Jiang Shang sent a friend request to his old friend and formed another team. Then, he looked at the location of his teammates on the small map in the upper right corner of his vision and ran all the way …
There were many people in the City of Heaven's Chosen.
Among them, 99% were players, and most of them were newcomers to the open beta.
Everyone was full of curiosity and excitement. While studying the beginner's guide in the game system, they explored the unknown new world.
Jiang Shang squeezed into the crowd with great difficulty and found his old friend sitting in the same place, poking the ground with a long knife and looking amazed. He couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you in a daze for?"
Hearing Jiang Shang's voice, Ah Kai shook his head and sighed.
"I'm just lamenting the realism of this game. You're right, 'Cultivation Sect' and 'Elven Nation' are simply incomparable! This game is too detailed. Look … a grain of sand, a pinch of soil, is so realistic, let alone the five senses … "
"By the way, I just tasted the soil on the ground. It feels exactly like real soil, dry and astringent."
Jiang Shang was speechless.
He looked at his old friend dumbfoundedly and couldn't help but ridicule,
"So you've eaten soil before?"
"Cough, I was naughty when I was young … In fact, I just wanted to test how realistic it is. To be honest, if someone told me that I had transmigrated, I would believe it."
Ah Kai coughed twice and explained.
"Why else do you think it would be called a masterpiece that transcends its time?"
Jiang Shang smiled proudly and was in a very good mood.
For every game enthusiast, when the game they loved was recognized by others, they would feel joy from the bottom of their heart.
This was not limited to games but could be promoted to many other things.
This time, Ah Kai nodded, which was rare.
"It's indeed amazing. It beats other games in seconds."
"Yes, yes."
Jiang Shang nodded repeatedly.
"And everyone is handsome and beautiful. Not only is it pleasing to the eye, but it also has a strong sense of immersion …"
Ah Kai said again.
"Yes …"
Jiang Shang hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"The only pity is that I can't play female characters. It's so realistic. It's really a pity … I was looking forward to it."
Ah Kai stretched out his hands and touched his flat chest with a look of regret.
"…"
Jiang Shang's mouth twitched.
He looked at his friend, who had a serious expression on his face, and sighed.
"Ah Kai."
"What?"
"You won't be able to find a girlfriend like this."
"It's fine. I've done it before you anyway."
Jiang Shang was speechless.
The two of them ridiculed each other for a while before Ah Kai's gaze stopped on Jiang Shang's rough robe.
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Mage? You want to be a mage? "
"Damn, you're planning to become a Druid. You don't know this, but Druids are the real sons of this game. Other than their weak attack power, they can support and fight. They can also have a good relationship with NPCs. Monsters are easy to catch, and it's also convenient to become a Priest. They're practically invincible."
Jiang Shang smiled.
He was originally a video cloud player of "Elf Nation". After getting the open beta slot, he crazily read up on the strategy guide. Naturally, he had a preliminary understanding of each class.
Amongst them, the druid class, which had been unremarkable before, became his target after the appearance of the Magical Pet System and Megalosaurus companions, as well as the release of the priest class.
"Hmm? Then wouldn't it be a loss for me to choose the strength-type? "
Ah Kai was stunned and muttered to himself.
"The strength-type is okay. You never spend money when you play games. The strength-type equipment is the most approachable. It suits you quite well."
Jiang Shang shook his head.
Ah Kai liked fighting and PK. In terms of fighting alone, the strength-type was actually more powerful.
Perhaps the elven mage after the profession change was not bad. Some of them had learned rare skills such as bursting flames, and their output was even more explosive. However, explosive output was one thing, and fighting was another.
As he spoke, Jiang Shang seemed to have thought of something and added,
"Also, if you're not satisfied, there's another chance for a cross-domain profession change after level 11."
"That's good."
Ah Kai breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them chatted for a while and soon began to explore the game.
"So … are we going to follow the beginner's guide next?"
Ah Kai stood up and controlled the game interface while looking at the constantly flashing beginner's help.
His gaze wandered for a while and finally stopped at the image of the beginner's guide in "Elf Nation" …
It was an elven girl wearing glasses and dressed as a teacher. She had silver hair and purple eyes. She looked like a cute version of a goddess.
Ah Kai took a few glances and couldn't help but complain:
"I've read too much learning material. Now I can easily think of the wrong things when I look at this system guide elf …"
Jiang Shang was speechless.
He glanced at the system elf and coughed dryly.
"Ahem … This is a cute version of the goddess. It's said that it was added to the beginner's system after the open beta. I think it's quite cute. Oh right, it's said that after completing some hidden plots, you can also see a cute version of the goddess cheering. "
"It's quite cute. It's very suitable for an emoji pack and a head change method."
Ah Kai nodded.
Jiang Shang was speechless.
"So … are we going to follow the beginner's guide? It says that we can accumulate experience by building the City of Heaven's Chosen and participating in various daily activities … "
Ah Kai recited the beginner's guide.
After speaking, he looked around and couldn't help but complain:
"This city has been built well enough, right? What else do we need to build? "
"Of course, we need to expand."
Jiang Shang explained:
"The City of Heaven's Chosen is the player's main city in Elven Nation. It's all built by the players themselves. We have so many newcomers all at once. Even if we want to settle them down, we have to expand the main city. This is the most interesting part of Elven Nation. Everything can be freely designed by the players!"
"It's really troublesome."
"This is called freedom!"
After speaking, Jiang Shang continued:
"However, if you don't like it, you don't have to do it. Anyway, these things are almost all taken care of by the big guilds, especially the 'Mengmeng Committee', which is ranked second in terms of the number of guilds. It's said that 50% of the real estate in the City of Heaven's Chosen belongs to their guild."
"Wait … the real estate belongs to the player's guild?! Isn't this the game's main city? "
Ah Kai was stunned.
"That's why Elven Nation is different from other games. It's almost all simulation here, and the degree of freedom is very high. Not to mention real estate, there are also hotel chains among the players and chamber of commerce … Do you see those shops on the street? They're all old players' businesses. "
"Many old players have become 'bourgeoisie' in the game. People like us are 'penniless paupers' who have just entered the game. We still need to work hard."
Jiang Shang pointed to the street in the distance as he spoke.
Ah Kai was speechless.
"Then … isn't it too unfair for new players? Am I here to play RPGs or SimCity? "
"Pfft … If you really want to play Elven Nation as a simulation business, it's not impossible. Besides, how can there be an absolutely fair game? "
Jiang Shang shook his head.
After a pause, he added:
"Elven Nation doesn't do a good job of balancing the old and new players, but it doesn't force you to pay for it. As long as you work hard and work hard enough, even the latecomers can become stronger. To be honest, compared to many online games, it's already very conscientious, okay? "
"Of course, you also need a certain amount of luck."
Hearing his good friend's words, Ah Kai nodded:
"Understood. Then let's start now. Hurry up and do the mission to level up."
As he spoke, he began to check the mission recommendations in the novice guide.
However, Jiang Shang interrupted him:
"Actually, compared to the novice guide, I personally suggest that we directly teleport to Fei Lengcui to receive private missions from the NPC. It's said that in the early stages, the NPC's private missions are more cost-effective and have a chance of increasing favorability. Not to mention, there are too many people in the City of Heaven's Chosen now. There must be a queue to receive missions. "
"Fei Lengcui?"
Ah Kai raised his eyebrows.
"It can be considered as an NPC's main city. A large number of Elven NPCs live there. Many Elves can give out missions. If you're lucky and catch the eye of an Elf, you might even be accepted as a disciple."
"I heard that among the old players, there are lucky ones who were accepted as disciples by Elven Blacksmiths. Similarly, there are also Magic Inscriptionists and the like. Even if they weren't accepted as disciples by NPCs, it's said that there are lucky guys from the Elves."
Jiang Shang said.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry up and go! "
The two of them discussed and walked toward the teleportation portal to Fei Lengcui according to the small map.
The few main Elven cities in the Elven Forest had no level restrictions.
Therefore, the two of them smoothly passed through the teleportation portal and arrived at Fei Lengcui.
"Is this Fei Lengcui?"
Looking at the bustling scene that wasn't inferior to the City of Heaven's Chosen, Ah Kai's eyes flashed with a trace of amazement.
If it was said that the City of Heaven's Chosen's architectural style was mostly Bluestar, which made it feel familiar, then the Elven city of Fei Lengcui, which used white boulders as the foundation, was majestic and grand. Under the contrast of green trees and flowers, it revealed a bit of a dignified and elegant aura. It really gave Ah Kai an unprecedented foreign experience.
Unlike the City of Heaven's Chosen, which was full of players, many of the residents here were NPCs.
They were active and busy in the city. Whenever they met the eyes of the players, they would show a kind smile and a slight greeting.
Seeing a female Elf bow slightly to him, Ah Kai couldn't help but say,
"They seem to be very respectful to us?"
"Of course, because the players are the chosen ones. They are the ones who saved the Elven race and the Elven Forest."
Jiang Shang said.
After that, he added another sentence.
"However, although the NPCs are very respectful to us, we can't be presumptuous. In this game, it's very important to get along well with the NPCs. 'Elven Nation' has its own ecological environment, and the relationship between players and NPCs is also one of them. Although we're newcomers, we should maintain it well. "
Ah Kai listened and nodded in agreement.
"I understand, I understand. In fact, many of the Japanese games that I play are very focused on immersion, and … I personally like to immerse myself in games …"
Jiang Shang smiled.
"Well, then you'll definitely enjoy this game very much! Let's go and find the NPCs to ask for missions. Pay attention to the NPCs' templates. Only the white and blue NPCs can issue missions. If you're lucky enough to bump into the purple NPCs, you must hug their thighs! But no matter which one it is, remember to have a good attitude, and the success rate will be higher … "
The two of them discussed and walked around Fei Lengcui together, inquiring about private missions from the NPCs …
Three hours later …
"Sorry, Lord Chosen One, I've used up my mission quota for today. I can't give you any more missions."
A female Elf bowed slightly to the two of them and said apologetically.
Jiang Shang and Ah Kai looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
"Okay …"
"Sorry to disturb you …"
The female Elf left quickly, and the two of them sat on the ground. They looked at each other and saw a trace of absent-mindedness in each other's eyes.
"Ziya, how many are we now?"
"I didn't count, I think it's almost 30?"
"But in three hours, we only did one mission, and it was to help clean the toilets. Didn't you say that getting private missions from NPCs is the fastest way to level up?"
"That's what I thought! But who knew that there would be so many open beta players coming for NPCs! And there are so many old players doing NPCs' missions! "
"I think it's better to just do the daily quests in the City of Chosen …"
"Uh … let's try again. In front is the forge. There's an Elf Blacksmith there. It's said that if you have a good relationship with the NPCs, they'll even take in disciples! And they have a lot of missions, let's go and try! "
"Then … okay …"
The two of them stood up, patted the dirt off their butts, and walked toward the forge …
The forge was not small, and there were many Elves working in full swing inside. However, the two of them noticed that many of them had green IDs above their heads …
They were all players.
Ah Kai: …
Jiang Shang: …
"Ziya, I think you're one step behind again."
Jiang Shang: …
"How do you know if you don't try!"
Jiang Shang gritted his teeth, glanced around the forge, and finally stopped on an old Elf labeled as a white NPC by the game system.
It was an old Elf named Carlos Blaze. He was holding a sledgehammer and hammering a long sword.
He took a deep breath, smiled, and went forward to greet him.
But this time, the result was still disappointing.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chosen One."
Carlos shook his head apologetically:
"My apprentice quota for today has already been filled, and my mission quota has also been used up."
"Uh … okay, sorry to disturb you."
Jiang Shang showed a forced smile.
He stepped out of the forge and shook his head at Ah Kai.
The two of them looked at each other and sighed at the same time …
"Sigh … so difficult."
At this moment, a clear female voice suddenly came from behind them:
"It's like this when it's full of new players. Whether it's the City of Chosen One or here, it's not easy to find missions."
The two of them turned around curiously and saw a female player with blonde hair and blue eyes.
She was a Druid player, wearing a gorgeous silver-standard robe that was exceptionally domineering.
They subconsciously looked at the other party's ID.
Dream Han.
And it was silver-framed.
Silver …
Silver-framed …
Damn!
Oh my god!
Silver boss!
The two of them looked at each other and saw a trace of surprise and envy in each other's eyes.
Roar ~!
At this moment, a coquettish moan sounded. A charmingly naive brown-red magical beast with scales all over its body jumped out from the side and hugged the female player's thigh.
The female player's expression eased instantly.
She touched the scales on the other party's head while taking out a shiny ore and putting it into the other party's mouth.
"Katyusha, be good."
"Damn! Dragon? "
Jiang Shang's eyes widened.
This was no longer a big boss …
This was a big boss!
After feeding the baby dragon, the female player named Dream Han looked at the two of them again and smiled.
"Are you looking for missions?"
The two of them nodded like chicks pecking rice.
Big bosses … could also become thighs!
"I have one here, do you want to do it?"
Dream Han smiled.
"Big boss, you have a mission? Can players also give missions to other players? "
Jiang Shang was slightly taken aback.
"Of course players can't."
Dream Han shook her head.
"However, for newcomers, the fastest way to level up isn't to do missions, but to kill monsters with old players."
"If you can help me do some things, I can bring you along. I'm already level 42, even if I bring you to kill a Black Iron-level magical beast, it's enough for you two to jump directly to level 10. "
"How about it?"
Hearing the other party's words, Jiang Shang and Ah Kai looked at each other and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Deal!"
…
A few more hours later.
In Rivendell's mine …
"So …"
Ah Kai put down the iron pick in his hand and wiped the sweat on his head.
"It's my first day in the game, and I didn't do anything else but mine?"
"Cough, cough, don't be anxious … One can only rise above others after suffering the hardest! Once we dig enough ores that Dream Han needs, even if she brings us to fly in the wild, we'll be able to fly! "
Jiang Shang said.
"I understand the logic … but I have a question, doesn't Dream Han dig by herself? She's a silver player, so her efficiency should be higher than ours, right? "
"Damn, do you think it's more efficient for her to mine by herself or for us newcomers to mine and then bring me along to level up? With her level, I'm afraid she can even kill some weak silver magical beasts. "
"Hmm … what you said makes sense."
Ah Kai nodded.
"But, what can we do by mining …"
He was a little curious.
The other veteran gamers who were mining beside them laughed and said, "That's right.
"You don't know this."
"Some time ago, a big boss developed a new weapon — Magic Gun. It perfectly solved the problem of steam guns not being able to absorb experience!"
"The attack power of a Magic Gun is at least double that of a bow and arrow of the same level. Look, the archer profession is going to take off …"
"Magic Gun? But aren't archers Strength? "
Ah Kai was a little puzzled.
"Damn … that's true, but Elves are magical creatures. Archers also have magic power, but they walk the path of Strength."
"Although they don't have bonuses like spellcasters, archers can also learn meditation techniques and train their magic power. It's just that the efficiency is a little lower …"
"And it's said that after the silver profession change, archers can also practice both magic and martial arts. That's when the Magic Gun shines …"
"Right, not only archers, but even mage and druid players can use the Magic Gun to defend themselves."
The old player explained.
"I see."
Ah Kai nodded.
"But, what does this have to do with mining?"
He asked again.
The old player continued.
"Don't worry … let me finish."
"The Magic Ore here is one of the materials to make the Magic Gun …"
"Among the archer players, there is a large demand for the Magic Gun. The dwarves can't supply the materials, so it's up to the players to think of a way."
"The Meng Zhi Han you're talking about is the only player disciple of the elven blacksmith Carlos, as well as the first blacksmith among the players. She participated in improving the Magic Gun, so she has a need for these ores."
"It's a pity that the Elven Forest has too few coolies. Only salted life skill players like us would come here to mine, but it's far from enough ….."
"So, I came to find you."
Hearing the other player's explanation, the two of them nodded in understanding.
"So it's like this … …"
"Let's not talk anymore, let's work."
"Un."
They wiped their sweat and continued to swing their picks … …
… …
When night fell, the two of them finally returned to Fei Lengcui through the Rivendell Teleportation Formation.
What came back with them was a cart full of ores.
"You actually dug this much! It's been hard on you … … "
Seeing the two dusty rookies and noticing the cart full of ores, Meng Zhi Han let out a sigh.
After saying this, she thought for a bit before saying:
"How about this, I'll treat you tonight. I'll treat you to a good meal, don't refuse."
Hearing the other side's words, Jiang Shang and Ah 'Kai felt a bit hungry.
They swallowed their saliva and nodded.
Then, a light flashed in Meng Zhi Han's hand and all the ores disappeared.
Space items!
Their eyes lit up again and their faces were filled with envy.
Too big … …
The difference was too big!
At this moment, they had never had such a strong desire to become a big shot player in « Elven Kingdom »!
Meng Zhi Han's treat was in the City of Heaven's Chosen.
Along with her was another good friend, a very good-looking female Priestess player.
ID Ruffian.
She was also a big shot with a young dragon.
Facing two female players, especially big shots among the players, Jiang Shang and Ah 'Kai were a bit reserved.
But after getting to know each other, they gradually let go.
Dinner was the Elven Forest's unique barbecue. Together with the elves' flower wine, it tasted very good.
The two open beta rookies ate heartily, feeling very happy.
The four of them ate while chatting, gradually becoming familiar with each other.
"So it's the big shot of the Nature's Heart guild, this is « Elven Kingdom »'s number one guild!"
"I wonder when we can become Silver Players … …"
The two of them were filled with envy.
"There's a chance. Although the Silver Level isn't completely open, there will be new slots every once in a while. As long as you work hard, you'll have a chance."
Meng Zhi Han explained.
"Ha, ha, when you reach level 11, welcome to the Nature's Heart guild! Hei, hei, hei, when the time comes, big sister will protect you. If you want to become a priest, just come find big sister, I'll take care of it! "
Ruffian chewed on a skewer with a greasy face and giggled as she spoke.
