Chapter 394: A carnival exclusive to players
"roar--"
Deafening roars, accompanied by explosions, echoed in the virtual cinema.
Beyond all audiences' expectations.
The process of obtaining the first key was very difficult.
Countless vehicles were involved in traffic accidents or were intercepted by Tyrannosaurus Rex and giant gorillas on the road, leading to a chaotic and desperate chase in the city.
“Isn’t this too difficult?”
"With these two big guys blocking the road, we can't get through at all."
"Don't tell me this gorilla is going to be in the game."
"But the scene was very exciting."
“Is this gameplay going to be added to Need for Speed?”
The audience talked a lot and marveled at the exciting racing scenes before their eyes.
It is entirely conceivable that if this kind of escape gameplay is added to a racing game, especially a virtual one, it will definitely be very lively.
It's just a bit too difficult.
As expected.
They just finished talking.
The protagonist, who was almost reaching the finish line, was stopped. The huge body directly blocked the road to the finish line, forcing him to stop.
At the same time, he also rescued a female player.
He was almost swallowed by the gorilla.
"Oh, the heroine appears."
"It's too difficult. It's impossible to get through it."
"I wonder if the Easter eggs in the prehistoric times will be this difficult."
"Or is that destination just a cover?"
The audience is a little worried. If Honghuang also uses this method to place Easter eggs, it is estimated that no one will be able to pass the level and get the key in a short period of time.
Or say.
Would Honghuang really announce the Easter egg levels so easily?
With strong curiosity, they continued to watch.
Don't say.
As a result, some viewers actually guessed it correctly.
After failing the challenge, the male protagonist went to the library again to collect the "life images" of the boss Honghuang, and finally discovered a neglected conversation.
【Why can't we go back to the past? 】
[Even just once, back up quickly, back up at full speed, with the accelerator pedal pressed to the floor.]
"Damn! I knew there would be a trap!"
The audience couldn't stand it anymore and suddenly realized that Honghuang was not a serious company and could not be judged with normal thinking.
"So, Hong Huang is trying to hint to us that their Easter eggs also need to be solved using this kind of reverse thinking?"
"I see. Brain teasers are my specialty."
"Just wait and see, I'll get three keys a day and inherit Boss Honghuang's legacy!"
"What about the inheritance? Are you already claiming your father before the game even starts?"
"Haha, as long as he dares to recognize me, I will call him dad more diligently than anyone else."
As the big boss of the prehistoric world, don’t just call me dad, you can even call me grandpa!
Become a rich second generation.
Not shabby.
While they were discussing.
The plot has indeed taken a new turn.
The male protagonist who has mastered the trick to pass the level participates in the competition again. At the beginning, he steps on the accelerator to the bottom and backs away. Surprisingly, a secret passage leading to the underground really appears.
He traveled unimpeded all the way, crossing the city underground, then rushed out of the ground before the end, drove into a manor, and got the first Easter egg key.
“There really is a shortcut!”
"I said there must be something fishy going on."
No one was surprised by this result.
Instead, I felt a sense of secret joy at having guessed what Hong Huang was thinking.
This battle of wits and courage.
In the end, they won.
"I have understood and cracked Honghuang's little trick. The remaining two keys can be easily obtained." A player said confidently.
The others booed and looked back at the movie screen.
At this time, the male protagonist has become a celebrity in the game because he was the first to crack the Easter egg.
The relationship between him and the heroine who was rescued before is getting better and better. They work together in the game to collect clues about the second key.
Finally, the situation continued to heat up, and they were preparing to go on a date to a planet that had been converted into a dance hall and nightclub, but they were strongly advised against it by their friends.
【Have you ever thought that she is using you? 】
[Look at what you are doing? You are madly infatuated with a girl you met online. She is invading your heart and trying to disturb your thoughts! ]
[You must be very careful when making friends in the prehistoric world. She might be a man. Man, she! She might be a 300-pound otaku who lives in his mother's basement in the suburbs. Her name is Dagen. Think about it.]
audience:???
“I feel like I’ve been implicated.”
"Haha, the current state of online dating."
"What nonsense are you talking about."
"Is this for us to hear?"
"It turns out that only men understand men best."
The sudden implication made the audience burst into laughter and looked around in the crowd.
This situation is not uncommon in games.
Even in the virtual world, there are many players who use characters of the opposite sex as their image, and when they use a voice changer to shout "brother", their voices sound so sweet.
If they encounter such a thing, young people who are inexperienced in the ways of the world might really fall into the trap.
Then make an appointment to take a look.
A group of 300-pound big men who pick their toes.
Being beaten up was the least of my worries. I was just afraid of waking up in the freezer with a freshly stitched wound on my waist.
Or find yourself abroad, in northern Myanmar…
In order not to let them be fooled.
Honghuang really put a lot of effort into it.
However.
After hearing his friend's advice, the male protagonist finally went to the appointment, and something really happened afterwards.
In order to seize the legacy left by Hong Huang, an international company called 101 targets the male protagonist and wants to snatch the key from him.
In the end, even his real-life aunt was killed, so he had no choice but to flee to the rebel base and log into the game to look for the remaining two keys.
After going through numerous hardships and dangers, the group finally escaped the pursuit of Company 101 and successfully obtained the second key.
But after finding the clue to the third key, they were beaten to it by Company 101, who activated their magical tool and covered the location of the third key with a huge light curtain, leaving them no chance to enter.
In order to seek help, the male protagonist turned on the live broadcast on the entire network.
Standing in front of the light curtain, on the empty snowy ground, a speech began that made countless players think deeply.
[Citizens of the prehistoric world, I am the first player to win the key. ]
[I believe that you are all like me, coming to the wild world to escape the terrible real life and everything that brings troubles. ]
[Here, I found a meaning beyond myself, found my ambition, made a bunch of friends, and found true love. I'm sure you feel the same way.]
[But now, they have used a magic shield to monopolize the third level challenge, and want to occupy this world and destroy it, destroying this place that carries everyone's dreams. ]
[I need your strength, rise up and resist, overthrow their rule! For this world! ! ]
The sonorous and powerful words, as if spoken to the players in the movie, or to the audience watching the movie, immediately silenced many people.
Yes.
The reason why they like the virtual end.
It's not because of how advanced or fun it is.
Instead, they regard it as a haven to escape reality.
Even in this false world, wrapped in the game characters, they can regain themselves and find the meaning of their existence in this world.
Not like reality.
Always living under the mask of hypocrisy, facing all kinds of people and things you don’t want to face in order to survive.
You can say that.
The days after the emergence of Honghuang Virtual World are their happiest and most relaxing days, where they can vent to their heart's content in the virtual world.
It’s no longer like before when I didn’t even have a friend to play games with.
This is the real reason why they are addicted to the virtual world.
So when the male protagonist finished his speech, they all felt the same way, were deeply moved, and clenched their fists unconsciously.
As if in response to their mood.
Suddenly, dazzling white lights appeared on the originally empty snowfield.
The white light became more and more, and in a blink of an eye it illuminated the entire snowfield. Countless players logged into the game and came to support the protagonist.
[Dangerous Wanderer, start! ]
At this moment, there was a loud bang, and a giant mecha was transported over. It was the mecha from "Pacific Rim"!
This is not the end yet.
As the mecha landed.
More and more players appeared on the snow, forming a huge black army, and they launched an attack towards this side with deafening shouts.
Looking around, they are all characters from Honghuang’s game, film and television IPs, and other well-known games on the platform.
There are Easter eggs almost every second, which make the audience scream and exclaim.
"Dangerous wanderer, even this is available!"
"And over there, it seems like there's a couple traveling together?"
"Haha, I saw the middle-parted guy from Monster Hunter."
"Ah! My beloved Asuna!"
"That's also in the go-kart I've been playing lately!"
"The team has started, log in!"
The greatest joy of playing games is to share what you like.
Seeing their favorite characters appear on the stage, the audience is naturally excited. They look for familiar characters among the fighting armies of both sides as if they were looking for Easter eggs.
I can only say that Honghuang is really good at it.
This is definitely the most player-friendly CG movie they have ever seen. No wonder it is called a love letter to all players.
Yes.
They liked this gift very much.
Just like liking the characters in the game.
The constant shouts and the tight and rapid music gradually bring the movie to a climax, and the battle between the players and the 101 company is about to break out.
[I will attack in Gundam form! ]
At this moment, another partner of the male protagonist put on the device and logged into the game, transforming into a red and white mecha and falling from the sky.
In an instant, the virtual cinema was boiling again.
"Oh my gosh! Gundam!"
"Honghuang even got the copyright for Gundam!"
"Okay, okay, I'll blow your fucking mind just for this!"
“I love this movie so much!”
The Dangerous Wanderer and the arrival of Gundam made a group of mecha enthusiasts feel so excited that their scalps tingled.
Especially when watching it live on the virtual side, the scene was extremely shocking, and everyone screamed loudly and uncontrollably.
This is a movie tailor-made for all players!
No!
It should be called a carnival.
A carnival for all gamers!
Honghuang actually went to such lengths for the players that they specially produced a special effects blockbuster, making them feel valued instantly.
No need for publicity.
This movie quickly spread in various circles, attracting more and more gamers to watch it.
Half a day.
The number of moviegoers reached a terrifying 20 million!
