I chatted with my friends in the cold drink bar for more than three hours, and when it was close to noon, the four of us broke up. Roland rode his bicycle under the scorching midday sun when he returned home. The first thing he did when he got rid of the bicycle was to turn on the air conditioner, adjust the temperature to the lowest setting, and blow hard on himself.
After his body cooled down, Roland turned on his computer and logged into the forum again, and then found that his personal mailbox was filled with text messages. Looking at the red unread reminder, Roland looked confused.
He took a deep breath and looked carefully, and found that most of them were system prompts indicating that he had been rewarded. At first, he thought it was a system error. He clicked on a few and looked at them, and found that he had indeed been rewarded, not There is a problem with the system, which can cost as little as one forum coin and as many as twenty or thirty forum coins.
In Penguin's forum, forum coins are equivalent to real money. One forum coin is equivalent to about one yuan.
All the rewards point to one source, Roland's post not long ago, "Roland's Experience in Casting the Small Fireball Spell". He reopened the 'Spellcaster Exchange' section and saw at first glance that his post had been highlighted and pinned to the top by the moderator, with the four bright red characters 'Essential Recommendation'.
He opened the post again and found that it was filled with compliments.
"I don't want to support you, so I just obey the original poster, 66666. I will reward you with 2 forum coins to show your appreciation."
"I'm going to use mathematical models to analyze the magic, and it explodes. The last self-destruction magic node has been recorded, and I'm just waiting to test it in the game again at night. I'll reward you with 5 forum coins to show your appreciation."
"The small fireball technique turns into a self-exploding bomb. It looks like a plastic bomb. We have a successor to the big bomb. It's just that I don't have much money, so I can do whatever I want. I'll reward you with 2 forum coins to show your appreciation."
Compliments like this account for the vast majority, and the rewards range from 1 to 20 forum coins. Of course, there are many people who don't reward, just to watch the fun.
In addition, some warlock players came in and wanted to distort the theme. Unfortunately, their vitriolic remarks did not attract anyone's attention at all, and they were soon drowned in many words of praise.
Roland returned to his forum account center, took a look, and then rubbed his forehead helplessly... More than 50,000 forum coins, and the number is still growing. He can exchange these forum coins into RMB, excluding the handling fee, and he can get it. About fifty thousand yuan.
It took him a year of work to save this little money, and he also used it to buy a game cabin. Unexpectedly, he would earn back the money from the game cabin by just playing a game and posting his experience.
In other words, at least thousands of people tipped him on the forum. People who can afford a game cabin are generally not poor. After all, a virtual game cabin worth 50,000 yuan is not cheap.
Roland was naturally happy to be able to make money, but this unintentional and unexpected feeling made him feel mixed. He was not a professional gamer and had never thought about making money through games.
After converting the forum currency into RMB, the money arrived in his account quickly. Looking at the notification on his phone that he had earned more than 50,000 yuan more, Roland chuckled, then went downstairs to have lunch, ride a bicycle, and go outside for a while. After returning from the circle, my mood has calmed down, and the excitement of getting an extra income has disappeared without a trace.
Then he started playing other games, but after experiencing the virtual real world, he no longer had any interest in ordinary games. Playing any game is like chewing wax. Even the games that I loved before, I don’t feel anything when I play them.
He hadn't tried it for a long time and found the time so difficult.
Finally, around 21:45 in the evening, he put on his pajamas, climbed into the virtual game cabin, and watched as the hatch closed automatically. A green but not dazzling light shone on his eyes. He closed his eyes, and soon Just fell asleep.
When he became sober again, he found that he was back in the game. The world was still black and white, and Falcon was beside him, still keeping up.
Roland couldn't move either. He waited quietly. Not long after, the world turned back to color. Falcon stood up. He didn't know that Roland had actually left this world.
He hunched over and slowly turned around, and said to Roland: "Learning spells and being proficient in spells is not something that can be accomplished overnight. I suggest you find a job in the town first, save some money, and wait until you become proficient in spells. I think I have almost saved enough money, and it will be easier to do anything with money.”
Roland felt that this was true, but after thinking for a while, he shook his head helplessly: "I don't speak your language yet, so it won't be convenient for me to find a job."
"I can help you introduce one." Falcon said with a smile: "There is a mine in the back mountain of the town. All you need to do is dig the ore out. No communication is required. Food is included. The food is good and the wages are good. Not low."
Mining... In other games, this is indeed a way to make a fortune. But in this game it's hard to say. But other than that, he had no other means of making a living. Roland thought for a while, and finally nodded and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, but I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up. After all, mining is a laborious job."
"The physical fitness of professionals is much stronger than that of ordinary people." Falcon said with a smile: "Even the physical fitness of spell casters is much stronger than that of ordinary men. When I was young, I could knock down five or six big men with my bare hands."
Roland didn't believe it, but he could indeed feel that in the game, his strength was obviously much greater than in reality, and he was obviously just a spell caster.
Falcon led Roland towards the town, passing by the lakeside path. Many people greeted Falcon along the way, and he responded to them all very politely. Roland could tell that Falcon was quite a man in this place. popular.
About ten minutes later, Falcon led Roland to the foot of a mountain on the west side of the lake. A cave was opened here. The cave was filled with green stones, and further outside, there was a large room. The stone house should be a warehouse. There was a middle-aged man with dark skin sitting at the door, lying on the table and taking a nap with nothing to do.
Falcon walked over and knocked on the old wooden table.
The middle-aged man woke up immediately. When he saw Falcon, he stood up and said with a flattering smile: "Hey, Mr. Falcon, why are you here?"
"Galen, I will bring someone to help you." Falcon patted Roland on the back: "Although he is a newbie, I believe he will not let you down."
The middle-aged man named Galen looked at Roland for a while, with a look of embarrassment on his wrinkled black face: "Old man, your nephew is born with thin skin and tender flesh. He doesn't seem to be made for rough work."
Farhui snorted and mocked: "Do you think he will stay here for a long time? And you don't even know who he is. You haven't paid attention to the affairs in the town recently."
Hongtu Town is not a big place, so if something happens, it will soon spread throughout the town. And Galen didn't know about Roland, which was really not the case.
The middle-aged man shook his head: "I just came back from Yuanmu Town next door early in the morning. I fell asleep sitting down because I was so tired. I heard that something happened in the town, but the specific situation is not very clear."
