Cultivating in Online Games

Chapter 2: Secondary disease

"Jiuzhongtian" is a keyboard online game. It has set countless brilliant records in the game industry. It is a classic in the minds of many players, and it has declined since the advent of the mobile game era.

After ten years of silence, "Jiuzhongtian" made a comeback with brand-new technology. It is known as the world's first holographic online game. After the overwhelming announcement, the public beta began.

Player Ye Zhou is a loyal fan of the keyboard era of "Jiuzhongtian". He purchased a holographic helmet in advance and entered the game as soon as the public beta was launched.

On the first day of the game, everyone is a novice, exploring the gameplay a little bit in the new mode.

The game company that has been dormant for many years is very cunning. It not only wants to recall old players, but also wants to retain more new players. In order to make everyone have the same starting point, many changes have been made to the game.

Among these changes, hiding the IDs and titles of players, mobs, npc, and bosses in the game is the most embarrassing.

The game concept of "Jiuzhongtian" is to focus on an immersive online game, presenting the most real fairy world to players. In this world where people, fairies and demons are rampant, ordinary people can't identify other people's identities at all.

Because of this setting, Ye Zhou suffered a lot.

For example, he took on a novice quest to hunt in the wild, and when he lured a cute young white rabbit with carrots, he was burned to death by the flame-breathing white rabbit. The white rabbit who burned him to death also roared at him: "I don't have eyes, I'm a monster player!"

For another example, at night he took on a mission to exorcise a village ghost, and another handsome young man beside him also took over the mission from the village chief. Zhou extended an olive branch to the other party and sent out an invitation to form a team. The "player" smiled sullenly and opened his mouth to Ye Zhou. It turned out that the so-called "player" was a hidden ghost in the village.

Even if you go to the suburbs to collect herbs, you may get a whisker from ginseng, and hear ginseng scolding the sky: "*** game company, you ****! Why choose one? Will the Eldar randomly assign adult ginseng?"

Ye Zhou could only comfortably touch the small head of ginseng, and showed a schadenfreude smile, secretly glad that he chose the human race, it was not too miserable after all.

There are six races to choose from in "Jiuzhongtian", human, demon, demon, ghost, spirit, and strange. In the promotional video, each of the six race full-level accounts has its own merits, the human race is handsome, and the demon race is beautiful. , Demons are powerful, ghosts are weird, spirits are ethereal, and aliens are mysterious. Each race has its allure.

Who would have guessed that after the service, the demons are animals that have not yet cultivated human form, the spirits are elixir such as ganoderma, ginseng, and snow lotus, the ghosts die in the light, the demons and aliens leave Zhou has not seen it before, but he believes that these two races should have their own sufferings.

The human race is not bad compared to other races, but it is also the most mediocre of all races. Other races have a certain attribute that is particularly high, while the human race is good in all aspects, but it is also mediocre. .

After stepping on the pit several times in a row, Ye Zhou finally found a forest full of mobs and no players, and worked hard to level up.

Seeing that these monsters were going to be killed, but they were snatched first, how could Ye Zhou not be angry.

Ye Zhou was by no means confused by beauty, but at this moment doubted the identity of the monster thief.

The face value data of the initial human account of "Ninefold Heaven" is 80% of the player's original appearance, and there is a chance to increase the face value after upgrading. But they didn't even have a human shape at first, at best they were the smoothest fur among a group of little white rabbits or the best looking among a bunch of medicinal herbs.

The appearance is too high, there must be something abnormal. Either the monster hunter himself looks better than the star, or he is not a player!

Ye Zhou, who had stepped on too many pits, was very cautious. He changed the trajectory of the kendo in time, and the tip of the sword moved from the top of his head to his shoulders.

Ye Zhou flipped his wrist lightly, and the long sword was placed across the neck of the monster thief. He asked vigilantly, "Who are you... player? npc?"

The other party didn't answer, just stared at Ye Zhou.

Dugu Zhuo wanted to tell the boy Yezhou his name, but he couldn't speak his blood. If he spoke at this time, a mouthful of blood would be sprayed on Yezhou's snow-white clothes. Dugu Zhuo didn't want this to happen.

He didn't know whether it was an illusion or an afterlife, and it didn't matter if he was able to see the living night boat.

Duguzhuo slowly raised his hand and held Yezhou's sword tip, blood dripped down his palm, the pain was as real as the Yezhou in front of him.

Young Yezhou showed a look of horror, let go of the sword and jumped back a few steps, distanced himself from Dugu Zhuo, and said in a surprised tone: "Can you still grab equipment like this?"

Equipment? player? npc? A few words that he had never encountered before came into Dugu Zhuo's ears. He looked at the iron sword that Yezhou had released, and with just a glance, he recognized that it was a spiritual sword that could be further tempered.

Dugu Zhuo saw the lingering grass falling from his feet, he knew that this herb could treat some simple injuries, and could also add some spiritual energy to the body.

Although he can't connect his meridians, he can suppress the churning blood in his body at the moment.

Dugu Zhuo decisively picked up the herb and swallowed it, absorbing the aura in the herb.

"Hey, the human race can't directly absorb the medicinal herbs, you have to go to the city to find an alchemist to make medicinal pills, otherwise it will be wasted." Yezhou reminded.

In an instant, the spiritual energy disappeared into the meridians, and Duguzhuo's internal injury was temporarily suppressed. He looked at Yezhou and slowly said, "I have a special physique, it doesn't matter."

Duoguzhuo naturally knows that elixir cannot be taken directly, it will waste a lot of medicinal properties. But since he merged with Xuanjian, he can no longer be regarded as a human being.

While speaking, Dugu Zhuo painted the blood of his palm on Yezhou's iron sword. Even if the sword was broken, the blood of the sword master would be a great supplement to ordinary spiritual tools. The iron sword greedily absorbed the blood containing sword energy, and the blade was sharper.

After all, it is mortal iron, it can't bear too much sword energy, and it can't continue to contain only three drops of blood. Dugu Zhuo wiped off the excess blood on the sword and returned the sword to Yezhou.

Yezhou looked at him alertly and refused to take the sword.

"He doesn't remember me." Dugu Zhuo thought sadly.

The more I don't remember, the more Dugu Zhuo feels that this place is real, not a fantasy.

The corners of Dugu Zhuo’s eyes swept across the corpses of several monsters on the ground, recalling the “grab monsters” that Yezhou just said and the sounds of obtaining various spiritual stones, secret books, and medicinal herbs in his ears , a little thought.

Is it possible that Yezhou is not besieged by monsters, but wants to get these things and attack monsters?

Is the back of the Canglan Mountains such a secret realm where treasures can be obtained by hunting? Could it be that Yezhou's soul came to the back of the Canglan Mountains when the Tianzhu collapsed?

Duguzhuo suppressed the doubts in his heart, clasped his fists and said: "Xia Duguzhuo, I don't know that these monsters are your prey, I am really sorry. In order to apologize, I can only re-temper the spirit for your Excellency. sword, as compensation."

He handed out the spirit sword again, and at the same time quietly held the warm jade in the palm of his hand, and sent it to Yezhou with the hilt.

"The person who speaks fluently is either a middle schooler or an NPC, which one are you?" Ye Zhou continued to ask without taking the sword.

Secondary disease? npc? Dugu Zhuo tried his best to analyze two completely unfamiliar words, the second one was completely unverifiable, and the first one could be guessed to be a disease.

Dugu Zhuo can only answer cautiously: "I am indeed injured."

"You admit to being sick, are you... so frank?" Ye Zhou was surprised, and his vigilance faded.

Dugu Zhuo vaguely felt as if he had admitted some kind of extraordinary illness through Yezhou's expression, but when he said this, he had no choice but to answer: "Everything can't be told to people , I have never lied down here."

"You must be very good at classical Chinese and literature." Yezhou felt relieved, took the re-tempered sword, and inadvertently touched the warm jade with his fingertips.

In an instant, the warm jade hung in the air, blooming with brilliance.
