Asuna felt a little uncomfortable as she followed Fangzheng down the street.
This was the first time she had gone out alone with a young man. Although it did not look like a date, she still felt a little nervous. She didn't know why either. Although Fangzheng wasn't a serious person, and he didn't have a straight face like her mother, he always had a smile on his face and looked very amiable.
But every time Asuna saw Fangzheng, she couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat. How should she describe this feeling? It was like the feeling she had when she didn't finish her homework on time and saw her teacher when she was young.
But she did not dare to disobey Fangzheng. She could only follow behind Fangzheng, walking back and forth on the street.
The people around them looked at them from time to time. This was normal, because both Fangzheng and Asuna were wearing the guild uniform of Darkmoon Sword. The guild uniform was designed by the guild leader. Fangzheng had some talent in drawing, so the guild uniform he designed was extremely eye-catching. It was extremely good-looking.
Guild uniforms should not be underestimated. In the real world, many students chose their schools based on the appearance of the school uniform, and the game was no exception. Compared to the old-fashioned actions of most guild leaders, who would simply change the color of their default guild avatars and add a guild logo, Fangzheng's uniform was far superior in terms of looks. Naturally, it was easier to attract the attention of others.
"Mr. Fangzheng …. Where are we going?"
Asuna could no longer stand the stares from the people around her. She lowered her voice and asked. As for Fangzheng, he casually turned his head and looked around.
"Just taking a stroll."
"… … …."
Take a stroll?
Asuna was a little angry when she heard Fangzheng's answer. But before she could complain, Fangzheng suddenly said, "I talked to Yuna before.
"I've talked to Yuna before, and I've got some ideas about her Chant skill," Lin Huang said.
"Eh?"
Asuna immediately focused her attention. Of course, she knew how powerful the "Chant" skill was. Especially after Yuna joined the frontline raid team, Asuna had experienced the power of the entire party's buff more than once. However, there was no way to learn this rare skill, and Asuna didn't know how to learn it.
Hearing Fangzheng say that he had an idea, Asuna also became spirited and looked at Fangzheng in front of her.
"You know that every time Yuna casts a buff, she would play and sing to herself."
"Yes …"
"I just asked. According to Yuna, she used to play the piano and sing for the members of the Dark Nebula Guild to relieve stress. One day, she suddenly received a notification about this skill …"
Fangzheng paused for a moment.
"Did you notice anything wrong?"
"Eh … what … problem?"
"That zither."
Fangzheng glanced at Asuna and continued.
"I did some research later. That zither was sold in a grocery store in the Town of Beginnings. The price wasn't high, and it seemed to be completely designed according to a real-life musical instrument. Anyone who understands music can play it. I originally thought it was just a very ordinary game item used to add some atmosphere to the game. But now that I think about it, maybe those skills are also related to the game item? "
"Eh …?"
Asuna was stunned for a moment.
"Why do you think so, Mr. Fangzheng?"
"Because don't you think it's strange? In online games, although some miscellaneous items are added for the sake of authenticity, the number of such items is not too high. But right now, we have all kinds of shops everywhere. Apart from weapon shops, equipment shops, and shops that sell production skills, there are also many grocery stores. "
While speaking, Fangzheng pointed at the shops on both sides of the road.
"Look at the things they sell."
"… … …."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, Asuna looked carefully. She saw that the windows of the surrounding grocery stores and accessory stores were filled with ordinary daily necessities, from needles and thread to musical instruments and stationery. There was everything that one could think of.
"What's … strange about this?"
"Of course it's not strange in the real world, but it's very strange in the game. You must know, Asuna, everything in the game takes up data space. If these 'miscellaneous items' are only used to increase the player's sense of immersion, there's no need to make so many of them. You just need to make a few representative items to give the player a sense of immersion. Making things one by one like this is not only a huge waste of data space, but it may also cause all kinds of system bugs. "
While speaking, Fangzheng came to a shop and looked at the goods displayed in the window.
"Look at this blank sheepskin scroll and quill. They're used to record information, but in the game, the player can store and send information through the system itself. There's no need to do this at all. So, what's the use of these things?"
After saying that, Fangzheng found an NPC shop assistant and bought a bundle of sheepskin scrolls, quill, ink, a carving knife, and some needles and thread.
Asuna was completely confused by Fangzheng's actions, but she still quietly followed behind Fangzheng and watched him "sweep through" the shops one after another. He bought all kinds of miscellaneous items that were completely unrelated to combat, strategy, and leveling up.
Asuna had mixed feelings when she saw Fangzheng's "idleness".
In Asuna's opinion, Fangzheng should be preparing to continue training and lead them to defeat the second floor lord, then the third floor, then the fourth floor … There were a hundred floors here. If it weren't for the fact that they needed to eat and drink, Asuna would have killed the lord 24 hours a day and cleared the floor in the blink of an eye.
But now, Fangzheng was taking her aimlessly shopping and wasting her time!
Asuna basically did not say a word along the way. She just followed behind Fangzheng with a gloomy aura. She did not dare to turn around and leave, nor did she dare to complain to Fangzheng. This was the only way she could vent her dissatisfaction.
She was like a child who was angry with her parents and did not dare to quarrel with them or hit them. She could only pout her lips and wait for her parents to find out that she was unhappy.
However, Fangzheng did not seem to notice Asuna's unhappiness at all. He just brought Asuna around the entire shopping street, then brought her to a restaurant. He did not even speak to Asuna and directly ordered a few dishes. Only when she smelled the aroma of food did Asuna realize that she had been dragged out by Fangzheng before she even had lunch. She had originally planned to have a sandwich or something during the break in leveling, but now …
Hmph!
Asuna glanced at Fangzheng, who was looking at the menu opposite her, and lowered her head with a cold expression.
I'd rather starve to death or jump down from here than eat a bite ….
"Sorry to keep you waiting. Here are the steaks you ordered."
Before Asuna could finish her sentence, an NPC waiter came over with steaming steaks and placed them in front of them. Fangzheng put down the menu and nodded at Asuna.
"It's my treat. Let's eat."
"…."
Asuna looked at Fangzheng, who had already lowered his head and started wolfing down the steak. She hesitated for a moment, then picked up the knife and fork, cut a small piece of the tender steak, and put it in her mouth.
In the next moment, the delicious sauce and the tender and crispy texture of the beef spread in her mouth.
Delicious!
