What is a Genius Gamer?
I don't think the definition of 'genius' needs to be explained in detail.
Talented? A genius?
These words are somewhat redundant.
If you want me to say, one word is enough.
Strong.
It's strong, unreasonable, and unsolvable.
This is also known as the Chosen One.
And Xia is powerless in terms of games, he is such a chosen one.
β¦β¦
ID: Spring sleepiness, autumn lack of summer weakness
Level: 1
Occupation: None
This is what Xia gained after exploring this game for half a day.
Although the level has not increased, he knows a lot about the settings in this game, as well as the specific rules of this game.
The village of Araren Rock, where he was born, is a remote village built in the middle of the desert, and the population of the village is 5 people, including him and the village chief, and one is a foot trader.
And the terrain of this desert area is somehow similar to the topography of the Loess Plateau, so the road near here is also quite difficult to walk.
Xia Wuli still complained when he was born in this place, why did an closed beta player have to be born in a place where this kind of bird doesn't? Isn't it convenient to do it?
However, after half a day of exploring, he quickly adapted to the place and received a career assignment.
That's right, one of those five is a mentor who can teach a profession.
This is the profession of a mentor...... It's kind of weird.
He's a long-eyebrow veteran.
The sudden appearance of a Taoist priest in this barren and wild place is not normal no matter how you think about it.
What's more, this game doesn't seem to be a game with a Chinese style.
But anyway, it was an internal test, and Xia Wuli didn't have too many scruples, so he got the task and started to do it.
After all, it's better to have a career than nothing.
Fortunately, the task is relatively simple, that is, a collection task, and you don't even need to fight monsters.
Although it doesn't seem like Xia Weak's style to say that he doesn't kill something, he doesn't hate this kind of easy task.
After all, 'laziness' is his life creed.
So, on the first day of the first test of the game, this was how it began.
β¦β¦
For a game world with consciousness, the AIs are the natives of this world.
And the player, is nothing more than an intruder.
In fact, no matter what the game is, the history of NPCs will always be longer than that of the players.
This game is no exception.
As early as the emergence of its main structure of the world, these beings came to this world and began their 'own' lives according to their settings.
In the days when there were no players, they lived according to their own script.
Most of the NPCs are quiet and nice on a daily basis.
In their eyes, a second is a second, and a day is a day; The flowers will bloom and the birds will chirp in the early morning. And that's what they know about the world.
But what they don't know is that their so-called time flow rate is controlled on a slider.
The slider moves slightly to the left, and a second is as long as a year.
The slider moves slightly to the right, and ten years is like a flick of the fingers.
And the flowering period of flowers and the cry of birds only need to modify a little parameter to completely reverse and change beyond recognition.
These things are invisible to their eyes.
It's the world beyond their cone of light.
β¦β¦
Rin Slater was very happy today.
Not only because he was praised by his mentor for his self-created spells, but also because tonight was the night he and his lover met.
He is a gifted apprentice mage of the Planet Weaver Magic Society.
And his lover is a nun from the Halo Church of the Star Weaver Country.
But the people of the Star Weaver Kingdom understand that the Church regards the Magical Society as a heretic, and wants to get rid of this sorcery organization at all times.
Therefore, the intimacy of these two men must not be allowed by the church.
So this is why these two people can only choose to meet late at night and choose a date.
It may sound like a clichΓ© love story, but for them, it's a real life.
The branches on the moon, the stars at night.
Rin Slater and Jinyu kissed affectionately under this pure moonlight, and at this moment, they were twenty years old.
β¦β¦
"It's finally done." Xia panted and returned to the Dao Leader.
He didn't expect that this seemingly easy collection task would become so cumbersome due to the obstruction of the terrain.
"Oops...... Dao Chief, ha, ha, I'll tell you. Xia couldn't help but sit directly in front of the Taoist chief, panting and said, "I've worked hard to find all these materials for you, you have to give me a better set of novice professional clothes." β
The Taoist only looked at him and did not speak.
Apparently a lack of intelligence and the ability to communicate outside of tasks.
Xia was powerless and instantly had the feeling of playing the piano to the cow.
"Hey, forget it, you won't pay attention to me anyway, I'll hand in the task first." As he spoke, Xia couldn't get up, took out the task items in his backpack, and shook them in front of the Dao Chief's eyes.
Seeing the item, Dao Chang's originally godless eyes instantly glowed, "You're back, you've worked hard." β
[Do you want to give the quest items to the 'Xuanxu Dao Master'?] γ
A dialog box popped up in front of Xia's weak eyes.
Xia couldn't afford to press [Yes] easily.
Just as his fingers fell, the whole world suddenly shook violently, like an indiscriminate earthquake.
This shock directly sat Xia Fuxing's ass down, and the task items also fell all over the ground.
"What's the matter, kind of you're going to do it again?" Xia couldn't help but feel pain in his buttocks, and looked at the task items scattered all over the ground, and shouted at the sky with great dissatisfaction.
As if in response to him, the entire sky suddenly turned scarlet, and blood began to rain continuously.
"Damn, this is too strange!" Xia couldn't help but expect such a thing to happen, and couldn't help but exclaim for a while.
Immediately, his power supply was cut off.
β¦β¦
Li Yeshi opened his eyes and saw the pure white walls around him and the staff who were watching him with concern.
"There was a rare bug just now, so we were forced to cut off the power, are you okay?" The staff member asked with concern and sincerity.
When this happened, Li Yeshi could be quite understood.
After all, it's in closed beta, so it's not surprising that anything happens.
"I'm fine." He also responded politely to the staff.
The staff nodded, "That's good." β
"We'll roll back the server for a while, and you can get back to playing." He bowed, "Now please stay on standby in the game pod." β
"Okay, okay." Li Yeshi responded.
The staff nodded and exited the room again.
The hatch of the game pod closed again in front of Li Yeshi.
β¦β¦
Xia couldn't open his eyes, the world in front of him had returned to calm, and the previous blood rain had long since disappeared.
"Looks like it's normal." He opened his backpack and prepared to hand over the task items to the Dao Master in front of him.
Nothing.
"Huh?" He flipped his backpack upside down, still not finding anything.
The things that had been painstakingly collected before just evaporated out of thin air.
At this time, he suddenly remembered what the staff had said to him before.
Server rollback.
In other words, the state of the entire game is now reverted back to the point in time before he collected the item.
", you're dying!"
Xia was powerless to hold his head in his hands and roared to the sky.
