Along with the promotional text, there was also a promotional illustration.The illustration depicted a large city nestled among mountains, with magnificent buildings and black tiles on the roofs, full of the style of ancient Zenia. The sky was like blood with the setting sun, and a man with fluttering clothes was riding a crane and soaring above the nine heavens, in the style of a proper immortal."Want to understand the true meaning of life? Want to live a wonderful life?" Alex muttered these words, but there was no fluctuation in his heart.In addition to being an author, he is also an old bookworm with more than 10 years of reading experience. Isn't the promotional text in this industry just borrowing the words of the founder of the infinite stream novel school?I do want to understand the true meaning of life and live a wonderful life. Show me, but don't let me down.As he thought about this, Alex extended a finger and casually tapped the screen.Alex was still quite interested in games of the fairy-tale genre. Every man who has read a fairy-tale novel has a fairy-tale dream in his heart, dreaming of being able to slay demons, fly through the sky, catch stars and the moon, live forever, and laugh at the mortals.However, this is ultimately just an unattainable dream.Most of the fairy-tale mobile games on the market have crude graphics, and the game modes are almost all carved out of the same mold, with no innovation. The recharge port is placed in the most conspicuous position on the phone screen, shining with light and color!The meaning is clear: if you want to become powerful, just recharge!As long as you recharge enough, VIP 15 is not a dream, and equipment, wings, mounts, and gems are all not a dream! You can definitely dazzle the titanium alloy eyes of those idiot players!Alex has seen too many of these mobile games with fairy-tale themes.Therefore, although he is quite interested in fairy-tale games, Alex doesn't really have high expectations for this game called "World of Spirits".He just desperately wants to change his current situation and find something to pass the time.As Alex's finger pointed at the screen, the question "Download this game?" appeared. Yes.Downloading the game for you...The download interface appeared, and the game was being downloaded at a speed of 5MB/S.Alex looked at the size of the game, a full 3.15G!Generally, xianxia mobile games are only 200-300M in size, so this was the first time Alex had seen a mobile game of this size.3.15 gigabytes of game data is relatively common in PC games, but in mobile games, this is considered a major production. This made Alex's heart secretly feel a hint of anticipation for this "World of Spirits".After waiting patiently for a moment, the game finally finished downloading."Game download complete.""Game installation complete.""Do you want to run it now? Yes, No."Alex clicked on the "Yes" option.The game was launched, and after the screen went dark for three seconds, a line of golden text appeared on the dark screen."The World of Spirits will officially open at 9 pm, so please be patient."Below is a countdown, 11 minutes and 39 seconds.It's only 11 minutes, not 11 days, so just wait.Switch to your browser and search for "World of Spirits". What comes up is a novel that has been left unfinished for a long time, with only seven chapters.As a professional author, Alex is disgusted by this kind of unfinished author and unfinished novel.I said, big brother, don't you know how difficult it is to come up with a title for a new book these days? If you write a few hundred thousand words, it's fine to take up a good title, but if you get carried away and write a chapter or a few chapters that take up a title, it's just like taking up the toilet seat and not pooping.Apart from this eunuch novel, Alex also found some random stuff, but there was not a single piece of news about the game "World of Spirits".This shouldn't be the case, right? After all, it is a game that occupies the recommended position on the app homepage, and it doesn't even have this much heat?The 11 minutes passed quickly.The countdown on the black screen finally cleared to zero.A line of big, gold letters appeared: "Welcome to the World of Spirits!"The screen went dark, but soon some light appeared again.It was very dark, and he could only vaguely make out some nearby scenery.A prompt popped up: "Please align your face with the front camera of the phone."Alex did as he was told and aligned his face with the phone's lens.He was curious. He had played so many games, and none of them had required this when the game was 'initialized'.Prompt: "Character information collection is complete. In the future, when you log in to the World of Spirits, you will be able to do so without an account or password."Before Alex could react, another prompt popped up: 'Please enter your in-game name.""Alex."Alex typed in his in-game name very fluently. The name "Alex" was similar to his real name, and he had always used it when playing games.After clicking to confirm, no other prompts popped up.The world in the game was a little dark, so Alex tried sliding his finger across the screen a few times. As his finger slid across the screen, the night scene displayed on the screen smoothly changed along with his finger.This was actually a first-person 3D game!If you look closely, you will notice that the screen is rendered in a realistic style, very detailed and three-dimensional, without any sense of roughness. In terms of graphics alone, it is definitely among the top-notch mobile games Alex has ever played!Not to mention anything else, just the graphics of this game are quite satisfying.At least Alex is very satisfied with it.Alex immediately perked up, braced himself, and began to adapt to the game.For an experienced gamer like Alex, it doesn't take long to get used to a new game.Soon, Alex had mastered the basic controls.This really is a first-person 3D game.At this point, the environment in the game, like reality, is at night.A full moon hangs high in the sky, spreading its bright light across the land.The surrounding vegetation is lush, and from it you can hear the clear chirping of insects and the slight rustling of leaves in the evening breeze.In front of you is a winding country path that winds into the distance.In the distance, you can faintly see glimmers of light, the lights of thousands of homes.Obviously, in that direction there is a small human settlement, probably a village.Following this forest path, I should be able to go to that village in the distance, right? Alex thought to himself.Under his control, his character began to walk step by step along this narrow forest path.The screen image began to shake, and at the same time, Alex could hear the distinct sound of footsteps as his character walked.Everything seemed so real.As the character walked, lifting his feet and swinging his arms, Alex saw that his character was not only unarmed, but also barefoot, with no shoes on his feet.Walking step by step along this path, it took almost 20 minutes before Alex got close to the place that was glowing with a little light.This was indeed a village, and at the entrance of the village stood an old stone tablet.The words "Peace Village" were engraved in red paint on the stone tablet.The moonlight in the game was very bright, so Alex could see the three characters on the old stone tablet very clearly.Peace Village, Alex's previous guess was not wrong, this is indeed a village.Alex controlled the character and continued to walk forward.A paragraph of text flowed across the top of the screen:"Successfully entered Peace Village, character attribute interface opened."After the text had passed, Alex noticed that at the bottom right of his phone screen, where there had been nothing before, there was now a small icon – character attributes.Alex casually clicked on the icon, and suddenly a translucent interface popped up.On the left side of the interface was a 3D character model that could be rotated left and right. The character model looked lifelike and had a very realistic feel.It was a young man with empty hands, bare feet, and wearing only a pair of grey underpants. The young man was generally thin, and his face was almost exactly the same as Alex's...exactly the same!Alex couldn't help but be shocked. He couldn't believe it, and rubbed his eyes with his hands, moving closer and continuing to look at the screen of his phone.This was not an illusion; this face was indeed exactly the same as his...exactly the same!Why was this happening?Alex was first shocked, but soon he felt relieved.He remembered that before entering the game, the game had asked him to align his face with the front camera of the phone, and later there was a prompt saying "character information collected".Obviously, his appearance had been collected by the game.When the game created the character, it created a character for him based on his real appearance.After figuring this out, the shock in Alex's heart turned into wonder.This is incredible...Is this some kind of black technology?This is much more interesting than face-smoothing.Have games come this far?On the left is a 3D character model of the character that looks exactly like Alex, and on the right are some of the character's most basic data:Name: AlexGender: MaleRace: HumanTitle: NoneStrength: AverageAttributes: Constitution 67, Strength 68, Dexterity 74Skills: NoneBloodline: NoneNote: Constitution affects physical fitness, endurance, and resistance to negative states. Strength affects destructive power, explosive power, and instantaneous explosive power. Agility affects speed and reaction speed.These stats are pretty normal, and compared to similar games, there's nothing special about them.Alex wasn't in a hurry to enter Peace Village, so he quit the game and clicked on the app store app that came with his phone.He was curious to find out which game company had designed this game.The game company behind a game with such exquisite graphics and a lot of black technology is definitely not some unknown small company, it must be a big company.Unfortunately, the game interface of "World of Spirits" is really simple, and even when starting up, there is no information or logo from any game company.So Alex wanted to look for some information about the game "World of Spirits" in the app store app.After opening the app store app, "World of Spirits" was still on the homepage as a top recommendation.Alex tried clicking on the promotional image of "World of Spirits".A prompt popped up: "You have successfully downloaded the game, no need to download it again."No matter how Alex tried, he could not enter the game area of 'World of Spirits'.When Alex tried the other games at the top, he could access their game areas by clicking on the promotional icons at the top. In the game areas, he could see a series of information about the games, such as their sizes, version information, game company names, screenshots, game packages, and game reviews.However, this was not possible for World of Spirits.Alex tried a different method. In the app store app, he tried searching for the words "World of Spirits". To his surprise, he was unable to search for the existence of "World of Spirits"!A game that is on the homepage but not searchable in the app store app? What's going on? Is there a bug?There must be a bug.Although this is rare, it is not unusual for this to happen, so there is no need to panic.Alex exited the app store app with some regret, opened the browser that came with his phone, and searched the internet for information about "World of Spirits".The reason why he couldn't find any information about the World of Spirits before was because it hadn't been launched yet.Now, perhaps he could find some information about it online.
