The next day.
Bubble knelt in front of the portal of his own base. Behind him, all the players who were fanatical about Coke had logged in, and the NPCs in the base had also come over to watch this historic moment.
'Portal energy 99.9%'
This line of numbers appeared in front of all the players. Bubble only needed to throw one more mother crystal into the energy pool, and the construction of the portal would be completely completed!
"Do I need to do any bathing or incense burning rituals?" Bubble looked very nervous as he stood in front of the portal energy pool that was bubbling with all kinds of bubbles.
"President, stop wasting time! Throw it away now!"
“It says it’s ready to go!”
The crowd of players watching the scene couldn't wait to take Freya back to the Holy Spirit World, or to take Freya to visit their own homes.
The official website has already announced that the AR version will be available after the portal is opened. Although there is a small reminder on the official website that it is still in the testing phase, this is enough to make many Holy Spirit players restless.
"Throw it away, throw it away!"
Bubble didn't keep the secret any longer. He made a baseball throwing motion and suddenly threw a dark purple mother crystal in his hand into the energy pool of the portal.
Electric arcs burst out from the energy pool, like a giant python that suddenly pounced out and bit the mother crystal in mid-air, devouring it completely.
Less than two seconds after being swallowed, this stone portal that looked like several base stations burst out with dazzling light, and the light began to spread throughout the stronghold and covered the coastal area.
"What the hell? What kind of spectacular building is this?"
“It’s a little bit cool!”
The Coke fanatics who were watching around thought that this portal... was just a teleportation plane built in the center of the four stone base stations. After all, all the portals of Holy Spirit at this stage are like this. When players walk in, a reading bar will begin, and when the reading bar is finished, it will be a new copy, or a new map.
But the portal built in the stronghold is obviously not just a simple teleportation plane. It... completely changes the view of the Coke Frenzy sky and the ocean in the distance.
The sea horizon in the distance has completely disappeared, replaced by a scenery that looks like...a waterfall.
'The portal to the Coke Mania base has been built in the distance, and the Saints of the base have been awarded the title of "Brand Island Pioneers."
'Main Quest 4: Portal Construction Completed! You have obtained the Ring of the Pioneering Griffin.'
At this moment, several task completion reminders popped up in front of Bubble's eyes, along with a system world channel broadcast that a portal had been built!
This time, Coke Mania was truly ahead of all the guilds! And they showed off in front of 60,000 newbies.
So what if Leaping Nuclear pays you a salary? You have to pay us if you want to enter new maps in the future!
Bubble chose the path to a peaceful world in the main quest Five: Portal Choice without a second thought. His wife's safety is more important.
Although Bubble's Freya lived comfortably in the stronghold, some strange siege monsters would occasionally appear on Brand Island. The last siege by the Spell Thief made Bubble determined to make Freya move to another place.
'A new map, the otherworld, is now open! A new event, the prelude to the otherworld, is now open! Have fun, holy spirits!'
Another new prompt suddenly popped up at this time. Before Bubble could figure out what the other world was, he turned around and looked at the hundreds of players behind him and said.
"Who wants to be the first person to go to the new map?" Bubble wasn't quite sure what world this portal led to, but he still had to show off!
Building the portal took so much energy, time and money. This time, Bubble became the most eye-catching player in the entire server, and he had to show off.
But before Bubble’s pretentious journey could even begin... a roar that shouldn’t have appeared around the initial base startled the players who were in the carnival atmosphere.
"President...President!" McCafé rolled all the way back from outside the base. Halfway through her run, she fell to the ground.
"What's wrong?" Bubble also heard the strange roar. He always felt that this roar was a little... familiar
"The pig-headed NPC... stole... the Flame Cinder Dragon's egg!" McAfee said incoherently.
The egg of the cinder dragon!
Damn! That is something more valuable than the Flame Cinder Dragon Mother Crystal. Bubble has always been eyeing the Flame Cinder Dragon Eggs. If it weren't for the fact that Flame Cinder Dragon's wife was so scary, Bubble would definitely get the three Flame Cinder Dragon eggs.
It is not a problem to sell an egg for around 500,000.
Bubble knew that some NPCs from other guilds who had stealing skills would steal monster eggs for them, but those eggs were all small monsters with low training value.
Who was it? It was the thief from my guild who stole the Flame Dragon's egg. Wait... the Flame Dragon's egg was stolen, which means...
"Was that roar just now from the Flame Cinder Dragon?" Bubble was confused. He no longer needed McCafe to answer this question. Outside the city wall of the stronghold, a flaming monster stepped down from the city wall, and then the monster aimed directly at Bubble and pounced on it.
"Another monster siege! Is it possible that it will be triggered once the portal is built? Everyone protect the ancient stone tree! And the NPCs!"
When Bubble saw the Flame Cinder Dragon standing on the city wall like a fire god descended from earth, his head hurt so much that it felt like it was about to explode!
He positioned his guild as a travel guild. In addition, because it was located next to the initial stronghold, the defense of the stronghold was no match for the Abyss Temple, which was blocking the entrance to the monster's lair.
When Bubble called on the players under his command to resist the attack of the Flame Cinder Dragon...the Flame Cinder Dragon's attack was not aimed at him.
Someone who just passed him by.
Bubble couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, but he could see the ID above his head...Crystal Hunter Shari.
She brushed past the bubble and rushed straight towards the portal behind the bubble. Her figure disappeared in the portal, and the next moment the huge body of the Flame Cinder Dragon also pounced into the portal and disappeared.
Bubble fell to the ground and was stunned. It was fine if NPCs could pass through the portal, but how could wild monsters pass through as well
"President... our portal's first blood was taken by the Flame Cinder Dragon?"
"The Flame Cinder Dragon is so powerful, it's worth it to take it."
"Quickly look at where the portal leads to!" Sprite grabbed Bubble by the collar and threw it towards the portal.
The bubble crawled to the ground... stretched out its head and immersed itself in the aperture of the portal. On the other side of the portal... was a sky with no end.
A corner of Brand Island was floating in the sky 10,000 meters above the ground! Below the sky was a place that Bubble was very familiar with… the upper city in the real world.
… … …
An hour ago.
A holographic projection exhibition in Upper Town.
Zhao Mingwei didn't like the feeling of being squeezed by people, especially when the people squeezing him were a group of acquaintances.
"President, did you step on my foot?"
"Coach Song, I saw Bubble Blow said their portal has been built. Are we really not going online to take a look?"
"Whoever of you can break through this crowd will be able to go back online."
"Oh my god! If I had just flown all the way out in the game."
"It's too difficult to fly out, just kill your way out. This dungeon shouldn't be difficult."
Compared to the Coke fanatics who spent this important day in the game, nearly half of the members of Leaping Nuclear gathered in Shangcheng Waijiang to enjoy the first holographic projection show in human history.
But to be honest, the beginning of this holographic projection exhibition was a bit boring, as the entire projection was projected onto the surface of the river.
The first hour was completely a holographic projection version of a senior citizen musical, but maybe this is what representatives from all over the world like. Mo Shigui didn’t quite understand it, and the entire Waijiang was still packed with people.
The projection performance that was like a cultural and artistic performance suddenly ended, and a pitch-black dragon appeared on the river. The audience watching outside the river cheered.
"Oh! Dissidia CG! Seeing a heroic BOSS for the first time in real life is really impressive."
"Is that the dragon Ollie?"
"Dispute is awesome."
The members of Leaping Atom also recognized that this was the level 90 final BOSS in the dispute. When the dragon appeared above the river, the surrounding spectators and passers-by took out their mobile phones and frantically took photos and recorded videos.
The popularity of Dissension is absolutely unquestionable! Moreover, as a gaming company, Dissension actually participated in this world-class holographic projection exhibition, which was enough for Dissension players to brag about it on Weibo forums.
"Isn't the modeling precision a little too low?" But Mo Shigui still found some flaws. What was exhibited by Fenzheng was obviously a CG holographic projection replica of "Dragon War", but the modeling precision of this CG was so low that Mo Shigui frowned.
"It's already done to the extreme. You've been playing Holy Spirit too much recently." Zhao Mingwei next to him pointed out the reason why Mo Shigui felt that the modeling of Dissension was not detailed enough.
Zhao Mingwei doesn't hate any game including Dissidia, but the difference in graphics between Holy Spirit and Dissidia can be seen with the naked eye. The reason why Mo Shigui thinks that the graphics of Dissidia are bad is not because the graphics of this game are really bad, but because the graphics of Holy Spirit are really unreasonable.
“It’s also good. It feels great to see a game CG exhibit at an exhibition that will determine the future of mankind.” said Heiguo Zhurou next to him.
The promotion of this holographic projection exhibition is that it is the technology that will determine the future of mankind, and it is also a top exhibition that attracts attention from all over the world.
"Yeah." Mo Shigui nodded slightly. The CG of the dragon battle in the distance was still going on. It was nothing more than using CG to simulate the battle between several players and the dragon Ollie.
But the viewing effect of holographic projection is actually not as good as that of display screen and VR. Mo Shigui thinks it is because the sun has not completely set yet.
The time is now six o'clock in the afternoon. The sky in the distance has become completely dark, but a small spot of sunset can still be seen on the distant horizon.
He couldn't complain too much, because the audience around him had completely entered a state of frenzy. Watching the dragon slaying was much more exciting than watching the elderly singing and dancing performance for an hour before.
When Mo Shigui and Zhao Mingwei took out their mobile phones to record this scene, Mo Shigui suddenly heard the voice of a little girl.
"Mom! Look at the meteor!" The little girl's voice caught Mo Shigui's attention. He raised his head and looked at the sky in the direction the little girl's hand pointed. Sure enough, a flaming meteor was falling vertically from the sky...
What happens when you fall down
Mo Shigui widened his eyes. The star was wrapped in scorching flames and dragging a long tail as it fell towards here!
At this moment, the afterglow of the sun on the other side of the horizon suddenly disappeared completely, which meant that the sun had completely set. But in the next second after the sun's rays disappeared, the meteor suddenly hit the TV tower opposite the Waijiang River with a destructive attitude.
This landmark building in Waijiang was instantly melted and collapsed...
But the next second, scorching flames and magma completely erupted with the meteor as the center, and waves of flames dozens of meters high swept in all directions. The exploding flames were so hot that even Mo Shigui found it a little dazzling.
When the hot and dazzling waves of flames subsided... a new sun rose in the center of the river!
Flame Cinder Dragon!
Why is the Holy Ghost monster here
Mo Shigui stared blankly at the TV tower across from him. The TV tower was still standing in the real world, so...what about the collapsed TV tower? Was it a holographic projection
This sense of immersion is too real, isn’t it
Mo Shigui indeed could not feel any heat. The Flame Cinder Dragon was clearly standing above the river. In the game, just getting close to the Flame Cinder Dragon would cause one to lose blood continuously without taking a cold drink.
This also indirectly shows that...this is just a holographic projection performance.
"What kind of monster is that from Conflict? Why haven't I seen it before?" asked Hei Guo Zhu Rou.
"Zhu Rou, you have amnesia recently! The Flame Cinder Dragon! That's the Flame Cinder Dragon in the Holy Spirit... Damn! Is this a CG performance of the Holy Spirit directly intruding into the conflict? But looking at the fineness of the modeling and the special effects, the word 'awesome' is no longer enough to describe it." Mama Yougou barked as she looked at the Flame Cinder Dragon standing in the distance and sighed constantly. He could clearly see every bristle and every scale on the Flame Cinder Dragon's body.
"Didn't you turn on the special effects just now?"
"Are we looking at a holographic projection made by the same machine? Oh my god, is this dragon also from Dissidia?"
The passers-by watching around were confused and excited at the same time. The special effects of the Flame Cinder Dragon were completely on a different level from the previous holographic projection show.
Gorgeous, noble, brutal, the might of the strongest lord of the island was truly presented in front of everyone. Just where the Flame Cinder Dragon stood, the neon lights of the city instantly became dim.
The flames burning on its body and the light it emitted were like a sun that completely lit up the entire night sky.
But this time, the Sun was in a bad mood. It roared angrily again, and rushed towards the crowd of onlookers with the hot lava under its feet.
"Mingwei!" Mo Shigui subconsciously called out Zhao Mingwei as he looked at the Flame Cinder Dragon running towards him.
But when he turned his head, he found that Zhao Mingwei was gone!
Sure enough...even if it was a holographic projection, seeing such a huge monster rushing towards you aggressively was a very exciting experience for some players and passers-by.
But the majority of people were timid and fearful. If the Flame Cinder Dragon really pounced directly into the crowd, panic would have spread.
"Isn't this just something the authorities use to scare people?"
"Can you lower the brightness of that dragon? It hurts my eyes when I get close to it!"
“He really pounced upon me!”
Mo Shigui looked at the Flame Cinder Dragon not far away. It took almost a moment for this monster, which was nearly fifteen meters long, to cross the river. Naturally, it came in front of the crowd in an instant, and then with another roar, it swung its giant claws in its hand and wanted to slap it down.
Screams rang in Mo Shigui's ears. Mo Shigui subconsciously wanted to raise his shield and draw the sword in his hand, but he found that he didn't have a shield in his hand, only a mobile phone!
Mo Shigui watched the Flame Cinder Dragon's sharp claws swinging down, but at that moment he heard another roar.
Mo Shigui was very familiar with this roar! That was Zhao Mingwei's Golden Thunder Tiger!
The back of a man in a monk's robe appeared in front of all the onlookers. The light of mental energy flowed through his body, and a huge golden thunder tiger was released from his body. The claws of the golden thunder tiger directly pressed against the sharp claws of the Flame Cinder Dragon.
For a moment...in the struggle between the Golden Thunder Tiger and the Flame Cinder Dragon, the Golden Thunder Tiger actually had the upper hand!
"Mr. Xiao?" When the members of the guild saw this scene, they immediately recognized who the figure was.
"No...he is the Mad Tiger Emperor!" Mo Shigui said in a low voice.
The moment Mo Shigui finished speaking...
"Sit down!" Zhao Mingwei's voice resounded in everyone's ears. The Golden Thunder Tiger let out a terrifying roar and suddenly turned its claws around. With this powerful force, it threw the previously invincible Flame Cinder Dragon out of the outer river area in an instant. Its huge body fell heavily onto the surface of the river.
The Flame Cinder Dragon did not suffer any damage, but the duration of the Golden Thunder Tiger had ended. The huge phantom gradually disappeared, and the Flame Cinder Dragon roared at Zhao Mingwei again in anger.
“Let’s go…” Mo Shigui laughed out loud when he saw this scene.
"Where to go?" Heiguozhurou was still a little confused.
"Go find a place to log in! Gather! Fight in a group! Do you want your comrades to fight the lord-level monsters alone?" Mo Shigui shouted, "Everyone! It's time to fight!"
The players of the Leaping Atom Guild realized it instantly... The Flame Cinder Dragon didn't seem to be a real-time CG, but a monster that could be conquered in reality!
