Forums, especially official forums, are usually regarded as a link between game companies and players. Game companies can collect and sort out many players' suggestions and information from here, and they can also publish some insider news of a preview nature to players, observing players' reactions to it earlier.
Some of the moderators who manage the official forums are members of the game company, while others are full-time professionals recruited from the outside with management experience in this area. But no matter which type they are, they have access to some internal game information one step ahead of the players.
You Ge has been roaming around various game forums for a long time and has friendships with many people in the moderator circle. This time, the official forum of Parallel World is no exception. A familiar friend recently told You Ge that the game is currently operating well and is likely to be officially launched on the market.
"Oh? What big moves will there be?" Han Jia Gongzi asked. Generally, game companies usually have a relatively large move in the transition phase from public beta to official operation, in order to further attract players' attention and attract more customers.
You Ge smiled: "With the current monopoly position of 'Parallel World', is there still a need for these tricks?"
"That's true." Han Jia Gongzi nodded.
"Official operation is just the beginning of not restricting account releases. The biggest change is that more people will flood into this game," You Ge said. "Besides that, my friend didn't say anything else."
"More people is a good thing, as long as it doesn't lag..." Han Jia Gongzi muttered. This is the inertial thinking formed by playing traditional online games, that is, hoping that there are more people and more excitement in their game area, but also worrying that too many people will lead to slow internet speed. Players are not easy, working hard to survive in a contradictory mentality...
On the other side, Gu Fei was grabbed by Zhan Wu Shang and Yu Tian Shen Ming in a private room, and found a corner to sit down.
"Intelligence, intelligence!" the two said.
"What intelligence!" Gu Fei said helplessly.
"The beauty's name and personality!" the two said.
"I haven't even been able to match all the names yet, let alone the personality," Gu Fei said, and couldn't help but think of Lie Lie, who had a relatively distinct personality. He didn't know what attitude these two in front of him would have towards a girl with this kind of personality.
"Too useless, you've been in this guild for quite a while, right? You don't even have this little information!" Yu Tian Shen Ming said.
"Qian Li, it's not that I'm saying, your awareness is really not enough! Look at Yu Tian, he's so young, but his awareness is quite high," Zhan Wu Shang said.
The little hope that Gu Fei had for Zhan Wu Shang was completely extinguished, and he spread his hands helplessly.
"Forget it, just report the names of the beauties you know first!" the two said.
Getting the names is easy, just read the guild list to the two of them. However, in online games, names are not just names, they are also equivalent to phone numbers. Knowing the name allows you to add friends, and then you can endlessly harass them with messages. Thinking of the consequences, Gu Fei dared not tell the two of them the names casually, not even Lie Lie, whom he disliked.
"What's wrong, say it!" Yu Tian Shen Ming bought a pile of notebooks and pens today, and at this time took out a brand new one, with "Beauty Information Database" written neatly on the cover. Then he turned to the first page, set up his writing posture, but Gu Fei was late to speak, and looked up and asked suspiciously.
"What's wrong Qian Li, you're not willing to help with such a small favor!" Zhan Wu Shang's face turned cold.
Obviously, in his and Yu Tian Shen Ming's minds, beauty resources should be shared as a matter of course, and should not be hidden.
"Alas, I'll help you ask!" Gu Fei said helplessly. He was unwilling to reveal other people's information privately, but it was also unreasonable not to help Yu Tian Shen Ming and Zhan Wu Shang, so he could only seek the girls' consent first.
The girls were not idle at this time. As soon as Gu Fei left, the discussion continued.
"Lie Lie, wasn't that person the priest near the North Gate just now?" Bing Liu Li asked Lie Lie.
"Yes!" Lie Lie nodded, "I've seen him a long time ago, he's very arrogant, and he even brings a thief to sneak behind him, he's a lunatic! Sister Luo Luo, maybe when you chased out to see just now, that thief was spying outside again!"
"Possible." Luo Luo nodded, and finally asked: "What did you see him doing at the North Gate?"
"Helping Qian Li! With a few people," Lie Lie said.
"You mean, Han Jia Gongzi and his companions?" Luo Luo's eyes widened.
"No! I asked one of them, and he said he was Qian Li's friend, right Xiao Bing?" Lie Lie turned to ask Bing Liu Li.
Bing Liu Li nodded: "The archer said it."
"Archer? Yu Tian Shen Ming?" Luo Luo asked.
"That's him!" Lie Lie and Bing Liu Li said in unison, "Luo Luo, how do you know?"
"I also saw such a guy at the City Gate Tavern, he knew Qian Li, and later left with Qian Li," Luo Luo said.
"Yu Tian Shen Ming? Shouldn't he be a mage?" Qi Yue asked suspiciously, "Same pronunciation?"
"Sister Qi Yue, do you know this person?" Lie Lie and Bing Liu Li asked.
"A very famous mage player in the online game world is called Yu Tian Shen Ming," Qi Yue said, "Belongs to the top experts."
"Could that melee mage be Yu Tian Shen Ming?" Lie Lie said excitedly.
Qi Yue and Luo Luo looked at each other and said in unison: "No way!"
"Why? Isn't he a mage expert?" Lie Lie asked strangely.
"Xiao Bing, have you seen this name on the mage experience list?" Luo Luo asked Bing Liu Li.
"It doesn't seem like it..." Bing Liu Li replied.
"That's not surprising, his name was taken by that broken archer, of course he has to change his ID!" Lie Lie said.
"That's impossible either," Qi Yue said.
"Why?" Lie Lie didn't understand.
Qi Yue and Luo Luo looked at each other, and finally said: "Because it is said that this guy is very lecherous, and will go up to chat with female players, the most famous sentence is 'Sister, do you want little brother to take you to level up?'. Do you think that melee mage looks like this kind of person?"
Lie Lie shook her head frantically.
"Did that archer named Yu Tian Shen Ming call you sisters?" Qi Yue asked Luo Luo and the other three.
"No," the three replied.
"However, he is indeed a bit like that..." Bing Liu Li said, "He came over to introduce himself, and then kept hanging around me and Lie Lie, talking to us."
Luo Luo nodded: "Now it's a realistic environment, he can't chase people's butts and call them sisters anymore, that's not cute at all!"
"In this way, this Yu Tian Shen Ming is indeed that one, but this time he changed his profession," Qi Yue said.
"It should be like this," Luo Luo nodded.
"Since they are all Qian Li's friends, why did Qian Li say he hired them?" Qi Yue said.
"Fighting! He called his friends, but there weren't enough people, so of course he could only hire some helpers. That's also plausible." Luo Luo was trying to find a possible explanation, but was actually also suspicious. "Do those people recognize each other?" she continued to ask Lie Lie.
Lie Lie scratched her head.
"It seems like they do," Bing Liu Li said, "I remember when a warrior came over, he called out Yu Tian Shen Ming's name, so they should know each other, right?"
"How many people in total?" Luo Luo asked.
"Four, the archer is Yu Tian Shen Ming, and there's the priest, then a warrior and a knight," Bing Liu Li said.
"Including the melee mage and that thief, that's exactly six people!" Luo Luo said, "The Gongzi elite team also has six people."
"You mean they are members of the Gongzi elite team?" Qi Yue said.
Luo Luo nodded.
"Then Qian Li knows people from the elite team, why does he say he doesn't know them?"
"If they are friends, Qian Li should be helping them hide it... or, Qian Li is a member of them, Qian Li is the melee mage!" Luo Luo said.
"No way!" Lie Lie cried, "But he will never pay attention to me again."
"Don't worry, it's all just guessing, this matter still needs to be confirmed!" Luo Luo comforted Lie Lie. Lie Lie has always regarded the melee mage as her idol.
"To confirm this, it seems we have to focus on that Yu Tian Shen Ming," Qi Yue said.
"That guy, it shouldn't be too much trouble for us to come forward, right?" Luo Luo said.
"Who is willing to get close to this lecherous guy?" Qi Yue asked
The women shuddered.
"As far as I know, he doesn't have any..." Luo Luo said.
"Then you go!" The remaining three said in unison.
"Right, right, the new Liu Xia beauty seems to know him," Luo Luo quickly suggested.
"Forget it, the fewer people who know about this, the better. They are so deliberately concealing their identities, it's already inappropriate for us to inquire so much, so let's not expand the scope any further," Qi Yue said.
"In this case, we have no choice but to draw lots." Luo Luo glanced around.
Qi Yue also glanced around, and finally sighed: "Let's draw lots among the three of us, even if Xiao Bing draws it, she probably won't be able to ask anything."
Bing Liu Li blushed.
Just as she was about to make paper lots, Qi Yue suddenly said in surprise: "Wait."
"What?"
"I have two friends who know that I am also a member of Rebirth Amethyst, and they want me to introduce you to them," Qi Yue read, "A message from Qian Li."
"No need to ask, one of his two friends must be Yu Tian Shen Ming." Luo Luo said with delight.
"This is called walking right into the net," Qi Yue smiled.
"Call them over, this time we must ask clearly!" Luo Luo said.
"What if Qian Li is really the melee mage, what will I do!" Lie Lie cried again.
"You really have no chance," Luo Luo touched her head and smiled.
