Rebirth of the big era of online games

Chapter 366
(This chapter is sent out, this novel is exactly 100 million words, I feel like I wrote a million words casually...)
Chapter 331 3.6.2
In fact, as long as experienced players know, on the way to the Emei Sect, every scenic spot is guarded by a famous NPC disciple of the Emei Sect, and these NPCs of the sect have the "hearsay" skill.

In other words, any evil players who pass in front of them will be recognized immediately, and if their martial arts are too rubbish, they will end up being killed.

This setting is mainly to increase the difficulty of the game. It does not mean that any map can be checked in at will. Only when the strength reaches a certain level can it be possible to light up certain illustrations.

Therefore, it is completely untenable to go to Mount Emei to sign in and check in. It is okay to fool newbies, but fooling old players will definitely be seen through.

But isn't the game only open for an hour now, and the players at the foot of the mountain are relatively novice, and they were fooled by Fang Jie with a few words, and then became his ghosts under the knife.

The reason for killing people and stealing goods outside the city is mainly determined by the game settings.

The so-called chivalry is prohibited by martial arts, the city is still safe, and there are NPC officers and soldiers to maintain order, but anyone who dares to kill people in the street in the city will be surrounded and killed by patrolling officers and soldiers throughout the city. , so it is a relatively safe zone for players.

If the player runs away, he will be wanted by the government of the whole server. Other players can also reveal the list to receive the wanted task, and then get the coordinates of the player in real time. After killing him, he can get a large amount of game currency rewards.

So under normal circumstances, even if they are disciples of the evil sect, even if they become masters, as long as they are not the best masters in the world, they will not randomly PK in the city.

Well, even the best players in the world are afraid of siege, so if you can not PK in the city, don't PK in the city. This is also to provide a relatively safe PVE environment for decent players.

But out of town...

Then you have to be careful, especially in the wilderness of remote areas, the players you encounter are most likely to be evil players.

The distribution of sects in the game, the evil faction is basically in the southeast, northwest and even the corners of the island, the control of the city is very small, and the Central Plains area is all the scope of the decent faction, this is also to give the evil faction players Increasing the difficulty, its task environment and living environment are far lower than those of decent players.

For example, an evil player like Fang Jie who blatantly appears in the city, if it is in the middle of the game, it is estimated that he will be targeted by decent players as soon as he enters the city, unless he directly teleports away in a carriage and wants to go out of the city to do tasks or check in on the map. It is definitely dangerous, and it must be the result of being beaten by gangs.

But now is the novice period, before everyone fully understands the game, there are still loopholes to exploit.

Using the same routine, Fang Jie killed more than a dozen foolish Emei disciples at the foot of Mount Emei in a row, and only then did the players of the Emei Sect wake up.

It's not that the player who was killed didn't call out to remind everyone in the sect channel.

Several MM players cried in the sect channel immediately, saying that an unreasonable demon came down the mountain, and some spoke to remind the sisters down the mountain to be careful, especially when encountering a blood knife player wearing a red hat. He went out of town together.

But the tricky thing is that there are restrictions on speaking in the channel.

Every time you shout, you need to consume 100% of the lower limit of internal energy, and then you have to meditate again to accumulate internal energy.

At present, when a player's internal strength is very rubbish, it takes at least 3 minutes of meditation time to recover his internal strength once he yells in the public channel. It is difficult for ordinary people to notice such a low frequency of yelling.

This setting is not only to prevent the game from swiping the screen, especially to prevent those game studios from calling the screen from swiping and affecting the order in the chat channel. Fang Jie doesn't want to see his game's chat channel full of advertisements swiping the screen .

It is mainly a way of playing. Every time you shout out your internal strength and mental skills, your proficiency will increase to a certain extent. When you meditate to restore your internal strength, your proficiency will continue to increase by a small amount. That is to say, this game uses the routine of the 51wan chat room. Let chat can also practice leveling.

But this also caused some unlucky Emei sect disciples to be tricked. When the Emei sect became alert and a large group of female players rushed down the mountain to look for the murderer, Fang Jie had already brought the more than 100 taels of silver obtained by killing and robbing, and spent it. Among them, 30 taels of silver were sent away from Chengdu.

Destination: Yangzhou City.

Yangzhou City is more dangerous.

There is the main rudder of the beggar gang, and the entrance and exit of its school is a tree hole of a big tree, and this big tree is in the central square of Yangzhou City, and the post station is in a corner of the central square.

The beggar gang players must be almost all male players, and they are definitely not as easy to fool as the female players of the Emei sect, and their basic skill of the sect is "hearsay".

So before leaving, he took a lot of effort to kill an ordinary NPC beggar passer-by on the official road at the gate of the city, picked up the other party's beggar clothes, and changed into a beggar gang disciple.

The beggar suit is also a prop in the illustrated book system. After wearing it, the corresponding illustrated book will be activated. In short, everything in the game is an illustrated book, with extremely rich content, and any game activities will not be useless.

But this is not the point.

If you are an experienced player, you can see that there are no pocket patches of any color on the shoulders of this beggar's uniform. In other words, this is just an ordinary beggar's uniform, not a martial uniform for the disciples of the beggar gang.

This kind of detail, let alone the novice stage, even in the middle stage of the game, if you don't look carefully, you may not be able to see it.

So when Fang Jie teleported to the central square of Yangzhou City wearing a beggar's costume, no one could see his identity even though there were endless beggar gang disciples and players in the square, even though his clothes were slightly different.

After all, there are so many fellow sects clustered together, and Fang Jie is not conspicuous among them. Beggar gang players are not interested in performing "hearsay" on countless fellow sect players one by one at the helm of their sect. significance.

Without any danger, he controlled his character and ran to a magnificent building on Chengnan Street in Yangzhou. He saw a two-foot-high flagpole on the stone altar on the left and right, and the pennant was flying on the pole. On the flag on the left, there are four black characters "Yangzhou Salt Bureau" written on it, with silver hooks and iron scratches, which are extraordinary in strength.

Here I have to give a thumbs up to the art department of Boiling Game. The architectural scenes in the game are very meticulously made. Many scenes are almost completely made according to the descriptions in the text MUD. Fang Jie only saw text descriptions before, but now he sees When I saw the real game, I was very pleased.

Finally, he transferred the text MUD into a graphic online game. This was unprecedented in the history of his previous life, which is enough to make him feel proud. This is also the reason why he wanted to experience this game in person. It is not only a feeling, but also one of his dreams!

According to the historical background of Jin Yong’s novels, the Yangzhou area is the place where Huai salt in the north of the Yangtze River is collected and distributed. In order to facilitate management and collect salt tax, the government set up a special Yangzhou Salt Bureau, which is directly under the imperial court’s orders. Therefore, it is not against peace to have a salt bureau in the city.

But this kind of non-violation is very inconsistent in the game.

It doesn't seem to make much sense to place a building with such a large area, such a grand scale, and such a fine design in the city. If you set up a restaurant, blacksmith shop or something, at least players will often patronize it. A salt bureau, why use it? ?
People have motivations for everything they do, and so do game companies.

So this is actually a kind of puzzle-solving hint, it depends on whether the players want it or not.

Fang Jie tried his best to teleport from the Western Regions of the game map to the Central Plains this time, naturally to solve the puzzle.

But he is not called puzzle solving, but cheating, he is the mastermind of the game, understand?
This is also the most distressing part for him at the moment. He can do cheats but doesn't need cheats. He has money but doesn't spend money. Could it be that he knows the task of solving puzzles but doesn't do it?

Just playing a game, not so masochistic, right?

This time, it’s a game test, and try not to disrupt the balance of the game. Anyway, he will never participate in the planning of "The Legend of Jin Yong II" in detail. The details will be left to the people below, otherwise the game will be difficult. I really don't have much sense of accomplishment, and I can't reflect my game skills.

Just when Fang Jie was about to start solving the puzzle, Li Qing who was on the side came over, blinking her eyes, and said in a playful tone: "What are you doing? Solving the puzzle? Well, you don't teach me, you cheat there by yourself what!"

Before Fang Jie could respond, he immediately smiled and said, "I don't care, teach me, and I want to learn too!"

This……

Well, we can't just allow officers and soldiers to set fires, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps, right?
Anyway, one more cheating Li Qing would not cause much damage to the game.

However, Fang Jie did not explain, but directly demonstrated it face-to-face. As for whether Li Qing could remember the details of the process, it was up to her own luck. If she wanted to cheat, she had to do nothing at all.

Entering the Yangzhou Salt Bureau, there are seven or eight NPC salt merchants walking around randomly, chatting and laughing naturally to themselves, and there is also an NPC with a name and surname named "Black Dragon Whip" Shi Song. All have an exclamation mark task icon on top.

Many players may have been dumbfounded when they saw the side quests all over the place. To solve the puzzle, it really depends on luck and patience.

Fang Jie controlled the characters to find the steward of the salt merchant in a big red coat and accepted the task.

Through the task dialog box, I learned that this branch task is very simple. It is to put a pile of lime powder in the corner of the wall and put it in the cloth bag next to it. After completing it 10 times, you can get a certain amount of game currency rewards.

The key point of this step is to find the steward in red to take over the task. Although finding other stewards is the same task, there are still some differences. It may not be possible to start the puzzle-solving plot task.

The task process of loading lime powder is to read the task progress bar symbolically, each time for 30 seconds, that is, the task will be automatically completed after 300 seconds.

This is a very boring and long task process, the average player may dismiss it, it is too boring to spend such a long time sitting there waiting.

However, this is actually a hint of puzzle-solving tasks. Most of the task bars in the game progress for 10 seconds each time, but here it is as long as 30 seconds, and you have to do it ten times, which is obviously abnormal!
In short, such puzzle-solving tasks actually have a lot of hints in the open and in the dark. While creating a certain degree of difficulty in solving puzzles, they will not be completely illogical. Careful players will often find some clues to complete these puzzle-solving tasks. Try it a few times.

Five minutes later, the 5 lime powder tasks were completed, and the exclamation mark above the head of the salt merchant in red turned into a question mark, indicating that the task could be returned.

And when Fang Jie talked to the other party again, the NPC's reply was like this: "Oh, I forgot to bring money with me today, why don't you take a bag of lime powder back, little brother, and take it as wages."

At this time, a "yes/no" option appears in the game character dialog box, allowing players to choose how to respond.

This is actually transferring the stand-alone puzzle-solving gameplay to online games, and different choices will produce different plot results.

If you choose "No", the rogue NPC will say: "Hey! I don't want money, but I have one! Brothers, copy the guys!"

Then, the screen will jump to the copy of the same scene, and a fight will begin with 7 or 8 NPCs who are not weak. The entrance of the Salt Bureau, and in reality, it is impossible to enter the Salt Bureau to accept the task again within a day.

This is very cheating, the players have been busy for a long time, and they ended up like this.

What's even more deceitful is that if the player chooses "Yes", it is really just rewarding a bag of useless lime powder, and there is no other reward, and it is also a waste of work.

However, Fang Jie chose "Yes" and received a bag of lime powder as a reward.

Players who are familiar with Jin Yong's novels will guess that lime powder is one of Wei Xiaobao's "magic weapons", and he has used it many times to save himself from danger.

Currently there is a "Black Dragon Whip" Shi Song NPC standing in the game scene, this is the biggest hint!

In the novel, Wei Xiaobao used lime powder to help Mao Shiba kill the "Black Dragon Whip" Shi Song who came to arrest him!
And Mao Shiba's unique skill is "Five Tigers Severing Door Knife"!
It can be inferred that this puzzle-solving task is actually related to the public cheat book "Five Tigers Broken Door Knife", and all the details and hints point to this puzzle-solving plot.

But still the same sentence, it depends on whether the players are careful and understand Jin Yong's novels.

Anyway, Li Qing on the side looked confused, she couldn't see what kind of medicine Fang Jie was selling in the gourd, and she didn't know what he wanted to do next.

Of course the next step is to find Mao Shiba.

There are so many NPCs in the game, finding an NPC in the game can be described as finding a needle in a haystack.

But it doesn't matter, the way to find people in the game is very simple. Go to the Yangzhou restaurant "Bai Xiaosheng" and talk to him, enter the keyword "Mao Shiba" in the dialogue search box, and the other party will provide the map and coordinates where he is located, and inquire about the player The direction is also available, but every time you inquire, you need to pay a consultation fee of 1 tael of gold.

This is also a way of system recycling.

There is also a way that does not cost money, as long as you know enough about the plot of the novel.

Or, he is a game planner.

Fang Jie went straight to the Lichun Courtyard in Yangzhou City, the brothel run by Wei Xiaobao's mother, and the place where Mao Shiba played.

As soon as you enter the brothel, you will trigger a copy of the puzzle-solving plot.

Because he is carrying a bag of lime powder, which is a necessary prop to trigger the puzzle-solving plot.

The scene in the story dungeon is the same, but there are only the player himself and the NPC, no other players, and it is a storyline, the player cannot control the actions of the characters.

The whole plot is the plot in the novel, described in the form of text narration:
All of a sudden, five or six people from the south and the north of the square yelled in unison: "Business friends in each yard, girls, friends who come to Huayin to play, listen up: let's find someone to talk to Others are irrelevant, and no one is allowed to bark or move around. Don’t blame us for being rude if you don’t obey orders!”

After a while of yelling, Mingyufang immediately fell silent for a moment, followed by noises from various courtyards, women's exclamations, men's groans, and it became a mess.

With a bang, the door slammed open, and seventeen or eight men in short attire, white cloth covering their heads, and blue belts around their waists poured in.

Among the salt owls was an old man in his fifties who cupped his fists from left to right, and then from right to left, and said in a loud voice: "A friend of the Tiandihui surnamed Jia. Jia Lao Liu, Brother Jia, are you here?"

Suddenly, a rough voice from the east wing said: "Who is here yelling and disturbing me to have fun?"

The old man walked up a few steps, looked inward, and dimly saw a big bearded man sitting on the bed, his head was wrapped in a white cloth, and there was no scar on his face, he really wasn't Jia Laoliu.

The old man asked loudly: "Your Excellency is very skilled, may I ask your name?"

The person in the room scolded: "What is your father's surname, what is my surname naturally. Good boy, I even forgot your grandfather's name."

Before the words were finished, the two fought together, and saw that the bearded man dealt with the salt owl in the room with three strikes.

All the salt lords shouted, lifted the wounded underground, and ran away from the door one after another.

The bearded man gasped for breath, stretched out his arms to support himself after a while, seemed to have hit a sore spot again, and let out a loud snort.

"Yun Tianming" went to help him up, that human said: "Pick up the knife and hand it to me!"

"Yun Tianming" picked up the ground sword and handed it to his right hand.

The bearded man said: "I can't see that you are full of loyalty. Well, now I'm going to the Desheng Mountain in the west of the city to compete with others. If you want to go, you can come with me."

The plot advances here, and there is another option "yes/no".

This plot is actually in the form of a text MUD. If players don’t want to read it, they can just click to skip it, and then the last dialogue and options will appear directly.

If the player chooses No, Mao Shiba will say: "Your grandfather, I didn't expect you to be a coward, that's all, I will give you this Wuhu Door Severing Knife as a reward, and we will have nothing to do in the future, so let's just say goodbye!"

Well, reward a Five Tigers Broken Door Knife, this public puzzle-solving weapon is worth a little money at the beginning of the game, but it is far from the cheat book.

So Fang Jie chose "Yes".

Then the plot moves on.

"Yun Tianming" immediately said: "Why don't you go? Good friends share the blessings and share the difficulties."

The man laughed loudly and said: "These two sentences are very good. I have heard people say it thousands of times in Jianghu. I have seen many people who share blessings, but rarely meet people who share difficulties. Let's go!"

Then the screen jumps and directly enters the scene of Desheng Mountain.

At this moment, Mao Shiba took out an ingot of twelve taels of gold from his pocket, and said, "Little friend, this ingot is for you."

"Yun Tianming" couldn't help swallowing when he saw this ingot of gold, hesitating in his heart whether to accept it or not "Yes/No".

This is the player's choice. If you choose "Yes", you will take away 100 taels of gold, the task is over, and the player returns to Lichun Courtyard.

Of course Fang Jie chose "No", so the plot continued to advance.

Next, Mao Shiba was about to compete with Wu Dapeng, the "Skyman" and Wang Tan, the "Steel Pen", but Shi Song, "Black Dragon Whip", entered randomly and said that he wanted to capture Mao Shiba, so the two NPCs fought.

At the critical moment, "Yun Tianming" took advantage of Shi Song's unpreparedness, took out lime powder from the bag, threw it into Shi Song's eyes, and helped Mao Shiba kill Shi Song.

This is the end of the puzzle-solving plot.

And the task reward is a copy of "Five Tigers Broken Door Knife" given by Mao Shiba!
This puzzle-solving task seems simple, but that's because the person who solves the puzzle is Fang Jie, the game planner.

Even though he is not a game planner, he is an old MUD player, and even a god in MUD, so this puzzle-solving task seems to be easy.

In the whole puzzle-solving process, there are actually several big pitfalls with good options. If you choose the wrong one, you will lead to a different plot, and the rewards won will not be public martial arts cheats. These can only be explored by the players themselves.

This is also the uniqueness of this game. The plot of the stand-alone game is also introduced. In addition to this puzzle-solving task, there are countless puzzle-solving tasks in the game. Some game plot parties are blessed, just waiting for them to explore slowly .

All puzzle-solving tasks will be reset every day, so each player has a chance to try once a day, but as the game continues to be explored by players, these public puzzle-solving tasks will gradually be organized by players into game guides for other players Brainless finish.

Fang Jie planned to announce the puzzle-solving task of the Five Tigers Breaking Door Knife.

But before that, wait for a few days and sell the cheats!
Of course it is selling RMB.

The game currency in the game is very valuable now, and there is even a price but no market. For the time being, it can only be sold in RMB.

Although the five tigers breaking the door knife technique is not a very powerful martial art in a vertical comparison, it is still an upper-middle martial art skill in the knife technique, and the martial arts bonus coefficient is relatively high, especially in the early stage of the game. Players will have a greater advantage in fighting, so I believe there must be local tyrants willing to pay for it.

No matter how bad it is, it can also light up a martial arts illustration book in the intermediate area, and the attribute of acquired arm strength will be increased by 30 points.

Fang Jie's heart is very dark, and he put this cheat book in the in-game point card transaction, and listed a sky-high price of 500 recharge points!
Recharge points can be used to buy any game props in the game. 500 recharge points are 500 yuan. This mechanism is the most profitable method in "The Legend of Jin Yong". , The place where RMB players really spend money is here, not the monthly card.

30 recharge points can be converted into a one-month member through the game membership, and the annual discount is 1 points. This is also an opportunity for the prostitute party to become a VIP member without spending money. This is called RMB players raising non-RMB players, and then Everyone is a VIP member, and the gap is even smaller.

Fang Jie is like this, as long as this cheat book is sold, he can use the money to recharge VIP membership, get an annual membership card and so on.

He is indeed not short of such a little money, but his first purpose of the game is to play the game without spending money, so there is nothing wrong with using the money earned from game props to charge members.

Not to mention, there is really a local tyrant who spent 500 oceans to hang him out of the cheats in seconds.

After watching Fang Jie's show, Li Qing was dumbfounded. Her boyfriend only played the game for less than two hours, and this earned the VIP membership fee for the game for the past two years?

What made her even more dumbfounded was that after the cheat book was sold, she chatted privately with Fang Jie in the game with her thirteenth younger sister, who worshiped under the Blood Knife Sect, and said, "Boss God, I bought you a Five Tiger Broken Door Knife cheat book for your birthday." Gift! Hahaha, I have already mailed it to you, pay attention to check it!"

It turns out that the local tyrant is the thirteenth sister!
Even Fang Jie was confused now.

Paralyzed, this cheat book went around, and within a few seconds it was back in my hands, and I earned an extra 500 recharge points. Could it be that I was possessed by the God of Wealth?
This kind of local tyrant does not fight for nothing. Do you want to sell it again?
