Chapter XXIII 

"Phoenix, please continue to reorganize the team."

Looking at a resurrected player, although some of them couldn't help but swear and their faces were full of unhappiness, they still began to honestly start to line up.

Meng Yang completely relinquished the dominance, he was quite satisfied with Liwei this time, at least in the face of the next attack, the players should have a certain ability to restrain them.

Meng Yang was well aware of the coming threat from the gnolls, but he also knew that he didn't have the ability to command, so it was better to leave these players under the command of Phoenix.

Female shooter Phoenix is the force in charge of the camp, and with her in the formation, players can have a little scruples.

And this survivor camp,Phoenix has always been in charge of the camp's fortifications.,There's also a certain ability in this regard.,Of course,It doesn't matter if you don't have the ability.,It's okay to keep player A there.,But compared to if someone can organize it.,It's definitely not the same efficiency.。

Meng Yang had to think not only about the players, but also about the people in this camp, at least in the face of the attack, to save as many old and weak women and children as possible.

If in the future, Meng Yang can find any organizational leaders among the players, they can completely let them come by themselves, but today's situation is still coordinated and commanded by the female shooter Phoenix.

Anyway, as a summoner, the player's login, the camp leader, and An An's share is good.

"It's good that I didn't run around just now!"

At this time, among the players, Liu Chuanfeng, who had just danced the most, patted his chest lightly, glad that he did not run around. He saw that the pain was adjusted, but he hadn't adjusted it yet, so he hurriedly lowered the pain.

The pain of being killed by a pig-headed man for the first time in my memory is too real, as if I really died once, and I still remember it vividly.

"We still don't know the urine nature of this game, the degree of freedom is high, but you still have to go through the story mission."

Zhuang Dafa pursed his lips on the side, although he only participated in the closed beta one more time, but compared to other players, he had never seen the world with a shocked face, and the sense of superiority on his body was almost overflowing.

There were a lot of players wandering around, but there were also a lot of people who didn't rush around. For example, Xu Zhe, Sun Shuai, Zhuang Dafa, Liu Chuanfeng and Ma Xiaoling, they have already experienced the realism of the game, so the novelty is slightly better.

And the five of them were teammates who fought together last time.,But at that time, the game was suddenly closed offline.,I haven't had time to leave a contact information.,This time I met and I had a lot to say.。

"I feel like this time it's a bit like a Legion combat mode, we're just minions acting as cannon fodder!"

Xu Zhe looked around at the few people around him, he was carefully studying the task when he heard that the mission was released, and then saw some clues from the camp leader (Meng Yang) and the leading general (female archer Phoenix).

"This is the fate of the foot man." Sun Shuai, who was silent, complained coldly.

"I just don't know what it will be like in the future." Xu Zhe habitually touched his chin, his many years of experience as the guild president and the commander of the wasteland and gold fighting group made him always like to ponder the purpose of game development and planning.

"Are you going to fight monsters again? There is no time for peace in this game. Ma Xiaoling stood in the middle of several people, as if standing out from the crowd, particularly eye-catching, and when she heard the discussion of the people in front of her, she seemed to remember the task she had just seen in hindsight.

But a few people ignored her, where can it be called a game if she doesn't fight monsters.

"What is the worldview of this game? How do I feel as if I can see Eastern faces, but also Westerners? Sun Shuai raised another question, which aroused the interest of several people.

After he entered this camp, he found that although as the protagonist of the plot, the summoner of the players, Meng Yang, was an eastern face, and there were also many yellow faces with black hair and black eyes in the camp, there were also many western faces of various hair colors and eye colors, and some of them could be seen from the name.

"It's a bit of a miscellaneous." Xu Zhe nodded, both of them were observant and careful, and in addition to what they saw on their faces, they would also speculate about other things.

"I don't know if the worldview is grand enough, it's always hidden!"

"Now it's the story mode, it's just not a single player, but the plot of the whole game world is developing, and I feel that this is the true meaning of virtual online games."

"I just don't know how many chapters there are and how many bosses appear. But you're right, according to the game's current degree of freedom, if you open the adventure mode of the world map at will, it is estimated that the development will not be able to keep up. ”

Everyone who has played sandbox games before, and generally knows the routines of game developers, and will set a storyline, or create based on novels, historical myths, etc. Of course, there is no shortage of purely high-degree-of-freedom modes.

"Alas...... I said, did you find out? ”

When Xu Zhe and Sun Shuai were speculating about the mode and background of the game, Liu Chuanfeng carried a bone knife and shook his long hair, "This time there are a lot of updated things, not to mention the clothes, and the pain adjustment, it seems that the whole test has been carried out with the development of the protagonist of the game." ”

"I feel like it's about making players engaged." Zhuang Dafa thought for a while, and said, since the last time he played "Journey to the Otherworld", he has put all the other games in it, and now all his body is immersed in it.

When I was maintaining it before, I was basically brushing the official website every day, or I was imagining the experience in the game, so it can be said that I was completely fascinated. This feeling is even more itchy than the first time he played "Endless Fun" at the same school.

"You, you, you, you, you, out of the ranks."

Just when Xu Zhe, Zhuang Dafa, Liu Chuanfeng, Sun Shuai and Ma Xiaoling were discussing in a low voice, Phoenix, who was standing in front, suddenly called their names.

"Huh? What do you want us to do? ”

"Right?"

Several people were a little puzzled for a while, but they were forced to come out of the way thanks to Phoenix's precise archery skills.

Phoenix looked at the few people who didn't look like they had any combat effectiveness at all, and the two eyebrows frowned together, but remembering what Meng Yang had explained to her before, she still spoke: "The five of you will temporarily appoint you as the captain, and each of you will bring 10 people to form a team, and listen to my command." ”

"Why?" As soon as Phoenix's words fell, the discordant voices of the players rang out again.

Everyone is playing a game, and there is no reason to have to listen to the command honestly when you come to a game. This is a common idea for some loners.

"We killed a pig-headed man and saved the main character of the camp." Sun Shuai glanced at one of the players who spoke, and said lightly.

"Probably the last time we did the task of rescuing the protagonist." Xu Zhe had already understood, and came out again to explain, "So, you have also seen that task reward, there is a favorability and prestige reward." ”

The triumphant Liu Chuanfeng also laughed, "Hehe, brother, buddy is a player from the last closed beta, and there is an NPC favorability bonus for completing the task." As he spoke, he shook the bone knife in his hand, "See, this is a trophy, you are all empty-handed." ”

"Damn, we're really empty-handed, will we bite with our teeth?"

"This game is poor enough and ruthless enough!"

The players were reminded by Liu Chuanfeng, and at this time, many people found that they had no weapons in their hands.

However, more people will focus on the favorability and prestige mentioned before, because there is no data panel, and everyone can't figure it out at once, and the prestige or favorability of the game in the past is just whether you can take tasks and buy goods.

In this game, favorability and prestige are similar to reality, and they become invisible.

"That's what happened!"

"I see."

After listening to this, many other players probably understood a little.

It seems that this game really has the ability to increase its level among all people according to the degree of contribution, or the goodwill and reputation of the NPCs.

Although there are many players who are not happy with this grouping, there is not much resistance in the end, after all, they are all old game fans and know team cooperation.

There were a total of 54 players this time, 42 males and 12 females, but after being punished by Phoenix, two of them quit the game, and three players were temporarily in the countdown to the "confinement" of death resurrection.

The remaining 49 people were divided into 5 teams, led by Xu Zhe, Sun Shuai, Zhuang Dafa, Liu Chuanfeng and Ma Xiaoling, of which Liu Chuanfeng's team was only 9 people, and the other teams were 10 people.

This arrangement may not be reasonable, and most of the fights will be reckless when the time comes, but with this, at least the favorability and prestige are used.

When all the teams were almost reorganized, Meng Yang appeared in front of the players with a few old men and women in the camp, carrying some weapons.

"Adventurers, thank you for coming, but you can't fight the cruel gnolls with your bare hands, and I have some weapons to lend you here. But you need to return it to me after the war! Our weapons are precious, and if they are damaged, you will need to compensate me later! ”

As the leader of the camp, this kind of thing is naturally for him to come forward.

After the fall of the City of Despair, there were actually a lot of swords and spears and other weapons collected in the camp, after all, this was once a city with a population of maybe hundreds of thousands, and even Meng Yang and Gustav were able to find iron swords and broken spears when they first entered the city, but many of them were rusty and broken, and no one could repair them.

Meng Yang also thought about using these weapons as task rewards at first, but then he thought about the uneven materials, and he didn't bother to do that, but he really wanted to give away a tabula rasa weapon for nothing, and he felt that he was panicking.

Now that the entire financial system of the City of Despair has long since collapsed, it is not a matter of time to think about it, and it is more appropriate to classify it as borrowing now.

"I finally have a weapon this time!"

Looking at the weapons that Meng Yang had people bring up, the players present were a little excited.

Just now, many people noticed that everyone was empty-handed, and there was no backpack or anything like that in this real simulation to equip novice weapons, and now they saw Meng Yang take out a weapon as a camp mission NPC, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Xu Zhe, Zhuang Dafa and Sun Shuai, who experienced the last battle of the pig-headed people, the first time they met the monster, everyone went up with their bare hands, and even what they found later was some primitive means such as bones, tree trunks, and stones.

This time, I finally saw the real cold weapon.

The captains of the five squads were all given iron swords, which were once common standard weapons in the City of Despair, and Meng Yang also used them, about one or two catties, and the others were given long spears with iron spear heads, which were also standard weapons, but the length of the gun handle was one for each other, and even in the end, there were four or five people who used wooden sticks to offset the number.

There is no way to do this, and the weapons that the entire camp has gathered are basically here. Meng Yang had heard Phoenix and Sheila, who was a healer and logistician, mentioned that the City of Despair had some sophisticated or enchanted weapons with magic crystals, but basically after the destruction of the City of Despair, many of them were either in the hands of some humanoids or were collected by people from other camps.

After the players received the weapons one by one, the confused atmosphere after being suddenly attacked and killed by Phoenix gradually became active again.

Many people are holding a broken spear, or a rusty iron sword, are inexplicably excited, in reality these are controlled knives, although we have seen a lot of games in the past, but how can there be this kind of real guy in the hand of the feeling.

"This sword is for you!"

Liu Chuanfeng had the only trophy knife from the last mission on his shoulder, and casually gave the iron sword assigned to him to a member of the team next to him.

After getting the iron sword, he felt it for the first time, and found that this thing was not only rusty, but also had a lot of mutilated blades, and it was redundant as a tabula rasa weapon, not as sharp as his bone knife.

"That'...... Well, thank you, Captain! ”

Li Yuncheng nodded excitedly, he was assigned to Liu Chuanfeng's team, and he happened to belong to one of the few people who didn't catch up with the spear and only received a wooden stick.

took the iron sword, and without hesitation, threw away the wooden stick just now.

This is a real thing!

Liu Chuanfeng shook his long hair and smiled, "Don't worry, brother, follow me, don't be cowardly, just do it!" ”

Meng Yang was not surprised to see this scene from a distance, in fact, when Liu Chuanfeng appeared, he also found that he was holding the bone knife of the pig-headed man last time, and probably speculated that if the weapon was held by the player, the next summon should not disappear, and he was not completely sure now, but when these players held the weapon and faced the jackal, he would probably know.

"Did you feel anything was wrong?"

Next to him, Xu Zhe took an iron sword that was in good condition and approached the captain of the other team, Sun Shuai, and asked in a low voice.

Among many players, they can be regarded as more talkative, that is, they don't just look at the surface when they see things.

"A little." Sun Shuai nodded, but then said, "But it may be that the real simulation has to be like this, and there must be a reason for giving weapons, otherwise there will be everything directly, and it doesn't seem to be real." ”

"Yes."

Xu Zhe nodded slightly, he was sure that this was a game, but the rust on an iron sword was deducted just now, and there was really a little bit of powder falling off, this absolute sense of reality still makes people dreamlike, and it feels like it's not a game.

When all the players have received their weapons, it is getting dark.

While many players entering the game were still in their hands and feeling the "real guy" experience, suddenly torches flashed back and forth above the wall.

"Enemy attack!"

An old man standing guard above the fence suddenly shouted loudly.

The old and weak women and children in the entire camp instantly panicked, and the players all perked up and screamed.
