Chapter 139 Historical Legacy Issues
[Announcement: Player Chen Leying has obtained an ultra-rare item, the Server Merge Card. The server merge protection mechanism has been triggered, and the card will be invalid for three days. After three days, all players will vote on whether to use the item.]
This announcement made the already lively chat area even more bustling.
Zeli: "There's a server merge card? We can merge with other servers now? How many servers are being merged?"
Little Karami: "But why is there a zone protection mechanism? Is it to protect our zone, or to protect other zones?"
He Chubu Fenghua: "Three days later, we can choose whether to use the server merge card. Since it's a vote, the minority should obey the majority, right? Do you want to merge servers?"
Feng Xiaoqing: "The key is that we don't know the pros and cons of merging the servers, and we can't vote blindly. We're a bit conflicted about whether or not to merge the servers."
Yi Yi: "Yeah, who knows what kind of personalities the new people who come in after the merge will have? If they're a bunch of troublemakers, then our district will be even more chaotic."
Little Karami: "I think it's also possible that our district was merged into another district? After all, our district only has 40,000 people left."
Sleep is the most important thing, no matter what: "Forget it, I still have three days to think about it, I'll deal with it then."
"..."
Opinions among players are divided regarding the server merge card.
When Chen Leying heard the 996 announcement, she was stunned at first, then she twitched the corner of her mouth.
The protection mechanism is ineffective after three days?
It seems the 996 work schedule is getting desperate.
But what kind of trouble is it planning to cause during these three days?
Chen Leying sent the [Region Merge Card] to the three-person group chat.
Meng Qingyin immediately clicked to view.
[Server Merge Card: Golden Legend. Allows merging of any designated server, or combining two servers into one. All players collectively choose the new server management system. Currently locked; will be usable in three days.]
It's actually a legendary gold-tier card?
Moreover, this server merge card is not just a simple server merge; it also allows players to collectively choose a new management system!
This is a golden opportunity for them to escape the 996 work schedule!
No wonder the 996 work schedule is in a panic and issued this announcement to buy time.
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "There's such a powerful item! It's a legendary gold-tier item! This is an eye-opener!"
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "But why can't we use it immediately? And we have to have players vote on whether to merge the servers. What if someone disagrees? Then the card will be invalid?"
Mengmeng: "The voting is fine, but I'm afraid something might go wrong with the 996 work schedule these three days."
Chen Leying: "Yes, it's getting impatient and won't let us merge the regions so easily."
"This insidious system must know that we won't choose it as our management system after the server merge, so it's stalling for time and trying to pull some dirty tricks!"
Mengmeng: "The next three days are crucial. It will not be easy to convince the vast majority of people to firmly choose to merge the districts."
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "But how can the three of us persuade other players to merge servers?"
Chen Leying: "We'll deal with whatever comes our way, and we'll make a decision only after there's concrete action on the 996 work schedule."
Drinking strong liquor to drown his sorrows: "Okay!"
After the three finished discussing, the group chat fell silent.
Meng Qingyin went to attend to her own business.
She posted a buy-one-get-one-free promotion on menstrual products in the chat area today, so I need to prepare the products carefully.
She got a screenshot of the list from Qin Jiu. The nicknames on it were densely packed, and you could tell at a glance that it was a lot of work.
But there's no way around it; since we've already promised to give back to the players, we have to keep our word.
The factory has limited production capacity, so she plans to deliver gradually.
The night was unusually calm, much like the calm before a storm.
...
As a new day dawned, the players were somewhat surprised to find that there were no annoying goblins blocking their way today!
Not only that, the drop rate of supply boxes has also returned to normal.
Except for the fact that the target mileage has not decreased to the previous level, everything seems to have returned to the way it was before.
Little Laozi: "How strange, how come the goblins suddenly disappeared overnight?"
His mind went blank: "I don't know, I'm wondering about it too."
I'm an unlucky person: "Not only that, but there are also more supply boxes now."
Mary from Northeast China: "Could it be that the 996 work culture has suddenly given up?"
996 Happy Every Day: "If it really has a change of heart, it should change our nicknames back first!"
"It's just a nickname, why are you making such a fuss about it? We should be grateful that 996 has restored everything to its original state!"
Don't argue with a fool: "Oh right, you're right! Don't you even think about who brought these difficulties here?"
The chat area was bustling when a message from 996 arrived.
[Dear players, hello everyone, this is 996. Recently, many players have expressed some complaints about me, namely the increased target mileage, the increased number of goblins, and the lower drop rate of supply crates. I've noticed these issues, but they were simply legacy problems. However, I've now resolved them, so everyone can focus on developing their characters in peace.]
No Brains: "I always said that 996 is a good thing, it's been trying to solve problems! But some people are not only ungrateful, they're also being sarcastic and mean-spirited. I feel sorry for it!"
Life on the Road: "Historical issues? In other words, these are all legacies of 007? Then we really shouldn't blame 996."
Xiaoxiao Yumian: "I don't know what the situation will be like after the servers are merged. Let's not merge them. It's good enough to maintain the status quo as it is now."
The Beast King roared, "But merging servers might not necessarily not affect our development, right? Why oppose merging servers?"
Wei Ai cursed, "Are you stupid? After the servers are merged, will there still be a system as good as 996?"
007: "Yes, isn't 007 a thousand times, ten thousand times better?"
Xiaoxiao Yumian: "Hehe, just look at all the problems 007 left behind, can't you see its capabilities? It won't make us better, it will only be a burden to us!"
Simply put: "History is written by the victors. The current victors work 996, so they're bound to smear 007! These kinds of questions never existed when 007 was in charge."
The elderly man said, "You're too young. Let the dust settle."
This is only the first day, and after 996 made a brief statement, a group of players expressed their unwillingness to merge servers.
If the 996 work schedule is followed by more tactics to win people over, the vast majority of people will likely lose their way.
Sure enough, in the following two days, 996 launched a "zero-yuan purchase" event.
The so-called "zero-dollar purchase" means that players can take away the goods in any store, gas station or other business establishment without spending a single penny!
This event has led more players to switch sides and join the 996 camp.
