Prison Island

Chapter 282 National War: Traitors

"Announce the rules first, Apostle Beelzebub," Lester urged.

He seemed to be the only one who knew the apostle's name.

Beelzebub was wearing a formal dress and had fly hair on his human body.

He projected the rules and introduced them.

[The game field in this game is divided into the Empire Territory and the Wild Area. The Empire Territory is divided into the Black Empire, the White Empire, and the Blue Empire according to color. ]

[The territories of the three empires are connected in a ring, and each empire is divided into three camps: the main city, the left wing, and the right wing. ]

[The wild area is divided into the Diplomatic Square and the Radiation Beast Lake. Players must not be harmed within the Diplomatic Square and the three passages leading to the Empire. Violators will be killed.]

[A radiation beast is released into the radiation beast lake every ten minutes. The level is random. When the radiation beast dies, it drops a combat power card of the corresponding level.]

[The national war is divided into three stages, each with unique rules. 】

[First, the peace phase. Players in this phase are not allowed to harm any other players. Violators will be killed. Every ten minutes, players will receive a combat power card corresponding to their own level in their own camp, and a combat power card of a random level in a non-own camp. If the player is in the enemy camp, he can also get an additional random combat power card. ]

[Second, in the war phase, when an elephant-level unit of any empire dies in the territory of another empire, or a dragon-level combat card of any empire is deployed in the territory of another empire, the two countries enter the war phase.]

[During the battle phase, players are not allowed to actively harm players in the same camp. Violators will be killed. ]

[Except for the main city, a maximum of three players can be stationed in the same base at the same time. If there are only players from the same camp in a base, the base belongs to that camp. ]

[Third, the truce phase. When all players in the three empire camps initiate a truce vote, the truce phase begins.]

[During the truce phase, all battles in the strongholds will be stopped, and those who violate the rules will be killed. During this period, the lord of the empire can vote in the main city to kill the traitors in the same main city. ]

[During the truce phase, each camp can only send one player to the diplomatic square for negotiations at the same time. Negotiations are conducted in secret, and all results depend on the negotiating player.]

[Negotiating players can initiate a peace agreement, which is supervised by the Apostle. The content includes but is not limited to the transfer of players, bases, combat power cards and other transferable items. ]

[Once all negotiating players vote in agreement, the peace phase will begin, and the peace agreement will be sacred and inviolable and enforced by the apostles. ]

[If the negotiating players cannot reach an agreement, any of the negotiating players can decide to return to the war stage. ]

[When one camp has all nine strongholds in the Three Kingdoms, the game ends. At the end of the game, all players in the remaining camps will be killed.]

Seeing this, many players did not show any surprise.

Gao Xin still remained autistic, but there was an uproar in his heart.

Is this really a national war?

The game of Three Kingdoms can only end with unification.

It's just a simulation using some kind of combat power card, and players should be able to fight in person, but there are many restrictions.

This made Gao Xin nod secretly. Solomon said that the game would be balanced, and it seemed to be true.

This game obviously cannot be controlled by combat power alone.

Combat power cards are specially designed to replace the fighting between players. On the one hand, the audience really can't understand this kind of high-end battle, and on the other hand, it is also to balance the combat power gap between him and other gold players.

"All the players in this round should be here to find me. There should be many forces that want to kill me if I can't win them over."

"There are twelve forces in the Three Kingdoms and Nine Cities, but only nine players, and two of them are from Sea King Port. There are only seven forces at most except me. Maybe the people sent by some organizations are too strong, so the system doesn't assign me a position at all."

"Nine players, three empires. In fact, I only need to win over two players to balance it out. Xivina is my natural ally, and Great White Shark is also the Sea King Port. If I can win over Yak, we will be a team of four."

Gao Xin thought to himself, and then the apostle gave an introduction to the combat power card.

[Battle Power Cards are divided into ten levels: Dragon King, True Dragon, Sub-Dragon, Latent Dragon, True Elephant, Sub-Elephant, Baby Elephant, True Tiger, Sub-Tiger, and Young Tiger.]

[The battle power card is a virtual projection. Only the player can touch it. Once touched, it will be absorbed. Before deployment, only the player can see it. 】

[Battle Power Cards can be deployed in the wild area and nine strongholds. The players can call them at any time and deploy battle robots of corresponding levels. They all have expert AI and are commanded by the players who call them. ]

[There are two types of deployment. Hidden deployment is invisible and cannot be retrieved once summoned. Public deployment is visible and can be retrieved and redeployed as long as it is not completely destroyed after being summoned. Regardless of the type of deployment, the summoned machine cannot leave the deployment area, otherwise it will be killed.]

[Players can also deploy themselves as a combat force, unlimited times. ]

Seeing this, Gao Xin couldn't help but feel happy.

As expected, in this way, the impact of the player's own combat power is reduced to the lowest. As long as the cards in his hand are powerful, no matter how powerful the enemy is, it will be useless.

Or if there are enough Hidden Dragon-level and True Elephant-level cards, the enemy will not be able to withstand a group attack.

The player himself is nothing more than a combat power card that can be used infinitely.

"Are they actually summoning AI to join the battle? A combat robot..."

"So it's actually about manpower. And the way to obtain manpower is to go wild in Radiation Lake, and then you can only do so during the peacetime period, and it will be automatically obtained every ten minutes."

"In other words, the peace phase is actually a time for development. Everyone accumulates cards and then goes to war. The longer the peace phase is, the more combat power everyone accumulates."

"If you are at your own camp, you will only get your own combat power card. I am a real tiger, so I will only get a tiger card? What's the use of this... In this game, this is a cannon fodder card..."

"So, I have to go undercover in other camps to have a chance to randomly get other cards. This game actually encourages undercover work, because only in this way can you get super powerful cards like the True Dragon Card and the Dragon King Card."

Gao Xin quickly analyzed that the importance of the combat power card was beyond doubt. Only those with military power had the right to speak.

And he was at a natural disadvantage... because he was the lowest-level player in the game...

Roughly estimated, each player in this game has a quasi-elephant king, plus two or three hidden dragons.

In other words, cards below the True Elephant level are all cannon fodder cards, and even the True Elephant cards are probably not very useful.

"A True Elephant-level robot, stronger than most True Elephant-level robots, but weaker than a Quasi-Elephant King."

"The Quasi-Elephant King can't easily deal with the True Elephant Robot at best, so this is a card that consumes the player's energy and delays them."

"Cards like Hidden Dragon and above are the cards that can truly fight against players and have a decisive influence on victory or defeat."

"As for Xivina, as long as she stays in her own camp, she can naturally continue to receive Hidden Dragon Cards. She doesn't need to randomly choose. On the contrary, randomly choosing may result in a high probability of getting useless cards."

When Gao Xin thought of this, he knew that he had to team up with Xivina. If he wanted to get a good card, he could only rely on randomness, but Xivina was a card swiping machine that could stably obtain the Hidden Dragon Combat Power Card.

This is the hen that lays the golden eggs. As for the relationship, she came into the game for me. She couldn't have come in just to kill me, right?

Silvina is his best natural ally in this game.

At this time, another woman at the scene besides Sivina spoke.

She is a black person. Although her skin is dark, it is as delicate and shiny as pearl. Her facial features are exquisite and she has a mixed-race beauty.

He is six meters tall, the second largest person in the stadium after Lester.

"Oh? It's another national war game simulating our Three Kingdoms and Nine Cities. The battle card settings haven't changed at all, and the Three Kingdoms settings are almost the same."

"Humph, this time I want to be the White Empire again. Our Garden of Eden is the most holy white."

Hearing this, Gao Xin had a strange expression on his face. A black girl actually said something about the most holy white. What the hell, was she talking about him?
Moreover, has she actually played a similar game?

It seems that national war games are a type of game that is often played in high-end gold bureaus.

In that case, don't they have a lot of experience?
Lester said, "Don't be impatient, Black Pearl. The rules for camp allocation have not been announced yet."

"It's called [National War - Traitors], what are the rules for this traitor? Beelzebub."

Apostle Beelzebub suddenly added a series of rules next to the basic rules of the national war.

[The player camp in this game is composed of three components. 】

['Innate component' will be randomly and evenly distributed by the system. This is the only unchanging empire component for players. ]

[Ten minutes after the start of the peace phase, all players staying at their own camps will vote on the "trend component" to determine the black, white and blue colors of the empire component, which is publicly shared by all players.]

['Soul Composition' will be chosen by each player within the first minute of the Peace Phase, in three colors: black, white and blue. It is the composition of the empire determined by the player.]

[When a player has two identical components, he/she will belong to that empire. If a player has three identical components, he/she will become the lord of that empire.]

[During the truce phase, the lord of the empire has the priority to become the negotiating player. ]

[The Lord of the Empire can also initiate a vote to kill traitors in the main city, and select at least two players from the same main city to participate. The one with the highest votes will be killed. ]

[If the Lord of the Empire dies in the extermination of traitors, the player who voted for the Lord of the Empire will become a traitor and have the ability to change the composition of his soul at any time. ]

Gao Xin had a strange look on his face, it turned out that the camp was made up of three components.

No one's camp is fixed, and no one's identity is black or white, but a mixture of the three colors.

One may be born with a black component, or one may yearn for white in one's heart, plus there is the public component of the general trend... In short, there is a lot of variability.

And the traitors actually wanted to commit suicide by surrendering to the ruler of the empire.

The vote to kill traitors can only be initiated by the ruler of the empire, and he can also choose who has the right to vote. If someone can be voted to death, it only means that the empire has been infiltrated by a traitor.

The task of becoming a traitor is quite difficult to achieve.

But once you become a defector, the benefits are huge, and you can change your identity almost at any time.

"Traitors are life-saving identities. After the unification, the game is over and the players from other factions will be killed."

"Players who cannot change sides must defect if they want to survive."

"This way, we can switch camps according to the general trend and survive."

"Hmm... In this case, the traitor doesn't necessarily have to be a traitor in the city. Even if he is one of our own, he may have deliberately defected and surrendered to his own empire master..."

"In order to survive, at the end of the empire, the so-called lord of the empire is likely to be deserted by his friends and relatives."

Gao Xin thought to himself that the entire national war game was originally quite simple, but because of this rule, it suddenly became complicated.

Sure enough, the other players were also quite moved.

The woman known as Black Pearl raised her head and said, "Is this still a national war? It has directly turned into an undercover war... Is this the National War of the Bourne Supremacy?"

Lester laughed and said, "In the national war games I played before, everyone competed for the title of empire master. But now... I'm afraid no one will dare to take the title in the later stages."

"When the ship was about to sink, the lord of the empire might have been the first to rebel..."

What he said was right, and he immediately pointed out the embarrassing position of the Lord of the Empire in this game.

If you initiate a vote, you will most likely be sold out.

Kill the traitor? The lord of the empire himself is the biggest traitor!
The faster the ship sinks, the less likely you are to get rid of the traitors, otherwise you may die faster.

Finally, Beelzebub gave the reward rules.

[After the game ends, the surviving players will be awarded 10 indulgence points. Killing a player, whether by hand, by machine, or by voting, will be rewarded with an additional 10 indulgence points.]

[The highest remaining battle card that has not been summoned can double all rewards by the corresponding coefficient. ]

[The Dragon King to Tiger Cub combat power cards have a bonus factor of 100 to 10 times, respectively. ]

At this point all the rules have been introduced, and Gao Xin's eyes lit up.

Survival rewards and kill rewards are common and there is nothing much to say.

It turns out that if you keep the combat power card, you can double the extra reward.

This is to encourage everyone to use super combat power cards less often. After all, if someone is lucky enough to draw the Dragon King card, it means they are almost invincible.

If you are greedy for rewards, then high-end combat power cards may be used as a deterrent as much as possible.
