Chapter 3: The Little Blue Pill
Although the beautiful woman's face in front of him made people want to linger involuntarily, but after listening to this woman's words, Chu Yun was indeed a little worried that he had been deceived by the fat man in charge of recruitment, so he was ready to quit the game immediately to ask for the 1,000 yuan salary in the agreement, after all, the original agreement was only a two-hour test, and now he has passed the calculation of time.
"Thank you for saving me just now, but I don't know how to repay you in this game......" Chu Yun wanted to thank the woman for her help just now, but he really couldn't think of any place where he could help the other party with only a wooden stick in his hand.
"Repay? Then let's wait until you become stronger in the future, of course...... You have to survive first, but since you met me, it may be a kind of fate, and I can give you a little more help. ”
As she spoke, the woman casually tossed him a rather delicate long-necked metal vial.
"This is what I just got in the ruins, the things in this bottle can allow you to have a natural skill in this world, although most of them are junk support skills, but it can also increase your ability to save your life a little, if you can survive in this game, maybe you can save your sister in the future."
"This bottle is really exquisite...... What's in it and how do I use it? Chu Yun took the metal vial and found that the bottle not only had a strange texture, but also had intricate cloud patterns and ancient characters smaller than a grain of rice engraved on it.
When he opened the bottle, he found that it was a small blue ball, which looked like a candy and a pill.
"Just eat it, but you'd better not tell anyone about it." The woman said very casually, as if she really just threw out a candy.
"Oh...... Thank you for that......" Chu Yun raised his head to thank him, but found that there was no trace of the woman in front of him.
"Is this teleporting away in an instant?" Chu Yun looked around in surprise, the breeze was blowing, and there was only the abandoned village and the corpse of the wild wolf in one place, and there was no one around.
"Nima, I'm really playing the same game with her?" Thinking of his previous difficult trek in the jungle for more than an hour, Chu Yun understood that he was only here to test the situation that ordinary players would encounter, and this woman was probably the kind of high-end RMB player, and people could enjoy the fun of this game.
However, before the woman left, she said that the blue pill could provide him with a natural skill, and also said that as long as he survived, he might be able to save his sister in the future, which also made him inexplicably rise a hope in his heart.
The blue pill was not big, and he swallowed it in one gulp in his hunger.
However, what left him speechless was that after swallowing the blue pill, he didn't feel any change in himself, let alone any improvement in his skills.
"I don't know how to check my attributes...... Looks like we'll have to find the fat guy for more information about the game. Chu Yun secretly thought in his heart, that woman shouldn't lie to herself, but as a novice, she was too unfamiliar with this game.
Although he claims to be a master of games and has a strong comprehension of various games, he still has no clue in this real and terrible game at the moment...... General gaming tips and strategies seem useless for this overly realistic virtual game.
"Maybe it's more suitable for this game to learn those real wilderness survival skills......" Recalling his previous combat experience, Chu Yun couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Of course, if you can kill a group of demon wolves in seconds with a wave of your hand like the woman before, then you must be able to experience and enjoy this game as if it were real.
Due to the fact that the previous battle had consumed too much physical strength, coupled with the fear of encountering a bad wolf again, Chu Yun did not dare to run around anymore, and found a relatively safe house in the ruins of that village, and then focused on quitting the game.
But the woman said it would only take five or six minutes to quit, but it took him about ten minutes to get out.
There was no boundless darkness all around...... It seems that the whole world no longer exists.
When Chu Yun opened his eyes again, there was already a soft light in front of him, and in front of him was a row of electronic instruments, as well as ...... The fat man's fat face was like a basin.
"The current technology is really powerful, and it is difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion...... Chu Yun sighed secretly and took off the holographic helmet on his head, but what he was thinking about was still the extremely realistic game scene just now and the unforgettable face of the mysterious woman.
"Welcome back, lad." The familiar voice completely pulled him back to reality, it was the fat examiner's hateful voice.
"I should have been in that game for two hours, according to the agreed thousand yuan......" Chu Yun immediately remembered the original agreement, and looked at the fat man quite nervously, knowing that he risked skipping class to come to be this temporary tester, mainly for this expensive reward.
"No problem, you're doing a great job, it's what you deserve, you're welcome to come back next time." The fat man smiled and handed over a thick envelope, which was his reward this time.
"Can you come next time?" Chu Yun couldn't help but be happy when he heard this, even if this game had a lot of weirdness, but if he could earn a thousand yuan every time, then there would be hope for his sister's surgery fee.
"Of course, as long as you can guarantee that you don't get killed in that game, then you can come and participate in the test every week, of course...... If you want to, you can also sign a contract with us and become our permanent employee, then your salary can be increased even more. The fat man smiled kindly.
"Regular employees? But I'm still a student......" Chu Yun couldn't help but hesitate a little when he heard this, he instinctively resisted this kind of pie-in-the-sky good thing.
After all, there are so many liars in this society that there are almost no fools, and he naturally does not want to be fools.
What's more, his mother wants him to study hard, and she will definitely not agree to let him drop out of high school to play games, even if the job pays well.
"That's okay, you don't have to work a fixed time, as long as you can spare some time every day." The fat man still smiled kindly.
"There is no need for a fixed time...... How was that treated? Chu Yun looked at this fat man with anticipation, if this was the case, he could use his spare time to come over and participate in the game test.
The fat man smiled and stretched out a finger: "At least 10,000 per month, the reward is calculated separately, it is definitely better than those jobs outside, of course...... The premise is that you can't die in the game. ”
"The treatment is so good? But what happens if you die in that game? Chu Yun asked with some curiosity, the fat man had been emphasizing that he couldn't die in that game, which made him think of some death games in novels or anime.
It is said that in that kind of death game, if you die in the game, you will die quickly in reality!
"It doesn't have a big impact, it's just that because this game is more realistic, it will cause some mental stimulation and fluctuations after dying in the game, which will make you unable to enter that game for a long time, and naturally you can't continue to test." The fat man said with a smile.
"Oh......" Chu Yun nodded slightly, and at the same time, he couldn't help but secretly congratulate himself that he hadn't been bitten to death by that evil wolf in that game before, otherwise this fat man would probably have driven him out of the door, and it would be impossible to talk to him about this again.
However, he was very confused by the premise that he could not enter the game for a long time after death, and it was clear that the general game designer would like to keep the player in the game 24 hours a day, but the premise of this game is clearly driving the player out.
"Maybe in the future, there will be something to be set up in a game where you can be resurrected immediately as long as you pay......" Chu Yun speculated maliciously.
He originally wanted to find his classmates to discuss it together, but when he asked the fat man, he learned that Liu Xuewen, the classmate who brought him to take the test, had already left first.
"That classmate of yours quit the game an hour ago, and he seemed to be in a hurry to get back to school, so he just left." The fat man said with a smile still on his face.
"That guy went first? Oops, class is coming soon! I'm sorry, but I'll have to go back to school right away, so please let me think about work. ”
