First Player

Chapter 4 · “You’re meant for this world.”

Seeing the road so close to him, Su Mingan felt a little uncomfortable.

"Sorry, I'm a little excited."

Seeing this, Lu immediately let go of his hand.

Even when he made this move, his tone was gentle.

"...I'm ashamed to say that I only recently became aware of your large-scale layout." Lu said: "If I hadn't seen that world-class birthday celebration video during the New Year, I really wouldn't have realized... you The influence has been terrifying to this extent.”

Looking at Lu, who was a little excited, Su Mingan didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Those people are just fan groups." Su Mingan said.

"So, Su Ming'an." Lu Fan asked: "——Have you never thought about the situation after the end of the world game? As the first player, when everything ends, when humans no longer need you, you know where you should be Position? To be praised as a hero, to be worshiped...or to be ostracized and unwanted by interest groups?"

"Do you view human beings too darkly?" Su Mingan said.

"——Have you underestimated the evil nature of human nature?" Lu said: "Even if 99% of people are good people, we still have to guard against the 1% of evil people. If we wait until a disaster is imminent before taking measures, we will late."

Su Mingan finally understood.

Lu's situation is actually similar to his, or... the situation of all top players is actually similar.

However, as the number one player, he is the most dangerous and threatening one. Because of his influence and theories, a large number of nearly crazy figures have emerged.

Like man-made gods, this can produce skewed beliefs and extreme behavior.

This is how I want to form an interest group on my own.

At the end of the game, the world cannot return to its original order. A homeless person who was originally picking up garbage under a bridge may suddenly have the power to compete with firearms. Death row inmates who were originally in prison were able to escape the fate of being shot.

To cope with the turbulent landscape, they need to take steps ahead of time.

Lu said: "Su Mingan, I admire you very much. The network you have laid out is actually quite perfect. Next, we only need a certain sense of ritual. For example... determine the different levels and titles. These quantitative rules will become your group's The skeleton. We need strength that can compete with the situation after the game is over."

Determine the title, determine the ritual... isn't this just about creating a god that people can believe in?

"No." Su Mingan immediately refused: "This method will never work."

"Really, can't you accept it?" Lu De was not surprised. He said this just to test Su Ming'an's bottom line.

"Then we can use another method."

"What do you mean?" Su Mingan asked.

Lu approached Su Ming'an and spoke softly:

"Actually, what I really think is..."

…

Walking out of the large processing factory, Su Mingan looked a little solemn.

The cold wind rolled the blades in front of him, and his eyes had not yet focused.

The road has left through the [Hand of Salvation].

Lu said that he has contacted several players at the top of the list to create a "peak alliance."

The "Peak Alliance" is a group with consistent interests. With the adventure players at the peak of their strength as the core, and various sub-professional players as the outer ring.

The upper limit for the number of adventure players is tentatively set at nine. The number of sub-professional players can be gathered without an upper limit.

...The core of everything is just the nine adventure players.

Compared to the United Group, these nine adventure players don't have to worry about their identities being pulled out to raise the banner - because each of them is the absolute core of this alliance. Their rights are entirely in their own hands.

The obligation of these members is to help each other and maintain their personal independence. The rights of members are basic "trust".

In addition to Lu, the people who have joined the current alliance include Luna, Alger, and Beiwang. Plus Su Mingan, there are five people. These people are all top 100 powerful players, with strong strength and simple backgrounds.

As for the remaining four seats, they are still under consideration.

"call……"

The cold night wind blew over Su Mingan's face, making his face feel a little hot.

He really didn't expect that Lu would reveal such a big plan to him.

While adventure players and casual players were still fighting against each other, Lu was already trying to create a "parliamentary system" in a post-war style.

Lu is not doing this just to fight for power. He does not want his original homeland to become a place of war between the weak and the strong. He wants to use the influence of this "parliament" to establish an organization like the Superpower Control Bureau to maintain Peace after the game is over.

He said that even if he did not establish such an interest group, some careerists with darker intentions would establish it. Then, instead of handing over the initiative to others, it is better for them, the top players with more capital, to take the first step. At least, the mentality of these nine people is more inclined to peace.

Su Mingan didn't comment too much on Lu's thoughts.

He could see the naivety of Lu's proposal.

For example, since it is governed by people, corruption will inevitably breed. Even if their original intentions remain unchanged now, someone will definitely change in the end, just like the Tulip Princess in Praia.

For example, even if there are only nine people, there will be contradictions and conflicts of ideas. It is impossible to leave the pattern of the post-war world to nine people to judge. This is not a theocratic meeting.

For example, if he passes the level perfectly to the end, Su Mingan will not need this kind of council. He personally has no idea of ​​fighting for power.

But in fact, judging from the current situation, Lu's idea is feasible if it is for self-protection.

In the dark forest where no one has set fire, anyone may encounter dangerous beasts. It is human nature to take the first step to arm yourself and ensure a certain right to speak.

Moreover, compared to the coalition with countless entangled interests, this small parliamentary group of only nine people is simpler and clearer.

Lu was originally a person who repeatedly jumped between forces and had no real power. Alger is a rebellious little gangster, and his relationship with the United Group is very tense. Luna only had eyes for her own Yellow Rose Sword Guild, which was also a small adventure guild with a simple structure. This is even more true for Bei Wang, whose background is as meager as Su Mingan's.

After the game is over, even if the alliance is disbanded, it will still be better than having nothing to do with the original organizing group. At least they have the capital to talk to other organizations on an equal footing.

Lu hopes that Su Mingan can serve as the leader of this alliance.

Even if their combined influence is far lower than that of Su Ming'an, once Su Ming'an chooses to join any other large organization, this alliance in the name of "independence" will collapse instantly.

Lu said that currently, the layout of the first player is the best and most perfect. So far, he has had such a great influence.

Perhaps, no one would know that what Su Mingan originally wanted to do was divert the attention of the organizers and hide the secret of perfect clearance.

…

[Only you can attract so many sub-professional players, and only these talents can fill up the outer ring of the alliance. 】

[You underestimate your influence too much. Those people are not a simple fan group. Some of them can really give everything for you. 】

…

[The first player. 】

[This is all the result of your "layout" so far. 】
