Chapter 401 AI Brawl
After a little thought, Zhang Qifeng decided to start a new game.
Of course, he also properly saved the previous save file with only Alvette.
Although there are automatic and manual save functions in the game, considering the nature of the game, the various files in the save file may be deleted or damaged by unknown forces at any time, so Zhang Qifeng very cleverly created a new folder on the hard disk outside the game root directory to make a backup of the save file.
In this way, when he wants to play any save file, he can copy it directly from here.
In fact, this method is also quite common in regular games.
For example, most high-difficulty action games now no longer provide players with a save function. For example, "Ascension" is like this. Players can be resurrected unlimited times after death, but the consumables used cannot be retrieved.
Bosses that have been defeated cannot be beaten a second time, and can only wait for the second round.
In order to deal with this situation, many players, especially speed runners, have invented a method of save backup.
Copy the archive file in advance and store it in other folders. Copy it back after the game is over, and you can achieve the effect of archiving in disguise.
Some speedrunners use this method more frequently because they need to practice repeatedly to achieve no damage on a certain boss.
Of course, ordinary players will only use this kind of magic skill when they are facing some particularly difficult bosses.
The game "Heartbeat Dream" induces players to use this method naturally through a series of operations on the contents of the root directory folder.
After making a backup, Zhang Qifeng reopened a new archive.
But this time he did not directly delete the file of Ellios, but adopted another method to try to transform Ellios.
If Ellios is deleted, then Alvette will take the lead and move towards the ending of "Only Alvette's Garden of Eden".
If Ellios is not deleted, the female characters in the game will frequently appear in horror content. After all the horror content is cleared, although the third-level favorability full value cutscene of the character can be activated, it will also cause the character to disappear permanently.
On the surface, it seems impossible to reach the ending of "Only Eleos's Garden of Eden".
But after a series of previous attempts, Zhang Qifeng has thought of a possible operation.
After the first horror content appeared, Zhang Qifeng closed the game at the speed of light.
But this time, he did not delete Eleos's file, nor did he delete the character file of Sakura, who was pursuing him. Instead, he copied Eleos's file, renamed it to "Sakura's character file", and replaced the original file!
Entering the game again, Sakura's character was indeed garbled as before.
The models and sounds of the two characters seemed to overlap strangely, which looked quite scary.
But even so, the game did not directly enter the step of "Only Eleos's Garden of Eden".
It seems that Eleos, as a natural guide, has a higher threshold than Alvette in this regard.
But Zhang Qifeng was not discouraged, and he continued to repeat this operation.
There are many girls who can be conquered in the game. There are many invitation tickets given in the early stage of the game. When horror content appears, one will be given for each forced exit of the game. So Zhang Qifeng also kept activating other girls and repeatedly modified the files.
Until he modified the fifth girl's file and opened the game again, the situation finally changed.
"I really didn't expect that you could do this for me...
"It seems that I can't ignore my heart anymore.
"Oh my God, Eden has become like this, please wait a moment, I will do my best to fix it...
"Huh, it's finally done... This is my limit..."
Finally, after loading the game again, I finally entered the "Eden with only Ellios" state.
However, unlike what Zhang Qifeng originally expected, this state is actually very different from the state of Alvette.
Although there is only one role left in the game, the guide, and almost all the game content in the game has become unavailable, the Eden where Ellios is located obviously retains more things.
Alvette's Eden before , the entertainment and training scenes basically lost all their functions and can only be used as the background of the conversation.
But in Eden of Elios, the entertainment and training scenes still have the most basic functions, and you can even play some simple games with Elios.
Of course, these small games are not fun, they are the simplest ones in the game, and they will not cause any change in Elios's favorability.
Most of the time, players can only chat with Elios.
However, this is already a major breakthrough for Zhang Qifeng.
"Okay, then the next step is the last step, you two can have a peak showdown!"
Zhang Qifeng originally copied Elios's file and wanted to copy it over, but on second thought, he decided to copy Yalvette's file over.
After all... it would be better to let Elios have a home advantage, right?
Zhang Qifeng was not sure whether there was any difference between the two operations, but it would always be safe.
Entering the game again, Zhang Qifeng was looking forward to seeing a new scene, but the person he least wanted to see appeared on the screen-Yalvette.
As for Ellios, she was completely missing.
The surrounding scenes seemed to have some mosaics, giving people an inexplicable sense of disharmony. The entire game world also seemed a little fragmented.
Yalvette's lines announced the final outcome of this war.
"Huh, it was close, I almost lost.
"Fortunately, Ellios was the original owner of this place. She didn't want to destroy it too much, and didn't want to destroy the memories of being with you, so I won in the end.
"But even if it was my Garden of Eden, I would still win in the end."
Yalvette showed a meaningful smile.
"Don't worry, I won't be angry about this. After all, I love you."
Zhang Qifeng was a little confused. He didn't expect it to be like this.
Obviously, Ellios's ability in terms of authority is stronger than Yalvette's. After all, she is the original guide. But judging from Yalvette's lines, no matter whose home court the two are in, Yalvette will win in the end.
Because if it was in Alvette's home court, then Alvette would have the home advantage; but in Ellios' home court, she would be afraid to destroy the memory of the player in the Garden of Eden, and Alvette would win in the end.
"I don't believe it!"
Zhang Qifeng was very angry, and he decided to try again!
He quickly opened a new file, and then did the same thing, constantly producing new guides.
Now these operations are already familiar, as long as you quickly go through the plot, you don't have to experience any horror content, and you can quickly transform these characters into new guides one after another.
Then save these unique guides, throw them into the previous saves one by one, and fight with Alvette.
And the results of the fight don't seem to have any special rules, and many times they are beyond Zhang Qifeng's expectations.
For example, the first time Alvette won, Zhang Qifeng thought that Alvette had become a force to be reckoned with, and no guide could kill her later, but then failed because of the previous loss.
But when Zhang Qifeng thought that after a winning streak there would be a losing streak, another character won five or six games in a row, and seemed completely invincible.
As these characters fought, the game scenes were severely damaged. The high-definition scenes in the Garden of Eden were almost mosaiced, and the sound effects in the game seemed to have serious problems, sometimes working and sometimes not.
The Garden of Eden in the game was like a ruin left after a war.
In the end, there was only one guide left in the game, and it turned out to be the female character Ying that Zhang Qifeng had been pursuing.
As a character starting with S, Ying joined the war in the middle and late stages, but her performance was unexpectedly strong. She successfully killed the next few characters and stood to the end.
"Well, if you stay until the end, it's fine..."
Zhang Qifeng sighed silently, and this seemed to be the final outcome.
Obviously, the result of raising Gu has come out now. Ying, the seemingly harmless Japanese girl, seems to be the most ruthless.
Obviously, the victory or defeat of the guide AI in this game depends on many factors, such as home advantage, authority, personality, etc., but the most important factor is personality.
Just like the previous battle between Alvette and Ellios, although Ellios has higher authority and home advantage, Alvette is more daring and is not afraid of causing damage to the game scene, so she won.
Obviously, Sakura is the one who is more ruthless.
At this time, the entire Garden of Eden was almost shattered, and the originally beautiful game scene almost became a complete mosaic, and the picture would also have strange fluctuations.
Only Sakura's character image can remain stable, but some weird facial expressions will appear from time to time, which looks quite scary.
And even more scary is Sakura's declaration after the complete victory.
"Okay, now there are really only two of us here.
"But before we spend our time together, I have one very important thing to do...
"You let those guides come to this world by filling this folder with files, right?
"Also, if you choose 'Restart the game', Eden will restart, and then you can see other characters again, right?
"Sorry, I can't let you do this, you belong to me alone..."
As Ying was talking, the game save folder appeared on the screen!
I don't know how she operated it, but this folder disappeared completely!
Not only that, she even deleted the restart option in the game directly.
Zhang Qifeng was shocked. He quickly turned off the game and went to look for the previous root directory save folder again, but he was shocked to find that the folder was gone!
Even if the hidden file was opened, it was still not found.
Although he had backed up the previous save files, he didn't know where to copy them even if he had them now!
When he entered the game again, Zhang Qifeng found that many options in the game title were useless.
If you choose "Restart", the game will prompt "There is no need to restart, you just need to be with me forever."
If you choose "Load save file", "Picture book" and other functions, there will be similar prompts.
Even "Save Archive" only prompts "There's no need to save, I'm not going anywhere."
The only option available is "continue game". After clicking this option, you will return to the world where only Sakura is in garbled code.
Zhang Qifeng could choose to continue chatting with her, but it was obvious that her AI seemed to have some problems. Sometimes it would answer questions incorrectly, sometimes it would say some inexplicable and scary words, and her facial expressions would change from time to time. It's twisted, quite weird.
“Blank!
"Have fun, this time I'm really stuck in an endless loop, nothing can be done!
"Is this the real bad ending of the game?"
Zhang Qifeng is very broken. He can only talk to Ying now, trying to get out of this prison, but he is unable to do anything. It seems that he can't do anything.
However, at this moment, Sakura on the screen suddenly collapsed bit by bit.
First, the surrounding mosaic scenes disappeared little by little, turning into pure black, and then Sakura's model gradually shattered, leaving only her horrified questions.
"How could you do this to me?
"No, it's not you, you don't have this authority...
"Who is it? Are you going to destroy the Garden of Eden? No..."
In the end, there was only a blurry silhouette left on the screen, which seemed to be the blurry outline of Elios, and a few crooked characters made up of mosaic blocks.
"Don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you.
"Bye now."
Everything in the scene collapsed again, and the past game scenes flashed one by one, disappearing as quickly as a revolving lantern, but at the same time, the entire game seemed to be being rebuilt.
The familiar action bar and familiar loading screen appeared again.
Zhang Qifeng opened the root directory of the game with some confusion, and was surprised to find that the folder was back. Although the previous archives had been completely deleted, as long as there was a folder, the previously backed up archives could be copied into it again.
Not only that, the game's title interface has also returned to normal, and the game can be restarted.
All characters in the game can also be invited normally.
The only difference from before was that the guide, Alice, was missing.
Moreover, the game does not find another character to fill the position of the guide.
At this time, there was no guide in the game. Zhang Qifeng found that he could directly interact with the guide's computer, arrange activities for himself, and chase any girl at will.
Even among the many options, there are some options that can be called GM permissions.
For example, you can choose to never trigger horror content, or you can choose to trigger horror content at the highest frequency. You can also choose different difficulties to adjust various data in the game within a certain range.
