Forced to play Shura Field in a Western Fantasy game

There are densely packed and neatly arranged folders, and every one of them will be opened and there will be another page full of independent files. Yu Yuan just opened one of them and browsed it for a while, and he knew exactly what it was.

This is the draft of the game design left by him before he chose to hibernate 70 years ago.

The name of the first folder looks like an ancient game, as expected, after clicking on the content inside, each file is as large as the general world view setting, as small as the setting of a certain NPC. There were drafts named after various games, and he even saw one that seemed to be a novel he tried to write back then.

...Although the memory is indeed missing, this does not prevent him from realizing that these are his own black history.

The doctor told him that if his brain disease was not treated in time 70 years ago, or could not be treated, the biggest impact would be memory and intellectual problems. Fortunately, although the memory may be a little less, at least it is not mentally handicapped.

Thinking about it this way, he simply transferred a few documents from it to read, some of which were equipped with illustrations and sketches of characters that should have been drawn by himself, and so on. Maybe it was worth a little 70 years ago, but from the current perspective It is said that there is not much reference value in all likelihood, and the U disk was pulled out after a while.

Perhaps because there are too many files, he didn't notice that there was a sub-file in the directory that he missed. The file name is very concise and clear, summarizing the attributes of this game project.

——Western Fantasy RPG "Journey to the Fantasy World" planning draft

The seemingly unremarkable documents are submerged in many planning drafts that are also in the style of Western Fantasy games.

Not long after the zombie game incident, Mr. Lu occasionally joined their four-black team, perhaps because the image in the game was somewhat different from the reality, but there was no sense of distance that was unfamiliar in reality.

It's just that the technician Lin Ling suffers.

"You don't think there is anything wrong? Why does Mr. Lu keep playing games with you without doubting the reason?" Finally one day he couldn't help questioning Yu Yuan.

"...Didn't you say that Mr. Lu is also very approachable in the company?"

"That's not such an approachable method!" Lin Ling said: "Think about it, if Mr. Lu really plays games with every new employee, the company will go bankrupt sooner or later?! God knows, the first time I saw Mr. Lu Appearing in the team almost didn't scare me."

Yu Yuan was silent for a while.

Seems to make sense.

It's not that he hasn't asked Lu Mingyuan before, but the answer given by the other party is basically "I want to experience the game of my peers and feel the difference in our technology", and such words are obviously meant to be dealt with.

But this matter has not yet come to a conclusion, and time passed in a blink of an eye, and soon Yu Yuan had no time to participate in the short fixed game session every Sunday-the time for the architect's primary exam was coming.

From the first day when he signed up for the course, he has been conscientiously spending time in the holographic cabin until eleven or twelve o'clock every night. In addition, he himself has a little bit of "70-year-old foundation" that can be used, so the pass is basically guaranteed. matter.

The day of the exam was a Sunday, and the whole process went smoothly. Lin Ling also made an appointment with him early in the morning to bring his younger sister, Lin Yi, to have a small dinner that night. Passed the certificate.

During the dinner, for some reason, Yu Yuan suddenly thought of Lu Mingyuan.

He had mentioned to Mr. Lu about his exam by chance before, now that he got a good result, shouldn't he also tell him?

But when you think about it, it seems a bit weird...

Inexplicably, he struggled with this kind of thing for a while, but before he could come up with a result, Lin Ling, who was using the terminal device to scan the social circle, almost jumped three feet high, "Damn it, look!"

Lin Yi also followed suit, "What, brother, you almost startled me by making such a fuss."

Yu Yuan opened the link Lin Ling shared with him suspiciously, and after he clicked on it, a holographic projection game promotional video appeared.

The lifelike and wonderful game screen is limited to a square inch, but it can still feel like a shrunken microcosm.He looked at Lin Ling with some puzzlement, not understanding what this meant, and this didn't seem to be a scene in their company's game.

"Blazing Game Company's Western Fantasy holographic RPG is now publicizing the in-game real-scene video, and the internal beta will begin soon." Lin Ling looked very angry and took a sip of cold beer, "You don't know, this company is very disgusting People, ever since our company's "Huantu" became popular, he has been staring at it like a fly. You say that others follow suit in style and gameplay with similar low-end, but his family not only imitates, but also likes to attack Huantu overtly and covertly. , There have been espionage incidents, and in the early days, all kinds of black history of Mr. Lu were fabricated as attack points, but it is a pity that the games of our company are bad..."

Yu Yuan, who was a little curious, took advantage of the situation and asked a few questions. Lin Ling counted the things this company had done with his fingers. What I want to pay attention to is a matter about Mr. Lu.

"Mr. Lu admitted in the earliest interviews that his source of inspiration was an old semi-finished game in the era of computer games that had no chance to be released. Many players also regard this as a kind of nostalgia and a tribute to the predecessors of the game industry. and so on, but Blazing Company came out of nowhere at the time, holding a bunch of so-called "evidence" to say that the establishment of "Phantom Road" was plagiarized, and as a result, even the semi-finished old game couldn't run, what do you think it is? Plagiarism?"

"When "Phantom Road" was the hottest, this matter went to court. At that time, our company must have been sentenced to win, but barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes. Blaze is still jumping around. Following the popularity of "Fantasy", you see that this is another Western Fantasy hologram. During today's interview, what did they plan to say about "bringing players the industry's top experience and showing the real ninth art", fuck him Damn it, when we attacked our "Phantom Path", we often said it was 'a tribute to plagiarism and an insult to the existence of the Ninth Art', now I'm going to burn incense..."

The more Lin Ling talked, the more excited he became, especially the kind of person who is easy to get ahead after drinking a little wine. He looks like a die-hard veteran of Abyss Technology. He can't see others stepping on his company and game. When he is excited, he speaks quickly It's hard to say.

At this time, seeing that Yu Yuan seemed to be still thinking about whether or not this matter would come out, Lin Yi at the side showed a cunning face.

"My brother didn't mention a very important piece of black material. Blazing Huo has always had a big controversy—they hire real people to control NPCs."

This impact on Yu Yuan was not small, "Isn't it programming?"

No matter how real people look like, the NPCs in "Phantom Road" are just growth-type AIs. He thought that the whole industry was like this, but he didn't expect this kind of operation.

Lin Yi shook her finger, "No, although players think it's a rumor, many companies in the industry know that Zhihuo is the kind that supports real people to control NPCs. This is the biggest difference between him and your Abyss Technology."

"Real man control has advantages and disadvantages. The biggest advantage lies in its high controllability and relative stability. Unlike Abyss, which has to repair NPCs every now and then, and one person can control more than one at the same time after training, the cost will be much lower, and there is no need to Build a real world for those NPCs—because from the beginning, everyone is human, right?"

"But the disadvantages are also obvious. The most typical one is that it is not realistic enough. Acting is actually a very energy-consuming thing, not to mention living in the game for a long time, especially since the outside world has been rumoring that their company's work is very intensive. The most serious situation... may be that virtual reality is inseparable, causing mental damage. In fact, their company had similar news a few years ago, but the compensation was very high. After the family members at the time agreed, the news broke It was deliberately suppressed."

Under the popularization of science by Lin Yi, who also majored in game-related majors, not only his brother but also his parents, Yu Yuan learned for the first time how the NPCs in holographic games operate.

"The research on NPC in holographic games is divided into two directions. One is that human manipulation can reduce risks, especially at that time, some patients with physical problems can live in the holographic world through their brains, so this direction was quite popular at first. I agree—but then it gradually became a high-intensity requirement for normal actors, and the sense of realism became less and less realistic, so more people began to support another direction, which is the one you Mr. Lu chose— —Programming a 'real world'."

"Mr. Lu first became famous because the NPCs he wrote were 'real'. This ability is beyond the reach of many people. In the early days, he was often interviewed about how he did it. What did Mr. Lu say at the time... ...'Think of those NPCs as me'?"

......

Treat the NPC as yourself...

For some reason, Lin Yi's words kept echoing in his ears, and Yu Yuan was still thinking about it until he returned to his home after breaking up with the brothers and sisters of the Lin family.

At this time, there is a message reminder on the terminal.

[Lu Mingyuan]: The exam is today, right?I was busy during the day and forgot, I haven’t wished you a smooth pass ^_^

Reminiscent of what Lin Ling told him during the meal, Yu Yuan couldn't help but suspect that Mr. Lu was still busy today and Sunday. Could it be related to the new game released by Blazing Company?After all, according to what Lin Ling said, the blazing person seems to have also hinted at the name of Abyss Technology in the release interview. Does it mean that Abyss also needs to keep an eye on the other party's movements.

[Yu Yuan]: Yes, thank you, Mr. Lu, you should be able to get the official certificate next weekend, and then prepare for the registration of the intermediate exam

After replying to the message, Yu Yuan checked the homepage of the social networking site.Sure enough, one of the most popular articles in real time is #火火《幻想大陆》#, and then pull down to the bottom, and there is #火火沙头##幻想大陆内计算##许忧谈九九艺术#, etc. Wait, regardless of whether it is black or red as Lin Ling said, the discussion is indeed hot.

But just click on one of them, and you can see that there are topics discussed below that bring "Fantasy Journey" or Abyss Technology, and occasionally other games are included. All in all, every time a hot production is produced, it is somewhat similar to other types The game is a benchmark.

[Lu Mingyuan]: That's good

At this time, is Mr. Lu still in the company?Or do you deal with these things at home?

[Yu Yuan]: You also go to bed earlier, good night

As soon as the news was sent out, Yu Yuan himself felt so embarrassed that his toes were on his feet. Once he didn't meet in the game, talking to Mr. Lu would be somewhat stressful. After all, he was facing his boss, so he was afraid that there might be something wrong with the scale.

Fortunately, the other party didn't continue to say anything, otherwise, just how to reply after thinking would kill the remaining half of his brain cells tonight.

[Lu Mingyuan]: Good night, sweet dreams.

The night outside the window was still dark, and the night in Baidu was always so lively, as if those lights would never go out all night.

Yu Yuan stared out the window. The 70 years of lying in the hibernation warehouse passed like a snap of his fingers. The land under his feet was still the same, but the scenery on it changed from generation to generation, and the changes became faster and faster.

Maybe he has no related family members, but he is absolutely sure that there are already things he is nostalgic for in this era, and he is also very grateful that he has the luck to enter the abyss of technology.

After such a long time, he still doesn't change his nature. Maybe "Internet addiction boy" is something written in his DNA... But he is sure.

He was convinced that he still wanted to make games.

Not long after, Lin Ling sent Yu Yuan a special proposal as soon as he went to work one day.

"Test live broadcast?" Yu Yuan felt that this plan was a bit magical, "Can holographic games also be broadcast live?"

"Of course, players can freely choose to substitute their perspectives, just like the technicians in the background, and when the time comes, not only our company's internal testers will be invited, but also famous game broadcasters on Starnet. The horror dungeon that is open for the summer event is preheated in advance, and the advertising is very strong, you know? The testers have to choose, not everyone can go..."

Lin Lingxu babbled a lot, but when Yu Yuan heard that this was a horror game, he immediately lost the desire to participate in the selection—after all, he was a player who could be frightened into place when he played the VR version of "Silent Hill". The existence of being unable to move and going offline directly.

"Go, go, if I get selected, I can watch your live broadcast and take a day off."

Yu Yuan refused sternly, "I would rather play butter than play haunted horror games."

When he saw the game video next to him, he felt that something was wrong. Haunted horror and zombies are definitely not the same concept, and the types of scares are different, and this time it is not a necessary task in the work.

Lin Ling: "Bloggers are the ones who have tens of millions of fans on the star network. During the live broadcast, their own fans can also be cut from the perspective of testers. If you perform well, you will receive rewards. This event rewards Just split half and half with the platform, our company doesn't care about you, isn't it good to make some extra money?"

Yu Yuan was unmoved, it would be difficult to be selected based on his performance, and he still imagined that someone would tip him off?

Lin Ling took a deep breath, and then brought out his trump card, "The selected testers will have an extra subsidy this time, which is almost equal to half of your salary this month."

Yu Yuan: "..."

"Say it sooner next time."

Lin Ling: "I knew it."

In the next few days after get off work, Yu Yuan took Lin Ling to play several of the most famous horror games on the holographic platform, and the clearance efficiency became higher and higher.

Lin Ling, who started dreaming about ghosts pressing the bed, was devastated, "I finally understand, there are no ghosts in this world, only poor ghosts—no, you are not poor at all, what are you doing to make money like this? It's not enough to have ten girlfriends at the same time." You don’t need so much money, do you?! Or are you in debt? It shouldn’t be that I don’t see you charging money in the game, don’t be cheated?”

God knows that Yu Yuan plays zombie games, and he is still using the equipment given by the system, and he doesn't even receive the first charge reward.

"No," Yu Yuan denied his guess, "There is a reason, anyway, it's a bit special..."

"How special is it?" Lin Ling also knew that he came from the thawing center, and suddenly felt a chill on his back, with a bad feeling, "Your illness should be cured, right? No..."

He was suddenly a little worried, wouldn't the other party want to save money for the next freeze?Or should I continue to spend money on medical treatment?

The expression of the sympathetic Technician Lin became complicated in an instant.

"Damn, don't make wild guesses." Yu Yuan was almost speechless by him, "In short, you just think I'm short of money."

"Don't you?" Lin Ling was even more surprised now, "My friend, remember to find me if you have any difficulties. The times are different now, and the methods of deception are more complicated than yours. Don't be scammed by others on the Internet. Not long ago, my grandfather ..."

The "two generations" born almost 70 years apart, sometimes in Lin Ling's mind, Yu Yuan would look like an "elderly man" who just came out of the past era. It's just that this "elderly man" can play games abnormally, but he still endures it. I can't help but worry that the other party will be fooled by the new deception.

"Wake up, I'm not some old man targeted by scammers!"

"There are also Internet scams for newcomers..."

Lin Ling started to talk about popularizing the law again.

Maybe it’s hard work that pays off, the company’s internal live broadcast tester selection was really selected by Yu Yuan. After training in so many horror games, he can go offline without being scared when he sees a ghost. Can face to face tough.

It can be said that money makes people paralyze themselves.

Another tester was selected together, a man and a woman. At that time, the two of them will live broadcast the horror gameplay of "Fantasy Journey" that will be launched in summer with the star network anchor specially invited by the company. The built-in independent copy "Anderson The Life of a Family".

The seemingly ordinary name, who would have thought that it is actually a horror game.

Finally, the day came to start the live broadcast.

After entering the holographic cabin as usual, the eyes were completely dark, and it automatically entered the game preloading interface.

This time, Lin Ling is no longer connecting with him in the background, but he has been taught all the points that need to be paid attention to before. If someone chooses to watch the live broadcast from his perspective, or switch to God's perspective to choose him, they can also choose Interact with him on the barrage.

Yu Yuan took a deep breath, still feeling a little nervous. The nervousness this time was not because of the horror game, but because he had probably heard about it. The reason why Abyss Technology moved out the content of the closed beta in advance this time and used a lot of force The pre-heating promotion is also because of the impact of the same type of game that Blazing Company is about to open for testing last time, so it keeps developing more innovative gameplay in the game.

Maybe it's just that as one of the two testers, his thoughts are a little redundant. After all, the main popularity depends on the promotion and the invited big broadcasters on the star network, but if the tester performs well in the game... .Will it help the company's publicity?

On the day he passed the test and was selected, Mr. Lu even congratulated him when he came forward.

——If possible, he also wants to help the company as much as possible.

["Life of the Andersons" is loaded]

【Identity is being randomized...】

【Your identity is: Father Clay Taylor】

priest?

He has already passed the novice tutorial before, and he has learned that each identity has matching unique skills, so naturally there are differences in strength and weakness. The identity of priest seems to be of little use in his impression, although it is not the lowest level. , but the supporting skills... are hard to describe.

This can be regarded as the expiry of the European Emperor's experience card, and finally a bad luck - but it is impossible to quit and shake again, so we can only go down first.

Hopefully, his performance might be able to make up for the weakness of the priest himself.

[Background loading...]

[Duke Anderson lives in the capital city of the pope's country, and is a well-known nobleman. When the residents of the city mention him, they all praise this great nobleman. 】

【Our beloved Duke Anderson, he also has a happy family. He has a beautiful wife, Mrs. Anderson, and obedient and well-behaved children. Everything seems to be so beautiful——】

[But why... some people are actually dissatisfied with this kind of life, and still try to destroy it? 】

【Welcome to log in to the game】

When he opened his eyes again, Yu Yuan came to a new place.

He looked around, only to realize that it seemed to be a confessional in a... church?

The clothes on her body also changed accordingly. She wore a black gown with a cross hanging on her chest. She raised her hand and touched her hair. The black curly hair was preserved, and her appearance should not change.

A brand new page jumped out in front of my eyes.

[Player: Yu Yuan (beta tester)]

[The live broadcast has officially started, please follow the rules of the game and join your other teammates first~]

[Currently watching the live broadcast: 13, popularity value: 180]

I also know that it is colleagues who choose him.

There is a touch of relief.

The barrage interface can be turned off freely, especially when too many people can't see it, but for Yu Yuan, who doesn't see many people at all, it doesn't matter if it's always on.The few messages that drifted by occasionally showed that Lin Ling was speaking alone.

[Damn, I thought you would come out as a NB directly with your Ou Qi, what happened to the priest, Yu Mou——]

"If you're lucky, there might be a miracle." Yu Yuan began to try to interact.

The quest interface now only has one quest.

[Please join your teammates at [Necro Bar] [Task remaining time: 1h57min]]

There is a distance guide next to it, it doesn't look too far, and it won't take long to walk, maybe his birth point is relatively close.

After thinking about it, he decided to check the character's information first.

【Clay Taylor】

[Identity: Priest of the Central Holy See]

[Talent: [Affinity] [Believer] [Blessing of Holy Light]]

[Props: [Cross] [Holy Water]...】

......

After looking around and researching the skills, Yu Yuan completely understands where the role of priest is weak.

This fucking character is basically a hyper-type character. Others come to take risks in horror games to fight ghosts, and priests come to use crosses and prayers to influence ghosts. The most terrible thing is that [Bright Prayer] and other skills in the skills are probabilistic trigger skills, that is to say Whether you can exorcise ghosts depends on luck? !If you don't succeed, you will die, not to mention that the priest's physical fitness and other values ​​​​are not very good, so it can be said that he is both powerful and fast.

—— Killing ghosts directly is not faster than exorcising ghosts, and it is completely effective. How can the audience come to watch him read prayers!

But the more terrible thing is yet to come.

There is a basic gameplay setting in "Life of the Andersons" that he had read the explanation early in the morning. During the day, players are in an absolutely safe state and can move freely, but once it gets dark, no matter where they are, they may encounter Danger.

In this case, if you want to ensure your absolute safety, there is only one way to crack it - each player will randomly have a safety condition, and the difficulty of the condition changes with the difficulty of the game.

The most common security condition is to hide in a safe room. For example, he was a general doctor at the time of the novice tutorial, and the safe room was his own consultation room. The absolute security condition at night was naturally to stay inside and not come out.

Or other safety conditions, such as killing ghosts during the day, can be 100% safe at night, etc., all exist.

And this time his safety conditions...

[Your absolute safety condition at night is: stay within a certain range of Pope Hoyle Ban, please refer to the in-game instructions for the specific range. 】

What the hell security conditions, why is there a mobile safe house here? !
