Chapter 444: Ten Days of Maintenance
"Ten days later, the next one?" Jiang Ling looked at Shi Yi and asked very unexpectedly, "How can you maintain it for so long this time?" ”
"The competition is coming to an end, and there's a lot of content that needs to be updated." Shi Yi responded simply.
At this time, the two of them were in a hidden underground garage, that is, the garage where Shi Yi took Jiang Ling to test his physical function for the first time. Today, Shi Yi rushed to the door of Jiang Ling's house early in the morning and told him that he had already said hello to Fang Xinyuan, and Jiang Ling didn't have to go to work in the piano shop today, and then came here.
Jiang Ling had just done another physical function test, and now he was eating the breakfast he bought halfway through, and said: "I don't feel like there's anything to update, and besides, your words don't make sense, since it's nearing the end, there are only 300 people left, what tricks can you play?" ”
"I can't tell you the specific details, but I can remind you that this update and maintenance is to speed up the improvement of your players' strength." Shi Yi paused for a moment, looked at Jiang Ling's test results, and asked, "What do you think about this?" ”
Jiang Ling was not too surprised, thought for a moment and said: "It's reasonable, the battlefield of each game is assigned to an event that will happen or is happening in the game world, and now the world plot is progressing too fast, players have begun to come into contact with a small part of the top combat power in this world, our strength is indeed a little insufficient, if we don't accelerate the improvement of strength, it is too easy for players to die in the hands of NPCs after entering the battlefield in the future, so how can we compete." ”
Jiang Ling has always been resentful of the battlefield distribution system of this game, and the player's combat power in every battlefield is not the top, and he cannot rely on hard power to influence the development of the battle, and he must cooperate with the strategy to affect the direction of the plot. For example, when Jiang Ling was still in the ground, he would always encounter plot characters from the Heavenly Change Realm on battlefields such as Sennar and Qianfeng Town, so he could only follow the plot and cooperate with the plot characters to attack the battlefield, which tested the player's plot interpretation ability, resourcefulness level, and communication ability with the plot characters, and his own combat power was not the most critical factor.
I thought that when my strength improved, there would be fewer such situations, who knew that the level of the battlefield was getting higher and higher, and occasionally I would encounter Xuanji masters, but as the plot of the Divine Court began to deliberately deal with Skywalker unfolded, such situations would only become more and more.
Seeing that the appearance of peerless masters of the level of the Divine Court Commander in the battlefield has become commonplace, and most of the players are still in the Heavenly Change Realm, so the player's influence on the script will become less and less. Just like Jiang Ling, a character who has already been on the blacklist of the Divine Court, even if the plot is thoroughly understood, even if there are many schemes, the Divine Court Commander directly rushes over and throws the big move, it will only be melted in an instant. And judging from the current development, Jiang Ling guessed that it would not be too far from the Divine Court Master personally going out to quell the chaos, so what kind of competitive game would he play, and it would be almost the same as playing an escape game.
Compared with the local characters in the game world, the player's strength has improved by leaps and bounds, but the plot is developing too fast, and the player is not given time to develop at all.
It's like if you play a survival game, you pick up some rocks and sticks at the beginning, winter is coming, and the winter boss is directly refreshed.
When you play a certain 2D fighting game, you have just brushed through Sky City, and the task is for you to fight Luke's dungeon.
When playing a certain MOBA game, when the money on your body is just enough to buy a outfit and a pair of shoes, the big dragon refreshes, and rushes out of the dragon pit to start demolishing your tower.
Isn't it too exciting?
"Judging by the progress of the game, it is." Shi Yi muttered so.
Jiang Ling swallowed what was in his mouth, and said with a little complaint: "Why do you only think about it now, why do you eat this game planner?" ”
Shi Yi glared at Jiang Ling and said, "The amount of data in this game is too huge and the uncontrollability is too high, is that the responsibility of one person to plan?" ”
"It's true that the degree of freedom is a little higher, and the AI level of the plot characters is almost perfect, but when the battlefield is assigned, you should be able to foresee such a speed of plot progression." Jiang Ling took a sip of soy milk and said, "If you just want to improve the player's cultivation speed, that is, increase the rate of points acquisition, extend the time of the narrow room, and add some new medicine props for cultivation, these are all old routines, and they won't take ten days." I thought I was going to call back the world line directly, or just insert an expansion to slow down the main story of the world. ”
"I won't tell you more about the details." Shi Yi waved her hand to signal that the topic was over for the time being, and she asked instead: "After another round of elimination, tell me about your current situation." ”
"Not bad." Jiang Ling leaned back in his chair and said lightly: "No. 26 in the standings, as long as it doesn't happen one day when I have a terminal illness and burps halfway, basically I don't have to worry about the next knockout match." ”
Shi Yi glanced at him again, but he didn't say anything to hit him, but said: "It's indeed a good result, just speaking of Chinese players, you have already entered the top ten, but it also gives me a lot of expectations." But your goal isn't the next knockout match, it's the championship. ”
"Hmm." Jiang Ling nodded and said, "After all, your company is too picky, only the champion has a reward." ”
Shi Yi ignored his complaints, closed the test report in his hand, and said: "In terms of physical fitness, there is no major problem, and the physical fitness is far beyond most ordinary people, of course, this machine can't detect how much your terminal illness has deteriorated." ”
Jiang Ling smiled and said, "I will now participate in a city-level marathon or an amateur fighting competition, and I will probably be able to win a prize." ”
"In terms of martial arts, even in the professional division, there may not be many opponents for you." Shi Yi is more optimistic about his fighting level than Jiang Ling, after all, Jiang Ling can have today, and she can be regarded as "fighting" it herself.
"Thank you for your old cultivation." Jiang Ling complimented jokingly.
Shi Yi stood up and said: "In order to improve in a targeted manner, I decided to temporarily slow down the intensive training of your physical fitness and hand-to-hand combat, after all, hand-to-hand combat in the game is not what you are good at, and the things that Jiang Lao and Ji Ye taught you are enough for you." ”
"So what are we practicing?" Jiang Ling thought for a while, and said with a funny feeling: "Am I practicing spiritual arts or practicing ideas?" What to watch a superhero movie? ”
"First, continue to practice your piano, I have already told Sister Fang, the piano shop will be closed for rest in the past half month, and I will teach you to practice the piano."
Jiang Ling raised his eyebrows and said, "Such a bloody cost?" Have you stopped the business of the piano shop? ”
"Sister Fang was going to take care of Xiaoxin, and it won't be long before the mother and son will go abroad, didn't she say that she was going to open a store for you? Why, it's your own business? Shi Yi continued: "Sister Fang said that your piano skills have improved rapidly, but there is still a lot of room for improvement, now that there is this kind of international-level piano master to teach you, you should cherish it, and when Sister Fang goes abroad, I can't find such a powerful person again." ”
"Understood." Jiang Ling nodded, at present, his strongest combat method is still the psychic Zhou Yu to perform the piano technique, and at present, "Rain Falling on the Green Mountains" and "Jiang Zuofu" are quite proficient, and the score is more complicated
"Pre-Array" is a little reluctant to play the whole piece, and "Galaxy Scattering" is even more difficult, belonging to the kind of bullets that may not be able to be played smoothly according to the score.
The guqin is so easy to learn, on the one hand, Jiang Ling is diligent in practicing, and on the other hand, with the guidance of Fang Xinyuan and Zhou Yu, two piano masters, this is how to practice the piano skills to such a level in three months, which is almost catching up with the results of ordinary piano learners for one year.
"Second..."Shi Yi paused for a moment.
Jiang Ling looked at her with a bit of expectation in his eyes.
Shi Yi frowned slightly and said, "What do you mean by this kind of look?" ”
"Well, I think at this time, in order to keep the players in a good attitude, we should give the players a little encouragement and reward." Jiang Ling said solemnly.
Shi Yi nodded rarely: "The above does have this meaning, help you solve other difficulties in life, give you some sweetness, and let you play with peace of mind." ”
Jiang Ling was interested when he heard this, and asked, "What benefits?" ”
"But..."Shi Yi shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't think you need anything else, so you don't need it." ”
"Why don't you need it?" Jiang Ling said angrily: "Did the benefits given to me by the imperial army make you eat kickbacks!?" ”
"So, I'll apply to transfer Xiao Ke to you?" Shi Yi asked.
Jiang Ling pouted and said, "Forget it, you still let me concentrate on practicing the piano." ”
The corners of Shi Yi's mouth floated a little arc, and then said: "I will send a sum of money to your parents' account in a while, not too much, but a little more than the money in your current bank card." I know that half of your money is used for food, drink, and merry, and the other half is saved, presumably for your parents. But the job in the piano shop doesn't pay much, so you might as well keep the flowers for yourself. ”
Jiang Ling's face was a little complicated when he heard this, and then he smiled sincerely: "Thank you." ”
"Don't thank me, you fought for it yourself." Shi Yi paused for a moment and said, "In the past ten days, if you want to go home to see them, I can also arrange them for you." ”
Jiang Ling lowered his head and thought about it, then rubbed his cheeks with both hands, and smiled helplessly: "Forget it, I'll just call them later." Jiang Ling leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and said, "If I can really win the game, I'll go back and watch them." ”
Jiang Ling did not tell his parents about his terminal illness, so as not to add to his sadness. And Jiang Ling has indeed not been home for a long time.
Shi Yi glanced at him, and originally wanted to say that you have to work harder for your parents. But after thinking about it, Jiang Ling is not the kind of person who gives up easily, so he doesn't say this kind of nonsense that will only add pressure to people.
Shi Yi said: "Do you feel confident to win the next games? ”
Jiang Ling sighed and said: "Although the current ranking is high after all, it is only 26th after all, the stronger you are, the more you can clearly feel that the players in front of you are so powerful." ”
Shi Yi thought for a while and said: "Since the world is in chaos, the one called the Divine Court has started to attack the players, as long as you keep a low profile, don't attract their attention, and let the Divine Court deal with those powerful players, don't you have a chance?" ”
Jiang Ling scratched his head and said, "You said this a month late, and now the gods of the world are looking for me, whether I live or die, I will be killed if I am caught, and I will be a VIP-level death row prisoner." ”
"Damn." Shi Yi couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, rolled his eyes and said, "Then you can ask for more blessings." ”
