Stray Chapter 193: It’s over
"The quality of this game...it's amazing, it's like it's really timed, is this the next-gen game of full stealth?"
The anger and resentment from before are completely gone, and even the disgusting feeling of resistance to the environment just now seems to be forgotten all at once, looking at his raised hands, feeling the real feeling of Yan An, At this moment, he couldn't help but utter such muttering to himself.
The hands in front of me are covered with calluses and scratches. At first glance, they are the palms of working people who are working hard for a living. They are so clearly visible that even the fine hairs on the arms can be seen...
The air is filled with the smell of decay and dampness. It is the unique smell of damp and rotten wood, and I don't know if it is because of the port and the sea in the distance. I always feel that there is still in the air. A hint of salty taste...
In my ears, I can hear the noise outside, the footsteps of various people coming and going, the slapstick and shouts of disputes, frictions and conflicts...
There is also the touch of the skin, which can also clearly perceive the slightly cold temperature in the air, and even the dampness and greasy touch of the water vapor unique to the sea...
All in all, everything is so clear and clear, and all the feedback from the sensory perception is telling him that this seems to be a real world, and he can act according to his own thoughts and make various actions.
Whether it's walking back and forth or making a sound, Yan An is deeply fascinated by the impact of this experience.
Excited, nervous, ecstatic...
It was probably because all kinds of emotions appeared in his consciousness at the same time, which seemed too complicated. Even he didn't know what he was thinking about at this time, as if the thoughts in his mind were uncontrollable. It seems to be blank, thinking about nothing.
After a while, he remembered something important, so he hurriedly looked down at his body, pinching his arms here, pinching his thighs there, still feeling quite novel.
No wonder I didn't realize something was wrong the first time I woke up, it was just like my original body.
The sensory perception is clear and completely synchronized. All feedback is immediate and timely. Not to mention these, it seems that even the height and weight are not much different from the original, quite close to him. This is the important reason why he feels natural!
Trying to open the most basic character panel, a series of data streams quickly appeared in his field of vision, interweaving into a special projection page.
You don't need to say any keywords, and you don't need to do any operations. It's just the interaction of ideas. You can open it directly if you want to open it, which is very convenient. And this scene was like the name of the previous map of "Hanoi To Port" was displayed, which made Yan An lose a sigh of relief.
It's like taking a reassurance pill, because it's too real, and if he doesn't find some anchors for reference, he will subconsciously feel that he has traveled to some other world, and subconsciously, he will feel a burst of heart palpitations and panic.

"Wait, is that all?"
Feeling that the template was too simple, Yan An couldn't help but complained. He took a closer look and felt that it was probably because he hadn't really chosen a profession yet, so many things were not turned on.
And this role seems to give him a pretty good feeling. It is worthy of being the option with the highest overall quality in his selection list. Except for mental retardation, other attributes are not lower than the standard.
Although there is no explanation, as long as people with normal IQ take a look, they should know that the standard value of the six attributes is 10 points. And the attributes of this character are indeed relatively balanced, but they still have advantages in some aspects.
You don't even need any background or story to explain, Yan An can take it for granted to outline the past experience of his body——
Living around the wharf, the regular physical labor makes the hands of young people wear out calluses, and also gives a great deal of physical exercise...
However, judging from the outstanding agility attributes, as well as the corresponding skills and expertise, this young man's previous experience is more complicated. It seems that he is not only an honest laborer, but may also do some sneaky things sometimes...
Yan An didn't think too much, and continued to check other system functions, but found that many functions that are in normal games are not available here.
But it seems to be expected, this game seems to be a serious pursuit of reality, and he now thinks it is better this way, not so much bells and whistles, which in turn ruins the game experience - at least for now thought so.
Confirmed the existence of the most basic function of exiting the game, he felt relieved, then went to the door in high spirits, pulled the latch, and walked out, ready to embrace this real world.
The strong and real breath of life is coming!
As soon as you go out from the door, it is a chaotic block. All kinds of people in shabby clothes are walking alone or in groups of three or five, coming and going. Some people are carrying heavy goods on their shoulders, while others are pushing on a unicycle.
The whole road was muddy, and there was also the smell of excrement, urine and feces left by various mules and horses. The strong smell made Yan An's expression change.
This is a little too real!
And didn't you choose to be a commoner? Can a person who lives in such a ghost place be considered a commoner? It is clearly a poor man, and it feels like there is only one line between slaves and slaves.
He fought back the nausea and kept convincing himself that this was just an in-game experience, so he took the risk and walked out the door.
There are many NPCs around, not only humans, but also dwarves, half-elfs, half-orcs and other characters. It feels like traveling to a different world in the Middle Ages, which really dazzles Yan An and feels more novel.
In his field of vision, there is still some special treatment for players, that is, the various pedestrian NPCs who come and go have a name on their heads.
However, there are only a few people with bright names on their heads. Most people only have a line of question marks like "???", indicating unknown. As for why there is such a difference, Yan An does not clear.
It was only very soon that he vaguely discovered that those NPCs with names on the top of their heads would have a slightly unique interaction with him, perhaps just smiling at himself, or simply nodding in greeting.
Although most of them are just simple and subtle movements, they are invisibly distinguished from other NPCs who ignore him directly. Yan An probably has a clear understanding. Could it be that he can directly see the name of the NPC , does it represent the person who has known and dealt with before this default identity?
This kind of guidance seems to be good, but it can be done so clearly, why do you have to do so many rigid, crappy and popular beginner tutorials before?
Yan An's mood improved a little. He stood on the edge of the muddy road with great interest, watching all kinds of pedestrians hurrying to and fro, feeling that a vivid picture of life unfolded in front of him.
I just don't know, are so many NPCs intelligent?
A thought popped into his mind, and he suddenly became curious. This game was beyond his imagination, but if the NPCs in it were still stupid and would only repeat fixed lines and procedures, it would be a Failed.
"Hello! Can you hear me?"
Do what you want, Yan An said directly to an NPC who was carrying a heavy load, sweating profusely, and walking in front of him.
“…”
“…”
The brawny man walked like a fly, he didn't give a **** about him at all, he just passed by at once.
Yan An was stunned for a moment, and then repeated the process several times, but it was basically the same. The best one was to give him a very impatient and stern look, and then just passed by, as if it was a fundamental problem. No time wasted as much as he did.
"As expected, through this tricky design, let the irrelevant NPC simply become the background and not intersect with the player?"
He stands there with palpable disappointment on his face.
"But it's just treating people as fools. At first, you may think these reactions are unique and real, but then they will be exposed, and there is not even a guide. Who knows what NPCs are related? Or? Saying that everything without a name is a background?"
If he thinks about it this way, the whole game is a lot smaller all of a sudden, and it even makes him feel that it is too big and nothing to be true.
After all, if the unnamed NPCs are all used to fill the background, it might be better to delete them all, save some performance, and use them to fill in some useful content.
Feeling like Yan An was riding a roller coaster all the time, he let out a long sigh and grabbed a rude figure who was about to walk quickly by his side, ready to try again.
"Get out of the way! Don't get in the way!"
This time it was a strong man with a height of nearly two meters. He looked very bad, as if something had just happened to make him angry, and he didn't carry any goods, just walked quickly. .
So before Yan An opened his mouth, he scolded extremely violently, and threw off the former's hand.
"Ouch, do you still have a temper?"
And what to do with this grumpy personality? Yan An was startled at first, but then he became unhappy. The uncle of the player became angry—
"How about I just stand in your way, you bite me!"
While speaking, he stretched out his hand and continued to hold the NPC, refusing to let him go.
"Boy! Are you crazy?"
The brawny man seemed to be a little suspicious. He looked up and down at the madman in front of him, convinced that the other party was really just a muddy leg. He just didn't know what to do, and he seemed to lose his mind today.
"Do you know who I am? Still don't want to hang out in this area?"
"There are still lines? Wait, I don't care who you are, it's none of my business..."
Yan An said carelessly, while muttering in his heart, is this the normal way of interacting? Or is it simply good luck that I have come into contact with quest NPCs, isn't that the kind of background trick that couldn't be interacted with before?
"Go away now! I can ignore you..."
The strong man's face was gloomy, and he felt that he might have really encountered a lunatic.
"I just won't go! What can you do, hit me if you have the ability..."
Yan An turned around and continued to block in front of the other party, saying cheaply.
If it wasn't for the preset dialogue trigger, then the AI seemed to be relatively flexible. As far as this response was concerned, it seemed to be no different from the real person. He wanted to see how it would continue.
"You're courting death!" The strong man, who was in a very bad mood because of something, was even more angry, he roared and threatened in a low voice, his eyes full of murderous intent. "You uninspired bastard, guess how many I killed?!"
"Come if you can! If you don't kill me, you will be my grandson!"
Yan An continued to provoke triumphantly, wanting to see how the other party should respond with great interest.
No matter what, this is just a way to trigger the mission and lead to the next plot line. Are you really afraid that he will bite you?
The strong man stared at him with murderous eyes, and the crowd around him seemed to notice something. Some people who were familiar with Brown looked at him with incredible eyes, wondering if the Brown today was damaged. brain.
“…”
“…”
Yan An didn't realize it. The original owner's specialties such as "observation" and "alertness" were completely unable to play their due role under the player's bad nature. He had long forgotten that before. Repeated warning reminders, I have long forgotten the authenticity of the world that I was still feeling before.
He just thinks he is a player and can do anything to these NPCs, how could he be so brainless enough to integrate into the characters and act with them!
"You're waiting..."
The strong man suppressed something, glanced around, still a little afraid of killing people in public, he could only drop such a sentence gloomily, turn around and walk away quickly.
"Hey! Don't go! I'm not waiting, why are you cowardly..." Yan An shouted in dissatisfaction and quickly chased after him.
The strong man suddenly became more furious and quickened his pace, as did Yan An. The two quickly left the area one after the other.
There was only an uproar left. Many people couldn't help discussing it, and some people looked at the direction where the good guy left in the past with sadness and regret, knowing that no matter whether the other party is suddenly mentally disabled today, I'm afraid they will always return. not coming.
……
……
"Are you finally willing to stop?"
On the other side, Yan An didn't know what he was about to encounter, just followed the strong man around, and soon came to a remote alley.
The strong man also stopped in front.
"Is this the location where the mission was officially triggered? It's quite remote..." Yan An said carelessly, and walked forward directly, "Okay, let's start quickly if you have any parts, I..."
He hasn't finished his words yet.
The brawny man in front suddenly turned his head and swooped forward, a cold light flashed past.
Shout! The sound of the sharp blade piercing the flesh and blood splattered, Yan An didn't even react, and before he felt the pain, the strong man had already pulled out the sharp blade with a long string of blood beads, and then stabbed it again!
He didn't say a word, and he didn't roar. He just clamped the head of this ignorant brain to his armpit, and another strong and powerful arm kept piercing the opponent's body with a sharp blade!
A moment, a moment, a moment...
One after another deep puncture wounds appeared in an instant, and then they were submerged by the overflowing red liquid, and Yan An's entire body instantly turned into a half-blooded man.
The severe and real pain finally came too late. The sharp blade cut through the flesh and pierced the bone, bringing maddening pain. The pain and fear went straight to the forehead. Reality is unclear.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"
Frightened to the extreme, he struggled in horror, opened his eyes wide, and screamed and howled like a frightened middle-aged woman.
But in just a few seconds, the sound quickly fades away...
The alley was filled with a strong smell of blood. The strong man let go of his arms, and his body fell weak and weak. His weak and unwilling instinctive struggle had lost his strength, and his head fell heavily into the mud. on the icy road.
In the eyes of horror and despair, I only saw a ruthless big foot falling from the sky——
Click!
Under the force of great brutality, the neck bone was broken!
