Game production, I entered the Star Iron shooting CG

And here, just when Tang Baibai thought that everything would end smoothly, V received some unfortunate news and a dilemma from Ultra.

The real V might have died long ago, from the bullet that lodged itself in her brain, or died in a garbage dump outside Night City.

The RELIC chip in her brain preserved her consciousness and revived her, but not completely.

And now, because of the side effects of the RELIC chip and the large amount of controlled drugs taken, V's body has undergone irreversible changes. The RELIC chip has permanently changed V's body.

At this point, even if Silver Hand's consciousness was removed, V's body would spontaneously reject her original consciousness.

This intense rejection reaction would drastically shorten V's lifespan. Otto calculated that V's remaining time would probably be no more than six months.

On the contrary, if V's consciousness is stripped away, Silverhand can take over the body without any side effects and live healthily.

Moreover, because of his physical adaptability, Silver Hand had absolute control over the decision of whether the two should stay or go.

The truth is cruel.

It was so cruel that even V, who had gone through such a difficult journey, found it hard to accept.

Of course, the same goes for the players in front of the screen.

It is hard for anyone to accept that after striving to the end, all you get in the end is a feeling of powerlessness and emptiness.

The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment in the end.

a long time.

V seemed to accept the reality.

"I... I can't believe it. Everything we did... was in vain." V's voice sounded a little low, and it could be heard that she was suppressing her emotions. After a pause, she looked at Silver Hand and continued: "I've had enough of everything. Especially you, a bastard."

However, just before V was about to make the final decision to let go of everything and put an end to it all, Silverhand spoke first.

"That's great, because we're going to proceed as planned. Otto and I'm going to go to god knows where, and you can keep the body."

"Where will she take you?"

"Outside the black wall, become a part of her."

The two of them communicated calmly.

"What does the other side of the black wall look like..."

"I don't know, but if I haven't lost my will, at least no one can climb over my head anymore."

Silverhand's tone was relaxed and a little bit satisfied, just like a fighter who had won the most satisfying battle of his life, then took off his armor, and then lay in a steaming hot bath to talk about his feelings with his best friend.

He said that he would leave his body to V and was ready to face his own end calmly.

He motioned for V to sit back in the well. That was the well of the mortal body. By passing through it, V could return to his own body.

And at this time, the game also gave the final choice.

Should I put everything aside, become a digital AI, and go outside the black wall?

Or return to your body and continue fighting for survival?

The right to choose is in the hands of the players.

What surprised Tang Baibai herself was that she did not hesitate for a moment and chose the latter without hesitation.

During the time that V and Silverhand were in contact, their relationship went from being incompatible to mutual understanding and trust. They fought all the way and resisted the absurd world. They influenced each other and until now, they have become a part of each other's soul.

And now, the part that belonged to Silverhand was relieved, and he made his own choice.

Tang Baibai didn't want to let this relationship down.

Confirm your selection.

V slowly sank into the Well of Mortality.

Johnny Silverhand, at the last moment, turned his back to V and looked at V in the well. Before her consciousness fell into chaos, he said goodbye:

"Goodbye, V. Never give up the fight."

Hearing these words whose tone was pulled by electromagnetic waves and seemed a little distorted, Tang Baibai's eyes became a little moist.

V sinks completely into the well and the game screen goes dark.

When the screen came back on, V woke up in his apartment.

From the news reports that served as background music, Tang Baibai learned that some time had passed since V entered the Arasaka Tower.

At this time, due to the leakage of confidential data of the mikoshi, the horrific truth behind the "Protect Your Soul" project was exposed. The seemingly immortal Digital Newborn was actually imprisoned in the soul prison by Arasaka and could not rest in peace. The many resources it attracted backfired one after another. Arasaka was exhausted and had to withdraw from Night City in embarrassment.

And V has taken control of his afterlife and has become a legendary figure among Night City mercenaries, the true king of the city.

Listening to the news about the Arasaka Space Station's 'Crystal Palace', V slowly walked to the window and looked at the still dim sky above his head. After a moment of silence, he put on Silverhand's jacket.

She walked out of the room and the hovercraft stopped at the door.

She first looked up at the gloomy and dark sky, then stretched out her hand and brushed across the intricate and luxurious decorations on the hovercraft, which made V hesitate to get on the vehicle.

But, in the end, V shook his head and boarded the hovercraft.

The camera moves along with the hovercraft.

It rose slowly, and when it reached the predetermined height, it began to cruise along the trajectory, passing over Night City, a city full of freedom and chaos, dirty desires and holy restraint, intrigue and sincerity coexisting.

Then, after a predetermined orbital cruise, the hovercraft slowly lowered its altitude and passed over a familiar street.

Tang Baibai hasn't reacted yet.

V has entered the door to the afterlife.

V became the mercenary king of Night City.

And today, she took on another commission and made a crazy plan for it.

In the blink of an eye, the scene changed.

V has stepped onto the dome.

Space is quiet, there is no echo here.

In this dark silence,

V was wearing a space suit and controlling the jet equipment behind him, rushing towards the magnificent Crystal Palace in front.

The starlight fell and reflected on her mask.

She slowly raised the gun in her hand and looked forward. Through the transparent mask made of composite material, her eyes were full of determination, and a ball of fire was burning in them.

Time goes slower and slower, as if it has stopped.

In the center of the camera is the eternal flame.

When Tang Baibai, who had been suppressing his emotions the whole time, saw this scene, his suppressed emotions could no longer be controlled and tears filled his eyes instantly!

"Never give up the fight, I did it!"

……

at noon.

If the day is divided evenly, then half of it is already over by now.

But today is the weekend.

Most of the tired workers or students have just gotten up after enjoying the indulgent time on holiday night.

The same goes for Mihoyo’s employees. After all, attending the celebration banquet for the successful release of “Night City” is quite tiring!

Lu Ling is one of them.

The moment she saw the sales of Night City rising step by step, she put aside her worries and began to concentrate on enjoying the pleasure of players breaking through the defense! She has become a qualified pleasure offender.

And the other side.

The status of the largest gaming forum in the country also quietly changed overnight.

Because the Youmi Cloud platform has integrated the community functions of MiGames, and on the platform's forum, players can also more conveniently share screenshots of their "Night City" games with just one click, and can even call out the platform panel in the game to share while playing.

It is extremely convenient for players to communicate and discuss.

What’s more, everyone here is a Night City player, so they have the most common language.

Naturally, players abandoned the game forums they originally used and switched to Youmi Cloud.

And the hot topic they are discussing now is obviously the ending shared by players who have completed Night City.

However, there are also some players who have not yet reached the end of the game and come to join in the fun.

For example, Zhang Chi has strong self-control. When he first started playing with Star Iron, he was able to resist the urge to explore new planets with Star Iron and go to sleep.

Last night, he also suppressed the urge to continue playing and quit "Night City", not letting the desire consume him. He is truly a cyber ring brother.

When he woke up today, a large number of players who had stayed up all night to fight had already completed the game on the forum.

With just a casual glance, Zhang Chi saw a lot of explosive headlines.

Zhang Chi, who was interested but a little worried about spoilers, flipped through the book roughly and only glanced at the title.

From these titles, he saw that most players expressed their dissatisfaction with the ending of "Night City", as if Mihoyo had done something that angered God and man.

"Huh? Is the ending of Night City that bad?"

Looking at the posts full of people expressing their deep feelings, Zhang Chi hesitated for a moment.

Curiosity was like a kitten scratching his heart. Zhang Chi, who had been silent all night, could no longer hold back.

He muttered, "A little bit of revealing is not revealing, but a spoiler is also revealing, which can also conform to this logic."

The hands were out of control, just like a cat's paw unable to resist the water glass that had been pushed over the edge of the table.

By the time Zhang Chi reacted, he had somehow clicked on a hot post about the devil's ending.

"It's already open, let's take a look..."

The author’s writing skills are not ideal, but his wild writing style is full of emotion without any technique.

Soon, Zhang Chi finished reading the original text and comments of the post, and fell into the same EMO state as the original poster, and began to doubt his life.

However, Zhang Chi recovered quickly because he could understand such an outcome.

Because in the cyberpunk worldview, companies are already giants with omnipotent powers. It is already difficult to muster the courage to resist, and it is even more difficult to succeed.

V was originally a small figure in Night City, weak and alone, not even enough to fill the gaps in Arasaka's teeth.

If you don't have any hope, you won't be disappointed.

Zhang Chi comforted himself in this way, trying to reduce the frustration in his heart.

but……

"Zhao! Fuck Arasaka, I won't accept it!"

"Hand, hand, you are such a slut!"

Zhang Chi deleted the post with a curse, and then started searching the forum again.

It wasn't because of this post that he didn't want to play the game anymore, but now he was a little addicted. He just couldn't believe it. Could it be that Night City didn't have a happy ending? !

And while searching, he actually found a post that had just been published.

The post is titled 'The perfect hidden ending of Night City, a tribute to V who never gave up the fight.'

Precisely because of this title, this post stands out among the many hot posts, and its number of comments is soaring at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The author of this post may want players to discover the hidden ending on their own and feel the touching experience.

He did not clearly state the conditions for achieving the hidden ending, nor the specific information about the ending in his post.

It just vaguely says that the hidden ending will definitely not disappoint everyone, and reminds players to think more when making the final decision and not to be impatient.

But his rhetoric is very similar to that of some beta testers who claim to have participated in the testing of a certain game.

The first thing I said was that the game was extremely good, but it was confidential and I couldn't go into details.

The question is, yes, but there is no evidence at all.

Such content was naturally regarded as a fishing post by players, and they asked for specific details under the post.

Zhang Chi was the same, but he also found details about the side quests and endings in other posts, so he replied to a thread below: "Master, which side quest is the hidden ending related to? Whose side quest is it specifically?"

Zhang Chi's original intention was to join in the fun and he didn't expect the other party to reply at all.

However, the other party obviously saw the players' tireless inquiries and replied: "2023, the past will return! I won't reveal more! Believe me, the hidden ending will definitely satisfy you! It's a real masterpiece, no explanation needed!"
