Among the noisy crowd, the players with their names were as dazzling as fireflies on a summer night. Half a street away, Lin Bai saw the two people dressed as beggars.
then.
Lin Bai witnessed with his own eyes the whole process of [Laomi] and the two being beaten by beggars, stuffed into sacks, and then taken away.
Of course, he chose to remain indifferent.
The eyesight of ordinary NPCs is not that good. If you have changed from a handsome young man to a beggar, it is natural that he cannot recognize you. If you meet him in the future, he will not be able to find fault with you.
However, the more NPCs he came into contact with, the more Lin Bai felt that this was not like a world edited by a program.
Don't say anything else.
The division of labor between those beggars when arresting people was too clear.
Someone is responsible for diverting the attention of passers-by;
Someone secretly influenced the route of [Laomi] and the two of them, causing them to reach a remote place without knowing it;
Some people are responsible for beating sap, others are responsible for putting sacks...
The whole process was completed in one go, without any unnecessary movements. It seemed as if it had been practiced countless times and it was not too smooth.
Compare your heart to your heart.
Even if you put yourself in the position of [roasting rice], you can't escape this sap.
Can the underlying computing really achieve such smooth and streamlined operations?
not to mention.
Player actions are full of randomness and uncertainty...
This is a real world!
The thought of doubt rose again in Lin Bai's heart.
But if it were a real world, it would be unreasonable for the government to take no response measures even after two days of player arrival;
And if this is really a game, and the survival of players is so difficult, where is the playability of the game?
reality?
But this already violates the basic concept of game design.
On Earth, Lin Bai knew that many games were abandoned by players because they were difficult to get started.
He has also seen many games with rough graphics, but because they are easy to use, they are wildly sought after by players.
After all, making money from games cannot rely solely on professional players, but on ordinary people who rely on games for leisure and entertainment. It must make people happy!
In a busy life, who wants to be abused in games?
Layers of doubts left Lin Bai puzzled.
After much deliberation, Lin Bai couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it anymore.
After all, he is just a stranger in this world. He doesn't even understand the rules, so why worry about the operator?
From his point of view, he should wish that the more the game encourages people to quit, the better.
It is important to stay safe and secure.
Let’s consider the inside story when you have the strength!
…
As a novice village, the area of Jiamu City is actually not small, with six streets in each direction.
Going out from the west city gate, you will find high mountains and dense forests. It is said that ferocious beasts are rampant inside. Except for hunters, almost no one wants to go up the mountain.
A river runs through the city, dividing the city into north and south parts.
The area on the north side of the river is smaller, and is mostly home to some of the city's dignitaries and wealthy households. The area on the south side is three times that of the north side, and is mostly home to ordinary people.
Martial arts schools, blacksmith shops, carpentry shops, weaving, printing, escort agencies, and other industries that are looked down upon by the nobles in the city but highly sought after by players are all located on the south side of the city.
among many professions.
The martial arts gym is obviously more popular among players.
Killing players who are keen on competition and pursue destruction account for the majority of players.
For social players and achievement players, if they want to play happily in the Xianxia world, it is also necessary to master certain spell skills.
so.
For players, martial arts and spells are a necessity.
In Jiamu City, there are three martial arts schools open to the outside world and accepting disciples. The Zhang family martial arts gym teaches boxing. The name of the boxing method is Lian Lian Wu Xing Quan;
The name of the Mojia Sword Hall where swordsmanship is taught is called Mojia Sword;
The Wu Family Knife Studio, which is famous for its swordsmanship, is said to have a unique skill called Qianba Knife;
certainly.
You don't necessarily have to learn boxing when you enter a boxing gym. For example, there are still stick techniques, spear techniques, etc. in Zhangjia Boxing Gym, and boxing techniques must be at least core disciples before they are eligible to learn them.
In addition to recruiting apprentices, the three martial arts schools also have other businesses.
It is said that the Zhang family is supporting the Kuangfeng Gang, which controls the transportation industry in Jiamu City and surrounding cities.
The Mo Family Sword Hall was connected to the wealthy families in the city, and most of the disciples who came out of the sword hall were sent to the powerful as guards;
As for the Wu family, they have their own escort agency, and they seem to have connections with the military...
This is information that can be obtained on the surface. Whether there is a deeper background inside cannot be known by asking.
There were players lingering near every weapon, and Lin Bai saw about a dozen.
[Bitter Melon] [Lazy Cancer Late Stage] [Crazy Man] [Don’t Give in] and other names...
These players gathered together and discussed in pairs and threes how to join a martial arts gym and which profession was more suitable for development. They were all extremely excited.
Gamers enter this world with an entertainment mentality. In order to explore this world, it is normal to die once or twice and delete your account once or twice.
As long as the freshness of the game is still there and they suffer once or twice, they won't care at all.
…
Seeing so many players, Lin Bai had the feeling that this was a game world. Unexpectedly, there were many people in the closed beta test.
There was nothing going on, so Lin Bai pretended to be tired and mingled with them to collect the latest information.
If you know yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
Even if you don't interact with them for the time being, it is still necessary to conduct an investigation into the characters of these players in advance.
…
"The Wall-Breaking Martial Arts Gym requires a registration fee, and the game does not yet open recharge channels. The development team is too unfriendly to our internal beta players." [Bitter Melon] said.
"Basic martial arts is too much, so why don't we sign up directly? I bet that this kind of game that makes things difficult for players simply won't last until the later stages, and the game company will go bankrupt." [Don't give in] said.
"I think it's quite interesting. The harder the game, the more challenging it is!" [Crazy Man] said with a faint smile on his lips.
"Actually, I have a way to solve the registration fee, but it requires a little risk and a little trust." [Lazy Cancer Advanced Stage] glanced at a few people and said.
"Come on, tell me, if you're not afraid of death, are you still afraid of taking risks?" The interest of several people suddenly rose.
"Delete the account." [Lazy Cancer Late Stage] said.
"Is this a stupid method?" [Bitter Melon] said.
"The registration fee is 500 copper coins, and the system will give you 200 copper coins as an initial gift." [Lazy Cancer Late Stage] said leisurely, "We have four people now. Let the three people's money be concentrated in one person's hand. The remaining three will delete their accounts and reopen them. We
There was an extra six hundred copper coins, and each person deleted their account three times, so the registration fee for four people was enough."
"Wipe it!" The remaining three people exclaimed in unison.
"Understood, the adventure I am talking about is not taking risks inside the game, but outside the game." [Lazy Cancer Late Stage] glanced at the three of them, "You also know that it is not easy to get a private beta account. By deleting the account
If you come to brush money, it will easily attract the attention of the game company, and there is a certain risk of your account being banned."
The remaining three fell silent at the same time.
"You can do it." [Crazy Man] suddenly said, "The purpose of game internal testing is to test bugs and optimize the game experience. Deleting accounts and paying money is also a type of bug. They should thank us for discovering this loophole! It's better than
This vulnerability was discovered during public testing and is less harmful. If our account is blocked because of this, we will go to the forum to expose them..."
"It's done." [Bitter Melon] said, "When we have enough money, we will immediately report this vulnerability to the officials and get another reward from them."
"What a good idea." [Don't give in] said, "Such a stingy company should take advantage of them."
He paused and said, "Since we are all lucky enough to be together, why don't we form an alliance and advance and retreat together in the game? One person will be short-term and three will be long-term. Obviously one person cannot play this game. If we encounter each other in the future,
Whatever the problem is, we can discuss it."
"no problem."
"no problem."
The proposal of "Don't compromise" quickly received a response from everyone.
…
Lin Bai, who had listened to all their plans, was stunned.
These are the players who will do anything for the sake of the game. After they have earned enough money, they will report the loopholes and block the way for others...
Just now, Lin Bai complained about the difficulty of the game.
At this moment, he just felt that the difficulty of the game was still too low.
You know, he is an NPC now, and it is very likely that he will be tricked by this group of players...
