012. Frost-Plated Republic's Counterattack
If it were just a rant, it wouldn't be enough to bring Li Aozi's speech to a climax.
The post-production team at Qiqiao Network became very interested in Li Aozi after obtaining the video footage. After studying his identity and information, they made a more appropriate judgment about his personal image than the Frost-Plated Law III and IV mechanisms.
Li Aozi is a warrior who resists injustice, or rather, a chivalrous hero.
Wandering the world, enduring hardships, drawing his sword to help when he sees injustice—these romanticized terms are truly captivating.
The promotion department personnel believed: Frost-Plated lacks distinct game features; if players value prosthetics, why not go to Red Arrow, which has the most advanced technology?
If players aspire to martial arts, then why not go to Tianhuan, where cold weapon combat is more refined?
Besides, the Frost-Plated Republic's poor political situation is not conducive to an investment environment, which displeased state-owned enterprises and public institutions that had secured beta testing spots. Additionally, for male players, the prevailing public opinion might cause some discomfort.
The former came here to participate in the electronic migration project and make big money; they are enterprises from Yanxia, not blood donors for the Frost-Plated government.
As for the latter, it would deter most male casual players, and even female players would feel disgusted by such a distorted social system. They would likely prefer the beautiful scenery of the Zhengxu Democratic Republic.
Therefore, the promotion department keenly captured Li Aozi's 'chivalrous' character and, based on this, redefined the core gameplay of Frost-Plated:
"The fun of being a player in the Frost-Plated region lies in destroying Frost-Plated."
In fact, Li Aozi does not represent any faction. If anything, he belongs to the outside world, but he was born in Frost-Plated and is a hero who destroyed an anti-human organization—perfect for giving players a strong sense of justice and empathy.
The promotional video had a limited time allocation for each country, with each segment lasting no more than 13 minutes.
The Frost-Plated Republic itself could only promote its features of being 'insidious,' 'scheming behind the scenes,' and 'women holding high positions of power.' These aspects were mentioned briefly, and to fill the remaining nearly ten minutes, the employees of Qiqiao Network's promotion department lazily changed filters, added music, and edited the footage, almost stuffing the entire mission plot of "Remember It" into it.
Accompanied by Li Aozi's passionate cries, the tragic experiences of the Calamity Armament test subjects were vividly presented, and with tear-jerking music, it fully aroused the audience's anger and sympathy.
However, even Li Aozi didn't expect that these segments of his would become the most frequently interacted with moments during the entire press conference.
"This country has gone mad!"
"Their actions disgrace women; how could they conduct such cruel experiments on babies?!"
"My blood pressure is rising; I can't wait to log in and start killing."
This live broadcast was not just aimed at players but at all those who had the desire and hope for electronic migration. People inclined towards electronic migration generally had characteristics of being 'lonely,' 'emotionally sensitive,' and 'world-weary,' with strong empathy and a desire to care for others from the start.
