"Welcome to the world of rules quirks."

"Notice to the user, the second is the only button in the upper left corner of the user panel, the shape is square, the color is red, and the RGB value is (255,0,0).' The four words 'Force Exit' are in bold, the color is white, and the RGB value is (255,255,255).

"30 lives + mental pollution, right?" Bai Buzhi looked at the input command, "Good guy, there are quite a lot of stalks, it is worthy of dandruff." ”

New Blood Games - the world's largest game company by market value in the mid-21st century, with a number of well-known games. However, because the name is so weird, it has been abbreviated as a XX game all year round, and it sounds like a curse. Later, it was called a blood tour by a good deed, and it was out of shape when it was passed on, and finally the fixed nickname became crumb you.

And at this moment, it is the latest game released by this company: "Strange Tales of Rules 2023".

It's outrageous, it's 2043, put aside this to play 2023, and the culture will go back 20 years.

"Please create your Player ID, limited to 2-16 bytes. If you have the same name as someone else or involve sensitive words, the review will not be approved. ”

Bai Buzhi thought about it, typed "Cthulhu", and didn't pass.

"Azathoth", did not pass.

"Barbatos", did not pass.

"As it comes", it did not pass.

For example, after trying the names of gods in dozens of different civilization systems, the game pops up a prompt: "It is detected that the player has tried to use the game resources by violating the name many times, and now the system will leave the player with one last chance to name it." If it still fails this time, the system will revoke the player's self-naming permission and randomly generate an ID for the player. ”

Bai Buzhi: "......" Oh, I'm off.

He really wanted to try what it was at random, but the game had only been on service for less than an hour, and it was likely that he didn't even have a name change card, so if a "pink furry unicorn" randomly came out, he would have to carry this ID for a long time.

So I still used my most commonly used ID: Bai Buzhi.

Thanks to his parents, this real name is similar to a fake name, and it is simply used casually. I heard that his parents liked to read an infinite stream novel when they were young, and the name was also influenced by the protagonist in it, which really makes people sigh that the second disease will never be cured.

"The ID is created, I don't know you, welcome to the world of Strange Talk 2023."

As soon as Bai Buzhi finished clicking on it, he received a friend application. ID "Zhiyuan Starman", you don't need to look at it to know that it belongs to his friend and roommate Qin Zhiyuan, who has been in college for three and a half years.

He clicked yes, and the video chat was immediately connected.

"Okay?" Qin Zhiyuan said, "Group? ”

Bai Buzhi sent him an application to form a team: "You stupid son who skipped the cultural class really still wants to come and beg his father to take him away." ”

Qin Zhiyuan hehe: "Climb for Lao Tzu." Whoever drags back this time will eat...... One week. ”

"Then you're going to lose." Bai doesn't know the way. At this time, the system notification came: "Do you want to open a copy of the beginner's tutorial?" ”

Bai Buzhi's eyes focused on "OK", and after 2 seconds, the recognition was successful, and the next prompt followed: "I detected that you are in a team state, and there are 2 team members, do you enter the 2-person novice tutorial copy with your teammates?" ”

Bai Buzhi chose to confirm again, and his video chat with Qin Zhiyuan was hung up by the system.

The world before me was plunged into pitch black, leaving only a white glittering progress bar. There is a small system prompt above the progress bar: "In order to ensure the player's immersive experience, the data explanation will not be provided in the beginner tutorial dungeon, and the game will be explained to you in the landing space replay after the dungeon ends." ”

Bai Buzhi smiled in his heart.

Nowadays, many games are eager for players to be able to crush the level violently and brainlessly. The novice tutorial has no difficulty to ensure that the player has a hand, and the later copy adds attributes to the krypton gold player, so that the player will continue to pass the level easily and get the thrill of 9999 with a knife and krypton.

However, crumbs have always been a particularly sentimental company. Even if the game seems too hardcore to many newcomers, as if it allows first-graders to face high math, it doesn't have the idea of lowering the bar and expanding its audience - which adds a lot of fans to it.

Ten seconds later, the system prompt refreshed: "HP bar is displayed in the upper left corner of the player's field of view, representing the player's health point." If the player has not cleared the level and the HP value is 0, the player will be judged to have failed the level and leave the dungeon. ”

"Even if the health bar is empty, even if you die, it's normal." Bai doesn't know what to think about.

Ten seconds later, a third system prompt will be displayed: "The MP bar is displayed below the HP bar, representing the player's mental point." When the MP value is below 100, the player may experience some discomfort. When the MP value falls below a certain level, the player may lose control of the character. If you apply for forced withdrawal due to panic, the loss of points will be borne by the player. ”

Bai Buzhi had just finished reading this paragraph, and the progress bar and hints had dissipated. The vision lit up again, and he was standing on a street, with Qin Zhiyuan beside him, and there were four small green words "Zhiyuan Starman" above his head.

Bai Buzhi looked up, and there were two bars in the upper left corner of the field of vision, one red and one green, the red bar was HP, and the green bar was MP, both of which were full at this time.

A party panel also appeared on the left side of the field of vision, and Qin Zhiyuan's HP could be seen, but the MP value was invisible.

Next to the party panel is the mission panel.

"Main quest (0/1), enter the "Whale Fall" gallery and check the gallery entry rules."

Fortunately, this is only a beginner's tutorial after all, and the place where they are standing now is facing this gallery called "Whale Fall", which saves them from finding.

"I guess the gallery has a competitor called 'Shark Drop.'" Bai Buzhi ruthlessly pushed the door as he spoke, and the two of them rushed in.

The wind chimes on the glass door woke up the old man reading the newspaper behind the entrance counter, and he asked, "Visit?" ”

"Do you collect money?" Bai didn't know how to ask rhetorically.

"If you don't buy it, you won't be charged." The corners of the old man's mouth twitched.

Bai Buzhi and Qin Zhiyuan's two poor dogs glanced at each other, and they invariably gave birth to a heartfelt joy of white prostitution.

The old man pointed to a blackboard next to him: "Read the precautions before going in." ”
