"Congratulations to player [Rebellious Against Heaven] for clearing the hidden dungeon [Burial Land]! Reward: 5000 gold coins, and a 10% increase in exploration progress in the starting village!"
"Reward player: [Defying Heaven] Seven-Colored Supreme Treasure Chest *1!"
"Player [Defying Heaven] is rewarded with 300,000 experience points!"
"The exploration progress of the beginner village has reached 100%, and the beginner period has ended ahead of schedule!"
"Infinite Hunting Ground will be updated in 10 minutes!"
"All players, please prepare to log off in advance!"
A series of game announcements are playing on a loop!
Wang Xiaoyi didn't care about any version update at all; his attention was completely focused on the newly acquired [Seven-Colored Supreme Treasure Chest].
"I finally got the Seven-Colored Supreme Treasure Chest again!"
"I wonder what kind of equipment I'll get this time!"
Unfortunately, the [Chosen One] ability won't be available for another hour, so Wang Xiaoyi can only dream about it for now.
"Who dares to bully my skeleton race!"
A roar echoed through the mountains and forests, and then a 5-meter-long bone hand appeared out of thin air in front of Wang Xiaoyi, giving him no time to react.
Instant kill!
【-】
【-】
Huge damage figures appeared on Wang Xiaoyi and Huanhuan's heads.
With just one move, Wang Xiaoyi gained a free return-to-base service!
Fortunately, it's still the newbie protection period, and Wang Xiaoyi hasn't received the death penalty yet.
Wang Xiaoyi was reborn from the Yellow Turban Rebellion's resurrection point, and he couldn't help but feel lingering fear.
Since acquiring the system, Wang Xiaoyi has had a smooth and successful time in "Infinite Hunting Ground" and has never been defeated!
This instant kill served as a reminder to Wang Xiaoyi that there is always someone better, and one should always be humble and unassuming.
"Looks like I've gotten a bit cocky lately!"
"But one day, I will take my revenge!"
There are 8 minutes left before the game is forcibly logged out.
Not knowing how long this update would take, Wang Xiaoyi called Wang Ergou to his side.
Wang Xiaoyi conveyed to Wang Ergou the spirit of the matter that he should adhere to the principle of "if you can be cowardly, be cowardly, and never do anything", continue to develop stealthily, and wait until he returned to discuss everything.
After two days of crafting farm tools, Huangjin Village now has enough tools for its needs.
Wang Xiaoyi went to the blacksmith's table again and told Wang Dachui to stop making farm tools and start making defensive equipment, especially ensuring that there was a sufficient quantity of ordinary arrows.
After completing these two tasks, eight minutes passed, and Wang Xiaoyi logged off the game and returned to reality.
Five days have passed since the open beta launch of "Infinite Hunting Ground".
According to the Blue Star Calendar, July 18, 1993, Wednesday, 10 PM.
Wang Xiaoyi first went on a food delivery spree, thinking that after a long day, he couldn't let himself and Huanhuan suffer.
After ordering takeout, Wang Xiaoyi checked his wealth points on the official website of "Infinite Hunting Ground".
Current wealth: 23 gold coins, 45 silver coins, which is equivalent to more than 4.73 million yuan.
Being instantly killed in the game made Wang Xiaoyi more cautious, especially since he is someone who lacks a sense of security.
Wang Xiaoyi felt it was time for him to move to a new place.
Wang Xiaoyi understood the principle that "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."
Whether it's the cheat code or the Dragon Blood Secret Realm, these are secrets that Wang Xiaoyi cannot reveal to others. Therefore, having a more private residence must be put on the agenda.
In case someone enters Wang Xiaoyi's room, Wang Xiaoyi might happen to come out of the Dragon Blood Secret Realm.
"Hey, a magic trick that turns people into real people! Let's catch them and use them as lab rats for research."
As for whether Wang Xiaoyi will be in sheet form or block form after the research is completed, that's not something Wang Xiaoyi can decide for himself.
Let's get right to it.
Wang Xiaoyi logged into the app to find suitable properties.
"It doesn't need to be too close to the city center; a more secluded location is more advantageous for me!"
"This villa is nice, it even has a basement!"
"Holy crap! This villa costs over 8 million!"
"I'm sorry to bother you, I'm not worthy!"
...
Half an hour later, Wang Xiaoyi's takeout meal arrived.
While eating his takeout, Wang Xiaoyi browsed the game forum for "Infinite Hunting Ground".
In the most prominent position on the forum is the official update announcement from the game's developers.
Update time: [July 18, 22:00:00 - July 20, 14:00:00]
Update content:
Enhanced Realism: [Realism increased to 20%, for a more authentic gaming experience!]
Map additions: [Added maps for main cities, camps, and villages]
Time Mechanism: [Game time is synchronized with real time. More dangerous creatures will appear at night, and hunting them will yield richer rewards.]
Death Penalty: [Upon death in the game, the player's level drops by 1, 10%~20% of their items are randomly lost, and 50% of their wealth is permanently lost.]
PK Mechanism: [New player village protection has been removed; players can now attack each other. There are no penalties for being marked as a "red name" (indicating a negative online reputation).]
...
"Is this game updating so much every time?"
"This looks interesting!"
Wang Xiaoyi stared at the [Death Penalty] and fell into deep thought.
"Looks like I need to change my strategy!"
As the saying goes, "Murderers and arsonists wear golden belts!"
Before the version update, Wang Xiaoyi had no choice but to focus on infrastructure development!
But times are about to change, and Wang Xiaoyi's era is about to begin!
"Killing a boss is nowhere as satisfying as killing other players! Hehehe!"
