Chapter 040: Empty Water Glass
Liu Yuchen wandered around the village casually, not in a hurry to fight monsters and upgrade. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Dimensional games, I've never heard of them before." He no-clips the screen, opens the browser and types in the word "dimensional game", but he can't find any results related to it.
There are only a few posts in various forums, and they are all related to "Abyss Brave EX". The posters are all players who are as curious about the game producer as Liu Yuchen.
There was no way, he could only give up for the time being. He was more interested in the background design of this mystery game than in the fight with monsters. However, the results of the two-hour exploration surprised him a little...... And a hint of incomprehension.
Liu Yuchen's character's first story mission starts with an elf girl named "Liya" in the village.
The village revolves around Riya's thoughts, and players can find the answer to an exotic tune from the tavern chanter. It turns out that Lea didn't belong here, but came from a distant country called Delos.
Her family was persecuted by a wealthy nobleman in the Delos Empire and eventually settled into this small village. Recently, she has been thinking about her hometown and wants to entrust the brave to go to a place called "Forest of Tranquility" to find a flower from the Delos Empire.
The plot of the story is very ordinary, and there are no too twists and turns. The only decipherment element lies in the minstrand's song...... Liu Yuchen admired the meticulousness of the producer more and more, the music was very nice and tactful, and he sang in a language he couldn't understand, but he expressed a deep sorrow.
Combined with the background music, which is often sung by an Imperial veteran on the side of the street in the village, players can discover that the two are actually one song entirely. When asked about the veteran, the veteran tells the player that the song originated from the Delos Empire.
After getting the clues, the plot of Leah gradually unfolds.
The delicate scenes and rich background music make the experience of this game plot full of fun. Liu Yuchen had the feeling that he was reading a wonderful novel or watching a movie, which made him unable to stop at all, and his attention gradually immersed himself in the game world.
The veterans' complaints about the Empire's actions, the villagers' worries about the bandits around them. From the words of these NPCs, through these scattered information, a mysterious and dangerous place of tranquility was formed in Liu Yuchen's mind.
This gave him a delusion.
It's as if the game is a real world, and the NPCs' words and deeds and reactions to things are too real. And the narrative used in the game is more surprising and interesting, with the characters rarely giving direct clues, but allowing you to discover the hidden story little by little.
The game is indispensable for the battle plot. But Liu Yuchen never expected that the map scene that was unintentionally destroyed during the battle would become an important influence on the next plot.
Veteran Rum: "You broke Old Jack's bar...... Most veterans knew that in the third cupboard was Old Jack's most prized wine. Take advantage of the fact that Old Jack has just drunk too much and fall asleep, so let's run! By the time he woke up, it would be too late. ā
Liu Yuchen worked hard to earn a weapon in his hand, and awakened his first professional skill "Blood Desire", just missing Liya's token, he could start the task of the Quiet Forest, how could he give up so easily?
He only took the words of the veteran rum as a nonsense plot triggered by accident and did not take it to heart.
Later, when Old Jack appeared in the village with the village guards, it was too late for Liu Yuchen to manipulate the character to escape. In the end, his character was caught in Old Jack's bar, where he needed to work to earn 500 copper coins to redeem himself.
It's actually just 20 minutes of on-hook.
Liu Yuchen stretched his waist, and before he knew it, a long time had passed, the sun had completely set, and it was dark outside the window.
He logged on to the "Ark Island" game forum and found that the Abyss World EX section had been added to the forum. In the version chat, players discussed the plot of the game with great interest.
Someone posted: "I just received a plot, called 'The Giants of the Delos Empire: The Fall of the Drettley Family', and I was asked to find an NPC called Ria in the mission, this game does not have an NPC search function, where should I find it?" ā
This is followed by a long list of replies.
"There must be clues in the details, let's look for them carefully. The details of this game are so perfectly done, the key point of my last mission turned out to be a painting hanging in the square of Freezing Point, and I asked the NPC next to it to find out that this picture scroll came from a painter named Damon. ā
"What you said upstairs is true? I took Damon's plot...... This painting seems to have been sent by me, and by the way, my ID is a large black crystal. ā
"How is that possible? Can different players' game plots still affect each other? What a complex mission system this must be! ā
"It's not just about influencing each other, I've found that every move of the players causes changes in the game. For example, I just received a commission called Leon's Wrath, and when I finished the quest and found this NPC, I found that this kid had already hung up...... Chatting with the NPC next to me, I found out that I was brutally killed by a timeless brave man called the big black crystal, and then I received a commission from the government to track down the killer's clues......"
Liu Yuchen became more and more surprised.
From the communication between the players, he got an amazing fact. Instead of individual story missions, each player's actions make up a complete game world.
As for the Deletley family in the mouth of the owner of the post, it is obviously the enemy of the elf girl Leya.
He replied below, "I know there is a girl named Leah in the village of Gaso. The village of Gaso is southwest of Storm Cliffs, so look for it. ā
After discovering the true connotation of this game, Liu Yuchen became more and more interested in the game. Before this, he would never have imagined that there would be such a role-playing game with the world plot as the core gameplay.
It gave him the feeling that he was experiencing another new world.
Liu Yuchen praised the producer's intentions in his heart, but only praised a few words. He was just about to close the forum, and found a post in the forum where a veteran user "cleared his mind".
Empty distractions and rarely post, but every time you post, it is always full of dry goods, and people can't help but admire the scriptures. Everyone speculates that this person is probably also a researcher in reality.
The title of the post reads: "Game content organization. Is this really a game? ā
There are 14 mp3 audio files attached to it.
"After a full day of playing, I was not only impressed by the exquisite details of the game, but also made me a little skeptical. The first is the music of the songs in the game's plot. In reality, I do research on ancient languages, and I have a certain sensitivity to unfamiliar languages. At first glance, these songs may sound like haphazard language, but I actually found some crucial things in common, which is that they have the exact same linguistic structure. ā
"This language, which I call Abyssal, is supposed to be a very special kind of inflection, modified by root inflections. Some of the decorative books found in the game confirmed my suspicions. Through the frequency of pronunciation, combined with the plot environment and voice, I have summarized the Chinese meanings of the following pronunciations. ā
"pae, refers to me in the first person. Dio, it's the second person you. om, is the third person to him. And zeek, I guess it's the sky......"
The reply in the post shocked Liu Yuchen even more.
"The landlord was attentive. I also found something interesting. I like to observe astronomy, and I am quite interested in calculating the movement of celestial bodies. The game happens to have several plots related to astronomical phenomena, and there are star maps and related astronomical records that players can read. The astronomical situation in the game is completely different from reality, but I selected a few key data and combined them with formulas to calculate, but found that the laws of the celestial bodies in the game are completely self-consistent and conform to the formula theorem. ā
"People who don't have access to astronomy may think it's nothing. To put it another way to put it more easily, astronomy is a theoretical science based on observations, and to simulate and calculate a reasonable model of the motion of galaxies, it requires at least supercomputer-level computing power. Let me mention that the Mingguang supercomputer of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has been carrying out related calculations recently......"
Liu Yuchen can understand the doorways in the education system. Where is this astronomy enthusiast, it is clear that he is an expert in this field! can know the role of the supercomputer computing task of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, at least the relevant person in charge at the senior professor level.
Liu Yuchen felt that his throat was a little dry and wanted to drink water, but when he picked up the cup, it was empty.
Looking at the screen, the exquisite picture seems to hide some terrible secret.
"What the hell is this game?"
