Pei Qian considered the various weapons.
If Pei Qian wanted to change the attributes of the weapons, he had to try his best to follow the basic attributes of the weapons. Furthermore, the changes had to be made to match the external characteristics of the weapons.
Otherwise, the game would be too crude.
Pei Qian's gaze swept across the existing weapons.
He had wanted to choose a single-handed sword, but after some thought, he realized that while a single-handed sword was useful, its attack power could not be adjusted too high. Furthermore, its attack range was too short and dangerous.
Finally, Pei Qian's gaze focused on the long weapons. He saw a relatively unpopular weapon, a Buddhist staff.
Pei Qian searched for the ID of this weapon and realized that it was originally an ordinary tool in a dilapidated temple.
After walking out of the novice village and heading towards a nearby town, this dilapidated temple was a scene outside of the town. There was a crazy old monk inside that could be considered a mini boss.
After defeating this crazy old monk, the monk would drop this Buddhist staff. There was also a treasure chest in the dilapidated temple that contained a broken Buddhist bead.
The Buddhist bead was a special tool in the early stages of the game. It could temporarily control monsters and could revive them after a certain period of time. It was considered an important tool in the early stages of the game.
However, the Buddhist staff's attributes were not very strong. It was obvious that it was designed to be an ordinary collection-type weapon in the early stages of the game.
This was very normal. There were at least ten weapons in the game. There would always be some that were useful and some that were not. It was difficult to achieve a perfect balance.
This Buddhist staff was one of those trash that was used to make up the numbers.
"I choose you!"
Pei Qian chose an unpopular weapon that had a weak presence and minimized the changes to the game. That way, it would not be easily discovered.
Pei Qian did not change the attributes of the existing tools. Instead, he created another tool and copied the original Buddhist staff's data. He then greatly increased the basic and upgraded attack attributes.
He then looked at the Buddhist staff's attack methods.
The attack methods were similar to what he had expected. The normal attack was a horizontal swing that was clumsy and slow. However, the jumping slash and flash slash were smashes that were much faster.
After that, Pei Qian had to arrange how to obtain this Buddhist staff.
Pei Qian did not intend to make it too complicated. If he wanted to create a new scene or a mission that was too complicated, he would have to customize it and have the entire project team work on it.
Thus, after some thought, Pei Qian decided to use the existing mechanism to hide this weapon.
According to the original settings, this broken temple was just a supplement to the town scene. Players could choose to fight it or not. The strength of the crazy old monk inside was between an Elite monster and a mini boss.
If it was defeated, it would drop this Buddhist staff. At the same time, a broken string of Buddhist beads could be obtained from the treasure chest as a quest item.
Pei Qian changed the old monk's settings slightly.
First, he weakened the old monk's overall combat power, turning him into a monster that was even weaker than a normal monster.
This change was reasonable in terms of the plot. After all, the old monk was so old and the mini boss's strength was not suitable. He should be old and weak.
Any player who could reach this point would have experienced the bloodbath of the novice villages and towns, so they would naturally be wary of such NPCs and would subconsciously attack them.
Of course, even if players didn't attack, the old monk would still be in a hostile state and would take the initiative to attack players.
If the player killed the old monk, then according to the original settings, they would obtain the normal Buddhist staff and prayer beads.
Because the Buddhist beads were very useful, and the Buddhist staff was a special weapon, most people would kill the old monk without realizing the other tricks.
Pei Qian planned to add a setting to the old monk. As long as players died six times in the hands of the old monk, the seventh time, the old monk would become a friendly NPC and would not take the initiative to attack players.
As for the setting, it was easy to explain. Because players repeatedly died, the old monk obtained a certain amount of soul and spirit from the players who died repeatedly. That was why he regained some rationality.
Of course, players could still attack him. If they killed him, they would still receive the same rewards as before.
However, if players spoke to the old monk now, the old monk would say a line. The gist of it was that the Age of Dharma was coming, and Buddhism was about to be destroyed. There was no way out, but the power of Buddha still remained. As long as the protagonist could re-enter the six realms of rebirth, he would be able to escape from the sea of suffering.
At that moment, the old monk's body flashed with Buddha's light. The prayer beads in the treasure chest and the old monk's staff would become a new weapon, 'Pudu', which was the new weapon that Pei Qian had replicated.
'Pudu' was not much different from an ordinary Buddhist staff. The only difference was that the tip of the staff had a shiny golden special effect, which was the Buddha's light.
With this weapon, players could not only increase their combat power, but they could also skip the Bridge of Helplessness, the Three-Life Stone, and other scenes from the Road to the Netherworld. They could then enter the six realms of rebirth and enter the six realms of rebirth in advance.
According to the game's settings, the six realms of rebirth and rebirth ending was a fake ending.
At the beginning of the game, there was an old man in the village. Players had to kill this old man before they could follow his soul to the Road to the Netherworld. However, through some clues and observations, such as the description of the dropped items, players could confirm that this old man was the player after reincarnation.
According to the settings, this old man's appearance in the second round would be the same as the player's appearance in the first round. His clothes, weapons, and so on would be the same. However, he would become skinny and haggard.
Therefore, if players used 'Pudu' to pass the game, the old man would be holding 'Pudu'. However, without the special effect, it would become an ordinary Buddhist staff.
On top of that, 'Pudu' could only be used to pass the six realms of rebirth and rebirth ending. If it was used to fight bosses in other endings, its output would decrease, and it would become the same as an ordinary weapon.
Moreover, this weapon could not be upgraded in the second round.
That was because Pei Qian's goal was to complete one of the endings as quickly as possible and complete the game. It was enough for this weapon to complete its historical mission.
Pei Qian was not a masochist. He did not want to play with other endings or play more than one round.
Pei Qian busied himself for the entire afternoon and finally completed these changes clumsily.
These changes were not complicated and were not difficult to make using the game editor. However, Pei Qian had not touched the game editor for a long time. He still spent a little more time.
After making the changes, Pei Qian did a simple check.
There was no need to check too carefully. If there were any bugs, someone else would definitely fix them for Boss Pei.
Pei Qian submitted all the changes and then looked for Li Yada.
"I've made some changes to the game's content. It won't affect the game much. Don't be too concerned and don't make a big deal out of it."
These changes would definitely be discovered by the design team. As the chief planner, Li Yada would not be so stupid as to not notice that there was an additional weapon on the item list.
Since they would definitely be able to see it, Pei Qian decided to tell them openly.
What's more, since Boss Pei had requested it, the design team would definitely help Boss Pei keep it a secret.
