Urban Sims

The twins were successfully born, and Zhou Ming became a father. Sullivan, who had been trying to cause trouble for him in the past few years, completely gave up.

Why is Zhou Ming so good at knowing things and his skill in digging holes and burying people so refined?

Because he will not give his opponents the slightest chance of seeing his flaws, brewing conspiracies behind his back, and ultimately putting him to death.

The opponent is not a fool, and he is not an idiot. He never has the slightest illusion in anything he does, and always prepares for the best and the worst.

Therefore, after getting married, he made his wife Lan Mengxin wait for five years before starting to have the child she longed for.

In the past two years, Zhou Ming, who has not played a game in the gaming circle and has only continued to strengthen his brain, did not have the strength until his brain was strengthened to 79%, to the point where it could no longer be strengthened. Be absolutely sure to meet all challenges.

With a brain development rate of 79% and the additional gain of "Reality Brain", Zhou Ming also has a certain "soul perspective" ability. Of course, it is still not as powerful as Lan Mengxin, but in the gaming field, it has already been achieved. To the point where you can see through your opponent's tricks and trump cards at a glance.

Mind deception, mind sealing... these abilities are not to mention.

Therefore, Zhou Ming, who said he would not fight an unprepared battle, dug a pit in advance for Sullivan to die, causing the friend who "cared about" him the most to go to the eighteenth level of hell.

Earned 833 million dollars.

Including Zhou Ming's own net worth of 645 million.

The total is 1.478 billion money.

"With just two crucial zero-sum games, my net worth has risen to third place in the upper class."

Looking at his position on the latest wealth ranking list in the gaming system, Zhou Ming began to feel that it was not impossible to clear this dungeon in this round.

but.

More than one billion dollars is not enough just to clear the level!

Need more!

How can I get more money?

Method 1: Naturally, it is still a zero-sum game. If we return to zero with a few rich people like Long Shengguang and Sullivan, are we still afraid that we will not be able to get money?

But this method will become increasingly difficult to use in the future, because after Sullivan was killed by him within 15 minutes, the entire gaming circle was in an uproar and was extremely shocked.

Because in the gaming circle, Sullivan is also considered a well-known figure, nicknamed "The Slayer", and his experience is legendary. Since he inherited his father's 300 million wealth, he has faced challenges that come to him one after another. All of them readily accepted the challenge and even challenged them to the ground.

After becoming the Ultimate Gamer, Sullivan did not waste any of the three challenge indicators every year, so in just ten years, he accumulated more than 800 million in money.

Moreover, he must repay his flaws and do things unscrupulously. No one who is targeted by him can escape. The name of "Slaughterer" is frightening.

As a result, he was killed instantly.

Zhou Ming, a gamer who is known as the "lucky man", "a soft-boiled man", "parallel import gamer", etc. in the gaming circle, shocked everyone's attention.

Those who had originally regarded him as their number one target now had to consider whether they could perform better than Sullivan and kill the soft-boiled man if they were selected?

After all, once is luck, what about twice?

Twice may be the strength.

Considering Zhou Ming's current net worth of nearly 1.5 billion, those gamers whose capital is not even a fraction of his dare to make zero-sum game requests to him. Are they tired of living?

(The "Game Law" stipulates: If a person with a low value challenges a person with a high value, the chips of the two will not change. For example, the person with a low value has a chip of 100 million, and the person with a high value has a chip of 1 billion. When placing a bet, , if the person with a high net worth bets 200 million, does the person with a low net worth have the capital to follow the bet? Even if it is a winning hand, it will definitely lose, because the gambling capital of both parties is not of the same magnitude)

It is difficult to challenge from low to high. If you challenge from high to low, you may end up in a big fight like Sullivan. Therefore, most ultimate gamers will not take action unless they are relatively sure.

So, will the top two figures on the wealth list take action against Zhou Ming?

Zhou Ming is not sure, but of course he is not afraid. He has full confidence in his own strength.

In addition, the top players in the upper-level areas generally participate in fewer games as they move to the back, because each game is recorded on video, and they will be put under a magnifying glass by others and analyzed repeatedly to find weaknesses and patterns.

For example, those who go to gaming venues to play more often will generally die quickly once their weaknesses are exposed.

Therefore, Zhou Ming, who does not want to give others a chance to find out his weaknesses (this weakness is related to his character and cannot be avoided), will not take action easily again.

Therefore, Zhou Ming, who still wanted to increase his worth, set his sights on one thing - games.

He plans to develop a completely new game.

This game is bloody, violent, inhumane, and extremely fun.

Because of this game, players can not only place bets, but also add a brand new mode - player participation mode.

In this mode, the player will connect with the game character through a set of mental signal link equipment, and then bind the character through a special neural control device to control and play the game.

The biggest innovation of this mode is that players in the upper area can not only place bets, but also personally participate in the game and try their best to get the victory they want.

This model has undoubtedly subverted the traditional scene where players placed their hopes on luck and miracles after betting. During the game, they could only stand aside and stare, waiting for the results.

In these traditional games, some players curse, some beat their chests, and some are ecstatic about the performance of character players - in short, they cannot interfere.

In today's game, they can not only interfere, but to a certain extent, the bettors are also game players.

Naturally, the betting player plays the role of "game controller".

Game players play the role of "one-life NPC".

This game was named "Arrival" by Zhou Ming and his game planning team.

"Arrival" is held approximately every two months, with 5,000 players participating in each game. They are divided into red and green sides, with 2,500 people on each side. Each game is held for three days. The conditions for determining the winner are: all players on one side die. Or the player who captures all the treasure boxes wins. There are a total of 10 treasure boxes in the battlefield. The player who captures the treasure boxes is qualified to advance to Area 52.

Among the 5,000 players, there will be 100 "Adventors" on each side of the red and green teams participating in the battle. Players who control these "Adventors" will have different rewards if they win the game, survive successfully, or get the treasure chest...

Players in the upper area also have a variety of betting methods. They can guess the number of survivors, buy the number of the surviving player, or a mixture of the two; they can also buy the number of treasure chests obtained by buying descendants, the number of descendants surviving, and the descending survival number. , or mixed purchases... There are dozens of ways to bet.

There are ten game maps, distributed in six bottom areas. There are urban battles, desert battles, forest battles, grassland battles, island battles and other battlefields. The maps are rich and diverse.

There are also different worries about technology. The "mental controller" provided by the smart hospital has an average network delay of only 50 milliseconds and is very easy to control... In exchange for these technical support, Zhou Ming gave 12% of the shares of the "Advent" game to the smart hospital. , the hospital quickly dispatched a professional team to provide full technical support.

…

June of the new calendar year 582.

The game "Arrival" is officially launched!

The first game attracted 5.22 million people in the upper area to watch online at the same time, and 4.67 million people placed bets.

The new Advent mode has caused a huge sensation.

"It's interesting, it's so interesting, we can go in and play by ourselves!"

"Awesome, awesome! The descendants are much more powerful than those trash natives! It's absolutely atrocious!"

"Oh, go ahead, Orik the Butcher has killed 50 natives and got 3 treasure chests! It's awesome, it's really awesome!"

"I hit it. I voted for the Adventer and got 8 treasure chests and the Natives got 2. I guessed it! Twenty times, twenty times!"

"I also won. I guessed that Orric could kill more than 60 people, and he killed 78... Oh my God, this cold-blooded butcher, I love him to death! He doubled my bet thirty times, he is My lucky messenger!"

"I want to play this game, I want to be the descendant! I want to buy myself!"

…

In the bottom area, inside the competition map of the "Arrival" game, there is another scene.

There was a hail of bullets, broken limbs and arms, and screams everywhere, just like Shura Hell.

"Why am I running forward? Why is my body out of control? Is there something on my head?"

"Ah!! Get away, get out of my mind, bastard, bastard!"

"No, I don't want to die, I don't want to die! The guy who controls me, don't run forward anymore, my body can't hold it anymore, I'm not a machine, I'm a human being!"

"I killed someone. I killed many, many people. Who is controlling me? Who is controlling me?"

"Run, run! Those people with hats on their heads are devils! Their heads are occupied by devils. We can't defeat the devils. If we don't run, we will be dead!"

"Hey! We are teammates, teammates of the same team! Why do you even kill your teammates? You devils, don't even think about taking away all the treasure boxes? Ah!"

"Tu tu tu tu!" The man was killed by the descendant.

…

"Arrival" game company, in the operation hall.

After the first game, the employees cheered in the hall, creating an extremely warm atmosphere.

"The statistics are out, 4.67 million people have bet, and the total amount of money bet is 158 million, which is more than double the amount of money bet in the highest period of the most popular "Game of Death"! Boss, it's a success! This game It was a huge success!”

The person in charge of the game, Jones Rui, flushed with excitement, then said to the boss: "Boss, this is just the first game. If this trend continues, the market share of the "Arrival" game is expected to account for 30% of the entire market. % or more! It can generate more than 50 million in profits every year! Boss, the game "Arrival" will definitely become the most profitable game!"

only.

This kind of profit is based on nearly 5,000 deaths per game and nearly 30,000 deaths every year.

They are all real people!

Who cares?

Looking at the cheerful performance of these employees in the operations hall, with expressions on their faces as if they were counting money... Zhou Ming nodded, patted Qiong Ruisi on the shoulder, smiled and said: "Well done, keep up the good work!"

It's just an ant. If you die, you will die.
