Chapter 7, there is no time to explain, quickly kill me
Xu Ercong chuckled mysteriously and said, "Although this GM is very clever, he absolutely cannot imagine..."
Xu Ercong nodded and said in a private message: "The reason I said I found Wang Dali displeasing and killed him is to demonstrate to the GM that my reason for killing Wang Dali was due to malicious PK between players, rather than exploiting loopholes"
Xu Ercong stopped the two individuals: "It is not yet possible to fully confirm my conjecture. We can only wait for Dali to be revived and examine the specific situation to determine whether this bug can be exploited."
I understand!
Xu Xiaofan could not help but exclaim that Xu Ercong was very clever; he skillfully avoided the act of exploiting loopholes for suicide and instead adopted a different approach to continue exploiting the loopholes
Xu Ercong collapsed to the ground, his soul's fire shattered
Upon hearing Xu Ercong's explanation, everyone couldn't help but suddenly realize and exclaimed: "As expected of Ercong! How is it that this mind of his is so exceptionally sharp."
Why am I the first
Xu Ercong smiled: "This setting is very humane, but it can also be anticipated that since there is no demotion penalty after player death, it will inevitably lead to a large number of players engaging in malicious PK against each other without any concerns."
In this small group, Xu Ercong plays the role of a strategist in every game that everyone experiences, and he lives up to expectations by consistently providing his partners with sound advice and analysis
Yes
... ...
Xu Xiaofan is looking forward to the changes that will occur when a large number of players flood into the God of Death's realm
Wang Dali was very resolute: "No, this method is not feasible. The GM of this game is too intelligent. I suspect that there are staff members supervising us, the beta testers, to prevent us from breaking the game's rules"
... ...
Wang Dali rolled his eyes, put down the knife, and complained: "Even if there were no normal death demotion penalties, this merely indicates a benefit setting that every player can enjoy. We do not have any special treatment; this does not constitute a game bug."
They must not be allowed to know the truth; only in this way can the players fight for me in the other world with greater abandon
What the hell
The people resting on the ground with their legs crossed looked up and saw Wang Dali rushing over in a fit of rage, brandishing a bone knife and roaring, exuding an aura of murderous intent
... ...
No one could have anticipated that Xu Ercong would suddenly attack Wang Dali, and with a single blow, he would be killed instantly
Alright, let us wait a moment
Now, only one more thing needs to be confirmed
What are we waiting for!
Indeed, not long after, everyone received a group message sent by Xu Ercong.
Although Xu Xiaofan also wanted to continue having the divine authority issue warnings and punitive measures to dissuade these individuals from their intentions to exploit loopholes, he reconsidered and decided against it
Therefore, I took the initiative to attack Dali and killed him
Wang Dali was taken aback, and after everyone watched him for a long time without making a move, they couldn't help but ask: "Dali, what’s wrong?"
This can be considered our trump card for a rapid upgrade
Wang Dali approached obediently, and the enormous skull gazed at Xu Ercong, the flame of curiosity flickering in the soul within the cranium
Xu Ercong! You must give me a reason!
The crowd was astonished, looking at Wang Dali and Xu Ercong in a state of confusion.
Xu Ercong stroked his chin and continued, "Whenever there is a bug, after extensive use, the GM will notice it, and it will soon be fixed due to game updates"
Yes
You might consider this: since GM has warned Dali in this manner, making demotion due to death a mandatory penalty, can we infer that a normal death will not result in demotion?
Shh
Er Cong, I will take revenge for this knife wound immediately
I ... ...
I tell you, without 30 days of life points as compensation, this matter will not be over
Xu Xiaofan indeed did not impose any penalties for player deaths, as the decline in players' strength also represented a reduction and loss of Xu Xiaofan's own power as the Grim Reaper
I have worked hard to reach level 3, am I really going to fall down like this
At that moment, the divine authority suddenly issued a new notification, capturing everyone's attention
Dali's curiosity was piqued as he looked at Xu Ercong, who waved at Dali and said, "Come here, get a little closer"
Xu Xiaofan, who was eavesdropping through divine means, could not help but nod in agreement
What is going on here
Wang Dali's bone knife fell to the ground. He had just run over and watched helplessly as his friends killed each other, one after another, dying right before his eyes
If Dali is resurrected and a demotion penalty occurs, it signifies an invalid bug, leaving no room for exploitation
What is this
If one were to return to the homeland normally, the time spent traveling back and forth, along with the time needed to rest and recover, would require at least three hours, if not more
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief; they could not believe that Xu Ercong would be such a person. He must have his reasons for acting this way
Xu Ercong shrugged his shoulders
Wang Dali removed his helmet, lit a cigarette, and exhaled a sorrowful ring of smoke
I am doing this to test the newly discovered game bug. Although the GM stated that malicious suicide to disrupt the gaming experience is not allowed, there was no mention of prohibiting player-versus-player combat, nor was there any indication that players would face penalties for death downgrade after engaging in such combat.
Swish!
"Er Cong, what are you thinking about again?"
In this way, even if the GM is a staff member rather than an intelligent program, they would not be able to directly determine that we are exploiting loopholes, after all, they have no evidence
Until his death, Wang Dali never understood why Xu Ercong wanted to kill him
An hour later, everyone gathered again at the cave, fully equipped and ready to make another push for levels
So what are we waiting for now
Single dog, who is your brother
Wang Dali was overjoyed. Could it be that Er Cong has really found the bug in this game!
So, does that mean the plan can be implemented
Stop making noise
This group of people can be considered the first batch of players, so let's regard it as a benefit for them
This strike... swift! Accurate! Fierce!
Wang Dali was furious, he was truly angry
There is no issue with the timing
Swish
Xu Ercong threw a team invitation to Wang Dali, who was walking towards him in the distance, and Wang Dali reflexively accepted it
Due to the reason of death and resurrection, Wang Dali can freely appear in any corner of the divine realm. He directly chooses to resurrect at the entrance of the instance, and then, wielding his bone knife, he angrily steps into the instance.
Wang Dali was the first to die, being a test subject, and thus he was unaware of Xu Ercong's bug analysis and implementation plan
Xu Ercong's words won the recognition and agreement of his companions, and everyone nodded in unison: "We all listen to you"
Do not rush, do not rush
In order to prevent this bug from being quickly fixed, we should use it cautiously. Even if subsequent players continue to enter, we must not easily expose it
Chen Danshen nodded, casually struck Bai Mengmeng, and then Xu Ercong casually struck Chen Danshen
Why do people engage in mutual destruction?
Dear player, your behavior is inappropriate! This is a formal warning to you. If malicious use of death resurrection to disrupt the gaming experience is detected, a mandatory penalty of reducing your level by 1 will be enforced
Xu Ercong picked up the bone knife and thrust it into Wang Dali's hand, his face full of seriousness: "Hurry, kill me! Right now!"
Li Tiangou reacted quickly, hurriedly covering Chen Danshen's mouth, and then sent a group message to others: "Don't say anything, otherwise we will be discovered by the GM"
Xu Ercong nodded
Bai Mengmeng, without uttering a word, thrust a knife into Li Tiangou's eye socket, shattering the flame of the soul
What do you not think of?
Chen Danshen glanced at Xu Ercong, eager to give it a try
There is no time to explain
This vulnerability can be temporarily left unaddressed, and Xu Ercong's ideas have also inspired me. I can collect some related bugs and use the game update as an excuse to fix these bugs
Clang!
Wang Dali looked at Xu Ercong in shock; he now only felt his head spinning and then lost consciousness, collapsing to the ground.
This scene is simply too intense and thrilling
Swish!
Fatal damage -100
Li Tiangou fell headfirst to the ground, and Chen Danshen glanced at Bai Mengmeng, who looked a bit embarrassed: "Dying early means an early rebirth, saving time for upgrades"
Li Tiangou excitedly shouted: "Let's get started!"
Fatal damage -100
Brother, why do you want to kill me
I found him displeasing, so I cut him down
Xu Ercong not only struck a fatal blow to Wang Dali, but also twisted his wrist, causing the blade to violently shatter Wang Dali's soul fire
That makes sense
Wang Dali said with a mouthful of bitterness: "Must it be this way? If it comes to that, I can forgo those 30 days of lifespan points."
Xu Ercong drew out his novice bone knife and suddenly thrust it into Wang Dali's eye socket, piercing the flame of his soul
The intelligence of the players should indeed not be underestimated
Xu Ercong glanced at the basic information of the team members and nodded in satisfaction: "Very good, he has not been demoted, and their statuses are all full"
Xu Ercong, lost in thought with his arms crossed, suddenly spoke up: "Then, if that is the case, I can now confirm another piece of intelligence."
one hour and twenty-three minutes
Dali is no longer powerful; even playing a game feels terrifying
When it comes to attracting players, I believe I should adopt a different approach, encouraging existing veteran players to motivate the potential of new players. The urgent task at hand is to bring more players into the divine realm to become my followers
Bai Mengmeng looked at Xu Ercong with a bewildered expression and asked, "Why did you want to kill Dali?"
Who says there are no bugs anymore
Such a person would lead a carefree life in a normal gaming world
Chen Danshen was very excited and handed the knife to Bai Mengmeng, saying: "Come on, you kill me! Don't be polite, we are all brothers, so go ahead and be a little heavier with it."
What is going on
Everyone turned their gaze towards Xu Ercong
He overlooked this point; without the death penalty, it would be impossible to prevent players from fighting among themselves.
Chen Danshen could not help but shout: "Being killed by a player counts as PK, PK death does not count as suicide, there is no penalty for death downgrade, as long as we do this..."
Bai Mengmeng is feeling quite down, even though she is clearly a lovely girl
However, we must also be cautious in using this bug
Xu Ercong, return my life to me
Moreover, if multiple setting changes are proposed within a short period, it may lead players to question the game itself, thereby increasing their awareness of the underlying truth that this is a real existing world.
Xu Ercong explained in a private message: "This way, Dali can save the time needed to return to the divine realm for recovery, and only needs to wait for one hour to fully revive."
An hour later, Wang Dali entered the game
At this moment, Xu Xiaofan deeply realized the wisdom of the players; however, the smarter the players were, the greater the potential of the New Divine Kingdom.
"Will you kill or not? If you don't, we won't play with you."
Wang Dali shouted loudly, informing everyone of the news he had just heard: "The game GM just told me that if someone maliciously commits suicide to disrupt the gaming experience, their level will be reduced after death!"
He is certainly afraid of dying
Xu Ercong calmly opened the divine system and glanced at the time
However, based on the prediction put forward by Xu Ercong, Xu Xiaofan felt that he must come up with a good solution that would enable the players to reduce internal strife and unite to conquer the other world
Xu Xiaofan sat in the Hall of Death, leaning on his scythe, resting his chin on his hand, and pondering seriously
Ah, I misjudged you, Dali
