Chapter 381 Some people are like salted duck eggs

Utopia, "Magic World", Shadowfang Castle copy on the closed beta server.

“Be careful. There is a castle wolf den in front of you. There are many werewolves and ghost wolves. Neville will use his skills to immobilize him in a moment. The son of Arugal here has a skill that can cut you in half in an instant..."

　　Harry looked at Ted and said, "We'll be watching for a while! If it falls, we'll be doomed!"

 “Don’t worry!” Ted replied confidently.

Harry nodded: "Hermione, keep an eye on Ted for a while. If he runs away first, give him an ice ring to control on the ground so that he dies first!"

"What are you talking about? Can I do that kind of thing?" Ted became angry, and then looked at his friends staring directly at him, and he stopped talking, "Last time was an accident, I can't let this go in vain. Personal equipment is not. A staff with +12 healing power is very rare!"

In this game, Ted plans to break through himself and experience first-hand the performance and differences of his experimental results in the "game", and is always ready to make adjustments.

 So, this time he played a nanny profession—priest. A pure priest has basically no combat power. Add buffs, increase blood, remove negative buffs, set shields, etc.

Since this is a closed beta server, Ted set up a one-life mode in order to increase the difficulty of the game. Once the character dies, the character dies and cannot be resurrected! What level of equipment, all finished.

 So everyone plays very cautiously.

Of course, because of the tenfold experience and tenfold explosion rate, it is also very simple to create a new character.

Now, the most skilled group of people can already train a new character to level 25 in five hours!

As for the last dungeon, Ted and the others were only a third of the way into the dungeon when a loophole appeared... Seeing that nothing could be done, Ted turned around and ran away!

 Out of the six people, he was the only one who was supposed to gain blood and ran away.

Hence the current scene.

 Speaking of time, if there were iron chains now, Harry could tie Ted to Hermione's waistband!

 Six-person team, Neville professional paladin, main T, resistant to damage, attracting hatred.

 Harley Warrior, main physical output, can be used as a secondary T at critical moments.

 Jerry the Thief, pathfinding, sneak attack, lock picking, single point physical output.

 Ron Magic Warlock, a branch of the Warlock profession, can summon his own special magic robot~, it is considered a composite profession, with spell damage and summoning.

Hermione is a mage, majoring in ice and minoring in arcane magic. Her main focus is control and group spell damage.

 Finally, there’s Ted’s pastor.

No one played this profession at first, because it was impossible to defeat monsters without one. Others hit three, but you didn't kill any of them. The upgrade is too slow and you lack the means to do damage. It's like fighting with monsters!

 But later everyone discovered that the priest is very useful when he rises. Not to mention the pure priest, it is very useful in assisting and adding blood. Priests also have a branch called Shadow Priests, which reverse all the positive effects and have many disgusting debuffs!

And pure priests can also complete a career-specific task and obtain the "Resurrection" skill!

In the game, isn’t it possible to restart the game after the character dies? If there is a priest who can resurrect you, there is no need! At most, you’ll lose some experience!

 This discovery immediately gave the priest profession an epic upgrade.

 This resurrection is the result of Ted’s recent research.

 Wasn’t he studying the soul some time ago? There have been some results recently.

Although I have conducted many experiments with magical animals, it is still very unsafe without human experiments.

 So, Ted wanted to try it in the game. Although there is definitely a gap between this and real resurrection, it doesn't matter, because there are at least hundreds of deaths every day in the game, and a large amount of data is collected. This is better than conducting several human experiments in reality!

Just yesterday, in response to the call of the majority of netizens, Ted released another 500 internal test accounts.

 Now some people have begun to think about sub-jobs, such as shamanic potions, alchemy, machinery, herbal medicine, magical animal feeding, leatherworking, forging... After all, not everyone is suitable for fighting.

There are even a small number of players who don’t like to fight and kill, and don’t like to be busy. They just check in at various beautiful attractions in the game!

Enthused to explore this half-finished magical world, explore those magical places without human traces everywhere, and then post them online!

Although there are already 700 players, there are still more people who cannot join the game, and they are all screaming in frustration!

Ted has announced on the official website that "Magic World" will be fully open beta after Shadowfang Castle is captured.

As for Shadowfang Castle, the team with the highest progress has already reached three-quarters of the way.

It was a group of young people in their twenties who had just graduated and were addicted to games for more than ten hours a day.

You have to say that they are wasting their lives. People who are addicted to the game can unexpectedly enhance their control over magic in reality. There are some magic spells that are very close to reality and can even help you enhance your control over this magic. Control.

Some wizards even tried it in real life. The precious magic potion formula they obtained during the mission turned out to be really useful! It's true! The game official has put real and precious potion recipes into the game for everyone to learn!

 Now, some people have begun to try to restore some of the magic in the game in reality.

 Magic is, after all, a manifestation of the wizard's will, so as long as the magical effect is not too outrageous, it is really possible to achieve it!

The magical world that had stopped spinning like a rusty windmill had started to spin again because of Utopia.

Oh, by the way, if we follow the intensity in the game, even if there are a thousand werewolves in Shadowfang Castle in reality, they will all be killed by now.

 So, in fact, they were all resurrected after being killed!

  Ted created a mirror world through Utopia, imprisoning their souls in the Utopia world, and controlled them like the creator.

 Can make them live, can make them die, can make them stronger, can give them abilities and upgrade their levels...

These werewolves can't even feel Ted's existence, they can't feel that they die more than a dozen times a day, they can't feel that they are being controlled, they can't feel the words that Ted put into their heads... They think that their wolf life is theirs. Yes, actually not.

 Now Ted is even trying to add the soul of the fallen demon into the game, trying to create new monsters in the Shadowfang Castle replica. After all, there were not enough werewolves anymore, and they couldn't reproduce, so someone had to be killed. Not enough to kill!

 …

 In mid-November, there was a Quidditch match, which used to be very lively now.

 But now, due to "Magic World", there are no students in the school except for classes, and the attention of Quidditch has also dropped to the freezing point in history.

 Professor McGonagall was very angry about this and introduced many policies, but unfortunately to no avail. After all, not everything can be changed by policy. Many people cannot learn to respect the objective laws of how things work.

Although students are now focused on how to become stronger in the game and how to get some good equipment, after all, Quidditch has been the only sport in the wizarding world for hundreds of years, and some people still see its deep roots.

Not to mention that the Quidditch players from each college still have to participate in training and prepare for the competition.

 This is often the time when various colleges are at odds with each other.

 This year is no exception. Gryffindor and Slytherin had another friction due to the scrum training.

 After that, someone from the despicable Slytherin attacked a **** the Gryffindor team from behind—a hair-growing curse directly turned the girl into a golden monkey! The eyebrows are a foot long! His face is covered with hair!

It must be said that Ted's influence on Hogwarts has been very profound. For various reasons, mainly the launch of Utopia, students have a very strong research atmosphere, especially many young wizards like to study in Utopia. Try to improve and create magic spells in the countryside.

 Some people have tried the “hair removal spell” before! There was really no hair on the whole body!

 Finally, after more than a dozen young wizards went bald for more than a week, they finally developed a hair removal spell that preserves eyebrows, eyelashes, and hair!

 This is much more convenient and saves money than applying hair removal potion every month! And it lasts for a long time. If the spell continues, not a single hair will grow for half a year. It's smooth and feels good in the hand - I mean the legs!

 And this hair-growing curse is also the same improved version many times, and the effect is very overbearing. When they were sent to the school hospital, Madam Pomfrey shook her head and said that she would be unable to leave the school hospital within three days.

 Some students proposed using a hair removal spell to counteract the problem, but it was rejected. This kind of curse confrontation can sometimes be quite fierce, and it is a bit dangerous to do this on people. It would be better to spend a few more days to let the effects of the spell out.

 Because of this incident, Lion Court and Snake Court are opening again!

 As soon as both parties took out their wands, Snape appeared. Faced with the testimony of fourteen Gryffindor witnesses, Snape blocked them all with his very thick skin.

The little lions saw the little snakes following their dean triumphantly.

Surely this matter can’t end like this?

 Let’s make a fight! If you don’t come, you will be the **** in the black lake!

The little lions are still there cheering and boosting morale - do you want to be a coward for the rest of your life, or do you want to be a hero, even if it's just for a minute!

Slytherin did not intend to abide by the rules, but planned to take action in advance and ambush the little lions on the only way.

 As soon as I contacted him, no one was there!

 Finally, the organizers stopped a little snake that exited the game and came out to urinate.

“Follow me quickly and ambush Gryffindor!”

“Um...next time! Next time! I’ve defeated a wild boss in the game, and my teammates are still waiting for me. I’ll definitely do it next time!”

Slytherin saw that this was no good. If he went to an appointment, his **** would be torn open by those reckless Gryffindors!

This date is cancelled, no! It’s a different battlefield! Let’s have a group PK at the gate of the main city of the Magic World!

There are no professors there, and there is no fear of injury. Let's give it a try, do you dare?

How about saying that Slytherin is a thief? He obviously didn't dare to keep the appointment, but he said he wanted to change the battlefield.

Sure enough, if you make a fight in the game, there will be more people!

 The two sides lined up at the gate of the main city, with a total of fifty or sixty people!

In reality, Umbridge was hiding in ambush at the meeting place with several students who had taken refuge with her, hoping to catch them all in one fell swoop to increase her authority. Wait until the moon comes out...

 …

 In the game, the little snake and the little lion are talking trash to each other across the road at the gate of the city. The scene was very lively!

There must be hundreds of people watching the fun!

Many wizards who have graduated many years ago or are foreign wizards have never seen this scene before. It is a novelty. There is even a wizard selling snacks on one side - this is a player who has learned cooking as a secondary job.

 They don’t fight monsters, they save money by “doing business” and buy them from other players.

In the crowd, Ted and Snape were quietly watching the "Hogwarts Martial Arts Tournament".

Ted handed Snape a handful of spiced melon seeds. Snape took it expressionlessly, tried to eat one, and then felt his magic power recover faster.

He glanced at Ted... He still didn't understand how Ted created such a thing as Utopia? This is simply creating a virtual world made of magic!

However, Ted and Snape were disappointed. Both sides talked trash for several pages but did not take action. On the one hand, there are guards at the gate of the city. If you fight, you will be arrested and locked up in a small dark room.

On the other hand, it’s really heartbreaking to die!

 Finally, both sides decided to start a 5V5 wheel battle. The winner is the one who is left in the end, and the loser will retreat from now on!

 Ted: Good guy, Sanshe? Didn't that mean retreating to Hogsmeade? !

 Neville went out to fight as a lion, and shouted: "The first sword of China, the White Emperor's Holy Sword, Yujian, follow me! Ula~"

He was full of golden light, and a fierce slashing killing. With the tenacity of the Paladin and his own tenacity, he killed two and killed one.

 Okay, there’s no need to read the rest~

 …

 That afternoon, the Internet addiction team finally rushed to the final boss "Arugao"!

This Arugao was "created" by Ted himself. He is of moderate strength, but also relatively difficult to deal with.

In the end, after twelve minutes of fierce fighting, the seven-man team tragically killed six people and finally defeated this boss who could flash away at any time, use group curses, and group shadow arrows. In fact, Ted had already informed Parker to lower the difficulty because it was time for a public beta.

Parker issued an announcement that the game will be updated tonight and open beta tomorrow!

 The forum suddenly went crazy!

The video of an Internet-addicted team working hard to defeat Arugao was pinned to the top. In just five minutes, it had more than 300 comments underneath.

 In addition, there are some other posts that have just been posted.

　　　«Please help, let a werewolf escape and attract half the monsters in the castle, otherwise the first kill will be ours! How to fight against Shabi’s teammates to relieve their hatred! 》

 "Shocking! According to reliable news, the research and development system will be opened in the public beta version of "Magic World"! This virtual world is becoming more and more real! 》

　　《Shocked, I discovered the hidden mission! How to turn on the favorability of the hidden NPC Red Dragon Anna! 》

 …

 An hour later, the game was closed. The little wizard, who had been in the magical world for more than half a month, felt a little uncomfortable and looked at the real world in front of him with some strangeness.

Ted took off his gaming glasses and looked at the scenery in the distance outside the window. There was no green in the Forbidden Forest anymore. The leaves had almost fallen off and were covered in dust.

 At this time, Hermione's paper crane arrived. After opening it, it read: I won’t go out tonight, I have to review and prepare for the exam in a month.

“Strange, why don’t you use a double-sided mirror? How convenient is it to talk on the phone?”

 Perhaps it’s the mood. After all, sometimes words are more powerful.

Ted began to reply:

"When I saw your words, my defense was completely broken. I immediately lost my armor. The moment I saw your words, I was sweating profusely and my whole body was cold. My jade syndrome suddenly broke out, and my life seemed to have lost its color. .Like a Saiyan whose tail is caught, an esper with a seastone, a jinchūriki who has been separated from a tailed beast, like Ultraman who has lost his light..."

Ted: Just in time to do the experiment tonight!

 As a result, Ted, who was already going to do the experiment, welcomed Hermione.

 “I can’t say it anymore, do you want to review it?”

"How is it? Are you surprised?!" Hermione shook off her skirt, her face flushed rosy red.

Ted: "This outfit..."

 Hermione: "Do you like it? I bought it from a Muggle underwear store~"

"like!"

Let’s just say: Some people are just like this salted duck egg, which looks white on the outside but yellow and oily on the inside~

 …

At this time, in Egypt, North Africa, Grindelwald, who had not heard from him for many days, was chatting cordially with the Egyptian Minister of Magic.

The Egyptian minister of magic with his head covered kissed his ring very respectfully.

There are many wizards standing around, the young ones among them are already in their seventies or eighties.

 These are the core core of the saints!

While Dumbledore was fighting Voldemort, Grindelwald was not idle either.
