Chapter 006: Sea of Phantom Trees One

Who is Liu Ming? It is also unknown to know his surname, because he was allowed to do so at noon on his birthday, so he gave his name to the sun and the moon. Good reading, coffee lover, whenever sleepy, a bottle leisurely. There is still a distant cousin Zhen Shifeng, the two meet each other and know each other's nature, so they talk very well. When he was engaged in programming and sequence, he was responsible for the creation of the company. He is upright, he has never done anything to eliminate virtue and punishment, and he is conscientious, and everyone in the world applauds him. Therefore, it is called a man of loyalty and duty.

Ahem...... It is okay to ignore the above "classical Chinese". To put it bluntly, Zhen Shifeng has a distant cousin named Liu Ming, and the two have a good relationship, and they are currently a senior programmer who founded a game company. Honest by nature, conscientious and responsible. All in all, it is in complete contrast to Zhen Shifeng, a strange and even absurd guy with his words and deeds.

If you want to say that the cousin is preceded by the word 'distant relative', the relationship will naturally fade, and Liu Ming has only had frequent contact with Zhen Shifeng after moving to City A in the past few years. However, it is not easy to get along with such weirdos, digging pits and setting up tricks to tease and tease is commonplace, but after being cheated for a long time, Liu Ming has gradually adapted to the strange temper and character of this big cousin, after all, it is difficult to adapt to his 'good old man' and 'kind-hearted' character. In Zhen Shifeng's usual words, it is: "You and I are both noble people who stand on the same thief boat in a pair of open crotch pants, why should we care about those small details that are not in the eyes of secular people?" And at this time, Liu Ming must have complained unceremoniously: "I don't care about words like open crotch pants and thief ships, the important thing is that do you think 'noble conduct' is appropriate to use here?" Whether others believe it or not, I don't believe it anyway. ”

In this way, two distant cousins with opposite personalities and temperaments and completely different values became each other's important dependencies in City A. Even though Zhen Shifeng often shows a bold and reckless appearance and goes his own way, at least he won't be right......... Well, this thing does often come up with ideas that ordinary people can't bear to look at at and put into action, in other words, this is a prankster maniac who blasphemes the creed of 'if you don't die, you won't die'.

Back to the game, the content of Liu Ming's call with Zhen Shifeng is nothing more than some relevant information about the team mode to be carried out next, as for topics such as truth sequence or vodka, Zhen Shifeng naturally did not mention it, and Liu Ming also failed to detect anything abnormal.

As mentioned earlier, Liu Mingnai is a senior programmer under the second largest giant in the game industry, in addition to writing programs for game design, he also has another very important job, that is, as a player, he enters the game developed by a hostile company to collect necessary information and clues for upward feedback, so as to understand the opponent's actions in time so that he can formulate relevant countermeasures at the first time. To put it nicely, this is called an intelligence officer, and to put it in layman's terms, it is a spy. Of course, Zhen Shifeng will not let go of this kind of excellent intelligence resource, which is why he asked Liu Ming to take 'special care' of him.

Getting back to the point, after the call, Zhen Shifeng and Liu Ming decided to arrange a team mode with easy difficulty, which can be regarded as special training for the former to adapt to the game mode and rhythm as soon as possible.

[Captain: Liu Ming; Member: That's crazy; Do you want to enter the game? 】

[You have selected the team mode (easy), the script and the number of players will be randomly generated, please ...... later]

[The four-person script has been locked, the personnel screening has been completed, the first scene is about to be loaded, and the teleportation has begun]

As soon as the words fell, Zhen Shifeng's eyes suddenly went dark, and the sky spun for a while, as if he was involved in a tornado. After a while, when he opened his eyes again, the scene around him changed completely.

It was a silent forest under the darkness of the night. The blood-colored crescent moon was faintly scattered through the forest with a bleak moonlight, and the bleak autumn wind blew through the bare branches and made a strange sound. The nameless fragrance seems to come from the depths of the woods, thick and faint, gathering and dispersing, ethereal and shadowless, as if it is as intoxicating as the fragrance of heaven.

However, the combination of such a few simple elements brings everyone a feeling of only two words - thriller.

[Game ID: It's crazy; Game Level: Temporarily locked; Game Title: None]

[HP: 500; Stamina: 1000; Natural Attribute Value: Temporarily Locked】

[Welcome to the Hall of Strange Hall Team Mode (Easy), you can choose to continue the game or return to the previous menu]

Zhen Shifeng naturally chose the 'continue game' option without hesitation, and the display frames of the other three players in the team column also lit up red.

[Neural coordination is in progress, holographic scanning projection begins, and the script is expanding, please be patient and wait for ......]

As his body gradually solidified, Zhen Shifeng suddenly felt a palpitating chill. The fragrance of the forest became more intense with the bitter autumn wind, and the crescent moon in the night sky became more and more eerie with its blood-colored glow. The thrill abruptly arises.

[Script generation is over, you have entered Team Mode (Easy) Script "Sea of Phantom Trees"]

Before officially entering the script, the system prompt of the transition CG sounded in everyone's ears at the same time, but this time the prompt sound was full of emotion, which was completely different from the previous dull and mechanical female voice.

[There was a poignant love story in this ancient land: a young and beautiful woman fell in love with her handsome and brave knight, but the king ruthlessly broke the two apart. Soon, the woman became the queen of a country, and the knight committed suicide under a cherry blossom tree. It is said that after the knight's death, his body turned into a string of golden rattles and flew into the palace, and since then he has been guarding his most beloved person, never to be separated.

[But after only a few months, the king got tired of the queen and cut off her hands and expelled her from the palace and went into exile.] The disheartened queen came to the cherry blossom forest where the knight had killed herself, and everything had disappeared when the white silk rose.

[However......]

Hearing this, the CG prompt sound of the transition suddenly stopped, and the surroundings returned to calm, Zhen Shifeng was stunned for a moment, and then scolded: "Nima, this is even more uncomfortable than squeezing back Xiang, who is halfway up." ”

"Compared to that, you're really breaking through the sky, cousin." A familiar voice sounded, Zhen Shifeng turned around to look, and saw Liu Ming, who was dressed in a black tight-fitting night suit and holding a Japanese-style retro long sword, shaking his head helplessly, while a string of quite conspicuous golden words was displayed on his head: Hesitant warrior.

"Xiao Ming, what is this golden thing on top of your head......... Before Zhen Shifeng finished asking, Liu Ming said directly: "It's just the title of the game, quickly swallow the word 'tuo' back to me." ”

"Oh, I thought my taste had grown heavy after a few days of not seeing you, but it's a pity." Zhen Shifeng shrugged his shoulders with interest.

"Huh...... Let's not talk about that, cousin, haven't you ever had an image retouching? It's not the same as in reality. ”

"What the hell is image retouching? Can my handsome and dashing face still need to be trimmed? ”

“……… I didn't say anything, and I didn't fix it. But you should always change your clothes, don't you always come with a newbie outfit when you build your character? ”

"Uh...... I feel like the pants on my body are not bad. "That's right, this guy has been wearing the same pants that he used to build the character from the beginning of the script, and the shame is simply outrageous.

"......" At this moment, Xiao Ming suddenly felt that what he said was just a pile of nonsense.

After a brief conversation, Zhen Shifeng was still forced to put on the previous novice costume, and Xiao Ming also smoothly shifted the topic to the script task.

[Main quest 1: Go to the grave]

"Since the first scene gave us this woods, it means that the grave mentioned in the mission is somewhere in the woods, right?" An unfamiliar voice came from not far away, and following the voice, I saw two players who were also dressed in white novice costumes and had no title come forward.

Zhen Shifeng squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the two teammates in front of him. The tall, delicate-looking man with the game ID 'Edward' and the other male companion standing behind him with the slightly thin child-like game ID 'Smoke Curling'.

Seeing the two of them come forward, Xiao Ming deliberately put on a very friendly appearance and greeted warmly: "Hello two, please give me a lot of advice when we meet for the first time." ”

"Haha, Brother Ming is polite, we should be the ones who should be instructed." Edward hurriedly glanced at the golden title on Xiao Ming's head, although the content could not bear to look at directly, but at least it could show that the other party was a 'veteran player' who had gone through several scripts and had a little experience. So a word immediately popped into the minds of these two people - hugging their thighs.

On the other hand, Zhen Shifeng on the side, with a mediocre appearance and no temperament, was so stupid that he was loaded into the script with only a pair of pants, obviously a novice rookie who didn't even know how to wear clothes. In Edward's eyes, this scum with a combat power of only five was instantly degraded to worthlessness, at most he was just a burden to mix experience with.

Although Edward was like this in his heart, he still had to be polite on the surface, so he smiled and said, "This true brother is Brother Ming's companion, fortunately." ”

"That's natural, we came in together." Although Xiao Ming is a little disgusted by Edward's flattery, the phenomenon of hugging thighs in the game has become commonplace. But the other party called one of them 'True Brother' and the other 'Brother Ming', isn't this humble and respectful expression too obvious?

Sure enough, Zhen Shifeng, who had been silent, suddenly snorted angrily, then stretched out two fingers and poked the two opposite, and sneered: "Xiao Ming, these two are the legendary Wukong brothers and Bajie brothers who have gone through the ninety-nine-eighty-one difficulties and finally obtained the 'image repair' scripture, right?" ”
