Gale was a very strange player.
That was what Salty Meow thought.
At first, she thought that Gale was the kind of person who liked the scenery.
But soon, Gale's actions made her overturn her previous conjecture.
Gale did not excitedly look for beautiful scenery to take pictures with, nor did she ask her where the most beautiful scenery was.
This made Salty Meow, who was half a Life Profession Player, unable to use all the good ideas she had.
However, Gale seemed to have a special liking for the food in this world.
Along the way, whenever she saw something she was interested in, she would stop and try it.
It was as if she was a traveler who had not tasted good food for a long time.
Furthermore, she seemed to be familiar with this world. Although Salty Meow could not explain why, she just had this feeling.
Perhaps … it was the feeling of freedom that Gale felt when she was playing.
There was no restraint, and there was no excitement of coming to a new world. It was as if she was strolling in her own backyard …
Hmm … I must be overthinking.
Salty Meow shook her head.
However, she was even more curious about Gale.
This strange player was very gentle, and there was always a faint smile on her face. Especially when she saw the players who were excitedly completing missions, her smile seemed to become even gentler.
She also liked to walk around. Salty Meow accompanied her for a long time, and she kept strolling around.
It seemed that … she enjoyed this stroll.
"Do you like the feeling of strolling around?"
In the end, Salty Meow could not help but ask her curiosity.
Hearing Salty Meow's question, Gale turned around, and her emerald eyes shone with a profound light.
She put a small red berry into her mouth, and her voice was ethereal.
"I like this feeling of freedom."
Freedom …
Salty Meow's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, she suddenly thought of herself in the real world.
Vaguely, she also felt a sense of resonance.
However, at this moment, Gale seemed to be even more mysterious in her heart.
"She is like … like a princess who sneaked out of a castle …"
For some reason, Salty Meow had such a thought.
She felt that she must have read too many fairy tales!
However, as soon as this thought popped up in her mind, she felt that the other party was indeed very suitable for this role …
Although he only used the most basic system character.
But it couldn't hide the mystery and nobility of Feng …
Although it was close at hand,
However, the wind gave people the feeling that it would leave in the next second and return to its own place …
It was as if she had never belonged here.
She also didn't seem to have any intention of truly fitting in here.
Her world, her future, did not seem to be here.
She was like a lonely wanderer who only wanted to rest and take a break.
Soon, she would set off again …
She must be very lonely, right?
With that in mind, Salty Meow hesitated for a moment before inviting him.
"That … Tonight, we will be holding a large bonfire party to welcome new players in the square. Do you … want to join us?"
After hearing Salty Meow's words, Feng was slightly startled.
A bright light flashed in her eyes, and then she nodded gently.
"Alright."
…
Night fell quickly.
Under the lead of the First Beta Gamers, the second Closed Beta Gamers were gradually familiar with the gameplay of "Elven Nation."
While praising the game for its well-deserved reputation, they also accepted the invitations of the veteran gamers.
It was unknown when the bonfire party had become the norm for "Elven Nation" celebrations.
A four-meter-tall pile of firewood was placed in the middle of the square and was lit amidst cheers and whistles.
The blazing flames were at least seven to eight meters high, illuminating the entire square.
The First Beta Gamers set up a long banquet in the square. The ingredients were various berries from the Elven Forest, as well as some nameless nuts that tasted good. There was also delicious meat that was barbecued after hunting Magical Beasts.
Of course, the meat was placed in a hidden location to avoid being seen by Alice and Basaka. Otherwise, they would be reprimanded.
In addition, some gamers obtained honey from the forest and brewed honey tea with a plant that looked like the Bluestar chrysanthemum.
The gamers gathered in twos and threes with their arms around each other's shoulders.
Some players specially created board games. A group of people gathered together, playing and laughing happily.
Some Closed Beta Gamers figured out the PK system in the square. They used their Contribution Points to engage in PK. Their magic and sword skills were dazzling and attracted the cheers of the gamers. The eyes of the new Second Beta Gamers lit up at the sight of their recklessness and valiance.
Some veteran gamers used wood and Magical Beasts' hair to make homemade guitars. They played and sang at the same time, causing the gamers to whistle and clap …
The entire square was immersed in a festive atmosphere.
Salty Meow Breeze sat on a square mat made of rattan. She was savoring the delicacies of the banquet while admiring the magnificent scenery in the square.
Breeze's expression was gentle.
Her eyes sparkled under the illumination of the fire. It was like the surface of a lake under the sunlight.
Looking at her focused expression, the corners of Little Salty Meow's mouth gradually rose.
"The degree of freedom in this game is very high, so … as long as it's something that we want to do, we can do it. We've held such a bonfire party many times since the server launched … "
Little Salty Meow stretched, took a sip of the sweet honey tea, and said with a smile, "That's right.
"It's interesting. Logically speaking, many of us don't like to socialize in real life … but we fell in love with the bonfire party in the game. "
Feng didn't say anything. Instead, he sat beside her and ate some fruits while quietly listening to her.
"Many of my members told me that they're introverted people in real life …"
Salty Meow was in a trance as he spoke.
"But … it's different here."
Looking at the joyful smiling faces, her expression gradually softened.
"When they told me at first, I was quite surprised. Because in my eyes, everyone is quite extroverted and passionate. I really can't imagine that many people are dull and introverted in real life. "
"In the past, someone told me … that many people don't like to socialize. In fact, it's not because they're introverted, but because they've seen through the tricks of the world in real life. They hate those hypocritical, superficial, and useless interactions …"
"Compared to pretending to be polite, they prefer to stay in their own little world."
"But this doesn't mean that they really don't like to interact with others. They just don't know the right person."
"People who aren't on the same channel won't be able to talk together …"
"People who have the same frequency will eventually meet even if they cross mountains and valleys. People who don't have the same magnetic field will eventually be together."
"In the past, I didn't know the meaning of these words, and I didn't agree with them."
"But after coming to this game, I think … I finally understand the meaning of these words."
As he spoke, Salty Meow finished the honey tea in his cup in one gulp. A sweet smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Here, everyone has found their home … There's no need to hide themselves, and there's no need to hide their thoughts. Everyone seems to have started a new and unrestrained life."
"Perhaps … this is the charm of this game."
After a moment, Salty Meow sighed.
"This game … really has a different kind of magic. Sometimes, I really hope that this isn't a game, but a real world."
"I really want to say thank you to the people who developed this game."
"Thank you … they've painted another beautiful life for us …"
"Bam —!"
"Bam —!"
"…"
A series of loud noises interrupted Salty Meow's narration.
The two of them subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the sky.
There, "fireworks" cast by magic were blooming one after another …
It was colorful and very beautiful.
The brilliance of magic was reflected in Salty Meow's pupils, shining brightly.
Just like how she was feeling at the moment.
Feng turned her head sideways. Her gaze paused on Salty Meow's side profile, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"You really like this game."
Salty Meow looked at the magic fireworks and nodded vigorously. His voice was firm.
"Of course!"
"As long as you like it."
Feng smiled, then stood up gently.
Seeing Feng suddenly stand up, Salty Meow was slightly stunned.
"You … where are you going?"
"It's getting late. I should go back."
Feng said.
