Green mountains and forests.
Along with a gust of wind, Xiao Zhi's figure appeared in the forest.
He didn't know anything about the situation after he left, he just felt a little heartbroken looking at a withered leaf in his hand.
This is a random teleportation item called [Wandering Leaf], and it is a one-off.
In ZERO, teleportation items are all extremely expensive. This thing was very expensive when there was no inflation, and now it is even more expensive, making Xiao Zhi's heart hurt just looking at it.
Probably would rather die once than use this if he's just playing games. But as far as the current situation is concerned, he is worried that if he dies, he will really burp, and no matter how painful he is, he will have to use it to get out.
Throwing away the dead leaves in his hands, Xiao Zhi felt that he was getting closer to the abyss of poverty
Looking at the surrounding environment, [Wandering Leaf] seems to have brought him to the Chiba country bordering Hesse.
Chiba Kingdom is one of the forces on the Dazemenya continent.
It is mainly composed of wood elves, and there are also humans and some mild-mannered orcs. The natural environment here is comfortable, the products are rich, and the law and order are good. Many players like to buy houses here, and it is jokingly called a sanctuary for the elderly.
Xiao Zhi opened his backpack and wanted to tidy up his belongings, but unexpectedly found that his game interface lit up.
He checked his interface and found that all the functions except the logout had been restored. Although he was still unable to leave the game, it was much better than before, and he couldn't help feeling a burst of joy in his heart.
Wearing the same handsome face as a wanted criminal is too dangerous in the game, so Xiao Zhi clicked on the face pinching interface to change his face.
ZERO allows players to pinch their faces again, but it does not support the import of pinched face data, and it is particularly unfriendly to disabled players. But where there is demand, there is industry, and many players have also taken the opportunity to develop plastic surgery business.
Xiao Zhi's original occupation was a human figure artist. His works follow the route of exquisite and gorgeous, unique personal style. He has many fans on social media, so naturally pinching his face will not trouble him.
Before, he squeezed a few faces and saved them, but he didn't expect them to come in handy now.
After a while, Xiao Zhi's original appearance was replaced by a bookish face with warm brows and eyes.
He smiled slightly, revealing a gentle and clean feeling, looking very pure and innocent, without the slightest aura of chopping cubs. In this way, he doesn't have to worry about being wanted for the time being.
Although it is not clear why his name is not on the wanted warrant, the safest thing to do is to change his name too.
It's a pity that Xiao Zhi doesn't have any rename props on him, and ZERO doesn't have a system store. Players need to explore and obtain rename props by themselves, and now it can only be done temporarily.
Anyway, in the game, the name above the player's head will not be directly displayed, and there will be no prompts if he is attacked. If he wants to know his name, he must exchange friends, or Xiao Zhi himself will chat anonymously on the World Channel and forums to expose himself.
After solving the most important problem, Xiao Zhi began to think about other things.
In ZERO, players' online activities will consume physical strength and need to rest and recover, whether offline or online.
But when resting, the player's body is not protected by the system and will be hurt.
When the server was first launched, players with strong heads went offline directly in the city, but were stolen by NPCs and thrown outside the city the next day; Someone wiped his neck, or was sold as a miner.
Countless players have experimented with their own lives and property and came to a conclusion—you must find a safe place to log off!
Players in the city usually choose a hotel. If you are in the wild, you can set up a tent to make do with it. Those who are rich will buy a house by themselves.
Xiao Zhi dared to go offline in Hessen before, because no monsters and players would pass by under that tree, and Asen would always guard him, but this can no longer be the case.
"Sure enough, we still have to consider the issue of money." Xiao Zhi sighed.
He stretched out his hand, and drew a circle with his fingertips in the air. The next moment, a heavy book appeared in Xiao Zhi's hand.
The address book, also known as the Athanasi Happy Book, is a communication system between players, and it is embodied in the form of a book. Functions such as world channels, private chats, and forums are all on it.
Other races on the mainland cannot see the contents of the address book, so there are rumors that this is the source of power for the Athanasi people.
The players laughed and said nothing, after all, the system didn't let them tell the truth.
Opening the address book, Xiao Zhi simply used the forum posts to look at the changes over the years.
Now, mankind has entered the interstellar era. The sphere of influence of human beings covers the three major galaxies of the Milky Way, the Aquamarine System, and the Cang Galaxy. However, no new intelligent race has been discovered, and aliens are still an eternal topic of discussion.
The lifespan of human beings has been greatly improved due to the emergence of immortality technology, and it is no longer limited to just a hundred years. Life has become longer, and human beings have more life pursuits.
At the same time, he also discovered that it turns out that six hundred years have actually passed since his time.
This made Xiao Zhi feel puzzled. Since he traveled six hundred years ago, why did Hessen's arrest warrant only hang up for more than five hundred years
It stands to reason that more than five hundred years ago, there should have been no such person as myself in this world, right
He also specifically searched for news related to the Lord of Hesse.
It turned out that this boss was very mysterious. Apart from knowing that his name was Frost, he didn't have any clear information. His age was unknown, his appearance was ominous, his race was suspected to be undead, and his past experience was ominous.
He rarely left Hesse. Over the years, players have not even taken a clear screenshot.
Either it was a distant dark figure, or a white bone dragon crossing the sky, or a windy and rigid bone carriage, and it was hard to see whether he was round or flat.
"Frost?" Xiao Zhi whispered the name. He searched his memory, but there was no information about the name.
Will my arrest warrant be related to this person
Unable to think of an answer, Xiao Zhi could only temporarily put aside this doubt and continue to read other news.
ZERO has been in operation for more than 600 years, and it is a miracle in the history of mankind. Whether it is a game of the same era or a game that appeared later, no game can have such vitality.
And, as time goes by, the world of ZERO is getting bigger and bigger and richer in content.
Players often feel that they are not just playing the game, but actually living in a real world. So there are many people who directly make a living in the game, or come to retire after they get old, and regard this place as the second world.
The current highest level has reached 240, and most players' levels are in the range of 150200.
Compared with the era of keyboard online games, ZERO's level cap is not opened quickly, and there are no rules at all. It generally follows the development progress of players and the development of the mainland.
Thinking about his pitiful level 50, Xiao Zhi ranked the importance of leveling up as the first priority in his heart. If he wanted to avoid hiccups, he had to become stronger himself.
Suddenly, a hot post on the forum was pushed to the front page:
[Title: In order to save the big underpants that are on the verge of collapse, I have evil thoughts towards the big brother]
The beginning of this title is quite difficult to describe, but it is very attractive.
Xiao Zhi clicked in and took a look, the host's ID was called "Legendary Watermelon".
He cried and told the tragic story that because he was greedy for Hessian's gratitude, he was hanged and beaten by an unknown boss, then he was brutally beaten by the lord of Hessian, and finally he lost his pants and was beaten again.
There are a few screenshots attached to the post, it is Xiao Zhi's battle against several players, but the shooting method is a bit too casual, making people dizzy, because of the cloak, Xiao Zhi's face was not captured.
At the same time, there is also a short video attached, the video is still very rubbish, but it shows Xiao Zhi's neat fighting posture, and his 22 bursts of fireballs.
1L. Gold underpants:
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha the host is so miserable.
2L. I just pass by:
Fuck! 22 bursts! This skill is definitely a master!
3L. Do not eat coriander:
The power of the skill is so low, it seems that the level is not high. Do you know any well-known Faye who deleted his account and restarted
11L. Melon Field Yiba:
Delete number? ! ! I can smell the melon!
112L. Don't lie to me:
Looking at this level of operation, could it be Luo Ye
113L. Reply 112L with the wind:
Don't spread rumors upstairs, just now I saw that Luo Ye and his teammates went to the dungeon.
115L. I really don't eat:
And Ruoye is a wind method, this one looks like playing with fire.
289L. A little cool on the top of the head:
Could it be Vulcan? This big guy hasn't come out for a long time.
299L. Vulcan:
Thank you for your concern, but the old man is already a farming player, don't worry about it.
300L. A small dish returns 299L:
Fuck the boss himself! group photo!
301L. Naming is so difficult. Reply 299L:
Group photo +1
302L. I am no longer a human being. Reply to 299L:
Group photo +2
…
1032L. Witty young man:
Do you think it could be Longinus? Want to re-train a mage to defeat Luo Ye
1033L. Melon Field Yiba:
Hey... Having said that... the melon in my hand suddenly became sweeter.
1034 L. Longinus:
Pooh! I don't want to play a mage, I want to be a swordsman, and fight Ruo Ye with dignity! ! @胡叶, let’s fight! Let's fight! Let's fight! Let's fight! Let's fight!
1035L. Wakaba replied 1034L:
hehe.
Among the various speculations of the players, Xiao Zhi noticed an inconspicuous reply.
1152L. Anonymous player:
The boss beats you lightly, do you know what will happen to you after you are taken away
Out of curiosity, I asked my brother to pinch my face and send me there, but after Hessen found out that I was not that person, he asked me to explain who sent me here.
But, I was just out of curiosity! Really no one instructed me!
But they didn't believe me, so they threw me into the dungeon. The experience there was like 21 bans. The system gave me a mosaic, and I finally got the chance to die. Since then, I have always walked around when I saw Hesse.
Xiao Zhi: "..."
On the road to death, players are always full of motivation.
Fortunately, he ran fast, Xiao Zhi didn't want to experience the little black house for himself at all.
It seems that it is better not to sell those Hessian rare materials in his bag. If something is accidentally exposed, it will be miserable if someone misses it. In the future, I should find an opportunity to use some anonymous means to sell the props I collected before.
After flipping through some information posts, Xiao Zhi decided to go to Chiba Kingdom next. It has been very peaceful recently, and the residents are not exclusive. It is suitable for low-level players to do task upgrades.
After clicking on the map and looking at it, Xiao Zhi walked in the direction of Qianye Kingdom.
·
While walking, Xiao Zhi's thoughts could not help drifting to Asen.
They first met when ZERO was just starting operations.
The birth points of the players are all random, but Xiao Zhi's luck is not very good, he was directly thrown into Hesse, and a lowest-level skeleton rushed towards him.
After a life-and-death battle between a novice mage who has no power to bind a chicken and a low-level skeleton who may only have the power to bind a chicken, Xiao Zhi successfully got rid of the skeleton by virtue of his long legs.
But at the same time, he also ran a long way in the Hesse, and he couldn't find his way.
I don't know how long I walked, a touch of white appeared in front of me. In the dark forest, a white tree is very conspicuous, Xiao Zhi subconsciously walked towards that direction.
A sleeping person appeared at the same time as the big white tree.
He was lying on the skeleton of an unknown creature, with silver hair spread out, naked body, slender and muscular but well-proportioned like a work of art, with his eyes closed, he looked quiet and serene, such a composition seemed to be a famous painting handed down from generation to generation.
Xiao Zhi was stunned at the time: "Brother, are you so big-hearted that you fell asleep after walking the birds here?"
Startled by the sound, the sleeping man opened his eyes.
Those were a pair of platinum-like light-colored pupils with a metallic luster. Such eyes should be cold, but there is only ignorance and bewilderment in them.
Xiao Zhi tried to say hello to him: "Hello, my name is 7654321."
The man just looked at him, blinking suspiciously.
After a while, he spoke with difficulty: "7..."
Xiao Zhi discovered that this person did not seem to be a player.
However, ZERO claims to be the smartest holographic game, are the npcs in it at this level
I don't know if it's too late to refund the money now
Although the idea of refunding the money flashed in his mind, because this little brother is really good-looking, human beings are always more tolerant of beauties, and Xiao Zhi is not immune.
On a whim, he simply sat down and taught the person to speak, and even gave the novice mage's robe to the person to cover his buttocks.
After teaching, I discovered that this little brother's learning ability is terrible, and he has mastered the ability of basic dialogue in a short period of time.
This made Xiao Zhi, who was a teacher for the first time, feel very proud. As a reward, Xiao Zhi plucked grass from the ground and wove him a small snake as a gift.
The little brother reached out to take it, and there was no expression on his face, but he held it carefully with both hands, as if he liked it very much.
Because they met in Hessen, Xiao Zhi even named him A Sen without authorization, which sounds a bit casual, but the little brother did not express any objection.
A Sen said that he wanted to call Xiao Zhi "Little Seven". Xiao Zhi thought about it and found it more convenient than "7654321", so he readily agreed.
Later, Xiao Zhi gradually came into contact with other npcs, and found that other npcs were indeed very intelligent, not blank like Asen.
Although I don't understand why, it didn't affect the friendship between the two.
Thinking that A Sen must be very lonely alone in the forest, Xiao Zhi would often go to Hessen to look for him whenever he was free.
Bring him presents, tell stories about other places in the mainland, and occasionally tell him fairy tales of his own version.
for example:
"A Sen, today I will tell you the story of Snow White. Snow White is known as the Snow Blowing Swordsman, because she always brings snowflakes when she stabs with a sword..."
"Little Red Riding Hood is a well-known assassin. Legend has it that her bright red cloak was stained with blood..."
"There is also a master of disguise on the mainland. She is called Cinderella. She once sneaked into the ball and approached the prince. After removing her makeup, she was completely undetectable..."
Asen listened carefully, without the slightest doubt that the man in front of him was just kidding.
Thoughts retracted.
Six hundred years have passed, and I don't know what is going on with Asen now? The lifespan of NPCs of different races is not the same. Asen should be undead. I hope he is still fine now.
Xiao Zhi couldn't help sighing: "Oh, why are you wanted..."
