Chapter 272: Machines and Trust
I have to say that Lin Zhi, who has learned to charge with an angry axe, has greatly increased his ability to control the field, and he doesn't need to lift the pot to save himself from immobilization, so that the battle with the orc team is also much smoother.
It took nearly two hours, and the four of them finally defeated all the orc troops and returned to the Mayi Fortress. Found Pingba, the commander of the Yan Wang Army, and the four of them delivered the tasks one by one, and obtained some battle merit medals and orc attack dungeon rewards.
Open the dungeon rewards, and the four of them have obtained some precious gems or materials, Zi Feng's is an archery soul, Lin Zhi's is two +3 physical hit gems, Ye Xi's is four +2% melee attack power gems, and the pot to save the world is two +3 elemental magic resistance gems.
"Pick up the pot, your blood volume should be 50,000." Lin Zhi looked at the gem he had obtained, and then said to the pot on the side. During the battle, Lin Zhi also discovered that almost all of the blood volume of the pot to save the world was above 80%.
"Well, a little more than fifty thousand." The pot nodded and replied calmly.
"Zifeng, if you're lucky, you can consider synthesizing a high-level Archery Soul Enchantment Scroll." Ye Xi looked at the items sent by Zifeng, and then said with a smile. Zifeng also smiled slightly.
After collecting the items obtained, Lin Zhi and the four of them went to the VIP square, and after receiving the three magic sword cave copy reset scrolls, they entered the magic sword cave and started to do today's copy task.
Fighting until nearly ten o'clock in the evening, Lin Zhi and the four of them completed today's magic sword cave dungeon task, and also used up three copies to reset the scroll, luck was okay, and obtained 5 Zilin weapons, which were consigned by Lin Zhi on the exchange.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Li Xin sent the 52 million copper coins that his team had obtained today. Quickly received, used these copper coins to initiate the task of purchasing building materials, and then used today's experience scroll, Lin Zhi continued to farm monsters with the three of Zifeng.
"President, have you seen Jidian today?" Seeing that several people were fighting calmly, he asked curiously.
"No, he won't see us." Lin Zhi replied a little helplessly.
"It's a real pity, if we can let him join the team, we will have the capital to win the first-class team." When he heard this, he was also a little disappointed, and then said.
"Well, I'll try it again tomorrow, I'm sincere to the golden stone, and I believe that Jidian is not a hard-hearted person." Lin Zhi nodded, Lin Zhi also had some expectations for this professional gamer teammate.
The battle continued until it was close to twelve o'clock in the evening, and Lin Zhi went to Taoyuan Village. Looking at a black bottle in his hand, Lin Zhi smiled helplessly. Since this strange bottle was obtained, the gods have never bothered to ask about it, and Lin Zhi also intends to keep it as a special item.
Lin Zhi quickly went to the activity location of the little wild boar, and after setting up the offline hang-up, he went offline. After a brief wash, Lin Zhi was ready to sleep.
At eight o'clock the next morning, Lin Zhi and the three of them went to breakfast together and started breakfast.
"Senior Brother Lin, Zifeng, you said that if Jidian still doesn't want to see us today, what should we do?" Ye Xi sat down in an empty seat, and then said with some unconfidence.
"Don't worry, if it really doesn't work, I have one last resort." Zifeng didn't hesitate and said calmly. Hearing Zifeng's words, Lin Zhi and Ye Xi were also much more relieved, and continued to eat.
After breakfast, the three of them walked together to the community where Jidian was located, and when they came to the fourth floor, Zifeng stepped forward and knocked on the iron door.
"Go back, I said I wouldn't play again." The young man's voice came again, resolute.
"Brother Tao, do you know Lou Yijun? He asked me to give you a word. Zifeng looked at Lin Zhi and Ye Xi, and no longer hesitated, showing his hole cards.
"What did he say?" The young man said in a somewhat relaxed tone.
"He asked me to tell you, don't dwell on the past, people have to live in the present." Zi Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the other party's reply, and then said.
After Zi Feng finished speaking, several people fell into a short silence.
"Come in and talk." After a while, the door creaked open, and a young man in a white coat and gray trousers appeared in the field of vision.
"You are Jidian, I am Lin Zhi, the president of Fengyun, this is Ye Xi, the vice president, and this is also the vice president, called Zifeng." Lin Zhi looked at the young man who was slightly older than himself, and then said.
"Sit down, I am what you call Jidian, that is, Tao Wanlei." The young man invited the three into the house and briefly introduced himself.
"Brother Tao, what have you been busy with lately?" Zifeng looked at the decoration of the room, and then asked.
"Read a book at home every day and do a workout in the morning. Empire, right? A new game from Destiny Games? Tao Wanlei said calmly.
"Yes, now many well-known gamers have joined, and Wen Jian and Fang Geque have also created their own guilds." Zifeng nodded, and then said. For the other party to take the initiative to bring up the topic of the empire, Lin Zhi and the others were also a little surprised.
"I've decided that I won't touch the game again, so I might be going to disappoint you." Tao Wanlei still insisted on his opinion and said unhurriedly.
"Brother Tao, can I ask you the reason for your retirement?" Zifeng was also unwilling to give up, and tried to ask.
"Since you were called by Yijun, it's nothing to tell you, I have lost trust in the machine and don't want to touch the game equipment anymore." Tao Wanlei's tone was also much looser, and he really said some inside information.
"Why does Brother Tao have such an idea?" When Lin Zhi heard this, he was also a little curious about what happened to Tao Wanlei. Lin Zhi also found out in the room that Tao Wanlei's room had no TV or computer, just some wooden furniture and decorations.
"This was two years ago, when I was the top mage in the world, so I was invited to test the new helmet of Destiny Games with a close friend of mine." Tao Wanlei also stopped selling Guan Zi and slowly told the truth.
"Originally, this was a very common test, and there was nothing unusual about the other players who were invited to test it, but it was wrong with my friend."
"Just when we finished the test and were about to quit the game, my friend couldn't quit, as you know, the game helmet and the player's nervous system interact, if you force out, it may hurt the brain." Speaking of this, Tao Wanlei showed some painful expressions.
"Destiny Games quickly contacted the helmet maker, but there was no way to solve it, so I had to send my friend to the hospital. Later, it was said that my friend's consciousness was left in a closed map, unable to return to reality, and now ...... Still lying in the hospital like a vegetative person. The pain on Tao Wanlei's face became a little heavier, and his words trembled a little.
"Although Destiny Games gave me a lot of compensation afterwards, I lost a good friend forever." When Tao Wanlei said this, he revealed a deep sense of loss.
"Since then, I've lost trust in this cold machine, and I don't want to see this kind of machine go wrong at a critical moment." In the end, Tao Wanlei said with a little unwillingness.
"Brother Tao, I can understand your mood to some extent, when you encounter this kind of accident, anyone who has a heart will be painful." Zifeng smiled bitterly, and then said.
For the rest of the day, the four of them chatted casually, but they all avoided the game.
"Brother Tao, if you have time to come out and get in touch with the new era, if you can, we will chat together at the nearby Yinhua coffee shop tomorrow morning." As she left, Zifeng said simply. Tao Wanlei just nodded noncommittally.
After having lunch at a nearby restaurant, Lin Zhi and the three returned to their residence together.
"What now? Are we going to give up the purpose of this trip? In Zifeng and Lin Zhi's room, Ye Xi said.
"Of course we won't give up, I think we have two ways." Zifeng said in a planned manner. When Lin Zhi and Ye Xi heard this, they both cast inquiring looks.
"The first way is to find a way to make Jidian's friends sober, if you can give the other party hope, then Jidian will definitely do its best to achieve it." Zifeng said quickly.
"If there was such a method, I would have tried it a long time ago, and it might be difficult for us to find it." Lin Zhi also quickly said his analysis.
"The second way is to let Jidian regain trust in the machine, and as long as he still believes in the machine, then he may return to the game world again." Zi Feng said unhurriedly.
"It's a bit more feasible, but we need to prepare for it, and there's no chance of absolute success." Ye Xi thought for a while, and then said.
"We can find both methods together, so I left some time for both Jidian and us, now let's assign the task." Zifeng said with some consideration.
"The first method can be found in two ways, one is the map settings of the Destiny game, and the other is the interaction system of the device. The second method is to collect some of the noble deeds and contributions of some machines to people. Purple Wind quickly spoke his mind.
"I'm fairly familiar with the Destiny Game, so I'll find the first method, Brother Lin, you and Xi Yuan will be responsible for collecting the information of the second method." Zifeng decisively chose the first method and said.
Lin Zhi and Ye Xi also have no opinions, Zifeng has already made the most difficult choice, and both of them are much easier.
After assigning the task, the three of them went to a nearby Internet café and began to collect information. It took more than two hours, Lin Zhi and Ye Xi also completed their tasks, and then decided to help Zifeng collect some information.
After collecting until seven o'clock in the evening, the group finally completed their task, and then simply ate dinner and returned to their respective rooms.
