"If I'm not wrong, the system NPC should have the role of training newcomers and guiding the development of the plot." Qi Zhen said slowly.
"And Han Chen is exactly such an NPC!" Qi Zhen said firmly.
"From the perspective of training newcomers, I prefer that he will be more in line with the team's strategy of cultivating newcomers. For example, in our team, if laissez-faire is the team's training method, then it actually goes against Han Chen's own mission. If you were Han Chen, what would you do?"
Qi Zhen's words made everyone fall into deep thought. Only Xiao Bai still looked at him with a smile.
"You don't have to think too hard. I'll tell you how he did it. He chose a very smart method, which is to exploit new people by getting close to them!"
Qi Zhen looked at Yu Liang and said, "Are you disdainful of his behavior?"
Yu Liang nodded.
"This is what he has no choice about. It seems that his purpose is to exploit the newcomers, but in fact he is still guiding the newcomers to complete the game. Only in this way will his behavior be reasonable. The purpose of training you is to get closer to you, and to get closer to you. Exploiting you, that makes sense.”
"As for promoting the development of the plot, if we perform very well like this time, completing all the tasks required for the plot completely on the lawn, and successfully resisting the invasion of zombies, wouldn't this game be too simple?" Qi Zhen said.
Every time Qi Zhen mentioned that Plants vs. Zombies was simple, she would get blank stares from Yu Liang and Jiang Yan, and this time it was no surprise.
"So what he had to do was to force the development of the plot. I had always guessed why Han Chen could do this. Later, I really couldn't figure it out until we defeated Dave."
Qi Zhen pointed her finger at Xiao Bai.
"Since he can participate in the game as an NPC, why can't our teammates be NPCs?"
Everyone fell into thinking at once.
"This matter... is impossible." At this moment, Li Qiang, who was in front of the touch screen, finally spoke slowly.
"But captain, you heard what I just said." Jiang Yan said.
Everyone knew that she was referring to the system voice that sounded in their ears.
"But I... still can't believe it." Li Qiang's slightly hoarse but firm voice still came slowly.
"Captain, I think you may have misunderstood something." Qi Zhen became very serious and said to Li Qiang.
"What do you mean?" Yu Liang asked.
Qi Zhen said slowly, "You must understand one thing!"
"Even if we come out of each individual game, we are still in the game!"
Everyone was shocked.
"That's right. If you can figure this out, it will be very meaningful to our team and to each of you." Qi Zhen said.
"Look at him." Qi Zhen pointed at Xiao Bai.
"Is he real?"
"And those." Qi Zhen pointed to the touch screens suspended in the air.
"Do you think those are real?"
"And this." Qi Zhen picked up Yu Liang's iron bow.
"Do you think this is real?" Qi Zhen asked Yu Liang.
"So!" Qi Zhen's eyes slowly swept over everyone.
"We are still in the game, but the games we participate in are just games within the game!"
"Although I understand what you said is right, I really need an explanation." Li Qiang said.
"About Han Chen, I can never believe that he is just a character in a game."
Li Qiang closed his eyes, his thoughts seemed to drift far away.
"When Han Chen joined the team, he, like you, knew almost nothing. We went through life and death together and struggled in each game. I still remember him telling me that he was an orphan, so He doesn’t want to go back. The world there is far less nostalgic for him than this world. Being with his teammates like this, constantly overcoming every game and every difficulty, is what makes him happiest.”
As Li Qiang spoke, a crystal tear fell from the corner of his eye.
The sadness and sadness revealed inadvertently by a tough guy are the most touching.
"You know I once played a game, a very classic domestic RPG game called Legend of Sword and Fairy. In the fourth part, the protagonist is named Yuntianhe. In the end, he was blind and his partner died, but he was killed by a certain dragon. I made a joke with the King of Hell to let him live forever. Do you know how painful it is for him to stay in front of his wife’s grave every day?”
Everyone was confused and didn't know why Qi Zhen suddenly mentioned another game.
"I don't know how painful he felt at the time, but I was deeply moved by that emotion."
Qi Zhen's voice was a little low.
"What we at least know is that we are in a huge game, and the only person we have to play is ourselves."
"Then please tell me, does that guy named Yuntianhe know that he is just a game character in the game?"
Everyone was silent, including Li Qiang who was crying silently.
"The thing I want to tell you all is, as long as the game continues, this will never end."
"I feel sorry for Han Chen's situation, but how can you be sure that he knows that he is an NPC?" Qi Zhen continued.
"Maybe the system gave him such a design, and he can only keep moving forward in this fate until at a certain moment, according to the requirements of the system, he becomes a villain and then dies." Qi Zhen As he spoke, there was uncontrollable sadness in his tone.
"And every one of us, isn't that the case?"
Qi Zhen finally finished her conclusion and let out a long breath.
"So why do you say this team is not strong enough?" Yu Liang said.
"I don't want to fight with you, but no one said that there is only one NPC that advances the game." Qi Zhen said.
Everyone's body was shocked again.
"Let me give you an example. Meng Ran said she was a police officer, but is she really a police officer?" Qi Zhen said.
"Maybe this is a setting imposed on her by the system? If one day in a certain game, Meng Ran suddenly receives an order, or there is no order at all, but she thinks that the whole team's decision is wrong, She must act according to her own ideas and actively promote the development of the plot, which ultimately proves that she is also an NPC. Are you ready to accept this result?"
"No, no, no, I'm not an NPC. I'm really a real person. I was born in Minhang District, Shanghai. My ancestors were police officers, and my parents were also police officers. That's why I decided to take the police college exam. I..." Meng Ran hurriedly asked. explain.
"We believe you, because those must be the most firmly believed memories in your mind. However, we have no way to prove whether these memories were forced on you by the system, and you can't prove it yourself."
Everyone was silent.
Because they know that what Qi Zhen said is true, and this situation may happen to each of them.
"Speaking of which, you should be the most NPC-like among them, right?" Jiang Yan said at this time.
Qi Zhen knew that she wanted to ease the quiet and depressing atmosphere, so she smiled slightly and nodded towards Jiang Yan.
"I can't believe or identify myself now, just like you all, but the only difference between me and you is that I can accept that I am a virtual NPC, and I think it is better to survive in the game. I happen to be better at living, and besides, who says that what I am doing now is not the mission given to me by others?"
Although everyone's expressions were still ugly, they were much stronger than before.
"Yes, life is a big dream, and who is not in a huge game?" Lin Xiao, who had been silent, spoke at this time.
"Hey, our coach Lin, do you understand?" Qi Zhen joked.
"I don't understand. I still don't know how to play the game, but I want to survive and accumulate enough points to leave this crappy game." Lin Xiao said.
Li San snapped his fingers.
"That's right. Although our purposes are different and the reasons for coming here are also different, one thing is that none of us want to die inexplicably in a place like this."
"So, since we can't survive alone, let's unite together and live well!" Li San said.
"Yes, live."
"Stay alive!"
Xiao Bai on the side looked at the people who had regained their spirits, nodded slightly, and murmured: "Finally, it feels like a team."
Qi Zhen continued: "Don't rush to beat the chicken blood yet. The reason why I want to say this is to remind you old people, in the previous game process, have you experienced being suddenly betrayed by your teammates, or having your teammates do something wrong?" What unbelievable things happened that prevented things from developing according to your previous ideas?"
"And after those mistakes or intentional mistakes occurred, did you have attrition, and the attrition teammates died inexplicably, which made you feel unbelievable?"
This time, not only Yu Liang and Jiang Yan, but also Li Qiang showed a surprised expression.
"Looking at your expressions, I know I guessed correctly. It was indeed the case." Qi Zhen sighed.
"This is why you have been living so hard..." Qi Zhen continued.
"You mean..." Yu Liang looked at Qi Zhen and then at Jiang Yan.
"Yes, you are right. There is a high probability that those people are like Han Chen. Next, please give me some time. I want to take a good look at the exchange items in this preparation hall, and then I will share the money with everyone. , the same is true for points, I think a unified arrangement will be better." Qi Zhen said.
"Captain..." Yu Liang looked at Li Qiang.
"I am no longer your captain, he is." Li Qiang said.
"No, you will always be the captain. For a person like me, it's okay to be a staff member. If you want to talk about leadership skills, I'm far behind." Qi Zhen shook her head, unwilling to accept it.
"It's too late, I have handed over the captaincy to you." Li Qiang said.
"Then I can hand it over again." Qi Zhen said.
"It costs a lot of money to hand over a captain." Li Qiang said.
"Okay, then I'll reluctantly put my name on it first." Qi Zhen was happy.
Everyone looked down upon Qi Zhen again, but Qi Zhen didn't care and held her fists in front of everyone.
"Ask, accept, accept."
"Xiao Bai, is there anything else we need to know now?" Qi Zhen asked.
"No more. I have told you all the information you need to know. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time. No matter where you are, just call my name." Xiaobai said.
"Then when will we start the next game?" Qi Zhen asked.
"There is no fixed time for this. The system will prompt all team members ten days, three days, and one day before the start of the game."
"I understand, thank you very much." Qi Zhen nodded.
"Xiao Bai, I'm glad to serve you." The pink-haired maid disappeared in an instant, and only the team members were left in the preparation hall.
"Next, let's take a look!" Qi Zhen walked to the touch screen and rubbed her hands.
