Chapter 196: Chapter 196: Shiro Challenges Schwi
"It's expensive, but I think I can give it a try."
"Listen to me."
Sora and Shiro looked at each other and prepared to go online. Takashima Yuuna collected the money and turned on the machine, while Chelsea led them to the computers.
Even Sora and Shiro felt very strange. They were usually socially inept, but here, they felt at ease, almost becoming social terrorists.
Sitting in front of the computer, the two of them opened the computer skillfully without any instruction.
"Onii.. there's Resident Evil, Minecraft, Devil May Cry, and Red Alert. There are also some games I don't recognize."
The moment Shiro turned on the computer, she became serious. She quickly scanned the games in the Internet cafe. She had played many games, but the games here were too unusual. She decided to open a game at random to try.
"Well, Red Alert... and then speedrun it..."
She quickly opened the campaign, but after starting it, she was confused.
Game mode and realism mode?
She instinctively chose the highest difficulty. Though she was socially inept, she found that this is a game with a very high degree of realism. As long as it was a game, she was not afraid.
She first played the level where Tanya bombs the ship of the Allied Forces, commanding Tanya to fight and contacting troops to counterattack. The communication and command in the realism mode were slightly uncomfortable, but fortunately, Tanya's execution was very strong.
In actual time, it took five minutes, and the in-game calculation time was three hours. Shiro cleared the first level of Red Alert.
Looking at the clearance time, Shiro's expression became solemn.
"What's wrong?"
"Onii, there is a master."
"Master? Uh, Yes, your Aniki saw it too."
Sora downloaded the TT software in the Internet cafe and obtained some information through it. This Internet cafe does have two recognized game masters, Riku and Schwi. According to the description, the two are a couple. Riku is an ordinary person, but Schwi doesn't seem to be human. This made Sora very excited.
"Shiro, it looks like we can experience challenges here."
Sora and Shiro have never lost in their own world's games, and because of this, they have already felt bored with their world. But now there is an almost invincible existence in this Internet cafe? This makes them extremely excited.
At the same time, they also checked Riku and Schwi's records. Riku's 1v1 win rate is only 3%, while Schwi's win rate is 99.9%. After a brief contact with the games in this Internet cafe, the two siblings realized one thing: the game difficulty here is very high.
Don't be fooled by Shiro's command seemingly easy.
This is because they had already cleared the original Red Alert countless times. They knew how to listen and how to fight; they had already figured out the tricks.
Although the operation method of Red Alert in realism mode had changed a little, the plot and route of the game had not. Even so, the clearance time was more than 30 seconds behind the first place.
They are very clear that when reaching the perfect state of recording such things, each breakthrough requires ten, a hundred, or even thousands of attempts to succeed.
Shiro estimated that if she did not make any mistakes in the next ten tries, her actual speed would increase by 25 seconds. If her brain was overclocked, it would be around 25 to 28 seconds. The last two seconds could only be achieved if she did not make any mistakes and her brain did not have any delay.
Doubt? Not to the point. After playing this game, the two siblings thought that this might sound a bit mysterious, but it was not impossible. This was just Shiro's case. If Sora and Shiro joined forces, they could reach this record in about a hundred tries according to Shiro's calculation.
However, according to Shiro's calculation, this record could not be exceeded because it was already the limit time and could not be surpassed.
At this moment, Shiro showed an excited expression.
"Onii!"
"I have contacted this person, and they agreed to our challenge application."
"Yeah!"
They opened Red Alert and found the room created by Schwi.
Shiro: "Hello."
Schwi: "Hello, do you want to enable the superweapons?"
Shiro: "All right."
Schwi: "Then enable superweapons."
At the same time, Schwi in the main store also showed an 'excited' expression on her face.
Challenge? Since she broke all the game records in the Internet cafe and became the record holder, no one has challenged her except newcomers. As an Ex-Machina, her computing power is equal to that of the Internet cafe's own artificial intelligence.
According to Liu Yuan, this artificial intelligence is just for bullying, but it is occasionally defeated by Schwi, which is very unscientific.
While Liu Yuan was still in a daze during the day, he received a message from Takashima Yuuna on TT.
"Boss, two very powerful guests have come to the branch. Their game level is infinitely close to Schwi's, and they are challenging her."
Originally, Liu Yuan was distracted and thinking about things, but when he saw this message, he was instantly alert. He knew Takashima Yuuna too well. To be able to tie with Schwi, they must have computing power that completely surpasses that of humans, right? Otherwise, let alone challenging, even a tie is probably impossible.
But he also knew Takashima Yuuna's personality very well. She was definitely not the kind of person who exaggerates. Since she spoke, it proved that there was fun to watch.
"Kisara, let's eat watermelon and watch the show."
"Okay, then where's the watermelon?"
"Here!"
Liu Yuan took out a piece of watermelon and whispered, "Someone is challenging Schwi in gaming, let's just watch the show. I'll start a live broadcast on our computer."
Although you can't play games during work, staff are allowed to watch players' live broadcasts and appreciate players' skills on your office computer. Liu Yuan started a live broadcast directly, ready to see what the challenger's confidence is.
Jibril, who was lying on a chair, was instantly alert when she heard this: "What? Someone wants to challenge these useless monkeys in terms of brainpower... ahem, challenge the Ex-Machinas? Don't they want want to live?"
Jibril had to admit that the Ex-Machinas were slightly better than her in computing power, especially since Schwi was an analysis unit, and she could become stronger by using her processors. And many games in the Internet cafe, even at the highest difficulty, require not the body but the brain.
Because the game will give you a suitable 'body' but the game will not give you a good brain. If you want to show absolute power in the game, especially in competitive games, in addition to your own hard skills, the brain is a strict requirement.
Ex-Machinas are absolutely top-notch in terms of thought process.
Challenging them? Challenging them in this aspect alone is no less than hanging an old man.
However, Jibril also looked over curiously. She was very interested in seeing how the people who challenged the Ex-Machinas with full confidence would fare.
But soon, her wishful thinking was miscalculated.
Even in the realism mode of the game Red Alert, the changes at the beginning are not particularly significant. Mining and gathering resources are still the core essence of the game. It all comes down to who operates well and controls the rhythm better.
But the newcomer challenging Schwi actually matched her rhythm.
Both used the Soviet army, both had the same 2 mines and 6 milking strategy. Even sending units to harass at the same time, but they were all blown up by the machine guns on the ox cart.
From the perspective of watching the battle, the deployment of infantry, the placement of buildings, and the control of resources, the two players seemed almost identical. However, during the battle, an accident occurred.
There is no problem with Shiro's operation. Her command and calculation abilities have surpassed human capabilities.
But Schwi is not human!
