Chapter 284 Millions of mad dogs emerge from the cage! Global Easter Egg Challenge!
Server-wide announcement!
Ignite the game!
In fact, originally, most players were in awe and fear of the eight peak challenges.
Although this is a game, you can still be resurrected if you die.
But don't forget, there is a long cool-down period for the eight peak events. In fact, changing directions is equivalent to having only one life in the game.
Moreover, if you can really get through all the eight peak events, then you can completely win all the bonuses.
Therefore, although "Peak Kingdom" has been on sale for nearly two weeks at this time, the total number of players has exceeded the 2.4 million mark, and the number of people who have signed up to participate in the "Peak Eight" has also reached nearly two million.
However, most players only temporarily use those eight scenic spots as travel simulators to experience the peak of Everest or the majestic waves of the Sea of Cortez.
As for challenges...
There are still relatively few players who commit suicide immediately.
but now!
As Octane completed Ice Consolidation, one of the eight pinnacle events, for the first time, the world announced.
Plus the cat gift action and cat hat decoration specially given by Golden Wind.
More and more people know the story of Cat Man, and at the same time, they are also looking forward to the [ultimate reward] mentioned in Cat Hat!
As we all know.
Historically, whether it is games or film and television cultural works.
Easter eggs are always a setting that is talked about by audiences and players.
The feeling of an extra little surprise is both curious and fascinating.
Even sometimes a movie itself may be boring, but it only relies on a small easter egg to arouse the audience's excitement.
And now.
Golden Wind has buried a super easter egg in the game, waiting for players to uncover it.
Ever since, more and more players have joined in.
A surge of power! A rappelling down a mountain ridge in Utah, USA——
On the steep ridge, there are jagged rocks!
A player wearing a cat hat and fully armed made a cat salute gesture, then suddenly kicked off the wheel and suddenly rushed off the cliff!
Under the huge height difference, the mountain bike specially designed for high-intensity mountain descents creaked and groaned, then rolled up billows of dust and surged forward.
From the perspective of the drone, the Utah mountain ridge looks like a suspended plank road. From a distance, the entire mountain climbing track is almost at a ninety-degree angle, with only a slight slope!
If the warriors who come to challenge are a little careless, or even shift their center of gravity even a little bit during the fall, they may lose complete control, and even people and vehicles may fall into the cliff with a drop of hundreds of meters!
The birth of heaven! High-altitude parachute landing on Mount Everest in China——
The contestant wearing a parachute suit took a deep breath, looked at the crisscrossing and crisscrossing mountains, made a cat salute, and then jumped, suddenly falling into the bottomless abyss under the heavy snow.
The bright red paraglider opened, and the contestants began to fly towards the checkpoints hidden in the mountains at a speed of sixty kilometers per hour.
The howling north wind is biting, and the intertwined turbulence hides murderous intent.
One after another, the sharp mountain tops are like towering stalagmites growing out of the abyss. They are sharp and deadly. If you accidentally bump into them, the parachute rope will break and fall into the abyss, or in worst cases, you will die suddenly and turn into powder!
The Awakening of the Earth! Extreme Skydiving at the Swallow Cave of Moses--
Amidst the rumbling roar of the helicopter, a skydiver adjusted the cat-eared helmet on his head, took a deep breath, then hugged his shoulders with both hands, like a scepter from God, and fell freely towards the pupil of the green devil.
middle!
The strong feeling of weightlessness impacted his beating heart. The continuous surge of adrenaline and the violent wind almost made him breathless!
From his perspective, the swallow hole seemed to be only the size of a fist, like a bullseye on a green target.
And he must hit the bullseye perfectly in this only one jump, and land in a cave of only 400 meters with an umbrella in time to complete the challenge.
Succeed, or die.
In the evil eye of hell, there is no such thing as failure, because failure means no chance of survival!
Sea creatures for extreme surfing in the Sea of Cortez!
Players one after another race against death, ride on the waves, and conquer the huge waves amidst lightning and thunder...
The surging wind of wingsuit flying in Tianmen Mountain, China!
Countless players wore wingsuits like eagles and swallows, soaring in the nine heavens, passing over the green Tianmen Mountain, and flying towards Tianmen, known as the line of sky...
The Master of Life at Angel Falls Rock Climbing in Venezuela!
The successive Cat Hat players calculated the route and used their experience gained from conquering famous mountains and rivers countless times to climb the smooth and steep peaks that were almost straight up and down with bare hands...
Fall, drowning, accident, mistake.
On the way to challenge the limit, death always follows, harvesting the lives of players one after another.
but!
Players who came one after another organized themselves spontaneously and formed their own formations, sharing their gains in the challenge process and sorting out strategies that they had exchanged for only one life——
"The Birth of Heaven: Schematic diagram of wind direction turbulence and optional safe routes for the first 200 meters of taxiing"
"Earth Awakening: Motion Analysis of Fall Angle Considering Wind Speed"
"Emergence of Power: 85% Ridge Downhill Map Illustration (including markings of dangerous points and points where stunts can be performed), optimal route selection, and center of gravity control techniques"
"Master of Destiny: The optimal route map for 95% maximum physical strength, including physical consumption indicators and a list of available stunts"
"..."
There are endless strategies of all kinds.
From 5%, to 50%, to 90%...
The predecessors paved the way, and the descendants take advantage of it. Players spent their lives exploring the path one by one, just to conquer the eight peak events as soon as possible and uncover the mysterious easter eggs.
In this regard, let alone Pinnacle Kingdom’s production team Steel Chain Finger.
Even Director Gu Sheng felt outrageous, moved and helpless.
What touches me is the players' concern for the Cat Man incident and the unprecedented strong cohesion.
Unfortunately, a game is a game after all.
Yes.
After all, a game is a game, although now it seems that "Apex Kingdom" has almost achieved the real thing, giving players the most powerful immersion and experience in history.
However, it is composed of fixed codes after all, and is far from the randomness of real nature.
That is to say.
Among these seemingly impossible challenges, among the countless route choices, there must be one route that is the optimal solution, allowing players to complete the challenge without risk.
Just like a combination lock.
Speed, center of gravity, external force, route, physical strength, movement...
Although the password has many digits.
But there is always a set of passwords that are the key to opening the box.
After all, game levels are designed to allow players to pass them, not to set up a dead end to taunt players.
In fact, this is still very difficult.
After all, within a certain period of time, each player only has one attempt.
The completion of this challenge is related to winning the final prize.
So in theory, even if they fail, players are unwilling to share their experience - after all, after the cool-down period, I can still continue the challenge, right?
but!
The Cat Man Easter egg is out!
But it completely reversed the situation and ignited the enthusiasm of the players!
Bonuses be damned! I had to have a part in the Catman Easter egg reveal!
Almost overnight!
The players' individual battles have become divided into teams!
Perhaps a multi-digit password is quite difficult for a person to decipher.
But what if a hundred people solve it together?
What about a thousand people or ten thousand people?
One million people, two million people?!
Yes, two and a half weeks!
The number of players participating in the eight peak challenges has exceeded the two million mark!
With the terrifying bonus of up to 10 million U.S. dollars, more and more players are pouring in. Moreover, with the increasingly rich strategies, the progress of other challenges is also taking off.
Even as of eighteen days after the game was released, six of the eight peak challenges had been overcome!
When the news came, Gu Sheng wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.
What I want to cry about is that our Banla company went out collectively, traveled to five continents and four oceans, went to various places around the world to shoot scenes, collected the data with great effort, and built the map model so hard overnight!
The game was released less than a month ago, two million mad dogs came out of the cage, and bang bang bang cracked it for me?
That’s fucking outrageous!
As for the laughter, it was moved by the persistence of the players and the intangible achievements of this game——
They actually used one game to unite two million players around the world.
This is an unprecedented movement in the gaming industry. It is a good-faith contest between players and manufacturers. It is also the best embodiment of the brilliance of humanity among players.
In response, Gu Sheng could only shake his head helplessly and said -
…
"unity is strength,"
Shen Miaomiao put the plates into the dishwasher and summarized them incisively:
"You should have realized this when you posted this easter egg,"
"Not to mention those advanced players, even light players like me would want to contribute if conditions permit."
Hearing this, Gu Sheng, who was sitting on the sofa adjusting the projection, was startled and looked at Shen Miaomiao:
"You? You still contributed?"
"Hehe, of course!"
With a click, Shen Miaomiao turned on the dishwasher, turned around and put her hands on her hips, making a gesture that said, "It's going to break my heart"——
"I don't know what kind of easter egg you buried. Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I went to challenge [Sea Creatures]. I also posted in the forum group to share my experience!"
Gu Sheng:......
There is a mole in the company!
The brothers are struggling to compete with the players in a battle of wits and courage, trying to extend the cracking time of the eight peak items as much as possible.
Little did they know, the big boss of the company had already turned his elbow to Brother Moses, mingling with the players and participating in the Easter egg cracking activity.
"...6,"
Gu Sheng didn't know what to say, his head was buzzing, and he stretched out his hand to give a thumbs up:
"How did you feel? How far did you rush?"
"Probably... less than a hundred meters?"
As Shen Miaomiao said this, she skipped to the sofa, then jumped into the soft embrace of the sofa with a pop, and shook off her plush blanket:
"I have learned to surf before, but the climate at the challenge location was too harsh, with thunder and rain and heavy thunder."
"And as soon as I got into the water, the waves came up behind me. Good guys, you really dare to do this,"
"That big wave is so--so high!"
Seeing what little Nezha said was exaggerated, Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing and imitated Xiao Nezha's tone:
"Then - how high is that?"
"emmmmm..."
Shen Miaomiao pondered for a moment, then held the small blanket with both hands and lifted it up:
"It's so high! I can't run past it!"
Talking.
Little Nezha's blanket lay between the two of them.
Gu Sheng chuckled and did not see Shen Miaomiao's evil grin behind the blanket.
And the next second, I heard little Nezha’s voice:
"I couldn't outrun that big wave, and then..."
Whoop!
Shen Miaomiao stretched out the small blanket and pounced forward, covering Gu Sheng firmly in the blanket!
A giggle rang out: "I was immediately hit by the waves and sank to the bottom!"
"Hello!"
Gu Sheng was caught off guard, and the little Nezha covered his head in a blanket like a ghost, and a resentful voice sounded:
"Langpai you, you are filming me, right?"
And little Nezha’s giggles also came from outside the blanket:
"Of course! Why don't I make good use of this opportunity to take revenge on the designer?"
"This is me! Just have fun!"
"If it were someone else who took this opportunity to cover your head, you would be in trouble!"
Laughing and making fun.
During the projection, the number of people in Octane's live broadcast room also reached an unprecedented 380,000.
380,000 viewers!
To know!
In Twitch, a platform that displays the number of online viewers in real time, the number of viewers is all real and there is no trace of moisture.
In normal times, the peak number of people online in a most popular live broadcast room is around 20,000 to 30,000 at best.
If there is any event or competition, if there are more than 100,000 viewers, it will be considered the peak level of Twitch live broadcast.
But now!
Even before Octane's live broadcast has started, 380,000 people are already watching it online!
At such a time when it is not a holiday, it has created such a terrifying record of online live broadcasts.
Just because Octane will challenge the last two of the eight peak events in the next live broadcast——
【Master of Fate】【Ultimate Trust】
At the same time, this is also the only two challenges that have not been broken out of the eight global peak challenges so far.
Yes.
With the full cooperation of the players, Octane, who had completed the challenge for the first time, became the "peak challenger" recommended and supported by many players.
Under everyone's advice, Octane has been cautiously using its own account to challenge.
When he is not completely sure, he usually uses the account voluntarily provided by fans to challenge and become familiar with the route.
Then, when the time is right, he will switch back to his own account and start the peak challenge.
Maybe Cat Man's spirit in heaven is really blessing him.
So far, he has completed six of the eight challenges with countless help.
And today.
In the game's Angel Falls in Venezuela, he will complete the final two challenges——
Free-solo rock climb to Angel Falls, then jump into Impact Lake.
This.
It will also be the closest opportunity for millions of players in Pinnacle Kingdom to reveal the easter egg...
