Chapter 74 Safe Zone 1 (5) - Tracking Millions of Points
This feature is a bit new; I haven't seen it before. Ning Shu clicked "Yes," and then a small window showed what the glasses prop looked like now.
There are two options at the bottom of the small window: [System Random Change] and [Custom].
Ning Shuxian clicked on the first option, and a dialog box popped up: "[System randomly changes item style, confirm?]", and clicked "Yes".
The glasses in the small window kept changing styles. When it stopped, Ning Shu saw a pair of glasses that looked like sunglasses.
Thinking about going out, and with the sun so strong, Ning Shu decided to use sunglasses. She confirmed it again, and a dialog box popped up on the screen.
[Pay 10 points to change the item's appearance. Confirm?]
She knew the game wouldn't be so kind; it turns out it costs points! And 10 points at that! What happened? Did her points just fall from the sky?
Ning Shu angrily clicked "No," and kept exiting until the interface displayed the options for "[System Random Change]" and "[Custom]".
Ning Shu, who originally wanted to quit immediately, hesitated for a moment. The prop had a number on the bottom, and maybe others had the same prop, so it was necessary to change the prop's form.
She clicked on "Customize" and saw several options appear at the bottom of the small window.
These are [Color], [Size], [Style], and [Custom Style].
Ning Shu clicked through each item and found that this customization was based on spending points per item.
For example, adjusting the "color" option costs 5 points, and if you select every option, the cost becomes very high.
Conversely, if you only choose one option, you will get fewer points than if the system randomly changes the selection.
She paid special attention to the "Custom Style" option and discovered that it actually allows you to draw the shape of the props yourself.
The system will materialize a pen for her, which she can use to draw in the designated area on the panel. This is perfect for Ning Shu, who has some drawing skills.
The panel can also be 3D rendered and rotated 360 degrees, allowing players to depict the details of props and make them more exquisite and realistic.
Ning Shu drew a design for the glasses herself, and after confirmation, the system automatically adjusted its parameters to make it reasonable, maintaining the original color and size of the prop.
Ning Shu spent 5 points to change the appearance of the glasses. When she received them, she thought they were very good and went out wearing them.
Ning Shu didn't change it into sunglasses because it would cost an extra 5 points, which she couldn't bear to spend.
Once outside, the sights became more complex. The glasses prop was very considerate; for the same thing, it only gave a hint once and then never gave another.
When the prompt was made, the font and the leading lines became semi-transparent, to avoid obstructing Ning Shu's view.
She wasn't too concerned about the objects indicated by the glasses, but she was puzzled when she saw that the players on the road all had numbers above their heads.
The main point is that these numbers are always there, unlike objects which disappear after being displayed once.
If she keeps staring at the numbers, they will become clearer.
If she doesn't look at it much, the numbers will gradually fade, but when she turns her attention back to them, the numbers will become clear again.
This suggests that these numbers are quite important, but Ning Shu doesn't know what they represent.
With these questions in mind, Ning Shu drew a map while observing.
She felt that after using this prop, she had a lot of questions in her mind.
Finally, after two hours, Ning Shu got tired of shopping. She found a beverage shop, sat down, ordered a drink, and spent 1 point.
She was sitting on a chair outside the beverage shop, which had a glass door. When she turned to look inside, she saw her reflection in the glass door.
She also saw two numbers above her head—92.
She thought about it for a moment. After leaving the dungeon, she had 95 points. She spent 2 points in the morning to buy a set meal and just spent another 1 point to order a drink, so she had 92 points left.
So, the numbers above those people's heads are all points?
She turned to look at the people around her, and almost everyone had one to three digits above their heads. This range of numbers did indeed resemble an integral.
Ning Shu planned to go back and check on Meng Jie and Cheng Chuan to confirm things.
Just as she was finishing her drink, she suddenly noticed that a passerby had a string of numbers on his head!
Yes, it was a string of numbers, and those numbers were all in bold uppercase and gleaming with gold!
This string of exaggerated numbers almost made the other person feel inferior. Just how exaggerated was it?
To put it simply, the difference is like the difference between bold font size 1 and regular font size 5 in a document. The key difference is that the glasses even added a golden light effect to the other party.
This special status is evident.
She dropped her drink and stared wide-eyed at the person who walked past her.
This… She quickly counted the string of numbers above the other person's head, 7… 7 digits? Hundreds… millions of points?
Now, Ning Shu realized that she might have misunderstood the meaning of these numbers.
Millions of points! That's something only the most skilled and top-tier players can achieve.
She decided to follow them and observe further, hoping she might be wrong.
When Ning Shu followed, she found the golden light too dazzling and muttered under her breath, "Please, can you remove this golden light effect? It's really too bright."
As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed that the golden light of the numbers in her glasses had disappeared. The numbers were still golden, but no longer dazzling.
It turns out the props can understand what I'm saying; that's an amazing feature!
Ning Shu followed behind the other person, constantly comparing the numbers above their head with those of passersby.
The passerby was over 1.8 meters tall, wearing a white casual shirt and khaki casual pants, with white sneakers on his feet, looking like a youthful and energetic male college student.
Ning Shu looked at the person's back and felt that it looked familiar. She thought it might be her imagination, since she didn't know anyone here.
After following them for quite some time, she noticed that they had stopped in front of a shop that sold something she didn't know, so she stopped as well.
Ning Shu thought for a moment. What if the other person thought she had bad intentions because she was following them around?
She couldn't very well tell the other person that she wanted to test the prop's effect.
Putting aside the fact that I can't casually reveal the purpose of the props, even if I did, people probably wouldn't believe me. It's too risky to do that, otherwise I might get caught red-handed.
Ning Shu didn't bother to find out why the other person had stopped. She turned around and walked back. The "Creation Map" would automatically generate the path she had taken.
She had to go back to the beverage shop and continue drawing in other directions from there.
As she turned a corner, someone grabbed her wrist from behind and slammed her against the corner wall.
