Chapter 263: The Eve and Day of War
After the little octopus announced that everyone should work together to rescue Wei Jingjing, the players' emotions immediately became high.
"How should we save her?" Cui Mingzhi asked.
The little octopus scanned the players in front of it. "Wei Jingjing has now transformed into an irrational monster. She is the one who built this world. In this game, we cannot defeat her."
"Then how can we save her?"
"Based on the current situation, I can only tell you that going to look for her now is tantamount to committing suicide. Fortunately, we are not without a chance. Today is the evening of the 54th day. In six days, on the 61st day, she will be at her weakest. That will be our chance."
"6 days later..." Wei Hongzhuo murmured.
Ren Anzhi raised his hand: "Can't we take the initiative to attack in these six days?"
"No." The little octopus said, "Wei Jingjing is not rational at all now. If you take the initiative to attack, you will only lose your life in vain. And I am not sure whether death in this game will affect your real body. Under this risk, we can only accumulate strength and fight to the death when she is at her weakest."
"Can Jingjing be rescued on the 61st day?" Sheng Shihua asked.
The little octopus didn't answer directly. It looked at everyone and said, "Before the final contact with Jing Jing on the 61st day, we need to make various preparations within these six days. The most important thing is - upgrade!"
Cui Mingzhi jumped up, "Great! Finally we are back to the normal game routine!!"
Sheng Shihua glanced at Wei Hongzhuo and said quietly, "Go to the training ground. I will help you level up quickly."
Wei Hongzhuo suddenly felt a chill on his back.
…
…
Day fifty-fifth.
King Liu Xingquan opened up a venue for his companions to level up.
The Octopus leader announced that these heroes were going to defeat the devil, rescue the princess and save the world. With the national strength as a backing, the heroes received full support from the whole country. The equipment and consumption of the players were no longer a problem. All the heroes got the equipment and weapons with the best attributes according to their professions. There were as many potions as needed to enhance basic attributes. Every day in the training ground, there were special trainers to provide all-round hellish guidance and training for the players.
Whether playing mobile games or online games, Cui Mingzhi is very familiar with this kind of leveling up. In addition, with the premise of saving Wei Jingjing, he has no complaints about this boring leveling up exercise.
That night, when Cui Mingzhi walked out of the training ground tiredly, he saw Wei Hongzhuo falling to the ground in slow motion, and Sheng Shihua appeared behind him with an expressionless face. Sheng Shihua put the battle axe on his shoulder and turned away in a dashing manner.
Cui Mingzhi walked up to Wei Hongzhuo and asked, "Uncle, are you still alive?"
"..." Wei Hongzhuo slowly moved his eyes, "Alive."
"Wow, Uncle Wei, you're already level 18!!"
"Um."
Cui Mingzhi squatted down and sat beside him. "I am also level 18. " He said with a smile, "Although it is a bit tiring, my level has finally been raised."
Wei Hongzhuo didn't say anything, he just stared at the sky in silence. Cui Mingzhi also looked up, and the dark blue velvet sky was already dotted with stars, shining brightly. He then remembered that since he entered this game world, he was first in prison, and then on the road to the capital, and he had never really looked up to appreciate the night scenery of this game world.
What a beautiful night, he thought.
"Do you feel happy after leveling up?" Wei Hongzhuo said.
"Um."
"The game's upgrade mechanism is essentially a reward mechanism. Increasing the level will stimulate the dopamine in your brain, making you look forward to the next level, thus achieving psychological addiction..."
"Uncle Wei, it's meaningless if you say that."
"Haha, I know." Wei Hongzhuo was silent again. After a while, he said, "Cui Mingzhi, Xiao Cui."
"Um?"
"I'm sorry I ruined your gaming experience."
"Huh? No." Cui Mingzhi was startled. He glanced at Wei Hongzhuo's expression and said, "Ah, are you referring to the fifty-day jail sentence? Yan Zhen said that this is the game system messing with us."
"No." Wei Hongzhuo said in a low voice, "From the cause, it's my fault."
"Uncle Wei, it really doesn't matter. Look, Gin doesn't care either."
"Xiao Cui, I was once your age, and I know how interesting and precious this experience is for you. I ruined your gaming experience. You should have had a better adventure, a memory you will often reminisce about when you become an adult."
"Uncle Wei, it's really okay." Cui Mingzhi said, "Besides, in five days, we will go to rescue classmate Wei Jingjing. We are not here to play."
Hearing Jingjing's name, Wei Hongzhuo's eyes stared at the northwest . Cui Mingzhi knew that was the direction of the Lion Fang Fort where Wei Jingjing was.
"I'm a very bad father." Wei Hongzhuo said, and then he stopped talking and just silently looked towards Lion's Tooth Castle.
"Uncle Wei, you still refused to give up on Wei Jingjing even though she had become like that. And you saved me." Cui Mingzhi lowered his head and said, "I think that's great. Besides, there aren't many adults who are willing to apologize to the younger generation."
"In the game, only this once."
Cui Mingzhi stood up and shouted, "Uncle Wei, we will definitely rescue Wei Jingjing!" He shouted to the Lion Fang Castle, "Student Wei Jingjing, wait for us!! We will definitely save you!!"
…
…
Day fifty-seven.
Wei Hongzhuo appeared in Xiaozhen's room.
"Yan Zhen." Wei Hongzhuo said thoughtfully, "Xiao Zhen, I'll still call you that."
"It's all right, Uncle Wei."
"Xiao Zhen, you young people always know more about games than we do. Although I was also crazy about games when I was your age, when you become an adult, you may not be so enthusiastic about games, I mean these things you like, and you may even have the mentality that these are things for children to play. Uh, what I mean, can you understand?"
"Yes, I'm listening, Uncle Wei."
"Once he has this mentality, his vision will become very narrow, and he will not be willing to put down his attitude to understand. Uncle made this mistake after entering this world, he was very self-righteous and self-righteous. But now uncle does not want to make such a mistake again, Xiaozhen." Wei Hongzhuo's eyes were fixed on him, "I know too little about Jingjing, and I know too little about what young people are thinking nowadays. Xiaozhen, since I was brought here by your aunt Sheng, I found that you are the actual leader here, and you see much more than we see. I still know very little about this game world, so, Xiaozhen, how to save Jingjing, and what I should do, you must tell me."
"Um."
"Xiao Zhen, I saw Jing Jing turned into that monster. I really don't know how to describe it." Wei Hongzhuo clenched his fists and whispered, "Can we save Jing Jing?"
“We will do our best.”
"Can you just tell us if we can save Jingjing?"
“…”
Wei Hongzhuo's voice trembled slightly, "You can't confirm it?"
"Uncle, I can only say that we will try our best."
"I want to hear you say that she will definitely come back." Wei Hongzhuo said anxiously, "She will definitely come back, right?"
Xiaozhen remained silent.
"She may not be able to be saved, and she may even die."
Xiaozhen looked away.
Wei Hongzhuo clenched his fists and paced back and forth, "So we can't be sure to save her. Oh, God..."
He felt footsteps and looked up. Sheng Shihua was turning around at the door. She didn't look at them and left in a hurry.
She just heard it.
Shihua, we might lose her. Wei Hongzhuo watched her retreating figure.
We might lose her.
Losing our daughter.
…
…
Sixty-first day.
Everyone is ready to go.
Except for Sheng Shihua who has reached the top level of 95, everyone's level has been completely renewed after just six days of hard leveling. Granny Lin (Mage) is currently level 90, Cui Mingzhi (Rogue) is now level 76, Wei Hongzhuo (Priest) is level 77, Ren Anzhi (Knight) is level 75, Liu Xingquan (Hunter) is level 82, Gin and Little Octopus do not have an upgrade mode, and the experience upgrade mode of the Mushroom Elf is different from that of the heroes. It will no longer upgrade after reaching level 5, and it does not have any attack mode, so the latter three are not formal combat members.
Everyone wore the best professional equipment they could find in the country. Sheng Shihua wore the silver armor she had always wanted, and her battle axe was faintly shining with flames. The staff in Grandma Lin's hand was flowing with a blue-purple magic aura. Wei Hongzhuo wore the best enchanted leather armor and held a hammer in his hand. Cui Mingzhi's outfit met the definition of a thief, low-key and dangerous, and his parcel box was filled with hidden weapons picked from the armory. And Ren Anzhi, Ren Anzhi even had a beautiful white horse.
"Why does he have a horse!!" Choi Ming-chi said, looking at the horse.
"Because he's Prince Charming." said Gin.
Wei Hongzhuo stared at Ma and Ren Anzhi for a while, and this time he didn't say anything.
Before the departure, the little octopus gave the team another surprise. In these six days, it and Liu Xingquan spent a lot of money to explore the holy sword of Prince Ren Anzhi. Now the hard work has paid off, and the holy sword has finally been found under the call of money.
Ren Anzhi happily took the holy sword, which shone with a hazy and sacred white light in his hand. "Victory belongs to us! Rescue the princess!" Ren Anzhi shouted while holding the holy sword high.
The guards followed and shouted: Victory belongs to us! For our king, for our prince! !
Cui Mingzhi whispered to Liu Xingquan and Xiaozhen, "It seems like he is the protagonist. He didn't do anything but was given the 999 Dragon Slaying Sword."
"I don't know if it will work, but the prince has this plan, so we should give him what he deserves." Xiao Zhen said, "After all, we are fighting the final battle."
In addition to the holy sword, the little octopus took out another surprise. It took out a box of P90 bullets.
"There are bullets in this world?" Wei Hongzhuo was surprised.
"Because I heard about this from Choi Ming-chi, I asked the best craftsman to dismantle the gun and make a batch of bullets according to the structure." Xiao Zhen said, "Even though he is the best craftsman, he can only make this much at short notice. Uncle, you have to make do with it."
Wei Hongzhuo had an expression on his face that this was too ridiculous.
"This is a magical world after all," said Xiao Zhen.
Wei Hongzhuo put the bullets into the equipment column with a serious face. He nodded. Now, he will become a true combat priest.
Then they rushed to Lion's Tooth Castle.
Go there and save Wei Jingjing who has turned into a monster.
The girl was waiting for them.
…
…
Unlike the last time, as soon as they knocked on the gate, hundreds of night demons rushed towards them.
Everyone immediately entered combat mode.
"It's not night now, why is there a night demon?" Liu Xingquan shouted.
Xiao Zhen said: "Because the Night Demon is Wei Jingjing's nightmare, and now is her weakest time, these nightmares are gathered here. Everyone, go! Rush in!!"
Sheng Shihua jumped into the group of night demons, her battle axe flying up and down, the red whirlwind was like a dance of death. Granny Lin held up her staff and chanted something, lightning flashed among the night demons, the pungent smell of burning and the screams of the night demons came one after another.
Cui Mingzhi finally had a chance to show off his skills. He moved among the Night Demons like a ghost, flashing shadows and white light from time to time, giving the enemy a fatal blow. Wei Hongzhuo raised his gun and fired at the Night Demons at high speed. The little octopus lay on Liu Xingquan's shoulder, commanding the elite guards who followed him.
There were too many Night Demons, and these guards were able to disperse the enemy's firepower very well. Liu Xingquan kept shooting arrows, and the magic arrows hissed in the air, igniting and tearing the Night Demons apart.
"Look, is that Wei Jingjing? Oh my God, has she become like this?" Cui Mingzhi shouted.
Sheng Shihua remembered what Wei Jingjing looked like the last time she saw him.
The last monster we saw was in layers of black fog.
Now, she couldn't see the monster's original form at all. The black fog, the diffuse black fog, condensed into a huge black shadow, covering the ground in shadow. Its blurry body was twisting and changing, and people could vaguely hear the screams and roars coming from the black fog.
The guards began to feel uneasy. This huge and strange existence was beyond their understanding, and panic was spreading.
At this moment, a voice echoed in the crowd, "Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!" Ren Anzhi was like a truly shining prince, riding on a horse with the holy sword shining in his hand, "Victory will surely belong to us!"
He swung the holy sword at the spreading black fog.
The moment the holy sword touched the black fog, the black fog suddenly dissipated.
"Damn, this holy sword is actually useful." Cui Mingzhi said.
"It seems that he really is Wei Jingjing's Prince Charming." Gin, who was following behind Cui Mingzhi, said.
"I understand." Ren Anzhi also noticed this vision, "This is my dream, and I will save Mr. Wei's daughter here!"
"Boss Wei, let me repay your kindness now!"
He raised the holy sword and drove his horse towards the huge black shadow giant. The hazy holy light enveloped Ren Anzhi, and he rushed forward like a savior hero in a picture album.
Then, the black fog suddenly condensed into a giant hand and waved at Ren Anzhi's white horse. The horse screamed and raised its two hooves, and Ren Anzhi fell sideways. Everyone watched his body hanging on the other side of the horse, the holy sword flew to the outer ring flowerbed of the square, and the horse dragged Ren Anzhi towards the gate.
Cui Mingzhi: “…”
Gin said, "I'll go save him."
"Well, let's continue fighting." said the little octopus.
