Chapter 774: Havoc in the Heavenly Palace
Binding the headband in the device management interface, this time I was finally able to launch the game smoothly, so that the magical and magnificent world of gods and demons slowly unfolded in front of Kraven.
In accordance with international practice, the game is a standard CG opening.
The first thing that appears on the screen is an elaborate and magnificent oriental palace, and as the camera zooms out, more buildings appear on the screen, all built on large and small floating islands, connected to each other by rainbow bridges and translucent stone slabs, together forming a floating city floating above the clouds, reminding Kraven of the Hallelujah Hill of Pandora.
However, unlike the latter, this floating island has stronger artificial traces, not only the architecture is regular and exquisite, but even the location relationship of the floating island is also very neat, triangular symmetry, cross symmetry and pentagonal symmetry can be seen everywhere. There are still people living around the glowing building, some people playing chess and reading books, some people overlooking all living beings, some people casting spells and collecting medicines, and some people observing the mirror. Beneath this flying city, under the layers of clouds are the mountains, rivers, farmlands, villages and towns that are constantly flying by, and so on constitute a different and magical breath of life.
The camera continues to move over the golden rooftops and colorful rainbow bridges, and flies with Kraven's gaze towards a large island at the top.
There, he saw a huge furnace spewing flames outward, and the light of the fire even reflected on the surrounding buildings and fountains.
Then a loud bang was heard, and a black figure flew out of the toppling furnace, and then pulled out a large stick on his head and slammed it into the stove.
The furnace raised its light shield to withstand the first few blows, but soon the shield was broken, and the rod smashed the stove, shattering many fragments with the remaining fire.
After smashing the stove and letting out a bad breath, the black shadow turned his head to look around, and Kleven finally recognized him as the famous Monkey King Sun Wukong. It's just that the monkey king at this time looked quite embarrassed, the golden armor was destroyed by the fire, only some fragments were left to hang on his body, and the monkey hair on his body also turned into black ash, spilling all over the ground with his movements, bringing an inexplicable sense of joy.
Instead, his eyes were so bright that they seemed to be able to shoot light outward, reminding him of the Terminator's thermal infrared sensor, but they were golden. The monkey tried to jump up to activate his SersaultCloud, but found that he couldn't even jump on the roof, so he had to spit out the first line since the opening with a stinky face: "The Jade Emperor Lao Erte is also stingy, and he actually used the magic circle to ban the flying technique, it seems that my old grandson has no choice but to fight and fight all the way out of the South Heavenly Gate!"
As he spoke, he also looked at the bottom of the floating city, where there was a huge Chinese-style door frame, and the lintel was written with three white gold characters "Nantianmen".
As he spoke, bilingual subtitles in Chinese and English appeared below the subtitles at the same time, and the three characters Nantianmen were also bolded and highlighted. Even if someone can't understand Sun Wukong's Chinese with a strange accent, they can know from this special emphasis that Nantianmen must be very important.
After saying this, the monkey smashed the courtyard gate with a stick and rushed straight out.
It's just that when he was using the stove just now, many soldiers in gorgeous armor had already arrived at the scene one after another to surround the courtyard, and as soon as the monkey came out of the courtyard, he was surrounded in the middle, and the ice, fireballs, thunder, and lightning winds all hit him.
In the face of the siege, the Monkey King was completely fearless, an iron rod waved like the wind, the ice was shattered, the fireball was smashed, the thunder and lightning were eliminated, and the wind changed direction, and it could not hurt the monkey in the slightest.
The failure of the magic attack is only in vain, but those melee creeps with weapons in their hands are unlucky, as long as they are hit by the iron rod, they will be beaten backwards, especially unlucky will be swept into the air screaming and falling, and some extremely unlucky will be knocked out of the floating island and turned into meteors and fall to the ground.
As if to justify the soldiers, the picture suddenly froze, and a big close-up of the stick was given, only to see a line of Chinese characters in seal script on the dark red stick: "Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick, weighing 13,500 catties." At the same time, there are also notes in Chinese and English at the bottom of the screen, clearly telling Kraven that the stick weighs 7.5 tons, which is about the same weight as a heavy truck, and pedestrians will be hit by heavy trucks.
In short, the soldiers were far from being monkeys' opponents, and they were pushed down six floating islands by him all the way, and they saw that they were getting closer and closer to the escape end of Nantianmen.
However, the good times did not last long, and soon there were more gorgeously dressed and distinctive generals, including men with wings, children stepping on the flywheel of flames, and giants with electric lights around them. These people are not Sun Wukong's opponents alone, but they will not fly as soon as they fight like the soldiers in front, they cover each other and cooperate with each other, and they use wheel warfare to slow down Sun Wukong's downward attack.
The battle situation was scorched, but it hurt the flowers and plants and palace carvings on this floating island. Those strange flowers and plants have protective shields on them, which can resist certain attacks, before Sun Wukong was a dozen and left, and there were naturally not many attacks that fell on the palace garden, and the protective shield was completely able to withstand it. However, as his advance speed was greatly slowed down, the number of flowers and plants being affected by the pond fish also increased, and the scene continued to appear in the scene of the protective shield disintegrating and failing, and the strange flowers and plants being struck by fire and lightning.
Kraven didn't know the names or uses of these plants and plants, but he didn't pay much attention to them as decorations in a small garden. His attention was drawn to the scorching situation in the field, and the experience of watching commercial blockbusters for many years told him that the small climax of the opening scene was over, and the monkey was going to be unlucky.
Then he saw the camera zoom out and focus on the eggshell shield over the city. A bright spot suddenly appeared on the glowing hood, and then quickly expanded into a circular hole. Like an airplane opening an emergency escape door in the air, the air is pumped out of the hole to form a stronger and stronger wind, which rolls up the debris below to form a spectacular tornado. And in the center of the whirlwind, at some point, a palm composed of golden light appeared, and the palm quickly fell and became larger and larger, and finally turned into a huge translucent palm print and slapped on the palace in the middle.
The palm prints and the body, the protective shields on the generals and soldiers, buildings and flowers flashed for a moment and then there was no response, but the monkey in the center of the encirclement suddenly fell to the ground with a scream. When the monkey fell, the white jade floor under his feet disappeared in an instant, along with the ground below, and the monkey, which had lost its support, fell directly from the hole, and finally turned into a meteor and smashed into the ground, stirring up a huge cloud of dust and smoke to form a spectacular mushroom cloud.
Then countless stones of all sizes fell from the sky, and above the monkey's landing point, an isolated mountain with five-colored peaks was stacked and he was firmly suppressed.
Those who know the plot of Journey to the West naturally understand that this CG is about the plot of Havoc in the Heavenly Palace, and after major modifications, the plots such as the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor asking for foreign aid, the speed of gambling are deleted, the monkey pees and leaves a book, and the Fateh Zhenshan is deleted, and the monkey's havoc in the Heavenly Palace is turned into a failed escape operation, and he is arranged to be beaten down to the mortal dust to suppress the Five Elements Mountain when he is about to win.
This is not only to make the plot compact and save costs, but also to give some tips to those who are interested, indicating that this Journey to the West is different.
And this has the added benefit of compressing the plot to highlight the main line and reinforce the conflict, which can lead to a more pronounced emotional response. For example, Crooked Fruit Youren Cravin has a lot of emotions because of this CG video, the comfortable joy of life in the floating city at the beginning, the blood boiling of the wonderful fight, the anger and sadness of the sudden defeat, and the amazement and loss under the mountain of Yongzhen, all of which are faithfully recorded by the MindHoop emotional headband he wears on his head, and affect the game character he will create.
After the monkey was crushed down the mountain, the picture gradually turned yellow and darkened, and finally turned into a yellowed fur, on which the characters were outlined with simple lines, which recorded the plot of the Havoc in the Heavenly Palace just now. Then the camera panned, and Kraven saw that the piece of leather paper was being grasped from side to side by a pair of hairy hands, and a slightly old monkey was frowning at the drawing.
The old monkey put down the picture scroll, his eyes swept over the faces of a group of immature monkeys who were eager to try below, and then looked at the waterfall that made a rumbling sound behind him, "My grandfather told me that the great sage grandfather was the first to cross this waterfall and found the water curtain cave behind him, so that everyone could sleep peacefully and enjoy the blessings of starting a family, so he was worshiped as the Monkey King, the lord of all monkeys." ”
"All you little monkeys have to do today is to jump up and go through the waterfall and get inside like the great sage grandfather, and then get out again. As long as he can get in and out, and he is safe and stable without hurting his body, he is the warrior of our new generation of monkey clan, and he can wear a pioneer garland, but if he fails, he can only be a little monkey cub for another year. ”
All the monkeys in the audience laughed when they heard this, the laughter was strange but also full of joy, and some monkeys shouted below, "Be a monkey pioneer, smash the Five Elements Mountain, and rescue the Great Sage!"
Hearing this, the old monkey smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "Three hundred years have passed, the Great Sage Grandpa was suppressed and suffered under the Five Elements Mountain, and the life of our Huaguo Mountain Monkey Clan is not as good as year after year, so generation after generation of monkey pioneers are eager to rescue the Great Sage Grandpa, but they have all failed, I hope that some of you can really do it." ”
Then he pointed to a stack of blank vellum paper on the stone table, "Now, you come up one by one, leave your names on it, and then you can have a trial." ”
As before, the monkeys still spoke "monkey pu" with a strange accent, but fortunately there were bilingual subtitles at the bottom of the screen, which did not prevent Kraven from understanding the content of the dialogue.
After watching the three little monkeys jump over the waterfall, the picture in front of him moved again, the camera representing the main perspective shook forward, and "he" jumped up to the parchment and leaned over, and sure enough, the English operation options and a flashing cursor appeared on the parchment.
Although the abrupt change was somewhat inconsistent, he said he had gotten used to it, expertly manipulating the joystick to move the cursor, with Bale's last name and Calan's first name, which was his nickname.
In the next parent column, he wanted to fill in Han and Doris, but found that this column did not support input, and could only be selected from the list provided by the system.
After clicking on the drop-down menu, he realized that the so-called parent column is actually a specialty column, and he matches his character with talent and specialty by "selecting parents", and there is a certain chance of producing fusion mutation specialty.
There are many types of talents, but they are not very powerful when you look at the text description, Kraven probably chose the two specialties of "strong" and "sharp eyes" after looking at it, no matter how strong you are, it is always right to run fast and see far.
After clicking Next, he saw his "self" probe looking towards a basin of water on the table, and there was a clear reflection in it, which was a young and cute monkey face.
Since this game is named after the Monkey King, the protagonist has to be a monkey even if he is not Sun Wukong.
This step is obviously to adjust the facial features, drag the slider and take a look, he found that the adjustment items are quite rich, but they are all monkeys, and it doesn't look like a big difference, so he directly clicked the Rand random button to change his own look, and he clicked the next step because he felt good.
After quickly getting the character created, he stomped his hands and feet to try to control the golden retriever monkey named CalanBale, guided by the beginner's tutorial.
The control mode of this game can be said to be semi-somatosensory, the induction rings on the hands and feet can detect acceleration and position changes, and the system will intelligently analyze them and convert them into the movements of the game characters. The same is true for hand movements, which do not require the player to make exactly the same movements as the characters, so they are said to be semi-somatological.
This is naturally not as good as complete somatosensory control in terms of substitution, but it is much easier in terms of technical implementation, and the physical requirements for the player are much smaller, and it is also more compatible with the "sit and play" game mode. After just a few repetitions, Kraven had already roughly memorized the control method, controlling the monkey to walk towards the waterfall.
The water body of the waterfall is very effective, and the water that flows down the spring forms a stream of water like a real waterfall, so just observe and memorize the movement patterns, and then run and jump in the direction of the faintly visible hole. Without even using a chance to do it all over again, Calan the monkey jumped straight into the water curtain hole in the back.
It's a very beautiful cave with shimmering stones and creatures, so it doesn't look dim. Kraven didn't rush out to complete the trial, he first pressed the screenshot button of the controller, then called up the settings panel to turn on the no-optimization mode, and then took another screenshot on the spot, and then raised his feet and ran out.
Soon his little monkey roared out of the waterfall and took in the scenery of Huaguo Mountain, which had opened the beauty mode.
It is a huge mountain range covered by broad-leaved trees, and when you look up, you can see the alpine rhododendrons in bloom, and when you look down, you can see the bright fruits hanging from the branches.
