When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 691 The Disappearing Dialog Box
If you follow the original game mechanism, there are many ways to match and play with friends in this kind of team-based game.

Games like "The Fire Thief" and "Project Star" actually have similar mechanisms.

But in the family version of Shadow World, Lilith ruthlessly blocked all similar mechanisms, leaving players with the only way to complete these challenges through random matching.

This also makes sense: if players can invite friends to play together at will, then they can naturally spend money to hire someone from the studio to play the person who needs to make sacrifices, or find real friends to give each other a game.

The difficulty of passing the level will be greatly reduced.

This random matching mode randomly matches players from all over the world. Even if the network delay is taken into account and the nearest match is made, players from the Chinese server are likely to be matched with players from the Korean server, Japanese server, or Southeast Asian server.

Not only that, Lilith has also insidiously added priority to this matching mechanism: players will be matched across regions first.

In other words, Chinese players are likely to match with foreign servers such as the US, European, Japanese, and Korean servers before they can have the chance to meet a Chinese player.

The same goes for other servers.

As a result, the probability of cooperation between players is further greatly reduced.

Not only is there a problem with language communication, but it is also more difficult to build mutual trust between the two sides.

This is the situation Li Wenhao is facing now. He finally meets a player who is willing to play a few more games with him and help him pass the level, but it is almost impossible to match them together again afterwards. He doesn't know who will get the advantage later.

But he had no choice but to continue playing in this way.

"BRO, this game is for players with low ratings to complete. If you are a novice, I will teach you how to play. Can you let me complete it?"

After receiving a positive response from the other party, Li Wenhao brought out the same excuse as before.

After a moment of silence, the other party asked, "WHY? How could you do this to these cute silicon-based people? I need an explanation."

Li Wenhao had no choice but to instruct the other party to perform basic operations while explaining the reasons for doing so.

“Because in this game, people are also a resource.

“Our ultimate goal is to complete the Star Plan and escape from this planet. Only by treating humans as a resource can we achieve optimal efficiency.

"You don't want all the other silicon-based people to be sunburned to death just because of the retirement problems of a few silicon-based people, do you?"

Li Wenhao's English was just enough. He typed and used translation software at the same time, and finally managed to express his meaning roughly.

"OK, what you said makes sense, so what should I do specifically?"

Li Wenhao was very happy. That was great. He finally met a suitable puppet. Oh no, a new partner!

He began to command the other party and play in the most inhumane way.

Previously, domestic players, led by the "Park Supervisor", had already figured out a set of effective methods, and any one of them could result in the player being shot a hundred times as a Class A war criminal.

At this time, in order to pass the level, Li Wenhao did not hesitate to command the novice players to use these unethical measures.

Finally, with the cooperation of the two, they had good luck in this game. Not only did they successfully complete the game, but Li Wenhao also happened to be the one with the lower score, and he successfully controlled the score.

"Thank you bro, I love you bro!

"You are amazing!"

Li Wenhao was very happy and praised her generously.

The other party seemed to have suffered some mental trauma in the process: "You're welcome, but I want to play a normal game again to heal myself..."

This game can still be played repeatedly after completing it, but generally no player will do so.

Because everyone is still thinking about competing for the prize!
After completing a game, playing it again is purely to serve other players, which will do no good but only harm to yourself.

What's more, it is almost impossible to match with friends, only random passers-by.

Li Wenhao thanked the other party again and recommended to him several keywords in the teaching video for regular gameplay, and then exited "Star Project".

Then enter "The City Forsaken by God".

Li Wenhao did not hold out much hope for this game, because judging from the feedback from other players, "Star Project" was barely playable, while "God-Forsaken City" was basically completely unplayable.

Holding on to the God-Forsaken City for thirty years while Xia Mi continued to cause trouble was an almost impossible goal.

Because Against the Heaven had cruelly deleted the dialog box of this game, now I can’t chat with Xia Mi or teach her anything.

Moreover, Xia Mi's initial good and evil value was also increased by 10 points, which means that no matter how much it is deducted, it will never become a negative number, and the path of the fallen angel Xia Mi is completely blocked.

Many players have given up on learning strategies for this game and have turned to playing other games.

Li Wenhao didn't hold out much hope. He planned to spend about four hours on the game and try out a few simple starts. It would be great if he could find a breakthrough. If not, he would just play other games.

Everything went normal at the beginning, and Li Wenhao played in the usual way.

He looked at the moldy grain in the warehouse, and then looked at where Xia Mi was at the moment.

Hmm? Very good, Xia Mi went outside the city to provide relief to the victims.

Xia Mi is not here, so just feed her a few bites.

Li Wenhao hurriedly transferred moldy grain from the warehouse to feed the victims in the city.

There are really a lot of disaster victims in this game, both inside and outside the city. Players have to decide whether to accept disaster victims and how many to accept. Not accepting disaster victims or not giving them food will cause Xia Mi's favorability to drop.

There was no way around it. Li Wenhao could only choose the lesser of two evils and try his best to reduce Xia Mi's favorability as little as possible so that she could become an archangel later.

However, the moldy food had just been distributed and the victims had not even taken two bites when Xia Mi's dialog box popped up on the screen.

[Father, how could you give moldy food to the disaster victims? ]

Li Wenhao's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

Oh no, why did I come back so early? I was caught red-handed!

The AI ​​in this game is really elusive and hard to guard against. Especially this Xia Mi, who is simply the player's lifelong enemy.

Li Wenhao wanted to make a few more excuses, but after pressing the Enter key, he realized that this game did not have any dialog boxes at all.

Isn't this beyond any argument?

Maybe I could try to make some excuses and reduce the loss of favorability, but now I can only leave it to fate.

However, the next second, something unexpected happened to Li Wenhao.

【Here, people are also a resource. 】

[Our ultimate goal is to protect the God-forsaken City from being destroyed. Only by treating people as a resource can we achieve optimal efficiency.]

【It is unwise to waste one resource to maintain another resource. 】

[I think we can give the moldy food to the victims outside the city to let everyone know that there is food in the city abandoned by God. As for the victims who have entered the city, those who are healthy can go to the mines to mine, and those who are unhealthy can be transformed into undead soldiers. 】

[If you don’t have time to deal with these trivial matters, I can also do it for you. 】

[(Xia Mi's favorability towards you decreases)]

Li Wenhao was stunned: "Ah? Is this right?

"Is this something Xia Mi would say? Did I go to the wrong set?

"Oh no, I didn't install some 'Xia Mi Perfect Training MOD', did I? I won't get banned!

"No, this game is included in the Shadow World package. It has nothing to do with the client I played before!"

Li Wenhao was a little confused and couldn't figure it out.

Obviously, Xia Mi's AI was obviously abnormal at this time.

If it was a normal Xia Mi AI, he should be questioned at this time why he wanted to feed the victims moldy food. The victims are also human beings and they should eat normal food.

This Xia Mi is more like the state after being modified, that is, after being trained by the players, he is in the perfect tool state who regards human life as worthless.

At that time, it was by training this AI that the hardworking person successfully pushed the number of rounds of "City of God Forsaken" to more than 60, shocking the entire network.

After that, many players also used this mod, which directly replaced Xia Mi's AI, and the gaming experience had a leap forward.

The Xia Mi that Li Wenhao met at this time seemed to have been modified, and was a 180-degree turn compared to the original character.

But why? I didn't install any mods.
Li Wenhao was surprised and delighted. He continued to play according to the instructions while thinking about what was going on.

The following game content is very simple. With the help of such a Xia Mi, Li Wenhao can make perfect use of all the resources in the city and perform various inhuman operations without causing Xia Mi to explode and become an archangel.

The success rate of defending for more than 30 rounds is greatly improved.

Obviously, Li Wenhao triggered some special mechanism, causing Xia Mi's AI to change, but what was the specific mechanism?

“What she said at the beginning seemed a bit familiar.

"'Here, people are also a resource.'

"'Our ultimate goal is to protect the God-forsaken City from being destroyed. Only by treating people as a resource can we achieve optimal efficiency.'

"That sounds so familiar!"

These lines were not the ones that the instructor had used to train Xia Mi AI, and they had never been seen on the Internet before.

Instead...

When playing "Star Project", Li Wenhao once said something similar to his novice partner.

It's just that he spoke in slightly broken English at that time, while Xia Mi spoke in Chinese, so they couldn't connect the two at first.

Li Wenhao instantly had a bold guess.

“Could it be that… the dialogue box was deleted in “God-Forsaken City”, but for some reason, the dialogue box here is related to the dialogue box in “Project Stellar”?

“Xia Mi’s AI was actually affected by my conversations with other players in Project Star?

"It's very possible. After all, these games have the phenomenon of bug contagion. Two games with the same 10 levels often have each other's bugs. This is the case with Prison Force and Road Rage Simulator!
"I see. Is this the correct way to clear "God-Forsaken City"?"
