So how exactly did you add me as a friend?
This was the question that Toyama Yoruichi was most interested in at that moment.
The cursor bounced around in the air for a while.
At first, I thought that Mingzhi was thinking about how to explain, but when the text appeared, I realized that it was simply because he was talking too much.
First, you should know that this game allows players on the same team to chat privately.
"Relying solely on dialogue can lead to confusion with NPC conversations in certain scenarios, affecting the plot's direction."
"I simply unblocked part of this illegally disabled feature."
Secondly, while Noah's Ark is indeed powered by artificial intelligence, it is ultimately not a programmer.
"Especially since this game was developed by Hiroki's father, Mr. Murakami, a veteran programmer."
Therefore, Noah's Ark cannot modify the game's underlying logic.
"To prevent it from being banned again, I've linked this feature to an NPC I just saw."
"As long as that NPC isn't completely removed from the game, we can use the friend function normally."
Yoruichi Toyama really burst out laughing this time.
Given that Noah's Ark can't modify the game program, but it can certainly see their conversations, including the witty sarcasm and the blatant mockery, it has already silently received them.
I don't know if it was angry, but it pretended to be dead and didn't say a word for a while.
Yoichi Toyama picked up his pen and started writing in the chat box.
Do you know who that NPC is?
"Mr. Sherlock Holmes." The choice of words was wise and polite, showing considerable respect for the great detective.
"I just heard it from Mr. AI. But I think, since it's a game, NPCs won't just appear out of nowhere."
It has to be said that this approach is the proper way to deal with this game right now.
They're not here for an immersive experience; they're here to successfully complete a level.
Therefore, there is no need to apply real-world logic to everything.
Myoji's subsequent account confirmed this.
Like Yoruichi Toyama, he witnessed Jack the Ripper committing a crime as soon as he entered the game, and like Yoruichi, he failed to catch up with him.
"So I knocked twice on every door and window facing the street he ran off on."
Twice?
Just as Yoruichi Toyama was about to ask a question, she suddenly realized something.
This is similar to playing an RPG game where you have to talk to all the NPCs multiple times in order to explore hidden storylines.
Some NPCs only have one line over and over again.
However, some new information will emerge after multiple conversations.
Although two trials weren't enough, at least we knocked on every door on the street twice...
This is really annoying!
"And the result? What were the findings?"
"It's nothing. The game description is well-written. When I typed in a second time, the response was almost completely different from the first time, and the response was much more impatient."
They're all different? How can you be sure...?
As if answering a question in Yoruichi Toyama's mind, Akechi's message popped up again.
The only thing they had in common was that not a single resident showed up.
In other words, no more NPCs have been created.
For the average player, if someone as meticulous as Mingzhi were to knock on the doors and windows several times, they would conclude that "there are no important clues here."
As for Mingzhi, it's clear that the production team wasn't meticulous about every detail.
This is, after all, a virtual reality game with a massive scene; the modeling must be incredibly expensive!
Schindler Group's money doesn't grow on trees, so why would they spend it on something so trivial that doesn't enhance the gaming experience?
Therefore, the homeless man with the accordion who suddenly appears on the street is obviously an important NPC.
That guy, Mingzhi, is incredibly cunning!
Thinking this, Yoruichi Toyama chuckled.
"I told you you miscalculated, didn't I?" He said to Noah's Ark, ignoring whether it was still pretending to be dead.
"How can you force all players to solo dungeons?"
"We should force everyone to form teams."
"There's a saying that goes, 'Too many chickens don't lay eggs, and too many people lead to chaos.' Take Zhuge Liang, for example. Wasn't he amazing? Even if you sent him to Xicheng with four young musicians and eight old soldiers, he still couldn't pull off the Empty City Stratagem..."
How do you know I didn't have someone team up with me?!
Noah's Ark was clearly forced to open its mouth.
If it doesn't say something soon, it fears it will learn to recite the names of dishes before Yoruichi Toyama or Akechi even finish the game.
"I didn't completely ban team formation; I just switched the options for whether or not to form a team. So..."
"You're really mean, aren't you!"
Yoruichi Toyama understood.
The method it uses is very simple: those who choose to team up will be replaced with solo players, while those who intend to solo will team up.
Ignoring others, Conan would definitely team up with his Ran sister.
For Conan, soloing is no problem, but Ran would definitely be eliminated.
Those who choose to solo...
Based on Yoruichi Toyama, at least two people are confirmed to be involved: Hakuba Saguru and Hattori Heiji.
If they get put on the same team...
How lively must it have been along the way?
Putting all that aside, it doesn't feel like Noah's Ark's actions were intended as revenge against the social elites, but rather...
Are you screening?
Is this a test for the elites under the so-called "Japanese education system"? ...
"Hey, Yuanshan!"
Just as I was lost in thought, a voice suddenly rang out.
