Chapter 367 Breath of the Wilderness

Zhang Yuan has been in a good mood recently.

Originally, as a UP host in the life area, she has reached a bottleneck in her career.

Whether it is the video completion rate or the click rate, it is just average, and there is a slight downward trend.

But unexpectedly, the idea of ​​giving her boyfriend a Switch for his birthday became popular after she posted a video.

She can't remember how long it has been since she was on the hot list of the website!

Even this time for her boyfriend's birthday, she didn't plan to post a video.

The two have been together for five years, and many similar videos have been posted during these five years, and old fans are tired of watching them.

As a result, a big surprise came this year.

Now, playing Switch is no longer exclusive to her boyfriend, she also likes this machine.

Now it has become a habit to exercise at home with a fitness ring every day.

Playing games and exercising at the same time, both are good.

It's just a pity for the annual gym membership card that has been torn into pieces.

Since I got it, I haven't been there many times.

The fitness ring is worthy of its name, and it is actually a ring.

At the same time, by using the somatosensory function of the handle and matching it with the fitness ring, many basic exercise functions can be achieved.

That day, I finished exercising at home.

I took a shower and changed clothes.

With the idea of ​​taking a rest, I lay on the sofa and watched short videos.

Maybe because there have been more searches for the Switch console on my mobile phone recently, short video push notifications have rarely appeared related videos.

With a swipe of the finger upward, a new video appeared on the homepage.

"Brothers! I found something very interesting. You can try licking the Switch cartridge. It's sweet and fragrant! Don't thank me. You will come back to thank me after licking it."

Sweet?

The hand that was about to swipe the video paused and clicked on the comment area.

[It's sweet! Thanks to the blogger, I came back to leave a message]

[It tastes really good, fruity, UP where are you? I'll give you the best local specialties]

[Isn't it the taste of toffee? It seems that each cartridge has a different taste.]

[Zelda tastes orange anyway]

"Is this true? Sweet? It can't be the taste of some chemical raw materials? The kind that will make you choke after a bite?"

Zhang Yuan looked at the Switch connected to the base and the TV with some curiosity.

In addition to the game console, there was also a small shelf with three games on it.

One was "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild", one was "Ring Fit Adventure", and the last one was the first third-party game.

I bought them all together.

My job today was to record the content of myself playing games.

After thinking about it, I turned on the device.

Try it!

Take the game.

The outer box is rectangular, with an exclusive logo and the Naughty Cat logo on it.

It is different from the green box of XGame and the blue box of playsquare.

The cartridge box is transparent white, and the sealed film is the color page of the game, which shows the back of a boy, the protagonist of the game, Link.

He held a shield in his left hand, a sword in his right hand, and a longbow on his back, standing on a boulder and looking at the beautiful sunset in the distance.

Below was "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" in white font.

At the same time, the box also stated in a very conspicuous place.

Do not eat! Keep it out of the reach of children!

Open the box.

Although I have never played a game console before, I still have some common sense.

Whether it is XGame or playsquare, they are all game discs. As for whether the disc uses blue light or green light technology, it is unknown. Anyway, the capacity is much larger than the disc I watched on VCD when I was a child.

Switch is different.

There is a small card slot in the box. The carrier of the game is not a disc, but a cassette.

The whole body is black and plastic, with the name of the game on it. There are five copper pieces on the back for reading information, which are a bit like the old memory cards she saw when she was a child.

"I don't eat it, I just lick it, it should be okay?"

Thinking, the tip of the tongue gently licked it.

However, it didn't taste as sweet as honey, fruit, and toffee as imagined.

"yue"

Bitter.

Too bitter!!

Zhang Yuan was completely stunned.

It felt like putting her tongue into concentrated bitter melon juice.

It was so bitter that she even felt like vomiting.

Where was the sweetness of honey?

She rushed to the bathroom.

Rinse your mouth!

Rinse your mouth with water for a long time, and the taste in your mouth will be much less.

After a long silence, pick up the phone.

Leave a message in the comment area.

[Wow!! Really, it's as sweet as honey, but I don't know which smart person discovered this first? ]

A few seconds after the comment was sent, it received some likes.

Then, a comment was replied.

Well, the curse was very ugly.

But Zhang Yuan didn't care. She happily wiped the saliva on the cartridge and put it in the machine.

Recently, I often hear people say that this game is fun.

Today, let's try it!

Since I'm playing at home, I won't play with the Switch, but connect it to the TV.

If you play it on a TV without the base, it actually looks a bit like a tablet.

The game starts.

"Wake up. Wake up."

The call in my ear made the screen go from blurry to clear, and what I saw was a strange ceiling.

Link was lying in a place like a sarcophagus, and the liquid soaked in it gradually faded away. He opened his eyes.

In the cave, there was a blue inscription that barely illuminated the surroundings.

"Is this the tutorial for beginners? It's interesting."

Follow the prompts to get the props, put on the equipment, and walk out of the cave.

The perspective gradually widened and the vision became wider.

Walk to the edge of the cliff.

Mountains, grasslands, forests, lakes, distant volcanoes, city ruins and churches.

Zen-like background music appeared with beautiful scenery. It seemed that there was only Link in the world, with a faint sense of loneliness, but at the same time there was a sense of freedom and joy in the wild in the early morning.

Zhang Yuan was a little dazed and couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's so beautiful."

There are obvious light and dark effects on the screen, and a large number of color blocks are used to show the wild scenery, as if it was hand-painted with a brush, as if looking at a beautiful gouache painting.

Although the cartoon rendering lacks a bit of reality, it is not like some side effects brought by many games with extremely realistic pictures - getting lost and dizzy.

After seeing enough of the beautiful scenery, she started to move freely.

Picking mushrooms along the way, catching a rhinoceros beetle, and looking at the scenery, it was so pleasant.

Since she had only played some casual puzzle games before, and had never played an open world game, she felt fresh in the game.

She wanted to interact with everything she saw.

When she saw a cliff clearly above the lake, she couldn't help but want to jump in and met the first Krog.

Then she swam forward for a while and found a small island in the middle of the lake with a sword stuck in the stone on it.

Zhang Yuan looked at it with joy.

"Sword in the lake? Please call me King Arthur!"

Seeing the ruins of a church, she climbed up excitedly to see what was on it.

Some of the battles she encountered were not difficult, and she could fight them without any pressure at her level of never playing games.

After visiting the surrounding scenery, she followed to the mission point and placed the Shika Stone.

The mechanism was activated, and the eyes outside the temple lit up.

Then, there was a vibration.

Almost at the same time, the Hyrule continent in the game and the handle in my hand shook at the same time.

With the vibration of the handle, high towers rose from the plains, snow-capped mountains, volcanoes, and hills, and the visual effect was very shocking.

As the towers were unlocked, the map around them was also lit up.

Following the main line step by step, I first came to a temple.

Here, Link learned to use the power of magnets.

You can move metal plates to pave the road, move metal blocks to push away debris, and open metal doors.

After walking out of the temple, with such interesting abilities, I suddenly found that many items that I didn’t know how to take before had ideas.

Can’t get the underwater treasure chest?

It doesn’t matter, if it’s metal, you can use a magnet to suck it up and take it.

Can’t break the metal box?

You can use a magnet to suck it up to a high place and let it break by itself to get the things inside.

Want to catch fish but can’t catch it?

Suck the metal box to kill the fish and pick it up.

Can't get the treasure chest on the high platform in the middle of the water?

Use a magnet to suck a metal plate and walk up to get it.

Almost every few steps, a small puzzle appears.

The difficulty is moderate, and you can solve it by thinking more, and you won't be stuck for a long time.

But there is no text prompt what to do, you need to think by yourself.

I got a lot of rockets in the treasure chest.

Thinking about it again, it seems that there was a monster that I couldn't beat and bullied her just now?

Thinking about it, just equip the rocket and kill it!

The monster is now strolling leisurely by the river.

Zhang Yuan switched to the bow and arrow according to the previous operation prompts, and shot the rocket.

However, it is always inevitable to be in a hurry when using the handle for the first time.

This time, it didn't hit.

However, this time it ignited the firewood pile next to the monster.

Before I had time to regret, I saw the monster being ignited by a handful of flames, and it was very funny.

Seeing that look, I couldn't help but smile.

But it didn't last long. The monster got over the initial panic and ran to the river to put out the flames on its body with water.

Then, it came fiercely.

"Ah! Don't come over!"

Seeing that the monster still had some blood, he was about to run away, but then he thought.

Water?

Can it freeze?

Didn't I have an ice arrow just now?

Thinking of this, he quickly switched the type of arrow and shot an ice arrow.

Sure enough.

After this shot, the monster was directly frozen in place.

"Can it be like this?"

With the help of such weapons, it is naturally not difficult to defeat the monster.

After happily harvesting the spoils, he continued to run the map.

In the next temple, I learned how to use bombs.

There are two types of bombs.

The round ones can roll and can be used as artillery shells.

The square ones stay in place and can be used for fixed-point blasting.

As for the role of the bomb, it can provide a shock wave-like energy, which can blow up some precarious walls, and can also be used as some power sources.

In the third temple, I learned how to stop time.

It can stop a rotating gear and stop a rolling boulder halfway up a slope.

At the same time, time-stopped items can also accumulate kinetic energy. After using time stop on a giant that cannot be knocked away, kinetic energy can be accumulated by repeatedly hitting it. At the moment of release, all the kinetic energy will burst out instantly and fly out directly.

It suddenly dawned on her again.

She walked out of the temple and looked around excitedly.

It didn't take long to find a huge stone that was obviously a little strange.

Use the skills she just learned, stop time, hit it repeatedly, and release the time stop.

The huge stone flew out instantly, revealing the treasure chest below.

A wave of very powerful monsters, which can be killed by accumulating kinetic energy by using time stop.

In the fourth temple, she learned to make ice.

The gate that can be lifted up and cannot be opened can block the attack of long-range enemies, and can lift herself up to reach some places that are difficult to reach.

After walking out of the temple, there are some puzzles waiting for her to solve.

An ice lake that will continue to lose blood when entering. You can stand up ice blocks in the lake as a foothold, and then raise the ice blocks to lift up the treasure chest inside and get it.

Although it is just the initial platform, that is, the teaching of the novice village has just ended.

But looking at the time, three hours have passed.

The various interesting puzzles on the map are like magic. No matter how you explore, you will never get bored, and you will look forward to what interesting things will appear in the next scene.

In a temple.

I want to enter a door to get treasure.

You can use the power of magnets to open the door, but the door will close quickly after opening. At this time, you can use ice to block the door and leave a space to enter.

If you look more carefully, you can also use bombs to blow up the stones next to the door, so that the door panel of the iron door can be removed and used as a bridge by magnets to get a treasure chest on a high place.

But in fact, if you look closely, you can also find that the treasure chest is iron, and you can use magnets to suck it down.

Many puzzles have more than one solution, and there is no fixed idea, but you can use any way you want.

For example, in another temple, in a puzzle that requires stepping on a mechanism and then passing immediately.

You can use nearby props to press the mechanism, or you can use the time stop skill after stepping on it to prohibit the mechanism, and then take the opportunity to pass.

You can also test your operation and the timing of releasing the mechanism to pass the level.

Sometimes you get stuck on a puzzle, switch a few abilities and try them out, and suddenly you will have a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

After walking out of the initial platform, the sea and sky are wide open and free for birds to fly.

I want to see here and there.

I want to visit this temple and challenge that monster.

This can also be moved, and that can be ignited.

I don’t know how long it took.

“Yes! Another one is solved.”

Just as I was about to go to the next place with great interest, I suddenly heard a silent greeting.

“Hey, Yuanyuan, aren’t you hungry? Aren’t you going to eat yet?”

Zhang Yuan was startled and turned her head to find that her boyfriend had sat next to her without knowing when.

“Hey, hey, I said, don’t scare me, no, why did you go home so early?”

Her boyfriend didn’t say anything, but just silently turned on the screen of his mobile phone to signal.

It was already 7:30.

Zhang Yuan looked at the game with some lingering thoughts, and asked cautiously: "Or, after I pass this temple, we can go to eat?"

The boyfriend thought about it, it was just a temple, and it would only take a few minutes.

"Okay."

But, it was obvious that he was naive.

Five minutes later.

"Yuanyuan, shall we eat?"

"Wait a minute, I'll defeat the big guy in front!"

Ten minutes later.

"Shall we eat?"

"I'll go after I open that tower."

Fifteen minutes later.

"Yuanyuan."

"Uh, or you can eat first? I don't seem to be very hungry."

The voice of nagging about eating finally disappeared.

An hour later, there was a hot takeaway on the coffee table in the living room.

Now there are no worries.

I can play the game more well!

Well, let's go to the building in the distance to have a look.

Puzzle solving, fighting, chemical reactions brought about by the combination of various elements.

I don't know how long I played.

"Hey, Yuanyuan."

The boyfriend's voice sounded again in my ears.

Zhang Yuan was stunned to see her boyfriend looking at her speechlessly in his pajamas.

Is it time to go to bed?

"Ah! Sorry, sorry, I saw it was still light outside, I thought it was still early, I'll go wash my face and go to bed!"

"You should go to bed. However, the sky is still light not because it's still early, but because I woke up."

Woke up?

After saying this, Zhang Yuan couldn't help yawning, and a wave of sleepiness came over her.

"Wait, no way. Is it now..."

"Yes, it's almost dawn. You played all night." (End of this chapter)
