Chapter 262
"This must be a badge!" Alexander spoke: "I didn't expect there to be 12." That's good, we need to get this, and number 233! As he spoke, he looked at the ball beast with some anxiety.
"Don't worry, we need to check the cards in our hands." Miller motioned to Andrew not to worry, after all, now they don't know anything, Andrew and Sasha are gone again, and they must have a deep understanding of how this game is played. After all, the storm that had just passed was still a source of lingering for Miller. Now that he no longer has the badge in his hand, the plankton has no way to evolve, and the rolling ball beast on the other side is even more of a drag. Therefore, all the power that can be mastered must be in your own hands.
"Do you have these cards in every magic book?" Comparing Alexander's magic books, Miller came to a conclusion. This card is not numbered, but appears as 000, one each for defense and flight. There is also a map card, an attack card, and a speed card.
The defense card is very simple, it is used to defend against the good and bad weather outside, but it can only last for thirty minutes at a time. But the good news is that defense cards have a large range and can be reused before time runs out. The flight card is a means of transportation, and a blanket appears to carry a manned flight for 30 minutes, and the effect is roughly the same as that of a defense card. Attack card, which is after use, can temporarily gain control of the mind qi in the card and attack, and again, the time is controlled for thirty minutes of the ordinary attack of an ordinary level 3 powerhouse. There is no time limit for the card, and its main function is to speed up walking.
And the map card ......
Miller pinched the card in his hand, then spoke heartily.
"Use a map card."
As soon as the words fell, in front of him, a sand table gradually appeared, and the shrinking world of the island of greed in a space the size of a football began to take shape, and at the same time, next to it was a huge virtual and boundless continent around the island of greed. More and more space nodes in one large and one small space have begun to connect. A whole model was formed.
"What are these two spaces, one big and one small?" Miller was a little curious, but didn't look too much. He then retrieved his map card. Then the attack card was used. This is their only means of attacking, so even if it is a waste of time, it will not be spared.
"It has been detected that the player is not a telekinesis person, and there may be pain in the infusion of telekinesis, so please bless the player.
The pain was intense, and Miller twitched, and all he could do was gasp for air. However, the pain in the nerves can be regulated by deep breathing, and the pain in the soul cannot be relieved by deep breathing.
Fortunately, it was only a dozen seconds at this time, and it quickly disappeared.
At the same time, Miller immediately found that there seemed to be a little more in him, and this feeling was amazing, and he understood that this was an ability that everyone in the world was chasing, the ability to read!
Pick up a stone from the ground, infuse it with mental energy, and throw it outside!
The stone flew out like a bullet, and I had no idea where it was going.
"This power is too strong!" Miller sighed, and then immediately disarmed the attack card. At the same time, I admire this even more. After all, the island of greed is equivalent to allowing ordinary people who come here to have many more abilities out of thin air, no wonder it is sought after by so many people, that soul, soft grinding and hard bubbles, want to come here to play.
Moreover, many of the cards here have the power to turn decay into magic, even if you can't get all the cards here, but as long as you get one or two, it's quite a good deal, of course, the only bad thing is that it is not forbidden for players to kill each other, and at the same time, you also need to charge high tickets.
Through the introduction of the game, Miller learns that the gamer who dies on the Island of Greed will have all the energy of his body absorbed by the ring, which has been used as the energy source of the game. Of course, the bulk of the game's energy doesn't depend on this. After all, according to Soul's notes, there are only a handful of people who can come here to play the game, and if the gamer's death is relied on to obtain running energy, the game would have closed a hundred years earlier.
"Let's go." It was only after Alexander had experienced some of the pain that Miller had just experienced, and was also familiar with the power, that he spoke: "No. 233 'Reader's Monthly Pass' is available in many places, and from our point of view, the nearest city is a place called Ladonia, let's hurry up." Only after curing the Bowling Ball Beast can we officially start playing this Greedy Island game.
"Okay! Let's go! Hearing Miller's words, Alexander, who had been impatient for a long time, immediately spoke. After saying that, he couldn't wait to use the speed card and walked in the direction of the city.
The island of greed is huge. If it were an ordinary person, it would have taken ten days to walk here, during which there was no water source, and it was easy to get lost, and there were wild beasts in the steppe from time to time, and it was almost certain that they would die. However, this was not a problem for Alexander and Miller, who had a speed card, and after choosing their direction, it only took them two hours to reach the city.
The name of the city is Ladonia, and it is a small bounty city with countless bounties hanging in it, ranging from helping villagers wash dishes and killing ferocious beasts to wanting cunning thieves.
It's a pity that there aren't many people here, or rather, the rest of the people are NPCs except for Miller and Alexander. But think about it this way. According to Soul, although there are many people in the entire dimension who are interested in the Island of Greed, very few can get tickets. Coupled with the size of the island, although Ladonia is a bit of a famous city in the game, there are still not so many players who stop by. Most players will go to the biggest cities in order to get the highest value prizes.
It wasn't until you entered the interior of the city that there were more people here, and of course, when it came to dead people, there were actually all kinds of NPCs. But in Alexander's eyes, living here is no different from living creatures.
The two men entered a bar that looked like there was a bounty, and then ordered two drinks in disguise. Of course, there is no way to drink this drink.
And just played with alcohol and water, an NPC who seemed to be a real person did it in front of them.
The other party is dressed quite playfully, like the western cowboy of the ancient earth, with a small revolver hanging from his thigh and a cowboy hat on his head.
"Guest, do you need information? I've got a lot of information about the game here, which will save you a lot of time, and I can tell you all about it with just a little bit of nuns. The handsome cowboy simply sat down next to Miller.
"I didn't expect this game to be able to make such a real NPC, if I didn't know it was fake, I thought it was a real person. It's simply amazing! Alexander was a little surprised for a moment, and he looked at the cowboy sitting next to Miller in amazement, no matter how he looked at it, he was a real human.
Subconsciously touched the cowboy's head, and then touched his neck, the gentle touch, it seemed that he could still feel the flow of blood, making him marvel at the reality of the game again. I haven't even heard of such technology, and the outside of AR and VR for the public is only in the infancy, and the island of greed is simply fantastic for Alexander.
"Alexander, if you're doing it, I think this gentleman will treat you like a pervert and give you a peanut." Miller had to remind Alexander.
"Ahem, I'm sorry." Alexander was a little embarrassed.
And here, Miller also said very naturally: "Okay, tell me everything you know about card 233." "The first thing they did when they entered the tavern was to check the bounty, but unfortunately, there was no item on it about card 233, 'Reader's Commuter Pass'. At the same time, although the other party is an NPC, their falsehood has already been explained when the game is introduced. But in Miller's eyes, there was no harm in treating them as normal people.
"Benefit one kilogram of gold, trade at the real-time exchange rate." Miller's words diverted the cowboy's attention to money, and he immediately took out a credit card machine and looked at Miller with a serious face.
A kilogram of gold is a lot, but it's still a minor problem for Miller. I was glad that I had a bank card in my pocket, and at the same time complained that Miller still needed money here, and after paying the money happily, the cowboy finally began to talk about the information.
Through this cowboy, Miller and they know a lot of general information, such as the fact that the items in the game can be embodied in reality. But after it is materialized, it can't be turned into a card. At the same time, all the numbered cards in the game have no way to directly damage the players in the game. For example, number 666, even if the player detonates it in the game. Although it will affect the terrain, it will not hurt the player at all. However, there are no cards in the game that can directly attack others, but some cards can still directly attack the player through special usage.
At the same time, the number 300 cards in the back and back of the game are very easy to obtain. One of the most common ways to do this is to redeem it with in-game currency. Most of the in-game currency in the game can be obtained from bounty missions.
The lowest bounties include killing wild dogs, or tidying up the lawn, which is simply reserved for ordinary people, after all, the game here is open to people of all dimensions. It's not that people in latitude have super strength. Like Alexander, after buying the ticket, there are many white geese with only five combat power. So after they have prepared enough food here, they will look for such low-paying and low-difficulty tasks to accumulate in-game currency, and then exchange it for what they want. After all, it seems that the dimension of space equipment is overflowing, and such a situation is not difficult for them.
Of course, there are also people who snatch it directly without regard for others. This is allowed on the island of greed. There are those who pride themselves on their strength and do all kinds of evil. And admittedly, this is a very simple and straightforward approach. But while Greedy Island is a game with no rules, if you do, you'll still end up with a huge bounty, whether you're alive or dead.
So this also causes, the reason why most gamers die is not because of the weather or monsters in the game, but because other gamers, in order to be able to take things out of the game and get a lot of profits, there are always people who do not compromise their means.
"If you want 233, there's a straightforward way here." As he spoke, the cowboy pulled out a large stack of bounty lists.
"All the bounties here, as long as they solve any of them, they are worth at least one 233." The variety of bounties is simply dense and dizzying. But after Miller picked it up and quickly flipped it all, not to mention whether he and Alexander could defeat these gamers, these bounties all had one thing in common, that is, insufficient intelligence.
On these bounties, all of them only give general information, some only have the names of the other party, and I don't know anything else, so I look for them myself.
"None of these will work." Miller shook his head: "We need a quicker and more direct mission. This kind of bounty task seems straightforward and simple. But it is very cumbersome to operate. We need the kind of tasks that have clear requirements. ”
"That's right." Hearing Miller's words, the cowboy tilted his head and thought about it. Then again, from his pocket, he took out a thin piece of paper. "Is this a new mission?" When Miller saw the paper, he subconsciously wanted to take it. But it was blocked by a credit card machine.
"Ten kilograms of gold, currency is converted at the real-time exchange rate, thank you!"
“…… This, this is nothing short of a robbery! Hearing the asking price of the cowboy, Alexander couldn't help but complain, ten kilograms of environment, that is 10,000 grams. According to the current price of about 30 US dollars per gram of gold, this news from the cowboy is almost 300,000 US dollars. This is already two years of pre-tax wages for the middle class of Alexander. If it is counted after taxes, he will not earn $300,000 without eating or drinking for three years.
"......" cowboy didn't speak, but his expression was still the same attitude: love to buy or not.
"Swipe your card." Miller didn't say much. It's different from Alexander, a little man who only knows firewood, rice, oil and salt. Alexander was relaxed about $300,000. Anyway, the mission here can be counted as a military mission. Then it means, give reimbursement!
