Chapter 002: The Famous Sword of the Ghost Slayer
Some people have money, and investing money in "Gods and Demons" is a kind of pay, some people have time, and investing time is also a kind of pay, and Zhou Jian has invested both, and he sold all his net worth to fight against the water, so he should have a little return.
Zhou Jian was right, of course, there is also a lot of luck in it, the so-called ghost killer is a thief with spiritual ability, to put it bluntly, it is a combination of the master profession and the thief profession.
Generally, the mental power attribute of thieves does not exceed twenty, but the attribute of ghost slayer will greatly increase every time they upgrade their spiritual power. With psychic energy, you can fetch objects in the air, control monsters, use psychic attacks, and more.
Thieves are already proficient in assassination, if they can control it remotely, understand spiritual abilities, and reach the realm of no trace and everything in the world is a weapon, then their assassination skills will reach the point of terror, and the name of the ghost killer comes from this.
Zhou Jian originally wanted to upgrade in a low-key manner, but soon the opening of the new dungeon and the high reward after passing the dungeon made him tempted, but it was impossible for him to break into the dungeon alone, so he showed his hand a few times in the Tianzun Guild, and finally he was able to enter the Tianzun team.
In fact, although Zhou Jian is a hidden professional ghost slayer, his future achievements will definitely be not small, but he has not had time to upgrade yet, he has only learned the most basic skill of a control division, taking things from the air, and the combat effectiveness is not worth mentioning in the Tianzun team at all.
But this dungeon is more special.,Fifteen people enter the dungeon.,Fourteen of them are combatants.,The last one is the "messenger", the messenger's task is to be in charge of placing the mission item given by the NPC - the seal of the amulet Pandora on the altar of the demon king when the other fourteen people are fighting with the servants of the ultimate boss, and seal the heart of the demon king.
In this game dungeon, the Demon King's minion is responsible for guarding the Demon King's heart, and its power also comes from the Demon King's heart, as long as the heart is sealed, the power of the Demon King's minions will be sharply reduced, and it will be much easier to kill.
However, the altar that holds the heart of the Demon King is actually a magma furnace, and the heart is suspended on it, no matter how many levels you have, jumping into the magma will definitely die, so the only person who can be a messenger is the master, and with the help of telekinesis, Pandora's seal is placed on the heart of the Demon King.
But a new problem came out again, there was a circle of monsters around the altar, and it was impossible for the brittle and slow controller to slowly walk into the monster pile, pose for it, and then perform a teleportation, and arrange Pandora's seal at all.
Hundreds of squads in the world tried all kinds of methods and failed, and in the end they chose not to be the messenger, and fought hard for the final boss, and finally the army was wiped out......
And Zhou Jian, although a piece of equipment is either the garbage obtained from the task, or the stall goods in the store, in terms of body, he is not as good as the high-level master, and the monster will die if he touches it, but he has two skills: the stealth of the thief, and the air fetch of the master, he is too suitable to do this task.
Stealth stealth through the monster group, a telekinesis throws the seal up, the world is harmonious, and then he doesn't have to care about anything, just wait for the boss to die, get a huge amount of experience, a purple epic equipment rewarded by the system, six allocable attribute points, 1000 honor points, in addition, there is unknown equipment dropped by the boss.
It is worth mentioning that the treasures in "Gods and Demons" are dropped by players, and each player can only see their own equipment, gold coins, and medicines, which can be picked up slowly, and all the equipment that is picked up and bound is the equipment of the profession, and there is no need to worry about playing something that can neither be used nor traded.
In this way, the loot is eliminated, and the problem of unfair distribution of the loot, if there is anyone who can't hit the equipment in this setting, then they have to blame their own appearance problems, and go to help the grandmother cross the road. Therefore, Zhou Jian is not afraid that he will not be able to share the spoils because of his low level.
Zhou Jian is having such a dream and logging into the game, but after he put on his helmet, he got a message that made him fall from heaven to hell, and the system prompted: The ghost slayer "Dark Sword" character does not exist, the system data is lost, and the reason for the loss: unknown.
I rub!
Are you kidding!
Zhou Jian didn't believe in evil and logged in again, and the prompt was still the same.
I grass!
Zhou Jian is crazy, three months of hard work, so much effort, just waiting to play this game to earn a little silver, and pay off the foreign debt to buy a helmet, how can this be the result?
In these three months, Zhou Jian has hardly attended classes, although the university can skip classes, but it does not mean that there is no punishment for skipping classes, Zhou Jian has taken a lot of teachers' small books, just waiting for the exam to clean you up, it can be said that Zhou Jian's retake is already a sure thing.
At Lingnan University, you have to pay a retake fee! 100 yuan for each credit, and Zhou Jian conservatively estimates that he will have to pay 1,800 yuan for this retake.
After all, in the eyes of most people, although he can earn a lot of money by playing well online, it is not always a legitimate profession, so even if Zhou Jian is fortunate enough to come to a class with beautiful women, it is basically no fun for him to have a little love in college.
If he loses his game account again, he will really be beaten and there will be nothing.
Zhou Jian tried to log in to the account over and over again, but what he got was always a ruthless prompt from the system, he took off the game helmet a little depressed, and at this moment the door of the dormitory was pushed open, and a big man with a height of one meter eight or five walked in, this guy has a tall nose, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks like a dog, at this time he is turning a basketball in his right hand, holding a box lunch in his left hand, wearing a red basketball vest, yellow sports shorts underneath, and his exposed calves are covered with a piece of hairy leg hair.
This person's name is Luo Haishan, and his nickname is "Mule". He was Zhou Jian's best friend from primary school to university, and the two applied for the Chinese Department of Lingnan University together during the college entrance examination, and later were "coincidentally" assigned to a dormitory, saying that it was "coincidental", but in fact, there were three boys in their class, and all of them were assigned to a dormitory that was not full......
"It's amazing, you didn't actually play "Gods and Demons", didn't you brush up on copies today? I don't play basketball, just to come back to see you. Luo Haishan casually put down the boxed lunch, this is Zhou Jian's dinner, he has been devoted to the game in the past few months, and the dinner is bought by mules.
Zhou Jian shook his head helplessly and told what happened.
"Isn't it, that's all right? Doesn't Gods and Demons claim to have the most powerful servers in the world? How could this kind of mistake happen?"
"I don't know, I'm going to report to the official website to send an email and see if I can get it back. "That being said, but Zhou Jian doesn't have any bottom in his heart, "Gods and Demons" is a world-class game, there are too many players, and the customer service has to deal with an unimaginable number of emails every day, and Zhou Jian has zero money invested in "Gods and Demons", which is the so-called non-RMB players, and the priority is very low, and if you want to solve the problem, you don't know that it will take the year of the monkey, and even if the account is retrieved by then, its value is far less than now. And even if the email is seen by the "Gods and Demons" customer service, can the lost system data really be recovered?
"It's okay, our brother is coming to Japan for a long time, eat first. The mule handed over the lunch box.
Zhou Jian opened the lunch box depressedly, and wrote an email to the official website while eating, "Alas, I originally wanted to make some money from "Gods and Demons", but now it seems that the 8,000 helmet money owed to you is enough this year." ”
Zhou Jian's money to buy a helmet is borrowed from a mule, a total of 8,200 yuan, if an online game account plays well, it is no problem to earn a few thousand yuan a month, Zhou Jian originally planned to pay off the money owed to the mule this semester, but now it seems that there is little hope.
In this era, the monthly income of middle-level and high-level white-collar workers in big cities is generally more than 10,000 yuan, and of course consumption has risen accordingly, but 8,000 is still a huge amount of money for a student, especially Zhou Jian's family is not very good, and the living expenses for a year are only 5,000 yuan.
The mule took out two cans of beer from under the bed, pulled out one and handed it to Zhou Jian, "I'm bored, I can bear this little money, don't mention it to me again." It's not that I don't know the strength of your goods, when I borrowed money, I estimated that you were going to lose, and I didn't prepare you to pay it back, although you later got a hidden profession by **** luck, and as a result, the best thing like losing data in the system can be caught up by you, purely a matter of appearance, who do you blame. ”
Zhou Jian knew that the mule was harming himself purely to adjust the atmosphere, if he was in normal times, he would definitely have to lose it back, but today he was not in the mood, "Okay, I'm so miserable and hurt me, it's okay, I can bear it, even if I really can't find it back, I'll start from scratch, anyway, the helmet is still there." ”
"Haha that's a good point, come on, let's have a drink. ”
At this moment, Zhou Jian's phone rang.
He didn't want to answer, but when he saw that it was his mother's number, he had to adjust his mood, picked up the phone, and called out in as calm a tone as possible, "Mom." ”
"Xiaojian, why did I get a call from the head teacher, saying that you don't go to class anymore?"
Zhou Jian suddenly had a head and two big, this beautiful head teacher was really full, even the counselor didn't care about these trivial things, she actually called her home, didn't she hit him three inches.
There's no way, this beautiful homeroom teacher is a graduate student who has just graduated, and her work is so serious that she can't explain it.
"Mom, what's the matter, I wasn't very well a few days ago, and I didn't miss many classes. Although Zhou Jian is filial, it is easy to lie to his parents, and in his words, it is a "white lie".
"Don't think your mother and I are confused, I heard your head teacher say that you bought a game helmet and played online games every day, and the cheapest game helmet cost more than 8,000 yuan, where did you get so much money?"
Zhou Jian has nothing to say, although his relationship with the mule is iron, but he must not tell his mother about borrowing money, if she knows that she borrows money to play games, she must be sick, you know, he still relies on student loans to study at Lingnan University.
And online games can't be explained to her at all, Zhou Jian does like to play online games, but the purpose of his online games is also to make money, reduce the burden on the family, the current online game profits are too high, just imagine a platform with more than 100 million players, not to mention anything else, how much money does media advertising revenue have to be? France has a large population, which is equivalent to a populous country!
Zhou Jian believes that "Gods and Demons" will continue to play and can change his life, of course, it is full of hardships, but on the other hand, if he goes to struggle in society, in this era when undergraduates are not as good as pigs and dogs, it may be more difficult to break out of the sky than to play "Gods and Demons".
After that, Zhou Jian has been receiving his mother's ideological education, and after more than ten minutes, he finally put down the phone.
The mule smiled and said to Zhou Jian: "Haha, it seems that our beautiful head teacher cares about you, the beauty is unbearable, you are blessed." ”
"I'm dizzy, you don't have a little virtue on your mouth. ”
The mule smiled and took a sip of wine, his expression a little more serious, "What's the plan?" or decided to keep playing online games?"
Zhou Jian nodded, "I don't have a bit of a family foundation like you, I have no strengths, and it's not easy to find a job in my major, four years later, I want to survive in the flower city with housing prices of more than 10,000 yuan, I must start now, otherwise I won't be able to pay off my student loans in the future, and ...... My dad isn't in good health. ”
Zhou Jian lives in the countryside, and his parents opened a small rural clinic, but his father has always been in poor health, and he eats his own medicine while selling it.
Zhou Jian's burden on fitness is very heavy, and now the social pressure is too great, even if Zhou Jian graduates with excellent grades in various subjects, he will not be able to find a high-paying job in Huadu without any work experience, and even if he finds it, the family's arrears, including student loans, are enough for him to go for two or three years, and at that time, getting married and falling in love is too luxurious for him.
So when others are still in love and fantasizing about the future in their freshman year, he has to start working hard.
The mule patted Zhou Jian on the shoulder, "Don't say anything, brother supports you, come, let's have a drink." ”
......
The two drank for an hour and got half a case of beer, the mule was massive, and Zhou Jian drank averagely, and he drank in a daze, and went to bed at ten o'clock.
As for the mule, he rented a house outside, lived with his girlfriend, and when Zhou Jian fell asleep, he went out to accompany his girlfriend, and he made an appointment with his girlfriend to go shopping tomorrow.
The mule's girlfriend is his neighbor, the two childhood sweethearts, a large part of the reason why the mule applied for the Chinese Department of Lingnan University is for her, the woman's family situation is also good, the parents of both parties have met, and said that they will get married after graduation.
As for Zhou Jian's other roommate, his name is Wang Xiaoyin, and like Zhou Jian, he is also a single. He's a native of Huadu and it's going to be tomorrow weekend, so he's skipping class in the afternoon and going home.
So today, Zhou Jian is the only one in the dormitory.
In a daze, Zhou Jian had a dream, dreaming that he had become a thief who could fly away, punish the evil and eliminate the evil, steal the secret treasure, be happy and revenge, have countless family properties, and win the hearts of countless beauties......
Zhou Jian in the dream was so awesome, so even he realized that he was dreaming, and later, Zhou Jian woke up with urine because he drank too much, and the dream was half done.
What a strange dream, Zhou Jian got up in a daze, but suddenly saw a person standing in front of his desk, and he couldn't see his face clearly......
Zhou Jian was startled, and his sleepiness was gone, "Damn, Xiaoyin, you want to scare me to death if you don't sleep in the middle of the night!"
No Echo......
Wait, although that person looks about the same height as Xiao Drink, but the silhouette doesn't look very similar, and Xiao Drink went home today, so there's no reason to go back to the dormitory in the middle of the night.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jian chuckled in his heart, who is this person? What do you want to do when you come in?
Thieves, robbers, murderers?
Zhou Jian felt a chill down his spine, and subconsciously reached out to touch the guy who was in his hand, but he only touched his mobile phone.
"Who the hell are you?"
Zhou Jian turned on the backlight, looked at it through the light, and almost screamed, the person standing in front of the desk turned out to be ...... Myself?
How is this possible!?
But looking at the facial features, they are clearly exactly the same as themselves, if that is themselves, then what is the "this mass" lying on the bed?
Still dreaming?
Drunk too much and dazzled?
Absolutely not, this real and clear feeling is certainly not fake.
Could it be that I crashed to death while sleepwalking, and then my soul went out of my body?
The soul in the bed, the body in front of the desk?
Damn, what a joke!
Zhou Jian's heart was furious, and he rolled out of bed as soon as he turned over, "Bang!"
The old fluorescent lamp flickered, as if it couldn't be activated, and the figure flickered in the flickering light, which was a long time......
Zhou Jian subconsciously clenched the mobile phone, this antique brick mobile phone was not light, he thought that if the figure pounced, he would throw the mobile phone out with all his might, and he expected to break his head.
Finally, the whole room lit up, and after Zhou Jian saw the scene in front of him, his mouth was wide enough to put down an egg, and he just looked at the "self" in front of the table blankly, unable to speak for a long time.
That person was indeed exactly the same as himself, but his eyes were not half bright, but this was not the reason why Zhou Jian was surprised, after all, he was already mentally prepared. To his surprise, the man was wearing the Tomb Robber cloak from the Gods and Demons game, a pair of blood-colored attack claws tied to his hands, wind guards on his legs, and speed boots on his feet. Looking further down his neck and hands, there was the Assassin's Ring and the Wind Necklace.
This...... Isn't this the gear you wore in Gods and Demons?
Zhou Jian felt that his head was not enough, what did this mean? Could it be that this ...... Is this person the "self" in the game?
In the online game "Gods and Demons", the appearance of the game character will reflect the appearance of real people, of course, if the player is unwilling to reveal his appearance, he can choose to mask his face, or he can be appropriately disguised, Zhou Jianyong has always been his original appearance. In other words, Zhou Jian's appearance in the game is exactly the same as this guy at the desk.
It won't be ...... His character in the game, the ghost slayer, "jumped" out of the system and came to the real world, right?
That's why the system loses the data, and everything is explained quite "reasonably", but ...... How could such a thing happen?
Zhou Jian touched "himself" face, and the feeling was exactly the same as that of a real person, but the person seemed to be unconscious, like a robot.
Zhou Jian suddenly realized a ridiculous possibility, he took the game helmet, put it on, and started the game.
"Di-" system prompt: The ghost slayer "Dark Sword" character does not exist, the system data is lost, and the reason for the loss: unknown.
However, although the system prompted this, Zhou Jian still entered the "game", his vision was blurred at first, and then it became clear, and the role switch was successful, but the scene in front of him was not the ancient city of Pangu in the game, but the 522 dormitory that he was extremely familiar with, and in front of him sat "himself" wearing a game helmet.
In other words, his consciousness switched from his original self to the Ghost Slayer Darksword, and the two of them were in the same room.
Good guys, this joke is too big!
Zhou Jian moved his "new body" and checked his attributes, strength: 40, agility: 120, stamina: 40, mana: 20, spirit: 20.
He jumped casually, jumped directly from the desk to the door, and stepped five or six meters away.
Zhou Jian took a deep breath, took out the key of the thief on his body, activated the lock-picking skill, and pounded twice on the door, and the door opened.
The abilities are exactly the same as in the game!
He felt a little confused, came to the balcony, looked down downstairs from the balcony, it was more than two o'clock in the morning, in the dead of night, there was no one outside, and behind the dormitory building was the mountain behind the school, even in the daytime, there were few people.
Zhou Jian's heart was horizontal, and he gritted his teeth and jumped down.
This is the fifth floor, although Zhou Jian has done similar actions many times in the game, but when he tries it in real life, he still feels his scalp tingle.
The howling wind was coming, and Zhou Jian felt like a big bird, and his body was very light.
"Smack!"
landed safely, Zhou Jian rolled on the ground, his legs were slightly numb, but it was not a big problem, this was more real than the feeling in the game.
Looking up at his dormitory, he almost disappeared into the darkness, and although the scene was extremely real, he still felt like a dream.
Jump!
Zhou Jian jumped out of four or five meters high, climbed directly on the balcony on the second floor, and then jumped again with his arms, like a gecko climbing on the wall of the dormitory building, it only took half a minute to climb from downstairs to the fifth floor, back to the balcony of his dormitory!
It's really exactly the same as the abilities of the ghost slayer in the game!
Zhou Jian took a deep breath, and a mixture of excitement and joy gradually emerged in his heart.
Now Zhou Jian is short of money, very short of money, so after he got such a ghost slayer that can be controlled, the first thing that comes to his mind is how to use it to make money.
To put it bluntly, a ghost killer is a thief or an assassin, but in the real world, stealing and killing people are both illegal and can't do this.
It's a pity that there are no Olympics now, and if you don't use your physical advantage to participate in the Olympics, you will definitely get a lot of gold medals and bonuses.
The Olympics were cancelled fifteen years ago, mainly due to the rise of Gu Wu, and the disciples of the Gu Wu family could easily break world records, and for them, participating in the Olympics was only about whose martial arts were high.
After the catastrophe in the middle of the last century, ancient martial arts gradually began to infiltrate into the real society, in Huaxia, there are seven ancient martial arts families, they are all high-ranking figures for ordinary people, if it is normal, Zhou Jian will not have any intersection with them.
Go to the Guwu family to be an instructor or elder or something, and get a high salary?
It doesn't seem to work, after all, I'm still in school, and besides, the Gu Wu family has some connections with the government, once the secret of the ghost killer is discovered, I'm afraid the government will intervene and conduct house arrest research on himself in the name of exploring unknown science or safeguarding national security, and he won't be able to become a guinea pig.
Make hay...... Make hay...... What is the most profitable thing to do?
It seems to be opening a company, but what can you do with a ghost slayer to open a company? It's more reliable to open a martial arts gym......
Wait, start a company, Zhou Jian suddenly had an idea, and he opened a bounty hunter company!
However, opening a company is not a simple matter, it requires a venue and a registered capital.
And the bounty hunter company is not a serious company at first glance, and the government is not expected to approve it, so it can only contact people privately, but the question arises again, how to make a name for yourself, how to contact employers?
Maybe they will be beaten by the urban management troops, but even if they do, can people believe it?
It's easy to imagine, but it's not an ordinary trouble to operate.
Zhou Jian felt that the alcohol strength of last night had not passed, thinking that these things were messing around, forget it, let's go to bed first.
He exits the game and takes off his helmet, which makes the ghost slayer standing in the room disappear into thin air.
Hey?
Where did this guy go? It's not going to be gone, God, don't play with me.
Zhou Jian put on a helmet again, and he couldn't help but recite a few words of Amitabha Buddha, after logging into the game, his consciousness switched again, and Zhou Jian became a ghost killer again.
Looking at his deity sitting on the stool, Zhou Jian breathed a sigh of relief, good guy, I'm scared to death.
Exit the game and the Ghost Slayer disappears again.
Zhou Jian tried and tested several times, and finally determined that as long as he wore a helmet, the ghost killer would appear, and when he took off the helmet, the ghost killer would hide.
In the future, let's call this puppet a "famous sword", thinking like this, Zhou Jian climbed into bed and went to sleep.
This night, Zhou Jian slept very sweetly.
When he woke up, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and if it was a normal day, he would definitely not be willing to sleep so late, because there were the least people in the server in the morning, and it was much faster to upgrade or do tasks.
This weekend, the mule went with the woman, Xiaoyin went home, Zhou Jian was alone in the dormitory, he was used to putting on a helmet when he got up, and entered the game, and now he suddenly had nothing to do, Zhou Jian felt empty, or think about how to make money with ghost killers.
Zhou Jian wanted to search on the Internet, how do those masters of the ancient martial arts family usually make money, but at this moment, his phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number.
After connecting, an unusually sweet voice sounded, "Hello, are you Mr. Zhou Jian?"
"It's me, may I ask who you are?"
"Mr. Zhou Jian, I am the customer service staff of "Gods and Demons", we received your email, and you said in the email that the data of the game character 'Dark Sword' system you established was lost, right?"
Zhou Jian was stunned suddenly, the staff of "Gods and Demons", it is impossible, with their own priority, how can the email sent be seen by the customer service so quickly, not to mention that this weekend, there must be fewer customer service staff on duty than usual.
However, doubts are doubts, Zhou Jian was still overjoyed to receive a call from the customer service staff, "Yes, have you got the account back?"
