Volume 2 The Name of the Mountains and Seas and the Prison Chapter 18 A Difficult Trial

At this time, in the No. 9 Novice Village, the resurrected players flocked to the room of the novice village leader, ready to submit a mission to the "new world".

"Village Chief! I'm going to turn in a mission! I'm going to a new map! ”

"Village Chief! We defeated the Snow Bear, is there a reward? ”

"Dude, didn't you get the reward? Isn't it automatically loaded into the package? ”

"Dizzy! Don't demolish me! Didn't I see if there was another reward for the village chief? ”

In the face of the players rubbing shoulders in front of him, the "village chief" was expressionless (the wood carving clone could not have any expression), just waved his hand lightly, and brought up the picture of the players building snow bears and defending the boss snow bears, and also let the players who did not participate in that battle see the heroic performance of their comrades in the same village.

"Warriors, you did a great job defeating the snow bear that dominated the teleportation circle! Next, I will activate the teleportation circle, and all warriors who have completed the novice trial can use the teleportation circle to go to the next stop: the Wanliu Realm. Now, come with me. ”

After speaking, the village chief's momentum changed, the black robe he was wearing was windless, and a blue-gray magic circle appeared at his feet out of thin air, and all players who stepped into this magic circle received a system prompt: Do you want to open the teleportation to an unknown region? Of course, a group of players did not hesitate to choose yes, so after the circle flickered, they arrived at the teleportation master with the village chief, and also saw the teleportation circle emitting a light blue light and Xiao Xi standing aside.

"You're finally here."

"Yes, I'm here."

The two NPCs pretend to have a mysterious dialogue, which is regarded by the surrounding players as the bad taste of the "Mountains and Seas" planning team, they just quietly wait for the arrival of the plot CG, and then be the first to enter the new map! Without making them wait long, the village chief greeted the teleportation master meaningfully, then took out an item similar to a power stone from his sleeve and threw it into the circle.

"Is this the Empty Mirror Stone?" Xiao Xi, who was quietly watching from the sidelines, thought to herself.

After that special stone fell into the teleportation circle, it did not fall to the ground, but hovered crookedly in midair, and countless silver-white silk threads stretched out from the stone, inserting them into the various nodes of the light blue teleportation circle, and the silver and blue light mist were born. The light mist didn't have any shape at first, but it slowly began to turn into the appearance of a strange beast, the appearance did not look hideous, the head was a bit like a fox but had dog ears, after a short period of condensation, the light mist quickly dispersed into the silver-white silk thread, and then flowed into the teleportation circle, a hazy starry sky loomed, and then the light of a star stood out from the starry sky, which also means that the teleportation circle was connected to the star.

"Is it finally done?"

"The picture just now is so mysterious! It is worthy of the most ancient online game! It's powdered! ”

"What is that strange beast that just appeared? Is there a big guy in Diao to help you answer? ”

"The plot party can't be provoked! But I recorded the video, and I'll send it to the forum to ask, and there will always be a hundred-level boss on the forum who will comment! ”

"The production of "Mountains and Seas" is very conscientious! There are so many special effects in 15 seconds of CG, which is amazing! ”

……

After the plot CG, ambitious players will naturally not feel the same as the "Scenery Party" and "Plot Party" players about the big production of "Mountains and Seas", they are even more lamented by the visible changes in the combat power of the war pets, and this kind of pet-like interaction makes them want to participate in person. But what they didn't expect was that this moment would come so quickly.

As the leader of the players to take the lead in defeating the boss of the gate and breaking the overall design of the "dog plan", Xiao Xi is looking down at his task list with some confusion. "Does this Beginner's Trial mean to involve the player in the battle themselves? But it's a bit weird to get involved......"

【Main Quest】Beginner Trial

Description: After defeating the boss of the novice village, you already have enough strength to face the vast starry sky, but the premise of entering the starry sky exploration is to have the strength to resist the oppression of space turbulence. Choose any type of Novice Trial, and after passing, you can obtain the blessing of that type of trainer and activate the class template.

There are three types of Novice Trials: Wild Trainer Trial, Heavy Trainer Trial, and Star Spirit Trainer Trial.

Rewards: Teleportation Key, Karma Coins, Titles, Perfection Bloodstone (random rewards).

Mission Restrictions: Players must reach level 2 and at least one pet must reach level 2.

"Career change mission? It seems that we need to gather more information first. Reloading ...... Is this to balance the combat power of Aromatic Feet? Also, her kind of play is too exaggerated to weaken ......" Xiao Xi returned to the village while thinking about the next way to play. For him, "Mountains and Seas" is more than just fun.

After the main quest was updated to the Novice Trial, players in the Novice Village focused on the three trainers, which is a new way to play that has never appeared in the closed beta! During the closed beta, many players were not attracted by the overwhelming publicity of "Mountains and Seas", the reason is that there is no class system, such a realistic VR/AR game, if you can't fight in person, it will be too boring! But this "Class Change" trial directly reversed the minds of this part of the players!

In order to get complete career template information and even task strategies, players on the forum threw away the "festival exercises" one after another, and began to tout the No. 9 novice village without a bottom line, hoping that the bigwigs of the "First Village of "Mountains and Seas" could release the strategy for free, but they were mercilessly rejected by the players of the first village of Gao (zhuang) cold (bi). After two or three days of drooling on the forum, things finally took a turn for the better! No. 113 Novice Village, under the leadership of the "Threesome" team, defeated the boss Senluo Python in the jungle environment through the "Netting" tactic, while no one in No. 9 Novice Village has yet to complete the Novice Trial! In order to maintain the position (bi) of the "First Village", players in No. 9 Novice Village finally released the content of the No. 9 Novice Trial one after another, which also made players stunned.

Main Quest: Wild Trainer Trial

Description: Wild Trainer is a career direction that uses soul power to enhance the combat power of war pets and win battles through cooperation with war pets. If you want to become a wild trainer, you must first be multitasking and always grasp the state of each war pet.

Trial requirements: Command two war pets at the same time, and alternately complete the attack in the specified direction within the specified time.

Reward: Wild Trainer Class Item.

【Main Quest】Reload the Trainer Trial

Description: The Heavy Trainer is a career direction that uses soul power to strengthen one's weapons and equipment, so that oneself has the same combat power as the war pet, and fights side by side with the war pet to achieve victory. If you want to become a heavy trainer, the first thing you need to do is improve your combat ability.

Trial requirements: Choose the weapon that suits you, fight with the war pet, and defeat the enemy within the time limit.

Reward: Reload the Trainer class item.

【Main Quest】Star Spirit Trainer Trial

Description: The Star Spirit Trainer is a career direction that leverages the spiritual power in the surrounding environment through soul power, controls and weakens the enemy, and helps his war pet to win. If you want to become an Astral Spirit Trainer, you must first be able to sense the elements in your surroundings.

Trial requirements: Command two war pets with different attributes to dodge attacks with restrained attributes within the specified time.

Reward: Star Trainer class item.

These three career paths are also summarized by players as Hunter, Warrior and Mage, and the process of trials also has its own characteristics, with players jokingly calling them "Zuma the Frog", "Half-Life" and "Temple Run". The reason why no one has passed the trial so far is simple: the process of the three trials is very painful. First of all, the strength of the battle pet cannot reach the 2nd level, the wild trainer does not have enough spiritual power to release long-range attacks during the trial, and the reloaded trainer trial cannot even break the defense! Secondly, players must get used to watching multiple screens at the same time in order to ensure a 360-degree full field of view, ensuring that attacks hit and dodge attacks. Finally, each trial is time-limited, and the duration is 2 hours!

The standard maximum of soul power for each level 2 player is 500, and when maintaining two war pets to fight at the same time, it consumes 4 spirit power per minute, which means that even if the player does nothing, they can only last 125 minutes! This translates to a maximum of 20 Spirit Power Release Skills per player in Trials. What's even more terrifying is that when the reloaded trainer and the star spirit trainer are tested, I will have to deduct 1 soul power if I am hit once!

In the face of such a difficult trial, the vast majority of players have chosen the Wild Trainer, and Zouma Frog is also the least dependent on the operation of the mini-game. Temple Run is too reflexes and has become the second choice for players. As for the reloaded trainer, although it is the dream of countless players, it really can't be beaten!

According to the assumptions of Xiang Qing and others, the first wave of players to enter the Wanliu Realm must be dominated by wild trainers, and the multi-screen operation can ensure the lower limit of the battle; In the second wave and even a few versions of the backdoor, more players will choose to become reloaded trainers without time pressure and experience the thrill of live PK; The Star Spirit Trainer is a field-controlling class that must be equipped by all major teams, and it is also the easiest class for ordinary players to play a role. In fact, there is a relationship between the three professions of mutual restraint, the wild trainer can strengthen the strength of the battle pet, but it needs protection itself, and is restrained by the heavy trainer; The Heavy Trainer has no additional bonuses against the Battle Pet, so it is easier for the Control-focused Star Spirit Trainer to drag the player and defeat the Battle-Pet; However, the Star Spirit Trainer lacks the ability to attack strongly, and it needs the cooperation of multi-element attribute war pets to play, which is easy to be defeated by the Wild Trainer using attribute suppression.

After the "Mountains and Seas" forum exposed the characteristics and trial content of the three professions, it completely stimulated the enthusiasm of players to fight bosses! The Seven Swords team, the first to challenge the BOSS, the bald brother who is gearing up, and the artist who is holding back their ultimate, have all embarked on the journey of defeating the BOSS on the fifth day of the open beta, but more novice villages are constantly fighting for a killing environment without interference. In order to become the first player to enter the Wanliu Realm, countless people began their careers as Liver Emperors.
