Chapter 439 438 A family must be neat and tidy even in a different world
Chapter 439 438. A family must be neat and tidy even in a different world - [Additional update 525]
(Added update for the "laid-back survivor" brothers [5/5])
Although Quanxinshanghai raised the serious consequences of casual "plastic surgery" for veteran players on the forum, not everyone was chatting on the forum at this time, and not everyone cared about this hidden danger.
Especially those who play "Real Alien" as "Nuan Nuan", the face-squeezing function is their dream game, so after the four-hour update and maintenance ended, a large number of players logged into the game immediately. One group of people started a delightful attempt at face-pinching.
Don't underestimate the patience of these guys.
After all, there has long been a legend on the Internet about their "playing for five minutes and pinching faces for ten hours". Fortunately, such a party is only a small part, and most of the players wake up from the midnight secret room as soon as possible.
Their faces also had slight changes, but they did not change their original appearance.
This kind of fine-tuning of details appears more often in details such as enlarging the eyes, raising the bridge of the nose, fairing the skin, erasing freckles, etc. It is equivalent to giving yourself a "beautification" in the game.
The discussion after they woke up focused more on the newly acquired racial talents, but the veteran players' choices for human bloodlines were mostly based on their semi-formed fighting styles, without thinking about more story backgrounds.
For example, the players under the Church of Avalon system basically chose the Kate bloodline, while the melee fighters were divided into two groups. The shield bearers chose the Nordic bloodline that could slow down the enemy, while the warriors and assassins chose the Nordic bloodline that could enhance the destructive power. The bloodline of the mountain people, and finally the Sealander template chosen by administrative professionals.
They need excellent diplomacy from the Sealanders to add to their administrative capabilities.
This scene was also under Murphy's secret observation, and it did not exceed his expectations, even if the players had only had a brief taste of the face-squeezing function.
This is actually a small "test".
In fact, even if Full Insurance Semiconductor had not pointed out the risks of the face-pinching function at the last moment, he would have given these guys the necessary reminders on the forum as Alpha.
In a 100% real game, the connections and social circles that players already have will be wiped out due to drastic changes in appearance. This is also an effective way to enhance the sense of substitution and immersion, and it is also more reasonable.
Judging from the choices of old players, Murphy can be sure that his "babys" already value everything they have in Transia. This "sunk cost" has begun to take shape, making these guys make choices. A satisfying choice was made.
However, it is not just the old players who are waking up from the midnight secret room, but also the new players who are new to the game this weekend.
The number of people is still fifty, but twenty of them are recruited from the Riptide Knights, and ten are veterans recruited by Happy Stick. The remaining twenty are the greedy people put into the game by Murphy through background review. party.
This is also a new attempt by the vampire lord in player affairs. He is reducing the proportion of his participation in it. In Murphy's vision, when the black disaster comes, this "newcomer recruitment" authority will be completely delegated to the player guild.
He, Tris and the increasingly large "development team" are only responsible for review.
This can effectively increase the unity and connection between players. After all, they are the people they recruited themselves. Needless to say, there is no need to say more about understanding and unity. It can also effectively reduce Murphy's increasingly heavy administrator work pressure.
.
As a local lord, he must transfer part of his energy to the construction and defense of Transia.
The arrival of the newcomers was quickly discovered by the veteran players who were whispering and discussing racial talents. There was no need to say more about the Riptide Knights.
These RP parties have their own "family recognition ceremony" that makes them unique among players.
However, this time there is a "heavyweight character" among the twenty RP party members who entered the game.
Not only is his status special, this "heavyweight" is also an appropriate way to describe his body shape. Murphy, who is hiding in the shadows, has never seen a young player with such a "chubby" body type.
Hey, your stomach is shaking when you walk! Brother.
Although the game is fun, please pay attention to your health in reality, okay?
"Salute to you! His Excellency Quartermaster Serac Finda!"
Master Marin, the liaison officer of the Torrent Knights who had stayed in the Scarlet Castle for a long time, stepped forward quickly and saluted the player in front of him who was looking around in the unique way of "newbies" looking left and right.
He said loudly:
"Most of the advance camp of the Torrent Knights has been established. Currently, the first regiment leader Taipal and the second regiment leader Fording are leading their brothers to fight against the vicious undead on the border of Transia and promote the will of the Holy Light.
We urgently need support from other teams, and your arrival will effectively reduce our logistical pressure."
"At ease, knight."
The "broad and fat" quartermaster returned the salute in a dignified manner, and replied in a formal tone:
"My logistics and strategy team and I have been waiting for this star gate to open again, and now we are called to receive all the logistics work of the Knights. Without further ado, let's take us to the station now!
We should start working immediately to adjust our team to a perfect state before a big crisis comes.
In addition, I heard that our base has a star port. Ahem, I mean the dock! So our business can be compatible with the shipping industry, right?
This is great."
Lord Serac Fanta touched his chubby hand and said excitedly:
"How about two spinners first?"
"What kind of spinner do you want? You must make Leviathan first, since it can be both pretending and fighting!"
An equally polite player behind him immediately retorted:
"With the current unstable situation in Transia, simple mining ships cannot leave the high-security zone and jump to those border low-security zones. If we want to get involved in shipping, we must arm our fleet from the beginning.
I have already collected a lot of information on ships suitable for this era in advance. Once our brave and fearless Transian Army advances to a certain seaport, our shipping industry can flourish everywhere."
These guys were discussing this topic very excitedly. Murphy, who was hiding in the shadows, heard from them some difficult words such as "fearless face riding", "guiding beacon" and "star gate blocking", so he immediately reacted
come over.
Good guy!
Taipal and Uncle Fording got him a group of high-level EVE players! No wonder these guys call themselves the Strategy and Logistics Team, tsk tsk, the real "Operation Masters" are online.
The Riptide Knights seem to have a promising future.
Compared with the wedding ceremony of RP players, the pace of Brother Bang is much faster. Happy Bang and his team are now digging trenches in the Dark Baron. The one who stays in Scarlet Castle is also the liaison officer, the kind-hearted Jushabo.
This guy looked unhappy.
Because he is a vampire, he cannot experience the newly implemented talents of the human race.
However, the launch of the face-squeezing function made him very satisfied. This bald vampire monk belongs to the category of people who have made "dramatic" changes to their faces. He is talking to ten people with a big face that is "too extreme".
The retired engineer introduced the situation of the Maginot Line.
Although Brother Bang is a senior veteran, he was not in the engineering department when he served, so repairing trenches still requires professionals.
The addition of these ten veteran engineers will definitely make the layout of the Maginot Line more reasonable and offensive.
In addition to these two parties, the chosen gray player is also talking to a tall new player. This player looks like he is in his thirties. Although his appearance is not outstanding, his body is well-proportioned.
Types of exercise year round.
While listening to the Asher's introduction to the current construction progress of Scarlet Castle and the surrounding areas, he took the drawings handed over by the Asher to review.
After a few minutes of description, he spoke:
"So, the purpose of Old Chen bringing me here is to assist him in completing the design and construction of various important facilities that will be carried out in the second phase of Transia?
Hasn’t he finished all the drawings? I don’t have anything to modify.”
"No, senior brother, we already have ideas for places that are easy to build now, but some of the more special buildings require too much difficulty, and it is not something that the brick mover and I can handle."
The gray man said with regret:
"These buildings either have special uses or special meanings. We don't dare to use them, so we ask you to come over and check them. You are the best student of Lao Chentou. You can't even do projects like the cross-river bridge."
I’ve done it all before. Isn’t it easy to build a midnight tower?
Moreover, you have been a supervisor for many years, have solid construction site experience, and later worked in an office to lead a team, so you are the right candidate to become the leader of our Masons' Brotherhood."
"You kid, don't put a high hat on me."
The senior fellow from the civil engineering department whose ID was "Samoyelia" laughed, put away the drawings and said:
"I heard from Old Chen that the planning and specific construction of Transia is your and Xiaosun's graduation project. I'm just here to help. You have to do the specific things yourself.
As a senior brother, I can't help you cheat, otherwise I can't bear Old Chen's temper.
Let's go and visit the old man first.
Alas, the last time I saw him was several years ago, and my wife was still there at that time.
I was very worried about the old man's mental state, and kept inviting him to my place to find him something to do, but he refused to go.
But now I feel relieved to see that he has found a second career here, you two really did a great thing unintentionally."
"Hey, luck, it's all luck."
The gray man chuckled and led his senior brother out of the secret room. But as he was walking, he suddenly stopped and looked around, and asked in a low voice:
"I heard from the professor that the love story between you and your sister-in-law, senior brother, also had twists and turns, but in the end the lovers got married. It seems that you must be very experienced in this area, so can I ask you for some experience?"
"ah?"
Samoyelia, who had just entered the game and was still studying the construction style of this vampire secret room, was suddenly stunned. He looked at his junior disciple with strange eyes and couldn't help but slandered in his heart:
"I heard from Xiao Sun before that this guy found two Paper Man wives in the game. I thought this was a bit exaggerated, but now it seems to be true.
This guy can do it!
It can be said to be very punishing in every aspect.”
But although he was slandering in his heart, he was still a member of society, so Brother Samoyed did not show a strange expression, but used a gentler smile to signal the gray man to tell him what he wanted to hear.
The young players currently have their own things to do, so after experiencing this version update, everyone quickly dispersed to continue the unfinished business. However, after most people left, those who were still lying in the midnight secret room
Among the people who completed the "face pinching" task on the stone platform was a woman who stood up vigorously.
Mrs. Mei blinked and looked up and down at this "game scene".
She didn't spend time pinching her face. She was just pretending to sleep just now, but she kept using her ears to collect the surrounding situation. She would wait until the people were almost gone before getting up.
From this point, we can see that Mrs. Mei is probably not a "good guy".
In fact, from the player information submitted by Mrs. Mei, Murphy already knew that this woman not only had the experience of serving in the army when she was young, but also served as a local police officer for a long time after retiring. If it were not for A Feng's accident, this woman
He has probably reached the position of senior police inspector.
Although it is not a family martial arts like Lao Yang, Mrs. Mei can undoubtedly be classified into the category of "Lian Jiazi".
Unlike other people who come here to play games and relax, and unlike those players who enter Transia with missions, the reason why Mrs. Mei came here is very simple.
Just because her baby boy is here.
So she wasn't interested in the plot or anything like that. With her racial talent, she randomly chose a Nord who looked more pleasing to her. She didn't even change her appearance. She obviously wanted to use the most authentic face to reunite with her son.
"You can find your son in the cabin of the dead on the lower level, he is waiting for your arrival."
Just as Mrs. Mei was observing her surroundings, Murphy quietly appeared from the shadows and guided her in smooth Mandarin:
"Your son is currently under the care of both the development team and the medical team. His condition is very good, please don't worry."
"So, are you talking to me on behalf of the development team now?"
Mrs. Mei, who was no longer young but had a graceful attitude, looked at Murphy up and down, and asked warily:
"Is this really a game?"
"Huh, many people have this question, but they will ultimately choose to ignore the answer tacitly."
Murphy showed an implicit smile, stretched out his hand and handed a calculation orb and a psychic dog tag to the female player in front of him. He whispered:
"You can find this answer on your own, or you can ignore these temptations of curiosity and choose to take care of Feng here until the situation takes a further turn.
I can assure you that he is absolutely free here and is already enjoying his new life.
Go and see him.
Just as you miss him, he also misses you."
Faced with Murphy's "Riddler" attitude, Mrs. Mei frowned but she didn't ask any more questions.
He took the arithmetic orb and dog tag and gave Murphy a slight nod to say goodbye, then strode out of the midnight chamber, relying on his excellent spatial perception to quickly find the direction of the deceased's hut underground in the maze-like Blood Vulture Corridor.
As she crossed the stairs going down, she saw Afeng, who was wearing a white training uniform, waiting anxiously amid the green phosphorus fire in front of him.
Seeing her son alive and kicking again made Mrs. Mei burst into tears in an instant.
"Mother!"
Afeng also saw his relatives.
He quickly stepped forward and called his mother, and the two hugged each other. Mrs. Mei hugged the lost child tightly, and she said in tears:
"I'm sorry, Feng, I shouldn't have dragged you out to sea at that time. It's all my fault and my mother's fault. I'm sorry."
"It's okay, Mom, it's okay."
Afeng's nose was a little sour. From the wrinkles on his mother's face and the gray hair, he could tell that what his father said was not false. In the years since his accident, his mother had definitely not lived a good life.
Terrible self-blame tortured her.
"Don't you see that I'm alive now? I can run and jump here, and it's no different from outside. Please stop crying. It makes me want to cry."
Afeng suppressed the excitement in his heart. He patted his mother on the shoulder and said:
"Just think of this as a family trip, but the destination is a different world. Well, it feels weird to say that, but you and dad are by my side, allowing me to have peace of mind here.
, and Brother Mu is here to accompany me, which makes me feel even more interesting than in reality."
"But I hope you can wake up in reality, alas."
Mrs. Mei wiped away her tears and sighed:
"My poor son."
In the shadow behind the two people meeting, Murphy stood there like a ghost, letting the warm and peaceful darkness wrap himself up. He looked at the scene in front of him with a satisfied smile that did not belong to a vampire, even the slow-beating
His dark mind seemed to be filled with these beautiful things, making him feel involuntarily happy.
"Actually, besides luring innocent little players to do work for me, I can also do some good things, right?"
He stretched out his hand to stroke the Demonic Sword of Necessity that was buzzing beside him, and said softly:
"I feel that I am too kind and I am no longer a naturally villainous vampire. In fact, as long as they work better, Master Yang and Mrs. Mei can become the craziest and deadliest assassins and killers under my command, and I am sure they will be willing to do so.
