As a happy-looking porcupine fell to the ground, a halo appeared on Wang Xu's body. The level on his head became LV5, and Master Cat also upgraded at the same time, but so far he has not been killed. All the monsters were chopped by Wang Xu, and Master Cat just sat by to share experience.
"I said... when are you going to see it? Have you seen the bug?!" Wang Xu asked impatiently.
In fact, Master Cat didn’t do anything. He just asked the NPC in Xinshou Village to ask for a "game manual". .
"Everyone can ask NPCs for free in the game manual, how can they find bugs?" Master Cat continued to look at the screen of the game manual, he could read ten lines at a glance, and quickly understand and memorize, but this The description of the game is really extensive and profound. Wang Xu has already helped two people practice level five by himself, and he hasn't read the whole book yet.
"Then you still look at the hair?! You just want to cheat your father's experience!"
Master Cat didn't move his eyes at all, and replied weakly: "You continue to slash monsters. From now on, I will watch and analyze the following content, and at the same time explain to you what I have mastered."
Wang Xu sighed, and had no choice but to pick up his sword and kill the porcupines again.
Master Cat began his explanation: "First of all, killing 500 players within 500 hours is our fundamental goal, and everything serves this purpose. In order to achieve this, we must increase our level. This is the law of online games, the higher the level, the closer to the core content. And during this period, as long as the character is not too low, according to probability, the equipment will definitely be improved accordingly."
Wang Xu said: "You want to express your opinion on any equipment that I haven't released yet, right?"
Master Mao continued as if he hadn’t heard it at all: “This is an online game that introduces brainwaves. In this multiverse, their scientific civilization is about thirty years ahead of our planet, and they can already transform human brainwaves. It is a computer language, using consciousness instead of fingers as a means of manipulation. To put it bluntly, it is very similar to The Matrix. After loading the game, players can hardly tell the difference between manipulating virtual characters and manipulating their own bodies.
However, although the brain is connected to the game, the connection with the real world body still exists, and the player can still take off the game helmet immediately and force it to go offline. Therefore, it can be concluded that playing such a game is like manipulating your second body with your mind. A body, no matter how much it is practiced, it is impossible to achieve the same fit as the body in the real world. "
Wang Xu seemed to have completely missed the point of this passage. The first question he thought of was: "You mean, after 30 years, we will have online games like this on Earth?"
Master Cat sighed: "Actually, there is a field that you don't know about - 'military technology', which is generally about 20 years ahead of civilian technology. Therefore, in theory, after ten years, as long as there is any The government of a superpower decided to ask the country's Ministry of Defense to use all available means to develop such an online game, and it would be a success. Do you have any brain-dead problems that have nothing to do with our ultimate goal? "
"What do you answer if you feel stupid?!"
"I don't care. Anyway, it's not difficult to focus on two tasks. Besides, answering this kind of question doesn't require any brains. To some extent, it's like eating and sleeping. It's a job that can be done without thinking. Do more Such things can activate my hypothalamus and help the brain to think at a higher level, you see, my reading speed has obviously accelerated, and just talking to your silly house can make me feel like a spring of thinking."
Wang Xu was very upset, but he couldn't refute it, so he had to work harder to chop the wild boar to vent.
Master Cat quickly returned to the topic just now: "Unlike other players, our existence itself is a bug. The most obvious point is the way we communicate with this binary world. Other players are using brainwaves to remotely control characters. There is a very short but real delay in the middle, which is the necessary process of converting the language of the human nervous system into the language of the computer. And we don't have this problem, we are like playing a game with the soul, can 100% Use your body efficiently in this game.
Of course, what follows is the problem of being unable to force offline, after all, the soul cannot leave the body, but that's not a problem, and we also get another advantage in the game because of this - infinite energy. You can check the status of your characters. From the time you started slashing monsters until now, your energy has been full, which shows that we will never appear in a state of 'fatigue'. "
Master Cat paused for a moment when he said this. He seemed to have seen some key content in the game manual. A frenzied light suddenly flashed in his decadent eyes, but after a few seconds, he returned to his sleepy face. , and continued: "Because it's 'unable' to go offline, so 'gain' infinite energy. Anyone who participates in the 'seeking sword' will quickly find this out after entering this game, even if the analysis ability is not as good as mine, it is necessary to conclude that 'this It's a cue from the devils' It's not hard at all.
To sum up, the conclusion is that here, our uniqueness will bring various neutral and unfavorable conditions. If we discover and convert these conditions into bugs that are beneficial to us, we can quickly become stronger. "
Wang Xu turned over a porcupine again with a sword: "If you come and kill monsters with me, we can become stronger faster, really."
Master Cat yawned, without moving his butt: "I've focused on the part about killing PK, this game does not have a duel system, there is no battlefield dedicated to PVP, and there is no NVN arena where teams can participate.
You can shoot anyone you don't like in the wild, as long as your actions cause damage to him, and he dies within the same battle time, it will be considered as your kill. For example, there is a person who is fighting with a monster. At this time, you sneak attack him. He kills you first, but is killed by the monster later. In this way, you can also get a kill count. Of course, if you are killed, it will be reduced by one first. Still equal to zero.
In addition, in the situation like I just said, because you shot first, after the two resurrected, although the number of kills has not changed, you will be named red, and the opponent will be named blue.
The PK of this game is very free, so the punishment of the red name is also extremely severe. Firstly, buying things from NPCs will be very expensive, and selling things cannot be sold at a high price. Secondly, the experience of killing monsters will be reduced, and the rate of dropping treasures will be reduced. Equipment may be blown off. In addition, the energy consumption is greater than that of ordinary people, and fatigue is very fast. After the fatigue level is full, it will be forced to go offline. In fact, this is a bit like the legendary "anti-addiction system". Damage or excessive load, set this attribute that cannot be improved by any means, that is to say, a player's online time is at most sixteen hours of virtual time, which is equivalent to eight hours in reality. When the time is up, the energy will be reduced. empty. The system also has a very complicated calculation formula to deal with situations such as offline breaks, changing virtual helmets and account reconnections, etc., so that players' brains must rest.
From this point, it can be seen that Woody and the others have made careful arrangements. If we kill 500 players, we will definitely get a red name, because there are only 21 days and 4 hours to achieve the goal, and in this multiverse There is no physical body provided for us offline at all, so infinite energy also solves the problem of red name at the same time.
As I said earlier, the levels set by the devils are definitely 'achievable', the key point is to look at our game ability. "
Wang Xu kept moving his hands and said without turning his head: "Then after we reach the tenth level, we will only pick the leveling spots where there are not too many people, and find some corners to hide, so that we can spot the kind of people who are alone. Yes, halfway through killing monsters, we will rush forward and take advantage of the trend."
Master Cat quickly poured cold water on it again: "Just now I only mentioned red names, and there are also blue names and white names. White-named players can actively attack red-named players, and their names will not change color after killing them, but red-named players The probability of exploding equipment is higher than that of monsters. As for the guy with the blue name, it is amazing. The only way to change from a white name to a blue name is to be attacked first when you are in a white name. Kill the opponent. So, you can get NPC discounts and experience bonuses, but there is no extra energy, and the fatigue is still reduced. But the most important thing is that when the blue name actively kills the red name, the color of the name It will become deeper, then... greater discounts and experience. You can hear it, the red name is a mouse crossing the street, hacking is healthier, even if two red names meet, they will do it because they want to blow up each other's equipment .
According to your tactics, after killing 20 to 30 people, we will be so popular that we will never be exposed to others, and we cannot even fight monsters. As long as we are in the open, everyone Anyone who sees it will want to kill us.
The most outrageous thing is that if you have enough energy to make your name popular to a certain extent within the limited online time, you will not even be able to enter the safe zone, the guards in the city will attack you, and the commercial NPC will also attack you. Attacking you, the dogs on the street, the cows in the village, and all living things want to kill you. There will also be your arrest warrant posted on the city wall, which can be regarded as a task. Those who complete the task can return to the city to receive the reward after leaving the city to kill you. "
The corners of Wang Xu's mouth twitched: "Hey...we're going to kill five hundred people. According to this mechanism, wouldn't it be a thunderbolt?"
Master Mao did not answer this question, but said: "This game obviously encourages PK, both red names and blue names will gradually turn white due to the increase in offline time, because it is quite difficult to change from white names to blue names, blue names Players will naturally find ways to kill more red names to maintain before the name changes back. Red names are even more unavoidable. Where there are people, there will be grievances. Where there are grievances, there will be rivers and lakes. A group of people gather together to fight monsters Leveling up and wearing equipment, charging money to pretend to be a one-night stand, that must have deduced many stories of enmity as deep as sea and love as strong as gold.
Therefore, we are faced with a choice. "
Wang Xu's hypothalamus probably wasn't idle either, so he immediately replied, "You mean, besides the red-named route, we can also take the blue-named route?"
Master Mao said: "It's not difficult to start. For example, after level ten, I take the initiative to attack you, and then let you kill me on purpose. As long as you don't die, I won't count as killing someone, and I'm still white, and you succeed." Become a blue name, my death and your kills just offset, and the number of kills of 500 is still zero. After the blue name, as long as you don’t actively attack the blue and white players, your blue name will continue , because you are 'no offline time'.
The advantage of this route is that it will not become a rat crossing the street, which reduces the probability of being attacked first. In addition, we have 500 hours of continuous online time. Your blue name will only become deeper and deeper, and you can get hard-to-reach Confidence bonus rewards, money and experience come quickly, in case of death, the probability of equipment being exploded is also very low.
Of course, the disadvantages are as obvious as the advantages, that is, this route can only kill red-named players, and red-named players are definitely not easy to find, and they are not idiots. Too arrogant. As for those who dare to swagger through the market, it is estimated that there are dozens of people who form cliques and run rampant. Given that the two of us are weak, we may not be able to survive.
Also, don't forget that according to the regulations of the sword-seeking game, we must kill players with 'higher levels'. In the later stage, because the blue name leveling speed is very fast, the red name is hard to find, and the level is higher than yours. , and the red name who dared to be single-handedly, maybe it is a character like Dongxiexidu, Nandibeibeg, these grandchildren played the game until they lost the fun, and decided to make the name red and go around alone, who would not open their eyes If you lack education, you will be wiped out. "
Master Cat closed the game manual, and it seemed that he had finally finished his research: "The second route, the red name route, has the advantage that we can kill people at will regardless of the color of the name.
Disadvantages, as I said before, according to our state of no fatigue, at the beginning, walking on the street is a bit of a meaning that everyone can get it, and leveling and equipment will gradually become more difficult. It's very slow... If we are lucky enough to get the number of kills to more than 200, after that, the NPC will probably have to mobilize the urban management team to go up the mountain with the players to suppress the bandits. Basically, at that time, let alone any cities and villages, even if it is a barren mountain, we should not show up in public...
Next, the experience will become a daily limit. If you want to explode the equipment from the monster, it is a daydream. What you wear is all your belongings. If someone kills you once, you may be able to run naked. After streaking, I still can't get equipment, and the strange treasure drop rate is hopeless, so I can only think of ways to kill people and explode equipment, but if you don't have equipment, you can't kill people, and if you can't kill people, you can't get equipment. This cycle goes on and on, and the number of kills gradually decreases to negative, but we are still famous. "
Wang Xu thought for a while and said, "The blue-named route will be very difficult, but the red-named route is basically a dead end, um... what about the white-named route?"
"The same is that you can only kill the red name, which is similar to the blue name. There is no bonus, and it also increases the risk of being attacked by people with the same white name. You have to understand that the blue name itself is a symbol of strength. "
"What kind of symbol? According to your method, everyone can change from white to blue."
"Yes, but only once. If the system detects that someone uses this trick to become a blue name twice, they will be punished by being unable to change their blue name forever. Don't underestimate the artificial intelligence of this game. After all, It is a technology that is ahead of us. It is too inhumane to block such a small trick at the first time. All players will want to play tricks, so the system can accommodate you once, but the name turns blue for the first time. Afterwards, if you don’t have the ability to maintain it, you will still turn into white after all, which invisibly promotes more online activities of players. Because you want to maintain your blue name, you have to keep killing red-named players, so... he needs to change Get stronger, so...buy money to buy equipment, so...PK is hot, so...the red name's counterattack, so...grievances, so...jianghu, and finally...more money."
Wang Xu was confused when he heard this: "Okay... All in all, the white name is a weak road, the red name is a dead end, and the blue name is super difficult. Anyway, after choosing the three roads, you have to go to the black one. Just tell me, which one?"
Master Cat laughed lewdly: "I only need... forty-eight hours."
"Huh?" Wang Xu was startled.
"Actually, the answer is very simple, just go our separate ways."
"Huh?" Wang Xu was dumbfounded.
Master Cat picked up the sword and walked towards the monster: "The two of us will kill monsters together, and we can reach level ten in about three hours. During this process, let me explain the overall layout."
