As a stand-alone game enthusiast, Yue Qiang's mentality of playing games is somewhat different from that of ordinary entertaining players, and this difference is reflected in the seriousness of playing games. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He will learn about the novelty of new games from various channels that he can get his hands on, such as manuals, game websites, forums, etc. But the game he is playing now, due to its strange installation and access methods, the traditional way of knowing the game information is almost useless. The previous post he made on the single-player game forum was just a try-and-see mentality, and he didn't expect too much.

The way to understand the game, now it seems that the only way to understand the game is through the plot of the game itself, to be specific, it is to infer through the dialogue with the NPC, and the system interface. This raises the question:

There is a serious shortage of sources of information.

How to fix it?

Through this period of understanding, Yue Qiang discovered. The NPC design of this game is very intelligent, for example, Chen Zihan will give the basic chapter of "Ghost Valley Arithmetic" after many dialogues, and the dialogue with blacksmith Tan Xiong is carried out through system prompts in the form of eyes, and even the dialogue with a boss who sells ice will appear in the option box.

Yue Qiang also noticed that this beautiful ice seller had a rather interesting surname - Gong Yi. You must know that the surname Gongyi produced a very famous character called Gongyi Ban during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which is what later generations called Luban, the carpenter ancestor. And the character of Lu Ban is regarded as the originator of organ journalism in many games.

He suspects that every character he has come into contact with so far is a "plot character".

And the interaction with the characters, in this game that seems to be very suspicious at the moment, it is hard to imagine that the pre-set dialogue mode will still be used.

Click on the avatar - talk to the NPC - the protagonist says a word - the NPC says a word - gives a task - completes the task - the NPC gives a reward.

Is this kind of traditional single-player RPG game process really reasonable here? Will there be a hidden, further way of communicating?

Combined with Yue Qiang's intention to urgently understand the game information, the solution should be in the dialogue mode with the NPC.

That said, there must be some mode to turn on.

The method of opening is also hinted at by the system before. That is: not following the normal process, or rather, completing the hidden little plots.

So, how can you not follow the normal process? When Yue Qiang first interacted with Mr. Chen Zihan, he subconsciously used the item "a chair" and placed it behind Mr. Chen Zihan's buttocks, which indirectly led to the opening of the hidden dialogue in the back. So when facing the second NPC in contact, blacksmith Tan Xiong, he consciously observed the state of blacksmith Tan Xiong.

This state is not attribute points and skills, but the "sweaty" attribute that the game gives him through images.

Just like the "arrogant" attribute of Mr. Chen Zihan, a teacher, he needs Yue Qiang to give him a chair to satisfy his vanity. Blacksmith Tan Xiong's "sweaty" attribute is likely to be hinted at by the system, and he can win favorability by helping blacksmith solve the problem of "hot weather and sweaty".

What's more, it must be a hidden task. No matter how trivial this task may seem, it is a "hidden mission". Yue Qiang profoundly knew that the hidden rewards of hidden tasks would never be so simple.

So, when he saw the somewhat unexpected system prompt of "dialogue system on", he finally felt a little sense of accomplishment.

To play this game, you still have to go a little bit with your brain.

Don't rush to talk to blacksmith Tan Xiong, let's take a look at how this "dialogue system" should be used.

A simple search of the system interface reveals no further hints about the "dialogue system". Yue Qiang thought about it, could it be ......

He tentatively clicked on the blacksmith Tan Xiong, and a dialog box came up.

Then, the dialog box is empty.

Then, there's a cursor in the dialog box.

Seeing this, Yue Qiang finally determined that his conjecture was correct. This so-called "dialogue system" is that you can freely type and talk to NPCs.

The significance of this system is extremely significant. Because, if you have enough favorability, you can learn a lot about the game world by asking questions just through one NPC.

What's more, this free-form way of typing allows you to use real-world conversation skills!

No matter how weird this game is, it's just a game after all, and no matter how smart an NPC is, it's still an NPC.

Thinking of this, Yue Qiang typed in the dialog box: "I see that Brother Tan Xiong is strong, strong, broad-waisted, round-minded, restrained and subtle, and the kid admires him for a long time, and he admires it very much."

Yue Qiang thought while typing: If you don't want money, send it first, and see how the NPC answers.

Blacksmith Tan Xiong snorted coldly: "There is something to say, and there is a lot of." ”

Yue Qiang slapped NPC's ass and touched his nose, but he was not discouraged, and continued to type: "The kid wants to follow Brother Tan Xiong to learn skills, I wonder if the eldest brother can appreciate it?" ”

After finishing the sentence, Yue Qiang felt that it was inappropriate again, and changed the word "skill" to "body forging method", and then hit the enter key and sent it out.

He was making up sentences and considering the language of the conversation with NPCs, while feeling the benefits of this dialogue system.

Originally, I had to rack my brains to find a way to trigger the hidden quest to learn the skills of the blacksmith, but now that I have saved all this effort. As long as you are careful when typing, you can learn skills, maybe combat skills, and maybe you don't have to pay any price. This dialogue system saves a lot of time and energy.

After Yue Qiang finished typing that line, he waited for the other party to reply. I saw the blacksmith Tan Xiong snort coldly and said: "The country is about to die, and the son just thought of going into battle to kill the enemy, isn't it too late?" ”

Yue Qiang typed: "It's never too late to sacrifice your life for the country." ”

Blacksmith Tan Xiong snorted coldly: "Your physical fitness is too poor, I'm afraid that you won't be able to learn a certain family's forging method." ”

When Yue Qiang saw this NPC say this, he became excited. After being in the game for so long, this is the first time that I have discussed skill issues with NPCs head-on, and although it is a vague word like "forging the body", the meaning is similar.

Yue Qiang typed: "Then may I ask Brother Tan, how many attribute values do you have to achieve, oh no, what kind of physical fitness do you have to achieve in order to learn combat skills?" ”

"Even you, a frail and sickly person, also want to learn combat skills? It's really a lazy toad that wants to eat swan meat. ”

Yue Qiang was helpless, even a blacksmith from a novice village dared to laugh at himself so continuously. Either your charm value is not high enough, or the difficulty of this game is really perverted. Now that the system indicates that the charm value has reached the threshold limit, there is no doubt that the latter is very likely. Thinking of this, he began to sum it up, this game is so realistically made, I am afraid that all kinds of skills will not be too far beyond the scope of the real world, why not take a look at the specific strength of this blacksmith Tan Xiong, who seems to have some origins?

Thinking of this, Yue Qiang typed: "I wonder if Brother Tan can show his hands to the kid?" ”

Blacksmith Tan Xiong said, "You want to know my strength? Yes. ”

I saw that his muscular arm picked up the hammer, but he didn't start to dance any moves, but threw it lightly, and the huge hammer flew towards Yue Qiang, falling heavily at his feet. As the hammer smashed on the ground, Yue Qiang's computer screen shook slightly, and a cloud of dust rose, obscuring Yue Qiang's vision.

Good horror weight.

"You try my hammer first." Tan Xiong said.

Yue Qiang manipulated the figure to bend down and try to pick up the hammer.

System Prompt: You don't have enough strength to lift the hammer.

And so it was. Before he could type anything in response, he saw the burly blacksmith pick up the hammer with great dexterity, and with his other hand he picked up a piece of red-hot iron from the boiler and struck it. In less than a minute, Yue Qiang looked at the piece of iron, which was still a little red, and found that the piece of iron had turned into a delicate iron flower.

Lifelike.

If you ignore colors and materials, it's like growing naturally. Yue Qiang deliberately turned the mouse wheel to zoom in and watch, and the iron flower under high resolution was still very perfect, and he couldn't find any flaws.

Yue Qiang probably had an estimate in his heart, this blacksmith Tan Xiong, I am afraid that in addition to the strong strength points, there must be a skill similar to the "precise" attribute, and the attribute value must not be low.

"I don't know how long it will take for the kid to practice to the attribute value of Brother Tan, oh no, with such strength and control? Is there a quick fix? ”

When Tan Xiong saw Yue Qiang talking like this, he immediately made an angry look: "How can you learn the way of martial arts?" Without ten or eight years of hard work, don't even think about it! ”

Then he said: "What's more, in three months, our country will perish, even if you can practice to my level in three months, what's the point?" ”

The burly strong man Tan Xiong seemed to have thousands of words in his chest that did not vomit or be unhappy: "Iron hammer embroidery is just a small effort, do you know what my housekeeping skills are?" ”

Tan Xiong said as he lifted the tube of his left sleeve.

Yue Qiang hurriedly adjusted the resolution and watched carefully. I didn't pay much attention to the distance just now, but now I look closely, the left arm of blacksmith Tan Xiong is actually made of wood! Its texture is extremely delicate, and it has a variety of joints, and it is not inferior to the human arm when moving. Now that he thinks about it, he just picked up the red-hot iron block with his bare hands, and used this wooden prosthetic leg.

"The most powerful weapon in my body is actually this wooden prosthetic. This was made for me by the loser's chick after being abolished on the battlefield that year. Through this prosthetic, my actual combat ability has been further increased, and I am faintly standing above the limits of ordinary people. ”

"But so what?" Blacksmith Tan Xiong's tone seemed to be reminding of countless sad pasts, "Even so, it's still vulnerable!" Hey, in three months, the country will not be a country, and there is no point in talking about this. Childe should be your reader, and enjoy the blessings for another three months. ”

After Tan Xiong finished speaking, he seemed to have infinite emotion, and he no longer struck iron, but went back to the house and locked the door.

Yue Qiang didn't expect that as soon as this "dialogue system" was opened, he would get so much information from blacksmith Tan Xiong.

The blacksmith was not standing still after saying this, and it can be immediately deduced that this inability to continue the dialogue usually means that the main story has been created in a single-player game.

According to the message revealed in the dialogue, "in three months, the country will not be a country" is likely to refer to the fact that the village is about to face a major crisis. With the strength of the blacksmith Tan Xiong, and even the advanced strength after the prosthetic leg created for him by the male loser's chick, there is no possibility of defense at all.

The enemy doesn't know who it is, but judging from his description, "vulnerable to a blow" shows that the enemy's strength is still above Tan Xiong.

At the same time, he also noticed a key point. That's how the game's stats increase:

How can you learn the way of martial arts quickly?

Without ten or eight years of hard work, don't even think about it!

If it was an ordinary game, Yue Qiang would never take these two sentences in his eyes, because I am afraid that if I look for it casually, there may be NPCs who will send peerless exercises to the hands of players. But judging by the realism of this game, and how painful it is to complete the first two hidden missions. Learning martial arts, that is, increasing attributes, is probably really going to take an extremely long time. At least in the three months he mentioned, there was no way to improve quickly.

What to do?

Is this really a game that can't be upgraded?

Yue Qiang was not discouraged. Blacksmith Tan Xiong has returned to the blacksmith shop and locked the door, in a state where he can't talk. He began to wander around the small village, typing very carefully and talking to the NPCs in the village. He didn't dare to take it lightly when using the dialogue system, and his typing attitude was a little restrained and even a little flattering.

Just kidding, the game is so realistic, who knows if these NPCs are just pieces of code behind them, or something else that can't be understood?

Slipped around and around, chatting discreetly with more than twenty NPCs in the village. Yue Qiang found that these NPCs, without exception, spoke in a rather pessimistic tone, and seemed to have an attitude of "doing their best to obey the destiny of heaven" about something three months later.

It seems that the imminent destruction of this village is the main plot. So, changing the plot and saving the village will be a very obvious hidden mission?

Also, how can this game be upgraded?

Yue Qiang cares about the way of upgrading in the game, not only to clear the game and do tasks, but also because he remembers the 8 points of free allocation of attribute points in the character creation interface, and a series of changes brought about by the 8 attribute points.

Leveling up, in almost all games, means an all-round increase in attributes. And the increase in attributes in this game, there is such an additional layer of realistic meaning.

Yue Qiang manipulated his character back into the house at the beginning of the game, thinking carefully.

Suddenly, an idea occurred to him.

"If I'm right, the upgrades in this game may need to be implemented outside the game." Yue Qiang muttered to himself.
