Chapter 20 The Designer of the Back Door
The task system of "Heroes Warriors" is very huge, in addition to the tasks that everyone can take on in the mercenary union, the plot released by the system NPC, random tasks, and the war tasks released by the city lords in the future, there are also professional tasks released in various professional unions, and you can get some experience, money, equipment, etc. after completing the task, but these are very ordinary rewards, and 10,000 tasks may not be able to produce the same superb equipment, so players do professional tasks mainly for a "contribution (dedication)".
After the contribution reaches a certain amount, some advanced tasks may be triggered, but in general, the reward is not proportional to the time paid, so players usually make up the dedication enough skills and job transfer needs, and will not do it again.
But this time, Liu Ren opened the task list in the temple and searched carefully.
After the official operation, the tasks are much richer, but they are all similar to the open beta, for example, during the open beta, players are asked to send a letter to Mr. A, and this time you are asked to send it to B, C, D, and E...... Mr. (madam), the task rewards should all be of the same level.
Due to the low level of devotion and rank, the temple still does not trust the player, so only the level 0 and level 1 quests are visible, in these quests, what can Liu Ren find?
"(Level 0 Quest) The stone candles used for temple lighting are almost exhausted, go find 10 copies, task reward: 15 copper coins, 1 dedication."
"(Level 1 Quest) On a night without moonlight, the temple is too dark, the stone candle is inconvenient and consumes a lot, you need glowstone to provide a little light, go find 1 glowstone, task reward: 30 copper coins, dedication 2."
It's such a garbage task, if it's a newcomer who doesn't have much money and IQ, he can do it, of course Liu Ren doesn't need it, Liu Ren just wants to find out everything related to "stone" in the Temple of Light, so as to prove the compatibility between "priest" and "quarryman".
Take the task and go to the grocery store, 1 stone candle 1 copper coin, 1 glowstone 20 copper coin.
Liu Ren looked at these two stones quietly, and then suddenly his heart moved, and he clicked on their "detailed description": "The first-order stone candle, maintaining the lighting time for 1 hour, and the brightness is 8, which is produced in the 'Candle Mountain' outside the city." "Rank 0 glowstone, it will emit a faint halo at night, with a brightness of 6, and it is said to be found by the river."
Very few people would care about the details of such low-level items, and even the Madman Studio didn't think to study them, but Liu Ren now looked at the origin indicated on the back of these two low-level items, and felt that his breathing began to accelerate, which was an intuitive reaction of Liu Ren before he discovered the secret of the game, and this feeling had never been wrong!
The vast majority of items do not deliberately show the place of origin, and since they are shown, there must be a reason for it.
After Liu Ren quickly delivered the task, he first ran to the "Candle Mountain" outside the city.
Candle Mountain is not close, ten minutes away, and there are still some dangerous monsters on the road, but Liu Ren still decided to take such a risk and sacrifice this time to confirm a game conjecture.
When Liu Ren stood on Candle Mountain and used the "Stone Chiseling" nine times, the system prompted: "You have obtained a Tier 2 Stone Candle, and you have gained 2 points of 'Stone Chiseling' experience." ”
When Liu Ren made a hundred shots, he could finally confirm that the probability of obtaining stones by using the "stone chiseling technique" here was significantly higher than that of the novice quarry, which could reach a stone yield of about 10%, and since it didn't take much effort to collect stone candles, his fatigue rose very slowly.
If Liu Ren is not mistaken, this is the system specially prepared for priest quarryers, here, aggressive players, quarrying basically will not get any additional advantages, but human priests who believe in light can get a higher rate of candle stones.
Of course, the price of candle stone is too low to be ridiculously low, only a fraction of ordinary stone, if it is a first-order candle stone, the selling system will not accept it, so in addition to practicing skills, it will not have much effect.
It seems that there are still a lot of secrets in the game, and a mage with the same low attack war, if he works as a quarryman, I am afraid that there will be a suitable location for him to practice, which needs to be explored by the player himself. However, after all, the priest and the quarryman have the highest compatibility, so the benefits will be much greater.
Now Liu Ren not only eliminated the unfavorable factors of attack power on him, but also had a faster cultivation speed than other quarrymen, however, candle stones, such as light stones, were destined to have no market, so Liu Ren eventually had to return to the ordinary quarry to work. Therefore, even if the priest's quarryman skill is one or two levels higher than others, the gap in attack still determines that they can only achieve ordinary achievements, and the game company still does a good job in terms of game balance.
Two hours later, Liu Ren took the stone chiseling technique to the next level, and then moved to a nearby small river, this time the stone chiseling technique did not respond, but when Liu Ren switched to the "mining technique", a miracle happened, and he obtained a Rank 1 glowstone.
It turns out that glowstone is classified as a mineral, Liu Ren immediately practiced here again, because he had been digging for more than two hours yesterday, so now in less than an hour, the mining technique has been upgraded.
In the process of quarrying and mining, Liu Ren also has a ridiculous discovery, that is, without using skills, he can also easily pick up glowstone and stone candles, and if the player has good eyesight, it is easy to find a target, so the final conclusion is that even if his skills are practiced to level 10, I am afraid that he is not as fast as a non-quarryman player.
Liu Ren really wanted to make a phone call and call Lou Xiaobo, this person is one of the core programmers of Shenyu Company, and only he, a guy with too much energy, has the leisure to write about the hidden setting of the priest mining the light system stone.
The programmer and the player are opposites in a sense, the programmer sets the puzzle and the player solves it, but if the problem is too difficult and too biased, no one can answer it, and it is also boring. But Lou Xiaobo likes to engage in this kind of weird back door and easter eggs, if it weren't for the existence of a game maniac like Liu Ren, I'm afraid 99% of his designs would not be discovered.
However, if it weren't for Liu Ren's madman studio, I'm afraid there would not be a perverted programmer like Lou Xiaobo in the game programming world, because Lou Xiaobo spent most of his spare time in high school in the madman studio - Lou Xiaobo was the first batch of members of "Madman......
Although there is such an insider, Liu Ren has never and never thought of getting any inside information from Lou Xiaobo, on the contrary, the two are still happy to have this kind of confrontation between proposition and problem solving, this is a pair of enemies and friends.
It is conceivable that there are many similar puzzles in the game, and the other two S-class combinations that the studio has figured out must also have special gameplay, in short, there will be no metamorphosis that obviously destroys the balance of the game in "Heroes of Heroes", and there will be no particularly garbage classes, everything depends on how the player plays the game.
Although with this new discovery, Liu Ren can become a superb quarryman, Liu Ren has not had time to experience it yet, as long as he can supply the production needs of several beauties, he will be satisfied, and the upgrading of farmers is still Liu Ren's first goal.
Return to the city and throw most of the glowstone and stone candles to the system, and store the rest in the warehouse to prepare to continue doing temple tasks tomorrow, in the setting of career tasks, players can only do one task per level per day, which is to prevent someone from brushing up on the dedication value, at this point, no one can take the trick.
At dinner time, Yang Lu had already returned from the infusion, she didn't see much tiredness on her face, she was still a gentle and amiable smile, as long as Liu Ren saw her, the fatigue of the day seemed to disappear in an instant.
Liu Ren quietly walked to Yang Lu's side: "Lulu, why don't you go to sleep in the room at night?" ”
Yang Lu smiled: "I'm the Minister of Logistics, you call me at night, and I can hear it at any time in the living room." Besides, several rooms have been arranged. ”
Liu Ren sighed: "Otherwise, I'll move the equipment to the living room at night, you go to my room to sleep, and I'll call you if there's something." ”
"You go to sleep in my room." Such a warm sentence made Yang Lu's face flush, but she also knew that Liu Ren didn't mean that, and was about to reply, but when she heard a loud voice, Liu Ren received a heavy punch on the head: "Bastard, dare to beat us Lulu's idea, I don't think you look like a good person!" ”
