003. Take You Around
Although he still couldn't find the rhythm of getting along, he was still a little happy to meet an "acquaintance" online, "this game seems to have changed a lot."
What answered him was a red selection box popping up on the screen –
Fire Ruthless invited you to "ride together", please choose to refuse.
And a sentence: "come up, I'll take you around."
Next to the other side, a red beast with black stripes appeared, and its whole body was burning with flames like the bird beside him … He Jin's eyes lit up, and he clicked "accept".
Tsing Yi Lolita automatically stepped on the mount, and weakly leaned on Fire Ruthless.
He Jin: "…"
On the screen, "he" was petite, dressed in cotton clothes, while the other side was tall and powerful, wearing a brocade robe and a black armor, and his whole body was glowing … no matter how he looked at it, it didn't match.
No matter what happened eight years ago, after all, both of them were still young, and even if they got married, it would only be a game. But now it was different, the 22-year-old He Jin had a complete worldview, and as a pure man, he couldn't substitute himself for the fact that "he" was being held in the arms of another man.
But a game was a game, this kind of sitting posture was default by the system, there was no other choice.
The "beast" began to run with the two on its back. It didn't fly, but its four hooves were smoking, as if it was riding on clouds … it was very cool.
He Jin tried to find a topic to ease the awkwardness, "what kind of mount is this? It looks so handsome. "
Fire Ruthless, "Poor Flame."
Xiao Xian Jin, "what about the bird flying with you?"
Fire Ruthless, "Blazing Soul Vermillion Bird."
Xiao Xian Jin, "why do you have wings behind you?"
Fire Ruthless, "it's the Wings of Magic."
Xiao Xian Jin, "…"
He Jin didn't speak. Although he felt that those things were very cool, he hadn't heard of any of them. Asking this and that, he seemed a bit silly.
Fortunately, there was someone to guide them, so it was good to see the scenery.
They left the flower valley and entered the mountain path, along the green hills and green grass, flowing water and floating flowers.
Nowadays, games were extremely realistic. The computer hardware could completely keep up with it. There would not be any data lag or lag. The details of the game scenes were also comparable to fantasy movies. Every frame was a beautiful picture when zoomed in.
He Jin put on his headphones, and heard the simulated sound effects from the game – the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, the chirping of the birds, the sound of Poor Flame Tiger running was as light as stepping on cotton, but the occasional hissing sound made his heart palpitate.
Xiao Xian-Jin: "So beautiful …"
Fire Ruthless: "The holographic image will be even more beautiful. Not only will you be able to see it, but you will also be able to immerse yourself in it … By the way, did you get that holographic helmet?"
Xiao Xian-Jin, "yes, I filled it in before logging in." He Jin was looking forward to the result of the simulation game.
Fire Ruthless, "Haha …"
While they were talking, Fire Ruthless took him to the entrance of a quaint village. The wooden plaque on the entrance read: Beginner's Village.
Fire Ruthless: "Do you recognize this place?"
He Jin glanced around and asked hesitantly, "this is … the novice village?"
Fire Ruthless: "yes."
The quaint thatched fence, the villagers cutting firewood by the stream, the Heavenly Master Gang who specialized in issuing novice tasks, and the Wang Half-immortal who sold pills at the entrance of the village … the familiar scenes and NPCs slowly made He Jin's dark memories clear!
Although the scene in his impression was much rougher than this, every player who had just come into contact with online games had a different feeling for the "novice village".
It was here that He Jin first learned how to roll and jump, the first time he received a task, the first time he learned how to buy things, the first time he took medicine to restore his blood, the first time he found a way to kill monsters, and then he gained experience, gained achievements, and got more powerful equipment … every time he grew up, leveled up, he felt full of sense of achievement.
He felt that he had found the feeling of playing games for the first time eight years ago – as if he had broken free from the cage, spread his wings and flew in the clouds, relaxed, free, happy … He Jin's mouth unconsciously curved up.
If he was not sure whether he wanted to play the game or not when he first logged in, now he was a little shaken.
Fire Ruthless took him around the village and came to the back of the mountain, where he saw a lot of monkeys scratching their ears and cheeks on the steep rocks and slopes.
Fire Ruthless canceled the riding state, and as soon as their feet touched the ground, the monkeys madly rushed to scratch them. He Jin instinctively wanted to fight back, but when he was in a hurry to find the skill key, a blood red ripple suddenly appeared under Fire Ruthless's feet. The ripple spread at the speed of light, and wherever it passed, the monkeys were shaken and flew away, not a single one was spared!
At the same time, He Jin's screen was also flashing rapidly –
System Fire Ruthless killed a monkey, you gained 1 experience.
System Fire Ruthless killed a monkey, you gained 1 experience.
System Fire Ruthless killed a monkey, you gained 1 experience.
System …
… …
After two seconds, the whole mountain was silent, and hundreds of monkeys were instantly turned into ashes.
Tsing Yi Loli who suddenly gained hundreds of experience points: "…"
Fire Ruthless calmly stood in front of He Jin, his sword was still sheathed, his clothes were not stained with blood, as if the monkey incident had nothing to do with him.
A cold wind rolled up the cliff, and a dialogue bubble floated above the man's head: "This is where we met, do you still remember?"
Different people, different auras, different words.
But the monkey scene still opened up He Jin's dusty memory …
He asked with some uncertainty: "Were you lower level than me at that time?"
Fire Ruthless: "Yes."
He Jin remembered, this guy is … the one who used a blunt sword to cut down monkeys in the wild … and died a number of times … a mortal rookie?
Before mortals cultivated into a spirit person, they could not use any spells, and could only use knives, swords, stones and other tools to cut monsters in close range, and even bare-handed. Therefore, low-level humans could easily die.
At that time, He Jin passed by here and saw Fire Ruthless being beaten by monkeys. He helped him a little, and the two became acquainted.
At that time, it was very novel for He Jin to make friends online. Moreover, since he was young, he was either the class monitor or the group secretary. He Jin preferred to act as an elder and take care of others.
Although he was brought to play by his classmates, He Jin couldn't keep up with their pace of leveling up. After a long time, he was left behind, and could only explore by himself. After knowing Fire Ruthless in the game, He Jin naturally played with him often.
Finally, the mysterious veil of "Fire Ruthless" was lifted, and He Jin was pleasantly surprised: "So it's you!" However, this guy was originally called "Fire Ruthless", not "Ruthless".
Xiao Xian Jin: "How did you change it to" Fire Ruthless "?" No wonder he didn't recognize him at first!
Fire Ruthless: "What do you think?"
The other's reply made He Jin a bit confused. He was stunned for a moment, then he heard Fire Ruthless say: "You were gone for eight years, how can I still have feelings?"
He Jin thought he was joking, so he followed up with a joke: "Why, is it that this game requires two people to be online at the same time?"
The cold wind blew, and there was a moment of silence.
The Blazing Soul Vermillion Bird on Fire's shoulder flapped its wings and screamed: "Squeak – ah!"
The cry sounded a bit strange, like it was shouting: "Pig …"
After ten seconds, Fire Ruthless sent a message: "Whether it's Spirit Fairy or Demon God, only the one who is proposed to has the right to cancel the engagement."
He Jin reacted, and naturally thought that he was the one who was proposed to, which caused Fire Ruthless to not be able to divorce until now.
He felt a bit sorry: "I'm sorry, I've delayed you for so many years … How about you take me to the place where the engagement was canceled?"
Blazing Soul Vermillion Bird: "Squeak …"
He Jin: "…"
Fire's hand seemed to be waving, but there was no movement. He Jin was about to ask again, but the screen trembled again.
System: You were attacked by Fire Ruthless.
System: You received 1650 points of damage.
System: You are dead.
… … Again, he was killed …
※ The Past of Spirit Fairy ※ (2)
He Jin glanced at the character level in the upper left corner of the screen – "Half Demon (10)".
Finally, he was promoted to level 10, from "Spirit" to "Half Demon"!
His character image also changed from a seven or eight year old child to a ten year old child. His hair was grey, and he couldn't tell whether he was a boy or a girl. However, his body was a lot taller, and his walking and running speed were faster!
He Jin excitedly went to Heaven Master Gang to receive the next task – collecting herbs.
This was simple. He Jin ran to the place where the task was carried out. When he passed by the cliff, he saw the familiar figure killing the mountain monkeys.
The task of killing the mountain monkeys was a hurdle in the Spirit Fairy game. Ten out of ten new players had to kneel here, especially the low-level "mortals" who mainly used close-range attacks.
He Jin was brought here to play by his classmates. At the beginning, he had someone to help him, so he didn't experience any hardships. Not to mention, the "spirit" he played could use long-range attacks. Although the power was not great, he could "kite" the monsters to death, so he didn't have a deep resentment towards the monkeys.
Other players couldn't do it. Many "mortals" complained that this was a system bug, and that the monkeys' lethality was too big, simply unscientific!
Unexpectedly, the official answer was: the purpose of this task is to let everyone experience the rugged road of cultivation …
The players complained, but they couldn't do anything. After a long time, "to kill the mountain monkeys, you must form a team" became the consensus of everyone.
The familiar figure He Jin saw was called Fire Ruthless. He didn't know how many times he had killed the monkeys on the cliff!
Originally, He Jin thought that after Fire knew about the power of the mountain monkeys, he would go to the world channel to ask for a team. However, after He Jin came back, this stupid mortal was still looking for death by himself!
… … So persistent.
The game system set up a very heroic action when a mortal male character died – one hand covering the chest, kneeling on the ground, and a mouthful of blood, straight down.
He Jin had seen other people die before, but when he saw this person die, he didn't know why he wanted to laugh.
After the character died, the player could choose to go to the nearest resurrection point to be reborn, and the body on the ground would also disappear.
But this guy had been lying there since he died, and didn't do anything … … Was he too depressed to be killed? Haha!
After He Jin finished collecting the herbs, he went back to the cliff. He saw that the man had already died, but he came back again. He was still a stupid man.
However, this time, when he only had a little bit of blood left, he sent a help bubble to He Jin, "99999999 … …" The next second after the bubble appeared, the man was scratched by three mountain monkeys at the same time. He covered his chest with one hand, kneeled on the ground, and a mouthful of blood – lying down!
Fire Ruthless, "… …"
He Jin finally couldn't help but laugh out loud!
He sent a friend request and said, "Team up, I'll help you."
