Chapter 25: Zhao Si Appears
The game forums are quite lively, and many people have uploaded screenshots of the game in the forums.
In addition to orphanages, small towns, villages, refugee settlements, etc., around the city, have become novice villages.
As long as you choose to come to the city independently, the start is relatively normal, and then you can explore the map freely.
However, some players who choose to come randomly are more unlucky, and some people were born directly in the black-hearted mine, and as soon as they opened their eyes, they were whipped by the black-hearted field owner.
"Oh my God, I'm already tired of mining in reality, why do you have to keep mining after entering the game!"
The hapless player let out a feeble wail.
At this moment, five of the six orphans in the dormitory have already begun to act.
Coral City is large, with a population of over a million, and is fairly stable under the rule of the Automaton, with signs of a post-war economic recovery.
"I'm in the southwest of Coral City, what about you?" Yuwenshu asked.
"I'll see...... I'm also in this area. β
"Me too!"
ββ¦β¦β
The arrival of these five guys turned out to be very close.
Li Defu asked, "Brother Su, where are you?" β
"I don't know, I haven't been out of the orphanage yet."
"What's going on?" Li Defu was puzzled, "Brother Su, don't you know how to leave the novice area?" Just control the character and go outside, and along the way, you can talk to some NPCs and ask them if they have a mission. β
The rest of the dorm room are game veterans, having robbed banks in Los Santos and killed chickens in Skyrim, and are familiar with this kind of open world.
They are all worried that Su Xia, a game Xiaobai, is too restrained and will miss many opportunities in the early stage.
Su Xia explained: "Don't worry, I'm not so mentally retarded, it's just that our dean won't let me go." β
He is in a very special situation now, and many players born in the Blackheart Orphanage have not left the orphanage, but have been arranged in the hall of the orphanage, and must listen to a speech.
Some players tried to leave the hall, but were captured by the orphanage guards.
The strength of Su Xia's body was too weak, and he couldn't tell the level of the guards at all.
In front of the hall, the kind old dean said with a smile: "My children, you are about to face the cruel outside world, before you leave, I think you need to know some truth, for this reason, I invited the red man beside the city lord, he is a warrior who endures humiliation and burden, or a hero who abandons the darkness and turns to the light, he is Mr. Zhao Si, let us welcome him together!" β
With that, he began to applaud with a smile on his face.
The guards in the hall also applauded, creating an atmosphere of warm welcome.
At the same time, many of the players present received a mission.
γQuest Acquisition: Genius First Stepγ
[Mission Level: F-]
[Description: Zhao Si used to be a member of the human rebellion, but not long ago, he betrayed his organization, gained countless glory and wealth, and successfully entered the management of Coral City, he will bring you the first speech of your life]
γReward: Titanium Particles x100γ
Zhao Si?
Su Xia's heart moved slightly, and he actually met this traitor here.
It's really a place in life where we don't meet.
At the same time, he noticed that the player's account's quest had a level description.
In the hall, the lights are bright, and the floor tiles are so clean that they can reflect the reflection of people.
A pair of expensive black leather shoes stepped on the floor, the hard soles collided with the floor tiles to make a dull sound, looking up was a very decent suit, the owner of the suit combed the big back of the oily and shiny head, wore gold-rimmed glasses, smiled, and came to everyone with the posture of a successful person.
"Good evening, everyone!"
He opened his hands as if he were being welcomed by someone.
The old dean, as well as many of the guards, immediately began to applaud desperately.
But most of the players didn't react, looking around one by one, not taking this guy seriously at all.
This is the game world, no matter how powerful an NPC you are, players don't have to look at it.
Only Su Xia and a few others applauded.
"Smack-smack-"
Hearing this voice, Zhao Si's eyes lit up, and he looked at Su Xia and the others carefully.
Well, very sensible young man.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the outside world is very cruel, you may be deceived in all kinds, today I will briefly say a little bit, this point, I intend to explain it from three levels, the first level, I divide him into nine stages, this first stage, there are ......"
Zhao Si cleared his throat and opened the speech in an emotional voice.
At this moment, many players here remembered the fear of being dominated by the middle school principal.
The outside world is so beautiful and so novel, countless players have posted their experiences and feelings on the forum, but everyone present can only suffer here.
Time passed minute by minute, and after more than ten minutes, some players couldn't help but complain: "What, how long is this NPC going to talk?" β
Others covered their ears and wailed, "Oh my God, if I listen to it any more I may die!" β
"Death is death now, and death is death for big plans......"
"Why don't you just rush up and cut him down!"
Whining, swearing, screaming......
All kinds of sounds are mixed together, noisy and chaotic, like a vegetable market after work.
"Ahem......"
An embarrassed expression appeared on the old dean's face, and he tilted his head slightly, pretending not to hear anything.
The guards went out and took away the two players who attacked Zhao Si, not knowing where they would take them.
The expression on Zhao Si's face was also unnatural, although he barely maintained a smile, everyone could see that he was in a rather bad mood.
Fortunately, Su Xia, who was sitting in the middle, was still smiling, nodding and applauding from time to time.
This gave Zhao Si some comfort.
"This young man is still good, I'll ask his name later." Zhao Si thought to himself in his heart.
After another ten minutes, the long and torturous speech finally ended.
At the end of the speech, Zhao Si opened his hands again and said, "Students, please give a round of applause if you understand!" β
"The sound of Nyima!"
Someone immediately scolded.
Many of the players present received 100 TiA Particles, and the upgrade progress bar jumped forward by one-tenth.
After the dean opened the door, everyone seemed to be suffocated, and they rushed out, and few of them looked back.
Su Xia was very calm, and got up slowly, intending to ask the old dean if he had any tasks.
Zhao Si immediately stepped off the podium and called out to Su Xia affectionately: "Young man, what's your name?" β
Su Xia replied, "My name is Su Xia. β
"Susha? Good name! β
"What's so good?"
"Good...... Good thing ......"
The smile on Zhao Si's face was suddenly embarrassed, he had never seen anyone talk like this.
The old dean hurriedly walked over to make a round: "Haha, Su Xia, this little guy just likes to joke, Chief Zhao don't think too much, in terms of temperament, he is the best one in this group of orphans." β
"It's natural, I can see it." Zhao Si breathed a sigh of relief, and his smile was still the same.
He took out a business card from his coat pocket and reached out to hand it to Su Xia.
"Young man, if you encounter difficulties in the future, you can come directly to the office building in the city center to find me."
