Chapter 131: The Possibility of Going Back (Part 3)
Zhou Jian didn't care about the two things that the old lady gave him at this time, but asked, "I want to ask, if I complete your task, can I return to the original world, uh............ Maybe you don't know what I mean, I'm actually from another world, we call you NPCs, do you know what NPCs are?"
Marco glanced at Zhou Jian and said, "You're talking about other universes, I know, this is "Gods and Demons 2", I'm an NPC, I have completed the task I gave you, you can go back." ”
"God...... Zhou Jian was stunned, he naturally remembered the explanation in the magnetic film: The game space set by aliens is divided into several levels, and the lowest level of "Gods and Demons 1" is just a "audition"
Suitable, the suitables who pass the selection can enter "Gods and Demons 2", and one will be promoted until all are completed.
In other words, there may even be "Gods and Demons 3" and "Gods and Demons 4".
How did I inexplicably enter "Gods and Demons Phenol?If you want to say that the strength ranking of global players in "Gods and Demons 1", it is estimated that you can count to 10 million to count yourself, why did you enter "Gods and Demons 2"?
Is it because of the Demon Slayer incarnation?
I am the 128th "Outsider", so who was before that? Is it an evolutionary among humans? Could it be that long before the open beta of "Gods and Demons", evolutionaries all over the world have started playing "Gods and Demons"?
Or...... They're just ...... Alien?
No, if the aliens have been to the well, the NPCs here should speak alien languages, right? At least it should be some cosmic lingua franca or something.
"Old woman" I want to ask, you just said, I am the 128th "outsider" so I want to ask, when did the first outsider seem to be here, what do they look like? I mean, he is like me......" Zhou Jian pointed to himself, "hair, eyes, nose, no hair on the body, two arms and two tuǐ, we call ourselves human, are they human?" The old lady seemed to be lost in thought, and after a while, she said slowly: "It's been a long, long time" No one knows when the first outsiders came" Our tribe has been doing the job of welcoming outsiders for so many years. I was just sensible when I met the first outsider, he was the first outsider, and he looked like a red-skinned demon with wings. ”
“......”
Zhou Jian was stunned, I am afraid that the previous 127 outsiders have nothing to do with the existing evolutionaries on the earth.
"The winged red-skinned, what language does he speak, the same as you and me? We call it Earthling............ Uh, in fact, it's not even Earthling, "It should be said that it is Mandarin, and they also speak Mandarin?" Zhou Jian felt that his mind was a little confused, how could aliens speak the same thing to the Chinese, could it be that in ancient times, the language of the ancestors was taught by aliens? No, "Even if this is the case, they should be taught oracle bone script, it cannot be modern Chinese."
"It's not the same.
The old chief shook his head.
"Different?
"Understand, we can communicate with anyone through spirit. ”
Zhou Jian was slightly stunned, and then remembered that this was a plane composed of spiritual energy, but there was still a problem...... "Why do you look the same as me?" in Zhou Jian's imagination, "The maker of the gods and demons should be able to make NPc according to their own templates, which is reasonable."
How can it be so similar to humans? Could it be that the creators of "Gods and Demons 2" were originally humans?
Or is it a race that resembles humans? That's a coincidence, isn't it?
"We were born like this. The old chief looked at Zhou Jian with strange eyes, as if he was wondering why this young man had so many strange questions, "I haven't asked you yet, why are you the same as us?"
Zhou Jian was stunned for a while, could it be that human beings wrote "Gods and Demons 2"? In order to confirm this conjecture" Zhou Jian asked, "Old woman, how old are you?"
"Hmm...... It's more than 300 years old, and people are old and can't remember anything clearly......" "......"
Zhou Jian took a deep breath, if this 300-year-old is not the background of the NPc character set by the program, but the time that the old lady really spends, then three hundred years ago, human beings did not even have the Internet, what kind of online games did they play, that is to say, the players of "Gods and Demons" may not be limited to the ...... of the earth, whether in the past or in the present......
At the age of three hundred, the 98th outsider was only seen when he was a child, and I am afraid that this tribe has been doing the work of welcoming outsiders for a thousand years. What a scary time.
If the "Gods and Demons" played by the earthlings is just one of the "audition" locations...... Realizing this, Zhou Jian felt a chill down his spine.
But I still don't understand why all the NPs in "Gods and Demons 2" are earthlings......
Zhou Jian shook his head, he didn't want to think about it, from this xìng, Zhou Jian is not an imaginative and adventurous person, he prefers to live a down-to-earth life, he doesn't want to have anything to do with aliens or anything like that.
Although he has a premonition of uneasiness in his heart, he must complete the task according to the setting of "Gods and Demons 2", because he wants to go home.
He said, "I want to ask what the mission is?"
"About this mission, there is actually a story background, but I don't bother to say it, I don't think you want to hear it, so I'll tell you the mission goal to kill the spider queen located in the underground nest Xué. ”
Zhou Jian was dumbfounded, generally NPc will say, XXX years ago, the gods and demons war, and then the XXX warriors were sealed, and they made a mess, and then for the sake of justice, you have to kill XXX and so on, this NPC is simple enough.
Kill the Spider Queen, in "Gods and Demons 1", Elder Marco just asked the player to kill a level 5 spider, that task is extremely simple, and this task, judging from the two green wolves he encountered outside the city, will definitely not be easy.
The two green wolves who can only be small minions force themselves to do their best, if it is a spider's nest...... Is it possible for the overwhelming spiders and the spider queen among the many spiders to succeed on their own?
"Outsider, come with me, I'll show you the two things I gave you, it's our clan's duty to be here. The old lady said, turned around and walked into the side room of the tent, looking at the old lady's rickety back, the weirdness in Zhou Jian's heart became more and more intense, he has always felt that something is missing since he entered this tribe, think carefully about what he has seen and heard along the way, and then compare the white-bearded old men in "Gods and Demons", Zhou Jian has a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he is gone, this tribe lacks vitality.
Whether it was the previous guard or the old lady named Marco, they all looked lifeless.
Along the way, although some people would look at themselves a few times, but no one had ever accosted them, it was not unusual for them not to know Zhou Jian and not to speak, but they should always know the long tuǐ girl guard, but only a few children smiled at them.
But this should be a normal NPC, the NPCs of "Gods and Demons 1" before can only be said to be too spoofed, and now Zhou Jian will not wonder why the NPCxìng grid in "Gods and Demons 1" is so realistic, because they are all ultra-modern technology in a real plane with spiritual energy condensed virtual characters, naturally not a computer program can compare.
The old lady had gone to the corner of the tent by this time, and she took a long pole and hooked a box from the wall of the tent. It is a very quaint wooden box, without any huā carvings, covered with dust, and looks a little old.
Is it equipment? Zhou Jian was looking forward to it.
The old lady stretched out her old hand like dry wood and pushed the box open, and then lù took out the contents of the box, an ancient book.
In "Gods and Demons 1", Chief Marco will give a lock-picking skill book worth half a gold coin, "Gods and Demons 2> won't be so cheating.
Zhou Jian raised his eyes and looked up, it was a thread-bound book with a cover wrapped in sheepskin, which read...... Uh, I don't understand.
That's not the text that Zhou Jian knows, it can't be an alien text, if you talk about these NPCs
The program communicates with psychic energy, but the words are alien, which makes sense.
The old lady said, "This is the spiritual mind of the Shadow Clan. ”
The so-called mental method is a skill book, a clan of shadows, and the tribe of shadows, when you think about it, this name is very suitable for the appearance of thieves.
Zhou Jian is very happy, you can get it again with your own upgrade after equipping or something, but the skills are different, and the skills you learn in this world are likely to be out-of-print skills.
Zhou Jian took the skill book with both hands, "Can I use it now?"
"Yes. ”
Zhou Jian's heart is full of expectations, what kind of skills will it be?
He tried to link the spiritual power to the book, using the skill book according to the method of "Gods and Demons 1", in "Gods and Demons 1", the skill book will disappear after using it once, and then the player will learn the skills instantly.
This time, however...... No response?
Huh? Not enough grades?
Zhou Jian tried again, but there was still no response.
He glanced at the old lady suspiciously, and the old lady also looked at him suspiciously, the two looked at each other for a while, and Zhou Jian coughed lightly, "Uh...... How I can't use this book. ”
The old lady looked at Zhou Jian with the expression of looking at the Alzheimer's patient, "How can you use it if you don't open it?"
"Flip ............ Open it?" Zhou Jian was a little confused, he had already realized from the old lady's expression that something was wrong, what did it mean, could it really be like cultivating martial arts cheats, opening the book and learning chapter by chapter? But I don't even know the words.
Zhou Jian opened the book and looked at it, sure enough, it was all the weird words on the cover, what kind of world is this "Gods and Demons 2", why can he understand the speech, but he can't understand the text.
"Are you illiterate?" asked the old lady, seeing this.
(There is one more in the evening.)
