After leaving the city of Veron, Pan Long walked for three days according to the crude map drawn by Joseph, and arrived at the city where the family lived, the sanctuary "Holy Salt".

When he saw the city wall that glowed wonderfully turquoise in the sunlight, and the moat that reflected the color of the city wall and shimmered turquoise ripples, he vaguely guessed the origin of this world.

And after entering the town, looking at the turquoise everywhere around him, he became more and more sure of his conjecture.

"Original...... It's the world!"

He couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder I didn't have any impression before, when I played this game, I never left the area around the novice village at all!"

The name of this game is "Soul Calamity Realm". It tells the story of adventurers fighting against various disasters and saving the country in a closed country.

And the turquoise town he was in at the moment was the novice area of the game.

The game isn't technically fun, but it's a big part of gaming history because it's the first true "all-in-one" game ever.

The so-called "full immersion" means that when the player is playing the game, all consciousness enters the game world and completely loses the ability to perceive the outside world.

This approach will give players a more realistic gaming experience than ever before, and it can avoid some of the safety concerns of traditional VR (virtual reality) games.

However, the cost of full immersion is high, and players need to use a dedicated game pod to ensure that they can play safely. For example, in some science fiction works, wearing a game costume, or even wearing only a simple helmet can start a full stealth gameplay...... At least until he crossed over, it was just a fantasy.

It took more than 40 years for mankind to invent the first video game and launch a VR game, and it took nearly 100 years for mankind to go from the first VR game to the full immersion game!

Pan Long mainly played VR games in his previous life, because the cost of VR games is relatively low and the technology is relatively mature, which can bring players a realistic enough gaming experience.

By the time the game was officially launched, he was already very old, and although he could afford the game pod, he didn't have enough energy to play the game.

So he didn't buy the game pod in the end, but only experienced this "world's first all-dive game" in the game experience center.

It's a really good game, and it's very realistic. But in this game, players can't adjust their personal image - because personal image is based on the subconscious, and hastily adjusting it can have a bad effect on people's spirits.

As a pathfinder, Souls Calamity is a game that has not only undergone a lot of testing, but also added many, many restrictions. For example, the time of the game, for example, the maximum input voltage of the game pod, for example, the multiple details of the game...... All in all, the most important thing for this game, in addition to "novelty", is "safety".

It can even be said that safety is more important than novelty!

Although it was a bit late for humans to invent the all-diving game, science fiction conceived it very early. There are many conjectures and unrealistic conjectures about the dangers that can be posed by full immersion gameplay. Although there are accurate predictions made by professionals, more of them are malicious speculations by laymen.

In this case, how dare the Mi Fool company, which launched this game, not put safety first?

At that time, there were even rumors on the Internet that there were personnel from the National Special Operations Department stationed at the development headquarters of Mi Yu Company, and all the personnel involved in the development had to eat and sleep under their management. If something goes wrong, you can't run if you want to!

But to be honest, Pan Long thinks that game ...... That's it.

Maybe it's because it's too restricted, but the content of the game is a bit ...... I can't say it's monotonous, but it's too much freedom.

The most important thing about it is that there is no "game panel" at all, and the player can do whatever he wants in the game without being restricted by the system.

No levels, no attributes, no skills, no equipment, no maps, no settings...... The only thing that makes people feel like "I'm playing a game" is the virtual "quit game" button that is always in your field of vision.

It is said that this is to fit the subconscious mind to the greatest extent possible and avoid causing mental danger to the greatest extent.

Pan Long felt that it was miserable for those who made games to be restricted like this.

It's not dancing with shackles anymore, it's dancing in full restraint clothes!

The first players of the game were at a loss when they entered the game, and they didn't know what to do.

Quest system?

As long as you can get it, how you want to wear it, whatever you want.

The map is big, you can go wherever you want.

Fight monsters to upgrade? You don't even have a level, you upgrade a yarn!

It wasn't until Pan Long played the game that after many patches, the game's newcomer guidance system was a little more friendly, and a group of guide NPCs were set up to guide players to familiarize themselves with various operations in this game.

In the words of the players, "First, we determine the number '1', and then we determine the basic axiom of '1+1=2'." Okay, now that you're familiar with the game, let's get down to business – and give us a calculus problem."

What madness this is!

Anyway, Pan Long himself, after spending about ten minutes to familiarize himself with the game operation under the guidance of the guide NPC, went out to fight monsters with a wooden stick. As a result, nothing was hit, and while crossing the suspension bridge, he accidentally fell into the moat and drowned......

It couldn't be helped, he was old and his legs were not flexible, and a young man next to him ran like a mad mule, and hit him, and then he couldn't stand firm at all, and stumbled and fell.

Pan Long himself didn't feel aggrieved, anyway, he died in the game and it didn't hurt or itch, he just fell into the water, and then the system popped up a prompt [You are old and old, unable to swim, drowned in the moat] - then he was at the resurrection point, and even the wooden stick in his hand was not lost because of his tight grip.

It's just that the young man is a little decrepit, and somehow he was saddled with a murder......

When Pan Long left the city for the second time, he saw him tied up by the guards and stuffed into a cage, shouting inside: "My lord, I have been wronged!"

The shout was really sincere and miserable, and the onlookers were laughing.

Pan Long himself was of course one of them, and he laughed very loudly.

Who says people should be kind when they get old? Even if you want to be kind, you don't need to be kind in the game.

As a player, he is a narrow ghost until he dies!

It's just that the time to experience the game is limited after all, and Pan Long's age is really not suitable for playing this game - when he went out of the city to fight monsters later, even the lowest-level monsters ran faster than his two old legs, and they couldn't catch up at all.

So his full dive into the game career is only half an hour.

"I really can't imagine that just half an hour of the game will leave that deep impression on my heart......"

Looking at the surrounding scenery, Pan Long couldn't help but smile happily.

At this moment, the past and present lives seemed to be connected, which made him feel extremely intimate.
