"Arrived ahead, terminal station, Haicheng High-speed Railway Station. Passengers please bring your belongings..."
G-12367 Xingli high-speed rail slowly enters the high-speed rail station.
Lu Li wore a peaked cap and stepped off the train.
As October approaches, the weather in Haicheng becomes hotter, and the ferocious autumn tiger returns.
Coupled with the influence of the source of light, although this city is close to the sea, it hardly rains. More than 95% of the time the sky is clear all year round.
The slightly harsh sunlight shone on the brim of the hat, casting a shadow on Lu Li's face.
He glanced at the phone screen and saw a voice note from Guild Elder Ding.
Ding Yongliang: "Xiao Lu, I will be here soon. I will take you to the dining hall of Xinghai Academy for lunch."
It has to be said that Lao Dinggui is a fifth-level card maker and the president of the Star Card Association branch. He has no airs at all and looks a bit like the uncle next door.
This is exactly the same as his teacher, Chu He.
Not only Chu He, but also the dean of Xinghai Academy, Zhang Liantao, and most of the star card masters in the Eastern Federation are like this.
In their philosophy, star card masters are scholars and craftsmen. They are just people with special skills. They are not superior to others.
On the contrary, most Star Card Masters were born in the Nordic Federation. In their eyes, Star Card Master is more like a symbol of power and power.
Since the emergence of Star Card Master, their noble class has been further consolidated. At the same time, becoming a Star Card Master is also the easiest way for a commoner to become a noble.
Walking out of the high-speed rail station, Lu Li shuttled between the busy traffic and the heat.
He stood on the safety island on the arrivals floor, waiting for Ding Yongliang to pick him up.
While waiting, Lu Li also took the time to check the Carp Star Card House and the announcement of the Star Card Game Console.
Xingkawu’s official scarf has new developments.
It is a promotional poster for the Star Card Game Console produced by Yao Yao.
The copywriting on the poster is very simple and crude.
"The world's first Star Card game console."
It can be said to be full of gimmicks.
Little Loli also specially marked the words "Star Card" in different colors to make them more eye-catching.
After all, in this world, the most attractive thing is the star card, not the game console or the game.
The development of games is sluggish in this world, and game enthusiasts like Yao Yao are considered a minority.
But Star Cards are different. Almost everyone is a fan of Star Cards, which makes the Star Card Competition extremely popular every year.
There is also a number "10" in the center of the poster, indicating that there are still 10 days until the release.
The number "10" is made up of various colored squares. It can be regarded as the first game of Carp Star Card House. It is a small easter egg of Tetris. Players can discover it on their own after the product is released.
The update was posted this morning, but the number of fans of Xingkawu Scarf is not overwhelming.
The comments section below is already packed.
However, the attitudes of the netizens who came to watch were quite different.
--game? I’m not very interested, but I still have to buy a game console made with Star Cards to experience it.
Lu Li even felt that many Star Card enthusiasts would buy game consoles but not play games.
They will only remove a few star cards installed in the card slot, and then use the star cards alone to explore the effect.
If the packaging case does not have an anti-theft function, it is estimated that many people will buy game consoles just to analyze the circuit on the card surface.
This situation is normal.
Carp Star Card House and Xinyu Starry Sky Hall have never been involved in the field of games before, and fans who pay attention to the official scarves of the two stores are basically not game fans.
Lu Li was not worried at all about this.
This time Tetris, and even a series of games installed on the Star Card Game Console, were just the stepping stone for him to enter the gaming industry, in order to gain popularity for subsequent games.
The content that the zero-level star card can carry is really small.
Making a game with rich content using only level 0 star cards is a complete fantasy, but ordinary people cannot use star cards of level 1 and above.
Lu Li also estimated that if he wanted to use level 0 star cards to present the popular Pokémon from his previous life, it would take at least fifty star cards to produce hundreds of Pokémon in various forms.
As a result, a Pokémon game card set would cost at least a thousand star coins, and the star card game console would also have dozens of card slots.
Playing games with "a long game console" is a bit cool when you think about it.
This is the problem Lu Li is currently facing.
The zero-level star card is not enough for games, but other star cards cannot be used by consumers.
"It's really difficult." Lu Li put down his phone, feeling a little headache.
To resolve this contradiction, he had two options.
One of them is the Star Card Technology, which breaks through this technical barrier that has been shrouded for hundreds of years.
But this road is a bit difficult, at least not something he, a first-level star card master, can do.
Lu Li could only choose another way, which was to change the game mode and make games in forms other than game consoles.
For example, building a real-life game similar to the "Escape Room" in the previous life, or real-person CS, etc., or...
"Beep beep beep..."
A car horn interrupted his thoughts.
"Xiao Lu, get in the car." President Ding's shining head poked out of the car window, "You can't park here for more than two minutes, hurry up."
"Oh, okay." Lu Li put his phone in his trouser pocket and quickly ran into the car.
President Ding’s car is a rare SUV model, with room for several people in the back seat.
Such a spacious model is not common in this world.
After the storage card appeared, both the house and the car became smaller.
"Let's go. It only takes less than half an hour to drive to Xinghai University from here, and we can still catch up with the little tail of the cafeteria." Ding Yongliang stepped on the accelerator.
Today happens to be a working day and the weather is hot.
The road conditions in Haicheng are very good, and there are no congestions along the way.
Xinghai Academy is the best and oldest Star Card Academy in the Eastern Federation. It occupies a favorable location and is built right next to the source of light.
However, there are still many non-Star Card Master employees in the academy.
Near the source of star power, the high concentration of star power makes them unable to move normally and will cause symptoms similar to oxygen drunkenness.
Therefore, in the history of hundreds of years, Xinghai University has gradually moved outwards, and a large part of the functional groups have moved to areas where the star power is concentrated and safe, forming a new campus here.
The school only leaves various training grounds on the old campus.
Lao Ding's car stopped at the gate of the school. He just stretched out his head and brushed his face to make it shine. The security guard opened the gate and let him go.
Seeing this, Lu Li asked the doubts in his heart: "President Ding, are you a graduate of Xinghai?"
"Yes, I graduated from here, and now my son is studying here." Lao Ding explained.
Lu Li nodded.
Okay, does this count as a son inheriting his father's legacy?
