Erythronium.

At the home of Xia Libing's third uncle and third aunt, Xia Nianqing, who had just entered junior high school, and her younger brother Xia Tinglei, who was still in the fourth grade of elementary school, leaned together on the dining table in the living room, staring at a tablet computer to watch a live broadcast of the game.

Today is Sunday. My parents are temporarily absent, and there is only a cousin at home who is here for a meal. Naturally these two do what they want.

Originally, Xia Tinglei wanted to grab a tablet to play "Glory of Kings", but the tablet was preempted by his sister, and he couldn't grab it. He could only harass it by the side-I can't play it, and you don't want to watch it.

But watching, he was also attracted by the live broadcast, so the siblings got together and watched the live broadcast with relish.

The host of the live broadcast is a very well-known game host. They do all kinds of games, what games are popular and what they do. The live broadcast effect is very strong and popular.

But today he used to do the live broadcast, but it is a very special game-it is the "Sound of Genesis" that has just undergone a small-scale public beta, a game in which only the sound is heard, but the shadow is not seen.

Following the guide of the game, the anchor completed a few minutes of voice recognition correction, followed by a very brief character setting, and then began to match the players and prepare to enter the game.

"This game has a computer version and a mobile version. Although they are all played by sound, we can see the corresponding subtitles on the screen. Well, you see, what I say now is quickly recognized and displayed on the screen. Oh, whoops, the recognition rate and recognition speed are a bit scary. I deliberately said to be quicker and accented, but it doesn’t matter much."

The anchor didn’t say a few words, and the game was loaded. In the somewhat eerie BGM, a thick narration rang: “You got up from the weeds, looked around, and was surprised to find that you were in someone you had never seen before. In the woods, when you think about it carefully, you seemed to have fallen asleep in the office before..."

The anchor couldn't help saying: "This voice is a bit powerful. According to the game, it should be an AI voice, but it sounds more like a real person talking regardless of the rhythm or tone. Tsk tsk, a bit awesome..."

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

"Fuck! I'm shocked! The narrator is not really a real person, right?! Is it possible that a game is served by a dedicated narrator? No, his voice is obviously directed at me alone, our game Looking at the previous match, there were 18 people participating. Wouldn’t it be necessary to match 18..." The anchor talked halfway through, seeing the audience on the barrage reminding him of the “rules” of the game just now, and quickly said: “It seems that it cannot be played If I leave the game environment in the voice input state, I will concentrate on playing the game first."

The narrator continued: "While you are talking nonsense, you are walking slowly and carefully, stopping a few steps, walking for a while and watching for a while, as if you are worried about messing up the direction. Suddenly, you hear the sound of footsteps, you Following the sound, I found a tall young man who looked like an ancient man with a bamboo basket on his back and he was dressed in coarse linen. He walked out from behind a big tree and you shouted:..."

The anchor knew that it was time for him to input, so he raised his pitch and shouted: "Old Iron!"

One second after he entered the voice, the narration continued: "The young man heard your call, gave you a slightly surprised look, and walked towards you."

Then there was the sound effect of footsteps on the grass in the forest. Then, the Mandarin with a very heavy Haixi accent sounded: "Brother, you call me?"

Narrator: "You start asking about the information you care about:..."

The anchor asked: "Lao Tie, what is this place?"

The accented voice of Haixi Province replied: "This is Rolling Mountain, no, what mountain is it from? Dagun Mountain? Forget it, just Rolling Mountain, this is Rolling Mountain!"

"Brother...Where is the 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 story through, but the specific content was not clear. , I don’t know whether it is traveling to ancient China or another world. Anyway, as long as you find and rescue a girl named Xiangxiang, you will win.

"Where I forgot, the system just told me, oh, brother, are you really a player? It's kind of interesting, the voice doesn't sound any noise at all, I thought you were an NPC at first." The person with a Haixi accent said, "By the way, my name is'Gently Flying Wild Rhinoceros'. I will be broadcasting live on the Huoyu platform. You can pay attention to it later. The room number is..."

"Boom" interrupted the player's voice with the Haixi province accent, and then the narration sounded: "When the young man in front of you was dancing gibberish against you, suddenly a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck him. You. He was also bounced out. When you stand up from the ground and look over, you find that he has completely disappeared, as if the words just said violated some unknowable taboo and received a punishment from heaven."

The anchor quickly turned off the voice recording of the game, and then smiled to the fans who watched the live broadcast and said: "I just thought this guy is bad. Those words that are obviously violate the background of the game and violate the rules of the game, but I did not expect this. The punishment will be like this, and the people will be gone directly with the "Heaven's Punishment". Interesting! It is really interesting!"

The anchor quickly turned on the voice recording again, and continued to play the game with the narration.

"I think I should follow the direction that the person just came to see, maybe I can get out of this mountain forest." The anchor also mastered the gameplay of this game and used "self-talking" to influence his own game trajectory .

Sure enough, the narrator said: "You started to follow the person's footsteps, but soon discovered that he was coming from not outside the mountains, but deep in the mountains. You think of the bamboo basket he just carried filled with herbs. Obviously he came back to the mountain with a full load of medicine, and the direction he was going is the direction of the mountain. But just when you were about to change direction and walk back, you vaguely heard the sound of fighting..."

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

The narration of the game is very smooth, and the tone will change according to the progress of the environment and the plot, coupled with the 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 when their names in the game are reported to each other, in the big scene, the narration will also use the third person to explain all the players in this “scene” to create A feeling of "group play".

After playing for more than forty 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 participate directly, don’t play, but just listen, it’s very interesting. It really feels like listening to radio dramas, even better than many radio dramas. When I listened to the game’s mechanics before, I thought it was just a comparison. Advanced 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 changed, various branches are continuously derived, and it can be reasonably integrated. , Don’t go wrong, this is really a bit better!

"Moreover, the identities of the players are also arranged very well. Some are traversers, some are natives, and the winning goals are different... There are also NPCs, unless it is deliberately revealed, otherwise there is really no way to find each other at once. Is it a player or an NPC, when I was killed by that "little lady" just now, I was really confused!

"If the NPC inside is really automatically generated by AI, can you pass the Turing test? This rattan pepper...Tengjiao mutual entertainment, which stone came out of the crack, I haven't heard of it before, is the technology too special? Be strong!

"To make a statement, this experience is completely real. There is no good food. I even bought the public beta number invitation code from a treasure..." The anchor said with emotion. After he was "killed", You can let go and chat with fans watching the live broadcast.

Not only the anchor, but Xia Nianqing and Xia Tinglei who have been watching the live broadcast are also very devoted and addicted. In fact, this is not the first time Xia Nianqing has watched the live broadcast of this game. This game has been the first in the public beta since the beginning. From the beginning of the day, it quickly occupied the top few of the live broadcast charts of various games.

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

It is precisely because of this that the public beta invitation code of "Genesis of Sound" on Taobao has been fired to four digits.

Halfway through Xia Nianqing and Xia Tinglei watching the live broadcast, a tall figure also appeared behind them, listening to the live broadcast with them, it was their cousin, Xia Tianhuo, who was kidnapped in Myanmar earlier.

"You two don't study hard, do your homework well, and you're still watching the live broadcast here. Be careful. I told the third uncle and the third aunt!" After the game was over, Xia Tianhuo "preached" to his cousin and cousin.

The two sisters and brothers obviously did not have awe of Xia Libing for this cousin. Xia Nianqing turned his head and gave him a blank look: "Huo brother, today is Sunday, okay? And my homework has already been done, and watching the live broadcast is also for us. Doing research on the society’s sociology topics is not pure play! But Xia Tinglei’s homework seems to have not been done yet..."

Xia Tinglei also said with a hippie smile: "Come on, Brother Huo was more prestigious than me when he was studying at the beginning. He often missed classes, he played from high school to high school, and then from high school to the academic affairs office, I heard that he went to the academic affairs office. Everyone shouted at the door:'I want to hit ten~~~~', and then was beaten by the uncle who rushed to the school..."

"Who did you hear about it..." Xia Tianhuo couldn't help but spanking the kid who teased him, but this kid laughed while being beaten, and Xia Nianqing also followed by taking his mobile phone and filming the video. , Slapped and laughed: "Brother Huo beats hard! This kid is thick-skinned. My mother usually beats with a rolling pin. You can't do this with strength. Xia Tinglei, look at the camera, come on, cooperate a little, and scream twice... "

Xia Tianhuo was speechless. Of course he didn’t exert any effort. He just frightened the kid, but he couldn’t really beat him. In case of a good or bad fight, the joke would be a big deal. Xia Tinglei put it down, ignoring the bear boy, 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 King of Glory, she leaned over to the cousin who was sitting on the sofa and looking at the phone and asked in a low voice.

"Who did you hear?" Xia Tianhuo frowned.

"I guess! Forget it, let's be honest. I mentioned it when I heard my parents talking in the room before. No wonder Bing Sister came over in March. My parents sent us to Aunt Yang's house several times. God, I'm rescuing you! Hey, Brother Huo, tell me how you were kidnapped and how you were rescued? What kind of kidnappers, do you have AK?" Xia Nianqing asked with beaming eyes "Why did my sister Bing know about this first? Why didn't you directly inform them of my dad or uncle?"

"Go go, go and watch your live broadcast." Xia Tianhuo pushed her head away, secretly rejoicing in her heart. Fortunately, it was Lao Xia who called for the ransom and didn't tell anyone about the content of the call for help. If it was Yang Zhener's cousin, or the cousin in front of her, it would have been publicized that the whole world knew that she called her "Mom".

"Hey~! Tell me, it's your cousin, you have no reason to just tell Sister Bing, not me!" Xia Nianqing said spoiledly.

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

Despite Xia Nianqing's entanglement in every way, Xia Tianhuo just didn't discuss the kidnapping with him. In the end, she was so impatient, she could only go back to her room to watch the drama.

Xia Tianhuo picked up his mobile phone and searched for information about the game of Genesis Sound.

He knew that this game seemed to be played with Lao Xia on a research base or Xiang Kun from the research center. Before he went abroad a year ago, he had seen this bald boy.

In addition, Yang Zhen'er and Tang Baona are also deeply involved in this game.

It is said that when they were testing and playing internally, the narration was still Nana's voice, but now it was changed. Although the voice sounded pretty good, he still wanted to listen to Tang Baona's version of the narration.

...

Today is April 19, and it has been a whole month since Xiang Kun and Lao Xia went to Pengcheng to meet Zhang Qian.

"Genesis of Sound" has just started a small-scale public beta, and within five days it has spread all over the Internet and has become a hot spot of public opinion.

With the passage of time, people's attention began to shift from their own gameplay to other aspects.
