24 hours later.
'Ding! Congratulations on winning a reward. Here's a point for you!"
Hearing the incessant sounds, Angus was already numb.
He really wanted to ask the system, "Why can the points be replaced with attribute points?"
"Can't all the points be added to me all at once?!"
Unfortunately, after the voice in the mist introduced the basic situation of Sacred World and asked him to receive the reward, it didn't say anything else.
Angus looked up at the increasing numbers behind his charm points.
Hmm, not bad, it rose to 5,326.
It seemed that the system wouldn't let him out for a while.
Didn't I say that I could enter the game 24 hours in advance?
Judging from the time, the other players had probably already entered the game!
...
At the same time.
As the first epoch-making game that used brain wave technology and a holographic helmet to log in, Sacred World attracted countless discussions the day it opened.
The game had yet to open, but all the players had already put on their holographic helmets and joined the game forum.
"Oh, I have read the introduction of this game that everything in Sacred World is the same as the real world!"
"It is said that every NPC in the game has his own personality and uses the most advanced artificial intelligence technology!"
"Not to mention that, the official website says that in the game, it can even simulate the real sense of touch and smell!"
"Sense of touch? Doesn't that mean..."
"I think there's something wrong with the thoughts upstairs."
"+ 1"
...
Just as the players were discussing intensely, a countdown appeared in the minds of all the players.
"10!"
All the topics instantly stopped. Every player was nervously waiting for the countdown to end.
"9, 8... 3, 2, 1!"
"Welcome! Welcome!"
As the countdown ended, a loud voice sounded in everyone's mind. The crowd entered the sacred world like a tide!
Not long after, the square in the center of the novice village was filled with players who had come to experience the glory of the sacred world.
"Wow! This game is exactly the same as the real world! I can feel the temperature when the sun shines on my body!"
"Really? I'm going to find a sister to try it out!"
"I also believe that there's a gourmet shop outside the square! Can you even simulate the taste?"
"Unfortunately, this game can't customize your appearance. You can only enter with your real appearance."
"Well, I'm handsome enough!"
...
All the players were shocked by the powerful immersive aura of the Sacred World, which was almost another real world!
At the same time, the top consortia of the major countries quickly saw a business opportunity in the Sacred World!
In just a day, the number of registered players of the epoch-making game had reached close to two billion. After all, there were only a total of more than seven billion people in the world.
Just by looking at this number alone, one could see how huge the influence of the sacred world was!
If it were not for the fact that the Sacred World itself targeted players from different regions and had tens of thousands of novice squares, and the total size of its game map was far larger than that of earth, almost every corner of the game would be fully surrounded by players.
Therefore, it could be said that the game would definitely become a well-known entertainment around the world.
If one could nurture a star player who belonged to one's own faction in the early stages of the game, the wealth that this player could create would definitely be immeasurable!
With the injection of capital, all the top-tier guilds in RPG games were bought into the subsidiaries of various large financial groups, and the talents related to the game were quickly invested in the strategic research of sacred world.
In that situation, the guilds in the sacred world rose rapidly. All the resources in the guilds would be given to talented players.
The Gryphon Guild in the United States, the Soaring Dragon Guild in China, the Morning Bell Guild in the United Kingdom, the Thunder Guild in Russia...
All of them were large guilds backed by the top-tier financial groups in the world.
Even the professional players who were originally fighting in other games had to recall their respective financial groups and enter the realm.
The number one player in RPG games in the United States, Vincent, had created many PVP playstyles. He had won several consecutive championships in the once popular RPG games and was hired by the Griffin Guild as a technical consultant with a lot of money.
The legendary first-person shooter in the United Kingdom, Parker, was famous for his almost mechanical precision. He had once represented his country and won the championship of the Asian Games e-sports event. Currently, he had been recruited by the morning Bell Guild, as one of the main forces of the guild.
...
And all of this was to train powerful players who belonged to their own forces in a short period of time.
At this moment, the consortia of the major countries all made the same decision, which was to include the sacred world in the necessary future plans!
It could be said that the appearance of the sacred world could move the balance of the world's wealth!
And this change caused a huge uproar among the ordinary players.
"Oh, so many resources are being given to one person. Won't the core players be able to pull away a huge gap with us in a short period of time!"
"Gap? Who are you looking down on? That's called a heavenly moat!"
"But it's said that there are all kinds of opportunities in the sacred world. If we're lucky enough, will we be able to surpass those core players?"
"The sky has long since brightened. No more dreaming now."
...
Ordinary players envied the core players of guilds for being able to obtain a large amount of resources. However, the existence of guilds was also a huge opportunity for ordinary people.
The simplest example was that if an ordinary player obtained a piece of top-tier equipment in the sacred world and chose to sell it to these large guilds, then he would obtain an astonishing amount of wealth.
In the crowded novice square, after a short period of shock, all the players could not wait to disperse to various quest locations, preparing to start their gaming career.
After all, Sacred World was not purely for players to enjoy the scenery. Completing quests, leveling up and killing monsters, and walking to the peak of life was the way to go!
...
One day later, the square became empty.
Only a small number of players who had just entered the game were standing in the middle of the square. It was far less crowded than when the game started.
After all, most of the players had finished their novice quests early and went to other maps.
At the same time, Angus, who was in the fog, saw that his points had increased to 9763.
The familiar voice was still ringing in his ears.
"Ding! Congratulations on winning a reward. Here's one point for you!"
What on earth was going on?
