Most players' impressions of Lego are still fixated on the childhood toy blocks that ca in boxes for a dozen or so yuan, and they weren't even necessarily Lego, often knock-offs like Luban.
After the initial excitent of diving into the Lego world, they soon found themselves dazed in front of the mountainous Lego flying ships.
How exactly do you play with these?
It's well known that Lord Dong's childhood, except for elentary school, was basically toy-free, always stuck to a phone or textbook. Collectibles like these only erged after graduation.
Brother Ni cautiously pulled a few pieces off a small spaceship and tried to assemble them, then stared silently at the blocky ss resembling nothing in particular.
Feeling inexplicably irritated inside
As an adult who's been working for several years, he seed to have lost the patience to imrse himself in building blocks, just wanting to quickly find a master player to mod sothing ready-made and dive straight into enjoynt.
"Hey! Look at this in my hand."
Climbing up the Millennium Falcon, Wildman dismantled a Quadruple Cannon barehanded, held it at his waist, and, in a playful mood, aid at the bustling crowd.
"KABOOM!"
Initially a re playful mimicking of gunfire, unexpectedly, the cannon in his hand flashed a red light due to his voice, hitting the Exchange Coupon in the crowd.
In the astonished gazes of the onlookers, the Exchange Coupon got briefly stuck and jittery, then when it appeared again, it had turned into a Lego-fied Exchange Coupon.
He looked down at his ridiculous outfit and imdiately showed a dissatisfied expression.
"This is no fun at all."
"Haha, are you hurt?"
Wildman asked with concern, but couldn't help but burst into laughter.
After all, it was his mishap that made the Exchange Coupon end up like that.
Exchange Coupon looked at his clawed hands, then his status bar, where there was only a new [Lego Form] buff, unsure about the benefits.
"Hmm... doesn't really feel like anything."
Jackal, beside him, checked the data and said,
"It's just a temporary form change, ow, lasting for a few minutes. This program isn't offensive, but still quite cute."
She looked at the Lego-fied Exchange Coupon with squinting eyes; the three-head-tall Lego character had a kind of silly charm.
In the next second
"BOOM!"
Wildman's cannon fired again, this ti hitting Jackal.
Sure enough, Jackal turned into a cat-eared Lego character, her previously girlish body now just a square, smooth platelike surface.
Given there's no attack potential, they could play as they pleased.
A chaotic battle of flying beams spread quickly among the players, and in just over ten minutes, everyone present got a Lego transformation buff.
"Hey! What are you all doing?"
Song Zhaoi, having just received instructions from Lin Miao, walked in to see a colorful field of Lego characters and could only shake her head in resigned sigh.
If it doesn't kill you, you'll seek death—normal people wouldn't dare use an unknown program on themselves. If it has a hidden backdoor, everyone could die.
So players tried attacking Song Zhaoi, but all attacks were blocked by an invisible data shield.
She casually picked up a small 1*2 piece from the ground, and after a brief data analysis, her right hand instantly ford an identical piece, without missing a detail.
"A universal module component similar to a solidified program function? Interesting, but the program is sowhat crude."
The temporary assimilation of other program forms, the Lego program is sowhat similar to the solid programs players use in raids, but clearly lags behind.
The real highlight is that Lego-fied program pieces can be assembled at will, displaying unexpected functions.
But unfortunately, those who can use it don't need it, and those who want to use it lack the computational power, making it tasteless to eat and a pity to discard.
"Song Zhaoi."
The players surrounding the top NPC hacker eagerly inquired,
"Can we use the ships built from this stuff?"
Owning their own ship would be just too cool, a thrill that surpassing riding a hovercar, even in cyberspace it's a rare experience.
"Not for now."
Song Zhaoi didn't intend to douse the players' interest, rather, she explained.
"But you can take so shortcuts through other ans."
She took a white model from the AI store, then attempted to write a new control program based on the data parsed from Emt's parts, embedding it into her hand-held AI, adding a new feature.
Right after, Song Zhaoi lifted her hand, directing the glowing white AI model to soar mid-air, causing several Millennium Falcon flying ships nearby to start vibrating, as parts one by one detached and flew to the airborne AI, beginning to assemble around it.
In re minutes, a larger Millennium Falcon ship was born.
She explained
"Most of your computational power is insufficient to support large-scale part operations, and to assemble what you desire, you need AI assistance."
Song Zhaoi estimated, with 3 base intelligence, at most, one could use 20 basic parts and a simple movent program; more than that wouldn't hold up. Even with 6 intelligence, seven to eight hundred parts and four to five auxiliary programs would be the limit.
Moreover, diverting all computational power for this leaves no ans to control Demonic Puppets to attack, turning you into sitting ducks on the battlefield.
AI assistance?
The players exchanged glances. That's sothing only player guilds could afford on a large scale, where could ordinary players afford that?
