MTL - Number One Player-Chapter 67 Climb and Save
Acrophobia is a disease, but it is treatable.
The fastest way to treat acrophobia is real shock therapy, which is to take the patient with acrophobia to a height that can cause terror, and face the impact of high altitude. .
Shang Yinhe felt that he was experiencing such a real shock therapy.
After hanging in the center of the building three times in a row and unable to climb up, which led to the end of the system level countdown, Shang Yinhe's mentality also became Buddhist.
Aren't you afraid of heights?
Like he is now, after forced desensitization a few times, he should be able to recover soon
After all, under the mandatory requirements of the game world for customs clearance, he has now learned to edit videos (really?), actual combat, and fast parkour. Seeing now, the system has to cure his hidden fear of heights. .
Hehe, I always feel that if this continues, maybe he will become an almighty with no weaknesses.
The first time he climbed the building, Shang Yinhe could only climb to the 15th floor; the second time, he climbed to the 20th floor with difficulty; the third time, he climbed to the 25th floor.
Coincidentally, Shang Yinhe has been able to raise the height of five layers almost every time, and the progress can be said to be very obvious.
Slowly, slowly, after getting familiar with this state of seeing the mountains and mountains, the height of Ling Jue doesn't seem so terrifying.
The strong wind around him suddenly turned into an intimate touch from that wild tearing feeling, helping him to climb up.
- In fact, with Shang Yinhe's own [Blessing of Wind] ability, the wind around him should have been a help to him, not a resistance.
When he was running on the flat ground, the wind around him had been assisting him to move forward. Why did the wind become a factor hindering him when it came to climbing tall buildings?
The reason is very simple, just because of psychological factors, Shang Yinhe turned everything around him into terror.
The high-level whining wind also turned into a big villain in his mind.
But now, the halo of the spiritual filter has faded, and the wind around him is clearly helping it, assisting him, and helping him climb up more easily and quickly.
Ha, come on, come on! Challenge higher heights!
25 floors, 28 floors, 32 floors, 36 floors…
Shang Yinhe didn't know how many times he was doing the first challenge.
He repeated over and over again the course of running in urban parkour, rescuing a three-story building, and climbing high-rise buildings.
When he was above the sky, the concept of climbing time and the number of challenges became blurred. In the unmanned sky, only the strong wind accompanied him and overcome the obstacles in his heart.
For him now, high altitude almost no longer constitutes a sense of fear.
If it weren't for the fact that the mobile phone was not provided in the game, he really wanted to hang it at an altitude of 100 meters and take a selfie of himself.
—Hey, you don’t need to provide a selfie function, but a screenshot function is fine.
- Forget it, I can only wait until the video is released, and then go and take a screenshot of the picture in the video.
Time and time again, without carrying any ropes and equipment, Shang Yinhe was on top of this tall building, quickly climbing and challenging.
With the corner of his eye, he paid attention to every landing point, following the movements of his body and advancing with the wind.
Finally, this time he successfully climbed to the 55th floor!
That is where the rescue site is located.
Through the translucent floor-to-ceiling glass of the upper floors, you can see the faceless people in the building densely lying on the glass curtain wall, yelling at him, waving their hands frantically, and performing various body movements.
However, to Shangshang Yinhe, their shouts were all meaningless garbled characters, as if they had been silenced by the system.
Shang Yinhe ignored the incomprehensible voices, ordered the glass, and waved to the faceless people inside to step back.
The little faceless people seemed to have accepted the meaning of his actions, and they shouted back, leaving a space for Shang Yinhe.
Shang Yinhe took a look, then grabbed the fulcrum on the high-rise with his left hand, and hit his right shoulder with a strong side-shoulder. With a bang, he broke the glass of the high-rise and rolled into the 55th-floor building.
He looked around and saw that on one side of the 55th floor, a pot of spider plants, which was probably used for decoration, was growing wildly. It completely blocked the passage downstairs, and even entangled a person, revealing only his pair of suit trouser legs that were still struggling on the outside.
Shang Yinhe hurried forward and tore the leaves of Chlorophytum with powerful force, and rescued the faceless man who was trapped to the point of suffocation.
He handed the frail faceless man who had just been rescued to the person next to him and began to think about how to rescue him.
In such a high-altitude 55-story building, it is almost impossible to make any curtains to save people.
Shang Yinhe thought for a while, and found that he seemed to have the only way to tear up the evolved plants and clear the downstairs passage.
But fortunately, it seems that the evolutionary version of the spider plant this time grows much slower than the previous evolutionary version of the big tree.
Shang Yinhe tore for a long time, and finally managed to clear a hole in the safe passage leading downstairs.
He waved to the faceless people, motioning them to hurry up.
At the same time, he is still working hard to continue tearing the leaves of the evolutionary spider plant to maintain the passage of life.
Finally, when there were still three or four minutes left in the 30-minute countdown, the faceless people on the 55th floor ran away.
Shang Yinhe just breathed a sigh of relief when the system's voice sounded in his ear:
"The second rescue site has been rescued."
"The novice guide is officially over."
Shang Yinhe: "…"
Shang Yinhe let out a long, helpless sigh.
After working so hard for so long, he finally completed the novice guide.
Hehe, that's awesome!
However, he was considered to have completed the two rescue locations in the first level, and the system gave a higher score than the original "F-" evaluation:
"Time out."
"The checkpoint is being settled..."
"Number of successful rescuers: 59/400"
"Evaluation of this level: D-"
"This level challenge does not meet the minimum clearance level of C-level, and the next level cannot be unlocked. Please try again."
Although I still haven't been able to successfully clear the level, this time the evaluation has reached the "D-" level! Work hard and complete a rescue location mission, maybe you can pass the first level!
- It turns out that he thinks too much.
This game is definitely not that simple.
Without the novice guide, the difficulty of the game is greatly increased. After a short level preview session, what appeared in front of Shang Yinhe was a huge city full of people.
He didn't know where the disaster had happened or how to plan his route.
He could only run around the city at a loss, like a headless fly with no direction, bumping everywhere.
After 30 minutes of a level challenge, Shang Yinhe didn't save more than one person except for the two places that the familiar novice guided him!
This, this increase in difficulty is a bit exaggerated!
Shang Yinhe took a deep breath and clicked [Restart].
This time, he tried to find other rescue locations in the city from a bird's-eye view in the brief level preview session in the early stage.
…Without success, he found nothing.
Again: still found nothing.
Again: still nothing is found.
After all, the level preview session is only 3 minutes, which is too short, and he is not used to quickly browsing such a large field of view map, and the rescue location is not marked on the map. It is entirely up to him to observe by himself. In the end, let He got nothing.
When I tried helplessly for the fourth time, I felt that I had almost searched the entire city of Shang Yinhe, and finally found a place where evolutionary plants were overflowing in a corner of the city.
Run, save, run, save, run, save.
Barely stuck in time, Shang Yinhe successfully rescued all the people in the three locations.
"drop!"
"Time out."
"The checkpoint is being settled..."
"Number of successful rescues: 73/400"
"Evaluation of this level: C+"
"Congratulations on successfully clearing this level, the next level has been opened."
"Based on your review, you got a star."
"The [Quick Rescue] exchange system has been opened, and stars can be exchanged."
- Wow, the redemption system!
Shang Yinhe likes this the most!
If it weren't for the talent system in [Long Live the Anchor], at his own level, it would be almost impossible to edit an S-level video; if it weren't for the level store in [Death Labyrinth], he wouldn't be able to clear the tenth level without taking any damage.
Shang Yinhe decisively opened his Devil King book and turned to the "Exchange Ability" page.
The number of "owned stars" on the first line of the page has changed from 0 to 1, and three talent trees stretch out below.
The first branch of the talent tree is the ability of the rescue department. At first glance, it is known that it is assisting in the rescue.
It includes [Plant Nemesis], which is specially designed to speed up the processing of branches and leaves of evolutionary creatures, [Fairy Beanstalk], which is described as being able to grow into a towering tree after being planted, and even some combat skills.
The second branch of the talent tree is the ability of speed, which can assist in faster progress.
It includes the [Portable Glider] that glides in the air for a short time, the [Spider Silk Launcher] that is somewhat similar to Spider-Man's ability to dangle in the city, and the [Route Intuition] that assists in route planning.
The third branch of the talent tree is the small map ability.
It needs to exchange the first ability [Open Small Map] in the branch to unlock all the related abilities of the small map below, including enhancing the perception range, adding rescue signs, adding hostile signs, etc.
In addition, there is a [Re-Exchange] button in the upper right corner of the page, with the small note as [Allow all stars to be re-exchanged].
-Oh? Allow redemption?
—Doesn’t that mean that you can exchange your abilities at will, and wave at will?
Since it is possible to do it all over again, Shang Yinhe will no longer hesitate. If you find that you cannot pass the customs after exchanging the ability, it is a big deal to exchange it again.
He looked at the number of redemption stars required for each ability, and then looked at his poor star, and finally, exchanged an ability that seemed to be quite useful:
[Open minimap].
