578 Path of the Warrior (5)

In Kailan's server, how many NPCs are there?

We need to check the database in the system to find out, but according to a recent study, there are approximately 800 million NPCs in the human world alone.

And eight billion horses, which is a lot more than 10 percent of the world's population.

Moreover, within Kailan, there is not a single identical NPC.

There is no NPC made of abdominal glue (copy + paste).

So how did I, by the way, in Kylan's planning team, come up with so many different NPCs?

Do we really have to set up each and every one of them?

The correct answer was, of course, 'No.’

Although not publicly known, the number of NPCs in the Kailan Planning Team, up to all the stories and specific settings, is only a few thousand.

(I'm not an practitioner, so I don't know the exact numbers.)

Not to mention a few thousand, of course, but less than 0.1 percent compared to 800 million.

So how did Kailan come to be?

The secret lies in Kailan's fundamental system.

The basic source is provided by the planning team, in which the sources are intertwined and the resultant value produced is determined by the system.

Starting with appearance, personality, stats, etc.

If you put a number of cases into various feature elements that a single NPC can have, the system randomly mixes them up.

Since there were thousands of cases with small eyes, the same NPC could not exist. Since different people have a relationship and a "society" was formed naturally, another world such as the real human world was created.

Different stories between NPCs and numerous small sub-quests arising from them don't even need to be bothered by the planning team.

Now, if you've read this far, you'll come up with one question.

Thousands of NPCs designed daily from a to z by the planning team mentioned earlier.

Why do they need it?

The reason is actually simple.

Their role was to help direct Kailan's story, because they were the nameless NPCs.

Me, and Kailan's development and planning teams, we control Kailan's world through them.

So why did you bring up such an immature and complicated story... ….

I wanted to tell you that there are many variables within Kailan that even planners can't fathom.

Yeah, I wanted to make excuses.

Why we didn't have complete control of all the systems in Kailan.

Ian, Mark, Oliver, and Lycao.

These three people were imprisoned in the village of warriors for a full day....

It was an ‘accident’.

- Excerpt from the organizer 'Kim Incheon's diary’.

Ian arrives in the Chamber of Crystals, drawn into the hands of an unknown NPC.

The person Ian met there was, surprisingly, an NPC with a face.

His name is…….

"Braveheart Camille! ’

The best bus driver who helped Ian in the war against the armies of Darkness, or who gave Ian and ElKarix the best ride?) Camille was waiting for Ian.

But Ian's surprise did not last long.

In a way, it was not that awkward to have Camille here.

‘The sign of courage that Camille gave us was a clue to enter the warrior village. ’

Ian, who also had a history of spearheading with Camille, greeted him with a very happy look.

“Oh, Camille, it's been so long! ”

Camille was happy to see him, too.

“Haha, look who's here. You are the Lady of Mercy. ”

“How have you been? ”

“Of course it's me. I thought I'd see you again someday, but I didn't expect to see you so soon. ”

And Ian's brain, facing Camirez, began to spin again rapidly.

‘Camirez……. I'm sure this guy's share of the content in the Warrior Town won't be small. ’

There is no information yet on what a warrior village looks like.

Even the patch notes are completely anonymous about the content.

But only the two thorns were clear.

Camille gave me a sign of courage, which allowed me to freepass the warrior's path.

It is also the fact that he is sitting in this‘ Hall of Decisions’, which decides the position of the warrior village.

That's why Ian decided to go easy on Camille.

“Haha, I think it's all thanks to Mr. Camirez. I wouldn't have made it here if it hadn't been for the help of Mr. Camirez and the Courage Legion. ”

“Haha, this guy is so modest! I've already seen your valor and excellent spear skills with my own eyes. ”

“That's a compliment. If Lord Camirez hadn't looked into it, he would have won. ”

Ian's Abu Skill in a row.

And in these sweet stories, Camille's fascination with Ian began to rise rapidly.

“Man, I like this more and more. ”

- White Dragon Guard Captain's Amity is increased by 3.

But the moment he saw the message, Ian had to pause for a moment.

It was because I found something interesting in the system message that came to mind.

White Dragon Guard Commander? What is it? Has the position changed? ’

Obviously, the man I met a few months ago had the title of Head of Courage and Leadership.

In the meantime, a change in position meant that the position of the NPC could change as the story progressed.

Ian starts asking Camille questions.

“By the way, camirez, you're not the boss anymore, are you? ”

Camille replied with a nice smile.

“After the battle I fought with you, I was appointed to the Guard Commander. ”

“Aha.”

“Just think of the brave Satan I once served as a unit under this White Dragon Guard. The Courageous Legion is the most powerful force within our White Dragon Guards. ”

“I see.”

And Ian's brain rotation didn't end here.

‘So in the meantime, I got promoted...' Let's see. The guy who brought me here said he had something to do with the Celestial Dragons. ’

The name of the Celestial Dragon Warrior is, "The Celestial Dragon Guard".

And the position of White Whistler, the leader of the Celestial Dragon Guard, was the commander of the Celestial Dragon Guard.

"The Heavenly Dragon Guard was the army of the Wheel King. And the Courage Legion was the army of the mercenary Sekaito. ’

The all-wheel king who sent the Celestial Dragons is not the ‘King of Asuka’ who rules the Mauria empire.

King Ahsoka was just a figure called the Wheel King of Youth, and somewhere in the new world there was a real Wheel King.

God's army sent by the ‘real’ all-wheel king.

It was the Celestial Dragon Guard.

‘And Sakito, who sent the courageous Satan, is also clearly one of the gods of God... …. ’

Ian's eyes caught a clue, and he was young.

‘Heavenly Dragon Guards and White Dragon Guards……. There's got to be a connection between the former King and the Sekhito. ’

The Celestial Dragon Guard and the White Dragon Guard had similar names so that anyone could see they were brothers.

Ian couldn't help but ask Camille.

“Then, camirez, ”

“Tell me. ”

“Do you know who the King in the First World is? ”

And in Ian's question, Camille reacted with a slightly absurd look.

“How could I not know that? ”

“Yes?”

“He is my lord. ”

Ian's eyes widened and he didn't understand what he was saying.

* * *

The concept of the ‘heavenly system’ was the name of the dimensional system that has been mentioned since the war with the past.

However, no one had ever known the reality of the heavenly world.

Even Ian.

When I first heard the word "Celestial Realm," I thought it was just a hostile force in the Magic System. ’

The final battle of the Dimensional War when the Guardians of the Celestial Dragons helped the human race against the Mahjong.

In that battle, White Whiskey, the Guardian commander, clearly recited this line to the Demon Kings.

- If this was the sky, I could've wiped it all out myself, even if all of you came at me.

That was the day Ian first heard the name "heaven."

And Ian, who heard this, subconsciously thought that the heavenly system was a conceptual dimension similar to that of the Mahjong system.

A terrestrial system, like the human world, but a new dimensional system that will open up with updates in the future, like the Mahjong system.

It is also regarded as another force that forms a barrier between the magic system and the sphere.

But after learning about the concept of intermediate life and hearing the details through Lugaryx, Ian began to think differently.

Lugarix thought that the "heavenly system ", another dimension of the mid-line system, could be another name in the heavenly world.

But what I heard from Camille today was to completely overturn Ian's assumptions.

“The celestial system is not just a one-dimensional system. A total of five Heavenly Manes, including the Heavenly Gentiles, are called the Celestial Realms. ”

The new worldview I learned from Camille was a shock to Ian.

So far, I've never thought about connecting Mercury to the heavenly world.

“And the former King of Heaven, who rules the Holy Spirit, is the Lord of all the heavens. Even the Sekhito, whom I serve now, is his son. ”

The White Dragon Guard, commander of Camilles, is the army of Sekhito.

However, because the Sekaito is the son of the King in the First World and the King in the First World has a higher personality, he is also the Lord of Camilles.

And when I heard the story so far, there was another question in Ian's head.

“In that case, Camille. ”

“Hmm…? ”

“The path of this warrior. What does the Canyon of Warriors have to do with the Celestial Realm? ”

Ian's question was natural.

It was only because there were NPCs dressed in heavenly bodies similar to Camilles on the road of the warrior who vaguely knew the 'place to pass through to get the threat of the middleman’.

Ian's question caught a light smile on Camille's mouth.

“Haha, the relationship between heaven and here.... ”

Then Camirez, who took a few moments, slowly opened his mouth again.

“That's not so hard. ”

“ ……? ”

“In a nutshell, this place exists to select an army of the heavens." ”

“Is the heavenly realm's army supposed to be chosen from the beings on the ground? ”

Camirez nods and replies.

“That's perfectly natural. Although there are exceptions such as" God "and" Spirit, "almost all intermediates of the intermediate world are born in the earthly world. Rare beings are born with the threat of the" middleman "from birth. ”

“Ah…! ”

Ian nods, reflexively, listening to Camirez.

It felt like I had found the location of some of the puzzle pieces that were mixed up in confusion.

But wait a minute.

Wait, what about the users? I thought you said the road to Heroes' Village was open to the Horsemen. ’

Ian remembered the users of the magic system that he had forgotten, and he had to become confused again.

Ian immediately asked the question again.

“If this is a place for the selection of heavenly troops, then can the beings of the Magic System not be intermediaries? ”

Camirez shakes his head and replies.

“No way. ”

“ ……? ”

“Why do you think there is one village of warriors? ”

“Yes?”

“If this is a village of warriors built by the gods, there's a village of warriors built by drunks on the other side of the canyon. ”

At the end of Camirez's words, Ian felt his mind completely clear.

Due to this large-scale update, new content was drawn at a glance of how it was going to flow.

Especially every half year, there was a ‘War of Heroes’ content that would be held in the Valley of Warriors.

‘I thought it would feel like a national war, but it would eventually lead to a war between the Mahjong system and the human race. ’

And after a while, Camille's mouth reopened toward Ian, who was in mind.

“Well, it's been too long since I've seen you. ”

“I learned a lot thanks to you, Camirez. ”

“Haha, no. Once we get into the valley of the warriors, we'll know soon enough. ”

“Thank you, though. ”

Ian thanked Camille sincerely.

We didn't know what content there would be when we entered the warrior village, but it was clear this was the place to prepare for battle in the canyon.

If you make good use of the information from your conversation with Camille, you will certainly benefit more.

“Well, that's the end of the conversation. ”

Camirez reaches out with one hand, and a mysterious energy gushes out from the white gate behind him.

“Hero who has set foot on the path of transcendence, will you now walk towards it? ”

It was Camilles, smiling and burying her face toward Ian.

And the answer is…….

“Of course.”

Of course it was yes.
