Chapter 1159 The Changed Game

Xia Shou's eyes darted around slightly as he asked, "You seemed quite anxious before. What, has the problem been solved? Didn't you say you had to come to An Gang's house with us? How come you seem so relaxed now that you're back?"

"Hehe, I guess it's resolved." Jiang Wengao scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.

He dared not say it was because of his own merit, since Xia Shou from An Gang's family had also gone, and both Xia Shou and he were variables that the game could not observe.

However, Jiang Wengao believes that he has contributed to the game to some extent, so he thinks that the future changes in the game should also be closely related to him.

After returning from An Gang's house, the future fifty years later in the game, which was originally terrible, has completely changed. It is no longer in the extremely chaotic state it was before, and the Control Bureau, which should have been completely destroyed, has returned.

Furthermore, life in the future has become quite good. The management of sudden and abnormal events by the Control Bureau has been greatly optimized and improved. From discovery to resolution of ordinary emergencies, a streamlined industrial process has been formed, which greatly reduces casualties among ordinary people.

Fifty years later, the main storyline of the game, "The Fall of Kyoto," can be completed with surprising ease!
It's important to know that in the original game, preventing Kyoto from sinking was the main quest, but the best possible outcome for this mission was simply to escape Kyoto and then witness its fall.

It's fair to say that Kyoto Sinks is a game destined for a bad ending. The main enjoyment of the story lies in the exploration process, and the final outcome is pretty much the same: either you sink with the city or you escape Kyoto.

But this time, after returning from Angang's house, Kyoto, which was supposed to sink in the game, was actually able to be stopped!
Even during the walkthrough, the hints of obstruction are very obvious. Although you need to complete many very difficult side quests, as long as you complete the side quests, various unfamiliar key characters will appear to help you complete the abnormal suppression that was originally impossible.

The fall of Kyoto in the game is just a superficial representation, and can actually be considered an open ending.

Throughout the game, players are constantly reminded that an unparalleled catastrophe is about to strike, and the key to stopping this catastrophe is to prevent Kyoto from sinking.

Ultimately, it was inevitable that the players who escaped the city would look back at the sunken city, which was actually giving the players in front of their computers a positive psychological suggestion: greater disasters and challenges are coming, but at least this time you have escaped, and perhaps there will be a turning point in the future.

As for the specific disaster, the game never mentions it, only repeatedly emphasizes the horror of the disaster and the importance of Kyoto.

In the final scene of the game, extremely terrifying strange occurrences will appear throughout Kyoto, with one anomaly after another emerging.

Players who maximize their attributes will have to fight against these monsters, anomalies, and several of the most rapidly spawning apocalyptic monsters in an almost endless series of battles.

The conventional route involves the protagonist dying in battle, followed by a time shift in the narrative, where the voice of someone many years later tells the protagonist about the immense contributions he made, and then the story ends.

The escape ending involves defeating several bizarrely powerful monsters and escaping Kyoto with important companions, thus reaching the final conclusion.

Because the final battle of the game features the bosses from all the side quests that players failed to complete, the number of them is unimaginable.

In single-player mode, if players focus on completing side quests in the early stages, they may inflict irreversible damage on their characters at various points, resulting in a weakened final combat strength.

Simply put, this mechanism was never designed to allow players to win.

But after returning from Angang's house, the opening of the dream game's plot changed a lot.

The optimization of the Bureau's system and the enhancement of its capabilities are only one aspect. The most important change is that Su Yue, the only survivor of the three parts from fifty years ago, has gone into seclusion!
Yes, Sister Su from my dream has gone into seclusion!
Furthermore, all three predecessors who should have died out are still alive and have all gone into seclusion. The one who is active on the front line is Brother Bai's nephew, Gray Rain!
Upon discovering this dramatic change, Jiang Wengao was incredibly excited. With extreme elation, he tirelessly searched for ways to contact the three elders within the game. However, from the beginning to the end of the game, he was unable to meet any of his real-life acquaintances in the game; at most, they could only exchange letters.

However, he's read so many legendary stories about real people that his eyes are practically calloused.

What about the Ninja God suppressing and reshaping the Forbidden Forest...? The Fate Cube twists the fate of the pillars of humanity, forcibly leveling the playing field in the earth-shattering battle between the Control Bureau and other extraordinary organizations...?

The prophet Kehen repeatedly averted world-ending crises through prophecy; Mo Ying directly recreated the Orchid Pavilion, using calligraphy to transform paintings, taking advantage of the time barrier, and temporarily erecting a ladder on the seven-branched tree with scrolls, completely changing the Bureau of Control's strategy and policy towards the old history.

And so on, and so forth.

Judging from the history left by the Bureau of Control, Jiang Wengao felt that they had made the Bureau of Control quite invincible fifty years ago, which greatly reduced the gloomy and desperate atmosphere in the game.

Furthermore, in this game, he can entrust a large number of powerful figures he has never met in the game before to assist in suppressing the strange creatures that have resurfaced in various places.

This resulted in a significant reduction in the number of bosses during the final battle in the fall of Kyoto.

This also allowed him to force a series of attacks, clear all the checkpoints, and use force to prevent the fall of Kyoto.

In the final ending of this route, the player-controlled character will live together with the female character they like.

And the comrades who fought alongside them all achieved a very happy ending.

When Jiang Wengao finished the game in his dream, he was shocked.

Frankly speaking, in terms of gameplay, the updated Kyoto Fall is much more boring than the original, because it lacks that high-pressure atmosphere.

However, precisely because the game represents the future of reality, the ease with which he played it made Jiang Wengao extremely happy!
In games, everyone naturally hopes to overcome various difficulties and ultimately achieve their dreams.

But in reality, everyone naturally hopes to achieve their dreams without any difficulties.

Therefore, the revamped game is exactly what he wanted to see.

But... he didn't know how, after the version update, he was able to inexplicably reach the final ending.

He had no idea which condition he had triggered that made the future fifty years from now suddenly better.

So he spent a lot of time looking for the key turning points in the plot.

Finally, he discovered the key from the few words spoken by the three people!
If I'm not mistaken, the key lies in the book that Su Yue often sees, the book "The Season When the Stars Fall"!
That is, the book that Xia Shou came out of.
