Maps 2

King Avatar was a dangerous game to the current him because many things were automated by AIs.

Even if he had changed many things, the whole system was created to give players a highly intensive combat ecosystem.

The Map of this game was continuously expanding and it was not known how big it could grow in the future. But that was not a problem because they could just delete old maps to create room and popularity for new maps.

This would also make the game ever-changing and keep the players occupied. It did not matter at that time because it was a problem for the marketing department and the executives of Arc Technologies.

But now if this map was left alone, he did not know what was going to happen in the future.

He did not hesitate to separate the whole map from the other maps.

He was going to make this map into a separate realm and restrict entrance to this place. He could not block the whole map but he could place some measures.

The good thing about a digitized world was that he did not have to worry about physics. But he did not want to abuse it too much.

The system had already tried to arrange the maps as best as it could and he could see signs of forced alignment.

It was like a jigsaw puzzle with irregular pieces. If forced, one could get something, but it was best not to force it.

He added an island at the center of the map and bound the King Avatar realm to this Island. He also had plans for this Island but it was best to leave it for the time being. But that was not all.

King Avatar was a free map and he could not monopolize it, so he was going to place some measures to prevent wanton access.

The first measure was a fee. He put a fee for access to this realm. It cost 10 gold just for one entry and the price increased with each ten-level increase, by the time one reached level 900…

King Avatar was a resource-rich map and its riches knew no end. Its vast maps also had many hidden opportunities that no one could stay away from. He was sure that they would still pay even if he raised the price by 10 times.

Especially the high-level characters. This was the place where they could level up after reaching level 50.

And this was the upper extreme. The dungeons in Avalon could not handle more than this. Unless other cultivation methods appeared, reaching level 50 without King Avatar was already impressive.

He also put a rental system. It would not be strange if many high-level characters decided to live there. Even if they wanted to remain, the measures he was planning to put in place were going to force them to go there. Unless they planned to stay at level 50 forever.

The higher the level, the higher the rent. As for the money, he could not enjoy it, it was directly taken by the system.

The second measure was level restriction.

The other four games were meant for fun and did not have much focus on strength. He did not want to change that and give some troublesome characters a chance to level up under some protagonist halo.

He directly put a level ban on anyone who was above level 50. They could not be tolerated by the other maps. Of course, he also put a means in the system store to resolve this issue.

It was a level seal that sealed one's strength to any desired level. The strong could visit the other maps, but they had to buy this single-use consumable. The only thing that pained his guts was that the money went to the system and he could not enjoy it.

Factions were his last measure in the King Avatar map. It was not hard to imagine how power was going to be distributed in the future.

He had read enough novels to know that a class system would be born and sometime later, the general population would be oppressed by the so-called 'nobles'.

This way of doing things left a bad taste in his mouth, but it was the best way forward. This was the truth of strength and he did not plan on changing it.

It was also good. If some abnormality was seen, he could also know immediately. He was already like this, he would not be surprised if some interesting characters appeared in the future.

The automation of King Avatar also had its advantages, especially since he had sealed it in another space.

The monsters there were tough and the level scaling system there was top-notch. If he used these resources to develop his forces, he did not have to worry about not having enough strength.

But that was not his main focus, he was not that worried about external strength. He was more inclined to increase his own strength and influence. He was also sure that even if he did not actively develop forces, people would gather around him.

His wealth gave him confidence and the plot gave him even more certainty of his path.

He was supposed to be a villain. A Final Boss at that. There was no way the game mechanics would allow him to suffer. He had to live like a young master to give the protagonist an opportunity for face-slapping.

While he had no intention of playing along, he fully intended on taking advantage of the plot. Who could give up such benefits? He was already a Duke of the Avalon Kingdom. He did not know how it happened, but he liked such grand arrangements.

A separate map also made his plan more viable. It was true that strength was attractive, but if there was a place where rule and laws bound strength, who would fear the strong?

He was going to create such a place. While he could not get rid of this rule, he could drown it and taint it with politics.
