"The Ninth Continent", strictly speaking, is no longer a game in the traditional sense. It can even be said to have broken through the definition of a game.
The biggest difference between this game and all games that have appeared in human history is that almost more than 90% of people today have to rely on it for their lives.
This covers a very wide range, including entertainment, learning, communication, career, etc. All the meanings of human behavior will be shown in "The Ninth Continent".
The reason is very simple. In today's human world, technology has become very advanced.
To what extent has development reached? For example, farmers in the traditional sense no longer need to turn their backs to the sky. As long as you have enough funds, you can buy an intelligent robot to help you work and even feed you.
Help you drink water and do anything for you.
Everything has its two sides. The remarkable development of science and technology has long exhausted the earth's resources. Today's humans have already implemented the alien immigration plan and already own five major galaxies, but the resources of these five major galaxies are also gradually depleting.
, the group of battleships looking for new stars are still on an interstellar journey. The last time they found a happy planet for survival was half a century ago. If no new resource planet is discovered in another twenty or thirty years, mankind will
It is very likely that it will face destruction.
If this side effect faces the most direct survival problem, then the other side effect is potentially more harmful. With today's technological level, the entire human race is in a state of doing nothing. For example, a young man has to do what he has to do every day.
There are basically only a few things to do, such as eating, sleeping, and having fun. You don’t need to do anything else yourself. As long as you have money, smart machines will do it for you. In layman’s terms, this is the most standard way of eating and waiting to die.
In this way, the most intuitive change of human beings is laziness. After all, the progress of science and technology makes human beings lazier. To apply Darwin's point of view, human beings have evolved over the long time of the universe and are evolving towards creatures like pigs.
, lost their thoughts and agility, did not struggle and study, and finally became a weak race in the universe that was slaughtered by others, which is undoubtedly very terrifying.
Based on this background, "The Ninth Continent" came into being. Its appearance solves these two side effects in one fell swoop, allowing everyone to enter the virtual world, stand on a fair starting point, work hard, challenge the limits, and regain
The significance of human survival, and this can also slow down the consumption of resources in the real world and buy as much time as possible for the search journey of the star battleship.
The most important point is that the money in "The Ninth Continent" is specifically authorized by the federal government and can be exchanged for credit points in the real world. To put it simply, if you want to live a better life in the real world, you have to "The Ninth Continent"
In "Continent", you have to work hard. Most people's current financial resources depend on your achievements in "The Ninth Continent".
People in prison are no exception, but prisoners are deprived of many human rights and only have three hours a day. This is indeed a benefit of prison - you have to work even in prison.
Unfortunately, this was the first time for Li Dalong, a freak, to enter "The Ninth Continent". After a series of old-fashioned retina scans, what appeared in front of him was a vast and beautiful space scene, which was obviously the login interface.
The interface shows the birth areas of the ninth continent: Obsidian Land, Justice League, Warrior Continent, Twisted Jungle, Hall of Genius, and Exile Land.
Unfortunately, the system prompts that the first five options are blocked, and only Exiled Land is available.
Although this is Li Dalong's first time entering, who doesn't know about "The Ninth Continent" now? So he has heard a lot about related matters.
"Why is this?" Li Dalong was puzzled.
The system's answer directly made him lose his temper: "Hello player, since you are currently using the access point within the jurisdiction of Black Spider, the main brain system will deprive you of some of your game rights. Now we will enter the physical evaluation stage."
The player's character in "The Ninth Continent" obtains starting attributes based on the player's own qualities, that is, innate attributes, which determines what career path is suitable for him. As for the acquired achievements, it all depends on your own efforts.
"The Ninth Continent" does not have any specific professions. It has a high degree of freedom. What kind of character you want to build yourself into depends entirely on your own experience and opportunities in the game.
But even so, after the exploration of countless senior players, professions are mostly related to their place of origin. Obsidian Land focuses on magic, scrolls and runes, Justice League focuses on gladiatorial combat, skills and combat power, and Warrior Continent focuses on assassination.
, stealth, thaumaturgy, and twisted jungle beasts are tamed, raised, and summoned, and those born in the Hall of Genius are particularly good at research and development, technology, and wisdom.
As for the Exiled Land, there is no big advantage in the general direction. To put it bluntly, it is a barren land. Only a group of hard-working people were born here, and it is certain that criminals will be born here.
"The place of exile is the place of exile!" Li Dalong sighed helplessly, and he quickly saw his level 1 attributes.
Life: 13 points;
Strength: 20 points;
Physique: 22 points;
Spirit: 9 points;
Movement speed: 18 points;
There are only 5 innate attributes, but as players practice and grow, new attributes will be developed one by one, depending on your chance and luck.
Another burst of old-fashioned white light flashed by, and Li Dalong finally set foot on the land of the Ninth Continent. Unfortunately, the picture that appeared in front of Li's eyes was a desert, with nothing around except the dazzling sun above his head.
, there are no people, no animals, not even any green weeds in the vast desert, just a piece of dead gray stone sand.
This can be regarded as one of the worst birth environments in history. Who calls you a criminal and deprived of human rights? Hell mode started as soon as you came out.
It took more than ten minutes for Li Dalong to finally understand the control interface and some basic conditions.
First of all, you have a permanent space baggage, into which the items you acquire will be placed. The size of the space depends on your strength and physique. The current capacity is 21 space units.
Secondly, the equipment is as follows:
A set of cloth armor for newcomers (including clothes and pants), +15 defense points;
A pair of straw sandals for newcomers, +5% movement speed;
Wooden stick, +5 attack power;
For a level 1 newcomer, this equipment is acceptable. After all, 15 points of defense is still good. There are monsters and mutated lizards in the sand, and the cloth armor can still withstand two or three hits of damage.
The mastermind system has various measures to protect newcomers. For example, there is a small map in Li Dalong's bag, which shows how to get to the nearby rough village.
The so-called rough village is indeed rough. There are a few tiled houses standing alone on a barren land. Not to mention how bad the houses are, they will probably fall down if the wind blows. However, there is a large open space in the center, which is the so-called trading square.
.
There were many stalls in the square, and there were also many people. Since Li Dalong had just arrived, he was very curious about the players coming and going in all kinds of fancy clothes, and kept looking at them furtively.
Not long after, the bald man finally arrived.
The bald head in the game has obviously beautified his appearance. The originally vicious appearance has been transformed into a handsome and elegant face in "The Ninth Continent", which looks a bit like a young man from a troubled world, because he wears Teng armor and wears a long sword at his waist.
, the luster of the calfskin boots on the feet is very eye-catching.
But why did Li Dalong recognize the bald head at a glance? The reason is very simple. The bald guy has six big characters on his head: "I have Alzheimer's disease." This is a small function of the control panel. Players can expose their names, but under normal circumstances,
Everyone will choose to hide, and no one will reveal their identity until they have enough to eat.
The bald man did not come alone. There was another person behind him. He also had rattan armor on his body, but what he carried on his shoulder was a brown birch longbow with strong lines. The name on the top of his head was quite personal - "Contra"!
After meeting Li Dalong, the two quickly hid their names, and Contra took the initiative to speak: "Brother Dumb, is this your friend?"
Hearing this, Li Dalong felt warm in his heart. It was obvious that Baldhead had mentioned to Contra before that Li Dalong would come as his friend.
Warmth is warmth, but Li Dalong feels very strange. Although he has never been in prison, he knows a lot of anecdotes about the prison, such as the prison boss and the like, but the bald brother does not seem to have any ill intentions towards him.
On the contrary, he is somewhat friendly.
Everyone knows these days that it is very dangerous to go out alone in the game. It is really difficult for newcomers to break into the world without a friend to guide them. As for the kind of person who can conquer the world alone, I'm sorry.
Please wake up first.
"Show me your innate attributes." Baldhead asked.
There is no need to elaborate on this small function. In "The Ninth Continent", the data generated by team formation, transactions, dungeons and other actions between players can be displayed or hidden.
"What are my attributes?" Li Dalong very much hopes that he will have the legendary GM (Chicken Grandma) attribute, and from then on he will make all kinds of arrogance in the world, although he knows that this possibility is slim.
The bald head glanced and nodded: "You are in good health."
Li Dalong was a little disappointed. He could see it through the expressionless face of his bald head. This was a comforting word.
In fact, he was wrong, very wrong. The bald man looked calm on the surface, but in his heart he was extremely surprised. To be precise, he was even a little horrified.
Li Dalong's innate attributes are not only "not bad", they are simply "very good", and even somewhat "defying the heavens". At the very least, he has never seen anyone with such powerful innate attributes.
