Chapter 286 Strategy
At the same time, Cassius was watching the video on the forum, with sulfur-smelling smoke lingering around his mouth.
"Yes, they are all images from reality."
"What is shown are basically the major events that affect the situation in Anzeta."
Cassius suddenly felt that there was a pair of eyes watching him from the dark and recording everything silently. Even though his power had reached the peak of mortal beings, he was still unable to peek into the existence behind it.
He continued browsing the forum and found a new post by Singo.
"Server Launch Guide: Erezega Getting Started Guide"
"There are twelve starting points available for selection, scattered across Anzeta, including Strafburg, Waltz, and Arlanburg. But I only recommend one and a half starting points - Northwind Castle, and Batto can barely be considered half. And there is only one force I recommend - that is the Burning Embers Kingdom."
"In terms of career choices, the Burning Embers Kingdom has super-powerful careers such as the Red Scale Conqueror and the Dragon Paladin, which can lead other careers from the beginning. Among the faction sub-professions of the northern countries, only the Lionheart Paladin of the Principality of Bosk is somewhat powerful, but that is the private army of the nobles, and the requirements for advancement are extremely stringent, and the strength is completely incomparable."
"As for the faction, that goes without saying. The entire beta version is the history of the development of the Burning Kingdom, and almost all the main storylines are related to the kingdom. It has an overwhelming level of technology, and behind it is a top-level faction leader like [King of Burning Cinders - Cassius]."
"Let me put it this way. Even if you lose on the battlefield, you can still watch the cutscene of the red dragon destroying the opponent. I even suspect that this is the 'protagonist force' that the official recommends."
"Players who want to develop quickly can start in Northwind Castle. There are many opportunities there. Whether you work in a factory or work in an office, you can accumulate a sum of start-up capital in a short time. As for those who like adventure and want to level up early, I recommend starting in Batto City. There are many hostile monsters in Storm Peaks, so you can quickly accumulate experience."
And Mantou also published his "strategy post".
However, rather than a strategy guide, this is more like a show of superiority, with a touch of Versailles everywhere.
"The Red Scale Conqueror is just average in terms of strength, but the scenery is better and you can ride a flying dragon around."
"Ah? You mean the benefits of a sheriff? Isn't it just a few hundred points of faction contribution every day? You can't exchange them for many good things. At most you can get a dragon blood potion or something."
In addition to these strategy posts, there are also plot analysis posts, half of which mention the "Burning King" and analyze that he is either the final boss or the official destined protagonist.
Cassius browsed through the posts and nodded slightly.
"Very good, the expected effect has been achieved."
"The next step is to look at the public beta test."
He has had a clear goal over the past decade. He has been conquering the tieflings step by step, seizing Northwind Keep, and finally establishing the Kingdom of Burning Embers. This is all for the purpose of occupying the entire main storyline of the beta version of [The Sweep of Northwind Keep], making his own forces the main camp in the minds of players and preparing to accept more forces in the future.
You have to know that players represent not only tens of thousands of "undead", but also the talent pool and technological system from another world. In the middle and late stages of the game, even official forces from various countries in reality have been involved and become the manipulators behind the wealthy guilds.
For example, in the later period of the [Mechanicus], many top scientists from various countries appeared. They built large-scale floating fortresses, and even the president [Iron Frenzy] was reduced to a rubber stamp early on.
And now, Cassius's goal has obviously been achieved, and he even lets the mysterious "system" set itself as the main character in the background.
"It's time to get ready."
Thinking of this, Cassius opened the magic mirror and called Rumple in North Wind Castle.
The ogre mage's ugly face appeared in the mirror again.
"Master, what are your orders?"
"The Falling Star is about to arrive. Tell all departments to get ready." "Yes, Master."
Trump agreed without hesitation at first, then hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Master, there is also the thing you want. I already have a preliminary design."
Trump racked his brains to design this magic equipment. You have to know that this was supervised by Cassius himself. If there was a problem, no one could take such a big responsibility. The design draft was revised again and again, and it went through more than 30 versions.
What's even more troubling to Lump is that the relevant information of this equipment is still the top secret information of the kingdom, and it cannot even be shared with the wizards of the Ministry of Magic. He can only complete the overall design by himself.
The final design was a luxurious golden crown that fit Cassius's head perfectly. It was made of magical gold and inlaid with a variety of expensive gems.
[Crown of the Supreme Dragon]
"not bad."
Cassius took a look and found that he could not understand the complicated magic circuit that filled three pages. He could only nod slightly to indicate that he understood.
"At least that's what it seems like."
Weeks passed.
"Yes!"
"Got it! A spot in the public beta!"
In the room occupied by the game cabin, Ji Ming clenched his fists and raised his hands high to cheer.
He had long been following "El Zegai" through Mantou's videos. He had been looking forward to it for a whole year and finally managed to grab a spot in the public beta with his hand speed despite being single for thirteen years.
You have to know that there are 50,000 places available, and they were basically sold out the moment they were announced.
Nearly a million people have been eagerly waiting for this, but now they can only howl in agony on the forums, and even curse the authorities for not adding more places.
Ji Ming couldn't wait to open the package and put the magical "Erezaiga" game cabin, which was even engraved with runes, into the room.
He first took a photo and posted it on the forum to show off, which attracted countless envy, jealousy and hatred from netizens, and then he lay down comfortably.
Since he had watched Mantou’s videos a long time ago, he already knew the process of the game very well.
[Please enter your nickname.]
Ji Ming thought for a moment and chose his most commonly used gaming nickname, “Lonely as Snow”, which had the vibe of a master.
After watching the video, he also knew that "Erezegai" was a game of face, and he couldn't be too reckless, otherwise Brother Shengguang, who had completely lost his sense of shame, would be a lesson.

"Tsk tsk, this is a perfect human, much better than the Ancient God Bun with 9 Charm."
Ji Ming thought happily in his heart.
