Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player

Chapter 360: A change in the air

The third evaluation theme was ‘Legacy,’ which Leo found to be a fascinating and thought-provoking choice by the game developers.

By selecting ‘Legacy’ as their theme, the developers were encouraging players to go beyond the conventional boundaries of gaming, pushing them to leave a lasting mark in the virtual world.

Furthermore, the developers clarified that it didn’t matter if the legacy left behind was positive or negative; with both infamy and fame being given equal importance in the evaluation criteria.

This inclusive approach meant that players were free to choose their own paths on whether they wanted to be celebrated heroes or notorious villains.

Hence by removing the moral constraints typically found in games, the developers encouraged players to fully explore their creativity and ambitions, with the only emphasis being that all players should strive for greatness and avoid being stuck in mediocrity.

“Whoa…. All hell is surely going to break loose now—

With the developers officially suggesting that all players adopt a ‘Go Big or Go Home’ approach, I think a majority of the players are going to move to the dark side as gaining infamy is easier within the game world than gaining fame” Leo noted, as he could already seen the chaos that was about to unfold in the coming weeks.

*********

Unlike Leo, who was only getting the information on what the third evaluation criteria was going to be like, just now, Cervantez already had an idea about what it was going to be like ages ago.

A big reason behind why he chose to administer a region as a Baron prior to this announcement was because becoming a regional administrator was one of the best ways to leave a lasting legacy within the game, as now his guild could literally paint and entire Barony in its own colors, impacting the culture of the place forever.

Also with the demon war undoubtedly reaching his door-steps within the coming months, Cervantez knew that he would have plenty of chances to gain big merits, establishing himself as one of the most impactful players in the game.

However, what he felt unsure about this time around was how the influx of new players was going to impact this equation, as if there were two big changes within the world of Terra Nova this time compared to his past life, it was

1)The rise of the anti-establishment ‘uprising’ faction, which was gaining more and more support every passing day.

2)The influx of new players which significantly complicated things compared to before.

“I can’t rely on my past knowledge anymore.

If I try to predict future events based on my past knowledge, then it will only cause more harm than good going forward, so I guess my reincarnation advantage ends here.

What I need to work with now is solid facts and a fast, reliable information network.

I need to create a web of information anyhow, because information will be key in the future…. With the faction having access to the best information being able to make the best decisions” Cervantez said to himself, as he realized that his future knowledge was no good anymore and that he needed to find a reliable source of real time news if he wanted to stay a step ahead of the curve in the future.

( Meanwhile, ChaosBringer )

Everything was finally lining up perfectly for ChaosBringer, who recognised the criteria for the ‘Third Evaluation’ as his biggest opportunity for expansion.

If his guild offered anything at all to the common players, it was a promise of greatness, and hence with the influx of new players and the new evaluation criteria being announced, ChaosBringer finally felt like he could gather enough members needed to officially launch his rebellion movement.

With the insane amount of money that he made during the grand tournament and the way he had set-up his core team over the past months, his uprising guild was now too deep-rooted within the fabric of society for any government establishment to be able to weed them out easily.

On every street of the capital they owned a business, in the basement of whom they operated an armory or a secret hideout.

His guild members were well paid, well stocked and had now gained significant experience evading the law since many of them were infamous players wanted for their many crimes.

Up-till now, ChaosBringer only made passive moves and never tried to make a big-splash as he feared the backlash of the establishment, however, after months of preparation, he now finally felt prepared to launch an official rebellion movement.

“Our current membership count is at 3.8 million members and 120,000 NPC mercenaries.

In light of the new evaluation criteria, the top management has decided to expand this count to 4 million members and 150,000 NPC mercenaries in the next month.

So focus all your efforts in expanding our member count in the coming month.

As per my understanding, our time has come and after we hit the targets set by the senior management, I think we will finally begin with our real mission and come to the light.

So do your best….

As the countdown has officially begun” ChaosBringer wrote in the official management group- chat, causing a frenzy to break-out within the department leaders.

“Holy Shit! It’s about to go down isn’t it? The new theme aligns perfectly with our agenda and I don’t think it’s a coincidence….. Our top management is too powerful! I think we will secure promotions for all our members!”

“Glory to the uprising! Our time has come!”

“Time to expand our departments like crazy…. Of Course I think we should give preference to veteran players first, however, if we fail to hit numerical quota then I don’t think it’s too bad to recruit newbies either as sooner or later they will catch up with the rest of the pack”

“Time for us to emerge from the shadows! I have been waiting for this day since forever! Glory to Uprising!”

The department leaders’ group chat went absolutely mental after ChaosBringer’s post, as they too could feel the incoming change in the air.
