Chapter 20 - No escape in Jay
Leaving the dueling hall, Xuelang started searching all over the city overnight to find friends who would log in and play cards together.
Because it was a quest issued by an NPC, the other party’s intention was definitely not to let him grab a random passerby on the street to make up the number, but to ask him to pull other players to use the team function to find him together.
However, this is not easy.
As I said before, the total number of players in the beta test is only three digits, so the chance of throwing so many people into Tongye Real City at random is not very high.
Xuelang has been wandering around and hasn’t encountered a single other player yet.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the noisy neighborhood gradually quieted down. There are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road, and most of the local NPCs have gone home to sleep.
So there are only a few types of people left on the streets of Tongyeshi City, drunks, gangsters, people with ulterior motives… and gamers.
Yes, of course, players do not need to sleep in the game, and players who log in for the first time have no place to rest in this world.
So in the middle of the night, players either log out, or stay in a dueling hall (the dueling halls are open all night), or they can only roam the streets.
In this way, the probability of wanting to meet other players will be slightly higher.
No, Xuelang wandered around in the middle of the night, and finally found a companion with the same ID on his head as him.
Xuelang rushed up to take a look, only to see that the name on the man’s head was “blame my chest for being too small”.
Wow, she’s still a girl, so lucky!
Xuelang hurried up and excitedly ran up: “Wow, is that Miss Sister?”
The girl turned her head, she had long hair, big eyes, and she was very cute.
“Are you a player?”
“Yes, yes, after wandering around for a long time, I finally met other people, so I thought I was playing a single player.”
“Haha, yes, after all, there are few people now.” The girl smiled.
“Then do we want to play together? I just received a mission…”
At this moment, a rough male voice interjected: “What’s the matter, what’s the matter?”
Xuelang followed the sound and found that a certain male player appeared from behind the corner.
The ID on this player’s head is “blame me for not rubbing too much”.
Xuelang: “…”
Gan!
It turns out that the special cat is a couple dog!
The girl turned her head and explained, “Oh, that’s right, this brother…”
“…Just passing by.” Xuelang snorted and waved at them, “Ha, then you guys play slowly, I’ll go first if I still have a task!”
After speaking, he quickly drove away without waiting for the two to reply.
Just kidding, why should labor and capital be shown their faces when they play a game?
Don’t you deserve to be single even to play games?
Xuelang continued to move forward angrily.
The street lights also went out one after another, and fewer and fewer lights were on in the urban area, and the streets gradually fell into darkness.
Xuelang couldn’t help shivering. He couldn’t help being surprised by the authenticity of the game again. He even restored the uncomfortable feeling of walking in the city at night. It was really realistic and incredible.
After wandering around the city for an unknown amount of time, he finally met his next companion.
This time I met a male player. The character pinched by the other party has a round face, a round head that is infinitely close to a bald head, a pair of black-framed mirrors on the bridge of the nose, and a strong physique.
Xue Lang fixedly looked at the ID on the other side’s head, it seemed to say… “Zai Jie can’t escape”?
Even the word for robbery, which is doomed, is spelled wrong. It’s scary to have no culture. Xuelang thought.
But it doesn’t matter.
Xuelang quickly stepped forward to greet him warmly: “Brother, are you interested in doing tasks together?”
The player turned around and said, “Ah? What mission?”
“It was released by a special NPC, which seems to be a chain of quests.” Xue Lang said, “He asked me to find other players to form a team, and go find him together at dawn.”
“Oh? Chain missions?” Jie’s eyes lit up behind the lens.
The quests that the novice stage can receive are actually very limited. At present, the best way to level up seems to be to play cards with people in the dueling arena. Playing a lot of cards makes it easier to receive other tasks when the level is slightly higher.
It’s really rare to be able to hit a chain mission at this stage.
Zaijie couldn’t escape and came up and said, “What is the reward for the mission, can I stay healthy?”
“My last mission asked me to hand him a fusion magic card, which I redeemed with a novice ticket. The reward gave me hundreds of experience points.”
Zai Jie was stunned for a moment. Although he didn’t speak, the expression on his face was clearly—this is it?
Fusion by exchanging a novice card coupon for a few hundred experience points?
Why do you think this NPC is a pit…
Zai Jie coughed and patted his shoulder: “Brother, I think there may be something wrong with this NPC. You may not know much about playing games. Some game planners just like bad fun, so I will arrange some tasks for you to complete. Complicated, rewarding, and useless NPCs…”
“But that NPC’s name is You Yu.” Xue Lang said, “And the decks use elemental heroes.”
“Hey, you have nothing to do with you… Wait a minute, what did you say he used!?” Jae Jie’s eyes lit up, and a tactical push-glass frame came hurriedly, his face was full of writing thirsty.
“Uh… the elemental hero used.” Xuelang said, “I saw him summon the ‘Elemental Hero Nova Lord’ with my own eyes, a fusion monster that has never appeared in the animation.”
“Hidden plot, definitely hidden plot!” Zai Jie was excited, “and there is a high probability that the hidden plot is related to the plot development of GX in the later stage of the game!”
He patted Xuelang meaningfully on the shoulder, staring at him with burning eyes behind his glasses: “This is what I owe you, everyone will be brothers from now on, feel free to say anything if you need help! I can help me. Do your best to help.”
“No problem, Brother Zaijie!”
“It’s too ugly to be called like that.” Zai Jie waved his hand, “Just call me Brother Jie.”
“Okay, Brother Jie!”
He seems to be a good buddy who attaches great importance to friendship, and the people at UU reading www.uukanshu.com are quite good. Xuelang thought.
The first person in Link World met such a good friend, Xue Lang felt that his duelist career had a bright future.
……
The next morning.
You Yu got up very early today, and before dawn, he came downstairs yawning.
But he didn’t expect that even if he got up so early, when he got down, he could still hear Ito China busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
It seems to be like this every day since he came to this store – no matter how early he gets up, China will always be up. Often when he came out of the bathroom after washing, the steaming breakfast was already on the table.
He couldn’t help but wonder if Qiannai was actually a robot, the kind who didn’t need to sleep at night.
After washing up and coming to the table, You Yu immediately started to eat today’s breakfast, and kept looking out the window at the same time.
Although the time he set yesterday was seven o’clock in the morning and it hasn’t arrived yet, it cannot be ruled out that Xuelang will actively come to hand in the task ahead of time.
I don’t know what kind of player Xuelang can bring him.
“Waiting for someone today?” Qianna quickly noticed his abnormality.
“Well, that’s right.” You Yu nodded.
Sure enough, it was just after 6:30 when Xuelang excitedly appeared outside the store and brought a new player as agreed.
You Yu glanced at the new player through the window, and felt that the other player pinched this round face, this round hairstyle, these black-rimmed glasses, and even that vivid and wretched expression…whatever. Like where have you seen it?
Then he noticed the ID on the other side’s head…
… Zai Jie can’t escape? ? ?
