Chapter 197: Champion to Rookie

"Ding Gradual! Ding Gradual! Ding Gradual! Ding Gradual! A tidal wave of cries rang out in the WCG2020 audience. This is the World Finals of StarCraft2 in the WCG2020 held in Nantong, Jiangsu Province on October 10, 2020. In the soundproof room on both sides, on one side is a big boy who looks very handsome and handsome, he looks very nervous, and the mouse and keyboard in his hand are constantly pressed with his hand, this person is last year's WCG champion, South Korean player Cent Choi Gaoran, nicknamed Penny. On the other hand, there is a more ordinary-looking boy, don't look at his average appearance, he has won the championship of Dota 2 for three consecutive years, and he has the most female fans among all e-sports players, this person is XiaoJ Ding gradually from the Chinese cc team.

On the big screen at the scene, the current big score is XiaoJ's 1:0 temporary lead over Cent. In the map, XiaoJ's Phoenix fighter has been patrolling the sky, and Cent Allosaurus is constantly harassing XiaoJ's sub-base. The two sides come and go, and they show their own operations. The audience also exclaimed one after another. Suddenly, one of XiaoJ's carriers carrying its passengers slowly and quietly flew into the Zerg sub-base. Almost at the same time, a group of berserkers appeared next to Cent's sub-base through the dimensional prism. Sneak attack, Cent reacted suddenly, with a slight touch on his hand, and the audience at the scene saw that it was a group of explosive insects, and it seemed that Cent had been prepared. "Trap!" The audience shouted, but XiaoJ, who was in the soundproof room, obviously couldn't hear it. However, his face was not flustered, and he saw that he had formed a team and operated the berserker to assault the Zerg mine. On the other side, the phoenix took the initiative to attack the alien dragon.

The carrier ship also decisively put down the contents inside, and was stunned that it was 2 sanctuary. Lightning, I saw 3 lightning appear at the same time, one was on the edge of the Zerg base on the side of the king insect group, and the other was scattered on the explosion insects all over the sub-base, and in the melee on the other side, the indiscriminate lightning destroyed countless phoenixes and alien dragons. XiaoJ was obviously a premeditated "discharge" behavior. "Beautiful!" The audience applauded. However, Cent is not so easy to defeat, and in front of the berserker, the ultimate class of the Zerg suddenly appeared - the Thunder Beast and a team of stinging snakes. Cent, who wanted to fight many times, had long expected XiaoJ's action. A smile appeared on Cent's face, and the Thunderbeast leaped and leaped towards the ant-like berserker. Of course, the thunder beasts in front of them couldn't withstand the onslaught of a bunch of berserkers, but the stinging snake guards of the thunder beasts cleared out this group of fanatical star spirit warriors one by one.

Seeing that the strangulation was about to be completed, a spectator in the "Quick Look" arena suddenly shouted. Where the audience's eyes gathered, they saw several black shadows gliding through the group of Cent's stinging snakes, slashing two times, and one by one the stinging snakes fell to the ground in an instant. Seeing the dark hall again, XiaoJ's favorite class really appeared. XiaoJ once said on one occasion that the Dark Hall was like an ancient Chinese assassin. "Kill one person in ten steps, leave no trace for a hundred miles." And XiaoJ himself is undoubtedly one of the few people in the world who has the most perfect application of the dark hall, and on the other hand, the berserker immediately returns to the base to restore his energy value. Cent's troops have been reduced a lot, and XiaoJ's style of play has begun to become ferocious. As several bolts of lightning appeared in Cent's allosaurus, XiaoJ's berserker rushed to Cent's sub-base again in high spirits. “GG!” Cent is played in the public frequency! "Win!!" XiaoJ clenched his fists. And the voices from the audience shouting Ding gradually became louder and louder. Ding gradually walked out of the soundproof room, shouting tears and bowing to the audience below. "We won!" It was the loudest sound he left on the WCG stage.

That night, at the famous Nantong Hotel in Nantong, a group of young people sat around a table. In the middle was XiaoJ Ding Gradual, the WCG2020 champion and winner of the Dota 2 and SC2 championships, and a slightly chubby lewd boy sitting next to him said slightly depressed: "Xiao Gradual, are you sure you want to retire?" ”

"Senior brother, you know me, my biggest dream before was to complete the 3 consecutive championships in Dota 2 and win two championships in one WCG, and now these two dreams have come true, and I am satisfied."

It turned out that this fat man turned out to be the captain of the WCGDOTA2 championship team, known as CC_game Luoxi, who was known as the "late obscene stage". I saw him nod slightly, and asked with concern: "Then what do you plan to do in the future?" ”

"Go home and stay unemployed." Ding gradually showed his white teeth.

"WCG Champions are going home and unemployed!" A glasses brother next to him joked wittily. "Anyway, I haven't admired others much, but you are someone I really admire, no matter what, your game talent is indeed higher than mine." It was CC's core player mist who spoke.

"Talent, that's a lazy person's statement, you have to know that when you are playing online games, my junior brother Xiao Yan is still training, and success is not so easy!" You Xi said to Mist.

"Captain, our team is about to be disbanded, so don't hit me anymore, okay? Besides, there are girls in online games, look at our team, all of them are single! ”

"Who are you talking about?" The only female player of the CC team, and also You Xi's girlfriend TT Wang Yuting, said. "Don't spoil my brother with your villainous heart, besides, my brother also has the most female fans among all the players in China, so it's much better than your little glasses. yes, XiaoJ!"

XiaoJ scratched his head shyly, "Sister Ting, how embarrassed you are to say that." ”

"Go back and be happy, and find a beautiful woman early, you're 22 years old, and you're not too young!" TT said something very sincerely this time.

"Sister-in-law, I'll try my best!" Ding gradually could only agree. "By the way, Star, I've got your autograph here." Ding gradually handed a signature book to Star Shixing, the last member of the CC. On the cover, there are 4 English letters "Moon" written on the cover. Moon God, one of the three gods in War3 history. And Star took the name Star because he worshiped Moon.

"Thanks, we're done!"

"It's done!" Staggered, not drunk and not home.

A few days later, on a calm morning, in a calm town, a thin figure gradually elongated in the faint sunlight.

At the door of an old shop, he stopped and wiped the sweat drops on his head slightly. "Boss, a bowl of tofu brains and a baked cake!"

"Great!" After a while, a swarthy man in the store brought something to him. The man ate greedily, took out the change and handed it to the boss, and then walked towards the neighborhood outside. Suddenly, he saw a large poster with a man on the front, and in the center was the once iconic figure of Chinese e-sports, the human emperor SKY Li Xiaofeng, and the one on the left was Icefrog, the map creator of the game editor Dota 2. The one on the right is a legend in Europe.,JohnnyR, the sniper god who is praised in CS.,All three of them have quite handsome bosses.。 Underneath the three of them is a line of big characters: "Three heroes compete for hegemony, where should you go?" What should we expect when the PC project exits WCG? The man frowned slightly, "It's kind of interesting, it seems that I still have something to do!" It turned out that this was the WCG champion Ding gradually who was going home and was unemployed. He walked back slowly, took out the alien he once loved, opened the web page, and looked at it carefully.

China, the United States and Europe, the world's three major game producing cities, magically opened their first virtual games at the same time, the United States' "New World", Europe's "God of War" and China's "Jianghu", and chose to launch on the same day, November 11, 2020, Singles' Day. What's even more amazing is that the three games actually use the same advertisement, which is jointly endorsed by the legendary Chinese player SKY Li Xiaofeng, the German sniper JohnnyR, and the map creator Icefrog of the famous American game compiler Dota 2. However, there is no mention of the introduction of these three games. Ding gradually watched the various discussions below with interest, and at this time, a phone call came in.

“Hello! Ding,Howareyou?” As soon as he heard the voice, Ding gradually knew that this was the terrible guy of the ice frog. It seems that as a spokesperson, the pressure is huge! Ding gradually chatted with Icefrog enthusiastically, and sure enough, Ice Frog wanted to invite Ding gradually into the game "New World" this time.

After a conversation, Ding gradually agreed to Ice Frog's invitation to join the game "New World", developed in the United States. Of course, he also got a lot of internal information from the ice frog in advance, of course, not those particularly important information, all of which are some game design concepts and the like, and the ice frog also knows everything, of course, this is not unconditional, Ding gradually needs to help the ice frog promote this new virtual online game, but Ding gradually does not worry about this, after all, it is OK to shout in the fan group. Ding gradually just told the ice frog not to reveal his ID at the beginning, and when he grew up, he would come forward to help the ice frog promote it when he had the opportunity. The ice frog naturally agreed one by one, and said that there would be familiar people who would send Ding gradually a game helmet. Ding gradually guessed the delivery person, while going back to continue to look for information, but the information on the Internet is more scarce than the ice frog's dictation, Ding gradually knows, this time, he has become an inexperienced player, close the computer, Ding gradually scratched his head: "It seems that my world champion is now a rookie!" ”

Although he was told that someone familiar sent the peripherals, Ding gradually didn't care about it at first, it was nothing more than his group of teammates, so he went to play a few games of Dota 2 in the afternoon, after all, it was also a game that he had a lot of feelings about.

As soon as he finished playing with his favorite Priestess of the Moon, Ding gradually heard the doorbell downstairs. Ding gradually stood up and muttered, "This is coming, I don't know which pit it is." ”

Casually opening the door, Ding Gradual's expression changed suddenly. "Sister Luo?"

It was a girl about 25 or 6 years old, and the height of the high heels was about 1.75 meters, the golden wavy head looked particularly mature, and the sky blue windbreaker looked more intellectual. Seeing Ding Yan, a charming smile appeared on her delicate face.

"What, I'm not welcome?"

"How is that possible! Sister Luo, come in, come in. Ding gradually hurriedly dodged and let Sister Luo in.

Luo Lan, the team manager of the CC team, as a rare beauty in the entire e-sports circle, she is a rare non-vase party, and Ding gradually is still very grateful to this manager. When Ding gradually transformed and started to train together with Dota 2 and Interstellar 2, it was Luo Lanli who overcame public opinion and helped Ding gradually find a replacement, so that Ding gradually had time to train Interstellar 2 and finally complete his dream. So Ding gradually is still very grateful to Luo Lan.

"How can Sister Luo send me something! They know about it, don't kill me. After sitting down, Ding gradually served tea to Luo Lan, and then spoke.

"Isn't that a World Champion who cares about us, come and see!" Luo Lan took a sip of Ding Jian's tea and nodded: "Yo, boy, it's okay, this tea is good, authentic Tieguanyin!" ”

"Sister Luo, I can't compare with you, I'm just making a little fuss. The tea leaves are still from my uncle's house. Ding gradually inevitably humbled himself.

"Okay, don't pretend to be modest with me, you kid, I'm here for a purpose this time." Luo Lan didn't talk around the bush either.

"Oh? It's not going to be any more competitions! Ding Gradual's first reaction was naturally something in the team, after all, Luo Lan's main profession was a combat manager.

"Now everyone's eyes are on the three major games, and e-sports has become a lot less popular in recent years, so since you have chosen to retire, I will definitely not bother you anymore, I want to talk about the new game this time - New World." Luo Lan has always been known for getting straight to the point, and this time is no exception. Ding gradually came to the spirit when he heard it, after all, as the "old man" in the game circle, Luo Lan's connections still far exceed his own, is there any inside information?

"Don't think I have any inside information." Luo Lan obviously saw Ding Yan's thoughts, "I'm just here to tell you that this time several of your comrades-in-arms were invited by the Ice Frog. When the time comes, you can just keep your own snacks. ”

"It's okay, they'll come over here, it's not fun to play alone, right!" Ding gradually was obviously relaxed. "By the way, Sister Luo, are you coming over to play?" Ding gradually cares a lot about this beautiful manager.

"Me? Not necessarily! It depends on the mood. "Luo Lan has sold a pass." Okay, you can debug the machine first. ”

As the inviter of the ice frog, Ding gradually got a free advanced game warehouse, for this bit of a big thing, it took a little effort for Ding gradually to install, enter the game warehouse, after the iris scan is bound. Luo Lan also said goodbye and left. Ding gradually naturally had no reason to keep others, after all, he was about to start his own journey at night. For online games, it's naturally good to be able to get in a little early.

At 8 p.m. on November 11, 2020, three large-scale games will be available at the same time. Full of anticipation and curiosity, Ding gradually walked into the game warehouse and clicked the button to enter the game.

The lights slowly dimmed, and Ding gradually entered the game smoothly. As soon as he entered the game, Ding gradually saw the undead creatures in the sky chasing several Terrans. One of the Terrans was carrying a golden giant sword on his back, and he only saw that through a canyon, many Terran warriors appeared outside the canyon, which was actually an ambush of the Terrans. In a few moments, the undead creatures were sniped into the canyon. In the other direction, a group of heroic orc warriors roared and pounced on the group of ghouls, and they became more and more fierce, killing the ghouls directly. Ding gradually couldn't help muttering: "Damn, this is the sequel of Warcraft!" ”

The space was switched, the humans and the orcs established their own main cities, the main city of the human race erected the stone statue holding the golden giant sword, and the orc had a very strong stone statue of the minotaur, which must be the two main cities in China in the future. It was at this moment that a soft voice rang out: "Welcome to a new world." I'm the leader 110703. Please select your ethnicity. ”

In an instant, there was a row of characters in front of Ding Yan's eyes, flowing elves, strong orcs, wise dwarves, and the most balanced humans, among which the dwarves were temporarily unselectable. "Humans." Ding gradually decisively chose this race closest to himself.

"Humans are the most balanced race, they don't have the mental dexterity of the dwarves, the strong physique of the orcs, and the tacit understanding that the elves are born with nature, but humans are the most creative race, and I hope you can get stronger and stronger on the path of humanity. Now choose the profession you want to choose. ”

As with traditional American games, the profession is still determined from the beginning.

Seeing the excitement of the trailer, Ding gradually just paused for a while, and quickly chose a fighter.

"Career confirmation successful, please enter your name."

"CC_XiaoJ" Ding gradually entered without hesitation.

"I'm sorry, since you are in Huaxia District, your name can only be composed of Chinese characters, please fill in your name again."

"Uh... There is still such a situation. Ding gradually muttered in his heart. I couldn't think of a good name for a while.

"Please fill in your name." A soft voice reminded again.

Ding gradually thought about it in his heart, and finally gritted his teeth and entered a name: "Rookie Xiao Gradual".

"Congratulations to the player for the successful creation of the rookie Xiaochuan, the system will randomly assign you attributes and a novice village."

Ding gradually suddenly lit up again, and a new village appeared in front of him. "Player rookie Xiao Gradual, welcome to No. 1111 of the Newbie Village".

Hearing this prompt, Ding gradually smiled. This number is really a bit helpless to say.

Although he hadn't played much of the game, Ding gradually opened the package and attribute bar skillfully. Decisively in the package is the set of sets: Novice Greatsword, Inferior Weapon, Attack 0-2, Novice Warframe, Inferior Armor, Defense +1.

Ding gradually was not surprised, and quickly equipped these two cold pieces of equipment. Turned his gaze to the stats bar.

Name: Rookie Xiao Gradual

Class: Trainee Warrior

Level: 1

Number of Strength Stars: 7

Number of Physique Stars: 5

Agility Stars: 5

Intelligence Stars: 3

Qi and blood: 75

Magic: 33

Attack: 5-9

Defense: 3

Movement Speed: 300

Talents: Epiphany

Skill:

Exploration:You can completely view the attributes of ordinary monsters that are not higher than their own level 5 and bosses that are not higher than their own level 3.,The higher the level, the less information you can find.。 You can also view the information of players whose level is not higher than 5 of yourself. No consumption, no CD. Grade: Apprenticeship.

Heavy Attack: Slam the target with a weapon, dealing 110% damage and consuming mana: D: 15 seconds. Grade: Apprenticeship.

Combo: Use a weapon to attack the target twice in a row, dealing 50% damage and consuming mana: D: 10 seconds. Grade: Apprenticeship.

The attribute is quite passable, it seems that the full value is 10 attributes, this is the attribute is average, and then looked at the talent, Ding gradually said a word: "rub".

Epiphany: The rarity is unique, when killing a boss-level monster, there is a small probability of obtaining the boss's skills, and when killing ordinary monsters, there is a small probability of obtaining the monster's skills. The probability of special monsters has changed.

The classification of New World's probabilities appeared long before the game was opened, and they were divided into certain (100%), very high (less than 100% and more than 80%), high (50%-80%), average (10%-50%), low (1%-10%), tiny (0.01%-1%), very low (0.00001%-0.01%), and small (less than 0.00001%). Of course, the late luck value will affect the probability. For epiphany, there is basically a 1% to 1/10,000 probability of comprehending skills from the boss, and the probability of 1/10,000 or even less than 1/10,000 is getting skills from monsters,The key is whether the skills you comprehend are not suitable for you or another matter。

Looking at the skills of this cheating father, Ding Yan could only sigh slightly, and comforted himself: "Although it is a bit of a cheating father, it is the only one, maybe when it will go against the sky!" Forget it, it's important to upgrade. ”

After closing the attribute bar, Ding gradually walked towards the novice area, and there were many people along the way. The emergence of virtual games has naturally given a rain to people who are tired of playing those money-making games, so there are still a lot of people in the novice village, but after all, there are 3 game streams, and 5,000 novice villages in China have been invested, so the population of the novice village is not too crowded. Looking at the figures surrounding the village chief to receive the task, Ding gradually thought about it and walked towards the other NPCs.

"Give me some money, okay!" An aging voice floated from the corner. The elderly beggars in the traditional Chinese characteristics actually appeared in an American game, and it seems that the Americans' favor for the Chinese market can be imagined, of course, this has been evident since the use of panda people in the famous American game "World of Warcraft" nearly 10 years ago.

"There's got to be something wrong with this NPC!" Ding gradually thought in his heart, and walked quickly to the old man's side, but there were not a few people who thought the same as him, and like these people, Ding gradually received his first task in this game.

Beggar's Request: The hungry but meat-hungry beggar begs you to bring him some dog meat. Killing the kobold in the woods behind the village has a slight chance of bursting dog meat. Required Item: Dog Meat*10, No Time Limit, Unique Delivery, Difficulty: E-。。

Delivering a unique task means that this is a special task that can be accepted by multiple people, but only needs to be delivered once, and it becomes a unique task. After looking at the difficulty and introduction, Ding gradually picked up the sword in his hand and walked towards the back of the village.

The woods behind the village are 20 minutes away from the village, and when Ding gradually arrived at the woods behind the village, there are still many players on this map, after all, everyone knows the rarity of this task, but Ding gradually observed and found that these kobolds are still very powerful, basically 3 times can kill an ordinary level 1 player, and the movement speed is very fast, it is difficult for the archer to fly a kite to kill these kobolds, so as a rookie who is not a special rookie, Ding gradually threw the exploration technique at a kobold from a distance.
