Chapter 68: Closed Beta?!
"Closed beta!?"
Chen Lun was taken aback.
He suddenly realized that he had missed this information.
Because of my previous life, when I first came into contact with "Mysterious Times", it was already the open beta 1.0 version, so I didn't have much impression of the closed beta.
Now that I think about it, there was indeed a three-day closed beta.
For players, the flow of time between "reality" and "game" is inconsistent, reaching a 1:5 ratio. The official explanation is to make the most of sleep time and extend human life in such a different way.
Three days of closed beta, converted to the time in this world, is equivalent to two weeks.
Chen Lun casually found a chair and sat down and began to ponder.
As he recalled, he remembered more and more. At the beginning, there seemed to be tens of thousands of places in the internal test, and these places were extremely precious, and they even reached hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Because except for a very small number of places, which are randomly selected from the society, most of the rest have been set by major guilds, high games and anchors.
The internal test is the first opportunity advantage, you can familiarize yourself with the game world in advance, and win at the starting line. As the world's first holographic online game at that time, "Mysterious Times" contained endless business opportunities and wealth, and it was impossible for major consortia to let go of such opportunities.
"Will the first beta players arrive tomorrow morning......
Chen Lun groaned.
"But Amber City can't be a 'novice village', and if you want to get in touch with them, you have to travel a long way...... That way, my time doesn't allow. ”
After thinking for a moment, Chen Lun dispelled the idea of going to them.
Tens of thousands of beta players seem to be a lot, but they are distributed throughout the Sun Continent, like a drop of water falling into the sea, and they can't splash the slightest wave.
Instead of going to a remote town to find it, it's better to wait and seek.
He plans to take advantage of the Iron Fist's intelligence advantage in the outer city to place eyeliner for him, and if he sees the existence of a suspected player, he can report it to him in time.
……
Early the next morning.
Eight o'clock sharp.
Gem Bang Fossil City, Emerald Town.
Outside the fence of a farm in the suburbs, dozens of figures appeared out of thin air.
"The game is on?!"
"Am I in the game world?"
"Blanch! That's so realistic, isn't it?! ”
They were all dressed in ordinary linen robes, dressed as low-level civilians. Almost everyone had shock and curiosity on their faces, and several players threw themselves on the ground to play with weeds and dirt.
"Good fellows! Not only does the dirt smell of earth, but the grass smells of grass...... Why does this cow dung taste so authentic?! Vomit! ”
A male player grabbed a ball of ingredients for the old eight recipe in his hand and vomited a few bites, but his face was excited.
A few players in the corner are a little calmer, and while they're just curious about the new environment, they don't do any outrageous performance art.
A young man with a "North Star" game ID stood silently, he glanced at the old eight-timers and the players who were dancing, and climbed over the fence and walked towards the farmstead.
"Hello, hello! Meet me, my name is Su Keying! ”
A female player with her long hair turned burgundy ran up to him and shouted at him.
Polaris stopped and looked up at the top of her head.
"Your real name for your game ID?"
"Ah...... Haha, yes, I struggled for a long time when I entered the game and queued up, and finally I used my own name to forget it. ”
Su Keying said with a smile.
Polaris turned and walked in, not going to make small talk with the woman. But Su Keying followed, looking familiar.
"Is there anything wrong with you?"
Polaris glanced at her.
Su Keying pursed her lips and gave him a blank look.
"Don't be so cold, okay...... We're also the first batch of beta players, so let's help each other. ”
"Then why don't you go to those people?"
Polaris pointed behind him without looking back.
Su Keying looked back, and several guys had already joined the Eighth Family and vomited in place. But they seemed to have fun, even jumping into the farm and rolling in the fields.
She chuckled and turned around.
"I think you're reliable."
Su Keying patted her plain, and then said:
"I'm a full-time streamer, and I usually run my own video channel, and I like to record some game story-oriented works......
This time, I finally got a place for the internal test.,I'm going to do a phase of the first material.。 ”
"That's good, I'll watch your video then."
Polaris said lightly.
"Hey, let's work together...... If you encounter any trouble, you can still help each other, I can give you the resources first, how about it? ”
Su Keying said.
"We'll talk about it then."
Polaris leaped from a haystack into the interior of the farm, followed by Su Keying.
"You ...... guy"
She didn't give up, gritted her teeth and chased after her.
After walking for a while, they saw a farmer in a straw hat working in the stable.
"Hello? How can I help you? ”
Polaris walked over and asked tentatively.
When the farmer heard this, he turned his head to look at the two of them, and his face was shocked.
Why did two strangers suddenly break into your farm?!
He just wanted to open his mouth to scold and question, but he was stunned for a moment, and then showed a sudden look. Pointing to the other two warehouses, he said casually:
"There's tools there, you can help me cut the grass in the field, collect it and pack it...... You can also go and feed the livestock and get some water. ”
The farmer groaned and patted his head.
"Yes, the roof of one room is broken, and it would be nice if you could help me fix it.
Don't worry, I'll pay you. ”
In the next second, both Polaris and Su Keying received mission prompts.
They looked at each other and tacitly accepted the task.
Polaris glanced at his panel, and then tentatively unleashed the "probe" function on the farmer.
Name: Tom
Race: Human (Eastern Continent)
Grade: 4
Health: 50/50
Occupation: [Farmer LV4]
Attributes:——
Skill: Fight to fork LVMAX、——
Combat power: 5
[Danger: Medium]
[Favorability: Cold]
[Evaluation: Even if you are a scumbag, you can be stabbed to death with a pitchfork!] 】
Polaris doesn't like attacking NPCs for no reason, and he's going to try his hand at quests first. Su Keying had the same plan as him, but she didn't follow Polaris to the warehouse to get tools as soon as possible, but leaned over to talk to the farmer.
Perhaps it is because the character that Su Keying pinched for herself is good-looking, coupled with the blessing of gender, the farmer's attitude towards her is obviously better than that of Polaris.
After talking for a while, Su Keying found that other players had slowly followed.
She politely said goodbye and left.
The players in the back saw the two of them in action and guessed that they could get the quest from the farmer, so they rushed over.
Su Keying went straight to the warehouse, and Polaris had already walked out with two scythes.
"Whoa."
Polaris handed it over, and Su Keying took it and chuckled.
"Hey, for the sake of your initiative, I'll tell you the information I just found......"
Polaris raised an eyebrow, as if interested.
Su Keying's voice was lowered, and she said mysteriously:
"As long as you earn enough money for 5 copper crowe tickets, you can enter Emerald Town.
There are certainly more opportunities there than in this wilderness, and besides, I heard that the Red Apple Church in town is being rebuilt, maybe we can join them and maybe take advantage of the opportunity to gain supernatural powers! ”
