45 Explanation - NPCs for All (Part I)
January 1, 2021, New Year's Day. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoNew Year's Day is actually quite an awkward place in the Celestial Empire, and it is far less cultural than the Spring Festival that spans the lunar year, and it is not taken seriously enough - in fact, for most people, the only meaning of this day is that it may give us a day off......
However, this year's New Year's Day was a little extraordinary.
Although the game "Gate of the World" only came to everyone's field of vision three days ago, its surprising publicity offensive - of course, inevitably due to the contribution of the water army, made the game instantly become the main topic of the major post bar forum communities, and then spread in reality - just like Ye Liangchen......
And, just yesterday, not only the Internet, but also the TV media, newspapers, and even magazines were full of advertisements and related information about the game "Worldgate", and even people who have never played games, even those who don't have mobile phones at all, are familiar with this upcoming mobile game.
Moreover, judging from the daunting cost of publicity and the amount of energy it requires, most of the "official support" it advertises is true-and the intensity of this "support" is not ordinarily large, to put it mildly, even if it is a son who is developing a game, it is impossible to have such exaggerated treatment. This kind of nonsense phenomenon has also caused a topic on the Internet again, and all kinds of gods have appeared to speculate.
"This situation is just like the kind of online game novels, 'making online games is the basic national policy of all countries in the world, and the people who are good at playing online games are the best people', the product of this kind of funny worldview ......"
The above sentence comes from the complaint of a certain god, although the statement has a strong forum atmosphere, but its conclusion is very close to the truth. The production of this game is indeed the main task of the recent work of the official departments......
In this context, even if this is just an ordinary stand-alone machine, it is bound to receive great attention, not to mention the name of "epoch-making innovative game"? So the biggest event on New Year's Day in 2021 is not the New Year's Day party or anything, but the game will be officially launched from this day. Whether it's really expectant, or waiting to see the joke, or wait-and-see, or just having a good time, there is a great deal of interest in this matter.
As a result, countless dead houses, middle school and second diseases, poor and boring egg painers, and big tyrants who eat and drink without worrying about life and love, are all watching the New Year's Day party of singing, dancing and telling two jokes as always, while waiting for the arrival of zero o'clock.
"Xiao Cang, don't be in a hurry to go offline today, you may receive an amazing number of tasks around here next. While most of the actual rewards like skill books are pitiful, it's always good to level up first. Lin Qing was lying on the sofa, on the coffee table next to him, an astonishing amount of bread, and empty packaging bags that had been opened, staggered and piled together.
Pale Yan sat on the other side staring at the TV, and replied without looking back, "You know again?" That's what the GM told you too? Is he going to change the minds of the people in your world to make them identify themselves as NPCs? β
"Hehe," Lin Qing threw aside the empty bag in his hand, and pulled out an unopened bag from the hill on the side, and after tearing it open, he said while eating, "Xiao Cang's imagination has also made great progress, I really don't know if that guy can really do such a thing." However, Xiao Cang, what do you think is the benefit of being indifferent to our lovely Demon Elder? β
"Reduce the realism of the game, make it possible to program the game process, and then cause this game to become a garbage game where local tyrant players can be invincible by swiping money, and then attract a few unlucky people who have nothing but money to spend a lot of money to brush up on their sense of existence, and finally turn losses into profits, take advantage of the trend, take the money and leave." Xiao Cang was still engrossed in staring at the TV screen......
Lin Qing's mouth opened slightly, his expression was quite surprised, and after being stunned for a few seconds, he jumped suddenly, stretched his hand under the sofa, and when he took it back, there was already a dueling plate on his arm - if you have a good memory, you may remember that this thing has the name "external MP supply device".
Lin Qing stood on the sofa like this, crossed the bread mountain in the middle with the knife in his hand and pointed directly at Xiao Cang, and shouted: "You are so smart, you are definitely not Xiao Cang!" Say, who the hell are you! Could it be that he stole Xiaocang's number! β
Xiao Cang didn't bird him at all, just rolled his eyes in reply and continued to watch his TV.
"Cut ......" Lin Qing fell as if he was in a hurry, and lay back on the sofa, and he didn't know where the things in his hand were, so he covered his face and muttered, "Hell, my behavior pattern seems to have been mastered by Xiao Cang...... 'If I don't respond, I'll be very unhappy', is this a conclusion that Xiao Cang can come up with?" Was it really taken away? β
Xiao Cang shrugged his shoulders again, his eyes never leaving the screen.
"What to do? Do you want to change your personality to play with him? Is there really no reaction at all......" Lin Qing muttered for a while, sighed, made a gesture of surrender, and then took another bag of bread, "Hell, good bread, what the hell is the 'orange flavor', can you eat such a thing?" Uh, what's that, Xiaocang, are you listening? β
Although Xiao Cang nodded, his preoccupied expression made it seem that he might just nod to the TV......
"Okay, the kind you said is indeed a very reasonable way to recover costs, and if you think about it, it may come from your painful experience playing games in the past, rather than the method you deduced and came up with yourself......" Lin Qing, who still couldn't get a response, was very unhappy, "But have you forgotten?" I said that our world is real, and Elder Days is not the operation of those garbage games, but can directly intervene in the high-level existence of the real world. β
Xiao Cang nodded again: "So money doesn't mean anything to him?" The only thing he knows to do in his favor is 'player increase' - and that's just what he 'tells' you, you're not sure, are you? Well, I can't guess, you tell me, why did I get the task? β
"......" Lin Qing sat up again, stared at his somewhat lifeless eyes, and looked at Xiao Cang, "I said-did your intelligence increase with your level?" Are you really the little cangist I was stunned with my mouth back then, and I didn't even see the other paths I could take, so I chose the 'best option' among the options I gave and became my pet? β
"You're talking more and more nonsense." Xiao Cang's response was very succinct.
"Hey, hmph, I see." Lin Qing suddenly raised his eyebrows, revealing a look of sudden realization, and then the corners of his mouth raised, and said to Xiao Cang with a trademark standardized smile, "Okay, let's be serious." Why did you get an incredible number of missions tonight? To put it simply, for some reason, from tonight onwards, many people will take the initiative to take on the responsibilities of NPCs with a 'fun' mentality. And -- for some reason, there are a lot of them around. β
"Oh?" Xiao Cang tilted his head, as if thinking for a moment, "Uh-I have two questions. β
"The answer to the first question is that although the 'certain reasons' that caused the large number of people around me cannot be said to have nothing to do with me, it is really not my doing. As the saying goes, 'rabbits don't eat the grass around the nest'. I don't really do it around when I'm doing experiments. Lin Qing snatched a white sentence.
"Uh...... Okay......" Xiao Cang didn't seem particularly surprised by Lin Qing's answer on the premise that he didn't ask questions, and his eyes were always on the TV screen, "Then, my second question-"
"Well, the 'for a certain reason' - look at this thing." As he spoke, Lin Qing took out a mobile phone out of nowhere and handed it to Xiao Cang, while looking at Xiao Cang's face with a smile, and when he saw the surprised expression on Xiao Cang's face for a moment, he nodded with satisfaction, and his smile became more evil.
"'World-World-of-Gate'?" Xiao Cang read out the name of the APP on Lin Qing's mobile phone screen word by word, then swallowed, adjusted his expression, looked at the TV again, and said in a pretending contemptuous tone, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the name of a game, right?" This name is really bold -- it is better to dare to blow it. β
"Oops, oops? I didn't say you should see that, did you? I mean, let you see the background image of my phone, does it fit the aesthetics of people in your other world? Because I suddenly remembered, since we are going to get along for a long time in the future, we have to make some compromises for each other's habits, right? It's like living in a dormitoryβ"
"Don't talk nonsense! I'll admit, the name of our game is 'Worldgate', so you're satisfied, right? Xiao Cang shouted as if deflated, "Okay, okay, you better tell me what this is for!" β
"Hah, that's right. It's obviously a little hair, how can you still learn to deceive people. Lin Qing smiled evilly and said, "Well, this thing is bound to an account with an ID number, and you can get quite a lot of cash income in it~ As for the content of the game, it is probably to put on headphones, find the player according to the instructions, and then release the task, well." β
ββ¦β¦ It sounds like something that can make the game flow easier. For non-professional players, this state will be more friendly. Xiao Cang made the above evaluation from the perspective and attitude of a professional.
"Mmmm, Xiaocang, you're really getting smarter~" Lin Qingwei nodded with a smile, then looked at Pale Yan, who was staring at the TV screen very intently, and suddenly said, "I think that blue dress is very beautiful." β
"Nonsense, it's obviously that red dress -, aren't you Lolicon!" Xiao Cang turned his head sharply, shocked.
"Hehe, since I heard that the world here is real, my eyes wander around when I walk on the street, and I sit in the room and stare at the TV, I thought you were shocked, and you were thinking seriously-" Lin Qing raised his head as he said, showing a very ghostly smile, "You don't plan to get rid of virgins in this world, right?" Pathetic! It's so pathetic, the pale flame of the pioneers! β
"it!" Xiao Cang's previous calm state finally couldn't be maintained, "What's so sad!" Since your world is real, aren't the girls in your world also real! What's wrong with me trying to find the right girl to get rid of being single! β
"Is that what you can conclude with your brain...... It's so sad. What does it mean that those instinctive, subconscious answers are more insightful than you when you are absent-minded just now? This shows that your thinking ability is not as good as relying on instinct beasts, Xiao Cang! Lin Qing said with a trembling smile and spread out his hands, "As for your belief that a 'game world' is actually real, your first reaction is that the girl here is also true, and this kind of thing is understandable." β
"......" The muscles on Xiao Cang's face trembled violently, his mouth opened several times, but finally closed again, and finally gave up arguing, rolled his eyes, and said in a broken jar, "Yes, I am an animal who can only think on the lower half of my body!" I've always been single since I was a child, and even the female friends are pitiful and empty, how can you understand that a scumbag like you who has been unrequited in love has a dull soul! β
"Don't you have a sister? How many people are dying of envy about this, boy. β
"I'm not a sister control, and I'm not a Lolita control! How could I have such perverted thoughts about blood relations or something! β
"Your lines seem to have seriously considered this matter, and finally forcibly suppressed themselves with reason......
"Don't talk nonsense! Kill you, oh soul! I'm going to kill you! Soul light! β
Seeing Xiao Cang's angry appearance, Lin Qing finally felt satisfied with his successful revenge, glanced at his mobile phone, and changed the topic: "Okay, in fact, I can understand that you are young and vigorous, so let's not talk about this aspect first." It's past midnight~ I'm really looking forward to it, let's try it out~"
"National NPC Project - something."
