As I have said before, after the world turns into a death game, there will be irreplaceable conflicts between closed beta players and ordinary players.
The closed beta players will definitely do their best to use their knowledge to stay one step ahead of all players and occupy advantageous resources.
Most players can only pick up leftovers behind closed beta players, and even rare items such as treasure chests, tasks, and props will be snatched away, leaving them feeling resentful.
Under such circumstances, ordinary players will definitely not tolerate the wanton behavior of closed beta players.
They may even think that taking away our chance to become stronger is equivalent to taking away our chance of survival, or that the previous players who died must be because the closed beta players took away their chance to become stronger. .
As a result, the closed beta test players, which are limited to a thousand people, will definitely be hostile and even hated by all players, and eventually become street rats.
This is the second incident that has become a cruel reality in this world after the gamification of death.
Because of this, Kirito would say that Luo Zhen was in quite a dangerous situation.
"You were so famous during the closed beta period that others would recognize you as soon as they saw Cai Die, at least the closed beta players. Even ordinary players may know your existence."
Kirito looked at Luo Zhen and spoke word by word.
"In this case, the news that you are a closed beta player cannot be hidden."
The remaining closed beta players may have changed their character names because their appearance has changed back to the real world, so no one will recognize them even if they appear in the main street swaggeringly.
But Luo Zhen is different. Even though his appearance has changed, both the character name and the existence of Nai Die tell others that he is the only player who got a familiar during the closed beta period.
Such Luo Zhen will definitely be recognized by ordinary players, and they will even accuse, provoke and even maliciously frame him.
"Just look at the reactions of the beta testers who just appeared in the village. Unless you give up Nai Die, you will definitely be recognized."
Kirito was worried about this and said this.
"Even so, do you still want to head to the main district?"
You can imagine how dangerous this is.
It was because of this that Kirito was worried about this before.
but…
"Didn't I say it?" Luo Zhen's tone was still relaxed and he said: "The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it."
"But..." Kirito wanted to say something else.
"But what? Can I still give up Nai Die? Or should I never enter the main district for the rest of my life?" Luo Zhen interrupted Kirito and said: "Since it is already destined to happen, there is no need to worry about it. Yes, if you really want to trouble me, you must at least weigh the weight first."
Hearing this, Kirito said nothing more, only his face was filled with gloom.
Obviously, this game fanatic still cannot agree with Luo Zhen's statement.
"Okay, you don't have to worry." Luo Zhen could only say helplessly: "I am not going to the starting town, but I will go to other villages or towns to find NPCs to entrust me. There is no need to worry about being in the circle." No matter what happens, let alone outside the circle, with Cai Die here, even if a player approaches me maliciously, I will be able to detect it in advance and escape smoothly."
Luo Zhen patted Kirito on the shoulder.
"I'm more worried about you than this, Kirito."
For Luo Zhen, adventure is nothing.
Compared with the difficulties of human incineration and genocide, being targeted by a group of ordinary players in a game. If Luo Zhen falls into this, then don’t save any humans and just go back. Take a shower and go to sleep.
Even in this world, Luo Zhen is not the most anticipated Master in Chaldea, nor is he a child prodigy in his family. What's more, he can't even use magic. But even in terms of game skills, Luo Zhen thinks he is Will not lose to anyone.
Kirito, on the other hand, was just an ordinary boy before that. Although he had good game skills and a good understanding of the Internet, so he started writing computer programs at this age, but in terms of mentality, he was an out-and-out person. Just ordinary people.
It just so happened that this ordinary person was Luo Zhen's sworn brother who had been with him for more than ten years.
This reminded Luo Zhen of his two remaining sworn brothers.
Akabane Tianquan.
Akabane Raijin.
The former is a genius comparable to Luo Zhen.
The latter is a stubborn and rebellious problem child.
Both of these people have problems that give Luo Zhen a headache.
In comparison, Kirito is really ordinary, but even more worrying.
"If it weren't for your really good gaming skills, I would never want to see you leave the starting town alone and embark on the path of a solo player."
Luo Zhen said so.
"... It's useless to talk about it now." Kirito's face was still full of gloom, and he whispered: "I have already abandoned the friends I used to level up with, and there is no way I can look back."
"...Really?" Luo Zhen was silent for a while, then nodded and said: "Since this is your choice, you have to go on, otherwise, you will not be able to return to the real world."
These words caused a flash of loneliness and pain in Kirito's eyes for a moment.
Then, Kirito said this.
"Qinghe." Kirito called Luo Zhen by his name in the real world, and said as if talking to himself: "Tell me, how are dad, mom and Xiaozhi doing now?"
Kirito is finally willing to consider problems in the real world.
After coming out of the Town of Beginnings, this young man didn't mention the problems of the real world at all. He just kept burying his head and rushing forward, avoiding these thoughts and forcing himself to face reality.
But now, in front of his only brother, Kirito is finally willing to face this cruel problem.
pity…
"How do I know?" Luo Zhen sighed and said: "Although my mother looks so carefree and doesn't mind us being obsessed with games and the Internet, once she knows that we are imprisoned here because of games, she will definitely I will be sad, but my father’s words are still very reliable and he will definitely come back as soon as possible. Even if he is in pain, he will support the family.”
"As for Suguha..." Luo Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "She should hate the game even more, hate us, and think we deserve it, right?"
At this point, not only Luo Zhen, but also Kirito laughed bitterly.
"Then we have to go back to the real world and get scolded by them."
Kirito said these words with a smile that was uglier than crying.
"ah."
Luo Zhen nodded.
Under such circumstances, the two brothers decided to part ways for the first time.
"Don't die! Kirito!"
"You are the one! Luo Zhen!"
The two of them said such words to each other, and then, as if they wanted to cut off their confusion, they turned their backs to each other and ran in the direction they wanted to go without looking back.
"Goooo!"
Only then did the rainbow butterfly make a sound, flapping its wings with phosphorescence, and caught up with the running Luo Zhen.
Luo Zhen raised his head and stared at the bottom of the second floor above.
"Wait, then…"
With these words behind him, Luo Zhen increased his speed again and ran forward.
