Chapter 62: Chang'an Sheyi
"My apprentice seems to be a European emperor."
Jia Xiaoren said with a melancholy face to his co-workers who were moving bricks with him... no, to his relatives and friends.
Friends and relatives casually said: "Isn't this a good thing? Maybe they can take you with them too?"
Jia Xiaoren sighed: "But she is a little too good..."
Friends and relatives didn’t take it seriously: “How outrageous could it be?”
"Her novice skill is [Hutian], which is similar to the spatial ability in the apocalypse. It can grow in size. It should be the only known spatial skill in the entire server..."
Relatives and friends took a breath of spiritual energy: "Hiss——"
Jia Xiaoren raised his head slightly again, performing the classic cosplay of looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. It was hard to tell whether his tone was jealous or melancholy: "She even triggered the [Spending the Rest of Your Life] adventure on the first day of the server opening..."
Friends and relatives immediately looked at each other sideways: "What the hell! I didn't even know about this when I just logged in! Why didn't you tell me about this? It turns out that the newbie who was just mentioned on the forum is your apprentice! This seems to be the third player in the entire server to trigger the adventure, right? That's really too lucky!"
Jia Xiaoren's eyes looked lifeless. He said numbly, "Not only did she have an adventure, she even got the only pet in the server... Well, it should be the only one. Anyway, I haven't heard of anyone having a pet."
The relative put the tree on the ground and scratched his head in confusion. The CPU in his brain began to work at high speed. At the same time, he checked the various functions of the game interface over and over again, and asked: "Wait a minute, does this game have a pet system? Why can't I find it? Is it a new update?"
"It's because there is no pet system that I find it outrageous,"
Jia Xiaoren became more and more excited as he spoke, his facial features almost twisted with jealousy: "I know this game has a high degree of freedom, but I didn't expect it to be so free that you can raise a pet without even a pet system! It's outrageous, it's outrageous! My apprentice is really a talent!"
The relatives and friends were silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "I now believe Wang Ergou's earliest post."
"What do you mean?"
"Maybe we really traveled through time!"
"You'd better not take cefuroxime. Take a closer look at the ID and status bar on your head. Traveling through time? What the hell are you dreaming of?"
"Oh, I was just saying that... By the way, what is your apprentice's pet?"
"The dog is said to be a white puppy that has not yet been weaned."
"Um……"
The relatives and friends thought for a moment and asked hesitantly: "Should we build a few more dog houses when we build the house?"
"?"
…
Not to mention how Jia Xiaoren and his relatives and friends were loudly jealous of Shiba Inu and Cai Cai, the place where they were moving bricks was in the [Hantan Cave] area, which was also the area with the most concentrated and active players in the entire server at that time.
In addition to many old players who have taken in apprentices and enthusiastically grind dungeons with their apprentices to gain experience and prestige, the majority of players are members of the first community in the server, Chang'an Community, headed by Wang Ergou. This means that as soon as the update was completed and the server was opened, Wang Ergou, Zhao Qing and others rushed to the sect hall and successfully applied for a community with the sect elders. Even the name "Chang'an" was voted by Wang Ergou after discussing with some active players in the group.
The sect contribution points and prestige points required for applying for a community are much less than you might think. You only need 10,000 contribution points and 100,000 prestige points to apply for registration. Basically, two or three people can meet these requirements.
There was no limit on the number of people who could form a community, but since Wang Ergou had a good reputation among old players and was even more famous among new players, as soon as the advertisement was posted on the World Channel, more than 50 people were recruited, almost half of the online players! In addition to Wang Ergou's Chang'an community, surprisingly, Lani and several other players also applied for a community called "Longshan".
It is said that this is because some game studios and investors heard that the live broadcast function was opened after the update, so they specifically found Lani, who was well-known among old players, and several other players to sign live broadcast agreements, and the remuneration was not low.
However, not all players are willing to spend their hard-earned contribution points and prestige points on applying for a community, especially after the update, when the sect merchants put on the shelves two new sets of beautiful and good-looking purple sect uniforms. Because of their unique characteristics and consistent style, everyone has called them school uniforms.
The benefits of exchanging school uniforms are visible to the naked eye. After all, the items are good and they are purple. The sooner you exchange them, the sooner you can enjoy them. However, the community currently does not know what special benefits there are, so most players are still waiting and watching, or simply add them to Wang Ergou's "Chang'an" community.
Compared with the application conditions for Sheyi, the Sheyi City Building Order is much more luxurious. It requires a full 100,000 sect contribution points. Wang Ergou had to gather more than 20 people to barely get the amount together, and Longshan simply did not consider exchanging it.
In addition, there are restrictions on the use of city-building orders. In addition to the number of people in the community being greater than thirty, there are also requirements for the location of the city - for example, it must be within the influence of the Taiyin faction, there must be no NPC settlements within a straight-line distance of ten miles around, and there must be no large hostile forces at the city's location, etc.
Fortunately, Shenyou Village is located at the innermost part of the valley, some distance away from the valley entrance. This means that the open space at the entrance of the household registration copy that Wang Ergou had his eyes on is just about 10 miles away from Shenyou Village, so he can set up a city.
Finally, this "Chang'an City" in another world landed next to the cold pond in full view of everyone.
However, in the eyes of expectant people, Chang'an City became lonely.
Because there is nothing in this "Chang'an City" at present - Luocheng means that the buildings constructed within the scope of Luocheng will be protected to a certain extent, and it does not mean that a city can appear out of thin air.
Therefore, after the city was built using the community city construction order, except for the name of Chang'an City being updated on the map, nothing new actually appeared.
As for Wang Ergou at this time... he was leading a group of veteran players, working hard to move bricks and build a city.
After Jia Xiaoren was abandoned by his new apprentice and became a lonely master, his relatives and friends pulled him in to participate in the construction of the city, because Wang Ergou announced that after Chang'an City was built, the members of the community would be ranked according to their contributions. Those with higher rankings would have priority in choosing properties, and members who were recognized to have insufficient contributions would not be eligible to obtain Chang'an City properties for free.
In the words of relatives and friends: "You already have an apprentice to raise, can't you not work hard to get a better room? Are you going to let your apprentice sleep in the sect's dormitory? Aren't you afraid that the apprentice you tricked into running away with another wild master? If you treat your apprentice badly, there will be other wild masters who treat your apprentice well! Newbies who have just entered the game do not have the ability to make independent judgments, and are most likely to be lured away by other wild masters' small favors!"
It is reported that under the instigation of Wang Ergou, the relative used the same rhetoric to PUA many old players. Among them, the one who suffered the most was Zhen Junzi, who had the best relationship with Jia Xiaoren and had agreed to use the gay friend ID in the forum.
According to internal information, the person who is recognized as the number one in the current community contribution ranking is Zhen Junzi. He even eats by going offline for only two minutes to eat meal replacement powder, and then he goes online again without stopping to move bricks, just to wait for Chang'an City to be built, so that he can choose the most imposing house to show off in front of his NPC apprentice...
Although he knew that his relatives and friends were trying to PUA him, Jia Xiaoren still picked up the tree with tears in his eyes and chose to continue working hard to move bricks.
Even if it wasn't for his apprentice, he himself wanted to own a house in the first city built by players themselves in the game!
