Chapter 1777 1777: Guild Battlefield Map
The members of Quan Zhen Sect are all exceedingly cunning. To get them to fully commit to their tasks, they need to see the benefits clearly.
Having been with Quan Zhen Sect for so long, Wang Yu naturally understands these people's temperament.
If they don't see the usefulness of the points, while they won't outright neglect their duties, they certainly won't put in their best effort. Now that they see that points can be exchanged for so many essential items, they are naturally excited and ready to give their all, without Wang Yu needing to say anything further; these guys will throw themselves into it wholeheartedly.
Seeing everyone so motivated, Fearless dared not provoke their anger. He smiled and opened the guild battlefield mode, and soon everyone entered the matchmaking interface.
Compared to team battles, the matchmaking for guild battlefield mode is much slower. After all, everyone is quite busy, and no guild is as idle as Quan Zhen Sect. Even if there is, it would likely be a small guild not much larger than Quan Zhen Sect. They know their own strength and certainly wouldn't come to the battlefield to humiliate themselves.
After waiting a full minute, the matchmaking interface finally displayed the name of a guild.
Guild Name: Spring River Water Warms, Ducks First Know.
Guild Size: 974.
Would you like to fight?
"Tsk, tsk, tsk…"
Seeing the guild information on the public screen, everyone couldn't help but express their astonishment.
Players in large guilds usually have less free time, and the larger the guild, the more so. Thus, guilds with thousands of members are unlikely to join the battlefield. Additionally, the matchmaking mechanism for guild battlefields is different from that of the Demon Valley; to prevent small guilds from lacking a gaming experience, guild battlefields match based on the overall strength of the guild. The fact that they were matched with a guild of nearly a thousand members right away shows that there aren't many guilds like Quan Zhen Sect that are idly participating in battlefields, enough to disrupt the matchmaking mechanism.
"Eh?"
While everyone was in awe, the player named Frost Blade displayed a peculiar expression upon seeing the guild name on the public screen.
"What's wrong?" Fearless asked instinctively. "Do you know someone from this guild?"
Frost Blade is someone who enjoys visiting forums, and he has seen a wide variety of people and things. Whenever he shows such an expression, it usually means he has encountered someone or a guild he knows.
"I don't know them…"
Frost Blade shook his head and said, "But I have heard of them. This studio is quite famous in the community."
Frost Blade can be considered a semi-professional player, and the community he refers to is certainly the professional players' studio circle.
"A studio?" Spring Halo stroked his chin and said, "How come I haven't heard of it?"
Aside from Frost Blade, Spring Halo has had the most interaction with studios among Quan Zhen Sect members, yet he has no recollection of this guild.
"It's normal that you haven't heard of them", Frost Blade chuckled. "Not only are you unable to connect with them, but none of us really can."
"Why is that?" Spring Halo asked, puzzled.
"Do you participate in the arena?" Frost Blade glanced at Spring Halo and said, "These guys are professional players… They dominate the high tiers of the arena for years, and their clients are all big guild players."
"So that's what they do!"
Upon hearing Frost Blade's explanation, Spring Halo suddenly realized, revealing a look of disdain.
The high tiers of the arena are a threshold that ordinary players cannot reach.
Players from big guilds value their time, of course, and they wouldn't waste energy on the arena, so anything they can pay for, they will not spend time on. The Sanguine Alliance once sought Wang Yu's services for boosting ranks.
These big guild players are all image-conscious and would definitely not openly promote the fact that they paid for rank boosting.
Thus, even though experts know that there are players who engage in this kind of profession, those who have not had much contact with the studio circle might not know who is doing it.
However, regarding this profession of boosting, everyone holds it in contempt… because this line of work offers no real convenience to ordinary players; instead, it directly impacts the gaming experience. In the gaming world, boosters are often referred to as a "cancer" in esports, and even players from studios look down upon this profession.
Even the sneaky members of Quan Zhen Sect scoff at it.
"Don't underestimate them."
Seeing Spring Halo's expression, Frost Blade reminded him, "What they do may be underhanded, but their skills are not weak at all. We should not take them lightly."
Frost Blade's words are not baseless; these players set the threshold for the arena, with skill levels positioned below professional experts but above ordinary players—fairly strong, and some even have skills that can match professional players.
Of course, this is only in the context of the arena. It's normal to have a few skilled players, but if the opposing side has nearly a thousand players of this caliber, that would be somewhat outrageous. The game <<Rebirth>> sets a strict standard for skilled players.
"It's okay!"
Fearless said with a faint smile, "Battlefield play is about team cooperation; the more of them there are, the more advantageous it is for us!"
As he spoke, Fearless confirmed the match.
With a shift, the members of Quan Zhen Sect were teleported onto an airship.
Directly below the airship was the battlefield.
The guild battlefield can accommodate tens of thousands of players, and the battlefield map is naturally much larger than that of the Demon Valley.
From the height of the airship, the entire guild battlefield was visible, but due to the vastness of the map, everyone could not see clearly and could only make out the general areas.
In terms of coordinates, the area of the guild battlefield is comparable to the main cities in the game, and within the battlefield, there are various terrains like forests, mountains, cities, rivers, etc. The guild battlefield has everything that the main city has; the difference is that as a battlefield, this map is desolate, resembling a ruined main city.
According to the design, the battlefield will shrink at intervals, and if players have not entered the safe zone before it shrinks, they will be automatically declared dead by the system.
Thus, after entering the battlefield, hiding and playing hide-and-seek is not an option; players can only run and fight until they are wiped out.
Also, within the battlefield map, players cannot use their flying equipment or mounts; aside from skills, they must rely on their own two feet to navigate.
However, as players enter the battlefield, vehicles and mounts will randomly spawn in the map for players to use. To attract players to engage in the battlefield mode, there are also some rare mounts available in the battlefield map, allowing players to enjoy themselves before they die.
To do well, one must first sharpen their tools. As the commander of Quan Zhen Sect, Fearless was currently standing at the front of the airship, surveying the map below.
