Chapter 229: Chapter 224 New Task and Integrity
Six hours after the game was launched, Finn Lewis got the exact figures from Olivia Thatcher. As the first wave of players entered, and reports from various gaming forums started to directly share the in-game visual experience, the game entered its first fermentation period. Servers that didn’t require queueing before had to start again, and although the number of people in line was not as high as before, there were still over 2000.
Due to the need for queueing to enter the game and the game’s stability, the queue moved incredibly slowly. Lewis had Thatcher secretly increase the maximum player limit on the server, and the final player count reached a horrifying 5.2 million.
This peak online count practically surpassed the total online count of all previous games! Moreover, according to the accounts Finn Lewis had, accounts in the game that stopped leveling up and didn’t make any movements were almost less than one in ten thousand, meaning that all the players were active accounts.
When the news of the peak online count of 5.2 million users was revealed, it caused a stir not only in the domestic gaming industry, but also in international gaming forums. How astronomical was this number? At its peak, Monster World had about 13.1 million global online users. But those were global numbers, not numbers within the Flame Nation. In fact, Monster World’s domestic peak online number was only around 1.2 million at that time.
This number was quite terrifying in domestic terms. Although the number of players has significantly increased, at the same time, the number of games has also increased dramatically. Players are divided among various games, so it’s difficult to have such a high online count again, and these online counts imply that the online numbers of major game companies are decreasing at a terrifying speed.
At this moment on one of Dream’s streaming channels, a broadcaster was live. Although the number of people watching his live broadcast greatly decreased, there were still fifty to sixty thousand people. After all, not all players like to play games, nor do all players have time. Some people simply don’t have the time but love online games. Some can’t let go of their old games, so they came here to see if the new game is worth playing.
“To be honest, as a game journalist, my job is to test games every day and comment for everyone whether or not it’s fun. But those of you watching my live broadcast today might’ve noticed that I’ve been completely captivated by this game. Damn, all biases aside, I’m really feeling drawn in and can’t stop playing. Is it really okay for me to just focus on this game?”
“66666666666666”
“666666666666” A barrage of “6666”s immediately followed. Clearly, most viewers have a deep interest in this game as well.
“Nowadays, a fair amount of the audience just got off work and came back home. Let me reintroduce this to you all. First, let’s take a look at the map. Speaking of this, New World really is one of the few domestically-released games with such ample content. Without further ado, let’s open the map!”
After saying that, the broadcaster opened the map directly. Outside viewers who were watching the broadcast initially wondered how large the map was. But when the broadcaster opened the map, they found themselves speechless. The whole screen for the map was black, causing an immediate storm of “66666666”s to appear in the comments.
“Is broadcasting like this really okay? Isn’t this just a cop-out?”
“Hehe, you might think I’m just avoiding the issue, but I’m really not. Look at the map, you should know, although this is a world map, because we haven’t opened up the line of sight, we can’t see what the other areas look like. Now, let’s look at the map of our current locale. ” With this, the broadcaster began to zoom in on the map.
He quickly expanded the Novice Village location where he was situated. He had already left Novice Village, and after zooming in, the extent of the map he had explored seemed quite large. But, in the grand scheme of the expansive game map, it actually only took up a very small part.
“Do you guys get it now? Based on the leveling conditions provided by the game officials, the maximum level of the game is currently 80. But based on the game materials we’ve obtained, our location is the main city, in other words, above us are the second-level main city and first-level main city. The highest level areas around the main city currently range from levels 65 to 70.”
“This means that before reaching level 70 , you can roam freely within the three main cities. Would the content for just 10 levels within the second and first-level main cities be enough? So, I think there’s probably a ton of game content we haven’t come across yet! Just look at this map! Moreover, this game is different from others. Many people are very curious about what’s beyond the known map and want to open the map to take a look. But unfortunately, monsters that out-level our game characters by 10 levels become red-named monsters-meaning they will actively attack. And, whatever you do, don’t compare them to the sluggish monsters from other games.”
“The aggressive red-named monsters in this game are incredibly fierce. If you guys don’t believe me, let me show you.” After saying this, the broadcaster went straight to hunt down a red-named monster. Upon stepping into the monster’s aggro radius, the small monster immediately glared at him with red eyes and practically pounced at his character in an instant with incredibly agile movements!
It didn’t take ten seconds before the anchor’s character was brutally murdered on the ground. “Well, having seen this, you guys should understand something. But I just want to give a shout-out to the development team of New World, is it really okay to make the monsters in the game so oppressive?”
There were countless anchors like this throughout Dream, but the number of players they attracted kept growing. Even Mr. M, who paid close attention to new games, had to admit that had indeed created an excellent game this time. And the impact of this game on the Gaming Alliance was significant! You should know that the domestic games market is pretty much monopolized by the Gaming Alliance. Of course, since the Gaming Alliance focuses on competitive games, it doesn’t conflict much with traditional online games.
But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have any impact. Moreover, Mr. M even personally experienced the game. After feeling the formidable performance inside, Mr. M was even more confident in his cooperation with Finn Lewis. However, this is based on the premise that everything Finn said can meet his expectations.
The game reached a peak of 5.2 million online players. If these players spent an average of 10 hours online per day, the daily income would be 31 million, and the monthly income would reach 900 million! This is based on an average online time of 10 hours. In fact, the actual average online time for the first month was definitely more than this figure.
Moreover, it seemed that the number of players was still on the rise.
Especially, if could operate this game to the Northern Europe Federation, the number of players might become even more terrifying.
“Director Lewis, should we throw a celebration party?” Although it was already past dinner time, Yuri Johnson was still eagerly proposing. This number was just too amazing. Even when Monster World first started, it didn’t reach such a terrifying online rate.
A large part of these players were attracted by the game’s visuals and Finn’s rewards. But no matter the reason, as long as the online population increased, that was good. With a monthly income of nearly 1 billion Flame Nation coins, a game like this has never been seen before. Of course, Yuri wanted to throw a
celebration party.
“How about this, all of VVY’s staff members’ salaries for this month will be doubled, including yours,” Finn said with a smile.
Yuri almost collapsed on the spot. Suddenly wishful, he wished he hadn’t asked Finn. He was the CEO now; he could have just made the decision himself. But now, Finn has just given out a month’s salaries! And that’s for the entire company! How much money would that cost! Although he no longer held the majority of the shares in the company, he still owned 20% of them!
“New task, do you accept?” Zero’s voice suddenly rang out. Finn was surprised. He hadn’t expected a new task at this time.
“Look, about the celebration party, you decide. I’ve got something to do, I’m off.” Finn had no time to fuss with Yuri now. He simply left a sentence and decisively withdrew, ignoring the speechless Yuri.
After leaving the company, Finn entered his vehicle. Once inside, he asked directly, “What’s the new assignment?”
“Task: Birth of Toras: Profits are always tied to Toras Enterprises. The world’s largest profits always come from monopolies. Task: establish a monopoly. Task rewards: Unlocks the right to redeem all items below 50,000 points, and the available monthly funding will increase by 50 million! Task failure penalty:

Recovery of all currently owned companies.”
“Task: Challenge from the Darkness: A challenge from the dark forces. You’ve currently accepted the task. Task rewards: Thunderbird Type 7 Body Armour Set! Task failure penalty: ???”
“Task: Noble’s Temperament Cultivation Il: As a noble, one must fully master all skills. Please win over one hundred different girls within a certain period, and the amount of money spent on each girl must not be less than ten million but not exceed twenty million! Remark: Flame Nation coins.”
When Finn saw the tasks that Zero had listed on Olivia Thatcher’s windshield, he was flabbergasted. He only glanced at the first two tasks. The third task was the one Finn looked at first. It had the key words ‘Cultivation of a Noble’s Temperament’ in it. Hell, Finn loved this task!
But after reading it, Finn felt utterly awful. Are you sure the ‘noble’s temperament’ cultivated from this is really noble? Not a nouveau riche, a prodigal son, a playboy? Finn suddenly felt like Zero’s sense of propriety had completely fallen by the wayside..
