Tranquil and bleak old town in the wilderness.76Please respect copyright.PENANAglHf9FYrgn
At the center of the town, at the intersection that has been deserted for an unknown number of years, in front of the earthen platform that serves as the birth point, three white skeletons, each with their own distinctive age wrappings, stare at each other.76Please respect copyright.PENANAicfd7zvkVO
"Wait, I remember there's an initial skill called 'Appraisal Technique'...... " the sweet-voiced Skeleton Two tapped her head, looked down and checked the character panel that only the players themselves could see. Raising his right bone claw, he snapped his fingers towards Qin Guan and Skeleton Three.76Please respect copyright.PENANAvl1ZiX6bOS
"Got it!" Skeleton Two's jaw clicked as if he was excited, "I can see your IDs!"76Please respect copyright.PENANADRcNJM8g5m
Qin Guan's head is full of questions: "Huh? What did you say? What's the art of appraisal?"76Please respect copyright.PENANABy9tCvjYB4
"Ah, right oh, there's also Appraisal." The rough-voiced Skeleton Three seemed like he also remembered, and after about doing some kind of operation, he also snapped his fingers towards Two, Qin Guan, "Eh? Vanilla Pudding?You're obviously a male ...... Wait, this voice of yours, you won't be the B station's siren big man, Grass Big right?"76Please respect copyright.PENANAR3EgMy20UO
Qin Guan couldn't care less about being proud to be recognized at this point in time, he was so anxious that he was about to jump in place, "Wait why do you all have initial skills? How come I don't? How does this work?"76Please respect copyright.PENANAzkoMy7jkNd
This confused Two and Three instead, "Isn't it right under the character panel?" "Yeah, just call out the panel and you'll see it."76Please respect copyright.PENANARFsMfOKrPN
Qin Guan hastily called out the character panel he had acquired after selecting his game character ......76Please respect copyright.PENANAttfkg2fO0T
On the left side of the panel, is information about Qin Guan's character:76Please respect copyright.PENANAjVuJwvRdBO
"ID: Vanilla Pudding."76Please respect copyright.PENANARYYmmDK7eL
"Race: Undead."76Please respect copyright.PENANASPK3MOuotg
"Sex: female"76Please respect copyright.PENANA0n0v7yrjNw
"Rating: 0"76Please respect copyright.PENANAJAKMiuYA1J
"Potential: 37"76Please respect copyright.PENANAc2Xxcq5LKq
On the right side of the panel, there is a taskbar that shows the inactive state and can't be tapped, inactive achievement information, and a personal log.76Please respect copyright.PENANAYl3Nj1jC2Z
And then it's gone.76Please respect copyright.PENANAItRQPsvVCM
"There isn't! The only things on my panel are my character information, quest bar, achievement information, and personal log, there's no initial skill as you guys said?" Qin Guan sweated anxiously, "Is it because I picked a female number? Can't play with a siren number?"76Please respect copyright.PENANAAo6Ys03BcA
"It can't be possible, can it, then players who like to play with Siren numbers are still playing." Skeleton Two said strangely, "You really don't have an initial skill panel? Right below the potential value, there's clearly an entry for available skills, and there's the initial skill 'Appraisal Technique' on the entry, right?"76Please respect copyright.PENANAiQNrpgiGQn
Qin Guan froze.76Please respect copyright.PENANAnOnVqOWBs3
Confirmed his character panel again, Qin Guan vaguely produced a kind of bad premonition: "Wait ...... to the potential value of this place are the same, is the potential of the following no ...... you two potential value is How much?"76Please respect copyright.PENANAMrYJZhHkP5
Skull Two said, "48."76Please respect copyright.PENANA1Pncz99bK9
Skeleton Three looked at Two in surprise, "This potential isn't by race? There's a personal distinction? I'm 42."76Please respect copyright.PENANAcohF0zRoMl
Qin Guan's jaw barely dropped to his chest, "Holy shit ...... I, I'm 37 - what the fuck, characters with low potential can't even use skills? Holy shit I'm going to cut my number and re-select!"76Please respect copyright.PENANACaOGxq9jb4
On Earth, in a server room with only one server, Yang Qiu, who was watching these three people, secretly shook his head, "It's useless to cut the number and re-select it brother ...... It's not the character's problem, it's that your spiritual power is not up to par."76Please respect copyright.PENANAlCtNLSbrZI
In order to provide players with an experience close to that of a "real game", Yang Qiu chose to mimic the idea of an alchemy golem in order to remodel the "game characters" offered to players.76Please respect copyright.PENANAFAQL2BbIys
Of course, there was still a big gap between the game character and a real alchemy golem - this kind of self-propelled combat aid that only alchemists could afford to play with would require at least thousands of gold coins of magical materials to build a sturdy and durable body, more than fifty magical runes to be inscribed to support a variety of combat systems, and a built-in magical crystal as the core of the Driving.76Please respect copyright.PENANAIKuMdynhOY
Game characters don't need to be that rugged, and with the player's soul at the controls, the most expensive built-in cores can be dispensed with; in other words, Yang Qiu just needs to work on the supporting runes.76Please respect copyright.PENANAi7lNNiD8ui
Easier said than done, researching this set of supporting runes had made Yang Qiu scratch his head - he could dislike the runes as hard as he could, anyway, this kind of supporting runes could be energized to replicate as long as he got a set out of it, however, the most important thing was whether the player's spiritual power could carry and drive it or not!76Please respect copyright.PENANAQjlEZvJNh0
A family minivan engine in a tank is going to flop!76Please respect copyright.PENANA6MfYvwDfUH
So ......Yang Qiu could only handpick the runes he was considering using, first chopping them down to a weakened version, and then picking and choosing to put together a rune array that was as less engine-picking as possible ......76Please respect copyright.PENANAkd3sXkoR71
In the end, the rune array inscribed into the game character, in addition to the two essential runes of spirit branding and resurrection summoning, there were also three basic runes of "spell detection", "elementary meditation", "elementary battle roar", "elementary wind magic", and "elementary wind magic". "Elementary Meditation", "Elementary Combat Roar", and "Elementary Wind Magic".76Please respect copyright.PENANA83ACnbtyBg
The character panel (including character information, quest bar, achievement information, and personal log) that the player can see by himself is a visualization of personal information loaded in the Spirit Branding Rune, which can be displayed after the player's soul activates the Spirit Branding, and is just a particularly simple visualization of information that doesn't add much to the burden of consuming it anyway.76Please respect copyright.PENANAimw4P5J6Xf
The real consumption of the big head, "Spell Detection", "Primary Meditation" and other runes, potential (mental strength) less than 40 players, can not be activated ......76Please respect copyright.PENANAM6zObAe0sE
Players who meet the 40-point potential condition to activate Spell Detection and use the initial rune "Appraisal" also have a limit on the number of times they can use it, well, that is, the built-in CD ......76Please respect copyright.PENANAnDAJuzH1cK
Of course, the purpose of setting these thresholds is to extend the length of time players are online, not to drive them away.76Please respect copyright.PENANAPXMBlCtQNj
Moreover, the potential (spiritual power) is not fixed, but can be increased; the player's soul in the "game" process is equivalent to the soul "running fitness", depending on the personal growth of different, can get different degrees of improvement.76Please respect copyright.PENANAENzlZ9UAz5
That is, if you're liver enough, there's definitely a day when you can use your skills ......76Please respect copyright.PENANAeVIM3qeXJr
"Seeing as how this is the case, the difference in the materialized value of latent qualities will still hit motivation ...... Should we add a 'character quality' randomization note up there to save respect for these types of players? Well ...... add a note that the game character is irreplaceable, so that they can misinterpret their weakness as bad luck."76Please respect copyright.PENANAsTHK2Bw3CO
Yang Qiu stroked his chin as he pondered over the patch, and inside the undead birthplace, Qin Guan couldn't find the option to delete his number after searching for half a day, hanging his head and covering his face with his hands.76Please respect copyright.PENANAnM7BoLcsEs
"Don't lose heart ah grass big, maybe it is out of the bug is not certain it, which have chosen the wrong character can't even use the skills, later quit the game to send an e-mail to ask the producer to have." Skeleton Three advised.76Please respect copyright.PENANAPSdsOxojXd
Skeleton III ID Give Me Medicine, real name Yao Hengyi, real life occupation is a construction engineer, light game enthusiast, not a fan of Qin Guan but have seen Qin Guan's videos.76Please respect copyright.PENANAu10YqPOL7V
"Yes, besides, the official also did not say that the closed internal test deletes or not, if the deletion of the file, then open the internal test again when the change of a character is good." Skeleton two female players also spoke out to comfort, "Speaking of which, have you noticed that today is clearly the first day of the [otherworldly] game to open service, up to now on line or only three of us it, it is not allowed to say that the closed internal test is finished the game on the closure of the closure of the game ......"76Please respect copyright.PENANAe4EN2GwnjB
"Holy shit!" Give Me Medicine and Qin Guan jumped up at the same time.76Please respect copyright.PENANApsbQ7tzYcy
On Earth, Yang Qiu in the engine room silently covered his chest.76Please respect copyright.PENANA1ArascXd9t
Number 2, do you ever feel like you're being a little mean ......76Please respect copyright.PENANAQIj6FxyPab
"It would be a shame if this game went out of business!" In the undead birth point, Give Me Medicine said a fair word, "Although there are bugs, but this game is really strong, the details are especially in place, VR games can achieve this degree simply blow up! Grass big, why don't you help make a video to publicize it, and call more people to play?"76Please respect copyright.PENANAcQtEc9yQuc
"I started recording videos when I chose my character, and I'm recording them now." Qin Guan said, "The personal log in the panel is for storing screenshots and video information, I guess the officials also have the idea that they want the players to help them as a tap."76Please respect copyright.PENANAjLF7a8TvHr
Number 2 was delighted, "Eh, then am I allowed to be on camera?" With that, he gave a scissor hand to Qin Guan, and his white-boned jaw was pulled downward, as if he was trying to make a smile ......76Please respect copyright.PENANADrAjZMWdSa
Qin Guan & Give Me Medicine: "......"76Please respect copyright.PENANAeUJcePrpQI
"Forget it, why don't we first see how this game is going to be played ...... Uh, it's rare that the three of us are so fortunate to run into each other on the first day of logging in, why don't we team up?" Qin Guan said.76Please respect copyright.PENANAannxVxgvuZ
"It has to be." Give Me Medicine, who was already a roadie fan, responded immediately.76Please respect copyright.PENANAagGTve5FCt
"Could be could be, if I had to play alone this birth point I'd be a bit afraid to wander around, horror type games aren't really my thing." Number two chimed in.76Please respect copyright.PENANAmlx7SkWuO3
Invite to group this feature must be there, after grouping players can see each other's IDs and blood bars.76Please respect copyright.PENANAtCtOrIcpTL
There is no numerical display on the blood bar - this is not a real online game after all, you can't calculate the resistance to combat according to the blood bar. ...The main reason for this is that players are afraid that they will be so prodigal that even a thousand year old skeleton can be turned into crumbs, so it's an insurance policy in advance.76Please respect copyright.PENANAqEAEMsTTqF
The three players who had formed a team, stepped out of the birth point and curiously surveyed the deserted town.76Please respect copyright.PENANAGqkjlWK1ui
"This place ...... is really broken enough ah!" Skeleton Two exclaimed, "The ruin-themed exploration videos I've seen are a heaven on earth compared to this place, where on earth did the artisans get the scenery?"76Please respect copyright.PENANAo1SwdK1bpj
"The birthplace of the undead, that's the kind of atmosphere you want." I think Medication kinda appreciates this deserted town, "It's too clean and tidy compared to Dark City, not at all like a place where the Forsaken should squat ......"76Please respect copyright.PENANALWuMfqKNwF
As they spoke, the trio rounded a rickety cabin.76Please respect copyright.PENANAeZjJqzFbXL
Whether it's Qin Guan, who's recording a video with the character's own first-view camera, Two, who's full of newfound wonder, or I think Medication, who has a face of contented surprise, the jaws on the trio's skeletal faces all drop neatly down.76Please respect copyright.PENANAXfZnolWawN
On the side of the cabin, a zombie crouches.76Please respect copyright.PENANABE7ueOAelP
A half-rotted waxed zombie.76Please respect copyright.PENANADtWxBquRv9
Only half of his head had flesh and skin, most of his body was covered in dark greenish skin, a small portion was exposed white bone, and he was sitting in front of the rickety cabin with his hands on his knees, wearing a torn pullover and pants of indistinguishable material with the legs rotted halfway down.76Please respect copyright.PENANAwDU7psYU9y
Three players are just ordinary young people, life only from the horror games or horror movies have seen the corpse, this moment caught off guard to see such a rotten particularly bizarre half-waxed zombie, all to the instantly stunned ......76Please respect copyright.PENANAORsG0UA1Wh
The zombie, with his hands on his knees, slowly raised his head, his lustreless dead eyes looking towards the three players.76Please respect copyright.PENANAH6UovEvGk0
At that moment, Qin Guan seemed to see the word "Danger" brush against his head, and the word was still in bright red ......76Please respect copyright.PENANAw8BLG0jRcz
"Hi fellow countrymen." The zombie spoke eerily, spitting words outward in a raw manner, "Looks like you guys just woke up from your eternal sleep, care to do me a favor, I can give you clothes as a thank you."76Please respect copyright.PENANAQz4FBI3rZq
Three Players: "......(° ∆°(° ∆° (° ∆° )"76Please respect copyright.PENANAbT0rglCWUP
