A game lasts only 30 minutes, and even if you include the preparation time after entering the map, it will not exceed 35 minutes. This amount of time is neither long nor short.
However, during these 30 minutes, many players felt the length of life and their yearning for "peace".
The vegetables were stolen, the baskets were snatched, people were beaten, and all the points were lost.
Even people like Bai Li and Wen Xingyao, who only wanted to stay out of the world and grow up in a shabby way, were forced to join in the fight for vegetables. Then, their agile movements and treacherous whereabouts left a deep impression on the other dozen people.
Tang Ying was being chased until he was out of breath. He felt that this world was so fantastic. Bai Li was so powerful that he could actually keep up with Wen Xingyao's pace. The couple were so unkind that they almost snatched his vegetable basket upside down! His land was also completely stolen!
Song Xinran had already given up the idea of competing for the title of the top 50 in the village. He held his vegetable basket tightly and was careful to prevent others from approaching. While harvesting the mature crops that had not been picked up from everyone's fields, he stared at Bai Li's figure with shining eyes, and screamed in his heart, "Woo woo woo, his master is really super strong!"
After his initial arrogance, Mo Song had already tasted bitter regret. He had never thought that there were so many hidden talents among the dozen people. Not to mention his brother and his two friends, those unfamiliar girls had often relied on their agility and petite figures to steal other people's vegetable baskets, so much so that later on, he didn't even dare to put the vegetable basket on the ground.
What he didn't expect the most was that Li Bai and Yao Xing were so powerful. It seemed that the rumors in the forum last month were not false...
Jiang Huaibi and her parents can be said to be the most united among them. They were originally a family of three, and they had the goal of having at least one of them make it into the top 50 in the village in points. Jiang Huaibi became the first beneficiary. Including her parents', it is equivalent to one person owning 300 plots of land. She doesn't have to snatch other people's vegetables, as she can't even harvest them all on her own.
Huaibi's father and mother only need to sow seeds on the vacant land and help their daughter drive away other people who want to rob her.
However, there is a prerequisite for them to be so smooth, that is, their land needs to be allocated together, or at least adjacent, otherwise they will still be stretched.
As the game time passed, everyone was out of breath and slowed down their movements, reducing physical contact and turning to verbal battles.
Finally, the thirty-minute countdown ended, and the first round of the game ended. Eighteen people stopped what they were doing at the same time and looked up at the scoreboard floating in the air.
The points that players can finally get are made up of several parts. The first is the number of crops planted by players themselves and successfully matured during the game. The second is the number of crops snatched from other people or stolen from the fields by players. The third is the number of crops accidentally damaged by players during the scramble. The fourth is the performance score throughout the game.
The first two will add to the total points, while the latter will deduct corresponding points or perform corresponding additions and subtractions. This involves complex system calculations, and the final results are accepted and understood by everyone.
In the first round of the competition, Jiang Huaibi ranked first in points. Compared with her, Huaibi's mother and father ranked lower in points, but not to the bottom.
Bai Li and Wen Xingyao ranked second and third respectively, which was not much better than Jiang Huaibi who scored 275 points in one go.
The last two were Song Xinran and Mo Dubi, one with 51 points and the other with 52 points. The two guys hugged each other and shivered. During the competition, they were badly robbed QAQ!
After checking the rankings and receiving the points, the group was teleported out.
The village chief's house at one o'clock in the morning is even more lively than the night market when the players are at their busiest.
Players who have completed a round of the game are not in a hurry to proceed to the next round. They seek revenge and grievances on the spot, and also complain to others about their experiences in the game.
"Wow, my friend is too much. I worked so hard to grow kohlrabi, but she pulled them out without even saying a word. I don't want to team up with her anymore!"
"Me too. If I team up with my brothers again, I'm afraid we'll have to go from the game to reality. It's safer to team up with people I don't know. Girl, let's team up!"
"Hmm? Is the team disbanding and reorganizing? Can I be included? I have a few other people here. We just played the easy mode together. It was pretty good. I won first place and got a total of 93 points."
"Huh? The first place winner in the simple map can only get 93 points? The map I just entered is the difficult map, and the third place winner got 156 points!"
As soon as Mo Song was teleported out, he heard the players discussing the points they had earned. He found that the two people who were talking had arrived earlier than him, so he immediately joined the chat group.
"Ahaha, I just came out of Hell Mode. It's a bit difficult, but I'm ranked seventh and got 214 points. It turns out that harder maps are better."
In the "Mushroom Village", no one would not recognize Mo Song. After seeing that it was him, they looked around and indeed found Bai Li, so they looked at him with resentment. It was this bad guy who designed such a complex game that challenged people's hearts. It was really too much.
But when the players thought about the large number of redeemable items behind the points, they adjusted themselves and quickly regained their composure.
After that, they grabbed Mo Song and a few others and started a crazy discussion about how many people should form a team and which mode and map to choose in order to maximize their benefits.
The fact is that the more people there are, the more difficult the map is, and the more generous the points reward will be. According to the data from the first round, the upper limit of points for the easy mode is 100 points, the hard mode is 200 points, and the hell mode is 300 points, but this is just speculation by the players and cannot be guaranteed.
In contrast to the generous rewards given to the top-ranked players, the players at the bottom of the ranking actually received slightly more points rewards for choosing simple maps.
If you are confident in your physical strength and combat ability, it is okay to choose hell mode for all ten chances a day. However, if you want to take advantage of the game and get more points within your ability, you should think carefully.
Fortunately, there is enough time to consider. After three chances, if you want to enter the game map again, you have to complete the task first.
Bai Li and Wen Xingyao planned to do the first three times first, but Jiang Huaibi was urged to log off by her parents with the reason that "you have experienced it already, and you promised us a trial play once before. After it is over, log off and go to sleep, and continue after you wake up." So she had to say goodbye reluctantly.
After Jiang Huaibi's family of three left, Xiong Pili and his two friends also said with embarrassment that other friends they knew had also invited them, but they could not refuse and decided to join in a round. After sending off three more people, there were only 12 people left out of 18. Bai Li thought about it and suggested that their team simply disband on the spot. Although Mo Song and his friends felt it was a pity, they also agreed to this decision. After that, everyone scattered and spontaneously embarked on the road of forming a wild team.
Bai Li, Wen Xingyao, Tang Ying and Song Xinran did not separate. They formed a full team of 25 players and entered the Hell map twice, clearing all the free opportunities as quickly as possible.
Although the rankings were high and low twice, and the points obtained were not the highest among all players, because I was playing with players I didn't know, I could let go and grab other people's food without any mercy. The gaming experience was much better than the first time.
Before going to bed, Bai Li complained silently. He clearly wanted the players to have fun with their friends this time, so why did everyone embark on the path of "cooperation" with strangers again?
Also, did he forget something? Oh, now I remember, those props specially designed for this event, someone should have discovered them by now, right?
Si Yue and Ke Ke are undoubtedly the luckier ones among the new players. In reality, they are very good friends, and after entering the game, they were assigned to the same novice village.
Playing a game with two people you know is more fun than playing it alone.
During these ten days, they completed the novice tasks together, built houses together, learned the same life skills, and got together every day to study various ways of playing the game.
They also agreed to participate in this event together.
In the first three free opportunities, they experienced the simple, difficult and hell modes respectively. Because it was a step-by-step experience, they rarely fell out during the game. Instead, they united together to resist the guerrilla warfare and harassment of the same team players and achieved good results.
If you want to play again later, you have to complete the mission first.
After completing the task entrusted by the village chief, Si Yue took the slippery green liquid in a small jar from the old village chief, and obvious doubts appeared in her eyes.
What is this? What is it for? Besides game times, there are also props rewards for completing tasks?
As if he saw Si Yue's confusion, the old village chief smiled and explained, "This is a special prop for this event. You can use it in the competition. If you use it at the right time, it might have a miraculous effect."
According to the old village chief's reminder, Si Yue checked the description of this prop. It turned out that this thing is called "slippery slime", which can be poured on the crops that are about to grow. After it takes effect, no one except the owner of the crops can touch them. Even if you put your hand on it, it will slide to other places because of the effect of the prop.
What a good thing! Si Yue's eyes lit up. With this prop, she no longer had to worry about the expensive goods she grew being stolen!
It’s a pity that props have a limited number of uses. For example, this “slippery slime” can only be used five times. In other words, she can only ensure that five high-value crops are not stolen.
This is really too difficult for her. After experiencing the magical effect of this prop, how can she protect the crops without the prop's bonus with a normal mind?
She can plant at least 500 crops in one round of competition. Five uses will not affect the final result of the competition, right?
"Yueyue, what's wrong with you? Have you completed the mission? Stop being dazed and let's move on to the next mission." Keke took the mission from Lady Flower. He did not receive any extra rewards after completing it, so he did not know what happened to Siyue.
Si Yue was awakened by her voice. She grabbed Keke's hand and dragged her to the corner. After observing that there was no one else around, she showed Keke the can of "slippery slime" that she had obtained.
Ke Ke was also very surprised after reading it, but after the surprise, she fell into the same distress as Si Yue.
"Alas, it's a pity that this item can't be used many times. If it could be used throughout the game, we wouldn't have to worry about not getting more points. Maybe we can even try the 25-player hell mode!"
"That's right, it's really too little. Even if I could get an item in each of the seven missions, it would still be a drop in the bucket..." Si Yue muttered in a depressed voice.
Ke Ke lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking, and did not immediately respond to Si Yue's words. Suddenly, she jumped up from where she was, and was so excited that she lost the ability to control her expression.
In a low but trembling voice, he said, "Yueyue, check the game store. Li Li has secretly put a new game prop on the shelves. It's called the 'Limited Time Event Gift Pack'. It only costs 30 star coins each. It is said that 30 different event props can be opened. Do you think... will the 'Slippery Slime' be among them?"
"Oh my god! It's true!" Si Yue also went to the game store and found the abrupt existence. Upon hearing this, she expressed her affirmation without thinking, "I guess there is. Wait for me, I'll buy one and try it out!"
Then he selected and paid, all in one go.
The gift package was opened directly in the backpack, and in the blink of an eye a lot of new props appeared.
White potions, red potions, invincibility, invisibility cloaks... and the "slippery slime" they discussed before, all of them are in there!
Si Yue almost couldn't hold back her screams, and she jumped a few times on the spot while holding Ke Ke's hand.
"Buy! Buy them for me now. With these things, are we still worried that we won't be able to make it into the top 50 in the village? Let's have another round of competition before others react!"
This time we must gather 25 people and then choose Hell Mode!
She had not thought about completing the remaining six tasks before participating in the competition. Players have already started doing the tasks, and someone will surely get extra task rewards by then, and then, like Keke, take a look at the game store and discover the existence of the "limited-time event gift package."
Nowadays, time is money and time is points. They cannot afford to lose the big picture because of a small mistake. Because of their momentary greed, they miss the best time to get high points.
Si Yue held Ke Ke's hand and hurried towards the village chief, explaining the reason to her on the way.
Keke found it hard to disagree with his friend and said, "Yueyue, you are right. If we complete all the tasks first, many players will have discovered the existence of the props. Then we will lose the advantage. If everyone can use the props during the game, it will be a real free-for-all..."
"It just so happens that I don't have much pocket money, and I can't buy many gift packs. I'll just buy three first, and use the props to play one or two games. After that, I'll see whether to continue or just stay put."
The two are young and have limited pocket money. They usually spend money very little in the game. They don't buy unnecessary items unless necessary, and they aspire to be a light spender. However, this is also the premise that there are no activities in the game. After the activities started, they found that they could get ahead of other players by spending a little money, so they were tempted.
Following Keke's words, Si Yue also bought two limited-time gift packs, and soon there were a total of 90 small props in her backpack.
At the same time, in order to maximize the use of props, the two decided to form separate teams and not compete for the first and second place in the same team. With the cheat code turned on, they will definitely take first place!
The two came to the village chief, and soon they each formed a team of 25 people and entered the hell mode map.
What Si Yue didn't notice was that one of the players in her team was the one she lost to in the last game. In the last game, she won first place, Ke Ke won third place, and this unfamiliar player was sandwiched between the two and came in second place.
Bai Qingning had already discovered Si Yue's presence. He gritted his teeth and looked at that "hateful" smiling face, with a flame of anger flashing in his eyes. In the last round, he was only 5 points away from first place. This was undoubtedly a highlight moment for him who could only get the bottom score in the first and second rounds.
He still remembers that in the last 30 seconds of the countdown, Si Yue quickly pulled out the radishes from his field while she wasn't paying attention. If it weren't for those 30 seconds, he would definitely be the first.
He had not planned to recall this incident, but he did not expect that they would be together again this time. Humph, this time he would definitely not let this girl go so easily, steal everything, rob everything, and not leave a single vegetable for her! And from the look of her, it seemed that she had no impression of him at all, which made Bai Qingning more relieved, and he would beat her up unexpectedly later!
It just so happened that their plots were next to each other in this round of competition, which made it easier for him to perform tricks.
However, things did not develop as Bai Qingning had expected.
When he was silently calculating the time and ready to grab Si Yue's cauliflowers that were about to mature in 20 seconds, he saw Si Yue take out a bottle of white water and sprinkle it on the 9 cauliflowers. The next second, the cauliflowers were ripe, and she picked them quickly. In a few seconds, the cauliflowers were picked and put into the basket.
Bai Qingning:?
What is that white water?
When all the players were busy scrambling for the vegetables, and thinking that the vegetables they had planted would soon mature, they caught a glimpse of Si Yue breaking away from the crowd. After carefully observing the surroundings, he took out a bottle of red potion and poured it on the vegetables in his field without blinking.
Bai Qingning:!
Ahhhhh, could this color be poison? What a vicious woman!
I rushed over to try to remedy the situation, but found that the vegetables, which had originally shown signs of maturity, had reverted to the seedling state and nothing had happened.
Bai Qingning:? ?
When Si Yue finally realized that Bai Qingning was targeting her, she smiled slightly as she faced Bai Qingning's ferocious expression as he rushed towards her, and took out a huge piece of cloth from her backpack and covered herself with it. The next second, Si Yue disappeared from the spot.
Bai Qingning: ???
Where is she? Where is she! She is so big! Why does she have so many weird things?
Bai Qingning couldn't find Si Yue anywhere. He weighed the light basket of vegetables in his hand, and then looked at his land which had been stolen so much because of his departure. He almost cried out "wow".
He gave up. He didn't want to go against that girl anymore! Going against her would never have any good results. He would probably be at the bottom again this time QAQ!
Bai Qingning, who had given up struggling and fallen into a state of inaction, suddenly felt relaxed. He began to try his best to make up for it with the experience of the previous three competitions, and quietly paid attention to Si Yue's every move.
Then he saw that in the next 15 minutes, after using the white potion, the red potion, and the invisibility cloak, Si Yue successively used the spray that could increase her speed, the golden light prop that prevented other people from approaching the vegetable basket, the potion that allowed the plants to grow legs and run to find her, and even in the last few critical seconds, when facing the player who wanted to snatch her Brussels sprouts, she suddenly threw out a ball of green mucus, causing the player's hand, which was about to touch the leaf, to poke his finger into the soil next to him.
Bai Qingning: "..."
Other players: “………………”
While waiting for the system to announce the results, one player couldn't help but ask Si Yue with a flattering smile: "Hey... sister, what are those things you use? Where did you get them from? They look pretty useful..."
Si Yue was still in the joy of grabbing so many dishes. After hearing this, she thought about it and decided to share the information she got with others. After all, even if she didn't say it now, the players would definitely know the cause and effect from other people after they went out.
"Those are the special items for this event. You have a chance to get them when completing tasks. You can also buy them directly from the game store. 30 star coins can randomly open 30 different items."
“What!? There’s actually such a good thing. I have to go check it out… Wow, it really exists!” The 24 players immediately started to make a noise and didn’t even care about the result of the game. Anyway, the first place will definitely be the girl who took out a lot of “weapons”.
Sure enough, when the system results came out, Si Yue got the full score of 300 points in Hell Mode.
After being teleported out of the game copy, the players in Si Yue's team found that it was more lively outside than before they entered the copy, and everyone was talking about discovering special props for the event.
"What's going on! Li Li didn't even mention such an important thing in the announcement? What kind of treasures are these props? With them, I can definitely get more points! And I only found out about their existence after the three rounds of competition... I'm crying."
"I'll buy it first as a token of my respect!"
Si Yue found her good friend Ke Ke in the crowd, who made a "1" gesture to her. The two smiled at each other across the crowd.
The props are so useful!
