Chapter 2: The World of Mythology
Li Yue drove away, the words "Mythical World" made Lu Xiaofeng a little stunned, he had been helping his mother in the vegetable field for three days of rebirth, and forgot that "Mythical World" was launched today. He didn't mix well in games before he was reborn, but he became a professional gamer after graduating from college, and he spent ten years in games, and his mind was full of game-related content.
"Mythical World" is the world's only holographic virtual online game, and there have been rumors on the Internet that "Mythical World" is not developed by earthlings, but technology left over from ancient humans. Because before the launch of "Mythical World", archaeologists successively found ancient ruins in the Bermuda Triangle, Indonesia's Java Valley, Changbai Mountain Tianchi and other places, and even found ancient human fossils, proving the existence of ancient humans.
The fossils found in various places can even be found in mythological stories, so people believe that mythological characters are actually ancient humans, who once lived on the earth.
The game is based on the mythological stories of various countries, for example, the main game of the game in Huaxia is the story of Journey to the West, and other mythological stories exist in the form of copies.
There are five major races in Huaxia District, namely the human race, the witch race, the demon race, the ghost race and the spirit race. The demon clan has hundreds of species such as tiger demons, bull demons, dog demons, etc., the ghost clan has branches such as lonely souls, resentful ghosts, rakshasas, yakshasas, and Shura, and the spirit clan has different choices such as grass spirits, wood spirits, and flower spirits, and the witch clan also has branches corresponding to the twelve ancestors of the ancients.
When Lu Xiaofeng entered the game in his previous life, he chose the demon clan, and the Huaxia District was based on the Journey to the West story, and the protagonist of the Journey to the West story was undoubtedly Sun Monkey, so he chose the monkey spirit. There are not a few players like him who choose monkey spirits because of Sun Monkey, and they fought side by side with Sun Monkey when Heavenly Court defeated Huaguo Mountain, but it was useless......
The so-called hot must die, there are more players who choose monkey spirits, and the resources suitable for the development of monkey spirits have become scarce, and upgrades will have to pay a greater price.
Demon players need to upgrade from a 0-level monster to a second-order monster, first of all, they must upgrade their level to level 10, and secondly, they must absorb enough sun and moon essence, that is, complete advanced tasks. The first advance of the Monkey Spirit requires Clover, Moonflower Fruit, and Laurel Branch, and there are millions of Monkey Spirit players in the early game, and every player needs it, which will inevitably drive the price of these three items skyrocketing.
In Lu Xiaofeng's previous life, because the price of the items needed for the Monkey Spirit's advancement was too high, it took three months to successfully advance to the monster. This is only the first time to advance, and the items used for each advancement in the future are more precious, and he spends most of his time in the game fighting for advanced items, if it weren't for the extreme popularity of "Mythical World", it would be difficult for him to mix and clothe.
Each race in the game has a natural skill, and the monkey spirit has a life talent of herding horses, which can earn money by raising Pegasi. Because there are too many monkey players, this talent doesn't make much sense, and there are more players raising Pegasi, which will inevitably lead to a drop in the price of Pegasus, and this line of work will be unprofitable.
"If you continue to be a professional gamer, you must not choose the monkey spirit, and there is really no future for following the crowd."
Lu Xiaofeng was reborn in the graduation season, and he didn't think about what he should do for the time being, but he went to the vegetable market every day to help his mother. In the past, he disdained to do this, thinking that sooner or later he would get ahead and make a lot of money so that his mother could live a good life, and there was no need to waste time doing inconspicuous little things.
Now he doesn't think like that, people can't always think about the future, at least the only thing he can do now is to help his mother.
"Xiaofeng, you are already a senior in college, spend more time reviewing for the civil service exam, I can be busy alone."
His mother's words interrupted Lu Xiaofeng's thoughts, and he grinned and said, "I haven't decided whether to take the test yet, and besides, I can review at night, and I don't have anything to do during the day." ”
"Aunt Sichuan said that her girl has thousands of months and months, so she wants you to take the test, Mom doesn't know so much, you just have to figure out what you want to do."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled and didn't speak, Aunt Sichuan is a Sichuan person who sells tofu next to her mother, because she has the same surname as her mother, Lu Xiaofeng calls her aunt. Her daughter is a few years older than Lu Xiaofeng, and she was admitted to the civil service last year, and she likes to show her mother how well her daughter is treated, and her mother also has the idea of letting him take the civil service exam.
He doesn't like restraint by nature, and he never had the idea of applying for the civil service examination, because he was afraid that his mother would be disappointed. It's the senior graduation season, and it's really time to plan for the future, if you want to be unconstrained, you can only be a freelancer, but what can you do?
Three hundred and sixty lines, there are many ways to make money, but not everyone is suitable. Lu Xiaofeng is unwilling to work from 9 to 5, and he has no special expertise, he only became a professional gamer in his previous life, and after being reborn, his advantage is that he has ten more years of game memory, and there is no better choice than being a professional gamer.
In his previous life, he didn't mix well in "Mythical World", but Lu Xiaofeng has always worked hard, and he spends time reading game guides on the forum every day. After being reborn, you have to rely on the game to make money, and the strategy in your memory has become the biggest reliance, and if you have a strategy, you can take a piece of tofu and kill him.
After the peak period of grocery shopping, there were fewer people in the vegetable market, and Lu Xiaofeng, who had made up his mind to continue to be a professional gamer, left the vegetable market and came to an Internet café not far away.
The special helmet for "Mythical World" is expensive, the game does not have a closed beta, and players don't know if it is worth the investment, so they prefer to try it in an Internet café first. Internet cafes have long been full, and players are reluctant to spend 100,000 soft girl coins to buy game helmets, but because of the recent myth craze, they are full of expectations for "Mythical World".
Although the Internet fee is as high as 30 yuan an hour, and the more than 300 seats in the Internet café are all full, Lu Xiaofeng has to wait with peace of mind if he wants to enter the game. There is a large screen in the center of the Internet café, and if the player turns on the allow recording mode, the large screen will play the player's game clips, so that players who do not have a helmet for the time being can understand the game.
Through the big screen, Lu Xiaofeng found that the monkey spirit was very popular, and there were more than 300 players in the Internet café, and more than 80 people chose the monkey spirit. There are hundreds of characters to choose from in "Mythical World", and a quarter of the people in the Internet café choose monkey spirits, which shows the popularity of monkey spirits.
After entering the game, players want to change races, only to complete the reincarnation task, drink Meng Po soup and reincarnate through the six reincarnations, and all the rank levels are cleared. The task of reincarnation is extremely difficult, and with everything starting all over again after reincarnation, few players have the courage to do so. In his previous life, Lu Xiaofeng discovered the disadvantages of the monkey spirit when he reached the tenth level, but he didn't have the courage to reincarnate and start over, thinking that he would get better after passing the hurdle of advancement, and as a result, he fell deeper and deeper on the path of the monkey spirit......
Most of the players who did not choose the monkey spirit were women, and female players were more interested in the spirits. Among the six major races in Huaxia District, the demon race and the spirit race are the most classified, and women naturally like flowers and plants, and they have a soft spot for grass and tree elves.
Lu Xiaofeng lost interest after watching it for a while, players were exposed to holographic virtual online games for the first time, and most of them performed very poorly. Because he didn't get on the camera, he was thinking about whether to go home first and come back in the early hours of the morning to charter an all-nighter, but at this time he saw a beautiful woman take off her game helmet.
There was obvious disgust on the beauty's face, it turned out that there were two large smoking guns sitting next to her, and the Internet café had a sign prohibiting smoking, but the two chose to ignore it, causing smoke to fill the beauty around. Because of her reluctance to smoke second-hand smoke and her initial understanding of "Mythical World", the beauty has decided to buy a game helmet, so she chooses to get off the plane.
The people waiting in the Internet café were attracted by the big screen, and they didn't find anyone getting off the plane, Lu Xiaofeng was lucky. After the beauty got off the plane, he got the game helmet for iris scanning and identity binding, and he heard the familiar system prompt: "Welcome to the mythical world, rookie, you need to choose a name for yourself first." ”
"Crazy Second Master." The guys in the dormitory are more wicked, when playing games, the boss Chu Poqin is called Uncle Qin, the third Zhao Jin is called Jin Sanye, and the second-ranked Lu Xiaofeng is naturally the second master of Feng.
Because "wind" and "crazy" are homophonic, it just so happened that Lu Xiaofeng had a crazy energy in his bones, so he simply changed it to the crazy second master.
"The name can be used, respected player crazy second master, next you need to choose the race."
As soon as the scene changed in front of him, Lu Xiaofeng appeared in a new space, and there were five creatures in the space besides him. The five creatures represent the five races in the game, the three-legged golden crow represents the demon race, the hundred-legged giant represents the witch race, the fierce asura represents the ghost race, the scholar holding a folding fan represents the human race, and the beautiful fairy wearing a garland represents the spirit race......
Lu Xiaofeng chose the monkey spirit in his previous life, and he decided not to play the monkey spirit in this life, but there are hundreds of races in the mythical world, and the specific race to choose has not yet been decided. There are strategies about each race in his memory, each race has its own strengths, and he has to consider which race to choose is more conducive to his own development.
Because he played the demon clan in his previous life, he first chose the three-legged golden crow and checked the two hundred and seventy-eight classifications of the demon clan. The game is based on the story of Journey to the West, and the demon clan is more close to the big demon entrenched in various mountains, and it is easy to get a task from the demon king, but as the game plot progresses, it will stand on the opposite side of the Tang monk and apprentice.
The characteristics of the demon race are that there are two forms after the second-order transformation, the humanoid state is good at spell attacks, and the beast state is strong in the flesh. However, the demon clan was relatively weak in the early stage, and the demon clan that had not yet transformed could not practice spells without a primordial god, and the melee combat was far inferior to the strong witch clan, and the upgrade was quite hard.
Another feature of the demon race is evolution, players can only choose ordinary demon races when they enter the game, if they are lucky enough to evolve into a flood of desolation aliens, the physical body can even be compared with the witch race. For example, the monkey spirit chosen by Lu Xiaofeng, if any player takes the shit luck and evolves into the four monkeys of the mixed world, he can use Sun Wukong as a growth template.
