Goldfinger turned me over to the state

The news of the superpowers did not cause an overreaction from the public, perhaps because of the cultivation of immortals and magic "before the jewels and jade"; or perhaps because the news had been widely circulated on the Internet before the official announcement, so that when the dust settled , only let most people have the feeling of "finally here", lacking a little passion.

Of course, one of the biggest influencing factors is that the performance of these superpowers has not met the expectations of ordinary people.

The lethality is almost zero, not to mention killing people, even killing chickens, the effect of holding a kitchen knife in hand is stronger than "super power".

Not to mention that the positioning of some superpowers in reality is tasteless.

For example, for a player whose super ability is "digestion", this special talent is quite impressive in the holographic game, and once made the player famous.

Therefore, the expert team had very high expectations for him, but after the player entered the selection of superpowers, everyone discovered that the awesome talent in the game has become "can eat but not too much" in reality. "Case.

After changing various test methods and still not discovering the potential of this ability, the player had no choice but to lose the selection.

This wasn't an outlier, and since then, it's happened with increasing frequency, giving the panel a solid understanding of how games and reality differ.

As Noah said at the beginning, the holographic game has very limited impact on human players. It may open a door, but how much treasure can be excavated from this door depends on other factors.

For example, personal efforts, the degree of fit between the player and the door, and so on.

The magic system is the most typical example. Because of the influence of the game, everyone can learn magic in reality, but the extent to which they can learn magic has nothing to do with what magic skills the player has learned in the game. It only depends on the opponent's efforts in reality. and knowledge of the magic framework.

Superpowers are subtly different from the magic system. After all, superpowers come from alien civilizations, and are theoretically defined as "a slight evolutionary tendency in bodily functions." Therefore, games have a deeper influence on it than magic, and the relationship between the two is even stronger. Tight, but not much more than that.

Even if it is a slight evolution, there are differences between good and bad evolution, and high or low compatibility.

At the beginning, when no one knew that special talents and special states could be obtained from special races, most players just followed suit—it would be nice to have thigh hugs, so what else should they choose?

Typical representatives of this type of players are Hao Yun and Xie Sheng. They all won the favor of some special races without knowing anything, and then possessed special talents and special status.

And after the news that special players can give special talents spread, a bunch of players began to try their luck one by one by clearing hidden missions. If they hit a wall with a special race, they would change to another one. Through tireless efforts, they tried various methods, Gained a special talent.

Most of the superpowers of such players are tasteless, and their performance in reality is very different from that in games.

So, after rumors of super powers spread vaguely, the players communicated with each other and summarized the problem-there is a certain hidden numerical judgment between the special talent and the player, which is obtained by hard-charging favors and shamelessness. Special talents may be awesome in the game, but they are useless in reality.

As a result, various related suggestions naturally appeared, and finally summarized into "Special NPC Favor List and Special Talent Suggestions", an extremely useful strategy with a wide coverage.

Even so, the weakness in the initial stage of superpowers is still an objective reality.

But even if the reaction in reality is not intense, the excitement caused by it in the game cannot be avoided-even if it is tasteless, it is better than nothing.

With this idea in mind, before the global public beta has started, and foreign players have not flooded into the game on a large scale, countless players who have not obtained special talents/special status due to various reasons enthusiastically started the "hidden mission" of special NPCs .

For the panel of experts, this is undeniably good news.

Because the players are busy with the hidden missions, the progress of the world boss in the game has slowed down a lot, and the No. 08 abnormal event can wait for a while.

The game seems to have become more lively recently.

ShadowClan jumped in the shadows, walking on "roads" that only he could see.

The world in the eyes of the Shadow Clan is different from that of humans. The shadow that is almost integrated with the shadow is the main area of ​​their activities, and they live on the other side of the light.

What they see most are the shadows of different intelligent creatures, shadows can talk, and shadows can kill people.

ShadowClan are born master assassins, and high-level ShadowClan are called "Puppeteers". In civilizations that know the existence of ShadowClan, ShadowClan has a great reputation.

But the universe is too big, no matter how famous the race is, it is still just a drop in the ocean in such a vast world.

As a Shadow Clan who was extremely short of money but decided to shell out a sum of money to order a holographic game pod, this game lived up to his expectations.

He did make money in this game.

It’s just that the way of making money is a bit unusual. It’s neither earning money by helping customers kill monsters and upgrading; nor earning money by being an assassin in the game. Accumulated, and then became bigger and stronger, and realized the unification of the express delivery industry - he brought a bunch of Shadow Clans to work with him in the game.

No one thought that the small feature of the Shadow Clan being able to travel through the shadows would one day become the leader in the express delivery industry - even the Shadow Clan never thought about it.

Mainly because this game is too unconventional.

First of all, as a mature holographic game, it does not have teleportation scrolls and teleportation skills. Players can only rely on various means of transportation to travel hard.

Thus, the advantages of Shadow Clan were highlighted, but it was still not enough.

Although the Shadow Clan can "jump" to another shadow through the shadow, if the number of shadows is too small, they will not be able to gain a monopoly advantage in the express delivery industry.

Therefore, another feature in this game once again facilitated their development of the express delivery industry, that is, an astonishing number of players and a small game map.

The crowded situation made the express delivery business of ShadowClan develop like a snowball.

Today, it has become the first choice of many players - many players here refer to special races, not humans.

Although ShadowClan wanted to open up the market for human players, they were too noisy and enthusiastic. After being surrounded by several players and trying to complete the 'hidden mission', ShadowClan gave up on human players decisively.

Because of the particularity of the Shadow Clan, it's not easy for human players to find them, so they can't pick up the shadows one by one, right?Even if you pull it, you can't pull it out.

In this case, Shadow Clan is one of the rare exceptions among alien players who haven't had much interaction with human players, but even so, Shadow Clan has noticed something unusual about the recent excitement of holographic games.

But he didn't think too much, after all, making money is more important.

He shuttled through countless shadows, arrived at the designated place, and then froze on the spot, not understanding what was going on in the scene before him.

His employer, that is, the consignee, a powerful half-orc, half-mechanical body, is currently playing mahjong under the big tree.

The four-square table was full of people. One of the employer's mechanical bodies touched the cards in his hand, and one fluffy paw touched his chin. He looked around the human players "fiercely" and carefully played the cards in his hand. .

"Nonsense!" He yelled immediately when he got home, pushed the mahjong in his hand, and stared happily at his employer.

The employer gritted his teeth, gave him a white note, and waved at him impatiently. The three human players on the square table got off the table together and lined up at the end of the line.

The players at the front of the team immediately took their seats and played mahjong.

Shadow Clan, who witnessed the whole process, stared at the endless team of human players and fell into deep thought—is this game developing a new game mode?Otherwise, why did those human players line up in such a long line here?As if to form an order?

Shadow Clan didn't understand, and didn't want to understand, anyway, he was a courier.

Now that the consignee was at the target location, he poked his head out of the other party's shadow and beckoned the employer to sign for the delivery.

The half-orc, half-mechanical body that was playing mahjong didn't stop. The mechanical arm was extended, stretched out to the shadow, signed for the goods, paid the money, and then ended the employment relationship.

The player at the front of the line poked his head, stared at the bulging shadow for a while, and exclaimed as if he had found a treasure: "It's the Shadow Clan!"

There was an uproar in the rear.

"Fuck! Isn't it the special NPC that is said to be the most difficult to encounter in the post? Where is it?"

"What special talent does the shadow have? I won't remember it for a while."

"Shadow clone, shadow shuttle..."

"Then what are you waiting for, it's just awesome!"

At the moment when the team was in an uproar, the Shadow Clan, who was good at close combat, known as the Master Assassin, and had unfathomable strength, suddenly shuddered, feeling as if he was being targeted by something.

This was an instinct he honed in countless times of life and death, and there was absolutely no way he could be wrong, so the Shadow Clan immediately became vigilant, looking suspiciously at the half-orc who was still transferring money, suspecting that the other party wanted to cheat.

He wasted precious time in escaping. In the next second, the crowd rushed forward, and countless hands stretched out towards the Shadow Clan.

The Shadow Clan could have retracted into the world of shadows, but!He hasn't received the money yet!

It was only a second slower, and the orc completed the transfer, and he was also grabbed by countless players.

Seeing this scene, the orc froze for a moment, scratched his head, and grinned, showing his fangs: "Oh, you're in trouble."

The Shadow Clan doesn't care - as the uncrowned king in the shadow world, he can return to the shadow anytime he wants, and no one can catch him.

Shadow Clan shrunk down - failed to shrink, a small lump of mucus stuck to his hand, keeping a part of him out of the shadow, so that the painting style of the scene became weird.

"Damn it! This thing is really useful!" A certain player dropped something casually, but he didn't expect to keep ShadowClan behind, and he repeatedly exclaimed, more surprised than ShadowClan showed.

The other players surrounding the Shadow Clan hurriedly asked: "Brother, what kind of prop is this? Where did it come from?"

"A special NPC gave it to me. I originally wanted to clear his hidden mission, but it didn't work. I got some weird props from the other party." The player shook the slime in his hand, feeling very emotional: "No Come to think of it, this thing is actually useful.”

So the players enthusiastically asked about the origin of this lump of slime and how to obtain it, and after listing it as a must-have for contacting the Shadow Clan, they enthusiastically sent a request for "favorite" to the Shadow Clan.

Right now, everyone has some experience on how to get in touch with special NPCs, and the way to gain favor is not as rough as before. Everyone follows the strategy, first asks about the hobbies of the Shadow Clan, and then tries to match their preferences—in short, they are scrambling and shouting To be friends with ShadowClan.

The Shadow Clan couldn't bear the disturbance, and was delayed from making money, so they simply went back to their old business and killed all the noisy players.

The players at the back immediately seized the opportunity and flocked to the front to continue the unfinished business of their predecessors.

Shadow Clan killed and killed, killed and killed, and finally, he was tired. When he looked up, he found that the number of players gathered around him was several times that of the beginning, and they all stared at him with overly enthusiastic eyes. The Shadow Clan, who was afraid of life and death, instantly had goosebumps.

The half-orc watched the show for a long time, but he didn't forget to enjoy it. He opened the express delivery and took out a complete set of kitchen utensils customized for a special race. The pots and pans filled the open space, and then said to the human players: "I want When the food arrives, who of you can cook?"

There were a lot of responders at the scene.

The half-orc waved his hand to signal them to line up, and he didn't forget to put forward his request, saying in a straight voice: "I want steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck..."

There was a report of the name of the dish on the spot, and I don't know which player gave him the science popularization, which caused the players who were eager to try it to suddenly fall silent.

Cooking is not a problem, but making such a big dish is a bit too embarrassing.

Even if there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the players, everything is useless without food—during the world boss battle, there are no frisky cattle and sheep at all.

Fortunately, the half-orc was very talkative. After understanding the difficulties of the players, he swiped his pen and placed a large order for the Shadow Clan's goat's feet, bear's paws, and deer's tail.

What?If there are no lively cattle and sheep, how can there be goat's feet and bear's paws?

Isn't there still orcs and half-orcs?The race of alien players is much richer than the species of animals on Earth.

After receiving the urgent big order, Shadow Clan finally got serious and stopped wasting time with human players.

He poked his head out from the shadow, and said to the player who was holding on to him, "My special talent can't affect other players, nor can I create a special state. Don't waste time with me."

The player who pulled him for a long time withdrew his hand, muttering: "No wonder I have never heard of anyone connecting with the Shadow Clan. It turns out that it is a lone wolf again."

The surrounding players dispersed in a rush, and shifted their targets to the half-orcs present.

Lone wolf is the player's name for a special race that cannot be given special talents and special status.

This kind of special NPC is not uncommon. After all, since there are special races that can 'assimilate'/'bless' other races, there are naturally special races that cannot affect other races.

For example, Shadow Clan, a hard-core physics player, only deals with shadows, and is still poor, so naturally it is impossible to have too dangerous racial characteristics.

In fact, at present, all the special races that can bring "special talents/special status" to players either have certain special characteristics or are extremely dangerous in themselves. One race another possibility.

In reality, it is not easy to achieve this level. It is limited by various objective factors—for example, the fruit of the tree of life, which only ripens once in hundreds of years, is expensive and extremely rare.

But games aren't reality, so they do it with ease, and don't mind having more contact with human players at this level - it's the most important part of their gaming experience.

Because alien players enter the game with their own supermodel talent, the difficulty of the game is too simple for most alien players.

This has led to the unpopularity of the believer profession among alien players. Such a low game difficulty does not make it necessary to change to a believer.

And the faith side is really too nagging, even alien players who want to experience the game plot can't stand the faith side's enthusiasm for missionary, and gave up the idea of ​​​​changing careers as believers.

The low difficulty of the game also led to the low enthusiasm of alien players to participate in the combat mode in subsequent games.

It must be emphasized here that holographic games have the characteristics of self-evolution, so strictly speaking, it is not a perfect game, but a semi-finished product built on the framework of evil gods.

In other words, it lacks many of the game's regular settings, such as teleportation circles, city return scrolls, upgrade rewards, monster kill rewards, and a complete guide story.

For earth players, this is an epoch-making holographic game, so they have a high tolerance for it, but for alien players, they have experienced better holographic games, and this semi-finished product will only further lead to aliens. The player's game experience is missing.

But in this case, the sales of the holographic game pod in outer space have skyrocketed, and the player churn rate is so low that it works wonders.

The reason is also very simple. The positioning of this holographic game among alien players is a communication and interaction software full of humanistic care. Alien players are not here for the battle mode at all, but for the vast network built on the cloud and human players. A unique cultural experience.

In other words, they came to make friends and learn about strange cultural customs along the way.

The influence is mutual. Human players have obtained special talents from alien players, while alien players have obtained countless new knowledge through the interaction with human players.

For example, playing mahjong, or reporting the name of the dish...

For another example, the Shadow Clan went to the orc player for this big deal, only to find out that the other party was having a fierce football match with the players...

Although it seems a bit cheating to say that a big goat participated in this activity, it is also a manifestation of the exchange between the culture of country C and the alien civilization.

Anyway, Shadow Clan didn't care whether the opponent was kicking a ball or a person, and went straight to the big goat.

The Shadow Clan communicated with each other on food and culture in a polite manner, and got the sheep's trotters presented by the big goat, which was so fresh that it was still on the big goat last second.

Once the goat's hoof fell off, there was no need for the big goat to do anything. The human players enthusiastically helped him fill up the blood bars, so the goat's hoof grew out again.

This is the main reason why there is no need to fight and kill. In the game, cutting off a hoof is nothing, and you can be reborn from a broken limb in minutes. Why bother to fight and kill?

The big goat earnestly told the Shadow Clan: "When that dish is ready, bring it to me to taste. I haven't eaten roasted lamb's feet yet."

The Shadow Clan once again had friendly communication with the human players, "I'm a lone wolf, and I can't give human players special talents", and then they retreated smoothly and looked for the next supplier of ingredients.

So the Shadow Clan saw them one after another—the black bear enjoying radio gymnastics, the yellow-horned deer fighting the landlord, the water head duck listening to opera, etc...

It can be seen that the game's rapid expansion in the alien market is inseparable from the efforts of the players.

It is not difficult to understand why the alien players are so friendly.

Because people are here for the two selling points of making friends and experiencing a special cultural model, they don't even bother to deal with the world boss. When human players brush the world boss, they are busy doing other things.

Without the participation of alien players, the No. [-] evil god fell sadly in front of the spirit of Yugong Yishan, and the No. [-] evil god followed. Because he was too weak, he couldn't even change the background of the game world. Make do with the copies left by player No. [-] and continue to be beaten passively.

The expert group was very heartbroken by this. They patted the table in the meeting room and said, "This is too disappointing! After all, he is also an evil god. Why did he behave so poorly?"

"Hey, if I knew today, why did I have to do it at the beginning. How well the No. [-] evil god has performed. He has persisted for so long, and the atmosphere is sufficient, and he can still scare people."

"I don't think the eighth evil god can last long, with only such a small amount of blood, it will be finished within two days."

"The main reason is that the players level up too fast..."

Ji Ting interjected: "I have stretched the experience bar required for players to level up as long as possible, but the evil gods give too much experience, seven evil gods are enough for them to level up."

"We have to prepare in advance. Since there are only two days left, we might as well release the candidates for space tourism. I think it has been circulating on the Internet for a long time, saying that we are going to break the contract."

"How is the implementation of Xiao Lu's space exploration plan? Didn't it mean that a habitable planet was discovered? Why didn't there be any movement after that?"

"The existence of habitable planets is inferred theoretically. Xiaolu is still exploring the past one by one. There is no news yet."

"If we start space tourism now, isn't the progress a bit fast? Didn't we talk about finding a habitable planet before?"

"In such a large universe, you can't even find a habitable planet? Don't worry, it will happen sooner or later. Isn't this the end of the 08th anomalous event? It is estimated that the 09th anomalous event is coming soon, we have to prepare first. We discussed for a long time about inheriting Li Kai’s inheritance, I think it’s best to solve the anomaly incident No. 09 before it starts. After all, you have money in hand, so don’t panic.”

After listening for a long time, Ji Ting asked puzzledly: "Inheriting Li Kai's inheritance, you have to go to other star fields to go to the Human Protection Association to go through the formalities? Who do you plan to let go?"

The experts all set their sights on Ji Ting.

Ji Ting was very self-conscious: "That's right, it's the most convenient for me to go. But what does this have to do with space tourism? I just set off right away. As for such a big circle?"

"It's really not. But anyway, it's going to go to space for a circle. Let me tell you, the safety factor of this space tour is higher, so as to avoid any accidents."

Another expert said: "We are thinking about whether we should have a live broadcast..."

As soon as the words came out, other experts immediately said: "Old Li, hasn't this proposal been rejected long ago? The leader said it was too impulsive, without considering the consequences, and unnecessary. Why are you bringing it up now?"

"Isn't it a good thing to build up national self-confidence? Besides, what can be exposed if you just go to space without going to sensitive areas? I think the leadership is too conservative, and we are about to enter a new era. I can't be the same as before, I always feel that I can't do it..."

"You tell the leader about this."

"It's not that I didn't say it, the leader doesn't listen, what can I do?" The expert called Lao Li muttered, and said with a straight neck: "The times are different, we have to accept a brand new world. The universe and space are not An illusory dream, but a goal already held in our hands, we have to keep going! Tell everyone, we will go to the vast sea of ​​stars, to the vast and passionate countless civilizations."
