On the second day after the Apothecary Trial was released, a strange scene appeared in the Mansion of the Dead.
The players were holding thick books in their hands and reading them seriously with their heads down. They looked like they were studying hard and making progress every day.
Even the way they communicated with each other had changed.
Passerby A: "Brother, where are we going to level up today?"
Passerby B: "No, don't disturb my study!"
Passerby A: "Brother, I found an island in the Void Ocean today. There might be treasures on it!"
Passerby B: "No, don't disturb my study!"
Passerby A: "Brother, we haven't farmed the dungeon today. It's time to go!"
Passerby B: "No, don't disturb my study!"
…
What was even more ridiculous was that there was a group of players who hated studying during their school days. However, in order to advance to the Apothecary class, they all became obedient children who loved to study. They would often gather together to discuss the contents of Apothecary books.
According to a certain player, if he had been as hardworking as he was now when he was studying, he might have been admitted to Tsinghua University.
Faced with the uncompromising officials, the players had no choice but to study hard. After all, there were no shortcuts this time. The only way to become an Apothecary was to study hard.
Because of this, a large number of players gave up their daily activities such as fighting monsters, farming spiritual materials, fishing, and so on, and immersed themselves in the sea of knowledge.
This behavior of the players was even recorded into a video by a player and posted on the most popular game video portal in the country, Shark. It also caused a heated discussion among external netizens.
[There's no future in playing games. Look at the high-quality players of Battle Online, we only love to study (righteous emoji)]
In the video, there were figures of players holding books and memorizing them in every corner of the Mansion of the Dead. Some of the players who gathered together to discuss had different opinions about the contents of the books. They argued until their faces were red, just like scholars.
The players who had never played Battle Online before were dumbfounded by what they saw.
Sword Dancing in the World: "I've always heard that Battle Online is a magical game. This time, I'm completely convinced. Isn't learning in the game asking for trouble? (dumbfounded emoji)"
MC Player: "I'm trembling. Is this game so scary that it can convert a group of gamers who love games into learning?!"
Lazy cancer patient: Pfft! I was taking a sip of water when I watched the video, and I couldn't help but spit it out. This was just too amazing. When I was in school, those students who didn't get good grades had neglected their studies because they were addicted to gaming. This was the first time I saw someone who loved studying because they were addicted to gaming. Sure enough, the players of Battle Royale couldn't be measured with common sense.
One Sword Breaks Mountains and Rivers: "Can we say that Battle Online has forcibly raised the quality of domestic players? Hahaha!"
Spring Water Commander: "This is insane. How did Battle Online do it?" His curiosity was overflowing …
Crayon _ Shinchan replied to the Spring Water Commander: "I'm just passing by ~ Battle Online players are passionate about learning. Don't guess or doubt, we're just trying to enrich our experience and improve our self-restraint (laughing emoji)."
…
Compared to the heated discussions in the external forums, the discussions in Battle's official forum were much more heated.
This time, the content of the discussion was no longer miscellaneous game content. It was all posts asking questions or expressing their own views on the content of the book.
With nearly 30 million players vying for 10,000 spots, the acceptance rate was even lower than that of a civil servant.
However, the players did not give up. They all wanted to give it a try because they were all equal in this trial. All of them were starting from scratch and had no foundation to speak of.
However, the obscure alchemy books still tortured them to death. Many players could not progress at all if they did not discuss and verify with each other.
At this moment, the players even had the urge to kill the developers of Battle Online.
They could not understand why the mastermind behind Battle Online would write these three books just to torture them. They must be really bored to a certain extent.
If they had so much free time, why didn't they research and develop more game functions that would help the players develop? This was what all the players were thinking.
What made them even more frustrated was that the contents of these books were quite reasonable. Some players who studied medicine even found that many of the contents in the books could be verified in reality.
Although they could not find spiritual materials in reality, some of the viewpoints in the books were really empathizing with them.
At this moment, the players once again confirmed their speculation. The members of the development team behind Battle Online were all monsters. They were the terrifying type.
This was because the knowledge reflected in the game actually covered all fields, from the initial combat skills in reality to the current situation. The players were shocked again and again with the facts.
Therefore, during this period of time, the players gave the mysterious team behind Battle Online a name, "The Devil Group", meaning that everyone in the team was a devil level genius.
Faced with the abuse of the Devil Group, the players could not resist and could only passively indulge in learning.
Of course, during these three days of learning, there was also a group of players who were really addicted to learning.
At the beginning, this group of players could be said to have forced themselves to learn. After all, in their opinion, how profound could the books in the game be?
However, reality proved them wrong. They were ridiculously wrong. Although there were only three books, they felt that they would not be able to digest the content in detail even after a few months.
These serious players were completely addicted to it and even began to practice. Relying on the content in the books and the spiritual materials in the game, they began experimenting with alchemy in advance.
The result was, of course, appalling. Without rich experience and corresponding knowledge, refining medicine was not something that could be achieved with just good luck.
However, since ancient times, there had never been a lack of people with a one-track mind. Most of the players gave up on experimenting, but some of the players did not give up and continued to experiment.
On the third day, there was even a player who successfully refined an elixir using the common fire in the game, completely shocking the entire Battle Online gaming circle.
[First-class Azure Spirit Pill (Inferior)]:
Elixir Details: Beginner Elixir with too many impurities inside. Consuming it is risky.
Elixir Effect: 30% chance of permanently increasing Strength by 1 point. 70% chance of being poisoned and losing health continuously (5 drops per second). This elixir can permanently increase the Strength attribute of the player by 10 points. Once the attribute increase reaches 10 points, the player will develop immunity to this elixir.
Alchemist's Seal: Rising Wind (Player)
The appearance of this elixir could be said to have made the players go crazy.
This was because the players knew that the elixir produced by the Alchemist had the effect of permanently increasing attributes.
What kind of concept was this? This meant that the future of the Alchemist was limitless!
The value of this kind of permanently increasing attribute elixir was obvious. Moreover, as the Alchemist's level increased, they would definitely be able to refine more powerful permanently increasing attribute elixir.
The appearance of this elixir had also stunned the players who were still training and killing monsters, thinking that the Alchemist had no future.
At this moment, they were all wailing, feeling that they had lost a chance to make a comeback and rise.
Therefore, a large group of players who wanted to cram at the last minute swarmed into the Mansion of the Dead, joining the ranks of those who wanted to change their fate by reading.
The sound of reading echoed in the sky above the Mansion of the Dead. It was completely sleepless.
Training, Instance Dungeons, exploration … None of this mattered anymore.
At this moment, the players only wanted to learn. Even the gods could not stop them!
