Chapter 128: Awakened NPCs
On the small wooden table in the stone mill, Muzi has been trapped for more than ten years after being called by a game called "iQue", and is writing a diary as usual:
Today is the thousandth and third day of my conversation with a passerby, and the new brave man is carrying a shield and looks like he has just turned black, so I decided to communicate with him and get out of the predicament one at a time.
However, I was wrong, it was not, he was a brave man with ideals and pursuits, and soon after I ate the closed door, there was a brave man in black uniform with a sword, he had a good temper, but he was a bit of a favorite female teammate.
Forget it, for more than a decade I've been trying to escape from this mill, and his windmill has blown me with pain in my cervical spine.
When, when, in the dead of night, but remembered the knock on the door, who would be the liver emperor in the middle of the night?
Ah, when I opened the door, I saw that it was a lonely witch, level twelve, just out of the level of the novice village, and her current task should be to eliminate the wild boar king who attacked the village.
"Can you give me some treatment, I'm seriously injured!"
Oh, such a seductive witch, she actually fell.
"What are you doing to save people, the brave will slowly recover their own blood, why bother with it, I'd better sleep for a while, and wait for tomorrow morning this witch's body will be fine!"
He picked up the witch and threw her on the table, while he himself took the candle in one hand and went up to the attic, so that it was not necessary to have a good night's sleep.
"No, sir, I will die, believe me, there are some people in this world who are very slow to regenerate their own blood, and will really die, and will not be resurrected!"
Yes, Muzi himself is like this, he will slowly heal like a normal person after every injury, and he will also get sick, sleepy, hungry, and thirsty, while ordinary NPCs will not be like this.
In other words, this witch is also the same kind of person, and she was also called after reaching the full level in the game's closed beta.
No, wait, wait for the opportunity to act, what if it is a task under special circumstances?
"Mr. Farmer, I'm a beginner witch in the village, and I'm in charge of learning the skills of the brave, so it stands to reason that we can't leave within ten meters of our working atmosphere, and even if you do, you can only stay within a radius of twenty meters from the Stone Mill, right?"
That's right, the stone mill is like an enchantment, with an invisible wall within a radius of twenty meters, impenetrable.
But he had to be cautious, he was called to the previous point, he used to be the best in the closed beta of this game, and after reaching the full level, the game interface will pop up an option whether he wants to experience it internally, click to confirm that he was called directly here.
With a variety of hidden quests, including a classification of eliminated NPCs, iQue is touted as a highly malleable game.
"I don't understand what you're talking about, wait for the brave, work in the mill that's my job!"
The witch's face was miserable, and she said with a panicked expression, "Mr. Miller, can I call you that respectfully?"
"A year ago, a large number of NPC Awakened Ones appeared in our Carlo continent, as long as you do a little, you can get his profession and half experience by intercepting and killing a brave man!"
"I know you're a self-aware NPC willing to join us, and according to rumors, the brave come from another world, and when they die, their consciousness will return to the original world forever, and they will not be guilty. ”
Muzi wondered, the continent of Carlo is vast, full of magical plants and animals, castles and bosses, and even evil dragons and zombies.
This is impossible for any game, imagine that a player's character is permanently deleted after being killed by an NPC, and the killer becomes an uncontrollable factor.
He has always been cautious and chooses to be silent, it is impossible, there will be no uncontrollable characters in any game, which is an alternative rejection of players.
"The Awoken are NPCs who are eager to gain themselves, but a group of players who have joined forces on their own have formed a coalition of Cleaners, and they are trying to kill every Awakened One, and I" was plotted by them. ”
Muzi glanced at the witch's lower abdomen, standing covered with bloodstains, if it was an ordinary person, he would definitely believe it, but after all, he was very familiar with this game, and he himself had been injured, and the blood color between the two was almost diametrically opposed.
True blood is red, while in-game blood is blue.
He was sure that this matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed, and he pretended to be calm and stepped on the wooden ladder, da, da, da.
Muzi didn't dare to look back, because at this time the so-called injured witch was staring at him, staring intently.
"Hey, why haven't you come out yet, is he more troublesome?"
The shouts outside the house were not loud but urgent, and the witch's tone was extremely cold:
"No, he's a, not an Awakened One, let's go!Go and get rid of the next person, the head of the Novice Village, who is one hundred percent confirmed Awakened and has been trying to help other NPCs awaken!"
Bang, the door was slammed shut, and it was a long time before Muzi let out a rapid breathing sound in the room.
"It's really this kind of thing, killing a brave person can get his profession and get free, the NPC's awakened camp, the player's clearer camp, started a year ago, what the hell is going on?"
His heart was beating wildly, but he could vaguely sense the impulse in his heart, the ambition of the once top player.
"No, I have a hunch that death is real in this world, and I think the so-called Awakened and Purgeed will really disappear when they kill each other.
Players still have real-world lives, and if NPCs are alive or not, and what about me? I'm dead, but it's completely a hundred, and if I don't have infinite resurrection, I'll be finished if I die once by brushing a copy!"
He muttered to himself that the attic was actually the only room on the stairs, and downstairs was the kitchen, bathroom, and storeroom, and wheat was planted within a radius of twenty meters.
For more than a decade, he occasionally tried to go crazy by touching the barrier opportunity to escape, and he also tried to dig tunnels and fly from high places with gliding equipment made by dismantling the mill, to no avail.
Just as every plant and tree here will automatically refresh and restore after destruction, wheat grows and develops on its own with the change of seasons, and the grain, water, and ham in the storehouse will automatically renew within ten minutes, and the boundless barrier is like a huge cage.
But he only lives once, and although he can survive here, he will not be happy.
"It turns out that the game world will be such a cruel thing when it is converted to reality!"
He smiled bitterly and covered his head with the quilt to try to put himself to sleep, but his manic heart was urging him to wake up.
"There is another way, it is not just a single way to kill a player, the awakening they are talking about should be a very cruel way, it is some kind of accident that produces this kind of awakened person, I am the awakened but I can't leave here, it proves that they must have obtained something after killing the brave to break the enchantment!"
He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, thinking about this question until dawn, when he suddenly laughed with a haggard face:
"It's experience, and the experience gained is the premise and catalyst for their awakening!"
