Chapter 485 The situation is not good!
There is nothing more charming than the vast darkness in the boundless sea of ??stars, and nothing can compare to the secrets hidden in the boundless stars. Human beings live on a small island called ignorance in the dark ocean. This ocean is vast and contains endless secrets, but we should not sail too far or explore too deeply.
When we can piece together all the mutual knowledge, the real world that unfolds before us, and the human condition in it, will drive us either to madness or to escape from the terrible light to the tranquility of darkness. new century.
?As long as you accept your sins calmly and cross the black abyss, what awaits you will be eternal magic and glory.
———The special linkage mission [The Indescribable Challenge] has been launched, and all players are welcome to participate.
I will join you sister! !
Duanmuhuai''s hair stood up when he saw the advertisement in the linkage activity column. He had to hold a tablet in his hand and throw it out!
??Duan Muhuai has certainly done this linkage mission in the game, and to be honest, the rewards for this mission are very good, and the best reward is the reality anchor.
For players, this is simply an artifact to restrain evil gods!
After all, when an evil **** appears, the entire world will begin to distort and change as the subspace erodes reality. The reality stabilizing anchor can prevent the subspace from eroding reality and stabilize it in the real state again, so as not to run away. Go to subspace.
To be honest, if this thing had existed on the novice planet, Duanmuhuai would have just thrown one of those portals to one side and blocked the subspace passage directly.
But... think about it carefully, how simple can a mission be if the reward is an artifact like the Reality Anchor?
In fact, the difficulty is simply beyond the sky!
[Unspeakable Challenge] The content of this linkage activity itself is not complicated. Simply put, players go to a world, assume an identity, and then solve various problems in that world to find the reasons behind those events. And solve it.
To put it bluntly, it actually allows the player to play the role of a detective, and then solve some murder case, some disappearance case, or some strange and mysterious events.
Of course, that''s all... But the problem is that behind these events, there are some indescribable, indescribable great beings that exist in the darkest and deepest corners of the world. !
Every time a player encounters these great beings, as long as their emotions fluctuate, they will lose SAN points. The more intense the mood swings, the more the SAN value will drop. Once it''s all gone, it''s a gameover and you have to start over.
To be honest, this is a very unfriendly setting for players, because this is not like an ordinary mission, where you just need to kill it suddenly and it will be over. In fact, many players complained during the linkage mission that it was like going from a churning FPS set to a ghost movie set of The Ring in the blink of an eye, with all kinds of scary things popping up at every turn. Of course, similar situations are not unheard of when facing evil gods, but the problem is that there is no such thing as SAN value in the main mission. If you are scared, it doesn''t mean you can''t play it.
??However, this linkage mission has a SAN value limit, which makes players frustrated.
Not only that, there is another very disgusting thing about this SAN value setting, that is, once the player''s SAN value drops too much, the world in his eyes will change. Players with full SAN value only see the normal world, while players with too much SAN value may see a ground covered in flesh and blood, street lamps turn into white ribs, and the light bulbs inside turn into twisting eyeballs... If they drop more, even the NPCs on the road will no longer maintain their human form in their eyes, but will become like a collection of wriggling earthworms... ugh... it feels disgusting to say it.
So for many players who are easily frightened, this linkage mission is simply a vicious cycle - after being frightened, the SAN value will drop - if the SAN value drops too much, the world will begin to distort - and the more you will feel when you see the distorted world. Frightened - the SAN value continued to drop - and then the world became more and more distorted - and then the SAN value was reset to GAMEOVER.
Therefore, for many players, this linkage mission is very difficult. This is not because of the difficulty of the monster setting itself or the difficulty of the decryption steps, but because the SAN value setting directly detects players without looking at their body values. Emotional. The more intense the player''s emotional ups and downs, the more the SAN value will drop. After all, you can''t fake emotions.
So those who are able to pass the level in the end are basically ruthless or heartless players. Even if many people want to pass the level, they will not be able to do so in the end.
After all, this setting is too disgusting. Especially the more players whose SAN value drops, the more worried they will be about to GAMEOVER. As a result, the more cautious they are, the more likely they are to be frightened...
?On the contrary, it is easier for those heartless players to pass the level.
?Of course, looking at their appearance after passing the level, it is difficult not to wonder whether they went crazy after doing the task, or whether they went crazy before doing the task...
By the way, when the linkage mission started, too many players were frightened and persuaded to quit by the SAN value. After receiving complaints and protests from players, the official added a small patch - they updated a new product called Sanity Stabilizer in the mall. A certain amount of SAN value can be restored by drinking the potion. However, if the potion is used, the evaluation will be lowered at the end of the task. The more potions used, the lower the evaluation will be.
Of course, you have to spend money to buy it.
?This company really wants money...
?But it is obvious that I will never encounter such a good thing.
Silently opened the mall and took a look to make sure there were no sanity stabilizers in it. Duanmu Huai also sighed silently.
Next, we have to consider who to take.
? It is not that there are no players in the game who bring NPCs into this mission world, but to be honest, this is definitely a wrong choice. At the beginning, many players felt that there was a specialization in the art industry. I was responsible for fighting, and the NPC was responsible for collecting and investigating. Isn''t this just right? The result was good. The SAN values ??of the NPCs dropped sharply and were cleared to zero. After coming out of the mission world, these NPCs were either crazy or useless, leaving the players dumbfounded. The NPC followers that I worked so hard to train are now so useless? Became a madman? ?
?This is also the second reason why the official will put Sanity Stabilizer on the shelves - after all, players have too many opinions, so they can only use this method to appease players.
??As for those who are reluctant to spend money to buy sanity stabilizers to treat NPCs... You are not even willing to spend the money, but you still have the nerve to say that you love her?
?Well, it once again proves that this company is really desperate for money.
If this is the case, it is not enough to scare Duanmu Huai, and the reason why he is scared is very simple. In the game, each linkage mission is equivalent to the "outpost" of the enemy that the player will encounter next. To put it bluntly, it makes the player Let’s experience it in the linkage mission first, at least it won’t be so embarrassing.
? And this mission appears here, which means that I will encounter something indescribable in the future? !
etc………
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai suddenly remembered that when he chopped down the beast of Elden at the junction, the shape of the beast reminded him of a great existence in the infinite starry sky... After a long time of fussing, he guessed it right?
?This is... really unpleasant.
?Of course, if you are unhappy, you will still be unhappy, and the joint tasks must still be done. It would be really blind not to take something as good as a reality anchor!
Now the question is...who to take?
?Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai started to think.
You cannot bring anyone with high intelligence. After all, the higher the intelligence, the higher the inspiration, and the easier it is to contact the indescribable reality. Therefore, magicians such as Ann, Gulea, and Feilin are all excluded.
Lani and Ogis cannot be brought with them, because according to player records, things like robots are also easily affected in that world. Although Lani and Ogis are not robots, they are still man-made in a strict sense. They must not be brought with them. If they are affected, it will be troublesome.
??So it’s best to be that kind of person who is optimistic by nature, heartless, laughs at everything, and is very nervous... Is there such a person around me?
Ann, Gulea, Lumiel...their intelligence is too high to bring.
Lani, Ogis... I don’t dare to bring any artificial objects.
Bambi, Kula, Audrey, Sydney, Eclair, Kanami... are too weak to carry.
Satra, Sezer, Hauser, Honeyt... are busy rebuilding the demon territory and have no time.
It seems like...the only ones who can go with him are...Suzuki and Lorena?
?Hmm, that seems good too?
As a devout believer, Lorena''s faith is quite firm. And Suzu Girl is indeed heartless, laughing and joking all day long. And their abilities are also very useful in that world. Lorena''s iron fist is invincible and can also be used for healing, while Suzuki can be responsible for detection and warning...
?Of course, whether they want to go or not depends on themselves.
So Duanmu Huai found Lorena and Lingnu and explained the situation to them.
“Suzume is going! It sounds very interesting, nya~o(=∩ω∩=)m”
As expected, after listening to Duanmu Huai''s description, Lingnu was the first to raise her hand excitedly, while Lorena thought for a moment, then made up her mind and nodded to Duanmu Huai.
"I am willing too, Lord Knight. I think this may be a test of my faith. I will not escape! For me, this is also a kind of practice!"
"Oh well."
Since Lorena said this, Duanmuhuai did not object, but nodded.
“Get ready, then let’s go!”
