After another teleportation, Li You came to a new world. When he opened his eyes, he found that the surroundings were extremely dim, and he seemed to be trapped in a cylindrical container. Li You: "?" What is going on? He felt around and judged that he should be half lying in a pipe as thick as a person. "... It's a bit crowded." The voice of the system sounded. [Congratulations! ] [You have successfully entered the game world, and your current location is: the prison of the prisoner. ] [After completing the first contact, the reward will be drawn. ]
"... Prison? Pipeline? I seem to know where I am." Li You realized something. "... Although, there is no need to put me in the pipe, right? Must it be so ceremonial?" At this time, he keenly caught a sound coming from the pipe above, and instinctively looked up, and then found that a group of green unidentified objects were rushing over from above. The green object was about the size of a football, and its squirming appearance was a bit like seaweed full of bubbles, covering Li You. Li You: "Boil——!" He no longer hesitated, and immediately slid down the passage, jumped out, and landed on the ground. This was an open cell, with a simple guillotine in the center of the cell, and a huge axe embedded in the wooden stake guillotine, which was stained with large patches of blood. On one side of the wall, there was an iron window, and at this moment, sunlight was shining in from outside, illuminating the entire cell. In a corner of the cell, a huge giant skeleton was leaning against the wall, motionless. A huge spear pierced through its chest and abdomen and stuck it into the wall. Li You simply glanced at the surrounding environment, and then rolled over to avoid the green cell that fell later. He immediately stood up, watching the cell continue to squirm, moving to a headless body under the guillotine, and then drilled in from the broken neck of its neck. The body twitched a few times and then stood up. As several flashes of lightning flashed, a dark ghost-like thing suddenly rose from its neck, and a light spot like an eye lit up in the middle. Cell man, rebirth completed. He turned his strange head and looked at Li You, tilting his head slightly, as if wondering who Li You was. Li You narrowed his eyes and slightly raised his vigilance. It was obvious that the game world he came to this time was Dead Cells, or it could be translated as Rebirth Cells in a special version. Dead Cells is a very interesting independent game, which belongs to the horizontal version of Metroid Castlevania. In short, the player controls the protagonist Cell Man, shuttles between different maps and overcomes the obstacles. The route between the maps is fixed, but every time you are reborn, the scene in the map will change randomly. This is the characteristic of this type of game.
Li You actually thought about what it would be like if he traveled to a 2D game world. Now look... well, it still looks like the real world. It's not bad that he has not been reduced to a paper man. The cell man in front of him is naturally the protagonist of the game. The game Dead Cells tells the story of the rise and fall of a kingdom on a small island, and also a story of a dragon slayer who eventually becomes a dragon and causes tragedy. The island where the story takes place was initially ruled by colonists, and people's lives were in turmoil. Later, a warrior appeared and led people to rise up in rebellion. He defeated the colonists, drove them away, and established his own kingdom on the island. After many years of development, the country gradually became rich. Everything was originally beautiful. But then, the king changed. No matter how powerful they are, all rulers cannot escape the end of death. Perhaps this is why there are so many kings and emperors who are obsessed with seeking immortality. The king of this island is the same. After aging, he wanted to pursue immortality, and it happened that at this time, an alchemist met him. The alchemist was looking for the legendary "Philosopher's Stone" and believed that the answer could be found on this island, and the Philosopher's Stone would allow the king to obtain the immortality he sought. The two hit it off. Unfortunately, in almost all stories, this approach will not have a good ending. The alchemist's experiment failed, and the leakage of some kind of pollution caused by the experiment became the beginning of the tragedy of the island... This is the background story of Dead Cells. The story looks simple and the era is relatively old, but to be honest, the combat power level of this world is not low. There are many valuable things, and of course there are some powerful beings, some of which can even touch the underlying rules of the world. Li You and the cell man in front of him looked at each other for a moment, and thought carefully about whether to take out the Undead Slash and chop him with one knife. After all, to be honest, this guy is just a scumbag. Pure scumbag. Yes, in Dead Cells, the game protagonist controlled by the player is actually a very evil villain. This unique setting is rare in games in recent years. As for what kind of villain? You will know after you finish the main storyline... Li You actually wanted to open the door and slash him right now, but after thinking about it, the system's main storyline mission has not been released yet, and he is not sure about the strength of the cell man at the moment. His cautious habit made him decide to wait and see. So Li You said in as normal a tone as possible: "...What's going on with your head? What a strange guy." The flame on Cell Man's head shook, but he didn't speak, and he couldn't speak either. He looked at Li You for a moment, then turned around and walked outside the cell. Li You paused and followed. Climbing the steps, a wide hall came into view. A huge glass tube was placed horizontally in the center of the hall, filled with a colorless solution. Next to the glass tube, stood a female warrior wearing armor, carrying a sword on her back, and holding a long bow in her hand. She heard the noise and turned around, as if she wanted to say something to Cell Man, but she saw Li You following Cell Man and was startled. "Who are you?"
Li You looked at her, thinking a little. This is what players commonly call "Sister Big Sword". She will appear in the prison at the beginning of the game and talk to players. But as long as she advances the map a little and respawns a few times, she will become a corpse lying at the end of the prison - and drop the blueprint of the great sword. This is where her title comes from. Since she is still alive and the glass pipe in the center of the room is empty, it means that the protagonist of the game, Cell Man, must have just begun his journey. The Cell Man ignored Li You and came to the side of the big sword female warrior, gesticulating with his hands, and started communicating with her. Great Sword Female Warrior: "...You said you found that the terrain here is always changing? Ha, indeed. Some people even think that this island is alive, but how is that possible?" Li You watched from the sidelines. Sister Dajian spoke in English, which was good news. But what he was even more curious about was how Sister Da Jian understood what Cell Man wanted to express? But before he could study the issue clearly, the exchange between the two came to an end. Cell Man waved his hand, took his broken knife, kicked open the door on the other side of the hall, and walked away. Then the female warrior with the big sword looked at Li You again: "I don't know who you are or what you want to do, but you'd better be careful in this place." Li You was a little surprised by her friendliness, so he Nodding: "Thank you." The female sword warrior said: "I just don't want to see another living dead." She waved her hand and stopped talking to Li You. Li You didn't pester him. After looking around the hall, he had an idea. In addition to changing from 2D to 3D and removing some overly exaggerated gamification elements, the world still looks basically the same as in the game. Li You was a little unsure of what to do next. He was also interested in exploring the world, but he was worried about the system's mission. Until now, the system still has not released the main mission. Li You thought for a while, and finally decided to follow the protagonist first and see the situation. So he also walked out of the hall door, followed the traces left by the protagonist Cell Man, and chased him all the way. The structure of the entire prison is very complicated. After all, it was originally a map for a horizontal version of the game. Now that it has been transformed into a three-dimensional map, the most troublesome thing is finding the way. The whole prison is in a mess, top to bottom, left and right, and different furnishings can be said to be placed in their own place, highlighting the chaos and disorder. The stairs that stretched out inexplicably, the platform that was only half of the floor in the middle, the hanging chains, and the wall that suddenly blocked the way made Li You's blood pressure rise. What's more, he doesn't have the ability to do a double jump, so running the map is very troublesome. Fortunately, Li You has a 3D system map and a grappling hook catapult. Relying on the system map to identify the exit, and then following the traces left by the Cell Man, Li You walked all the way out. The Cell Man had passed here before, so Li You didn't encounter many enemies at first. But as he walked further, more and more twisted traces of activity appeared in front of him. Soon, when Li You jumped off the edge of a platform, he suddenly noticed the aura of a creature behind him. He turned around and saw a green zombie with fluorescent glowing patches on its body, rushing toward him! "Wha—!" The light of the sword flashed away, and Li You shook the thunder and moon shadow, shaking off the disgusting mucus on the sword. And the green zombie has been diagonally divided into two sections. But it wasn't over yet. Not far away, another green zombie roared and stared at Li You. And as it roared, a zombie that looked very similar to it, but was purple in color and holding an iron shield, followed closely behind and rushed over with its shield raised! Green zombies and shield zombies, these two monsters are the initial mobs in the game and are not difficult to defeat. However, in the game, the shield zombies will never be broken and can only be attacked from behind. But Li You didn't want to go to all that trouble. He first dodged to avoid the green zombie's attack, and then the grappling hook popped out and caught the shield-holding zombie's shield!
He pulled the grappling hook back and ripped off its shield. Before the shield-wielding zombie could react, Li You had already gathered some strength and swung an air blade wrapped in energy! The air blade was made of his own strength as the front and wrapped in the wind blade. It was a technique specially created for him by Yishin after combining Li You's ability and his sword skills. This was also the first time that Li You used it in actual combat. use. The effect looked very good. The air blade flew out diagonally and easily cut off the bodies of two zombies, one green and one purple. It even hit the wall behind, leaving a shallow mark. Li You nodded first, but was a little dissatisfied. In fact, the power of this move can be adjusted by oneself, but because he was not skilled enough, he used too much force. It doesn't take so much power to kill two of the weakest soldiers. After confirming that there were no other enemies here, Li You held the knife and continued to walk out while remaining vigilant. … After a while. Li You swung his sword again and cut off the two green zombies in front of him. Then he pulled out the hand cannon X with his left hand and fired a shot, piercing the grenadiers and undead archers not far away. This is the last group of enemies that can be seen within the system map. Li You put away the hand cannon X and walked down. Cell Man is right over there. Not far away in front of a door that shines with sunlight, Cell Man is standing there, looking at the door while rubbing his chin, which he doesn't know whether he has or doesn't have. Li You walked over: "What are you doing?" The Cell Man seemed to have noticed Li You's approach in advance and was not frightened. He just pointed at the door in front of him and started gesticulating. Li You: "Sorry, I can't understand." Well, actually, although Cell Man's movements are abstract, you can probably understand the meaning. What he probably meant was that there was a group of very troublesome enemies behind this door. Li You recalled for a moment and remembered the map route in the game. The road behind this door leads to the highway of the guilty. There is a new enemy there, the Speed Demon. To put it simply, it is an enemy who wears armor and has blades in his hands. They move quickly and launch thrusting attacks with their two-handed blades. In fact, Speed Demon's attack moves are relatively simple and not difficult to deal with. But the trouble with them is that when a speed demon finds you and you try to escape, it will chase you and even use magic to teleport to you. Yes, on the second map, monsters that can teleport have begun to appear. Therefore, Li You is also seriously thinking about what is the level of combat effectiveness in the now realized world of Dead Cells? Could it be...that it's actually very high? Li You felt that it was time for him to make good preparations, such as using all the gains from Sekiro World. Back to the topic, there are quite a lot of speed demons in the avenue of the guilty. Once multiple speed demons are provoked, the novice will easily die from their siege, and it will be difficult to escape even if they want to.
For this reason, Sumo is known as the friend of Mengxin. Based on what he saw along the way, Li You could probably tell that the cell man in front of him was not the type who would clear out all the enemies one by one before going to the next level. Instead, he might prefer parkour. Therefore, it is not difficult to guess who sent him back last time... Thinking of this, Li You made an encouraging gesture to him and said, "Don't worry! It's just a group of speed demons. You can clean them up step by step, steadily, or run faster, and they won't catch up." Far away.” Cell Man stared at Li You, as if asking him why he knew so clearly, but after all, he couldn't speak. After thinking for a while, he nodded and walked into the door, and Li You followed. After entering the gate and walking along the road, there is a large room like a laboratory. Various alchemical instruments and flasks of various sizes are stacked in the center of the room. And a man wearing a blue-black burqa and carrying a huge transparent jar on his back was rubbing his hands and looking here: "Haha... look who's here... huh?" He also looked at Li You: "I didn't expect... there would be unexpected guests? Are you?" Just as Li You was about to answer, the system prompt sounded: [First contact has been completed. 】 [Final confirmation——Your main mission in this world is:] 【Witness the ending of this island. 】 【Wish you good luck! 】 The first chapter of the new volume! There isn’t much content, and it’s a bit too late. The main reason is that the author has difficulty choosing, and it’s so severe that he wrote two pages to start with a chapter called Orz. I chose this last, so it was late. Orz is enough.
