But dreams spread through infection have little defense.

Radiant light can easily unify insects through infection, completely losing their intelligence and thinking ability.

They wreak havoc in every corner of Hallownest, spreading plague.

Eventually, the White King attempts to seal the Radiant with a container.

He made contact with the terrifying area at the bottom of the Hallownest.

In that lifeless abyss, there is a substance that is the opposite of light, the void.

The void is chaotic and distorted, but it can devour the light and resist the plague of dreams spread by the radiant light.

At this point, the White King used many creations born by himself and his wife to plunge into the abyss and grow up in the void.

And let these many creatures fight each other in the void, and finally step on the bones of ten thousand insects, an heir whose mind and soul are void and empty, and is chosen by the White King.

Nicknamed the 'Hollow Knight', he trained it to its most perfect form, and then used it as a vessel to go to the Divine Abode to seal the radiant light.

After a fierce battle that made the entire Hallownest tremble.

With the warping power of the void, the Hollow Knight successfully sealed the radiant.

Just in case, the White King also canonized three powerful Zerg leaders as Dream Keepers, guarding the container of the 'Hollow Knight'.

I thought that the entire Hallownest would return to peace and prosperity.

But the Hollow Knight gradually developed a fatherly affection for the White King as he received his training.

With the container of feelings, it is no longer pure.

The power of the radiant continued to erode the Hollow Knight in the dream until the vessel shattered.

The power of the dream infection leaks out, and the plague once again engulfs the entire Hallownest.

The White King, who had nothing to do, finally abandoned this once prosperous land, moved the entire palace with him, and completely disappeared from the sight of the people of the Holy Nest.

Without the protection of the gods, a deadly plague quickly swept through, eroding the minds of almost the entire underworld bugs.

They became mad and cruel, with nothing but killing and destruction in their eyes.

The kingdom has finally fallen, leaving only a ruin and countless Nest people infected by the plague.

And, in this almost desperate moment of darkness.

A young knight who was also made as a container, but was abandoned due to his defects, and finally crawled out of the abyss of the bones of ten thousand insects through his tenacity.

After traveling outside the Hallownest for a long time, holding the old bone nail in his hand, he became a qualified warrior.

In the dark, it seems to have been guided by the Hollow Knight, a predecessor who has fallen into the end of the crossbow.

Returning from a trip outside the Hallownest.

Staring into the ruins of a once-prosperous kingdom beyond.

Grasp the bone nail in your hand and jump.

Step into the ruins of Hallownest.

And that's where the game begins!

……

“…… This is the plot of the Hollow Knight. In the popular post of the week on the well-known player forum NAA.

A well-known game reviewer with the ID name 'Wangsi Leaves the North', after trying out the Hollow Knight, wrote an article "To the Ninth Art in My Heart - On the Hollow Knight"

Since the article is almost comprehensive and has no dead ends, the game is analyzed from multiple angles in detail.

It also instantly triggered a warm response from the majority of players.

He continued to write in the article.

"The setting of the background worldview must be huge, and what is even more precious is that this worldview gives us a lot of imagination."

"Just imagine, a group of insects that live under our feet all day long, their world will also have dynastic changes, there will also be power staggering, and there will also be wars and battles. There will also be beings like the Hollow Knights, who sacrifice themselves to save Hallownest. Isn't that wonderful? It's a very interesting way to get started. ”

"However, if you look at the plot, it is still a little thin, but the engraved designer used a large number of rich game details to embellish the colorful internal world for this seemingly thin world view."

"Every NPC that appears in this game, every boss, and even the small monster that can be hacked to death at your fingertips, are all shining with the entire Hallownest, and it is the bits and pieces that unfold around them that build a rich color for the entire Hallownest! It's not like traditional action games, in order to design a monster that can be killed and can be fun to fight, and to design monsters. Almost everything in "Hollow" has its meaning to exist. ”

"At the beginning of the game, the old mayor we met seemed to be just a beginner's guide to where to go, and there was no more of it."

"But in the middle and late stages of the game, when you get the Dream Nail to check the inner thoughts of the bugs, you will find that the carver has also made a story for the old mayor, who once had a friend who was buried in a grave not far away, so the old mayor is reluctant to leave, and has been holding on to the dilapidated ruins."

"And when the little knight walks all the way, he encounters all kinds of signs, which seem to be just guiding us players, what to do next, and players can also cut down these signs at will, just like in other games, they can cut the grass on the ground with their hands, and the next time they are refreshed, these signs will be renovated again, you think this is just a pure setting, just to avoid players getting lost. But actually, the engraver designer also designed a little story for this street sign, there will be a maintenance bug in the Hallownest, who will be responsible for repairing these signs, and whenever the player breaks it, it will quickly go to repair it, and if the player accidentally kills it, then congratulations, you may be eager to sit up and slap yourself at half past three tonight. ”

"At this time, you will find that the leftmost door in the town is opened, you can enter freely, and there is also a diary written about the maintenance bug in the house, it will record its daily mood in the diary, it is a very optimistic and positive little bug, it has a crush and even participates in the dance, it also mentions you in the diary, it says that it does not hate you who always break the street signs, because of your appearance, it gives it the motivation to keep fixing those cute street signs until you kill it, Its diary will stop serializing. ”

"If you carefully carpet explore the City of Tears, you will come across a butterfly singer with a good singing voice, but she is already dead at this time, only in a state of soul, and she will tell you that she was poisoned by eating rotten food because the White King blocked the City of Tears in order to defend against the radiant light, and after there was no food supply, she was hungry and ate rotten food. But when you think about it, it's scary. In the City of Tears, we will encounter a kind of noble worm, they don't have much combat power, they can be easily solved, and killing them can explode a lot of gold coins. They have a very distinctive feature, that is, they have a fat head and big ears, and their round body is even very difficult to walk. ”

"Although the engraver did not depict the battle between the Holy Hallownest and the Radiant Lights head-on, from this side detail, it is very vivid that people can make up the scene of the whole city on alert and in chaos at that time, on one side there are civilians who don't even have food, and on the other hand, there are nobles with fat heads and big ears, who are drunk and dreaming of death all day long, which is not an extreme irony."

"There is also one of the optimistic five knights of the kingdom, Fandago, different from the depression everywhere under this desolate country, when you fight it, you can always hear its cheerful laughter, as if the whole body is full of energy, but when you defeat it, use the Dream Nail to enter its dream, but you will find that its inner world is very depressed, it misses its other four comrades-in-arms very much, but those comrades-in-arms all died to protect the Holy Nest, and in the end it was left to live alone in this world, which is embarrassing."

"Many players will encounter the boss fake knight in the first level, but after they are killed, they will find that this armor is occupied by a maggot at the bottom of the Nest food chain, with the lowest status. In fact, the owner of this powerful armor is one of the five knights. But the lowest maggot, in order to save her companion from the plague, took advantage of the knight's drunkenness and robbed him of his armor. It's a pity that the maggot's strength is not worthy of this armor, and she can't protect her companions in the end. ”

"And the banker who runs away if he rolls up the player's money, the collector who collects bugs, the swordsman who guards the seal mask, and the wasp who is the offspring of the beast...... There are too many, many, and many details, all hidden in this game, constantly enriching the thin plot. ”

"Every detail makes you feel beyond the mechanical feeling of traditional action games, you feel that every place and every link is designed, natural and extremely exquisite, including character building, almost no lines but people are impressed by most of the characters, this is a ninth work of art that I can't get enough of!"

"Finally, let me conclude this game review post with my favorite line from Hollow."

"I have forgotten all the tragedies, and therefore everything I see is a miracle!"

"Hollow Knight is also a miracle in the history of action games! I am also very grateful to Designer Engraving for allowing me to taste such a delicacy and his talent continues to shine! I'm a game reviewer - Wangsi Libeici, let's look forward to the next game from Ready Player One! ”

……

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

This all-encompassing review post brings out almost all the attractive advantages of "Hollow".

On the day of posting, enthusiastic players hit the top of the hot list, and they are still retweeting and sharing it with their friends.

It has also made more and more players aware of the subtlety of this game.

It's not just about its excellent hitting feel, rich map exploration, and cool points that are constantly growing and getting stronger.

There are also details that almost blend in with the background!

Even Ke Jin, who has been reluctant to look at the backstage flow in the past few days, inadvertently swiped this post.

Frightened, he quickly clicked on the system and looked at the background flow.

$18,867,435

As of today, "Hollow" has been on the shelves for a week.

Moreover, when the game is generally put on the shelves, the turnover in the first week is the highest, and the subsequent will slowly transform into a thin water and long flow mode.

According to this trend, it was only 18 million in the first week.

The requirement of the system is that the turnover within the first month of listing is less than 100 million.

Rushing to the death will not achieve expectations.

"Whew......" Ke Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, the unexpected was reassuring.

With the collection of Wang Laoju's various famous scenes, the first shot of the left wheel was played.

Then he was accompanied by this 'North Gift' Nagatlin who swept the second round.

The hollow has been raised to an extremely high heat.

Although it is certainly not as outrageous as the national hot play.

But at least more than seventy percent of players who are keen on action, plus a small number of passers-by who come to visit, intermittently enter the pit to try the game.

Judging from the data fed back from the background, the millions of trials of regular tasks have already been achieved, and even because of the free games, it has exceeded nearly 5 million people.

If this is a game with a reasonable fee system, Ke Jin estimates that it will have already rushed out of 100 million by now.

You must know that the original price of the hollow on the earth was only 58 yuan, not counting all kinds of discounts and learning versions, which have already made a lot of money for this studio one after another.

What's more, in the Blue Star, who has never seen 'Metroidvania-like' and mildly 'soul-like'.

There will only be one end of being blown up by Krypton.

"Players with normal experience don't need krypton, and players who want to challenge high difficulty can't make a few dollars to die, not to mention that as I expected, the group of players who like to be abused is still a minority after all, and normal people download it and play it for free."

"Wuhu, God help me!" Ke Jin couldn't help but feel happy, and put his heart back in his stomach.

Wang Laoju and Bei Ci were so fierce in the first two shots, and the heat of such an explosion in the game circle, they couldn't lift the flowing water.

Who fired this third shot?

Just start with this dreamy day, don't say let's set up a flag.

I'm a master of carving, and I've never liked to set up flags.

It's just that you big anchors and big reviewers can't bring headwinds.

I don't know where a spark came out of nowhere, and I was burned for it?

Watt doesn't believe it!

————

Night.

Little Gray Live Room.

As soon as the broadcast started, the popularity instantly soared to 300,000!

As a rookie anchor who has only been on the air for less than a week.

This record is not without dazzling.

When Ash is not broadcasting, he is a player who likes to challenge all kinds of high difficulty.

And I have a very good impression of the designer Kejin.

He designed Iwanna to give him the possibility to push the envelope.

Ash has always enjoyed this hearty sense of victory after overcoming suffering.

However, due to the particularity of Iwanna's torture, in the world where the pressure and rhythm of Blue Star are full, the survival soil is a little embarrassing.

Other manufacturers don't even want to copy.

Even for a long time, he couldn't find a game that suited his heart.

And just last week.

Ready to play Player One has finally released their second torment title, Hollow Knight!

The happy little gray downloaded it as soon as possible, and tried the live trial for the first time.

Originally, I just wanted to simply be in the live broadcast room to see if I could find a fan, and I could exchange and exchange experiences together when I went back.

After all, the path of suffering is too lonely.

The result is who thinks.

My live broadcast room suddenly exploded!

I've never been in contact with this type of player, and because of the number one player, a company with a good reputation.

They all gathered in the major live broadcast rooms to watch the live broadcast of "Hollow" for the first time.

Maybe it's because my operation is a little better.

He found that everyone liked to see his elegant, handsome and comfortable style of play.

Many players even used his live broadcast room as a decompression channel to relax their nerves.

was lucky enough to get a wave of promotions from Wang Laoju's boss, which made people feel more popular.

The next road to increasing fans will be very easy.

From time to time, it appears in popular live channels to attract more players to come and decompress.

So much so that in just one week, such a gratifying result was obtained.

Just for the gift reward, I got more than 100,000 yuan.

The future is bright.

This made him a poor buddy player, very flattered.

Ash is a man who knows how to repay his kindness.

He knew that he could get to where he is today, and his small talent for operation was only a secondary factor.

More importantly, he is still the number one player, and it is the engraver designer who gave him such a chance to get ahead.

If you don't have Hollow Knight, you're nothing.

As the saying goes, draught does not forget the person who digs the well.

Xiao Ash, who has just made a wave of rewards and withdrawals, thinks that it is time for him to repay a wave of designers.

He decided to leave a small tens of thousands of dollars enough to live on his own.

Then take out 100,000 yuan to hold a "Hollow Knight" racing challenge!

Let more players know the unique charm of this torture action game, and let more players know "Hollow Knight", Ready Player One, and Kejin, these names can be called miracles!

He had already figured out the rules.

Players who participate in the competition will need to purchase entry.

And the money for this admission qualification, he doesn't want a penny, all of it goes to the number one player.

The right to repay the favor with a wave of ruthlessness!

How to do it, it's also very simple.

The competition is divided into four levels of difficulty: Entry, Boss, High Player, and Platinum

corresponds to the four-tier krypton gift pack in "Hollow".

Participating players must purchase the corresponding gift package to enter, and then sign up in their own hands, and then unify the way of live broadcast, for the whole water friends to start a fierce competition, and as the referee group, use the screen plug-in, all the participating live broadcast rooms are like surveillance cameras, all displayed in their own live broadcast rooms, and they can click on any live broadcast room at any time for OB.

You can supervise yourself, and in the live broadcast room of the participating players, water friends can also help supervise to prevent someone from cheating.

Then, everyone shared the cash prize of 100,000 yuan.

Even the top 10 at the entry level can get a cash red envelope of 1,000 yuan.

To be honest, it's quite generous.

Xiao Ash couldn't help but be complacent about his decision.

First, it is a good thing to be able to pull another wave of popularity for yourself.

Second, maybe he can be seen by the carver designer he has admired for a long time.

He would be very happy to see so many players working hard to challenge his difficult games, right?

Thinking of this, Xiao Ash turned on the camera in the live broadcast room, and a green face appeared in front of the water friend.

He coughed lightly and smiled shyly.

"Ahem, good evening everyone, today I announce something......"

it! This book is another leader......

Thank you very much to the leader of the alliance of the Spirited Away!!

Benpu is really flattered to be able to get the support of so many bigwigs.

There is nothing to repay, but to repay silently!

At present, I still owe Chihiro a chapter to the leader of the alliance (forgive me for a league leader who can only add one more, it's not that I'm floating, it's because I have a lot of words in a chapter...... I have to add more to the monthly pass, but I really can't afford it...... Please forgive me! ）

Thanks again for your support! Kowtow to the big guy!!

Bang bang!!
