Chapter.3 Good start
As the countdown of the system ended, all the players who were waiting for it went online one after another and entered the game world. Before entering the game, Xian Zimo glanced at the number of online users of "Emperor Century", and sure enough, it had already exceeded the official conservative estimate of "three million".
And that's not counting those who can't get the first slots, but it's true that the first slots aren't that easy to grab. Most of them have been allocated to players who have participated in the deletion test over the past few years, as well as those who have been following the game for a long time during the nine years of development.
Xian Zimo also caught the last train before and grabbed the last 100 places officially distributed. And what he was allocated from the studio was a third batch of places, which is normal treatment for a wage earner.
"Huh"
In a flash, Xian Zimo appeared in their novice village with other players who were online at the same time. Although there are a lot of players online at the same time, after entering the game, it is not as "crowded" as expected. After the reasonable arrangement of the system, there will not be more than 500 players in each novice village at the same time.
"Wow!"
"It's so realistic!"
"Hurry up and level up!"
As soon as you enter the game, you will be surrounded by different exclamations from the players. Indeed, the sensory impact of this game made with cutting-edge technology is unprecedented.
Seeing this, Xian Zimo was also secretly relieved, it seems that there is no problem with his vision, and this game is very promising. But then, he didn't act as impatiently as the other players. Before that, he has more important things to do......
'Please enter the player's name-'
'Hearts 12'
'Friend request has been sent, please wait. ’
Yes, the more important thing is to add friends...... After all, now he is not the freelancer of the past, he is a member of the studio, so he has to act according to the rules.
Twelve Hearts, at first glance, is a rather elegant name. But when you think about it, it's not like that at all. What is Twelve Hearts in Poker? Q, Queen, that's the Queen. As the team leader, it's really enough...... Man! Xian Zimo sighed secretly.
The friend was added successfully, and when he clicked on the language message that came immediately, You Shengnan's energetic voice came into his ears:
"Big-headed soldier, you really have the first batch of places! I thought you were playing tricks on me again! ”
"Why did the general say this? Forget it, let's talk about what you have to say offline, and you should hurry up and upgrade, boss. Xian Zimo replied simply, and was ready to add the next boss.
But the friends bar is ding-dong, and new news has arrived. "No, big head soldier, it's hard to get this place, you said, you said that you only paid attention to this game recently, so where did you get the place?"
It would be troublesome to answer this question, Xian Zimo pouted: "Boss, no matter how nonsense you go, let others snatch all the good tasks." ”
"Ahh Right, right! Let's get back to it, bye-bye! ”
What kind of brain is this? It's really fooling...... Shaking his head, Xian Zimo continued with what he was doing.
'Enter the player's name-'
'Three meals a day'
'Friend request has been sent, please wait. ’
Compared with You Shengnan, the ID of this boss is much more realistic, but no. Three meals a day, these may be the two things that ordinary people care about the most in their lives, two things? Yes, two things.
Soon, the friend request went through. Immediately afterwards, a rigid and stiff text message replied:
'Who is it?' ’
Xian Zimo then remembered that his ID was the first time he appeared in this studio. He typed back: 'Studio, newly earned employees. ’
'Which group?' The other party's reply was still brief, maybe he was already busy fighting junglers.
'7 groups. Indeed, there have been nearly thirty new employees in the studio recently, and that should be clarified.
'Oh. In the future, your task is to supply me with supplies, and I will contact you if you need anything. Don't go back now. A simple order, but between the lines is undisguised arrogance.
However, Xian Zimo, an Internet addicted teenager, didn't notice these things at all, and didn't let him go back? That's right, he was also in a hurry to rush the level.
But in fact, even if he sensed the other party's attitude, he wouldn't care too much. Internet addicted teenagers should be like this, they can play games - everything is fine.
Close the friends bar, and it's finally time to have fun!
The time in the game is the same as in reality, and it is also around 7 o'clock at night, and even the time of year is the same as the outside. However, it seems that because of the rain that has just fallen, the air is full of damp smells, and the evening breeze blows quite cool.
The reason why the player's spawn point has always been called the Novice Village is because there is a relatively clear main quest here to guide the player through the game. When you get out of the beginner's village, the degree of freedom of the game will increase by one or more heights, and that's when the player's ability is tested.
Main Quest: [New Ding Registration]
Difficulty: G (trivial)
Description: Find , the village chief of the > of Yajiao Village, <, and talk to him. Every great epic has such a similar beginning.
Base bonus: 5 XP
Xian Zimo didn't have any unusual ideas at the beginning of the game, so he clicked on the tasks on the virtual panel like other players. Then, the map is marked, and the location of the blue dot is the location of the village chief "Little Dog Tooth Abi" noted in the mission.
This novice village called Tooth Point is not very large, and it is only a few small roads to find the location of the blue dot on the map. The blonde youth who was surrounded by the players must be the village chief, so that the public NPC can meet the player from their own perspective if they want.
So even though almost all the players in this novice village chose to follow the main story, Xian Zimo didn't wait too long to talk to the village chief. "Young man, is there anything you want me to do?" The young village chief asked.
The next link is the point where this game makes Xian Zimo feel the most painful. This is an emerging setting in online games in recent years, and when talking to NPCs, it is not a perfunctory process that can be completed by clicking the left button of the virtual mouse.
Dialogue with NPCs needs to be completed by the player himself. The game will be able to answer the options available in the game, and of course the player can answer on their own, but if they talk gibberish or don't say the main point, it is likely that the story will not continue properly.
This is simply the most difficult point in the whole game for a "emotional intelligence idiot" like Xian Zimo, who is obsessed with the game and is not good at communicating with strangers.
He didn't know that such a setting was developed by a special department of the state in order to protect the majority of gamers and those who have been engaged in the game industry for a long time. Make sure that those guys who have played the game don't quit the game and don't even say a whole sentence after quitting the game.
Conversation Options:
"1. Hello Abi, nice to meet you. I'm here to be tested.
2. Hey! Tell me about that boring trial, Abi. I still have a lot of meaningful things to do! ”
Xian Zimo was still struggling with the matter of opening, and the village chief over there was waiting patiently. 'Grandma's, I didn't expect Lao Tzu's first time to give such a guy. Why don't you have a female NPC to receive you? In his hesitation, he found the name on the village chief's head, Betos.
It wasn't the written in the task and answer options, seeing this subtle difference, Xian Zimo no longer hesitated, and finally spoke after referring to the prompted dialogue: "Hello, Village Chief Bitos." I want to be tested. ”
' opinion +5'
Hearing his answer, the village chief's face suddenly bloomed, but he didn't see any "little dog teeth" in his smiling mouth. "Young man, why don't you say it earlier? In fact, I've been waiting for you for a long time, and looking at the ordinary people around me, I think they must not be as good as you! ”
Xian Zimo will not be complacent about such words, who knows if this NPC will also call him "ordinary man" to other players? This time, he still followed the only conversation prompt and said, "So where do I start?" ”
"It's up to you," the little dog tooth village chief spread his hands, "two tasks, the first is to deal with wild boars, and the second is to be relatively civilized and go to the wild to pick some serpentine fruits." You can choose one of them. ”
'Mission 1: Give Me Your Teeth'
'Mission 2: [Delicious Serpentine Fruit]'
'Please choose one of them. ’
Looking at the urging of the system, Xian Zimo didn't know which choice to make for a while. Although, he is a licensed player. However, each pro has a different focus, some of them just focus on missions and story exploration, while his strengths are in combat, control, and skill development.
In fact, this kind of task module for dealing with NPCs has always been one of his passes. What's more, now he is only given two tasks that only have names and no general content.
And at this time, the little dog tooth village chief spoke again: "For the sake of me from the bottom of my heart, I will add you the most difficult task that no one else has!" ”
That's a good thing! It's hard not to be afraid, I'm afraid to choose to come and go. "Thank you, village chief!" This time there was no need for prompting, Xian Zimo blurted out by himself.
"The third task is that after you're done dealing with the wild boars, collect some of my favorite ...... for me Uh, no, it's the much-needed serpentine fruit coming back from the village. You didn't hear anything just now. ”
"Damn, I thought it was some kind of special task, and the co-authorship was 1+2? Xian Zimo rolled his eyes secretly, but this is fine, at least there is no need to choose. In addition, he also understood the origin of this "Serpentine Fruit" task, which turned out to be just to satisfy the village chief's hunger...... But in this way, if it is only a single choice, maybe the person who chooses two will get a better benefit.
'[Xinding Registration] Completed, Assessment: Perfect'
'Quest Reward: 20 XP'
'Accept Main Quest 1: [Give Me Your Teeth]'
'Accept Main Quest 2: [Delicious Serpentine Fruit]'
"Come back early! Young man, I am optimistic about you! "It's coming, and the greedy village chief doesn't forget to instruct.
In his passing subjects, he actually got a perfect evaluation and won two tasks at once. As a result, the experience bar has increased by half in an instant! This shouldn't be something everyone can do, okay, a good start!
