Were non-player controlled characters strong or not?
Shi Lei chose to add non-player controlled characters. As for the strength of non-player controlled characters, Shi Lei did not have a complete understanding of Shi Lei's strength.
This was because Shi Lei had not spent much time in the World of Heroes.
However, Shi Lei noticed that there was something strange about the non-player controlled characters in the World of Heroes.
It seemed like …
In short, other than balancing the fairness of the competition, Shi Lei had another purpose for adding non-player controlled characters.
Shi Lei also planned to watch the battle between Thunderbolt and Liu Rufeng. He wanted to have Izur show the battle through the projector. He needed to carefully observe Liu Rufeng's strength.
In the eighteenth round of the World of Heroes, there were a total of 50 matches. These 50 matches were not held at the same time. Instead, they were split into five groups. Each group had 10 matches, and each group had a 10-minute interval between matches.
Simply put, the first group of 20 players would have 10 matches. They would start at 8 AM sharp in the World of Heroes.
After 10 minutes, the second group of 10 matches would begin. At 8: 20 AM, the third group of 10 matches would begin.
Don't think that the 10-minute interval was too short and meaningless.
This 10-minute interval was very useful!
The battle between experts was often like a storm. Victory and defeat could be decided in an instant.
Losing in one move, losing the entire game, was very normal!
Other than a few evenly matched opponents, the 10-minute interval was enough to decide the winner.
Even if the winner could not be decided, the spectators would be able to judge whether the match was worth watching in the 10-minute interval.
The TV stations could also judge whether the match was worth broadcasting, or choose to broadcast the second group of 10 matches.
Storm, Jun Wu Hui, and Xin Zhou Zi were the members of the first group of 10 matches. This made Shuangqing TV Station suffer. These three members were experts that they were preparing to broadcast!
Faced with such a situation, they could only choose to broadcast Storm's match and then record the other two's match.
Before the second group of matches began, there was only one match left in the first group of matches. Two evenly matched players were still fighting.
A single match was limited to one hour. They still had a lot of time.
The match between Thunderbolt and White-clothed Swordsman Liu Rufeng happened to be in the second group of ten matches. The three people who valued non-player-controlled characters bought tickets for the audience. Each ticket only cost ten copper coins.
The three of them focused their attention on the match between Thunderbolt and Liu Rufeng. After waiting for a few minutes, the second group of ten matches began.
Thunderbolt held a peerless shackle-grade god weapon and looked at the young man in white.
This young man had handsome facial features. His proportions were harmonious, and his eyes revealed a resolute look.
"A non-player character?
Humph!
He's just a non-player character. I only need ten moves to defeat him! "Thunderbolt looked at Liu Rufeng with disdain.
Although the match had already begun, Liu Rufeng and Thunderbolt did not make a move.
Liu Rufeng looked at Thunderbolt and showed his wisdom. "Thunderbolt, please don't show any mercy, because I will do my best!"
"Hmph!
Of course, I won't be merciful! "Thunderbolt snorted coldly.
"That's great!
This competition is amazing. There's no real death. Then, I can use 100% of my strength! "Liu Rufeng unsheathed his sword and pointed it at Thunderbolt.
At this moment, Thunderbolt vaguely felt a biting cold aura. Because Thunderbolt was using a VR game helmet, the first-person view had a strong visual impact. Thunderbolt was actually intimidated by Liu Rufeng's aura!
It was as if he was looking at a picture of a tiger descending the mountain, but he was shocked by the tiger!
"Cut the crap!
Let's see who's stronger! "Thunderbolt broke through Liu Rufeng's aura lock and rushed toward Liu Rufeng.
White-clothed Swordsman Liu Rufeng acted as if he did not see Thunderbolt. Instead, he said loudly, "The weapon in your hand seems to be the world-famous God Weapon Ash Tooth, right?"
Thunderbolt was shocked. He did not understand how a non-player-controlled character could know his weapon.
However, Thunderbolt did not want to be intimidated. He rushed towards Liu Rufeng and shouted, "Since you know, then die!"
Liu Rufeng tapped the ground with the tip of his foot and took two steps back, easily dodging the tip of the Ash Tooth. His cool posture caused the female players to scream.
Shi Lei frowned. "A non-player-controlled character can reach such a level?"
"Izur, is the system actively controlling Liu Rufeng?"
Shi Lei asked Izur directly. If Izur was actively controlling Liu Rufeng, this performance would make sense.
“No，Sir。
The system is not actively controlling Liu Rufeng. All of Liu Rufeng's actions are handled by the system's projection subsystem.
Liu Rufeng's performance is based on the Human Bionic Movement System and the Automatic Induction Learning and Judgment Module System. It is an autonomous logic control program, "Izur replied to Shi Lei.
The Human Bionic Movement System was one of the core technologies of the Hero's World's main engine, the Sword Spirit Game Engine. It could completely simulate the movements of the human body.
Hearing Izur's explanation, Shi Lei was slightly surprised. Liu Rufeng, a non-player-controlled character, was actually operating autonomously?
"Izur actually created a projection subsystem for a non-player-controlled character.
Could it be that the millions of non-player-controlled characters in the Hero's World all have Izur's projection subsystem? "
Shi Lei did not ask this question. Instead, he wanted to verify it himself.
In the Hero's World, Thunderbolt's fierce attack was easily dodged by Liu Rufeng. This caused Thunderbolt to lose his balance and stumble forward, revealing a large opening.
At this moment, Thunderbolt only felt a bright silver light flash past. The next moment, a shining silver sword was placed across his neck.
Thunderbolt naturally could not feel the cold edge of the sword, but he knew that he had been defeated by the White-Clothed Blade Master, Liu Rufeng, in just one move!
Most of the players who were watching the battle between Thunderbolt and Liu Rufeng were shocked by this turn of events.
Storm frowned deeply. Through his investigation, he discovered that Thunderbolt also had a VR gaming helmet and a third-generation free-body control platform.
Storm originally thought that Thunderbolt and Liu Rufeng would have an earth-shattering battle, allowing him to analyze Liu Rufeng's strength.
However, Storm did not expect Thunderbolt to be so disappointing and lose in just one move!
However, in the arena, Liu Rufeng did not immediately kill Thunderbolt. Instead, he put away his sword.
Thunderbolt's face alternated between green and white. The non-player-controlled character that he had looked down on was actually pitying him?
"Liu Rufeng, what do you mean?
I don't need your pity! "Thunderbolt shouted angrily.
Liu Rufeng shook his head coldly. "This is not pity. It's malice!"
The viewers in the real world who were watching the livestream, as well as the players in the World of Heroes who were watching the livestream, were all shocked by Liu Rufeng's "advanced" language. Almost all the players watching this match had the same question: Liu Rufeng, is the character really not controlled by the player?
Was it possible that an employee of Dream Entertainment was controlling Liu Rufeng?
"What?" Thunderbolt was confused. He did not seem to understand what Liu Rufeng meant.
Liu Rufeng had the power to kill him, but he let him go. Why was it malice?
Liu Rufeng chuckled and said, "You've been defeated by me anyway. I want you to practice with me!
Also, I want to know how powerful the Divine Weapon, Green Fang, is! "
"You …" Thunderbolt never thought that a non-player-controlled character would have such "intelligence"!
Shi Lei's eyes flashed as he watched Liu Rufeng's performance. He did not question Izur and continued to watch patiently.
"What's wrong, Thunderbolt? Are you unwilling?" Liu Rufeng said as he attacked Thunderbolt with his sword.
Thunderbolt gritted his teeth as he looked at Liu Rufeng. He swore to himself that he would kill Liu Rufeng later.
Thunderbolt did not dodge Liu Rufeng's longsword. Instead, he swung his Green Fang to meet it.
As long as Green Fang could break his opponent's weapon, he would be able to win!
However, just as the Silver Light Longsword was about to collide with the Divine Weapon, Green Tooth, Liu Rufeng turned his wrist and the swift and fierce sword momentum slowed down a little. He did not meet force with force with force. Instead, the back of the sword stuck to the blade of the Green Tooth and swept the Green Tooth away as if he was swatting a fly.
Thunderbolt was driven by Cang Ya's saber momentum, and his chest was wide open. The white-clothed swordsman Liu Rufeng's clothes fluttered, and the silver sword left a very small wound on Thunderbolt's chest. Only blood seeped out, dyeing Thunderbolt's clothes red.
White Blade Master Liu Rufeng retreated. He did not cause any substantial damage to Thunderbolt.
However, Liu Rufeng deliberately did not kill Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt felt humiliated.
Thunderbolt almost went crazy. The VR gaming helmet's first-person view was too realistic. He could not help but be immersed in the Hero's World.
After being humiliated, Thunderbolt roared angrily and charged at White Blade Master Liu Rufeng.
Liu Rufeng shook his head and said in a low voice, "You overestimate yourself!"
In the next moment, the white-clothed swordsman, Liu Rufeng, used his Qing Gong and shot towards Lei Li. His silver sword was like a catkin in the wind, silently streaking through the air. The two figures also passed by each other.
The White Clothed Swordsman Liu Rufeng smoothly sheathed his silver sword. As for Lei Li, he had already fallen to the ground.
They were of the same level. Thunderbolt even had a peerless shackle-grade weapon. However, he was no match for Liu Rufeng. A character not controlled by a player was actually so strong!
Thunderbolt, who was favored by the players and had a peerless shackle-grade divine weapon, was actually so weak!
