【Please select the game mode you wish to join.】
【You have selected Single Player Survival Mode (Normal), please confirm.】
【Confirmed. Scenario generation in progress…】
【Loading, please wait.】
“Wel-wel-wel-welcome… to… Thr-thr-thr-thriller… Pa-pa-pa-park.”
Soon after selecting the scenario, the familiar opening came, but this time the voice reading the opening was a slightly harsh electronic voice simulated by software, and it also came with a ghost-like effect.
【Loading complete. You are currently in Single Player Survival Mode (Normal).】
【This mode provides scenario introductions and has a chance to generate side hidden quests and a special worldview.】
【Scenario Completion Reward: Randomly draw a Fine quality equipment.】
【The scenario introduction will be played shortly. The game will start immediately after the playback.】
Thriller Paradise has been open for nearly a year, and according to the summary of the majority of players, the rewards for single-player normal scenarios are 99% of the time one of the following:
1. A Fine quality equipment (with a certain chance of appearing with the words "suitable for current level" or "usable").
2. One to two random jigsaw puzzle cards.
3. One skill.
4. Extra experience points or skill points in proportion to the difficulty.
5. Extra game currency.
Although the game has been updated several times during the year, and Dream Inc. has been constantly adjusting the appearance rate of certain tasks in real time (for example, reducing experience reward tasks when most players on the server do not need to level up; increasing or decreasing game currency tasks when needing to control the exchange rate; increasing skill point reward tasks when there are too many items in the Scare Box), the rewards for normal single-player scenarios are generally not very diverse. Therefore, Brother Jue's completion reward this time can be regarded as satisfactory.
【Here, is the focus of global attention.】
Before long, accompanied by a male voice-over in a "recitation tone," the opening cinematic began to play; Feng Bujue had also lost control of his body and entered "viewing mode."
The scene began with a strange set of DNA sequence alignment diagrams, as well as some images that could only be observed with a microscope.
"Hmm… is it a scenario with the X-Men worldview?" Feng Bujue quickly reacted before he had even finished hearing the first sentence.
【Here, is the forefront of agricultural technology.】
"Huh?" However, the second sentence of the voice-over made Brother Jue faintly feel a trace of strangeness.
【Here, is located the global Fortune 500 company—the Jin Ke La production base…】
"What the heck?" As a result, Brother Jue was completely shocked when the first half of the third sentence came out.
At the same time, the cinematic visuals were changing in conjunction with the voice-over: first cutting to a few aerial shots of large cities clipped from who knows where, then suddenly inserting an extremely low-quality slide image of a towering skyscraper.
【…American Santiago International Agricultural Group】 (For your personal safety, please do not search for this company online)
"Hey! Is this really okay?" Feng Bujue shouted in his heart, but this did not stop the voice-over from continuing.
【Here, surrounded by jungles, 5,000 special forces soldiers guard it heavily; every US president, upon taking office, must come here to visit in person.】
【Here… supports American agriculture, leads American agricultural development, influences world agriculture… Flies higher~, goes farther~!】
As the voice-over in the recitation tone passionately read these lines that made people feel ashamed and even suspected of containing grammatical errors, the cinematic also maintained its previous style—a lot of obviously stolen image material spliced together from various unrelated places, combined with the explanation, like special forces, presidents, research institutes… everything was there.
【William, Earl of American Santiago International Agricultural Group, enjoys the same honor as the President of the United States. In every presidential election, whoever Santiago supports will become the strongest presidential candidate.】
"God…" After the initial shock passed, Feng Bujue quickly entered another state, which was feeling a headache about the content he was listening to.
【A small atomic bomb changed the entire situation of World War II…】
"Hmm… in terms of knowledge in geography, politics, physics, history, and other aspects… no… common sense… all so lacking that it makes people feel happy and sympathetic… that's quite a skill." Brother Jue had already entered吐槽 mode (tucao - comment/roast) after hearing this.
【A golden grain of Jin Ke La accelerated the development of global agriculture.】
【Jin Ke La, in the United States' top secret, is ranked first alongside nuclear weapons. It is a nuclear weapon that changes a country's agricultural landscape. Its important significance is self-evident!】
"Without a doubt… the person who wrote this copy is the nuclear weapon of the advertising world… I, this humble one, admit defeat."
【Jin Ke La, the essence extracted from 80 kinds of natural scarce minerals; Jin Ke La, produced by large-scale computer positioning, precisely refined at 30,000 degrees Celsius; the raw materials for 1 kilogram of Jin Ke La cost as much as 5 million US dollars…】
"The word 'value' should be added after 'raw materials,' this copy is really worrying… but, assuming… there really is a refined substance that can withstand temperatures twenty times higher than the melting point of titanium alloy without being vaporized, then a cost of 5 million per kilogram is justifiable."
【…and the amount of resources extracted each year is limited. Jin Ke La, makes fertilizer zero-waste, zero-loss, and zero-evaporation; Jin Ke La, activates nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium deposited in the soil 2 meters below…】
"Wait… this sentence 'limited quantity' has no follow-up after the transition in context? The subsequent content has nothing to do with this sentence, so what's the point of adding this half-sentence here?" The novelist's occupational disease caused Feng Bujue to fall into confusion.
【Jin Ke La, allows farmers around the world to obtain the greatest harvest with the least investment; Jin Ke La, allows 68 countries to achieve agricultural modernization five years ahead of schedule.】
"So the key to agricultural modernization lies entirely in fertilizer…"
【Every day, from the Santiago International Agricultural Group… 3,000 special trains, 1,000 freighters, 500 flights, fully loaded with Jin Ke La, are sent day and night to 129 countries around the world.】
"Not to mention whether the railways, docks, and airports of these 129 countries can withstand the unloading needs of your special trains, freighters, and planes… just talking about this shipping volume… was that sentence 'limited quantity' teasing me?"
【Technology is the primary productive force driving economic development…】
"A company uses 3,000 special trains, 1,000 freighters, and 500 planes every day to transport goods costing 5 million US dollars per kilogram to all parts of the world, and it's still 'fully loaded'… does that kind of world's economy really need development?"
【Fertilizer mixed with Jin Ke La, one bag is as good as two bags! Fertilizer mixed with Jin Ke La, wheat production per mu is 1,800 jin!】
【America, Santiago. American·shengdiyAge~】
When reading this last sentence, the voice-over deliberately used an English accent to read the last two words, as if this was very foreign and high-end.
"shengdiyAge? sandiego?" Feng Bujue only knew of two places that could be translated into Santiago in Chinese, one is San Diego in California, and the other is the capital of Chile, "and it's written as shengdiyAge, read as 上帝压狗 (shang di ya gou - God crushes dogs)?"
Just as Brother Jue's power of吐槽(tucao - comment/roast) gradually increased under the pressure of the headache, the scenario introduction came to an end.
After watching this inexplicable opening cinematic, which seemed like a low-quality advertisement forcibly designed to make people feel intellectually superior, Feng Bujue immediately gained the ability to move.
"Ah… is the teleport point in the jungle…" After standing still, Brother Jue, as usual, first scanned the surrounding environment.
The tall trees, the impenetrable vegetation, the uneven terrain, and the intermittent chirping of birds and beasts… all indicated that this was not a park or anything like that.
【Main Quest Triggered】
The main quest of this scenario also came very decisively. In less than ten seconds, a voice prompt sounded in Feng Bujue's ears.
He opened the quest bar and saw a very clear quest instruction: 【Explore the jungle, find and infiltrate the headquarters of American Santiago International Agricultural Group.】
"Heh… hehe…" Feng Bujue chuckled twice and muttered to himself, "So that's it… in countless parallel universes, there really exists a Jin Ke La universe with a setting even more outrageous than a gag joke?" He shrugged, "Then needless to say, there must be five thousand special forces soldiers in this jungle."
He guessed right…
Just as his voice fell, he heard a series of "da da da" sounds.
In that second, at least three assault rifles opened fire on Feng Bujue simultaneously from three different directions.
