In the lounge, Chen Mo was writing some details about the setting of the land of the guide.

Although this was a mobile game, some of the rules of the state war were rather complicated. This was because there could be dozens or hundreds of players moving at the same time in the same battle. The rules had to be very clear in order to avoid any problems.

Moreover, the combat system of “leading the land” was also very complicated. There were more than 400 combat techniques (skills). The entire combat technique system alone was not something a newbie could understand even after playing for a few months. Therefore, there was a certain amount of work to do.

Just as he was thinking, Zheng Hongxi knocked on the door and came in.

“Manager, I heard that the game Committee is collecting games from the Three Kingdoms? I know everything about the Three Kingdoms. Manager, tell me what kind of game you want to make. I’ll take care of the plot, and I promise it’ll be good. ” Zheng Hongxi was still a little excited.

Chen Zhao looked at him, are you very familiar with the Three Kingdoms? What books have you read?”

Zheng Hongxi said,”” Records of the Three Kingdoms “and” Romance of the Three Kingdoms “!” I’ve seen them all!”

“Oh.” Chen Yu asked,”then, have you read Pei Songzhi’s commentary on the Three Kingdoms, as well as records of Shu, Book of Jin, Book of Wei, Wei Lue, historical Records of the Three Kingdoms, Zi Zhi Tong Jian, a compilation of explanations on the Records of the Three Kingdoms, han-Jin spring and autumn?”

Zheng Hongxi was dumbfounded,’…This, I haven’t seen it before. Manager, you’ve seen them all?”

“I haven’t seen it either,” Chen Mo shook his head.

Zheng Hongxi was speechless.

What the hell, why are you saying that you haven’t seen it!

“It’s fine,” Chen Mo smiled.”The game doesn’t need a plot, so you don’t have to write it.”

“Ah?” Zheng Hongxi was stunned.”How can we promote the culture of the Three Kingdoms without the plot? Even if it’s an RPG, there should at least be a main mission, right?”

Chen Mo shook his head,”I don’t want the plot.” This time, it’s a mobile game with a special way of playing. Don’t worry. ”

“Alright,” he said. Zheng Hongxi looked very disappointed.”Well, keep it up, manager. If you need any help, you can come to me anytime.”

“Alright,” he said. Chen Zhao nodded.

Zheng Hongxi thought for a moment and said,”Manager, you’re not thinking of making a pay-to-win mobile game with the Three Kingdoms theme, are you?”

“It’s also a pay-to-win mobile game,”Chen Mo said.

Zheng Hongxi reminded him,”well, manager, I shouldn’t have said that.” There are quite a lot of pay-to-win mobile games on the market now. If it’s the same card game as Onmyoji, I’m afraid it won’t be competitive …”

Chen Mo nodded,”don’t worry, I know what to do.”

“Okay, then you better buck up, manager.” Zheng Hongxi said,”I’ll be in charge of shouting 666.”

……

In the current state of the mobile game market, it could be said that pay-to-win games dominated the market.

Onmyoji had been running for two years now, and Chen Mo had done some updates. Even though it was still in the top ten of the mobile game market, it had already started to show signs of decline.

After all, the lifespan of card games was limited, not to mention a game like Onmyoji that was extremely damaging to the liver. The only reason it was still in the top 10 of the best-sellers list was because there were not many strong competitors in parallel world.

The current domestic mobile game market was in a relatively chaotic state.

Onmyoji did reap a huge harvest from the mobile game market when it first appeared, but card games weren’t a long-term game after all. The way to play it was relatively monotonous, and most people would get sick of it after a few months.

However, a game that could replace Onmyoji had yet to appear.

However, Onmyoji’s appearance did give mobile game designers some inspiration. The mobile game market had great potential and players could accept heavy games.

The mobile game market was currently in a state of chaos. RPG games, card games, and casual puzzle games were all quite good, with a few top-selling RPG games.

However, there weren’t any phenomenal games that caused a sensation like Onmyoji.

Many designers were lazy and modified their PC games, transplanting them to mobile games to make money, or creating card games. As a result, there were more shoddy games in these mobile games, and there was a lack of distinctive quality games.

The crude quality of the game wasn’t the main point. The main point was the way the game was played. There were only slight innovations and no revolutionary changes.

As for mobile card games, they had almost exhausted all of their playstyles. After Onmyoji, there were still a few decent card games, but the players were already sick of them.

It was getting harder and harder to make money from mobile card games.

Everyone was looking forward to the birth of a better way to play.

……

12th of October, the second round of the S1 finals would begin.

The competition continued. This time, the competition schedule was even more brutal. From the 12th to the 15th, they had to finish a group match every day, which would directly determine the fate of these teams.

The popularity of the second round of the group competition was basically the same as the first round. This number could only be surpassed in the semi-finals or even the finals.

In the end, the four teams that qualified for the next round were settled.

The situation in Group A, B, and C was relatively clear.

In Group A, NRG and DG would advance, in Group B, IF and OST would advance, and in Group C, VSG and MAD would advance.

Among them, because the teams in the group were weaker, NRG advanced with a perfect win record, with a final score of 60. In Group B, IF lost to OST in the second round, and they won against OST in the tiebreaker match to advance to the next round. In Group C, VSG from Europe and MAD from Korea advanced.

What was more surprising was the situation in Group D. Originally, MG was stronger than the Korea team, E Motus, but in the second round of the group stage, E Motus’s strength had suddenly improved significantly and he had used two tricks in a row. In the second round of the group stage, he had achieved a score of 3-0 and had directly advanced to the second place of the group stage, pushing out MG.

In this way, the top eight were two domestic teams, three Korea teams, two European teams, and One North American team.

The drawing of lots for the quarter-finals was still based on the principle of avoiding the teams in the same group. That was to say, the teams that had fought in the group stage would not be placed together in the quarter-finals.

The final grouping results were: NRG-MAD, VG-FG, IF-Emotus, WBG-SOT.

The grouping result was no different for NRG or IF, because both teams had won first place in their groups. The teams in the finals were all fighting for the championship, and the two China teams were in the upper and lower half of the zone, so they would not meet early. This was already a very good grouping.

However, there was one thing that puzzled the local teams. How did Korea’s E Motus team suddenly become so strong? If the victory of MG was due to luck, then the result of 3-0 in the second round of the group stage could not be simply explained by luck.

After analyzing E Motus’s recording, the Chinese teams realized that the discipline and team battle skills of this team seemed to have improved significantly. Their control of their vision was also significantly better than in the first round.

Later, after some clues, the domestic teams finally found out that the Korea team had been secretly training after the first round of the group stage. All the teams had been training together.

This kind of training was not just a practice match. The two strong teams, OT and MAD, simply shared all their hidden tactics and experiences with the other two Korea teams selflessly. E Motus, in particular, had benefited greatly!
