"Come, come, come!" Deep Water enthusiastically acted as the middleman, waving at Old Duan before calling out to Gu Fei and the Sword Ghost. His attentive attitude was comparable to that of a professional matchmaker.
"This is comrade Old Broken that I've been telling you guys about." Deepwater first introduced Water Breaking Arrow to Gu Fei and Sword Ghoul.
"Hello." Water Breaking Arrow shook hands with Sword Specter before extending his hand to Gu Fei. "Hello."
"Hello …" Gu Fei stretched out his hand to shake hands with him, his eyes quickly swept over the other's hand. When he raised his eyes, the Water Breaking Arrow's gaze also moved away from his hand. Gu Fei smiled faintly and let go of his hand.
"Those two!!" Shui Shen's voice suddenly rose an octave, startling the three present.
"This is Sword Ghost. Old Duan, if you've had any contact with him in the game, it's impossible that you haven't heard of him. He's the publicly acknowledged number one expert in the game, and he's also a good friend of mine for many years. "Water Depth introduced Sword Ghost.
The Sword Ghost hurriedly replied modestly, saying that it was all in the past.
"This one!! Thousand Li Drunk! How is it, Old Duan, do you already know who it is? "Deep Water said.
"Oh … I know, I know. It's an honor to meet you," Old Duan said. Obviously, in this parallel world game, Gu Fei was much more famous than the Sword Specter, and as time passed, his name was no longer a secret.
Seeing how excited Shui Shen was, Gu Fei knew that introducing Old Duan to the two of them was just a child showing off. On the other hand, introducing the two of them to Old Duan was also a form of showing off … This guy.
At this time, Water Depth was satisfied and finally returned to the mentality of a normal person. He looked at the two and said, "Oh right, why did you come to find me?"
"It's nothing. I just passed by Shady Grove City and came to see you. I wanted to say that if you're not busy, we can get together. But you seem to be quite busy," the Sword Ghost said.
"That's right, we still don't know what this city war is all about. We have to hurry up and study and train. Once we become the lords of this city, you can come back and let me properly play the role of a host." Deepwater put his hand on the Sword Ghost's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Alright, alright, we'll be taking our leave first." The Sword Ghost bid farewell to Water Depth.
"Take care, I won't send you off." Deepwater waved goodbye to the two and immediately dove into the bushes, continuing to study jungle warfare with his soldiers.
"That Water Breaking Arrow isn't an ordinary person!" Gu Fei said to the Sword Ghost when he saw that they had already walked far away.
"What?"
"His body is very strong, his knuckles are thick, and his skin is rough." Gu Fei said.
"What … does this mean?" the Sword Ghost asked.
"Yes, and it's not an ordinary one either." Gu Fei said.
"No, I think some of the characteristics you mentioned are common to people who do heavy physical labor. For example, migrant workers," the Sword Ghost said.
"The main point is his handshake." Gu Fei said, "His strength is neither too strong nor too weak, it's just right. This shows that he has a certain level of control over his strength. This is definitely a quality that can only be developed through specialized training."
"Is that so? Why didn't I sense it? " Sword Ghost glanced at his right hand. It was also the hand that had held Water Breaking Arrow's. He didn't feel that Water Breaking Arrow's hand was any different from an ordinary person's.
"Of course, this can only be felt by people who have undergone special training." Gu Fei said.
"If that's the case, then this person must be very good in PK." The Sword Ghost's expression was tragic. He thought of the Hundred Realms of Statecraft and Gu Xian. These people who had undergone training were on a completely different level from ordinary players.
"That's not necessarily true." Gu Fei said, "I saw that his waist, abdomen, thighs, and neck are all very thick. This means that this guy is a strength type. If he had chosen to be a warrior, he might have been more difficult to deal with. However, he is now an archer, and his advantage is agility. This doesn't match his style!" After being baptized by the game for such a long time, Gu Fei was no longer blindly focused on Kung Fu. In this environment, he also needed to be proficient in the necessary rules of the game. How to combine Kung Fu with in-game professions, attributes, and skills was the main topic that Gu Fei was currently researching.
"You actually know how to use Identify on people!" The Sword Ghost was very surprised.
"Nope! I didn't use it. "Gu Fei said.
"Then how do you know that he is an archer?" The Sword Ghost said.
"You heard his name, Water Breaking Arrow. He is destined to be an archer …" Gu Fei said.
"How could there be such a thing!" The Sword Ghost wiped his sweat.
"But he is indeed an archer, isn't he?" Gu Fei smiled.
"Yes, he is a godly archer, but the way you judge …"
"Hehe, I am joking. I saw the bow on his back." Gu Fei said.
The Sword Ghost was speechless.
"Are you really going to give up on this quest?" Gu Fei asked for one last time.
"Give it up!" The Sword Ghost sighed, "He is a friend with deep waters, and it is a personal quest."
"Have you ever thought about why the Assassin League would choose him as your assassination target?" Gu Fei said.
"What do you mean?" The Sword Ghost asked.
"Isn't there a saying? People do it, and the Heavens are watching. Of course, in reality, there is no such thing as the Heavens, but in the game, the System is the Heavens. No matter what you do, you can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from the System. "Gu Fei said.
"You mean … this guy is like that Apple Vinegar, a PK maniac who kills people like flies?" The Sword Ghost said.
"Of course I don't know the specifics, but I feel that the System can't just randomly pick a random person for you to kill. When it comes to PK, it's fine if the System turns a blind eye, but it shouldn't encourage it from behind the scenes. Especially when the PK penalty in this game is so heavy. "Gu Fei said.
"You are getting more and more familiar with the game's settings and rules." The Sword Ghost was gratified. Sometimes, Gu Fei's newbie behavior made experts like them want to vomit blood.
"No, I have just seen too many players suffer after being PK …" Gu Fei said.
The Sword Ghost was silent for a long time before saying, "What you said makes sense. For example, a two-way quest. This kind of PK confrontation created by the System behind the scenes weakens the PK penalty. From this, you can see the System's attitude towards PK. They have a very clear understanding of PK. Also, if you die, you will lose a level. This kind of punishment is quite heavy. But this can't be helped. The parallel world isn't like the previous games, where you can add a new server every month or even every week. Newbies can go to the new server and stand on the same starting line as other newbies. In the parallel world, everyone is in the same world and the same server. The new players will always be behind the old players by a period of time. This kind of heavy death penalty is a form of suppression for the old players, so that we won't be too far behind the new players. The difficulty of leveling up should also be for this purpose. And I dare say that this game will definitely have a level cap. It's impossible to level up endlessly. "
The Sword Ghost was worthy of being a veteran of many years of gaming. Even if he didn't talk about the game's content, he could still talk about the game's operations.
"There's a level cap? Then wouldn't the current level and experience leaderboards be meaningless? "Gu Fei said.
"That?" The Sword Ghost laughed, "That's only in the current stage of development. It was created to stimulate players to go online and spend more money. When everyone's level reaches the cap and loses its meaning, there will naturally be other leaderboards to stimulate competition. Don't worry!" The Sword Ghost said.
Gu Fei sighed. Look at the Sword Ghost. He clearly saw through the game's operations and the tricks used to lure players, but he still couldn't pull himself out of it. Was this the legendary love in death?
"Then, we've gone off topic. Let's talk about the present. What are you planning on doing with this Water Breaking Arrow quest?" Gu Fei said.
"Uh …" The Sword Ghost thought for a while and then looked at Gu Fei. "Honestly, did you find out that he's a strong man, so you want to fight him? Is that why you're encouraging me to fight?"
"Nonsense! How could I be that kind of person? "Gu Fei said sternly.
The Sword Ghost continued to look at Gu Fei and spat out two words, "It's hard to say …"
"What are you saying? If you really can't deal with him, of course I'll help you!" Gu Fei said.
"Let's investigate this guy's background first. If there's really something wrong, then we'll make a move." The Sword Ghost finally decided.
"Go find Brother You?" Gu Fei shuddered. This was a new quest that he had never experienced before. If he went to find Brother You, this guy would follow up and report the whole process … Fighting with Brother You wasn't a problem, but doing quests with this guy was a kind of torture because he had too many questions and wanted to know too much. A quest would be torn apart by him and he would study it to death … In a game that relied on quests to level up quickly, there was a reason why the person who knew the most information in the game and had a lot of time online would never stand out in the ranking!
"It's just a random player. Asking Brother You to investigate might be a little too difficult." The Sword Ghost said.
"That's true. If it was some Top Ten, it might be easier." Gu Fei said.
"Unfortunately, he's not …" The Sword Ghost said.
"Of course he's not …" Gu Fei nodded.
If Breaking Water Arrow was one of the Top Ten Archers, then as one of the Top Ten, Imperial Shenming would definitely know about it. He would definitely point it out and strongly urge the Sword Ghost to complete the quest and kill him to weaken his competitors.
"Then where do we start?" Gu Fei looked at the experienced online game veteran.
"Of course from the people around you." The Sword Ghost said, "Let's ask Ke!"
"Who's that?" Gu Fei was puzzled.
"Deep Water's wife. Have you forgotten?" The Sword Ghost said.
"Have I seen her before?" Gu Fei asked.
The Sword Ghost thought about it. He couldn't remember if he had introduced this girl to Gu Fei. (Okay, I admit, the author doesn't remember.)
"What's the difference between asking her and asking Deep Water?" Gu Fei asked.
"The difference is that they're not the same person …" The Sword Ghost replied.
"Won't she tell Deep Water again?" Gu Fei said.
"That depends on what it is. This shouldn't be the case." The Sword Ghost said.
