Chapter 662: Preparing for Battle (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After a conversation with Xiao Yu, Feng Qi successfully recruited the first virtual instructor.
After hanging up, he sent someone to fetch Xiao Yu to the Tiger Soul Research Institute.
Then, he was given the certification and authority of a virtual instructor.
From now on, Xiao Yu would have a special identity in the virtual game and would give technical advice to other gamers every day in the upcoming virtual consultation room.
Feng Qi even gave him the authority to form a player guild in Breaking Dawn. He hoped that he could nurture a group of future newcomers with potential.
In terms of treatment, Feng Qi had planned to give Xiao Yu additional income rights.
For example, if a player were to consult Xiao Yu on various aspects, he could collect fees according to the price list.
However, this suggestion was rejected by Xiao Yu.
He expressed that he was a retired frontline warrior. The various subsidies were enough for him to live the rest of his life. He did not need additional income to improve his quality of life.
No matter how much money he had, it was the same to him.
He only hoped that Breaking Dawn could be promoted better so that he could train more outstanding warriors for the front line.
Feng Qi saw in Xiao Yu’s realization the unwavering faith of a retired veteran. Hence, he agreed to Xiao Yu’s decision that he did not need additional income. In Feng Qi’s opinion, perhaps charging a fee was a blasphemy of faith to this veteran.
Following that, the initial member of the instructor team assumed his position. After more than 10 days of trial feedback, he saw Xiao Yu’s potential and the significance of the Scarlet Research Institute’s virtual instructor team.
It could be seen from the backstage data of Breaking Dawn.
Xiao Yu handled technical information from a total of 329 players and had done many actual combat exercises. He received 100% good reviews.
Apart from that, he also caused a heated discussion on the Breaking Dawn forum.
At this stage, most of the players in Breaking Dawn had not been to the front line. Xiao Yu was like an encyclopedia.
It could teach them many useful techniques in actual combat.
For example, how to differentiate directions in a domain field that could not be navigated, how to determine the next step of the operation in a team battle, and so on.
Whenever someone faced challenges in combat techniques, Xiao Yu would open the training room and guide the players through the combat scene, teaching them step by step.
The once-silent retired veteran finally discovered a new path that was uniquely his own.
In just over 10 days.
Xiao Yu, who had moved into the Tiger Soul Research Institute, looked completely different.
Upon his initial arrival, he emitted a sour odor, and his disheveled hair suggested a prolonged absence from personal grooming. His unshaven face and unkempt appearance resembled that of a vagrant.
However, at present, Xiao Yu had trimmed his long hair and shaved off his beard, presenting Feng Qi with a different impression.
His dispirited mental state also disappeared after more than 10 days of self-change.
At this moment, Xiao Yu’s gaze was sharp, and he regained the sharpness that a frontline warrior should have.
This change made Feng Qi feel extremely emotional. It also strengthened his decision to form an instructor team.
Many veterans who retired from the front line were similar to Xiao Yu, unwilling to spend the rest of their lives ordinary.
But injuries, illnesses, and disabilities prevent them from determining their future.
Even if they applied to return to the front line, they would be rejected.
The establishment of the virtual instructor team would provide a platform for these retired frontline veterans to shine again.
As he wrote in this recruitment plan:
[Even if you no longer tread the frontline, let the youthful faces carry forward your faith on this journey.]
In the next few months.
The number of applicants for the instructor team began to increase.
Many retired veterans who knew about Breaking Dawn came one after another and took on the trial missions, wanting to become virtual instructors.
During this period, a group of naive players appeared.
They were newcomers who had never been to the front line, but their ranking results were extremely high.
Upon witnessing veterans adorned with the instructor’s logo in the game, others were inspired to acquire it themselves. Captivated by its coolness, they promptly applied to embark on the trial missions.
There were a few players who passed the preliminary trial mission and entered the review stage.
Feng Qi did not hesitate to give a “failure” evaluation to such players with potential.
Such talented players might be very capable.
However, they had no real frontline experience at all, let alone any teaching experience. Wanting to become a member of the instructor team was purely a joke.
Hiring them as members of the instructor team was irresponsible to other newcomers.
After all, there was a difference between real combat and games.
Even if Breaking Dawn could achieve 100% realism and was no different from reality, there would still be a difference on another level.
This difference was made up of several factors.
For example, mentality.
In Breaking Dawn, players exhibited remarkable courage in battle, unhampered by the fear of death. Fear seemed to be an unknown concept to them.
However, in a real battle, the mentality was a huge factor that affected combat strength.
Fear, nervousness, and other emotions would affect the situation of the battle. Particularly when facing domain creatures equipped with mental bewitchment abilities, the fear instilled in the hearts of human warriors became a potent weapon wielded against them.
Apart from mentality, there were many special situations that Breaking Dawn could not simulate.
Therefore, the game could only be a training ground. No matter how perfect it was, it could not compare to actual combat.
However, there was no doubt that the appearance of the Breaking Dawn game would greatly improve the deficiencies of newcomers in actual combat. It would bring them improvement in all aspects, including skills, awareness, and other factors..
