If it weren't for the figure and name seen on the screenshot, the girl might have completely forgotten about the other party.
Human memories are often so short, even lovers who have truly loved each other, will slowly forget each other after a few years of breakup, not to mention computer programs with limited intelligence.
But the figure was still standing under the tree, holding a flute and playing a tune. In the post, the landlord and the floor owner are describing the one they are in from their own perspective, and under the screenshot of the girl's one, the floor owner writes.
"The man's name was Dole, and he was the owner of an orchard. He usually plays the flute under this tree, and his favorite song is "Love Meets", followed by "Butterfly and Caterpillar". He would sometimes give people the task of picking the best apples from the orchard and sending them to the church for preservation. This way he can keep the apples in store all the time, because his wife likes apples the most, but she hasn't been back for a long time. ”
Seeing this, the girl couldn't hold back any longer, covered her mouth and started crying.
She actually doesn't like to eat apples at all, and only because the Oz apples in the other party's orchard give double skill experience, so she claims to like them the most. And the two songs "Love Meet" and "Butterfly and Caterpillar" were also taught by her to Dole.
Because of copyright issues, there are restrictions on the types of songs that NPCs can bring with them in infinite time and space. But Xingze has a small program embedded in it, so that players can teach NPCs to sing by themselves, the number of songs is limited, not everyone can teach, and NPCs don't play and sing everywhere casually, so it's not an infringement, it's just a way to play.
It took a lot of effort for the girl to teach Dole to sing and play. There are two ways for players to teach NPC songs, one is to directly select the corresponding option and sing it to each other. Teaching tunes in this way is very convenient, but it also has relative disadvantages. The speech recognition technology of infinite time and space is extremely powerful, but it is also quite rigid, so if the player hums the tune inaccurately or sings poorly, the NPC will also have a problem learning the content.
The other is to learn music notation.
When the girl first taught, she struggled to find the score, and then typed it one symbol at a time, and finally taught Dole two songs.
It took a lot of effort to do this, so she remembered it very well. It's just that after all, so much time has passed, and she hasn't thought much about these things in a long time. If it weren't for the fact that the memory suddenly confused her face when she saw this post, she probably would never have realized so deeply what she had left behind.
In the end, for the girl, this is just a more interesting way to play in the game.
However, when she saw the post, her feelings were suddenly so full that they were almost pouring out, and all the memories that had been sealed in the dust instantly found a gap and gradually surfaced.
She suddenly wanted to return to the Demon Realm, and she really wanted to see the character she once liked with her own eyes. Even though it's just a game NPC, the girl is still touched.
In the past few years, she has been tossing and turning between servers and servers, although there are no strategy NPCs, but in reality there is also a relationship. But sometimes, the feelings of the real world are mixed with too many interests and practical considerations, and people always need to keep giving in and compromise.
In this case, pure emotion is almost impossible. She has been in love and has made all kinds of friends, but she has not been lucky enough to find someone who will comfort herself when she is sad, share it with her when she is happy, and play with her when she is stressed...... In reality, everyone has their own lives, and even lovers and loved ones are not always there when you need them.
However, there is such a game character who can do things that many people can't do in reality.
For the girl, this is not actually love, because she knows very well that the game program is just a game program after all, and they always act according to the program, without zài's real feelings.
- Every time you open the game, Hoshizawa faithfully reminds the player of this.
But even so, it does not prevent many people from using it as emotional sustenance. Although these characters are still some distance away from real people, they already have enough ability to communicate with people at least basics. Even in this virtual world, they are able to get along with each other.
The moment she saw the screenshot in the post, the girl had an urge to go back to the place where she first entered "Infinite Time and Space" and see that person again.
She said just do it, took the task on the same day, and completed the task a few hours later, successfully crossing the server.
The girl finds Dole's orchard from memory and comes to the apple tree in the screenshot, but is surprised to find that she doesn't see the other party. She was stunned for a moment, and then she vaguely remembered that sometimes, some times, that person would be busy in the orchard, or go to the city to make deliveries, and not just play the flute under the tree.
There was no one in the orchard, so the girl found a tree and sat down against its trunk.
She operated the mouse, moved the camera, made the vision slanted and began to face the sky, and suddenly remembered a lot of things.
For example, she used to sit on this tree and talk to Dole while practicing her skills. Before Dole goes to the city to make deliveries, he often picks a few fruits with the best attributes for her, such as apples with a particularly high skill experience multiplier effect, pears with a large amount of experience directly, and peaches with reputation amplification effects...... At that time, the sun was pouring down from the treetops, and she wished she could break the computer screen that blocked the two worlds and pounce on it and kiss Dole's handsome cheek.
Then she heard footsteps and saw a man approaching her vision.
Dole's voice rang out, not the usual "good afternoon" of a few years ago, but a very distant "You're back."
She immediately replied, "I'm back." There was a bit of crying in his voice.
Then she realized that she hadn't opened the voice, and immediately changed the way of conversation with the shortcut key, and said again: "I'm back!" ”
Dore held out his hand to her and said, "I have left you a lot of fruit, do you want to go and see it?" ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, then tremblingly pressed the agree button and accepted the other party's request to hold hands.
The girl recorded her return video throughout the entire process, and she even edited a storyline that shuffled the order of the existing video material to tell the story of her first time in the game, leaving Dole, and returning again.
Later, with the help of other players, she received some more video materials, but when she left, Dole sent a mission to collect fruits for her and play the flute to recall her plot and dialogue.
The girl edited this part into the video as well.
It was from her that there was a return boom in infinite time and space, and more and more players began to return to the world where the target of the strategy was located, and began to pursue the initial touch. In the process, many people also recorded videos, and some people collected and integrated video clips, which touched countless players after they were released.
Although some people complain that other people's NPCs are infatuated, my NPCs have changed dozens of girlfriends, but at least most of the plot is touching.
But as time passed, there was one voice that began to grow stronger. Players began to complain about why NPCs couldn't cross the server with them.
In fact, this is definitely not possible, because different servers have different worldviews, some servers have strong NPCs, some servers have a large number of world-specific abilities, and some are themselves power or functional NPCs of the original world.
But the needs of the players cannot be ignored either.
So in the end, the solution that Xingzawa came up with was to allow players to download the personality number of the NPC that they had already completed. This personality number can only be used with an internet connection, but players can access instant messages through some small programs and interact with them through the programs that come with them on their computers or mobile phones.
Although there is a big difference in the interactive screen, the number of NPCs is the same as the original number of the online game, so the social response is the same.
The appearance of this feature solves most of the player's problems, and if you jump on the server, you can communicate and contact your own NPC remotely. Although you can't use the gift you receive directly, it doesn't affect social communication, which is the best of both worlds.
So as soon as the event information came out, everyone was excited.
At the time of the anniversary festival, the event was in full swing. Before half of the event, Lin Shu saw that Le Future's mobile phone had been installed with an external program, and it was connected to the NPC program that she had originally successfully attacked.
Lin Shu was surprised and said, "Aren't you busy with things in your class?" Where do you get so much time for activities? ”
As a result, Le Future glanced at him with a smile and said triumphantly: "Of course I'm asking for a booster." ”
Lin Shu: "......"
Well, he didn't say that.
However, in addition to avid game fans like Le Future, although there are many students in the first high school who play "Infinite Time and Space", as high school students, time is limited after all, and most of them do not have the ability, time and patience to tackle NPCs, let alone accumulate enough activity points in a short period of time.
In the first two years, there were still naïve children who hoped to get inside information or open a back door through Lin Shu, but unfortunately later I found out that this guy was simply not in the oil and salt, so this year, basically no one would take any shortcuts from Lin Shu, at most, they would discuss their game achievements with each other to relieve the pressure of learning.
Xingzawa's activities are in full swing, and Xinbai's research is also progressing. It took Liang Jiwen some time to finally find a way to directly stimulate nerve activity in the brain.
But this method is quite complicated and cumbersome because it involves acupuncture.
