Chapter 387: Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles
In mid-April, many players in China noticed the latest large-scale event of Aurora Games through their mobile phones and computers, "Find Your Assassin". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Event 1 - "Master Assassins".
Players can participate in this event through the event interface of the Aurora game, and they can vote for their favorite assassins, regardless of the nationality of these assassins, that is, players can vote for those famous assassins in the East and the West.
After the voting event ends, the Assassin with the most numbers will be selected by Aurora Games to draw 100,000 from all the players who voted for this assassin to receive a customized poster and a customized figure!
Activity 2 - "What is the assassin in your mind" There will be a link to the essay on the event interface of the Aurora game, and 100 articles will be selected by the Aurora game, and players will vote using their mobile phones, and each mobile phone number can only cast one vote.
The article with the most votes will receive a cash prize of $10,000 and a mystery gift.
The other top 10 articles will be awarded according to their position, but they will be given a mystery gift.
As for what exactly is this so-called mysterious gift?
Hehe, it's actually a collector's edition of the Assassin's Creed game and a custom poster and a custom doll of Uncle Ai.
In Event 3 - "Assassin's Creed", players can vote on the event interface every day to exchange points, get 1 point on the first day of voting, sign in, get 2 points on the second day, 3 points on the third day, and so on.
There are two voting options: one is the creed of the Eastern Assassins, represented by the Chinese Assassins.
The other is the Creed revered by Western Assassins as shown in the game Assassin's Creed.
Event 3 will last for a week, and every 10 points can be used to spin the lucky wheel for free, with Aurora coins, game props, figures, pillows and other game peripherals, and it is a 100% winning rate.
Of course, most players will draw it, after all, Ye Le is not charity, the company lost so much money some time ago, and now it is impossible to spend tens of millions of dollars to engage in a stand-alone game activity.
Therefore, the actual value of these prizes is 5 million yuan in addition to game props, but if you include those limited-time props that are not useful but are expensive, it is difficult to count and there are 20 million.
However, those items are only limited-time items in the game, and the cost of each item is almost zero.
The only effect is that players may give up buying the same type of props during the period of time when the item is reflected.
"Profit" is the most effective way to drive people.
The event was considered to be quite rewarding to the players, so the number of participants was also quite large, so there was even a trend of discussion about what an assassin is in the player community.
Many players go online to find information,
The Chinese people in this era have been more or less influenced by those film and television dramas.
So much so that the first time many people hear the word assassin, they can't help but think of "Someone, there is an assassin, hurry up!", "Hurry up, protect the lord (miss)!"
Originally, in the eyes of many people, assassins and killers were equated, but in fact, when players learned about the deeds of those assassins with great interest, they finally found a clue.
Ancient Assassins could be understood as "doormen", and they mainly did secret tasks such as killing, stealing, and spreading rumors.
But they are definitely not not focused on killing.
And the actions should be weird and not noticeable, just like the ninja we are talking about now, or even undercover.
Killer is a more modern term, mainly hired to kill, recognize money but not people, and do nothing but kill.
Killers are a profession in which they are generally employed by a certain organization, and most of them have undergone rigorous training.
Killing people is their profession, but asking about other things, "you give money, I do things", is not as beautiful and humane as described in some novels.
In comparison, the Assassins were much older.
They may be an organization or an individual, they are not primarily driven by murder, they are not necessarily motivated by money, but by various reasons.
For example, out of the word "righteousness", out of personal grudges and political factors, I don't know how many times more noble than the killer.
They achieved certain goals by assassinating certain important figures, such as Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin, in order to overthrow the Qin Dynasty with the death of the King of Qin.
These people know that they have a high chance of dying regardless of whether they succeed or not, but they still have an obligation to do it, and most killers alone can't do this.
So what exactly is an assassin?
Players who participated in the event finally redefined their subconscious perception of assassins because of this seemingly ordinary game activity.
Assassins are a special profession in human history, often responsible for the murder or assassination of a target person for political or personal reasons.
Some Assassins were solo assassins, others were multi-person Assassins, some were full-time Assassins with strict training, and some were accidentally Assassins due to the objective environment, just like many famous Assassins in China, who were "halfway monks"
。
And an assassin like Jing Ke is obviously not an "old driver".
Because he is not an old driver and does not have a driver's license, he easily overturned.
was used by the king of Qin to run around the "tower" by the king of Qin, and finally died for the kite.
And when the picture is poor, he stands in front of others and can't kill others with a knife, what is the difference between playing LOL and sticking to his face when he is empty?
However, his spirit, courage and righteousness are worth learning from everyone, that is certain.
In addition to "Xiao Se Yi Shui: Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin"
's assassin story, Huaxia itself has many stories that have been handed down, such as the fish intestine shock: specializing in assassinating the king
, Wei Wei rescued Zhao: Zhu Hai stabbed Jin Contempt
, The Flower of Tangtang: Nie Zheng is tired
, taste the national thief: Cao Cao stabbed Dong Zhuo
。
So an assassin and a killer are two different things.
They may be instructed by others, or out of personal hatred, or for money, fame, or for the people of the country.
Historical records of Assassins from all over the world have recorded their deeds, and there are also Assassin activities in modern times. The Security Service of many countries has an Assassin-like secret service position, such as the CIA in the United States, the KGB in the former Soviet Union, the Mossad in Israel, and so on.........
Some terrorist organizations now also train agents (assassins) who specialize in assassinating and murdering leaders and other dignitaries.
So by the players' summary, most of the ancient Assassins had their own creed, while the Killers believed in money and status.
To be honest, assassins are definitely one of the oldest professions in human history.
Professional assassins in China had already appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Often for political reasons, he is responsible for the assassination of the target.
Assassins often aim to inflict a fatal blow on the target and their related objects in a short period of time.
Everyone is familiar with the book "Historical Records", right?
The Han Dynasty historian Sima Qian's work "Historical Records" is listed as the first of the "Twenty-four History".
It includes the "Twelve Chronicles" that record the political achievements of the emperors of the past dynasties, the "Thirty Families" that record the princes of the vassal states and the Han Dynasty, the rise and fall of the nobles, the words and deeds of important figures, the main narrators, and the courtiers, the last of which is the "Seventy Columns" with a self-preface, as well as ten tables and eight books.
One of them is the "Legend of the Assassins"! It is conceivable that the Assassin was not so unbearable in history, on the contrary, it was a very important profession.
"Legends of the Assassins" is the earliest biographical history of Assassins in China, among which the "Four Assassins" with the creed of "death for a confidant" are the most famous!
What kind of creed is this?!And how can the loyalty in it be comparable to those of modern killers?
So when most players see this famous sentence that is so familiar that they can't be more familiar with it, it's even a little hard to imagine that this is actually from the Chinese assassin!
For a while, the players reacted differently, some people laughed and scolded themselves for reading less before, and today they have seen more, while others were very surprised and shocked, and couldn't help but silently go to the event page to vote for the four major assassins in China.
But from the backstage data of the official event of Aurora Games, most people chose to give tickets to Jing Ke, and Ye Le had to admit that this was indeed the most famous "assassin" in Huaxia.......
Some players even sighed: The early Chinese assassins had relatively simple motives for assassination, and often went to assassinate because they were grateful for the kindness of their clients, and I think they also had some "chivalrous" atmosphere!
Then there were a lot of netizen comments.
"Our Huaxia assassins are awesome!"
"I've decided to vindicate these Assassins from today!"
............
Assassins were often very secretive, often taking advantage of the unpreparedness of their targets.
That's right, you go and see what Li Bai said together?!
He once wrote in the song "Chivalrous Journey" that made countless people watch it for a long time.
"Kill one person in ten steps, don't stay for a thousand miles; ”
That's right, this is a "masterpiece" written to portray the characteristics of this mysterious character!
If you want to talk about ancient Chinese assassins, you have to mention Yu Rang during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Today's widely circulated "the man who is a confidant dies, and the woman is the one who pleases himself", comes from the story of this old man.
Of course, he is also known as one of the "Four Great Assassins of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period".
In the late Spring and Autumn period, there was a social phenomenon worthy of attention, and that was the continuous emergence of various Assassins.
This is a group of samurai who live in the people, do not seek wealth and wealth, advocate moderation and righteousness, and have courage or martial arts. They were in the same accord with some powerful people, and they were born and died in order to repay the kindness of their acquaintances, although they died without mercy.
In today's words, "How powerful and rich he looks up to me so much, this Nima is my Bole!
When people talk about the ancient profession of assassins, they naturally think of those Western assassins.
The Assassin profession is not unique to China, and their stories can be seen in the West.
Ye Le: The "Assassin's Creed" they are currently working on is about those Western Assassins.
Speaking of Western Assassins, then we must first trace their origins.
However, this source is really somewhat complicated, and the famous assassination incident in the West can be traced back to the assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 BC.
And when it comes to a truly organized and large-scale Assassin organization, it must be mentioned that the Assasin faction appears in the Assassin's Creed game.
The Assasins are actually a heretical sect of Muslims.
It was militant and militant, active between the 8th and 14th centuries, and could be employed for a variety of political or religious purposes.
In the game, the protagonist of the Assasin faction, Aytar, in order to protect the Islamic holy city of Jerusalem from the Crusaders, carries out assassination of the minds of the Crusader organization again and again.
Historically, however, the group has carried out terrorist assassinations against the Abbasid elite, and even Saladin has been repeatedly attacked by them.
It can be seen that the Asasin faction in this history does not necessarily have any creed, and what they believe in is probably a unique fanaticism in their bones.
Tragically, the Assasin faction was eventually exterminated.....
That's right, exterminated .... I don't know if Uncle Ai really exists, if he will cry blind in heaven when he learns about it.
What's more worth mentioning is that it was none other than the Mongol Empire of Genghis Khan, a fierce man who was also famous in Chinese history from China to the West!
That's right, it's Genghis Khan who is often mentioned by people who "bend the bow and shoot the eagle", and even "bend the bow and shoot the eagle" is often used as a stalk.
At the height of the Mongol Empire, the territory of the Mongol Empire stretched north to Siberia in the north, the South China Sea in the south, Central Asia in the northwest, and the Sea of Okhotsk in the northeast.
However, Assasin's name was brought back to the West at the same time as the Crusades, and the term "Assassin" was derived.
The English word for Assassin is derived from the Arabic word for "Hashshashin".
By the way, the "Old Man in the Mountain" mentioned in Mr. Jin Yong's "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" has been verified to be Hassan bin Saba, the founder of Assasin Paid, and the story in the novel was unearthed after "Assassin's Creed" became popular all over the world in the previous life, which can not help but make people laugh.
In fact, Ye Le had not thought about making a Huaxia version of "Assassin's Creed" before, using the story and background of Huaxia to show every player the charm of this game.
But he thought about it or forgot it, now Aurora Games is taking an international route, and now the output of Chinese culture has not yet reached the point where everyone buys it, to be honest here, foreign players are indeed a little more genuine than Chinese players, so it is expected that a large part of the sales of this game will come from abroad, which is also the most important reason why Ye Le continues to let "Assassin's Creed" tell the story of "Ezio".
Assassin's Creed is a game that has been played for a long time, and players feel that the plot is very thick and full, and it is worth experiencing.
They will love the reverence that the Assassins have for the dead in the game.
Even though they kill people in the game, every time they kill a target, they say: Rest in peace.
Despite the man's wickedness, the Assassins would do their best to make his death peaceful, making his death less painful. After all, the dead are great, and the existence of every life is worthy of respect.
When killing Savonarola, Uncle Ai will say: no one should die in such pain.
Ye Le still remembers that when Uncle Ai killed someone, he would often comfort the deceased softly in the VR version of the game.
Assassins kill people, not out of hatred, but simply for those who do evil to go to another world to be judged. People who are going to face death should not be made to endure painful torture, so they always kill with one blow.
What is death? Maybe it's just going to another world.
Perhaps for the Assassins, giving death to those who deserved it was a form of forgiveness.
Unlike the Chinese Assassins' belief in the creed of "death for the confidant", Uncle Ai and the others have their own creed, that is: when everyone else is blindly pursuing the truth, remember that everything is false.
When other people's minds are bound by law and morality, remember that all is allowed.
We plough the darkness but serve the light
All things are false, all things are allowed........
So this event is nothing more than Ye Le's expectation of the game by letting players understand the assassin culture and then fall into this "pit".
The higher it will be, and when it comes time to release the game, I just want to pirate the game in advance to play this game, I don't know how many players choose the genuine version instead of piracy, after all, the most afraid of doing this kind of paid stand-alone game is piracy.
