Otherworldly Architect

"No, this... This is also an assassin? This is also considered an infiltration, this is also an assassination?"

After Xia Cheng asked, Ming Yan was very calm and said, "According to our system, as long as no living person sees it, the infiltration is successful. By the way, as long as no witnesses survive, the assassination is successful."

So, in order to sneak in, you have to kill all the living people?

In order to assassinate, you have to kill everyone present?

Xia Cheng: "..." There is no way to refute this seamless logic.

In the test server, you can see the assassin walking through the front door, and he is not afraid of the thousands of troops.

I saw him bully him and use his long sword to confront the enemy.

First, he took a limit move to avoid the spears of the two in front of him, and then took a delicate spin to avoid the next attack. At the same time, the long sword had wiped the enemy's throat.

The long spear had not yet landed, and he was picked up with his toes and held in his hand.

The people next door who were watching with gusto nodded one after another, and Blue Star's martial arts instructor said, "When facing so many people, one inch long and one inch strong will always be stronger. Taking a long spear is the most correct choice."

Ming Yan asked: "We haven't done the inertial guidance of the spear yet?"

The designer looked at the notes in his hand and said helplessly: "This part of the content is basically not done. This player... No, this test player is completely relying on his own experience to fight."

Everyone was surprised.

Although the games of the interstellar era are very hard-core, they are not so hard-core that they rely entirely on players to fight... Otherwise, wouldn't they have cultivated hundreds of billions of Predators?

In fact, there are so-called "inertial guidance" in the game, that is, auxiliary measures provided for the player's actions.

Just like in stand-alone FPS games, there will be assisted aiming: when the player's crosshair is a little bit closer to the target position, the system will automatically help him calibrate to the center, and there will be no human body strokes.

In the new project, several standard actions of assassins are guided by inertia, including: three random actions for aerial assassination, weapon block, hidden sword assassination, seven random actions for rolling and climbing, etc. Wait.

Xia Cheng jumped into the river with the Odin NPC before, and he used a set of inertial guiding actions. In fact, he didn't have to worry about jumping incorrectly and falling on a cliff.

When players get used to inertial guidance, actions will naturally become more standard.

In a heavyweight league like the League One, of course, there is no such auxiliary program, it all depends on the hard-core battles of the players...

The combat skills they use can really be realized in reality, and the only limitation is the player's own physical strength.

Therefore, the gap between professional players and ordinary players is getting bigger and bigger, and the gap between the top level of professional players and the ordinary level is also terrifying.

The champions of the League A competition and other characters, in reality, can really be a match for a hundred enemies!

Just like the current assassin player, when facing the siege of various NPCs, he can even seem to be able to do it with ease.

At the beginning, he was also injured twice because of the enemy on the back.

After the health bar dropped by half, he seemed to have figured out the attack intervals and attack methods of the NPCs, and chose to continue fighting against a load-bearing wall.

Then he ended the battle like a storm...

A total of 42 NPC enemies rushed to the battlefield one after another, but they were all terminated here by him!

Even the heavily armored enemies didn't bother him much, because these tin cans were so clumsy that they were like stone men in front of him, and they didn't bother to care about them after removing their joints.

After all NPCs are killed, the red alert state will automatically disappear.

- Well, because no one alive saw anyone sneaking in.

So the assassin swaggered and continued to "sneak", walked to the mission target who shrank in the corner and shivered, and simply handed out the long spear.

Ding, mission accomplished.

At the same time, since there were absolutely no (living) witnesses, it was a successful assassination.

No one could hunt down the assassin, so he walked out of the cathedral and calmly opened the task settlement interface.

【mission completed.

Sync rate: 100%

Task evaluation: Grandmaster.

Please return to any of the Bluebells' strongholds to receive quest rewards. 】

When Xia Cheng was still stunned, Ming Yan and the designers had already started discussions.

"It seems that the combat AI of the heavily armored NPCs needs to be enhanced, and they have to continue fighting if their legs can't move. The difficulty is a little lower now."

"In the highest alert state, the speed of the influx of enemies is a bit distorted. Test it several times so that all the enemies in the entire alert area will be present within one minute."

"By the way, the mission evaluation has to be added by one. The player passed the mission in a positive and rigid way, so don't use the assassin's evaluation method, you can change one—"

"Well, for example, to give a 'Berserker' evaluation?"

"Will it be a bit far from the theme, it would be better to call it 'Wu Shuang'."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha is to use the simulated armline? I feel complete OK, it is called 'unparalleled', and then with a sentence" I am a real assassin. There is no doubling! ' ."

While the designers were joking, they recorded what they got from this test.

For the specific evaluation content text and the like, follow-up plot planners will naturally be responsible for follow-up, which is not the focus of this test for the time being.

Xia Cheng looked thoughtful.

Ming Yan asked, "What's wrong?"

Xia Cheng said: "I know why the difficulty of Mortal Soul is like that... What kind of freaks are your test players!"

Ming Yan said innocently: "We just invite some fans who play Bluestar games on a daily basis. You see, there are ordinary players who can pass the mission so strongly, that only means that the difficulty of the mission is too low. , it doesn't matter if it's a little higher."

Xia Cheng: "No, it's so important!"

Ming Yan smiled kindly and said: "Anyway, our players have already experienced the soul of mortal nature. I don't think there is anything that can stop them, just let them do more work."

Xia Cheng: "..." The devil?

In fact, new games are only difficult to achieve 100% completion.

The completion of each task has different evaluation criteria.

Like in this teaching level, there are three evaluation points:

First, follow the phantom of the great devil Odin and come to the vicinity of the mission target within a limited time;

Second, maintain the "sneak" state before assassinating until the mission target is killed;

Third, after the assassination, get rid of the tracking within a limited time and return to a safe state without warning.

It doesn't matter if the three evaluations are the lowest, as long as the target is killed, the mission is complete.

For example, a novice assassin is in a hurry, can't climb up the church, can't sneak into the target, trigger the alarm and have to go in, and may die a few times in the middle...

It's okay, just make a comeback.

A dart can be fired to kill a mission target in the chaos.

Then in the chicken flying dog jumping with the chasers running wildly, if you can't get rid of them after circling the city three times, the system will automatically let the chasers return.

It's just 10% of the task completion, it's not ashamed.

If you upgrade from a "student" assassin to a "trainee", it's enough to do fifty 10% tasks. After all, Chief Master Ming is not a devil, so he is very reasonable to deal with rookies.

After the test is over, Blue Star will send out lunch boxes to all testers on a daily basis.

Even if this is an internal test in the studio, the canteen master has already pushed several carts up, and today there are thirteen fragrant crayfish in it.

Xia Cheng mixed in and got a box lunch, but it didn't attract much attention.

The Blue Star staff chatted and laughed, and after they got used to seeing this young man, they became accustomed to it.

Xia Cheng came to sit next to the tester who opened "Wu Shuang" and found that neither of them had Blue Star's work cards on them.

Xia Cheng greeted tentatively, and then the latter said with a smile: "Are you also specially invited to take part in the test? This is my second little red badge, so happy."

I saw this cool and arrogant unparalleled assassin took out a small red badge (Blue Star is specially used to reward test players), and then like a kindergarten child got a small red flower, sticking it on his chest with joy.

Well, it's quite a puffy chest.

Xia Cheng: "..." No, it's not quite the image of a master I imagined.

Next, Xia Cheng got to know the details of this master.

This person's name is Luke, and his ID in Alian is "Char Siu No. 2"...

Does this ID look familiar?

That's right, he is the second disciple of the Great Demon King Odin! I have been studying with the Great Demon King for nearly four years, and have entered the League A League Assassin player very early!

How skilled is this person? In the global ranking of Assassin players, he is stable in the top ten, and from time to time, with the progress of the League A, he is approaching the top three.

Xia Cheng: "…"

- Ming Xiaoyan, come back and explain! ! Is this what you mean by "ordinary players"? ! !

Luke is 20 years old this year, and he is considered to be the youngest among the League A players.

He was sent by the master to participate in the game test. After all, this game still has Odin's authorization in it.

As the **** of assassins, although they didn't come to play directly, they sent a disciple to hand over and take part in the internal personnel test by the way, which is also normal.

It is said that Luke is the most accomplished among the three disciples of the great devil Odin, and he is also the best character.

Just look at the "little red flower" on his chest.

Well, it's also possible that the teacher's mother taught by words and deeds.

In short, Luke came all the way, tested the game diligently, and happily ate lobster.

With an idiotic look on his face, he said, "Blue Star's benefits are really good, the games are fun, and Master Ming is amazing! Can I ask him for an autograph?"
