Edward seemed to have noticed the changes in Yi Xuan, and immediately replied, "Is the Dust Wind Clan? It seems to have heard of it, what's the matter? Interested in them?"
"No, just ask, then do you know that there is a King of the Hill?" Yi Xuan deliberately ignored Edward's question and continued to ask.
Edward frowned, but still said: "I have heard that the king of the hill is the title of the king of the dwarf clan. As far as I know, there are seven kings of the hill." After that, Edward really bears it. Unable to curiosity in my heart, I asked again: "What the hell is going on?"
Yi Xuan shook his head and asked, "So, have you heard of the Elf Watcher?"
"I've also heard of this, what exactly do you want to ask? I know which aspect to introduce after you tell it!" Edward looked a little anxious.
Yi Xuan held back a smile in his heart. It was interesting for such a self-thinking and inquiring person, but he did not intend to hide it from Edward. Although the two are not friends, they are all from the real world. Players of, in the matter of the game, they are in the same camp, have common goals and interests, and he has always wanted to talk to people about this matter, so he did not answer, and asked: "Have you ever thought about it? How did this game come about?"
Edward nodded gracefully. "Of course, since entering this game, I have thought about this problem the most, but well, there are always some things I can't figure out. I have put forward many ideas, but each of them has some unexplainable points. ."
"Is it? We are very similar to this, and I have had many ideas, but the more I get into this game, the more I feel that there are many loopholes in the original ideas. Now I feel that the most close to the truth is the aliens said. Now, although I hate the way that the unexplainable things are attributed to aliens, apart from this, I really can’t find a reason to convince myself.”
"Aliens? Impossible." Yi Xuan did not expect Edward to hear his theory, and immediately shook his head to say no, and then said: "At least based on my common sense, this is impossible."
"Oh? Why do you say that?" Yi Xuan asked strangely. Judging from Edward's attitude, Yi Xuan felt that he had at least absolute confidence.
Edward immediately said calmly: "Let’s tell you this. This person’s imagination is based on things he can understand. For example, science fiction novels created by authors on earth are mostly based on earth people, even if they are magic fiction. Characters are also based on humans. You see, for example, elves, dwarves, orcs, etc., although they have some specific characteristics in appearance, they are still inseparable from the concept of humans. Based on this, it is inferred that even aliens must be. So, so you think, if this game is made by aliens, then this game should be set according to the logic of aliens, including the scenes and characters inside, but why is the content of our game like the earth? Are similar?"
Although Edward’s words are reasonable and well-founded, Yi Xuan doesn’t think so, “I’ve heard a theory before that it’s possible that aliens will look the same as us, because they evolve in the same environment. Similar, a planet suitable for life must have the elements of life, so it is very likely that the aliens are actually the same as us."
"Well, even if the appearance is the same, but what about the culture? There are also these magical things. As far as I know, these elves, orcs, etc., are all content that appears in human magic novels. Aliens have also come up with similar characters? Even if they are similar, they can’t be exactly the same, right? Could it be said that the history of this alien civilization is so similar to ours? This thing is absolutely impossible."
Yi Xuan thought for a while, and felt that what Edward said was indeed a problem. Even for similar characters, there should always be some subtle differences. However, the character settings that I have come into contact with are basically the same as those of Yi Xuan in the game before. It was exactly the same. Although Zhao Beifeng had made some explanations, in Yi Xuan's view, it was still very unreasonable.
Seeing that Yi Xuan was lost in thought, Edward's curiosity was still not satisfied, and he immediately asked: "Don't divert the subject" Oh. "Yi Xuan recovered from his thoughts. "It's actually a problem. I met these heroes a few days ago. In the battlefield I said, you should have played Warcraft, right? "
Edward nodded, and Yi Xuan continued: "The overall setting of that battlefield is very similar to League of Legends, which is a game derived from Warcraft, and these heroes are simply the heroes in Warcraft, so I I have some doubts about the origins of these people, and because of this, I have some questions about the background of this game. This is why I asked you just now."
"Oh, that's all." Edward nodded disapprovingly.
"Why, don't you be surprised by what you mean?" Yi Xuan asked strangely.
"Hehe, it's my theory just now. According to my guess, the power behind this game is definitely within the range of the earth."
"You mean, this game was created by the people of the earth? Impossible. The technology that the earth now possesses can't create such a game!" Although the words are affirmative, Yi Xuan was a little hesitant after saying it. He doesn't know much about science and technology. If there really is any country with such strength
Who knows that Edward said with certainty after hearing his words: "It is indeed impossible to make it, at least for now."
"What do you mean?" Yi Xuan was completely overwhelmed by Edward. "Didn't you say it is the technology of the earth?"
"It's the technology of the earth, but it's definitely not now, because even if someone can create such a game, it is completely impossible to summon monsters in the game in reality. In fact, the technology of holographic virtual games already exists. In the prototype, even if the technology is not perfect, according to my calculations, it is basically possible to achieve it after a few decades, at least it is possible to achieve it through equipment such as game helmets or game warehouses. But in reality, it is called virtual The monsters of the world apply the abilities in the game to reality. This is a bit unbelievable, but it is not completely impossible. At least I think it will basically appear by 2200." Edward's talk, let Yi Xuan was a little frightened, because he had to admit that Edward was right. Game helmets and somatosensory games have now begun to appear in simulators, but they have not yet entered fully consciously, but they control the wheelchair and even speak through consciousness. However, the related technologies of visual objects have already appeared. If these technologies are integrated, it is not impossible that somatosensory game warehouses will appear in a few decades. This explains his current situation, and he does not know that computer skills are loaded with this technology. Is there any, but I have watched a movie before. The general idea is to train people to generate relevant memories through computer simulations, and then learn professional fighting skills. If this technique is extended a bit, the knife that I loaded before Skills like kicking are not unsolvable, and now the most incomprehensible thing is to summon creatures.
Yi Xuan swallowed hard, because he found that Edward's theory seemed more reasonable than appearance technology, but it was also more unacceptable. "You said that in 2200 there may be a technology for calling virtual creatures in reality. How can this be achieved?"
"This is very simple." Edward said of course: "You think, now humans can use cells to make cloned sheep, cloned humans and other clones. What if the world invents portable cloning machines in the future? The tissue is stored in the watch and cloned directly when needed. Can't it be used like a summoning technique?"
"No" Yi Xuan shook his head, as if trying to deny this theory, "This is still no way to explain card loading and batch summoning, because the capacity of the watch is limited. To clone such a big monster, the nutrients, protein and the like are needed. There must be a lot of things, how can you carry it with a watch?"
"This is not a problem. If it is 2200, the technology of that era is no longer what we can imagine. If you think about it, even if the people who were able to imagine that they would occupy a room in that era, the computer will now change. Is it the size of a notebook? The growth of science and technology is exponentially multiplied. By then, a solution can be found. And according to my knowledge, it can be understood that the process of biological growth is actually energy. The protein, fat and starch that we eat are ultimately converted into energy. What about the other way around? Can energy be reduced to protein starch? And energy is often a very abstract concept. Machines can generate huge amounts of energy and have the function of transforming energy into actual substances, so a small battery is likely to be able to produce all kinds of huge creatures." Edwards obviously made a lot of calculations on his theory. , Talked freely about the questions raised by Yi Xuan.
"Okay." Yi Xuan said weakly, although he didn't want to believe it, but "what you said is quite the same, but as you said, it will not be possible to invent this technology until 2200. Although I don’t know how your time was calculated, there is one thing I believe that the technology of our time cannot invent this kind of technology. I am quite sure of this point. Then this shows that it is not a human being in reality. The thing is even more outrageous than the aliens."
"Or someone from the future." Edward, not to be outdone, continued to speak his own theory. "If people from the future came to the present to create this kind of game."
"Impossible. Everyone knows the hazards of changing history. Any science fiction novel must make a rigorous plan for the time machine. I don't believe that they will use the time machine to transform the current people in large quantities." Yi Xuan immediately rejected Edward's theory. If the words just said were more convincing, it sounded like they were talking in a dream.
"That's not right. Now is history. Do you remember the Terminator? The future man came to the present and gave birth to a child with the present. Did you say that he changed history? His actions are history. It is him and That woman gave birth to a child and became the future savior."
"How can film and television works be counted? If his father hasn't appeared yet, how could he appear? This is unreasonable in itself."
"If this is unreasonable, then the extraterrestrial inference is even more unreasonable." Edward shrugged and said unconvincingly. It seemed that he was very upset about Yi Xuan's denial of his theory.
"What you said reminds me that, rather than people in the future creating this game, I am more willing to believe that extraterrestrial technology came to the earth to create this game, and they have referenced the content of the earth's game, so there are these things now. Warcraft or something." Yi Xuan also began to become unreliable.
The two people argued for a long time. In the end, no one could convince anyone. In fact, they could not even convince themselves. Yi Xuan did not fully confirm the explanation of aliens, and Edward was obviously not so confident in human technology. Imagine it according to their most logical conjectures.
After a pause for a while, both of them laughed inexplicably, seeming to feel a little ridiculous for the childish behavior of their argument. Edwards first expressed a compromise: "Forget it, what we need to care more about is now than to study his origins. And our future in the game."
"Yes." Yi Xuan looked at the Dark Tower and returned to reality again. Zhao Beifeng's affairs were like those dark clouds, which made his heart feel heavy and uncomfortable.
"Then it's better to discuss what we are going to do next, attack the Dark Tower, when will we start to act?" Edward asked.
"The sooner the better." Yi Xuan said, "Today is too late. We'd better take a rest tonight and make a reasonable plan so that we can attack the Tower of Darkness tomorrow. So many of us want to be here. It is estimated that it is not easy to move around in the narrow terrain. At that time, it must be well distributed." Although the internal structure of the Dark Tower is grand, it is still a bit narrow for the two thousand people behind Yi Xuan and Edward. Yi Xuan looked at the following players and said: "Of course, we still have to release some reconnaissance missions. Now this tower has become very unfamiliar. We probably need to find out what's going on inside."
Edward nodded, "Speaking of which, I remember that Zhao Beifeng has seen him once before. I still have a little impression of him. Is he the one that the Shadow God will possess?"
"What kind of person the Shadow God will possess? What nonsense are you talking about?" Yi Xuan shook his heart when he heard Edward's words, and immediately thought of the worst situation in his heart, but he still didn't want to believe it, and said in a reproachful tone.
"You don't know yet?" Edward said in surprise, "I thought you knew more about the Shadow God Cult than I did. Don't you know that the Shadow God wants to possess and resurrect?"
Listening to Edward's affirmation, Yi Xuan's heart is even more worried, "What the hell is going on?"
"I have to start with a copy I played some time ago. The leader of that copy is also a person of the Shadow God Cult. After the defeat, I found some classics in their altar. I thought it was useless, but opened it. At first glance, it turned out to be some records about the Shadow God Sect. I remember you talked about this organization, so I paid special attention to it. The record here is very clear. It turns out that if the Shadow God wants to be resurrected, it must be taken from it. One of the followers of, of course, is not an ordinary person. It corresponds to the four elders of the Holy Light in the Knights of Light. There are four great sages under the Shadow God. The choice of these four great sages is bound to be He is a person who is extremely talented, strong, and loyal to the Shadow God. He will choose a man with the strongest mana to possess him. In their Shadow God Cult, this is a supreme honor, because the Shadow God is here. The resurrection will not only occupy this person’s body, but will also absorb this person’s thoughts. In other words, the possessed person will also become a part of the Shadow God. Actually speaking, this Shadow God is actually a A huge combination of thoughts, his consciousness is a collection of generations of dark sages, plus the monster formed by the evil nature of the dark power itself. After knowing these things, I also deliberately inquired Something about the Shadow God Cult. Later, I found out that the only dark sage appeared so far is this Zhao Beifeng, so if I guess right, if the Shadow God wants to be resurrected, he will definitely find Zhao Beifeng."
"What? There is this kind of thing?" Yi Xuan was shocked when he heard. To be honest, although he created the so-called Shadow God Cult, he is not clear about some of the details. These are all generated by the system. , But he still holds a ten-thousandth hope, and asks with no confidence: "But you said that the shadow god will absorb the possessed person to gain consciousness, does it mean that if this person is possessed by the shadow god The body has just gained extra strength and the previous will, but still keeps his consciousness sober?"
"Hahaha." Edward laughed loudly, as if laughing at Yi Xuan's innocence. "It seems that you really underestimated the gods in this game. Being possessed by gods will retain some of the possessors’ will, but a large part of this will comes from power, which means that the God of Shadow will hold him for generations The possessed person’s power has been preserved. As for consciousness, even if it is not discarded, it is probably completely blackened. After all, who can resist the assimilation of a god, are you right?"
Yi Xuan’s face is getting worse and worse. If it is really like what Edward said, then the result of their attack is likely to be worse than he expected at the beginning. What he was afraid of, Zhao Beifeng lost his memory and forgot about himself, but now I see it. Come, not only can't remember how simple he is, he may have completely become another person.
"You mean Zhao Beifeng's consciousness will be completely swallowed by him?" Yi Xuan asked desperately.
Edward nodded. "Of course, if he is possessed, he must have no reservations, but now he should not have been completely possessed, because if he has been possessed, it means Shadow The God of Shadows should have been resurrected, so we have no chance of winning, and things like games are definitely for the player to win. If the player wants to win, the God of Shadows cannot be completely resurrected, so Don't worry, when we arrive at Zhao Beifeng's place tomorrow, the Shadow God will definitely not be fully resurrected."
"Will it really be like this?" Yi Xuan took a deep breath. Although worried in his heart, he still held a ten-thousandth hope.
"Well, I think it is, but you don't have too much hope, because after we get there, we can say that it is not necessarily." Edward muttered quietly, although it was very quiet, Yi Xuan heard it clearly.
"What did you say?"
"Oh, nothing." Edward said casually.
"No, it won't be true after you say it, why do you say that?"
Edward saw that Yi Xuan’s eyes were so serious, he knew that Yi Xuan would not give up unless he said clearly, so he had to explain: "You must have played games before. According to the general game theory, of course, it is a challenge for players. The more thrilling can attract the interest of the players, then if the Shadow God has not been resurrected, even if the player wins Zhao Beifeng, the sense of accomplishment will not be great."
"You mean..." Yi Xuan had already thought of the possibility, but he didn't want to tell the cruel fact from his own mouth.
"Yes, I mean that in order to satisfy the player's experience, the Shadow God should be able to be resurrected in the end, but it is not completely resurrected, so that the power has reached a certain level of strength, and it is not invincible. The time of defeat is also said to have passed, but the player feels that he has won at a risk, and this is the process that a good game should have.".
"Yes, you're right." Yi Xuan murmured. Although he didn't want to admit it, this step he said was indeed the most likely to happen. Yi Xuan still remembers that there is a blood god Haka in World of Warcraft. It's exactly the same as the routine of the Shadow God that Edward said.
In the 1960s in World of Warcraft, there was a dungeon called Zul'Gurub. Yi Xuan once played this dungeon. The blood god Haka is the final boss of this dungeon. It was defeated, but it appeared again in the later game plot. Therefore, the blood god Hakkar who was defeated before was obviously not the real blood god entity, but just a descending phantom and the like, since there is something in this game There are so many places to learn from Warcraft, then it is likely that Zhao Beifeng will endure the same thing this time, and the power to obtain a part of the Shadow God will become extremely powerful, and finally be defeated by the player. Of course, without Yi Xuan's intervention, it would logically develop in this way. Yi Xuan suddenly raised his head when he thought of this place. After sweeping away the sluggishness and confusion, he made up his mind that since he has his own existence, he will definitely not. Let Zhao Beifeng experience such a thing.
Thinking of Ao, Yi Xuan solemnly said to Edward: "There is one thing, you must promise me."
"What?" Edward also felt the spiritual change of Yi Xuan, and asked a little strangely.
"Tomorrow’s battle begins, I don’t care about the game plot, and I don’t care about the preliminary progress. At that time, I can even help you show up, but when you fight against Zhao Beifeng in the end, you must ask me to confront him personally. And restrain the people in your alliance."
"You? Go single against him? Are you crazy? If you really tell me that, Zhao Beifeng will become extremely powerful, how can you be his opponent." Edward's face was unreasonable.
But Yi Xuan had already made up his mind, "You don't have to worry about it." Yi Xuan still looked serious, trying to make Edward understand that he was definitely not a joke. "At that time, I will naturally be responsible. Even if I can't beat him, there will be no loss to you. At that time, you and other people will not be the limelight. At that time, your influence in the alliance will be yours. It must be much larger than it is now. By then, the copy of forty people will be just one sentence to you. In other words, even if I win, there will be no loss to you, and victory will be won without effort. Isn't it better. What do you think?"
Edward thought for a while. There is really nothing to worry about in this matter. "I don't care, but you have to be careful. Don't lose your life for the sake of being a hero."
"Don't worry. So you agreed?" Yi Xuan confirmed with him again. Edward nodded, and suddenly glanced at Yi Xuan suspiciously, "Is there any connection between you and Zhao Beifeng? Is there something about me? Something you don't know?"
Yi Xuan shook his head, "You don't need to worry about this. Even if there is any connection between us, it will definitely not cause you any loss."
Edward nodded, "You are right, since we came to this game together, of course we won't frame each other, right?" When he said this, he carefully observed Yi Xuan's expression, the latter He smiled and nodded, which was considered approval. Edward said: "As for the others, it really has nothing to do with me, but I still want to warn you that in this game, things like gods are very evil. If Zhao Beifeng If he is really possessed by the Shadow God, he will probably deny it to the six relatives. For the safety of my allies, if you feel that the situation is not good, you should send me a signal quickly so that I can take someone up to help, or you will hang me up. Not responsible."
Edward was kind, but Yi Xuan had already made up his mind, so he smiled slightly: "Don't worry, it's okay."
I was thinking that if I really encounter such a situation at that time, with my current ability, escape shouldn't be a big problem.
Just when Yi Xuan and Edward had just negotiated, a dull sound suddenly sounded in the sky, and darkness fell from the sky like substance, forming a huge vortex. This vision immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Damn, what's the situation?" The players shouted, and immediately a group of three or five people hurriedly formed a defensive formation. Some large guilds immediately stood in their platoons, and those NPCs also took precautions. The state, for a while, the sword in front of the Tower of Darkness was tense, and the situation was very tense.
Yi Xuan and Edward glanced at each other, rushed over, stood in front of the team and watched the black whirlpool on the dark tower gradually condense, and slowly turned into a human-shaped entity, stunned in Yi Xuan. Watching closely, that body gradually took on its own appearance. God, that was Zhao Beifeng, Yi Xuan let out a scream in his heart.
"Welcome to your doomsday, humble mortals." The demonized voice sounded like it came from outside the sky, and there was no more shadow of Zhao Beifeng.
The black human figure was floating in the air, his body was shrouded in darkness, and his eyes swept contemptuously between the players and the heroes of the alliance empire.
"I have to say that you are very courageous and dare to come here to challenge me, but unfortunately, my strength has been restored. You will all perish here and become my ghost force."
When his eyes swept across the crowd, they collided with Yi Xuan's eyes in the air. Only one moment, Yi Xuan's whole body was shaken. His body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave on a cold day. Yi Xuan didn't see a little bit of a human expression in his eyes just now, his eyes seemed to be a bottomless abyss, completely different from the Zhao Beifeng he had known before.
