Chapter 326: Unable to Die
"anyone there!"
"Is there anyone outside?"
"Someone come and save me! Help me!"
"It would be nice if a villain came and killed me. I want to change the way I start the game!"
"Come here, whether you are a human or a ghost! I am afraid of being lonely! The rope is tied too tight!"
Long Aotian shouted until his voice became hoarse, but no one responded.
Not to mention people, even ghosts didn't come and small animals didn't come near here.
Long Aotian understood.
He must have offended his planner father at some point, otherwise how can he explain why he is so miserable every time he starts the game with a new expansion?
Except for the first expansion pack, he has never had a good start!
In the second piece of information, he was kept in a medical tube as a human test subject. In the third piece of information, he was captured and tortured by the people from Wanguimen. In the fourth piece of information, he was inexplicably tied to a statue of a god.
As for the fifth and sixth expansion packs... Long Aotian no longer dared to think about them.
"Planning dad! Just tell me the truth! How did I offend you?"
Long Aotian yelled and shouted, his tone was very sad: "Dad, if my son did something wrong in the past, can't I change it in the future?"
"I was wrong! Let me out!"
"Can I try to change the way I start? I regret this!"
No one paid any attention to Long Aotian. Only Long Aotian's voice echoed in the empty temple.
There was no one answering from outside the temple, and it looked like there were no signs of any biological activity nearby.
Of course, the spider that is climbing on Long Aotian's nose and trying to weave a web must be ruled out.
Of course Xu Xiaofan heard Long Aotian's call, because this was the player he was focusing on observing, the Son of Death!
God is my witness, Xu Xiaofan really did not do anything behind the scenes.
All of this is randomly arranged by the divine system. Within the scope of Xu Xiaofan's control, he tries his best to arrange suitable and relatively powerful NPC characters for the soul-crossing players.
But this does not include the fact that the divine system also has to take into account the surrounding situations of the players at the start of the game. As long as the selected NPC is not in a situation where death is inevitable, the divine system will determine that it meets the players' soul transmigration standards.
Long Aotian's luck is always good at the beginning, and he always encounters some strange things.
This made Xu Xiaofan very surprised: "Is this guy born to be the protagonist of a cool novel?"
First suppress and then praise.
It was suppressed at the beginning, and then soared into the sky.
A typical protagonist's fate!
…
"call!"
Long Aotian blew away the spider on his nose, his expression looking particularly sad.
He had been yelling for half an hour and his voice was almost hoarse, but he didn't see a single ghost. It was obvious that this was a deserted place.
Long Aotian felt that he might have to be tied up like this forever.
Long Aotian wanted to struggle and tried to struggle.
But the rope that bound him was a little strange. There was a green light flashing on the rope. The more Long Aotian struggled, the tighter it was tied. He simply couldn't break free by his own efforts.
"Forget it, it's fine to just tie it like this."
Long Aotian accepted his fate and comforted himself: "Just bear with it. I will die of thirst and hunger in a few days, and then I can start over."
Even if he delayed a few days of precious start time, there was nothing he could do. It was just his bad luck that he would be treated inhumanely every time he started.
"I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well take a look at the attributes of my soul-transmigrating character."
Long Aotian silently recited the divine system in his mind and opened the attribute panel of the game character.

…
"Tsk, this attribute is really great!"
After seeing the attributes of the soul-crossing character, Long Aotian couldn't help but be amazed : "This is much stronger than the beginning of a mortal. The beginning is the foundation-building great perfection!"
"The average of the four major attributes exceeds 150 points, and he has mastered five skills! It also comes with a magic weapon for the start!"
"There is also a mid-level character personality and an advanced talent. This advanced talent should be the original cultivation physique of this NPC, right? A genius-level physique! Destined to become a powerful cultivator!"
Long Aotian felt very happy and felt that he had found a treasure.
However, this body is in a seriously injured state, the spiritual energy in the body has dried up, the body is weak, and the four major attributes have been reduced by more than half.
"If someone could rescue me and heal me, wouldn't I be the top player in the fourth expansion pack?"
I have to say that Long Aotian has a very optimistic personality.
But he soon realized a serious problem.
"I am in the foundation-building stage now?"
"I was thinking that it shouldn't be that easy for a Foundation Establishment Stage person to die of thirst or starvation, right? Has he already gone through the fasting phase and doesn't need to eat?"
"If that's the case, wouldn't it mean I'm...hiss!"
Long Aotian's eyes widened: "If no one comes to save me, I will be tied up like this for several years and won't die?"
"It's over!"
Long Aotian didn't dare to think any further. It would be too much torture to be tied up like this forever. What kind of game would it be?
"No, no, we have to think of a solution quickly!"
"Calm down! I need to calm down!"
Long Aotian tried hard to calm down and began to recall the memories and soul information of the character he had traveled through, trying to find out why he was tied here and how to break the deadlock and leave.
This character who has traveled through time and space is, after all, a cultivator. It's not like he doesn't have any means of turning the situation around!
Long Aotian gradually fell into the memory of soul information and gradually understood the background of this game character.
…
Nameless valley.
A large number of players who chose to start as mortals appeared here one after another. From time to time, a breeze blew through the tree-lined valley, bringing with it the faint scent of green grass, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
Xu Ercong looked out at the entire valley and began to settle the players.
This valley is very large and covers a vast area. The area inside the valley is like a large plain, enough to accommodate players who explore the new expansion pack in the early stages of the game.
"Everyone should know how to play the New World, and also know the two different ways to start the game!"
"Although we start as mortals, we have the advantage of freedom. We retain the rights of players to revive and restart infinitely. I personally think that our start is still very good."
"I know that everyone wants to become an immortal cultivator and fly between heaven and earth on a sword, but this cannot be rushed!"
"Considering the hardcore game style of Death God Calamity, what we need to consider most now is not how to enter the world of immortal cultivation, but food, clothing, housing and transportation!"
Xu Ercong had already considered what might happen at the beginning. In order to ensure that he could unite and command more players, although he wanted to choose the soul-transmigrating character method, he finally chose to start as a mortal.
Because players who start as mortals will appear in a fixed location, just like the Northern Forest in the first expansion pack.
This will make it easier for Xu Ercong to unite the players around him and take advantage of the fact that there is strength in numbers.
Xu Ercong, who has experienced several expansion packs, is more recognized by the players, and everyone is willing to follow Xu Ercong's arrangements.
It is always better to hang out with a group of big guys than to fight alone.
After all, Death Note is not a simple game. This game is so hardcore that it is much more difficult to play alone.
Especially in the advanced world expansion pack, the difficulty for players to play the advanced expansion pack alone can be described as self-abuse level.
"Now, managers of each club can redeem some props suitable for our current use through the points mall!"
"Food, supplies, and accommodation, try to meet the needs of each player's game character, but also save points!"
"Individual players can form teams and discuss the allocation and use of points! But I hope everyone will not quarrel, keep secrets, and help and contribute together!"
"Have you seen the [Novice Starter Set] in the Points Mall? This is a new item that only costs 100 points. It contains a primary weapon, two sets of armor, simple clothing, a month's worth of highly compressed food, and some simple medicines."
"If you spend 50 more points, you can buy the [Enhanced Novice Set], which gives you an extra ready-made novice living room and three full status pills."
"This valley can be used as our base temporarily. Let's build our gaming nest first, and then explore outside to seek immortal fate!"
After Xu Ercong arranged the initial formations, the players began to take action to build their own valley homes.
Of course, at least half of the players chose not to follow Xu Ercong's arrangements. They formed their own teams, left the valley, and couldn't wait to explore outside.
For this type of players, Xu Ercong does not force them to stay.
It would be better for them to leave the valley early, so that they can bring out some information outside the valley to help the players in the valley prepare for the response.
Even if only half of the players are left, there are still a lot of them, and they are still increasing.
At first glance, it looks densely packed and dark, as if they are hardworking ants constantly cutting down the surrounding trees to expand the area of the valley.
Xu Ercong summoned the top executives and bosses from all the major clubs and began to discuss the next game development plan. At the same time, he took a headcount to see who had chosen the soul-crossing start method so that they could contact each other privately and exchange information.
"Hey, where's Long Aotian?"
Xu Ercong took a look and found that a lot of people were missing from the team. Long Aotian was not there either. He might have chosen to start the game with his soul traveling through time and space.
Xu Ercong asked everyone to start the discussion immediately. He opened the contacts, found Long Aotian, and sent a private message.
Xu Ercong: "Aotian, did you choose to start with soul-crossing?"
Long Aotian: “Yes.”
Xu Ercong: "I also want to choose the soul-crossing start. I really envy you. Have you become a disciple of a cultivation sect? How do you feel now?"
Long Aotian: "I feel like dying now, but I can't. I am seriously considering whether I should try biting my tongue to commit suicide."
Xu Ercong: “???”.
What happened to my brother Long? When his soul started out, he had a ready-made template for a cultivator character, which put him so far ahead of a mortal. Why did he suddenly become so upset?
Xu Ercong was very confused and couldn't figure it out.
