Chapter 15: I Am

Lin Qi and Jiang Hong stepped up to solve the dinner, but they had no choice but to buy too much food, and Jiang Hong was not here, so they cleaned up the table halfway through the meal and hastily ended the battle.

Jiang Hong climbed to the foot of the bed again, picked up the COME helmet, and looked at it carefully.

"This is really a prototype...... I've seen it in the market, and the outside of the helmet is also a variety of game themes, bells and whistles. This handwritten COME is really domineering. Hey, if this is auctioned, it should sell for a lot of money. It's the fear that there will be legal liability. ”

"Really?"

Lin Qi looked back and asked in surprise while cleaning up the table.

"I thought it would sell for a few thousand dollars at most. After all, this helmet is a prototype, and many of its features may not be available. ”

"Who wants features? That's collecting, you know? Collection! If you give it to an average player, it will definitely be sold at a second-hand price, or even cheaper. But if you put it at auction, it could be sky-high. Moreover, the value of this helmet will become more and more expensive as the COME device becomes more and more popular. ”

Suddenly, Jiang Hong discovered the problem.

"Hey, by the way, didn't your dad design games? Why is the prototype of this helmet here for you? ”

"It should be my mother. She seems to be designing artificial intelligence or some kind of algorithm. The development company of Soul Domain and the R&D company of COME are the same, and I guess my mother was involved in the development of COME. ”

"Oh...... Such...... Ay....... ”

Jiang Hong didn't know how to continue the topic, but Lin Qi asked.

"By the way, you have a few topics, you can help study them."

"Oh...... Yes? What topics? ”

"First of all, I've seen them live stream the content of the game in the helmet before, and I want to try it too. Even if you can't stream live, it's best to cast it on my laptop. Second, I haven't found a way to connect with the outside world in the game, so it's impossible to play the game and be isolated from the world. These are a few questions that you study and study. ”

"You! You're not only a game master, but also a computer professional. You're asking me to be a finance major doing this? ”

Jiang Hong was really depressed, while Lin Qi smiled and waved his hand disapprovingly.

"If you can work hard, I'll leave it to you."

Jiang Hong studied the helmet speechlessly, and after a while found a jack, which was a high-definition multimedia interface.

"Do you have an HDMI cable here, there's a hole here, maybe it can connect to your laptop."

"My laptop can only output, and if you want HDMI input, you may have to buy an adapter device. I'll see if there are any food delivery platforms. ”

"Well, then you buy it first, and I'll take a look at the game. Heck, a little excited. ”

"By the way, will it be my account or your own when you go in?"

"It is said that this helmet is identified based on brain waves, so normally it should be a different account. I'll go in and see, you guy, don't you know anything for so long? ”

In Lin Qi's embarrassed laughter, Jiang Hong lay on the bed with a helmet.

Lin Qi looked at Jiang Hong, who was lying still, imagining that he was also like this when he was playing, and he felt a little strange in his heart. If you don't know this, you might think that there has been a murder.

I don't know how long Jiang Hong will play, Lin Qi sat down in front of the computer and checked the Soul Domain forum.

There were many new posts in the forum, Lin Qi roughly browsed the homepage, and found that most of the posts that appeared were newcomers seeking advice, and the posts recruited by the three major guilds before were pushed down.

A pinned post caught Lin Qi's attention.

"The open world adapts to the difficulty changes. The beast tide in Yingjie Town has become stronger, and the three major guilds have jointly recruited to support the city defense troops!! ”

Lin Qi clicked on the post, and was a little curious about the dynamics mentioned in the title, and saw that the time when the post was published was actually 2 o'clock in the morning this morning.

"Urgent news! Urgent news! A war bear appeared in the beast tide in Yingjie Town, and the level was greatly increased. Now it is speculated that the players who participated in the defense of the city last time have become stronger, which has affected the strength of this beast tide.

In order to ensure the normal upgrade of the members of the first tier, without affecting the defense of the beast tide. The three guilds jointly issued a statement to recruit players level 20 and below to join the defending forces.

Priority classes: Giant Shield Fighter, Heal Hermit and Feather Warrior. ”

If you are interested, you can find lemons in the game to register, or add the Qilian account Soulgame201078. “

followed by a bunch of comments, Lin Qirao looked at it with interest.

"Sign up! Registration is required! If you want to defeat the North King, Yingjie Town can't be lost! ”

"What a missed opportunity! I want to participate too! It's a pity that the level is more than ......"

"I'm only level 7, can I participate?"

"Is there a limit to the number of people? I want to go too. ”

"@柠檬子, applied, please pass."

……

Lin Qi looked at it, and found a popular reply.

"For the sake of my family Ling'er, I swear to defend Yingjie Town to the death!"

Lin Qi didn't understand who this Ling'er was. It turned out that there were also a bunch of comments on this reply below.

"The hatred of taking a wife is not shared!"

"Ling'er is from my family!"

"For Ling'er, defend Yingjie Town!"

"For Ling'er, defend Yingjie Town!"

"For the sake of Ling'er, defend Yingjie Town!

Lin Qi saw a black line, so he searched and found that Ling'er was actually the daughter of the shopkeeper of Juyi Hall in Yingjie Town, and occasionally acted as a receptionist in Juyi Hall. According to the terminology of the game, it is the existence of Kanban Niang.

Lin Qi didn't expect this NPC to be so popular, so he searched again. I found that there was actually an analysis of how to get NPC favorability in the forum, I want to marry Ling'er!! post.

When you open it, you can see that the characteristics of NPCs are analyzed in detail.

NPCs have independent personalities, personalities, worldviews, and family backgrounds. Each NPC is a separate setting, and it's also unique. Interacting with NPCs can increase their friendship, not only by completing quests, but also by giving gifts, chatting, and other behaviors.

Since each NPC has a different personality, there is no uniform way to improve. But the landlord of the post analyzes several possible patterns. NPCs are classified into several categories based on their identity, status, occupation, and family background. It can be classified by large categories and then subdivided.

Lin Qi looked at the back of a bunch of analyses, and there was actually the impact of the same behavior on different sample NPCs. I didn't expect this landlord to be quite professional, and after looking at the name, it was the person who said just now that he swore to defend Yingjie Town, which is not difficult to understand.

At the end of the post, it is also said that the ultimate exploration of the NPC system is whether it is possible to marry an NPC in the game. The article claims that NPCs have some concepts and understandings of the player's existence. Among the intimate relationships between the two parties, only marriage is the most stable relationship, and the married parties should have a more stable life than what is the marriage and righteousness. So what is the impact of the player having to go offline on the NPC, which is the thing that the author wants to explore the most.

(What kind of people are there...... I don't know how my mother designed these AIs in the first place. If I ask Uncle Li, can I get the result directly? )

Lin Qi is also very interested in the topic of whether NPCs can get married. After all, in the virtual world, finding a wishful husband and wife is also something that players talk about. A lot of games use beautiful character avatars and various intimacy systems as gimmicks.

Thinking about it, Lin Qi came back to his senses, and he seemed to have been led astray. He went back to the previous post and found the Soulgame201078 Qilian account.

After entering the account number and adding it, the system pops up a prompt box and needs to answer the other party's question.

What is your Soul Domain character account??

Lin Qi didn't want to hide anything, and directly filled in the "broken array".

Within a few seconds, the other party agreed to Lin Qi's friend invitation.

“Hi!”

Lin inspired the first chat.

"Are you breaking the array?"

"Well, yes."

"I'm a lemon!"

"Lemon??"

Lin Qi had no impression of this name, and he didn't seem to have been in contact with it.

"Oh, no, we fought together yesterday! I'm a lemon! Longsword samurai? Beast tide? Don't remember? ”

Lin Qi was a little embarrassed, he really didn't remember, but it seemed a bit rude to say this. To be honest, Lin Qi has some flaws at the social level.

"Well, it's really not impressive. I can't see other people's information in the game......"

"Huh? So? That's no wonder. You're pretty aggressive. Oh, by the way, our family president happened to be looking for you. I'll push you to her. ”

"President? Bear blind? ”

"Yes. She said she talked to you, but forgot to leave her contact information. ”

Lin Qi was a little strange, he didn't know what the blind bear was looking for him, but after all, he was also a player in the game, and it was normal to add contact information to each other.

I talked with Lemon for a while and inquired about the news of the joint garrison of the city. As a result, I found that my level was still too low, and the number of samurai positions was limited, so I might not be able to take my turn at that time.

After the forum post, many players responded positively, and many players have already signed up. Since we don't know what the real difficulty improvement conditions are, in order to reduce the dimension of judgment, the number of participants is also limited, and a maximum of 50 people can participate in one event.

I don't know if I've already cooperated once, Lemon has a pretty good impression of Lin Qi, claiming that once there is a low-level position, Lin Qi will be arranged.

(I haven't played much games myself, so I'm starting to go through the backdoor of the relationship?) )

Lin Qi was also a little crying and laughing, and at this time, Jiang Hong in the contact list actually initiated a voice message.

"Linzi, hey? Feed! ”

Lin Qi glanced at Jiang Hong, who was still lying motionless on the bed, in surprise, his mouth was indeed not moving.

"Are you in the game?"

"I haven't gone in yet, I just installed a seven-link, test the chat."

Lin Qi was a little surprised, I didn't expect this helmet to be really powerful, if you can play games in the game, while projecting the screen to the monitor, while voice chatting, isn't it possible to remotely voice support?

"Oh, I hear you pretty clearly. Awesome, kudos to you. ”

"You want to eat! I'm ready to enter the game, and the voice hangs first. ”

"Good. You play in peace, I'll continue to read the forum. ”

As soon as Lin Qi hung up the voice communication, he found that there was another friend invitation, whose name was "Easy Bear". This name made Lin Qi a little surprised, although he could hear the other party talking in the game, he looked like a cool girl, but he didn't expect the screen name to be so cute. The name in the game is also Bear Blind, and it seems that he likes bears very much.

After his friend passed, Lin Qi habitually sent a message of condolence.

“Hi”

As a result, the other party sent a voice application, and Lin Qi was a little surprised, but he pressed the connect button without pretentiousness.

"Hello?"

"Hello. I'm blind bears. ”

"Hello, hello, I'm broken."

"Are you PZZ, please?"

Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, but without a trace of hesitation, he immediately replied.

"Huh? I'm breaking the bar. ”

"So, you're not a PZZ?"

"What are you talking about? Leather thieves? ”

The other side was silent for a while, and it seemed that he took a deep breath and spoke again.

"An e-sports player, PZZ, English P, Z, Z, have you ever heard of it?"

Lin Qi reacted at this time, she was speaking in English. It's been a long time ago, and I seem to have forgotten what it represents. Now it's coming out of the mouth of an almost stranger.,It's a bit like a world away.。。

Lin Qi was at war with some celestial beings, and he didn't know how to answer this question. For himself, it was just a screen name that he had used to use, and he had almost forgotten what it used to mean. But for the current self, this is just a cloud of the past, and there seems to be nothing to care about.

"Well, I'm PZZ."
