Today, Halliday's easter egg cracking racing game started again and again...
During the preparation time before the start of the competition, players can see that in the middle and front of the vehicles participating in the competition are exactly the same, standardized IOI online creative company's "Sixth Man" Those standard racing cars with no personality!
They had already been in place and neatly occupied the most advantageous positions at the front and middle of the road, while other players who arrived here in advance had to occupy some of the more dangerous and disadvantaged positions slightly in front and on both sides. of nooks and crannies.
That's right, in the game 'Oasis', the players from IOI Company, who are like an army, are so domineering that other players dare not speak to them even if they have reasons!
But, players are already used to this.
Even if we don't see all the standard racing teams from IOI, the world's second largest company, in any game, then the game will definitely be a lot less fun, right?
As time goes by, there are more and more racing cars on the track. In addition to the IOI racing team, there are also more and more players and vehicles appearing here, such as the Plymouth Fury and the Dragon Commando. MPV, the Mach 5 from "Speed Racer", a certain Batman player's 1966 Batmobile, the Interceptor in "Mad Max", the fastest in "Speed Racer" - McLaren F1, that A sports car that is said to be the most powerful on land, etc...
Because the advantageous lane in front was occupied, some players who came later had to take up positions slightly behind and release their favorite cars, and began to wait patiently for the game to start.
However, I don’t know why. Although those players who came later did not get a good position, they didn’t seem to care too much?
In fact, it is very simple. For those Easter egg hunters or professional racers who have participated in racing competitions more than once, they know very clearly that Halliday’s Easter egg game, which has been started for nearly five years, is actually not only It's just as simple as racing. Those who get a good position, stay in front and run the fastest may not necessarily reach the finish line, but may die the fastest!
Of course, the last one can’t either, that’s about it anyway!
For most of them, participating in today's game is just a routine challenge game. After all, no matter how fun the game is, it will become boring if you play too much. Therefore, they deliberately participated in the game to give It's also a good idea to have some fun or add some trouble to your boring life, isn't it?
Therefore, now in this racing competition preparation area, except for those players from the IOI Sixth Man Company who have not changed in the past five years, they still run in in a formation in a serious manner, and then use almost the same movements to run to their cars. Next to them, they shouted loud slogans according to their respective numbers and got into the car to stand by. In addition to looking extremely excited and high-spirited, others gathered in twos and threes, chatting and wrangling. , strike up a conversation, seem to not take this tense competition seriously at all?
And so does a certain Scapular Warrior Edge!
At this time, Edge was at the very back of the racing team, leaning boredly next to his 'Bigfoot Pickup' that he had modified and had a certain ability to attack and destroy obstacles, waiting for him. The arrival of those friends.
'...'
'What time has it been? They won't stop coming, right? '
'well……'
'If I had known, I would have... hmm? ! '
'! ! '
'Great, Parsifal, and Artemis, you are finally here. I thought you wouldn't come to participate in this game today! '
'oh! '
'Wait a minute, another old friend of mine is here too. Take a look, who is she? ! '
At this time, Edge, who was bored to death, suddenly became energetic. He first greeted his old friend Parsifal who had just ran out of the portal, and the new Artemis whom he had just met. After saying hello, he enthusiastically followed the two of them and walked out of the portal. At this time, he was looking around like a curious baby. It was obviously the first time for him to come here to participate in this competition and he greeted the little girl.
"Hi~!"
"Great Annie, I thought you wouldn't come to this game today. If you come a little later, you might not be able to get in!"
Edge smiled somewhat flatteringly, and stepped forward to pat the other person's little head affectionately. Unfortunately, a certain little girl was not interested in his friendly behavior, and simply ducked down and dexterously Hide away.
"Hello! Big Edge~!"
(*??︶??*). .:*??
"You guy!"
"You call me little brother when you need me to do something, and you call me big guy when you don't need me... As expected, you have never been a lovable little girl!!"
Edge couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard the other person's name for him, and then he laughed and teased the other person.
"ah!!"
"That's right! Little guy, come here, I'll introduce you to two friends today!"
"Come! Artemis, Parsifal, let me introduce to you. This is my old friend and regular customer, Anne Hastur, the most powerful arcane mage in the entire oasis known as the 'Daughter of Darkness'! "
"Annie, these two are my friends, the Easter egg hunter Parsifal and the 'Sixth Man' killer Artemis!"
After seeing that all the friends he was waiting for had arrived, Edge quickly led little Annie to introduce them to the other two.
"Hello!!"
"Anne Hastur, it's nice to meet you. I know you are a scary little guy with a bounty of nearly 100 million..."
“I have always admired you so much!!”
Artemis was slightly surprised when she heard Edge's introduction, and then hurried forward. After seeing the other person's appearance, she hurried up and shook hands with a little girl who was looking at her curiously. . Actually, even she didn't expect that the humble and ferocious-looking shoulder blade warrior Edge would even know such a big shot?
To be honest, although she is known as the "Sixth Person Killer" and she specifically tries to fight against IOI Company in the game and earns the hatred of IOI Company, she is still far behind compared to the little girl in front of her!
Because, the little girl in front of me is not only hated by the IOI company, but also by a considerable number of large and medium-sized game guilds and countless individual players! Otherwise, the other party's bounty would not have gradually accumulated to the top of the list, reaching that number that is enough to make everyone excited and crazy.
"How about you too, the bad sister with red hair..."
Blinking her eyes, looking at the other party's explosive red hair and strange face with scales, Anne hesitated for a moment, and finally shook hands with this young lady who knew from the looks of it that she was not a good girl.
"Well……"
"The appearance of the game character is not important, you don't have to worry about this...wait a minute, from the way you look, you haven't changed your appearance at all, right?"
Artemis didn't mind her appearance or the other person's teasing. However, she looked at the other person's appearance and saw that he looked like someone on the bounty list. He looked like a living person standing there. She couldn't help but asked in surprise when she looked like a vivid little girl with blond hair and blue eyes.
Because, it is said that except for the two years when the game first started, there were still people who liked to directly scan their appearance and play the game. Today, there are very, very few people like the little girl in front of me, who directly scan their own appearance without making any changes. Use a player who looks like he just scans his own face without making any adjustments.
"??"
(??????.??????)????????
"Yes! People think this is good, why should we change it?"
(*^▽^*)
"you……"
"Ah! No, it's nothing..."
After a brief exchange of words, Artemis hesitated and suddenly stopped talking.
Could it be that she was required to tell the other person that if she didn’t change her appearance, she would be easily resented by others, or find out and take revenge? Especially if they offend people everywhere or offend large companies and guilds like IOI, then they should be more cautious?
She even had some vague doubts. The player in front of her, this little girl, this Anne Hastur not only did not change her appearance, she did not even change her name. She just used her own name. It must be like that. Bar?
However, they have just met through Edge, and there are some things that are not suitable to be talked about too much now. If the relationship is good in the future, she can slowly explore and ask questions, and suggest the other party to correct things... But, that will be done later. What should be done is definitely not now.
"Hello!"
"I'm also very happy to meet you, the famous Master Anne Hastur. To be honest, I admire you too. You know, you have offended so many people and done so many bad things, and yet you still... It’s really an amazing thing to be able to live well until now without being beaten to death!”
Seeing Artemis being immediately attracted to him, with a look of admiration on his face, Parsifal, the veteran player behind him, suddenly felt a little bit offended, and couldn't help but step forward and use some weird words. With a strong tone, he smiled and joked and stretched out his hand.
"..."
(°ー°〃)
"Hmph! You're the one who did the bad thing!!"
|??????▽????) Cut~!
Anne didn't like this white-haired guy who said bad things about her when they first met, so she ignored the other person's outstretched hand and turned to the side.
"you……"
Parsifal retracted his hand and opened his mouth. Seeing how rude the other party was, Parsifal could only look at his old friend Edge beside him with a look of help.
"OK OK!"
"Everyone! The portal has been closed. The race will start in about five minutes. Hurry, release your cars!"
Edge now has no time to worry about why Parsifal was provoked by Little Annie and made hostile by her, because the game is about to start soon. Now that they are all here, they should hurry up and prepare. Work hard to finish today's game, even if you can't win, try your best to save your life. Don't risk your own life here, right?
Anyway, now that his net worth is getting higher and higher, his life is getting better and better, and his game gold coins are getting more and more, Edge will definitely not be happy to be cleared here, even if he has taken relevant precautions and will have a large number of gold coins. The same goes for keeping valuables in his own studio.
"certainly!"
"Look? I'm ready!"
Artemis didn't care about the little girl's attitude towards Parsifal. She directly operated her player interface, and then quickly threw out a cool power motorcycle like the one Kaneda drove in "Akira". After putting on her helmet, she rode up directly and gave a thumbs up to the three people beside her, indicating that she was ready.
Last time, she was at Gorilla King Kong and had to stop before the end, so this time, she was ready to try again to see if there was any hope of going further?
No matter what, she has to get the key and crack Halliday's Easter egg!
Because after so many years of battle of wits and courage with IOI, she has almost understood that if she wants to deal with IOI, the second largest company in the world, she will definitely not be able to rely on her own strength. She must grow stronger. Own! Now, the best way is to pass Halliday's test and get the three keys, then get the easter egg and inherit Halliday's equity in the 'Oasis' game company?
Only then, after she becomes the major shareholder of the world's largest and most influential 'Oasis' and controls the game, will she have the ability and qualifications to challenge IOI and have the possibility of completely defeating and sanctioning the other party. !
"..."
"snort!!"
Since a certain hateful little girl ignored him, Parsifal didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, so he threw out his 'DeLorean DMC-12' from the time machine, and then opened the seagull wings. He opened the car door, and after taking one last glance at a little girl, he got in.
No matter what, he, Parsifal, will definitely win this game!
When the time comes, he is looking forward to seeing what the expression on some annoying little girl's face will be when she sees that she has won and received Halliday's key. Of course, maybe what he is looking forward to more is that Artemis might turn into someone who admires or admires him, a change that makes him excited just thinking about it?
As for that annoying little girl, that daughter of darkness that everyone shouted to beat, let alone win the race, I'm afraid she couldn't even get a decent racing car, right?
"Hey! Annie!"
"What are you still waiting for? Take out your precious car quickly. There is no time. The game is about to start!"
Seeing that a certain little girl was still looking left and right, and constantly looking at Artemis's power motorcycle, Edge quickly urged her.
Because, in his opinion, the racing artifact 'Fenrir' that he found after asking many questions for the little guy is a rare and excellent product. He can't wait to see his companions and the people around him. The envious and jealous looks of the players.
"ah?"
!(;??o??)o
"Is the game going to start now?!"
=???????(??????*)
Anne originally wanted to wander around or go to the front to take a look and become familiar with the cross-sea tracks that were appearing under the transformation of the game system, but now, since Edge started to urge her, she had to quickly open her player interface and threw out his motorcycle.
"!!"
"This is……"
Seeing the ferocious and motorcycle-style gold and black motorcycle released by the little girl, it looked stable, majestic and slightly arrogant, and had an extremely sci-fi and super stylish heavy motorcycle. Artemis on the side couldn't bear it. He couldn't help but exclaimed.
Because, compared with the opponent's heavy motorcycle, her power motorcycle from "Akira" seems a little bit petty? Anyway, no matter in terms of appearance, popularity or performance, her power motorcycle may not be able to match it.
Therefore, for her who originally loved motorcycles, when she looked at the opponent's mount, she couldn't help but have little stars twinkling in her eyes... And if the current situation didn't allow it, she would have wanted to run over and beg the other person to drive for her. Give it a try in two laps!
"this!"
"Is this the 'Fenrir Wolf'? It seems that the rumor is true. The NPC Claude in the Final Fantasy 7 copy was killed first, and it has not been refreshed yet. It is said that even the limited edition Finrir You were blown away, that thing turned out to be true, and it was a good thing done by you?!"
Parsifal was greatly surprised, because compared to the opponent's unique, highly collectible and practical 'Fenrir', his limited edition 'DeLorean DMC-12 'Is it true that there are some things that can't be put on the stage?
It is said that the opponent's top speed can reach a terrifying 600 kilometers per hour?
At such a speed, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was 'flying too low', right? And what about his 'DeLorean DMC-12'? Without shaking or losing control, it is estimated that the speed of two to three hundred per hour is almost as high as the sky.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Parsifal soon became less envious.
Because, he knew, no matter how good the opponent's motorcycle was, they would not be able to win this 'alternative' racing game developed by Halliday himself! And he also saw that many people around him were casting unkind glances at a little blond girl who climbed onto the motorcycle... Obviously, those people might be jealous or because they recognized the little girl. Whoever the girl belongs to has some kind of plan, so they will definitely do something that will be known to everyone.
"People do good things and bad things, but they haven't done anything!!"
s (????ˇ??ˇ????)ゞ
After getting on her 'little motorcycle', she adjusted the distance of the handle somewhat unsuitably so that she could control it calmly. Then she turned around and made a big show of some annoying guy, and then Only then did he put on his motorcycle helmet bitterly, not intending to explain more to the other party.
"I can testify to this."
"Because I personally bought Annie's motorcycle from another player for 100,000 gold coins. She really didn't do anything. Claude's first kill was really not her fault!"
Edge opened the door of his Bigfoot pickup truck and climbed in while turning back to explain to Parsifal.
After all, he made a huge fortune from this business, at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Therefore, compared to his old friends, he is definitely more willing to protect a small fortune than an old friend. player's.
"Ten, one hundred thousand?!"
"You are really rich...but you have to be careful. You are still a little too flamboyant. People around you will definitely make things difficult for you in the game later!"
Anyway, Parsifal himself definitely didn't have that much money to buy a heavy-duty motorcycle to participate in the competition. His broken car was only worth a few hundred gold coins, so he said a little sourly.
To be honest, if he hadn't needed to verify whether his idea could win the game and get the bronze key this time, he would have really wanted to follow the opponent, wait for the opponent to be killed, and then run away. Got gold coins! Of course, it is also possible to take the opportunity to pretend that it was not intentional and stab the opponent directly, and then collect the bounty that he could not even imagine?
"It's not clear who is making things difficult for whom!"
o(??^｀)o
Who is she, Lady Queen Anne? She is a super driver even more powerful than the car god of Qiu Mingshan!
Back then, in the chaotic battlefield of Reach, she had driven through the street fighting like a hail of bullets! The situation was so dangerous at that time, and the alien weapons were so powerful that she didn't even overturn the car. Now it's just a competition, and those uneasy and kind-hearted guys can't use weapon skills to attack her in the competition, how could she possibly do it? Fear?
"Ha ha!"
"Parsifal!"
"How about it, are you sure this time?"
Seeing that everyone was getting ready and the track had started to change in front of him, Edge stretched his arm out of the car window and faced Pasifa, who was also sitting in the car and still looked a little embarrassed and angry. Er asked.
"Ah!"
"Maybe, but you will know later..."
Parsifal will not tell them that he actually already knows how to crack Halliday's competition game, but he is not in a hurry to tell it now because he plans to get first place first. Let that Artemis know how powerful he is, and then let her and the players in the oasis look at him with admiration!
Of course, let the little girl who bought a motorcycle worth 100,000 gold coins, but still couldn't win the game in the end, feel envious and jealous?
"Artemis!"
"What about you? Are you sure?"
Edge looked at Artemis who was riding a power motorcycle, wearing a helmet and having a beautiful figure, but he didn't know whether she was a man or a woman in reality and asked.
"have no idea!"
"I will try my best. If there is a chance, maybe I will rush over?"
Artemis was noncommittal because she still couldn't figure out a good way to deal with the King Kong that finally intercepted the player before the end, so she could only act according to circumstances.
"That's it..."
"Then everyone try your best. If it doesn't work, don't force it!"
Edge did not ask the little girl Annie, because he knew that the other party was participating in the competition for the first time. If he could survive by chance, if he did not destroy the expensive motorcycle, he would be grateful. How could he expect the other party to win?
