The Truth of Magic

Chapter 17: Realistic game

Views:

Until three days later, Zhao Xu still had not recovered from what Antinoya mentioned to him.

Even the impact of time travel on him was not as profound as the impact of this incident on him.

Time travel is just an opportunity, and Arthur's complexity makes Zhao Xu almost useless.

Even if he could persuade his parents to invest all his wealth in Arthur in the early stage, when players were short of resources in the early stage, they would not be able to get anything good in exchange.

Zhao Xu has just traveled through time, so he can only think about many things in general and clarify the future direction.

That night, after reading a magic book and feeling a little sleepy, he went offline to sleep. He lay in bed alone and thought about the day's events, and then he silently realized that he had gotten lucky for the second time in a row.

Zhao Xu's two roommates both quit the game earlier than him. Zhang Qi, the dormitory director, chose a warrior. The +2 power belt in his previous life was half-sold and half-gifted to him by Zhang Qi.

Zhang Qi had not yet recovered from the shadow of the warrior training course until Zhao Xu also went offline.

Basically the lessons for Warrior players that night were the same. After a set of blows, the instructor hit him with a wooden stick, and the trained warrior students dodge.

Those non-fatal bruises left Zhang Qi confused.

Zhao Xu couldn't persuade Zhang Qi to change to a powerful profession.

In the previous life, Zhang Qi's warrior number was very careful to accumulate the remaining four resurrection stones, and they were all handed down in the battle of Falling Star Lake two months later.

That battle was the first large-scale battle that players led and participated in. It was the grandeur of this battle that set off the first wave of craze after the launch of the Arthur server.

Later, Zhang Qi changed professions, but they couldn't bring him the original touch, so Zhang Qi finally returned to being a warrior.

Basically, the people who logged off that night were complaining about Arthur's training system.

Many people go to game forums to criticize the TC family for being too arrogant and pretending to be cool and dare to play tricks on players like this.

Arthur's game rating has been lowered by negative reviews from players in recent days.

It wasn't until the third day that a wave of professional players finally began to qualify and complete the training course. Players can go outside to play, and the wave of bad reviews about quitting the game has calmed down a little.

The TC family was also surprisingly silent. They did not come out to explain anything, but began to promote another of their masterpieces.

It's as if the Arthur game is just a beautiful accident and not the center of the group's game series.

Basically, Arthur's popularity slowly ushered in its own calm period after the first night.

On the second day, Zhao Xu told his parents a white lie before the server was launched for 24 hours, asking them to register an account and log out when they logged into the character creation interface.

Naturally, Zhao Xu would not stupidly say that he had traveled back from ten years in the future. A year later, the earth would be destroyed and everyone would have to go to Arthur to beg for food.

In this case, his parents would just drive over right away and take him to a mental hospital.

Even if Zhao Xu's examination is normal, he will never play this game again in his life.

So Zhao Xu directly told him that he was optimistic about the development prospects of the game and asked his parents to spend some money to collect an account first, and the value would increase in the future.

Before logging in last night, Zhao Xu himself planned to acquire some test accounts.

But when he found that his test account directly encountered Arthur's top organization and developed a huge main plot, he gave up.

Just like many parents who are doctors do not want their children to be doctors. It’s not that the doctor is bad, it’s that he would rather the children have less income and live a normal and safe life.

After Zhao Xu's parents heard about Zhao Xu's collection, they didn't originally care about the increase in value of these accounts.

However, this was the first time that his son showed his interest in collecting, so they naturally supported it strongly. Not to mention paying 299 to register an account, paying 2999 is no problem.

For the remaining two days, Zhao Xu was immersed in Arthur's game. He basically logged in at 8 a.m. every day until 4 a.m.

In between, he would go offline two or three times to have a meal.

Players don't need to eat in Arthur's projection.

The consequences of this only broke out a year later when everyone traveled across the country.

Zhao Xu's crazy behavior of skipping classes somewhat shocked his roommates.

However, others are not your parents, so they can only advise and help cover it up.

Zhao Xu was not planning a big death, but he thought it was quite urgent in the early stages.

This may also be related to the evaluation of him by the Final Scroll organization, so Zhao Xu basically spends his time in Arthur every day except eating, and studies hard at night on the magic books provided by Antinoya.

During the day, he occasionally attended magic lectures held in the floating city, and Antinoya basically selected them for him.

It's just that Antinoya never let him come into contact with spell models or how to cast spells.

Zhao Xu also saw that Antinoya trained Arthur the same way he trained native mages.

There is no way to use the kind of cramming teaching that the current players have unified, and the spell casting ability is not systematic enough.

Most of those magic lectures were too profound for Zhao Xu.

Even if Antinoya chose some lectures on pure ideological lines for him, he would still listen to them in confusion.

However, Zhao Xu didn't dare to be serious. Several of the names of the lecturers on the stage were ones that Zhao Xu had seen in the history of magic records.

Maybe the boss giving the lecture is actually the boss of the current Final Scroll.

Zhao Xu did not deceive his two roommates about his career choice, he just said that he had teleported to Mystra.

Then he applied the content of the online mage's teachings in his previous life and roughly recounted it.

In addition to the looks from the two roommates saying "So you mages are also so hard-working", they also understood Zhao Xu's difficulty in spending most of his time playing games except for deep sleep these days.

Mostly it’s about fighting for a breath.

Faced with a game that torments players, some people simply give up.

Some people get through it and then come back to trash the game and it's not fun.

It doesn't matter what's right or wrong, it's just that everyone's choices are different.

Even Zhao Xu didn't know when he would finish reading those magic books.

He could only hold on to his patience and silently observe the goings-on in the forum.

For the melee type, as long as they are always online, there are players who have completed the training and successfully taken up the level 1 basic profession within three days.

Even the two major professions of warrior and barbarian have reached a small peak today, with players completing training in basically every town.

However, everyone who had just completed the training found that there were no novice NPCs to issue tasks to them, such as going to Aunt Wang's house at the entrance of the village to kill the weasel.

The whole Arthur seemed to regard them as if they didn't exist, or in other words, regard them as the same as the local aborigines.

Some people have begun to notice that players are not special.

Some wild national masters on the forum began to analyze, thinking that this is a move by TC to develop new game concepts, and it must imply some kind of future trend.

People like Zhao Xu, who knew the future, would definitely sneer at the big chess party.

A player who has never proven himself, has no reputation, lives in a relatively stable and protected town, and has no special channels, how can he get so many tasks for him.

After half a year, when the players' reputations have emerged, these will not be a problem.

Every time Zhao Xu eats, he refuses to waste any minute browsing the forum. There are some places in Arthur that publish newspapers.

Finally, after Zhao Xu finished eating the last of the farm-style stir-fried pork, and was about to throw the takeaway lunch box into the trash can and go online, he suddenly found that a post had been trending and it had been posted for less than 20 minutes.

Zhao Xu quickly clicked in to take a look.

The title of the post has been highlighted and bolded - "Everyone, please be careful when accepting missions. There is no novice map in this game."

"My roommates and I, all of whom are melee combat majors, took advantage of the fact that everyone had just finished their training, so we made an appointment to go fight monsters in the wild together. Who knew that we just heard the sound of fighting, so we naturally rushed to the mission that came to our door. .”

"What we encountered at that time were ten goblins, six holding maces and four holding javelins. They were besieging a caravan. Adhering to the belief that humans and monsters are incompatible, we charged directly forward."

"Who knows when the four of us who cooperate with the caravan finally kill five goblins?"

"Damn it, suddenly hundreds of goblins appeared out of nowhere, some riding wolves, and they came straight towards us all over the mountains and fields."

"Those caravans we helped were also thieves. They ran away without saying a word and didn't even bother to call us."

"The point of the problem is, if there are hundreds of monsters just around the novice village, then do they still need to level up? In the future, players will have to join hands to gather hundreds of monsters before they dare to leave the village."

Zhao Xu looked at this player's message and remained silent.

Some people under the post asked them what happened in the end. Needless to say, they just handed over the resurrection stone.

Some players in the game now think that this game has a novice village.

It’s been three days and I’m still harboring illusions.

As for the natives in the game, it is not uncommon for them to betray players directly, let alone run away before the battle, or even ignore the player's promised mission rewards.

Because there is an evil camp in this game.

Basically, the players have to suffer losses for a week before they can reach a consensus.

This is also the reason why everyone tends to accept tasks from reputable major guilds and organizations.

Or an NPC that matches the camp and is trustworthy in the profession.

However, many players left comments below saying that this game is extremely realistic.

Zhao Xu could only smile bitterly. His previous life was so realistic that his family was destroyed, so the realism must be outstanding.

However, after Zhao Xu scanned this post, he suddenly found that another post had also been pushed up - "Help, I was locked up after killing the NPC. I deleted the character and re-registered, and was immediately locked into the chaotic evil camp. What should I do if I can’t play the Druid camp I want to play?”
