Chapter 1046 – One Million online players

“You… What did you say?” Feng Yu looks at Wen Dongjun in shocked.

Wen Dongjun was also surprised. “Damn! Don’t tell me that you really have another woman outside?!”

Wen Dongjun was only joking, but from Feng Yu’s reaction, he knew he had guessed correctly.

Feng Yu: “……” Feng Yu felt he was tricked by Wen Dongjun.

“No… how is it possible? Stop talking nonsense!” Feng Yu denied.

“Sigh… people always say when men will become worse when they have money, and I don’t believe. But now… I changed my mind.” Wen Dongjun said and patted Feng Yu’s shoulder.

“Do you believe in past lives?” Feng Yu asked.

“Past lives? Why don’t you tell me that you are just flirting around because of your business? Never mind. As your brother, I don’t want to criticize you. Anyway, Zhang Han is pregnant now, and other than playing basketball and video games, I seldom drink or stay out late. You… you should know what is right or wrong. Sigh…”

Flirting my ass! I am telling the truth, and why can’t you believe me?

“Sigh… I was still wondering why you and Li Na are still not married. Is it because of the other woman?” Wen Dongjun asked.

“No. Li Na is still schooling. Stop making random guesses.”

“Don’t worry, I will keep this to myself.”

After a while, Wen Dongjun asks again. “Is it because you are afraid you might accidentally reveal anything accidentally, and you seldom drink alcohol?”

Feng Yu: “……” That is because I don’t like the feeling of being drunk! Go away! I don’t want to talk to you anymore!

……

Three days later. The Legend of Mir is officially live. Server 1 and server 2 went live at 12 am. Players start registering, and some players named themselves some gibberish alphabets to be the first player in the game.

This is because there is a contest. The first player, the first ten players, and the first 100 players to go online, will get prizes. The prizes include in-game currencies, experience points, and newbie dagger, and these items will help the players level faster.

This is Feng Yu’s suggestion. In his previous life, many online games will start such promotions to attract players. Some games even have daily contests or promotions at a specific time to get players online. Even when the players are at work, they will secretly log in.

This promotion made Legend of Mir becomes very popular when it goes live. Many players waited by the PCs to be the first to get online.

Feng Yu and Wen Dongjun also registered their accounts the moment the servers go live. But when they logged on and ran to the NPC, they realized the contest had ended. This is because they had wasted time to give their characters awesome names.

Feng Yu’s character is a male Taoist Priest, called “Second most handsome person on earth,” and Wen Dongjun named his character “The most handsome person on earth.” That’s why they wasted some time even despite using high-end PCs and high-speed internet.

The top 100 players were laughing, and some even jumped out of their seats in the Internet Cafés. The players beside them were surprised and looked at their screen enviously. “Hey, can you help me level?”

Feng Yu brought Wen Dongjun to two players, named “UnluckyGod1” and UnluckyGod2,” and traded with them.

After that, Feng Yu gave Wen Dongjun a gift pack, and the gift pack contains the same prizes as the first online player.

Wen Dongjun looks at Feng Yu with disdain. “Didn’t you say we should not break the game’s balance? What are you doing now?”

“Do you want it? Didn’t you see the list? They are the first two players to get online! Your gift pack contains an item with a hidden attribute, luck. You will get more critical attacks and higher drop rates. With this advantage and you still cannot become the top player, that means you suck. Don’t tell others that you know me!”

Feng Yu had arranged two of his men to log in one minute before the server goes live, and they become the first and two players.

Furthermore, these prizes did not make Feng Yu and Wen Dongjun’s characters overpowered. Other than the hidden attribute, the rest of the items are trash. Other players can overcome their disadvantage within three days. Of course, if an expert player gets these items, they will be ahead of other players by at least one month.

Today, NetEase staff did not sleep, and all of them are looking at the game’s backend stats.

“Manager Ding, Server 1 has exceeded 500,000 players!”

Ding Lei looks at his watch. 12.28 am. 28 minutes and more than 500,000 players had registered. This is unbelievable. During the Public Beta, the players’ count did not increase so fast.

“How many players are online now?”

“There are about 300,000 players online now.”

Ding Lei nodded. Feng Yu had told him that many players will try to be the first 100 players to log on, and many will log off when they realized they are not the first 100 players. But at least 60% of the players will stay login to play.

NetEase’s next target is to let that 40% of the players that did continue to play after registering, to get addicted to this game.

“What about Server 2?”

“More than 300,000 players had registered in Server 2, and there are almost 200,000 players online now.”

Another staff asked. “Manager Ding, there will be lag when the number of online players reaches more than 1 million, and you said to open new servers when the number of online players reaches 500,000. Server 1 had reached this target now.”

Ding Lei laughed. “We are prepared for this. Make an announcement to congratulate Server 1 for exceeding 500,000 online players. Tomorrow, Server 3 will go live at the same time!”

“Manager Ding, the number of online players still have not reached 500,000.” A technical staff reminded him.

“We can reach 500,000 players today, right?”

The technical staff thought about this for a second. It is midnight, and some players might be sleeping now. They will be logging in tomorrow morning or afternoon.

All the players saw the announcement and were surprised to know so many players are playing now. The servers had only gone live for less than an hour, and the number of online players had exceeded more than 500,000!

This is only server 1 and does not include the online players in server 2. Some players are planning to try their luck in Server 3 tomorrow. They hope they can be the top 100 players to be online in the server. Who knows, they might be the top player of the server!

10 minutes later, a second announcement was released. “Server 2 had exceeded 500,000 online players. Server 3 and Server 4 will go live at 12 am tomorrow!”

In half an hour, the total number of online players had exceeded 1 million! Legend of Mir is a success!
