The woman revealed her figure which had been hidden in the light and shadow.

Seeing this scene, Tang Baibai's heartbeat slowed down.

Because she was so familiar with this woman's face.

This face that looks like Lucy is undoubtedly the face of V that she has been shaping for a long time.

Tang Baibai was shocked and said, "Ah? Wait a minute? This is me?"

However, before she could react to what was happening in front of her.

The screen suddenly went dark.

V's body softened and she fell to the ground, while her gaze uncontrollably looked up to the sky.

then.

Wait until the screen lights up again.

It's daybreak.

With a strong ringing in her ears, V woke up in a daze. She loosened her hands that were covering her neck, and there was blood between her fingers. And on her neck, there was a deep bloodstain.

Silverhand's slightly anxious voice came from her mind.

"Fuck, I thought you wouldn't wake up. Damn, your damn brain..."

V covered his neck and asked with a grin, "...What happened to me? Was I attacked? Where's that cyberpsycho last night?"

"You really don't remember? Damn it, I knew that those second-rate guys in the Voodoo Gang were so generous, they must have bad intentions. After they succeeded, they wanted to silence you, so they put a virus in your brain, and you were burned crazy last night. Damn it, why didn't they just burn your second-rate brain? Now I have to be your babysitter."

Johnny Silverhand in my mind was cursing and talking about what happened last night.

Last night V suddenly went crazy. He ran to this abandoned factory in the middle of the night, fought with the air in the open space all night, and finally slit his own throat.

If Silver Hand hadn't taken over control of the body in time, V would have been on the death list of the Dead Lotto last night.

“Still can’t remember? Don’t you have the video of the implant? Watch it for yourself. Damn, it’s really worrying. …%¥¥%”

Silverhand seemed to be tired of talking, and impatiently spat out a few Night City swear words, and told V to watch the video by himself.

V started playing the video, and the scene changed again.

Time goes back to last night.

But what Tang Baibai never expected was that the initial perspective of the video was from the rooftop of an abandoned factory, looking down from a high vantage point.

Moreover, this video is not CG, and the characters can be controlled freely.

After adjusting his view, Tang Baibai immediately saw a car speeding towards the abandoned factory not far away.

Seeing the somewhat familiar car, Tang Baibai was surprised.

“Isn’t that my car?”

Tang Baibai was confused, but he watched the car getting closer and closer.

Even though she didn't understand what was happening, she returned to the keyboard and began to check her equipment.

With just a quick glance, Tang Baibai discovered that he had many powerful new prosthetics on his body.

Optical camouflage, surge-enhanced mantis blade...the performance and power of the prosthesis are much stronger than before.

"Wait, am I that cyberpsycho?"

Just as Tang Baibai finished checking the equipment on his body, the car just happened to arrive at a nearby open space.

Looking at the figure who got off the car, dressed beautifully and with white hair.

Tang Baibai's eyes widened.

At the same time, the opposite side also discovered Tang Baibai standing on the rooftop, who was extremely conspicuous, and rushed over here.

Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar scene in front of me.

In an instant, Tang Baibai figured everything out: "I blanch? Can I play like this?"

It’s still a BOSS battle, but the difference is that this time, Tang Baibai plays the BOSS.

There was no time to continue being shocked. Tang Baibai slowly activated the optical camouflage on his body and drew out a blood-red samurai sword.

Chapter 208: The cunning thief An

"No way? Is he really a player?!"

Tang Baibai and the newcomer V got into a fight.

Relying on the unlimited number of throwing objects, Tang Baibai directly used the Scattering Flowers technique, throwing them out without any cost, suppressing the opponent's V so much that he couldn't even lift his head.

Tang Baibai became more and more excited and familiar with the fight as it went on.

The desire to attack is particularly strong.

The AI ​​level is extremely high.

Use any means necessary to fight.

Oh my god, this is totally me!

In connection with Mihoyo's need to connect to the Internet when entering the official chapter, Tang Baibai has now completely confirmed that the V on the opposite side is a player, and the cyber psychopath he is fighting is also a player.

No wonder it’s so hard to beat!

When Tang Baibai thought about the abuse he had suffered before, his hands moved faster.

Tang Baibai laughed as he beat him, making a strange "hehehe!" sound, venting all his suppressed anger on the newcomer V.

The performance of her prosthetic body is stronger, there is no limit on ammunition, and even the use of medicine has no cooldown. The official plug-in is extremely useful.

Soon, what happened to her before happened again to this player.

She killed the opponent's V again and again, and then waited for the opponent to drive back.

It was not until the sixth time that Tang Baibai saw V again.

Her character is out of control and she says to herself, "There's no point in going on... No one can stand up to the company..."

Without Tang Baibai's control, V quickly defeated the cyberpsycho this time.

Then, the familiar scene happened again.

But it changes one's perspective.

Tang Baibai's character spoke, as if to V, or to himself: "You can't make it to the end. One day, you will fall here like me, halfway through..."

And V’s answer was: “No, I will keep winning.”

Then, the perspective moved and blood gushed out.

The screen went black, and when it came back to life, it was already daybreak. V sat on the roof of the factory, rubbing the dried blood on his palms, and said to himself, "Yes, I will keep winning."

The boss battle is over, and V is wearing the enhanced banned-level prosthetics.

But Tang Baibai now had no intention of checking out the powerful prosthetic body that he had been dreaming about.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

After a boss battle, I have time to review it, and all the shocks accumulated during the previous game process come flooding back to my mind.

That’s what happened!

Narrative trickery.

Cyberpsychopaths are gamers, and gamers are cyberpsychopaths.

Mihoyo has been playing a big game from the very beginning.

This extra-long series of side quests uses the previous 17 cyberpsychosis segments as a prelude to help players develop habitual thinking.

If players can complete the first 17 tasks, they will naturally do the 18th task. Even if there are some abnormalities in it, it is difficult for players to find it at the first time.

Moreover, the more crucial point is that even if the mission is very difficult and players are abused again and again, they will not give up easily.

After all, a long list of tasks has reached the last link. Who would give up in the end?

As long as players persist until the sixth time, they will be able to gain an unprecedented gaming experience.

Just as she guessed, Mihoyo put so much content into this long side quest, which must play a very important role in the plot.

But she didn't expect that Mihoyo would use this form of expression to reflect V's growth.

At the beginning, when fighting the last BOSS, Tang Baibai, who died several times, was a little impatient, because the frustration was really strong, it was like an invincible enemy. Just like what she said to herself: "There is no point in moving forward... No one can resist the company..."

Until from another perspective, Tang Baibai experienced it all again.

Watching V, during her cyberpsychosis attack, embody the self that was afraid of the company and terrified of the company, and defeating her.

When the embodied V committed suicide and left a curse,

The real V simply responded: "No, I will always win."

The kind of shocking feeling that makes your scalp tingle is really hard to describe.

Tang Baibai paused the game and fell silent.

The audience who had watched this far but had not yet completed the long-term task of cyberpsychosis were also shocked.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't have any feelings about Night City. I was wrong. I'm going to buy it now!"

"I can't start! Is this Mihoyo's script design?"

"The previous plot was good, but this part really moved me. 'No one can resist the company?' Who said that? Me! Then he defeated his weak self, and V's image suddenly became more three-dimensional. What a stroke of genius!"

"A masterpiece, no explanation needed."

"More importantly, this narrative trick is superb. It starts with a cyberpsychosis attack and unfolds in two directions. The player fights the boss, and the boss fights the player. In the end, the player is playing both ends. It completely fits the setting of the world view. I am so fucking blown away!"

"This is the second time I've played a game that made my scalp numb. The last time was at Star Iron!"

“Hahaha, am I the only one who thinks that the tsundere Silver Hand that silently protects V is cute? Why didn’t Mihoyo make Silver Hand into a girl? Annoying, annoying, annoying!”

"Wouldn't a man be better?"

"I'm Chao, Nan Tong, stay away from me!"

"..."

Tang Baibai glanced at the barrage of comments that started to go crazy after just a few serious words, yawned, and felt his eyes a little sore.

But the scene just now was so shocking that she couldn't sleep at all.

After washing and patting his face, Tang Baibai sat back in front of the computer, planning to play Yihui again.

"Really, just play for a while longer."

……

……

Noon the next day.

Rice hoax.

"Huh? So fast?"

An Yi raised his head and looked at Qu Ziyi who came in to report, a little surprised: "It's only noon, and someone has already finished the branch quest of cyberpsychosis?"

"Well, I see that the little broken website is now uploading a lot of information, and there are a lot of analysis videos released."

Qu Ziyi was also a little surprised, but he nodded and said, "If you play the game from the time it was released until now, it should be about the same, right?"

"……Too."

The corners of An Yi's mouth twitched.

This... According to his expectations, this task should take at least a day for someone to complete.

It seems that he still underestimated the enthusiasm of the players.

For the sake of players' health, Anyi began to consider whether to set up an anti-addiction system on stand-alone games.

However, An Yi thought about it carefully and decided to give up. After all, they were all adults and had the freedom to play games.

"What are the players' opinions? Are they receptive to this form of BOSS battle?" An Yi was too lazy to check the small broken website and asked directly.

"The reviews were amazing! Players were all praising it. There were even several editors from game review media who came to the company's gate early in the morning to interview people, but they were stopped by the security guards..."
