Chapter 2: Getting Started in the Game
Returning to the room, Zhang Fan couldn't wait to put on the game helmet, twenty minutes was just a blink of an eye, and after a while, the crisp female voice had already sounded:
"Welcome to Conquest, experience the journey of blood and fire, the collision of resourcefulness and force, please name your character!"
"Turmoil!" Zhang Fan didn't think about it.
"Ding, the name is certified through guò, there are no duplicate names, no illegal words, are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"Do you want to change your physiognomy (you can make 10% fine-tuning to parts of the character)"
"No!"
"Please choose the place of birth!"
With the words, a large map appeared in front of him, and the fourteen states of the Three Kingdoms jumped on the paper, which was presented to the player more intuitively, and the player could also observe the terrain and landform through local magnification and choose the most suitable location for himself.
"Jizhou Anxi City!" It's just that this map is really redundant for Zhang Fan, who has already made plans!
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!" As soon as the words fell, Zhang Fan felt that it was dark in front of him, and when he opened his eyes again, he had already appeared in a huge city, and there were not many players around, and most of them were still choosing!
"Why didn't I choose a career? Attribute points? In the voice channel that had already entered, Qin Yao was puzzled.
"Hehe, "Conquest" is different from other online games! The way the character grows is very complicated, you can customize it according to your own preferences, the system will not limit you with rules, what kind of character you want to create is up to you! Zhang Fan smiled faintly and explained.
"Okay, okay, so what do we do now? Do tasks to upgrade to? The little girl was a little eager to try.
"Don't rush to do other tasks yet! Go to the Captain Soldier at the city gate to pick up a mission to deliver the loot, and get out of the city first! Zhang Fan hurriedly said, although there are many tasks in the city, it is not cost-effective.
"Can we get out of town like this?" His hands were empty, he was dressed in coarse linen, and he was also marked with seven or eight patches, and he called out the attribute interface to see, force, strategy, and 1 point of domination.
"Yes, I'll take the task first, and I'll tell you what to do when you get out of the city!" Saying that, Zhang Fan urged the character to run towards the city gate, and although Qin Yao didn't know why, he also ran over.
As soon as I arrived at the city gate, the plot was touched.
The captain of the soldiers defending the city took a step forward and blocked the way:
"Stupid little people! Although the Yellow Turban Army has just been defeated by us, it is still very dangerous outside the city, are you going to send it to death? ”
You look at the spear in the soldier's hand, swallow hard, and two options appear in front of you.
1: I'll go back!
2: The commander is wise and powerful, and he repelled the Yellow Turban soldiers, I'm just here to see if there's anything I can do to help!
Without hesitation, Zhang Fan chose 2.
The soldier captain laughed and looked very proud: "Isn't it? We are the elite of the official army! ”
"You are powerless, and participating in the battle is also the material for death, so let's send a team of men and horses out of the city to exterminate the remaining Yellow Turban remnants, if you are not afraid of death, you can follow our brave soldiers and help them transport the loot back, so that they can kill the enemy with peace of mind!"
"Ding!" The system prompt sounded at the right time: "F-class mission, escort loot, do you accept?" ”
Zhang Fan immediately chose "yes".
"Okay, you go to the city gate and wait first, and soon there will be a new wave of teams out of the city to suppress bandits!" The Soldier Commander gets out of the way, and the plot ends.
After waiting for a while, Qin Yao also ended the plot and joined Zhang Fan, her character name is "Fengyun Dance", and Zhang Fan is a couple name.
It didn't take long for a group of soldiers to come out, and at a cursory glance, there were as many as ten, but the formation was scattered, and there was no armor on their bodies, and what was more than Zhang Fan and the two was just a standard long sword in their hands, but Rao was like this, and the two of them drooled a lot.
If you don't have a weapon, you don't feel safe!
"Why are the officers and soldiers like this!" Qin Yao smiled.
"You can't generalize about it!" Zhang Fan explained: "Now we are in the early stage of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, all parts of the country are not stable, the real elite soldiers must be used to defend the city, most of the soldiers who go out to suppress bandits are new recruits, one is to take the opportunity to expand the results, and the other is to train soldiers!" ”
"Recruits?" Qin Yao was stunned for a moment, his eyes were smart, and he whispered, "How is the combat power?" ”
Hearing this, Zhang Fan was very relieved, "Conquest" is a game with a high degree of freedom, as long as you are willing to bear it and have the ability to bear the consequences, anything can be achieved, even if you rush into the city now and occupy the city, as long as you have that strength, it is completely possible!
"Transporting the loot" is a task that players can actually get not much benefit, although there are small groups of Yellow Turban troops wandering outside the city, but most of these Yellow Turban Army are poor and scum, some don't even have a weapon, not to mention the more important armor, war horses and the like, after the player transports the "loot" back to the city, the reward is just some prestige and a little money, and the cost performance is too low, so this task has been listed as one of the most rubbish tasks for a long time, There are very few people who can do this task!
But with care, no task will be as simple as it seems!
The true effect of this quest was discovered a year later by an experience-oriented foreign player.
"Campaign" is a game with a wide audience, with a maximum online audience of billions, so in addition to many strategic players, there have been batches of casual players who are purely experience-oriented, and during the battle of Guandu, there were even a group of sightseeing groups with millions of people on the battlefield, without a little force and force, just just want to see this classic battle!
Whenever there is a battle, players can choose to participate or watch, and if the strength does not reach a certain level, they cannot choose to participate in the battle, so such a group of people will not disrupt the battle!
These players have more time and patience to discover the bits and pieces of the game, and many of the off-the-beaten-path strategies are discovered by these people!
After many times of practice, this foreign player found that the soldiers sent by the city are always five times as many as the players who take the task, although they are recruits, but the cooperation between each other can not be compared with novice players, it is definitely not easy to kill, and even if you are lucky, all you can get is a weapon and a little money, if you accidentally let go of a soldier, he will report the matter after he runs back to the city, and the player will be wanted by the official army immediately, which is worth the loss!
I have to admire the perseverance of this player, failed and reborn many times, but he was not discouraged, and finally he found another way to play, which was very beneficial to the early development, but at that time the game time had passed a year, and the effect of this style of play was weakened a lot, but Rao is so, and there are many newcomers who rush to it!
"It's not the time yet, and it's not certain!" Zhang Fan smiled slightly and motioned for Qin Yao to follow.
After walking for more than ten minutes, a team of yellow turban soldiers suddenly appeared in front, seeing that the equipment was really poor, only one of the five or six people was armed, and most of the rest were bare-handed, and the combat effectiveness was almost negligible!
The first of the leading soldiers' eyes lit up, and with a greeting, a group of ten people quickly rushed up, and the plot began:
The yellow turban soldiers were yellow and thin, trembling, and when they saw the attacking officers and soldiers, they immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, begging for mercy.
The leading soldier smiled coldly, unmoved, and shouted:
"Brothers, cut off the heads of these yellow turban thieves and exchange them for wealth with me!"
The soldiers applauded, and rushed forward with a sneer, their long swords shining coldly, threatening to slash.
The Yellow Turban Army saw that it was always impossible to escape death, and they also rose up to resist.
At the end of the plot, the two groups of people fought together, and in a hurry, two Yellow Turban soldiers had died under the sword of the official army, and the difference in strength between the two was not ordinarily large.
"Exchanging heads for meritorious service, these officers and soldiers are really hateful!" Qin Yao shook her head and said, it's just this *****, she won't take it too seriously, it's just that the plot of the game is too expressive, which makes her feel a little emotional, which is why there are a lot of casual players in "Conquest"!
"Do you want to go up?" The little girl is a little eager to try, now the official army and the Yellow Turban Army are in a mess, if you sneak attack from behind, you can at least kill one by surprise, and if you are lucky, you can get a few weapons!
"Don't worry!" Zhang Fan stretched out his hand to block: "These yellow scarves are about to be defeated, and we are just sending them to death if we go up now!" Our current combat effectiveness is no different from these Yellow Turban Army! ”
"What then?" Although he was not convinced, Qin Yao also had to admit that this was the truth, and between the conversations, there were only two Yellow Turban Army left in the field to support him, and his heart gradually calmed down.
"See those five Yellow Turban Army?" Zhang Fan smiled slightly, and pointed left and right: "Go and lead them over!" Don't lead too much! ”
"Good!" Qin Yao's eyes lit up, and she immediately manipulated the "Wind and Cloud Dance" to move forward, and after a while, a bunch of Yellow Turban Army troops were led over by her, I have to say that these Yellow Turban Army are also masters who bully the soft and fear the hard, and they are chasing after them very quickly!
"Oops, these Yellow Turbans are running so fast!" almost caught up several times, Qin Yao was in a hurry.
"Don't panic, lead them to the official army!" Zhang Fan shouted.
Finally, the "Wind and Cloud Dance" narrowly and dangerously crossed the battle group of the official army, and the Yellow Turban Army chasing behind was stunned, triggering the plot:
The besieged Yellow Turban Army gradually lost its strength, and it was about to die under the sword, when he suddenly found a large group of Yellow Turban soldiers next to him, shouting: "Come and save me!" ”
Those Yellow Turban soldiers looked left and right, and found that they had the advantage in numbers, so they immediately rushed forward and fought in a group!
"Haha!" Seeing that the official army finally suffered casualties, Qin Yao laughed out loud and said to Zhang Fan: "It's really yours!" But why only these five teams are introduced? Aren't there two more teams over there? ”
"That's not good, if the Yellow Turban Army leads too much, the battle situation will be a little one-sided, even if the officers and soldiers are killed, we can't get these weapons and equipment, unless we can defeat the remaining Yellow Turban Army! Besides, these weapons and equipment are not our main purpose! Zhang Fan explained.
"Not the main purpose?" Qin Yao was stunned for a moment, looking at the battle situation thoughtfully, the officers and soldiers were well-trained, although the number was at a disadvantage, but they were also evenly matched, and the defeat was not obvious, now it seems that the number of these Yellow Turban Army seems to be a little subtle, even if it is a victory, it is a narrow victory!
"Do you want to?"
"That's right! The Yellow Turban Army is the most unstable, and if they find that they can't beat it, there is a high chance that they will surrender! Seeing that she seemed to have an understanding, Zhang Fan immediately affirmed.
In the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, strength is respected, personal force is only one of them, the real most important thing is the strength of the army, before the player builds his own village, he can only use money to recruit soldiers in the NPC barracks, and to get money in the early stage, only to do those extremely cumbersome tasks in the city, and the harvest is not too much!
And if you can quickly pull up a team in the early stage, the lead is not just a star and a half!
"Haha, troops, troops! By the way, how did you come up with this? The little girl looked at these Yellow Turban Army with weak combat effectiveness, and suddenly felt very cute, grasshopper legs are also meat, aren't they?
"Look for more information, you can do it!" Zhang Fan didn't want to mention too much about this, so he pretended to be a gesture and said.
"Cut!" Qin Yao disdains shì.
