Chapter 201: Server-opening phenomenon and mounts(1/2)
Novice Village, Chenxi Town 1.
As the saying goes, once there are thousands of people, there is no limit. In this Xinshou Village, the number of people is only three or four thousand, which gives people such a sense of immediacy.
I don't know how many newbies are crowded in the "narrow" square, jostling each other, pushing each other, talking, shouting, yelling, laughing, cursing, speaking with accents from all over the world, noisy like a dish
market.
It has been three hours since the server was launched, and players are still coming online. Every ten seconds, a white light will appear at the spawn point, and then a fool who appears to be in a dream will come out, and then start to create new noise and chaos.
The first batch of newbies who logged in had already followed the mission process, received all the missions, and walked out of the novice village excitedly, exposed to the vast world outside.
ah……
The oncoming impact is more real than any movie special effects. Only when you are truly immersed in it do you realize that the videos and photos you have seen on the Internet cannot describe one ten thousandth of the moment.
The wind and grass are moving, and the midday sun shines on people's skin, bringing a slight warmth like early spring. The air is filled with the smell of grass, the fragrance of flowers, and the smell of earth. Every frame of this far surpasses the most exquisite CG.
The picture, this all-round and almost real perception, makes every newcomer who comes to Guijing speechless for the first time.
They were like a group of noisy ducks, running around and squawking. When they encountered monsters, they would often rush over in a swarm. After a while, they left behind a mess on the ground and corpses that seemed to have been trampled to death, as well as the corpses of monsters.
Then they dispersed and went to find the next target.
There are also many people who are crazy about taking selfies, facing the rising sun, looking at flowers and shrubs with nothing special, and even with a group of newbies who don’t know whether they are K monsters or committing suicide as the background... click, click.
System camera sound, from beginning to end.
Of course, there are also some people who adapt quickly and have already overcome the initial shock and confusion and found the right rhythm.
They have filled the monster spawning points for slimes, goblins, skeleton soldiers and demonized grass elves. The phenomenon of more people than monsters has happened again in the game. They are wearing the standard novice uniforms, each holding a wooden stick, just like
Like a 'zombie', they look for all moving figures that are not players with red eyes. Once discovered, they rush in swarm, fight, push, abuse, etc. are common repertoires.
For a slime, for a piece of copper coin that exploded, for a piece of junk whiteboard sold in batches to a system black shop by old players, I can fight for my brains.
After destroying all the damage near Novice Village, they were forced to sweep into more peripheral areas. More advanced zombies, demonized giant mosquitoes, demonized goblins, and demonized wasteland gophers spent a leisurely time that no one cared about.
, finally ushered in their "natural enemies", which were humans. They were simply locusts, more vicious than locusts. Wherever they passed, there was no living thing. Either they died or they died themselves. There was no other option.
Even the elites and BOSS were in a state of despair when the ants killed the elephant. At the King of Slime's refresh point, players' corpses were connected one after another, and there were still red-eyed players rushing in from a distance.
Come, one after another, they hit the Slime King with their wooden sticks, -1-1-1-1, all of them were damage that did not break the defense, but it was continuous, accompanied by white light that kept rising.
In the end, the Slime King was so angry that there was a big explosion.
This explosion has exploded in the psychology of all newbies.
Everyone at the scene shivered, just like the last moment when doing something like that, and they all went into a state of madness.
I don’t know who the lucky guy was who played the last -1. Without a team, no one could pick up things on the ground. Looking at the piles of copper coins and the white and green auras, these people pounced on these things.
Don't let anyone pick it up on you.
This is how a strange way of death appeared.
There are countless players who died because of "stacked Arhat". The last lucky player waited until the protection time limit passed, took out a whiteboard from under the pile of corpses, and laughed like a madman.
Do you think they are crazy?
wrong!
According to the current exchange rate, one copper plate is worth 7 soft girl coins, and a white plate package, even the most rubbish one, starts from 2 silver. How much is 2 silver? That is 1,400 soft girl coins. If this is a small top product, let’s talk about it separately.
Nowadays, there is a price but no market. As soon as it appears, it will be ignored by others, and the eyes are so slow that you can't even see it.
This isn't about killing monsters, it's clearly about robbing money.
Let me ask, how many ordinary people can stay sane when living in different places?
Of course, you can’t say there isn’t one.
Players who are smarter, have stronger self-control, and can always remain calm tend to gain the most. However, such people are often low-key, arrogant about getting rich, don't want to shoot guns, and are afraid of being discovered by others, so that all they see are such lunatics.
But the consequence of this was that the system power consumption skyrocketed. Bei Gaoyang was forced to resort to the method of "kicking offline". Anyway, the death penalty has no deterrent effect on newcomers who have nothing. Only kicking them offline can calm their minds.
, think twice before committing suicide.
Old players will not be kicked offline, and the death penalty mechanism is fully operational.
There were more than 13,000 out-of-order newcomers in the four novice villages. Bei Gaoyang was forced to be busy plugging loopholes and wiping his butts. More than 18,000 people were online at the same time, which not only provided a huge amount of soul power, but also brought a lot of troubles.
He was terrified of spending.
The courage value has 7-digit expenditures and 7-digit incomes every second. This in and out makes the background curve like a roller coaster. It is high and low. The peaks set new records many times, and the valleys make him
Worry, the magic network will collapse in the next second.
This situation is naturally unhealthy.
But he didn't have an effective way to solve it. He used all possible means, warning, jailing, deducting luck points, reducing favorability... none of them were as effective as kicking him offline.
But if you kick people down, they will have to come up. This newcomer who logs in for the first time will have to repeat the drama of his predecessors.
It's a vicious cycle.
In this case, the test is the tenacity of the magic network.
Xiao Ai's work efficiency is fully activated, and the threads are almost full. The huge game map, a huge amount of game content and functions, and a large number of random events all require her to be centrally dispatched and processed. More resources are invested there, and they can be temporarily extracted there.
Take part of it and use it elsewhere.
In this process of tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, the most difficult period was finally passed. By the time the server was launched for 5 hours, most of the newcomers finally found some rhythm when the game time was about to run out.
I did my homework offline and formed a team in a messy manner.
The tasks are filled as many as possible, supplies can be saved as much as possible, the poor ones have to grit their teeth and think about the bandages for a long time, thefts are forbidden repeatedly, and the newbies use all their subjective initiative to find loopholes, that is, they can cheat when they can, and rob when they can.
What is the lower limit?
Doesn't exist.
Centaur Ranch.
Shao Bing finally chose the horse card. Under Xia Miaomiao's instigation, everyone was very curious about the newly launched mount system and didn't know what the mount looked like.
When we arrived at the ranch together, we saw a simple wooden gate and a low wooden fence. A centaur in full leather armor held up the system logo, and the stiff doorway acted as the gatekeeper.
A large number of old players came in and out, and from time to time someone stopped to comment on him. Xia Miaomiao said, this centaur looks really big. I wonder if the hidden centaur race is that big, and whether it can be ridden by others.
,whee……
Entering the pasture, there is a grassland with many free-range horses wandering in groups and grazing on the grass.
There is a big difference between the horses of Canaan and the horses of Earth.
Taller, bigger, less docile, with a smaller head and a stronger body, with a thick mane, it looks like a lion from a distance, and there are two humps on the back, which looks a bit like a camel.
When I walked in, I saw a special divine horse. Players who had received a mount mission were talking to a centaur NPC. They waited for a while before it was their turn.
"Oh, you have obtained the token!?" The centaur NPC's accent is a bit strange. After system translation, it feels a bit like listening to a foreigner speaking Mandarin.
"You can choose an ordinary mount from the inventory.", the centaur NPC said happily.
The stables were the stables behind them. They were smelly, and there were many black, white, and colorful horses inside. Xia Miaomiao was more active than choosing her own. She ran around the stables and finally pulled her.
Shao Bing came to the horse he had chosen.
"How about this one?"
These horses are all similar. When Shao Bing was paying attention, the centaur just said something unintentionally.
Ordinary mount?
So there are extraordinary mounts?
He remembered this information in his heart and said with a smile: "It's pretty good."
Xia Miaomiao hesitated instead, "How about... let's take a look again. Maybe there is a better one?"
I spent another long time choosing, wasting time, and finally chose this one.
Leading this extremely handsome black horse out, Shao Bing found the mount interface on the game interface. He pointed his right hand at the horse and silently said: "Conquer". The black horse neighed, showing some resistance, and finally turned into a white light and cast
on him.
"Where's the horse?" Xia Miaomiao asked.
Shao Bing smiled and made a move, and the black horse appeared in the open space next to him again, becoming much docile and losing the wildness before.
"Wow, it's really convenient!"
"Isn't this a normal function of the game? Please don't be surprised, okay?" Lin Xiao came to attack her again.
"I want you to take care of it!?"
Du Shiyu and Fan Chaoyue wandered out, chatting and laughing, and asked Shao Bing to ride on them.
Shao Bing got on his mount and rode the horse for a few steps without feeling comfortable. He found that it was very stable. The horse seemed to know that his mind was on the horse. He didn't need any verbal commands, just a simple and direct thought.
When he was excited, it was like stepping on the accelerator, and the horse started to gallop, regardless of the shouts and screams of the companions behind him, and rushed into the distance as fast as lightning.
"Ha ha……"
A strong wind blew against my face, the scenery around me flashed by quickly, and the black spots in the distance quickly enlarged, reaching a speed of at least 80 kilometers per hour.
To be continued...
