Just as Hao Yun was on his journey home, in the president's office of Yunmeng Games, Li Zongzheng was experiencing the trial version of Xuanyuan Sword Sky Trace on the newly bought computer.

The framework of the entire game has basically been made, and most of the characters and props have been modeled. Needless to say, in terms of plot, as the earliest completed part of the whole game, this part is also one of the places that Li Zongzheng is most satisfied with the whole work.

Its writing technique of opening and closing is quite the style of Shushan Mountain of the owner of the Pearl Building, and the understanding of the concept of Xianxia is quite charming.

In particular, the five artifacts of "Fuxiqin, Shennong Ding, Kongtong Yin, Kunlun Mirror, and Nuwa Stone" that run through the entire main line of the game depict a Xianxia world that integrates traditional Chinese mythology in front of him.

The only fly in the ointment is probably the ending.

Li Zongzheng has seen both endings, whether it is Xiaoxue or Yuer, they have made him uncomfortable for a while. He even asked Hao Yun if he could ask the landlord to add a happy "happyend" to this script, but all he got was a leisurely sigh.

He only hopes now that the big guy will never write the ending of "Shushan" as a tragedy.

Originally, it was uncomfortable enough for the day to become a weekly change, but in the end, there was a tragic ending, which was so special that it was cracking!

In addition to the plot, the most innovative thing about the whole game is probably the integration of SLG gameplay and RPG gameplay. Although they initially discussed presenting the whole story in the form of real-time action, it is easy to weaken the presence of the main story, and second, those gorgeous special effects are presented in a real-time calculation way, which may make the game's frame rate quite pitiful.

After thinking about it, they finally adopted the current set of gameplay.

That is, the "protagonist group" controlled by the player moves on the map from a side-per-side 3D perspective, and after triggering the battle, it seamlessly switches to turn-based warchess gameplay.

In layman's terms, you draw a grid on the map, and then use action points to complete a series of operations such as moving, using items, attacking, and casting spells.

For example, attacking with melee weapons such as knives, swords, and daggers costs 2 action points, attacking with heavy weapons such as axes, heavy swords, and halberds costs 3 action points, and switching to flying items such as bows, crossbows, and spells costs 4 action points. In addition, there are some area damage, buffs with buffs and debuffs, arson, icing, and so on with the help of special terrain......

In order to make this system more perfect, Li Zongzheng specially added the five-element system to the game. Through the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, players can adjust the order of skill release to deal tons of damage with the help of terrain......

Of course, on Advanced difficulty, the AI will do the same.

Operating Chen Jingqiu, who was dressed in cloth, Li Zongzheng tested the performance of various systems on the developer's map, and basically there were no major problems.

Although the upcoming Spring Festival stalls will definitely not be able to catch up, the spring promotion of the Qingming Festival can still be sought.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the office.

After Li Zongzheng said "please come in", Du Ziteng, the person in charge of the operation department, came over with a stack of blank papers.

"Mr. Li, the line draft of our Xuanyuan Sword series of four-panel comics has been made, take a look."

"I'll see."

After taking the line draft from Du Ziteng's hand, Li Zongzheng took it in his hand and roughly flipped through it, and nodded with satisfaction.

"It's a good drawing, but there's one thing I don't quite understand...... Why isn't the protagonist of the comic Chen Jingqiu? ”

Several line drawings were flipped down, and none of the protagonists appeared. However, the "big villains" Yu Wentuo and Lonely Ning Ke in the early and middle stages appeared frequently, which was a bit noisy.

As if guessing that Mr. Li would ask this question, Du Ziteng smiled confidently and continued.

"That's for sure, of course we can't take out the plot of the game and make it into a comic, so there will be no spoilers then?"

"I thought that the Trace of Heaven was telling the story of "Red Star", and the demon refining pot in the background board seemed to have a trick, so I discussed it with Jiang Lecheng, and set the story of the four-panel comic after the Trace of Heaven, Yuwen Tuo wore the soul of Princess Ning Ke and Fu Xiqin along the Silk Road all the way west, and finally brought the soul of Princess Ning Ke back to his hometown. ”

Hearing this idea, Li Zongzheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped his thigh and said.

"That's a good idea! While warming up the game, you can also complete the story background and world view of the game, I think it's OK! It's just that this amount of content should not be small, right? ”

"That's true," Du Ziteng smiled slightly, and continued, "According to our preliminary plan, the length of the entire comic will be between 400 and 600 chapters. It's not just a simple four-frame comic, if the game sells well and the comic drainage effect is good, we will consider making a 24-page single book to inject more plots into the entire IP. ”

Li Zongzheng touched his chin and nodded, saying in an agreeing tone.

"That sounds like a good idea, but who ...... To write it? ”

"This is also the biggest difficulty we are facing at the moment," Du Ziteng's face showed a helpless expression, "We need a script creator who has the ability to create, has ideas, and can control the direction of the entire plot as a whole to design the script for our comics." ”

There was a brief silence in the office.

It is not uncommon for people to meet the first two conditions, but it is rare to meet the first two conditions while still being able to control the plot direction of Xuanyuan Sword Sky as a whole.

Li Zongzheng first made two choices: outsourcing and rehiring.

This candidate must be born from the project team of Xuanyuan Sword Sky Scarf!

But the question is who to bother......

At this time, Liu Ye, who had two black circles under his eyes, walked in from outside the office with a stack of A4 papers in his hand.

"Mr. Li, I have completed the basic framework of the new product, and the original painting has been outsourced to a third-party art studio, so it should not be a big problem to see the qualifications of the other party."

"After discussing it with you last time, I went back and made some changes to the game's system, adding characters such as anti-thieves, traitors, loyal ministers, and lords, and the gameplay should be a little richer...... Here's a specific plan, so let's take a look at it if you have time. ”

"If you don't think it's a problem, I'll follow this plan and find someone to do it...... Strive for it, maybe you can catch up with the Spring Festival stalls next month. ”

Putting the plan on the desk, Liu Ye rubbed his sore eyebrows.

However, at this moment, he suddenly noticed that the two eyes fell on him almost at the same time.

Looking at Li Zongzheng and Du Ziteng who were staring at him, Liu Ye was slightly stunned and said hesitantly.

"Any questions?"

Is it because I didn't knock on the door just now?

That's not right.

Mr. Li shouldn't be such a small-bellied person.

"Lao Liu." Li Zongzheng looked serious, stood up from the office chair, and looked at him solemnly.

Being so uncomfortable by this look, Liu Ye took a step back and asked in a nervous whisper.

"What, what?"

"In our Yunmeng Games team, your ability in content creation is obvious to all."

"Thank you...... Mr. Li, if there is nothing else, then I will go back to work first. ”

There was always a bad premonition in his heart, and Liu Ye squeezed a smile out of his face while stepping back and planning to slip away.

However, before he could take two steps, a pair of heavy hands fell from his shoulders.

"Don't worry!"

Looking at him expectantly, Li Zongzheng continued in a earnest tone.

"Before I go back, I have an important task for you!"
