The American Medical Association, the largest organization of physicians in the United States, is scheduled to hold a meeting in Chicago on the 23rd. At that time, a leadership committee of leading members of the society will submit a report to the congress recommending that the American Medical Association lobby the American Psychiatric Association to urge the latter to include computer game addiction in the handbook of mental illness edited and published by them. Delegates from the American Medical Association will vote on the leadership committee's proposal on the 25th.

In the opinion of the doctors of the leadership committee, addiction to computer games can cause no less harm to teenagers than addiction to sea + lo+ cause. As a result, they argue that making computer game addiction a mental illness would help raise awareness of the phenomenon and motivate insurance companies to pay for treatment for computer game fans.

The report to be submitted to the General Assembly by the Steering Committee is a synthesis of scientific literature and has been published in the journal Science and Public Health. According to the report, the majority of children with a tendency to rely on computer games are introduced to these games at a young age. In addition, online role-playing games are often addictive and tempting players to indulge in them. Among them, "World of Warcraft" is the most popular. This game is based on the theme of slaying demons and is mainly designed for teenagers.

Not only that, but the report of the American Medical Association's leadership committee also outlines the current situation of American teenagers addicted to computer games as a whole. According to the report, 90% of American teenagers have played computer games, and more than 5 million of them are addicted, accounting for 15% of the overall population.

In line with this, according to media reports, teenagers' addiction to computer games has become a social problem in the United States. Some parents have a headache because their children are addicted to playing games, and some families have even been ruined because of it.

……

The Associated Press reported that although the large number of teenagers addicted to computer games has caused harm to themselves and society, there are objections within game developers and the medical community to classify computer game addiction as a mental illness.

Some game developers claim that their products do not cause mental illness...... "the American Medical Association's conclusion is premature, and they don't come up with well-established, comprehensive data to prove it."

An expert from the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry commented that the proposal of the American Medical Association's Leadership Committee has brought the problem of computer game addiction into the public eye. But he also pointed out that indulging in computer games can also be diagnosed as mental depression and social anxiety, rather than necessarily being classified as a mental illness.

"After all, your scrolls are similar to the rune paper on my side!"

"How is it the same? The scroll records a complete spell that can be used as long as the releaser has enough mana; However, the rune paper requires the Taoist priest to make gestures and chant incantations, and with different gestures and incantations, the power of the rune paper is also different! It's clear that it's the reels on our side that are a cut above each other, and the speed of activation is unbelievably fast. Dev Brie grinned, revealing a supposedly handsome but terrifying white fang.

"Ridiculous! It's really a summer worm, and it's unspeakable! The general immediately shouted: "Have you heard of [Palm Thunder]? Its activation speed is similar to that of a scroll, but [Palm Thunder] does not require an expensive scroll crafting fee, and you can use it again when you run out! ”

Listening to the two mentors arguing, Qingyi felt happy. First, he found that auditing is also an instant task, and he will have additional experience after listening for more than two hours. Second, after listening to these contents, Qingyi felt that he had a deep understanding of the game world; Thirdly, as the saying goes, "harmony makes money", the mentor and the harmony can take this opportunity to manage the city, and the production capacity of the "waiting city" will also go up, and more wealth can be created. At this time, Qingyi used his [Soul Force Field], which could cover the entire city, to begin to retrieve, investigate, and evaluate all aspects of the Necromantic Paradise.

Since Qingyi set foot on Olquila, the number of players joining the necromantic camp has increased dramatically. In the past, there were only two or three thousand people, but now it has soared to 100,000, and it is still increasing at a rate of 8,000 people per day! Some of them are newcomers, but a large part of them are veteran players who have not played well and deleted their numbers and restarted, or found special NPCs to do faction change missions. There is no doubt that Qing Yi has erected a banner for the necromantic camp, which is much more powerful than the "Immortal Army Banner", and that is his own reputation. Thanks to him, even the number of necromantic players on other servers has increased.

More people is a good thing, but how to manage it has become an urgent problem. In addition to taking refuge in several old necromantic player guilds ("Behind the Scenes", "Indigo Star Marks", "Blood Moon Waltz", and "Wax Museum of Terror"), new players have also formed new guilds, and some even want to join the infamous Qingyi. Although these players are still low-level, they are potential stocks that can walk, and maybe one of them will suddenly run out to grab Qingyi's throne, just as the sword soldiers did back then. By the way, only Qingyi is a veteran player among the Necromantic Kings, and the rest are newcomers who have never been exposed to "Qiankun".

Aside from the growing number of players, a large number of necromantic NPCs have also emerged in the new territory of Qingyi (formerly Orquila). The clouds of death are like countless gentle hands that gently awaken the dead, regardless of the degree of decay in their bodies. The total number of necromantic NPCs is 600,000, and if you look at the number of people alone, it is not much different from Orquila in its heyday, but if you look at the quality, it will be a big disappointment: among them, there are 420,000 low-level NPCs, 150,000 middle-level NPCs, and 30,000 high-level NPCs. Brian speculated that it was because of the "Immortal Banner's" conversion, otherwise even these 30,000 high-ranking natives would not be able to keep it.

Starlight Ocean Shoal has become the first place for the necromantic camp to level up, followed by the "Carnivore Rainforest" and the Broken Silver Lake, and newcomers have to start fighting from the abandoned barracks of Isengard. At the same time, the leveling treasure land also drives the economic growth of the surrounding cities, and the supply of life and occupation NPCs is in short supply for a while; Thankfully, as the number of Necro players increased, the number of Necro NPCs also followed, ensuring that the supply points were working properly. In addition, Snow City does attract many non-necromantic travelers (mostly NPCs), who receive a free, one-time "Necromantic Mask" to ensure that they can continue to move around Necronomicon.

The various forces allied with Qingyi also had their own performances. The Blood Elves are very familiar with building outlets, operating a one-stop shop of catering, accommodation, and entertainment in Snow City, and seventy percent of one street is their store; The werewolves of the "Graytail Brotherhood" manage warehouses for the blood elves, build houses, or go to the docks to work as porters. Compared with the first two, the witch is quite quiet, neither involved in affairs nor making any statement, all hiding and not knowing what to do, and Qingyi is too lazy to care.

Speaking of witches, Qingyi thought of the quasi-heroic leader of the Knights of Iron Hoof and the "Alternate Saint" Jonny. According to the report of his subordinates, the regimental commander was escorted out of Orquilla by his subordinates after being singled out with Graheide, and it is estimated that he is still staying in Astant. Qingyi always felt that Jonny would jump out to hinder his plans, and he couldn't help but have a faint worry. You must know that Qingyi has personally fought against the poisonous Grahide, and is still intimidated by the heroism of the other party; And Jonny was able to get out of the heads-up with Grahide, what kind of combat power is this?!

Thinking of this, Qingyi couldn't help but worry about getting up and getting up in Yaslot's two subordinates - the Necromantic Spy Expert, Oskol and the Dusk Wisher, and Perls. One is responsible for spying on intelligence, and the other is responsible for cultivating forces, both of them must be in danger, and there is a possibility of exposure at any time.

"Hey, what are you thinking, did you listen?"

Qingyi reacted, but it was the general who called him, and hurriedly said: "Listening, listening." ”

Dever's perceptive eyes swept Qingyi a few times: "I like to lie, but I don't like people to lie to me." ”

Bite!

System Prompt: Your quest "Listening to Lectures" is interrupted, Dev Brie and his generals' opinion of you will be reduced by 5%, and the quest reward will be deducted by 30%.

Qingyi almost cried. The "Qiankun" system is quite intelligent, and even if it is very strict in the task of listening to lectures, it is inexperienced to desert. He was thinking about saying something soft and asking for a favor or something, and the general said: "Old waste wood, you and I have been discussing for so long, and you haven't come up with a reason, why don't you argue on the students, how about it?" ”

"I'm afraid you'll lose. June is the White Bone Tyrant, and after all, he is the inheritor of the unique West, and he has a better relationship with necromancy. ”

"That's a fallacy! As long as the heart is sincere, all sentient beings can attain the Tao, but what borders are there? ”

Qingyi pondered this time, and almost jumped up with joy. Listening to the words of the two of them, I'm afraid they want to teach him the skills of pride! Think about it, after Qingyi, you will first open a [Hell Top], and then launch the [Reincarnation Dao • Hungry Ghost Dao] and [Bone Mound Gate], and if you have nothing to do, you can also have a [Summoning Bone Beast] or something...... It's invincible! Don't farm monsters too well! Hahaha, it's hard not to become the first necromantic god of the "gospel!!

(Xerdor: "Host, I hear you laughing again.") ”）

Dever said again: "Old monster, do you still have skills to teach?" ”

The general pouted, his expression was somewhat uncomfortable: "It seems that there is no ......"

"Me too. So how can you use students to argue? Your IQ is really not averagely low. "Deve never misses an opportunity to be sarcastic.

"Forget it, let's move on. The soul is what you call the 'soul'......"

Yes...... Qingyi was like being doused with ice water in the third and ninth days, and a spirit reacted and interrupted the general's words regardless of the consequences: "Wait! Don't worry about the Tao for now, you two don't have the skills to teach, what's going on?! ”
