Chapter 81: Italy, the Land of Games
Chapter 81 Italy, the land of games
Rome has been the capital of Italy since ancient times, and the city has its own unique iron-blooded romance, which has left too many legends. [Literature]
Broad-edged swords, edged shields, iron armies that conquered Europe, gladiatorial fights, Julius Caesar, Croto's party, generations of godfathers, death games......
It was not the first time Yang Hai had come under the Apennine sky, the last time he was in Santa Fe was also an unforgettable trip, and from the moment he stepped off the plane, he felt the difference in the city of Rome.
"Maybe it's because I'm a professional gamer." Yang Hai breathed the air of the Apennine Peninsula and listened to the noise in his ears, leaving from the exit of the airport, looking at this city of Caesars.
Rome's place in the history of modern gaming is very, very special.
Very, very special.
This is a long story, and I am afraid it will have to start with the Kloto Party.
The Cloto Party was formed by the merger of the Saltus, Etruscan and Sicilian parties more than seven hundred years ago. These three parties, they have a common ancestor, that is, the well-known black (harmonious) hand party. The Croto Party is the only black (harmonious) society that has so far survived under the federal system, thanks to the merger of the three parties of Saltus, Etruscan and Sicily.
It's as if all the great scientific phenomena β radium, gravity, and so on β originated in an accident β because of a massive drunkenness of the Academy of Sciences, the source code for the federal central processing unit was born.
The powerful surveillance power of the central processing unit has almost wiped out the foundation of the existence of the black (harmonious) society, but it still leaves a gap.
This gap is called the Game of Death.
I don't know what the road is, but the game of death is not a crime in the calculations of the federal CPU. Of course, the government wants to fix the vulnerability, but no one knows how to crack the source code of this unbiased processor.
It was for this reason alone that the Kloto Party was born.
What is a Game of Death? A game of death is a gamble, the stakes are the lives of both parties, and the winner can not only get back his own life as a bet, but also take the life of the opponent who is the bet. For G pros, death games are more distant, but for Kloto's pros, death games are more common.
The status and prestige of professional gamers in Klotto's party is very high.
When someone violates the rules of the party and needs to be put to death, a one-sided game of death is played - the sinner loses, he dies; The sinner wins, and his opponent will not pay with his life, which is a one-sided death game.
Of course, it is impossible for the government to approve of such an approach, the death game is inherently humanitarian, extremely bloody and brutal in terms of the scene, and the government certainly believes that the sinners should be judged by themselves, not the so-called death games.
Among the three constituent parties, the Saltus party was originally formed by Italian professional gamers, and it was not a simple black (harmonious) society, but they joined the Saltus party with a black background because they were dissatisfied with the high taxes of the g, which brought about a qualitative change in this party. The Etruscan Party and the Sicilian Party were black (harmonious) societies in the pure traditional sense.
Today, however, the Kloto Party is no longer just a black (harmonious) society that remains as the only surplus, and the Kloto Party calls themselves the true heirs of the spirit of the game, and they are extremely disdainful of the G's officials, ridiculing Kloto's professional gamers as golden birds in cages, "eagle dogs and lackeys of the imperial court".
Clotto's contempt for authority, fierce personality, fighting spirit, never give up, Klotto's spirit as a value has even been recognized and admired by game fans in the game world, and the blood is boiling and awe-inspiring, which is inconceivable for a black (harmonious) society.
It's rare for Italian pros to join G, and they're almost all loyal fans of Cloto. On the game map of the world, only Italy belongs to Klotto, and the rest of the world can be said to be all G. But in such a situation, the Croto Party sits in a corner of Italy, and does not fall behind against the heroes of the world, which is really respectful. Italy is known as the kingdom of games, this country is an unparalleled country for the game industry, Italy has the best youth training system in the world, just like Brazilians are born to play football, French people are born to pick up girls, every Italian child has grown up in the game since childhood, they are immersed in the incomparable happiness brought by the game, while being influenced and nurtured by the spirit of Cloto, becoming fierce and tenacious, arrogant. [Literature],
Tony, the best professional gamer of this era, is Italian, and Visconti, the god of war, is also Italian - Nuo Tianwang is a Chinese, but when he was six years old, he was taken to the Apennine Peninsula by an Italian named ksheno to be carefully trained, and then he began the path of the Heavenly King.
Although G never admits it, every fan who really knows the history of gaming understands what this people with the blood of the arena, the blood of the gladiators, the blood of Julius Caesar means to the world of gaming. Ζ{ Hand. Hit / Bar Shouda8.}
Italy made Cloto, and Cloto made Italy.
In the official rankings, Sweden is stronger than Italy, but everyone knows that it is a fig leaf hung by the bureaucrats of G, and that's it.
Some people may wonder if this is the case, why will the draft be held in Rome? Because the Apennine was established before the establishment of the Cloto Party, it was a tradition that all European young professional players would come to Rome for the draft, and although the whole of Italy later fell under the control of the Cloto Party, this tradition was preserved. For their part, the Italians did not resist the draft being held in the city of Rome.
Although G is Klotto's sworn enemy, when good pro players appear, Italians cheer them on just as much - in the name of the game. In the eyes of Italians, these young people are the hope of the future of the gaming industry, they should, and must be treated fairly, and they cannot be threatened and intimidated because of the camp.
Italians have spared no effort to promote and protect their younger generations, and it is precisely because of this that Italians have produced many talents and made other countries ashamed.
Isn't that incredible?
But, this is Italy.
There is the most frenetic game atmosphere, the most game-savvy game fans, the most luxurious and advanced arenas, the most novel and peculiar game tactics - and, of course, a group of black-hearted Crotos.
For everything that his half of the motherland has, Yang Hai has heard of the name for a long time, and it is like thunder.
The last time in Santa Fe, game fans from all over the world came together, and it looked more like a hodgepodge of one country, and I couldn't see it clearly, but now ...... Now I can take a good look at it myself.
This time, Yang Hai didn't bring anything except the Vp cards of the three major banks, so it was extremely easy in a group of people carrying large and small luggage. Standing on the square, Yang Hai looked around, and it didn't seem to be much different from Berlin...... But I don't know what the road is, the air breathing apparatus here just feels comfortable.
Yang Hai looked from afar and saw that there was a very tall building over there, with a very peculiar shape, which looked like it had been moved from a comic to reality, and it looked very eye-catching in a group of decent buildings. He called out to a service V3 robot and asked what the building was for.
The robot answered his question in a polite and unsentimental voice: "Hello, husband, that building is the Center for Game Tactics Research in Rome. β
Watching the robot go away, Yang Hai looked towards the building again.
Game Tactics Research Center?
Although Yang Hai didn't know if it was necessary to build such a magnificent mansion in order to study a game tactic, all of a sudden, he felt that maybe the city was indeed different from Berlin.
This is Rome, this is the capital of Italy, the country of games, this is the city of games.
Yang Hai felt a little hungry, so he went directly to the bank at the airport to withdraw some cash, and then took the air T to ask the driver to take him to a more authentic local restaurant, he wanted to taste the legendary authentic pasta.
The driver drove with him for about twenty-five minutes, and when he arrived at an inconspicuous small restaurant not far away, Yang Hai paid and got out of the car and walked in.
Italy is known for its beauty, good food and pro gamers, so how can you not come here without a lesson?
The restaurant is very modern, bright and spacious, and the dΓ©cor is very metallic. It was close to noon at the moment, and many people were having lunch at this restaurant, which made the restaurant a little crowded. Yang Hai felt that there were so many people in such a seemingly remote place, it should be that the smell of wine was not afraid of deep alleys, and it seemed that the T driver did not fool me.
A game is playing on the big screen in the restaurant, and many people are watching it. ,
Yang Hai looked around for a while, and now there was no one sitting in the seat opposite a woman by the window, so he walked over and asked, "Can I sit here?" βγ
The woman was stunned for a moment, did not speak, and nodded.
The woman was wearing a large pair of sunglasses that covered half of her face, making it difficult to read. However, her skin is very good, and the sunlight outside the window is reflected in it, and it seems that her skin is more and more blown. The woman, with a chestnut head that curls slightly down like a waterfall, lowered her head and took a sip of her cocktail with a straw in her mouth, then turned her head sideways to watch the game.
Yang Hai ordered a standard pasta, a fruit salad, and a draft beer to the waiter, and also looked at the big screen.
Seeing the game on the screen, Yang Hai was really taken aback.
If it weren't for Italy, I am afraid it would not be easy to see......
This is a match within the Kloto Party, and the two teams are fighting. He looked at the note below, which was a match between Team shZ and Team muRe.
In Italy, gambling is legal. Kloto doesn't have a league, and their pros are all teaming up on their own and looking for games to play. Some bosses are sometimes very simple in resolving business disputes, each with a team, a game, and the results speak for themselves. This phenomenon is only possible in a country like Italy, where other countries should not think about it.
These two teams are playing a gambling game, not a gambling game to resolve disputes, but a pure gambling game. The top of the screen shows the bets of both sides, judging from the stakes, shZ has a slight advantage, and the people who buy them to win together spent a total of 3o70,000 federal guilders, while the other side is not too bad, more than 3o10,000. This kind of game is a betting day, call over, tell the other side how much you want to bet, and then after the voice signature is confirmed, the money will be directly deducted from the account of the federal personal center, and will be returned according to the result after the game is over.
Yang Hai intends to play two, but the game has already started, so naturally he can't bet.
This is a team battle, and the game content is "ten... Twenty-five points", mecha wars.
Yang Hai watched the game with a relaxed attitude, but after a few glances, his expression became serious.
These players ...... These d......
I don't know any of these D Yang Hai.
But that's why he was surprised.
Yang Hai had never heard of these people, which showed that these people were not well-known characters in the game world, but he looked at them for two minutes, and now although these people are not strong, they are not weak one by one. In fact, in Italy, the shZ team and the muRe team are relatively famous teams, and their players cannot be regarded as parallel goods, but they have not become famous internationally.
Everyone on the scene of Yang Hai has a very good tactical literacy, and these people have a very strong sense of position. It's not easy, and only players with a high game IQ can show such a good sense of position, and these people may not be able to do it on their own, but as a role player, it's definitely enough.
Yang Hai suddenly remembered the vacant No. 3 player in the e-type - I wonder if Lu Dao can find a suitable candidate in Italy. Even if it's not as powerful as godLke, it's not unacceptable to find a good character team member if you can be like these people.
Yang Hai is a little addicted to watching it, to be honest, the strength of the two sides is not strong, and there is no superstar who can decide the game, but every person on both sides of them, every action has a very clear tactical intention, and this kind of game also has a different kind of pleasing to the eye in the eyes. As a professional player from EC, Yang Hai is more and more surprised the more he looks at it, the more he looks at it, the more surprised he becomes, the team members on both sides have reached a certain level of understanding of the game, and they cooperate very tacitly, not to mention anything else, just this group of professional players with such a high game IQ, why haven't you heard of it before?
That's right...... Kloto
Yang Hai kind of figured out what to do.
These people are probably from the Klotto Party.
However, what makes Yang Hai a little puzzled is that he can watch it with relish because he can understand the tactics of the two sides and you go back and forth against each other, and these uncles and beauties who eat in the restaurant are also very happy to watch, can you understand this level of competition?
Tactical battles like this are very boring for the average game fan, who prefers to watch the flashes of superstars rather than such elaborate tactics. ,
What surprised Yang Hai even more was that as the tactical confrontation between the two sides became more and more intense, some game fans began to discuss.
An uncle with a big belly and a red face pointed to the screen and said, "shZ people should be careful, the little action of muRe's fifth position just now...... Gee...... Cunning little guy, Ha Lu Ha. The move of muRe's No. 5 just now may mean that they have to change this targeted tactic and drag the game back, only to be raided by shZ once and temporarily suppressed by the bullet. β
Yang Hai swallowed his beer and looked at the pot-bellied uncle in surprise.
No matter how you look at it, he's an ordinary person. But this uncle opened his mouth on the fifth and closed his mouth, and after he closed his mouth, he was completely commenting in the tone of a professional ec. Although the view is a little narrow, and it lacks a big picture, it is already very rare.
What surprised Yang Hai even more was that a child next to the uncle, who looked to be only seven or eight years old, said in a milky voice: "No, it's not just delaying, there should be other ideas." I think it may be that No. 5 wanted to play a change with No. 3 and take advantage of the situation to counterattack, but unfortunately the best time was missed, and this change failed to be played. β
Yang Hai looked at the child with wide eyes.
One of the advantages of wearing sunglasses is that you can stare at others unscrupulously without being seen, and of course, sometimes you need to squint. This, this, this...... How old is this kid to see so many things?
The people around the diners discussed this issue.
"Misplaced tactics? It's not like ah......"
"It is also possible, although this kind of transposition may lead to the loss of No. 4, but it is also possible to turn the situation back first, and then make up for the defense."
"It's hard to say...... This approach is a bit risky. It's better to play rotation and find strong points...... After all, muRe's No. 2 position is still strong. β
"If you don't get support for the strong point, it won't work, and muRe's second position is not Visconti, so if you don't change positions at this time, will you wait until something goes wrong?"
"It's better to play rotation, under the cover of No. 4, take turns to pull out and attack, and the efficiency is not explained."
β¦β¦
Yang Hai looked at these people discussing the situation, there were adults, children, and even an old woman who gave an insightful opinion.
After being shocked, Yang Hai suddenly understood what Italy is and what is the country of games.
Fans of gaming in this country are so different.
They are simply the most game-savvy game fans in the world, and even the analysis of the game is of a professional level. Yang Hai suddenly understood that there was no commentary at all for the game being played on the screen, everything was generated from demand, and Italian game fans did not need commentary, they had their own incisive opinions on the game.
Admiring in his heart, Yang Hai felt inexplicably happy, this is the paradise of a professional gamer...... The Kloto people are still quite happy.
In a good mood, the degree of eliminating food is naturally very fast, and the girl in sunglasses opposite was a little stunned to see Yang Hai destroying food in a hurry, and a mocking smile crossed the corner of her mouth.
Such a wonderful game is ongoing, and I just want to eat...... Sure enough, there are so many mediocre people in this world, let me meet another one.
Yang Hai didn't see the slightest hint of mockery, and he didn't have the ability to read minds, so he could only be slandered.
Poured a large bunch of beer, the cool feeling turned from the stomach to the door of the head, and the trouble of growing a beard came out, and Yang Hai had to take a tissue to clean up the wine stains on his beard.
After a good meal, the game on the screen is nearing its end. At this moment, the diners were still talking about the upcoming winners and losers between the two sides, Yang Hai smiled and said softly: "It must be muRe who wins." β
The girl in sunglasses, who had never had any communication with Yang Hai, suddenly looked up and said, "Don't talk nonsense." β
Yang Hai was a little confused, he didn't know what to do, and suddenly the cold-looking woman was talking to him.
"Nonsense?" Yang Hai reacted and smiled. "This kind of purely tactical wrestling has been doomed for a long time."
The mirror girl craned her neck proudly.
Yang Hai shook his head and said, "shZ is going to collapse." β
After saying that, he stood up and walked outside the restaurant.
The girl looked at Yang Hai's back, and the corners of her mouth once again raised a mocking smile.
What a philistine. She thought to herself.
She turned her head to the big screen, and a mocking smile suddenly froze on her face. The girl in sunglasses stood up abruptly and walked out of the restaurant, only to see the traffic on the street, and no longer see the back of the man in the black trench coat, sunglasses, and beard.
