Chapter 9: Game Fantasy

Out of self-control, Fang Linkong didn't look carefully at the game instructions, and according to the game introduction, he inserted his candidate card into the game console and started the game. This game machine, which looks quite beautiful, immediately appeared on the LCD screen with an English prompt, asking Fang Linkong to press his hand on the sensor on the game console.

Fang Linkong was in a nervous mood, and as soon as he pressed his hand, he felt a strange force from his palm directly to his whole body. In an instant, the scenery around him had changed.

However, Fang Linkong did not move from the room to the wilderness, the desert canyon. He just went from having his face facing the door to turning his face towards the window.

Even if it was transferred to the mouth of the monster, it would not surprise Fang Linkong more than this change. He thought about it for a while, but he didn't know what was going on.

"Shouldn't I have been moved to the zero-degree boiling point for the exam? How could it be that nothing has changed at all now? Could it be that this game console is a once-in-a-millennium flaw?"

Fang Linkong was wondering, but he heard an incomparably clear voice coming from the speakers in the room.

"Attention all candidates, you have arrived at the examination venue. It's safe in the castle, and it's your only place to resupply. You can now go hunt monsters in the wild. However, please note that the monsters here will really endanger your precious life, please pay attention to safety. If you feel that you are unable to complete the task, please apply to withdraw immediately. This exam allows you to form a team!"

When Fang Linkong heard this notice, he immediately jumped up, but his face immediately turned extremely pale.

Because he suddenly found that his body seemed to be firmly wrapped in a layer of mysterious power, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break through this strange confinement. Even none of his magic weapons could materialize from the inner universe into the real space. That is, he is now completely out of power.

"How so?"

Fang Lin thought about all the memories in his mind, but he couldn't give himself a satisfactory explanation, or use it to solve the problem.

Having become accustomed to power, losing it again made Fang Linkong feel an unprecedented panic. When he walked out of the room with patience in his anxiety, he found that the castle was already full of people.

Occasionally, there were candidates who were irritable and told others their feelings, and what made Fang Linkong feel a little better was that almost everyone found that they had lost the spiritual power they were proud of.

In the chaos, Fang Linkong didn't know where to go. Following most of the crowds, we came to the square in front of the castle.

There are more than a dozen stalls here, displaying all kinds of psionic weapons. There are already some candidates who are picking out weapons in front of the stalls.

Fang Linkong didn't know what to do, a person behind him pulled his shirt, Fang Linkong looked back, it turned out to be Lin Yu.

"Fang Linkong, why don't you join us in a group? I felt a little uneasy. I can't say what's going on. ”

Fang Linkong nodded slightly, but then he asked, "Everyone has lost their spiritual power, do you know what's going on, how can we kill demonic beasts like this? This ancient castle is really strange." ”

Ye Lisha, who was standing next to Lin Yu, said, "Fang Linkong, didn't you read the game instructions? Actually, the castle is the entrance here. Although this castle is the same as the original, you can see the outside of the castle......"

Fang Linkong heard Ye Lisha say this, and hurriedly climbed up to the outer wall of the nearest castle, and when he looked out, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

The scenery outside the castle has completely changed, and now the castle is located alone on a plain. The shadows of mountains and forests can be seen in the distance of the plains. Not far from the castle, a few groups of exotic animals roam leisurely.

Lin Yu, who ran up the city wall with Fang Linkong behind him, said breathlessly: "It's already zero degree boiling point here. We're going to live here for a while until we complete our mission, or we're disqualified. ”

Fang Linkong looked at the animals in the distance, with two heads, or the body of a deer and a wolf, and then looked at his palms, and said to Lin Yu without looking back: "Then why do we lose our strength? How can we kill the demonic beast and pass the exam without losing our strength?"

Lin Yu said angrily: "Fang Linkong, you are really careless, didn't you even read the game description carefully?"

Fang Lin spread his hands and said, "How did I know that this exam would be so perverted? I thought it would be very easy to complete, so I didn't look at that thing carefully. ”

Lin Yu patiently explained: "The zero boiling point is the place where the predecessors of the Demon Hunting Group practice retreat. Because of the peculiar nature of the space, everyone who enters here will lose their abilities. However, there is a lot of energy here, and it is easy to start from scratch. It's just that the abilities of the outside world can't be brought into this world, and all the substantive cultivation achievements in this world can't be brought into our real space. The predecessors of the Demon Hunting Regiment are not cultivating here to improve their strength, but to better understand how to communicate with the energy between heaven and earth. Let the spirit go to a higher level. We also have to start cultivating here from scratch until we have the ability to kill the five designated magical beasts before we can pass the exam. This process may go on for a long time, a year, or more!"

Hearing this, Fang Linkong asked, "Didn't you say that you could complete the exam in a few days? If we delay here for so long, what will we do with our life in the real world?"

Lin Yu finally began to sigh, and said to Lin Qiqi: "Classmate Fang Linkong, you really haven't seen anything! Time flows faster than reality here, about a year here, which is equivalent to a day in the outside world." And because of the difference in time and space, the years here have grown, and they can't be brought to reality. So you don't have to worry about growing old for a few years all of a sudden. ”

Fang Linkong finally began to smile bitterly, turned to Lin Yu dejectedly and said, "I knew it was so not fun, so I wouldn't have taken this hellish exam." I'm going to go crazy if I grind around here for a few years. ”

Lin Yu was amused by Fang Linkong's expression, took Fang Linkong's hand, and dragged him under the city wall.

"You'd better quickly choose your weapon and follow me to wander in the wild! Every time you kill an extra demonic beast here, you will absorb some of the demonic beast's energy, and if you want to quickly increase your strength, don't rub it in." ”

Being pulled by Lin Yu's warm little hand, Fang Linkong suddenly remembered that he didn't know what Ding Qingya was doing now. After not seeing her for a few days, Fang Linkong missed her a little bit. It's just that now by his side is Lin Yu, who looks like this big sister, instead of a gentle girl who is always a little bird.

The stalls in the square are prominently marked with the words "Only one weapon can be selected". And you can only access it with a candidate card. And if you are accustomed to using your own weapons, you have to go to a special booth to apply and wait for the test room staff to deliver the weapons that the candidates have surrendered. Lin Yu was not used to using these Western-style psionic weapons, so she had already applied to the examination room staff to take her saber and green silk back and use it. It is now awaiting the return of the weapon by the personnel in the examination room.

Fang Lin didn't have any special hobbies, and he didn't bother to go so troublesome to apply for a vampire's kiss back. His Warcraft Battle Armor Hundred Sea Dragon, because it exceeded the B-level weapon standard, it was impossible to get it back.

The only thing provided in the examination room is the knight's sword of the West, as well as the German-style military jungle field knife, the lowest-grade psionic firearms, magic staffs, bows and arrows, and mountain axes.

Although Fang Linkong lost his spiritual power, he cultivated the strength of the giant spirit transformation and exercised **, but he did not weaken because of this. He thought about it all along, although the mountain axe is majestic, it is really difficult to use, it is too clumsy. So he chose the thickest and strongest staff.

Western staffs are not the kind of magic wands reserved for magicians, but weapons such as clubs that are almost Chinese in China. It relies on blunt strikes to knock the opponent into a stun, or open the scoop with a cane.

Another reason why Fang Linkong chose the staff, firstly, there is a well-known monkey in China, so he loves to use this guy, and secondly, the traditional Chinese martial arts, Shaolin stick method is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Weapons like sticks are cooler than any other weapon.

Fang Linkong entered here, the detector was placed in the black wood ring and did not bring it, and the mobile phone had no signal. After looking for a long time, I didn't see Wen Yi and them, so I had to follow Lin Yu and Ye Lisha to go to the outside of the castle to adventure first.

"Why is this damn exam so troublesome? Isn't it easy to make?"

Fang Lin had countless grievances in his empty stomach, but he could only scold in his stomach, if he really said it, he couldn't afford to lose this person in front of the two girls.

At this time, hundreds of candidates had already rushed into the plain outside the ancient castle. A few seemingly stupid animals have been quickly killed. Although these candidates have lost their spiritual power, they usually exercise a lot, and there are not a few people who are as strong as bison. Pure brute force is also quite impressive.

Although Ye Lisha is not a skilled martial artist, she is not a weak girl. Out of the consideration of cooperation, Fang Linkong's staff was a powerful attacking melee weapon, and Lin Yu's long sword Qingsi was still a short weapon, so he asked Ye Lisha to take a psionic pistol. There is no aura here, of course, you can't compress the psionic bullets by yourself, but the students who choose the psionic pistol will be given a hundred psionic bullets here.

Fang Linkong and the others began to move slowly, so when the nearly two thousand candidates all poured out of the ancient castle, the nearby beasts had either run away or been slaughtered.

At Lin Yu's suggestion, the three of them began to march towards the distant forest.

Fang Lin resisted the staff with an empty shoulder, walking in the forefront. However, after they had been walking for three or four hours, Fang Linkong could no longer maintain his demeanor, and his hand carrying the staff became listless.

"It's really heavy and cumbersome. Besides, I shouldn't have chosen this, I knew I would have asked for the Black Wood Ring back. At least put this thing away!"

Fang Linkong complained to Lin Yu, and Lin Yu didn't know how to appease him. From the castle, the forest and mountains are not far away, but it is difficult to walk. There weren't many people around them anymore, and the candidates were starting to get scattered.

Fang Linkong, who looked bored, held the staff in his arm and flipped up the "Warcraft Illustrated Book". This strange space-time rift, after all, is not the real world, so there is no constant and inconvenient law of space. Sometimes, because of the dislocation of time and space, something that goes against common sense will happen. The demon hunters have been operating here for hundreds of years, and they have not yet figured out the laws of this space. Just a general knowledge of some taboos.

This Warcraft Illustrated Book gives a very detailed explanation of the location of each Warcraft, its caste, its ability, its approximate demon power value, and its life habits. Fang Linkong took a closer look and found that there were about more than thousands of demonic beasts here, and some of them were marked, only occasionally found, unnamed, and without recording detailed information.

The Monster Illustrated Book itself is a magical item, and the title page explains how to use it. As long as you see a monster that is not recorded, you can use this illustrated book to record it. Or fill in the missing Warcraft information in the illustrated book and modify some errors. will receive high bonuses and encouragement from the company that compiled the Warcraft Illustrated Book.

Fang Linkong's five kinds of demonic beasts in the exam questions, he didn't have the strength to capture them at the moment. However, he has always been skeptical of the idea that slashing other animals increases their strength. Therefore, along the way, I want to smash anything to death to test the truth with practice.

However, the candidates in front are fierce and tight, and they can't get any living creatures in the back to try their skills. Fang Linkong is quite patient, but the candidates behind him may not all have such humility, and from time to time there are groups of candidates who run quickly and surpass their team from behind.

Ye Lisha's surname is more calm, Fang Linkong's surname is more tired, and although Lin Yu is more lively, he has just lost his spiritual power and has become a little timid. The three of them all walked slowly all the way nonchalantly.

After more than an hour of boring walking, Fang Linkong could no longer see a single candidate beside them. Sparse tall trees had already appeared ahead, and they had begun to move into the jungle.

Fang Linkong, who was flipping through the Warcraft Illustrated Book, suddenly shouted in surprise.

"Something is wrong! Lin Yu! Ye Lisha! Have you noticed the map of this Warcraft Illustrated Book?"

Ye Lisha said lightly: "I have already noticed it. The map contains only about 400,000 square kilometers of detailed records, and the rest of the area is marked with danger. I don't even have a rough sketch. In other words, those places haven't even been explored by the Demon Hunter Headquarters!"

Lin Yu took Fang Lin's empty hand and glanced at the map on the illustrated book. Said strangely: "There are 400,000 square kilometers here! Our Kunlun headquarters, Kunlun Immortal Realm is only so big, if there is such a base as the Demon Hunting Group, wouldn't it be much stronger than the strength of our Kunlun Immortal Dao?"

Ye Lisha smiled bitterly: "Lin Yu! Do you know that our Kunlun Immortal Dao is no longer as good as others? The gap between the overly conservative policy and the land that regards opposing feudal superstition as a national policy and the West, which can publish magical novels at will, is widening in many places, rather than narrowing. ”

"Fang Linkong, you have also seen it, we Kunlun can't make such a big show to recruit Taoist priests. The title of demon hunter is like a turtle, even in China, it is a gifted gimmick from Kunlun!"

The topic of the trio, let's talk about it, has deviated from the single choice of how to pass the exam.

The woods have become denser and denser. Fang Linkong was about to talk to Lin Yu, but his heart was alert, and the long stick in his hand was easily pulled out, and a long shadow was jumped up by his stick. Fang Linkong's reaction was also extremely fast, and he pressed it against the big tree next to him, poof! A stream of plasma bubbled up, and a black strange snake with a huge single eye on its head had been squeezed by Fang Linkong's head.

Lin Yu was laughing because of Fang Linkong's joke at that time, and was frightened by this sudden change, and his nerve reflex generally drew out the long sword green silk. Seeing that Fang Linkong had already performed with a stick, he wiped the cold sweat that came out of his head, and said with palpitations: "This snake is too hidden, I didn't even see it just now." It's the first time I've seen a snake that has been eyeballed, Fang Linkong, what is this snake called in the Monster Illustrated Book?"

Fang Linkong silently sensed a strange fluctuation coming from the end of the stick, he did feel that after killing this strange snake, there was an extremely faint energy that emanated. And all he could accept was one percent. Lin Yu and Ye Li Sha are a little farther away, and may induce less energy. Fang Linkong suddenly had a strange thought, he could sense the existence of the inner universe, but he couldn't summon any magic weapon.

"I wonder if I can let the Nine Heavens Yuan Demon Spirit Flame absorb this energy?"

Fang Linkong slowly sent this trace of extremely fine energy into the inner universe. Sure enough, not only could his primordial power not be detected, but this energy also encountered a strange shield and could not be sent.

I tried several times, but it didn't work. Fang Linkong then extinguished his thoughts. He already had a general understanding: "This world and normal space, energy cannot contact each other, so this state appears. It's not that he has lost his spiritual power, it's just that his spiritual power can't be manifested here. In the same way, the energy here cannot be embodied in other worlds because of the difference in time and space!"

Lin Yu asked, and found that Fang Linkong seemed to be thinking about something, and ignored her. He reached out and patted Fang Linkong's shoulder, trying to regain his consciousness.

"Since this can't be done, why don't I change the way and temper this energy into the surname of the Nine Heavens Yuan Demon Spirit Flame?"

Fang Linkong thought of this before he had the strength to respond to Lin Yu and said, "Have you noticed that this strange snake is emitting some energy after it dies, and it seems to be able to absorb some of it!"

Lin Yu shrugged his shoulders and said no.

Ye Lisha frowned and said, "I have a little feeling, but it's too faint, I thought it was an illusion just now." Is this the way we can quickly develop the power that we can use in this world?"

Fang Linkong casually threw down the snake corpse and said, "That's about it. However, if we absorb the energy according to our respective minds, it may be more effective. ”

Although Lin Yu didn't feel anything, she believed that Fang Linkong and Ye Lisha would not lie to her.

The three of them knew that danger was everywhere in this forest. There was no longer the ease just now, and they all began to be on guard. Fang Linkong walked in front, and Lin Yu held the long sword and the green silk was broken. The more fragile leaf pear sand walks in the middle.

They didn't know that behind the trio, there was a pair of evil eyes staring at them fiercely!
