Chapter 132 Start climbing the wall! (Second update)
It was pitch dark and eerily quiet. Liu Liang looked around and saw that there was no other way to go. He could only walk towards the hut closest to the garbage mountain.
The house was extremely messy, with garbage and debris everywhere.
Moreover, there was no light at all in the room, which was darker than outside, and the outlines could only be barely distinguished.
At this moment, a sharp rustling sound of electricity sounded, making Liu Liang jump in fright.
"Oh my god! What the hell!"
The immersive feeling of VR technology with conscious connection is really strong.
Liu Liang looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was a small device, a bit like a walkie-talkie and a bit like a radio, which was making a sound.
"No matter who you are, if you can hear my voice, go up immediately! Up is the only way out... People outside need to know the truth..."
The sound was intermittent, and soon no signal was received, leaving only rustling.
In addition, there are other things on the table next to it that are also shining slightly.
Liu Liang picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was a night vision camera that could be worn on the head. It was very light and had a socket on it that could plug in a specific type of square battery. It was on the side of the night vision camera, and it was easy to reach.
Can be touched.
Wear the night vision device and use two straps to secure the night vision device to your head, so you don’t have to worry about it falling during strenuous exercise.
The night vision device can be pushed upwards and rests on the forehead like flying goggles without blocking the field of view. Pulling it down will automatically turn on the night vision function, and a flashing red REC logo will appear in the field of view, indicating that the video is being recorded.
"Isn't that okay... Hey, it's really okay!"
Liu Liang tried to nod his head sharply, relying on inertia to drop the night vision glasses, and found that it was really possible, and even a little cool.
He looked at the small radio again, and was a little hesitant to take it with him. But after playing with it for a while, he found that it did not have a battery compartment, could not hold batteries, and it stopped working after a while. It was obviously not a critical item, so he didn't.
Take it with you.
In VR games, since all props can be interacted with, players can carry empty buckets and chairs encountered on the roadside, so there have been many mistakes in the past.
Players mistakenly believe that certain props must be carried, and end up packing themselves up, but the props they really need to pass the level are never found.
Therefore, game manufacturers quickly clarified the relevant mechanisms. All useful props must have light effect prompts to avoid players getting the wrong idea.
At present, it seems that this night vision device should be the only prop in the early stage.
"Walking with Darkness" does not have a novice guide in the conventional sense. It is guided by corresponding game mechanisms during the game process.
For example, this night vision device is placed in a small eye-catching house in the first scene. Players can basically see it when they walk over.
Even if the player may not notice it, there will be a dark level ahead. The player will definitely realize something is wrong after walking in the dark for a while, and then go back and search, and they can still find it.
If the player just groped in the dark and miraculously walked over...
All I can say is, if you don’t want to take it, just don’t take it. Since you can walk this part of the way in the dark, you should be able to walk the rest of the way in the dark as well. Just be happy with it.
As a player with a normal brain circuit, Liu Liang must be cautious and cautious in horror games.
He turned on the night vision device and took a look, and found that this piece of crap lost power very quickly, and the night vision effect was beyond words.
After turning it on, not only will the field of view become narrower than before, but there will also be various overexposed snowflakes in the picture, and some light places will become very bright and dazzling.
All in all, the field of view of this night vision device is similar to the picture seen by those night vision cameras in reality. Although it can indeed see the darkness clearly, it does make people feel uncomfortable.
"Is there no self-defense guy in this game?"
Liu Liang felt very insecure. He rummaged around the room for a long time, but he didn't find any physical weapons such as crowbars or steel pipes. He only found an old wooden table leg.
This crap thing seemed useless, but Liu Liang still held it in his hand to give himself a little sense of security.
After leaving the hut, where to go next is a question.
"That message on the radio told me to go up. Go up...how?"
At this time, he was at the bottom of the lower slums, with only a few huts in front of him surrounded by mountains of garbage.
It is definitely not possible to climb the garbage mountain, so the only way up is through these huts.
But after Liu Liang turned on his night vision goggles and walked through a dark alley, he found a dead end ahead.
"...Are you kidding me?"
Liu Liang looked up, with a confused look on his face.
I didn't see anything similar to a ladder, just a makeshift platform about one person high beside the wall.
There is an eye-catching yellow paint sign above the platform, which can be seen even in dim light. And below the horizontal sign, there is a yellow upward arrow as a reminder.
The walls at other locations are higher, and they are all at such a height that you can't touch them even if you jump.
"Is it possible that you want me to jump up from here??"
With the mentality of giving it a try, Liu Liang jumped down hard and really grabbed the edge of the platform with both hands.
Then, he tried his best to make a pull-up position, and stepped on the wall with his feet to borrow some strength. Although the posture with his butt sticking out was a bit inelegant, he still managed to climb up.
Use the same method to reach the roof of this hut.
"Huh, isn't this a horror game? Why are you still climbing the wall? Although the basic physical fitness of the characters in this game is good, but... it's still a bit too difficult for me!"
The game will increase the player's physical fitness, otherwise this step alone will screen out more than 90% of people in reality.
Those who stay at home all year round and are inactive will simply not be able to climb up.
However, the physical fitness has been increased, and the muscle memory necessary for some actions cannot be instilled in players.
Therefore, how players specifically climb and whether they can bring out their best physical qualities in the game still depends on their real-life experience.
Some trained athletes or parkour players obviously have an advantage.
Of course, ordinary players can’t say that they can’t play it at all.
Because they have more or less performed similar actions in other VR games, at least they still have a little bit of muscle memory; not to mention that they can also practice repeatedly in the game world, which is nothing more than a little more learning cost so that they will not get stuck.
However, compared to other VR games, "Walking with Darkness" has obviously stricter restrictions.
If it were for other games, this high platform might only be made into a type that can be jumped on casually to ensure the maximum gaming experience for players.
But "Walking with Darkness" tends to use just the right level of difficulty to force players to learn and exercise.
As the game progresses, it is not the attributes of the characters that improve, but the skills of the players themselves.
The lessons I skipped in other VR games now have to be made up for.
Liu Liang originally thought that this action was quite troublesome, but as he continued to climb up, he realized where he was now.
The subsequent actions are each more outrageous than the last!
Walking on the simple boardwalk built between the two huts, the board itself was only about 20 centimeters wide and creaked as he walked on it. Liu Liang felt that his legs were shaking. It took him about five minutes to walk.
Went through successfully.
Use both hands to grab the hanging rope and climb up from the hut to a higher two-story building.
Then use the bulges on the wall of the small building to climb up and reach a higher roof.
Then, he jumped over a large hole with a distance of two meters and came to the opposite side of the roof.
There is even a section of road that is made up of exposed beams. Players need to jump accurately and step on the beams to move forward. Although it is only two or three meters away, looking down and looking down at the height of several meters, it still makes Liu
Liang was so scared.
In addition, there are various level designs that resemble parkour and rock climbing.
Liu Liang can roughly feel that the difficulty of these basic levels is constantly increasing.
At first, it was just a matter of simply climbing up the platform, then climbing ropes, climbing walls, and then jumping in specific scenes...
Not only are the actions becoming more and more difficult, but players are also increasingly required to speed up.
Players can slowly climb the wall, but when it comes to jumping over the big hole, they must take a running start.
This is to allow players to adapt to the feeling of flying.
Liu Liang cautiously conquered these levels. His fear of the dark and his fear of heights merged at this moment. Even before any scary monsters appeared, he was already a little overwhelmed.
"Isn't this a horror game? Why do you keep asking me to climb the wall?"
