Chapter 7: Real Games
"Dragons are the beginning and the end of everything."
"Dragons create worlds and destroy them."
"In the beginning and the end, in the creation and destruction, a creature called itself man was born."
Gradually, humans began to be dissatisfied with being controlled by dragons, and gradually, some people learned to make weapons, weapons that could harm dragons, and they began to try...... Slay the dragon. ”
"After countless sacrifices and failures, an ancient dragon was finally defeated by the brave among the humans."
"The brave man who defeated the ancient dragon, was given the title of the ancient dragon slayer by his people, and gained the power of the dragon."
"However, the fallen dragon souls have scattered into the wider world, giving birth to countless dragonborn creatures with ancient dragon bloodlines."
"Ancient dragons were born before the world, they have no feelings of hatred, they are not even living beings, but the dragonborns who were born by absorbing the dragon soul have deeply engraved the hatred of the ancient dragon's killing into their souls."
"Since then, the war between humans and dragons has begun......"
……
In Chenglong Village, most of the "players" who chose to enter the village appeared alone in Chenglong Village.
As soon as they entered the village, in front of them, a middle-aged man with sword eyebrows and eagle eyes appeared, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, he told the story of humans and dragons.
Although the middle-aged man had tried his best to pretend to be amiable, the corners of his stiff mouth and slightly trembling eyes still inadvertently revealed a trace of hideousness and stiffness.
It looks like an NPC that is stuck in a bug.
Coupled with his intermittent, sentence by sentence speech method, the performance of the village chief of Jian Jin directly brought people a feeling of being completely distracted.
However, no one cares whether the village chief of Chenglong Village, named Jian Jin, has practiced his acting skills well, because everyone knows that what the village chief is talking about is the truth behind the comet fall.
Except for those who made the wrong choice in a panic and came to Chenglong Village, almost everyone listened carefully to the explanation of the village chief of Jian Jin.
From this speech, which lasted for more than two hours, players also got three important messages.
First of all, the passage of time in Chenglong Village is completely different from the passage of time on Earth.
In Chenglong Village, no matter how long the player consumes, when they leave Chenglong Village, the player will also appear on the same time on the earth where they left when they left.
Moreover, the aging of the players' bodies is carried out according to the passage of time on Earth.
This means that no matter how long the player stays in Chenglong Village, even if it is a hundred years, they will only have spent this period of great change on Earth.
Secondly, when the players return to Earth, they will be faced with a new Earth, which has become the "hunting ground" described by the village chief of Jian Jin.
In the hunting grounds, all animals and plants will be affected by the power of the fallen dragon soul and become a new species.
And if humans want to maintain their position as the overlord of the earth, they must defeat these mutated beasts and dragonborns, otherwise...... can only become their prey.
Finally, when the players return to Earth, they will also be blessed with the power of the Dragon Soul.
Thanks to the power of the Dragon Soul, players will also have a layer of protection similar to the health in the game.
This layer of protection varies depending on the amount of dragon soul power the player has, and as with most games, if it is weakened, it can be restored naturally or quickly by using other means such as potions.
Until this layer of protection is completely gone, the player's body will not be really harmed by being attacked.
In addition, the power of the dragon soul can also improve the player's physical fitness to a certain extent.
By hunting monsters in the hunting ground area, humans can absorb the power of the dragon soul from the dead monster, thereby enhancing the power of the dragon soul in their own body.
To put it simply, humans have experience points in the game from now on, and as long as they kill monsters, they can get more experience points and improve their strength.
As for what kind of help Chenglong Village can provide to players, it is actually similar to the novice village in the game.
In Chenglong Village, players can learn how to use various weapons, as well as alchemy, forging, gathering, planting, and battle songs...... Even, magic!
It can be said that almost all the skills and abilities related to the power of the dragon soul can be learned by players in Chenglong Village.
Considering that the time that players can stay in Chenglong Village is still almost infinite, many people are ready to study in Chenglong Village Middle School for a few years after listening to the words of Village Chief Jian Jin.
However, when it comes time to actually start learning these skills, players realize that things are not as simple as they think.
Reality and games are still different after all.
This is perfectly reflected in most people's first choice - weapon training.
……
In the modern earth, almost few people can use cold weapons to fight anymore, even if it is a method with a kitchen knife, not everyone can master it.
Among these people who entered Chenglong Village, there were even fewer people who had mastered the use of cold weapons.
Therefore, when Jian Jin led the players to the training ground and began to learn how to use weapons, most people felt the huge gap between reality and ideals.
In fact, learning the training of using weapons is actually quite simple.
Jian Jin just led the people who had chosen the weapons they wanted to use to the corresponding shooting range.
The target of a one-handed cutting weapon is a stake that is slightly thicker than a wrist, and the target of a two-handed cutting weapon is a stake that is slightly thicker than a normal person's thigh.
As long as players are able to use their own weapons and cut the target in front of them in half with one blow, they are considered to have completed the initial cutting weapon training.
Strike weapons are similar, except that the shape of the target changes from a cylindrical shape to an irregular sphere.
As long as the player is able to smash the target in front of them with a single blow, the initial strike weapon training is completed.
This kind of training seems simple, but among the players who enter Chenglong Village, there is no one who can successfully complete it in one go.
Those who feel that their hands are stronger, except that the tiger's mouth is shocked more painful than ordinary people, they do not get much better results than ordinary people.
These targets are made of real solid wood, and they are by no means easily destroyed by ordinary people with their strength.
