Chapter 6 The Desperate Xu Ercong
Wang Dali was very annoyed. He had already smoked half a pack of cigarettes.
None of his bad friends showed up; they all stayed in the game.
"Alas, I don't know what level they have reached."
Wang Dali cannot enter the game yet, and the resurrection cooldown time is still passing by every second.
"Ten minutes left..."
The deep voice echoed in the room.
You taste it, you taste it carefully.
The voice was hoarse and low, full of the desire and resentment unique to men, as if something he longed for but could not obtain was right in front of him, within his reach.
"Five more minutes!"
The hoarse male voice became higher.
"Okay, you can enter the game now!"
Wang Dali instantly put out the cigarette in his hand, then rolled over, picked up the helmet and put it on his head.
Click on the [Death Scourge] game icon.
Game loading.
"You bunch of idiots, why don't you wait for me? I, Wang Dali, am back again!"
As Wang Dali vented his excitement, his consciousness sank and he entered the game.
"Sure, this guy is really timely. He entered the game right after the cooldown period."
Xu Xiaofan was very happy when he noticed Wang Dali's positive attitude.
This shows that his plan was successful and players like the real game park he created.
[Dear player, you have passed the resurrection cooldown period, do you want to resurrect now? ]
"Yes, I want to be resurrected now!"
Wang Dali’s eyes went dark and he appeared in the square of the Novice Village of the Kingdom of God.
Before Wang Dali had time to look around, he received several reminders from the divine consciousness.
[Dear player, you have successfully invited four players to join the game, and you have received a lifespan bonus of 0.4 days. ]
"It doesn't look like that many. I have to keep working hard to attract more people to join the game."
Wang Dali was thinking, he didn't know how long a monster's life span would be after killing it, and he didn't know if it would be enough to level up. Which one would be faster to level up, or killing people?
Wang Dali closed the prompt box and saw a group of skeletons lying near the fountain in the square.
Wang Dali walked closer and saw that there were several skulls with the names of his bad friends on them.
"Oh, Dali is resurrected."
"Come on, come on, let's form a team."
Wang Dali agreed to the team invitation sent by his friend, and then asked: "Why are you guys lying here? Have you been baptized? Have you gone to the dungeon..."
Before Wang Dali finished speaking, he discovered something was wrong.
"Fuck, Ercong, how come you're level 2! No, how come you're all level 2!"
"Ha ha."
Xu Ercong laughed and said proudly: "We have already completed the baptism and returned from the dungeon."
Bai Mengmeng covered her mouth and laughed: "We killed several rabbits, the kind of cute little white rabbits that can kill you in seconds."
"You bastards, why didn't you wait for me?"
Wang Dali had a sad face. He still wanted to be the best player in the game, but now it seemed that he had fallen behind in level.
"Who told you to be resurrected?"
Li Tiangou was lying on the ground, looking at the clouds in the sky contentedly, enjoying the new real world. "It's a pity that the blood medicine in the store is too expensive. We can't bear to buy it. We can only go back to the Novice Village and wait for the automatic blood recovery."
Wang Dali asked: "Why don't you wait in the dungeon? It will be so troublesome to go back and forth."
Chen Danshen replied, "Ercong discovered a detail. The speed of blood recovery in the dungeon is very slow, while the speed of automatic blood recovery in the Novice Village of the Kingdom of God is several times faster."
This was actually not a detail that Xu Xiaofan deliberately set.
The so-called automatic blood recovery is just because the undead bodies of the believers have the aura of the undead, which has a certain self-healing effect. Xu Xiaofan used divine power to enhance this recovery effect, so there is a setting of slow self-healing.
The reason why the recovery speed in the realm of the God of Death is faster than in the other world is because this group of players are all believers of the God of Death. They are favored by the deity in the realm of the God of Death and can use the breath of the undead that is everywhere in the realm of the God of Death to recover from their injuries faster.
"Hurry up, don't lie on the ground anymore. I think your health bars are almost recovered."
Wang Dali couldn't wait any longer: "Hurry up and take me to level up! We are all brothers, you are all level 2, and I am the only level 1."
"Okay, okay, let's go."
Xu Ercong patted his butt and stood up from the ground.
"Let's go, the second expedition begins!"
"By the way, how many rabbits can I kill to level up?"
"Da Li doesn't know yet. He can level up by killing two people, but he doesn't know how much experience is needed to reach level three. We all take turns to finish off the enemy."
"First bring Dali to level 2, then everyone can take turns to reach level 3."
"All night long, I'm going to level up all night long today!"
"+1"
"+2"
"+10086"
…
Everyone returned to the copy. It was still the familiar place and the same familiar rabbits.
After several rounds of cooperation, the five people were able to kill rabbits in groups, which accelerated the efficiency of upgrading.
The four people were divided into two groups, and Wang Dali was randomly thrown into one group to gain experience. After all, he was just a novice to the other four.
This made Wang Dali, who was the first to enter the game, very hurt. He didn't expect that he was the first to enter the game, but in the end he became a newbie who needed a big guy to lead the way.
Three hours passed.
Everyone's level has been raised to level three, and everyone has some life savings in their pockets.
Xu Ercong asked: "Are you tired?"
Bai Mengmeng: "Not tired."
Chen Danshen: "I want to fight with those little white rabbits for another 300 rounds! Whoever backs down is a grandson!"
Li Tiangou: "Why are there no monsters other than the little white rabbit? They are all rabbits. I am about to vomit after chopping them so hard."
Xu Xiaofan, who was observing secretly, couldn't help but cover his forehead.
I am doing this for your own good. I purposely placed the location for the crossing to the other world in a place where there are only the lowest level monsters.
If you encounter powerful monsters and enemies from the other world, you four will be no match for them and will be destroyed in seconds.
"Everyone, take a break. Go back and recover your health first, and then continue the fight later."
"Okay, I'll listen to Ercong."
"Let's go."
Although everyone was very careful to deal with the little white rabbit, most of them were hit by the ice arrows and suffered some injuries. In addition, they encountered some bumps and bruises in the wild, and their health bars were basically at the bottom. It was not suitable to continue fighting in the dungeon.
"Everyone, be careful and don't die. After all, the resurrection time is only one hour..."
Xu Ercong was suddenly stunned when he said this. He glanced at Wang Dali and asked, "Brother, after you were resurrected, was your health bar full? Did your level drop?"
"My level hasn't been lowered. I'm only level 1, how can it be lowered?"
Wang Dali glanced at Xu Ercong in confusion and said, "He just resurrected, so his health bar must be full."
"Ercong, what have you thought of now?"
"I was wondering if we could commit suicide..."
Xu Ercong's voice was very low: "Just think about it, it takes more than two hours to go back and forth from here to the Novice Village of the Kingdom of God. Even if you go at a slow speed, it will take three hours."
"But the resurrection cooldown period is only 1 hour!"
Xu Ercong glanced at his companions and said in a deep voice, "Then we can just commit suicide and wait for an hour of resurrection cooldown before entering the game again."
"This way, we can save time traveling back and forth and staying in the Novice Village to recover health."
Bai Mengmeng admired him very much: "Ercong, you are such a genius!"
"But what if there is a penalty after death and the level is reduced?"
Chen Danshen hesitated and said, "It's so hard to level up. If you die and your level is lowered, wouldn't that be a waste of efficiency?"
"How do you know if you don't try?"
Xu Ercong smiled: "If the level is lowered, it means that this path is not feasible."
"But what if the level is not lowered?"
Xu Ercong chuckled: "Then, suicide will be the best way to save time in upgrading!"
…
"Is this guy a monster? What on earth is in his head?!"
Xu Xiaofan was stunned. He really didn't expect that the players' imaginations were so wild.
Xu Ercong even thought of taking advantage of the suicide resurrection loophole and used it to speed up the upgrade efficiency.
What a bunch of lunatics!
"No, I have to stop them!"
Xu Xiaofan made up his mind. He did not set any punishment after death because he felt that this group of players were working for him and the players' strength was related to his own improvement.
If players are given too many penalties and difficulties, it will affect the improvement of their strength.
However, if Xu Xiaofan ignores this matter and allows players to take advantage of the suicide resurrection loophole, it will also cause great negative impact.
It would be fine if only one or two players knew about this loophole. But if there are more players in the future and everyone starts to use suicide to save time on upgrading, then a large number of players will inevitably commit suicide every day. At that time, Xu Xiaofan will need to expend more divine power to repair the injuries of the players' corpses.
The power of the god of death requires life to produce.
With this calculation, Xu Xiaofan is actually at a greater loss, and he must stop players from taking advantage of this loophole.
"Brothers, for the sake of everyone's welfare, I am willing to be the first to try!"
Wang Dali took the initiative to step forward: "Anyway, I have died once, and it has been hard for everyone to help me level up. I am willing to give it a try and test whether there is a death penalty."
"Brothers!"
Chen Danshen patted Wang Dali on the shoulder and said, "Have a safe journey. It shouldn't hurt."
"elder brother."
Li Tiangou handed over his knife: "Here, hit him on the head. It will be more painful this way. A hit on the vital part can kill."
"Go away, I have my own."
Wang Dali pushed away Li Tiangou's knife. He looked down at his own long knife, put the knife in his eye socket and aimed it at the soul fire.
The feeling of the knife tip drilling into the eye socket is really strange.
"Brothers, let's be best friends in the next life!"
Wang Dali's tone was sad and his eyes were weathered, giving him the air of an ancient knight.
"Have a safe trip, brother."
"Dali, you will die miserably in a moment."
Li Tiangou knelt on the ground, crawling and crying.
In a 100% real virtual environment, everyone's inner drama spirit began to explode, and they fully immersed themselves in the game and had a blast.
"What do you mean you'll die miserably in a moment?"
Wang Dali put down his knife, looking confused.
Xu Ercong urged impatiently: "Stop nagging here, die quickly!"
Just when Wang Dali was about to take action.
The divine reminder sounded.
