Chapter 3 The Front Yard
Don't be surprised to see anything! That's what Kyung-hee told herself. After two generations of BTT games, he was no wonder that there was no reason to lose his composure about anything, but everything in front of him was so realistic, he thought to himself how much resolution could be so extreme, and it was perfect for a game in terms of visual effects.
Jingxi doesn't like the word perfection, because there is no such thing as objective perfection in this world, he believes that everything has room and room for improvement, but looking at that "grandpa" this time, he can't find a more appropriate word than perfection.
"You can call me that, I won't mind." The old man's face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes were smiling. He was holding a costume in his hand.
"What the hell are you!" Jing Xi was sure that it was not his grandfather, this was the world in the game, and his grandfather could not speak Chinese so fluently.
"What's that? You're the thing, you're a little thing! The old man suddenly became serious, and it was evident that he was now very angry. After saying the angry words, he threw the clothes in his hand to Jing Xi.
Jing Xi feels incredible, is this really a game world, this old man must be too individual, can he choose what he wants to say? As he thought, he put on his clothes. After wearing it, he felt again, where have he seen this dress! Wasn't this a gift from his father when he was sixteen? He didn't wear this dress, and the reason why he had an impression of it was because he gave it to Liu Kaiwei later. That year, Liu Kai didn't wear it often, and it was difficult for him to remember it or not.
A terrible conjecture that makes Jingxi atmosphere. He pointed to his head and stared at the old man and said, "You have invaded my place? ”
The old man hurriedly waved his hand to deny.
"We won't hack into your memories, and even if we could, it would cause us a lot of unnecessary trouble, and I assure you, we would never do that to any player. My job here is to answer any question that I can answer. ”
"Questions you can answer? Then could you please explain what is going on with my dress? ”
This one can be answered, and it is easy to answer. You look at the world, you look at me, you look at your clothes, don't you think there's anything in common? ”
"I don't know, if I do, why would I ask you?"
"It's the perfect world in your mind, the way I look, and the clothes you wear, are what you want to see and what you want. So it's not that we're hacking into your memories, it's that you've made it yourself. Every player has a world like this, somewhere between the real world and the game world. ”
Jing Xi immediately denied: "No, I don't want this dress at all, and I don't want to see you disguise yourself as a grandfather." ”
"Really?" The old man spread his hands, as if to say, it is really difficult to serve people now.
"Yes."
"Hey, what do you think of this?" The second half of the old man's words suddenly changed to a girl's voice. This familiar but sound instantly touched Jingxi's heart, and the old man in front of him turned into a girl at a speed that could not be seen with the naked eye.
The girl is very good-looking, and she is almost as tall as Jingxi when she is tall. She wore a crisp white dress and carried a sketchbook and a delicate small box for painting utensils in her arms. The strange thing is that at this time, out of nowhere, a bright ray of sunlight is projected on the girl's body, illuminating her fair skin, making her already charming facial features exude a charming power.
This was the first time Kyung-hee met Bai Xue in high school, and she was dressed like this, holding a pencil case and a notebook, strolling past his classroom door on a sunny morning. At that moment, Jingxi happened to look out the window, and the sudden scenery touched his heartstrings. Bai Xue's beautiful side face was imprinted in the depths of his mind without much effort.
"You, you, you!" Jingxi was suddenly dumbfounded.
"Don't like this either?"
"No, wait, that... So be it. Jing Xi pretended to be calm and composed, and did not say anything. From time to time, he peeked at the snow in this world, and it wasn't until they looked at each other that he hurriedly covered his panic and asked, "What kind of supercomputer can run such a huge world, and a metal helmet can really do such a thing." ”
Shirayuki smiled mysteriously. She walked to a place and sat down in a bent motion, when a chair suddenly appeared behind her to support her. I don't know when a large easel appeared in front of her. Jing Hee felt that the easel was also familiar, just like the one in his school's art classroom, with a smooth wooden board on it, and two clips at the top of the board to hold it together with a piece of self-textured drawing paper.
"BTT Three is actually an entrance. You can think of the game Age of Heroes as a room, and the place you're in today could probably be called the front yard. The size of the front yard is determined by the number of players. It is supported by your BTT trio. Every player who buys BTT III is invited by the owner of this room, and the player has the right to open the door to the Heroic Age at any time. ”
Jingxi walked up to Bai Xue and watched her draw.
The pencil went back and forth fluently on the paper, and from time to time I saw Bai Xue stop the pen in his hand and look at the crimson star stranded on the horizon in the distance.
"What kind of game is Age of Heroes?"
"That's not a game, it's another world."
"The world?"
"That's right." Bai Xue's tone was like talking to an idiot, as if she was taking it for granted.
"All players are in the same world?"
Bai Xue replied, "Strictly speaking, there are as many worlds as there are players. Just like you usually play single-player games, you are playing the same game, but you are all at a different pace. It's also worth mentioning that an hour in reality is a week in that world, and you should also know that Age of Heroes is only open for players for one hour a day, but you can log in at any time of the day, and of course time in the front yard is not included. ”
"One hour equals a week?"
Bai Xue snorted and laughed, "In addition to players, there are also three billion living beings. Each player's original world is the same. Of course, the characters are chosen by the players themselves. ”
"Are you sure your job is to answer my questions, not fool me? As far as I know, there are more than 12 million players around the world, and according to you, the other end of BTT 3 is 12 million worlds, 3.9 billion NPCs multiplied by 12 million! You really didn't go to school. An hour of reality is equal to a week in the game, am I a child? ”
"It's 3.9 billion creatures, not NPCs."
"What is a character in the game that is not a player, not an NPC? Is it a string of code? Or is it up to you, the NPC, to tell me? ”
"I ask you, what are you in your world?"
"What am I? Of course I'm myself. ”
"How would you feel if someone said you were an NPC?"
"I'm an NPC? Is there an NPC like me who can jump around and do whatever he likes? ”
"Every living being in that world has a will and does whatever it wants."
"Wouldn't that ruin the player's experience?"
"What big event do you think is happening in your world that concerns you? Can you influence a country? Can you call a halt when there is a war between nations? If not, how can you influence the experience of those players, what are you not an NPC? ”
"Me!" Jingxi pointed at himself, his nose was crooked, and he couldn't squeeze out a word for a long time. Bai Xue held the pencil in her hand, looked at the scenery in the distance with her eyes half-open, and calculated the relationship and proportion between objects.
"Don't bother, argue with me, I have hundreds of millions of ways to refute your grandson. I have a supercomputer behind me. As she spoke, Bai Xue smiled proudly.
Jing Xi didn't believe in evil, and said: "I have a memory, from the beginning of my sensibility to the present, there are not fifteen years, but also twelve or three years of memory. ”
"Do you remember everything, every minute and every second, what you did, what you saw, what you thought, what your mood was? Do you remember all of this? Don't say a few years, add up all the things you remember, it's probably the time of a movie, how big is a movie, give you Blu-ray HD, fifty GB, is it enough? ”
"You!" Jingxi pointed to Bai Xue, and was speechless for a long time.
"I can even tell you that I can remember things since I was born, every minute and every second, what I see, what I think, what I feel, how is it, who do you think is more like an NPC than our memories?"
"Empty words."
"If you want to hear it, I can tell you slowly, I've got hundreds of millions of versions ready to start."
"Say, I'll listen." Jing Xi crossed his hands in front of his chest, and his confident expression seemed to say, blow it, the is blown out, look at how round you are.
"You don't have any confidence at all, and people usually make the movement of crossing their hands in front of their chest when they are not confident."
When Bai Xue said this, Jing Xi felt uncomfortable, and felt that any kind of action he made was awkward.
"Don't change the subject!"
"As you wish, let's start with the version......"
I don't know how long I heard it, but Jingxi began to feel a little sleepy. He stayed up all night yesterday, and he didn't know how long it had been since the early hours of the morning, and he hadn't slept all night. He lies in his own world, in the center of this garden. He still listened to Bai Xue tell about his experience, trying to find the flaws in her words. However, hours passed, and the snow still flowed like a river. What makes Jing Xi desperate the most is that her story is almost synchronized with time, if it is said that three hours have passed, then Bai Xue is talking about what she has just been born three hours ago, what she sees, hears, and thinks of .......
Jingxi slowly closed his eyes, and then reluctantly opened them again, forcing himself to concentrate and listen. After a while, he closed his eyes again. Suddenly, the world was quiet, and Bai Xue stopped talking, as if she knew that he had really fallen asleep this time. She walked up to Jingxi and sat beside him, and Bai Xue suddenly turned into a young woman. She carefully picked up Kyung-hee's head and placed it on her soft legs. She stroked Kyung-hee's hair and hummed a lullaby.
"Sleep, sleep, my dear darling......"
