Chapter 499 403 [Slow Game] Also Has Amazing Charm

In the whole house, only Gobazo Mori lived in it.

But something strange did happen, that is, Gobazo Mori's left hand could create life that should not exist in this world.

When Yin Gu talked to him, Furukawa Hiroze found that there were many strange little people walking around in the yard.

It may not be appropriate to call them little people. They look more like some single-celled organisms described in biology books. Some are multiple round strings strung together, floating in the sky like kites.

Others walked past everyone with legs like small cards.

However, in the conversation between Yin Gu and the boy later,

Furukawa Hiroze suddenly woke up. It turned out that these things were invisible to ordinary people. Only people like Yin Gu and Gobazo could see them.

"They are actually insects." Yin Gu said to the boy.

"Insects?"

Yin Gu stretched out his hand and gestured to the boy.

"Suppose these four fingers are animals and the thumb is a plant.

Then the human is located here, on the middle finger farthest from the heart.

The further you go to the palm, the lower the creatures are."

"Going down, at the wrist, the blood vessels converge into one, right?"

"Yes." Gobazo Mori nodded.

"The bacteria and various microorganisms are located here."

"Going down further, it will be difficult to distinguish between animals and plants."

"But far ahead, there is another wonderful thing, which goes along the arm and then passes through the shoulder..."

Gin Gu's right hand went along the palm of his left hand to the shoulder, and then slid to the chest.

"And the life at this position is probably a bug.

It can also be called a green thing.

It is something close to the origin of life."

"Because it is close to the origin of life, its appearance and way of existence are very vague."

"So visible and invisible bugs appeared."

"Ah! There are also transparent ones, like ghosts." The boy agreed.

After hearing their descriptions and the beautiful drawings in the game, both Furukawa Hiroze and Yukitake Junna were somewhat immersed in this setting.

"It's really an interesting setting, it feels so magical."

Junna blinked and looked around, as if she was looking for the shadow of insects in the real world.

Furukawa Hiroze couldn't help but laugh, "Didn't Ginko just say that insects are invisible to humans?"

"What if I also have superpowers?" Junna covered her mouth and laughed.

"Wow, then you are so amazing."

...

The so-called ghosts are actually insects, some of which can even mimic human appearance.

After Ginko communicated with the boy, Furukawa Hiroze and Junna had a better understanding of insects.

Originally thought it was a nonsense setting, but now they are getting more and more curious.

The two gradually fell into such a world, and from the current point of view, it seems not as scary as Junna imagined.

After the conversation with the boy, some golden light appeared in the room.

So Furukawa Hiroze followed and explored the room.

As a result, as soon as the door of the room was opened, Xuezhu Junna was frightened and screamed.

Furukawa Hiroze turned the view and saw a girl floating on the ceiling of the house.

The girl was wearing an orange kimono and had short hair, which looked quite cute.

With the comfort of Furukawa Hiroze, Xuezhu Junna bravely poked her head out.

As soon as they met, the girl scolded Yin Gu for shamelessly running to someone else's house.

Yin Gu didn't indulge her and directly lit a insect-catching cigarette.

According to the game instructions, Furukawa Hiroze lit the insect-catching cigarette and moved closer to the girl.

Then a ball of white smoke came out from above, wrapped around the girl in the air, and pulled her to the ground.

"Damn! What is this?! What did you do to me?!"

Yin Gu explained, "This is also a kind of insect, but its characteristic is that if it encounters the same kind, it will wrap it up, but this kind of thing disappears very quickly."

After the girl fell to the ground, the smoke dissipated immediately.

The smoke made by Pokeni in this section is really lifelike. Smoke is actually a very difficult effect to make in the game, because its shape is not fixed but changes. It is not necessarily easier than making water and fire.

The white smoke made by Pokeni cannot achieve the transparent effect, so it looks very solid. Then the reason why we can see the better shape change is that the model is not changed, but the skeleton animation of the model itself is made. The first section is the generation of smoke, and the second section is the smoke turning into a big cocoon.

It's just that this cocoon wraps the girl up by automatic adaptation.

If you look closely, you will find that there is a certain degree of penetration.

But these are harmless. The most intuitive feeling for players is that a magical smoke is generated on the scene, and this smoke pulls the girl in the air to the ground.

So Furukawa Hiroze and Yukitake Junna couldn't help but let out a light exclamation.

Looking at each other, Junna said, "Such a cute girl, is she a bug?"

A green wine cup fell from the girl's body, only half of it to be exact, so Furukawa Hiroze walked over and picked it up.

Through the conversation with the girl, he learned the origin of the wine cup and accepted the task of [Restore the wine cup].

After accepting the task, an exclamation mark will light up on the small map, and there will also be such a small golden exclamation mark above the girl's head. If the task is completed, the exclamation mark will disappear and a certain reward will be obtained.

...

It is quite strange that only Gin Gu can see this girl, while Sen Luo, who has the left hand of God, cannot see her existence.

This can't help but give Furukawa Hiroze and Xuezhu Junna goose bumps.

After some investigation and collecting clues, Furukawa Hiroze finally solved the truth of what happened here.

It turned out that many years ago, when Sen Luo's grandmother Lianzi was still a girl, she encountered a [insect banquet] one night:

Insects sometimes mimic humans and invite guests to the banquet.

At that time, the insects will hand over the wine cup to humans. As long as the full wine is drunk, the person will be out of the law of biology.

Then they become [insects], that is, they become residents of that world.

Light wine is extracted from the light veins hidden in the dark underground.

Light veins have existed since the beginning of the world. Places close to light veins are full of greenery and vitality;

The land far away from them will become barren.

This also explains why this forest is abnormally green.

The purpose of this banquet is for the grandson who will be born in the future, who has the power to change the biological world, and hopes that Lianzi can take care of him for his whole life. After drinking the light wine, you can get the power of insects and a long life.

However, the banquet was forced to stop and was interrupted by a crow, and Lianzi did not finish the light wine.

However, it was because of this result that Lianzi was divided into two parts, one for insects and the other for humans.

The half of Lianzi who turned into an insect was the girl in orange kimono that Yin Gu saw in the house, while the other half continued to grow up according to the normal human life trajectory, then got married and had children, and finally had a grandson named Senra.

While accompanying her grandson, the human grandmother passed away. Before she died, she told Sen Luo to seal her left hand ability and never let outsiders know about his ability, hoping that he could live alone in this mountain in peace.

The other half of the grandmother who turned into a bug still protected Sen Luo in the form of a girl, but she was neither a complete human nor a complete bug, so Sen Luo could not see her at all.

The wine cup also broke into two halves, one half of which was in the girl Lian Zi's body.

The other half of the wine cup was hidden in Sen Luo's body,

but with the help of Sen Luo's power, the wine cup could be completed, so that Lian Zi could become a complete bug.

However, from then on, she would never be able to return to this world.

"What do you choose?" Yin Gu threw the question to the girl Lian Zi.

Lian Zi couldn't help crying, "Really? Really, as long as you do this... can you see Sen Luo?"

Lian Zi did not hesitate for too long, but chose to become a bug completely.

In order to be able to see Sen Luo.

...

Seeing this scene, Junna's heart was wet.

Although it is hard to describe how touching or heartbreaking it was, that little bit of warmth and touch slowly permeated into the heart like a drizzle from the sky.

Perhaps this is the love that grandma has for her grandson?

…

So Yin Gu told this to Sen Luo.

With the help of Sen Luo's ability, the wine cup was restored to its original state.

It became a emerald green wine cup with a beautiful luster, like an emerald.

After the two and a half wine cups were put together, golden light wine emerged from it, and the empty wine cup was instantly filled.

Lian Zi drank the complete light wine and truly became a "bug".

In front of Sen Luo, the figure of a girl suddenly appeared, which scared him.

That is, from this moment on, although Lian Zi had completely turned into a complete bug, Sen Luo could finally see her.

Although Lian Zi was no longer a human being and would not age because of this, from now on, the two of them could see each other.

For Sen Luo, who had lost his grandmother early, this incident really touched him.

And Lian Zi's wish to see Sen Luo was also fulfilled.

Perhaps this is the cause and effect of things, and it is finally fulfilled. You can also call it fate!

The story ends with a green again, but no one has ever heard of the rumors about the left hand of God again. . . . . . .

...

The exclamation mark in this place disappeared, and the task was completed.

Yin Gu received a gift from two people, that is, the wine cup. After having the wine cup, it is easy to get light wine.

The game is actually very short here, and the process is very simple. It is nothing more than investigating back and forth, looking for past memories and truths in the house.

But when everything was put to a perfect end, Furukawa Hiroze and Xuezhu Junna were wrapped in warmth in their hearts.

Although it was light and there was not much emotional ups and downs, the kinship between Lian Zi and Sen Luo across species and time and space moved them.

Although this kind of touching feeling is weak, it has a vitality that cannot be underestimated. It is like the light wine in the game, spreading in the heart.

"What kind of game is this?"

Furukawa Hiroze couldn't help asking.

...

After exploring this place, he made sure that there were no extra tasks, so Furukawa Hiroze walked to the next place.

When he looked back, Lianzi and Senluo were still living here.

You can also talk to them, just like visiting close friends you have dated before. This feeling is so comfortable and intimate, as if you have really been with them for a while, and after fulfilling the wishes of two people, each of them continues according to their original life.

They are not just NPCs who give you tasks. After you leave, they also have their own life trajectories and their own lives to continue.

A sense of the real world.

"Wow," Furukawa Hiroze was able to appreciate the power of this game at this point.

...

After leaving Gobaku Town, Furukawa Hiroze took a look at the small map. After completing the first task, there were many small golden question marks on it.

Probably all missions or stories that need to be explored?

Furukawa Hiroze thought, and then continued to walk towards the nearest question mark.

Not far away.

A man sat alone by the vast sea.

The sea water that Pokeni can make is actually quite limited now, and it is impossible to swim in it. However, through the 2D one-sided drawing method, it gives people a feeling of the sea in an animation.

There was a big exclamation mark on the man's head.

So Ginko walked over and talked to him.

He looked at the place name: Sea of ​​Illusion.

The man began to recall the past, which started two and a half years ago. At that time, the man and his wife separated by accident.

Two and a half years ago, the man was fired, and he had no choice but to return to his hometown, and his wife followed him.

His wife Michihi did not expect that her husband's hometown would be such a poor and remote environment, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her words.

The two people quarreled because of this, and the man named Shirou did not seem to expect that such a precious lady would be willing to come here with him.

So he was angry and wanted to send his wife back.

After packing the luggage, the two set off on the boat.

There was silence along the way, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

At this time, the sea surface gradually began to fog up, and the fog became thicker and thicker, making it almost impossible to see anything.

At the same time, the man saw many strips of sea snake-like things flowing densely in the sea, but after a while, his and his wife's boats were separated by this thing, and the distance between the two boats was unknowingly pulled apart by a considerable distance.

The man desperately shouted to his wife's boat, asking the boatman on the boat to drive the boat over, but the boat didn't know why, and didn't obey the boatman at all.

Helplessly, the man had to let them abandon the boat and swim to his side.

But in the fog, the wife could only hear her husband's voice, but couldn't find any direction.

Then the waves surged, completely separating the man and his wife.

When he woke up, the man was lying on a beach, but his wife was nowhere to be seen.

It was from then on that the man developed the habit of watching the sea. Although the local residents always regarded him as a weirdo, he himself did not seem to care. Day after day, he just did his own thing.

Now his wife may have passed away, what on earth is he doing? After listening to the man's words, Yin Gu caught a key problem, that is, the thing that looks like a sea snake. His professional sensitivity immediately reminded him of insects such as fog snakes.

Looking at the vast sea in front of him, Yin Gu was thoughtful.

…

The game can no longer continue here. Even if you talk to the surrounding environment and NPCs, you can only get some information about Shilang.

The information that was revealed later was the result of Furukawa Hiroze's travel outside.

A few days later, Furukawa returned to this place again.

Found that there was a dark-skinned girl next to the man.

Can you believe that the NPC in the game can actually carry out its own branch?

It's really a long time to see. It's the first time that Furukawa Hiroze has seen such a game setting. The time in it is not set in vain. Even if Ginko doesn't join, every character in the game will live according to his own established trajectory.

So sometimes you find that there is no task or the task cannot be carried out, it may be just because these characters have not experienced the necessary things.

After another conversation, Furukawa Hiroze learned that-

It turned out that during the time when Ginko was away, Shirou helped the girl and was very popular in the small fishing village, so he planned to settle down.

The girl liked Shirou very much and seemed to be full of resistance to Ginko's arrival, and she wanted him to leave quickly.

She was afraid that Ginko would take Shirou away.

As a result, on the second day, some strange phenomena appeared on the sea, just like when the man took his wife away by boat that year, there were many dense black in the sea water.

Those insects that looked a little scary can only be seen by Ginko and men.

There is a saying called [A thousand years in the sea, a thousand years in the mountains]

Ginko explained to him, "It means that a snake that lives in the sea for a thousand years and then lives in the mountains for another thousand years will turn into a dragon."

"Although it is a legend, there is a situation that is very similar to this sentence."

"At first glance, the insects that swarm in the sea and the insects that live in the mountains both look like snakes, and there seems to be no difference."

"Once the time comes, the insects in the mountains will go down the mountain, and the insects in the sea will swim to the coast.

The two sides will meet on the sea.

After a thousand days, they will return to the coast together and merge into one insect.

But when they meet, a thick fog will appear on the sea."

"In that fog, only those who want to live on land can see and return to the land."

After Ginko finished speaking, Furukawa Hiroze and Yukitake Junna were both stunned.

Because they soon understood-

The last time the man and his wife took a boat across the sea, his wife got lost in the thick fog, which means that his wife was completely heartbroken at that time, so she lost her direction and could no longer see the land or the man.

…

Ginko said that there was still a chance to see his wife, and he was willing to ferry Shirou to the sea in order to fulfill his wish.

However, he had only one request, that is, the man had to think about coming back, because there were people who missed him here.

His wife might have died long ago.

With the dream of meeting again, Shirou asked Ginko to take him to the sea.

So Furukawa Hiroze rowed the boat and led him to the sea.

Sure enough, a thick fog appeared on the sea.

Not long after rowing, a small boat appeared in the fog.

Shirou immediately became excited.

When he stepped on the boat, he found his wife sleeping on it. After waking her up, he hugged his wife tightly in his arms.

Both of them burst into tears.

But his wife felt a little strange. Where did Shirou go in the past three days? Why did he leave her alone?

Shirou's expression froze, because it was not three days. His wife had been missing for three years.

In other words, the passage of time in the fog is different from that outside.

However, this time Shirou decided not to part with his wife, so he regretted the words he said to his wife before and apologized to her.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say such excessive words."

"Yes... I said excessive words, too." The wife sighed and gently stroked Shirou's hand.

"I also want to see your hometown." The wife said.

"Okay, okay, let's go, come here with me." Shirou stood up and held his wife's hand.

But at this moment, Ginko, who was blocked by the fog and became hazy behind him, slowly spoke:

"Wait a minute, which way is this?"

The man was suddenly stunned.

"Can you still see the land now?" Ginko asked calmly in a gentle voice.

"Don't worry, it's very clear, look, it's here."

In Ginko's perspective, that is, Furukawa Hiroze, Shirou pointed to another direction, which was not the land at all.

Yukitake Junna and Furukawa Hiroze couldn't help but jump in their hearts.

"This is..."

"It's time to stop. The place you want to go back to is here..." Ginko pointed the direction and told Shirou that the wife in his arms was no longer human.

She should be just an illusion created by the insects now.

At this moment, the hand of Shirou's wife began to turn into a bubble, rising up and turning into smoke.

And her gorgeous kimono fell on the boat.

...

The sea surface was turbulent and fog was everywhere.

And in such a fog, there seemed to be a huge figure like a multi-legged insect rising into the sky.

It's just that people can't see it.

When Ginko brought Shirou back to the shore, the dark-skinned girl immediately ran over and hugged Shirou tightly.

Originally, the two people left for only two or three hours, but the villagers on the shore told them that they had actually disappeared for more than a month.

Then the two found their wife's boat on the shore.

The dark-skinned girl found a gorgeous kimono in it.

When she put on the kimono of his wife whom Shiro once loved deeply, Shiro sighed with some relief, "It's so beautiful."

"It doesn't matter anymore."

This sentence is like a farewell to the past of himself and his wife.

…

After the mission [From the Sea] was completed, Furukawa Hiroze and Yukitake Junna always felt bad.

There was a feeling of wanting to cry but not having tears.

It's hard to say whether the ending of this mission is good or bad, but it's very sad.

…

However, after the mission is over, Shiro should start his own life.

Furukawa Hiroze blessed in his heart and continued to go to other places on the question mark on the map of Qingda University.

Stories like this are still waiting for him to discover, experience, and complete.

The game Mushishi.

The overall game rhythm gives people a slow feeling, and you don't even think it's a game.

Compared to those action and fighting games, Mushishi is really an alternative.

The originally impetuous heart slowly becomes quiet in the world of Mushishi.

This feeling is really magical.

…

Moreover, among the insect masters, the male protagonist is often not the main character in the story itself. There is a warm and touching story behind each mission, and they are the protagonist of the story.

Yin Gu is just a bug master, a puzzle solver, a passerby, and a witness...

Many of the past pokeni games were depressing.

But this time I was very healed.

I have an urge to cry.

But the feeling of being nourished inside is really moving.

"It's really terrible... How could there be such a strange game?" Yuzuki Junna said with a sigh and a smile while wiping her tears. "It's obviously such a slow rhythm and there are no ups and downs, but it makes people unable to help but move. ”

"Yes." Furukawa Hirose felt for the first time that [Slow Game] also has amazing charm.

And it is probably the only one in the world that can make the game so slow and make players feel extremely warm and deeply shocked by the game.

This company pokeni is simply amazing.

…
