Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 205 Three Hundred Thousand Players, Awakening the God of Truth
"We've finally escaped the real war."

"Let's let the players from the first and second rounds play slowly from now on."

"Once the war on Green Saturn comes to an end, there may be many more high-level players, or even a few Saint-level players."

"However, during this period, there might still be some issues with the roles played by players in the first and second rounds. After three rounds of simulations and three hundred days, some players may lose their roles and their eligibility to play the game."

Lin Ke secretly sorted through the information provided by the real game.

It was discovered that, in reality, a month had passed and nearly 80,000 players in the first and second rounds had participated, during which time more than 100 players lost their eligibility to play the game.

Real-world warfare has led these players to neglect planning their roles, and even when they choose a conservative approach, some unlucky ones still perish and lose their characters due to various problems.

Fortunately, during the real-world war instance, players in the first and second rounds also have a chance to guarantee their eligibility for the next game.

After all, the points system plays a very important role in real-world warfare.

Points can be redeemed not only for resurrection attempts, magic items, and growth points, but can even, to some extent, preserve the status of players who have lost the game.

The only difference is that the lost players retain their qualification, and they have to wait until the next game to receive a new qualification before they can start a new game.

As for how much power players can gain in the game after a failure, this can also be redeemed with points.

However, most of these exchanges are based on real-world game evaluations.

Basically, in real games, you retain as much strength as you can; in short, if a player loses the game, all their points will be deducted at once.

Therefore, this can also be seen from this aspect.

Real games are also indirectly requiring players to participate in real wars while not forgetting to plan their roles in the game.

"More than 100 players have been disqualified."

Lin Ke pondered.

I think the current situation is actually quite good.

It's important to know that currently, whether it's the Auckland continent or the Calter continent...

There have been no major battles, and even minor conflicts are rare or nonexistent.

Under such circumstances, one can imagine how unlucky these hundred-odd players who lost their eligibility must have been.

Furthermore, in real-world warfare, the speed at which insect killers earn points is much faster than the speed at which they gain strength by raiding dungeons on the continent of Calter.

In situations where players can still lose their eligibility, it ultimately comes down to a lack of 'luck' in the grand scheme of things. Once you're disqualified, you're disqualified, and there's nothing more to say.

As for the three-wheeled players.

Currently, after three 100-day simulations, out of 1.5 million players, 60-70% have been eliminated.

Green Saturn suffered the most losses among its 300,000 players.

After all, everyone has to participate in the war, and the losses would be great if they were to 'rebel' in the form of insectoids.

Of the 300,000 players on Green Saturn, approximately 50,000 remain.

However, most of the 50,000 players who are still alive have already reached the advanced level.

There are even quite a few players who have reached the fourth tier among them.

It must be said that war is indeed the greatest catalyst for the advancement of strength.

Of the 1.2 million players in the Auckland Continent and the world of Calter, only 200,000 were deployed to the Auckland Continent.

The remaining one million were all thrown onto the continent of Calter.

There are, after all, small-scale racial conflicts on the Auckland mainland.

Given the nature of real games, players who are born at the beginning will definitely face many difficulties.

Therefore, given the generally 'quiet' atmosphere in Auckland, the number of new players has been reduced to less than 40,000 after three games.

Its survival rate is no higher than that of Green Earth.

As for players on the continent of Calter, the real game is even more ruthless.

Because the only way to advance in the continent of Calter is currently by conquering dungeons.

Thus, after most of the players in the three rounds chose the human identity, these players were given the same task of conquering the dungeon.

Even to make it easier for these players to enter the dungeon.

The actual game also grants these players the ability to teleport to the dungeon once a day from the same spot.

Thus, most of these players were newly freed slaves who ventured into the dungeons, making the level of danger incredibly high.

Therefore, of the one million players on the continent of Calter, fewer than 150,000 have survived.

The battle damage was comparable to, or even slightly higher than, that of the Oakland Continent and the Green Saturn.

I have to say, the actual game is really good.

In a broad sense, it can be considered a precise selection process based on proportions, choosing players who are lucky, intelligent, and capable.

Another interesting point is...

Among the non-human players on the continent of Calter, many are even able to become dungeon monsters.

In this situation, Lin Ke used his authority for the first time to increase the intensity of these non-human beings.

That is, Lin Ke increased the difficulty of the game for these monster players in the real game.

Thus, monster players born in dungeons not only face the pursuit of other monsters, but may also be hunted by professional players.

This can be seen as Lin Ke indirectly warning players entering the world of Calter that they should choose the human faction.

After all, the continent of Carter is currently Linko's most important base of operations.

He wouldn't allow players to cause trouble on the continent of Calter as monsters afterward.

Even if some players were to be reborn on the ground and become monsters there, Lin Ke adjusted the training and development system for all of them to minimize the investment required. (See Chapter 180 for details on the real game's tiered training system for players.)

Therefore, even if these monster players manage to survive time and time again, the rewards they receive on the daily simulation day will become extremely meager.

Making trouble?

Don't even think about it.

This can be seen as a measure taken by Lin Ke to prevent himself from being unable to attend to the mortal world while he might be in a long-term slumber in the astral realm.

Other worlds can be chaotic.

But on the continent of Calter alone, humanity must take the lead; even if things are to fall apart, the decay must be contained within the human race.

Furthermore, if the authority of the Forestry Science Department is further upgraded in the future.

He will also set a 'lock' for players on the continent of Calter.

That means all players must not harm Dragonborn, and any player who harms Dragonborn will be punished regardless of the circumstances.

Punishment can be reducing one's strength, or even disqualifying one from the game.

In Lin Ke's world, Lin Ke calls the shots.

Being a little domineering is only natural.

In short, players who chose the non-human faction in the world of Calter were extremely unlucky.

Being targeted by the top player is probably the first time such a thing has happened in a real game.

In addition, it must be said that after obtaining level two permissions, Lin Ke has now completely understood the mechanism of real game player spawning.

The spawning mechanism for players, though seemingly random.

However, over 99% of the players who are born are characters with little strength and influence.

Players who manage to obtain the starting status are all extremely lucky.

Similar to winning a big prize in a lottery, the odds can be seen as a test of a player's personal luck.

Therefore, players who are able to start with an advanced status are mostly considered to have extremely good luck, and the actual level of development they invest in during the game is also higher.

As for whether this process will end in failure, that depends entirely on whether these players' luck can remain stable.

Like Lin Ke.

Having good luck is one thing, but the biggest advantage lies in securing a spot in the first round.

This is how the unique "experimental subject" gift pack, which includes a truly customized version of the game, came about.

As for whether there were other experiments in the actual game, Lin Ke felt that there certainly were.

Otherwise, real games wouldn't have titles like "first place," "second place," or "elite player."

However, compared to the dragon race, other experiments are certainly inferior.

Unfortunately, due to his level-two access, Lin Ke is currently unable to know the full details of the experiment.

But it's nothing serious.

We'll see what happens next.

In addition, Lin Ke also noticed something at this moment. With his level two access, he was already able to control the 'type' of the role a player would be born as.

In other words, on a large scale, Linko has already been able to change the domineering rules of real games that allow players to 'possess' native creatures in a disorderly manner.

for this situation.

Lin Ke acted out of humanitarian considerations.

Of course, adjustments were made accordingly.

The adjustment is that if a player is born into the humanoid or humanoid faction, then these people must be extremely ignorant and feel hopeless and numb to their current situation.

As for non-humans, Lin Ke did not intervene.

For example, magical beasts that haven't reached a higher rank or are even low-ranked don't possess intelligence, let alone any humanistic concern.

Ultimately, these adjustments were made because Linko considered that the Auckland and Carter continents already belonged to his territory.

As the master of the house, he would naturally employ some somewhat 'benevolent' management methods.

Therefore, after this, most of the humanoid and non-human beings should only be ignorant slaves and numb and desperate people who can be 'possessed' by players.

There are quite a few people like that.

After all, the continent of Auckland itself was a slave society, and even the current continent of Carth is the same.

Therefore, it doesn't actually have much impact on players.

The biggest impact might be on players with exceptionally good luck, who may have slightly more difficult starting situations.

In summary, the overall player base is currently maintaining a relatively stable and continuous growth.

Currently, there are just over 22 surviving players in the three-round game.

Including the players from the first and second rounds, there are nearly 8 players.

Currently, the actual number of players in the game has reached 30.

Once 300,000 players have grown up, you can imagine how valuable and powerful that force will be.

Lin Ke has been paying close attention to this matter throughout.

However, we will not intervene further.

Having extricated himself from the real war, Linko originally intended to put the establishment of York on the continent of Carth on the agenda.

However, Lin Ke suddenly realized that he had another rather special matter to deal with.

That is, through spiritual perception, Linko discovered that in the will of Mana on the continent of Auckland, the God of Truth had fully entered the process of being able to revive.

therefore.

Lin Ke immediately used his access privileges to fully enter the Auckland game world.

Yes.

With the current level 2 access, Lin Ke is no longer affected by the game settings of the real game.

He has now achieved a perfect fusion of his physical body and dragon form, and thus completely entered another world.

Upon arriving on the continent of Auckland, Linko was immediately teleported to the Temple of the Demon God in his original form.

Lin Ke's sudden appearance stunned the forest elephant guarding the Demon God Temple for quite a while.

"Your Highness?"

The giant forest elephant opened its mouth hesitantly.

The next moment, Lin Ke, who appeared inside the Demon God Temple and was looking at the entire magnificent temple in human form, immediately smiled and turned to look at the giant elephant that was more than ten meters tall and had manifested a humanoid form.

"it's me."

"How have things been? Have the other races on the continent bothered you during this time?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice and seeing Linko's appearance, which was different from that of humans on the Auckland continent, the forest giant elephant shuddered and immediately guided its elemental power to shrink its size.

then.

The next moment, a tall guy with an elephant's head, standing 1.8 meters tall, hurriedly greeted Lin Ke with a silly grin.

"Your Highness, rest assured. Although there have been many eyes watching around the Demon God Temple recently, so far, no race has dared to show up directly or even inquire."

"It is clear that all the races on the continent are currently awaiting Your Highness's personal summons."

Lin Ke couldn't help but smile upon hearing this.

"Looks like they're all sensible people."

“These are all old guys who have lived for countless years, how could they not understand?” the giant elephant echoed with a laugh.

Lin Ke strolled towards the temple gate, looked at the snowstorm outside, then turned to the forest elephant and said:
"It's not surprising that older people are often more shrewd."

"Very well, the affairs of the various ethnic groups on the mainland do indeed need to be addressed, and I have my own arrangements for this matter."

"Quentin, you can continue to guard this place. I need to take care of some important matters first."

"Uh, Old Elephant understands."

The forest elephant was taken aback for a moment, but still nodded and accepted the order.

At this moment, Lin Ke, with a smile and a nod, stepped into the suddenly rising spatial ripples.

The forest giant elephant stared blankly at Lin Ke as he left in an instant.

Then he came to his senses and touched his chin thoughtfully.

"Your Highness, what region's humans are these elemental beings from? I've never seen them before."

"Moreover, this is the first time Your Highness has appeared in human form. Could it be that Your Highness has taken a fancy to some female human?"

"Hmm, we shouldn't think too much about it. However, it seems that His Highness's strength has changed again this time? I can't sense His Highness's presence at all in my aura sensing."

"It seems Your Highness intends to appear in public as 'Your Majesty'?"

The forest elephant pondered for a moment, gazing at the sky, before slowly walking back to the main hall.

Meanwhile, Linko had once again arrived outside the astral plane of the Auckland continent.

This is my second visit to the Auckland continental astral plane.

All that could be seen was a scene of ruins and broken walls.

These ruins surround the outer edge of the orbit around the entire Auckland continent and appear to be extremely numerous.

This also shows that the continent of Auckland at its peak must have had a considerable number of deities.

Unfortunately, these fragments of divine kingdoms left behind by the gods have now become orbital debris.

Looking at the still-burning black flames left on the ruins before him, Lin Ke did not make any rash moves.

After all, he needs to understand many aspects of the situation before making any decisions.

And the object of this understanding is naturally the God of Truth, who is about to be revived.

Thinking of this, Lin Ke immediately closed his eyes, and soon he was plunged into that familiar dark space.

At that moment, in the dark space, Lin Ke immediately saw the ball of light that had completely merged with his own spirituality.

Within the ball of light, the entire form of the God of Truth had been fully manifested.

It is no longer an illusion, but it is sleeping very peacefully.

The God of Truth does not appear old; in fact, he is quite young.

He looks quite energetic.

For deities, the difference between youth and old age is merely a matter of a single thought.

Therefore, Lin Ke did not think much about the fact that the God of Truth was very young.

At that moment, after only a moment of thought, Lin Ke had already touched the ball of light with his spiritual power.

Then, in the next moment, Lin Ke heard a familiar voice.

The incomplete soul and divinity of the God of Truth have been repaired, and she can now be revived from Mana's will. Does the player wish to use their authority to awaken this deity?

The rules of the Auckland continent are under the complete control of the real game, and now they are clearly able to influence the gods.

Even the revival of deities requires permission from the actual game.

From this perspective, we can see the power of a real game with a strong sense of will.

Lin Ke, having access to the real game, naturally also possesses indirect authority.

So, the moment the prompt appeared, Lin Ke didn't hesitate at all.

"Awaken!"
