Chapter 161 Oh no, we're lost!

Then, the man of destiny placed his hand next to his ear.

The next moment, accompanied by flashes of golden light, a rough and simple-looking iron rod appeared in the hands of the chosen one.

Immediately afterwards, Su Tao saw the character's attribute bar appear on the computer screen, which meant she could start operating.

The two burly wolf demons were rushing towards the chosen one.

"Why is it a fight right from the start?"

Su Tao was startled at first, and hurriedly put her hands on the keyboard.

Fortunately, she was already familiar with "Black Myth: Wukong" when she first controlled Sun Wukong to fight Erlang Shen one-on-one.

The combat system is so advanced that before the brain can even process it, the hands are already operating it.

Seeing that the wolf demons had reached her and were about to bring down their large swords, Su Tao controlled her chosen one to dodge the combined attack of the two wolf demons.

Then, he turned around, swung his staff, and unleashed a smooth combo, quickly emptying the health bars of both wolf demons.

From the perspective of the viewers in the live stream.

Su Tao's hands quickly pressed several keys on the keyboard, and then the Chosen One on the screen swiftly eliminated the two ferocious-looking wolf demons. Even the iron rod in her hand left several afterimages, showing its astonishing power.

"I didn't expect that these two wolf demons, which looked scary, actually had no strength at all and were just ordinary minions."

Su Tao patted her heaving chest, a hint of lingering fear still on her face.

Her words immediately caught the attention of the viewers in the live stream, who then flooded the chat with comments.

"I never expected Sister Su to be so skilled; she's really been hiding her talent!"

"Hehe, Sister Su only made a slight move, but it still surprised all the viewers in the live stream."

"This—this isn't the Su Su I know! Su Su should have been beaten to a pulp by those two wolf demons!"

The live stream chat was flooded with comments, keeping Su Tao busy, so she simply stopped paying attention to them and continued playing the game.

After killing the two wolf demons, several messages immediately popped up on the right side of the screen.

These are the updates to the Shadow God Map and the drops of Spirit Essence and Cotton Yarn after defeating the Wolf Demon.

"What is spiritual essence?"

Su Tao tried to open the character panel, but after searching carefully, she still couldn't find the use of spiritual essence.

"Perhaps it's something like experience or currency."

A comment floated across the screen and was precisely caught by Su Tao.

Su Tao accepted this explanation and nodded in agreement.

Then, instead of dwelling on these details, she guided the chosen one along the road to the next location.

"Huh? There doesn't seem to be a real map in the game. Is it because it's a test version?"

She walked and stopped frequently, picking herbs whenever she found them by the roadside. So when she suddenly came to her senses, she realized she seemed to be lost.

"Brothers, does anyone remember the route we just took? Can you take me back to where we started and we can go through it again?"

Looking at the computer screen, Su Tao saw that the chosen one, under her control, was standing in front of an insurmountable cliff. She couldn't help but send a distress signal to the viewers in the live stream.

However, the viewers in the live stream did not respond to Su Tao's plea for help, but instead made sarcastic remarks in the chat.

"Haha, I didn't expect that Sister Su Su is not only terrible with directions in real life, but now she's also terrible with directions in the game."

"Sister Su, do this first, then that, and finally this again, and you'll be able to return to the starting point."

"If all else fails, we might as well reopen it."

"Don't even mention Sister Su, I can't remember the routes in the game either. It's mainly because the surrounding scenery is too similar. I guess most people who play for the first time can't remember the routes."

"Maybe that's how StarCard was designed, removing the map to let players explore on their own, since it can be considered a semi-open world game."

The viewers in the live stream ignored Su Tao's plea for help and instead started investigating why Xingka didn't pretend to be a map system in "Black Myth Wukong".

This is just the initial level, yet it can already make players get lost due to similar scenery. As the map is gradually explored and expanded, it would indeed be a considerable task for players to memorize every route.

Fortunately, at this moment, a viewer in the live stream finally stepped forward and guided Su Tao step by step back to the spawn point on the map, and let Su Tao choose the other direction of the fork in the road, and take the correct path.

"Thank you so much—uh—thank you for the help from StarCard."

After defeating several small monsters encountered along the way, Su Tao finally saw a different scene: a dilapidated-looking temple.

Only then did Su Tao have a moment to look at the live stream chat and thank the viewer who guided her back on track.

However, when Su Tao saw the name of the netizen, her face immediately turned red.

"Haha, I didn't expect that Sister Su's getting lost would be caught by the official Star Card team."

"Sister Su Su has really embarrassed herself. As an official contracted streamer of Xingka, she actually needs Xingka to tell her which path to take."

"Since the official Star Card team is also in the live stream, I'll just ask directly: will a mini-map system be added after the official version of 'Black Myth: Wukong' is released?"

"That's right. Even without a minimap, you can add a large map that can be opened with a button, so that players know where they are."

Seeing a group of people in the live stream chat concerned about the map, Su Tao, a seasoned directionally challenged person, stood on the side of the players this time.

"That's right, StarCard official, could you please add a map system after the official version of the game is released? That would be more friendly to players like me who have no sense of direction."

In Hangzhou, inside the Qiantang Mountain and Water Villa, Chen Dong sat on the balcony outside the master bedroom, enjoying the river breeze, watching Su Tao point out some shortcomings of "Black Myth: Wukong" in the live broadcast room.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Dong started typing on his phone's keyboard.

"Regarding the map issue, we will discuss it together after the closed beta ends. The star cards will definitely meet the needs of most players, and we will strive to take the game experience of Black Myth: Wukong to the next level."

To be honest, if he hadn't watched Su Tao's live stream today, Chen Dong would have completely forgotten about adding a map system to "Black Myth: Wukong".

He got lost several times when he was playing this game.

If a game wants to truly become a hit and go viral, appropriately reducing the learning curve is a necessary step.
