There is One New Rule Every Month Globally-Chapter 540 - 365: The first shutdown update!

"Ding..."

Accompanied by a familiar notification sound, in the moment it resounded above Blue Star, all the players, regardless of what they were doing, promptly set aside their tasks and seriously looked at the lengthy pop-up that appeared before them.

So many months had passed.

The human race players on Blue Star had long reached a consensus: before the arrival of the new month, no one went to bed at night, everyone patiently waiting for the new rules to descend.

According to the old rules, the arrival of new rules often meant the kickoff of new activities.

"Ding!"

The abrupt notification sound captivated everyone's hearts!

"Game Update Announcement!"

"The new Blue Star 4.7 version will be offline for updates starting at 00:00 on November 1st. The main contents and adjustments of this update are as follows."

"1. Fixed several bugs, the bugs fixed this time are as follows"

...*Someone used certain props to break through the limits of Blue Star's atmosphere and escape from Blue Star; they have been recaptured, and the bug has been fixed.*...

...*Due to potential issues in the program's code, a bug that allowed players to get stuck inside rocks and even freely walk underground by squatting on the edges of cubic steps and shifting step by step has been fixed.*...

...*Fixed a loophole in the store where players discovered they could purchase items at zero cost; the bug has been fixed, all sold items have been fully recovered, and if items have vanished, players will need to compensate at the original price.*...

...*$%##%$#%%#*..."

"2. Added 'Beast Chess' gameplay, starting from November, a new permanent gameplay element will be introduced.

Beast Chess consists of several chess pieces: Elephant, Lion, Tiger, Leopard, Dog, Wolf, Cat, and Rat.

They possess relationships of natural prey and predators; for example, the Elephant can eat the Lion, the Lion can eat the Tiger, but the Rat can eat the Elephant, and so on.

In this gameplay, players will draw a random chess piece as their identity and may challenge any player they see; if the opponent's identity is lower than theirs, they gain 100 Points. Otherwise, they lose 100 Points.

Each player can accept an unlimited number of challenges per day but can only initiate one challenge.

And after a challenge, both parties will learn each other's identities."

"3: Added August's rules 'No Smoking,' 'No Thanking,'

'No Lying': All players are not allowed to smoke. As an adult, you should be conscious of your health and at the very least not affect the health of those around you with your secondhand smoke.

For each infraction, 1000 Points will be deducted, with no accumulations.

'Reject Thank You': We should be a bit rougher in facing the world; politeness is not a necessity, hence this month all players are forbidden from saying 'Thank You.'

For each infraction, 1000 Points will be deducted, non-accumulative.

PS: The definition of thank you is the words 'thank you.' Other substitutions such as gratitude won't trigger the rule.

The November rules will last for one month, expiring at 00:00 on September 1st."

"The Snow Sea Project Team wishes all players a happy gaming experience in version 4.7."

"PS: In the next update, the project team has decided to add monthly rules on the 'Do As One Pleases' element. Please look forward to it."

"It seems like this month's update content is quite simple,"

Yi, standing to the side with his hands in his pockets, looked at the panel that popped up before him and said nonchalantly, "Just three items were updated, much less than before, with only a dispensable Beast Chess gameplay added."

"This gameplay seems pretty weird."

"Once you initiate a challenge, you can discover the chess piece identities of each other; then, by simply spreading the word about the opponent's piece, every player with a higher-status piece will swarm in to challenge and easily claim 100 Points."

"Isn't this too targeted at players who aren't very popular?"

"It's a good thing that participation in this identity isn't mandatory, and you can choose freely whether to join this gameplay. Otherwise, if Yi's identity gets leaked, too many higher-status players would come to take advantage of Yi; they wouldn't shear him bald but would definitely annoy him to death."

"About that..."

Sword Without End, standing nearby, hesitated before speaking, "Actually, I think you really don't need to worry about this issue. Even if the identities were forcibly distributed to every player, I doubt anyone would dare to challenge Yi."

"Why? As soon as Yi's identity is known, it means a free pick-up of 100 Points for winning a challenge."

"That's true, but losing your life for 100 Points seems a bit uneconomical, doesn't it? After all, 100 Points seem rather trivial when compared to a life."

"That makes sense, you have a point,"

Tuberculosis Rabbit nodded in agreement and then took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and put it in his mouth. He took a long drag before gazing at the smoke curling before him with a distracted look.

"I don't know why, but this cigarette seems to smoke better than usual."

"I always feel like there's a noble touch in the smoke."

The new rules for November: all players are forbidden to smoke. Each infraction results in a fine of 1000 Points, and Tuberculosis Rabbit, of course, completely ignored this rule—a mere 1000 Points for one cigarette, which he could easily afford.

Even if he smoked 20 cigarettes a day, that would be just 20,000 Points.

A total of only 600,000 for the month.

Barely a drizzle, as things stood—they were not the same as before, not lacking a few hundred thousand Points. The ear spoon in his pocket alone had cost him several hundred thousand Points; he wouldn't care about these few hundred thousand Points.
