Being an NPC is Fine Too

Ye Xing never expected that he, someone who rarely played games, would apply for a job at a game company after graduation. What he expected even less was that he would become a real-life NPC in the...

Chapter 72 Discussion Forum Players

Ye Xing had no intention of fighting with the Linshi Research Institute. He always put the treatment of zombies first.

Yesterday, after observing the condition of the patients, he went out on patrol with the captain and captured three more zombies.

This is not a good thing. It proves that the first generation of infected people are still wandering around and may have hurt someone.

Most of the newly caught infected people recently were wearing deliveryman uniforms. It was obvious that they took the risk of delivering food and ended up killing themselves, which made people feel a little sympathetic.

"Delivering takeout" is the most thrilling and exciting game among the citizens. Once you are infected, there is really no going back.

Ye Xing expressed his regret for these people. You know, there is a limited number of deliverymen. Although players will be drawn to fill the gap if there are fewer, it is still difficult to get a number now.

Even though this is not officially allowed, he still wants to say: It would be great to rent out this account, you can just sit back and wait for the money to come in and gain experience for free.

Compared to running on walls and delivering food while being chased by zombies, lying in the treatment room and receiving treatment is naturally much more boring. These players will probably choose to buy an "Out-of-Body" card in the mall.

That’s right. Ever since the company adopted Ye Xuan’s suggestion last time, the mall has launched the economical “Soul Out-of-Body” card, which allows players to enter and exit the dungeon freely.

After all, the "shell" left in the script also needs a program to manage it. It would be a loss if it was completely free, right?

It is impossible for a capitalist to allow himself to lose money easily.

Ye Xing was worried as he saw the increasing number of new zombies. The treatment room was so small. It looked quite big when they first moved in, but it was still not enough when it was actually used.

What should we do? We can't ask the search team to approve a room for them to use.

After a long period of treatment, some patients with good physical conditions have almost recovered and currently show no symptoms of recurrence.

Ye Xuan felt that no one liked to be hospitalized, especially in this kind of "ward" with a large dormitory bed. Several people who were difficult to discipline wanted to go home, and the atmosphere in the treatment room was affected.

When I look at them now, it's like my own high school dean looking at those troublesome students. He was so angry but couldn't hit them, and he was also worried that they would lead others astray.

The dean of studies could at least call the parents, but what about him? He could only try to calm the patient's already fragile emotions, and when there was no other way, he used acupuncture needles to intimidate him.

But the effect of scaring people was not as good as before. Even if he was an "irregular" doctor, it was impossible for him to really hurt the patient.

The patients are getting more and more noisy every day. Do they still need treatment? If that's the case, then we'd have to tear down the treatment room directly.

Ye Xuan felt something was wrong. Logically, most of the players should have left the script, and the NPCs in their company were usually easy to fool and shouldn't be so difficult to deal with.

As soon as he came out of the game, he logged into the Youmeng official forum, intending to get some information from it.

Real NPC: The days of being taken care of by real NPC【Popular】

1L LZ Who said zombie characters were useless in the first place? Now, I am enjoying the meticulous care of a real NPC guy, and I can get close to him every day!

2L Another crazy one, who can be a fan of other people, a real NPC, haha, he coaxed me for half an hour before I was coaxed (dog head)

3L The two above are both so weird... But is what they say true? Me too, zombie card...

4L It’s true. I can testify! I was there too!

5L Wait until you catch your breath upstairs before you talk. I’m almost suffocating just looking at you.

6L Where is the host? Can you tell me more about the details?

7L LZ I'm here, I just went to have a drink of water and didn't expect the post to be approved so quickly. My character was walking peacefully on the street, but things happen unexpectedly, and I was pounced on by a hideous zombie without paying attention.

8L Let's get to the point! Did I slack off during work to read this post just to see these? If you don't talk about real NPCs, I will report it as a wrong version!

9L I second the motion.

10L Wait a minute, I think what the OP said is also good. I haven't even seen what zombies look like in my head until now. The news photoshopped them too much.

When Ye Xuan saw this, he thought that it was very likely that a player had shared his experience in the treatment room. Although there was not much fun in the treatment room and there was not much to do except making requests and making unreasonable demands, he overlooked an important factor.

He himself is a popular real-life NPC, a wealth code that can attract a large number of players.

It is not difficult to see from the company's several arrangements that his popularity now far exceeds that of other real-life NPCs in the same industry. He can be said to be a leader in the industry and a well-deserved "wealth code."

However, how come even “Password” himself doesn’t have much “wealth”?

Ye Xuan planned to continue reading that post to find out the reason why the patients in the treatment room were causing trouble.

15L LZ Anyway, I was caught by the search team and taken to a detention center, where I was detained for about two or three days. During that time, I played music games, such as "howl with the zombies". I could also hang up when I got tired of playing, which was pretty good.

16L I read a news report that a real-life NPC guy played a Chinese medicine practitioner and cooperated with the search team, so did Loulou meet him there?

17L LZ Yes! I look better in person than in the live studio!

18L The appearance in the game can be created by shaping it. Do you believe this?

19L The OP didn't say anything exaggerated, he was just comparing it with a real NPC himself, and there are people who would argue with him?

20L Ahem, we’ve gone off topic. Weren’t we supposed to talk about how I took care of the OP?

21L LZ Oh, yes, that's right. One day, a real NPC guy - let's call him "Chinese medicine" from now on, is a character in this issue, everyone knows him, right?

22L Of course, this is the first extended script. I have seen him in my neighboring city, but my role is the villain... He looks so fierce in the script (being threatened)

Ye Xuan paused when he saw this. He originally thought that the villains were all NPCs, but he didn't expect it to be players.

Doesn't that mean he has left a psychological shadow on some players? It can't be that serious, is he really that fierce?

He thought it was not his fault, but that the acupuncture needles in traditional Chinese medicine were too scary.

Well, that's absolutely true.

The next few dozen levels of the post were mostly discussing their own scripts, which was quite off topic. I took a rough look and found that some players said they were also in the treatment room, but I'll leave it to the original poster to talk about it.

The host of that post has also been missing for dozens of floors, probably because of something that happened three times.

57L LZ I'm back. Have you ever missed... what happened to this building? Why is it so crooked that it looks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa?!

58L I finally waited for you, luckily I didn’t give up ~ Why did you come just now, we have already finished a round of chatting.

59L LZ I have something to do, I don’t mean to stand you up, okay, I will continue.

Next, the poster recounted the entire experience of receiving treatment in the search team, which was a little more detailed than what Ye Xuan knew.

Ye Xing looked at the daily tasks of the patient characters and felt that it was not the players’ fault for making random requests.

If you want to blame someone, blame the planner. Their department may really have a grudge against him, otherwise they wouldn't have come up with such a task.

Why, why can I gain experience points even by making the attending physician angry?

So, when he was so angry that he threatened the patient, they were actually still secretly happy about their increased experience points?

This is too outrageous. Can we still be good colleagues?

Ye Xing felt that this was a targeting. After all, everyone in the company knew that he was the Chinese medicine doctor in the script, and the planners who were most closely related to the plot must be very clear about it.

He couldn't get an explanation. They could have said that they had already written the mission setting before Ye Xing drew this role.

Yes, Ye Xuan always felt that the planners disliked him.

Even when eating in the cafeteria, I would grab the last chicken leg before him.

He is not the kind of person who would tell tales to his superiors. If he is targeted in the game, he will find a way to resolve the situation.

And it's not some deep hatred, it's just that the difficulty of the game has been secretly increased in design. As long as it doesn't rise to the third dimension and doesn't actually affect his interests, then everything will be fine.

Ye Xuan had received care and tolerance from many people in his previous life.

He also hoped that he could be more tolerant of others, and besides, this was not a big deal.

121L LZ The above is my life in the treatment room recently. Friends who have the conditions can go and see it for themselves.

122L I beg the OP to start a live broadcast... Although the official also has a real-life NPC guy's plot recording, I can't see enough of it. It's basically all from his perspective. I also want to see other characters'.

123L I want to see it too. One of the anchors I follow contacted another player who had contact with real NPCs in the script last time and asked if he could sell the other party’s account to him. He was rejected. Hahahahaha.

124L Everyone cherishes their accounts. Last time, someone who got the role of a delivery man rented out his account, and was later reported and permanently banned ()

125L LZ does not encourage you to do these things. This is expressly prohibited by the official. After all, our "Dream Travel" is a game that relies on luck.

126L The original poster has revealed the truth. I have never won a script with real NPCs. It will only make me cry if I say more.

Ye Xuan knew that he was popular among gamers, but he did not expect that someone would use him as a selling point to illegally rent and sell game accounts.

His pity for the zombie delivery man just now was just a casual thought. If he really found any violation, he would naturally report it to his superiors.

The game "Dream Travel" has never been fair, and its reality is well reflected in this aspect.

Different identity backgrounds, like different origins in reality, can only be determined by fate.

Even the most expensive game props cannot change this. No matter how much money you have, if you want to "exchange fate" with others, you will take great risks and it will not be recognized.

This is the reality of this game, a slightly cruel reality.
