"Maybe you will be shocked by its beautiful scenery when you first enter this game, but don't be fooled by this appearance. In "Free World", survival is the first problem that needs to be solved." After turning a few more corners, Iron Ambition He led Duan Qing and continued walking in one direction, which was probably his destination.
"Among the problems of survival, the first problem you need to face is not to starve to death."
"What, the wild boar brought to the entrance of the village is meant to be eaten?" Duan Qing was shocked: "Do you have to find food by yourself here? Cook by yourself? Then don't people who don't know how to live in reality have to... ..”
"Of course not. Don't you see, I'm doing pretty well, even though when I first came in... haha." Iron Ambition smiled, but looking at his wrinkled smile like a steamed bun , perhaps remembering some painful experience, so the topic was ignored by him: "After all, it is a game. The existence of the village is to solve these problems. You can bring all the edible things you can get in the wild to the village. Some villagers will exchange survival supplies with you, such as water, bread, dried meat, etc. You can even buy them with money and trade them with other loot..."
"Most of the villagers in Xinshou Village are very talkative people. As long as you take out some random things, such as furs, frog legs, bones, or even go to the wild to pick some flowers and plants - of course weeds are not allowed, at least you can eat them. If there are herbs Or the seasoning characteristics would be better - the villagers in Novice Village will usually accept it. Well... you also need to say some good words, commonly known as brushing up your favorability, as long as you can fix some of your customers, Your survival here will basically be no problem."
Iron Ambition laughed: "In short, do it yourself and have enough food and clothing. The residents of the Free Continent have made this sentence more concise... When you leave the village and go to the town, the residents there will be much more difficult to get along with. , but there will be formal channels for you to eat there, such as... pubs and restaurants."
"This is actually quite good." After turning a corner, the sun shone directly on their heads. Duan Qing stretched out his hand to block the sun, and then said: "In a world where the cool effects of fighting scenes are everywhere, how can you pay attention to it?" The survival aspect of the game, I have to say...well done."
"But this way, players will have to pay attention to many more system prompts in this world..."
"No, the system won't prompt you with these things...you will feel hungry yourself."
"What?"
"Thanks to the fourth generation virtual technology." Iron Heart made a gesture of raising his hands to the sky: "We can feel more feelings in the virtual world, not only pain, hunger, cold, burning, but also other physiological sensations Reactions and virtual technology can be simulated very realistically. So, if you go without eating for a day in the free world, you will feel... very uncomfortable."
"Believe me." Iron Ambition made a serious face and patted Duan Qing on the shoulder: "That feeling will be something you will never forget."
"Uh, hehehe... I don't want to feel it." Duan Qing made a gesture of wiping sweat: "Then... if you are in such a bad state of hunger, the character's performance will be affected. Does it affect? For example, attack, defense, releasing skills, etc..."
"No one will go out to fight when hungry, unless there are special circumstances, so... no one has tested it." Iron Heart spread his hands: "At least I have never heard of anyone who is so bothered to do this. This kind of test, maybe someone has done it, and then maybe it was eaten by wild wolves. As for skills..."
He sighed: "It's even harder to say..."
"oh?"
"Skills...skills...let's put it this way, the skill system of this game is very...strange, there is even no skill system..."
"Ah?" Duan Qing made a puzzled expression.
"First of all, there are almost no skills in this world. Brother Mo, haven't you seen the official introduction made by the game company?"
"Um, I haven't seen it. I just randomly picked this game to play..."
"As expected, Brother Mo is really...well, let me explain it to you again."
At this time, they had passed another intersection and arrived at the west side of the village. In front of them was a relatively empty alleyway. The hot sunshine was still shining from the heads of the two of them, giving people a warm feeling. The wind blew from the alleyway. After passing by, several children who were obviously NPCs appeared from their side, bringing with them a burst of laughter. As if in response to this peaceful scene, the sound of guitar music sounded, echoing in the ears of the two of them.
Does this game have background music? Duan Qing looked at Iron Ambition, who seemed to understand what he meant, pointed in one direction and said: "Bards...every town has this thing", then remembered something, covered his forehead and said: " But there is a troublemaker these days..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud voice came: "The north wind flows through the city, surrounding thousands of mountains."
A voice like a broken gong and a song like a howl suddenly broke the previous tranquility. The voice, which had almost no rhythm and could not even be called singing, came from another direction. The voice was abrupt and obvious, harsh and unpleasant, but it was full of momentum, like a wild wind and wave, instantly overpowering the guitar playing like a trickling stream.
Iron Ambition shrugged helplessly, his eyes seeming to say to Duan Qing: Well, this is it. Duan Qing looked in that direction, and the group of children started to shout: "Ahhhhh, it's that bad old man again..."
"I can't bear it..."
"Let's go find him."
The King of Children gave the "order", and then a group of children ran away with cheers. One of the little boys seemed to know Ambition of Iron and made a face at him before running away with the group of children. Ambition of Iron smiled helplessly, stopped and explained the skill system in "Free World" in detail.
The skill system in "Free World" can hardly be called a system, because there are very few skills that have appeared so far.
Among the players who have already played and are currently in the first echelon, the information they can find and the information they publish themselves shows that there are very few skills registered in their skill columns, and most of them are duplicates. . And almost none of these skills are learned from the game world, they are all learned on their own.
Among the rules that can be drawn, comprehending a skill requires taking appropriate actions with the appropriate weapons or equipment. Once an action is recognized by the system, you have "comprehended" this skill.
"The slashing, thrusting, blocking, and parrying that I have learned now were all learned by myself during wild battles. Although I didn't pay attention to when it happened, it happened naturally." Iron Ambition Control After taking a look and realizing that no one was paying attention around him, he took out a short blade from his waist. Although it is made of iron, it does not look very sharp: "But like this, the system will not prompt anything."
As he said this, he waved the dagger in his hand a few times and turned in a circle: "Look, I made a spinning slash, but I don't have the skill of spinning."
"Maybe the system thinks this action is just a chopping action..." Duan Qing said while touching his chin.
"Your thoughts are also the thoughts of most people now, even the professional players in the alliance." Iron Heart quickly put away the weapon: "It is probably because these actions are still counted as basic action variations of slashing, so the system does not recognize it. .”
"So, if you hold a dagger and stab the front in rapid succession, it's just a few 'stabs'. If you hold an ax and swing it around, it's just a 'chop'." Iron Ambition Shrugging: "Even if you show off with a weird weapon, as long as it is still within the range of the system's known skills, it is still not considered a new skill."
"Interesting..." Duan Qing whispered.
"Hey, it is said that when "Free World" was first launched, many players thought that the game was very poor in terms of the skill system. Several well-known players even made several comments saying that the skill system in "Free World" was very poor. "There is no freedom at all", but the game company officials were indifferent to these comments and ignored them. In addition, other aspects of the game were indeed attractive, so this kind of criticism was gradually submerged and disappeared in the subsequent hot trend. "
"Of course, many people in the alliance have not made negative comments about this system. On the contrary, many people have begun to dig out the possible secrets in these settings. However, during this period of time, they have made no achievements and can be recognized by the system. The skills were listed in a pile again and again, and then everyone took a closer look - it was still the same general skills."
"So only actions that can be done and are not repeated can be called 'skills', right?" Duan Qing lowered his head and concluded: "Well... it's really interesting."
"So now..." Iron Ambition led Duan Qing forward: ""Free World" is also called the 'Skill World' because many people have begun to study the skills in this game. I hope To be able to discover the secrets.”
"Every day, countless discussions and results are posted on the Internet, but most of them are useless. As for research in the field of professional players...ha, God knows if they are hiding it, etc. Let’s give everyone a surprise during the new UEFA Cup. In short..."
"These are the existing skills that are known to the majority of players. Sweep, charge, slash, slam, and even throw weapons... In your words, when the fate comes, you will naturally learn it. ......I guess so."
Ambition of Iron touched his belly with some uncertainty: "Maybe I can also learn cooking..."
"What?" Duan Qing interrupted him hastily: "Don't you have the skill of cooking?"
"No." The two of them got into a shadow-covered alley again, and the cool feeling hit their faces, waking Duan Qing out of his deep thinking state. "Maybe it's because this kind of thing is not considered a combat skill... Who knows."
"In the current research on skills, there are no rules that can be recognized by all players. Everyone is just guessing."
"Then don't you have a reliable guess..."
"Of course." Iron Heart frowned and thought for a moment, then raised a finger.
"That conjecture is based on a fact, which proves that high-level players do have more skills than low-level players. Although there are only a few more, but with such a small base, these skills The strength and advantages represented can be imagined." Iron Ambition slowed down: "Based on this, the players have come to a certain conclusion: to understand more skills, certain high-level advantages are needed to achieve it. .”
"Well," frowning and narrowing his eyes, Duan Qing fell into thinking again: "These people have many advantages..."
"Don't think blindly, these are still just conjectures." Iron Ambition didn't think that much, so he waved his hand indifferently: "The most obvious advantage is the attributes. But... there is no data or The rules can prove that there is an obvious correlation between attributes and comprehension skills. If there is really a monster who can prove that there are rules, why would he come to play games? Go and make more contributions to future technology and society. Bar!"
He paused for a moment, then returned to the original topic: "In the final analysis, there are no rules for learning skills in this world. It's just a matter of luck. For me, including the new players here, now Being able to possess these skills is all thanks to the numerous experience summaries of predecessors, just picking up others' wisdom. As for whether there are any laws, players who have played before have not discovered it. Will there be any in the future..." He made a general statement. As if entrusting the future to Duan Qing, he patted him on the shoulder: "It's up to you."
"Go, go, you are the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning. We are both the same." Duan Qing pushed away the big hand: "According to you, if you want to master more skills, you must first have Higher attribute value, right?”
"That's just about it. In short, the higher your attributes are, the more skills you will have." Iron Ambition continued to walk forward: "You will have many opportunities to feel this in the future. .....”
The two of them suddenly saw that they had turned out of this alley. Under the bright light, an old house appeared in front of them. The house in front of me is obviously relatively simple. A lot of rocks have fallen off the white-gray walls, exposing the wood inside. There are still a few pieces of grass on the roof tiles, but they are sparse and it looks like it has been lost. It has the function it should have; there are two windows on the side, with a field-shaped structure. The glass on the windows is still there, but looking at the marks on it, it seems that something was pasted on it before, but it is no longer there.
There is an old wooden door in front of him. Behind the wooden door, the clanging sound of iron can be heard faintly. Iron Ambition gestured to Duan Qing: "We're here."
"Ahem...Although it may be a little rude, it's better for me to ask. You should know the rules, right?"
"Oh, of course." Duan Qing said.
Virtual reality games have been developed for so many years, and organizations like the Alliance have been established for a long time. In contemporary society, many ethical issues that arise when characters simulated by data get along with each other in virtual games have been discussed many times. This kind of discussion always arises as a social topic due to certain events, and then it attracts the attention of most people, and then rises to the level of theory, and is crushed by experts and scholars with words and words... .... If we were to talk about the most famous incident, it should be the "Village Massacre Incident" in a virtual reality game called "Tian Xia Ba Sing" a few years ago, which triggered thinking in various fields about the treatment of virtual characters. As the most authoritative leading organization in recent years, the Alliance has not turned a blind eye to such issues. Many regulations that should be observed have been put forward in order to maintain the stability and tranquility of the virtual world.
Of course, the alliance does not have the ability to enforce. They only advocate the same contents as these treaties and hope that the majority of players will abide by them. In fact, everyone agrees with those "suggestions". After all, most people in this world still have a conscience. of.
Among them, one of the more meaningful ones is to use role-playing to communicate with NPCs.
And this is what Iron Ambition just wanted to mention.
After confirming this, Iron Ambition knocked on the door, and the sound of hammering inside stopped: "Who is it?"
"It's me, Ironhearts, and a... friend I brought with me."
The voice inside paused: "Come in."
The two looked at each other, then Iron Ambition opened the door and walked in first.
