Chapter 209: Old Thief! What are you going to do? (Part ) (Five Thousand Chapters)

Quiet.

In Han Yong's opinion, this revision of Honor can be regarded as creating history, and the level of its revision is still worthy of high expectations.

But this is not the case.

Even the way he studied for a while before figuring out his appearance didn't make much of a splash.

There were only dozens of pairs of eyes staring at him, with all kinds of complicated emotions, but not much conviction in him.

Oh, maybe there are some in the eyes of the managers waiting in the lounge area on the other side.

This made Han Yong very embarrassed.

Pei Yunteng couldn't help but smirk as he watched this guy trying to imitate the way he did in front of the crowd during the LOL internal beta test, but ended up failing to achieve his goal.

Pei Yunteng was able to show off his prowess in front of the public because Teng Hai had accumulated a huge foundation and good reputation through one glorious victory after another in the past ten years.

He himself has also become a leading figure in the gaming field with great prestige.

But what about Han Yong?

The new version was released so late, which gave the next generation a long time to develop. This is not a good time.

Tencent has already staked out its territory and firmly controlled the market, and has even begun to set standards for e-sports, while Honor can only watch, which is not a good advantage.

More than half of the contestants invited to take the test are traitors with ulterior motives, which is not favorable to the people.

It can be said that the time, place and people are not favorable.

At the critical moment, Ye Xiu was the first to applaud, which made the players present react. Sparse applause rang out, barely saving Han Yong's last bit of face.

Han Yong's smile froze, but he still had to maintain his facial expression and finally controlled his emotions: "Everyone, come in first. I'll take you to the testing site."

Although he was essentially just a receptionist, it was still a bit difficult for him to be humiliated by his subordinates.
If his predecessor, Feng Xianjun, who is currently heading to Los Angeles to supervise the battle, knew about this,

Gao Di De patted him on the shoulder and laughed at him: "Brother, you will get used to it."

After all, during Feng Xianjun's tenure, due to the influence of certain bad apples, these professional players were even more unbridled in front of him than they are now.

With Han Yong leading the way, the professional players who almost treated the e-sports association's compound as a large-scale family reunion site finally realized belatedly that they seemed to be here to take a test.

They immediately fell silent in embarrassment and followed Han Yong in groups of three or five.

Almost at the end of the team, Tang Rou and Pei Yunteng walked side by side, talking and laughing through their masks and sunglasses.

"By the way, from your perspective, what are your expectations for this new version?" Tang Rou was unusually curious.

In her eyes, at least in the field of gaming, no one's opinion could be more constructive than Pei Yunteng's.

"To be honest, I really don't know." Pei Yunteng shook his head.

Honor is now a huge blind box for Pei Yunteng.

In a huge, advanced, but extremely complex futuristic game system, ask a group of world-class stand-alone game designers with different styles, specialties, and preferences to create a competitive game?
Please forgive Pei Yunteng for his limited experience, he has never seen such a strange scene before.

"However, based on my understanding of the lineup this time, no matter how big the problems are in the new version of Honor, it should still give people a brand new feeling overall."

The original Honor vividly illustrates what it means to use the latest and most avant-garde technology to make the most old-fashioned, formulaic and conservative online game.

Their original developers used the Honor of Kings engine and applied a formulaic template, and ended up creating an MMO that couldn't be more standard.

Based on Pei Yunteng's understanding of the lineup of designers invited by Honor this time, these guys are best at making great innovations in gameplay and ideas.

Especially Aonuma Eiji, oh, in this world he is called Aonuma,

Being able to create a great game of historical level like Kingdom of Tears within the performance limitations of the Switch, which is like electronic garbage, and giving it a Glory engine, wouldn't it be fun as hell?
It can be said that the only thing that can limit this group of designers is the development time limit of less than one year and the relatively unfamiliar proposition of "competitive games".

They were chatting happily when suddenly someone patted Pei Yunteng on the back. He was so scared that he turned around quickly.

"Hello, are you also a professional player of Glory? Why haven't I seen you before?"

Sun Xiang looked at this strangely dressed, sneaky fellow, and his seemingly calm tone contained a hint of scrutiny.

Seeing that it was this stubborn kid, Pei Yunteng suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

The way he was dressed did make him stand out among this group of handsome men and beautiful women.

However, neither the staff nor Han Yong himself did anything to him along the way, and they had a pleasant chat with Tang Rou all the way.

Even though other contestants also found his appearance a little strange, they subconsciously regarded him as a staff member or someone who didn't like to show his face.

But Sun Xiang is different.

This stubborn kid always wants to get involved when he sees something that goes against his understanding.

Pei Yunteng, who was already trying hard to reduce his presence, was not tolerated at all.

As soon as he shouted, the crowd's eyes immediately began to focus on Pei Yunteng, either out of scrutiny or curiosity.

They had been curious about the identity of this sneaky-looking guy for quite some time.

It’s just right for Sun Xiang to be the vanguard.

Only Ye Xiu had met Pei Yunteng several times and knew a lot about the relationship between Tang Rou and Pei Yunteng. At this moment, the corners of his mouth were twitching constantly, and he silently lit a candle for a certain iron-headed kid.

Pei Yunteng sighed softly.

To be honest, now that he has come here, he has already prepared for his identity to be exposed.

Han Yong had already prepared a strict confidentiality agreement to ensure that no word of today's specific information, including Pei Yunteng's participation, would be leaked to the outside world.

Pei Yunteng's disguise had actually completed its mission as soon as he entered the main entrance of the building.

But no matter how prepared he was, when there really was a daring iron-headed kid who dared to cause trouble for him, Pei Yunteng still felt a bit amused and helpless.

Tang Rou on the side was already covering her mouth and trying her best to hold back her laughter. This girl was enjoying watching the fun.

So, as Sun Xiang's gaze gradually changed from scrutiny and suspicion to shock, and finally to helplessness and despair, Pei Yunteng removed his disguise piece by piece, revealing his true face.

"... Pei Pei Pei Pei Pei... President Pei!" Sun Xiang shuddered all over, and then cold sweat flowed down his face, and he began to stutter when speaking.

"Causing trouble again! Causing trouble again! I told you to cause trouble!" He cursed himself countless times in his heart.

Why can't he control his mouth?
As Pei Yunteng revealed his true face, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

No one could fail to recognize the handsome face in his thirties beneath the disguise. He was a legendary figure who had profoundly changed the ecology of the gaming and even Internet fields in the past decade.

He was also the driving force behind a complete change in the fate of all of them.

A person like him should sit outside the chess table, chatting and laughing while playing chess, and decide the direction of the general situation through countless witticisms.

Why would you come here in person to take part in the Honor test?
"Hello everyone, do you mind if I take this test with you? Although it may lower the average gaming level here." Pei Yunteng greeted calmly.

"Don't mind, don't mind!" Everyone shook their heads like rattles.

Just kidding, except for Tang Rou who can act so unbridled due to her family background, all other professional players present can be classified as internet addicts in front of people of this level.

Do they dare to have any opinion on Pei Yunteng?

"That's great." Pei Yunteng chuckled and nodded, then turned his gaze back to Sun Xiang in front of him, who was feeling uncomfortable and just wanted to find a corner to die.

Sun Xiang didn't dare to look him in the eye. He lowered his head and looked submissive, wanting to cry but without the tears.

He shouldn't have come to this damn test.

Why are you thinking about being a professional player? If you just be a streamer, you won’t encounter such a crisis, right?

Just as he was gritting his teeth and racking his brains, intending to improvise a sincere and emotional apology, he heard Pei Yunteng suddenly ask:
"Did you bring your account card?" Pei Yunteng's voice lacked much emotion.

“…I have brought it! But I am using my Berserker account Hengdao in Yueyun. Yi Ye Zhi Qiu is not in my possession now!”

Sun Xiang, who had just woken up from a dream, took out Hengdao's account card from his trouser pocket at the fastest speed in his life while explaining incoherently. He handed it to Pei Yunteng with both hands, just like a Japanese high school student delivering a love letter.

Look how scared this poor kid is.

Pei Yunteng took Sun Xiang's account card with some amusement and nodded: "Thank you very much, because this version is prepared for professional competitions, I want to test how much impact different accounts will have in the new version."

"No, no, use it as you like!" Sun Xiang was about to cry, his whole body soaked in cold sweat.

Patting Sun Xiang's shoulder with amusement, Pei Yunteng laughed and said, "Don't be so restrained, I'm not a devil." "You are one of the signature anchors of our live broadcast platform. We are all family. Don't be afraid."

After saying this, Pei Yunteng did not stop, but took the lead and walked forward, leaving behind Sun Xiang, whose legs were weak, and the crowd of onlookers led by Tang Rou.

In fact, Tang Rou was the only one who really wanted to watch the show. The others were not in a much better mood than Sun Xiang.

"...Did you know who he was from the beginning?" Sun Xiang raised his head and asked Tang Rou, who was watching the fun, with tears in his eyes.
"I don't know! He started by asking me questions about my impressions and gaming experiences of Honor of Kings and League of Legends. I thought he was a staff member here!"

Having learned bad things from certain people, Tang Rou can now talk nonsense without changing her expression.

Although she and Pei Yunteng had no relationship other than friendship, if the news got out, it might lead to gossip.

Sun Xiang just asked casually without thinking too much. He sighed with relief, glanced around, and waved his hand weakly: "There's nothing to see. Let's go. We still need to test."

It was at this moment that some people began to laugh softly...

……

After many twists and turns, they finally arrived at the test room that the e-sports association had temporarily converted from a conference room.

Looking at the rows of computers and card readers lined up, many contestants who came from Internet cafes were a little dazed for a moment.

It’s like going back to the time when I spent all day in Internet cafes and fighting in the realm of God with my friends.

I felt a little sad for a moment.

The contestants took their seats, took out their account cards and inserted them into the card reader. Those who did not have account cards used the standard account cards provided by the authorities.

All of a sudden, the familiar interface that had been missing for a long time for LPL appeared in front of everyone.

"Glory..." Yu Wenzhou sighed softly.

"Upward slash, rising dragon slash, continuous thrust, silver falling blade! Wuhu! The familiar feeling is back!" Huang Shaotian tried the operation with Ye Yu Sheng Fan on the side and found that he did not regress too much, so he cheered immediately.

But he soon realized: "Wait, why is it still the same as the previous glory?"

Judging from his one or two minutes of rehabilitation, the overall operation mode, perspective mode, combat mode, etc. of Glory have basically not changed much from the old version.

“Isn’t it that the authorities are going to give up?” Huang Shaotian couldn’t help but question.

"No, look over there!" Controlling Soxar and looking around, Yu Wenzhou soon found a new building rising from the ground near the arena building with four big words written on it: Peak Showdown.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the main feature of the new version. But what form should this peak showdown take?" Yu Wenzhou pondered.

The players controlled their characters and came to the registration point for the peak showdown, and found that this new competition system was a 6v6 competition, similar to the previous Glory team competition.

Everyone simply divided into groups and entered the game.

Pei Yunteng, who had snatched Sun Xiang's sword, simply found a group that was short of people and joined it, only to discover that they were all old acquaintances.

Zhou Zekai, Jiang Botao and Lu Boyuan from Samsara, and Xiao Shiqin and Dai Yanqi from Thunder.

Unexpectedly, I found a lineup that can be described as luxurious.

While waiting, Pei Yunteng couldn't help but feel a little excited:
"Old thief...what kind of surprise can you bring me?"

...Well, it's a surprise indeed.

"Where's my equipment? Why is it blank? And I only have 4,000 skill points!"

"Mine is gone too!"

With exclamations one after another, the first change of Honor appeared in front of everyone: all previous super-model equipment, including silver and orange equipment, etc., were completely banned.

The only thing the characters can use after entering the final battle is a set of the most basic novice equipment.

In the temporary team where Pei Yunteng is located.

"Can such a one-size-fits-all model be used to ensure fairness? But this will make many tactical reserves in the game go up in smoke."

Xiao Shiqin sighed in the group voice.

His Life-Destroying Soldier could only use blank equipment and a blank rifle at this time, and looked like a new recruit who was hastily pulled to the battlefield to fill in the line.

At least 70% to 80% of the tactical diversity of Glory is based on the combination of character equipment.

Without equipment and skill points, there would only be twenty-four dry characters to be arranged in combinations in each major team and in each game. I dare not even imagine how boring that would be.

"It's better to be gone, so we don't get scolded every day and give people something to blame." Jiang Botao and Zhou Zekai were quite satisfied with this arrangement.

It’s reincarnation… well-known victims, those who understand will understand.

At this moment, Pei Yunteng walked out while controlling the horizontal sword, and called out to the other five people in the team: "Let's go out and see if there are any other changes."

This ordinary sentence made everyone present shut up immediately. They quickly picked up their novice equipment and followed Hengdao's footsteps, surrounding him tightly in tacit understanding.

How to say it, being on the same team with a heavyweight like Pei Yunteng, even Zhou Zekai, under Jiang Botao's reminder, is very conscious of protecting his boss.

They formed a simple temporary formation and walked out of the birth point. What came into view was a large wilderness dotted with some dilapidated buildings.

"It looks... similar to the previous map?" Xiao Shiqin asked uncertainly.

This so-called peak showdown, except for disabling equipment skill points and allowing six people to join the game at the same time, seems to be no different from the previous Glory.

At least that's what it looks like on the surface.

"No, that's not right." Zhou Zekai, who rarely spoke, suddenly spoke.

He pointed to the dense dark forest ahead, his eyes focused: "There is something in there, maybe it's the BOSS."

As a sharpshooter, his visual accuracy is terrifyingly high.

"BOSS? There is a BOSS in the map?" How could it be possible? Dai Yanqi, the second to last in the temporary team, asked in confusion.

"To be precise, it should be a wild monster." Pei Yunteng hit the nail on the head.

He guessed what the new version of Honor was going to do.

As the saying goes, all articles in the world are plagiarized. His League of Legends relies on jungle resources to create countless highlight moments and exciting jungle games for jungle players.

And all the numerical influences of e-sports games are put into one game, solving the problem of Pay to Win.

There is no reason for Honor not to follow suit now.

"If I'm not mistaken, the first thing we have to do before we encounter our opponents is to fight against various bosses."

“After defeating the BOSS, I will probably be able to get some equipment or something to quickly increase my combat power.

"Wait until everyone has cleared their own jungle area and has strengthened their troops and horses, then we can start the final fight to decide the outcome."

Pei Yunteng urged everyone to head towards the nearest forest while expressing his guess, which made everyone nod repeatedly.

This model...seems to sound good?
Soon, the makeshift team arrived at the deepest part of this small forest, where a familiar guy was watching them hungrily.

The first hidden BOSS that a new player of Glory may encounter is the Dark Night Cat Demon.

"Be prepared, this guy is not as easy to fight as the one in Green Forest." Xiao Shiqin took the initiative to take over the command position.

As the only front row member in the team, Lu Boyuan controlled his Yunshan Luan to take the initiative in the front, ready to attract the first wave of hatred from the Dark Night Cat Demon.
The dark night cat demon was not to be outdone. After a roar, it swooped down from the tree where it was standing, its claws flashing with deadly cold light.

"We don't have any treatment, pay attention to controlling the blood - damn!" Xiao Shiqin's eyes suddenly widened when he was halfway through his command.

The dark night cat demon clawed down, even though Lu Boyuan had activated his defensive skills and avoided the vital points by moving.

But his blood volume was still emptied by half in an instant under the horrified gaze of everyone else.

This dark night cat demon...

Pei Yunteng's eyes widened.

Miyazaki the old thief! It's you!
　First update. I have to take a day off today.

　　After I finish writing it, I will stay up late to make up for the second update. I am so sad.
