Chapter 34: No Regrets
When he said this, Chu Ge was ready for the failure of the copy.
Because his words did mean to vent the emperor's anger.
To be honest, since the opening of this scribe dungeon, Chu Ge, as a player, has really held back his anger.
I am a loyal minister, seeing that the powerful ministers are in power and the emperor is mediocre, and I risked my life to admonish him, isn't it for the sake of your emperor's country?
What am I trying to do?
As a result, I was imprisoned again, and I didn't even have a doctor, and I had to take a broken porcelain bowl to scrape my bones and heal my wounds, and then you people who didn't do anything tried to refute me with all kinds of crooked reasoning?
Either they want to stigmatize me and prove that I am "inviting a straight name", or they want to persuade me to go along with the dirt and everyone to open up together.
In this world, is it so difficult to be a good person and a good official?
The ministers in power kept saying how difficult it was for them, there were emperors and henchmen, and they had to take care of every mouth; When the emperor also keeps saying that he is difficult, and he also says that clean officials and corrupt officials must beware, so why don't you say that this mess is because of your infinitely expanding selfish desires in the final analysis?
Yes, it is difficult for you all, it is not difficult for the officials to be clear, and it is not difficult for the people?
Although Chu Ge is a student of the history department, he has seen too much of these fucked things in history, and he should have seen it no surprise, but after experiencing Yang Yan's life first-hand at this time, he still wanted to shout: This world is really a piece of stinky shit!
Therefore, the words he said to Emperor Wei Zhao this time were not all for customs clearance.
A large part of the reason is that I want to vent my emotions!
I just want to scold this kind of emperor who doesn't force him at all.
Although this kind of venting was still within the framework of the era at that time, and the choice of words and sentences was quite elegant, the wording was already very harsh.
In case Emperor Wei Zhao was angry and killed him, maybe the copy would still fail.
But Chu Ge is ready to fail, so let's do it again.
Anyway, do it first and be addicted to it, this kind of emperor doesn't scold, keep it for the New Year?
It's a pity that this is a scribe copy, not an assassin copy.
Otherwise, he would have taken out the sword from the black jade unicorn and stabbed him to death!
Sure enough, Emperor Wei Zhao was so angry that his face turned blue and purple for a while, and even under the dim light in the torture room, the change in his face could be clearly seen.
But Emperor Wei Zhao couldn't think of any rebuttal at all, so he could only twitch the bruises on his face, and scolded angrily: "It's wrong, it's wrong!" Anti-......"
He was in the middle of his sentence when he suddenly went limp, and he almost fell out of his chair.
The eunuchs and guards who were waiting outside poured in, and the torture chamber was in chaos.
Chu Ge was still tied, and he was in his heart.
Deserve!
That is, I can't move, I want to move, I really want to go up and give you two more feet!
It's just that looking at the way it is now, the emperor is so angry that he almost faints, and I'm afraid that it will be impossible to clear the customs even if it is a copy.
It's okay, anyway, it's cool to scold, it's a big deal to do it all over again.
However, just as Chu Ge was ready to start over, an interface that he had never seen before appeared in his field of vision.
【Trial of the Scribes: Establishing a Life for the People】
【Clear!】 】
[Clearance evaluation: I believe that after this simple trial, you will understand how firm the belief is needed behind the seemingly simple five words of "making a life for the people". 】
[The "Scribe" status selection has been unlocked!] 】
[Scribe Status's Exclusive Talent "Haoran Righteousness": When you are in a state of clear conscience, the Haoran Righteousness in your chest is more likely to affect others, and even a simple word can bring powerful buffs to others. 】
[Note: Exclusive talents will take effect permanently by default after selecting this identity.] Exclusive talents can still be enhanced in the future as you improve your status, so please match them with optional talents as appropriate to maximize their effectiveness. 】
Chu Ge was a little dazed: "Huh? Did I clear the customs?
"Can you clear the customs so well?
"No, it should be said 'this way to clear the level', this is the way to clear the game is encouraged!"
Chu Ge was still a little surprised when he first saw this clearance interface, because he originally thought that this copy was going to fail.
The core of the game is to play, that is, to play as various historical figures and fulfill their set mission.
The protagonist of the scribe's copy is Yang Yan, whose mission is to impeach the powerful minister Wang Chong and advise Emperor Zhao of Wei.
And Chu Ge's last words to Emperor Wei Zhao were actually obviously beyond the setting of Yang Yan's character.
In fact, all the celebrities and loyal ministers in ancient times had their historical limitations. For example, Yang Yan, although he advised Emperor Wei Zhao, he was indeed sincere to Emperor Wei Zhao, and even in the last poem, there was a special sentence "The King of Heaven is from Shengming".
It means that Emperor Wei Zhao is a saint, but he is just confused for a while, or he is deceived by the powerful minister Wang Chong. I went up to remind Your Majesty to do my duty as a minister. As long as His Majesty knows that his mistakes can be corrected, then it is very good.
In the historical context of the time, this behavior of his was certainly beyond reproach, and would have been regarded as a moral model for the reader.
But in the eyes of Chu Ge, a modern person, it is more or less difficult to accept.
Because Emperor Wei Zhao is obviously a faint monarch, although he has not fainted to the point of the wine pond meat forest and the people are not happy, but in any case, his wanton behavior has indeed harmed a lot of Li people.
Those who could not fill their stomachs because of locust plagues and droughts, and the relief food was exchanged for bran and forage by the royal party, and those people who starved to death, in the final analysis, were not they still killed by this faint king?
If there was no emperor who connived at Wang Chong because of his own selfish desires, how could there be the wanton behavior of the royal party?
Therefore, Chu Ge didn't have Yang Yan's kind of loyalty to Emperor Wei Zhao, he only had one idea, that is, to scold this dog emperor to death!
Although he has deliberately restrained himself in order to play Yang Yan in the copy, this behavior itself is still beyond the scope of playing the character of Yang Yan.
Even so, the game "Dark Sand" still judged him to be successful.
Chu Ge thought thoughtfully: "It seems that the designer of the game "Dark Sand" actually supports my opinion?
"I am indeed playing a historical figure, and I can't completely detach myself from the background of the times, and I can't use the moral concepts and codes of conduct of modern people to replace the historical figures at that time.
"However, I don't have to be so strict and exactly as I am, and I can even have a certain amount of freedom to make up for some of the limitations of the historical figures of the time, as long as it is in line with the spirit of the game.
"In the scribe's copy, the key word is 'for the people' rather than 'loyalty to the monarch,' which means that I can be weaker in terms of loyalty to the king, but I must do it for the people.
"If, on the other hand, I am completely loyal to the monarch and ignore the suffering of the common people, then this trial will still fail.
"So...... Is it true that all the plays are such standards?
"The starting point of all the events and everything in this game is from the perspective of the people of Limin.
"In the assassin trial, Nie Rang assassinated Emperor Yan Ling for the sake of the people of Li; In the trial of the warriors, the nameless lieutenant general assisted General Geng Zhong to defend the border city against Beidi, also for the sake of the people of Limin.
"As for the Ranger Trial, although there is not much information at present, killing the bully can be regarded as for the sake of the common people.
"Hmm...... This is very important, and summarizing the criteria for playing will definitely be of great help to the subsequent dungeon clearance. ”
Chu Ge felt that he had slowly begun to feel the routine of this mysterious game, and he had also begun to gradually understand its connotation.
The goal of this game does not seem to be simply to recreate history by playing as historical figures, but also to have some deeper purpose.
It's just that because the current players are exposed to the Novice Trial Dungeon, I'm afraid they haven't even touched one percent of the content of this game, so this idea can only be regarded as a guess, and there is no way to stone the hammer.
But even so, it is enough to guide the players' game ideas.
Chu Ge didn't bother too much, and directly chose the identity of a scribe.
At present, it seems that the four different classes have their own characteristics, if you look at the class division of traditional RPG games, the warrior is the standard warrior, while the scribe is more like a support class, and Haoran Zhengqi is obviously a buff skill.
However, in this game, the four identities do not only represent the profession, but also affect the identity of the character after entering the game.
Chu Ge thinks that he has no fighting talent, and the other three professions are not very suitable, so he still chooses a support profession like a scribe, solving puzzles, and giving a buff to his teammates, which is more suitable for him.
"I don't know how the Assassin and Ranger Trials dungeons are progressing.
"But judging from the current progress of the players, it should be a matter of these two days to clear the customs.
"After the clearance videos of all trial dungeons come out, you can come up with another strategy to summarize it, so as to facilitate the development of future dungeons.
"So what should we do now?
"Why don't you go to the Ranger dungeon? The backgrounds of the Assassin dungeon and the Pawn dungeon have been completely clarified, but the Ranger dungeon is completely unsure of which historical figure it is, and a lot of details are missing. ”
Chu Ge made up his mind and decided to go to the Ranger dungeon again.
He doesn't have much interest in the Ranger profession and doesn't think he can beat it, but knowing the background of the Ranger quest will help him analyze the game Dark Sand.
Moreover, although he is the best at puzzle and business simulation games, and is a handicap in action games, this does not stop him from playing.
That is, it is commonly known as a person who is addicted to food.
I used to rack my brains to clear the scribe dungeon to prove myself, but now that I have proved it, then I can experience the game like a player.
