencies between universes aren't common, right? Even if you take the money back, you can't use it. Besides, some people have talent but don't have that much money. For example, that kid named Peter Parker. With him, almost every game comes with a commentary. I still like him quite a bit."

"Of course, you can also exchange point cards with resources or technology. However, how much can be exchanged needs a standard. We need to discuss and discuss this standard."

The next morning, all the contestants in the camp heard the organizer's broadcast from the round platform.

"Please note, all duelists, Battleworld is expected to undergo a two-hour update and maintenance. The maintenance time is from 7:00 to 9:00 AM New Earth time in Battleworld.

During this period, all duelists cannot participate in games. Games already in progress are not affected. You cannot participate repeatedly during the closing time.

"The expected update content is as follows:

The Battleworld New Earth public beta version is coming with a bang. There will be brand-new game types to choose from. Game screening items have been heavily optimized, and matching conditions will be more precise and user-friendly.

The Battleworld public beta adopts a point redemption game duration system. Specific content can be viewed in the mall interface description.

In addition, there are various in-game and out-of-game option optimizations, visual upgrades, and more refined customer service consultation channels provided.

Thank you for your long-term support for Battleworld. We will strive for excellence and provide you with a better gaming experience.

For specific details on this update, please check the text version at the terminal after the update is complete. Thank you."

Due to the need for game viewing, Owen and Lucifer didn't choose superheroes from too distant eras. Most of the superheroes lived in the electronic information age. At most, some were in the starting stage, and some were in the developed stage.

Most people have a certain understanding of things like electronic games. Even Batman once developed a virtual battle system used to simulate the crime situation in Gotham.

Most people treat Battleworld as a large-scale holographic game. As soon as they heard this update announcement, they knew that the game version must have changed, and there would be some new functions launched one after another.

In fact, the previous theft system couldn't be considered a leak, it was just a bit sloppy compared to such a big movement, just like a supercomputer hardware carrying an 8-bit system, and it was like working hard to build a rocket just to hear a sound, which felt strange.

So as soon as this update announcement came out, everyone was looking forward to what better and newer functions would come out. As a result, after the update was completed and the detailed explanation came out, everyone was dumbfounded.

You just updated an in-app purchase system?

And compared to this minimalist version of the game operating system and visual design, isn't this mall a bit too advanced?

Everyone found that this mall interface couldn't be called complex and numerous; it could simply be called dazzling and eye-dazzling, and it even came with extremely advanced resource detection functions.

Simply put, you upload the overview of a technology or a resource, and the other party can automatically estimate the price and exchange it into points for you to buy game duration.

Suddenly, praises were heard one after another in the camp. All contestants wanted to know which smart person arranged the update. If I knew the name, I would definitely praise him well.

But smart people also know that there is no free lunch in the world. And besides, who else could arrange the update?

Who is flipping clouds and raining, controlling this world? Thinking it over, isn't it still that damn planner?

They were more concerned about the rules of so-called technology and resources, and exchanging points. Although they knew that the planner didn't have the possibility of asking for a sky-high price, most people were relatively unsure about what they had in their hands.

And there was another serious problem. Most of the contestants came from Earth or near-Earth civilizations, and the technology trees that humans have pointed out over so many years are basically the same. Occasionally, there are some crooked ones, which are individual cases. In other words, the technology everyone masters is actually about the same.

Then if someone has already uploaded a technology, can I still exchange points if I upload it again? Is it that the later you upload, the more you lose?

So many people started to upload the technology they possessed impatiently, and the smarter ones realized that it clearly wouldn't be this kind of rule.

If the other party wants endless new technology, especially human technology, then their level of development must be inferior to humanity's. But could the mastermind who can pull so many people into a virtual game out of thin air have a lower level of civilization than humans who haven't even left their home planet?

Sure enough, after some exploration, it was discovered that duplicate technology can be exchanged for points, but a team can only exchange for a certain technology once. If the repetition rate of technology uploaded within the team exceeds 30%, it won't be exchanged. In other words, the exchange of technology is one-time.

But there is another possibility, that is, if I exchange new technology with other teams and then upload it from my side, it can still be exchanged for points, or if I invent a new technology, it can also be exchanged for points.

Batman immediately realized that the organizer was encouraging technological exchanges between various universes. Then Wonder Woman in their team discovered that magic technology could also be used, which meant they still had a large amount of magic technology that could be exchanged with others to exchange for points.

But this would have a problem, that is, when uploading technology, you need to go to a virtual space to reproduce it. If the reproduction is unsuccessful, it cannot be uploaded. In other words, if you want more points, you must master more technology, including magic technology.

Then Batman had to think: although Wonder Woman can use magic, the one with stronger learning ability in the team must be himself. So it is best for him to conduct technical exchanges and learn other teams' technology. But can the other two just watch?

Then they discovered that energy also counts as a resource and can be used to exchange for points. Although one unit doesn't exchange for much, as long as there is enough energy, it can also exchange for a lot of points.

Then where does the energy come from? Anyway, it definitely can't be replenished in this space. Superman can still bask in the sun to restore physical strength, but people like Wonder Woman who use magic and divine power are basically eating their old capital.

Then all the contestants discovered that the game actually opened online and offline channels. In other words, the contestants are no longer trapped in the game. If you don't want to play, you can leave at any time.

Seeing this, many contestants immediately wanted to leave. After all, no one is idle, and there are a bunch of broken things to deal with in reality. Although time doesn't pass, one day they have to return to reality.

But looking down, they discovered very attractive rules.

Simply put, every person participates in a game every day, and achieving random goals in the game can earn points. Points can not only be used to buy game duration but also for lucky draws, and the prize pool is the technology uploaded by others.

And the prize pool isn't fixed, but rotates with different types of technology. Maybe the prize pool of a certain week is magic technology, and maybe there is technology and resources needed by a certain civilization in the prize pool of a certain week. And if you don't go online at all that week and don't do tasks, then missing it is missing it, and you can only wait for a reprint.

And the organizer also drew a big cake at the end of the detailed explanation, showing that new functions such as point redemption for other universe tour group packages and friendship activities between universes might be opened in the future.

And these functions have a common significant feature, which is that they all need points. No money, don't play.

Seeing this, the contestants praised and complimented the organizer again.

But praise is praise, and one still has to play. Even for the Joker, there is a certain demand for innovating bomb technology.

What's more, the organizer also stated that points can be exchanged for local currency at a certain ratio, which can greatly alleviate the survival pressure of poor contestants.

It is conceivable that a group of excellent professional players will emerge before long, and all kinds of game-related forums and posts will emerge one after another.

Finally, this new Earth, which makes many people feel the vastness of the universe and the prosperity of life for the first time, will definitely change the fate of many people, make them meet more like-minded friends, and also encounter opponents who cherish each other.

And in the depths of the distant universe, an old hand wrote on paper with a quill pen:

"When we first left the cradle, a brand-new universe accepted us with joy, and we also embraced others who were equally young with joy, to discover infinite possibilities.

Some people experience new life perspectives, some see more partings and reunions, some leave behind an immortal legend, and I will truthfully record all the stories here.

I am the father of the story, and also the child of the story. I am... the God of Stories, Loki."
