This time, the chat room 2.0 was a comprehensive upgrade. It did not bring a lot of content. It was nothing more than a UI update, an increase in the shop exchange, and a change in the recruitment mode. That was all.
However, the overall changes were huge, especially the Hero Mode. It would probably be something completely different from the past. The group members had a heated discussion about it. But no matter what, before experiencing it for themselves, it was just a test of their brains. A test of their brains meant a few random guesses and could not be used as a basis for reality.
Other than that, what made Tang Hao feel the biggest change was one word — professionalism.
That's right, professionalism.
Although the chat room was on the right track in the past, it still felt a little random in many aspects. It was like a small workshop put together by a grassroots team. It was not very formal. Take the Teleportation Value for example. Although it was affected by the Reputation Value, the specific amount was not announced, which gave people a perfunctory feeling. But now, the specific value was announced, which made it seem very professional and formal.
Of course, this professionalism would inevitably form a hidden framework. It was similar to a company's system. Everything had to be carried out within the rules. But in general, this was also an inevitable development. It was impossible to say that there would be too many restrictions. After all, as long as an old salted fish completed a mission, even if they did nothing else in the future, they would still be able to get a certain amount of benefits.
If they wanted to get more things, they would have to put in more effort. Wasn't it a matter of course?
At least from Tang Hao's point of view, this formalization was more conducive to the development of the chat room.
After that, everyone's attention was divided into two groups. One group rushed to the shop, and the other focused on the breakdown of the recruitment mode. For people like Amethyst and Kaguya, the level 2 shop was not enough to catch their attention.
Tang Hao also went to look at the shop. Indeed, the number of items that could be exchanged had increased a lot. It looked like a dazzling array of items. There were quite a few good items, but he was still hesitant about whether he should exchange for them. After all, his current Reputation value was not much. Perhaps raising the level of the group members was more important … Let's put it aside for now and look at it later.
That's right!
Tang Hao's eyes suddenly lit up. He waved at Yu Ji who was sitting next to him.
"What's wrong?" Yu Ji walked over in confusion.
"Let me show you a treasure." Tang Hao smiled mysteriously and opened the friend mode.
"This … this is the chat room?" In the past, she could not see the chatroom. When Tang Hao was happily chatting in the chatroom, she could only see a lonely panel, and as time passed, she lost much interest. But now, all of this was no longer a secret, and the rapidly scrolling subtitles in the public channel gave her a novel feeling.
"Well, the chatroom has been upgraded …" Tang Hao explained.
"I see." Yu Ji thought to herself, since the chat room has opened the friend mode, then even if I return to Chaldea, I can still see Tang Hao through Roman's chat room … Hey, wait! Am I friends with Roman?
No matter how she thought about it, Yu Ji couldn't associate Roman with the word friend. In the end, she hated humans, so it was impossible for her to have friends.
"Wait, what do they want to do?" Suddenly, Yu Ji pointed to a sentence in the public channel and blinked curiously.
"Oh —" Tang Hao also saw it and immediately laughed, "There's a good show to watch."
The person who spoke just now was Yukina. She had once recruited Miyamori Kui with Megumi Kato, and was already a beginner player. Although her prestige was not enough, she could exchange for one thing from the shop for free. She chose the skill – Reinforced Iron Bones.
For people like Tang Hao, this skill was something that could be done without, but for ordinary people, it was a very powerful enhancement. Ba Yunzi had analyzed it before, and it could increase a person's physical fitness by one to two times that of a normal person.
Especially Yukina, her physical fitness was originally worse than ordinary people. In order to make up for the shortcomings of basic physical strength, she also went to learn Aikido, so it was natural for her to exchange for this skill.
Perhaps the benefits exceeded expectations, causing Yukina to be a little arrogant, coupled with someone's encouragement, she took the initiative to be the first to challenge the practice level.
The so-called practice level was not limited to any world. It was just a battlefield created by the chat room through virtual space. When the group members clicked to enter, they would not really enter the battlefield, only their own consciousness would be immersed in it … In fact, it was just like the virtual reality games in online games.
Therefore, even if they were killed in the practice level, it would not lead to death in reality.
When Yukina entered the practice level, Kaguya, who wanted to see the world in chaos, immediately opened the video for her.
The video showed a modern city filled with smoke. Yukina was standing in the middle of the city's streets. Training hadn't started yet, so the background was rather blurry. However, judging from the smoke in the air and the slow moving silhouettes in the background, this city was most likely the one she was looking at.
Sure enough …
A clear subtitle immediately appeared in the center of the video.
[This battlefield was taken from one of the scenes of Resident Evil. The crisis of the biochemical virus has engulfed all of humanity. There is no one alive in the city, only endless zombies. You only have half an hour left, please try your best to survive.]
"Zombie … zombies?"
Yukina, who also saw this subtitle, immediately trembled, and her face showed the intention to retreat.
As a young lady, she was more or less a clean freak. She had watched zombie movies before, but she did not like them, because in her eyes, there was only horror and disgust. Even if it was on the big screen, she would be afraid. She did not dare to imagine how scared she would be if she encountered zombies in reality.
But she had never thought that this training checkpoint would be zombies.
Could it be that the practice level would deliberately target the challenger's weakest spot?
Yukina instinctively thought, and then subconsciously looked down at her chest …
"What does this line of sight suddenly move down mean?" Tang Hao's voice rang beside her ear in an unseemly manner, "Shiwana-chan, are you afraid? But it doesn't matter, there are only two results in the training level, either you die or you win. It's a big problem, it's useless even if you're afraid. "
"You're crazy, who would be afraid!"
Yukina's face blushed, and immediately raised her head. Although she was indeed very afraid, after hearing what Tang Hao said, she had to complete this challenge no matter what.
[In the training level, there may be some bloody and disgusting scenes that will make the challenger uncomfortable. Do you want to activate Harmony Mode?]
[Note: In Harmony Mode, pain will be blocked, all bloody and disgusting scenes will be censored.]
There was such a function?
Yukina was instantly overjoyed, and without hesitation, she activated Harmony Mode.
"Damn! How can you activate Harmony Mode, we're all adults, be serious! "Tang Hao complained.
"Sorry, I'm still underage!" Yukina retorted proudly, and then she pressed the training button on the virtual screen.
"Howl …"
In an instant, the surrounding environment began to change. A zombie with half of its face missing and its body drenched in blood appeared two meters in front of Yukina. It opened its hands that were covered in minced meat and immediately pounced towards her.
"Ahhhhh —!!!"
At this moment, the girl's scream resounded throughout the chat room, filling the air with joy.
Yukina was so scared that she peed her pants. Although she didn't really pee, her tear ducts had already collapsed.
She had learned Aikido, and her results were not bad. However, due to physical problems, it was not very difficult to fight. But after the blessing of Reinforced Iron Bones, she felt that she could fight. In reality, she had also tested her skills a little. Even if she faced two adult men, she was confident that she could take them down.
But the moment the zombie pounced on her, she didn't even have the courage to stand there, let alone fight. Her body was filled with fear, and she could do nothing but cry and run.
On the battlefield, the outcome of a person who was scared out of his wits by the enemy was obvious.
What's more, there was more than one zombie.
A few minutes later, Yukina was thrown to the ground by the zombie. The training was over.
This time, no one made fun of her. After all, this kind of thing also needed to have a sense of propriety. A joke would also hurt people.
But no one laughed at her. Yukina was a little uncomfortable. She looked at the training checkpoint and suddenly found a video playback. She subconsciously clicked on it.
The video showed her training. The whole process was only three minutes and twenty seconds.
This was simply too embarrassing.
Yukina had watched Tang Hao's live broadcast. From her point of view as a bystander, she sometimes felt that kind of thing was very simple. If she had Tang Hao's fighting ability, she could also do the same or even better.
Until today, when she experienced it herself, she finally understood that that kind of thinking was really too naive.
In the face of a battle, what was needed was not only fighting ability, but more importantly, courage!
The zombies in the video moved slowly and their fighting ability was also very low. There was no doubt that she was stronger than them. But she didn't do anything. The moment she was caught by the zombies, she completely lost the ability to resist.
This can't go on!
Yukina tightly clenched her fists. Through this humiliating failure, she thought of a lot of things. She didn't want to escape anymore. Therefore, when she saw her body being bitten by zombies, she didn't move her eyes away. She wanted to face everything and bravely overcome the fear in her heart. This was the only way … Uh?
Just when Yukina made up her mind, suddenly, she found in the video, the body that was bitten by zombies was edited by the system … at the position of the eyes.
"…"
What the hell!
Do you know how to edit or not?!
Yukina was furious.
