"Wow, the customs of the other world are really interesting, I really like the kind of little game where you can drink openly, and I finally found the reason why those junior disciples are so good at making decisions.

It turns out that it is a dexterous finger cultivated from a small stroke! It's no wonder that a few secret magic seals that are so complicated that they can sprain their fingers can't stop them. ”

At midnight, Murphy helped the already drunk Triss back to the Blood Vulture Corridor with a blank face, and the Blood Vulture Grand Duke who was supported by him on the waist would have no dignity as a strong man, and his cheeks were red and fluttering, and he was still sighing that this otherworldly banquet was so comfortable.

Of course, she didn't actually eat much.

After all, the Otherworldly Sichuan flavor is still a bit too "violent" for the taste of traditional vampires.

Even the always brave Maxim fell in front of a plate of spicy rabbit heads, not to mention an "old lady" like Tracey, who would scream when Murphy cooked for her with a bowl of meatball soup with a little chili oil.

Tracey's happiness doesn't lie in tasting otherworldly dishes.

Her pleasure is simple.

The reason was that the student party came over to toast during the meal, which was supposed to show respect for Master Murphy and Lady Tracy, but after asking about the table manners of the other world, Tracy immediately came to her senses, and it only took two hours to show the super strength of the vampire alcoholic in this regard.

The student party was all drunk, and even when the group of old guns in the big bird went around the regiment one by one, they were confused.

Tracey's ability to stand speaks volumes about her supernatural talent at this.

That is, the vampire has a peculiar physiological form, and there is no need to go to the toilet so many times, otherwise Tracey's stomach will blow up.

Murphy didn't expect Tracey to be so happy tonight, and he didn't stop his "girlfriend" from enjoying her simple pleasures.

Except that it's a bit annoying to have to carry her back to the office at the end.

"Don't drink so much next time, it's a shame for you."

The Doge sighed and pushed open the door to her office with Tris, who was already napping, only to see a set of alchemist tools still in operation on the messy table.

The psionic fire burned silently under predetermined conditions, and the liquid in the large beaker had become viscous and gave off a strange smell.

Murphy knew nothing about alchemy.

But he probably understood that Tracey seemed to be doing some kind of crystallization operation, and instead of messing with the things, he intended to bring Tracey back to his side so that she could rest.

Before leaving, though, Murphy keenly noticed a card that Tracey had placed on the table, and the drawing on it made his eyes wider.

"Is the periodic table the otherworldly knowledge that Lumina brought back to you last time? That young lady really has a big heart, and she dares to teach anything. She also taught you this kind of laboratory-style crystallization, right? ”

Murphy complained, carefully closed the door and took Tracey back to his office, placed her on his small bed, helped her take off her coat and cover her with a blanket, and finally leaned down and kissed Tracey on the forehead.

In fact, if Murphy had been a little worse in this case, Tracey's innocence would probably have been gone.

His Excellency the Governor, however, showed a considerable degree of restraint, after all, it was not necessary to go so fast as a simple kidney walk, and he got up and sat down in his chair to read the posts on the forum.

This is already a necessary operation for Murphy before going to bed every day, like a stubborn habit, and it is not fragrant to sleep without brushing a few times a day.

But when he opened the forum just now, he saw a private message from [Wrist Hao].

Wrist Hao: [Hello, administrator, I'm a player who just entered the game today, and I have a reluctant request about a friend of mine.

He's in a troubled situation in the real world, and I'd like to use your technology to help him figure it out. If I can, I will tell you the truth about his situation. 】

Murphy blinked.

The situation described by Mr. Li made him think of Xiao Weiming, a very special player, so he replied without hesitation:

Alpha: [I need more specific information before I can apply to the development team.]

In addition, please understand that the current game test logic of "Real Otherworld" is based on the tester's complete independent decision-making to participate in the progress of the story, that is, we will not use forced methods to send out the game terminal.

This is important!

Even if my report is approved, you'll need to ask your friend to fill out the test application in person. 】

Wrist Ho: [Of course, I'll be on my way to his house, Mr. Administrator.] 】

Alpha: [Just call me Fa Ge like them, don't be so formal, but your friend's situation is so bad that he needs to use our game terminal to return to normal life?] 】

Wrist Hao: [Well, it's not that bad, it's still much better than Xiao Weiming's situation, but my friend's biggest problem is not his body, but his psychology.

Before I had a car accident with him, he was a promising lawyer.

But after the turn of his life, he not only lost his life but also lost his job, although the other party's compensation is enough to ensure that he has no worries about food and clothing, but you also know that for those who have a pursuit, it is more painful to break his dream than physical torture.

He has been decadent all these years and has lost hope in reality.

I can't think of a better way to help him.

But maybe starting over in another world would make him feel better? 】

The administrator didn't reply immediately, which made Mr. Li, who was sitting in a taxi, a little worried, maybe because the administrator was also assessing the situation?

This is certainly not the case.

Murphy didn't reply because he had encountered a "special situation", and the drunken Tracey got up with a blanket in a daze like sleepwalking, and pushed open the door and went out under Murphy's stunned gaze.

Murphy heard the noise in the office next door and chased it out to take a look, and found that Tracey had actually uncrystallized the running alchemy tool in a sleepwalking state.

She tossed a lot of ingredients into the viscous liquid with her eyes closed and continued to boil, then yawned and returned to Murphy's office to continue sleeping.

This whole process made the Governor look stupid, and he said that this alchemy master is really different.

But just as he closed his eyes and returned to the forum, about to reply to Mr. Li, he felt something strange approaching him. When he opened his eyes, Tris, who had been sleeping on the bed, approached him again in a daze, trying to get into his arms, which made Murphy smile helplessly, and opened his arms to hold Tracy in his arms.

The Grand Duke of the Blood Vulture, who had finally found the "place of peace", snorted a few times in satisfaction, rubbed his head against Murphy's chest, and then curled up in a blanket and fell asleep again.

Murphy, who didn't want to disturb her, maintained this posture and leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and entered the forum to answer to Teacher Li:

Alpha: [My report has been sent to the development team, and they don't have a card review because of the 'Jewel in front' with the name of Xiao Wei. However, your friend's situation is unique, so the medical team asked me to make sure that he must come to the test voluntarily, otherwise it will involve some troublesome legal issues.

If you can make sure of that, then I will arrange for the gaming terminal to be sent to him as soon as possible after he has applied.

According to the current progress of the game, the Translancia Administration has been unable to come up with a working code because of the lack of relevant professionals, and the colleagues of the company's legal department are unable to directly participate in the game process due to contractual reasons.

So, if your friends are willing to join in the event, we'd love to do it. 】

[That's good, that's good, please wait for my news, thank you, Fa Ge, this means a lot to me and my friends. I won't bother you with your work, thank you. 】

Alpha: [You're welcome, Mr. Lee, we are honored to be a part of the team, and the development team is cheering on your wonderful fight with Mr. Turner.]

This battle proves that the fighting logic designed by the procedural apes has been proven, and it is also significant for them to design the various functions of the warrior monk class in the future.

Also, my colleagues in the development team asked you if you would be willing to invite professionals like you to participate in playtesting, if you could.

As you may be aware, the game we're working on so far has some flaws in terms of combat, and we need a lot of data to get it to a satisfying level. 】

Wrist Hao: [!! Don't you think it's enough for such a realistic combat experience? 】

Alpha: [Well, it's definitely enough under normal circumstances, but our game is set in a fantasy setting, and there will definitely be a lot of supernatural forces involved. 】

Wrist Hao: [Oh, oh, I really didn't notice that.

In my personal experience, if I can, I will definitely invite more like-minded people to learn from each other here, not to mention that in the game, we can fight with all our strength without considering the factor of accidental injury, which is really great for those of us who practice martial arts. 】

Alpha: [Then thank you, I will prepare a number of 'special invitation slots' for you, and all the testers you invite can go through the special channel for approval.]

But please also check for us when invited, those who are not right-minded. 】

Wrist Hao: [Understood! Please rest assured. 】

It is very comfortable to deal with a person like Mr. Li who has rich social experience and his own bottom line, and Murphy only needs to click until the other party can understand his thoughts.

As he said, through the entry point of Mr. Li, maybe he can really bring him a lot of surprises in the future, not to mention anything else, if there are thirty or forty elite warrior monks under Murphy's command who are as fierce as Lao Li, then like the jackal warlords before, Murphy can nip them in the bud.

On this continent, warrior monks can not only chant scriptures, but in the realm of covert operations, these martial arts masters will never lose to those guys in the Thieves' Guild.

After dealing with Mr. Li's incident, Murphy read today's hot post on the forum again.

The above is full of complaints and records of the boxing championship, as well as the "work report" posted on the forum by the Riptide Knights, according to Tempal's summary, so far, the number of displaced people who have played the role of the party in the Sikoling has reached a staggering 2,300.

They also organized a special transport team to send these people back to the Crimson Keep, which alone was more reliable than other player teams.

"It seems that the establishment of Fort Riptide is just around the corner."

Murphy smiled, closed the forum, stretched again, and carried Tracy in his arms into his sleep.

After he fell asleep, Triss in his arms suddenly opened her eyes.

The Blood Vulture Grand Duke was still a little drunk, but it was much better than the posture that she was shaking when she walked just now, she silently looked up at the sleeping Murphy, reached out and stroked the hair of his shawl, pouted and complained:

"Coward!"

——

Under the calm night, Mr. Li, who got out of the taxi, limped to a rural courtyard with a cane.

Didn't knock on the door, but took out the key and unlocked it.

The courtyard was very quiet, and the two well-raised border herds looked at the visitor vigilantly, but after recognizing Teacher Li, they wagged their tails and pounced on him to greet him.

Obviously, he was a regular visitor to the courtyard.

"Shh

Teacher Li touched the heads of the two dogs, made a silent gesture to them, and led them through the well-tended garden in the courtyard into the master bedroom, and was about to turn on the light when he heard a voice from the inner room.

"Why are you here at this time? Do you have insomnia and come to me for a drink? ”

"Why haven't you slept yet?"

Lao Li asked in surprise, and then turned on the light and saw a man in a wheelchair pushing wheels out of the inner room.

This person is about the same age as Mr. Li, but he is empty from the waist down, and the amputation of both legs means that what he suffered in the past is difficult for ordinary people to imagine.

But he's in good spirits.

Although he looks old, he cleans himself up and has a sense of politeness, wearing a shirt and sweater and a jacket, and a bookmarked book on the table at hand.

Nietzsche's famous book "The Birth of Tragedy".

A professional book with a high artistic standard but ordinary people are not interested in reading at all, from the wear and tear of this book cover, you know that it is often read, and you can read this kind of book with relish, which fully proves that the person in front of you is not a "serious person".

A crisp suit and loungewear are hung on the entry-level hangers, but the suit is covered with a protective bag and the other is often worn.

He looked at Teacher Li, a smile appeared on his face, and said:

"It's all here, help me make a supper? I'm too lazy to move myself. ”

"Okay."

Lao Li didn't say much, took off his windbreaker and went to the kitchen to be busy.

A bowl of porridge and two dishes were brought to the bedroom in a short time, and while my friend was eating, Mr. Li, who was sitting next to him, lit a cigarette and said:

"I've had a strange thing happen these days."

"Huh? Is it worth your special trip to share with me? ”

The man in the wheelchair smiled and said:

"Listen, I don't have anything else to do anyway."

"I got a gaming headset and I was able to wear it and go to a virtual reality game, and I beat a really good guy in the game today."

Teacher Li puffed out the smoke ring and said:

"Do you think I'm dreaming?"

"If you can make such a wonderful joke, you won't even be able to find a girlfriend when we are in college."

The wheelchair man scoffed at this.

After taking a sip of porridge, he took a handkerchief and wiped his mouth and said:

"Go back, I'm not interested in what you're saying, it's fake! Lao Li, you can't convince me to give up the real and go to the unreal to seek some kind of satisfaction in the unreal that you think I've been looking for.

I've said this to you many times and I'm happy with my life right now. ”

"Satisfied fart!"

Lao Li scolded:

"The first thing I thought of when I found something good was you, and then that's your attitude?

I've found all the way for you, and the development team over there said that they lack a legal professional in the plot to help the plot move forward.

I'm also new to the game and don't know much about it.

But I've heard that the action over there is all player-driven, and that territory is still in the 'rule of man' stage, and they need your knowledge and expertise.

You can also use what you learned in the first half of your life to help some people, Maslow's theory was on your lips when you were young, isn't realizing self-worth what you want most in the first half of your life? ”

"The last person who kept saying he needed my help drove me like this!"

The wheelchair man said in a low tone:

"I still bothered you, weren't you just one step away from your dreams at that time?

My overly successful defense ruined the futures and dreams of both of us in one fell swoop, because I helped my client but wanted to keep my bottom line at the same time.

You never blame me because we're friends.

But I don't feel like I need a second time anymore."

"You said it, you owe me a dream."

Lao Li shrugged his shoulders and pressed the cigarette butt in the ashtray to extinguish.

He said:

"Then pay me back, fill out an application and take a look, you can come back at any time if you feel uncomfortable, no one forces you." And most importantly"

Teacher Li hesitated for a moment, he lowered his voice and said:

"I don't think it's entirely 'fake' over there."

"Huh?"

The wheelchair man looked at him in surprise, and Mr. Li said:

"I can't describe the feeling, but I know that you're a smart guy who can definitely help me figure out my doubts, and a lot of people have gone in. I don't know if it's good or bad, and I'm one of them.

I think it is our responsibility as adults to check the reckless young people.

I really need your help! ”
