Chapter 1 The Boy in the Mountain City

Next Chapter

At noon in September in the mountain city, the scorching sun relentlessly scorched the land, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of butter and a stimulating smell of peppercorns, which made people sniffle more.

Lin Xia, a second-year teenager who has loved martial arts since he was a child. After successfully surviving high school, he was admitted to CW Academy with great difficulty, but he dreamed of being a hero every day. Maybe every boy or girl has such a river and lake in their minds. I dream that one day I can fight the sword and live a happy life. Dreaming of one day riding a horse and galloping, dressed in military uniform. I dream of one day having a group of confidants and friends singing and drinking.

"Below zero (Lin Xia), hurry up and lower the temperature, I'm willing to fight if it's cold, MMP, it's too hot this day." A tall thin man sitting in front of the desk behind Lin Xia said. This person is Lin Xia's college roommate, and he is nicknamed: county magistrate.

"Don't bother me, I'm reading a wonderful book!" Lin Xia replied impatiently.

"Oh, you have a baby, what do you have to see. It's better to really experience it. The tall and skinny man replied boredly.

"Where can you experience it, wear a Hanfu and carry a sword in your hand to the street to do chivalrous deeds?" Lin Xia said self-deprecatingly.

"Haha. You can have it, when I was a child, I watched Old Man Jin's martial arts and I wanted to drop it. But now, maybe you'll be punished by someone else. A little fat man with a round face in the room laughed. This is also Lin Xia's loss roommate. Because he was the third surnamed Wang in the bedroom, he was nicknamed: Wang Xiaosan.

"Then you go!" Lin Xia replied with a smile.

"Son, what I said is true. I read a report yesterday, saying that the domestic Tengyi Group has developed a new game called "Swordsman", which is a martial arts game in the style of ink and water, and the game adopts the AR-X engine technology independently developed in China and the intelligent masterbrain system codenamed "Jianghu". As long as you wear visual sensing gaming glasses, the visual sensing terminal will project the game screen, making you feel as if you are there. It is equipped with sound and tactile sensing system equipment. After wearing it, you can simulate the auditory and tactile sensations in the game as in real life. As a 3C digital enthusiast, the tall and thin man said slowly.

"Really, fake, is it so cool, is it more powerful than that seventh artifact that doesn't drop?" Lin Xia said with a shocked expression of disbelief.

"What are you talking about?" the tall and thin man muttered, and then continued, "It's true, you can go to the official website of "Swordsman" to watch it. ”

Lin Xia hurriedly opened the official website of "Swordsman", but what came to him was a sword that shot rapidly, the whole sword was very gorgeous, the shape was simple, the sword body was streamlined, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Lin Xia's eyebrows.

"WC, what is this? With a scream, Lin Xia was so frightened that he quickly closed the web interface.

"You're a baby, what's the ghost's name? Be quiet!" the roommates grumbled angrily.

"It's so realistic. Didn't you say that you had to wear game glasses to be like you, and I didn't wear them yet, so real?" Lin Xia explained as he opened the page he had just closed.

After opening the page again, the sword that came from the fire slowly stopped, and the picture slowly came into view of a woman dressed in a pink neon skirt, holding a pale pink silk between her hands, and holding the hilt of the sword with five fingers stretched straight forward in her right hand. The woman's facial features are exquisite, and her simple outfit is eye-catching. For a moment, Lin Xia was a little stunned.

Suddenly, I saw the woman return the sword to the sheath, turned around and walked away slowly, and said a faint sentence: "September 21, in the wind and rain, "Swordsman" is waiting for you." ”

Lin Xia glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the computer, and the four days after the freshman military training just finished today is September 19th, and there are still 2 days before the start of the "Swordsman" service.

"County magistrate, do you know where to sell glasses?" Lin Xia hurriedly said to the tall and thin man behind him.

"What are the glasses? Are you suddenly nearsighted?" quipped the tall and thin man.

"Oops, stop making a fuss. I'm talking about Swordsman. Forget it, I'll check it on my own official website. Lin Xia thought about it and said.

The thin and tall man originally wanted to make fun of Lin Xia again, but when he saw that Lin Xia went to check on himself, he didn't talk anymore.

Entering the official website again, Lin Xia checked the game introduction. It turns out that this game is different from other games, and there is no concept of level up. This is destined to be as boring as fighting monsters and hanging up. The game is divided into Spring and Autumn Warring States, Qin, Han, Jin, Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties, a total of 12 characteristic national style server names. As for why there is no Xia Shang Zhou, the official explanation of the game is that the technology is immature. (Actually, the author didn't want to write.) Twelve servers are free for players to enter, and characters can only exist on one server at a time. However, servers that are older can choose to enter the next year of server history if the overall chronological progress history is achieved. For example, if a player is on the "Spring and Autumn Warring States" server, but after completing the server chronicle, all players on the server can freely choose whether to transfer to the next server "Qin". And the "clear" server does not trigger the next server chronicle task. This setting is very innovative, allowing players to experience different adventures and experiences on different servers. The game schools all rely on personal luck, and all schools and martial arts players can obtain them by themselves in the game to comprehend or obtain adventure tasks. The player's game ID can be anonymous in the rivers and lakes. And you can also design your own clothing or weapons that match the characteristics of the server. There is a very serious penalty for the death of a character in the game, which is not specified on the official website. Players can only participate in the development of the server chronicle as a knight, and push the server to complete the chronicle and transfer it to the next chronicle server. The game is controlled by the brain of the intelligent host, and no human intervention system behavior can be performed. The equipment introduction system in "Swordsman" is about casting, sewing, craft and other life systems. The quality of the equipment depends entirely on the player's own creative abilities. The server name is not related to the history of the game server and the history of ancient China, and the player builds the gameplay and history with the NPC on his own. Finally, in the lower right corner, it reads: The rivers and lakes are far away, forge ahead.

"It seems to be a very good game, a game with a high degree of freedom and innovation! It's all waiting for players to explore and create by themselves. Since the server name has nothing to do with ancient Chinese history, is it just a simple server name?, then why should it be indicated?" Lin Xia thought to himself. I went to see where there are special game glasses for "Swordsman" and auditory tactile sensing devices in Xiashan City. Prepare to cool down at night and pull Wang Xiaosan to buy it together.

"Little San, it says that it is sold in the Liberation Monument store. How to get to the Liberation Monument?" Lin Xia raised his head and asked Wang Xiaosan, a round-faced little fat man lying on the bed diagonally opposite.

"Ouch, it's far away, cut from our school, and you have to go down the mountain. It's too hot for me to cut. Your countrymen cut it. Take Line 1 directly. Wang Xiaosan scratched his head and replied.

"I'll invite you to eat hot pot and take me there. Lin Xia pleaded.

"Hey, yes. It's the same as the monk going down the mountain again, and he wants to go to liberate the monument. Wang Xiaosan replied.

In the evening in the mountain city, the lights are on, the residual temperature has not receded, and the air is still hot and dry. But it still can't stop the enthusiasm of the people in the mountain city, just like the pot of hot and spicy seeds. The sticks who came and went also rushed to the place where they settled before it was dark. Life is like a mandarin duck pot, with a bland clear soup and a fiery and passionate red soup, and eventually you have to dip it in a dish full of sweet, sour, bitter and salty oil to swallow, and then swallow the taste of life.

When Lin Xia arrived at the "Swordsman" Liberation Monument store, there was already a long queue at the door to buy equipment. The second floor is the experience floor, and there are also a lot of people experiencing the equipment. It turns out that when you wear VRX glasses, the game screen is processed through the built-in chip of the glasses and projected in front of the player's eyes, and the glasses are equipped with a facial recognition ID device, which can project the player's real face into the game world, of course, you can also fine-tune and pinch your face by yourself (but the micro-scheduling cannot exceed 10%). The auditory setup is a two-earphone acoustic processing device, and the tactile nerve device is a wristband device. By connecting with the game console system, the tactile sense in the game is realistically fed back to the nerves of the player's whole body, allowing the player to approach 100% of the real experience. How on earth does this tactile device work? Can I feel pain in reality when I am killed in the game?

"What will my rivers and lakes be like? Will I become a hero? Will I become famous? What will I meet? Which server should I go to?" Lin Xia Meizi hugged the game equipment she had just bought after queuing up for a long time, and followed Wang Xiaosan in a fartful manner.

But he did not get an answer. No one answered him. Just like the sentence on the official website of the game: the rivers and lakes are far away, forge ahead. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are disputes.

What awaits Lin Xia in the mysterious world of "Swordsman"?
