Build a gaming empire from scratch

Chapter 778 Brothel 1 lacks 7, come quickly!

Lin You originally thought that after knowing the hidden attribute of [merit], the players' behavior would be more restrained.

Although it is now a closed test, all data generated during the period - including merit changes caused by behavior - will be deleted.

But he didn't tell the players this news.

Logically speaking, players should hesitate a bit, right?

It can't be all villains, can it?

The development team believes that there is no main storyline and no novice level. Players are randomly thrown on the streets of Chang'an City for no reason. The first thing should be to find a way to make money.

The players put in this time are worse than Wu Di.

At that time, Wu Di at least gave some copper coins back, but Lin You, a big guy in this group, didn't give it back.

So Wu Di needed money at that time, and so did these players.

This is no different from the modern times when a person arrives in a strange city. They always make money first and then talk about other things.

For this reason, the development team is paying close attention to the number of jobs such as coolies, grooms, and bearers without any threshold, as well as the number of apprentices in sub-professions such as blacksmiths, chefs, and tanners-sub-professions are originally designed for players to make money. channel.

But players have their own ideas.

After a large number of players entered Chang'an City, they stopped passers-by to ask about the general situation, and then went straight to the brothel street.

Places like Goulan Washe, they don't even bother to take a look at them, they go straight to the brothels with the highest grade, and even pick the ones with the best location and the most luxurious environment to enter.

But of course they couldn't get in.

Especially Tang Mingyue, whose massage oil hadn't dried completely, was stopped by the welcome boy of the brothel from a long distance away, and he was not allowed to approach the gate, saying that he would "bump the distinguished guests".

The other players were in better condition than Tang Mingyue, at least they were wearing clothes.

——But the good is limited. Yunmeng didn't adapt the ancient costumes. As a result, when the players opened the door and came in, they were all wearing their own clothes in the virtual world.

"Chang'an" is different from Metropolis and Night City. This is an ancient theme, and it is different from many rules.

The normal clothes in modern cities, in ancient times, were all exotic clothes, and even formal occasions could not be entered-brothel was a high-end place in ancient times, of course it was a formal occasion.

Tang Mingyue retreated home to change clothes, and took a shower by the way.

——He is different from other players. He is purely curious about brothels, wants to open his eyes and see the excitement, and has no special thoughts about oirans, so he is willing to follow the rules.

But not everyone obeys the rules like him, and more people still choose to break through.

Then, without any accident, he was kicked out by the thugs raised by the brothel.

Tang Mingyue changed his clothes and came back again, but he still couldn't get in - he had to pay for a ticket to enter, which is nicknamed "ordering flower tea", which in common sense means opening a booth.

The player doesn't have a big money on him now, and he can't afford the minimum consumption, so it is expected that he will be kicked out.

Up to now, these people have perfectly reproduced Wu Di's experience.

But then, things developed very differently.

Wu Di had no choice at that time, he was the only player in Chang'an City, and he couldn't shake people even if he wanted to.

But now, it's not too easy to shake people!
A Yi was standing at the gate of Donghualou, the largest brothel in Pingkangfang, and loudly recruited his teammates:
"Pingkangfang Donghua Building door breaking task 1 missing 7, if you are interested, come quickly!"

As soon as the words fell, several elder brothers who had been fighting on their own immediately came over, obviously planning to use force.

Seeing this scene, not only did Tang Mingyue not go up to him, but he quickly stepped back a few steps away.

He just wanted to open his eyes and watch the elegant singing and dancing performances, and these shows, if he was not welcomed in as a serious guest, he might not be able to see them.

——Rushing in with force, probably only see the girl who lifts up her skirt and runs away screaming.

Tang Mingyue was not interested in this.

But it seems that the good guys at the door are very interested in this...

After a while, 18 heroes gathered at the gate of Donghua Building—far more than the 8 that A Yi called.

There were only 6 thugs on the opposite side.

18 against 6, isn't this crushing?
A Yi took his good brothers up to A.

The goons drew their clubs.

The next moment, a hard, wear-resistant, high-density, dark red high-quality red sandalwood stick knocked on A Yi's forehead.

"Boom!"

The sound is very light and crisp.

Obviously, the quality of Ayi's head is also very good.

"Ah! Damn! It hurts!"

Not only Ah Yi, other players also cried out in pain:
"You fucking cheat!"

"If you want to put down your arms, let's fight fairly! Ah! Don't slap your face!"

"Ah! Your mother... ah! Drafting big... ah! Ah! It hurts! I was wrong! I'm sorry!"

……

Three minutes later, 3 players were beaten out the door with bruised noses and swollen faces.

"Hiss—" A Yi lightly touched the big blue-purple bump on his forehead, breathing in the pain.

But even in such a miserable situation, he still refused to admit defeat: "It's just relying on the weapons in hand, victory is not by force!"

The other players were crying and howling, and fell into a daze:
"it hurts!"

"What's going on, is there a bug?"

"Damn, the virtual game finally hurts?"

"What rubbish changes, I'm not shaking M, I don't need it!"

"Where is this option turned off?"

……

If they don't feel the pain, let alone the other party took out the stick, even if they took out the knife, they might not lose.

But with pain, the situation is quite different.

It is human nature to be afraid of pain. Even if the pain is not severe, it will obviously affect the combat effectiveness of ordinary people.

For the appearance of pain, Yunmeng had already prepared the groundwork.

From the absence of any negative senses in the early virtual world, to vomiting, dizziness, cold, contusions... a little bit to test the player's reaction, it is only now that I have finally come up with a sense of pain.

And the pain is still mild and quite flexible.

——Lin You's original idea was very rough, and it was to give players 10% pain across the board.

However, at the "Chang'an" development meeting later, several employees put forward different ideas, which made Lin You realize that this approach was too simple and rude.

If it was a one-size-fits-all, it would be a relatively minor scratch, such as being cut across the eyelid by an opponent's blade in battle, leaving only a slight blood line. This should be a very exciting and passionate moment that can make people's blood pump.

But it will be ignored by players because the pain is too slight, which greatly reduces the pleasure brought by "extreme dodge".

On the other hand, if someone blows out the liver, blows the ass, pierces the kidney, pokes the heart, or kicks the lower body...

Even if the damage caused by this kind of pain is reduced to 10%, it is still terrible!It may even leave a heavy psychological shadow on the player, so it must be weakened even more.

So at the end of the meeting, in order to debug the [Pain Sensation System] so that this system can increase the immersion and excitement of the battle without giving players a too bad experience, Lin You set up a six-member team to be responsible for this work.

He only set one requirement: when the player engages in sabotage or commits crimes and is hunted down, the pain will be +3%.

That's why, Ayi and his teammates, as well as players outside different brothels at the same time, or even in different mirror images, would be beaten around by red sandalwood sticks, screaming in pain.

But this only lasted for a short while.

Only those players who are really afraid of pain will choose to give up and explore in another place.

Most of the players have accepted the fact that the virtual world has a "sense of pain" with amazing adaptability, and then—

Then shake people!

"It's not a gentleman not to take revenge!" A Yi shook his head, and started shaking people again!
Tang Mingyue, who had been watching from the sidelines, left quietly.

He gave up the idea of ​​fishing in troubled waters and going in to join in the fun, but planned to make some money and go in to watch the performance in a fair manner.

Anyway, there are plenty of brothels in Chang'an City.

These "chaotic and evil" players are only making trouble around the three top brothels, Donghualou, Yugelou, and Jinchailou.

Also in Pingkang Square, the slightly inferior Baihe Tower, Jade Tower, Fengxian Tower, Cuihua Tower, Chungui, Fangyuan, Huaxiang Pavilion, etc. are still in good business.

As long as you get the money, you can go in openly.

But if you want to get money, you must first find out the situation in Chang'an City, otherwise there is no way to start.

This is also the approach taken by many "peaceful" players who abide by order and like to play games slowly.

From the moment they entered the game, they roamed the city of Chang'an at a leisurely pace. Even though they were also penniless, they didn't feel anxious at all. Instead, they looked at the bustling market crowd and naturally blended into it.

Chat with NPCs, ask what time it is, which emperor is in power, and whether any major events have happened in the city recently.

I went to the restaurant to eat the Overlord’s meal, and was left by the boss to work to pay off the debt. I successfully got a job as a waiter, or worked as an apprentice chef, and after I finished cooking once, I successfully started a side job.

There are also those who gossip about storytelling outside teahouses, perform magic tricks on the street, worship Buddha in temples, fish by the Qujiang Pond, recruit relatives and snatch hydrangea through martial arts competitions, climb high and look far...

They feel like there are so many new things to do!

But the more than 40 people gathered at the gate of Donghua Building didn't see these things at all.

A Yi stared at the 12 thugs with big arms and round waists holding red sandalwood sticks at the entrance of the brothel, gearing up.

"There's no reason to stop a distinguished guest at the door?"

"Today's guest, I'm sure!"

"You have to accept it if you don't accept it!"
