Chapter 14: A Game Changer

Wang Yue's first night in this game was to lie on the bed and spend it slowly, early in the morning, he was woken up by the secret words of the stars, opened it and looked, the time is now more than nine o'clock in the morning, and then at the bottom of the time, but saw that the number of deaths in the game was exactly double that of yesterday, more than 100,000 people. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

'What's going on?' When Loki appeared yesterday, there were still more than 450,000 people alive, and how could the number have doubled so much in one night, so he hurriedly got up and left his room and went to look for him in the room of the stars. 'Is Min Min still sleeping?' and then glanced at Min Min's state and found that she was still sleeping.

After walking into Xingchen's room, he found that he was eating breakfast there slowly, and after seeing Wang Yue's arrival, "Sit down." He pointed to the chair in front of him and motioned for him to sit down and have breakfast with him.

"What's going on, how can so many people die in one night?" but now he wasn't in the mood for breakfast, but was shocked that more than 50,000 people had died in one night, and wanted answers from him.

"I don't know. In response to Wang Yue's question, Xingchen could only shrug his shoulders and reply, "Do you think that I know everything about this game because I and Loki are both time-travelers?" ”

“...... I'm sorry. I'm so shocked, too. Please don't mind. After hearing Xingchen's words, Wang Yue hurriedly apologized, and at the same time complained to him, "Who told you to sit here and eat breakfast so calmly early in the morning, as if it was normal for the death toll to double yesterday." ”

"I'm sorry about that. I've always been like this. ”

"Xingchen, aren't you afraid of death? ”

Xingchen was still eating breakfast slowly, looking at his movements, Wang Yue couldn't help but ask curiously. Even if he is a time-traveler, he is also a flesh-and-blood person, if he dies, there will be nothing, but from his various indications, he is too calm, calm and terrifying, as if death is just a daily routine for him.

"It's not like I haven't died. Xingchen put the cut meat in his mouth, and then chewed it carefully for a while before swallowing it, and only after swallowing it did he speak slowly.

"That's right. "This is when Wang Yue remembered that Xingchen had already died once after forging the Dragon Yin Sword, but now that he was sitting in front of him intact, it also showed that his ability and rebirth had a certain relationship, 'How old is this person?' Thinking of this, Wang Yue couldn't help but peek in his heart at the real age of the child in front of him, who seemed to be only ten years old.

"How old I am is not a question you should be thinking about right now. ”

'He can read minds. ’

"It's not mind reading, it's the look on your face that already tells me what you're thinking. If I can't even read words and colors, wouldn't I be too a failure as a traverser? When Wang Yue just wanted to guess Xingchen's true age, he opened his mouth and said that these were not the point, just when Wang Yue complained in his heart that Xingchen could read minds, he said that he could see it from his face. And said that if he can't even see such a simple and easy-to-understand idea, then he, a traverser, is really a failed existence.

"Huh. That's right, too. "Compared to Xingchen, who has eaten more food in front of him than he has eaten salt, what is he thinking, if he can't see it, then he has really lived in vain for so long.

Unable to get an answer from Xingchen, Wang Yue had to wait quietly for him to finish breakfast, after eating breakfast, "Why did you wake me up so early?" Wang Yue asked, at first he thought that Xingchen wanted to explain to himself why so many people died yesterday, but he himself didn't know what happened, so he called Wang Yue over for something else.

"I started working on the game all over again last night after you left, and found that a lot of things had been modified by Loki. Xingchen placed his character interface in front of him and began to explain.

"First of all, HP, we don't have the health bar anymore, and we don't even have other stats. In its place, only the body parts are there. "Pointing to his character interface.,There's no yesterday's HP.,Experience bar.、Strength、Agility、Speed、Defense.。

"You mean Loki has eliminated them all, and if you want to level up with experience, it's impossible to make yourself stronger. If you want to become stronger, you have to exercise your body as you do in reality, otherwise it will not change. ”

"Hmm. That's right. Loki has made the game more realistic, which is impossible if you want to deal with the fire wolf and deal with the bosses that follow. Looking at the empty, empty character interface, Wang Yue opened his mouth to guess, and Xingchen nodded to indicate that his guess was correct, and explained that Wang Yue no longer had the ability to rely on the game's bug settings to fight like before.

"Your Vulcan Heart can absorb the flames generated by the fire wolf's attacks, but it can't absorb the strength with which he attacks you. Seeing that Wang Yue didn't understand the game loopholes he was talking about, Xingchen had no choice but to explain.

"I see. After listening to Xingchen's explanation, Wang Yue also understood that the reason why Loki was doing this was because he didn't want anyone to take advantage of the game's loopholes to fight. The fire wolf attacks himself with his claws, and when he attacks, the claws are automatically wrapped around the flames, and the heart of the fire god can absorb the damage caused by the flames, but he has no way to stop the fire wolf's sharp claws. Therefore, Wang Yue was able to defeat the fire wolf because the system determined that the damage caused by the attack was all fire attributes, and the heart of the fire god could be fully absorbed. Loki also discovered this vulnerability, so he changed it yesterday to make it more difficult.

As for not letting players level up to improve their strength, it is also to increase the difficulty of the game.

"And I've found that even if we die, we don't disappear into thin air as data. ”

"Hmm. I know that. "Those people on the picture last night, even after they died, they could clearly see their corpses, and even saw the picture when they were gnawed by monsters, the bloody picture made Wang Yue's already unsatisfying appetite feel disgusting again.

"Why did he do this?" he was completely puzzled by Loki's behavior, and if it was to add to the truth, he wouldn't believe it if he was killed.

"In order to increase the psychological burden of surviving players. When you see the death count, you just think that a lot of people have died, but if their bodies don't disappear, the surviving players will have to bury them, and as more and more people are buried, the surviving players will also have a trace of inexplicable fear in their hearts, because they are worried about whether they will be the next corpse to be buried by other players. ”

"Even if they can really clear the game, do you think that what they have experienced here, will those psychological counseling outside understand? Can they get out of the nightmare they have experienced here? Will the country let go of this group of talents with good combat quality? Even after some people go back, they may still think that they have not left here, but the map has changed, and the NPCs have changed, resulting in mental disorders, but it will cause turmoil in social security. Even if they clear the level and survive to the end, they can't erase what they have experienced here. ”

"This ....." Wang Yue listened to Xingchen's words, and also understood what he meant, although he had only been in contact with a few NPCs, he could say with great certainty that if there was no system, it would be difficult to distinguish the difference between players and NPCs.

Xingchen is also right, a bunch of data and a genuine corpse, the shock brought by that is even stronger, this point is not comparable at all, even if the psychological quality of the person is very good, he may not be able to look at the friends around him, and die in front of him again and again, and he can only bury them in the thick soil, and survive for a long time. Mental torture is far more terrible than physical torture, and Loki uses this perfectly.

The whole room fell silent with Xingchen's words, and after a while, he stood up, walked to Wang Yue, who was still a little sluggish, and put his hand on his shoulder, "Let's go." While Min Min hasn't woken up yet, let's go out and find out what happened last night, right?"

"Hmm. ”
