Chapter 191: Game and Reality

Hu Yu was in a hurry to become a headless fly, and Zhou Heng in the other world was also dumbfounded.

The real life in the other world is naturally not as bizarre as in the game. Although all kinds of dangerous situations are objective, some small probability events will definitely not happen only by staring at the protagonist alone.

In other words, there is no difference in the probability of most people encountering danger if there is no special reason.

This is also the reason why Zhou Heng deliberately caused trouble for Hu Yu. When you go out, you can encounter strange birds that attack humans, and you can just bump into kidnappers who have just completed kidnapping, without Zhou Heng's guidance, these things are almost impossible to happen - that kind of strange birds are not strong, and the survival rate of attacking humans is almost zero; Even if there were no guards, a few of the more skilled neighbors would be able to defeat it; Therefore, the probability of the average person walking on the street and encountering this bird is about the same as winning the lottery. As for the kidnapping, the probability is even smaller - going out and encountering the underworld who has just completed the kidnapping is as rare as winning the lottery, and the probability of breaking two experienced kidnappers without paying special attention is even smaller.

If there were no two things as an opportunity, Hu Yu would probably still be helping Arya with chores, even if he touched the pendant by chance, it would never be possible to reach the current Cheng dΓΉ. But this time he encountered the cursed dragon, but it was not Zhou Heng who did it.

Although according to the game setting, it should be time for the cursed dragon to reappear, but Hu Yu directly encountered the cursed dragon at this time, which Zhou Heng did not expect anyway. The Cursed Dragon in the game is selected according to the player's game state; Some players whose behavior is suspected to be non-human. There is a chance that there will be some cursed events. Besides. There are no other conditions for this event.

And Hu Yu, who was watching the scenery on the airship at the moment. Apparently not in this state. Such a Hu Yu suddenly encountered the cursed dragon, which was like an accidental event like winning the jackpot. The giant dragon that hadn't appeared for a hundred years appeared on Hu Yu's head as soon as it appeared on the stage, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhou Heng wouldn't have believed it if he was killed.

"What's going on? Is it a cursed dragon? ”

"It should be."

"The people on board ......"

"Cursed." The Lord God said, turning on another shot, "I captured the image of the Cursed Dragon skimming over that area. ”

As the Lord God spoke, the scene just now appeared on Zhou Heng's computer. Because away from that pendant. The picture became a little blurry, and from a distance, it could be seen that the magic airship driving in the sea of clouds was gradually shrouded in shadows, and the picture flashed, and a black giant broke into the entire shot.

The main god paused the screen, and at the same time selected several other representative screenshots, which were arranged on the screen in turn. This is a huge monster with a black mist, and Zhou Heng, as one of the designers, of course recognizes it as the Cursed Dragon, but because of the black mist, he can only recognize its appearance from the general outline.

The Lord God duly explained:

"According to the spectral analysis. This monster is incorporeal. ”

"Transparent?!"

Zhou Heng was stunned for a moment, there is no doubt that the cursed dragon is in existence. But this 'cursed dragon' was different-Zhou Heng looked at it. In the black mist surging on the dragon's body, the blue sky and white clouds on the black fog were faintly visible.

"Isn't the cursed dragon disembodied?" Zhou Heng asked, and then asked, "Or is this not a cursed dragon?" ”

"It's the Cursed Dragon, but it's not supposed to be the Cursed Dragon. Perhaps, this shadow is just a kind of 'magic' of the cursed dragon, or a projection of it. ”

"Projection? But in this case, isn't it different from the game setting......" Zhou Heng said, but quickly reacted, "Oh, I understand." ”

The monster of the cursed dragon is undoubtedly existing. This is a world derived from fantasy, and the source of fantasy is the game itself. In the game's setting, this 'Curse of Shadows' is just a fortuitous event, and after a large shadow passes, the player will receive the status of 'Curse of Shadows'. In the incident, the player himself sees only the shadow of the cursed dragon, and the introduction only says that the player is swept by the shadow of the cursed dragon, and does not mention that it is the cursed dragon itself that flies over.

And as if to confirm Zhou Heng's guess, Zhou Heng was still recalling the situation of this event in the game, and the main god reminded again: "The cursed dragon has dissipated." ”

"Huh?"

The Lord God didn't say anything more, and played another video. I saw that the cursed dragon turned into a black mist and dissipated after a short distance of the spaceship. The sky was clear, and the cursed dragon just now, as if it had never existed, disappeared directly, and even those black fogs gradually became transparent and then disappeared.

"In other words, it's just a projection to curse a specific target, right?"

"That's right."

That is to say...... The dragon didn't happen to pass by, but because it was coming for the ship in the first place. Zhou Heng said, and wondered, "So why do you say that?" Why did the cursed dragon look for Hu Yu? ”

"Lack of information, can't be analyzed. But that curse is undoubtedly a curse. The Lord God said, turning his perspective back to the ship, "The people on the ship have found that they have a strange magic fluctuation on their bodies, which should be the effect of this curse. ”

"Are there any other anomalous personnel on board? Or rather...... Believers of this dragon on board? ”

"I don't know." The Lord God replied, "But the believers of the Cursed Dragon should not. According to the texts, the followers of the Cursed Dragon all carry a distinct magic mark, which can be detected with some magic items; And when these people got on the boat, they were inspected for this kind of magic props. ”

After talking for a long time, the question of why this kind of monster would trouble Hu Yu still hasn't been answered. Zhou Heng became more and more puzzled, of course he knew that the first related curse that Hu Yu encountered in the game was the Shadow Curse, but this world was not the same as the game. Thinking of this, Zhou Heng had an idea-

"In the game. This kind of monster should only be aimed at the player, right? Zhou Heng thought for a moment. Said. "Could it be that there is a specific setting in the rules of the Atlas for having a 'game system'?"

Not long ago, the main god told Zhou Heng about the correlation between the rules of the other world and the rules of the world in which Zhou Heng lived. In Zhou Heng's world, it can only be used to strengthen the body, but if it is carried out in the other world, it can increase Hu Yu's magic level - the same reason, if it is applied to this matter, could it be that it is because there is a rule in the other world that the cursed dragon will only attack those who have a system?

"But it shouldn't be the same." The main god immediately understood what Zhou Heng meant, "The system in the game and ours should be completely different in nature. ”

On weekdays, Zhou Heng asked the main god to answer, but today it was his turn to explain to the main god. Zhou Heng was a little unaccustomed to it for a while-"What if you just look at the appearance?" ”

"And it's hard to imagine that this kind of rule would have anything to do with human feelings." The Lord God said directly, "So I don't think it's very likely. ”

"Okay, then I'll ask Little Yellow Hair tomorrow."

In the end, I didn't figure out what was going on, and such an accident cast a haze on Zhou Heng's heart. I don't know why this happened, and I don't know what the consequences would have been - if there were no accidents, the followers of the Cursed Dragon would come to chase them after forty-eight hours, and I don't know what the cursed effect of money, items, and items would turn into. Zhou Heng tried it, but Hu Yu's 'system' was not affected, and the nanomachine qì people who modified Hu Yu's body did not encounter any problems. And this incident is so confusing.

Maybe it was really just an accident, right?

The virtual concert continues. Tens of millions of people around the world are sitting in virtual spaces at the same time, sitting with familiar and unfamiliar people. watching a concert in progress; Luo Tiansheng personally took the stage, had some introduction activities about the game functions with the host, and then invited her own family, a famous virtual singer Luo Tianyi, to perform on stage, and the atmosphere of the concert reached a climax. And Zhou Heng and Hu Yu were busy with their own faces.

Zhou Heng looked through a lot of game settings about the cursed dragon and didn't find any clues, and was annoyed that he should have clearly added a few settings to avoid the current situation; Hu Yu laboriously explained the message of the cursed dragon to the people on the ship, but there was no progress either. In the midst of this hustle and bustle, the huge shadow of the Floating City has already appeared in the clouds.

After three days of driving, the floating city was already very close; After encountering the Cursed Dragon, the airship finally made its way to the airspace of the Floating City.

After calming down, Hu Yu reported the situation of this particular curse to his companions, and then went to the captain together, explaining how only a reclusive church sage would break this curse. Regarding that kind of medicine, Hu Yu probably remembered the formula, but the specific method of making zuΓ² was only known to the reclusive sage. At this critical moment, Hu Yu did not pretend to be smart, but directly said the information he knew, and immediately asked to turn back. Although Carl Jr. was by his side, the captain was still skeptical of his words. It wasn't until they landed in the floating city and reported the matter to the church headquarters that the rest of the ship got the answer.

The church immediately confirmed that the curse came from the cursed dragon that had disappeared for hundreds of years, and confirmed Hu Yu's words - they really didn't know how to break the curse. And the clue they gave was very simple, go to the sage who lived in seclusion near the town of Pointe-Noire and ask for it.

After confirming this matter, everyone immediately believed Hu Yu's words. In the game, no matter which main city you are in, the church will ask the player who triggered the curse event to go to the hermit in seclusion, and it seems that there is no difference in this world. However, the traffic in this world is obviously worse than in the game, and the player can complete this task in forty-eight hours in the game, but in the other world, this time is a bit insufficient.

Forty-eight hours was not enough time to even return to the sage, let alone make an antidote. (To be continued......)
