Gu Fei, who had just left, didn't care about the guild matter at all. At this time, he was hurrying towards the fountain square in the center of Cloud City. He had arranged to meet someone there.
From afar, Gu Fei could already see Hongchen Yixiao, who was smiling and waving at him.
"Why are you looking for me?" Seeing Gu Fei walk over, Hongchen Yixiao immediately got straight to the point.
"There's something I want to ask you." Gu Fei said.
Hongchen Yixiao smiled: "I'm a self-disciplined gamer. I won't necessarily tell you everything you ask."
"If you can say it, then say it. If you can't say it, then don't say it!" Gu Fei was straightforward.
"Okay, go ahead."
Gu Fei took out "Eddy's Coat of Arms" from his chest pocket. Hongchen Yixiao only casually glanced at it. Suddenly, his eyes widened. Gu Fei didn't exist in front of him anymore. All he could see was the coat of arms slowly swaying in front of his eyes. It was like a firefly in the dark night, so bright and so outstanding.
"Where did this come from!" Hongchen Yixiao suddenly came back to his senses. He grabbed Gu Fei's hand and pulled the coat of arms in front of his eyes to look at it.
After Gu Fei told him the story, Hongchen Yixiao was petrified.
"Last night, I looked it up on the official website. There was no information about this coat of arms, so I wanted to ask you. If you can say it, then say it. If you can't, then forget it." Gu Fei said.
Hongchen Yixiao raised his hand and pinched his face. While confirming that this wasn't a dream, he made his petrified expression come back to life. After taking two deep breaths, he said: "This is a quest."
"I know … …" Gu Fei said.
"Compared to other normal quests, this quest is a bit unique. We call it a chain quest." Hongchen Yixiao said.
"Quest chain?" Gu Fei suddenly understood. This term was mentioned on the website. Compared to normal missions, it was more complicated and had a strong randomness.
There was a reason for the name "Chain of Quests". If an ordinary mission was viewed as a point, then when several points were strung together to form a line, it would form a mission chain. There were countless points like this in the game. Perhaps an ordinary quest on an ordinary street could become a key link in the chain of quests.
This was how the Quest Chain was casually extracted from these countless points by the System, and then arranged and combined them freely. Then, he would choose a suitable storyline from the game's huge story library and attach it to it. Then, he would calculate the difficulty of each segment and give a suitable reward. When a player completed a chain of quests, the system would regroup and arrange a new chain of quests. The total number of missions in the game would never change, but the content would always change. The system randomly generated the exact same quest chain twice? The probability wasn't zero, but it was so small that it was negligible.
With this kind of setup, it wasn't hard to trigger a chain of quests because the conditions for triggering it weren't that strange or outrageous. But whether or not the chain could be completed after it was triggered depended on the player's luck. Because the points that formed the chain of quests were randomly arranged, it was possible that the first step was very simple like buying something or delivering a letter, and the second step was an extremely difficult battle … … Players could trigger the chain of quests at level 0, but they had to reach a high level to proceed to the second step. This possibility was quite high.
As for the quest chain that Gu Fei had triggered, the conditions for triggering it weren't that difficult. In the later stages of the game, this was a normal quest that could be easily received and completed: Trapped Eddie.
But there was one point that had to be emphasized: the later stages of the game.
With the current standards of the players, a recent example: Han Family Young Master, Sword Demon, and a bunch of legendary online gaming experts wanted to kill Suo Tu. The method they came up with was to trap him in a small black room and torture him to death. However, using this method, the first person to be tortured to death wouldn't be Suo Tu. Instead, it would be Eddie, who was in the same room as Suo Tu.
Seeing Eddie's dead body wouldn't allow the player to receive this quest.
There were two prerequisites for Eddie to live and hear his last words.
First, Suo Tu had to feel safe so that he wouldn't kill Eddie due to his sense of danger.
Second, Eddie had to feel safe so that he could leave his funeral arrangements with peace of mind.
To achieve these two conditions, the player only had one choice: to fight and kill Suo Tu alone.
Suo Tu wouldn't feel too much danger as long as he came alone. Only by killing Suo Tu would Eddie be able to leave his funeral arrangements with peace of mind. If it was a normal quest, Eddie would only leave his last words. Coincidentally, Gu Fei had activated a chain quest, so Eddie's last words included the contents of the quest. Regardless, this quest only belonged to high-level and skilled players. Only players of this level had the strength to challenge it alone.
Hongchen Yixiao knew a little about Gu Fei's skills, but when he heard that Gu Fei had accomplished such a feat, he couldn't help but be shocked. He had already considered the damage that people like Gu Fei would cause to the game's balance. However, he only thought that they would have the upper hand in a battle between players. He didn't expect that even the system BOSS in the game would be so weak.
Gu Fei was still talking, but Hongchen Yixiao had already turned a deaf ear. As one of the core planners of the game, he had already subconsciously considered whether there was a need to restrict these types of players in order to maintain the balance of the game.
"Hey! Hey! "Gu Fei's call brought Hongchen Yixiao back from his reverie.
"What are you thinking about?" Gu Fei was surprised. "I'm asking you, why isn't there a description of this quest on the website?"
"Oh …" Hongchen Yixiao came back to his senses. "The chain quest is randomly generated, so it's impossible for the website to introduce the content of the quest. Players have to figure it out themselves."
"Then can you give me a hint?" Gu Fei asked.
Hongchen Yixiao smiled shyly. "I'm a self-disciplined gamer."
"Alright, I got it!" Gu Fei said without hesitation. "Then I'll figure it out myself! Let's go! "
"Take care!" Hongchen Yixiao waved his hand.
"Goodbye!" Gu Fei turned around and left.
After ten minutes of walking, Gu Fei arrived at the place where he trained. Due to the huge increase in experience from level 30 onwards, Gu Fei didn't know how many days he would have to stay there. Compared to Gu Fei, most players didn't choose to level up by killing monsters. There were many quests in the game, and the experience reward was quite generous. Although it wasn't as efficient as killing monsters to level up, it wasn't boring. Running errands, chatting, and occasionally fighting a few battles, why not?
But for Gu Fei, killing monsters was using Kung Fu, and this alone was enough to make him happy. Boring? If he thought Kung Fu was boring, would Gu Fei have trained diligently for more than twenty years?
Moreover, ever since he started playing online games, Gu Fei found that his Kung Fu had improved.
Why? It was because of what the Sword Demon regarded as the ultimate skill.
There were so many real combat opponents to spar with, and more importantly, he could attack the opponent's vital points without hesitation until he killed them. This was unprecedented in Gu Fei's many years of practicing Kung Fu.
In reality, when he sparred with others, he had to emphasize not going too far. With so many worries, each move would be somewhat out of form. Gu Fei understood, but he couldn't do anything about it. Life wasn't like the pugilistic world in wuxia novels. Those days of licking blood on the edge of a knife could make up for what he lacked in this area. Now, online games had helped him fill in this gap. Although it was a fly in the ointment that his opponents couldn't counter his moves, he didn't have to worry when he attacked.
When he got close to the spawn point, Gu Fei bent down, loosened his muscles, drew his sword, and rushed forward.
Relaxed, it really was a lot easier.
Gu Fei knew that this was all because of "Eddie's Emblem." How could his strength not increase by leaps and bounds with the addition of 30 attribute points? The monsters surrounding Gu Fei were cut down by Gu Fei at an even faster speed. He already felt that this spawn point didn't seem to be able to completely satisfy his needs. Perhaps it was time to explore more advanced areas.
At that moment, not far from Gu Fei, there was a pair of eyes watching him.
Hongchen Yixiao. After Gu Fei left, he secretly followed behind. His goal was to see Gu Fei's strength.
"So fast! All Agility points … "Hongchen Yixiao said in his heart. Compared to people like Sword Demon who had a lot of experience in online games, as a high-level game producer, he clearly had an incomparable advantage. Sword Demon could see that Gu Fei had added Agility, but Hongchen Yixiao could even see exactly how many Agility points Gu Fei had added. The difference wouldn't be more than five points.
"Strength too … but this should be the effect of Eddie's Emblem."
"Attack power …" Hongchen Yixiao silently calculated Gu Fei's equipment, the attack power realized by his character points, as well as the NPC's defense and HP. He sucked in a breath of cold air. "Every move is the highest attack power … this … this is too crazy! Even if we designed NPCs, we wouldn't dare to make the data so stable! This guy … "The muscles on Hongchen Yixiao's face twitched a few times. He saw a fact.
For Gu Fei, he was equivalent to a character who already had a full set of skills. This was his Kung Fu. In the game's words, this skill of his was quite high at the beginning. Moreover, no one knew if this skill of his also had an upper limit of Kung Fu proficiency. What was worse was that this guy's skill would also become stronger as the player increased their level and changed their equipment, just like in the game.
"Shouldn't we restrict such a character a little?" With this question in mind, Hongchen Yixiao ended his peeping, returned to the safe zone in the city, and went offline. As for Gu Fei, he just casually glanced at Hongchen Yixiao's departing figure.
