Saturday, sunny.
It was rare for Xu Ge to wake up early and finish the homework that he did not finish last night.
It could not be helped. High school was like this. There was a lot of homework. Although it was said to reduce the workload, the homework kept increasing …
Xu Ge was never a lazy person. Although he also hated homework, he also hoped to get into a good university in the future.
In this world, only a relatively fair method like the college entrance examination could change the fate of ordinary people.
This was what Xu Ge's father taught him.
Although Xu Ge always talked back, he still agreed with this principle.
Those who did not receive a good education were only a small minority of the lucky ones. In most cases, the path of an ordinary person's life was decided the moment after the college entrance examination.
Unless you spent more effort than you did in high school, it was difficult to change the direction of the future, especially in today's world where social classes were becoming more and more rigid …
Therefore, although he liked to play, Xu Ge was never careless in his studies.
The homework on the weekend was enough to make people vomit blood.
However, Xu Ge believed that after today, he would have plenty of time to do his homework.
As if he thought of something, he smiled slightly.
"After today, I will have at least 42 hours a day!"
That's right, Xu Ge had already thought about it. In the future, he would spend every night in "Elf Nation" and do his homework in it!
After he finished writing in the game, he would just copy the answers in reality. If necessary, it could also help with his revision.
Convenient!
As for why he wanted to finish in advance this time, it was because the teenager was full of anticipation and wanted to have fun on the first weekend.
It was better not to bring homework in the first time.
Annoying.
He made lunch himself. It could not be helped. The teenager's parents were busy with work. Even on weekends, they would leave early and return late.
Scrambled eggs with tomatoes and white rice was Xu Ge's favorite. Because he was in a good mood, he ate two more bowls.
After lunch, he also ate a sweet pear, which was given by Zhao Linqian from across the street.
They were old neighbors and had known each other since kindergarten. For more than ten years, it was common for the two families to send each other gifts …
They were the legendary childhood sweethearts.
"See you later in the game!"
When she gave him the pear, the girl smiled sweetly.
Perhaps Xu Ge's words had come true, and this guy had really been chosen.
This was really rare. Xu Ge remembered that when the registration deadline was approaching, the number of people who had signed up for "Elf Nation" had already exceeded 40 million … And this was because the registration was only limited to one day. If the registration period was longer, there would definitely be more people.
A 4.5% chance of winning was quite impressive.
"Could it be that they really chose players based on their gaming skills?"
Xu Ge muttered.
She took a short nap after the meal, but she didn't fall asleep.
He couldn't help it. He was too excited.
Since its release, Elven Nation had swept through the entire virtual online gaming world. Although there were only a total of over 300,000 players, almost everyone on the internet knew about it.
In particular, the Harvest Festival in the game had pushed the popularity of Elven Nation to a new peak. The video of the Elves performing the Ritual Dance during the festival had long been flooded with videos on major video websites.
The dance section of the bullet screen website had been filled with imitation videos of the Ritual Dance recently. Unfortunately, no matter how good the UP Master was at dancing, he couldn't bring out the ethereal and dreamy feeling of the Elves in the game …
Xu Ge suspected that it had something to do with physique. According to the players in the game, the Elves' bodies were much stronger and more flexible than humans. They could easily jump one or two meters with just one jump …
It was no wonder that even though there were no keyboards and spaces, the players in the game still walked with strange movements. This kind of experience that was different from reality was something that everyone liked to try.
Since he couldn't take a nap, the young man simply lay down in his stealth cabin and watched the walkthrough videos of Elven Nation online. This was considered as preparation for entering the game.
Elven Nation didn't have an account that was canceled or rebuilt. It was extremely important to think about how to develop in the future.
If he chose the wrong direction for his class change or chose the wrong skill, he could only wait until the next class change to adjust.
When watching the video, time passed very quickly.
Unknowingly, the view on the timer in the stealth cabin had already reached two in the afternoon.
At this time, it was also the time for the open beta of Elven Nation to be released.
Xu Ge couldn't wait to open "Elven Kingdom" that he had already loaded and started this virtual online game that had a good reputation.
"Starting the game, « Elven Nation »!"
[Ding.]
[Game successfully connected … …]
[Discovered a new version … …]
[Version updating … …]
[Ding, update successful.]
[Loading the game … …]
[Loading successful.]
With the soft sound of the system, Xu Ge's vision suddenly turned dark.
"It's here!"
He was invigorated.
Melodious music began to play. It was the Elven style music that Xu Ge would play every night when he went to sleep.
With the beautiful melody, Xu Ge entered the character creation interface.
It was the same as the walkthrough, he could only choose the Elven race. However, he could adjust the Elven hair and eye colour to change the Elven race … …
Although he heard that players didn't care about this and would usually choose according to their own preferences, according to the walkthrough, choosing a different hair and eye colour would secretly affect the element you were good at … …
For example, red would lean towards the fire element, gold would lean towards the light element, and black would lean towards the dark element … …
Although it wasn't absolute, it did have an effect.
This was something that the players had gradually discovered and it wasn't officially recognized.
However, although there were many hair colours to choose from, the favourite silver colour of the players in other online games didn't exist.
It was said that this was because in the settings of the game, silver hair represented royalty.
This year's Ben Zi Shen's hair was also silver.
Xu Ge felt that it was a pity. No matter if the Chong people were real or fake, he still liked the silver colour.
It would be even better if it was scarlet eyes.
After thinking for a while, Xu Ge chose the hair colour to be gold and the eye colour to be emerald.
It was said that this was the colour of the Gale Tribe's Elves. After choosing it, one would have good growth in the light element, nature, and life domain.
The reason why Xu Ge chose this was because he was planning to walk on the "Paladin Style" that had recently become popular in « Elven Nation » … …
To put it bluntly, it was to walk on the strength path, become a Weapon Master, and then become a Priest.
It could attack, heal, defend, and support, it could be considered a jack of all trades.
Especially in the battlefield missions that were becoming more and more popular. The environment was changing and the enemies were random. This kind of all rounded job was very popular.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the Priest profession was suitable … …
Xu Ge had done his homework in advance to understand this.
As for the face creation, he was already prepared. He directly copied and pasted the high rating data that he had searched on the internet … …
The face creation system in « Elven Nation » could not create an identical face, but on the basis of the high rating data, he could guarantee a high rating and easily obtain a cool and handsome face.
Of course, it was inevitable that the face would be similar to the original data. It was like a brother. Xu Ge had even heard of an NPC making a mistake because of this. This could be considered as a reflection of the meticulous ingenuity of « Elven Nation ».
Because some bloggers shared the high appearance data, it was common for similar "internet celebrity faces" to appear in « Elven Nation ».
However, Xu Ge did not care.
It was fine as long as he was handsome. Who cared if he was similar or not? Weren't the little fresh meats in the entertainment industry carved from the same mold? Weren't they all called little brothers by their fans?
Xu Ge was quite disappointed that he could not choose a female character.
As a young man who liked to open a female account in any online game, he preferred to look at a girl's back rather than a man's butt. It felt like he was raising a daughter …
Not to mention, « Elven Nation » was said to be extremely realistic. He was really curious about what it would be like to play the game with a girl's body.
A 16-year-old boy would always have some wonderful longing and curiosity for the opposite sex.
There was a saying that the gender dividends of men and women were opposites. Therefore, men would often have longing and envy for women when they were young, while women would, in turn, yearn for some of the convenience and advantages of men as they grew older … …
After setting everything, Xu Ge thought about it and named his ID "Yay Yay". Then, he officially entered the game with a sinister laugh … …
His consciousness sank and his vision changed.
Xu Ge, who always watched game videos, knew that the opening cinematic was coming.
Melodious and classical elven music sounded, and the story of the elves slowly unfolded … …
Xu Ge had already seen this opening plot countless times before entering the game, so he could not wait to skip it.
However, before he skipped, the scene changed, and Xu Ge found that the opening plot seemed to be different from what he had seen before …
It did not start with the traditional revival of the goddess, but with a magnificent city as the starting point.
That city was called the City of Heaven's Chosen.
The view increased, and the majestic World Tree entered the scene. The magnificent city was as small as an ant under the majestic World Tree.
The contrast between the two gave him a strong sense of impact … …
The view continued to increase, and he was slightly dazed.
Then, a magnificent palace appeared in the scene.
The palace was surrounded by countless bright stars, and at the entrance of the palace stood two sacred and majestic angels … …
Golden artistic words appeared in the view, annotating the name of the palace.
This palace was called the Pantheon Palace.
The palace door gradually opened, and the view entered the palace.
Inside the palace, there were many magnificent divine thrones placed on the table.
The palace was brightly lit, and the light flickered.
One sacred and majestic figure after another appeared in the palace.
The gods had descended.
The silver-haired, purple-eyed goddess Eve appeared in the palace and sat on her divine throne under the gaze of tens of thousands of people.
Looking at the goddess, whose image was exceptionally outstanding even among the true gods, Xu Ge subconsciously stopped the fast-forward.
Then, the scene changed to the goddess's killing spree in the sealing war.
She shone brilliantly and majestically.
She was like the light in the darkness, attracting everyone's attention.
In the distance, the player army was like an unstoppable torrent, fighting with the dark and oppressive devil army.
Skills flashed, and arrows scattered.
The battle of flesh and blood vividly displayed the bloody cruelty of the magical medieval war, but in the midst of the slaughter, there was a charming and violent beauty.
The deafening battle cries and the clashing of weapons made these scenes come to life, as if they were happening in front of him.
Finally, the light illuminated the world, and the evil slowly retreated … …
The whole world first turned into a vast expanse of white, and then slowly fell into darkness again.
In Xu Ge's view, two lines of beautiful artistic words appeared:
"The horn is blown, the battle of gods and demons begins."
"The Elven Kingdom expansion pack: The War of Gods and Demons is officially online!"
The interlude plot ended here.
The music suddenly changed and became hot-blooded and high-spirited.
But while the passion was surging, there was also a trace of solemnity.
This was the background music for the goddess's appearance on the battlefield of the Elven Kingdom. It was called "For the Glory of the Goddess."
Since it first appeared in the Elven Kingdom more than 20 days ago, it quickly dominated all the pure music charts and became the preferred battle song for many online games.
Listening to this battle song, the young and energetic Xu Ge subconsciously felt his blood boil until an ethereal, sacred, and amiable voice sounded:
"Welcome, the Chosen One from the alternate world."
It was the goddess Eve.
This popular faction leader would personally bless every player when they logged into the game for the first time.
She was like a guide for the players.
Looking at the beautiful figure that appeared in front of him, Xu Ge couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and even his face couldn't help but blush.
Beautiful … …
She was too beautiful!
Even if he had seen countless videos of the goddess, even if he had seen countless pictures of the goddess, and even if he had secretly looked up information about the goddess on the pink app countless times … … But at this moment, seeing her in the game, Xu Ge was still greatly shocked.
Because the effect of seeing with his own eyes was much higher than screenshots and videos!
Perception came from the information obtained.
Pictures only recorded images, and videos only recorded sounds and movements. But in fact, some of the feelings of other senses couldn't be recorded and conveyed by pictures and videos.
For example, the moment he saw the goddess, Xu Ge inexplicably felt a kind of spiritual peace, and at the same time, he couldn't help but have an impulse to worship her … …
For example, being illuminated by the goddess's light, Xu Ge felt a warm feeling all over his body, making him feel a kind of cleansing, purifying, and warm satisfaction and happiness from his body to his soul … …
Looking at the goddess smiling at him in his field of vision, Xu Ge, who had never been interested in the three-dimensional world, suddenly felt that the three-dimensional world didn't seem to be so hopeless.
However, he subconsciously forgot that he was also in the game now.
"Who can stand this … …"
At this moment, this was the only thought in the youth's mind.
In a daze, under the goddess's guidance, he chose a strength-based profession, and was randomly given two skills, "Identify" and "Triple Slash" by the goddess. Xu Ge reluctantly pressed the option to officially enter the game … …
His field of vision suddenly turned dark, and the feeling of weightlessness came again.
It was as if he had passed through an invisible barrier, or as if he had taken a poor-quality elevator and the moment the elevator suddenly stopped, a slight dizziness came to his brain.
The next moment, Xu Ge felt that he was standing on the ground.
His field of vision suddenly brightened, and it was a vast expanse of whiteness. The pure and fresh air refreshed his heart, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
At the same time, a faintly discernible fragrance drifted into his nostrils, like some kind of barbecue. In addition, there was the wheat fragrance of bread and a faint milk fragrance, making the youth, who had only eaten a little more than an hour ago, feel hungry again.
It was fragrant.
Faint voices of conversation and hawking came to his ears, and there seemed to be some roaring sounds like livestock. If he listened carefully, there seemed to be the sound of iron being forged, and the sound of carriages … …
Although his field of vision had not yet recovered, in Xu Ge's mind, he had already outlined the scene of a bustling and lively medieval city.
Cheerful elven songs sounded, and his field of vision finally returned to normal.
A city that was far richer, more beautiful, and more dreamy than he had imagined came into view.
Rows upon rows of buildings, lush flowers and plants, neat and tidy stone and brick roads, as well as the elves coming and going on the road, and the magic beasts they rode or led … …
And Xu Ge, who had just descended, appeared on such a noisy street.
This was the main city of "Elven Nation," the City of Heaven's Chosen.
Although he had seen it countless times in videos, his heart was still full of shock when he came here in person.
"The City of Heaven's Chosen! This is the City of Heaven's Chosen! "
He talked to himself excitedly.
No one paid attention to Xu Ge's arrival.
In fact, at this very moment, similar arrivals were happening all over the City of Heaven's Chosen, and the players had long been accustomed to it.
The mission rewards for the novice guide had long been ignored by the wily old foxes. Only some players who had nothing better to do and wanted to guide new players would observe the city and look for pleasing rookies.
Unfortunately, most of them were paying attention to girls.
In online games, girls were more eye-catching than guys, let alone in a gender-binding game like "Elven Nation."
And just as Xu Ge was looking around curiously and excitedly, the penguin voice chat in the background rang … …
It was Zhao Linqian.
Xu Ge smiled, opened the system interface, pulled out the penguin software in the background, and connected to the voice chat.
"Hello? Miss Zhao? You're online? "
"I'm still pinching my face, wait for me for a while!"
Xu Ge was speechless.
He suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Then hurry up! I'll walk around the city and explore it. "
He said.
The girl replied confidently,
"No problem, I'll be quick! Well, tell me your ID first, I'll note it down and add you later. "
Xu Ge subconsciously wanted to reply, but his heart suddenly moved, and he smiled.
"I'll send it to you on penguin, I'm afraid you'll make a mistake."
After saying that, he sent his ID over.
A moment later …
"Yeah?"
The girl's curious voice came from the system.
"Hey, good girl!"
Xu Ge agreed.
Zhao Linqian was speechless.
"Climb."
She hung up the voice chat.
