Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 130 Discussion of Game Permissions, Arctic Affairs Imminent to be Revealed
I'm just an ordinary person; "After this simulation, there will only be sixteen people left in our group. I wonder who will be eliminated next time. It feels like it's getting harder and harder."

The logical genius said, "The whole continent is in complete chaos, how can it not be difficult? But overall, the situation for the first round of players has stabilized, and the death rate is finally not as high as before."

Not Tea Master: "Most of the first-round players have improved their strength now. If the death rate is still as high as before, that would be terrible! But speaking of which, what's the situation with Night Owl? I don't see his ID in the group anymore. How did the Countermeasures Bureau know he's still alive? Sister Yu, won't you say something? @InsomniaRain."

Wow Da Xi Frog: "Indeed, I thought the prediction day would definitely reach 600 days this time, but it only reached 400 days. I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. But what is the current situation of the chief?"

Human Sweetie: "Do you guys think it's possible that Night Owl's strength is too far out of sync with us ordinary players? Is the game no longer using his rank to calculate the simulation days?"

The logical genius said, "Believe it or not, this situation could actually exist. In fact, Night Owl may have already reached a higher level and taken another step forward in the title of Chief Player, gaining more real-game privileges."

Not Tea Master: "Gained game privileges? Holy crap! By the way, what exactly are the privileges between the chief player and the ten second-place players? Logic, did you also get the second-place title? Can you tell me about the privileges of the second-place title?"

"Damn it! I was just a step too slow to advance to the fourth tier, and the system notified me that the ten spots for second-place players were already filled. After I broke through, I only got the title of Elite Player. This title is really useless. All I can do is view the information of all non-elite players, and the attribute reduction for fighting players is only 5%. It's incredibly low."

Wow Da Xi Frog: "Be content. It's better to have something than nothing. As for permissions, it's really just about blocking your own game video footage released by the official channels. Think about the rest yourself. Actually, everyone is pretty much the same."

Human Sweetheart: "No, no, judging from your tone, you're all already at Tier 4???!!!"

Not Tea Master: "The various races on the continent are practically fighting to the death. Even the sea races, by raiding the coastal cities of humans and elves, haven't their growth rates skyrocketed? And you, little elf sister, aren't even at rank four yet???"

Human Sweetie: "Aaaaaah! This isn't fair! My character isn't even an adult in the Elven race yet, and the Empire doesn't accept minors in its conquests!!! What can I do?! This is so infuriating!"

The Logic Genius: "Hey, it's rare to see Little Sweetie break down like this, but let's get down to business. What's the situation with the Chief? Also, why haven't we seen 'Ah Cheng' lately? He reached the fourth tier earlier than all of us, so he must have the title of Second Place."

Sweetheart: "@Chengge Take Off, @Insomnia and Rain, I've tagged you guys, you're welcome."

About ten minutes later, just as everyone was chatting enthusiastically, Insomnia and Rain finally came out.

Insomnia and Rain: "Sorry, I had some urgent business in real life and didn't see everyone's messages. I just managed to come online now."

Insomnia and Rain: "I don't know much about the Chief either, but Night Owl is indeed fine. 'Ah Cheng' knows this best. However, unless Night Owl says it himself, I think it's best if everyone doesn't inquire about it."

Not Tea Master: "How come Ah Cheng is the one who knows the most about the Chief's affairs? Could it be???"

A logical genius: "Did Ah Cheng manage to get on the top leader's good side???"

Human Sweetie: "When did all this happen? I was wondering why Ah Cheng was so calm after his predictions this time, he didn't even show up in the group. Did he manage to get on Night Owl's good side?"

I'm just an ordinary person: "What a blessing in disguise! With the Chief looking after him, Ah Cheng's safety is finally resolved. By the way, has Ah Cheng been spying on us all along? @ChengGeTakeOff, give us a shout."

Cheng Ge took off: "I didn't mean to hide it from everyone, but I'm not really clear about Brother Night Owl's situation right now. He didn't say, so I obviously can't just say anything, right? I still have the awareness of being a subordinate."

Cheng Ge took off: "Also, Brother Night Owl really helped me a lot. If he hadn't killed a lot of big guys, I don't know if I would have been able to escape the Great Tomb now. Luckily I'm out now. Hehe, I've already reached the edge of the Land of Death. It's so comfortable here. I even recruited a group of skeleton minions. It's pretty good to be a little lord of the mountain."

Not Tea Master: "Holy crap? It really is! Speaking of which, the Chief's territory is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the Land of Death, right? How did he get there? It's simply unbelievable."

Logical genius: "From this perspective, the chief's strength is indeed far beyond ours, and must have reached a high level; and the title of chief is given to those at the mid level. The chief, being the number one player, must have obtained higher game privileges. Therefore, it is reasonable to exclude the chief from the ranks of ordinary players."

Wow Da Xi Frog: "Hmm, in that case, we also need to seize every second to become stronger. The situation in this real game is really a bit strange. We don't know to what extent permissions will be opened to players. I'm afraid that in the end, some players will be considered as the official or semi-official staff of the real game!"

Sweetheart: "Stop talking, stop talking, I'm so upset I want to cry!"

"."

Looking at the messages in the group.

At this moment, Lin Ke, lying on the bed, fell into deep thought.

It's impossible to hide the fact that real games are gradually opening up access to 'pro' players.

After all, the second-place position, the elite title, and the corresponding privileges have all appeared.

Therefore, it's not hard to understand why Lenovo treats higher-level employees differently.

But on the other hand, they were also wrong.

Even after Lin Ke reached the advanced level, his title as the chief player remained unchanged.

The only change is that he was far ahead of the players and received special attention from the game developers, which is why he has the current operational authority. If it were a later player, they might not have had such an opportunity.

Lin Ke's path is unrepeatable; after all, who can have such a smooth journey as him, and even receive the support of a ninth-rank official before reaching the advanced level?

Of course, things aren't always absolute.

However, Lin Ke was not flustered.

After all, he has already reached the forefront of all players, and even if more real game privileges are released, he will definitely still be the number one player.

Lin Ke has that much confidence.

Just as Lin Ke was looking at the chat in the group, Insomnia and Rain suddenly revealed some news that surprised Lin Ke.

Insomnia and Rain: "Let's not discuss the chief for now, everyone please keep quiet. Here, on behalf of the Countermeasures Bureau, I would like to solemnly announce a message to everyone."

?
Unsurprisingly, everyone stopped chatting upon seeing this message.

Insomnia and Rain: "This is a big deal, and I hope everyone will keep it quiet. Of course, we don't need to keep it a secret for long, since I think it won't be able to be kept quiet for long."

Unable to see the moon: "An unknown wormhole has appeared in the Arctic? That's exactly what I wanted to say. Here, on behalf of some of the big investors behind it, I'm issuing recruitment information."

"Players of the fourth tier and above, as long as they are willing to accept the recruitment of my patrons, can discuss money, status, or even core corporate shares of large conglomerates and families, including marriage alliances."

Insomnia and Rain: "@Can'tSeeTheMoon, isn't your Bright Moon Pavilion being a bit too unruly?"

Can't see the bright moon: "During this special period, I apologize. We at Bright Moon Pavilion have no intention of provoking the Human Alliance Countermeasures Bureau. It's just that the people in our group are all high-level players, and at this time, Bright Moon Pavilion naturally cannot give up on winning over these high-level players, right?"

“Fair competition, just like an auction, where whoever bids the highest, or even whoever the players think is suitable, is entirely up to everyone’s free will, right? I shouldn’t be breaking the rules, should I?”

Not Tea Master: "Huh? Sister Yu, Mingyue, what are you talking about? I'm completely confused. What wormhole? Are aliens attacking us?"

Wadah Frog: "I think that's pretty accurate. So, Earth will soon be in chaos?"

Human Sweetie: "Huh? Aliens? No way? Don't scare me! I'm a scaredy-cat."

I'm just an ordinary person: "Can't we just play games in peace? What alien invasion? Is it something that actually happens in the game? Like how we invade the Auckland continent through the game?"

Insomnia and Rain: "The situation is unclear, but the wormhole does exist, though it looks somewhat like a projection."

"Whether it is related to the real game is still unknown, but there is definitely an alien civilization on the other side of the wormhole that is preparing to attack our Blue Star. Just like the Ragnarok cutscene released in Auckland Continent before, perhaps some civilization has opened the star path connecting our Blue Star."

"Indeed, it's hard to say that this doesn't have the shadow of the real game. After all, before the real game appeared, our Blue Star was peaceful. Now, one incomprehensible thing after another is happening. It's too much of a coincidence."

Not Tea Guy: "Holy crap??? It really is!!! What are we waiting for! Quickly suggest that we get the UN to drop a nuclear bomb and see if we can blow it up! Are we really just going to watch them come over?"

Human Sweetie: "It's rare to be on the same page! I think so too, what are we waiting for? Let's fry them, hurry up!"

Wow Da Xi Frog: "Projection??? I reckon the higher-ups in the Human Federation must also have concerns, fearing that the nuclear missile will accelerate the opening of the wormhole. After all, this is unprecedented, who would dare to act recklessly!"

I'm just an ordinary person: "Damn it, so what are we still thinking about? I think we should all go home now and take care of our families and friends. As for what Sister Yu and Mingyue are going to say next, I guessed it, but I definitely won't get involved. I have to protect my little family first."

"."

So, the Arctic Circle issue was just brought up so easily?
Lin Ke was somewhat surprised, but at the same time, he felt that there was really nothing to hide about the Arctic.

After all, this matter couldn't be kept secret sooner or later, and the People's Federation is probably already preparing to release information about it step by step.

At the same time, it can recruit more players, but Lin Ke doesn't care about this.

Ultimately, when the time comes, there will be an announcement regarding the large-scale, realistic war mission in the game.

Seeing Insomnia and Rain appear, he had something more important to ask directly.
