Chapter 613 - Assassin’s Creed I
Seeing people swarming into the shop. Mr. Fang knew that it was probably time to expand the space inside the shop again.
As for when to release the game…
He glanced at the task list and found that the requirement for assassins visiting the shop had been met.
Right now, many players who had come for Assassin’s Creed began to play Resident Evil 2 while waiting for the release of the new game. Some of the visitors couldn’t even squeeze into the door. Besides, many passersby also tried to get in due to curiosity.
From the looks of it, after the space was expanded tomorrow, the other part of the task requirement would be met.
On the next day, even though the shop’s capacity had been expanded to 1,000 computers, there were way more customers compared to the day before.
Different from the old shops, the people here were only mildly surprised at the expansion of the space in the shop. They only thought that the shop owner had a powerful background and weren’t shocked.
In fact, the Alchemist Union had a similar setup. If necessary, the Judgement Godly Place could achieve this as well. As for the Royal Clan of the Elves, they had their own independent small plane.
Therefore, when Sala entered the shop, she didn’t pay much attention to the space expansion.
Smoothly, she bought a bowl of instant noodles and poured in hot water before adding a sausage in it. Then, she looked at the despicable shop owner and thought, Will you release Assassin’s Creed today?
Harrison came into the shop early today. As an assassin who grew up in the slums, he never lacked the character of hard work.
With short gray hair, this man looked to be about 50 years old. Dressed plainly, he looked like a simple farmer instead of an assassin if he didn’t talk.
In fact, everyone who escaped from the intricate traps in the godly palace after that failed assassination attempt were all excellent assassins.
Comparatively, Elina, who was sitting across from him on a couch looked quite different. She always sat straight and gracefully, giving people the impression that she would never do anything impolite in any occasion.
Of course, no one knew that this red-haired woman who was busy eating spicy sticks was the famous ‘Rose of Moon’ who had successfully assassinated a high-rank priest.
“Ah-!” While she ate spicy sticks, she heard Sala’s exclamation.
Sala had just noticed the words [Trailer 2] had been erased from yesterday’s announcement of [Assassin’s Creed Trailer 2] on the small blackboard.
They were replaced by the number [1], and the announcement now read [Assassin’s Creed 1].
“Ahh-!” She yelled again as if she couldn’t believe what she had seen. “Assassin’s Creed is released?!”
“What?!” Elina also exclaimed on the spot, almost dropping her spicy sticks. She had been sleepless last night with excitement after watching the trailer, wishing that she could sleep on the floor of the shop until Assassin’s Creed was released. To her astonishment, the game was released today!
“Really?!” Many people looked over in disbelief.
Meanwhile, the players in the old shops were also eagerly anticipating the release of Assassin’s Creed since they hadn’t had new single-player games for a long time.
At the same time, they encountered trouble on the highest difficulty level of Resident Evil 2. Some of them could pass the ordinary difficulty level with a dagger, but not the high difficulty level. Trying to pass the highest difficulty level with only a dagger was too depressing.
That was why Nalan Hongwu was a bit idle these days. Song Qingfeng was even more so.
As for Mo Xian and other people of the Nanhua Faction, they were eager to be the first players of any new games.
Hearing the news that the new game was released, they immediately jumped up from the couches and shouted, “Activate it for me! Activate it for me!”
Jiang Xiaoyue also wanted to play the new game. “Boss, I want to play it too!”
The task for the Assassin’s Creed series contained several points. After the game was unlocked, the System showed the requirements for unlocking the sequels after Assassin’s Creed 1.
At this moment, Fang Qi was looking at the information on the System Interface.
After finishing the first task, Mr. Fang found that he not only activated the right to publish Assassin’s Creed 1, but he also got an assassin-shaped prototype badge.
[Prototype Badge: When a game, a movie, or a TV Series has other prototype characters, it can only be activated when all the prototype badges are collected…]
There was more information about prototype badges underneath.
“What’s this thing?” Mr. Fang continued to read, trying to find out the function of this thing. Meanwhile, many people had entered the game.
The first scene that they saw was an image consisting of many genetic sequences which finally formed a round logo.
“Ubisoft?” As a legit researcher, Li Haoran looked at it curiously. “So many genetic sequences? Is this senior named Ubisoft an expert in unlocking the genetic locks?”
By now, the players were quite familiar with the words ‘genetic locks’ even though none of them had truly unlocked it.
Before them was a medieval city. They saw Altair was leaping down from a bell tower to kill his target; they had watched this scene in the trailer.
However, this scene was more detailed compared to that in the trailer, showing how he assassinated the target, used visual illusions to deceive the pursuing soldiers, killed a soldier who was alone, and then vanished into the crowd.
For Sala who had no experience with assassinations, it didn’t look extraordinary, but Elina’s eyes lit up. In the system version, the soldiers were no different from their counterparts in the real world, completely unlike dull NPCs. It was not as easy to dodge as in the original version.
With some simple steps, he had dodged everyone’s eyes in a matter of seconds before finding a chance to leave without a fuss. If the assassins in the real world had possessed such skills, the godly palace wouldn’t have caught any of them in Gray Eagle City even if they botched the mission.
After this interlude, they entered the game.
Instead of the city that they had seen a moment ago, their vision before them turned pale grey as if they had put on a pair of big goggles.
For one moment, they found themselves in that medieval city. In the next moment, their vision turned pale grey again. They felt like they were in a dream.
Then, they saw a huge lab. Hearing their conversation, the players were amazed. “Can this object retrieve the ancestral memories stored in the bloodline?”
“It’s a projector which renders genetic memories in three dimensions.”
What if I told you the human body not only housed an individual’s memories, but the memories of his ancestors as well?
“Genetic memory, if you will. Migration, hibernation, reproduction… How do animals know when and where to go? What to do?”
“Ugh?” Jiang Xiaoyue froze. “Can I display the memories of my ancestors?”
Li Haoran was also astonished. !!?? I can’t believe that this little game about assassins holds such a piece of cutting-edge black technology!
After all, everyone in this world had powerful ancestors if they traced back far enough into the ancient times.
The players in the new shop were at a loss for words.
They felt puzzled as they couldn’t understand what was going on, but they were awed at the same time!
