Chapter 365: Falling into the Space-Time Node
The operating system of Chrono Key is not complicated.
Controlling Crono, who had already gotten up, came to the window, and through the glass, he could vaguely see a small spot in the distant square.
You can see balloons constantly floating out of the square.
Today, as the Kingdom's millennium celebration, is a great festival.
The curtains on the side are obviously interactive.
Erxiao tried to interact with the curtains, and the curtains on both sides closed instantly.
The change of light and shadow cast by the sun's rays through the curtains in the early morning is amazing.
"This picture is worthy of the original intention."
While it's true that the graphics are new technology, the game's system is clearly still a classic one.
Controlling Kronor like a rat crossing the street, he searched the entire bedroom, and after confirming that nothing was missing, Er Xiao chose to go downstairs.
Gina waited here.
Erxiao's side triggered a conversation.
From the conversation with his mother, he learned that Cronor also has a childhood sweetheart named Luca who loves to invent.
Crono seems to have offered to check out Luca's latest invention.
"The heroine is out at the beginning, and it's really a simple and rough design."
"If you have a childhood sweetheart, you are bound to have a heavenly system! Blind guess that the Heavenly Descending Department is the princess of this kingdom. β
"Damn, the princess is too much of a mess."
"But it's very likely."
In the discussion of everyone in the live broadcast room, Er Xiao also controlled Crono to receive 200G pocket money from his mother and chose to go out directly.
[Heping Town]
The name of the town is told to the player in the upper part of the game interface.
Balloons, streamers.
The town of peace is also filled with festive joy.
When you open the map, in addition to the houses, key buildings such as prop shops and hotels have hints on the map.
The game does a good job of guiding here, and if the player doesn't know the way, there will also be automatic pathfinding here.
Talking to the residents on the side of the road with joy on their faces, in addition to the emotion of a better life, you can also successfully learn some information.
"You know what? This year marks the 1,000th year since the founding of the Kingdom of Galdia.
The current King of Galdia, the current king, is the 33rd. β
"The root of the king's troubles is his only daughter, who I heard is quite a wild girl.
I guess they're still shouting in the castle and saying something like 'I want to go to the festival too.'" β
Erxiao hooked the corners of his mouth:
"Brothers, I can already guess the plot that follows."
"I've guessed the rest of the story."
"It is estimated that the princess ran out to secretly participate in the celebration, and then met our protagonist, fell in love, and finally broke through the blockade of her father."
"So far, I haven't found anything brilliant about the Chrono Key, so let's take a look."
Judging from the information you have learned so far, it is indeed easy to make such an inference.
However, Erxiao is not idle here.
Directly broke into every accessible room in Peace Town, and began a special search.
In the village chief's house, there is a complete game guide, and Erxiao is too lazy to go through it here, so he skips it directly.
The owner of one of the prop shops left a reminder that they were now selling goods in Lane Square.
In the hotel, you can spend money to stay to restore all the magic of life, and you can also spend ten yuan to invite the young lady who plays the piano to play a song, which is very beautiful.
After looking around, Erxiao found nothing, which undoubtedly discouraged her.
However, in a room on the second floor of the hotel, there was an item called "Boxes Passed Down from Generations", which made everyone's eyes shine.
This thing can't be opened yet, Er Xiao took out a pen and paper here:
"Let's record it first, on the second floor of the Peace Town Hotel, there is a treasure chest.
I think I can't open it until I get something in the future. β
"I didn't find anything in Heping Town, and the only reward was the 200 yuan given by Gina, can you believe it?
Sure enough, only my mother is good in the world. β
Er Xiao, who left Heping Town and came to the big map, complained.
"That's reasonable, okay, in the previous RPG games, the protagonist casually broke into someone else's house, and rummaged through other people's homes and turned over the cabinets and cabinets of others, and there was no reaction at all.
Now this design is pretty good. β
"It's just a game, why do you care so much about reasonableness?"
"Don't fix those useless things, hurry up and go to Luca's house to find a childhood friend to go to the celebration together."
Luca's home actually has a single piece of territory on the map, which can be said to be very handsome.
Crono arrives here and discovers that Luca is not at home.
At the suggestion of her mother-in-law, Lala, Luca seems to have gone to the square with her father Taban to show off her latest invention.
There was no nonsense here at Erxiao, and he went straight to Linei Square.
The huge Rinai Bell stands in the center of the square, and the square is decorated with a festive atmosphere.
The square is surrounded by people from all over the kingdom who come to participate in the festival, as well as various vendors selling items.
Haunted houses, running competitions, drinking competitions, dancing competitions, fighting robots.
A variety of mini-games, and you can get silver points for winning.
The usefulness of Silver Points is yet to be discovered, but it is known to be used to participate in the Haunted House next to it.
"Young man, today is the millennium celebration of the kingdom, so have a good time."
"Luca is working on something strange with Taban again, hoping it doesn't explode like it used to."
"Hundreds of years ago, there was a rather fierce battle with the Demon King Army, and if that battle was lost, there would be no way to hold such a celebration now."
Another wave of information was successfully collected, and here on the second map inside the RinΓ© Plaza, the plot finally began to have some twists and turns.
A blonde girl with a ponytail hurriedly bumped into Crono, who came here.
A pendant encrusted with blue gems fell off the girl's neck and fell aside.
"It's coming, it's coming, it's a classic hit."
"Did you do it intentionally or accidentally?"
"Touch the porcelain, right?"
The girl relented on the ground for a while, ignoring her pain, and hurried to Crono's side, who had been knocked to the ground.
Here, the camera uses an upward perspective.
A lovely delicate face flashed with big eyes, and looked at the camera with some panic:
"Yes, I'm sorry! You okay? β
"It's okay, how could we be okay."
"If the young lady doesn't kiss and hug me, I won't get up."
"Disgusting, huh?"
When Kronor woke up, the girl suddenly thought of something.
Keep touching your hands around your collarbone:
"Oh no! The pendant is missing, is it lost? β
The game also passed the CG part here, and entered the interface of the player's free control.
And Erxiao, who had already seen where Xiang Pendant had fallen, naturally found Xiang Pendant quickly.
"It's not a plot here.,It's a free choice for players to find this necklace.,It looks like there should be a plot branch here.γ
"Give it first, save a file, and then come to see the plot that you don't give."
Erxiao's side also made a decision quickly.
After returning the pendant to the girl, the girl expressed her gratitude to Crono.
And showed that he was here to attend the celebration, and that it was too boring to be alone, whether Cronor would he like to go shopping with her.
"This should be the princess."
"It's really a 'royal road' plot."
Everyone also started the process of complaining.
The so-called royal road, in fact, can also be said to be old-fashioned.
Anyway, it's the hero who saves the beauty, and the prince who saves the princess.
It's not that this plot is bad, but everyone has long been aesthetically fatigued.
But so far, the name of the game "Key to Chrono" has not had any performance in the game, and everyone is still patient and continues to look down.
The girl invited, how could she refuse this?
After the two sides exchanged names, there was an extra follower behind Krono.
At this moment, the road to the upper part has not yet been opened, and Er Xiao can only control Kronor to continue to wander around the entire square.
Help the little girl find the cat and fight Gonzalez, a two-legged robot developed by Luca, on the left side of the square.
"This robot doesn't look like something that can be developed under this worldview, does it?
What kind of demon is Luca? β
"In short, it's off the charts."
"Anyway, this game turned out to be a real-time battle, so isn't that a certain requirement for the opponent's speed."
It's kind of a little plot or two in the game.
Until talking to a little girl in the square, I get a hint like "Luca's invention is complete, in the deepest part of the square".
The plot is finally moving forward.
Kronor led Mar to the deepest part of the square.
In front of me, there are two mechanical buildings that are obviously not in line with the technology of this era, and from the outside, they look like two pavilions.
Watching the lively people surround the place, and a few loud sounds can be heard from time to time.
At a glance, the players saw the figure standing on the machine at the moment, tapping with the wrench in their hands.
Wearing a small green hat, she is dressed in lean clothes all over her body, and various tool bags pinned to her waist show her professionalism.
"Come on, come on, take a look, this is the greatest invention of this century, the Superdimensional Matter Teleportation Machine No. 1!"
The stout man standing in front of the crowd was shouting hard.
He was Luca's father, Taban.
As he spoke, Taban raised his right hand and pointed at one of the machines:
"To put it simply, if you stand on one side, you'll be transported to a dreamlike device on the other side!
The one who invented this was my clever and talented daughter, Luca! β
"I know this, Terraria's portal!"
"God's special teleporter, but in this case, such outrageous technology makes sense."
"Indeed, Terra can have a teleporter, why can't the Chrono Key be high-tech."
Luca heard her father's boast and immediately turned around and pushed the huge black-rimmed glasses on her face, revealing a confident smile.
"Glasses, I can."
"My evaluation is not as good as Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"The princess is pure and silly and sweet, I choose a genius inventor like Luca."
"You really got it, huh?"
After talking to Luca, Luca said that no one wants to come up and try this portal, and wants us to challenge it.
"Send! I feel like something is going to go wrong. β
"Indeed, this teleportation machine should malfunction and start a journey beyond time and space."
"It's over, Crono is a guinea pig."
Childhood sweetheart's request, of course, Kronaud will not refuse.
I saw him standing on the side of the portal, and he activated the device with Luca's side, loading energy.
In just a short period of time, with a flash of blue light, Crono had successfully arrived on the other side of the teleporter.
"Who just said something was going to happen? Isn't this not hyper-expanded? β
These guys who are blind chickens guessing the follow-up plot, Er Xiao has long seen that they are not pleasing to the eye, so can they be ruthless now?
"Did it really work? This is rare......
Ahem, Luca's invention will definitely succeed! β
Taban directly said what he said in his heart, which also made everyone smile.
Looking at it this way, Luca's invention doesn't always succeed.
However, then, when Mar said the phrase "It's so funny, I'm going to play it too", everyone knew that if nothing else, there should be an accident.
Things turned out to be as everyone expected.
When Mar stood on the portal, and when Luca started the machine, the pendant on Luca's chest suddenly emitted a dazzling blue light.
A huge dream void that seemed to devour everything opened up from under Mal's body for no reason.
In the blink of an eye, without anyone having time to react, Maar had completely disappeared into this space.
It's just that in the same place, the pendant that induces all the abnormalities is left behind.
Taban realized that something was wrong, and as an elder, he quickly reacted.
forcibly squeezed out a smile and shouted loudly in the amazement of the onlookers:
"As you can see! The shadows are gone! That's the end of today's show!
Thank you, thank you. β
The flow of people began to disperse slowly, and everyone's faces seemed to be surprised to see something new, and it would become a topic of conversation after dinner.
Seeing that only himself, his daughter and Kronor were left at the scene, Taban's face sank completely:
"Hey, Luca, what the hell is going on?
How's that girl? β
Luca bowed her head slightly, her face was calm and calm, and she thought lightly:
"The way that girl disappeared is not the way that the portal teleported to disappear.
The distorted point of that space......
Maybe Xiang Pendant reacted to something......
Or something else......"
Compared with Taban's impatience, Luca's composure can't help but make people feel good.
Reason is a rare trait.
But at this moment, our protagonist Kronor is directly reckless.
He picked up the pendant left by Mar and stood on the portal.
Taban immediately understood Kronoh's thoughts, and showed a look of admiration:
"Oh! Are you going to chase her, Crono, you're such a man! β
Luca took a deep breath:
"I don't know what will be in the space, but it seems that there is no other way.
The pendant is the key, Crono, hold it tightly, the same thing will definitely happen just now. β
Taban and Luka turned on the switch again.
In this moment, Crono's bravery, Luca's sanity, Taban's anxiety about the girl who disappeared under her daughter's invention.
When the conveyor was activated, a flash of energy was converging.
Kronor's body submerged into the space node and disappeared without a trace!
Only Luca was left to shout anxiously at the end:
"I'll go to you when I find out why.
Please! Crono! β
"Dusk!"
"The music and performances in this section are full, although I already know what the follow-up plot is, but the arc light emanating from the characters is really moving.
Especially the protagonist Crono, who didn't say a word, just clenched his necklace and stood firmly on the portal, the moment he was powdered! β
"Travel back in time and save the princess!"
Everyone was excited.
In front of me, in the chaotic and dreamy space-time tunnel, the picture flashed, and the protagonist Crono came to a mountain forest.
Where is this? Where is Maar? (End of chapter)
