The European Emperor’s character remains standing

Chapter 106 Hidden Mode Copy

Speaking of a cat cafe, this dungeon is a puzzle-solving dungeon with a time limit and a loop.

However, they have reached this point in the clearance process and have not yet finished the game. They have found the real main content and key clues and props, which is enough to show that Lin Shilu and the others did not follow the normal route.

According to the normal pace of clearance, it will take at least two or three weeks for them to discover the real main content, and the operation level of the dungeon cat cafe will be pushed to half.

Now, the completion rate of their branch business tasks is less than half. To say half is an exaggeration. Counting the amount of tasks they have overfulfilled in the past few days, it is only about 3% now.

Lin Shilu and the others knew that the progress of this customs clearance was abnormal and that the copy would inevitably weaken the players or increase the difficulty.

But they didn't expect that it would come so suddenly, and that even players from the future camp would be affected by the extremely fast progress of players from the past camp.

Generally speaking, the difficulty of the dungeon is divided into three types: easy, medium and high difficulty. This is a word that has been deleted from the official settings and is summarized by many players. The best posts on game forums are just popular.

However, the game mechanism of "Alien" will adjust the difficulty according to the player's own strength. The difficulty is generally not fixed, and can even be said to be very flexible.

This is also to prevent players from taking advantage of the loopholes and finding a boss to lead or sneak into the boss team. In these two cases, the former will be weakened or the difficulty of the copy will be provided due to the strength of the boss players. If the latter chooses a difficulty level that is too low, the difficulty will be increased appropriately. Rookie players will not be weakened and can only adapt to the difficulty coefficient on their own. .

If a player takes advantage of a loophole in the dungeon due to various naughty operations, and the dungeon cannot weaken the player or increase the difficulty, then it will require a dedicated person, that is, a dedicated customer service agent, to deal with the situation flexibly.

This is apparently the case now.

Bai Luoqin sensed that the next changes were somewhat unknown, so she made some slight modifications according to the original plan. Therefore, she was also preparing for the second round of the dungeon to help her teammates pass the level better.

Teammates in the same camp as her were put into the side dungeon after unlocking enough character clue points.

Players from the future camp are not in the login space, they are all in the dungeon.

After Zhu Qingyou and the other four players were put into the dungeon, Su Heng, Ye Sisi, Chen Siyuan and the others hurriedly hurried after the live broadcast was closed, and finally arrived when Lin Shilu's passivity was about to affect them. The other person’s home.

Change comes from this.

Each copy of the game has a different direction, and each direction leads to a different branch. The ending of each branch is undetermined and must be solved by the players themselves.

The direction here is the dungeon setting, which is formed based on the player's actions. It is not that the player adapts to the dungeon, but that the dungeon adapts to the player.

Therefore, the ending of the copy is not fixed.

The so-called official endings are inferred by the official based on the direction of the dungeon, and the endings of some dungeons are typical or special endings played by selected players.

Assuming that there are three points in the dungeon branch, then two of them must be good endings. This is the origin of the different world being called the sweet paradise by many players.

But until the last moment, many changes and directions in the copy will be slightly different due to player choices, which is the butterfly effect.

Even if there are original endings in each branch, the endings that are played are not necessarily the ones given by the official ones. Many of them are similar to those endings, or even dungeon lines with hidden endings.

This is one of the reasons why replicas are flexible.

Many players are able to achieve unexpected endings in the dungeon, but the official endings are difficult to achieve.

When the copy is released to the player, the existing direction will be randomly selected for delivery.

Therefore, some lucky players will be put into hidden mode by the system from the beginning.

There are two types of hidden modes, one is the official setting line, and the other is the story line created by the players themselves, so there are many hidden endings in the copy.

For example, the dungeon of a cat cafe is a new dungeon officially released during the public beta. It has only been opened recently. The only way to find out the strategy is to be summarized by the players themselves.

If you want an official ending branch, you must wait until the copy is open for a certain period of time.

In this copy, there are three main directions, two time loops with different concepts and a hidden branch with an unknown ending.

First, when they come in, the system will directly deliver according to their choice, disrupting the two teams, and deliver at different time points according to the two people's choices.

Then there is the second type of Luoluo's guess, which is to achieve that at the same node but in different spaces, what both parties do and the people they affect can be perceived by players who match the same identity.

This phenomenon can only be seen by players from both camps, and other people in the dungeon will ignore it, thus achieving another so-called second-game influence cycle.

Obviously, Lin Shilu and the others' current dungeon situation is not one of the above two. Based on what was said above, their current dungeon is in a hidden storyline created by themselves.

From the beginning, Lin Shilu's passive talent was activated unconsciously.

The impact was only very slight, but the changes were huge. The dungeon they were about to enter normal mode was changed to a hidden dungeon line. It was only now that everyone discovered that her passive talent had been activated.

Therefore, what they entered was the hidden line set by the official, but with their own cool operations, they directly pushed the branches of the story into the unknown.

It originally took two or three weeks to discover the truth, but it was discovered directly in the first episode, and the key props were found.

Not long after they entered this dungeon, other players also chose this dungeon, but they followed the normal story line.

Before everyone enters the dungeon, the system will provide clues.

The usual clue is a short self-introduction.

You are a cat cafe owner.

When you wake up, you find yourself back in time. Just like you, there are four friends around you who have gone back in time.

After some exploration, you and your friends discover that a cycle occurs every week.

【Branch to one】

After the cycle occurs, you find that there are still some clues in the room that you left behind last time, but more clues return to the original point. So, you and your friends began to investigate the truth of the cycle.

[Branch direction two]

After the cycle occurs, you find that the house you live in has not only traces of your life, but also the traces of another person's life.

For example, when you are washing your face, the toothbrush cup next to you seems to have been picked up and being used.

It seems that you are not the only one in this situation. When you return to the cat cafe, you find that your teammates have also had this experience, but you don't know whether the other party is a friend or an enemy, so you can only stand still for the time being.

After some communication, you finally determined that the other person is you in the future, but it is slightly different from you now.

In this timeline, the two are in a state where they cannot see or touch each other.

After getting along for a while, you discovered that there is a time difference between you. You are not in a parallel space as you had guessed before.

You and your friends live in the past week, and you in the future live in the second week.

You have been in a cycle for a week and you want to break it but you have no clue.

At the end of the week, the cycle begins. Everyone has come to the second week where you will be in the future, and you have gone to the third week in the future.

When you come to the second week, you will find that the second week is no different from the past time, but you can still find some traces of your future life from the surroundings. Everything around you seems to have been reset, but not completely reset.

What is not reset are the clues that have been discovered.

You discovered this clue and want to work with your future self to discover clues in different timelines.

Time and space are intertwined, and the past and the future are intertwined. Where should you go?
  The above is the dungeon information prompt that players saw before entering.

Let's go back to before the accident happened. Su Heng and the other three rushed to the deer's side before it passively affected them.

They did not open the key prop album immediately because they were not sure what kind of plot would be triggered after opening the album, so they first got together to discuss the clues they had collected.

"What I said before was the information prompt that I saw before entering the dungeon, but it has obviously changed now. You can only pay a little attention to the original information prompt. What do you think?" Su Heng suggested based on his memory.

"I feel good."

An Zheer replied, and the other three nodded in agreement.

"We've finished discussing what needs to be discussed, so let's open this key prop together and see what's written on it."

Lin Shilu was sure that they had nothing to add, so he took a drink of water and continued.

"I just want to know. There are several cats of different breeds in An An and I's mobile phones, but according to the clues, we can see that they are related to Ye Ye, which is really confusing. Also, I was really curious after seeing the picture. What exactly does the phrase 'leaves are unique' mean?"

Ye Sisi: "I agree, let's see what secrets are hidden in the key props."

Su Heng: "Plus one."

Chen Siyuan: "Well, that's right."

Several other people were careful and did not say use, but used other words to express it, because they were afraid that before they saw the key props, the system would default to using the props, activating the time method, and performing a time jump.

At that point, the gains will really outweigh the losses.

Then, it's like what was said before.

The accident just happened.

Suddenly, before Lin Shilu and the others had time to prepare, they received a prompt from the system.

[Players in the past camp have triggered special clue props and have collected enough clues. The system will perform time magic for past players to accelerate the plot. 】

[Special factors were detected, and the week ended early. 】

Before the transmission started, Lin Shilu and the others were puzzled: "Why, I just turned the damn page, why did I trigger the key item?"

The last thing that caught my eye was a sentence in the photo album.

"Yi Zi is an extremely special cat, not only because he has been with me since I was born, but also because..."

The words behind it can't be read clearly because the transmission has been turned on.

An Zhe'er also saw this sentence at the end. What she was thinking was: "The life span of a normal cat is no more than 20 years. From the information collected before, the owner of a cat cafe is almost 26 years old. Normal It is unlikely that a cat will live for twenty-six years, unless it is a cat demon or the cat has become spiritually enlightened..."

As the teleportation started, she had an idea, but it all had to be based on the guess being true.

"Unlikely?"

[Three players, Gouchen, Yesisi, and Soda, have unlocked side missions, and the system will put the three players into the side quest. If the players Fold-eared Cat and Colored Deer do not collect enough clues to unlock side missions, the system will directly send them to the final destination of the time jump. 】

The other three were affected by the balancing mechanism and only found clues related to the character's background, which were not useful, but they unlocked side tasks.

Therefore, there is this system prompt.

Players from the future camp and the past camp who had unlocked side missions entered the side dungeon one after another.

In the past, An Zheer failed to collect enough clues and was unable to unlock the side mission, but Bai Luoqin unlocked the side mission.

Therefore, Bai Luoqin and An Zheer were the only two people who were matched with the same identity, but only one of them triggered the side mission.

At first glance, the thing happened very suddenly, as if the deer cub's passive talent was turned on again.

The timeline spans a very large area. The five people in the teleportation can only feel that they are in a special space. They cannot communicate with each other. The previous copy scenes seem to still remain in front of them. They can only think about the final scene during the teleportation period. What does the picture you see mean?

The system prompts are still heard in my ears.

[During the acceleration period, the time of players in the future camp will not change, and players in the past camp will arrive at the four-week node. 】

[At this point in time, the flow of time is inconsistent, and players from the future camp cannot contact those from the past camp. 】

[After the time adjustment of both parties is completed, the clues will be refreshed. Note: players in the past camp will be at the four-week point, and players in the future will be at the five-week point.

Before the release starts, players who triggered the side task will be dropped into the side copy, and other players will enter the login space. Please be patient and wait for the player who triggered the side task to clear the level.

Note that players cannot communicate in the login space. This restriction is a weakening of players from past camps. Please abide by the system rules. 】

[After the key clues have been collected, the system will advance reasonably according to the player's personality, and the plot is advancing. 】

Before being transported out of the copy, his consciousness only sank for a moment, that is, he was in a coma.

After waking up and listening to the system's beep, Lin Shilu made a bold guess based on the text he saw before writing the copy, but it was impossible no matter how hard he thought about it.

Helpless, she could only turn her attention to the new prompts given by the system.

According to the system prompts, during their delivery.

Players in the future camp walked according to the normal timeline without any acceleration or push.

From this point of view, since the system will inevitably adjust the time and location when it is released, players from the two camps cannot communicate.

Players like this in the future can only save the clues they have collected, and then wait until players from the past camp arrive at the right time to communicate.

……

　Regarding the lifespan of cats, I found on the Internet that it is 15 to 17 years, and it has been expanded a bit here.
