CHAPTER 446: CHAPTER 160: OFFICIAL WEBSITE GOES LIVE, GLOBAL CRAZE (PART 5)
A large part of the map is marked with blinking dots of various colors. Clicking on a dot brings up detailed information about the area, including monster distribution, monster types, resource types, and more.
Tong Xin discovered that the map design is very thoughtful, allowing players to intuitively see the progress of their exploration and development of the world.
There is a zoom toolbar at the bottom right corner of the map, designed to look like an ancient stone tablet engraved with mysterious runes. When the mouse hovers over a rune, it glows faintly and is accompanied by a deep sound effect, including a search box.
You can automatically locate a specific position by entering a small area’s name or coordinates.
"What an awesome map design!"
Upon initially viewing the map, Tong Xin was immediately captivated by the detailed design.
Exiting the map feature, he clicked on the Monster Encyclopedia function.
The page switched, and the screen was swallowed by scarlet flames, with monster cards neatly arranged on the page. Each card’s background was the habitat of that monster, such as Dark Cave, Skeleton Battlefield, Coastal Forest, and so on.
When the mouse hovered over a card, it slowly enlarged, revealing the monster’s 3D model in vivid detail, such as a monster named "Iron Shell Bug," with a thick shell and clear cracks, eyes like burning coals, and a mouth revealing sharp fangs, as if ready to leap out from the screen at any moment.
Below the card, short text introduced the monster’s habits and weaknesses, with slim fonts in scarlet color, looking very cool.
After browsing through several monster introductions, Tong Xin was filled with curiosity and anticipation for the game Monster World.
Closing the monster page, he clicked on the Life Soul Atlas.
Upon switching the screen, a containment wall appeared in front of him, with each containment grid imprisoning a monster.
When the mouse moved to a contained monster, ability information was revealed.
After viewing, Tong Xin realized this was the Primordial Containment Wall that his brothers mentioned, with each monster representing an ability trait.
You can choose a single monster growth route or match different Primordial Traits to form a Star Vein School.
"You guys are damn lucky!"
Thinking of how his brothers had been enjoying it for months, Tong Xin couldn’t help but clench his fist.
Sadness surged from the bottom of his heart but was forcibly suppressed.
He planned to finish exploring the Monster World official website before indulging in sadness; now curiosity occupied the high ground, so sadness retreated.
After viewing the Spirit Plant Atlas, Spirit Ore Atlas, Domain Node, Tong Xin clicked on the seventh category page: Glory Chronicles.
After the page switch, presented before Tong Xin was an ancient book wrapped in chains, chains forged from scarlet metal, engraved with complex runes, with a dance of Emperor’s Fire at the center of the book.
Upon clicking the book, the chains broke, and the book automatically opened.
The background music changed at this time, as if announcing the unveiling of a long-buried history.
As the page unfolded, a scarlet glow spilled from the book page, and then text and images emerged as projections on the page.
The preface printed two lines of shining golden text:
In the river of time, each player writes their own story in their way, and some stories are noteworthy enough to enter the annals of history and become legends.
This is to record the exciting milestone moments on the growth road of Player Corps.
...
The first page of the album records a screenshot of Player Corps’ high-moment battle to purify the Dark Cave after a bloody struggle.
Below was also printed the specific time of the campaign.
But the video could not be clicked to view, indicating that game cabin adaptation is needed to view specific videos.
With curiosity, Tong Xin turned the pages one by one.
Besides campaign videos and screenshots, the details are divided into three parts.
Namely: campaign location, exciting moments, and hero list (players with outstanding performance in the campaign).
The Chronicles design is full of interactivity, with words glowing faintly as the mouse slides over them, accompanied by deep sound effects, like the sound of war drums or the clash of blades or the roaring of magic.
Clicking on dynamic illustrations enlarges the picture and plays a short GIF, like a player swinging his weapon to slay a monster.
The button design for viewing keys resembles a medal, emitting a crisp metallic clash sound when clicked.
Each page of the Glory Chronicles records a battle, with dynamic battlefield scenery as the background, burning forests, Skeleton Battlefield, Snowfall Canyon... Just the screenshots stirred Tong Xin’s blood.
Wishing to enter the game and join the charge right away.
But such a good thing clearly was not his turn.
Taking a deep breath, Tong Xin’s eyes were full of envy:
"You guys are damn lucky, eating so well."
Exiting the Glory Chronicles feature, he clicked on the last option: Player Forum.
This was the built-in forum for Monster World, now fully open to external connections, filled with strategy posts or other content exchange posts by players with qualification.
Flipping through player discussions, Tong Xin’s envy and jealousy were written all over his face.
At this moment, he clicked on the post function:
[You heavenly destiny people with alpha test qualification, you’re damn lucky!]
But after clicking send, a prompt popped up:
[Note: The account is in guest status, only allowing browsing forum posts or posting 2 reply posts per day, unable to send main posts in the forum.]
Seeing the prompt message, Tong Xin couldn’t help but feel a wave of sadness.
