"What type of stand-alone game did you complete?" asked Mu Shang.
"It should be something related to science and technology." Chen Xu said, and then asked, "Does it mean that I have to complete the single-player game before I can enter here?"
Mu Shang was surprised, "You don't even know this? This is common sense."
"Well, I really didn't notice it." Chen Xu was slightly startled and thought it would be better not to ask too many questions to avoid appearing timid.
Mu Shang seemed to have thought of something and patiently explained, "Generally speaking, when you play your first stand-alone game, you will get a talent after completing it, which determines your future development direction. Of course, if you are not satisfied with this talent, you can delete the character, buy a new equipment, and create a new account. This is how rich people play."
Chen Xu nodded when he heard this. From his last sentence, it can be inferred that virtual dream equipment is not cheap.
Mushang continued, "It is said that if you play the single-player game more often, you may get a second talent. However, the chance is very low and it takes a lot of time. It is better to enter the 'battlefield' as soon as possible, earn more diamonds, and buy a new talent."
Chen Xu thought about the second talent he had obtained. In this way, he was quite lucky. He had only played a few dream games and obtained two talents.
And what was a diamond? He kept this question to himself, so as not to expose his lack of common sense.
Mu Shang said, "The gift I got is the innate divine power. What is your gift?"
Chen Xu said, "The throw is accurate."
Mu Shang was quite happy, "Not bad, I can fight in close combat and you are a long-range fighter, it's just right for me."
The two walked outside while chatting. There were many buildings around the huge square, and people were coming in and out.
Chen Xu looked around and asked, "Are we going to the battlefield now?"
"Yes, we are novices and can only go to the novice battlefield. Now, let's go through that door." Mu Shang pointed to a huge white building with a door underneath. There was a long line in front of the door.
"According to the strategy guide, we'd better choose a fantasy battlefield. Rich people love to play fantasy games, and the price of skill books and diamonds is several times higher than that of technology games."
Chen Xu thought about it and it made sense. The games he had played before were probably all technology-related, which were actually quite boring. Climbing the technology tree bit by bit was probably not something many people would find interesting.
The two walked to the end of the line and lined up.
Although the line was long, fortunately those in front entered the game quickly, and after ten minutes or so, it was their turn.
After entering the door, the two entered another space where no one else could be seen except the two of them.
"Please select the battlefield you want to enter."
A loud voice rang out.
Mu Shang said loudly, "A fantasy battlefield."
"Matching in progress. Matching successful. It is detected that this is your first time entering the battlefield. This game is free. You are about to enter the game. Three, two, one."
When Chen Xu heard this reminder, a white light flashed in front of his eyes.
Suddenly, another prompt popped up in front of him, "Do you want to go to the mall to buy props?"
He clicked no. It was his first time entering the game, so he should focus on getting familiar with it and not spend money recklessly.
Until now, he still didn't know what the game mechanics were like, what the punishment was for death, whether he could be resurrected, etc. He was completely in the dark.
Mu Shang didn't tell him the details, so he didn't dare to ask.
After a moment, his vision returned and he could see his surroundings clearly. There was a mountain in front of him and he was in a valley covered with gray-green weeds that were higher than his ankles and felt soft to step on.
The sky is clear and blue.
The breeze and the scent of green grass made him feel as if he was back home, and he had a refreshing feeling.
He turned around and looked around, but did not see Mu Shang.
He couldn't help but sigh. Finally, his personal interface was opened. He saw that Mu Shang's avatar was lit in the friend column, which should mean that he was still alive in the game.
Then, he saw the playmate column. The three avatars were also lit, with the word "Details" next to them. When he clicked on it, his eyes lit up.
It says that within one hour of the start of the game, you can spend ten game coins to bring in one of your playmates.
He chose to take Yang Jinxia with him without hesitation.
As for Luo Xiyun and Bai Jinxuan, he didn't invite them, not because he was partial. This place was called a "battlefield", and the content must be fighting and killing, and the two of them were not suitable for such an occasion.
Yang Jinxia is different. No matter what kind of game it is, she can play it well.
After submitting the application, he began to check his body, starting with his own. He found that he had nothing but the clothes he was wearing. The valley was full of weeds, some unnamed wild flowers, and a few trees.
He picked up a dry branch, one end of which was big and the other end was small. The big end was as thick as his arm. After breaking it, it became a stick about one meter long, which he used for self-defense.
After doing all this, suddenly, he felt something in his heart. He looked back and saw a blue-gray wolf walking out from the entrance to the valley.
He recognized it as a wolf, not a dog, at first glance, because its ferocity sent a chill down his spine.
He pointed the stick in his hand at it. It stood at the entrance of the valley, stared at him for a while, shook its fur restlessly, and slowly walked towards him.
Chen Xu held a sharp-cornered stone in his other hand, which he had specially picked out. He trusted his accuracy more than the stick in his hand.
After all, what he got was unlimited hand-to-hand combat skills, not stick techniques.
At this moment, a flash of light appeared, and Yang Jinxia's figure appeared in the valley.
The blue-gray wolf's attention was immediately drawn to it, and it looked towards the light.
whoosh.
Just as it turned its head, the stone in Chen Xu's hand had already smashed over and hit its neck.
“Ouch…”
It cried out in pain, fell down, but immediately stood up again, tucked its tail between its legs, and ran out of the valley.
"Wolf?"
Yang Jinxia said curiously when she saw its figure running away.
"Yes, a wolf." Chen Xu patted the dust off his hands and walked to her side.
Yang Jinxia looked around for a while and asked, "What is this place?"
"Actually, I don't know either." Chen Xu shook his head.
Yang Jinxia smiled and said, "Another emergency?"
"This incident must be beyond your imagination. I think I have encountered aliens."
"Chen Xu."
At this time, an excited voice sounded, and Mu Shang appeared at the entrance of the valley. "Finally found you... Huh?"
Yang Jinxia looked at Chen Xu. Although she didn't say it out loud, he could understand the meaning in her eyes. "Is this an alien?"
He nodded imperceptibly.
