Slaying Dragon
The next day, at 11 o'clock in the morning, with a whole hour to go before the game "Tianming" started, I had an early lunch and waited for the server to open with Glasses Brother in our dorm room. At the same time, I dug out Glasses Brother's background, and it turned out that he was indeed a rich kid who made tens of millions of yuan from running a chain of internet cafes, and spent 3 million yuan to attend Tsinghua University, saying that he wanted to become a knowledgeable person. However, looking at him now, it seems like he's going to spend the next four years playing games with me and then just drift through life.
On the desk, there was a promotional magazine for Tianming, with information about various games. I flipped through it and didn't find anything out of the ordinary. However, in the game planning section, there was one main planner, four deputy planners, and over 150 planners. Among the deputy planners, one name stood out as particularly familiar - Lin Cheng!
My whole body trembled, I was stunned there, could it be... that old guy?!
Quickly moving the desk chair, Tangu was pushed away from the computer and said: "Brother Glasses, lend me your computer!"
"What's going on?" Glasses brother was shocked: "I'm going, don't be so violent, what's wrong with you, Li Xiaoyao?"
I quickly opened the webpage and searched for the keywords "Tianming + Lin Cheng". It appeared, Lin Cheng, one of the main planners of Tianming, in charge of game depth and spiritual planning. There was also a photo of him, with that old familiar smile, I immediately couldn't laugh anymore, it's really him, that old guy!
"Hey, buddy, what's wrong with you? Do you know this Lin Cheng?"
I shook my head, but didn't say a word. How could I not recognize him? I had been training with him from the age of 14 to 19, and now this old guy was actually working as the main strategist in this super popular online game?
I furrowed my brow and said, "Glasses, this game's fate is clearly just a game, why would they choose an old man like you to be the planner? It really doesn't make sense..."
The glasses brother smiled: "You don't understand this, 'Tianming' has long been promoted, one of its major features is that it gathers high-end talents from all over the world to participate in game design. For example, the world's number one swordsmith, the number one archery master, even herbalists and cultivators from remote border areas have received invitations to participate in the design. This game can be integrated with reality, making great progress in aspects such as spirit and energy, and also allows players to create their own moves, etc. In short, this is a paradise for gamers."
"Can create its own moves......" I said calmly: "So that's how it is......"
"What's wrong with you, kid? Have you gone mad?" Glasses Brother punched me.
I smiled and shook my head: "I'm fine, let's get online and wait for the game to start!"
"Hmm, Brother is now a higher level, come and I'll take you with me!"
"Take you grandfather, just don't get killed by the monsters, the game data says they are extremely ferocious, players lose a level every time they die, be careful."
"Got it, I'm a top player in Conquest, ranking 7000+, how could I possibly lose to this heavenly fate?"
"Less blowing..."
I was speechless, and at the same time, I remembered what Dong Cheng Yue said. She was ranked 79th in the online game "Conquest", an absolute top-notch player. Moreover, it's said that Lin Wan Er's ranking is even higher than hers. These people are really ruthless after getting rich and focusing on games, one more brutal than the other!
……
At 11:50, I put on the gaming headset, scanned my iris, and confirmed my player identity. Of course, the result was that I didn't have any role, and I had to create a new one. But just as I did, everything went black, and all I saw was a server countdown timer, temporarily unable to perform any operations.
After waiting for 10 minutes, I heard that the first person to enter the game will receive a reward. I didn't expect it, but I must beautify my image and then achieve my ultimate dream in life - finding a girlfriend...
“3！”
“2！”
“1！”
Finally, after a few seconds, the scene opened up, and in front of me was a magnificent yet dilapidated temple. The surroundings looked more like ruins, with blazing fireballs flying through the air. Below the mountain, a battlefield unfolded, with warhorses neighing, arrows shooting everywhere, and a sturdy tree standing tall towards the sky. Under the tree, cavalry clashed, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and one by one, savage men with fangs held up their battle-axes, letting out beast-like roars.
Atop the mountain, a beautiful maiden sat, clad in armor, narrowing her lovely eyes as she gazed out at the entire battlefield. Suddenly standing up, her two full and slender legs slightly bent, with a "whoosh" sound she soared into the sky and descended into the valley below. Her arm stretched out, a blood-red giant umbrella unfolded with a "swish", carrying her swiftly to the ground. The sword blade left its scabbard, thunderously slashing down!
"Boom!"
The sword light shattered the withered and rotten, tearing a group of barbarian cavalry into a heap of rotten flesh. The girl's mouth corners rose slightly, overflowing with confident smile, the sword blade swung, forming a circle on the spot, waves of fierce flame-like sword energy blazed, rapidly piercing and killing in the battlefield.
"Roar!"
In the midst of a loud roar, a gigantic figure descended from the air, it was a barbarian hero-level warrior wielding a golden battle-axe, the axe emitted waves of fierce flames, and fiercely chopped down towards the girl!
The girl's gaze was sharp, she sidestepped and retreated, at the same time taking down a giant crimson umbrella from behind her back. With a sudden swing, the umbrella opened up, "whoosh" sound as it transformed into a defensive shape. "Whoosh" another sound, the girl failed to defend herself, shot out like a cannonball. The barbarian charged in with his battle-axe, striking open the giant umbrella, the sharp tip of the handle "pffft" sound as it pierced into the girl's chest.
The girl opened a pair of beautiful eyes, with fierce flames burning in her pupils. A dagger flashed by, leaving a bloody mark on the neck of the barbarian. She soared into the sky, pulling the barbarian's head, and proudly flew to the top of the World Tree.
The screen suddenly shrinks, and this is just a miniature of the canyon. The entire "Tianming" world map appears before your eyes, with seven major human cities in the south, the central area occupied by the Sea Monster tribe, and the north being an unknown land. Blood-red mist surrounds the ferocious dragon heads, the brutal undead, and the barbaric giant's images. Then, the map freezes before your eyes, and the sky displays the two large characters "Tianming". The game's opening screen is exceptionally exquisite and shocking!
……
The scene then returns to the starting point, and the system spirit prompts: Please select your race!
In front of me, 5 ethnic groups appeared: Human, Undead, Moon Spirit, Barbarian, and Wind Elf. I took a glance, the Undead were too ugly, not matching my pursuit of being handsome and cool. The Moon Spirit was quite sharp, but only female players could choose it because the racial name is "Moon Spirit Maiden". The Barbarians were too rustic, the Wind Elves were born with wings and could fly, but their blood was too thin, making them easy to die. In the end, my choice was actually Human after all, Humans are good, and their image is friendly!
Confirmed, selected human race. The system automatically scanned the image, and the human male gradually transformed into my appearance, wearing a simple shirt and holding a wooden sword. Looking at this image, it's actually quite handsome, so I won't adjust the image anymore. Next, the system spirit continues to prompt: Please select your occupation!
Among the nine major professions, I admire the most is the doctor who hangs a pot. Sacrificing oneself for others and hanging a pot to save the world is indeed the heroic nature of our young heroes!
A faint smile appeared, but as soon as I thought about the next leveling route, I felt like I was too despicable...
Confirmed, a doctor with a hanging pot, in front of me appeared a 1.8-meter tall version of myself wearing casual clothes, the embryonic form of a high and handsome rich man.
System sprite continues to prompt - Please enter your name!
"Hmm, I've had this name in mind for a long time!"
A series of keyboard symbols jumped out in front of me, and I mentally directed the clicks to input Chinese characters.
Three English wars!
"Ding!"
System prompt: The name has already been used!
I clenched my fists in contempt: "Bah, someone even registered that despicable name!"
Continue, the second name I thought of is a bit more artistic -
Miss, please stop!
"Ding!"
System prompt: The name has already been used!
Another system prompt, I'm going crazy, how despicable! Continue, next name, this time make it a bit more cute, must not get snatched again!
Carefree Brother Conquers Jianghu!
"Ding!"
System prompt: The name has already been used!
"Awesome!"
I almost vomited blood. I concentrated my mind, held my breath, and gritted my teeth as I input a name that I had used a long time ago but had abandoned for an even longer time.
Carefree and at ease!
"Ding!"
System Prompt: The name has not been used, confirm?
Finally, sigh, as long as it can be named, what other requirements are there?
Confirm selection, a role is created like this, system prompt: Enter the game immediately?
After confirmation, a flash of light, I officially entered the world of "Tianming", the light in front of me scattered, and I stepped onto a simple and dilapidated platform. Several damaged stone pillars surrounded me, and further out, there were numerous new players. At the same time, the system prompted: You have been assigned to 19th Newbie Village - [Cǎo Gǒu Cūn]!
Cao Gou Village, what a great name!
Standing on the temple platform, I didn't rush to leave. One by one, players entering the game quickly drew their crude blades and rushed towards the outside of the newbie village, humming as they went to hurriedly level up.
Mental command, summon personal panel, swipe my attributes appear in front of me, indeed it's a powerful block.
Carefree and at ease (apprentice of the Hanging Gourd Doctor)
Level: 1
Attack: 1-1
Defense: 2
Life: 100
Magic: 50
Charm value: 0
……
What a domineering attribute! 1-1 attack power, can it kill a chicken? Absolutely...
In my hand is a worn-out staff, I took a glance and hummed, the 1-1 attack power originally came from this. I stepped out, not in a hurry to rush out and grab monsters, after all, it's definitely impossible to grab them before others do. As a young hero who helps those in need, one must accumulate strength quietly and wait for the right moment to strike, rather than competing with those commoners to grab the outer wild dogs.
Arriving at the blacksmith's shop, a burly man looked at me and laughed loudly: "Youngster, want to buy some weapons?"
I nodded, opened the goods list, a 1-level usable iron sword, attack power 1-3, but it costs 15 copper coins, but there are only 10 copper coins in my package that were distributed by the system.
After some thought, I put down the staff in my hand and clicked to sell it. It was sold for 7 copper coins, so now I have a total of 17 copper coins. With that, I bought an iron sword with an attack power of 1-3. The iron sword isn't a high-end weapon and doesn't require much strength. As a surgeon, sometimes I need to perform operations and wield a scalpel, and it's also how I make a living, so my wrist strength is sufficient.
Hold the iron sword and go!
