Chapter 8: The Initial Change (2)
Yu Luochen's footsteps stopped abruptly, and he turned his head to look at the old man with surprised eyes, because he remembered...... The dialogue that the old man just said didn't exist at all in the original end game.
Could it be that this old man just said a new dialogue after the Enlightenment? Or did he trigger some hidden plot? But he remembered that there should be nothing hidden in this old man.
Staring intently at the old man in front of him, Yu Luochen felt a little weird more and more, as if the old man's face was no longer that mechanical and dull expression, but as if he had been given life.
Right! That's right, it's the expression! Yu Luochen remembered that the expressions of the NPCs in the terminal game were very stiff, but now ...... The old man in front of him looked at him with some amusement.
That vivid expression frightened Yu Luochen, but before he could think about it, the little old man continued to speak: "I see that you look around as soon as you enter the village, you must be a newcomer who has just entered the secret realm." ”
He laughed twice: "Old man, I kindly remind you that the world you see now is no longer the real world you were in a moment ago, nor is it the virtual world before your enlightenment. ”
Yu Luochen gasped, couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and blurted out: "How do you know, what do you know?" Tell me! ”
Feeling that his heart was trembling slightly, and at the same time questioning himself in his heart, how could this be possible, Yu Luochen couldn't believe that these words were spoken by an NPC.
"The young man is just impetuous," the old man smiled with satisfaction when he saw the frightened look on his face, "what do you ask me to know?" Then you have to tell me first, what do you want to know? ”
Being asked by the old man suddenly, Yu Luochen couldn't help but be in a trance, and was a little frightened by the sudden change of this NPC old man, and his brain was a mess.
What did he want to know?
Want to know why you died? Although he has now accepted the fact of his death, he still doesn't know why he died.
From the message of the Seal of Garan and the dialogue with the previous girl, I learned that he was murdered by the death game "The Secret Realm of Reincarnation", but why did this death game choose himself?
Was it because he clicked on the "Enlightenment" option? So who set this option, who is going to kidnap the soul of the gamer, and why is he doing it......
For a while, countless questions came to mind.
"Young man, have you thought of what to ask?" The old man urged him on the side, "The old man reminds you, what I know is only what I should know, if it is out of my scope, the old man will not be able to answer." ”
What he knows is only what he should know?
It seems that he should also be subject to some kind of restriction, just like the girl who took in, when she asked some sensitive questions, she would deliberately avoid them.
This is seen a lot in the game, each NPC will only tell him what he knows, and the rest needs to be explored by the player himself.
It must be the same now, although now Yu Luochen doesn't regard this old man as a simple NPC in his heart.
"You just said that this is no longer the real world I am in, nor is it the original virtual world, so what kind of world is this?" Following the old man's words just now, Yu Luochen raised such a question.
Although it is said that through the seal of Garan, he has a general understanding of the general setting of this reincarnation secret realm, but the NPC must have a reason for saying this.
The old man was stunned for a moment after hearing Yu Luochen's question, and then laughed heartily: "Hahaha, you kid is good, that's right, this is what I know......"
He retracted his previous playful expression, presumably agreeing with Yu Luochen's question, and then he put on an unfathomable smile and said to him: "I'm telling you, this is a world where the ban is completely lifted. ”
"A completely unbanned world?"
"That's right, completely lifted," he said as he noticed Yu Luochen's reaction, "In this world, you can do whatever you want." ”
"Do whatever you want?" Yu Luochen repeated the old man's words.
According to his previous understanding of the game "Reincarnation Secret World", the setting of the game's world view should be some overhead era of gods and demons.
Although in that era was full of strife and war, it was far from what the old man said he could do whatever he wanted.
"The Secret Realm of Reincarnation" is a game, so he must be in a game framework, even if his background is overhead, it is also within a certain environmental definition.
"It doesn't exist, such a world," Yu Luochen was not confused by the old man's words, but said with a deep groan: "According to the description of the information in the 'Garan Seal', it is obvious that this world has its own environmental boundaries such as social expectations and power ranges. ”
"After all, it is set according to "The Secret Realm of Reincarnation", not to mention anything else, first of all, the setting of the nine characters determines that this world has different political systems and factional struggles."
The little old man seemed a little surprised when he heard Yu Luochen's analysis, and then smiled silently: "You can actually consider these aspects so calmly, it seems that you are still different from those mediocre people who came in before." ”
"You're right, the secret realm of reincarnation did have its own social order and the beliefs of the characters," his smile gradually froze, "until one day, he became incomplete, and became incomplete......
"Crippled? Is there a bug in the game world? With the information that Yu Luochen has obtained now, the only thing he can imagine is the game bug.
However, the little old man sighed, a trace of pain appeared in his eyes, and he groaned slightly: "According to what you say now, it can be regarded as a game bug, but it is just ......"
"Just what?"
"Well, forget it, it's useless to say that......"
The little old man wanted to speak and stopped, which made Yu Luochen a little disappointed. Yu Luochen wanted to continue to ask, but thinking of the limitations of NPCs, it is estimated that the old man will refuse to answer on the grounds of "this is not what I know".
So, Yu Luochen changed the topic.
"Why are you telling me this?"
"That's the purpose of the old man's appearance, and even if I don't tell you, others will tell you," the old man pointed to the other NPCs in the village, "We just don't want to see you die inexplicably before you have time to wander through the secret realm."
He paused slightly, and the expression in his old eyes was complicated: "For the secret realm, you are very important, if you disappear as soon as you enter, it will be too wasteful, you must know that there are dangers everywhere in this world......"
