The heartthrob npc in the holographic game

This is the killing platform of the Yu clan.

On the thousand-foot-high cliff, only the Yu clan with wings can go up. The iron chains around the platform were blown by the strong wind, rattling, and one could smell the smell of rust and blood.

A protruding black rock on the edge of the cliff is carved into the appearance of a Yuzu law enforcement officer holding a spear. The whole is tilted downward, lifelike, not angry and majestic, and the spear in his hand is pointing directly at the center of the stage.

The dark crowd formed a group, and there was a person kneeling in the middle of the table.

Dark clouds rolled in the sky, and then there was the sound of a whip breaking through the air. The bloody smell of the black whip approached the tip of the person's nose, and there was a heavy sense of tension in the breathing of the whole place.

The owner of the whip was a woman, with her long hair tied up and wearing a soft armor, she looked heroic. Behind her was a pair of huge wings, glowing with golden light, and each feather was like a thin piece of steel. Like a blade, a slight fan will bring a gust of wind.

With a slight movement of her hand, the whip seemed to be alive, like a snake spitting out a letter, wrapped around the kneeling man's neck in an instant, and the clear sound resounded throughout the world.

"Xie Shuangxue, my Yu Clan has clan rules, you should know it when you come in."

"Those who colluded with the demons, kill."

"Those who betray the ethnic group, kill."

"Cruel those of the same kind, kill."

Every time she said something more, the whip in her hand tightened a little, and the kneeling person could no longer refute, and his body was bound by heavy chains, unable to struggle, the whole person was pressed down on the ground, showing thin spine.

His body was covered with scars, it seemed that he had received a lot of punishment before, and blood seeped out from his thin clothes.

Because of being suppressed by a powerful force, the tortured Xie Shuangxue faced down, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly where no one could see, as if the pain was unbearable.

But if someone looked carefully, he could find that he seemed to be talking, but he couldn't make a sound.

If you look more carefully, you can find that his mouth shape is exactly the same as that of the woman on the stage, as if silently repeating her words in sync, as if he has experienced it many times and already knows what she is going to say.

"You have committed the third crime of killing, and you have repeatedly provoked dissension, committed the crimes of the subordinates, and refused to mend your ways after repeated admonitions. It is really not wrong for me to take your life."

In the midst of the woman's sonorous and forceful sound of trial, under the gradual tightening of the whip, Xie Shuangxue was hanged under the whip without any accident, and lost her life in an instant.

But witnessing such a tragic situation, the surrounding Yu people didn't have any sympathy, and some people went over to spit.

A person who has done all kinds of bad things has killed countless people. Naturally, he deserves to die.

The dead sinner, Xie Shuangxue, fell to the ground. Before he died, he stretched his hands forward, in the direction of the woman who took his life, as if he wanted to grab the hem of her clothes.

But he could never touch it.

At this moment, a man appeared from behind the woman, dressed in white, with picturesque eyebrows, and a gentle expression on his face, his whole body was like a piece of warm jade.

The man stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and naturally brought her eyes to him, and the voice he spoke seemed extremely warm.

"The traitor in the family is dead, Your Highness, let's go. I made soup in the room, and His Highness can drink it when he returns home, so he doesn't have to worry about these troubles anymore."

The woman who was called "Your Highness" glanced down at the hands held by the two, then looked up at each other. After a moment of silence, she replied in a faint voice: "I hope so."

At this moment, Xie Shuangxue was already dead, her body tilted, revealing a blurred face, as if covered with a layer of veil, her facial features could not be seen clearly.

"Okay, stop!"

With this sudden sound, the solemn trial scene stopped, everyone stood still in place, all expressions froze on their faces, and even the wind froze.

Then, a man in black overalls suddenly appeared in the crowd, with the words Tester 07 printed on his chest, a blue wave-like logo next to his name tag, a helmet on his head, and a walkie-talkie near his mouth. I put my head down and ticked the box behind "Reality Test 19–6" on the board, and then said: "The wind is too strong, the experience is not good, it hurts my eyes, change it."

"Also, notice the angle at which players stand when running the plot. Some players are afraid of heights, so it's best to lean in. There are also some bloody scenes that need to be covered by the crowd. Its environment should not be too scary and bloody, be careful of being reported after going online."

"and also……!"

Tester 07 looked down at the blurred face of the dead Xie Shuangxue, and complained, "What's wrong with the art team? Didn't you promise to give it to the character yesterday? The npc Xie Shuangxue has no face until now!"

"Wait a little longer," the walkie-talkie replied, "The situation is special, the art team is busy now, and the protagonist has to be changed again. This kind of supporting role can only be placed at the back. Anyway, there will always be some before the official launch. .”

"Okay," tester 07 finished writing a few questions on the recording board, and then said to the other side, "Quickly, cut a plot."

Then he disappeared in a hurry.

With his departure, the place of Zhushatai also disappeared, no one else could see it, only the "dead" Xie Shuangxue slowly stood up from the spot, opened his eyes, and captured this moment.

The scene in front of me didn't disappear all at once, but all the colors gradually blurred into one piece, and then turned into nothingness.

He has seen this scene many times, but every time he sees it, he feels amazing.

What's even more amazing is that the people around him stood still, as if they were sculptures and disappeared with all the scenes. Only the figure of Xie Shuangxue standing there was clear.

There seems to be something wrong with this npc.

If tester 07 was still here, he would have heard him complaining to himself.

"The position of the supporting role is also wrong. According to the setting of the plot, Elder Mei is about to be promoted to the elder of law enforcement at this point in time. She should be in the second place on the killing stage. Tsk, our Yu clan has many rules."

"But it doesn't matter...you should find out after I die a few more times."

That's right.

Xie Shuangxue knew that she was an npc in a game.

Unfortunately, he is not the main character.

This is obvious, after all, how could the protagonist die in the middle of the plot.

The man and woman with lines that appeared in the test scene just now are the real protagonists in this main plot, and the main perspective of the entire layout has always been on the two of them.

About two months ago, when entering the pre-test for the first time, for some reason, Xie Shuangxue, an ordinary vicious little villain, had a vague sense of self-awareness, and then began to figure out his current situation step by step .

The game he is playing is called "God and Demon", developed by the game company Boundless Sea, and it is currently the most popular holographic online game in the league.

Now, less than a month away from the third anniversary of Gods and Demons, the game will soon be updated with a new version, a new map will be released, and a new main storyline - the Book of Floating Dreams will begin.

Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the Yu clan, as the representative of the gods, was one of the most powerful races in the world of gods and demons. However, because they did not deal with the demon world, they fought with each other continuously until Princess Chunyao was selected as the heir. The contradiction between her and her husband is even more serious, but Luo Yin, the seemingly weak and docile lover beside her, has gradually revealed her identity as the prince of the demon clan...

And he, Xie Shuangxue, is just an orphan adopted by the Yu Clan. He has a gloomy personality and a good face. He has a crush on the princess, so he deliberately colludes with the Demon Clan, tries to usurp the throne in the Yu Clan, and secretly mutilates the clansman many times. In fact, he is the future Demon Emperor Luo Yin. a chess piece.

After the bad things were exposed, she was strangled by the princess Chunyao, which also aroused Chunyao's suspicion of Luo Yin, which can be regarded as a small climax of the plot.

Xie Shuangxue has gone through many tests, and he has memorized these plots fluently.

As time passed, his body was no longer controlled by the plot, as if he had recovered from freezing, so he moved his hands and feet, and quickly scanned the surroundings, as if waiting for something.

Afterwards, he quickly saw several white rays of light rushing across the killing platform in the disappearing scene.

Xie Shuangxue's facial features have not yet been fully finalized, so her face is blurred, but her basic functions are online, her eyes can be used, and she can see naturally.

These rays of light are like a group of shooting stars, the speed is extremely fast, Xie Shuangxue swept away the depression before, and immediately ran forward, like a nimble little leopard, it leaped up at the moment the platform under its feet disappeared, and flew towards the sky. The meteor swarms that go away go away.

When he threw himself into the "meteor swarm", it was like a magnet, the surrounding light was attracted and gathered around him in an instant, and then Xie Shuangxue fell completely, and after all the scenes disappeared, the whole person fell on a cloud as soft as a cloud. place.

Blinking again, the surrounding environment has completely changed.

The Execution Terrace and others have all disappeared, and all the gorgeous scenes have turned into a gray halo without borders, like a scattered mirage. Occasionally, streams of light flashed across the top, but it was too high , has been out of reach.

Xie Shuangxue looked down, and saw that all the light that was attracted by him just now slowly melted together in his palm, and wrapped around his wrist casually, turning into a thin silver bracelet.

got it.

He breathed a sigh of relief, then moved his neck.

The traces of punishment on his body have completely disappeared, only the pain remaining in his neck reminds him that he just died again in the plot.

Generally, there will be no pain after leaving the plot and entering this space, except for death.

Because he was strangled, the feeling of suffocation would remain for a long time, which was very uncomfortable, like an uncomfortable sequelae.

It's a pity that there is no NPC Human Rights Protection Association here. He has no place to complain, and he can't find a similar person to discuss with. Naturally, he can't explain why this is... Just like he doesn't know why he awakened his self-awareness during the testing phase.

After figuring out what was going on, he also tried to escape, but once he entered the plot, his body was out of his control, and at most he moved the corners of his mouth where no one could see.

And even if you break away from the plot, you can't get out of this place.

This is a game world, he is just an npc living in the setting, he must become a sinister, cunning villain who can't get what he wants, and his fate seems to be doomed.

Even if he awakened his consciousness, he couldn't change anything.

Every time Xie Shuangxue thought of this, she would sigh heavily.

I'm so miserable that I don't use an npc.

However, after his death this time, he will have no role to play. The next round of tests will not be so fast, and there will be a period of time alone.

Xie Shuangxue sat cross-legged and touched the light on her wrist.

His groping in the past two months is not without results. For example, he found that he can use it to get some "little surprises" by taking advantage of the disappearance of the scene at the end of the plot to attract those streamers.

That's it for now.

I saw Xie Shuangxue turning her wrist slightly, and the streamer around her wrist began to move, and a tiny spot of light radiated from her head and floated in the air.

As the light spot moved, in the next second, a rectangular frame appeared in front of his eyes, about the size of two palms, a bit like the smart notebooks used by those testers.

After opening it, the information on the screen kept jumping and updating, and at the same time, the streamer chain between his wrists became shorter and shorter as time went by.

This is the world's largest holographic game forum - Youjia.

By accident, Xie Shuangxue found a way to log in to the forum to spy on the screen, as long as the streamer obtained is consumed.

It seemed like only he could see it.

The first time he bumped into it by mistake, he didn't know why, but after learning more things, he gradually had some guesses.

This is the flow of data from the outside world.

The management of Boundless Sea is strict. In order to ensure the network security and information confidentiality of the main brain chip Sea, the office equipment of the Shenmo game department is divided into internal and external networks. It is an important source of work, which can be directly logged in on the company's intranet background.

Those rays of light that drifted past from time to time were probably the evidence that Boundless Sea Company's workers went to the forum to fish for fish, allowing him to take advantage of Xie Shuangxue's loopholes.

However, Xie Shuangxue does not have an ID, let alone speak, and the forum version owned by his npc who sneaks on the Internet is obviously much behind. There is only one screen as big as two palms, which is the most basic flat mode, which is very cramped and consumes light. There are still restrictions on online time, but it is better than nothing.

Whenever Xie Shuangxue had the chance, she would take a stroll inside, trying to learn more about the game.

Now that he is getting more and more proficient, he has attracted a little more light this time, which should be enough for him to use for half a day.

At the beginning, he couldn't understand everyone's speech, but he learned quickly. He also figured out what a game is, what an npc and a player are from here, and it was his place of enlightenment.

However, the folk customs of the Enlightenment Land of "Stubborn Family" are notoriously fierce. After all, games, there will never be a shortage of irritable netizens.

For example, today, as soon as the interface was opened, a long knife came directly towards the door. This kind of impolite appearance is particularly stubborn.

Afterwards, a pair of jade-white hands caught the knife, and it was Xie Shuangxue's acquaintance, Princess Chunyao who held the knife.

Chunyao is dressed in armor and full of heroism. He can't see his whole face clearly in the fierce fight, but he can still see the determination and courage from this flowing fighting action, and the half of his appearance that is instantly revealed is even more stunning. It has the mystery of still holding the pipa half-hidden.

He was fighting against Luo Yin. Unlike the scene just now, he looked as gentle as water, like a weak scholar who was harmless to humans and animals, but the power surging in his body was full of oppression.

The two collided in strength, and when they looked at each other, they didn't look like pure enemies. The eyes were full of complex meanings. In an instant, the sense of story and visual effects were directly full.

This is today's forum opening screen advertisement.

It is still the god and demon he is familiar with.

This 30-second promotional video is the first batch of materials for the game’s third anniversary. Before the official trailer was released, a large-scale publicity had been done. Of course, the opening screen advertising space of the forum is also among the ranks of precise placement.

Open the forum, players have a lot of discussions about this.

Demon Emperor Luo Yin actually appeared in the previous main storyline. As a glimpsed character, the character has a full force value. Now he finally appears as the protagonist, and his image is much younger.

Many fans who have already become fans are screaming below. In terms of production level, this promotional video is really nothing to choose.

Of course, there are also less harmonious sounds.

"Boundless Sea hasn't released the official trailer for the third anniversary yet, so this is out, what's the point?"

"Today's agreed-upon notice of the event has been skipped, and the dog will die after planning it!"

"After finishing the previous main story line and watching this advertisement again, you can basically guess the plot of this time. It's this kind of entangled emotional line again. I can write eight of these characters and scripts a day. It's boring. There is no novelty at all, no wonder I dare not make an announcement.”

Sure enough, it's time for Gods and Demons to be scolded again today. The more people play, the more people will criticize.

But don't scold too quickly, Xie Shuangxue thought, these two people are not as simple as you think.

After all, he is the protagonist, and the character design is far more complicated than what he saw in the promotional film. He has experienced the plot and knows it naturally.

Demon Emperor Luo Yin's character design in the previous main line is an extremely powerful legendary senior with a particularly good-looking face, so the scenes that appear in the plot line for less than a few minutes can attract a lot of fans.

The plot line of the Book of Floating Dreams happened hundreds of years ago. At this point in time, he, who had not yet grown up, was still hiding in the Yu clan to try his best, and pretended to be an innocent and well-behaved little milk dog in front of Chunyao, Xie Shuangxue When he died, he was still pretending, with a gap in reality and full of ambition.

As for Chunyao, this one has a greater degree of reversal.

Because "she" as a princess is a standard women's wearer.

Her Royal Highness is actually a man, because of the prophecy of the inheritance of the Yu clan, she had to pretend to be a woman for a long time.

Xie Shuangxue felt that part of her awakening might be caused by this fact.

In the plot, he knew the news before he was about to die, and he was caught immediately. After all, even an NPC couldn't accept the fact that the distorted "goddess" who had a crush on her heart suddenly turned into a man.

But that kind of emotion is too far away to recall now. After Xie Shuangxue was fully awakened, she was repeatedly used by Luo Yin in the plot line that was constantly put into testing, and was killed by the princess many times. Looking at them now, it is not true. Resentment, of course, and the love originally generated by the control of the plot naturally no longer exist.

He was just a little envious.

It looks so cool.

They are all characters manipulated by the plot, but they are the protagonists anyway, and the characters are carefully designed, both good and evil, and they are also full of stories and reversals. Most importantly, they don't have to die.

However, this will still be scolded by the players.

Let me get acquainted with it first, he thought silently, after he goes online, he will probably be scolded by the forum for such a low profile.

But in addition to these, there are different dramas in today's forum. The third anniversary of Shenmo is not very peaceful.
