What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter 477 Hot (Part 1)

Citon City.

At the home of Xia Libing's third uncle and aunt, Xia Nianqing, who has just entered junior high school, and her brother Xia Tinglei, who is still in the fourth grade of elementary school, are gathering at the dining table in the living room, staring at a tablet computer and watching an anchor doing a live broadcast of a game.

Today is Sunday, and my parents are away temporarily because of something. There is only a cousin at home who comes to eat. Naturally, the two of them do whatever they want.

Originally, Xia Tinglei wanted to grab the tablet to play "Honor of Kings", but his sister took over the tablet first, and he couldn't grab it, so he could only harass him from the side - I can't play, and you can't enjoy watching it either.

But as he watched, he was also attracted by the live broadcast, so the siblings got together and watched the live broadcast with great interest.

The anchor of the live broadcast is a very famous game anchor. He plays all kinds of games and does whatever games are popular. The live broadcast effect is very strong and the popularity is very high.

But today, the game he used for live broadcast was a very special game - "Sound Genesis", which had just been put into a small-scale public beta test. It was a game in which only the sound was heard, but the shadow was not seen, and a dedicated voice was involved.

The anchor followed the game's guide and completed a few minutes of speech recognition calibration, followed by a very brief character setting, and then started matching players and preparing to enter the game.

"This game has a computer version and a mobile version. Although it is played with sound, we can see the corresponding subtitles on the screen. Well, you see, what I say now, he quickly recognizes and displays it on the screen. Oh, oh, this recognition rate and recognition speed are a bit scary, I deliberately said it faster and with an accent, it doesn’t have much impact.”

The host didn't say a few words, and the game was loaded. In the somewhat eerie BGM, a rich narration sounded: "You get up from the weeds, look around, and are surprised to find that you are in a place you have never seen before. In the woods, if you think carefully, you seem to have fallen asleep in the office..."

The anchor couldn't help but say: "This voice is a bit awesome. According to the game, this should be an AI voice, but it sounds more like a real person speaking in terms of rhythm and tone. Gee, it's a bit awesome..."

Just as he was speaking, the narrator of the game stopped. After he finished speaking, he continued: "You seem to have broken your head and started talking nonsense, as if you feel that everything around you is a game."

"Holy shit! I'm shocked! The person who reads the narration can't really be a real person, right?! Does a game have a dedicated narration service? No, his voice is obviously directed at me. This game of ours Looking at the previous matching, there were eighteen people participating, so wouldn’t it mean that eighteen people should be matched..." Halfway through the anchor's words, he saw an audience member on the barrage reminding him of the "rules" of the game just now, and quickly said: "It seems that it can't be started. Say something out of the game environment in the voice input state,

I'll focus on playing games first. "

The narrator continued: "While you were talking nonsense, you slowly and carefully walked forward, stopping for a few steps and observing for a while, as if you were worried about confusing the direction. Suddenly, you heard the sound of footsteps. You Following the sound, you saw a tall young man carrying a bamboo basket and wearing coarse linen clothes. He looked like an ancient man. He walked out from behind a big tree. You shouted:..."

The anchor knew that this was the time he needed to input, so he also raised his voice and shouted: "Old man!"

A second after he entered the voice, the narration continued: "The young man heard your shouting, looked at you slightly surprised, and walked towards you."

Then there was the sound of footsteps stepping on the grass in the forest, and then, Mandarin with a heavy Hercynian accent sounded: "Brother, are you calling me?"

Narrator: "You begin to ask for information that concerns you:..."

The anchor asked: "Old man, where is this place?"

The voice with an accent from Haixi Province replied: "This is Dagluan Mountain, no, what kind of mountain is it? Dagang Mountain? Forget it, let's just Dagluan Mountain, this is Dagluan Mountain!"

"Brother...where is Rolling Mountain? By the way, which era is this? Is it on earth?" The anchor asked again. Before entering the game, he only knew that this was a time-travel story, but the specific content was unclear. , I don’t know if I have traveled to ancient China or a different world. Anyway, as long as I find and rescue a girl named Xiangxiang, I will win.

"I forgot where. The system just told me, oh, brother, are you really a player? It's interesting. There is no noise in the voice. I thought you were an NPC at first." The person with the Haixi accent said, "By the way, my name is 'Flying Wild Rhinoceros', and I do live broadcasts on the Huoyu platform. You can follow me later. The room number is..."

A "boom" sound interrupted the voice of the player with an accent from Haixi Province, and then a narration sounded: "When the young man in front of you was dancing and talking nonsense at you, suddenly a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck him. You He was also ejected, and when you stood up from the ground and looked over, you found that he had completely disappeared, as if the words you just said violated some unknown taboo and were punished by heaven."

The anchor quickly turned off the game's voice recording temporarily, and then said with a smile to the fans watching the live broadcast: "I just thought this guy was going to be bad. What he said was obviously against the background of the game and the rules of the game, but I didn't expect this. The punishment will be like this, a direct 'God's Punishment' and everyone will be gone. It's interesting! It's really interesting!"

The anchor quickly turned on the voice recording again and continued to play the game following the guidance of the narration.

"I think I should look in the direction that the person came from just now. Maybe I can get out of this mountain forest." The anchor also mastered the gameplay of this game and used "talking to himself" to influence his own game trajectory. .

Sure enough, the narrator said: "You started to follow the man's footsteps, but soon discovered that the direction he came from was not outside the mountain, but deep into the mountain. You thought that the bamboo basket he just carried was full of medicinal herbs, and it was very strange. Obviously he went into the mountains to collect herbs and returned home with a full load, and the direction he was going was the direction out of the mountains. But just when you were about to change direction and go back, you heard a faint sound of fighting..."

When the host followed the background of the game and played it, it didn't take long for him to unknowingly integrate into the game, as if he was really a person who had traveled to a different world.

The narration of the game is very smooth, and the tone will change accordingly according to the environment and the progress of the plot. Coupled with BGM and related sound effects, it is indeed easy to bring people into the situation.

The narration does not always follow the fixed players. Sometimes, after their names in the game are announced and known to each other, in a big scene, the narration will also use the third person to explain all the players in this "scene", creating a A kind of "group play" feeling.

After playing for more than 40 minutes, the anchor was unfortunately "killed" by a female player. But he can still choose different "perspectives" and continue to listen to the progress of the game.

“Even if you don’t directly participate or play, but just listen, it’s still very interesting. It really feels like listening to a radio drama, even more exciting than many radio dramas. When I heard about the mechanics of this game before, I thought it was just a comparison. It's an advanced group running game, but now it seems that the experience is completely different!

"The plot framework of the story itself is not complicated, but when everyone can have an impact and there are many variables, the plot line is constantly changing, various branch lines are constantly derived, and they can be fitted together very reasonably. , don’t go off track, this is really awesome!

"And the identities of the players are also well arranged. Some are time travellers, some are natives, and the winning goals are also different... There are also NPCs. During the conversation, unless it is deliberately revealed, there is really no way to discover each other at once. Whether it was a player or an NPC, I was really confused when I was killed by that 'little lady' just now!

"If the NPC inside is really automatically generated by AI, can it pass the Turing test? This vine pepper... Tengjiao Interactive Entertainment, which popped out of the cracks in the rocks, I have never heard of it before, the technology is too special Be strong!

"Let me make it clear that this experience is completely real. There is no coincidence. I even bought the invitation code for the public beta account on a certain treasure..." the anchor said with emotion. After he was "killed", he also You can now freely chat about your feelings with the fans watching the live broadcast.

Not only the anchor, Xia Nianqing and Xia Tinglei, the siblings who have been watching the live broadcast, are also very immersed and addicted. In fact, this is not the first time that Xia Nianqing has watched the live broadcast of this game. This game has been the first in public beta since the beginning. Since the beginning of the day, it has quickly occupied the top spots in various game live streaming lists.

Although it is only a small-scale public beta, the number of players in the public beta is very limited, and most people watching the live broadcast cannot play the game themselves, but watching the live broadcast and watching others play, or to be precise, "listening" to others playing, is also very different. Every time you watch a live broadcast, it is like listening to a radio drama. The level of excitement and interest may vary, but they are all attractive.

It is precisely because of this that the public beta invitation codes for "Voice Genesis" on Taobao have been sold to four figures.

When Xia Nianqing and Xia Tinglei were halfway through watching the live broadcast, a tall figure appeared behind them and listened to the live broadcast with them. It was their cousin Xia Tianhuo, who had been kidnapped in Myanmar earlier.

"If you two don't study hard and do your homework, and you're still watching the live broadcast here, be careful what I tell my uncle and aunt!" After the game, Xia Tianhuo "preached" to his cousin.

The two siblings clearly had no respect for their cousin Xia Libing. Xia Nianqing turned around and rolled her eyes at him: "Brother Huo, today is Sunday, okay? And I have already finished my homework. Watching the live broadcast is also doing it for us." Doing research on the sociology topic of the club is not just for fun! But Xia Tinglei’s homework seems not to be finished yet..."

Xia Tinglei also said with a playful smile: "Come on, Brother Huo was much more prestigious than me when he was studying. He often skipped classes without mentioning it. He also beat him from the first year of high school to the third year of high school, and then to the Academic Affairs Office from the third year of high school. I heard that he went to the Academic Affairs Office. I yelled at the door: 'I'm going to beat ten~~~~', and then I was beaten by the uncle who rushed to the school..."

"Who did you listen to?" Xia Tianhuo couldn't help but pick up the naughty kid who was teasing him and spank him. However, the boy laughed while being spanked, and Xia Nianqing also picked up her mobile phone to record the video. , laughing while filming: "Brother Huo, beat him hard! This kid is thick-skinned. My mother usually beats him with a rolling pin. You are not strong enough. Xia Tinglei, look at the camera. Come on, cooperate and scream twice..." "

Xia Tianhuo was speechless. Of course he didn't use too much force. He was just trying to scare the kid, but he couldn't really hit him hard. If he really got into trouble, the joke would be a big one, so he could only helplessly beat the kid. Xia Tinglei put it down, ignored the naughty kid, and went to open the refrigerator to get a drink.

"Brother Huo, I heard that you were kidnapped before?" After Xia Nianqing gave the tablet to her younger brother to play Honor of Kings, she walked over to her cousin who was sitting on the sofa looking at his phone and asked in a low voice.

"Who did you listen to?" Xia Tianhuo said with a frown.

"I guessed it! Forget it, to be honest, I heard my parents mention it before when they were talking in the room. No wonder my parents sent us to Aunt Yang's house for several days when Sister Bing came over in March. God, I'm just rescuing you! Hey, Brother Huo, tell me, how were you kidnapped and how were you rescued? Who were the kidnappers like, did they have an AK?" Xia Nianqing asked with bright eyes. , "Why did my sister Bing know about this first? Why didn't you directly inform my dad or uncle?"

"Go, go, go watch your live broadcast." Xia Tianhuo pushed her head away, and was secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, it was Lao Xia who called to ask for the ransom, and he would not tell anyone the content of the distress call casually. If it were Yang Zhener's cousin, or the cousin in front of her, it would have been publicized to the whole world that she called her "Mom".

"Hey~! Come on, they are all your cousins. There is no reason for you to only tell Sister Bing and not me!" Xia Nianqing said coquettishly.

"Then you are also a cousin, but you are as good as a quail in front of Lao Xia, and you are as good as a flea in front of me?"

No matter Xia Nianqing pestered her in every possible way, Xia Tianhuo refused to discuss the kidnapping with him. In the end, she lost her patience, and she could only go back to her room to watch a drama.

Xia Tianhuo picked up his phone and looked for information about the "Sound Genesis" game.

He knew that this game seemed to be created by Xiang Kun, who was working on some research base or research center with Lao Xia. Before going abroad years ago, he had met this bald boy.

Moreover, Yang Zhener and Tang Baona are also deeply involved in this game.

It is said that when a few of them were testing the game internally, the narration was still Nana's voice, but now it has been replaced. Although the voice sounded pretty good, he still wanted to hear Tang Baona's version of the narration.

Today is April 19th, a full month has passed since Xiang Kun and Lao Xia went to Pengcheng to meet Zhang Qian.

"Sound Genesis" has just started a small-scale public beta. In less than five days, it has become popular on the Internet and has become a hot spot of public opinion.

As time goes by, people's focus begins to shift from the gameplay itself to other aspects.
