The vast sea of stars, like a river of light shining among the stars, surrounds the head, side, and feet.
Cheng Peng sat on the small platform, leaning against the blue door of light, gazing at the vast sea of stars.
Each star is an independent world.
And every ray of light in the star sea means that a player has passed through the star gate and gone to other worlds.[
Cheng Peng liked to see this scene very much.
This gave him a sense of independence from the world - most scholars in the world, especially liberal arts scholars, have a tendency to be independent from the world. The only question is whether they will actually implement it.
As the saying goes, there is a beast in everyone's heart, but only a few people will let the beast out.
Cheng Peng is certainly not one of those few people.
After staring at the starry sky for a few minutes, he stood up and pressed his right hand on the blue door of light.
【Please select the target world.】
"Fantasy Township." Cheng Peng replied.
The scene in front of him blurred for a while, and the light door began to flow, taking him out.
With Cheng Peng's balance ability at the moment, it was naturally impossible for him to fall down so lightly. He didn't even stagger, but stood firmly as if strolling in a garden.
But the next moment, he exclaimed in surprise.
"How could this happen? Could it be that the Star Gate also malfunctions?"
In front of us is a bustling metropolis, bustling with traffic and people coming and going.
Fashionable young men and women, office workers in a hurry, leisurely strollers, vehicles running in the middle of the street, salespeople and shoppers in roadside shops...
There was an airship floating slowly in the sky. The big banner on the airship was advertising a newly opened amusement park.
There were several children on the street corner where he was standing. They were being led by an older boy who seemed to be their brother, waiting for the green light to go to the other side of the road - there was a movie theater over there, and the sign stated that Space Monsters was showing today.
, a special photo film with a Superman theme.
No matter how you look at it, it is a very ordinary scene. Before the arrival of Datong society, many big cities looked like this.
But...that's not right!
Cheng Peng couldn't help but open the system panel and check the map.
The name of the world you are currently in is clearly displayed on the map.[
[Fantasy Township, novices can enter, the upper limit of ability is eight stars.]
Yes, this is indeed where he is coming.
The problem is that this metropolis is completely opposite to the "Fantasy Township" he knows!
The so-called "Fantasy Township" is an isolated place. Although it exists in the "world", it is not the human world, but a place full of wonderful charm.
Modern civilization has not developed at all. Monsters and humans exist together. All kinds of "fantasies" that have been lost in reality exist there. On the contrary, "common sense" does not work there.
People's attire is a bit like ancient times, but in some aspects they have technology that surpasses modern times; martial arts masters, magicians, immortals, monsters, gods... all kinds of existences that are only legends in the outside world live there.
Today you may follow a group of human heroes to defeat a monster that likes to eat people, and tomorrow you may see a higher being far more powerful than that monster singing and dancing in the central square of the city to make people happy.
Of course it's not a peaceful coexistence, or "peace" in Gensokyo definitely doesn't mean that everyone sits down and chats in harmony, but it just means that the fight will not damage the entire Gensokyo...
Gensokyo is such an incredible place, and it is precisely because of its all-inclusive special charm that many people are fascinated by it. It is the largest game world, and it is conservatively estimated that more than 100,000 players reside here.
But no matter what, the city where Cheng Peng is located is obviously not Fantasyland.
He sighed and took out an invitation from his arms.
The white cardboard, dotted with red lace, adds a cheerful color to the simple invitation. On the front of the invitation is a mountain shrine. Although it is a bit old, it is very neat. Under the torii arch facing the shrine stands a fifteen-sixteen-year-old girl.
A 20-year-old girl, wearing a red and white witch costume, has a delicate face, but with the indifference unique to a hermit. The expression on her face can only be described as warm, not kind or malicious; the back of the invitation is written in a beautiful font.
"On the occasion of the establishment of the rules of the 'Spell Card War', you are cordially invited to Gensokyo to observe the ceremony", and the signature is "Hakurei Reimu".
Just such an invitation has already fetched a sky-high price on the forum. Many people are cursing Fengyue, the black-hearted businessman who speculated on the invitation, while increasing the price in the auction items, gritting their teeth to buy the invitation handwritten by the character they like.
For example, someone offered one thousand universal points to buy this invitation of his!
"It's absolutely crazy!" Cheng Peng commented.
Under normal circumstances, a player can only earn about a hundred points per month. The game has only been open for more than six months, and one thousand points is already more than the entire savings of an ordinary person!
But there are some people who are willing to do it.
If Liu Xueji, who sent him this invitation, had not repeatedly insisted that she must come, he would have really wanted to put this invitation up for auction.
Coincidentally, he was planning to leave the dark world and go to the planned martial arts worlds to learn Qing Kung Fu, when he received a text message from Liu Xueji.
The text message was very vague, it just invited him to come to Gensokyo to attend the ceremony, and I also attached this invitation.
"I'm here." He dialed Liu Xueji's private chat, "But why doesn't the scene I see look like Gensokyo at all?"
"This is a test." Liu Xueji replied, "If you can come to Hakurei Shrine with your own ability, you will have passed the test."
"Is there any benefit to passing the test?"[
"It's not decided yet." Liu Xueji's answer made him feel very powerful. "Lingmeng just came up with such an idea at Marisa's suggestion. As for the subsequent development, there is no rush anyway. You can think about it slowly."
"The 'Reimu' you're talking about refers to Reimu Hakurei, one of the final bosses in the Gensokyo world, right? As the final boss, but with such rough nerves, is it really okay?"
"If there's any problem, it's okay. You'll find out when we meet. I have to be busy with the arrangements here. Goodbye."
Cheng Peng sighed.
Then, he logged on to the forum.
Let’s check the information first.
Unfortunately, he could not find the real-life address of Gensokyo.
It's not that there are no clues at all, it's just that "Gensokyo is located approximately between Nagano Prefecture and Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. The famous landscapes 'Yasagatake Mountain Range' and 'Suwa Lake' can be used as a reference. As long as you find the Hakurei Shrine deep in the mountains, you will
You can go from the real world to the fantasy world..." These words seem very clear, but he, Cheng Peng, is not one of those kids who has never seen the world!
In a large scenic spot, you need to find a shrine deep in the mountains...
"First find an Internet cafe, download the electronic map and take a look."
In an Internet cafe near the corner, he unexpectedly met an acquaintance.
Wind.
Wen De seemed to be here to look for information, but he didn't operate the computer keyboard at all. Instead, he chatted animatedly with the waiter at the Internet cafe.
When Cheng Peng came in, the little girl with a ponytail was so amused by the wanderer that she laughed so hard that she was very happy.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Peng immediately felt relieved.
When it comes to fighting, he will definitely have no pressure to defeat a dozen Wen De, but when it comes to gathering intelligence, ten of them combined will not be able to equal the Wen De.
This handsome man who calls himself a street musician is extremely good at dealing with women. Basically, as long as they are women, he can become familiar with them in less than ten sentences, and then they can become friends within a few minutes, or even just chat.
It only takes a few times to develop into a physical relationship.
Li Wei once said sourly: "This guy Wen De must have an aura of being in love! Most of his ancestors were named Zeyue!"
The so-called "surname Sawoe" refers to a super playboy named Sawoetsu. By the way, one of the playboy's children is named Ito Makoto, who is also very famous.
In the period of time he has known Wen De, Cheng Peng has discovered that he has had ambiguous relationships with at least fifteen or sixteen women. As for the number of female NPCs with whom he has close relationships, there are too many to count.
With such a guy who is good at dealing with women, it must be easy to get information about Gensokyo from local NPCs...
Half an hour later, Cheng Peng and Wen De took a taxi to the nearby Yatsugatake Plateau Resort.
"In the deep mountains between Yatsugatake Resort and Lake Suwa, legend has it that there are some relics from the old era. Someone has seen a very ancient shrine more than once." Wen De took out his laptop Cheng Peng
He just bought it, and when he passed through the star gate, the system kindly converted the coins he had on him into Japanese yen, which was about 100 million, so he was responsible for paying, "Look, this journey is not very long.
, we can walk back and forth a few times, or simply walk, and we can probably search it all in one day at most."
"Where's the satellite map?"
"Of course not. It's still a test anyway. We can't pass it so easily."
Cheng Peng thought for a while and curiously asked Wen De where he got the invitation.
The two of them each took out their invitations.
Cheng Peng's invitation was distributed by Hakurei Shrine, and Wen De's invitation was distributed by Moriya Shrine.
However, unlike Cheng Peng, the letter writer on Wen De's invitation was not Sanae Tofutani, the shrine maiden of Moriya Shrine, but the deity enshrined in the shrine, Ya Suwako, an indigenous deity who is said to be a frog.
"It was a gift from a girlfriend." Wen De said matter-of-factly. "She said I must really like the scenery of Gensokyo, so she sent this to me."
"Oh? That's true. It is said that there are beautiful girls in Gensokyo..."
"Do you think I'm a pervert?"
"Aren't you?"
Wen De sighed when his character was questioned.
About three hours later, at the foot of the Hakurei Shrine in the mountains, Wang Hu, who was also invited, asked in surprise: "Who sent the invitation to him? Isn't this inviting a wolf into the house?"
In the following period, everyone they met who knew Wende sighed like this.
In the end, Wende had to get a mask to cover his face and promise not to cause trouble in Gensokyo, so he escaped the danger of being killed in advance by the vigilant players.
