Chapter 130 129 Promotion to T2
Chapter 130 129.Promoted to T2
The plot of this game seems a bit long. In short, after Liu Ni has played for more than ten hours, he still hasn't found any useful clues.
The only clue is that a group of crazy townspeople began to appear in the town. These people claimed that they dreamed of a city made of stone in their dreams, and in addition there was a gate too huge to be attached.
The appearance of these people did not have any impact on the town. Everyone looked strange when they saw it. It seemed that this scene was very common for the town.
Liu Ni inquired about it in surprise, but got an unexpected answer. This kind of crazy state is actually very common. It happens from time to time in small towns, so everyone is not surprised. After all, it only takes a while for these people to It will be back to normal again.
And this scene made Liu Ni think of something.
He once again dug out the three letters that his uncle had not sent. Looking from inside, he found that the dreams described by his uncle in the letters were surprisingly similar to the dreams of those people.
So he immediately followed this clue to investigate, and soon discovered that before these people became crazy, they all ate fish bought from a hawker.
And that vendor was the one where he sold the mutated fish.
So this is the clue?
Liu Ni looked thoughtful, and he quickly continued to explore, trying to find the mysterious maritime city, but none of those people could give a specific location.
In the next few days, after seeing that nothing could be done, Liu Ni made a bold move——
That is eating a contaminated fish yourself.
Maybe this is the clue of the game. Only by eating this kind of fish can you truly find the city in the fantasy world and start the next plot of the game?
So, when he bit the bullet and ate the contaminated fish by making soup, he soon fell into a cutscene.
It's like the protagonist's dream. In the cutscene, he seems to have come to a sticky, dark, and cold city. This city has countless piles of rocks. It is not so much a city as it is a pile of monsters. nest.
In this lair, he walked aimlessly, but the deeper he went, the more he could hear a mysterious voice.
That voice was like the murmur of an animal on the verge of death, or the whisper of consciousness when its consciousness diverges. It was somewhat like human language, but completely different. But the strange thing was that the more he listened, the more Liu Ni became... clear...
That seems to be a sentence like this: [In the eternal mansion R'lyeh, the sleeping Cthulhu awaits you in your dream]
This voice did not seem to belong to the hallucination in the dream. Just when Liu Ni was a little confused, his vision suddenly went dark and he was ejected from the brain-computer interface.
"What happened?"
Liu Ni, who had a dark circle under his eyes, was a little angry and impatient. He subconsciously wanted to activate the Metaverse Chamber again, but a message suddenly came from the Metaverse Chamber, indicating that the player had been using the Metaverse Chamber for 24 hours continuously, triggering the defense. Due to the addictive mechanism, the Metaverse Warehouse will not be available for the next 8 hours.
Liu Ni was suddenly dumbfounded by this explanation.
In fact, in this era, there are not many similar merchant overlord clauses, so Liu Ni was not too surprised. What he didn't expect was that this company even considered preventing addiction.
This is rare to see in other games. Other games want players to be immersed in the game for 72 hours without quitting for a moment.
Now that I think about it, this Metaverse is indeed very conscientious.
After seeing that he could no longer continue the game for the next eight hours, Liu Ni had no choice but to leave the Metaverse Chamber. However, what he didn't expect was that the moment he climbed out of the chamber, he felt dizzy and realized that he had not been there for a long time. After resting, he only had one meal of egg fried rice, but didn't even drink a sip of water.
I didn't feel it when I was lying in the Yuan Universe warehouse before. Once I stood up, I instantly felt how weak I was.
So, Liu Ni didn't worry about anything else. He ate a nutrition bar as quickly as possible, drank a large bowl of water, and then lay down on the bed to rest.
Within a few seconds, he fell into a deep sleep.
In the next few days, Liu Ni was completely immersed in this game. He seemed to have truly become a fisherman living in the 19th century, experiencing the customs and customs of the past.
Moreover, he discovered that as he ate more and more contaminated fish, a strange energy was gradually produced in his body. This energy allowed him to gradually approach the cold, damp but difficult-to-reach place in the illusion. In this famous city, the whisper is getting clearer and clearer.
But as a price, the protagonist's mind becomes more and more confused. For example, he sees that the residents of the town are beginning to show signs of being polluted. Tentacles gradually appear on the bodies of some residents, and fins grow on their heads. , but they knew nothing about it.
Another example is that the moon turns red at night, and when I am driving a ship, I can see the phantom of sea monsters approaching, etc.
In the end, even Liu Ni himself couldn't tell whether this was a problem with the protagonist or a problem with the world.
And for some reason, the game plot also came to a standstill, and there was no clue to the next level.
So Liu Ni simply checked on the Internet to see if there were any guides about this game, and by the way, he tried out the Internet engine of the Metaverse Warehouse.
Similar to how he uses optical brain chips and other Internet devices, the Internet engine that comes with the Yuan Universe Warehouse is actually very simple and can be controlled by brain waves. The only difference is that the web page will appear directly in his mind. With just a thought, you can swim in the ocean of the Internet.
He first looked for news related to the Yuan Universe, and sure enough he found that Tiandao Network Technology had created an official website, and the official website also had its own official forum, where all players could discuss it.
At this time, there were already tens of thousands of posts in the official forum, most of which were suggestions and inquiries about that copy.
[Excuse me, is Call of Cthulhu a horror dungeon? Why do I feel more and more creepy the more I play it? 】
[I don’t like horror dungeons very much. Can you set up an online game dungeon for me? I want to upgrade to fight monsters]
[Find out the krypton gold system. As a rich man, without the krypton gold system, what is the difference between me and ordinary people? 】
[Please give me a dungeon guide. I am currently stuck on fishing. I have played the fishing game for dozens of hours...]
After seeing the post asking for tips, Liu Ni's eyes suddenly lit up. He clicked on the post, but was disappointed to find that no one provided any valuable information.
So he simply wrote down the clues he had with the idea of doing something good.
[I am currently playing a plot in which the protagonist has acquired a special ability. If you want to advance the plot, it is best to go to unmarked sea areas to catch those polluted fish, the kind with tentacles growing all over the body. You have to sell this kind of fish to the town, so that there will be a lot of crazy town residents in the town. 】
[Then you have to try eating this kind of fish a few times. In fact, there is nothing to worry about. The taste of this kind of fish is fresher than ordinary fish. Although you may feel a little uncomfortable at first, you will find this kind of contaminated fish after eating it a few times. The fish tastes better. 】
[After eating the fish, you will see a fantasy world. You can hear a whisper in the fantasy world. Although you don’t know what is on the other side, the other party will gradually guide you to a location. After I find it, I will probably be able to complete the level...]
Liu Ni wrote down his game experience eloquently, and soon received the thanks from the poster, [Wow, this is a real boss! 】
In addition, there are also other people's replies, "What kind of ruthless person is this? Do you even dare to eat that kind of fish? I want to vomit just looking at it!" 】
[What he said is right. Only by eating the mutated fish can you unlock the next clue. Then you will gain an ability called psionic power. You can hear a call from the dark, and then according to that The sound came to that city and released a sea monster called Cthulhu, and then the whole world would be destroyed by this monster. I have passed the level]
[What, the ending of this game is the destruction of the whole world, and is it because of the protagonist? 】
[I'm afraid, yes, this game is a horror game after all, but the person above got it wrong. I think all this is the protagonist's hallucination. That kind of fish should be produced by nuclear pollution. After eating it, your brain will He was destroyed and became unconscious, so the rest are all the protagonist’s imagination]
Liu Ni read these netizens' replies with great interest, and almost understood the whole story of the game.
To put it simply, there is a sea monster imprisoned in this sea area. Although this sea monster is imprisoned, it can still let its power flow out. The power flowing out of the sea monster pollutes the nearby fish, and the closer it gets to the imprisoned fish. The more serious the pollution, the more serious the location.
At the same time, many fishermen died in the entire town because of this. After eating those mutated fish, these fishermen would be contaminated by sea monsters and gradually die of madness, even the protagonist's uncle.
It's just that human pollution is mostly spiritual. After eating polluted fish, a kind of spiritual power can be formed. At the same time, this power can sense the sea monster, allowing the protagonist to find the location where the sea monster is imprisoned, and finally save the sea monster. Release it.
And the name of this sea monster is Cthulhu.
However, according to the netizen who cleared the game, sea monsters can even destroy the entire world? At this level, it can no longer be called a sea monster. It should be closer to being called an evil god.
This is a relatively new game...
Liu Ni savored it silently. In fact, the game plot alone can only be said to be average, but the protagonist's journey as he is gradually contaminated is well done, but this is mainly due to the immersive nature of virtual reality.
So after getting the clearance guide, Liu Ni continued to return to the game.
At this time, on the other side, the Yuan Universe Warehouse was also completely popular on the market.
Whether it’s the advantage of being able to buy in installments, the immersive somatosensory system inside, or the first copy, it all makes the eyes of otakus and otakus born in this era shine, especially those who just eat and wait to die. Ordinary citizens, for them, this game feels like it was tailor-made for them.
Originally, the first batch of Metaverse Warehouse had one million units, but it took three days to sell them all. The second batch of Metaverse Warehouse was the day the Metaverse game officially launched, and it took only one day for all the one million units to be sold. , and the third batch of NT$1 million space warehouses were sold out in three seconds. Even so, the supply was simply in short supply.
So Chen's father had no choice but to order the company to get up and running. At the same time, he also wanted to outsource the assembly business of the Yuanyuan warehouse, but was stopped by Chen Shibo.
Just kidding, the reason why Chen Shibo developed the Metaverse game was not only to make money, but the most important thing is that each Metaverse warehouse is equipped with a hidden psychic black box. This device is hidden among the countless precision equipment in the Metaverse warehouse. , nothing can be found even if it is opened, but this psychic black box is a device that can lead the user's consciousness into the imaginary number space at critical times.
This device is all produced in the underground experimental base, so the Metaverse Warehouse without this device is worthless. Even if the market is out of stock, Chen Strobe is unwilling to outsource the business of the Metaverse Warehouse.
However, even if the production capacity limited the launch of the Yuan Space Warehouse and its market share, the Chen family still made a huge profit in this sale. The company's stock rose almost in a straight line, and within a few days, it completely reached the T2 level. limit.
In other words, as long as it does not shrink again, Tiandao Network Technology will be a T2-level company from now on, and the Chen family will also be promoted to a T2-level family power.
"Is it really okay?"
At this time, in the assembly factory of the Yuan Universe Warehouse, Father Chen looked worried but also excited at the busy workers below, "If our production capacity cannot keep up, will other companies seize the market?" ?”
"Now it's too late to seize it."
Chen Shibo stood aside and said calmly, "If there is a company that seizes the market with us when we launch our first advertising, I'm afraid there will be a chance, such as the Seven Star Group. But now, the Seven Star Group's virtual universe has been Our acquisition, the biggest crisis has become our nourishment, now the entire market only recognizes our Tiandao Network Technology, it will not be so easy for other companies to get a piece of the pie."
"Besides, our Metaverse Warehouse has already been outpriced. With the same price and quality, our Metaverse Warehouse is the most affordable. Even if T0 wants to intervene, I'm afraid they won't be able to take away our current share. After all, From the beginning, our target was not the high-end market, but the market of ordinary citizens."
After hearing Chen Shibo's explanation, Chen's father relaxed a little.
During this period of time, Father Chen has been immersed in the explosion of the Yuan Universe Warehouse, but at the same time he is a little worried. After all, the production capacity is insufficient and can only produce one million units per week. Now that the scale has been increased, it is only One million units in three days. At this rate, it can only produce 10 million units in a month, which is far from reaching market saturation.
However, after hearing Chen Shibo's analysis, Chen's father reluctantly suppressed the worries in his heart. Now the deal is done, and everything else will be left to time.
