The other players of the Defiant Guild looked dispirited when they saw their guild leader lose so thoroughly. After glaring viciously at Gu Fei and Fireball a few times, they silently followed them and left.
Fireball was unforgiving, whistling and hissing at them. The online gaming expert he once worshipped now only had one word in his mind: Bah!
"Brother Zui, Brother Zui!!!" When the Defiant Guild members had left, Fireball had already erected a new idol.
"How did you know he was behind you?" Fireball asked.
"Because I have a murderous aura." Gu Fei smiled.
"Murderous aura … Really?" Fireball muttered to himself.
"Of course." Gu Fei nodded. "I'm still not very good with murderous aura. My fourth uncle is the best at it. For example, if he's sleeping there and you walk around him and make a sound, he'll still be sound asleep. But as soon as you focus on him, he'll immediately wake up! "
"You really know martial arts!" Fireball said.
"It's not martial arts, it's kung fu!" Gu Fei said.
"What's the difference?"
"Martial arts is to strengthen the body; kung fu is to defeat the enemy and protect the country." Gu Fei sighed as he spoke. This was the difference between him and his father. His father always emphasized that they practiced martial arts, but Gu Fei felt that it was clearly kung fu.
"Protect the country … Is there a need for that now?" Fireball asked.
"No." Gu Fei smiled. "That's why I'm playing online games!"
"Oh … Can I learn?" Fireball was excited.
"You …" Gu Fei hesitated.
"Is it because I'm too old?" Fireball was a little disappointed. He was already in his twenties. According to some Wuxia novels, the protagonist should be famous in Jianghu at this age. If he started practicing martial arts at this age, his wives would all be snatched away by the time he came out of the mountains.
Unexpectedly, Gu Fei shook his head. "Kung fu can only be learned when the body is mature, at least fifteen or sixteen years old. You're about the same age as me, how can you be too old? It's just that learning kung fu takes a lot of time, at least eight to twelve hours a day. Do you have that much free time? "
"No." Fireball answered without thinking.
"Or use your time in the game …"
"No, no, I don't want to learn it. Let's continue the game!" Fireball hurriedly interrupted.
Gu Fei smiled helplessly.
At this time, the six tramps had respawned. Gu Fei picked up the Flesh-Cutting Knife he had dropped earlier and was about to head over to kill the enemy when Fireball said, "Brother Zui, the levels of the monsters here are too high. I'm not as good as you. I'm going somewhere else to train."
"I'll carry you!" Gu Fei said.
"I'm here to play games, not to ask someone to carry me!" Fireball said with determination.
"Alright, go ahead then!" Gu Fei smiled.
"Brother Zui, slow down. Don't leave me too far behind!" Fireball waved as he ran. "If you haven't logged off, let's go back to the city for a drink."
"Yes, yes!" Gu Fei replied.
The two then separated, and Gu Fei continued to grind monsters in the leveling area. He was very excited about the fight with the Sword Ghost. It had been a long time since he had the chance to fight with someone like this. Gu Fei loved the feeling of the moment between victory and defeat. Although his opponent's combat skills were quite rough, in a simulation game like the "Parallel World" that required combat, it was only a matter of time before everyone grasped a certain level of combat skills. That was when the game would truly be interesting.
As for the NPCs in front of him? Gu Fei was bored to death as he casually flipped through the pages. A computer was still a computer. This kind of inflexible attack method was useless if it was used over and over again. Sooner or later, all players would discover the computer's attack pattern. For example, the Sword Ghost just now. With his intelligence and reaction speed, he would eventually become an expert.
At the bottom of the hill by the pond, Gu Fei farmed monsters for a full two hours. In his eyes, he wasn't fighting monsters, but practicing his Kung Fu. This feeling of sweating like rain was what he liked. He didn't feel that his repetitions were boring at all. Gu Fei was able to persevere when his family members gave up on Kung Fu one after another because he loved Kung Fu and experienced endless joy from it.
After killing another six vagrants, Gu Fei had risen to level 16. He cupped the water by the pond and wiped his face. The hot sweat on his face was cooled by the cold water, and he felt extremely refreshed. This was the first time Gu Fei was truly impressed by the realism of the game. The feeling of sweat and the cold touch were simply amazing.
At that moment, Gu Fei received a notification of a message. He opened his inbox and saw that it was indeed Fireball. "Brother Zui, what level are you now?"
"Level 16," Gu Fei replied.
"Ah! Ah! That's fast. I've only just reached level 10. "Gu Fei could feel Fireball's wailing as he read the message. However, he only reached level 10 after two hours. Thinking back, he had only fought two rounds by the pond. It seemed that in the parallel world, killing monsters above his level was the best way to level up quickly!
"Brother Zui, are you done with your work? I've saved up some money. I'll buy you a drink when we get back! "Fireball sent another message.
"Sure!" Gu Fei replied and began to clean up the six monsters he had defeated. A small amount of money, some unknown flowers and plants, and knives. Gu Fei had collected more than a dozen of them and had no place to put them.
Although it was completely simulated, it was still necessary for the character to have a backpack to store items in. In the parallel world, the backpack was designed as a pocket. The items that were picked up could be thrown into the pocket on the right side of the waist. Even if the item was placed in the backpack, it would not fall out again. When you wanted to take something, you could put your hand into the pocket and feel the neatly arranged spaces. Whichever space you put your hand into, the item in that space would naturally be held in your hand. When your hand was out of the pocket, the item would be taken out. It felt as magical as Doraemon.
Gu Fei packed up and climbed up the hill. He looked around to determine the direction to return to Cloud Peak City.
Coincidentally, he saw a guy leveling up by the pond at the foot of the hill. Lurking behind the tramps, he used Backstab. Following that, he would stab wildly at the monsters that surrounded him. After knocking one down, he would run away to rest. After his HP recovered, he would repeat the same trick.
The dagger in this person's hand exuded a faint blue glow. Gu Fei smiled. He recognized this person as the Sword Specter. The Sword Specter seemed to be around level 20, so it was suitable for him to level up here. However, a group of six tramps wasn't suitable for solo players. Other than Gu Fei, who was ridiculously skilled, only a calculative player like the Sword Specter could deal with them.
There should have been six tramps around the campfire, but there were only three. When the fourth spawned, the Sword Specter would immediately move forward. Lurking, approaching, Backstab, forcefully attack, retreat, rest, and then attack again.
The Sword Specter's attack method was the same as Gu Fei's. It was based on the characteristics of the NPCs. Gu Fei couldn't help but admire it in his heart.
However, Gu Fei soon discovered that there was another person watching the Sword Specter's performance on the hillside not far from him.
This person wore a close-fitting purple robe that showed off her figure. It was obvious that she was a female player. From the side, Gu Fei couldn't see her face clearly. He could only see that she was holding her left arm with her right hand and placed two fingers on her lips with her left hand. She was focused on the Sword Specter at the bottom of the hill.
He didn't expect a girl to know her stuff. Gu Fei smiled. At this time, the Sword Specter had just taken care of another tramp and retreated to a rest area. He touched his pockets and seemed to find that his backpack was full. He let out a long sigh and looked up. Then, he saw the two people watching him from the hillside. After a moment of surprise, he turned around and left.
I wonder if he recognizes me from this distance. Gu Fei thought to himself. He didn't have a special equipment like the Sword Specter's Frost Memories.
Having lost their target, the two people immediately chose their own directions and left. Gu Fei noticed that the girl was walking in the same direction as the Sword Specter. He laughed inwardly. Could it be that the Sword Specter is having a romantic encounter? Although he was curious, he immediately gave up on the idea of following them when he remembered that Fireball was still waiting for him at the bar in the city.
