Chapter 77

Previous Chapter

In the era of keyboard games, even if a player has no skills, as long as he opens an additional account and spends eight hours a day brushing materials and copying, there is no problem in earning 3,000 yuan a month.

But in the era of holographic games, if you are still so brainless to farm gold there, you can earn 300 yuan a month, even if you are lucky.

Unlike in the era of keyboard games, exchanging game currency for RMB also requires going through a third-party website. After the holographic online game came out, everyone could easily exchange the money in the game for the money in reality, which made many student white-collar workers happy to earn some extra money for themselves while playing the game.

In the beginning, these white-collar workers and students could earn one or two hundred yuan a month from the game, but as the competition became fiercer, the price of gold kept falling.

For example, the dawn of the world's first holographic game, when the game was first launched, the gold price was also speculated to a one-to-one ratio, a gold coin can be exchanged for one dollar, and a bronze equipment or general skill book can also be sold for tens or even hundreds of dollars. A thief is lucky, and he may even be able to earn a thousand dollars by opening a superb treasure chest.

However, with the increase in the number of professional players, the price of gold coins has also plummeted, from the initial one dollar for one gold coin, but then about 17,000 gold coins can be exchanged for a 30 yuan point card. The industry is almost disappearing from the game.

The same is true for the price of equipment, in the early stage, a piece of bronze can be bought for dozens or even hundreds, but even the best dark gold equipment in the back can't be sold for a few cents.

If it weren't for the fact that those white-collar workers and student parties finally gave up the 'pocket money' of 100 yuan a month, which made the gold price increase slightly, then it is estimated that this game would not have played the gold group.

Although the last dawn only lived for about five years before it was replaced by another holographic online game, the changes that this game has brought to the entire professional player landscape are undoubtedly very huge.

After the events of the dawn, many players find that making money in the game is not as easy as they think. In the era of keyboard games, the life of being able to earn 3,000 a month by casually brushing monsters can be said to be gone. If you want to make money in the era of holographic games, hard work and diligence are not enough, and a keen sense of smell and excellent technology are also indispensable.

As a result, many traditional game studio pros have 'switched careers', and those 'new pros' with high skills and sharp minds have become the mainstream professional gamers today.

And now, the number of professional players and the number of local tyrant players have also tended to a relatively stable ratio, and there are no longer so many self-righteous players who think that they can easily earn thousands of yuan per month by spawning monsters and doing tasks.

The decline in competitors and the expansion of the gaming industry have led to a second spring for professional gamers, and the best top professional gamers can even make millions of dollars a month, something that gamers in the keyboard game era will never be able to do.

Of course, although top professional gamers can earn millions per month, this does not mean that the overall income of the professional gamer industry has increased, and the monthly income of ordinary gold team members is still only two or three thousand, which may not be higher than that of studio members in the keyboard era.

So, why did Ling Yu feel that he couldn't make money in the game when the gold exchange ratio was so transparent? In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, he does not have a regular game account and cannot log in to the official trading platform.

Now that the Cyber Information Security Law has been popularized, no matter whether it is any website or trading platform, you need proof of identity to register and log in, and even the game itself requires proof of identity under normal circumstances.

And Ling Yu's game helmet was obtained by an acquaintance through a special way, so he could enter and log in without the need for identification. Even his use of a bank account in the game was done by illegal means.

Therefore, although he can accept money transfers from others, he cannot log in to the official trading platform, so he naturally did not know that the value of gold coins in the game would be so high.

Because there were too many helpers to find, it was not easy to negotiate the distribution of benefits, so Dark Moon Wind asked Ling Yu to do other things first, and then contact him after he got it done.

System: The Scarlet Holy Moon event has ended, and you are ranked 8924th in the total contribution list, with +3658 XP, +26 in Blackwater, and +16 in the Terran faction

System: You are ranked 1st on the Rank Leaderboard, your XP is +32458, Blackwater Contribute +187, and Terran Faction Contribute +54, and you gain an in-place resurrection privilege, which can only be used in the Scarlet Holy Moon event.

Not long after the voice hung up, the settlement results of the Scarlet Holy Moon also came out.

Ling Yu, who had been replaced with three marksmen, had a significant improvement in his performance compared to yesterday, and his reputation in both the camp had been greatly improved.

While waiting, Ling Yu was not idle, but leveled up nearby.

The white tiger doesn't have to think about it, the level 30 monster is not what he can deal with now, even if he has a tiger whip that can restrain tiger creatures, it is useless.

In the Firmament Realm, level 30 is a watershed, because when you reach this level, you can perform two turns. After the second turn, players can not only get a corresponding increase in all attributes, but also improve their professional talent ability and life growth to a considerable extent, and the free attribute points obtained by each upgrade will also change from one to two.

Therefore, the combat power of players after level 30 is completely different from that before level 30, and the same is true for monsters, although the level of monsters at level 30 and monsters at level 29 is only one level apart, but the combat effectiveness is like a natural difference.

At this stage, it is estimated that the level 30 bosses killed by the player can be counted on two hands.

After purchasing a nearby map in the town, Ling Yu set his sights on the level twenty-fifth Frost Spider.

Frost spiders are aquatic creatures, and most of them usually inhabit the Tianshui River, and occasionally go to the shore to bask in the sun.

The Frost Spider's stats are not excellent, and its defense is not high, but its most headache for the player is its ability to slow down, and once it is entangled, there is basically no hope of escape. But overall, the Frost Spider is a relatively easy monster to deal with.

Riding a thousand-mile horse, Ling Yu soon came to the Tianshui River.

As one of the most famous tourist destinations in the vicinity, the environment is very beautiful, with clear water and blue sky, and the lake sparkling in the sun. Ling Yu even saw several life pro players fishing in a safe area.

After walking by the river for a while, Ling Yu saw a lone frost spider.

Frost Spider: Level 25, Attack 240, Defense 100, Health 2200

Strength 50, Dexterity 75, Constitution 50, Spirit 50, Willpower 60

Talents: Ice Resistance, Freeze Immunity, Magic Resistance, Cold Attack, Extra-Perception, Frost Shield.

Skill 1: Ice Breath, Skill 2: Ice Net.

The Frost Spider is no different from ordinary spiders in appearance, except that it is a light blue color close to snow-white, and it is much larger. It swims incredibly fast in water, and can breathe a breath of frost from its mouth, dealing high frost damage to enemies in an area in front of it and a chance to freeze the target.

The presence of super-perception allows the Frost Spider to easily detect the presence of enemies, and unless it is a rogue player with a level of fifty or above, it is impossible for the Frost Spider to sneak up on it without it noticing.

However, Ling Yu didn't think about a sneak attack, but planned to defeat him head-on.

Let Kramer, who is the main T, take the lead, and then attack by the marksman and Bertrand after holding back the hatred.

At this time, the value of the commander's aura is reflected.

If it is the normal version of the Marksman and Bertrand, it will not be able to break the defense of the Frost Spider at all, and it can only deal a little forced damage. But with the blessing of the Commander's Aura, the Marksman can deal nearly three-digit damage with each attack. Combined with two consecutive losses, it is equivalent to being able to deal more than 100 damage points per attack.

The three marksmen combined with the ballista and Bertrand to deal as much damage per second as high as 800 points, and in just one fell swoop, they killed the frost spider who was ten levels higher than him.

System: You kill the Frost Spider, target level 25, your level is level 15, you gain 200% bonus experience.

System: If you have a little Perception, you gain an additional 20% Combat XP.

System: You independently kill a monster that is 10 levels higher than you, and you get the achievement: Down Gram on I.

Lower Rank I: Independently kill a monster that is more than 10 levels higher than yourself without using props and helpers.

Effect: +2 for all attributes. When you attack monsters with a higher level than you, you get an extra bonus, which increases the damage dealt by 5% for each level you get, up to a maximum of 25% extra damage; When you are attacked by a monster with an attack higher than you, you take 2% less damage, up to a maximum of 10%. To reach the next level, you need to kill five monsters that are more than fifteen levels above yours.

Ling Yu, who saw this achievement, was obviously stunned, he didn't expect that he would get such a powerful achievement in an unintentional action. It seems that I have never heard of anyone on the Internet who has won this achievement.

It was normal for Ling Yu not to hear of this achievement, because no one but him had ever received this achievement at all.

In the Firmament Realm, the strength of monsters is often stronger than that of players of the same level, and this achievement will gradually increase as the level increases. Once you don't get this achievement in the early stage, it will be even more impossible to get it in the later stage.

Secondly, the judgment of 'independent defeat' is too harsh.

Needless to say, the way others are directly involved, even the priest adding health and buffs next to him will be considered a team effort and will not be recognized. Not being able to use items is also a huge disadvantage for players.

Not being able to use props means that you can't use the legendary drug abuse Dafa, and you can only rely on hard power to defeat it head-on. Under such harsh conditions, most players can't even defeat monsters of higher level, let alone monsters of higher level than themselves.

Only a person like Ling Yu, whose true combat power was far greater than his own level, could achieve this achievement unintentionally.
