Volume 1: The Beginner's First Cry Chapter 16 Consultation
Not long after that, I visited the "Dead Soul Space" again. I felt a little embarrassed. Thinking about my performance, I was really bad! I was really stupid. Why didn't I just take the official road? It was leisurely and safe. Why did I have to be a hero and show off my power with a group of beasts? I was too petty. Why did I have to go against the beasts? I lost my life and the undead army I had just formed. The results of several hours of hard work turned into nothing in a few seconds. The more I thought about it, the sadder I was I didn't want to live anymore!
But then again, this old silver wolf is too abominable. I didn't provoke it. At most, I was a little close to it. There's no need to be so angry. Not only did the majority bully the minority, but it even let its men cut me into pieces. When I saw my body torn into pieces before I died, although I didn't really feel any pain, I felt very uncomfortable. Humph, since you did it on the first day, don't blame me for doing it on the fifteenth. When I become strong enough, I will lead my army of undead to sweep across the grassland, demolish your nest, kill all your brothers, pull out your teeth, and peel off your skin.
Taotao sensed my arrival and quickly appeared beside me, rubbing its body against me affectionately. Fortunately, I cannot summon it for the time being, otherwise it would have been doomed to fail, and I would have to consume 3% of my mental strength limit to revive it, which would have been a huge loss!
I patted Taotao's head, and for a moment I was in a state of confusion. I didn't know what to do. Facing so many powerful enemies, I was too weak. Am I overestimating my own abilities? I looked at the time. It was almost eight hours since I went online. It was time to take a break. So many things had happened. I should also think calmly and discuss with Afeng how to develop.
In order to ensure the physical and mental health of players, and to prevent them from being addicted to games and neglecting their diet and sleep, all virtual online games stipulate that players can only be online for a maximum of 16 hours a day, and must log off to rest after exceeding the time. I heard that in many countries, there were cases of players dying suddenly from playing games for days and nights without sleep. Under the coordination and intervention of relevant departments of various governments, such a regulation was uniformly introduced. Players can freely choose their rest time, but they must ensure that it is not less than eight hours a day. Afeng and I discussed and decided that if there is no special situation, we will rest twice, each for four hours, so that we can ensure that we can be in the best state to devote ourselves to the game. After all, we are not professional players with extraordinary energy. We are willing but unable to fight continuously!
I quit the game, took off my helmet, and sighed deeply. The road ahead is long and arduous. Where go to find my way? Looking at Afeng who was still playing the game, I stood up and walked to the kitchen. I had to get something to eat first.
I was busy in the kitchen when Ah Feng burst open the door and rushed in, shouting at me, "Ah Dai, are you the first guy to change his job as announced by Tian Xia?"
I remained calm and collected, "What do you think? Am I that good?"
A Feng scratched his head, looking confused. "I don't think so either. For a rookie like you, it's impossible even if you perform at a superb level. Number One among 30 million players, that requires a very high level and luck! But besides you, is there anyone else who likes the name A Dai? Forget it, I don't want to think about this. My name in the game is Windtalker, and I'm currently in Qinglong City. Where are you now and what's your name?"
I stirred the food in the pot deftly. "I tried many names, but they were all already taken. In the end, I couldn't remember any, so I had to use Ah Dai."
"I've said it before, those so-called 'cool' names you prepared are also used by many people. They are hard to apply for, so you should still use them... What, what, tell me again, what is your name in the game?"
"Ah, let me make one thing clear. I didn't use it because I like it. To be honest, this name is really lame."
"That's impossible. The same name is not allowed in the game. How can you also be called Ah Dai? Ah, are you that Ah Dai?"
I nodded seriously, "If you mean the first job changer, Ah Dai, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I am the super lucky star Ah Dai with extremely high standards that you mentioned."
Seeing Afeng stunned, his body stiff, and an expression of extreme surprise, I felt so happy and my mood instantly improved a lot. It seems that I am not useless after all, and there are many people who envy me.
"Please make way. I'm going to serve the dishes. Go wash up and prepare for dinner." I woke up Afeng, who was still in a petrified state. I just accidentally got first place. What's the big deal? Ha, you're acting like a mountain man who hasn't seen the world. It's a pity that he has been playing this game for such a long time, but his psychological endurance is so poor. No wonder he always plays badly.
During the meal, I refused to answer any questions and said we would talk about everything after we finished eating. Afeng couldn't persuade me and had to force me to finish the meal in a hurry. I almost choked to death, which made me sigh that I was trapped in my own trap. At my suggestion, Afeng rushed to wash the pots and bowls, and then rushed to me who was resting with my eyes closed.
"Tell me, what profession did you change to?"
"Necromancer."
"Necromancer? Is there such a profession? Is it a hidden profession?"
I immediately told Afeng everything that happened after I entered the game, which earned me exclamations of surprise. Afeng's mouth hardly closed until I finished speaking.
"Well, no wonder you were able to change jobs so quickly. At that time, I hadn't even walked into the city yet. I was shocked to hear the system announcement that someone had already changed jobs. The gap was too big! Later, when I went to the city, I heard players talking about this matter. They were wondering who this lucky fool was and how he did it. Many people thought it was done by top professional players, some thought it was done by senior executives of Tianxia International, and some even thought it was someone who took advantage of a system bug. I'm afraid no one would have thought it was done by a rookie like you, haha."
I couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat. I didn't expect that I would be so famous. Fortunately, the player's personal information is hidden, otherwise how can a low-level necromancer who is exposed live? It seems that I must be careful in the future. First, I must only say three-tenths of what I say to others, and I can't reveal my real name to people who are not friends. Second, I must be careful of thieves. I heard that they have a skill called "Observe Words and Expressions" that can see through the player's true identity. Of course, the premise is that his professional level must be higher than mine.
Afeng's analysis coincides with mine. People are afraid of being famous, just like pigs are afraid of being fat. Especially since I am an evil undead wizard, the Church of Light will definitely not let me go. Although the Eastern Continent is safe for the time being, the "World" designed mainly by Western developed countries such as the European Union and the United States will intentionally or unintentionally lean towards the power of the Church of Light. Just looking at the churches in various cities, we know that the strength and expansion of the Church of Light is inevitable, it is just a matter of time. As their mortal enemy, my prospects are really not optimistic!
But I am not completely powerless. I have a special hidden profession, excellent innate attributes, and the attributes of the storage belt are even better. I can also choose a second profession. According to what the dead old man said, although it is unlikely to fight against the Church of Light, it is not difficult to save my life. I am not the only necromancer, and various hostile forces must exist. They can't come out in full force to hunt me down alone.
In a word, strength is the bottom line. Only when you become strong can you gain basic living space. The Church of Light cannot cover the sky with one hand. There will always be other forces to compete with it. Who owns "The World" can only be known after playing it.
Afeng expressed extreme envy of my fate, lamenting that the world is unfair, why is it always me who is lucky. In fact, I envy him a lot, three stars in life, three stars in physique, three stars in strength, half stars in wisdom and agility, and the storage belt attribute "attack adds 5% extra damage value, life limit increases by 5%", which is definitely a suitable knight, with high health and high defense, it is not easy to die! Unlike me, I died twice in less than eight hours, and I didn't even see the shadow of a city.
Ah Feng sneered at my complaint, "You asked for . You ignored the official road and went through the dangerous wilderness. Who do you think you are? An invincible god of war or a super lucky star?"
However, I had a little disagreement with Afeng on the choice of my second career. Afeng thought that I'd better choose a magician career. My life, physique, and strength are too low, so I can't be a knight, swordsman, or axe warrior. My agility is not high, so it's difficult to be a shooter or a thief. I don't have any future. Choosing to learn a series of magic should be very helpful to improve my strength.
I don't want my second career to be a magic profession. Although it is undoubtedly the best choice on the surface, and it is also the successful experience summarized by many famous masters, I always want to show some difference I can't do it in reality. If I don't choose to indulge in the game, I am afraid I will never have a chance in this life. Even if it is to satisfy my own little bit of vanity, I want to boldly make a combination. At worst, my soul will be destroyed and everything will start all over again. I have nothing. Success is gratifying, and failure is just where I came from and where I will go.
