Alien paradise

"These are the play points I give to you, you can also think of them as chips." The host continued, "Although the park will not restrict your actions, each game will still arrange a reward task, based on your completed performance. , give corresponding points. Now you can open the redemption interface and select what you need - as long as you stare at the numbers and say it silently, the interface will automatically appear."

Turn on.

Zhang Zhiyuan recited silently in his mind, and then he saw the numbers enlarged and turned into a translucent table.

So...is this really just a game?

He quickly scanned the exchange items on the table - compared to the mature games on the market, the items that can be exchanged in the park are diverse and messy, as if they were improvised. It is divided into two major categories, one is [Combat Auxiliary], the first one is the resurrection scroll (limited), worth 1000; the second is the healing card, worth 750; the rest are swords, armor and the like Equipment, ranging from 150 to 50. The other [assisted living] has everything, including pressure cookers, portable liquefied gas, lighters, fishing spears... and even thermite packs.

"This is no different from before, right?" Anthony muttered, "The enemies we encountered last time were all armed with guns. Can't we make something more powerful?"

The moderator did not respond, as if this was an issue beyond the preset options.

"Maybe there is, but we don't have enough points, so we may not be able to see it." Zhou Zhi whispered, "Game designers usually consider the progressive nature of difficulty and do not put powerful weapons in the initial stage, or they hope that we focus on strategy... …”

"Okay, then I'll choose a full set of armor and a crossbow, and a dagger as a spare weapon!" The Russian didn't bother to argue.

The host nodded, raised his right hand, and a few pieces of equipment appeared out of thin air and fell to the ground.

Zhang Zhiyuan was amazed by this scene, but others seemed to be used to it.

After a round of exchange, everyone was more or less armed, except Zhang Zhiyuan who did not use any points.

"I guess... I don't have to use them now?"

"Of course, you can apply to me at any time." The host nodded.

"Then I'll skip the exchange first." Zhang Zhiyuan let out a long sigh secretly. It wasn't that he had a plan in mind, but that he rarely played games and didn't know what to exchange for.

If I had known this, I would have let Choi Jung Eun participate in the paradise games.

"So everyone has finished changing?"

"Wait!" Zhang Zhiyuan asked again, "Mr. Host, can you take off your mask and let everyone see what you look like? I have no other ideas, I just think this mask is weird, even if it is a virtual appearance It’s better than this thing.”

Others nodded.

The host smiled, reached out and took off his mask.

However, underneath the mask is still a Sichuan Opera mask, but the color and texture have changed.

Zhang Zhiyuan was speechless.

"Now that you are all ready, please follow me." The host didn't say much, as if the mask was his original appearance. He turned around and opened the side door and walked into another small room.

This wooden house is very bright, with several oil lamps. There is a square table in the center of the room, with a large stack of manuscript papers piled on the table.

"What is this?" the American asked curiously.

Zhang Zhiyuan stepped forward and picked up a piece of paper first. He saw that it was full of words, but he didn't recognize any of them.

"Case file." The host said unhurriedly, "This time you will become criminal hunters and solve a huge case. The details of the case and all the clues are recorded on these pages. From The moment you walk into this house, the paradise game has officially begun.”

Everyone looked at each other.

"Is this... the beginning?"

"No more tips?"

"Who knows what's written here?" Joe James waved the manuscript paper in his hand, "I can't even understand how to hunt!"

"Wait a minute, I seem to have seen something just now..." Zhou Zhi suddenly said, "Where is it... By the way, in this column, you should also take a look at the row of life assistance in the redemption interface."

After his reminder, Zhang Zhiyuan also turned to this item. Under a pile of daily necessities, he suddenly discovered something called "Translation Tofu", which sold for 200 points.

"Boy, you are of some use." Anthony chuckled, "Looking at its description, you should be able to gain the ability to translate by eating it."

"Isn't that right? Shouldn't language interoperability be the default?" Joe James frowned, "Who would make a game with a set of bad languages!"

"I can't change it. Now I only have 100 points left." Jason Taylor, a new member of the game, expressed regret.

"If the game design is like this, we can only follow it." Naruko Asahara suddenly said, "200 may seem like a lot, but we don't need to change everyone. Don't forget, this mission is completed by us together. ."

"Then... I'll do it." Zhou Zhi said proactively, "I still have 500 points that are useless."

"One may not be enough, so I might as well consider one." Zhang Zhiyuan said immediately. He has noticed one detail, that is, no one seems to know that the theme of the game will be related to solving crimes. Both Joe James and the Jason Taylor he brought seemed quite unfamiliar with these things. But he is different. As early as when the park sent out the invitation letter, the conditions for participation were stated in the letter. Since the other party can send a targeted email to the police station mailbox, it means that the new round of games is likely to use the ability of criminal investigation.

This can explain two things. First, the invitation letters received by everyone are different. At least the invitation letters marked with "outstanding investigation and detection skills" have only been received by the police station.

In this way, the bureau's efforts to fabricate his character background would not be in vain, and he would not be deliberately targeted by suspects.

The second is to basically confirm that Paradise is a neutral organization and is not biased towards Joe James.

"Are you sure, buddy?" The American glanced at him, "After buying this, you can only choose between weapons and equipment or healing cards."

"You have also seen the environment we are in. We will definitely have to enter the city for action later. If only one person knows how to communicate and the others are hesitant, it will definitely arouse suspicion." Zhang Zhiyuan deliberately did not go in the direction of solving the case, "Besides, How long will it take for him alone to see so many files? I think Ms. Asahara is right. Since we are a team, we should divide the work and cooperate. If you are responsible for the force, I can provide logistics."

"It's up to you." Qiao James didn't hesitate anymore.

Soon Zhang Zhiyuan ate the translated tofu and looked at the file again. The handwriting on the manuscript seemed to begin to twist and change, and was finally reorganized into Chinese that he fully understood!

"How is it?" asked the others.

"It's... effective." Zhang Zhiyuan murmured, but the surprise in his heart was far more than that. He knew that it was definitely not a simple translation, because as long as he blinked, he would find that the manuscript itself had not changed at all, and the handwriting was not a picture that appeared in front of his eyes, but a transformation that was automatically carried out by his subconscious mind after he fully understood the words! In other words, he truly understood the language in an instant!

Even a simulator game...can't do this, right?

Zhang Zhiyuan couldn't help but steal a glance at the host.

What kind of organization is this paradise? Why do we have such amazing technology? If this learning technology is used in education and industry, it will probably immediately set off a new development revolution. However, they are just using it to make money from rich people, which really makes him a bit incomprehensible.

Zhang Zhiyuan vaguely realized that perhaps the park itself was far more important than the case - this was no longer something that the police station or the Interpol agency could deal with. He had to remember everything he saw and wait until the game was over to convey it go out!

Now, his first priority is to play his role well.
