In the blink of an eye, it had been a week since the "Parallel World" open beta. All the players were trying their best to adapt to the changes brought about by the new online game. As a teacher in the school, Gu Fei would hear discussions about the game everywhere. Of course, Gu Fei would not discuss it with them. At Gu Fei's request, Ah Fa did not tell anyone in the school that Teacher Gu Fei was playing the game.
Teachers were people too, young people. Many of them liked video games just like the students. It was just that the restriction of being a role model teacher made them always look otherworldly in front of the students. As for the things that the students liked, they were used to expressing disdain. Although Gu Fei was just an insignificant physical education teacher, he still did things according to the teacher's code of conduct.
However, to the students and colleagues, Gu Fei's change was obvious. This guy finally stopped talking about his Kung Fu.
Teacher Gu Fei had finally become a normal person! This actually became a piece of news in the school, neither big nor small.
Gu Fei did not care about this. He spent his free time in the "Parallel World". He liked this virtual world. This world allowed him to use Kung Fu as he pleased.
However, Gu Fei did not forget that this was a game. A game needed the support of information.
Every time he leveled up, Gu Fei would go to the official website to research the information and choose the next leveling area.
Gu Fei had three requirements when choosing monsters: humanoid, close combat, and a higher level than him.
Choosing humanoid and close combat were all for the sake of displaying his Kung Fu. Gu Fei did not play the online game for the sake of the game. He played the online game for his Kung Fu. What others saw as a boring leveling process, Gu Fei saw it as a process of practicing Kung Fu. That was why he never felt that it was boring. Even if he had to repeat the same action a thousand times, he could still put his heart and soul into it.
As for choosing monsters that were higher level than him, that was a consideration from the perspective of the online game. The experience gained from killing monsters in the "Parallel World" was fixed. Of course, the higher the level, the more experience. Therefore, killing monsters that were higher level than him was undoubtedly the fastest way to level up. Gu Fei had the ability to do so. Of course, he would not give up so easily. However, even though he had Kung Fu skills that ordinary people did not have, Gu Fei's ability to kill monsters that were higher level than him was still limited. Basically, he could not keep up with the monsters that were 20 levels higher than him. He could not break through the monsters' defense.
This situation reminded Gu Fei of the time when he was young when his father was teaching him martial arts.
"You're small and weak, so I don't care about your attacks at all." Even though Gu Fei had punched Old Man, he was still smiling. Following that, he quickly slapped Gu Fei to the ground and continued to chuckle, "You saw my shoulder move, so you knew I was going to slap you. But you couldn't avoid it, and you couldn't block it. Why? Because your hands can't keep up with your eyes. I have to practice, I still have to practice. "
Gu Fei had grown up through such challenges. He missed the fun of that time. Now that he had a chance to experience this pleasure, how could he not be excited?
He wanted to level up, improve himself, and challenge stronger enemies. In the game, everything was that simple.
On this day, Gu Fei finally reached level 30.
After every player leveled up, they would habitually look at the EXP required to level up. Gu Fei was no exception, but this one glance gave him a great shock.
Are you kidding me? Is this the experience needed to level up from 30 to 31? Am I level 30 or 300? Gu Fei thought.
Compared to the last time, the experience gained from leveling up was no longer 10%. Instead, it was multiplied by 10.
Ten times!
He had never heard of an MMORPG having such a large amount of EXP.
At this time, in the "parallel world", the number of players reaching level 30 was rapidly increasing.
Everyone was in a whirlpool of dumbfounded leveling up.
Everyone went crazy, thinking of this as a bug and reporting it to the game company. At that moment, almost no one was still leveling up.
The game company quickly sent out an announcement.
The data was normal, it wasn't a bug. The reason why this happened was because the game company had adjusted the EXP required to level up before level 30.
The cause of this adjustment was the violent incidents that occurred on the first day of the open beta. A large number of players relied on their innate physical advantage to bully weaker classes. The game company couldn't directly intervene. All they could do was adjust the game settings to prevent this from happening.
After some discussion, the final decision was to greatly reduce the EXP required for players before level 30.
This would allow players to quickly reach level 30.
This was the level that the game company had deemed to be balanced among the various classes. Players of any class would have the ability to protect themselves and deal with their enemies at this level. Relying on natural constitution to bully weaker players would no longer happen after level 30. Of course, if you were a noob, there was nothing they could do about it. However, this was no longer the game company's responsibility.
This was a statement that could convince the players. Many people had witnessed the atrocious incidents at the beginning of the game, so of course they wouldn't have any objections. After the players realized that nothing had changed, they immediately flew back into the game to continue fighting.
Gu Fei didn't know about any of this.
After confirming that he wasn't level 300, and that he didn't even look at the EXP bar, Gu Fei's eyelid twitched before returning to normal. He wanted to ask Red Dust Smile about it, but when he opened his friend list and saw that the other party wasn't online, he gave up.
Even if there was a mistake, the game company would naturally correct it. I just have to hurry up and train! Gu Fei thought. He followed the route that he had chosen long ago and stepped onto the leveling area he needed.
Gu Fei's leveling area was a leveling area, while others were leveling up to 40.
Actually, it was possible to fight at a higher level, but the monsters' levels were already high, and they had high HP and HP. Looking at the ratio of time to experience gained, leveling up to 40 monsters was the most efficient.
When he unexpectedly met Sword Ghost in the leveling area, Sword Ghost explained this theory in a tone that said great minds think alike.
Gu Fei, of course, thought the same. The only difference was that Sword Ghost leveled up, but every time Gu Fei leveled up, Sword Ghost saw it as an improvement in his martial arts. If it was purely from the perspective of an online game, Gu Fei wouldn't have such enthusiasm.
At this time, Sword Ghost was already level 30.5. It was obvious that he had reached level 30 earlier than everyone else, but he and Gu Fei were the same. Their eyelids twitched, and they continued to level up in an orderly manner.
After a few words of greeting, Gu Fei said, "I won't disturb your leveling anymore," and walked to another leveling area alone.
Neither of them mentioned forming a party to level up.
From Sword Ghost's point of view, his method was completely solo leveling. Although adding another person could increase the experience gained by both of them, it would be less efficient compared to the time.
Gu Fei also saw through Sword Ghost's method of fighting monsters and didn't need help. Moreover, he was also fighting monsters with the mentality of practicing martial arts, so he didn't need anyone to help him.
With tacit understanding, they went their separate ways.
Before parting ways, Gu Fei glanced at Frost Memory in Sword Ghost's hand enviously. As it turned out, Xi Xiaotian's eyes were indeed sharp. Frost Memory's price was probably too low, even if it was fifty thousand yuan.
The most valuable part of this dagger was not its high damage, nor was it its critical rate, nor was it its freezing rate. Instead, it was its 25 points of additional value.
Players only gave five points for leveling up, so this dagger was equivalent to increasing the player's level by five. For an online game where the fastest way to level up was to fight monsters above your level, the value of this attribute didn't need to be explained.
'Even if it's not a weapon, I can still go to leveling areas five levels higher with this stone hanging on my waist,' Gu Fei thought to himself. Although he was envious, Gu Fei didn't regret returning the dagger to Sword Ghost and even helping him find it after he lost it. This was a matter of principle.
The two leveling areas were separated by a small forest, so they couldn't see each other. They could only vaguely hear the screams of monsters on both sides. The difference was that Sword Ghost would pause for a while, while Gu Fei would scream again and again.
Sword Ghost needed rest to recover his HP. In the "parallel world," when the system determined that a player was attacking or being attacked, there was no way to recover their HP with potions. Potions could only help players recover their HP quickly in peace mode. In battle mode, according to the officials, players could only use recovery skills or special equipment to recover their HP.
It could be said that in the "parallel world," solo leveling was extremely hard work.
Of course, Gu Fei was an anomaly. He didn't use skills and only used normal attacks, but his efficiency was even higher than Sword Ghost, who used all the skills that a Thief could use within level 30 to their fullest.
As for the huge difference in experience between the two, it was only because Gu Fei had a job. In addition, he had to spend a lot of time practicing martial arts in real life, which couldn't be replaced by an online game.
As for Sword Ghost, Gu Fei didn't know what he did, but as long as he was online, his name would always be on. He was probably a legendary professional player. Gu Fei pondered about the Sword Ghoul as he practiced.
On the other side of the forest, Sword Ghost was also thinking about Gu Fei.
He hadn't seen him for a while, and he was already level 30.
Level 30 in a week was actually a very bad result in Sword Ghost's eyes.
However, he was online for a long time and paid close attention to Gu Fei, so he was very clear about Gu Fei's daily online time.
When he looked at the time, Sword Ghost was shocked. His efficiency had exceeded his own.
At the same time, he was puzzled by Gu Fei's attire.
He was already a level 30 Mage, so what was he wearing? He hadn't even changed out of his Mage robe, and there was a bulge at his waist. Was there another dagger in it? The straw hat on his head seemed to be equipment that only Warriors would wear, right? The cloth boots on his feet seemed to be for us Thieves!
Oh my god! What was that?
