September 203, 10 New Imperial Calendar

It's been a few days since the last major update.

The score of "Xianyuan" slowly climbed to six points, because of a video, many new players flooded into the game.The players in the game and the players on the forum started a heated debate about whether "Xianyuan" is a good game. The per capita arena score is more than 3000, the top few in the rankings, game masters, professional players, regardless of whether this is true or not, They type really fast.

Watching them debate is fun, and it's what I use to pass the time when I'm bored.But no matter what the forum said, the pressure on the game server was even greater, and Xianhua Village was still crowded.I used to be able to stand on the cliff and watch the fun, but now it's my turn to watch the excitement.

"Xianyuan" has sandbox elements, and the player's behavior will affect the world and promote the development of the game plot. After the boss was defeated, the bandit camp was also cleared, and players could freely enter and exit Xianhua Village—although outside of Xianhua Village, there were all more dangerous monsters.In other words, players are free to go to Peach Blossom Cliff, and come here to learn how to fly with the sword.

If a hidden world master can be seen casually by everyone, then it is not a real hidden world master.

I can finally feel Zhao Mao's pain a little bit. Players who come to learn how to fly with swords or guns are already counted, and there are fans and so on... I suddenly feel that this is a good time for the mall to sell mounts.

"Xianyuan" pursues authenticity, so flying is also really flying.

So the piled up corpses of the players who fell to death in front of me every day are comparable to the big scene of fighting the boss. Groups of players jumped off the cliff and then rushed back from the resurrection point. It looked like a strange scene——I Obviously underestimating the human instinct to fear heights.If someone says he is not afraid of heights, how about standing on a cliff and jumping down without any protective measures?

Even so, bro, don't hug my leg and cry when you're shaking with fright.You are a dignified nine-foot monk who bleeds, sweats and does not shed tears. If you cry any more, I will throw you down.

Also, Li Pilu left.

He asked if I wanted to leave, maybe he meant it.Although I am tired of seeing the scenery of Peach Blossom Cliff, I never thought about leaving Xianhua Village.The simplest question is, if I leave, who will teach the player to fly with the sword.

After all, I am a functional NPC, which is much more important than the non-functional NPC used to fill the environment... Is it not good to say that other NPCs are not good, but there is indeed a chain of discrimination between NPCs.

Not only discrimination, but also introversion.

----

"Use your aura to control your mount." Jiang Sheng pointed to the fan in the player's hand and said, "Put your attention on this."

The player held the fan and asked doubtfully, "Can this thing also take me flying?"

As a high-level NPC, Jiang Sheng naturally answers all questions, although he can answer irrelevant questions: "Yes, in essence, you are using spiritual power..."

"It's not scientific." The player argued.

But this is a game of cultivating immortals... Jiang Sheng thought blankly, should I tell you that what flies up is just a string of codes, which are your modeling, ruthless and cold zeros and ones.

While chattering and arguing about the rationality of Yujian flying, the players slowly backed away.Jiang Sheng saw the fear in his eyes, patted him on the shoulder, and said sincerely: "Believe in yourself."

The player is then gently pushed and falls vertically from the edge of the cliff.In a hurry, he couldn't focus on his "mount" at all, and the screaming stopped abruptly.Jiang Sheng took a look and said, "Next."

The next player took off his equipment, and before Jiang Sheng could say anything, he closed his eyes and jumped down.

"For the Empire!—Ahhhh!"

Jiang Sheng: "..." At least courageous.

"Wow, the undercover agent of "Savior of the World", get him out quickly!" The other players who heard this cry shouted.

"There is an undercover agent from "Savior of the World"!"

"Who doesn't come from the empire, everyone is from the empire!"

"Brother, which server are you in?"

The direction gradually became strange. The players chatted while jumping off the cliff, and reached a strange harmonious scene amidst the screams.

Jiang Sheng had already heard about the old-school online game next door, and he suddenly heard a player say, "The flight of Yujian here is a bit different from the flying technique next door."

"The degree of freedom is higher here. After using the flying technique next door, the flight trajectory is fixed. In "Xianyuan", you can fly however you want." Another player said: "It is more difficult to adapt, but learning Afterwards, it’s still fun.”

"And the NPC next door who teaches flying is not so handsome."

"That's an old man..."

"Do I have to use weapons to fly?" The player in front of me asked seriously: "Can't I fly with these wings? Speaking of which, wings are more reasonable."

Jiang Sheng turned his head, first his eyes were squinted by the sparkling special effects, and then he saw an old acquaintance.

Xi Milu stood with the Doomsday Glory with a knife on his back. Because he participated in the battle with the boss Li Pilu, he obtained the first-grade Foundation Establishment Pill and became a Foundation Establishment Stage monk without any problems.He soon came to learn Yujian flying with the top master, and he learned it after running a few times to the resurrection point.

But the doomsday glory has been procrastinating, until now to learn, and must pull Similu.

Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you use wings or anything else, they are all the same height."

When Doomsday Glory heard the word "high", he turned his head stiffly and said to Simi Lu, "I won't learn it..."

Xi Milu snorted: "If you can't fly, you can't join the sect. The four sects are far away from here. Do you want to go there?"

"Can't you walk over..." Doomsday Glory said slowly, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "Is there any flying gift bag in the mall?! Buy it and you can fly right away."

Nothing can be solved with money.

Jiang Sheng cut off her thoughts: "There is no such crooked way."

Doomsday Glory wanted to run away immediately. For her, problems that couldn't be solved with money were all big problems.

Jiang Sheng pressed her shoulder: "Learn to control your spiritual power..." Doomsday Glory always felt that there was an inexplicable kindness in his tone. She looked up and was bewitched by the artist's elaborate modeling. I took a step forward without knowing it, and the next second was a frightening feeling of falling.

Doomsday Glory didn't even yell, and stared stupidly at the ground that was getting closer and closer.She was stiff all over, and fear completely swept away all her thoughts. At this moment, a familiar figure suddenly appeared beside her. Xi Milu stepped on the knife and reached out to hug her.

Doomsday Glory: "...!"

The two fell to the ground at the same time, and then their blood bars were emptied, and they both fell to death.

Standing on the edge of the cliff, Jiang Sheng raised his eyebrows when he saw this scene.

Many players were amazed: "Can you still play like this?!"

Although both of them fell to their deaths, they can indeed fly together, and the degree of freedom is beyond the imagination of the players.They soon exploded with greater enthusiasm, formed a team on the spot and jumped down together.For a while, there were many players hugging and jumping off the cliff on Peach Blossom Cliff. The scene seemed to be a collective death for love.Even those who were lucky enough to fly could easily collide with other players in the air.

It is not surprising that this group of players does anything, so don't challenge the imagination and action of millions of players with a few planning brains.

Jiang Sheng thought that he would not see the glory of doomsday in a short time, but he didn't expect them to come back soon.

Seeing the grand occasion of both of them dying for love, Xi Milu couldn't help but sigh: "What are you doing, imitating lemmings?"

Glory of Doom: "What are lemmings?"

"A very cute creature on the ancient earth, but it didn't survive the interstellar migration." Xi Milu explained.

Doomsday Glory was not interested in lemmings, so she ran up to Jiang Sheng and mustered up her courage to say, "Let's do it again."

There seemed to be some changes in her mentality... Jiang Sheng taught her again, and Doomsday Glory felt that he had learned it, and jumped down with his eyes closed.

After a while, Jiang Sheng looked at the corpse under the cliff and shook his head slightly.

Although the mentality has changed, the problem of fear of heights has not really been solved.

Si Milu squatted on the edge of the cliff, belatedly said: "She is afraid of heights."

Jiang Sheng wondered if you knew, Xi Milu scratched his head: "But if you can't fly, you can't join the sect. Haven't you considered the needs of people who are afraid of heights?"

Jiang Sheng: I never thought that anyone would be afraid of heights in the game.

Similu had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly said: "If it's just to join the sect, she can actually spend money to hire a player to take her flying."

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help admiring that he could actually use the logic of doomsday glory to think about problems!

When it comes to joining the sect, the players around have joined the topic one after another.

"Have you not successfully joined the sect yet? If you have, you must go to the forum and say it."

"Because you have to learn to fly first. This is quite difficult, and most of them are stuck at this step."

"Brothers, which sect do you want to join?"

"Shuiyue Pavilion is the only nanny sect. There must be many girls. I'll go to Shuiyue Pavilion, hehe."

"Qianshanmen uses a sword, it's very handsome to use a sword!"

"But the output of Qianshanmen seems to be quite low. Would anyone like a sect that looks handsome but has a low output?"

"Of course I like it! Don't you like handsome ones?"

Choosing a school is currently the hottest topic in "Xianyuan". According to official materials and promotional videos, each school has its own emphasis. , Shurazong used the knife to move flexibly and hit ten, and Qianshanmen used the sword move to be particularly handsome.

Not only the players are discussing, but the NPC channel is also chatting in full swing.

[Lord of Shuiyue Pavilion] Zhou Suran: I heard that the server is under too much pressure recently, and the upper level is planning to downgrade the computing power of some NPCs.

[Master of Qianshan Gate] Murong Yunying: Downgrade? !By what standard?

[Shuiyue Pavilion Master] Zhou Suran: It seems to be calculated according to the player's activity level. NPCs with little contact with players will be reduced in computing power and reduce server pressure.

Reducing the computing power will make an NPC with independent thinking only mechanical actions. For NPCs like Jiang Sheng, it is a terrible punishment. The next step is to erase the code and disappear completely.

[Island Master of Longevity Island] Ye Bai: In this case, all of your sects must work hard to recruit students, otherwise which sect has fewer players, it will be downgraded.

Jiang Sheng watched the NPC channel silently, look, this is rolled up.
