Chapter XXII

Friday, June 1, nine a.m.

Linhua University Songjiang Campus, Male Dormitory, Dormitory No. 4O9.

Qi Zhihao lay on his bed, clicked on the game login entrance on his mobile phone when he was fine, and soon received the message "The server cannot be connected temporarily, please connect later", and then he sighed and continued to toss and turn on the bed.

The announcement of the shutdown and maintenance of "Balranta World" has been put on the forum two days in advance from early this morning, and the maintenance time is from O o'clock in the morning to 12 noon, when "Balanta World" will enter official operation, and the expansion of the server group will also be completed.

Qi Zhihao had also seen this announcement, so he fully understood that it was futile to try to connect to the game now, and it was useless at all, but he still couldn't help but try to connect once after a while, and then sighed after seeing the message that the connection failed.

It's not that he doesn't like the start of charging for "Balranta World", in fact, only a little sanity knows that this process is unavoidable, and the charging scheme of "Balranta World" already takes care of the players, and even the monthly card, which is almost eliminated, has been taken out, and no one can justifiably say that "Balranta World" is a pit game.

And what makes him sigh now is another piece of news - after the official charge of "Baranta World", all the materials in the original beta phase will be deleted and zeroed, whether it is a player character or an NPC. He didn't care too much about the money and time he consumed, but he didn't care much about it in Balranta's World.

With his eyes wide open, Qi Zhihao looked at the ceiling in a daze, and after a while, he subconsciously picked up his mobile phone, ready to try it again.

At this moment, with a bang, the security door of the dormitory was pushed open, and a fat man ran in, it was Wei Dongcheng, the second child in the dormitory.

"Boss, come on, the sissies from the Foreign Language Academy are challenging again, and I have made an appointment to come to Montnets Cafe Bo5 (the game term, the abbreviation of Bestof5games, that is, the meaning of three wins in five games), the third and fourth are already there, you can go too."

"Forget it, I'm not going, you can go." Qi Zhihao responded weakly.

Wei Dongcheng was rummaging in his bed at this time, and soon found his mobile phone from under the pillow, and when he heard Qi Zhihao's answer, he turned his head to look at him, and asked very strangely, "Boss, what's wrong with you?" Yesterday's spirit was not good, and he said that he wanted to teach those sissies a lesson, why did he fall apart like bones today? I've only heard that women have aunts, but I haven't heard of men too! ”

"you." Qi Zhihao propped up his body and scolded back: "Your eldest aunt just came!" ”

"Are you still worried about the update of oB?" oB is the English abbreviation of "Balranta World", and obviously Wei Dongcheng sees Qi Zhihao's problem very clearly.

"yes, I feel a little sick to think that Bavria has just disappeared and never seen her again." Qi Zhihao sighed and said with some distress.

"I'm feeling a little sick too, but so what? Bavria is just an NPC, even if it is not eliminated today, it will disappear when the game reaches the end of its life, which is her fate. Wei Dongcheng said helplessly, and then found a chair and sat down, "Didn't we say goodbye to her yesterday?" The game is well maintained, and she will still save zài, but she just doesn't know us anymore. ”

Bafria is the martial arts instructor in the mercenary group formed by Qi Zhihao, a 4O9 dormitory four-person group in "Balanta World", and it was Qi Zhihao who finally completed a series of tasks to invite high-level NPCs. Because of the extremely high anthropomorphic process, Bafria is very real and almost indistinguishable, can communicate with Qi Zhihao and them without hindrance, curiously understand the world of these Advent (the Advent is the recognition of the player's identity instilled by the aI intelligence library in the NPC), train together, adventure together, and in the process, the lives of the two worlds have inherited a very special friendship.

In Qi Zhihao's eyes, Bafria is his friend, but suddenly one day, his friend will be "killed", but he can't do anything about it, so he naturally feels very uncomfortable in his heart.

"Bafria won't save zài." Qi Zhihao let out a long breath and climbed out of bed, "She is not an elite npnetpnetpc has a fixed character script, and the ordinary and special npnetpcs will still store zài, but the amnestics during the previous test will be deleted, and the following npcs will be randomly generated, do you think there will be such good luck just to give birth to another Baffria?" ”

"It's hard to say." Wei Dongcheng looked at Qi Zhihao very seriously, "I see that the forum is about to fall out now, and it's all for the NPC to be deleted." Do you remember? The original notice was for six hours of maintenance, but it was almost early yesterday morning that a new notice was issued saying that the maintenance time would be extended to 12 hours, and I guess the purpose was to solve the situation caused by the deletion of the NPC. I've heard from people in several groups who have a way to say that it's the mind realm that takes the opinions of players very seriously this time, and proposes a new correction, but they don't know the specifics, only that it may be an unprecedented solution. I think that with their skills and abilities in the field of thinking, they will definitely come up with a very good result, and it will be beyond our imagination if they don't do it well. ”

"Really?" Hearing the news, Qi Zhihao immediately came to his senses.

"It shouldn't be fake, there is a person in it that I know, that is, the senior brother in our department, and his cousin works in Huangyou, and the news he can get must be true."

"It would be great if it was true."

"So I said boss, you don't have to be too anxious, you will know the results in a few hours, I think this kind of game in the field of thinking can be made, they said it will be solved, then it will not be solved?"

"You're right." Qi Zhihao nodded heavily.

"Then let's go."

"What for?"

"Let's take advantage of this time to get rid of the group of sissies in the Foreign Language Academy, you're the main jungler, how can you do if you don't go?"

"That's right, let's go, let's go kill them!"

……

"Mr. Chen, is there a problem on your side?" Dong Hao stood aside, watching Chen Peng and a group of programmers busy, looking at the time, and couldn't help but ask.

"No problem, I will definitely be able to complete it before the start of the service." Chen Peng replied.

Seeing that the things at hand were almost completed, Chen Peng asked the other programmers to finish the finishing work, and he and Zhang He, Dong Hao, Yin Liting and others returned to the conference room, each made a cup of hot tea, sat down and chatted.

"Manager Dong, you don't have to worry, in fact, this added update has long been in our plan, but it should be several expansion versions later, and now it will be launched in advance, and there will be no technical problems." Zhang He, who had already communicated with Chen Peng, joked to Dong Hao while distributing cigarettes to everyone present: "You don't doubt the technical ability of our thinking field, right?" ”

"Mr. Zhang said with a smile, we fully believe in the technology in the field of thinking." Dong Hao took the cigarette handed by Zhang He, and complimented with a smile: "It's just that this update is too hasty, and the time is so short, I am worried that there will be some unnecessary mistakes, but seeing that Mr. Zhang and Mr. Chen are so confident, I know that these worries are unnecessary." ”

"In fact, our company was a little caught off guard by the fierce response of users, completely underestimating the users' devotion to "Balranta World", which is also a rare experience."

Chen Peng sighed with emotion, which resonated with the rest of the people present.

This incident was really unexpected by everyone.

The cause of the incident has to start from the announcement of the maintenance update content that came out three days ago on the forum.

According to the original plan agreed between the Thinking Domain and Huangyou, the time in the game during the testing phase is 137 years of Efilo Glorious Calendar, and the comparison between time and reality in the game is 4:1, which means that the test time of more than a month has passed less than half a year in the game. When it comes to the official operation, the time in the game will be adjusted to the 337 years of the Eiffelo glorious calendar, according to the background information provided by Chen Peng, this is the beginning of the most turbulent and turbulent years in the entire Balanta world, that is, 2oo years after the game time during the beta period, to strengthen the confrontation between different camps, so that users can enjoy more exciting and richer game content.

This is a good idea, and it has been unanimously endorsed by both companies, but one of the problems is that most of the NPCs during the beta period in the game will not survive to 2oo years later, so the original npnetpc must be replaced. This is not a difficult thing for the field of thinking, anyway, except for those famous NPCs, the rest are randomly created by the aI intelligent Kutong guò chaotic operation, but after this situation was released in the update content announcement, it immediately caused an extremely fierce reaction from players.

To put it simply, both companies are underestimating how much players are investing in this kind of high-aI game.

The beta period is only half a year in the game, and the real time is only a month, but many players have npnetpc in the game is no longer a program composed of a string of simple and cold characters, but a kind of life similar to a human being, and there are not a few people who have invested a lot of emotions like Qi Zhihao - this is one of the biggest selling points of "Balanta World".

Now suddenly tell the players that these NPCs are useless and have to be disposed of, and the players who can't accept it emotionally suddenly burst out.

After the announcement was released on the forum, the Balanta World Zone forum was quickly filled with protest posts from players, and also spread to the forums of other games under the Huangyou platform, which immediately attracted the attention of Huangyou.

And the next day, the storm intensified, and even some players who were more excited directly came to the location of the Huangyou company to come to the door to theorize, which scared the little girl at the front desk to cry.
