Chapter 1
The new zone "As if in Another World" in "Yuling" will be officially launched at 18:00 tonight. Please be prepared to enter the game.
A pleasant sound from the system came from the dedicated holographic cabin of "Yu Ling".
Mu He sat in the holographic cabin, and his bony fingers gently stroked the armrest of the special recliner. The familiar delicate touch made him sigh.
Half a year.
He promised never to play this game again, but after only half a year he couldn't help it anymore.
Before today, "Yu Ling" only had one old area called "Wind and Cloud Bending". Mu He had a full-level priest character in this old area and joined a professional team called "Frivolous".
Because of his extraordinary overall view and ability to control the game, his priest can always lead the team to victory in the game, and soon became the recognized "No. 1 Priest of Yuling" by "Yuling" players.
However, in the third "Yu Ling" professional challenge, his team suffered an upset defeat to an unknown grassroots team, causing an uproar.
In Mu He's opinion, they lost that game entirely because of the lack of coordination among their teammates, who were completely disorganized.
They underestimated the enemy.
But his teammates obviously don't think so:
"Is the pastor here today? Why did I die so many times?"
"Don't mention it, my blood has never been filled up!"
"Ha, so we have a chaplain on our team? I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it!"
Mu He wasn't one to swallow his anger, so he retorted immediately: "They're all rushing to die, that's pretty impressive. As expected, the worse the player, the louder they are."
At this moment, the captain Xiao Qingkuang said in a very joking tone: "You have a loud voice too."
This sentence directly led to Mu He's withdrawal from the entertainment industry.
He didn't care what others said, he just thought it was a dog barking, but he even laughed and said that!
At the beginning, he joined the team because of Xiao Qingkuang.
Really...
All my sincerity was wasted!
Mu He announced to the entire server that day - he would quit the holographic competitive circle and never play "Yu Ling" again!
However, half a year later...
"It's okay, flags are meant to be turned over."
Mu He calmly comforted himself, pressed the button at hand, and closed the door of the holographic cabin.
Since you can't let go of this game, just keep playing it. It's no big deal.
Anyway, only the game officials know his true identity, so he won’t be easily exposed.
But if he had to do it again, he would never play a priest again.
He'd seen too many other classes brag about how great they were after winning a teamfight, and then, when they lost, put all the blame on the priest: "It's all the priest's fault! If the priest had just given me a little more strength, I'd kill any god I met, and any Buddha I met!"
In this regard, Mu He only wanted to say one word - get out!
He glanced at the time displayed on the glass cover and felt it was about time, so he put on the helmet and closed his eyes: "Log in."
System: [Login request received, identity verification in progress - Identity verification successful, logging into the game - Login successful - Player Mu He, welcome to the world of Yuling, please select the server you wish to enter.]
System: [Detected that you have a level 99 Human Priest account in "Wind and Cloud Buff", ID: Murong He, may I ask if...]
"It feels like a lifetime ago." Mu He interrupted the system.
System: [Server "As if in another world" has been selected, character cannot be detected, would you like to create a new one?]
Mu He: “Yes.”
System: [Please select your occupation.]
Mu He looked at the ten professional images in front of him and immediately passed over the priest.
Then there are nine professions left...
Mu Yan's fingers traced over the nine figures for a long time, hesitating.
He wants to choose Rogue or Hunter.
In the game "Yu Ling", these two professions are set as "lone rangers" and can play on their own without teaming up with anyone.
But somehow, as his fingers were moving, they poked the swordsman.
He laughs frivolously and is a swordsman.
After Mu He retired from the circle, Xiao Qingkuang seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth and never appeared online again.
But even so, he is still recognized by "Yu Ling" players as "Yu Ling's No. 1 Swordsman".
Thinking of Xiao Qingkuang, Mu He was furious: "Why do you say I'm bad? Are you bullying me because I play a priest? I might be better at playing a swordsman than you!"
Hey, why doesn't he play a swordsman?
If he can play the role of "the best priest in controlling spirits", he might also be able to play the role of "the best swordsman in controlling spirits". Sooner or later, he will defeat that bastard Xiao Qingkuang!
Thinking of this, Mu He happily chose the swordsman.
System: [Please select your race.]
Remember that Xiao Qingkuang is a demon?
Mu He: "Demon tribe."
The human swordsman in white clothes, wearing golden armor, and shining with sunshine immediately transformed into a demon swordsman wearing a black robe, red and black armor, and enchanting patterns on his face.
System: [Please adjust your image.]
Mu He: "Automatically adjust, it's all done if it looks handsome."
The image in front of me automatically adjusted.
Mu He frowned and looked at him for a long time. He felt that he didn't become more handsome, but more evil and charming.
That's fine, as long as no one recognizes me.
Thinking of this, Mu He nodded: "Confirmed."
System: [Please name your character.]
Here it comes! The most difficult part is here!
Mu He was facing a powerful enemy: "Mumu."
System: [Sorry, this nickname is already taken. Please rename it.]
Mu He: "He He."
System: [Sorry, this nickname is already taken. Please rename it.]
Mu He: "The naming is useless."
System: [Sorry, this nickname is already taken. Please rename it.]
Mu He: "I'm bad at naming."
System: [Sorry, this nickname is already taken. Please rename it.]
Mu He: "Damn! Such a long name and no one uses it!"
System: [Please use civilized language and avoid using foul language.]
Mu He gave up on himself: "Mu He."
System: [Naming successful, character generation in progress.]
Mu He: ???
Mu He: "Wait! This name is not okay! I just made it up randomly!"
System: [Character generated, loading into the game - loading successfully - Swordsman Mu He, welcome to the world of Yuling, wish you a happy game!]
Mu He: "Rubbish system!"
System: [The system is a delicate flower, please take care of it.]
Before merging with the character and being born in the Novice Village, the only thing that made Mu He feel fortunate was that he didn't just go crazy and use his real name as his ID.
Although it’s almost there…
*
The player's birthplace is determined by race, and different races have different birthplaces.
Mu He is a swordsman from the demon clan, so he was born in the demon clan’s novice village - Youye Village.
The demon clan's territory is only night.
The purple night sky was bathed in cool moonlight, the blue grass swayed in the wind, and many blue dots of light floated in the sky, flickering now and then.
The whole environment gives people a dreamlike feeling.
Mu He stepped on the land and took a deep breath of the cool air around him. Although he had never been here before, he felt a strong sense of nostalgia at this moment.
I really want to say - I'm back.
However, before he could sigh for a moment, he noticed that there were more and more players around him...
"Depend on!"
Guessing what would happen next, Mu He rushed towards the village chief with an exclamation mark floating above his head as fast as he could.
Before reaching level 20, there are no dungeons to play, and if you want to level up quickly you can only complete tasks.
It is easy to accept tasks. When you are not in a team with others, the reaction of the task target is only visible to the player himself, so there is no need to queue up to accept tasks.
However, the number of targets required to be killed in the mission is limited.
In other words, players need to grab it.
Players who are not fast enough and not lucky enough may not be able to kill a monster for half a day and can only watch others kill monsters.
The first task Mu He received from the village chief was to kill 50 "troublemaking little demons".
"50, ha..." Mu He glanced at the empty Youye Village and didn't see even the shadow of a demon.
Suddenly, one appeared at 2 o'clock. As soon as it appeared, a bunch of messy skills flew over. The newly born little devil didn't even have the chance to open his eyes and look at the world. It turned into ashes in an instant.
"How terrible, how horrible." Mu He observed a second of silence for the little devil, and then continued to observe his surroundings.
5 seconds later, he refreshed one at 6 o'clock. 7 seconds later, one at 3 o'clock. 10 seconds later, one at 11 o'clock...
Just like that, Mu He stood there and observed patiently for more than ten minutes.
When other players saw him standing there motionless, they thought he was stuck.
However, just when everyone thought he would remain stuck like this, he moved.
At 2 o'clock, the sword came down with a raised hand: "One!"
He did two backflips in a row and reached the 6 o'clock position within 5 seconds. The sword flashed: "Two!"
Turning around and swinging the sword, at 3 o'clock: "Three!"
The poor little demons had just refreshed and were killed one after another by Mu He before more people noticed them.
After he killed three demons in a row, someone finally noticed his actions.
“This guy reacts so quickly!”
"No, why do I feel like he knows where the demons will spawn?"
As if to confirm what this player said, more and more people noticed that Mu He always rushed to the location where the little devil would appear before it refreshed, and then as soon as it appeared, he killed it with his quick eyes and hands, leaving no chance for other players to react!
So, for a long time afterwards, in the entire Youye Village, only Mu He's task progress bar was moving.
Finally, when he killed the 46th little devil, the players couldn't help it.
"Kill him!"
"We can't complete the mission without killing him!"
"Let's go together!"
System: [The demon assassin Dark Night has started a vendetta against you! ]
System: [The Demon Swordsman Yidaozhan has started a vendetta against you! ]
System: [The Demonic Mage's Enchanting Light has launched a vendetta against you!]
System: [The demon priest has started a vendetta against you for not helping the dying!]
Mu He: "...horrible, horrible, slip away."
