Outside the entrance of Magic City, a company that provides full simulation game scene reproduction and training, Zhang Miao and his group of five people stepped off the cable car and entered the venue with the warm reception of the reception staff.
"We not only provide full simulation training services for kobold mine copies, but also provide one-to-one reproductions of known game scenes and monsters. Look over there..."
The staff pointed to a hill under construction in the distance and said, "What does it look like to you?"
Zhang Miao answered uncertainly: "Chenxi Town?"
"Yes, it's Chenxi Town!" The staff clapped their thighs and said excitedly, "Our company's main business is to serve players like you. It doesn't matter if you can't clear the online missions. We will copy the mission scenes and processes and have professional
Team analysis and design means that no matter how difficult the task is, no matter how difficult it is to pass the level, with our help, it will be smooth sailing... this way, this way."
Zhang Miao and others looked at each other and followed them silently.
In just a short time, some people have seized such business opportunities and come up with such services. It has to be said that as long as they can make money, some people's sense of smell is more sensitive than that of dogs.
And it’s not just this one, as far as the orders Zhang Miao and the others received, there are more than a dozen companies in the whole demon world that are preparing to launch similar businesses. Smart glasses and other pseudo-metaverse access devices originally received a mediocre response. After the business opportunities in the Canaan world emerged,
Surprisingly, it came back to life, and similar orders were received softly.
Vigorous related industries have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, gradually radiating to high-end manufacturing. Even high-tech industries such as artificial intelligence, robotics, 5G, and the Internet of Everything are making profits and spending money.
The influx of a large amount of hot money has caused prices in Canaan to skyrocket. The price of copper coins has reached a high of 1:7, and there is still room for growth.
In this fanatical atmosphere, players are undoubtedly the most benefited group. A gaming helmet has been sold for tens of millions of dollars on the black market. It is even more exaggerated abroad. In terms of rice dollars and euros, the price is more than ten times that in China.
, and it’s still very affordable.
Profits drive people crazy, and when profits reach a certain level, they are enough to make people defy all rules and laws.
This kind of business is still under the sun. I don’t know how many things that cannot be seen are hidden in the dark. The most obvious example is the corruption case of Canaan Company. Only a small part is exposed above the water.
There may be an iceberg hidden underneath.
In this case, the players as a group cherish their own identity very much, especially people like Zhang Miao and Hu Xinmin who originally had nothing, they value it more than anything else.
Such a high-standard service is indeed free. Zhang Miao and the others are here to experience it, and the merchants are here to build a reputation. After all, players are only a very small group.
Making money from players is secondary, getting a ticket and squeezing into the vigorous new era trend is the fundamental thing.
At the entrance of a huge factory, experts from the technical team shook hands with Zhang Miao and the others, and there were also real tool workers who were busy putting on costumes and putting on makeup carefully and strictly. It was bustling inside and outside. At first glance, there were hundreds of people.
Serving 5 of them.
Next, Zhang Miao and the others visited the control room, director's room, computer room, IoT center, etc.
"Everyone is in his place..."
The entrance to the kobold mine was simulated in the factory, and the prop man who played the NPC was meticulous. It was really similar to the one in the game. Zhang Miao and the others wore earphones, listened to the director's instructions inside, took a deep breath nervously, and interacted with the NPC
After a semblance of dialogue, walk into the entrance of the 'Kobold Mine Dungeon'.
It's a one-to-one restoration, with a dark and depressing environment and a cramped and dark corridor. Even the candle in your hand is the same as in the game. However, considering the environmental difference (magic power) between reality and the game, the candle will not be extinguished easily. The built-in
The chip will control the flame generated by the battery, extinguish it when it should be extinguished, and then transmit the data to the analysis center, and then a team of experts will point out the areas where several people need to pay attention and make mistakes...
"They stole our candles"
"Kill the Penetrator"
"Maoqi God is the Greatest"
The kobold miners appeared, played by real people, and each one was very dedicated. They imitated the movements of the monsters in a decent way, attacking, retreating, chanting, screaming, dying... The artificial intelligence in the control center gave each attack and defense attributes and effects.
, just like playing a real-life sandbox game.
The first level has been coordinated countless times, both online and offline. Zhang Miao and the others are familiar with every detail here and are very skilled in cooperating. Gradually, everyone has found the rhythm in the game and can perform various co-ordination in a similar way.
.
It is no secret that games can improve players' physical fitness. This is also a key evidence for foreign doubts about "major technological breakthroughs." Zhang Miao is no longer an inactive otaku, and can perform some very difficult moves very well.
With a 360-degree backflip in the air, Zhang Miao dodged the attack of the tool man, and killed the advancing tool man with a sword. The remaining three actors soon drank in the fire of the five people. On the spot, the artificial intelligence judged, giving
After receiving a B+ evaluation, the director and technical experts began to analyze each of their actions and steps, and suggested areas that could be improved and done better.
After the experience, Brother Ruoran licked his lips and whispered, "How do you feel?"
“Looking at it again, I feel it’s almost boring,” Hu Xinmin said.
"It's impossible to completely simulate it," Zhang Miao said.
“Second floor”
The scene on the second floor started quickly, and the thick stone door slowly opened under the action of the motor. The darkness and coldness that greeted him made Zhang Miao feel in a trance that he was really in Canaan.
The second level is not so easy.
At this time, the difference from the real game copy becomes even more obvious.
The monsters in the dungeon are very intelligent, have attributes and skills, and even have origins and stories behind each one. This is reflected in every battle, what attack to use, what rhythm to use, whether to use a sneak attack or a strong attack, they are all different, and here
The actors can only act according to the script, which lacks real and random changes and is a bit rigid.
…
Training lasted until late at night.
Zhang Miao and the others have already used up their game time, so they can work overtime offline without any distractions. The difficulty of the dungeon has been lowered, and every player is holding their breath and trying to clear the level in the shortest possible time.
In this way, both offline and online, Bei Gaoyang's minimum requirements for warriors and professionals are getting closer and closer.
After returning home, Xie Changting asked how this model was, and Brother Ruoran said, just make do with it, and you won't know until you try it whether it works or not.
That’s right, no matter how well you practice offline, it’s all in vain if you can’t pass the level online.
“It helps a little, but not much, I think.”
"Then let's take another look and try it online tomorrow to try to get through the second level."
