Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Xudong, the producer of Wind Road. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. In these two years, we have actually been silently listening to and reflecting on the suggestions and opinions given to us by players. And we seriously rectified many of the shortcomings in "Story of Meng Jing", and finally completed the "Story of Hob Meat".
Glad we're alive and taking a big step forward. This is a very bold attempt, I hope everyone will like it. We will continue to accept everyone's opinions and suggestions in the future, because "Wind Road" still has a long way to go. I personally will always stick to it, and our team will continue to develop more fun, new and free expansions to continue to serve "Wind Road". Please support us more.
Next, let me give you a brief introduction to the content of this key update:
I. Brand new expansion "Story of Hob Meat"
The initial flow of "Story of Hob Meat" is about 7 to 8 hours. It uses first-person action adventure, and the gameplay is roughly based on refreshing, passionate, collecting, solving puzzles, and other elements, among which combat elements include Insight, riposte, traps, sneak attacks, combos, weapon cooperation, execution and other elements.assassination and other elements, among which combat elements include demolition, defense, traps, sneak attacks, combos, weapon cooperation, execution and other elements.

Through the exterior and interior relation, it tells the personal experience of chef Hob Meat in Ironback. Through the inextricable connection with Meng Jing and the whole "Wind Road" worldview, it shows that Hob Meat is not only a person with strong martial arts and personality defects, but also a vivid man in Jianghu. And some mysteries that have not been solved in the Story of Meng Jing will be revealed step by step in "Story of Hob Meat".

In terms of combat, since this game is played by a villain in the game, the combat system tends to be more refreshing, enriching gameplay on the basis of exhilaration, derived: different weapon switching combinations, light and heavy attack combos, sneak attack execution, death's door execution, active defense counterattack, skill defense counterattack and other gameplay, and combine level puzzle solving and combat skills.

In "Story of Hob Meat", there are currently four types of weapons to choose. Each weapon has a different appearance upgrade effect, execution effect, heavy attack effect, skill combination effect, and feeling of hitting and exhilarating experience.

This cultivation system adopts a fixed-point "altar". Upgrade, restore, and save games all need to be done at the "altar" in the scene. In addition to our weapons that can be upgraded, you can also upgrade basic attributes. However, you have to collect the items you need to improve your abilities. In addition to that, since Hob Meat practiced the Insanity Sutra, players can get up and continue fighting immediately after their defeat. At the same time, the playthrough inheritance system continues to be maintained. After clearing the game, you can continue to choose "New Story+" to unlock more than ten new achievements.
