69: Chapter 69 [Farmer] This identity can be used in my Dragon Kingdom
Zhao Hongxiu had already gone over the first four [Final Rules], and the remaining rules were easy to understand, requiring no explanation from her.
Chen Aoyun went over all the rules several times himself and studied the fully revealed map again and again, grasping the general routine of this final chapter:
"To summarize. In the final chapter, I need to place two [Emperor Spirits] right from the start.
Then, these two invincible [Emperor Spirits] will stay in the Home Base, waiting for the arrival of the decisive battle between emperors.
Meanwhile, I, as the [Strategist], and you, as the [Roleplayers], need to find 'Identity Resources' for the two [Emperor Spirits].
Use the 'Identity Resources' to crazily add ★ to the [Emperor Spirits], making them stat monsters so they can defeat the opponent's [Emperor Spirits] during the decisive battle.
I have a few final questions: Are 'Identity Resources' easy to snatch? What kind of 'Identity Resources' will spawn on the new Star Chessboard? What are our strengths and weaknesses?"
The Game of National Destiny was not a solo endeavor. Ever since they brainstormed and figured out how to use [Yuan Lao] to turn the tide, Chen Aoyun had learned the importance of collective wisdom and consulting his teammates.
Zhao Hongxiu thought for a moment, and, never one to waste words, gave a concise answer:
"There will be all kinds of 'Identity Resources': [Emperor], [General], [Farmer], [Doctor]... even [Scientist], [Madman], [Beggar].
Look at the new map; the areas in the map correspond to the identities that might spawn.
The Palace Area and the Royal Hunting Ground Area should spawn a large amount of the [Emperor] identity resource.
Besides [Emperor], the Palace might also spawn [Minister] resources, and the hunting ground might spawn identity resources like [General] or [Military Officer].
Then there is the Farmland Area; the most abundant identity resource in the Farmland Area should be [Farmer], while the Mountain Forest Area will have the most [Mountain Dweller] identities, and it is possible for [Ranger] or [Bandit] to appear..."
Chen Aoyun understood, "Wherever different identities might appear in reality, that area might have the corresponding 'Identity Resource'.
An emperor wouldn't work in the fields, so the [Emperor] identity resource cannot spawn in the Farmland Area.
A Farmer wouldn't live in a palace, so the Palace Area won't have the [Farmer] resource."
On the fully revealed map, there were: Palace Area, Royal Hunting Ground Area, Farmland Area, Mountain Forest Area, Grassland Area, Town Area, and Ritual Area—a total of seven areas.
Among them, the Palace Area and the Royal Hunting Ground Area were the smallest and were located at the center of the Star Chessboard.
Chen Aoyun said, "Every country must place [Emperor Spirit], so the [Emperor] identity is useful to all countries and must be a resource that everyone competes for.
The Palace Area and Royal Hunting Ground Area will spawn large amounts of the [Emperor] identity resource. Since these two areas are small and located in the center, they will definitely be battlegrounds!
An emperor might also be a [Noble], so the high-society district in the Town Area, where [Noble] identity resources spawn, will also be a key point of contention!"
Fan Ling spoke up, "The usable resources are concentrated in the center, which is very disadvantageous for us.
In this stage, the [Roleplayers] of all countries have unlocked their abilities. Zhao Hongxiu and I are only at the third rank. You are bringing in Hongxiu's brother, Zhao Tianming, and Old Li, who plays the Prime Minister; they are also at the third rank. Meanwhile, the [Roleplayers] of Sakura Country and Ottoman are generally at the sixth rank!
That's not even counting the unlocking of 'Buff Items'. Sakura Country and Ottoman easily obtained quite a few 'Buff Items' in the first stage. They couldn't use them before, but now they can. Both of these points are our weaknesses!"
Chen Aoyun nodded. After understanding the rules of the final chapter, he knew that Dragon Country's disadvantages lay in items and rank, and this disadvantage was obvious and lethal.
With a low rank and no items, Dragon Country couldn't beat the [Roleplayers] of other countries and couldn't snatch useful 'Identity Resources'.
Once they had snatched enough identity resources and their Spirits had a row of little stars from the 'Transcendental Buff', no matter who Chen Aoyun placed as emperor, they wouldn't be a match for the opponent's stat monsters!
As for advantages.
Chen Aoyun's mental abacus clicked away: 'Are kings and nobles born with high status?', this saying only existed in Dragon Country during the old era.
In other civilizations, dynastic changes almost always occurred among the nobility.
A Farmer overthrowing a dynasty and becoming the emperor himself might not be exclusive to Huaxia Civilization, but it was close enough.
In other words, other countries probably wouldn't bother snatching the [Farmer] identity because it was useless to them.
But if the Spirit I place is [Zhu Yuanzhang]... Heh heh.
"Everyone, our disadvantages are obvious, but we do have advantages!
As for what the advantage is, I can't say right now.
It's halftime now.
During this halftime, the [Strategist] can talk freely with the Support Group, and I'm afraid that if it's broadcasted and overheard, it will ruin things."
Fan Ling grinned wide, "Then don't say it. Once halftime ends and the final chapter begins, you, as the [Strategist], can just coordinate and plan from the center. We won't ask questions; we'll just execute!"
After spending several stages together, the trust between them had long since become as solid as a rock.
"By the way, the final stage requires four [Roleplayers]. Since Xiao Zhenghong has disappeared, you need to bring in Zhao Tianming and Old Li."
Xiao Zhenghong had disappeared during the 'Emperor Zhu Di Plot' stage.
Zhao Tianming was Zhao Hongxiu's brother, and his earliest role was 'Scholar'.
Old Li referred to Li Gaoyuan, whose previous role was 'Prime Minister'.
The two units of Cavalry initially used for the "Seven In, Seven Out" maneuver were secured for Dragon Country by Li Gaoyuan as the 'Prime Minister'.
Both of them had hidden in the Home Base during the 'nightfall' stage and hadn't died or turned into spirits, so they were perfect for filling the [Roleplayer] quota to four.
