Po Jian walks in front to lead the players.
"How is it, brother Pojian, have we arrived? My big sword has been thirsting for blood!" It was still the first player who spoke to Pojian. He was waving a wooden sword in his hand, and his body was full of burning fighting spirit.
Although his weapon was just a wooden sword, it actually had a certain amount of attack power because it was a game, and one could even hear the sound of breaking wind when swinging it. Such a sword cost him several hundred copper coins, which was a huge expense.
Po Jian said, "It's almost there, we'll be there soon. I heard the noise at the bend ahead. The monster should have been at the second bend at the time. I don't know if it's still there after so much time."
The players who followed over heard this and chattered, "It should still be there. When a boss appears in the game, doesn't it always stay there and wait for players to fight it?"
But Pojian felt that things would not be as simple as they thought. Didn't this game give them enough surprises?
Sure enough, after turning two corners, they didn't see any monsters, let alone the shadow of one.
The crowd behind him sighed. Po Jian shrugged and asked Mo Song, "Brother Mianmian, what should we do next? Should we continue moving forward, or..." go home?
Going forward would only lead them deeper into the mine, where it was even darker and darker, with miner lamps only being lit at a distance. If they turned back, it would mean that their operation tonight had completely failed, and the copper coins they had spent would have been wasted.
Mo Song frowned and first asked the players who came here with him about their plans. When he found that the majority of people wanted to continue going inside, he told the audience in the live broadcast room that they would go forward a little further to see if there would be any new situations.
However, most people wanted to continue going in, but a small number of people planned to give up.
After these people said they would not follow the main group, they left the team and started to walk out. As they walked, they also laughed at the group of idiots in a low voice. There were clearly no monsters now, so why were they still going in? Wouldn't it be nice to go back to farming and fishing if they had this much time?
Mo Song and his group naturally had no idea that the people who had left were thinking this way about them. They walked a little further in the dark, and Po Jian stopped to tell everyone that there was a rest area ahead, where many mining lamps were installed, and there was also a special open space for people to rest.
When Po Jian said this, he turned around to face everyone, but he found that everyone's eyes looking at him suddenly became a little strange. The suddenly widened eyes, bulging eyeballs, and the obvious lack of focus on his face gave Po Jian a vague sense of foreboding.
His whole body was stiff, his shoulders were stretched into a straight line, and he stood straight, but he asked in a trembling voice, "What, what happened? What happened... Don't look at me like that, I'm a little scared."
Did that monster appear? Was it behind him? Could it be... the legendary... ghost? ?
Oh my God, does it have to be so exciting?
The player closest to him slowly came to his senses and answered his question in a low voice: "You, you don't have to get too excited. The monster seems to have appeared, but it's just a shadow. We don't know where the real body is yet. Don't look back yet, just walk towards us slowly... Hey, hey! Why is that shadow getting smaller... Damn it, it's coming, coming, coming!"
The voice, which had been relatively calm, took an abrupt turn when saying the last sentence. The tone became sharp, and it made people's hair stand on end when listening to it.
Po Jian had no idea that he had to stay calm and deal with everything. He screamed, jumped up from where he was without caring about anything, and grabbed the person closest to him.
Unfortunately, the person closest to him was Mo Song.
Mo Song felt that he was extremely unlucky. He had done nothing wrong, but someone fell from the sky and hugged him with his hands and feet. What was even worse was that his audience not only did not sympathize with his experience, but instead filled the comments with "Hahahahahaha" to show their respect.
Damn, these black fans!
At this time, Pojian was so frightened by his own imagination that he closed his eyes. He did not notice that after his scream, the scene quickly fell into an eerie silence.
He was shivering when someone slapped him on the back a few times. Then, he felt an extra weight on his left shoulder, like a round ball of wool, and heard a tiny "whimpering" sound in his ears.
"Break out of the cocoon! It's okay, you can open your eyes now." Mo Song said helplessly, "This 'monster' has appeared on its own initiative. If you don't open your eyes, you may never have the chance to see it again."
Not only Mo Song, but the players also started discussing. The voices were so chaotic that it was hard to hear what they were talking about. But Po Jian could clearly feel that these people did not seem to be afraid at all, but were more curious and excited.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but Pojian always felt that when Mo Song was talking to him just now, he seemed to be trying hard to hold back his laughter?
What exactly happened? What does the monster look like?
With such strong curiosity, Pojian carefully opened his left eye first. From the corner of his eye, he quickly saw a small dark figure on his shoulder, trying to get closer to his face. Out of curiosity, Pojian opened his other eye as well, and then tilted his head to look over.
His eyes met a pair of large, round eyes with distinct black and white.
The eyes were on a pure black "ball of yarn", which seemed to be the front of the face. There was nothing else except the eyes, but the yarn ball kept making "whimpering" sounds. Noticing the gaze from Po Jiao, the yarn ball whimpered even louder and jumped on his shoulder a few times, feeling soft to the touch.
What the hell is this! ?
Po Jian's little head was filled with big question marks. What on earth happened in the mine when he closed his eyes? Why was there such a thing on his shoulder?
After breaking free from the cocoon, Mo Song confirmed that the ball of yarn had no plans to leave for the time being and did not seem to be afraid of people. He simply moved the camera in front of the ball of yarn, allowing the audience in the live broadcast room to take a good look at this legendary "mine guard".
"Hahahaha! Please stop talking. I almost don't recognize the word 'guard'. It's so small. How did Bro Pojian think it was so big?"
"Well, it's pretty cute. No one has any objection to calling it the mascot of the mine, right?"
"I almost burst out laughing. There were hundreds of people and such a grand ceremony, but the monster that came out in the end was such a tiny thing. It's too funny! Now I believe that there are no monsters in this game!"
Not only the audience in the live broadcast room, but even the players who came over to fight monsters changed their minds in a very short time. They all felt that they had come here in vain. Not only had they been worried all the way, but the final result was also a little hard to accept.
Even though, that little monster has a cute appearance.
"What the hell is this? It's so black, if you don't know, you might think it's a coal ball that has turned into a spirit!"
"That's right. It's only this small, so how come the cocoon looks so huge?"
"Could it be because of the nearby mining lamp? The shadow cast by this little coal ball standing in front of the mining lamp has become bigger. If that's the case, Pojian, remember to check your eyes when you go back..."
As the center of public criticism, Po Jian had no time to care about these people's attitudes. At this moment, a virtual dialog box appeared in front of him that only he could see, telling him that the [Ore Spirit] in the mine wanted to recognize him as its master, and asked if he agreed.
The meaning of recognizing the master... In fact, this is not a monster, but a pet?
Po Jian glanced at the little black ball bouncing on his shoulder and decisively agreed. Are you kidding? When has there ever been a creature in "Lowly Farm" that wanted to recognize its master? This was unique among the players, and it would be strange if he refused!
The next second, the world announcement sounded.
[Congratulations to the player for "breaking out of the cocoon", being recognized by the "Ore Elf", obtaining the pet "Ore Elf", and being awarded the title "Little Cutie at Home"!]
The small black ball on his shoulder also emitted a faint light. After the light disappeared, Pojian felt that he had a weak connection with the small black ball.
Breaking the Cocoon:!!!
Players who saw the world announcement: ??? !!!
No! They came here in a large group. Why did the little black ball only recognize the cocoon? Then what are they? Are they witnesses of the Lord Recognition Conference?
At this moment, everyone except Pojian was jealous, looking at Pojian and the mineral elf on his shoulder with resentment, wishing they could snatch the latter and hold him in their arms. Who would have thought that such an inconspicuous little thing could actually become a pet!
There are actually pets in a farming game? ?
Pojian felt his head was dizzy and he felt like he was floating. He checked again and again and knew that he was not dreaming. Then he exhaled and sat down on the ground. Oh my god, he was so surprised and happy that his legs were weak!
Fortunately, his fears were rewarded, and he somehow got his first pet in the game.
After the players calmed down and got over their jealousy, they quickly returned to their normal state. They gathered around Pojian to "care" about him and asked him about the pet and the title he had been given.
Pojian knew that these older brothers and sisters had some concerns in their hearts, so he did not dare to provoke them at this time and answered the questions honestly.
The pet "Ore Elf" can increase the owner's mining success rate by 10% when following him.
The title "A Little Cutie at Home" can be obtained by any player who has a pet. It increases the character's affinity by 10% while wearing it.
Mo Song listened to it with a sour look on his face and asked the question in his mind in time: "I can understand the mining success rate, but what is 'affinity'? What is its function?"
Pojian shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. The difference between him and other people was only the distance of an extra pet. How could he know if he was asked for more details?
Thinking of this, he put on the newly-minted title.
In just a breath of time, the lost players discovered that the ore elf on Pojian's shoulder seemed to be more enthusiastic towards its master.
Oh, I see. So this is the kind of affinity that is created!
