Chapter 526: Wave (1)

At noon, when Ling Pingan went down to eat, he noticed that everyone in the restaurant was discussing Legend of Nightmare.

Many people asked, Do you have a quota?.

From the conversations of these people, Ling Pingan realized that the release of Legend of Nightmare seemed to have caused a nationwide storm.

Almost everyone was fighting to make a phone call so that they could get the right to obtain a game room.

On the Internet, the related topics were also exploding!

Just Wechat Read alone had more than a dozen related hot searches.

The number one was Legend of Nightmares lottery.

Ling Pingan took a look and found that almost everyone was ridiculing the probability of the official lottery.

It seemed that the official lottery was set to allow every 100,000 people to fight for the right to a game room.

This probability was almost the same as winning the lottery.

What was even more exaggerated was that all game rooms would implement the real-name system according to the official announcement.

One person per room was limited and could not be resold.

Those who violated the rules would be stripped of their gaming rights and permanently deleted their accounts!

Therefore, almost all the major companies and organizations on all the platforms were crazily advertising.

The content of the advertis.e.m.e.nts had also gone from the initial purchase of a game room to one could sign a contract with a certain company/organization and become an employee of them as long as one owned a game room.

The salary could easily be 100,000 yuan a month.

This made Ling Pingan want to apply for the job.

This was another unbelievable phenomenon.

Was the capital actually willing to do such a thing?

Virtual reality can be so exaggerated? he thought.

Thinking back to the ancient web novels, he had to admit that capital could indeed do such a thing.

On a certain platform, there were already people saying that.

Virtual reality would be the biggest outlet in the future!

Everything in Legend of Nightmare would be hyped up to sky-high prices.

Just like those sources in the past, the son of the former richest man also made a high-profile statement on WeChat Read that he would buy the currency in Legend of Nightmare indefinitely.

It was the so-called point certificate.

For each Legend of Nightmare point certificate, he offered a price of one yuan.

Ling Pingan was shocked.

He actually spent a few million in the game? He thought about his spending on the clan tribe and felt a little pained.

What was even more shocking was the comment section.

One yuan for one point certificate? Who are you looking down on?

Ill give you two yuan for a point certificate! an ID called Xu Feng commented. His WeChat Read certification was the CEO of Pegasus Investment Co. Ltd.

Pegasus Investment was one of the few venture capital firms in the Federal Empire!

Legend had it that its private equity fund had already reached 500 billion yuan!

However

Xu Fengs comment wasnt the first.

The first was the official ID of Federal Empire Central Virtual Reality Technology Management Committee that was verified by Wechat Read.

This ID didnt say any nonsense. It only said two words: five yuan!

Without a doubt, its att.i.tude was the official att.i.tude.

Thus

Ling Pingan was dumbstruck. I spent tens of millions to raise two clan tribes?!

Gangba tribe and insect swarm had eaten tens of millions of his money?!

Ling Pingan was torn with grief.

Such a prodigal! he said. He was so heartbroken that he couldnt breathe.

Im so stupid! he was extremely vexed.

He felt like a coder who paid 1,000 Mozicoin for a piece of beef more than ten years ago. Mozicoin was the worlds first decentralized currency based on blockchain technology. Now, one Mozicoin was worth tens of thousands of yuan!

That was why he blamed himself.

There was clearly a precedent!

New technology would definitely bring about new trends.

Let alone virtual reality games?

Werent the ancient online games novels already written clearly?

It was common for currencies to interconnect, and it was even common for a game coin to be sold for hundreds or thousands of dollars.

However, as a web novel author, he was not seeing the bigger picture.

He really shouldnt have!

However, after thinking about it, he became happy again.

With my game strength and character strength

Its just a few hundred thousand point certificate, and I will be able to farm it easily!

In terms of farming money, who could compare to him?

The atmosphere in Silla Emba.s.sy was extremely tense.

Wen Fengming had used almost all of his connections and resources to invite two retired generals from the imperial capital to the emba.s.sy.

Without them, he was afraid of being killed, so he had to use the name of depression.

That was because he had already heard the news.

The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Silla Cabinet, Park An, who was in charge of countermeasures against Xia, had planned to change him.

Park An was born in the Park family of Gyeongsang Province and was one of the two cla.s.ses of aristocratic leaders with deep roots in Silla.

More importantly, Park An was also the legitimate son of the Park family!

If such a big figure wanted to pick peaches, if Wen Fengming did not resolutely resist, his end would certainly be miserable!

In the history of Silla, the two cla.s.ses of aristocrats had done too many similar things in the past 200 years.

You took the blame, I would take the credit.

Moreover, to make the picked peaches irreproachable, most people would choose to silence them.

As long as the person who really planted the tree was eliminated, the credit would naturally be all his.

Such Silla was naturally rotten, but it was also what the two cla.s.ses wanted to see.

The Silla Kingdom?

That was just a sh.e.l.l!

The two groups of aristocrats after the resurrection of the aura were the souls.

It didnt matter if the sh.e.l.l was rotten because the souls were no longer in the sh.e.l.l.

For example, the Park family, except for those who worked in the Silla cabinet, most of them had already moved to Shenyang.

In the early years, they would return to Pyongyang in the winter.

Now, they simply refused to return, even it was winter.

In the winter, they either stayed in hotels in Fragrant Hills or enjoyed sunbathing on the beaches of the Xisong Kingdom.

The Cui family was the same.

Wen Fengmings father-in-law had already obtained Xia citizens.h.i.+p 20 years ago and returned to Silla once a year.

Most of the time, he lived in Yangzhou.

Silla

To the two cla.s.ses who had already grasped strength and wealth, it was just a poor hometown far away and a place where they could take whatever they wanted.

Naturally, they didnt care if doing so would hurt peoples hearts.

In the eyes of these n.o.bles, the value of the existence of the Silla Kingdom was only a place to provide them with resources and benefits.

However, Wen Fengming was born and raised here.

Moreover, he wanted to do something with his ability.

How is Miss Yin now? Wen Fengming asked his trusted aide Zheng Tai.

Miss Yin still has to serve that young master today Zheng Tai replied. We dont dare to interfere

Alright Thats good Wen Fengming nodded. Just be careful not to let anyone get close to Miss Yin! he exhorted.

Yup! Zheng Tai replied.

But he said carefully, If the country sends an all-powerful envoy over and wants to take over the emba.s.sy

Im worried that the people below will not be able to withstand the pressure!

Tell the people Wen Fengming said seriously, For Silla, for our 300-year-old dream!

Please make sure that they persevere!

The two cla.s.ses of n.o.bles and the people of Silla had long been separated in reality.

Although they still held great power, they had long been unpopular.

The reason was very simple: they were the strongest faction in the country that opposed entering the Federal Empire of Xia!

They were afraid that if Silla became an independent kingdom of the Federal Empire, they would lose all their privileges, and they would no longer be able to ride on the heads of the people of Silla and strut their stuff!

Furthermore, they could not take the treasury and resources of Silla and stuff them into their own pockets.

One had to know that after joining Federal Empire, they had to accept the entire federation system and laws.

They had to hand over the control of diplomacy, defense, and resources.

How could that work?

In comparison, the commoners in Silla were thinking about merging into the Federal Empire and becoming an independent kingdom of Xia.

This was because they not only could rely on Xias strength to complete their own transformation, at the same time, they could also maintain their high independence.

The system of the Federal Empire of Xia was a system that had a high degree of centralization of power and local autonomy.

The orders, policies, and const.i.tutional obligations of the central federal government had to be obeyed and enforced by everyone unconditionally.

However, apart from that, the central federal government left a lot of power to the independent kingdom.

The independent kingdom had the right to make its own laws as long as they did not conflict with the const.i.tution.

The independent kingdom even had the right to have its own self-defense forces.

The independent kingdom could also have sovereignty over the monarch, the national anthem, the national flag, and a series of other things.

At the same time, the independent kingdom had the right to refuse the unreasonable orders and policies of the central federal government and could appeal to the Supreme Court although before the Supreme Courts judgment came out, the independent kingdom had to enforce it unconditionally, however, the moment the Supreme Courts judgment was in their favor, they could immediately stop the execution!

Basically, in the understanding of the world, joining the Federal Empire of Xia was like forming a brotherhood among the Three Kingdoms.

A few brothers swore blood to ally, forming a united and close brotherhood alliance.

They would advance and retreat together, live and die together.

This was also in line with the understanding of the worlds culture. In the eyes of the world, it was roughly the same as the Western Zhou dynasty.

The emperor had the highest authority and his imperial army was strong and invincible.

The central federal government ruled the world with unparalleled benevolence and righteousness.

The metropolitan territory of Xia was the w.a.n.g Ji of the Western Zhou dynasty.

Xisong, Beizhou, and Nanzhou were the Lu, Jin, and Yan conferred by the royal family.

The Fragrant Hills, Donglai, and Ryukyu autonomous regions were the concubines.

The countries were the dukes.

The states outside the world were barbarians.

Under this logic, merging into the Federal Empire would not be a problem because that was equivalent to the King of Silla marrying a princess of Xia, allowing the royal family of Silla to have the bloodline of the Emperor of Xia.

From then on, the Silla Kingdom would also be surnamed Li!

Awesome!

Unfortunately, the officials of Xia had never approved of this logic, which had already been approved by the countries in the world, and even by the people of Xia.

In their understanding, this was a bullsh*t theory.

The overseas independent kingdoms were especially very resistant to this theory.

Along with the destruction of the n.o.bles, Sillas entry into Federal Empire had stagnated.

But now

Wen Fengming knew that this was his chance.

Yin Mingxiu had served that young master well, so that young master had given Silla the right to contact the Realm of Nightmare and a batch of game rooms was obtained

With this foundation, Silla would have the right to negotiate with the Federal Empire of Xia.

He would get a chance.

At least, he would get the right to negotiate.

He would let Silla take a substantial step forward!

Zheng Tai had followed Wen Fengming for so many years, so he naturally knew what Wen Fengmings intentions were.

When he heard that, he became excited, Mr Wen, I will keep an eye on!

But you have to quicken your pace!

And get the central federal governments approval!

As long as they got the central federal governments approval, the two cla.s.ses of n.o.bles could only lower their heads and admit defeat because

They were just parasites.

Parasites on the limbs of Silla.

How could they fight against Xia?

Wen Fengming nodded. I have already contacted a big shot from the central federal government through the Zheng family!

That big shot promised that as long as the day after tomorrow, Miss Yin and that young master appeared at the scene of the Legend of Nightmare press conference

He is willing to do everything possible to push the cabinet to discuss the affairs of Silla!

If successful, it would be the biggest diplomatic breakthrough of Silla in 200 years.

Let the central federal government discuss Silla issue!

Whatever the outcome, as long as the relevant issues came up in the cabinet meeting, it would be a zero breakthrough!

As long as anything started, it would be pushed forward!

When Zheng Tai heard that, his face was filled with joy.

Silla entering Federal Empire of Xia!

If they made substantial progress in their generation, then, all of their descendants would benefit immensely!

Not mentioning anything else, just the transfer of Xias industries was enough for the Silla people to live a similar life to Xias metropolitan territory.

They could enjoy meat, eggs, and milk freely.

12-year compulsory education, universal healthcare system, and omnipresent safety guarantee were all benefits that only Xia citizens could enjoy!

200 years ago, there was a saying in Silla: one would rather be a Xia farmer than a Silla landlord!

That was because at that time, even a farmer in Xia had a bicycle and a sewing machine in his house.

Every seven days, they could see a chicken in their pot while the landlord of Silla did not have such a life.

Now, the gap between them was even greater.

Many poor and remote women in Silla were still wearing revealing clothes.

On the side of Xia, the central federal government had been worried about obesity since 100 years ago.

As a normal person, Zheng Tai naturally wanted to change the current situation in Silla.

Therefore, after he saluted excitedly, he immediately headed to Moonsoon Villa and began his work.

The next two days would determine the fate of Silla!

Ling Pingan held his phone and leaned against the bed, looking at the comments of the netizens on various platforms regarding the Legend of Nightmare.

As usual, he could always observe some strange people.

For example, on a certain topic, someone said mysteriously, Legend of Nightmare is definitely a place where danger and profit coexist. Changing fate is not a miracle there, but a common thing.

But the person also reminded everyone: since the profit is so big, the risk wont be small! If someone obtains the game room, please be careful after entering! Because this is not just a game. It may also cost your life.

Under this comment, there were countless conspiracy theorists comments.

Same as two days go, many people were talking about strange things like superpowers and magic art.

There were even people who screenshot the advertis.e.m.e.nt of Legend of Nightmare in the comment section and started to a.n.a.lyze it seriously, especially the bloodline list that appeared in the advertis.e.m.e.nt.

Then, after a group of people carefully a.n.a.lyzed it, they concluded: if you entered the Legend of Nightmare and obtained the so-called point certificate, you must not sell it casually!

Because

5 yuan for 1 point certificate was definitely a bargain!

The reason was that they cut off a clear bloodline exchange price in the list.

Kunwu bloodline: 850,000 nightmare points.

With 5 yuan for 1 point, it only needed less than 5 million yuan to exchange for such a heaven-defying bloodline.

This was simply a joke!

Thus, someone took the matter seriously and asked the actual price of nightmare points.

And a guy who was certified as a senior financial pract.i.tioner answered this question in the comment section.

He used complex mathematical formulas, financial and economic principles to a.n.a.lyze everything from demand to supply, as well as the value.

In the end, he came to a conclusion: the real price of nightmare points was probably even higher than Mozicoin!

It was even possible that nightmare points would surpa.s.s real money and become a real hard currency similar to gold.

It would become the reserve currency of the central banks!

Ling Ping an shook his head.

He didnt know much about economics, finance, or mathematics but he knew that no country would watch a virtual game currency take the place of their own currency!

But

In his last message, that person wrote: the above a.n.a.lysis was based on the foundation that Legend of Nightmare could give people superpowers!

Ling Pingan laughed as well.

That person was also a.n.a.lyzing blindly!
