Chapter 4 The helpless game begins
"Part-time job? You said I was going to work for you, but the more I listened, the more confused I became. And who are you? I remember playing the game "Chessboard Continent", but how did it end up here? â
"You may have forgotten jĂŹ, you kid sent your resume some time ago, and I happened to receive one too. And my identity, I'm not afraid to sue you, it's the control system of this game, which is what you players call artificial intelligence. The old man looked at Pu Haolong with a smile, as if there was nothing special about his identity.
But Pu Haolong, who heard this, opened his mouth in surprise, he didn't expect the other party to say that it was artificial intelligence, this joke was a bit big. It is also said that he submitted his resume to the old man in front of him, and I remember that I had submitted a lot of resumes before, but I don't remember that there was a system written in front of him.
Looking at Pu Haolong's surprised appearance, the old man smiled lightly, and then said: "You kid, you have submitted all your resumes to me, but you kid wants to work for me, I think your level is a little low, but you need to work hard to improve." â
Pu Haolong finally recovered and said, "Don't you always make fun of me, I just want to play a good game, you better let me go." After speaking, Pu Haolong turned around and wanted to leave here, but he helplessly found that there was no road around, and he couldn't see the distance clearly. It's as if it's just a separate space, and there's no connection to the outside world at all.
"Boy, don't you want to be stronger? And what about your job? â
"Work? What kind of job can you give me, old man? And you say that you are an artificial intelligence, what proof do you have? Pu Haolong asked the question in his heart, so he didn't believe the other party's nonsense, it depended on how the other party explained.
"Don't believe me, boy. Look, what is this? The old man waved his hand lightly, and an air mass appeared in front of him, and a figure appeared in the air mass.
Pu Haolong took a closer look and found that another self appeared in the air mass. He was besieged by five people on the other side in the air mass, and he didn't have the slightest power to fight back, and he was quickly hacked to death by the five people on the other side, and a diary was also exploded.
"What's the matter, boy, you know how many dishes you have now, this is the scene just now, if it weren't for my identity as an artificial intelligence, how could you run to me." The old man smiled and waved his hand, and the air mass in front of him burst like this.
"Who is the other party? How did I end up there? â
"According to your players, they seem to be some kind of people from the European Continental Alliance, and you are there to take on the task of your work and help me jointly maintain the ...... of the chessboard continent"
Through the old man's explanation, Pu Haolong understood. It turned out that because he submitted his resume on the Internet, he was valued by the old man in front of him, that is, the artificial intelligence of the game Chessboard Continent, and became a senior GM in the game, and his task is to maintain the process in the game, guide or curb the development of players, and make the game of Chessboard Continent operate for a longer time to ensure the life of the old man in front of him.
Of course, the old man's statement is because there are often some small bugs in the game, and in addition to controlling the overall situation, there is no way to solve these small things, so he will hand it over to Pu Haolong, so that he can assist in completing the operation of the game, so that players can play more comfortably.
"Old man, I believe you are the system, but aren't you afraid of being discovered, you pulled me into this space, in case you are found by the people of the game company, you will be miserable. You can send me a letter or something, there's no need to pull me into this space. â
"Haha, I thought you kid didn't ask, I was an artificial intelligence that controls the game process, it can be said that everything in the game is controlled by me, as long as there are no major problems, no one can interfere with the game process, which means that no one can take care of me."
Pu Haolong spread his hands and said, "Okay, old man, you are strong, I understand what you said." But in reality, I'm a member of a game studio, and I still need to complete tasks in the game, and I'm helping you plug loopholes every day, so what should I do? â
The old man smiled and said: "You can rest assured of this, I don't let you maintain the loopholes all day long, but just let you fill the loopholes from time to time and act as a GM." Of course, don't worry, I won't let you do it for nothing, and occasionally I will give you some sweetness for you to taste and help you level up faster. You will have two accounts in the game, one is the NPC account that maintains the normal operation of the game, and the other is the game identity that you are going to create now. â
"Oh, that's not impossible, don't you just want me to be an infernal officer, but you're just talking about it, I'm creating an account in the game now, shouldn't you give some sweetness?" Pu Haolong rubbed his hands, it seems that this time it must be the rhythm of making a fortune, since the whole game is controlled by the artificial intelligence in front of him, he is not going to be windy and rainy.
"I'm really sorry, I can't do it, okay, don't delay you to continue the game, go ahead."
"Wait a minute, old man, you won't be so slammy." Pu Haolong struggled, and he also wanted to get the benefits from the old man back.
"You have your sweetness in the future, now you go and create characters first." As soon as the old man's voice fell, he waved his hand and sent Pu Haolong away.
"Old man, I can't help myself, no one can take care of me at the moment, but how the game's bug causes the game system to crash, without the intervention of the game company, this game has no way to run, and as for the old man, I have lost the value of saving zĂ i." The old man shook his head lonely and walked towards the depths, of course, these words were no longer heard by Pu Haolong.
Pu Haolong found that he appeared in a flowing spring, and when he looked towards his body, he was surprised to find that his body was a ball of light, and there was no substance at all.
Just as he hesitated, suddenly seven bodies appeared in the sky. On their heads are humans, elves, skeletons, orcs, dwarves, demons, and vampires.
Seeing these seven bodies, it was obvious that he was making a choice, but for Pu Haolong, a rookie in the game, no one had ever told him what he should choose. There are so many beauties in the game studio, but no one reminds him, it seems that he has no status as a miscellaneous worker.
He looked at these seven bodies depressedly, and after looking at them for a long time, he didn't feel that he could choose which body was more powerful, so he chose randomly with his eyes closed.
Stretching out his hand, Pu Haolong opened his eyes and saw that it was a skeleton, but looking at the miserable appearance of the skeleton, thinking about himself, he shook his head or forgot it, and finally said: "I choose human beings." â
During the previous test, he appeared as a human being, and he was more familiar with the human body, which was the only option Pu Haolong could think of.
As soon as the words fell, there was only one of the seven bodies in front of him, which was the human he chose. Pu Haolong doesn't know if it's good to choose human beings, think about it anyway, it's just a rookie, and what to do with such high requirements, just let it be.
The human body suddenly floated over, and Pu Haolong also rushed towards the human body, and the two collided and merged together wonderfully, and then the prompt sound of the system came from the ear: "Congratulations to the player for successfully establishing the character, may I ask if you have entered the game?" â
And that's the end of it? Inexplicably, Pu Haolong looked at the human body speechlessly, what the hell is going on? I looked at it, and I didn't find any changes, my body was still my own, but the only change was that my body was now naked, and a gust of wind blew, and I shivered unconsciously, and hurriedly covered my hands underneath.
At this time, the voice of the system came: Congratulations to the player for obtaining 1 rotten wooden stick and 1 tattered leather coat.
The leather coat was worn directly on his body, but how did Pu Haolong look at it and feel weird. Holding a wooden stick, he was wearing a simple leather coat, and the whole person looked very much like he had just run out of the primitive tribe, plus a small belly, he looked nondescript.
Pu Haolong stood in place and waited for a long time, but there was no more prompting, it seemed that the system had nothing but two tatters, which was simply too far from what he imagined.
Anyway, if he doesn't give a job to the old man who claims to be an artificial intelligence, how can he do this, just give him something good, preferably some money or something, and let his wage earner come to the chessboard continent in such rags. In this way, I don't know when I can become a master of what the old man said, and there is a one-month deadline for the studio waiting for him.
As far as the eye can see, what appears in front of him is a small village, and this place called Leaning Moon Village, it is rare to see players like him, after all, the game has been six months old, and the army of players has left this small village and gone to a wider place.
Most of the people in the village are now some NPCs, and occasionally two or three players run by, and they also leave quickly, leaving Pu Haolong, who wants to ask about the situation, blind. What to do now, there is no task prompt at all, thinking of this, I sighed helplessly.
Carrying a rotten wooden stick, he walked over to a man who looked like a village chief, and Pu Haolong asked, "What should I do now?" â
The village chief squinted his eyes and glanced at Pu Haolong, and said angrily: "Go away, don't you see that I'm patrolling my village, go and play, I don't have time to take care of you." â
"You." Pu Haolong pointed at the old man and stopped talking, he didn't expect the old man in front of him to be so difficult to speak, and he wanted to ask him about the situation, but he didn't expect the other party to have such an attitude.
Pu Haolong walked forward helplessly, since the village chief is so difficult to get along with, then he is asking others, he doesn't believe that the people in this village are as difficult as the old man.
"What can I do?" Pu Haolong asked the eldest lady on the side.
The eldest lady interrupted Pu Haolong unceremoniously, snorted impatiently and walked away. I really don't know what the hell is going on? Why are the people here so difficult to get along with, Pu Haolong, who does not believe in evil, then asked the people from the front of him.
However, the situation is still the same, no matter how many people Pu Haolong asks, all he answers is an unceremonious interruption by NPCs and an unreasonable expellation.
Pu Haolong, who had asked around the village, sat helplessly on the ground, he couldn't understand why no NPC was willing to deal with him, what was going on.
At this moment, a light lit up not far from him, and a player wearing the same tattered leather armor and holding a rotten wooden stick was born.
"Great." Pu Haolong looked at the player in front of him happily, he wanted to see how this player started the mission, and he also started the mission.
The player first ran to the village chief, said a few words to the village chief, and then ran towards the eldest lady that Pu Haolong had met before, and after saying a few words, he saw that the eldest lady actually took out a cloth and handed it to him, and after the player put it on, he was about to run to a blacksmith not far away, but suddenly an arm appeared to stop him.
