The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 430: Thank you for the big ship that Zhumeng gave us the reward!
The directors of Dream Building are carefully selected elites in the industry.

During every official live broadcast, we are extremely sensitive to the wonderful scenes and present them to the audience in a timely manner.

That is why the live broadcast camera is either locked on the grand scene or aimed at the star players who are showing off their prowess.

And no matter whether it is a big scene or an exciting battle, the best angle and the most comfortable distance are presented as much as possible, so that players can clearly see what is happening.

Strive to provide the best viewing experience for the audience.

But now, when the camera is forced to lock on an ordinary player - even a pure rookie player who is worse than the ordinary player, watching the game is naturally very different!

——Pang Yun is too ordinary. Even a small soldier or pirate can make him cry out in pain.

It's so difficult to save a person, and it takes a lot of effort to break down the door.

Even after smashing the door for a long time in vain, you still have to rely on other NPCs to help break it open.

When we encounter dangers that we cannot escape, we have to rely on the big guys to show up and rescue us.

But when everyone got excited when the big guys came out and started their grand performance, he ran away again!
The camera followed him again, and he only glanced back briefly when he felt safe.

With such a hasty look back, one can naturally only see a glimpse of the fierce battle scene.

The result is:

Although Pang Yun was involved in this major event, he did not participate in the mission. Instead, he was forced to escape by the pressure of the event.

When those "heroes" with all their might appeared, he could only pass by them and give them a quick glance.

Like most disaster-affected NPCs, he is completely powerless in the face of large-scale disasters.

Even when the "savior" appears, he may be accidentally injured by the aftermath of the battle.

……

Most of the audience have a strong mentality.

I am not used to this "weak perspective".

So I had been urging the director to cut the shot.

But as they watched, everyone became more and more absorbed in it——

Examine major events from the perspective of "ordinary residents of the sprawling city", re-experience the NPC's response to crises, and feel their views on players...

These are things that no one has ever paid attention to before.

and--

These NPCs are so lifelike!
If we hadn't seen Pang Yun and the NPCs helping each other and struggling to survive under the dual threats of floods and pirates, we really wouldn't have noticed:

All NPCs have deviated from their original trajectory!

No matter what their original range of activities and trajectories were, they naturally began to flee after the flood poured down.

When threatened by pirates, some fled in terror, some were so frightened that their legs went limp and they could not move, and some fought back bravely...

In short, everyone responded appropriately.

Even the young girl NPC that Pang Yun rescued at the beginning followed him running left and right, almost crossing half of the Sprawling City!
If they were all players, living people, then this would be normal.

But these are all NPCs, which is amazing!
They will even rescue other affected NPCs while running, encourage each other, and even thank the players who suddenly appear to intercept the pirates.

This large amount of details makes each NPC no longer a background board on the street, but makes them flesh and blood.

The comments also changed from urging the director to cut the show quickly to praising Zhumeng:
“It’s worthy of being the Dream Building Live Broadcast, there are always new ideas!”

"Yeah, and the NPC's actions are so natural! All our friends should learn from them!!"

"It's a waste of time! Thousands of NPCs are performing random actions at the same time, and they still have to make sure it's reasonable... Do you know how difficult this is? The programmers must have lost a lot of hair!"

"I bet that only Dreaming can do such an outrageous thing!"

"Dream Building won't use the [Mind Cube] on all NPCs, right?"

"It shouldn't be that serious, but there are definitely new technological advances in NPC intelligence!"

"So...Zhumeng chose to broadcast from Pang Yun's perspective just to show off its muscles and brag about how smart its NPCs are?"

"Very likely! Too strong!"

……

The audience discussed while watching, and finally successfully concluded:
The camera is locked on Pang Yun, just to show off the company's new achievements in NPC intelligence in this subtle but vivid way!
The subsequent live broadcast content also seemed to prove this point -

Pang Yun fled along the way blending into the NPC team.

In order to gain “event points” for rescuing NPCs, other players continue to appear around them and provide them with much-needed help.

At first, this helped mainly in intercepting pirates that suddenly appeared.

But soon, the water on the street rose higher and higher, flooding over the thighs, waist, chest...

Until the ground floor buildings were completely submerged by floodwaters.

The main assistance became disaster relief.

Various large buckets, wooden doors, and bathtubs were temporarily converted into small boats and sent over for them to ride.

When the water reached a height of two stories, rubber boats and motorboats were also found.

Players drove motorboats, shuttling between flooded buildings, rescuing NPCs who were hiding from floods in low-rise buildings - as well as some helpless players.

It was at this time that Pang Yun was sent directly to the rooftop of a 30-story building on Youkexin Avenue.

From the players' perspective, the interior space of the Sky Arena is almost infinite.

But for NPCs, the space was actually quite limited, and it was soon filled with NPCs fleeing from all directions. Everyone had to find another place to stay.

After Pang Yun settled down, he was still feeling frightened.

Sitting on the edge of the rooftop, I stared blankly at the city flooded by the flood.

The director gave him a close-up of his face and finally turned the camera to other players.
-
Different from Pang Yun’s miserable escape.

By the time the water had flooded to a four-story high building, other players had already formed teams and started stealing ships from the pirates!

A hundred-meter-long sailing warship can accommodate hundreds of NPCs.

This is faster than rescuing people by raft or kayak!

You can get one or two thousand points for transporting one ship.

Although they have to be shared with other crew members, it is much faster than rescuing them one by one.

As for how to grab it?
Of course it’s a boarding battle!

The pirates on the deck suddenly heard the crisp sound of glass breaking above their heads.

The moment I looked up, I saw a group of people breaking out of the windows of the buildings on both sides!

They fell onto the deck like dumplings.

Where had they ever seen such an outrageous boarding battle?
What's even more outrageous is that when they drew their swords and rushed forward, the opponents either began to summon dragons or appeared in glittering armor.

The weapon in his hand is not only huge, but also burning with blazing flames - or condensed with layers of ice.

It looks terrifying!
The footsteps of the charge suddenly froze in place.

But they froze, but the opposing players didn’t!
Players rushed over waving broadswords, katana, double swords... and other exaggerated special effects weapons!

——The cool weapons obtained from fighting the Ice Dragon and the Wild Hunt time and time again finally found their place of use!
When the pirates saw the players' momentum, they immediately became intimidated.

When the real fight starts, the small scimitar against the giant weapon is even more horrific.

A huge sword burning with flames was coming down, and there was no point in blocking it - both the sword and the person would be knocked over by the sword!
Some players with extraordinary talents and high favorability with Ciri even mastered a special swordsmanship.

They rushed into the middle of the large group of pirates, shouting "Blade Storm!"

Then he spun the sword rapidly like an electric fan, causing waves of blood among the pirates!
Under such a wild offensive, one pirate ship after another quickly fell and was controlled by the player team.

Later on, the player team even began to capture pirates and let them drive their ships to hunt other pirate ships!

——It is not easy to drive a sailing warship. Even among the internal test players, not many of them can do it.

Interested players also began to operate artillery and learn the necessary skills of "Sailing in the Blue Sea" in advance.

The electronic advertising screen was still spewing out seawater, "spitting out" pirate ships.

But the sailing warships that the players had snatched had already surrounded this exit from far away.

Every time a new pirate ship appears, the players' warships will rush forward and quickly snatch it away.

There are more and more large ships in the hands of players, and the efficiency of rescuing NPCs from low-rise buildings is constantly increasing!

The high-rise buildings in the sprawling city are crowded with people.

But players are still not satisfied.

They surrounded the exit not far away and hunted pirate ships one after another.

Because of the long time online, each player team began to take turns to rest.

At this time, the employees of the Mansheng Metropolis Operations Team began to feel that something was wrong——

How come these players don't have the idea of ​​blocking the water outlet? ?
Although it is not so easy to let players block it, but don’t you want to try it? ?
……

The players certainly don't want to.

Even the powerful star players are not in a hurry at all.

the reason is simple--

The heroic sniper stood on the deck of the pirate ship he had robbed and said happily:
"The boats on the East Coast are so small and so expensive! Anyone who buys them is crazy!"

"It's rare that DreamZhu is so generous and gives us a boat for free, so we will accept it without hesitation!"

"I won't mention more."

"One ship per person!"

The players in the team cheered:
"Brilliant!"

"Great!"

"One ship per person!"

……

On the decks of other sailing ships, each player team had similar ideas.

A 15-meter-long cruise ship costs 8000 credit points to rent for a day!
If you want to buy it, it will undoubtedly be sky-high priced!

But now?

Beautiful sailing warships that are often hundreds of meters long...

Free delivery! ! !
How could players miss this great opportunity to get a big ship for free? !

How can event points be as fun as a big ship?

You must get it for free!
