346: Enter the game and the update is complete!

"Whoosh!"

Lin Yue suddenly woke up, his vision completely dark, and then his lungs violently exploded!

A mouthful of icy, bone-chilling dark water surged through every pore of his body!

He endured the intense pain, his limbs flailing wildly, but he felt his surroundings growing darker and darker, realizing he was sinking!

Then he held his breath, using both hands and feet to constantly paddle, finally slowly ascending to the surface of the lake.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Yue greedily gulped in air, but a wave once again swept him back into the water!

Wave after wave crashed over him, Lin Yue bobbing up and down, expending tremendous effort. Finally, just as he was about to exhaust himself, the waves swept him to the shore.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Yue rolled onto the bank, looking at the azure sky, gasping for breath. He had finally escaped the risk of drowning.

Whose resurrection point is in the water?!

Lin Yue cursed inwardly.

But a sudden system prompt sounded.

【System Announcement: Welcome player back to the game!

This update of ascension 1.10 has been officially completed!

The following updates have been made to this version of ascension:

One, Death Mechanism Change: After this update, the player's death resurrection cooldown will still be 24 hours, but an additional one point will be deducted from each of the five attributes. As the number of deaths increases, the deduction of the five attributes will also increase. For example, for the first death, 1 point will be deducted from each of the five attributes; for the second death, 2 points will be deducted from each of the five attributes... (Note 1: The number of deaths before the version update is not included!)

(Note 2: Once any of the five attributes falls below 0, the game character dies!)

Two, Luck Mode is officially implemented. After this update, players can explore it themselves!

Three, To ensure better communication between players and avoid meaningless information clutter, the rules for speaking in the regional chat channel have been changed. Players who wish to speak can do so by purchasing a "Small Loudspeaker"!

Four, To ensure player privacy, the live streaming and screen recording functions can only be viewed within the game and cannot be exported! Furthermore, the threshold for the live streaming function has been raised; players are encouraged to explore the specific gameplay themselves!

Five, Player respawn point rules have been changed. After this update, players can only set one "respawn point". If a player is not at their respawn point, they cannot exit the game normally. If they choose to force quit, it is equivalent to the game character dying!】

Lin Yue listened to these five updates and, apart from the second one about the Luck Mode, he felt that they were all nerfs for players!

The change to the death mechanism goes without saying. For ordinary players whose five attributes are around 20, after the update, they can probably only die 5 times. The sixth death will result in the game character being deleted!

As for high-level players, even for a Third-rate Military General with 80 Martial Power, they can probably die 12 times. Moreover, in the later stages, one death would deduct about 10 points from their attributes, which would mean falling two realms!

Therefore, the strength among players will show a situation where the strong get stronger, and the weak get weaker.

What's even more cruel is the penalty of deleting the game character. Lin Yue is currently unsure what impact this will have on players. Will it simply deprive them of the right to enter this world, or will it also deprive them of the right to survive in the real world?

He guessed it was the former.

But this can also greatly curb the arrogant behavior of players. After all, previously players could revive without any cost, but after the update, they will lose attributes. One or two times might not matter, but if the number of deaths increases and the player's own attributes decrease, players will not be so reckless and will learn to exercise restraint.

This is like not feeling pain until the knife falls on oneself; only when it threatens them will they learn to rein themselves in.

After all, this game uses real-name registration, which means that before the login method changes, or before they find an alternative game, they wouldn't easily give up, especially since the realism of this game can be said to far surpass other games currently on the market.

And the prohibition of speaking in the regional chat channel is a huge blow to players!

This will greatly affect communication and the real-time nature of information among players. Previously, within the range of a county town in the regional chat, players could communicate freely, which was a big problem for the Great Qin defenders.

But now the situation has completely reversed. Although players can buy small loudspeakers to speak, the volume of speech in the regional chat channel will definitely decrease significantly!

This will undoubtedly make it easier for the Great Qin official army to go up the mountains and eliminate stubborn Mountain Bandits.

At least it won't be like before, where as soon as one group discovered the official army's position, all the Mountain Bandits within the entire county town would know the official army's movements.

So Lin Yue was very puzzled by this. Was it because players were developing too fast and they wanted to suppress them?

Otherwise, why would they treat players like this?

It can be said that once this announcement was made, players who were online at that moment would definitely be cursing the game's official team!

Of course, this definitely wouldn't include Lin Yue, because he was no longer an "ordinary" player!

"Cough, cough!"

The stinging pain in his chest brought Lin Yue back to his senses. He suddenly found that he seemed unable to move. He could only look down and found that although his armor was pierced, there was no blood.

He touched his chest and found no obvious wound, which made him unsure whether he had died before.

Could it be that he was forcibly logged off by the system when he was unconscious but not yet dead? And now he's logged back on, respawning at the location where he was forcibly logged off?

While this could explain why he appeared at the bottom of the river, what was with the lack of a wound?

He shook his head, wanting to try to get up again, but he heard the system prompt once more!

Lin Yue finally came to his senses. This time, there was so much!

After the Northern Expedition against the Xiongnu ended, Lin Yue now had 223235 merit points and 142640 Glory Value, which was quite a bountiful harvest!

But the Glory Shop still hadn't opened. He could now be said to be experiencing the most painful thing, which was having money but nowhere to spend it!

However, there was an even more urgent matter now: he was finding it very difficult to move. How was he supposed to get back to the Encampment?
