0295 Chapter Seven: The Wisdom of Mortals (Section 1)
In the classroom of the Department of Archeology, everyone put down what they were doing and focused their attention on Zhen Cheng's desk, which was a wonderful blend of avant-garde colors and simple style.
Even all kinds of Okas quietly gathered around, huddled in desks, attached to the roof, and even wrapped themselves around the blood candles that ordinary apprentices couldn't even touch.
The cat's head poked curiously, blinking several eyes to look around.
"Pull a card." Zhen Cheng looked solemn, put his left thumb on his temple and gently pressed it, and gently tapped the desk with his right index finger and middle finger.
Then, two cards with complex magic circles printed on the backs appeared out of thin air between her fingers. It was obvious that the patterns on the backs of this deck were not just decorations.
This was the seventh day after her return to extracurricular teaching for the first time. After that, it could be said that she had made no progress in the extraordinary way, because Qu Yun spent all her teaching time on teaching her to play chess.
Until today, Qu Yun said that she would conduct a public assessment of her studies during this period in the class class. This made Zhen Cheng have to seriously consider whether the guy's decision to train her into a god in three months was
It's just nonsense.
"Use Investigation - Sister Mina." Zhen Cheng took out a card with a red magic circle on the back from his palm and threw it on the table.
On the dark front of the card, you can see two silver-white Chinese characters - "Investigation".
The card slid across the table for a few centimeters, and then spontaneously ignited without warning starting from the two Chinese characters for "investigation".
Two seconds later, the silver-white flames dissipated. The burned card showed no signs of damage, but the front with the text printed on it turned into the back with the magic circle printed on it.
The magic circles on the backs of all cards are the same, at least when viewed with the naked eye. However, the magic circles on the backs of different types of cards have different colors to distinguish them.
After the red [Investigation] card is used, the front and back sides of the card are reversed, turning into a dark green [Intelligence] card.
Yuyanqi is said to be a game invented by Qu Yun a long time ago, and it is of great help to brain development.
I have to say that this is indeed an extremely interesting game. If he didn't have the idea of saving his hometown, and if he didn't have to have a near-death "extracurricular teaching" soon, Zhen Cheng really wouldn't mind playing this thing twice a day.
But to say that it can really help extraordinary people improve their realm, Zhen Cheng doesn't believe it at all, and he can't feel it at all.
Under Zhen Cheng's common sense understanding, this kind of game that can be participated in without using the Gate of Truth, without resorting to extraordinary power, and just using the brain to think, cannot have anything to do with the sublimation of the level of life.
In short, this thing is a bit like the "killing game" used to train spies in the home world. Victory is achieved through reasoning and psychological games. However, Yuyan chess is much more complicated and interesting.
Different from the board games on Earth that Zhen Cheng is familiar with, this god's game first contains a script that she thinks is almost ruthless. First, she needs to extract a background story and the goals that her character needs to pursue in the background.
.
Then, Yuyanqi will automatically generate the corresponding N-P-C. Next is the most interesting part. The N-P-C characters in each game have their own reasonable personalities, motivations, and behaviors.
What the players have to do is to combine vertical and horizontal lines in a limited number of rounds and achieve their goals through interaction with N-P-C.
In other words, Yuyanqi is somewhat like a tabletop role-playing game on Zhen Cheng's hometown of Earth. Players can use their imagination to try everything that the characters they play in the game can do.
There are two main differences. First, the success of the action is not determined by the dice, and the direction of the plot is not subjectively controlled by the DM, who plays the computer in the board game.
Instead, according to Qu Yun, every background in the game has been completely interpreted identically from the real world.
Whether the result of the player's action is successful or not is entirely determined by the player's understanding and judgment of the drawn world background and the various characters included in it.
In Yuyan Chess, it is impossible to pass the level simply by using your imagination and whimsical ideas. Only choices that have been proven to be successful in reality can be achieved.
It includes all the fantastic ideas, as well as most of the normal deduction analysis.
As for how to design a game and test all the possibilities of the same scene almost infinitely in reality, this is not what Zhen Cheng can understand.
But she has a conjecture. Even for an almighty person, the lowest cost and most realistic way to achieve this goal is to make a certain corner of the real world shrink in time and have the plot happen simultaneously with the game.
things.
And secondly, the difficulty of playing chess is... very abnormal.
Zhen Cheng tapped the table twice with his knuckles, inserted his fingernails under the row and gently picked up the cards to turn them over.
The back of the dark green magic circle was pressed onto the table. At the same time, everyone saw the writing on the front that was originally pressed below:
Motivation: Discover the hidden secrets of Semiol Monastery
Deeper Motive (New Information): Saving Brother-Baron Kelvin
Background (including new information): Mina is past middle age, but she is a newly promoted nun in Semiol Monastery. After the daily tedious prayer ceremony, she often wanders alone in the monastery late at night. People say that she is looking for someone.
What, people say her cold face is full of sadness.
Zhen Cheng let out a long sigh and a smile appeared on her lips. She almost gave up the game, but she got a chance in the penultimate round.
Her clearance mission is to "assassinate the bishop without suspicion." For Zhen Cheng's mind, completing this in this small scene with only six characters does not seem to be a difficult task.
But as she approached the end of the game's time limit round after round, she realized how deep the background of this game was.
Time is so tight that you can't make a wrong step in every round.
In fact, when Zhen Cheng investigated the character card "Sister Mina" for the first time in the second round, he already realized that there was definitely something wrong with this character.
After all, the motivation of "exploring the secrets of a specific place" is untenable in itself. No one would suddenly want to study the secrets of a certain place.
Anyone who has such a motive, even if they don't say that they have any connection with that place, must at least get an opportunity to "have a problem somewhere", right?
This leads to another story. In other words, this character card definitely has the value of further exploration.
However, the real problem with this educational chess game is that there are too many similar problematic characters. So many... each of the six plot characters has a story that can be continuously explored.
