"Letters Without Destination"
This letter, which can be opened and read by the player, is an important prop in the survival level of Gal Village. According to the consistent nature of the plan, this key prop is often randomly placed—the same as Alisa’s courage proof bracelet , similar props can provide players with important hints to solve puzzles, provided that players can discover the meaning in the props.
Compared with the courage proof bracelet, which requires more brains to think, the letter, which is a prop that prompts clues in words, is much easier to understand. At least after Yang Rui and Leng Qiubai opened and read the letter, even if they couldn’t comprehend the scene After sorting out the situation in the village roughly, it can be understood that everything is inseparable - the woman named Alisa in this letter recalled her not-so-good teenage years, the little freedom she gained when she left her hometown for a short time, The survival of the family sacrificed personal happiness, but she suffered unfair treatment due to complicated family conflicts and other reasons, and was ruthlessly rejected when she asked her original family for help. Unbearable, Alyssa finally chose self-destructive revenge.
From a certain level, the content of this letter is out of date. After all, what players need to play games is to relax mentally, not to be instilled with the so-called cruel reality and educational significance related to reality in the game... …Social civilization has developed to the end of the 21st century. Human exploration of space, deep sea, and underground has reached the peak of the era of human civilization. Artificial intelligence is infinitely close to the human brain. The brain-rate development imagined in "Super Body".What people like to see more is the lofty goals like the stars and the ocean, and the expectation for the coming of the interstellar era. At this time, suddenly in the online game that relaxes the mental function, the player is stuffed with "reality dark" SHI... a person with a bad temper It is to demolish the planner's balcony.
But...Although human beings are subconsciously unwilling to consider the so-called tiny darkness next to them, for example, when they see their husbands and wives domestically violent, many people habitually use the phrase "emotional disputes", which is vicious (or stupid) There will also be a sentence that the woman must have a problem, and she can't slap her hand. When she sees scars on the neighbor's child, she often doesn't think about "child abuse".Even in the era of looking forward to interstellar civilization, "implicit discrimination" is still stubbornly entrenched in the bones of modern people who think they are civilized.The mainstream media praises self-sacrificing police officers, medical staff, and educators. It seems that these groups are not worthy of happiness or individuality, and should live like stray dogs while making sacrifices for the public; The other half of the group, when the affirmative action is passed, the women admired by the mainstream crowd should still be the good wife and loving mother of Liu Huifang in the ancient TV series "Desire", and will not agree with the beauty of a maverick woman.
The NPC character "Alyssa" created in this task link is the planner's satire on this mainstream view—or it brings in some extreme ideas of the planner himself.
"...I can figure it out, this plan is from "Jin Funan", not "Blind Mountain"." Leng Qiubai complained, and took out another quest item "broken opal" to have a look Eye, "The explanatory text of this thing has also changed... The jewel that fell from Mrs. Jennifer's necklace? It means that the original Jennifer was killed by Alisa."
Leng Qiubai can still look calm on the surface, but Yang Rui, who was confused by his new world view, was dumbfounded, and he took a moment to answer: "Uh... the NPC who wrote this killed me." Jennifer? Who was that person just now?"
"Souls, ghosts, etc." Leng Qiubai said, "Except for Aina later, it's right that there are no living people in this village."
"Wait, wait." Yang Rui didn't turn the corner, "You mean that Gaal was already a ghost village when Aina arrived here?"
"Sure, look, didn't we search Alisa's letter outside? Aina never read it, so of course I don't know that there are no living people in this village." Leng Qiubai nodded.
"Then..." Yang Rui's face changed a little, "Didn't you say you saw graves in the backyard of Jennifer's house? If Alisa killed all the people in this village before Aina came, the corpses would be dead." Who buried it?"
Leng Qiubai was stunned for a moment, and the duck's face gradually showed unspeakable emotions such as struggle and entanglement. The sister took the letter from Yang Rui's hand and read it for a long time, then slowly raised her head, with a strange expression on her face. : "If you look at it from the perspective that Aina knows that there are no living people in this village, this matter will be difficult..."
The two players looked at each other silently, and at the same time turned their eyes to the NPC who remained stationary in the wooden house.There is nothing incomprehensible about this situation. Even Yang Rui, who lacks mental pollution education and has a modest mind, has enough film and television animation experience in his youth to understand the routine of this task.
There was silence for a while... Leng Qiubai and Yang Rui chose not to submit the letter at the same time. This decision is not difficult to make. The fact that they both ran fewer tasks does not mean that they have any IQ defects.The frozen NPC Aina returned to normal, and after a while with the two players, she suddenly patted her head: "By the way, I should introduce you to my sister~"
"..." To be honest, Yang Rui and Leng Qiubai didn't look forward to this kind of meeting at all.
Sure enough... Aina brought the player to the one opposite to Mrs. Jennifer's house among the three mansions in the village. After opening the door to the mansion, which looked very luxurious... the inside was dilapidated, even the floor was covered with There are potholes and cockroaches crawling on the walls.The strange thing is that Aina turned a blind eye to all this, and ran in normally calling "Sister". Not long after... this NPC with a bright smile and a delicate and soft style dragged a puppet similar to the movie "Ghost Baby" The doll steps out and introduces the player as her older sister, Alyssa.
After finishing this "friendly" meeting with great difficulty, Aina gave the player a task: help her collect the fruits for brewing fruit wine.The two players got out of Aina's line of sight after taking the task, and hurried around the village. It was no surprise that the village was so special that only the places that could be seen at first sight remained bright. The places exposed to people's eyes are as dilapidated as the small town in "Silent Hill".
"I want to say a more compelling line." In another parallel space, the cousin said with a stiff face, "Everyone knows it, but everyone doesn't say it... This sentence is really too good to describe the player's current situation." It fits."
The two Bugs Bunny are still Mrs. Jennifer's guests, and in front of them is a room full of NPCs and a happy scene - Mrs. Jennifer held a small wine party, so all the NPCs in the village came, including the What kind of Alisa, Aina who has a stubborn face and still maintains her super-serious transformation, and the servants and maids of Mrs. Jennifer's family.
The fifth brother was treated better than Yang Rui and Leng Qiubai, at least they could still sit on chairs.Two rabbits sat in the corner, one with a more helpless expression than the other.
"At this stage of the plot, the surviving players basically know what the so-called puzzle is... But this thing is like a rice cooker that has been left with bad food for half a year. Everyone knows that once the lid is lifted, it will be impossible to description, so no one has the courage to immediately take off the cover." Fifth Lin said.
"Hey, just hearing your description gives me goosebumps!" Wu Yuan shouted with veins on his forehead.
It is really not a problem for the fifth brother, these two wise generals, to solve the problem, but which aspect to start to solve the problem next is the trouble - it is easy to choose the normal route, anyway, there is no battle link, just break the window paper.It happened that the two of them walked on the difficult difficulty, so it was as impossible to start as a cat catching rice cakes and a mouse dragging eggs.
"The 'protagonist' is the big boss. This routine is too vulgar. After a long time, the NPC that the player comes into contact with after entering the village looks like the instructor of the Novice Village. In fact, he is the biggest villain, and he has the ability to instantly kill the player after turning his face... Don't you feel ashamed to use this kind of rotten memes for planning?" My cousin has a hot temper, and the PVP player's tolerance for vulgar plots is not as strong as that of PVE players.
"From my sister's point of view, it's understandable that Aina can't accept the truth about Alisa's incident. After all, strictly speaking, she is also one of the perpetrators... Part of her sister's 'selling her body' money is used to raise her." She, provide her with a superior life than others." Fifth Lin said, "The things that have been concealed for more than ten years are suddenly revealed. Aina rejects this fact mentally, and creates illusions and paranoia with a self-deceiving mentality. It is logically reasonable to push the cause of Alisa's tragedy to an 'outsider'. After all, if a person knows that the cause of the tragedy of a close family member comes from himself, then the person himself will be emotionally and intellectually It is unacceptable, in order to maintain the spiritual self, it is inevitable that they will try to beautify their own mistakes."
The cousin was silent for a few seconds, and slowly turned his head to stare at Wu Lin: "If you say anything about the NPC's emotional life and mental state, I will beat you up, and I will go to your house and beat you up."
"...In short, for our mission route, it seems that we have to start with Mrs. Jennifer." Fifth Lin said, "Now Mrs. Jennifer is a 'powerful enemy' created by Aina. Aina subconsciously believes that Mrs. Jennifer is someone who is invincible and can easily kill herself. Only by creating such an imaginary enemy can Aina accept the result of her sister being bullied to death."
The fifth source was startled for a moment, and then he understood: "Let the 'protagonist' be killed by the illusion created by himself? Well, it's very Chinese style. But..." The cousin nodded the NPC in the conversation with his little finger, " Even if that NPC is an imaginary enemy created by Temiao, Temiao’s personality is too distinct, it’s impossible to please her at all! How could she be allowed to kill Aina for the sake of the player?”
Wu Wulin held back for a rare moment before saying: "Actually, there is a way. Didn't the plot remind you? Aina was locked up by the servants before... she was released now."
The cousin understood in seconds, and then he went crazy: "Fuck, let the player surrender his knees and kneel like 'Alyssa' to hug his thigh?!"
Wu Wulin turned around and looked over: "It's understandable, deliberately shaping this NPC into this kind of queen setting is to let players make a choice: whether they have the determination to give up their dignity in order to clear the level."
"No, bro!" shouted the cousin.
"Anyway, we have kneeled once." Wu Lin patiently said, "Although the system did it for me."
"The big deal is that you don't have to go back to the city for free. What's the difference between calling dad everywhere in the arena if you can't make it to the top?!"
"There is still a difference. Calling Dad in the arena may not necessarily make it to the top. Here, calling Dad will pass the level."
After some disputes...the cousin chose to give in.It would be aggrieved for most of the people to lead a group out of missions and hang back. If he hangs back himself, he, a celebrity in the main city command circle, doesn't know how to go out to meet his friends.
The clearance time provided by this stage of this task is double that of the previous round, which is 24 minutes.Less than 15 minutes later, the fifth brothers both rushed out of Gal Village. The originally peaceful and beautiful village scenery behind them shook for a while and then gradually collapsed and disintegrated. When they ran out of the village and stayed on the grass again, from this angle The former Garr Village has lost its former brilliance, and has become a dilapidated and gloomy uninhabited village full of rocks and weeds.
The fifth brother didn't care about the true face of Jiaer Village. After they fulfilled the mission conditions, they didn't send out the picture directly. Instead, they brushed a row of bold and red explanatory text on the mission bar:
"This level is a common level for the team. If the total number of surviving players is less than ten, the level will fail."
"...I didn't clear the level even after calling Dad!!" My cousin's first reaction when he saw this explanation...was to catch Wu Lin and growl.
"Calm down, Brother Yuan, you know that the planning of this game has been brain-dead for a long time, how can normal people like us understand the brain circuit of a brain-dead." Fifth Lin said.
"Even if you say that - tell me what's the difference between killing the plot and sending it back to the city, and sending it back to the city after losing all morals?!" Fifth Yuan shouted.
"Die wiser?"
"..."
"I'm just joking, calm down." Fifth Lin patted his cousin's rabbit paw away, "It's a good sign that there were no dead people in the limited time last time, and now there are 18 people in the regiment including you and me, and ten of them survived. There is still a possibility of three. On my side..." He paused, "Well, I have five if I trust it."
The fifth source is not easy to say, he can't say that the group he leads can't even make up four of them.More excellent online games pay more attention to the communication between players, that is, they pay more attention to team activities.A common team requirement suddenly popped up at this level, and it was actually not too difficult to accept.
Glancing at the ID that was still lit on the team panel, Wu Yuan smiled wryly: "I understand that the NPC you escorted is not an ordinary person, at least it is at the level of Tang Seng who is learning Buddhist scriptures..."
Wu Wulin nodded in agreement: "The more players who participate in the normal escort mission, the better. This mission probably has a certain limit on the number of escorted players. If you look at it by the standard of the group book... more than 40 people is the difficulty of hell."
Fifth Yuan grinned grinningly, the people led by Fifth Lin and his team were close to the difficulty of hell: "...then we have to be thankful that we have a few fewer people, and we didn't rely on the difficulty of hell. It must be said that it is indeed a cross-regional escort mission, and it is not something ordinary people can do if they want to join in."
It's useless to say anything at the moment, I can only count on the strength of my teammates.It is also fortunate that there are not so many players in their group. Soon, a large 2D mirror image appeared on the front of the abandoned village they were facing. Uh, it should be the player's creature running wildly.
These two players... one is in the shape of Peter Pan and the other is in the shape of Hua Mulan. Both of them have white faces and look back while running; they are obviously relieved after running out of the village. Turning his face around, he found two Bugs Bunny standing side by side.
"Brother Lu, is there a problem with my optic nerve connection here, I seem to see a double image of Bugs Bunny...?" Hua Mulan rubbed her eyes vigorously.
"Huh?! Did you see it too? I thought I was the only one showing an error!" Peter Pan exclaimed in surprise.
"Okay, you two don't talk about cross talk." Fifth Yuan heard that the voice was from his own family, and said with a dark face, "It's okay to be old... Calm why do you look like this? Hua Mulan?"
Lao Lu, known as Master Lu, is the muscle hunter of Team Fifth Source.In fact, his ID is not called this, but because his appearance is so resembling a certain hero, he got such an nickname.Among the Disney characters, he should actually be more like the animated version of Superman, but the system gave him a projection of Peter Pan, which is not too inconsistent with his rough voice.
Of course, Master Lu is quite lucky, because the teammate he is grouped with is the warrior with the back of his head and the player whose ID is Jingjing Natural Girl. The good guy just made it into the shape of Hua Mulan. Temiao is the disarmed and returned to the field version... Hua Mulan's version of the big-backed warrior didn't even have time to make fun of his boss's exposed two-petal front teeth face, and cried: "Ghost knows what kind of grudge the system has against me, or it's my ID pot."
Master Lu had already laughed at his companion enough, now he looked at Wu Lin in amazement: "Then who is this? Brother Yuan, a replica of Bugs Bunny?"
Before Fifth Source opened his mouth, Fifth Lin stretched out his palm forward, and said sternly, "My friend, is there something wrong with your understanding of Disney animation? Look clearly, the genuine Bugs Bunny has white gloves."
"...that's not the point, is it!!" the fifth source shouted.
"Indeed." Fifth Lin nodded: "There are only six people left to confirm the customs clearance."
"What six people?" The two friends who had just escaped were puzzled.
"Look at the system bar, both of you... Fuck!" Fifth Yuan clicked casually, his gaze inadvertently swept to the distance, he immediately swears and exaggeratedly jumps on the spot like a real cartoon character, jumping three times The other three looked at him suspiciously, and followed his line of sight... "Damn it!!" X3.
But see... a 2D flat screen with a special sci-fi feel appeared on the front of the ruins of Gal Village again, and the mirrored Gal Village inside was also in a state of collapse.But it’s different from when they came out before. The front of the village is not a flat grassland in the safe zone, but a scene like the eruption of lava from hell. There is only one piece of lava floating on the surface, which can only accommodate one person. The stone-shaped pontoon bridge that passed and quickly shattered after being stepped on, when the four escaped players looked over, they saw a duck wearing high heels running wildly on that dangerous pontoon bridge.
Bugs Bunny can produce replicas, and old men can turn into Mulan, so the duck wearing high heels is not a point of complaints from players... What makes them uniform and messy in the wind is this duck running high heels holding high On the arms of the wings... holding a huge green monster.
A Hulk.
