Chapter 837 A mixture of joy and sorrow, a lottery battle!
"award……"
As soon as he heard this, Fang Yun suddenly felt something in his heart, remembering that today seemed to be the day to receive the award in the All-Star Game.
Domestic logistics in 2008 was far less developed than in previous generations. Although the rewards for their All-Star victory this time were very generous, the physical rewards are still on the way to express delivery until now.
As for the 500,000 cash prize, the official contacted him the day after he won the championship. After asking for his bank account and verifying his identity, he asked him to wait patiently, saying that he would be given the money as soon as the company's internal procedures were completed.
The 500,000 bonus was transferred to Fang Yun's account in small increments.
Therefore, although it has been four full days since they won the championship, as the All-Star champions, they have not even touched a single hair of the reward.
As someone who has experienced this, Fang Yun is not in a hurry. After all, he knows that these processes are normal operations, and he would feel strange if they were done too quickly.
But he is not in a hurry. Beast Master and others, who have won the championship reward for the first time, can no longer wait.
Judging from their anxious looks, they seemed to think that since the physical rewards would not be available for a while, they should first get the virtual rewards as soon as possible.
After thinking about it, Fang Yun could only say: "You should be able to receive the reward today, but we are on the mountain now. Even if you are anxious, do you have to wait until we get back?"
"That's not necessary."
Hearing this, Master Beast smiled and said, "I just called Lao Liu and rented two cars. They should be delivered soon. Didn't we say we wanted to go on an island tour before? How can we beat taking a bus?
I’m going to drive myself, so…”
"So you're going to drive down the mountain to find an Internet cafe?"
Before he could finish speaking, Fang Yun looked at him speechlessly and asked.
He knew this guy very well. When he was in the capital, he would just think about it. But when he arrived at Sanya, he still refused to change his mind. He couldn't enjoy the coconut-wind beach and his white legs. The first thing he did when he landed was to find an Internet cafe.
play games……
After being pointed out by Fang Yun, Master Beast smiled awkwardly, clasped his hands and said, "Please, Mr. Cheng, I will receive a reward for you guys. After receiving it, we will do whatever we need to do!"
"...Okay, let's have lunch first. I'll go with you after lunch."
Thinking that if he didn't let him get rid of this knot in his heart, this guy might talk about him to death, Fang Yun shook his head helplessly, and finally agreed to the other party.
Promising to go down the mountain with Beast Master and the others to find an Internet cafe in the afternoon, Fang Yun no longer cared about enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of him. He immediately gathered everyone together with crispy wine, and then walked towards the restaurant of the resort in a noisy manner.
A total of nine people came this time, namely Fang Yun, Beast Master, Huang He, Liu Siyu, Liu Ximeng, Meng Ge, Su Jiu, Guo Yi and his little daughter Nannan.
These people say that more is not too much, but even if they say less, it is definitely not too little.
Fortunately, because we are a team, we are still very familiar with each other. The group of people came to the restaurant chatting and laughing, each found a place to sit down and started ordering meals.
Soon, more than an hour passed.
After everyone had eaten and drank, Guo Yi had to go back to take a nap with his daughter, so he was unable to participate in the afternoon trip to the Internet cafe.
As for the others, one by one, even though Fang Yun kept insisting that he just found an Internet cafe to collect the rewards and come back, in the end he still couldn't overcome the curiosity of this group of people, and a group of eight men and women went to kill them under the scorching sun.
Go to the parking lot, get into the two SUVs sent by the car rental company, and drive down the mountain.
Soon, as Mr. Beast drove his SUV gradually into the urban area of Sanya, looking at the familiar yet slightly unfamiliar cityscape outside, Fang Yun couldn't help but have a flash of reminiscence in his eyes.
Although Sanya in 2008 has begun to show its huge potential as an international tourist city, compared with 2021, when all aspects are highly mature, the overall business atmosphere in Sanya today is not that strong.
But even so, Mr. Beast's eyes were still as if equipped with Beidou positioning. It didn't take long to find an Internet cafe with an old-looking sign that was open.
After parking the two SUVs on the roadside, as soon as everyone got out of the car, they saw a coconut seller right next to them.
After asking about the price, they learned that these things only cost one yuan each. The eyes of the three girls including Meng Gesujiu and Liu Ximeng suddenly lit up, and they decisively took out the money and bought one for each of them.
Asking the seller to help cut the mouth open, the group walked into the Internet cafe with a coconut in each hand while drinking.
As soon as he stepped into the Internet cafe, looking at the slightly outdated equipment and the smoke everywhere, Fang Yun raised his eyebrows, feeling a little nostalgic in his heart.
Since he was reborn, except for those early days when he had to go to the Internet cafe to play games because he had no money, he has been playing all at home since then.
And if we trace back to the source, his first two main accounts, Qiancheng and Qianqiu, were created in Internet cafes, and Qiancheng helped him successfully solve the financial problem, which allowed him to escape from the chaos at an extremely fast speed.
Internet cafes rent rooms and buy computers near the school.
Returning to the Internet cafe where the dream began, Fang Yun glanced at the cashier at the front desk, then took the lead and took out his ID card to start checking in.
Although this Internet cafe is small and has old equipment, there are not many people coming to surf the Internet.
After finishing the check-in process, everyone walked around twice inside and found that there were neither private rooms nor connected computers. Beast Master decisively activated his best cash-paying ability, which helped everyone solve the problem of getting on the plane.
When a thin, dark boy who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old stood up and left cheerfully, holding 100 yuan in his hand, Fang Yun glanced at the proud Mr. Beast with some humor, pulled out the chair and sat on it.
After entering the login password to enter the desktop, Fang Yun controlled the mouse and clicked on the Fantasy Westward Journey client, and at the same time took out his general order from his pocket.
Game account theft is still very rampant these days. The reason why they dare to go to Internet cafes to collect prizes is mainly because their accounts are bound to general orders, so there is basically no possibility of being stolen.
"Tsk, it's a bit slow."
Taking out the General's Order, Fang Yun raised his head and found that the game was still stuck on the login interface. He couldn't help pouting and could only wait patiently.
After a while, when the client finally came to its senses, Fang Yun quickly entered his account password and quickly logged into the game.
The account he logged in with was Qiancheng, and as for Qianqiu, he left it to Master Beast to log in.
The championship award only counts the five players who appeared in the finals. Since Beast Master's own account was assigned to the bench in the finals, Fang Yun made an agreement with him from the beginning that when he could receive the award, Qianqiu's share would be counted.
On the beast's head.
Soon, Fang Yun, who logged in to the game, was not in a hurry to claim the prize. Instead, he opened the window and entered the official website.
Receiving the prize needs to be unlocked, and due to an update some time ago, players now have to wait 10 minutes to unlock it after logging in to the game, so even if they want to claim it immediately, they can't get it and can only wait for these 10 minutes first.
.
Entering the official website of Fantasy Westward Journey, Fang Yun raised his eyes and scanned it. After seeing today's update announcement, he immediately clicked in to check it out.
The update content is still the same as usual, which is nothing more than the optimization of some in-game gameplay or the launch of some small functions.
These Eastern and Western clouds were basically passed by at a glance, and the eyes quickly came to the end of the announcement.
"In order to cooperate with the testing of the expansion pack "Mount World", relevant expansion pack resources are released."
Seeing this brief trailer at the end, Fang Yun, who was half-lying on the chair, suddenly sat upright.
The new expansion pack is coming ahead of schedule again, which is not too surprising to him.
What really concerned him was that with the release of the Mount World expansion pack, ‘mount’, a gameplay that has long been available in other games, will finally appear in Fantasy Westward Journey.
But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the emergence of the Mount World expansion pack will not only improve the gameplay, but also the "cross-server challenge" gameplay will also be officially released!
The word ‘cross-server’ is still a new word in today’s fantasy world.
After all, except for server battles or All-Stars, players on each server today can only work in their own servers, and almost all conflicts arise internally.
This will lead to a situation where internal conflicts will be difficult to resolve if they accumulate to a certain depth. Unless one party is completely defeated by the other party, otherwise the two sides will engage in high-intensity battles around the clock and fight forever when they meet.
Without stopping.
With the emergence of cross-server gameplay, the intractable conflicts in many servers can finally get a window to be exported. At the same time, new conflicts arising from cross-server 'communication' will also trigger a new round of arms race. If things continue like this
Internet billions will only win money.
Thinking that after the new expansion pack is released, all the major servers in Fantasy will face countless new challenges. Fang Yun, the number one player in Fantasy, also feels a surge of emotion. He just wants to update the new expansion pack quickly, and he also has new ones.
It was quite lively.
After retracting his thoughts and reading the announcement, Fang Yun closed the webpage and returned to the game. He had just finished unlocking the Datang, when he saw Sujiu sitting next to him suddenly put his hands together and prayed.
"This is..."
Seeing Sujiu's actions, Fang Yun was stunned for a moment. When his eyes turned to the screen in front of her, he realized that the woman had already controlled her monk and came to the 'Martial God Altar Star Competition Envoy', clicked on the dialog box, and placed the mouse
On the option to receive rewards.
Realizing that she was planning to accept the award, Fang Yun immediately became interested and was not in a hurry to accept the award for Qian Cheng. He leaned towards her and quietly waited for the results.
After praying silently, Sujiu opened her eyes. After taking a deep breath, she moved the mouse to point at the award-receiving option and clicked lightly. Then two prompts popped up in front of the screen——
"You got 80,000,000 pieces of silver."
"You got a manufacturing guide book."
"You got a hundred refined iron"
Seeing the three lines of prompts, Sujiu quickly clicked them with the mouse, then opened his backpack, ignoring the extra 80 million taels of silver, and looked at the manufacturing book under the expectant eyes of Fang Yun and Master Beast.
.
【Manufacturing Guide Book】
A book that records the manufacturing methods of various equipment and weapons.
[Type] Armor, level: 150
"Holy shit?!"
Seeing the type of this manufacturing book, Mr. Beast, who was watching on the other side, couldn't help blurting out a Chinese quintessence!
Advanced armor books are real hard currency in the game. After all, there are thousands of types of weapons, but armor is universal for male characters, and male characters in fantasy make up the majority, so the market demand has always been extremely strong.
Sujiu's 150 Armor Book can be said to be almost unique in the current stage of fantasy, because the previous 150 Armor Book has been used by Fang Yun himself.
"This thing... costs at least tens of thousands, right?"
After being surprised, Master Beast watched Su Jiu quickly lock the armor book and store it in the warehouse, with a look of envy and hatred on his face.
Although what he wanted most was the 150 Ax and Hammer Book, the 150 Armor also attracted him a lot.
It's a pity that although Sujiu is a girl in reality, she is the powerful chief of Huasheng Temple in the game. He wants to get this armor book from her, but Beast Master feels that he has used a thousand revenges to get the ax and hammer book.
Hope seems greater.
At this time, Su Jiu, who had always been as cold as an iceberg, also showed a rare smile, which was enough to show that the appearance of this 150 Armor Book not only made Master Beast and others look envious, but she herself also felt extremely happy.
After Su Jiu received the award, Liu Ximeng on the other side also completed receiving his award.
Compared to Sujiu, who directly drew the top armor book in one shot, Liu Ximeng's harvest was slightly inferior. What she received was a 150 ribbon book.
Manufacturing books such as whip ring belts have always been relatively unpopular. After all, these weapons are used by female characters, and the prices have always been relatively cheap. Fortunately, the level of 150 makes up for some shortcomings, and Liu Ximeng's character is also just right.
You can use streamers, but overall it's pretty good.
And then, after Liu Ximeng received her ribbon book, when it was Huang He's turn, this guy looked nervous. He closed his eyes lightly in anticipation of everyone, and then refused to open them.
Huang He didn't open his eyes, but the beast master didn't like him. He grabbed the mouse from his hand and opened the backpack to take a look. His old face suddenly dropped.
【Manufacturing Guide Book】
A book that records the manufacturing methods of various equipment and weapons.
[Type] Boots, Level: 150
"Your grandson is lucky!"
Looking at this newly released 150 shoes book, Beast Master, who thought Huang He was going to miss the mark, felt a little unhappy and muttered something.
Huang He quickly opened his eyes after hearing his muttering. When he saw that what he had received was the 150 shoes book he had dreamed of, he almost jumped up with excitement!
As a member of the feudal clan, Huang He's demand for other parts is actually not very great, but he only has very strict requirements for shoes.
After all, a few points of speed difference may determine whether he can make a quick shot during the game, and the chain reaction caused by this can be explained very clearly by Huang He, a veteran in the martial arts world.
Unexpectedly, this time following Fang Yun in the All-Star Game and winning the championship, not to mention receiving a bonus of 100,000, he actually received the shoe book he wanted most as a prop reward. At this time, Huang He was feeling refreshed, and his face
It was rare for Mr. Beast, who was so angry with him, not to argue with him.
Three consecutive team members received their rewards, and each seemed to be very satisfied with the manufacturing book they received. As the team leader, Fang Yun also felt a sense of relief, and then turned his attention to Master Beast.
The other three people had already finished collecting, and Master Beast had already controlled Qian Qiu and came to the side of the star game messenger. After Fang Yun helped him unlock the lock, Master Beast, who was still jumping up and down, now started to show his timidity.
"What about... Mr. Cheng, why don't you come first?"
Seeing everyone looking at him at this time, Master Beast felt like he was pushed to the edge of the cliff. He couldn't help but swallow the smear and asked Fang Yun with a smile.
"I have no problem, but what about them?"
Seeing that he still wanted to drag him into the water at this time, Fang Yundu laughed, lightly shrugged and pointed at Huang He and others who were gearing up next to him and said.
"Hurry up, you are so whimpering!"
Pushing Master Beast's shoulder hard, Huang He, who had just been ridiculed for a long time, now took charge of the matter. He didn't give Master Beast a chance to waste time and forced him to move the mouse to receive the reward.
Looking at the books and iron that were already lying in Qianqiu's backpack, Beast Master also knew that he would not be able to survive if he didn't read them, so he could only move his mouse to check them.
【Manufacturing Guide Book】
A book that records the manufacturing methods of various equipment and weapons.
[Type] Claw Thorn, Level: 150
"Well done!"
As the types of this manufacturing book were presented to everyone, Master Beast himself was stunned on the spot, while others, especially Huang He, clenched their fists, looking even worse than before when he received the 150 shoe book.
Excited!
"No...it's not..."
Seeing the overjoyed expressions of the people around him, the dull-looking Beast Master gradually regained his composure. After taking another look at the screen to confirm that what he had received was really a 150-claw book, his whole old face suddenly collapsed, with a sign of wanting to cry.
No tears.
"Well, receiving an award depends on your character. If your character is not good, nothing you say will matter."
Seeing that Master Beast had completely fallen into isolation, Fang Yun joked at first, and then said: "But it doesn't matter, now our team is quite experienced in surviving life and death tribulations. If you really want to fight, there will be plenty of opportunities, don't be discouraged."
Well!"
After saying that, seeing that this guy couldn't listen at all, Fang Yun could only give up and turned his eyes back to his screen.
Everyone else has already received their rewards, and now he is the only one in the team who has not received any.
Fortunately for Fang Yun, he doesn't really care about what he can get. After all, 150 manufacturing books are considered a rarity to others, but in his eyes, they are already rare and ordinary. Those who have personally crafted them are only 4 or 5.
Six or seventy-eight copies.
Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Fang Yun controlled Qian Cheng and quickly came to the star game envoy. He clicked on the dialogue to quickly receive the reward, and then opened his backpack to check the types of manufacturing books.
【Manufacturing Guide Book】
A book that records the manufacturing methods of various equipment and weapons.
[Type] Sword, Level: 150
"..."
"..."
"..."
As Fang Yun put the mouse on the manufacturing book, after seeing clearly the type of the book, everyone, including Fang Yun, was stunned for a moment!
