Chapter 1323: The smile of the sword G.o.d (1)
Translator: 549690339
It was still very cold in January.
However, Thriller Paradise’s server and forums were still buzzing with activity.
Less than a week after the ‘Christmas Treasure Hunt’ event, dream Inc. Took advantage of the New Year’s Day to launch a new model,’group battle’.
The setting of this mode wasn’t complicated. Simply put, it was a killing game with two players in a team.
However, in this mode of the scenario, there would be a certain number of pairs of players, but as for the exact number … Dream Inc. Had stated that there would be no upper limit. In other words, at the very least, there might only be two pairs of players … Or four people … Fighting a two-on-two battle. However, it was also possible that there were a hundred people in a scenario, and they would be split into fifty groups to fight.
!!
And in this model where the number of players was unclear, some of the rules that were suitable for traditional killing games could not be used.
First of all, the players would not be able to see the IDs of the enemy players in the game menu. All the players who entered this mode could only see the status of themselves and their teammates. As for the number of enemy players and where they were … They had no idea.
Secondly, under the aforementioned circ.u.mstances, the winning condition for this mode would no longer follow the rule of ‘kill all the opponents’. Therefore, the winning condition for group battle would be similar to a normal scenario, but there was a ‘rule of being first’. For example, they could “obtain something, kill a target, or reach a place before all the opponents.”
Of course, if all the enemy players died before someone reached the winning condition, the last remaining group or player would naturally be the winner.
After saying so much, I’m sure everyone can guess that the following story will take place in a ‘group fight’ mode.
However, before we tell this story, we have to first talk about what happened after Feng bujue partic.i.p.ated in the ‘Christmas Treasure Hunt’ mode.
That morning, after brother Jue woke up in the game cabin, the white light in his eyes disappeared soon after, and he … Could clearly feel that his ‘aberration of truth’ ability had grown.
He couldn’t help but think that if he were to trace the root of the matter, he and fate could be considered to be from the same universe. Perhaps … Fate knew something that the people of this universe didn’t and had helped him in some way.
Feng bujue sat there and thought until dawn.
By the time he recovered from the urge to pee, he found that it was already nineo’ clock in the morning … He quickly went to the toilet and immediately came back, trying to log in to the game.
However, at this time, the voice in the game cabin prompted him that his character was abnormal and that he could not log in.
Therefore, brother Jue immediately contacted the customer service of dream Inc.
To make a long story short, he received a reply after a working day. The content of the email was as follows:
It was impossible to reset the file completely because one’s interaction with the NPCs and anomalies and the consequences were part of the game. It was just like how some people’s equipment was destroyed when they were fighting monsters in a scenario. However, even his character attributes had been deleted, which was indeed a rather abnormal situation. After discussion among the various departments of the company, the final decision was:
[ 1. The character that is reset to zero will be upgraded to level 55. The experience points (192312600 points) will be included as compensation for other abnormal losses.]
Second, the character’s mastery level, skill points, and game coins can be restored to the state they were in when they last logged in.
[ 3. Luggage, all items, and equipment on the character, except for “other types,” will not be able to be restored if they are of excellent quality (including excellent quality) and below.]
Items that can not be recovered include: [infinite grenade box](superior, tool),[wjq308 military shovel (everlasting)](superior, originally “tool,” defined as “composite weapon” in this version),[star cooling cannon (no way)](superior, weapon),[alchemy King’s taunt](superior, defensive),[Phantom lady’s caress](superior, defensive),[smiling face](superior, defensive),[name: I WANNA Bea BELT (excellent, defensive type),[Life Points recovery potion (medium) X5],[Life Points recovery potion (large) X5].
4. Apart from [moon steps] and [mist kick], all other skills can not be recovered.
5. The character storage room was not affected.
That was the conclusion that Feng bujue had gotten.
If this email did not have the sentence ‘hehehe, player, please forgive me’, brother Jue would most likely have gone to attack dream Inc.’S headquarters.
However, when Feng bujue saw that sentence, he instantly understood many things …
The entire email was filled with an official tone, and the tone was not very polite. Only that last sentence … Was clearly written by Woody.
To others, this did not seem to explain anything, but Feng bujue understood that Woody had used a unique method to convey some information to him.
And that was that this time, what happened to Yingying wasn’t something that Woody could decide alone.
It wasn’t difficult to deduce this …
In this ‘bet’, Feng bujue was the key and prominent figure, and there were many people who wanted him dead. This time, his data was cleared by 23, so those people must be celebrating; And among those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, there must be someone called Uriel.
In any case, in this incident, the pressure that Woody had to bear was so great that one could imagine … His opponents in the bet would definitely use the excuse of ‘recovering Feng bujue’s data being unfair’ to press him for an answer. Come to think of it … For brother Jue’s character to return to this state, it was already the result of Woody’s best mediation.
Under such circ.u.mstances, if Feng bujue did not give up, he would only push himself and Woody into an even worse situation.
Brother Jue was a person who was good at accounting, a sensible person, and also a person who liked to reflect on himself. This incident was caused by his own “miscalculation”. Thinking of this, he didn’t have anything to worry about. He should pay for his own mistake.
Just like that, Feng bujue, who had ‘returned to the beginning’, returned to the game …
The first thing he did was sort out his current resources.
Thankfully, he had received a ‘clear reward’ the moment he went online. Obviously, ambitionist and snow had completed the scenario’s main quest after he ‘died’. Of course … Brother Jue only received a portion of the experience. He did not get the reward for Surviving the Game.
After that, he asked ambitionist what happened. Ambitionist told him that after killing him and ‘Ken’ in 23 seconds, Blackbeard handed over what 23 wanted, and 23 left after achieving his goal.
Ambitionist also knew how to judge the situation and quickly expressed his att.i.tude toward brother Jue’s death to Blackbeard. He was very happy. After that, he made a deal with Blackbeard.
In the end, after helping Blackbeard investigate the disappearance of his son and ‘dancing shadow’, ambitionist and snow successfully obtained the ‘original translation of Ramayana’ as a reward and completed the script.
By the way, the truth was very simple: When Wu Zhiying met up with Blackbeard’s son, they were discovered by a few members of nine G.o.ds who were still active on the island at the time. Then, they were besieged by the illusion Devil Church, and both died. Wu Zhiying had used his special ability to leave behind a message to Blackbeard before he died, but the message was unclear. This was because he did not know much about his opponent’s overall plan, and he did not know that there was a super powerful anomaly behind the scenes.
After knowing that, Feng bujue felt a load off his mind. The game still had to continue …
The depression from when [must-break defense blade] was broken was still vivid in his mind, but now it seemed that this little loss was only the “appetizer.”
Let’s take a look at brother Jue’s current character stats.
[Feng bujue: level 55]
t.i.tle: [dark pioneer] t.i.tle ability: [Demon fighter descent]
Experience points: 32180/56000000, skill points: 105681 game coins: 10145000
[Specializations: general ability A, workmans.h.i.+p A, sleuthing B, fighting S, marksmans.h.i.+p B, medic D, sorcery A, summoning A]
[Travel bag (14/25): Chuck Norris’s autobiography, the deceptive pocket watch, Chuck Norris ‘razor, oxygen pipe, Chi Chi Chi, Swift as a forest, moving like a Thunderbolt, the sealed’s right foot, the sealed’s left foot, the sealed’s right wrist, the sealed’s left wrist, the rat Hammer, JUST WE, the heaven gang earth Sha case.]
[Equipment: mad poker (sorcery weapon), 19/20 mean battle armor, void-stepping, Bell’s daily knife]
[Storage room (3/15): poker man hero ID card, puzzle card “Sparrow”, puzzle card “white”.]
[Skill bar (2/13):[moonwalk][mist kick]
Unequipped skills: [the persistence of an Ice Master],[not so hasty repair],[Qi cannon],[flying dragon Fist of the southern Dipper]
[Soul’s will: zero-time difference calculation, REWRITE (rank-2)]
This time, he felt much more refreshed. The few skills that he didn’t bring with him in the storage room were lucky enough to escape this disaster. As for the equipment above perfect-grade and a few more critical “other” items, they had all been restored, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.
After some sorting, Feng bujue naturally took the remaining skills and hero ID cards from his inventory. After all, his inventory and skill slots were mostly empty, so it would be a waste not to take them.
From a certain perspective, the losses from this ‘miscalculation’ made Feng bujue’s game even more interesting. Due to his weakened strength, in the days that followed, he was a.s.signed to many scenarios that were previously relatively easy, but that was not what they were going to talk about this time …
This time, the story began on the night of New Year’s Day, when he and RUO Yu had a “team fight”.
…………
Feng bujue, level 55
[Pa.s.sing rain, level 52]
“Please select the game mode you wish to join.”
“You have chosen group battle. Please confirm.”
“Confirmed, generating scenario …”
“Loading, please wait.”
The familiar system notifications flashed past one by one, followed by a particularly wuxia-like opening remark made by a rough male voice.
“The wind and snow cover the Central Plains. There are no friends in the martial world. Let’s drink a cup of wine. I travel the world with my sword.”
The opening speech was unique to the script in front of him, and the style of the speech revealed the world view of the script.
“Download Complete. You are currently engaged in a combination battle.”
“A scenario introduction is provided in this mode, and there is a chance of a side or hidden mission and a special world-building appearing.
“Scenario victory reward: 10000000 experience points.
“The scenario introduction is about to play. The game will start immediately after the play.
When he saw the reward, Feng bujue was slightly disappointed because he did not lack experience. After the data collapse incident, the only positive compensation he received was experience points … He had received nearly 200 million free experience points.
Therefore, what brother Jue needed right now was equipment and skills.
Of course, he did gain something in the past few days. Many people might have forgotten that Feng bujue could actually ‘create skill cards"(ghost electricity). However, the activation mechanism of that ability was very complicated, and it had to be done at the right time.
Other than that, the [Big Dipper earth fiend box] was also an item that could be used to learn skills, but brother Jue had not fully understood the item’s full function and was still in the process of exploring it …
[Ming, Qifeng ninth year, twelfth month.]
The voice-over quickly began with the plot introduction, and the moment it opened, it announced a fictional year that had never existed in history. It was the same as the ’22nd year of Shengping’ in the script where brother Jue met Lin Yan and eunuch Cao. This was undoubtedly a fictional dynasty from a parallel universe.
[The Emperor works hard to rule, the people are healthy, and the world is at peace.]
“Oh? The emperor of the Ming Dynasty made great efforts to rule?” When brother Jue heard the second sentence, he could not help but curse in his heart.
[To my surprise, there is a storm of blood in the martial arts world.]
[During Mid-Autumn, the Lord of the Jiang clan’s Castle,”river crossing sword,” third master Jiang’s entire family of sixty-three people were found dead in their home. Including Jiang San himself, all the deceased were killed in an instant by the same sword, with the same sword technique.]
YiJiang San was born on the border of Yunnan, and was the direct disciple of cloud Explorer Duan Keyi, the sect leader of Dian Cang sect. After the incident, Duan ke, who received the news, personally led his men to investigate. After a few months, the matter gradually became clear …
[It is said that a few days before Jiang san’s death, he had obtained a sword manual from a j.a.panese Ronin. The Ronin didn’t know the true value of this sword manual, so he took it to a p.a.w.nshop and p.a.w.ned it at a low price. After a few rounds, it ended up in the hands of the third master of the Jiang family.
[Jiang san’s martial arts were already among the best in the pugilistic world. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to take down the Jiang clan’s Foundation. After obtaining the sword manual, Jiang San discovered that it was a peerless martial arts technique written by PEI Yuan (one of the three unique in the Tang Dynasty, the sword Saint who was as famous as the immortal poet Li Bai and the gra.s.s Saint Zhang Xu).
[ 1] Yi jiangsan was overjoyed. He immediately handed over the family business to his younger brother to manage while he went into seclusion to practice his swordsmans.h.i.+p.
“Who would have thought that the news would leak, and a few days later, the Jiang clan would be completely annihilated.”
[A month later, when the details of the case gradually became clear, the tragic deaths of the 63 members of the Jiang family were no longer important.]
[The focus of the entire martial arts world is on that sword manual …]
[In the twelfth lunar month, a reliable source said that the sword manual will appear in a town hundreds of miles away from Shanhai Pa.s.s on the night of New Year’s Eve …]
The narration stopped there, and then, Feng bujue and Li Ruoyu gained the ability to move.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them were already in a snowy forest. The sudden drop in temperature could only be described with one word to describe the feeling of chilliness.
Even though the sun was high in the sky, and it looked like it was noon, the warmth that the sun could bring was limited.
[Main mission triggered]
Similar to The Killing Game, this combination chaotic battle mode also stated the ultimate goal at the beginning.
[Obtain “sword dance gra.s.s” before other players and retain its owners.h.i.+p for one hour.]
When this quest appeared in the quest Bar along with the system voice, there was a note at the bottom: “sword dance gra.s.s” can not be placed in the inventory. Please click here to check its “owners.h.i.+p”.
The word ‘check’ was a link. If one focused their attention there, they would be able to see a more detailed explanation.
“Looks like …” Feng bujue only used a few seconds to read through all the information. He turned to RUO Yu and said,”…The difficulty of this main mission is to’ possess ‘, not’ obtain ‘.”
“Is it that difficult to ensure that the sword manual is not s.n.a.t.c.hed away within an hour?” RUO Yu asked.
“Ha …” Feng bujue chuckled.”Let’s talk while we walk. If we just stand here like this … I think we’ll lose our Life Points soon.”
