Chapter 650: Monster Hunter + Soul Sacrifice, Any Potential?
[Ancient Dragon Calamity: Special species at the ecological apex, a personification of natural phenomena, almost unrestricted by other species. Wherever they appear, disaster follows, easily altering the ecosystems in their path. Their every move significantly impacts the world, and the way humans and ancient dragons coexist may determine the future's direction.
Recently, several ancient dragons have exhibited unusual behavior, already affecting surrounding ecosystems. In response, the Hunter's Guild has issued a series of special investigation quests. Players, as members of the Investigation Team, can selectively accept these quests at the Hunter's Guild outpost, 'Astera.' Some investigation quests have certain prerequisites.]
[Evil Sacrifice: A mysterious power has invaded the earth veins, subsequently affecting the entire New World. This has granted all humans and dragon beasts in the New World a powerful yet evil strength called 'Sacrifice.' Consequently, the human side has developed a 'Mage' profession system in addition to the original 'Hunter' profession. However, due to the evil nature of this power's manifestation, the human side has split into the 'Purification Faction,' which opposes sacrifice and preserves the ecosystem, and the 'Fallen Faction,' which pursues power and seeks to eradicate its source.
Players will be unable to use skills, equipment, or items from modern or future technological eras.
All players entering the instance will temporarily gain the skill 'Redemption and Sacrifice' in a specific area. Please explore its specific effects after entering the instance.
Players can choose their desired faction development direction or remain neutral, not joining either side, simply existing as an foreign hunter. However, a player's actions within the instance will also influence their human faction alignment, thereby affecting corresponding interpersonal relationships.]
Monster Hunter: World… and, Soul Sacrifice!
Without any doubt, Cheng Tian immediately identified these two games in his mind.
Ancient Dragon Calamity corresponded to Monster Hunter, and the Astera outpost basically limited the instance blueprint to World.
The number of Monster Hunter instances in Heaven's Chosen Space was quite high, as the quantity and quality of its works were evident. Additionally, its built-in guild quest mode was very suitable for players, and it was also a major producer of equipment, making it a relatively well-known world among players.
However, the Soul Sacrifice corresponding to Evil Sacrifice greatly exceeded Cheng Tian's expectations.
Heaven's Chosen Space still remembered this game? And put it into Monster Hunter? This deserved a five-star rating!
Monster Hunter was undoubtedly a great work that pioneered the 'co-op' game genre. World and its DLC Iceborne were Cheng Tian's longest-played Monster Hunter titles to date, making him relatively familiar with them.
As one of the younger games in the same genre, Soul Sacrifice's popularity was clearly much lower, likely even less than Toukiden and God Eater.
Of course, its main reason was its release platform, as it was an exclusive title for the handheld PSV platform.
Clearly, the PSV failed to replicate the success of the PSP back then, which led to Soul Sacrifice, a very distinctive co-op game that didn't simply copy its predecessors' successful experiences, ultimately being buried, with extremely low attention.
After suppressing his surprise, Cheng Tian began to carefully study the two entries.
The Ancient Dragon Calamity entry still seemed to be in its original form, with no variables revealed yet, but Evil Sacrifice had a much greater impact on the instance's settings.
At least from the description, the instance itself should primarily be set in the Monster Hunter world, while Soul Sacrifice integrated into this world as a new power source and profession. It was still unclear whether the 'monsters' from the Soul Sacrifice world also joined in, or if they existed in a form of rule fusion.
Since the human side had completely added a Mage system and even directly split into two factions, Cheng Tian believed that dragon beasts, and even ancient dragons, had a high probability of having mastered the same power.
However, speaking of which, he had just acquired a Martian battle fortress capable of inter-planetary travel, yet the very next main instance put him in a place where he couldn't use technology-based equipment.
Hmm, he wouldn't mind, considering it had fused with Soul Sacrifice~
Although the five special genes from the Cadillacs and Dinosaurs world were all good, they were not even close to the variety of the Monster Hunter world, making it worthwhile to collect materials.
And speaking of materials… Cheng Tian paused, then looked at the Soul Sacrifice-related entry again.
According to the current logical presentation, it was likely that the dragon beast materials in this world would either take on or completely replace the 'offering' function in Soul Sacrifice.
In other words, these sacrificial magic abilities would probably also lean towards the Monster Hunter worldview!
Cheng Tian, upon realizing this, visibly grew excited and already had a clear goal for material reserves: repair items for limbs and internal organs.
Better safe than sorry~ Who knows, he might even need to unleash a Tanaka Spinal Sword~
With anticipation for the new instance, Cheng Tian spent the final 24 hours of standby adjusting his and his teammates' physical and mental states to their best.
And during the waiting period in the Heaven's Chosen Space plaza, players wearing the dazzling, predominantly white 'Blazing Sun Legion Private' title had occasionally started to appear.
These were the players who had joined the Blazing Sun Legion through additional trial quests.
A considerable number of players adopted a purely wait-and-see attitude towards the emergence of the Blazing Sun Legion. After all, no matter how tempting the rules presented were, it was essentially a faction established by other players, which meant there could be significant variables, and unfulfilled promises were quite normal.
But among such a large player base, there were always some who tried to be the first to 'eat the crab.'
After passing the combat power test and faction alignment trial customized with the help of Heaven's Chosen Space, these individuals successfully joined and had already begun to receive some faction-exclusive benefits.
For example, with just the lowest rank of Private, they could directly purchase standard firearms from the 'Gatling Arms Group' in the Metal Slug world through the Blazing Sun Legion's channels in Heaven's Chosen Space!
Vehicles were not yet available, but conventional firearms like heavy machine guns could basically be purchased in unlimited quantities.
As for the second benefit, it clearly had a strong Blazing Sun Legion style—
That was the ability to hire the Blazing Sun Legion's exclusive troop types to fight for oneself.
