Chapter 1872 Small Cubicle
[Inquisition and Debate] almost disrupted the rhythm of every player's game.
I have to admit that the above sentence is indeed an indisputable fact. After all, even those super new players who are not qualified to participate, or those who missed the first round of the individual competition and did not advance Players who have arrived at the main event still maintain a great degree of enthusiasm for this event.
So it is foreseeable that in the craze of watching the game in the next few days, there will definitely be very few players who can maintain normal gameplay, and [Innocence Bound] is the kind of player who has a good relationship with NPC. The relationship between the two games is very close, and they can even influence each other to a considerable extent, so that it is not only the players who are affected by this round of shocks, but even some NPCs are obviously aware of the abnormalities in their daily lives.
Of course, the magnitude of this abnormality is very small. On the one hand, it is because the game has just started one day, so even if someone has lost contact for a long time inexplicably, it will not surprise everyone. On the other hand, Although Innocence Bound is already the most popular in the world One of the games, but after throwing this huge player base into the Innocence Continent, it becomes less conspicuous. In fact, even if we randomly capture a hundred NPCs in one go, there is a possibility that they have interacted with players. There are only two, and even fewer have deep connections with players.
To sum up -
"The influence of you guys who play games is still not big enough..."
It was about to dawn, in a small bar cubicle in the Free City , a girl with beautiful long golden hair and a face that was prettier than her hair sighed faintly, then tightened her gray cloak and complained to her friends around her: "Speaking of which, this little broken private room is too It’s cold, is this how people in the Free City do business?”
The girl with rare long aqua hair, who was sitting at the broken wooden table in the middle and reading a book, smiled. He said softly: "You know better than anyone else that I don't want to do a drink business at all, so why bother asking questions even though you know the answer? As for whether it's cold or not, I'm afraid you won't be able to tell me if I freeze to death here. A sneeze."
"Because saliva has no cost."
The Saint of Fortune who appeared in the Capital of Freedom for unknown reasons and whose identity was obviously hidden, Fairy Graham shrugged, raised her slender white index finger and shook it, and said seriously: "We can't be too human. Every penny has to be compared, no matter how much money you drink, you don't need it. Regardless of Qian's smiling face, you have to take it out when it's time to take it out. Also, even if I don't freeze to death easily, it doesn't mean I'm not afraid of the cold without using magic, whether it's high-level or epic. Well, even if you are stronger than ordinary people, you still need to eat and drink.”
Since entering the realm of innocence, she has been hanging out with Feiyali. The girl whose nickname in the game is "Qing Qing Apple Fragrance" blinked and asked concisely: "So actually there is something missing. A sense of ceremony?”
“No, but you must You can call me pretentious.”
Fiyali stretched out and leaned weakly on the back of the chair, as expressionless as a hawker who had just taken a break after working all day. Shout: "So - tired - ah -"
Boom! ! !
An angry muffled sound came from next door, which not only expressed dissatisfaction with the girl's loud noise, but also revealed the fact that the sound insulation here was extremely poor.
“Hey, this boss has such a bad temper.”
Fiyali shrank her neck, carefully looked back at the wall behind her that was more leaky than it looked, and said sarcastically Muttered: "I will definitely give him a bad review when I turn around."
Qing Qing Apple Xiang shrugged, then looked down at the book on her lap titled "Septic Blood Princess" "With the Seven Gray Dwarves", Liu frowned slightly and said: "Are you sure this is a reading book that has been around for hundreds of years, and not the product of a player who got sick?"
"I am sure that this book is at least three hundred years old. Although it is not widely circulated, it is definitely not a 'new book' that only appeared within a year."
Fiyali shrugged and added: "But I also don't deny that this book may indeed be written by a player like you. After all, the logic in the story seems to be self-consistent at first glance. The Blood Seeker Princess and the The setting of gray dwarves is also grounded enough, but no matter what, the 'original copy' I spent a lot of money to acquire is inconsistent with the style of bard fairy tales of the past ten centuries, and there are These terms...are more in line with the habits of your players."
Qing Qing Apple Xiang rubbed her forehead in confusion and shook her head: "But this doesn't make sense, after all, [The Realm of Innocence]. The game’s server launch time is less than a year.”
“So there are a few possibilities——”
Fiyali moved a stool and got there. Next to the friend, he lowered his voice and said to the latter at a decibel that could not be heard next door: "First of all, assuming that [Innocence Bound] has a closed test, then the game makers are very likely to set some settings in it during the process. Easter eggs, when the operator can freely control the time ratio between the game world and the real world, this operation is actually not difficult. ”
Qingqing. Ping Pingxiang nodded and said softly: "What you said does make sense. [Innocent Bound] is a rare game that is directly launched without any external testing, but there must be internal testing. If you have tens of thousands of Years of history were calculated by the matrix in just a few years, so it makes sense to include some easter eggs in the open beta, but I always feel..."
"I always feel that things shouldn't be that simple. After all, every NPC including me doesn't feel like a mere artificial intelligence."
Fiyali followed the scent of apples very naturally. He continued speaking without any wavering in his tone: "In other words, even if some artificial intelligence can do this, To this extent, it is impossible to have the huge number of NPCs in the entire [Innocent Realm]. What's more, I have also focused on investigating the situation of some newborns on the first day of Lan Zhiyue Chant, which is the second day after the server was launched. I found that They are no different from children in common sense. If you think about it from this perspective, things are even more outrageous. After all, AI and AI Giving birth to a small AI or something... This is not scientific, this is magic!"
"The first thing I want to complain about is that you, a 'local' spell caster, have absolutely no position to say that it is 'magic'."< br>
Qing Qing Apple Xiang hit Feiyali on the head with the spine of her book, and said helplessly: "Then, I feel You, the NPC, have almost become more like a player than me, a player. Even if I have been cooperating with you to bring in outside knowledge and common sense, and even silently wrote a few books, this kind of thing is too..."
“It’s nothing. Do you know how long it took me to learn Elvish?”
Feiyali rubbed the tip of her nose and said proudly: "Half a month! It only took us half a month to master speaking and singing in Elvish!"
Qingqing Apple Xiang frowned: "Don't change the concept secretly. It's really amazing to learn and sing in a new language in half a month, but to completely integrate an unfamiliar worldview into your own cognitive system within a year, this kind of Things..."
"This kind of thing is difficult, but if you really want to do it, it's not impossible."
Fiyali took out a storage ring from her. A small thermos cup, while sucking it, he said lightly: "If you want to make money and live a good life, you can't be tired..."
"Heh."
Noticing the inconsistency in Feiyali's painting style, the casual player who until now had only mid-level strength and whose main profession was not even level 30, smiled meaningfully and said: "Is this a true expression of true feelings?"
Fiyali smiled casually and spread her hands indifferently: "You think so, but it's a pity that compared to the characters in the story who have been burdened with so many tragedies, I was just a relatively poor child when I was a child. Even if the true feelings are revealed, the things exposed will not be on the stage. It is better to show the shoulders, collarbones and thighs. "
"You are just talking about it."
Qing Qing Apple Xiang pursed her lips and smiled, and asked casually: "But having said that, I didn't expect that the saintly girl of the Wealth Sect lived in poverty when she was a child."
"What? Only now do I feel about my past. Interested? ”
Feiyali smacked her lips, and then shook her head lightly and said: "This is actually normal. How many people are born as God's favored ones? It's much better now. If it were a few hundred years ago, they would be in their teens or twenties. It is too early to be discovered by a sect and be favored by a god at the age of 10. After all, many people are considered qualified It’s enough, and it’s possible to stay outside God’s sight for the rest of your life.”
Qingqing Pingxiang nodded noncommittally, and changed the topic cooperatively: “So, you won’t really be here. Are you worried that your arrangements for player customers will fall into your hands?" "Of course not? Yes, after all, according to the information you provided, the popularity of [Innocence Realm] is far from reaching its peak, and the 'outsiders' in everyone's eyes have only just received attention, and everything is still under development, not to mention ..."
Fiyali smiled slyly He stood up and winked at the scent of apples: "Isn't our 'little treasury' gradually getting richer?"
The latter sighed, shook his head and said: "That's what I say, But I always feel that you are a bit too leisurely as a hands-off shopkeeper.”
"Look what you said."
Fiyali's eyes widened with an innocent face, and she tilted her head cutely: "Obviously I have tried my best to provide resources, manpower, material resources, channels, and even even The pricing was all taken care of by myself, and in the end, everything was taken care of by you. Xiangxiang, do you still have any dissatisfaction?” Looking at his NPC friend, [dissatisfaction] was written all over his face.
"Ahem...Okay, okay, I admit that you are busy with the things 'over there'."
Fiyali scratched her cheek awkwardly and dragged the other person. He shook his arm as if to please: "Or, can I give you some shares?"
Upon hearing this, Qingqing Apple Xiang burst out laughing: "If I really want to share more, why do I need you to ask for it? Can't I transfer money to myself?"
Fiyali: "..."
"Okay, okay, no more joking."
Qing Qing Apple Xiang closed the book and put it in her bag, and glanced at Feiyali with a slightly focused look: "Tell me, why did you suddenly come to the Free City without telling the sect? Not only did you try your best to hide it from the sect's senior leaders, but after you came here, you didn't even have any contact with the local sect in order not to leave any traces. Even... ...Even those shops that have nothing to do with the church and are completely yours didn’t show your face.”
Fiyali’s eyes widened in surprise, and she whispered: “Wow, Xiangxiang! How do you know I have..."
"Come on, I'm very aware of your little thoughts."
Qingqing Apple Xiang raised her little hand and interrupted Feiyali's exclamation without hesitation: "As promised in advance, although I When I was bored, I read a lot of lists that you deliberately left in the study, and I probably grasped the power behind the scenes in your hands, but that is your business, and I will never interfere.”
Feiyali suddenly flattened her mouth with aggrieved face and muttered: "Don't say that, after all, I will definitely not let you go..."
"So why can you look so harmless? What can you say that is worse than a beast?”
Rao Shiqing, who is extremely cultivated, couldn’t help but be forced to use a curse word at this moment.
"Hey~"
After being very cute, the Saint of Wealth did not use Po Xia Donkey to change the subject when her friend had already hinted that she could not pursue it. Instead, she casually distributed a The gold coins with a faint halo were placed on the table, and he whispered: "God said, this is a business secret."
The next moment, several dazzling light strips immediately lit up around the two of them, and a moment later, Dissipate into nothingness.
“It’s obvious that you didn’t believe my excuse of coming to the Free City to do market research.”
Fiyali shrugged, while fiddling with the bright and bright diamond in front of her. A normal gold coin, while saying calmly: "But it doesn't matter, after all. I never wanted to hide it from you from the beginning, and I didn't tell you before setting off. It was just because the City of Light was full of spies from my teaching, and the City of Freedom was extremely wary of 'strangers'. So much so that I never had a suitable opportunity before today.”
Qing Qing Apple Xiang nodded slightly, without interrupting or urging her, she just looked at Feiyali quietly and waited for the next step.
"There are two main purposes for me to hide my identity and whereabouts."
Fiyali made a scissor hand gesture to her friend and said in a brisk tone: "First of all, there is Regarding our partner whose pseudonym is Link Zelda, although we have formed a strategic alliance, I think that I really don’t know much about him, so I asked someone to investigate. After looking through the information, I came to this place that is most likely his lair."
"Oh? So have you found any clues about him?"
"No, in fact, it's with me. Before the official search started, the guy from Link approached me. I’m sorry, because you weren’t suitable to stand at the front desk yet, so I didn’t call you at that time.”
"It doesn't matter, but why..."
"I don't know why. You also know very well how careful we are to hide ourselves along the way. I really didn't expect that it would be exposed so quickly."
"Well, so Link's people came to you because..."
"They want money."
"Huh?"
"That little girl who believes in the sun god said that it's better to choose the right day than to hit it. Since I'm here myself, let's settle the second phase of research and development funds first...she just took a check for three million gold coins from me."
"..."
"Fuck you?"
"...Hmm"
