Some people have money, and investing money in "Gods and Demons" is a kind of sacrifice. Some people have time, and investing time is also a kind of sacrifice. But Zhou Jian invested in both, selling all his wealth in a last-ditch effort, so he should be a little bit
Returned.
Zhou Jian made the right bet, and of course there was a lot of luck involved. The so-called ghost slayers were thieves with spiritual powers. To put it bluntly, they were a combination of the master profession and the thief profession.
Generally, the mental power attribute of a thief does not exceed 20, but the mental power attribute of a demon slayer will be greatly improved every time he upgrades. With mental power, he can retrieve objects from the air, control monsters, use mental attacks, etc.
Thieves are already proficient in assassination. If they can remotely control, master spiritual powers, and reach a state where they can leave no trace and everything in the world is a weapon, then their assassination skills will reach a terrifying level. This is where the name Demon Slayer comes from.
.
Zhou Jian originally wanted to upgrade in a low-key manner, but soon the opening of a new dungeon and the high rewards after passing the dungeon made him tempted. However, it was impossible for him to break through the dungeon alone, so he showed his skills in the Tianzun guild, and finally he was able to enter the Tianzun guild.
squad.
In fact, although Zhou Jian is a hidden professional demon slayer, his future achievements will definitely be great, but he hasn't had time to upgrade yet. He has only learned the most basic skill of a master to retrieve objects from the air. In terms of combat effectiveness, it is not worth it in the Tianzun team.
Mention.
However, this dungeon is quite special. Fifteen people enter the dungeon, fourteen of them are combatants, and the last one is the "messenger". The messenger's task is to take care of the NPCs while the other fourteen people are fighting the servants of the ultimate boss, the Demon King.
The gifted mission item - the amulet Pandora's seal was placed on the Demon King's altar to seal the Demon King's heart.
In this copy of the game, the Demon King's servant is responsible for guarding the Demon King's heart, and its power also comes from the Demon King's heart. As long as the heart is sealed, the power of the Demon King's servant will be greatly reduced, making it much easier to kill.
However, the altar containing the Demon King's heart is actually a magma furnace, with the heart suspended above it. No matter how high you are, you will definitely die if you jump into the magma. Therefore, the only people who can be messengers are masters, who use teleportation to retrieve Pandora's objects from the air.
The seal is placed on the devil's heart.
But a new problem arises. There is a circle of monsters around the altar. The controller, who is extremely brittle and slow, wants to slowly walk into the monster pile, put on a good shape, and then use telekinesis to pull Pandora away.
It is impossible to arrange the seal properly.
Hundreds of teams in the world tried various methods but ended in failure. In the end, they chose not to use the messenger, and fought against the final boss, and finally the whole army was annihilated...
As for Zhou Jian, although his equipment is either garbage obtained from missions or purchased from street stalls in stores, in terms of physical strength, he is not as good as a high-level controller, and a monster will die if he touches it, but he does know two skills:
With the thief's stealth and the controller's ability to retrieve objects from the air, he is very suitable for this task.
Sneaking through the monster group, he took the object from the air and threw the seal up. The world became harmonious. Then he didn't have to worry about anything, just waiting for the boss to die. He got a huge amount of experience, a purple epic equipment rewarded by the system, and six
Points can be allocated attribute points, 1000 honor points, in addition to unknown equipment dropped by the boss.
It is worth mentioning that the treasures in "Gods and Demons" are dropped by players. Each player can only see his own equipment, gold coins, and medicines. He can pick them up slowly, and all equipment that is bound to be picked up is
For the equipment of this profession, you don’t have to worry about getting something that can neither be used nor traded.
This will eliminate the problem of looting and unfair distribution of loot. If anyone still can't get equipment under this setting, they can only blame their appearance and help the old lady cross the road more. So Zhou
Jian is not afraid that he will not be able to share the spoils because of his low level.
Zhou Jian was having such a sweet dream and logged into the game. However, after he put on his helmet, he got a message that made him fall from heaven to hell. The system prompted: The Demon Slayer "Dark Sword" character does not exist, and the system data is lost.
Reason for loss: unknown.
I wipe it!
What a joke!
Zhou Jian did not believe in evil, so he logged in again, but the prompt was still the same.
Damn!
Zhou Jian went crazy. After three months of hard work and so much effort, he was just waiting to earn some money from playing this game and pay off the foreign debt to buy the helmet. How could this be the result?
In the past three months, Zhou Jian has hardly attended classes. Although you can skip classes in college, it does not mean that there is no punishment for skipping classes. Zhou Jian has already read many teachers' notebooks and is just waiting to deal with you during the exam. It can be said that,
Zhou Jian's reconstruction is already a certainty.
At Lingnan University, you need to pay a retake fee for retakes! Each credit is 100 yuan. Zhou Jian conservatively estimates that he will have to pay 1,800 for retakes this time. If he has no income, how can he ask for money from poor families?
In addition, because Zhou Jian "doesn't do his job properly", the girls in his class generally have a bad impression of him. After all, in the eyes of most people, although you can make a lot of money by playing online games, it is not a legitimate career, so even if
Zhou Jian was lucky enough to be in a class with many beauties, but it was almost impossible for him to have a small love affair in college.
If he loses his game account again, he will really lose everything.
Zhou Jian tried to log in to his account over and over again, but he always got a ruthless prompt from the system. He took off his gaming helmet with some frustration. At this moment, the door of the dormitory was pushed open, and a tall man with a height of 1.85 meters was pushed open.
A tall man walked in. This guy had a high nose, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looked like a dog at first sight. At this time, he was spinning a basketball in his right hand and carrying a lunch box in his left hand. He was wearing a red basketball vest with yellow sports underneath.
Wearing shorts, the exposed calves are covered with a patch of hairy leg hair.
This person's name is Luo Haishan, nicknamed "Mule". He was Zhou Jian's best friend from elementary school to university. The two of them applied for the Chinese Department of Lingnan University together during the college entrance examination. Later, they were assigned to the same dormitory by "accident".
"It happened" that there were actually three boys in their class, and they were all assigned to a dormitory that was not fully occupied...
"It's amazing. You didn't play "Gods and Demons". Didn't you clear the copy today? I stopped playing basketball just to come back to see you." Luo Haishan put down his lunch box casually. This was Zhou Jian's dinner. These few
Yue was so focused on playing games that his mule bought his dinner.
Zhou Jian shook his head helplessly and told what happened.
"No, this is all right? Doesn't "Gods and Demons" claim to have the most powerful server in the world? How could such a mistake happen?"
"I don't know. I'm going to report to the official website and send an email to see if I can get it back." Although he said this, Zhou Jian had no idea at all. "Gods and Demons" is a world-class game with too many players.
Customer service has to deal with an unimaginable amount of emails every day, and Zhou Jian invested zero money in "Gods and Demons".
The so-called non-RMB players have a very low priority. It will take years and months to solve the problem. Even if the account is recovered by then, its value will be far less than it is now. And even if the email is deleted by "God"
"Magic" customer service has seen it, can the lost system data really be recovered?
"It's okay, we brothers have a long way to go, let's eat first." The mule handed over the lunch box.
Zhou Jian opened his lunch box depressedly and wrote an email to the official website while eating, "Oh, I originally wanted to make some money from "Gods and Demons", but now it seems that the 8,000 yuan in helmet money I owe you is enough this year."
Zhou Jian borrowed the money to buy the helmet from Mule, a total of 8,200 yuan. If you play well with an online game account, you can earn several thousand yuan a month. Zhou Jian originally planned to pay off the money he owed Mule this semester.
Hope seems slim now.
Mule's family is very well off. His parents have opened a small company. In this era, the monthly income of high-level white-collar workers in big cities generally exceeds 10,000 yuan. Of course, consumption has also increased accordingly, but 8,000 yuan is still a huge amount of money for a student.
In particular, Zhou Jian's family background is not very good, and his annual living expenses are only 5,000 yuan.
The mule took out two cans of beer from under the bed, opened one and handed it to Zhou Jian, saying: "I'm bored. I can handle this little money, brother, so don't mention it to me again. It's not like I don't know your strength, borrow money."
I guessed that you were going to lose money when I started, and I wasn’t prepared for you to pay it back. Even though I was later tricked into a hidden career by you, and as a result, you were able to catch up with even the most extreme things like losing data in the system. It was just a matter of your looks.
Who is to blame?"
Zhou Jian knew that Mule Zi hurt him just to adjust the atmosphere. In normal times, he would definitely have to hurt him back, but today he was not in that mood. "Okay, you still hurt me when I'm so miserable. It's okay. I can bear it. Even if
If I really can’t find it, I’ll start from scratch, but the helmet is still there anyway.”
"Haha, that's good. Come on, let's have a drink."
At this moment, Zhou Jian's phone rang.
He didn't want to answer it at first, but when he saw it was his mother's number, he had to adjust his mood, picked up the phone, and called in as calm a tone as possible, "Mom."
"Xiaojian, why did I receive a call from the head teacher saying that you always don't go to class?"
Zhou Jian suddenly had two big heads. This beautiful class teacher was so full that even the counselor didn't care about such trivial matters. She actually called her home. Wasn't this a slap in the face?
There is no way, this beautiful class teacher is a newly graduated graduate student, and her work is so serious that it is inexplicable.
"Mom, what's the matter? I wasn't feeling well a few days ago, and I didn't miss many classes." Although Zhou Jian is filial, lying to his parents is something that comes easily. In his words, this
They are all "white lies".
"Don't think that your mother and I are confused. I heard from your class teacher that you bought a gaming helmet to play online games every day. The cheapest gaming helmet costs more than 8,000 yuan. Where did you get so much money?"
Zhou Jian has nothing to say. Although he has a close relationship with Mule, he must not tell his mother about borrowing money. If she knows that he borrowed money to play games, he will get angry. You know, he is studying at Lingnan University.
Tuition fees still depend on student loans.
Moreover, she couldn't explain things like online games at all. Zhou Jian did like to play online games, but his purpose of playing online games was also to make money and reduce the burden on his family. The profits of online games are too high now. Just imagine a platform with over 100 million players.
Not to mention anything else, how much money does it cost just from media advertising revenue? This can be a virtual world of its own, and the influence of influential figures in it is unimaginable. A world with more than 100 million people does not sound very conceptual, but
In fact, this is more populous than the United Kingdom and France, which is equivalent to a large country with a large population!
Zhou Jian believes that if he keeps playing "Gods and Demons", he can change his life. Of course, it is full of hardships, but think about it on the other hand, if he goes to work in society, he wants to break out in this era when undergraduates are not as good as pigs and dogs.
A Sky is probably more difficult than playing "Gods and Demons".
After that, Zhou Jian kept accepting his mother's ideological education. After more than ten minutes, he finally put down the phone.
Mule smiled and said to Zhou Jian: "Haha, it seems that our beautiful class teacher cares about you. It's hard to bear the kindness of a beauty. You are lucky."
"I'm so dizzy, you, this beast, can't you have some virtue in your mouth?"
Mule smiled and took a sip of wine, his expression became a little more serious, "What's your plan? Or should you decide to keep playing online games?"
Zhou Jian nodded, "Unlike you, I still have some family background. I have no strengths, and my major is not easy to find a job. In four years, if I want to survive in Huadu, a city with a house price of over 10,000 yuan, I must start now.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to pay off my student loan in the future, and...my dad is not in good health."
Zhou Jian lives in a rural area. His parents opened a small rural clinic. However, his father has always been in poor health. He sells medicine and takes it himself. Life is very tight, and the family borrows money to build a new house.
Zhou Jian's burden on Zhou Jian is very heavy. There is too much pressure in today's society. Even if Zhou Jian graduates with excellent grades in all subjects and has no work experience, he will not be able to find a high-paying job in Huadu. Even if he finds it, his family will
The debts owed, including student loans, were enough for him to pay off his studies for two or three years. At that time, getting married, falling in love, and anything else were too extravagant for him.
So when others were still talking about love and dreaming about the future in freshman year, he had to start working hard.
Mule patted Zhou Jian's shoulder and said, "No more words. Brother, I support you. Come on, let's have a drink."
The two of them drank for an hour and finished half a box of beer. Mule had a large amount of beer, but Zhou Jian had an average amount of alcohol. He drank so much that he was in a daze and went to bed at ten o'clock.
As for Mule, he rented a house outside and lived with his girlfriend. When Zhou Jian fell asleep, he went out to accompany his girlfriend. He made an appointment with his girlfriend to go shopping tomorrow.
Luo Zi's girlfriend is his neighbor, and they were childhood sweethearts. Luo Zi applied for the Chinese Department of Lingnan University largely because of her. The woman's family background is also good. Both parents have met and agreed to get married after graduation.
As for Zhou Jian's other roommate, his name is Wang Xiaoyin. Like Zhou Jian, he is also a bachelor. He is a native of Huadu City and tomorrow is the weekend, so he skipped class and went home in the afternoon.
So today, Zhou Jian was the only one in the dormitory.
In a daze, Zhou Jian had a dream, in which he dreamed that he had become a thief who could fly into the sky and escape from the earth, punishing rapes and eradicating evil, stealing secret treasures, gratifying grudges, making countless fortunes, and winning the love of countless beauties...
Zhou Jian in the dream was so awesome that even he realized that he was dreaming. Later, Zhou Jian drank too much and woke up from urinating. This beautiful dream was ruined halfway.
What a strange dream. Zhou Jian got up in a daze, but suddenly saw a person standing in front of his desk. It was so dark that he could not see his face...
Zhou Jian was startled, and all his sleepiness was gone, "Damn, Xiaoyin, you want to scare me to death if you stay up so late at night!"
No reply...
Wait, although that person looks to be about the same height as Xiaoyin, his profile doesn't look much like him. Besides, Xiaoyin went home today, so there's no reason to go back to the dormitory in the middle of the night.
Zhou Jian's heart skipped a beat when he thought of this. Who is this person? What does he want to do when he comes in?
Thief? Robber? Murderer?
A chill ran down Zhou Jian's spine, and he subconsciously reached out to touch someone who could take advantage of him, but he only touched his cell phone.
"Who are you anyway?"
Zhou Jian turned on the backlight, looked through the light, and almost screamed. The person standing in front of the desk turned out to be...himself?
How is this possible!?
But looking at the facial features and appearance, they are obviously exactly the same as me. If that is me, then what is "this lump" lying on the bed?
Are you still dreaming?
Dazzled after drinking too much?
Absolutely not, this real and clear feeling is definitely not fake.
Could it be that he was killed while sleepwalking and his soul left his body?
The one on the bed is the soul, and the one in front of the desk is the body?
Damn, what a joke!
Zhou Jian was so angry that he rolled out of bed and said, "Bah!" Turn on the light!
The ancient fluorescent lamp flickered, as if it could not be started, and the figure also flickered on and off in the flickering light. These short few seconds were extremely long...
Zhou Jian subconsciously held the phone tightly. This antique brick phone was not light. He thought that if the figure rushed towards him, he would throw the phone with all his strength, and he expected that his head would be broken.
Finally, the whole room lit up. After seeing the scene in front of him clearly, Zhou Jian opened his mouth wide enough to put down an egg. He just stared blankly at "himself" in front of the table, speechless for a long time.
The man did look exactly like himself, except that his eyes were not as bright as they were. But this was not the reason for Zhou Jian's surprise. After all, he was mentally prepared. What surprised him was that the man was wearing clothes from the game "Gods and Demons"
He wears a tombrobber's cloak, a pair of bloody attack claws tied to his hands, a pair of blast leggings on his legs, and boots of speed on his feet. Looking further down his neck and hands, there are actually an assassin's ring and a blast necklace.
This... isn't this the equipment you wore in "Gods and Demons"?
Zhou Jian feels that his brain is not enough. What does this mean? Could it be that this... this person is "himself" in the game?
In the online game "Gods and Demons", the appearance of the game character will reflect the appearance of the real person. Of course, if the player does not want to reveal his appearance, he can choose to mask himself or disguise himself appropriately. Zhou Jianyong will always have his original appearance. In other words
, Zhou Jian’s appearance in the game is exactly the same as the guy at the desk.
Couldn't it be...that my character in the game, Demon Slayer, "jumped" out of the system and came to the real world?
That’s why the system loses data. The explanation is quite “reasonable”, but...this kind of thing actually happens?
Zhou Jian touched "his" face, and it felt exactly like a real person, but the person seemed unconscious, like a robot.
Zhou Jian suddenly realized a ridiculous possibility. He took the gaming helmet, put it on and started the game.
"Beep——" The system prompts: The Demon Slayer "Dark Sword" character does not exist, the system data is lost, and the reason for the loss is unknown.
However, despite the system prompts, Zhou Jian still entered the "game". His vision was blurred at first, and then became clear. The role switch was successful, but the scene in front of him was not the Pangu City in the game, but him.
Dormitory 522 was extremely familiar, and "himself" wearing a gaming helmet was sitting in front of him.
In other words, his consciousness switched from his original self to the Demon Slayer Dark Sword, but both of them were in the same room.
Good guy, this is a big joke!
Zhou Jian moved his "new body" and checked his attributes. Strength: 40, agility: 120, physical strength: 40, magic power: 20, and spirit: 20.
He jumped casually and jumped directly from the desk to the door, spanning a distance of five or six meters in one step.
Zhou Jian took a deep breath, took out the Thief's Key, activated his unlocking skills, and fiddled with the door twice. Bang! The door opened.
The abilities are exactly the same as in the game!
He felt a little confused, so he came to the balcony and looked downstairs from the balcony. It was about two o'clock in the morning, it was dead of night, there was no one outside, and behind the dormitory building was the mountain behind the school, and there were very few people there even during the day.
.
Zhou Jian's heart skipped a beat, he gritted his teeth and jumped down.
This is the fifth floor. Although Zhou Jian has done similar actions many times in the game, he still feels numb after trying it once in real life.
The howling wind came towards his face, and Zhou Jian felt like a big bird, his body very light.
"Crack!"
After landing safely, Zhou Jian rolled on the ground and his legs were slightly numb, but it was not a big problem. It felt more real than in the game.
Looking up at his dormitory, it almost disappeared into the darkness. Although the scene was extremely real, he still felt like a dream.
Take off!
Zhou Jian jumped four to five meters high and clung directly to the balcony on the second floor. Then he used his arms hard and took off again, climbing on the wall of the dormitory building like a gecko. It only took him half a minute to climb down from the building.
I climbed down to the fifth floor and returned to the balcony of my dormitory!
It’s really exactly the same as the Demon Slayer’s ability in the game!
Zhou Jian took a deep breath, and a mixture of excitement and joy gradually emerged in his heart.
Now Zhou Jian is short of money, very short of money, so after he got such a controllable ghost killer, the first thing he thought of was how to use it to make money.
To put it bluntly, Demon Slayers are thieves and assassins, but in the real world stealing and killing are both illegal and cannot be done.
It's a pity that there is no Olympic Games now. If you don't take advantage of your body to participate in the Olympic Games, you will definitely get a lot of gold medals and bonuses.
The Olympic Games were canceled fifteen years ago. The main reason was the rise of ancient martial arts. Disciples of the ancient martial arts family could easily set new world records. For them, participating in the Olympics was only about whose martial arts was superior.
After mankind experienced the disaster in the middle of the last century, ancient martial arts gradually began to penetrate into the real society. In China, there are seven ancient martial arts families. They are all high-ranking figures to ordinary people. Under normal circumstances, Zhou Jian and
They won't have any intersection.
Go to the ancient martial arts family to be an instructor or elder or something, and get a high salary?
It doesn't seem to work, after all, I am still in school, and the Kotake family has some connections with the government. Once the secret of my possessing a demon slayer is discovered, I am afraid that the government will step in and punish me in the name of exploring unknown science or safeguarding national security.
If you conduct research on house arrest, you might become a guinea pig.
Make money...make money...what is the most profitable thing to do?
It seems to be opening a company, but what can you do with a Demon Slayer? Opening a martial arts gym is more reliable...
Wait, start a company. Zhou Jian suddenly had an idea and started a bounty hunting company! He specializes in taking on difficult and high-risk jobs.
However, opening a company is not a simple matter. It requires space and registered capital.
Moreover, the Bounty Hunter Company does not appear to be a serious company at first glance, and the government will probably not approve it. It can only contact people privately, but the problem arises again, how to build a reputation and how to contact the employer?
Is it just a small advertisement on a telephone pole? You might get beaten up by the urban management team. Even if it is painted on, can people believe it?
It's easy to imagine, but it's not that troublesome to actually operate.
Zhou Jian felt that the alcohol from last night hadn't passed yet, and his mind was racing with thoughts about these things. Forget it, let's go to bed first.
He quit the game and took off his helmet. As soon as he took off the helmet, the Demon Slayer standing in the room disappeared out of thin air.
Huh?
Where has this guy gone? He can't just disappear, God, don't play with me.
Zhou Jian put on the helmet again, and as he had never believed in God, he couldn't help but recite a few lines of Amitabha. After logging into the game, his consciousness switched again, and Zhou Jian became a demon slayer again.
Looking at himself sitting on the stool, Zhou Jian let out a sigh of relief, "Good guy, I'm scared to death."
Exit the game and the Demon Slayer disappears again.
Zhou Jian tried it several times and finally determined that as long as he put on the helmet, the ghost slayer would appear, and if he took off the helmet, the ghost slayer would hide.
Let's call this puppet "Famous Sword" from now on. With this thought in mind, Zhou Jian climbed into bed and slept.
This night, Zhou Jian slept very soundly.
It was already ten o'clock in the morning when he woke up. Normally, he would not have been willing to sleep so late, because there were the fewest people in the server in the morning, and both upgrading and completing tasks would be much faster.
This weekend, Mule went to accompany the woman and went home for a drink. Zhou Jian was the only one in the dormitory. He was used to putting on his helmet as soon as he got up and entering the game. Now he suddenly had nothing to do. Zhou Jian felt empty and wanted to think about how to kill ghosts.
Let's make money.
Zhou Jian wanted to search online to find out how the masters of the ancient martial arts family made money, but at this moment, his phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar number.
After the connection, an unusually sweet voice sounded, "Hello, are you Mr. Zhou Jian?"
"It's me, who are you?"
"Mr. Zhou Jian, I am the customer service staff of "Gods and Demons". We received your email. In the email, you said that the system data of the game character "Dark Sword" you created was lost, is that right?"
Zhou Jian was suddenly startled. "It's impossible for the staff of "Gods and Demons". With his own priority, how could the email he sent be seen by customer service so quickly? Besides, this weekend, there must be fewer customer service staff on duty than usual.
However, he was still confused. Zhou Jian was still overjoyed to receive a call from the customer service staff, "Yes, have you recovered your account?"
