When Sword Ghost first saw Gu Fei, he was shocked by his equipment. He was so shocked that he didn't even think of using Appraisal to take a closer look. But to be honest, Gu Fei's equipment was nothing more than a roadside item. Even if it was good, it wouldn't be that good. A truly exquisite item would require a lot of effort on its appearance, such as Frost Memories.
Hearing the endless screams of the monsters, Sword Ghost couldn't hold it in anymore.
How is this guy fighting monsters? As a player who was familiar with the various skills in the game, Sword Ghost could roughly determine the opponent's fighting style just by listening to the sounds. But at this moment, he couldn't figure out Gu Fei's behavior.
For a player like Sword Ghost who was good at researching the various skills in the game, he finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
In order to get firsthand information, Sword Ghost chose to use Stealth to sneak up on the monsters.
The skills in the parallel world weren't permanent after they were learned. They also needed to be improved over time. The improvement was called proficiency. The higher the proficiency, the better the effect of the skill. There were many ways to improve the proficiency of a skill, such as daily use, rewards from quests, or some items.
Stealth was obviously one of the most important skills for Thieves. Hardcore players like Sword Ghost knew how important it was, so he had been constantly practicing it and had reached a very high level. From the description alone, Sword Ghost's Stealth had no time limit. As long as he wasn't attacking or being attacked, he could stay in Stealth forever. It was definitely a necessary skill for spying.
The Sword Ghost lurked and passed through the thin forest until it finally saw Gu Fei.
There was no wind in the forest, but Sword Ghost could clearly feel a slight chill coming from the bottom of his heart.
Gu Fei's way of fighting monsters had completely destroyed all the knowledge he had accumulated in the game over the years.
His nimble footsteps caused his mage robe to flutter in the wind, and his old straw hat covered half of his face. His hand rose and fell, and the cold light flowed freely around him. That was how the monsters kept screaming. In Gu Fei's hand, it was a saber.
The knife looked very similar to a Tang knife. As it danced in Gu Fei's hand, Sword Ghost's knowledge of the game was shattered.
Gu Fei's attacks were beautiful, so beautiful that they were flawless.
But no matter how beautiful it was, it was still an ordinary attack!
A Mage wielding a sword and using normal attacks to farm monsters faster than him. Would anyone believe such a thing? The sword ghost was at a loss.
But after a moment of careful observation, Sword Ghost also noticed some of the mysteries in Gu Fei's fighting.
Every time he attacked with his saber, he could deal the most damage!
The damage values of weapons in the game were usually set in a range from the lowest to the highest, and the difference wasn't small either. The lowest and the highest were two completely different levels of damage. All along, whether it was better to choose a weapon with a high damage value or a weapon with a small range and high stability was a topic of debate. As for how to maximize the damage of the weapon, that was also a puzzle. In the end, the argument that the players were more willing to accept was one's good karma …
However, in the parallel world, which was a completely simulated MMORPG, the Sword Ghost had vaguely sensed that the difference between the maximum damage and the minimum damage was no longer a matter of luck but in the hands of the players themselves.
According to Sword Ghost's initial estimation, the more accurate his attacks were and the better his strength was, the higher his damage would be.
The Gu Fei in front of him was like this.
The Sword Ghost believed that even if his attacks didn't deal the most damage, they wouldn't be far off. Sword Ghost had been grinding here for a long time now. He knew very well how much HP these monsters had. Just a moment ago, he had clearly counted the number of slashes Gu Fei needed to kill a monster. With a slight calculation, he already knew how much damage Gu Fei could deal. Combined with Gu Fei's identity as a Mage, he concluded that Gu Fei was aiming for the most damage with each slash.
Control! At this moment, this word suddenly rushed into the Sword Ghost's mind.
Who said that there was no control in a holographic MMORPG? This was control. It was much more powerful than the clacking of the mouse and keyboard in normal MMORPG!
This type of control that pursued the most damage … yes, it was called extreme control! The Sword Ghost couldn't help but feel excited as if he had suddenly seen a whole new world.
At this moment, Gu Fei was clearly retreating as he fought. As he killed the monsters, he moved backward with quick steps.
"What, is he going to rest too?" The Sword Ghost was puzzled. He hadn't seen Gu Fei get injured! Although there was a setting for fatigue in the game, to be honest, this setting was a hindrance to the players. If one had the stamina of an ordinary person, they would be exhausted in a few minutes after such a high frequency of fighting. How could they play the game then?
Therefore, although there was a decrease in fatigue, it was actually quite slow. Players jokingly called it the anti-addiction system. It was a sarcastic comment that the game company didn't want players to play less games.
Could it be that under extreme control, the fatigue decreased very quickly? The Sword Ghost thought to himself. If that was the case, then the gains would not make up for the losses. While his Fatigue Points decreased slowly, so did his recovery rate. Currently, there was no way for him to recover quickly. He could only spend time waiting. Although logging out of the game counted, in the Sword Ghost Sword's eyes, it was absolutely not worth it.
In any case, Gu Fei was clearly fighting as he retreated. The monsters that he lured were also killed one by one. The newly spawned monsters weren't in his attack range, so they didn't chase after him. When he retreated to the edge of the forest, he slashed down and killed the last monster.
Amazing! The Sword Ghost thought to himself. Just the way he had retreated was enough to be described as an extreme maneuver.
But the amazing part was yet to come. After the monster was cut down, Gu Fei held his blade in one hand and adjusted his straw hat with the other. His eyes were covered by the brim of the hat, and he looked in the direction of the Sword Ghost. He smiled and said, "What's the matter?"
The Sword Ghost turned around, but didn't see anyone behind him.
"Are you talking about me? You can see me? "The Sword Ghost looked surprised.
"I can't see you, but I can feel you," Gu Fei said.
"How is that possible!" The Sword Ghost was astonished. He suddenly remembered the day when they were PKing and his backstab. At that time, he thought that Gu Fei had sensed him when he used his skill, so he quickly turned around and caught him.
Combined with the current situation, could it be that Gu Fei already knew that he was hiding?
What was this? The Sword Ghost was confused? The Sword Ghost was confused.
"I'm telling you, hurry up and reveal your true form!" Gu Fei shouted. He knew of the Sword Ghost's existence, but he couldn't see him. The Sword Ghost's voice came from the air. This scene was too strange.
The Sword Ghost stopped hiding, and his figure gradually appeared.
"What's the matter?" Gu Fei asked.
"I want to see how you fight monsters," the Sword Ghost said.
"How is it?" Gu Fei laughed.
"Very good!" The Sword Ghost nodded.
"My Tang Saber Nine Consecutive … …"
"Tang Saber Nine Consecutive?"
"Yes!" Gu Fei nodded.
What was this? Was this the name of his skill? Tang Saber. Two years ago, there was a Wuxia online game that had this kind of equipment. The Sword Ghost thought to himself. His rich experience and knowledge were limited to online games. The famous Tang Saber made him think of a lowly piece of equipment.
"Three Styles of Split Flow!" Gu Fei suddenly shouted. With a twist of his wrist, he raised the saber in his hand and slashed at the air three times.
"Three Styles of Wave Breaking!" As soon as he said this, his aura changed. Like a fierce tiger coming down a mountain, he slashed at the air three times.
"Three Styles of Burning Sun!" The saber retracted in front of him, and with a shake of his arm, he slashed at the air three times.
"In the Nine Consecutive Tang Saber, to be able to flexibly use the three techniques of slicing, chopping, and stabbing, it would take at least ten years of hard work to master it. What can I do?" Gu Fei laughed at himself.
The Sword Ghost only nodded blankly. He had no idea what Gu Fei was talking about. In his eyes, Gu Fei's messy moves were far less exciting than when he fought monsters.
"Oh right, why are you looking for me?" Gu Fei asked.
The Sword Ghost was indeed looking for something, but he couldn't make up his mind. But after seeing Gu Fei's "extreme skills", he finally made up his mind. "I have a friend who wants to find a few people to form a mercenary group. Are you interested?"
"Mercenary group?"
"You don't know?"
"I know, of course I know." Gu Fei, who had been paying attention to many aspects of the game, knew about the two major organizations in the game.
Guilds and mercenary groups.
A guild was like a gang in a game. In the "parallel world", one person could nominate and twenty people would respond, and they could form a guild.
Mercenary groups, on the other hand, were different from normal online games. They didn't have a number requirement. Even one person could announce the formation of a mercenary group. Then, they could accept mercenary quests issued by the system to earn money, experience, or other rewards. In addition, players or guilds could also go to the Mercenary Union in the game to issue quests and submit rewards. If players accepted the quest and completed it, they could also earn rewards. Of course, it was impossible for players to provide rewards in the form of experience. Most of them would be money or equipment.
There was no conflict between guilds and mercenary groups. In other words, people from different guilds could also form a mercenary group. However, the current trend was for guilds to form their own mercenary groups. Although a mercenary group could be formed by one person, looking at the mercenary quests issued by the system, it was impossible for one person to complete them. This kind of lone hero would probably only be able to complete some simple quests issued by players in the future! Therefore, the fact that a guild could nurture a powerful mercenary group was a hot topic in the game at the moment.
Gu Fei smiled and said, "Why, do you want me to join your Against the Heavens Guild mercenary group?"
The Sword Ghost smiled bitterly, "Against the Heavens Guild has already disbanded."
"Ah, why?" Gu Fei was puzzled. Guilds could only be created by level 30 players, and players above level 20 could respond. The Sword Ghost was already 30, so Gu Fei thought that his Against the Heavens Guild had been established for a long time.
