Chapter 48: System Updates

When I got home from work that day, I saw that Liu Ronghua was different, and he was already sitting in front of the computer early. In normal times, Sun Yimin will arrive home earlier than Liu Ronghua. Liu Ronghua usually returns home later than Sun Yimin because of socializing or dating.

Sun Yimin took out his laptop to start the game, but found that the startup interface was stuck in the state of "download update package", and he did not enter the main interface of the game for half a day.

It was the first time he had encountered this situation since he came into contact with online games, so he asked Liu Ronghua on the side: "What is this going to update?" ”

"The client version has been updated, and the game system has introduced new ways to play." Liu Ronghua said without thinking.

"What's new, let's hear about it."

"This update is heavyweight," Liu Ronghua explained while busy operating the mouse, "The new version introduces two new maps at level 70 and corresponding new dungeon scenes. There's a new quest to challenge, and what's more: the new quest will drop brand new level 70 gear, which is worth looking forward to. ”

This aroused Sun Yimin's curiosity and asked, "Is it?" Which two maps and new copies? ”

"One Wuluo Zhongli Mountain, which has the entrance to the dungeon "Baguo Maze", and the other map is Zhuolu Field, which has the entrance to the dungeon 'Zhuolu Phantom War'. The first quest mainly drops level 70 armor, and the latter one drops level 70 weapons and accessories. In addition, a new level 7 medicinal herb can be collected on the new map. ”

Sun Yimin nodded.

The update process on Mr. Sun's computer screen appears to be progressing slowly, and it will take a while to visualize. I'm going to do something serious first.

Today, Lao Zhao in the company gave him a USB flash drive, which contained some component source code about the security of the online game server, and Sun Yimin took it home to prepare to study it in the evening.

Plug in the USB flash drive to the computer, browse for about ten minutes, and the game is updated.

Liu Ronghua formed a team to urge Sun Yimin to enter the group, and Sun Yimin unplugged the USB flash drive to start the game.

After completing the daily tasks, Liu Ronghua quit the team. Instead, he joined another team.

Sun asked, "What are you going to do here?" ”

"Go and challenge Zhuolu Phantom War." Ryu said without thinking.

"Ah, then why did you quit the team and go to someone else's team?" Sun asked.

"I didn't say I wanted to take you." Liu Ronghuamu said expressionlessly. At this time, his team still seems to be short of people, and he is calling for personnel on the World Channel.

Looking at his screen, there are currently only him and Yue'er in the team, as well as Gongsun Yu of Liu Ronghua's gang.

Sun Yimin asked a little unhappily: "What do you mean?" Is this to abandon me? ”

He originally wanted to try it out, try the new dungeon, and maybe drop a golden weapon. He had a beautiful idea: if he was lucky, he might be able to get a 70 best weapon in the dungeon, and he would have it.

But he was naΓ―ve. At this time, I saw Liu Ronghua said lightly: "I can't take you with this." ”

"Why?" Sun Yimin was puzzled.

"The difficulty of the new dungeon is high, and if you enter this combat power, not only will you hang it yourself, but it will also drag down the entire team, leading to the eventual extinction of the group."

Sun Yimin was stunned and asked again: "Then according to you, how much combat power does this need to be qualified to challenge?" ”

"200,000 starts. I've heard from a friend that the team's combat power is below this level, and it's hard to pass the dungeon. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it may eventually be wiped out. Liu Ronghua said.

Sun Yimin gasped in shock. No wonder, this guy wants to gather people on the world channel, and it's not easy to find a super god like Bengang. Sun Yimin took a look at this Gongsun Yu by the way, and his combat power was as high as 250,000, and his profession was spell Emei. I remember when I first joined the gang, Liu Ronghua introduced this person - he was his right-hand man.

And Yue'er's combat power is just over 200,000, which is just enough.

At this time, Sun Yimin saw a familiar name appear in Liu Ronghua's team: "Mo Lan Xue Yan". asked Liu Ronghua curiously: "Why didn't you bring your sister goddess?" ”

"I don't dare to go even if I call her, this dungeon boss has high damage, and her little combat power can't support my health."

"Baihua's profession is a logistics profession, mainly to provide healing services, is her own combat power important?" Sun asked.

"Baihua's combat power may not be very important, mainly because her weapons are not good." Liu Ronghua said.

"Baihua's healing ability is determined by her weapons, the priestess's weapon forging level is not enough, her healing ability is limited, and she has no resurrection skills. Only those who have reached the maximum level of forging have the resurrection skill. ”

Sun Yimin nodded. I think I've heard this mentioned before.

At this time, Liu Ronghua added: "This Mo Lan is still invited for the sake of the goddess's face." Don't you know how popular big are now? Invite dungeons everywhere, because the dungeon is difficult and requires a strong healing ability. ”

Sun Yimin secretly thought: The operators of this game also took great pains to make money: deliberately launched new copies and new equipment to attract players, but set the difficulty of the dungeon to a very high level, forcing some players to spend money to improve their combat power for the new equipment of their dreams.

Although the combat attributes of the new equipment are definitely better than those of level 60 equipment, wearing them on the character will definitely increase the combat power. But the problem is that in order to get new level 70 equipment, the player character must first have a relatively high combat power.

It's a pretty winding pit. But at this moment, he had to admit that he was also very curious about this new copy and wanted to try it. What's more, I really crave this level 70 equipment, especially the weapon. If you can get your hands on it, the fight will definitely be a lot more enjoyable.

But the reality is that with his combat power, he can only sigh at this new copy and new weapon.

"Looks like I'm out of touch with this copy." Sun Yimin sighed.

"No, when your combat power slowly rises in the future, you can challenge."

"Don't comfort me, more than 200,000 combat power, if I don't spend money, then I have to wait until the Year of the Monkey."

"If you want to spend it in a hurry, you can charge it!"

"I don't have that much money."

Liu Ronghua spread his hands and was noncommittal. At this point, the party has been assembled, and a new dungeon has begun.

This Zhuolu Phantom War copy has just been launched for a day, and so far, it seems that no one on the World Channel has exploded a golden weapon in it. (Please go to (1)(7)К to read the original version of the work.) οΌ‰

Sun Yimin noticed that a message from the world channel in the information column caught Sun Yimin's attention: "Freshly baked [Drunken Flower Yin], 25,000 gold coins, someone or?" ”

The [Drunken Flower Yin] in the text message is displayed in purple font. Sun Yimin hovers the mouse over it, and a small text box will automatically pop up, showing the attributes of the equipment.

Name:Drunken Flower Yin (purple font)

Occupation requirements: Overlord;

Level requirements: 70;

Physical Attack: 9691

Spell Attack:β€”β€”

Critical Strike Chance: 9885

Attack Penetration:β€”β€”

Physical Penetration 9499

Fatal:β€”β€”

Forging Level: +0

Only then did Sun Yimin understand that this weapon was the level 70 weapon dropped by the final boss of the new dungeon "Zhuolu Phantom War". And it's exclusive to the Overlord profession.

On the right side of this text box, the system also lists the same type of equipment that Sun Yimin's character is currently wearing with another text box:

Name:Youlan Cao (gold font)

Occupation requirements: Overlord;

Grade requirements: 60;

Physical Attack: 11326

Spell Attack:β€”β€”

Critical Strike Chance: 11668

Physical Penetration: 11066

Spell Penetration:β€”β€”

Lethal: 0%

Forging Level: +7

After comparison, it can be seen that the combat attributes of the level 60 weapon of gold quality after forging are not much stronger than that of the level 70 "rough" purple weapon.

Sun Yimin remembered that when the weapon on his body was still in a rough state, the combat attributes were basically more than 8,000 points, that is to say: the combat attributes of the 60 gold equipment were worse than those of the 70 purple equipment.

It is no wonder that this player in the world dared to offer a price of 25,000 gold coins. This is a bit more expensive than the current level 60 golden weapon.

At this time, Sun Yimin asked tentatively: "How much is the minimum to sell?" ”

"It's been bought by Xingtian." The other party replied.

This punishment day is really a local tyrant.

"Anyway, it's not cost-effective to buy a purple one for 10,000 gold coins." Sun Yimin thought to himself, "It's just that this purple weapon is still so popular, and if you think of the golden 70 weapon, it must be an artifact that everyone in the world is eager to have!" I don't know if it will really come out at that time, and what sky-high price it can sell. ”

is not eligible to participate in the challenge of the new dungeon, and the goddess is not online today, Sun Yimin has nothing to do, so he plans to go to the field alone to collect medicinal materials.

Collecting medicinal herbs and crafting medicines together are two life-level skills in the game world.

Speaking of this life skill, it is also one of the most important sources of livelihood for civilian players in the game world. Sun Yimin didn't plan to spend RMB, in order to increase the income of the virtual world, he had to learn to be a goddess and self-reliant.

There are four types of life skills: medicine collection, pharmacy; and mining (gem ore) and refining (into rough stones).

This life skill also needs to be leveled, and it is currently divided into levels 1-6. Originally, you could only collect level 1 medicinal materials on the level 10 map, and the collected medicinal materials could only make low-level red medicine and blue medicine, and the recovery ability was relatively poor, and generally no one bought it, so you could only drink it yourself.

It's not difficult to upgrade your life skills, as long as you keep collecting and making medicines, you can accumulate experience points to upgrade. Now that he has reached level 5, he has chosen to collect potions on the coast of the South Seas on the level 50 map.

He collected for nearly 1 hour in a row, and his back hurt until he was picking, and he couldn't help but sigh that the part-time job in this game world was actually more tiring than moving bricks in the real world.

He stopped to rest, and by the way, watched Liu Ronghua challenge the new dungeon "Zhuolu Phantom War". It's been more than an hour, and it doesn't seem like he's done yet.

Liu Ronghua was busy swallowing clouds and spitting fog, and the cigarette butts kept piling up in the ashtray on the desktop.

The second-hand smoke he spit out without scruples also choked Sun Yimin. Especially when Liu Ronghua was busy operating, the dark blue smoke emitted by the natural burning of tobacco at his fingertips was particularly dazzling and pungent, and it floated into Sun Yimin's eyes and prompted tears.

Sun Yimin sighed: His years of quitting smoking have been ruined by this guy. Just because Liu Ronghua fed him second-hand smoke every day, the harm is estimated to be not much less than smoking in person.

He secretly planned to move the computer to his room to play games in the future. But helplessly, there is no network socket on the wall of my room.

He plans to connect a long network cable from the router in the living room to his room, but he thinks the wiring is a big problem - it must be considered that the network cable will not get in the way of walking. (Note: There were no wireless network cards and wireless routers in those days.) οΌ‰
