NPC Town-building Game-Chapter 49.2 - Exchange Forum

Chapter 49 (2/2): Exchange Forum

My character leveled up.

Well, I don’t know how I leveled up.

……The Evil God side probably gains experience and level up by destroying the villages of players. However, the level up requirements for Holy God side is unknown.

I imagine that it happens when the villages prosper.

I regret not asking more from the bandman, but I didn’t have the leeway to continue the interrogation in a situation where I didn’t know when I will get attacked.

“If you think of this in the terms of the game, if the village is of certain size or you meet certain hidden requirements, you will level up. Or, it will be leveled up after gathering all the experience points.”

Some quests…..in other words, a task is presented in the game and you will gain experience points each time you clear it. You level up if your total exceeds the specified value.

This is the most common pattern. Suppose if we add all the experience points gained from defeating monsters and event clearing as well as enduring the Temptation of the Evil God.

“The villagers are alive in the game world, gained experience in some way and I gained a level. Can’t I think it like that?”

There are hopeful observations in this conjecture but if this is correct…..it would serve as a evidence that the villagers are alive.

“That’s right. What I can do is believe that the villagers are alive. All of them have escaped safely!”

It is better to have some hope than none. Lets assume that train of thought is correct.

“He said that you can do more things at Level 2.”

New items are added to the list of the miracles. I selected the new option.

《Exchange Square》

The screen is quickly filled with a picture after the click.

“It looks just like an Internet forum.”

The design is very similar to the SNS boards in Japan.

Number of threads are lined up and listed in points.

Lets take a quick look at it.

1: Thread to verify the monsters (179)

2: Game Advocacy (234)

3: What do you think is the most captivating god? (2)

4: How to efficiently earn points? (16)

5: Do you know about the prohibitions?(3)

6: Thread where Senior players of level 3 or higher gather (7)

“What’s this”

My impression comes out of my mouth.

The number of threads was over hundred and when I clicked on one for a trial, the posts were similar to the ones on the forums.

“I’m nervous like a fool …”

The same notes were written on each thread.

1. Profile name and real address is prohibited
2. Writing something which can identify a player is also prohibited
3. Please do not slander the Gods
4. No lies is allowed on this thread.
5. The prohibitions are not to be shared.

There are lots of things but one things is clear and that is the information which I can obtain has increased.

I decided to take a look at “27: Beginner Questions Thread” which seemed most useful.

“Frequently asked questions and answers are put together.”

This will be great to study.

《The name of the character’s point will be same as the name of the God.》

I am the God of Fate so its Fate points.

《The number of Gods is still unknown, but there is only one player per God. So players cannot control same God.》

So I am the only player of God of Destiny??

<< The players are divided into the Holy God and Evil God camps. Direct battle between the Gods is prohibited. However, the penalties are unknown.>>

The basics are clear. I believe no one is stupid enough to try anything which can lead to game over.

《It seems that there are 5 Levels. Upto Level 4 is certain.>>

So level 2 is only clearing the tutorial?

《Game is over when the power of miracles is used for Criminal acts.》

This seems different for the Evil God players. Manipulating someone should be a criminal act.

《Texts of some threads are invisible to the characters depending on their level. No limit for Black text, yellow text Level 3 or higher and Red text for Level 4 or higher.>>

When I clicked on “Level 3+ Advanced Players Gathering” to see if it was true, I couldn’t read most of the text.

There is more information to know but I can read it later.

For now asking questions if most important.

“First of all … about the Evil God player directly harassed me, has it happend before?”

There was response after few seconds after writing./

543: Its a troll

545: Hey!

546: Is it a player that only you can see?

This is more useless than I though? Or is my case quite rare?

547: Wait. Wait. It’s too quick to decide it as troll. There is a rule that one cannot write lies

548: Well, are you serious?

549: That’s right. Hey, 542, details!

Oops, the flow has changed. 542 was my post number.

“What to write … He came to steal my Bible because the address was known to the Evil god side. There seems to be a person who wants to buy the book for 10 million yen. Is this okay?”

552: Teacher, he came to troll you! Are you messing around?

553: I can’t see it. Is this the “lying prohibited”?

554: Maybe my ass

What are they talking about?

No wait. There were things which I coudn’t read due to the prohibitions. That should be known to other players.

In other words, is the fact that the Bible in this world a secret matter?

Maybe it was a bug or rare case. Lets think so.

I apologized to everyone on the forum and explained the situation again.

Two months after I started playing the game, I started seeing Evil God players for some reason. I wrote down what I have experienced in as simple words as possible.

560: This is not the right thread. There is a thread to contact the management, so please ask it over there

561: If this is true, it’s a big problem

562: Please let me know if you get a reply from the management

I don’t know their faces and names but I am glad these people helped me.

I followed the guidance of the residents on the forum and moved to the “Question Request to Management” and wrote about the events of the day.

My smart phone rang as I looked at other threads and collected more information while waiting for a reply.

When I checked who was calling, the caller name displayed was “Management”.
