Starting From Zero

Chapter 4 (Volume 23) Big Collection (3 From the Bottom)

When the Army God was counting the lists, he used the Internet to collect real information about the people on the lists. On the one hand, it was to prevent and control overlapping parts, and on the other hand, it was also to see if there were any that needed to be excluded. After all, not everyone can bring them. .

Sure enough, although most of the list was normal, there were still problems.

"Black Phantom, Sunfall, your quotas overlap."

"Huh?" Both of them were stunned for a moment.

I explained: "Black Phantom, your best friend's wife is the sister of Sunfall, and you both wrote her down. You decide among yourselves whose quota will be used, and then add another person. After you have discussed it, tell the God of War. "After finishing speaking, I turned to another player. "Jiu Qianyu. Your father is the leader of the Japanese right-wing group. He and our Longyuan Group are basically hostile, so... although I know that you are father and daughter after all, I can only say I'm sorry. You can fill in another personal name. name."

Jiu Qianyu shook his head and said: "If it doesn't work, forget it, I don't need so many places, there are probably only so many people."

As soon as Jiu Qianyu finished speaking, someone asked her if she could borrow her spot. As a result, several people had a dispute. However, they were all high-quality talents, but they did not perform a full martial arts show in front of me. After some discussion, everyone decided to use the simplest method. The method is that I throw the dice, each of them chooses a number, and whoever throws the number gets the quota. The proposal was accepted, and eventually one lucky person got a spot and wrote the name of an extra relative or friend.

It took more than ten minutes to finalize the list, and then I continued: "Please bring the people specified on the list to the address I gave within 48 hours. Those who do not meet the deadline will be deemed to have automatically given up their places. I won't wait any longer. As I said before, don't bring anything with you except commemorative items. I will be responsible for your future life and I will ensure that I won't make your life difficult. If you don't have any other problems, you can log off. Go deal with your problems.”

A player suddenly asked: "What should we do with our property?"

I frowned and thought for a moment and said, "If you have time to deal with it, just deal with it. Just transfer the money to an account and bring it over. If you don't have time to deal with it, just give it up. After all, they are all external things."

What I said can be regarded as a complete statement. Even the external objects came out. Normal people should know the seriousness of this matter.

Everyone said nothing and started to log off one after another. However, not everyone went offline. There were still some who stayed, such as Yinghe Bailing, Big Pot Rice, Bing Ling, Shura Ziyi, Hong Yue and other guild cores. They were all left by me after I asked the God of War to notify them through another channel.

After the others went offline, I said: "You are all the real core members of the guild. Let me tell you straight away. This incident will really kill people, so be careful. If you feel that there are not enough places, Yes, you can tell me and I can get a few more places for you."

Ying shook his head and said: "Bailing and I are both senior members of the guild, and the 14 quotas are more than enough. Bailing's brother is also an ordinary member of the guild, and the quotas cannot be used up. I also borrowed two quotas."

Bingling also shook her head and said: "My relatives have a very bad relationship with our family. He has a quota for Da Guo Fan himself, and I can't use up the quota here. The rest is given to Da Guo Fan. He has a large family."

After hearing this, Big Pot Rice immediately raised his hand and said: "Boss, can I ask for 3 more places? I really don't have enough here! Even the Bing Ling ones are not enough!"

"Brother Big Pot Rice, don't bother Brother Ziri, I'll lend it to you." Bingbing said, "I don't have enough people in my family to use up."

In the end, everyone borrowed it and found that it was completely enough, and I didn't need to give more places. The main reason for this is because several senior core members are in pairs, and they are young. If there are no offspring, it is OK to just take care of the elders and brothers and sisters. In addition, Hongyue's family is a big and powerful family, so there is no need to ask for a quota. She can just go with us. Her family is the first to be evacuated, so there is no need to worry about it.

After talking to these core personnel, I asked them to go offline to prepare, and then I started preparing to broadcast to the entire guild.

Because I gave the notice an hour in advance, by the time I was preparing to broadcast, everyone had basically completed the work at hand or had temporarily arranged a short break, just waiting for the important announcement from me.

When the time arrived, my voice suddenly sounded simultaneously in the guild crystal communication network.

"Attention all members of the Frost Rose Alliance, I am President Ziri. Now please put down everything you are doing and listen carefully to what I am going to say next, because this content is very, very important." After a slight pause, he waited for some Those who are still busy stop completely. After more than ten seconds, I continued to say: "Now, I will issue a guild order. The order content is as follows. All players in the guild are requested to rush to the designated address within 48 hours from the time of this notice to meet with .”

While I was talking, everyone saw an information prompt pop up in their guild information list. After opening it, they saw the address information, but then everyone was a little dumbfounded because they had just heard about the gathering. When I ordered the order, I thought it was some large-scale task in the game that required guild players to gather, but after seeing the address, I realized that it was a real address, which means that this is an offline meeting and requires all players of the Frost Rose Alliance. Concentrate. This surprised many people. Of course, there are many people who are excited, because many people have thought that the Frost Rose Alliance could hold an offline event, but they did not expect that it would actually happen today.

After publishing the address, I immediately said: "I know you may have various ideas about offline gatherings. Maybe some people can't or don't want to come to my place for various reasons, but I What I want to say is that this gathering of members offline is not a simple meeting, but something else. I cannot disclose the specific reasons here. I can only use my reputation to guarantee that this matter is extremely important. So much so that I very urgently hope that you can come and participate in this collective action.”

I paused for a while again to let everyone digest what I said, and then I spoke again: "Everyone has been notified of the location and information of this rally, and what I want to emphasize again is that this rally is not a simple celebration. activity, so what I sent out was not an invitation, but a mandatory task for the guild. This task has been approved by the highest executive meeting of the guild. All active players of the Frost Rose Alliance must unconditionally execute the order. If there is someone on the list after 48 hours, Failure to arrive will result in direct expulsion from the guild.”

As soon as my words came out of my mouth, the members of the Frost Rose Alliance were completely confused. Originally, when we heard about the offline gathering, everyone was just confused, and everyone had their own plans. Some were excited and wanted to participate, some were indifferent, and some didn't want to come or couldn't come. However, the current situation is beyond everyone's expectation, because I actually issued a mandatory order, and the punishment is so severe that it is terrifying.

The welfare benefits of the Frost Rose Alliance are well known. There are countless players around the world who want to join the Frost Rose Alliance. However, even if we become the world's number one guild, the number of people in our Frost Rose Alliance is still only the size of a medium-sized guild. There is absolutely no sense of a world-class large-scale guild. Sometimes we don’t have enough manpower. Our Frost Rose Alliance would rather spend money to buy high-level NPCs or build intelligent war weapons than randomly expand personnel. Such a strict review system has caused our Frost Rose Alliance to become one of the most difficult guilds in the world.

Precisely because our Frost Rose Alliance has good benefits and is difficult to enter, players who become members of our guild are often very arrogant. When they go out and tell others that they are members of the Frost Rose Alliance, they will immediately attract envious and jealous eyes. . But just because this identity is so precious, losing it would also be a very serious thing.

Now I actually use expulsion from my membership as a punishment. This punishment is too severe and makes many people who didn't plan to come tremble. If this were to happen, it would be scary for many people to think about it.

Faced with such terrible consequences, many people who originally didn't want to come began to struggle. Most of them immediately decided to come after a brief consideration. It was not a big deal anyway. As for some people who really have something to do, they are now completely entangled, and they really don't know what to choose.

While everyone was still struggling, my notification immediately rang again. "Actually, I am not asking you to come here to do anything, but there is an extremely important benefit that needs to be distributed to everyone. I can't tell you the specific content of the benefit for the time being, but I guarantee that it must be a good thing that everyone wants. .At the same time, this benefit is not only for individuals, but also invites you to bring your most important people to receive the benefits. When everyone arrives, I will distribute the benefits per person. If you only come to one person, then There is only one benefit, so don’t be afraid of trouble and bring your most important people with you. I will reimburse all expenses, so you can treat it as a free trip."

I paused again, waiting for everyone to digest the information, and then I continued: "Of course, your status in the guild is different, so the benefits will be different. My benefits are the same, whether you are a senior member or a reserve member, you can You get exactly the same benefits, but there are restrictions on the number of people you can bring with you according to different guild levels. The number of people you can bring for a senior member is 4, which means that in addition to yourself, you can bring 4 more relatives and friends. Ordinary members can bring two Relatives and friends, reserves can only bring one more person.

I solemnly remind you again. Because this benefit is very valuable and special, I hope you can think about who you want to bring with you. Don't simply think that you are just going out to have fun, and then bring a few colleagues or friends with you. You will definitely regret it when the time comes. My personal advice is that if you have children, it’s best to bring them. If there are still vacancies, bring your wife or girlfriend who has confirmed your marriage plan. If there are vacancies, it’s best to choose the closest relatives and friends. If it's difficult to make a choice, let me give you a way to judge. Imagine that everyone is fighting for the lifeboat when the ship sinks. Whoever you will give your position to, just bring them with you.

Okay, that ends my announcement. Remember, you only have 48 hours. Those who have not expired will be directly expelled from the Frost Rose Alliance membership. complete. "

My decision naturally caused confusion among some people, but it was generally stable, because those who were really confused were mainly those overseas members, and most of them didn't actually mind getting a free trip. Only a few of them really have special reasons to leave, and they will be very entangled and have no idea what to do. If you say you should participate, things around you are really important, but if you say you don't participate... the punishment would be too severe.

No matter what the members think, I have already done my best. Joining a guild will give you a chance to escape death. This benefit is absolutely unique. The benefits offered by other guilds are scum compared to ours.

I didn't log off immediately after cutting off the guild broadcast, because there were still many things to deal with. The first thing to deal with is the spies that our Frost Rose Alliance is ambushing outside.

Our guild actually has some subsidiary guilds that are used to do dirty work. The identities of these guilds are very hidden. No one knows that they are our subsidiary guilds, because on the surface, we have no relationship. Even a hostile relationship. In addition, in addition to these small guilds affiliated with us, there are also some players who have penetrated into the enemy, such as Matsumoto Masaga, who we arranged in Japan, and existences like August Kaoru and Sakura Rain Kamina. These people must Notice arrived. Of course, Masamoto Matsumoto is already here with us, but some of them have not brought all their family members with them, so we still need to inform them in advance to make preparations.

It is not complicated to contact these secret personnel. Our guild's crystal communication system is not as detectable as the radio system, so the agents have communication equipment, but they cannot be used at any time like a mobile phone.

After spending some time waiting for them to gather in front of the communicator, I briefly talked about what happened this time, but the content was completely different from what I had broadcast before.

Since these spies can be sent out to perform tasks, it means that they are very trustworthy people. Some of them are people who have moved to the control area of ​​​​our Longyuan, and some are also insiders who cannot be trusted, so for them So I can explain it a little more clearly.

"Everyone. Now let me tell you something else. I have just summoned all the players in the guild to gather here in Nanjing within 48 hours, whether domestic or foreign, and I also asked them to bring their family members. Because this matter is very confidential, I did not explain the specific situation to everyone. I just ordered everyone to come, otherwise I will be expelled from the Frost Rose Alliance."

"Expelled if you don't come? Boss, are you too cruel?" a Russian player asked in surprise.

I said very seriously: "I can't talk too clearly to them, for fear that they won't come, so I can only do this. Although I can't talk to you directly about the specific content, you are all people who know the basics, so I will speak a little more openly." A little bit. You also know my real identity, so I have a big secret here. Very serious things will happen around the world soon. I can't tell you what they are, but people will definitely die, and it's Many people died. Of course, governments of various countries have countermeasures, but the specific coverage rate is uncertain, but I can guarantee that no country can truly achieve 100% coverage, which means that there must be people who cannot enjoy the care of the government, and These people must die."

"so serious?"

"Yes, it is that serious. But you know the strength of our Longyuan Group. We have better rescue conditions than the government. Therefore, if you can come to me, I can guarantee that you will be 100% protected. It’s safer than accepting government asylum. Not to mention that if you wait for national asylum, there’s no question whether you can wait.”

"Boss, just wait, I'll be there right away!" An American player screamed and was about to run away, but was grabbed by someone around him.

"What's the rush? The boss hasn't finished speaking yet."

I looked at the split screen where the guy was, and then said: "The United States is considered a developed country, and the coverage rate will be slightly higher, but it is definitely not 100%, so you can decide for yourself whether to come. However, there is one thing I can guarantee , the asylum capabilities of any country are not as good as ours. Even if you are lucky enough to get asylum from the country, the safety will definitely not be as good as mine, and the living conditions will definitely not be as good as ours, so I still hope that everyone can come to my place. Of course, We will not let you abandon your wife and children to escape alone. You have made various efforts for our Frost Rose Alliance outside, and you have paid more than the members of the guild. Therefore, your welfare will be the same as that of the guild. The same is true for high-level people. In addition to each of you, you can bring 6 more people. Because the quota is very precious, so please think carefully about who to bring. If there are not enough quota, I suggest children first, and the elderly can be released. Although discard Parents and elders may not be able to accept it emotionally, but I still don’t recommend that you bring the elderly. Of course, I don’t mind if you are willing to waste your quota. Anyway, I have given the quota. Also, if the quota cannot be used, People can be lent to others. I have no objection to your internal exchange. If there are really extra places and no one needs to change them, I don’t recommend that you just recruit people and would rather leave them empty. After all, I have paid a lot of money to get these places for you. It will cost a lot, so... please think carefully before making your decision."

"Boss, thank you very much for everything you have done for us. You are the best president." A Russian man with red eyes and a round waist like a polar bear said that he was about to cry.

When I saw this posture, I was so frightened that I yelled to stop: "Okay, don't scare me. Are you going to disgust me to death when you cry like a girl who looks like someone else? Okay, I'm all touched. Take action quickly. Within 48 hours Someone has to be here. Call completed."

After cutting off the contact here, I contacted the real core personnel in the guild again, such as Matsumoto Masaru, Sakura Rain Godina, and Christina. I asked everyone again to confirm their The quota is really enough. After all, these are the real high-level people, with less than 20 people in total, so giving them more places is not a big deal.

After some contact, most people couldn't use up all the places, but there were exceptions, such as Ying Yu Shen Hina, who actually asked me for 20 places in the end. To be honest, this person is definitely the one with the most people among the senior staff of the guild. The main reason why this happened is because Sakura Rain God Hina is simply their darling of Amaterasu. This girl has been popular since she was a child. People around her are very kind to her and she has many friends, including a large number of best friends. This situation led to the number of people she wanted to take away. In the end, after repeatedly streamlining the number, there were still as many as 20 people, which was really scary to me. Fortunately, I am also short of the quota.

After solving the problem of personnel, the next step is the problem of guilds.

Originally, according to the plan, if all mankind immigrated together, the game "Zero" would be closed by then, and then all mankind would be connected to a virtual reality world. That world would be a replica of the earth, and its area would be expanded. The environment It will also be beautified. After all, this is a virtual world anyway, and it is obviously not appropriate for everyone to continue to endure problems such as smog, harmful gases, and the hole in the ozone layer.

However, because of this series of events, the plan changed. Because it is necessary to let certain people leave the earth first without making these people feel strange, the final decision is to implement the dual world plan during the immigration process.

This so-called two-line world is actually very simple.

First, let a person enter the world of "Zero", and then the system will lock his state. His helmet will not prompt him for any outside information. Government personnel will invade his room, then use special equipment to put his helmet into wireless connection mode, and then transfer him to a hibernation capsule. The next step is to send him to the launch center and stuff him into the hive-like sleeping cabin storage area of ​​the immigrant ship.

So, what happens if that person goes offline during this process?

The answer is simple. He will feel that he is offline, and then leave the game and enter the "real world" as usual, but this is not actually the real world, but another "real world". This so-called "real" world is actually a virtual game world like "Zero". The difference is that the environment of this world is exactly the same as that of the earth. There is almost no difference. Although due to workload issues, we cannot combine everyone's The virtual world at home is exactly the same as reality, but these small details will only make people confused, but will not really allow the other party to infer that this is not reality. After that, this person will go back and forth between the two virtual worlds of "Real World" and "Zero" forever. When he logs into the game, he enters the world of "Zero". When he goes offline, he enters the virtual space of "The Real World". In other words, no matter what he does, he is actually always in the game, and this is a game that he can never exit. Unless we control it from the outside, he will never be able to get out. And as long as one's consciousness is trapped in the game, isn't the body in reality free to do whatever we want?

Precisely because this plan to transfer some people first will carry out a two-line game mode, the transferred people will actually have some interaction with the real people, and they have not lost contact. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that those who leave first do not understand the real situation to prevent them from causing confusion by telling those who have not left.

Of course, you can deceive those people in the game. In real life, people will definitely make a fuss when they find out that their family members are missing. Therefore, this kind of transfer is based on family units. It directly transfers a group of people who meet frequently, ensuring that it will be done within a short time. It won't attract anyone's attention.

However, because of the dual-line mode brought about by this transfer mode, we have one more problem, that is, the game "Zero" will not be closed, but will always be running. In this way, it seems necessary for us to continue to maintain some things in the game, so I thought of taking away the entire guild. This can be regarded as a disguised increase in the strength of our Frost Rose Alliance.

Because the forces on the "Zero" side still need to be preserved, we can't just gather players. The forces on the guild side still need to be preserved, so after all the players were accounted for, I looked for Vina again.

Vina herself is a physical being in reality, so communicating with her is much simpler. I told her my plan directly and then temporarily left the Frost Rose Alliance to her. Because the players of the Frost Rose Alliance are all rushing to keep appointments, so the players are not online now, and the guild must be managed by someone. Fortunately, the NPC ratio and automation ratio in our guild are very high, so it’s not a big deal if players are not online. Although the efficiency will be reduced, at least the basic maintenance work can still be guaranteed.

After finishing a series of things, I chose to log off. Players from all the guilds and their families will arrive one after another within 48 hours. This is not a simple matter. Arrangements must be made, otherwise it will be very dangerous for so many people to gather together. (To be continued ~^~)
