415.Chapter 413 412 Dog Planners’ Daily Work Pinching Face System
Chapter 413 412.The Daily Work of the Dog Planners – Pinch Face System in Official Testing
Lumina had seen sensual players on the forums before describing the marvelous feeling of becoming a vampire from a human in heart-touching words.
According to them, the whole process seems to be fantastical but it doesn’t have much impact on one’s gaming experience, and during the process of the psychic energy projected body being changed into a different form, the player’s consciousness is just like watching from a third-party perspective.
Both ensure the game experience, but also increase the sense of immersion.
To put it simply, you are watching a CG animation with yourself as the protagonist.
But when it was Lumina’s turn to conduct the functionality test of this racial change, the situation was different, she would be groggy as if she hadn’t slept for three days and three nights, dazed and confused like a patient who had been injected with anesthesia.
She could feel Madame Tris pouring a strange tasting potion into her mouth.
The slightly bitter tasting potion flowed down her throat and was quickly absorbed into her body, but this process was not handled by Lady Tris, but by Lord Murphy.
Soon, Lumina was in what the others called a “third-party perspective”.
Her consciousness seemed to have left her body, hovering nearby as she watched herself slowly “melt” on the psionic table, which was not an emotional description, but was indeed the case.
The projections of players belonging to Lumina were intertwined with the purest psychic vision as the closed-eyed Murphy-sama’s fingers pulsed and maneuvered, just as they had when the young players had first accepted the call to Transylvania.
She had become Light, and that was just the beginning.
After Lumina’s projection had completely lost its human form, Murphy, who had presided over the race change ceremony, activated the racial template conversion function in the administrator system, and was rightfully warned:
[The target is set to be converted to ‘Elf Template – Moon Elf’, the current information collection degree of this template is 20%, there is no failure penalty for this operation, however, with the current information collection degree it is impossible to complete the perfect conversion of a standard Moon Elf, the target’s conversion progress can only go into the incomplete form of a ‘Half Elf’ at most. ‘ incomplete form.
Yes/No to continue this operation?
Murphy ignored the warning.
He looked at this point like the stubborn and manic stance of those love-struck kids who locked the door to their room behind them and looked at the red warning message on the screen stubbornly choosing to continue their visit.
Information about the race belonging to the Moon Elves tumbled through Murphy’s mind, information that had been extracted from the drop of blood given by Ms. Laneia.
It wasn’t just a description of the Moon Elf’s appearance and carapace form, but more of an in-depth study of the race’s psychic qualities.
Minor players didn’t have entities in this world, they were projections of psychic energy simulations, and thus for their projected forms, simulating the psychic energy traits of the target race was much more important than simply converting their appearance.
This was also what Tris had reminded Murphy of earlier.
If it was only a matter of converting the small player’s appearance without changing their racial traits, Tris would be able to do it without much effort, but an inner conversion involving life forms was not something that a psychic energy master could handle.
It was not that Tris was not powerful enough, but this kind of “unique creatures” such as small players were “unprecedented” in the history of the entire continent.
The lack of reference samples made this kind of “forerunner’s attempt” dangerous.
“The psychic qualities of the Moon Elves are related to the symbol of the ‘bright moon’, and this race not only possesses the racial talent of the ‘Elves’, but also has a very special ‘Moonlight Concealment’ and ‘Moonlight Concealment’. ‘ and the unique power of ‘Bright Moon Gift’.
The information that came back from Ms. Laneia’s blood was quite small, and I was only able to simulate it to a very rudimentary level.
However, combining the two racial information of Lainnia and Adele, I can basically summarize a few racial gifts common to all elves.”
Murphy narrowed his eyes and began to try to reshape Lumina’s body form according to the understanding of the elven races in his mind.
This was his first time to perform the operation of racial transformation, which was much more difficult than the previous operation of “Spiritual Embracing” on small players to turn them into vampires.
At the time, he had watched Tris perform the entire ritual with ease, but when it came to his own hands, his claws were numb.
Why is this similar to the feeling of a bear child playing with Play-Doh for the first time?
It’s really just “face-painting”!
“Be gentle! Slow down! Don’t be in such a hurry, weaving psychic forms is a task that requires a delicate hand, you can’t manipulate the weaving of psychic energy in the same way as when you hold a sword.”
Beside Murphy, Tris, who was assisting in this ritual, frowned tightly and reminded:
“It seems that you haven’t spent any effort on the manipulation of your psychic energy during this time, I can’t understand how you can be so clumsy in matters related to psychic energy when it’s obvious that you’re so gifted in swordsmanship, and you’ve inherited a part of my power traits.
It’s not that you don’t understand this!
You can’t use ignorance as an excuse for yourself, it looks like I’m going to give you a ‘special training’ next, Murphy. As the leader of a land you can’t exist with such an obvious power shortcoming.”
“But I’m already working hard.”
Murphy, who had his eyes closed, retorted weakly as he clumsily helped Lumina reshape her form:
“I just learned to summon Astral Spirit Energy to temporarily strengthen my summons a few days ago, and George says I’m making rapid progress, and that Astral Giant Wolf claims he’s seen other compatriots in his pack summoned by summoners.
It bragged that no Star Realm wolf had ever been treated as favorably as it was.
I think I’m a good summoner, you can’t discredit my dedication to the ways of summoning like that”
“Oh, so you’ve lowered your expectations of yourself to enjoying your fawning summoner’s appreciation of your nonsense?”
Tris said scornfully as she played with the Serenade Scepter:
“And let’s not even talk about George’s pathetic rank of not even a ‘head wolf’, but you actually believe what a beast with little insight says?
Would you like to compare your progress with that apprentice of yours in the way of summoning?
Touching you poor though he was limited by the oppression of the scorpion lion to summon more astral creatures, it only took him a month or so to deepen the psychic connection between himself and the scorpion lion Stinky Treasure to a level that far surpassed the psychic bond between you and George.
From this point of view, your disciple is far superior to you.
Murphy!
Burnout is burnout.
I can understand that you may not be interested or even wary of psychic mysteries, but that’s no reason to spend all your time training in swordplay while deliberately creating weaknesses for yourself.
I don’t care!
Starting tonight, I want you to have to make time for my special training in psychic energy, and at the very least, I want you to raise your strength at the level of Summoning and Psychic Arts to a level equal to your attainment in Swordsmanship!”
“Ugh.”
Murphy sighed.
The handsome vampire lord’s posture at this moment switched again from a little kid hiding in his room watching porn to a bear child whose teacher called his parents because of his bad grades.
He stated that he was simply daydreaming.
If I had known that, I should not have borrowed that spiritual handbook from Missy, learning Kudel and Maxim to specialize in the physical profession is also not a ladder to greatness.
The combination of professions sounded cool, but in reality, the two very different paths of power meant that Murphy needed to work twice as hard or even many times as hard as normal people in order to push both professions to the level of “exquisite attainment”.
“Focus! You need to focus now.”
Seeing Murphy’s resistance, Tris was furious, and she reached out and slapped Murphy on the back of the head to make him focus on the spiritual energy remodeling ceremony in front of him.
But in fact, this process was automatically advanced by the administrator system, and Murphy was only assuming the role of the psychic energy provider and cooperating with a little spell casting action.
The 20% success rate destined that this matter would not be so smooth all the way.
Lumina’s new body was quickly compiled, using Ms. Laneia as a blueprint to shape the moon elf’s more slender and elongated form than a human woman’s, followed by “fine-tuning” on the limbs and the main body’s torso, which in Murphy’s perception was like the “3D Spiritual Energy Printing In Murphy’s perception, this is like the process of “3D psychic printing”.
Not only shaping the exterior, but also the inner transformation.
Things were going well up to this point, but then there was trouble.
The lack of racial information Murphy possessed directly led to his indecision in many details when molding Lumina’s new form, like a painting with most of its parts missing, no matter how much Murphy used his imagination, he could not patch up this complicated painting to be complete.
But he soon relaxed. From the point of view of “dog planning”, he actually did not need to make this form change to 100% during Lumina’s first race conversion test.
It wasn’t that he was lazy!
Rather, the racial conversion function was so important that it was a bit unreasonable not to mold an exclusive quest chain for the young players in the game.
Since there was going to be a long quest chain, there was no need to craft Lumina’s new form to perfection.
Unlocking new talents and skills step-by-step would be more in line with the “progressive” storyline of the game, and it would be a good way to make up for your poor crafting skills.
This idea jumped out at Murphy and made him realize that he was a fucking genius!
So he immediately gave up sculpting the details of Lumina’s form, and after applying his 20% understanding of the Moon Elf’s racial information, he turned his head and spoke softly to Tris, who would then fine-tune the shape of Lumina’s body, and at least simulate the external conditions to perfection in the absence of the internal conditions.
Tris readily agreed.
She could also see the young Murphy’s dilemma, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to give his warrior a 100% surprise, it was that he couldn’t do it yet.
Something like psychic weaving could be too easy for Tris.
She was able to make a big splash like a sculptor carving a stone, and by fine-tuning the frequency of her weaving, she quickly molded Lumina’s shape into the classic moon elf image, casually “fine-tuning” the chest scale.
Tris was a very “traditional” vampire psychic in this regard.
As far as she knew, there was no real “Dodo Daemon King” in the elf race, and at most, it was only a C+. No matter what ethnicity the elves pursued was dexterity and agility, and being too big would undoubtedly affect their ability to move quickly in the woodlands.
This detail didn’t escape Murphy’s eyes, and the corner of the vampire lord’s eye twitched, Hey! You’ll make Lumina yell at the game’s realism if you mess up like that ah!
Tris didn’t pay attention to Murphy’s sultry look.
After she finished sculpting her limbs and torso she was ready to get her hands on Lumina’s features to finish simulating them as well only to be stopped by Murphy reaching out.
“Let her do the last step herself.”
The vampire lord whispered to Tris as he looked at the projected body in front of him that had been reshaped into shape but with a face that was a blur of psychic light:
“You’ve seen on the forums that group of blowhards have been asking for the ‘face pinching’ feature to be opened up, they don’t want to start their second lives in the game with their already tired looking faces.
They want to be able to pinch pretty faces themselves.
And I’ve thought about it, and this ‘feature’ would be an effective addition to the confidentiality of personal information, as currently players wearing their own faces in the game can easily lead to them being recognized by others in the real world.
You have to understand that not everyone wants to bring their in-game relationships into reality.
Is this ‘feature’ possible?”
“It’s not as hard as you think.”
Tris replied after thinking for a moment:
“Their form of existence dictates that as long as they have mastered the introductory skills of psychic weaving and are in the range of the spell dedicated to weaving psychic energy in front of them they can fine-tune their face and even their physical features on their own.
A master psionicist is required to perform the ritual at their side though, and I can even give them a few ‘reference templates’, such as your face and mine.”
“Chargeable item!”
Murphy’s eyes lit up, and he said as if he had an outburst of inspiration:
“This kind of similar face template belonging to unique NPCs can also be used as a special ‘reward’!
For example, only your warrior and my warrior or when we brush our ‘favorability’ to a certain level can unlock this unique face and physique.
We can even make this ‘appearance template’ into a psychic message and put it up for sale in Dorothy’s black market.”
“Murphy!”
Tris couldn’t listen anymore.
She used her onomatopoeic technique to scream into Murphy’s head:
“I don’t understand why you become so mercenary every time you’re in the business of utilizing your warriors, why can you even sell your face?
I don’t want to see the entire Scarlet Fortress of female players waving around with my face.
That would be too shameful!”
“Don’t worry don’t worry, your such a beautiful and flirtatious midnight face can’t be harnessed by ordinary women, they won’t humiliate themselves.”
Murphy soothed:
“Of course, Adele will probably feel annoyed by this afterward, but that’s the kind of duty and pressure she has to bear as a Murphy’s Descendant.
I mean, let Lumina try.
She’s your first warrior, so naturally she deserves a commendation of sufficient weight, doesn’t she?
Believe me, a reward for such a rare appearance is much more valuable to her than giving it in kind, and she’ll be grateful and more loyal to you for it.
Try it.”
“Hmph.”
Tris rolled her eyes and switched her casting gesture rather irritably, and as she delegated the final authority of her psychic weaving, the consciousness of Lumina, who had been observing the racial transformation as a “ghost”, flew back to her “new body” as if it had been extracted and pulled. Lumina’s consciousness flew back to her “new body” as if it had been extracted and pulled, but she did not awaken immediately.
[Ding! Racial transformation is complete! Your race has been converted from ‘Human’ to ‘Half-Elf-Moon Elf/Human’ and your racial talents have been updated!
The character’s initial attributes have been adjusted!
Before you awaken in your new form, please take a moment to choose a face for your new form.
Tip!
This function is a test function, there are very few character templates to choose from at the moment, you may choose to complete the molding with your true appearance, or you may fine-tune your features and body shape to your liking.
Tip!
Because the character blueprint you used for your racial conversion came from Ms. Laneia Garland Nord Cappadocia, you have obtained the special character appearance template ‘Laneia, Priestess of the Moon’.
Because you have completed the first link in the ‘Tris’s Warrior’ quest chain and achieved the title of ‘Cavendina’s Warrior’, you gain the Special – Character Appearance template ‘Tris the Beautiful Alcoholic’.
As you are the first player to try this feature, the development team has prepared a Rare – Unique Appearance Template ‘Tris the History Scholar’ for you.
Because your birthday is coming up, the test team member Jade has prepared a birthday gift for you – Special – Unique Appearance Template ‘Fantasy World Line – Countess Mephonia of Cadman’.
You can use the special character appearance template you have already obtained as a blueprint to upgrade and customize your own looks and appearance, in order to ensure the authenticity of the game and sense of immersion, all appearance templates are somewhat different from the character prototype.
In order to ensure that the game’s plot advances correctly, the development team currently does not allow players to set their appearance to the appearance of an NPC.
Please try more channels to get more rare appearance templates in the game.
Tips from the development team!
This function is a test function, players need to reach respect in the Scarlet Fortress reputation and gain access to the Blood Wyvern Cloister IV psychic energy chamber to open this function.
It is also necessary to pay a hefty commission for Lady Tris, who presides over this ceremony].
This series of prompts made Lumina’s mind shocked at how thrilling the big job the development team had hidden away was, but at the same time a wave of ecstasy surged through her heart.
This development team really was a good civilization that listened to advice!
They really got the face pinching feature out, oye! Hooray.
Faced with the three rare character appearance templates she already possessed, all the depression in Lumina’s heart had been swept away, and she pondered stupidly before decisively making her choice.
Hey, let’s just let herself personally pinch a beautiful appearance as a birthday gift to herself!
