Chapter 63
The key that suddenly appeared in the backpack was obviously used to open this door.
Jiang Yunu took out the key inlaid with four-colored gems from her backpack. She quickly walked forward to the door, found the keyhole on the ancient stone door, then aligned the key and inserted it into the hole.
“Boom—”
The stone door opened with a dull sound, causing the ground beneath his feet to shake slightly.
Jiang Yunu pushed the door open with one hand, and held her spatula tightly with the other, in case the game system suddenly went crazy and gave her a "door-opening kill" at this moment.
But this time she was worrying too much.
The stone gate in front of me opened slowly and heavily, like opening a random door, leading to a space completely different from the rocky valley.
Behind the door you can see a large area of green grass. The flat green land stretches all the way into the distance, and in the distance you can see the shadows of rolling mountains.
Jiang Yunu still didn't dare to let her guard down. She grabbed her close-range weapon and stepped through the open door with a very cautious attitude.
"You have enabled the online interaction function."
The system's prompt voice suddenly popped up, and the tone sounded in Jiang Yunu's ears in a calm and straightforward manner.
Jiang Yunu had heard this electronic voice when he first logged into the game and in the novice operation practice room.
The system continued to tell her: "From now on, you have a chance to encounter other players in the game world, and you can also explore the game world online with your game friends."
Jiang Yunu still hadn't figured out the specific form of this interactive function, and the system didn't explain it to her in too much detail. It was as if it wanted to preserve the player's fun of independent exploration. After saying the above two sentences, the system's intelligent voice became quiet again.
Jiang Yunu: "..."
Jiang Yunu had already stepped onto the grass behind the door. The green grass carpet was soft and there was a slight sinking feeling when stepping on it. When he walked, the grass stems would rub against each other and make a rustling sound.
The surrounding environment looks quite peaceful. Looking around, it doesn't look like an elemental beast would suddenly jump out from nowhere.
This sudden slowdown in the pace of the game made people uncomfortable. Jiang Yunu was not used to finishing two battles and then not having a third battle waiting right after.
She walked aimlessly across the grass for a while, feeling the wind blowing across the fields and smelling the fresh air that only large areas of greenery could bring.
"...So." Jiang Yunu stopped after walking for a while, a little puzzled, "What should I do now?"
Suddenly there were no fights, and those who played the game just for holographic combat began to feel a little bored.
However, the elemental beasts in the game are like public trains waiting in front of the platform. When you are not waiting for someone, you see other trains coming one after another. If you want to wait for a particular train, that train will be late as if it disappeared halfway.
Jiang Yunu wandered around feeling a bit bored, and gradually her "two points" of boredom almost increased to five or six points.
Suddenly, at this moment, a dark shadow passed over the distant mountains.
A whistling sound came from afar.
Even with the decibel dilution caused by the long distance, when the wind brought the unusual movement over there to Jiang Yunu's ears, she could still hear it - a big guy must have appeared over there!
"Yeah!"
Jiang Yunu's eyes lit up, just like someone who had been hungry for a long time and suddenly found that the neighbors were distributing relief food. She immediately changed direction, took a step forward, and ran towards the last place where the black shadow appeared.
Jiang Yunu hadn't run so freely for a long time.
The running she did in the previous game when fighting with elemental beasts is not counted. Those were almost all short-distance running, which tested her instantaneous burst speed and ability to change direction.
The "race" with Joyson on the narrow streets of the dilapidated city when I went back to Chat City to see Aunt Daisy before didn't count. It can be said that Jiang Yunu didn't use his full strength at all that time, and he didn't even speed up intentionally. He ran very "leisurely" the whole time.
Unexpectedly, she had the opportunity to sprint all out in the game after a long time. As soon as Jiang Yunu took a step, it was as if she was stepping on a pair of wind fire wheels. Her figure quickly passed through the grass, and as she ran, she brought up another gust of wind that blew over the lush grass.
The mountains in the distance seemed so far away before, but they were getting closer and closer as Jiang Yunu ran at full speed. Soon, the woods at the foot of the mountain were right in front of him.
When Jiang Yunu approached the forest, she could already hear more strange noises in the wind.
A strange beast was roaring in the depths of the woods.
The roar was powerful and full of energy.
You can tell from the sound of it that he is a big guy, and he is in good spirits and in great condition.
What kind of elemental beast will I encounter...?
Jiang Yunu went deeper into the woods without hesitation, and distracted herself by thinking about this matter. She found that the unknown did not bring her much fear, but instead brought her excitement.
This is the first new elemental beast she will encounter after leaving the novice trial map!
The slender and hard handle of the spatula had been warmed by Jiang Yunu's body temperature. She held it as if she was holding a new limb extending from her body.
——Then he rushed into the battlefield deep in the woods.
Before, Jiang Yunu could only hear the noises made by the elemental beasts. After she approached the edge of the battlefield, she discovered:
First, this elemental beast has entered combat state.
Second, the elemental beast has entered the battle, which obviously means that there are other players here already.
Jiang Yunu heard voices as he approached the battlefield.
"Back off! Back off! Don't rush too far ahead!"
"I@#... I must have destroyed the universe in my previous life so I could awaken as a water element in this life to heal you!"
"Wake up, this isn't a virtual battlefield, you can't use your super powers."
"...That makes sense. Then I can just pick up my weapon and kill you right now, right?!"
There were several people gathered in this forest battlefield, talking at once, mixed with the occasional noises and roars of elemental beasts.
The ambient noise was a bit loud, so the voices of those people talking to each other were also loud, so Jiang Yunu could naturally hear what they were saying clearly.
Judging from the above information, these people should be considered a small team.
Are they playing a team battle?
Jiang Yunu immediately felt a little hesitant. She didn't know whether this game had any rules that "outsiders are not allowed to intervene in team battles."
However, she did not hesitate for long.
Because it was accompanied by a sudden curse: "Fuck!"
The wind around suddenly became fierce, and the ground shook as if it was going to bounce people off the ground.
"Can't you two stop its activities?!" someone said angrily.
Before the man finished speaking, the huge elemental beast had already broken through the blockade and headed straight for the area where Jiang Yunu was staying.
Jiang Yunu was standing at the edge of the battlefield, and met face to face with the elemental beast that rushed in front of him in a blink of an eye.
It was indeed a big creature, three times the size of the elemental beasts she had seen in the novice trial map. It had folded wings behind it, and its feet would make a pit on the forest floor when it stepped on it. Its front paws were raised in front of it, and the tips of the claws were extremely sharp.
Jiang Yunu had no time to judge what kind of elemental beast this was. The other party was so big, but it even habitually glanced at the ground. When she lowered her head, she saw that she was very small compared to the other party.
A flash of snow before my eyes——
Jiang Yunu subconsciously held the spatula across to block!
"Bang!"
The elemental beast's hard and sharp claws hit the metal spatula and slid along the long horizontal handle of the spatula.
The sound of metal colliding and rubbing was so uncomfortable that it made your hair stand on end.
Jiang Yunu was hit, and as soon as she started fighting, she knew that this was not a monster she could defeat easily.
While someone was rushing over from behind the elemental beast and attacking it from behind, Jiang Yunu seized the opportunity and when the elemental beast turned around and faced behind her, she retreated to the side with the spatula.
The people who caught up from behind were cursing while trying to control the monster again. It was not difficult to hear that their actions were a bit flustered.
"Why do we have to learn how to block the movement of elemental beasts? Isn't it enough to just kill it in the end?"
"Yeah, don't worry about these little things. Just catch your target and work hard, okay?"
The two people who caught up with them talked a lot, and Jiang Yunu, who was hiding behind a big tree nearby, heard some of their chatter.
The elemental beasts are too large, and when they move, the earth and trees shake, and it is easy for them to cause flying sand and rocks in terrain like the forest.
Jiang Yunu and the people on the other side were separated by the elemental beast and the branches and leaves that occasionally flew in the sky and raised dust. They could only hear the beast's voice but could not see its true appearance.
"Is this exercise really necessary?" one person complained.
Jiang Yunu then understood that besieging this elemental beast here seemed to be just a kind of practice for this group of people.
They should have been able to defeat it easily, but they had to prolong the battle to train in specific techniques.
Not only is there a team, but this is also someone else's "practice object".
Jiang Yunu sighed in her heart, and the excitement she had before coming for the big guy subsided. She was sure that this was not a battle she could join casually.
Just as Jiang Yunu was about to leave, she suddenly heard new noises coming from behind her.
Something moved through the dense undergrowth behind her and approached her from behind.
Jiang Yunu turned around suddenly, grabbed the spatula and took a defensive stance.
She was prepared to see another elemental beast when she turned around, but she never expected that a human would appear behind her.
The other person was taller than Jiang Yunu, a man with short black hair, and his facial features looked strangely familiar to her.
The visitor's gaze fell on Jiang Yunu. He first saw the spatula tightly held in her hand, then fell to her face. When his gaze touched her clothes, the other party's originally calm expression seemed to be subtle for a moment, and then he silently moved his gaze away.
Jiang Yunu didn't know what this person meant, and found that the other party didn't seem to have any intention of greeting her actively.
A countdown pop-up window appeared in the corner of her vision, indicating that her time on the computer was about to end.
"Fuck!"
Angry curses were heard again from the battlefield behind them. It seemed that the two men had failed again and failed to successfully restrict the movements of the elemental beasts.
Hearing the curse, the newly appeared stranger quickly passed by Jiang Yunu and directly plunged into the battle with the elemental beast.
