Chapter 197 Responses from All Sides 1 (1/2)
The male host changed the topic. ”Recently, an event has raised wide discussion among the players. The NPCs in the game have expressed extreme curiosity over the unique characteristics of players. Every planet has witnessed different reactions and labelled this phenomenon differently, such as Chosen Ones, Inhumans, Genius Phenomenon, which was very exciting and surprising. It's like NPCs have their individual minds and are not as rigid as NPCs in other games.”
”If every NPC has an individual mind of their own, the amount of computation needed will be extremely high, but Galaxy is using the latest light speed computers. Its limit is unknown,” the female host said.
Players wrote their speculations in the comments. The fact that NPCs seemingly had their own intelligence and interacted as freely as a person would in the real world was very new and exciting.
The hosts read from their scripts. They talked about the situations on various planets and made some speculations.
From the players' perspective, they only knew the NPCs attitude toward them and not the responses from the organizations, but Han Xiao did. Recently, the information on the Dark Net had almost all been about the contact with Inhumans. The rapid increase in the number of players had given a lot of pressure to the organizations.
All the organizations agreed that, if the number of Inhumans grew continuously without a limit, it would bring endless potential dangers and subversively impact the current social construct, but they could not find a way to suppress that growth at all.
Luckily, Inhumans were weak and easy to control.
The organizations in Planet Aquamarine had yet to notice that the strength of players was growing at a very fast pace. Before they were LV 20, their power was still in the category of normal humans.
Han Xiao shook his head. When the level of the players is high, these organizations are going to be really shocked.
The topic of the Inhuman Phenomenon had ended. The male host said, ”… we have invited Li Ge to join us today. Good to see you, Li Ge.”
Li Ge, the god tier player that ranked second in China, sat between the hosts with a smile on his face.
Galaxy Times frequently invited highly skilled players for an interview and discussion, so the female host asked Li Ge what his view on the Inhuman Phenomenon was.
”I think this is part of the game's plot, to give the players a feeling that it is real. When I was playing, I kept having the misconceptions that I was in a real world, and I think that is what the developers want us to experience. As a unique character in a real world, everything that occurs required improvisation, and there will almost never be any repeated events. It's all new and exciting. I have high hopes for what Galaxy can achieve in the future.”
”Talking about the future of the game,” the male host said, ”our channel has received first-hand news that the international esports association has confirmed that they will be hosting the first ever pro league, and they have also informed the countries to host competitions. What is your view on this?”
”I would say that it means I have yet to lose my job.” Li Ge laughed. ”On a serious note, strong esports clubs have all stepped into Galaxy. They will definitely be preparing for it, and I think it will be a great fight. Hopefully, I can lead China to a good result.”
The comments exploded again. The players were very excited about the creation of pro leagues. It was going to be a big event. There were also other comments like ”Li Ge is so handsome!” and ”Love you hubby” that came from the female fans.
”The competition has been established, and pro players will have to quickly prepare for it. Do you have any advice or tips that you can share with us?
Li Ge thought for a while and said, ”We pro players have to distribute the experience points logically in our abilities in a way that suits our strengths best. Therefore, we stick to a steady pace and won't rush our levels so that we can familiarize ourselves with the controls in every level and improve our skills, which is why there are almost no pro players in the level leaderboards. Oh, there are a few from Japan. Well, as you know, they like to show off,” he mocked lightly.
”We pro players will grab every opportunity to become stronger. Black Phantom in our Planet Aquamarine has become very famous recently. I think I'm going to try my luck too… but that's if he returns to the Southern Continent.” Li Ge sighed.
The rest of the show was mostly chitchat.
After he watched finish the show, Han Xiao thought, Pro leagues are going to start soon. All the clubs will be preparing themselves and not wasting any time. My customers should be increasing.
Li Ge—a god-tiered player that ranked second in China, someone whose status was so much higher than Han Xiao in his previous life that Han Xiao was not even qualified enough to be in contact with him—had said that he would come to find him.
But now, Han Xiao had the power to choose if he wanted him to be one of his spare tires.
Li Ge… I'll have to think about it.
