Chapter 108

Dear Domain Master:

In order to better promote the game and attract more new players to experience it, Nightmare World will gradually release the number of places for public beta testing starting today, and will no longer set a limit on the entry threshold for players. The specific rules are as follows:

1. Each player will generate their own unique QR code. By sharing the QR code in the real world, old players can invite new players to join Nightmare World.

2. Each player can invite one person per day. The dungeon that a new player enters will default to the dungeon where the old player who invited the player is.

3. After sharing the QR code a certain number of times, old players will receive special rewards.

4. New players who enter the Nightmare World through the QR code will also receive certain rewards.

Nightmare World is committed to creating the ultimate gaming experience for all monsters and all players. A perfect game should have no barriers to entry. Therefore, we sincerely invite all domain owners to participate in the promotion and actively encourage old players to share the QR code.

After reading the above content, Cen Xun only has the following six thoughts: ""

Putting aside whether the promotional activities are beneficial to Cen Xun himself, let’s just ask why the domain master would work for this so-called official for free?

The authorities can just speak their mind and reap the benefits, but the domain owners have to rack their brains to expand the scope of promotion.

What capitalist behavior?

Cen Xun sneered and said to the nightmare system: "Only let the horse run, but not let the horse eat grass?"

The Nightmare System did not answer, but silently scrolled up the message page. Only then did Cen Xun discover that there was another paragraph at the bottom.

[The domain owner who ranks first in the total number of promotions will receive a mysterious reward issued by "Nightmare World".

Note: The number of promoters is based on the domain currently bound to the QR code promoter.

"It turns out there really is a reward."

Cen Xun said nonchalantly, "Things like this should be written in highlighted fonts from now on. They can easily be overlooked."

But what is the so-called "mysterious reward"?

Cen Xun asked the Nightmare System curiously, and the Nightmare System said that the official would only reveal the final answer at the end of the promotion.

Cen Xun: "So when will the promotion end?"

He didn't see a deadline in the message.

The Nightmare System replied: "When 50% of the real world's population becomes players, the activity will automatically end."

Cen Xun's eyes deepened slightly: "50% of the population?"

There are billions of people living in the real world. Even if it is only half of the population, it is an astronomical number.

"You're crazy." Cen Xun frowned. "Even with such a big appetite, it depends on whether you can eat it or not."

Can the nightmare world accommodate billions of humans?

No, that's not right.

Cen Xun suddenly reacted and realized that he had fallen into some kind of misconception.

Not every spooky domain is like Fengdu Ghost City, which not only focuses on player experience but also returns humans to the real world. For other domain owners, they don't actually have to worry about operational issues at all, just taking on as many players as they want.

Billions of people are distributed to various strange domains, and they can always be eaten up.

Cen Xun placed his hands on the carved railing, his long hair lifted slightly in the night breeze, and he looked up at the dark night sky.

At this moment, Cen Xun clearly realized that the end of mankind had come.

Nightmare World has taken the initiative to lower the threshold, and the gradually increasing number of public beta test places will become a thing of the past.

With the emergence of promotional QR codes, the number of players will grow exponentially, from one to two, from two to four, until all humans enter the nightmare world and become food for the monsters.

Cen Xun sighed softly, "The tide of time will not stop because of the will of an individual. Even if I don't take action, the Nightmare Faction will inevitably oppose the Player Faction to the end."

The Nightmare World's relaxed entry barriers are the best proof of this. The Nightmare Faction's goal has always been to devour the entire real world.

Cen Xun was very clear about this, so he never changed his mind. If the real world was eventually destroyed, it would be better to destroy it in his own hands than to be destroyed by other monsters.

But Cen Xun didn't expect that this day would come much sooner than he expected.

I wonder what Feng Jihan's reaction will be when he finds out about this? This question inexplicably flashed through Cen Xun's mind.

As the domain master, Cen Xun is naturally happy to see more new players brought in by the promotion activities.

But for Feng Jihan, this would be terrible news like a landslide or tsunami.

Cen Xun took out his cell phone and opened the chat page. The last few sentences he had with Feng Jihan were from a few hours ago. Feng Jihan sent him a message telling him that the Heresy Monitoring Bureau would take action against Fengdu Ghost City tonight.

Cen Xun replied, "Got it, Spy Chicken."

Feng Jihan replied to Cen Xun with a string of ellipsis.

Cen Xun edited a new message in the dialog box, thought about it, deleted the text, and called Feng Jihan directly.

So many things happened in one night, and at this time, Feng Jihan was still awake, and he answered the phone not long after.

"What?" He asked in a unhappy tone, obviously still angry about Cen Xun's final blow.

Cen Xun leaned against the railing, his voice tinged with laughter: "I have good news and bad news. Which one does my little bird want to hear first?"

Feng Jihan became alert when he heard this. His years of living together experience told him that once Cen Xun's nickname for him became obscene, it meant that something bad had happened.

He glanced at his colleagues busy in the cubicle not far away, walked over and said, "Let's hear the bad news first."

Cen Xun said, "Bad news! The Nightmare World officials just informed me that every player will be given a QR code. When ordinary people scan this QR code, they will become new players. The real world is really going to be ruined."

""

It was indeed extremely bad news, and Feng Jihan's sleepiness disappeared instantly.

Cen Xun: "Why aren't you talking? You're so shocked."

Feng Jihan sighed: "It's indeed a bit shocking, but it's also expected."

It would be wrong to say that Feng Jihan had not anticipated this day. Of course he had thought about it. From the day the nightmare world was restarted, Feng Jihan knew that it was only a matter of time before the nightmare world was completely open.

"It's a little faster than I thought." Feng Jihan said.

The phone was silent for a moment, and Cen Xun asked him, "Don't you want to know what the good news is?"

Feng Jihan obeyed his wishes: "What's the good news?"

Cen Xun looked down at the city below and narrowed his eyes: "The good news is that your ex-husband will soon be able to eat people freely."

Ten million players. Assuming that each of them can invite a new player after returning, then six days later, the number of players in his ghost domain will skyrocket to 640 million.

Isn’t it just eating human freedom?

Feng Jihan was speechless: "Is this good news?"

Cen Xun smiled. "Well, the really good news is that at least almost all the players are here now. The QR codes they share will only attract new players into my Ghost Domain."

"You should be worried about the other Domain Lords," Cen Xun said calmly. "If players in other Ghost Realms pass on the QR code, new players will be pulled into their dangerous Ghost Realms. Then, escaping the nightmare world won't be a matter of dying once."

Feng Jihan agreed. The only thing to be thankful for in this whole thing was probably that Fengdu Ghost City monopolized almost all the players in the Nightmare World, which greatly ensured the security of the QR code.

Even if new players enter the nightmare world, they will only come to Fengdu Ghost City.

Cen Xun at least won't devour human souls, but other domain lords will.

Feng Jihan asked Cen Xun: "Is there any special mark on the shared QR code?"

"I just received the news and haven't started research yet."

Feng Jihan seemed to have said something to someone else. Perhaps because someone else was present, his voice was much lower when he spoke to Cen Xun: "Then wait until I finish dealing with things here, and I'll come to you later."

Cen Xun thought Feng Jihan's sneaky look was a little funny, as if he was having an affair with him.

There was a hint of laughter in Cen Xun's deep voice: "What a hypocritical little bird."

Feng Jihan hung up the phone with a slight fever in his ears.

Ever since Cen Xun knew that he could turn into a bird, he has been calling him "little bird, little bird" all day long. He really couldn't understand the evil ball of yarn's strange habit.

No matter what kind of uproar the promotion activities of the nightmare world will bring to the real world in the future, Fengdu Ghost Town is still operating normally at this moment.

Cen Xun actually has his own scenic spot under his charge, but the location is very remote and few players can find the stall where Cen Xun is.

That’s right, Cen Xun did it on purpose. How could a guy like him, who deliberately moved his classes to the afternoon so that he could sleep until he woke up naturally, set up his stall in the busiest street?

Cen Xun sat behind a sparsely populated stall and began to slack off with a clear conscience.

First, I opened the dress-up game, entered the card pool, and did a few ten-shot draws to get the latest uniform set. However, I failed and returned to the main interface in frustration.

At this moment, Cen Xun suddenly discovered that Qin Xiu, who was ranked first on the Nightmare World Krypton Gold List, suddenly disappeared from the list, and Cen Xun, who was suppressed at the bottom, became the number one on the list again.

Out of curiosity, Cen Xun called out to Yaxu and asked.

The electronic sound of Yaxu should have been calm, but when this matter was mentioned, huge fluctuations appeared in its electronic sound for the first time.

"That peeping Tom did it!"

Yaxu was so angry that he let out a string of electronic music: "He was resentful of me for making it difficult for him to contact Zhou Mian last week, so he got revenge on me! He deliberately told Wusa that Qin Zheng was playing the dress-up game."

After hearing this, Wusa immediately asked Qin Xiu for confirmation. Qin Xiu felt guilty and stopped spending money.

As a result, Yaxu lost its biggest gold-spending victim, and from then on could only beg for mercy from Cen Xun, the second-most stingy person on the list.

"I hate it!" Yaxu roared in pain.

Cen Xun's ears were stung by the blaring electronic music, and he couldn't help but rub them. "Why are you messing with Lao Liu? He has so much gossip in his hands. He can ruin your business with just one piece of it."

Otherwise, why do people say that Lao Ba is not smart?

Yaxu: "Seeking momentary pleasure will only lead to a hundredfold suffering. It's too late to regret it!!"

"Fourth Brother, please talk to Secretary Wu and ask him to persuade Qin Xiu to continue spending money." Ya Xu begged Cen Xun humbly, even using a long electronic voice to sound cute. "Please, Fourth Brother! The best Fourth Brother in the world."

Cen Xun was surprised: "Old Eight, you were not like this when I first met you."

What changed this artificial intelligence?

Yaxu said seriously, "According to calculations, when Ninth Brother acts like a spoiled child, there's a 36% chance that you'll agree to his request. Therefore, I've decided to follow Ninth Brother's behavior patterns and get along with you, using him as a substitute to gain more preferential treatment."

Cen Xun: “”

It hasn't changed, it still has that artificial stupid flavor.

"But I still have another 64% chance of beating him up," Cen Xun couldn't help but say, "You should go back and rebuild the social module, Lao Ba."
