Chapter 1712 - 435: This Cultivation Technique Is Not Right!

Chapter 1712: Chapter 435: This Cultivation Technique Is Not Right!

The corner of the Imperial Tomb Village library.

Xie Yu’s fingertips brushed across the light screen, browsing through the post he had just published.

The post’s popularity was much higher than he expected.

The reply sections were rapidly updating; some players expressed their feelings about the companionship of 734 and Ah Tu, some were shocked by the cruelty of civilization’s destruction, while others from the Research Party discussed the development process of the Martial Arts System in the Small World.

It’s evident that many players are very interested in background information.

This is the unique charm that Monster World possesses.

Unlike early simulation games, Monster World does not have a main storyline, nor does it forcefully impart background stories.

It doesn’t require players to engage with NPCs and keep clicking to skip dialogues.

There’s no endless cycle of requiring you to kill a certain number of monsters, return, and deliver tasks.

Then switch from the small map to a bigger map, kill stronger monsters, complete tasks, and receive more task rewards.

From the moment a player is born in Monster World, they are a free spirit.

Players can experience everything in the way they desire.

All stories are embedded in every corner of the map, waiting for players to explore and discover.

Many stories begin with a player accidentally kicking a pebble on the roadside or passing by a scene and seeing an unnamed tombstone... The stories are quietly there, waiting to be uncovered.

This fundamentally differs from games of the past.

It never forces you to read, yet whenever curiosity arises, it is ready to provide you with the key to the subsequent story.

Absolute freedom, in Xie Yu’s view, is difficult.

It requires extreme refinement of the game world, but precisely because of this absolute freedom, it gives birth to the irreplaceable immersive sensation of Monster World.

Details are everywhere.

For instance, the "Information Stone" he holds.

This object, which would likely be sacrificed, surprisingly conceals a past of civilization behind it.

Such extreme attention to detail brings about numerous exploration surprises.

Many background narratives are for players to investigate themselves, rather than being pushed forward by so-called tasks.

After a while of browsing through the posts’ replies, Xie Yu then summoned the "Wind and Scenery Poem" plugin.

As a member of the forum’s renowned Research Party, and a long-term collaborator of Explorer, he has the privilege to directly submit content to the "Wind and Scenery Poem" plugin’s database and participate in editing.

But this privilege is not without constraints.

All submitted content must undergo "cross-review" by Research Party members.

This means several senior Research Party members independently verify the reliability of the information source before it is formally recorded.

Explorer has provided explicit explanations for this, indicating that the significance of the Wind and Scenery Poem lies in preserving authenticity, rather than becoming a breeding ground for rumors.

Any error could mislead future generations in their understanding of the information.

To ensure this, a meticulous and complex review process is a necessary cost.

This rigorous system will be further deepened in the future.

According to what he knows, Explorer plans to gradually delegate editing privileges to all players in the future.

Allowing all players to partake in the refinement of the Wind and Scenery Poem.

Correspondingly, the review standards will become exceptionally strict.

Content submitted by ordinary players will need to accumulate a very high "credibility" rating or pass through more than ten thousand reviews by other players before being officially accepted.

If any guild attempts to leverage its numbers to forcefully upload false information, not only will the review fail, but the entire guild might be permanently blacklisted by the plugin.

Explorer’s original intention has never changed: to make the Wind and Scenery Poem a treasure map for stories within the Player Faction, rather than a blackboard for random scribbles.

Regarding this, Xie Yu wholeheartedly supports it.

Refining the Wind and Scenery Poem is one of the lifelong projects he intends to continue.

He then began editing related content.

[Wind and Scenery Poem database submission request]:

Target entry: Civilization associated with number DAAAV-734 (tentatively named: Qitu Martial Arts Civilization).

Content: Provide a concise overview (within 300 words) and attach a detailed data link.

Upload notes: To be used for plugin entry display and rapid understanding.

...

Spending thirty minutes finishing the editing, Xie Yu submitted the review.

The current Wind and Scenery Poem is an essential plugin for many Research Party members, as well as ordinary players.

Merely passing the Wind and Scenery Poem’s review signifies this history truly enters the "official history" of the player faction.

This differs from the Glory Chronicles.

Glory Chronicles record battles, while Wind and Scenery Poem records everything.

After completing the work, Xie Yu closed the plugin interface and pulled back information related to the Martial Arts Mini World.

The 300-word concise description was done, but what he needed to refine next was the detailed data introduction post.

When players finish reading the concise introduction and feel curious about such stories, they can click the link in the Wind and Scenery Poem, redirecting them to the forum to view detailed data.

This part of the content, he has not yet completed.

Having decided to record, he strives for thoroughness.

From the small world’s natural environment and initial industrial level to the genesis, development, peak, and eventual destruction of the Martial Arts System after 734’s arrival, he needs to systematically compile the timeline.

Ensuring players who click the link have their curiosity satisfied.

Two days later, while busy in the library, Xie Yu received a communication request from reality.

Challenger Tips appeared especially abrupt in the quiet corner of the library.

Xie Yu frowned slightly, his gaming pod had activated a block on non-urgent communications.

When he saw the sender, his expression became solemn; it was his cousin, whom he hadn’t contacted for over half a year.
