Vincent laughed heartily: "Okay, you should already understand the core concept of this game. Now let me explain some details." The big screen behind him changed following the content of his speech: "This
This is an overhead view of New York State. What you see in front of you is a land of more than 1,200 square kilometers. For those of you who cannot use the ability, I think it is indeed a bit big, so I reduced the game area."
Regardless of everyone's reaction to the words "cannot use abilities", he pointed to a map that became darker on the big screen and said: "Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens, these four places are combined.
Together we will serve as your game area. I have left teleportation points in many places, but they are a bit difficult to find. You need to use the 'game assistant' on hand and your own wisdom to find some clues." He looked back at everyone: "When
After you find and enter the teleportation point, you can leave New York 'temporarily' and go somewhere else to complete a puzzle. As for where you will go, I don't know exactly. All puzzle-solving spaces come from
In the short but extremely rich history of fantasy of mankind.”
"Every time you solve a puzzle, you will get a clearance reward, and the more clearance rewards you get, the closer you are to victory." He suddenly smiled: "Oh, don't forget, 'Sword Hunting' is the basic core of the game.
It will help you when solving puzzles."
Woody smiled obscenely at this time and said: "Hehe... Well, it's useless to say more. For those FAQs and the like, you can check the 'Game Assistant'. I and the technical consultants of the parliament spent a lot of thought to create it.
Those things in your hands must be protected as assets more valuable than your own life." He pushed up his glasses that glowed with white light: "Also, from now on, don't think that you are still on the earth.
.This is both 'New York' and not 'New York'. As Vincent said before, we naturally have many ways to prevent you from 'staying where you are' waiting for a winner to emerge."
The four of them disappeared suddenly after saying what they needed to say, leaving only the contestants and their respective consultants standing in the empty Times Square at a loss.
There is no obvious hostility between the people, but as the saying goes, it is necessary to be on guard against others. Neither of them knows the details of the other party, so it may not be that easy to form allies.
"Comrade!"
"Comrade!"
Wang Xu and Li Yadi's eyes were shining, and they looked like they were sorry for meeting each other late. They held each other's hands for a long time, just like they were meeting with national leaders.
"I'm the same size as you!" Master Mao rushed over, grabbed Wang Xu by the back of his neck and dragged him away.
"Dimi, it's time for us to set off." A fat man chewing popcorn patted Liardi on the shoulder. He seemed to be Liardi's adviser.
Watching these two go their separate ways, the other players from each group also shrugged their shoulders and walked in their own directions...
After Wang Xu was dragged out of three streets by the cat master, Wang Xu finally gave up the struggle and said: "Hey... are you mistaken? Everyone has no psychic ability, but you still have such good physical strength?"
The restrictions they encountered this time were so thorough that even Wang Xu's power of dominance had disappeared, and the strength of the physical and spiritual unity no longer existed. It could be said that the two of them were now completely ordinary people.
Master Cat suddenly stopped and let go. Wang Xu stumbled and almost fell down, but Master Cat just pretended not to see him and said: "Take out your game assistant."
Wang Xu was stunned: "What about a hatchet?" He said with a look of disdain: "I said that the four-eyed guy of yours who hurt your friend is also quite capable of talking nonsense. He also put a lot of thought into making it. What he made was either daily necessities or other things.
Toy... maybe I can get the hatchet because of the close relationship between you two. After all, it can still be regarded as a weapon..." He said as he touched his waist, but his expression changed suddenly when he touched the thing.
:"what's the situation?!"
What Wang Xu pulled out was no longer a hatchet, but a GAMEBOY.
"He's transformed!" Wang Xu's expression was very funny.
Mr. Cat looked as usual, without any surprise: "Turn on the switch and try."
Wang Xu complied dully, and then a line of words appeared on the ultra-small black and white screen: "Phoenix".
Mr. Cat glanced at it and immediately said: "Follow me." After saying that, he took a step forward.
Wang Xu said: "What? Where? What are you doing? What do you know?" Although he asked a series of questions, he did not stop and followed closely behind Mr. Cat.
Mr. Cat said as he walked: "Foreigners do not distinguish between 'phoenix' and 'phoenix'. In their language, Phoenix is a firebird that can be reborn in flames. From the different shapes of its tail feathers, you can see the phoenix in Western legends."
It’s two different things from the Phoenix in the East.”
"Hmm...does this have anything to do with the current situation?"
Mr. Cat continued: "The display on your game assistant is in English, so it is clear that this prompt has nothing to do with the Nine Heavens Mysterious Girl, the King of Birds, the Dragon, the Buddha, etc. Thank God, if it is the Oriental
In Phoenix, the amount of clues that need to be filtered is too huge.
All in all, at present, Phoenix has four possible meanings: first, fire; second, rebirth; third, place name; fourth, flight.
Times Square is in Manhattan, and Vincent gave us four areas. Although he didn't say it himself, I think it's 80% likely that these four areas represent the four worlds in "The Sword".
The fourth possibility I just mentioned, 'Flight', should have something to do with the 'World of Air', but the first three possibilities all point to the answer of 'The World of Fire'.
So, conclusion - when we are in Manhattan, the first prompt we get from the game assistant is that this is the 'Fire World'."
Wang Xu spent more than a minute and finally caught up with his train of thought, and then asked: "Hey... the place name refers to Phoenix City in the United States. This clue is not clear. Why does it point to the Fire World?"
Mr. Cat replied: "On the contrary, this is the extended thought that makes me conclude the most. Phoenix is called 'Hoozdo' in the language of the local Indians, which means a hot place."
"You still understand Indian language?!"
"That's called Navajo. Different Indian tribe civilizations have different languages. Don't ask stupid questions. How can there be a completely unified 'Indian language'? If all Indians speak one language, Wind Language
Hasn’t the author’s password been cracked long ago?”
The corner of Wang Xu's mouth twitched: "You didn't understand the point of my question just now... Forget it, anyway... this is the world of fire, right? You'd better tell me first, where are we going?"
"Atziluth."
"speak English!"
"Vincent's tip is very important. The fire world is designed based on the Kabbalah tree of life diagram, and he just showed us a bird's-eye view of New York. The area of Manhattan looks like a long and narrow area from the map.
small island, then I would vertically arrange the island in the order of upper city, middle city, and lower city in my mind to form an upright rectangle, and then overlap the tree of life graphic with it. Then, we only need to go to the map
The position of Atziluth is enough." Mr. Cat glanced at him: "By the way, the so-called Atziluth is the 'divine world'. In the Kabbalah tree of life system, there are four levels of fire, wind, water, earth, and the world of fire.
It is the highest level and most perfect in this system. It is the basis for the creation of other worlds, and represents the pure soul and thought, as well as the will of God. Of course, it is said that Adam and the devils all live in this realm..."
"What do you mean... you are spreading knowledge about EVA."
Mr. Cat snorted coldly: "Tch...don't take ignorance as a personality. The tree of life diagram in EVA is upside down. They want to return the material world to the spiritual world, break the 'wall of the heart' of people, and follow
What I'm talking about are two different things. So I said that today's young people just sit there and stare at the computer screen all day long, and they don't know how to read more books to cultivate their sentiments. Like "Genesis", "
"Revelation", and Dante's "Divine Comedy" and the like, what a great book!"
Wang Xu looked dull: "I read "The Invincible Mandarin Duck Legs" when I was a child, the illustrated version. There was also a domestic movie of the same name in the 1990s. I also watched it. Is it considered to cultivate my sentiments?"
Mr. Cat looked at him with even more contempt: "If you can use a few tricks now, your youth will not be wasted in vain."
"Okay, stand still, don't hide."
Master Cat said: "First deal with the group of guys behind you, and then think about kicking your own people."
Wang Xu turned his head after hearing this, and he actually saw... a large group of zombies, crowding the entire street, and groups of twos and threes slowly came out of the streets and alleys.
"I understand...it's New York, but it's not New York, and there's also 'can't stay where you are'. The result is such a way of playing..."
Master Cat said: "Aren't you afraid? If you don't leave, you will be surrounded."
Wang Xu laughed loudly: "What's so scary about zombies? Even if you don't have psychic powers, you can always deal with them by just copying a few things. Haven't you seen zombie movies? These idiots are slow to move.
Low IQ..." As he spoke, the zombies were gradually approaching.
"Hmm... It seems that these zombies are an enhanced version. They can move a little faster than ordinary zombies, but that's about it." Before he could finish his words, the zombies at the front suddenly let out wild beast-like sounds.
roared, then accelerated wildly, running like a sprinter.
"F*ck!" Wang Xu yelled and was about to shout to Mr. Cat: "Run!" But when he looked back, he found that Mr. Cat had already run fifty meters away alone...
