Chapter 261: Officially Launched (Second Update)
Allen, a high school student whose home is in Boston, has been in a good mood this year. His grades are almost certain that he will be able to apply to a good university, and his professors have promised to write him letters of recommendation.
In reward for him, his father offered to give him a trip that would give him the option to travel to Hawaii or somewhere in Europe.
He studied with great interest how he was going to spend the money for the trip, but recently he changed his mind.
On the subway, he saw a game from China called Taiwu Picture Scroll. The rivers and rivers on the picture attracted his attention.
Of course, it was just a little bit of interest at first. However, it is precisely because of this interest that he has found a lot of information about this work through the Internet.
For example, the opening animation that is very popular on YouTube, such as the part of E3 Entertainment at the press conference......
He became intrigued by the world that he had never understood before.
Also interested are several of his classmates.
His classmates met to play this game together, and he was also itchy, thought about it for a few days, and decided to join his classmates.
Of course, I have to say that it is also possible that the game's cool graphics impressed him.
"Didn't you say you wanted to go to Norway or Iceland? Why didn't you go again? His father was puzzled by this.
"I've recently become interested in a Chinese game called Taigo Picture Scroll, and I want to focus on that in the near future."
His father was even more puzzled, and even felt that his son was crazy for a while.
"It's a Chinese game, and I've seen his trailer, and this company has incorporated a lot of the best of China's more than 9 million square kilometers into this game world. I don't think I'll be able to walk through that huge and ancient country in a week, but I might be able to appreciate the beauty of that country and its wisdom through this game. ”
This is the rhetoric he has long thought of.
“…… All right. His father was convinced, "You're almost an adult, and I won't interfere with how you use your money and your time, but as a father, I hope you won't regret making such a choice." ”
With that, Alan's father walked out the door.
Sitting in his room, Alan calmed down and recalled his father's words.
It is true that he took a particularly big interest in the game, much like playing, but ...... This is a game after all, and it hasn't been released yet, even if the quality of this game is very good through the evaluations of all parties, but even if it's a 90% possibility, isn't there still a possibility that it is too famous?
What's more, even if it's a good game, it may not be 100% to your taste.
Is it really right to give up a chance to travel for the sake of it?
Thinking of this, he regretted it a little.
However, the words had already been spoken, and he didn't want to tell his father that he regretted it.
Sitting at his desk for a while, he took out his mobile phone and called his classmates:
"Hey, Bane, go buy the game tomorrow, don't forget to call me."
"Don't worry, you won't forget."
……
The next day, at nine o'clock in the morning, Alan and his four classmates went to the video game store and told the clerk that they wanted to buy "Taiwu Picture Scroll 2", but they were told that it was sold out.
"Why do so many people buy it?" Bane, a big fat man with a red face and at least two hundred pounds up, was dumbfounded.
"It's all your fault, Bane, who made you wake up so late?" Someone is blaming him.
"It's only nine o'clock! Usually on holidays, I sleep until at least 12 o'clock before I get up! Bane craned his neck in protest, "And, isn't that a Chinese-themed game?" Shouldn't it be a niche style? Why was it sold out so quickly? ”
"If we had come here at half-past eight according to our original plan, we would have still had the goods! It's all your fault, Bane! The man continued to blame.
"Alright." Alan said, "If you can't buy it, forget it, go back and buy the digital version online, you can also play." ”
"No!" Bain denied, "The physical version will come with a hand card, it's a good collectible, I don't want to buy any digital version, I'm going to go to a few more stores, which of you will go with me?" ”
No one wanted to go with him, not even Alan.
"You people!" Bane pointed at them angrily, and finally said, "Then I'm not going either!" ”
And they parted and returned to their homes.
Alan turned on his console, bought the game, and started waiting to download it.
The network speed of his house is not bad.,It's just that the volume of this game is really not small.,More than 60 G.,It's going to take some time to download it.。
The waiting time is long, and the books that I usually read with relish can't stand anymore, and all I think about is the game that is about to finish downloading.
Finally after the download was completed, he picked up his phone and took a picture of the screen, sent a message to Ince, and then couldn't wait to enter the game.
After watching the opening animation and loading the game, he spent a little time pinching his face, and made a knight who he felt particularly handsome - he made it according to his impression of the swordsman in the opening animation of the game.
He chose his birthplace as 'Gyeonggi' for no other reason than the Shaolin Temple.
Although he is an American, he doesn't know much about China to be honest, but 'Shaolin Kung Fu', he has heard of it.
After a rather tutorial-like opening scene, Alan has almost learned the basic operations of the game.
The main line of the game is to reforge the 'Fuyu Sword'. The fragments of the sword, divided into nine pieces, were scattered throughout this world. At present, the known one is in a 'sword mound' not far from Taiwu Village, and the whereabouts of the other eight pieces are unknown.
Other than that, there is no other main quest in the game.
According to the plan, players will receive a little 'refinement' reward for every time they collect a fragment of Fuyu. The so-called refinement is about equivalent to the cultivation realm, and those with low refinement will receive all the damage and all attribute confrontations when they fight against those who are high in refinement, and their own attack effect will also be reduced.
After Allen practiced the initial few exercises, such as 'Taizu Long Fist', 'Small Vertical Leap Skill', and 'Pei Ran Duel', he tried to challenge the sword mound next to him.
Undoubtedly, this game gave him his first lesson - when he first entered the sword shrine, in the underground labyrinth, he met a demon for the first time, and beat him to the ground.
Fortunately, he practiced the 'Little Leap Gong' well in advance, and finally escaped.
After learning from the pain, he didn't have the heart to play any village construction, so he couldn't wait to pack his bags, left Taiwu Village, went to Shaolin Temple, became a lay child, and prepared to learn art.
