Chapter 69: Random Events for NPCs
The voice of the cub is naturally not conveyed in the game.
The NPCs inside can't hear him yelling.
The reason why he did this was not only because the game was too real, but also because he was terrified.
Below the building, in the darkness of the bottomless and unreflected by the moonlight.
A huge face of horror slowly emerged.
Above, wrinkles are all over the place, and the ravines are layered, and it is an old woman's face.
The sparse white hair on the top of the head fluttered in the wind, like thin feet, dense and numb.
The long sinuous neck of the lower body hovers between the buildings, shaped like a snake body, and the tail is not visible.
The two eyes on the face, incomparably small and widely spaced, glow eerie green in the hazy moonlight.
What's even weirder is that since it came out, it has a permeating smile like nothing.
There is no kind feeling at all, on the contrary, it shows endless ferocity.
The cub didn't know how many floors it came from, its neck was so long and thick that all it could see was the end of the abyss below.
Could it be the 90th floor? Or the 85th floor?
But certainly, it didn't come well.
Because, it was smiling and jokingly looking at the father on the 96th floor.
And slowly opened the terrifying huge mouth, revealing the black sharp fangs, dripping disgusting viscous saliva.
Its mouth, so huge, had been torn to the ear.
Therefore, when it is opened, it is like a cross-cut split, and it is connected by the back of the head so that it does not become two halves.
The scene of the monster appearing no longer needs to be reminded by the cub.
The NPC on the 96th floor was naturally discovered.
The little girl screamed in fright.
[Dad...?] Father!! Daddy, come on, daddy!! ——]
Then, in front of the cub's eyes, a small humanoid figure appeared on the glass window, which should be the child in the house who wanted to pull his father in and clinged to the window.
The man hanging outside the building was also trembling with fright.
He tugged at the rope tightly, his mouth screaming in fear as he tried to get back through the crack in the window.
But because of nervousness, or the rope is loose.
Anyway, for a reason that some cub doesn't know.
The man hanging from the window on the 96th floor fell down.
In the quiet night sky, only his screams resounded through the sky.
There was also the cry of the little girl crying bitterly.
[Daddy——!!! ]
But in the next second, the old woman's long neck shrank suddenly, and when the man fell into the bottomless darkness, she grabbed it.
But then, something even more terrifying happened.
The long-necked old woman opened her huge mouth and looked in the direction of the cub with a smile.
Then, with the support of his neck, he slowly rose up and looked at the guest room on the 96th floor.
At this time, the cries of the little girl and the little boy were heard inside.
Mixed together, tearing hearts and lungs, showing extreme fear and fear.
[Go away!] Go away!! Monsters go away——!!! ]
[Help us!!] Help us!! Has anyone helped us!! ——]
The little girl's cry for help sounded so harsh to the cub at the moment.
The crying in his tone mixed with the strong desire to survive made him realize the frightened and helpless hugging scene of a pair of young siblings in the house.
At that moment, his expression froze.
He retracted his head and jumped out of his chair, picking up his bat and about to take the goal.
Obviously, for the cubs.
This is no longer limited to games.
Such a real performance, such a desperate cry for fear, he couldn't feel that it was a pile of code and data.
In his opinion, it is just a pair of poor siblings who have lost their father before entering society.
It's as simple as that.
The cub never thought about whether he could rescue them after he arrived at 9620, and he didn't know if he could win against the long-necked old woman.
All he knew was that he had to rush over now.
Whether it can be saved is one thing, but whether it can be saved or not is another thing.
So the cub didn't think so much, came to the door, held the handle, and didn't have time to open the door.
In the next second, the sound of glass breaking sounded from outside the window.
Then there was the loud movement of the cabinet chairs toppling.
The cries for help of the sisters and brothers suddenly turned into screams that resounded through the world.
But it suddenly came to an abrupt halt, as if something had forced it to stop, and it seemed abrupt.
Then, there was the creepy and terrifying sound of gasps and chewing.
The cub was stunned.
I looked back in disbelief.
Looking out the window at the night sky, he trembled back to the window and looked down.
Only a thick neck was seen writhing underneath.
The huge woman's head had entered the room.
The sound of eating is also clear because of the proximity.
This scene is very similar to the real world.
Snakes hunt their defenseless cubs in their nests.
The difference is that this time it's human.
Seeing this, the cub wearing VR always closed his eyes deeply.
In his mouth, he cursed a word of grass.
Then, without further ado, choose to read the most recent archive.
He wanted to remedy it.
I want to redo what I didn't do just now by reading the file.
The powerful performance of the machine allowed him to load it quickly.
But as the picture appeared, he froze.
In front of you is the door of 9720.
My hand was holding on it, and I didn't have time to open it.
Outside the window, there are still bursts of chewing.
Recent saves of the game...
Just after the end of the matter...
In other words, no matter how he reads the file, he can't go back to the moment when he saved people.
This game...
I see.
If you miss it, you miss it, and there is no possibility of reading the file again.
Is this what the production team wants to tell the players, see the right time to choose?
The cub gritted his teeth, feeling a little heavy.
He returned to the window again, looked at the thick neck below, and tightened the bat in his hand.
He didn't blame the production team for arranging such an NPC plot here.
He only blamed himself for watching the play all the time, and only decided to save people at the last moment.
Thus missing the best moment.
So the production team is not wrong, it is a problem that they are too slow to act.
The audience and fans in the live broadcast room were also stunned by this scene.
"This game... It's so true... Every move doesn't look like a game..."
"VR is far more expressive than PCs... Wrong... It should be said that the production level of the only game is far higher than that of other companies..."
"By the way, can the family downstairs be saved? Or is it... Just a drama show? ”
"I think it should be saved, Brother Cub has been watching the play before, which led to missing the best opportunity to save people."
"I think so too, if Brother Cub goes to save people as soon as possible, let alone the pair of sisters and brothers, maybe even the man can be saved."
"You just talk about saving people, have you ever thought about how to save them? Brother cub goes down, isn't it the same as giving it for nothing? ”
"When the game is unlocked, I will definitely find a way to save this family!"
"Actually, I don't understand, is this a task? Main quests are marked in your phone memos, but what are they? Saying that a side story is not like a side line, and saying that a task is not like a mission. So what should this belong to? ”
Seeing this barrage, the cub pondered for a moment and said his own guess.
"Should it be a random task, or a random event? Anyway, that's pretty much it. ”
"Something like this that doesn't require NPC releases and doesn't have clear mission instructions, but allows players to participate in it, I think it should be a random mission event."
Hearing this, all the audience fans who watched the live broadcast were thoughtful.
Some netizens launched barrage inquiries again.
"Random quest events? Brother cub, if that's the case. Is it possible for players to choose to sit on the sidelines for this kind of mission? Or can you choose to intervene in it to change the result? ”
As soon as this barrage came out, many people agreed.
"Woe, if that's what the random quest is set up to do? Wouldn't that change the fate of all the NPCs in this building? ”
"Yes, yes, the previous one is right. Players can choose to be indifferent, just like the family downstairs. It is also possible to choose to save people and then change the outcome of their mortality. Wo groove, this game is simply amazing! ”
"It's not just amazing, if that's the case, it's already a god, right? RPG games on the market have always been sent by the village chief to the player to kill chickens at the entrance of the village. The program is fixed, the gameplay is old-fashioned, and I'm tired of spitting! Now that there is such a design that players can freely choose to participate in the mission, I can't imagine how to blow this game! ”
"Really, the game is so realistic. The player has the strength to save the NPCs in the game. has no strength, just like Brother Cub watching their tragic end. The degree of freedom is so high! Not saving is one choice, and saving is another. This kind of setting that leaves the choice to the player is the real game! ”
The cub always looked at the barrage, and then at the monster below.
Gritting his teeth, he made a decision in his heart.
"Brothers, in the rest of the process, I will do all the random task events I see. It's a big deal to die and start over.,It's up to show the brothers what the freedom of this game and the NPC plot is.。 ”
After the people in the live broadcast room saw it, they immediately swiped the gifts and said yes!
And at this moment, the core core entered the live broadcast room of the cub.
Then a barrage was posted.
"I'm done with the prologue, pull me in!"
