Chapter 7 The Basic Cultivation of Scrooge
Zhao Haiping's heart once again 10,000 grass and mud horses galloped past, but at this time, the red armor guards had already rushed over again to take him down.
He had no choice but to keep doing it, opened the box and took out the black jade unicorn, quickly groped for it, and pulled out the sword violently!
As a result, when he held it in his hand, he was stupid, and this so-called sword was not much longer than his hand, shorter than a dagger, and much narrower, not so much a sword as a large awl.
Fortunately, even such a "sword" still eats the bonus of the natural skill of "swordsmanship mastery", Zhao Haiping took a lot of effort to kill two people and injured six or seven people, and then he was hacked to death with a knife.
As for Emperor Yan Ling, Zhao Haiping wanted to directly throw the sword over and touch it for a prize, maybe what if a person's character broke out and killed with one blow?
As a result, in a blink of an eye, I found that the emperor had long since disappeared.
it!
Back to the beginning.
This time, Zhao Haiping didn't rush to see the new talent skills, but began to seriously think about how to clear this game.
Although the last time he killed two guards with the muscle memory instilled in him by the innate skill of "Sword Mastery", it also made him a little clearer: his current progress is still 108,000 miles away from clearing this dungeon.
"Nie Rang's physical fitness and swordsmanship mastery, this is the highest combat power I can have at the moment.
"Unless, I can draw a non-level golden skill with an explosive character, and it has to be a combat skill related to swordsmanship.
"This probability is too low, I don't know how many times I die to get it. What's more, at present, there are no non-level golden combat skills in the talent skill library of this dungeon.
"I can only consider the current combat power as the final combat power for clearing the level.
"However, in addition to combat effectiveness, there are too many problems that are difficult to solve.
"If I say that I am a wooden barrel now, even if I take the 'swordsmanship mastery', I will only barely reach the normal level of the barrel in terms of combat effectiveness. Everything else is a short ......"
Zhao Haiping summed up the reasons for this failure.
When he went to the palace, because he couldn't control his body and expression, he was too scared, which caused the suspicious Emperor Yan Ling to become suspicious.
Although he was in a hurry to fool around, Emperor Yan Ling no longer trusted him, so he asked the little eunuch to fetch the Moyu Qilin.
Zhao Haiping wanted to take the initiative to move forward and dedicate, but his words and deeds were contradictory, and he was recognized by the keen Emperor Yan Ling, which led to failure.
"That is to say, if I want to achieve the condition of being close, on the one hand, I have to be calm and calm throughout the whole process, and even just calm and calm is not enough, but also to behave harmlessly, so that the suspicious Emperor Yan Ling has initial trust in me; On the other hand, when I came up with the idea that I came up with, I had to choose the best time or think of some way to hide my true intentions......
"It's too hard!
"If I can take the other two natural skills 'Calm and Calm' and 'Mouth Like a River', there may be a possibility of success with the addition of the three natural skills.
"But the mechanics of the game are limited, and you can only take one talent skill.
"How's this going on?
"As a novice dungeon, it's simply unsolvable!"
Zhao Haiping frowned, a little suspicious of life.
There are too many action games he has played, and there are quite a few games that make him suffer. But at least in those games, he could still think of ways to improve after he suffered.
Whether it's repeatedly doing targeted operation exercises, or looking for some special items that will help you clear the level, at least there is an eyebrow.
But in this game, he doesn't have any ideas at all.
No matter how you look at it, it seems like an almost impossible goal.
"Do you mean...... This is why players are required to have excellent acting skills?? ”
Zhao Haiping suddenly thought of the requirements in the previous closed beta player recruitment announcement.
There is one point in particular: good acting skills, preferably at the actor level! Or if it matches the character, you can also act in your true colors.
Before, Zhao Haiping wondered, it's just a game, and it's not a movie, what do you want to act?
Now he understands that the NPCs in this game are not ordinary intelligence!
The NPCs of the other VR games stand there dumbfounded like stakes, only giving fixed dialogue options or making some simple intelligent answers, many times like artificial retardation.
But what about the NPCs in this game?
Zhao Haiping glanced up, and was directly dragged out and cut down.
Not only that, every subtle expression and movement of Zhao Haiping will be carefully observed by NPCs under a magnifying glass, and the slightest abnormality will immediately arouse vigilance.
This NPC has passed the Turing test and is properly stress-free, right?
Sure enough, this game company must have a great background, not only this 100% realism of virtual reality technology, but also such an unnatural artificial intelligence technology.
Invincible!
Thinking about it this way, acting skills are indeed very important in this game.
Because any behavior made by the player must be completely in line with the role he plays, and there must not be any "drama" performance.
When making a movie, if the actor's acting skills are not good, at most he will let the audience play, take a few scoldings, and affect the box office.
But in this game, all NPCs are spectators, and if the player's acting skills are not good, let the NPCs play, then there is only a dead end!
If you can't do it, you can't even get close to the emperor, so how can you talk about assassination and clearance?
"It's outrageous, now I'm convinced, this game is indeed 100% realistic, no compromise at all.
"The average player, it's really unbearable.
"Could it be that in order to play a game, I have to go to the apprenticeship to learn a performance?
"Forget it, try a few more times, if it doesn't work, quit first, and study the other three novice dungeons.
"Maybe professions like warriors and rangers don't need such high acting skills. The profession of assassin is still too high. ”
Zhao Haiping calmed down and started the game again.
In fact, if this is a regular and ordinary virtual reality game, this difficulty should properly dissuade the vast majority of players.
But this game is too technical!
Whether it's 100% realism or the super high intelligence of NPCs, it's the only one at present, and compared to it, those virtual reality games on the market at the moment are about 50% like playing at home, and they are completely unattractive.
Therefore, after Zhao Haiping adjusted his mentality, he was stimulated to challenge, and he plunged into it and began to try to clear the customs.
……
At this time, Meng Yuan was watching the performance of the players from the perspective of God with the little Lori Counselor.
Players only know that the probability of qualification for this closed beta is extremely low, but there is no specific concept of how low it is.
And the Meng principle is to be clear about these data.
So far, the number of people who have signed up for the beta test of "Dark Sand" has exceeded 100 million, and only 10,000 people can draw the beta qualification.
A real one in a million!
The number of applicants exceeded 100 million within Meng Yuan's expectations, after all, the exposure of this game is too high, the super recommendation of major top news and social networking sites, plus the reservation itself is free and there is no threshold, many players have ordered the reservation in line with the mentality of "playing three poles with dates without dates".
As for why there are only 10,000 people qualified for the closed beta, of course, there is a reason.
Dark Sands is not a game and has no server capacity limitations, but it is structured through the power of the Orderer.
The UI and a lot of game-like designs are just packaging to make players feel more confident that they're playing the game.
There are only a few people who can really bring Meng Yuan into the slice of history to complete the mission with him, because the more people, the more dispersed his power becomes.
Therefore, it is the best choice to choose two or three players who have strengths in all aspects to substitute for historical slices.
And now the reason why there is an closed beta test is mainly to screen the most talented players in this way.
Although it doesn't take much power to build a trial fantasy for each player, the current 10,000 people are basically at the limit. If you want to increase the number of people even further, you have to find a way to draw power from the history slice and further improve the ability of the Orderer.
As for the rules of screening and drawing, it mainly depends on the previous performance of these players in other virtual reality games and their profession in reality.
True hardcore players who have a large number of platinum trophies for action games and puzzle games in other VR games will have a better chance of qualifying.
In addition, people who are actors in real life, history buffs, athletes, martial artists and other special professions will also have a better chance of qualifying for the closed beta.
In fact, people with police, military, fire and other professions will also be very suitable, but their positions are too important, and Meng Yuan doesn't want to affect their daily work because of this game, so that without waiting for the demon invasion of historical slices, the world will be chaotic first.
The whole screening is of course done through the ability of the orderer, although there may be a certain deviation, but it is generally reliable.
This criterion is to hope to be able to select the most suitable person to enter the historical slice and help Meng Yuan complete the mission of the order.
Just judging by the situation of the players in Trials Mirage...... There is a slight gap from Meng Yuan's expectations.
So far, Zhao Haiping's performance has been the best, after all, he has also managed to kill two Red Armor guards.
The situation for others is even more dire.
Someone walked on the steps and rolled down directly because of excessive tension and leg cramps;
Someone was spotted in the main hall because of his unfavorable speech, and was dragged out and cut down;
There were also people who whimsically tried to snatch the weapons in the hands of the Red Armor Guard, but they were hacked to death by random knives before they could go to the temple.
The other three trial dungeons are in a similar situation, except that they die differently.
In short, the degree of misery is half a catty, and the miserable form is full of flowers.
There are very few people like Zhao Haiping who can persist in front of Emperor Yan Ling and think of rhetoric in the face of Emperor Yan Ling's questioning.
Meng Yuan also knew very well in his heart that in reality, a player like Zhao Haiping was already a top-notch quality.
But even so, they still haven't found any way to clear the customs.
Sanshang conjured up a meat bun in his hand and took a bite: "I'll just say you're wasting your time." Trials Illusion is used to screen the Order, and it's extremely difficult, so you shouldn't have too much hope for them.
"What's more, as a facilitator, they can gain at most one Order ability in the illusion, which greatly increases the difficulty."
Meng Yuan sighed lightly and asked rhetorically, "Then haven't you noticed that even if these players are so miserable, they are still better than me, the real order, in the Trials Illusion Realm?"
"At least most people have roughly guessed the mission goal of clearing the dungeon."
The merchant was speechless for a while: "...... You have a point. ”
In fact, Meng Yuan was also a little uncertain about whether these players could clear the customs.
Because the players entered as "helpers", it was equivalent to Meng Yuan assigning the abilities of the orderers to them.
The talent skill cards that players see are actually a special package of the orderer's abilities. If Meng Yuan entered the history slice by himself, he would be able to carry three at the beginning, and he could carry more later as his ability improved.
However, the player, as a facilitator, can only bring one at the moment.
This undoubtedly adds a lot to the difficulty of clearing the Trials dungeon.
Now Meng Yuan can only hope that the carefully selected players can rely on their outstanding talent and hard work to make up for this gap.
But on the bright side, players who can still stand out under this kind of difficult training are purely hard power, and they must be fierce!
Meng Yuan continued to watch patiently, looking forward to the players' performance.
As a guide, you can watch the actions of all players at the same time, and if you encounter a breakthrough in progress, you will show it to Meng Yuan, which is equivalent to an intelligent OB system.
At present, it seems that Zhao Haiping is the fastest player to enter the state, so Meng Yuan naturally took a few more looks.
