Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Shadow of the Sword is Lingering

The answer was announced, and in March, it was written as "Earth Wing Demon, Hairy Crab", and Fengpan wrote "Firebird".

"Congratulations to both of you for passing the test." The mermaid king said with a smile, obviously very unhappy with the result of not being able to separate the two, "There is a thousand-year-old mirror hidden in the 'Eye of the Sea', which can replicate the exact same mirror image as the intruder. There are two ways to obtain the 'Stone of the Sea', one is to defeat one's own mirror image, and the other is to directly break the ancient mirror. It's a pity that with your strength, these two paths won't work. ”

"Is there any other way?" March asked.

"You are looking for the right person, there is indeed another way, this method, the whole illusion is only known to this seat." The mermaid king boasted to himself, but he didn't go down, and looked at the two of them with a smile, deliberately arousing people's appetites.

The two of them have excellent psychological quality, and they can hold their breath and wait for her to continue.

After a while, seeing that there was really no one to cheer him on, the mermaid king said: "After a long time, that mirror has a spirituality, and like you mortals, it has a problem of disliking ugliness and loving beauty." If the intruder is ugly, it is reluctant to copy. The premise is that the person himself is really ugly, and it is useless to use disguise to become ugly. ”

The two of them fell into deep thought when they heard this. Well, this is really a problem for players with extremely high average appearance......

"What's so hard about that? The little girl can be disfigured to get the 'Sea Stone', although the disguise technique can't hide the mirror, but it can be used to coax your lover. The Mermaid King laughed.

After thinking about it in March, this proposal is really vicious, what woman in the world doesn't care about her face, and what man doesn't mind the appearance of her lover? Even in the game world, even just changing the appearance of a virtual character, even if it can be disguised with a disguise, is still a great test for the player.

The two of them returned to the mermaid village by crab, silent all the way, thinking about a plan to obtain the "Sea Stone".

It wasn't until she went offline that March remembered a crucial thing and asked, "How do you know I have a firebird?" ”

"Guess." Feng Pan didn't know when to put the mask back on, probably this has become a habit, and he feels uncomfortable if he doesn't wear it.

March clasped her arms and stared straight at him, clearly not satisfied.

"Not long ago, someone in the clan passed by the outskirts of Heaven and found the body of the firebird poisoned." Feng Pan explained, "The protoss has a high mana and does not need to use poison, so I suspect that there are mortals trying to catch the firebird. There are not many mortals who can go to Penglai Island. ”

After he finished speaking, he went offline.

The reason makes sense. Although the three of Fucang appeared on firebirds, with the ability of the three of them, there was no need to poison the immortal beast at all, and only a scum like her, who was not good at fighting at all, needed to use other means. When returning to the Forgotten Corner, Feng Pan waited for a long time before summoning the mount, presumably because he was suspicious of her and tested whether she would summon the Firebird.

Unfortunately, poisoning didn't work, and she learned trapping to catch the firebird. Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind, and the tear replica she encountered in the "Eye of the Sea" didn't seem to know how to trap!

Could it be that these clones copy the character's own skills at the beginning of the game, and the skills learned by the player themselves during the game are not included?

The skill level of the clone is mostly the same as the opening setting, and if you increase the level of combat skills in an all-round way, you should be able to have an advantage.

Coupled with a wealth of combat experience, and without the need for disfigurement or anything like that, March is sure to defeat his own clone one-on-one.

After going offline, log on to the forums in March to search for posts related to skill upgrading.

The forums she frequents are not the official forums that come with the game, in fact, the official forums are a product that died out many years ago in the era of keyboard games.

The reason is simple, speech control. Any game has its shortcomings, and there is no shortage of picky players in the world, and it is even more common for players to go to forums to scold game companies. Naturally, the official will not let this kind of remarks go, and most of them will block it, or even directly review it, so that players can't post it.

In addition, because of emotional entanglements between players, some bloody things often happen, such as male players being cheated of money by a shemale account, or indulging in games that causes his girlfriend to be dissatisfied, and his girlfriend gives away powerful equipment on his account, and similar things are endless. The victim ran to the official forum to post for help, which made it difficult for the official to do, if you don't deal with it, you will be sprayed to death, and if you deal with it, it doesn't comply with the rules, and it's difficult to verify things like girlfriends on the phone.

In addition, most of the official staff are busy with game operation and development, and they don't have much time to take care of the forum, and the homepage of the forum is always full of worthless advertising posts, and most of the posts sink to the bottom after a bubble, and there is no chance for others to see it. More and more people like to post and communicate on forums set up by third-party platforms, and the lax control allows them to speak freely, and more diligent moderators are responsible for adding refined goods and cleaning up ads. Slowly, the official forum disappeared, replaced by a variety of third-party platforms, and there are all kinds of open and secret battles between platforms in order to compete for users.

Of course, this popularity is only temporary, and it may be surpassed by other platforms at any time. March has no interest in the platform, there is no loyalty, which platform is obviously ahead in popularity, she will visit which, anyway, an old player like her, has witnessed the rise and fall of countless platforms, and has accounts on several major platforms.

From keyboard games to holographic games, there's also a fading organization, the Game Guild. The change in the form of the game has made it more difficult for the guild to manage, first of all, holographic games mostly use game cabins, game helmets and other equipment, which are more expensive, and some games also need to purchase special equipment, which cannot guarantee that everyone in the guild can afford it. During the game, the player is in a state of light sleep, completely immersed in it, it doesn't matter if there is anyone around him, and it lacks the atmosphere of the previous Internet café to open a black Friday. Secondly, holographic games and keyboard games are completely different, many micro-manipulation techniques and management methods are not universal, and everyone has to learn from scratch, which shakes the status of many senior leaders in the guild. Finally, the development cost of holographic online games is high, the operation is difficult, the competition is fierce, the average life of many games in the early days is less than three months, and due to the limited server resources, it cannot carry too many people online at the same time, and the population will be sterilized when it reaches a certain number, and large guilds can only choose new servers, often just settled, and even a guild activity has not been organized, and the game will be cold, which seriously affects the cohesion of the guild. Many games are in the form of random matchmaking, which is completely unsuitable for guild development in order to limit the number of people in a team for fairness.

In short, guilds are slowly dying out, and now there are no large guilds, only some small guilds are still active, no different from family and friend groups.
