Six hours after the server was launched, Xie Xiaomeng reached level 2.
This kind of progress is acceptable even for veteran players, let alone newbies.
The reason is naturally because I have a strong sister.
As the last demonized goblin fell, a small monster camp was cleared. The upgraded white light made Xie Xiaomeng overjoyed, but the third-level magical girl Zhu Zhuangzhuang was very dissatisfied.
"What are you doing, not giving me any equipment for several hours?"
"Sister Zhuangzhuang, is this explosion rate abnormal?"
“It’s lower than the fourth test”
"ah?"
"The shit-eating dog planner has lost his conscience!"
Xie Xiaomeng didn’t have the experience of the previous tests, so she felt pretty good. Although she didn’t explode any equipment, she still filled up half of the space in the system backpack with copper coins, potions, bandages, materials, etc. She went back to buy them and the money was already paid.
It’s not much less than Aunt Xue’s hard work selling pancakes. You have to know that this service has just started.
Of course, the main reason is that someone takes it. If she were alone, she would definitely not gain so much.
But how can I put it, this level has been raised, but Xie Xiaomeng feels that there is not much progress.
There was almost no need for her to do anything during the whole process, only when it was time to harvest the spoils at the end, it was her turn.
Without any instructions from her thigh, she consciously used her dagger to chop off the claws, teeth, and things inside the eyes of the demonized goblin. She didn't dare to look at them before, but now she can do it without changing her expression.
"No more brushing, I'm going back."
"Are you going back now?" There were still two hours of game time, and Xie Xiaomeng was a little reluctant.
"I'm doing this for your own good."
"What's wrong?"
"You are at level 2. Now I am asking you to kill a level 2 monster alone. Do you feel confident about it?"
"……No!"
"Look, Canaan is different from a fool's game that uses the mouse and keyboard. Level is one aspect, and awareness, experience and skills are another aspect. It's useless if the level goes up. You still have to improve your skills and awareness, otherwise you'll just be there in the future.
You can become a casual lifestyle player...don’t blame me for not reminding you.”
"Ah, how can I make up for it by killing monsters by myself?"
"In the training camp, if you are preparing to take up a melee occupation, choose the warrior training camp. If you are preparing for a long-range occupation, choose an archer or something like that... Didn't you say that your bow and arrow always miss the target? You can solve it after practicing in the training camp.
"
"It's so troublesome. It didn't seem like this before?"
"The test has been changed this time. The previous remote professions had system corrections and soul locking, but this time they are gone."
"Is it becoming more and more hardcore?"
"Well, for the rest of the game time, you can go to the training camp to make up for this aspect. You can have unlimited farming in it, which is much faster than farming monsters."
"Thank you, Sister Zhuangzhuang."
After a few hours of getting along, the distance between the two peers has been greatly shortened. The other person is so sincerely thinking about himself, and the words "Sister Zhuangzhuang" are sincere.
The journey back is easier than when we came here. As expected, the wild monsters that have been cleaned up along the way will no longer be refreshed. Newcomers will not be able to enjoy such resources. Fast hands will have them, but slow hands will not. Maybe in the future, there will be no monsters in the wild area.
What’s left is replaced by villages, towns or even countries established by players and NPCs?
Regarding this point, Hanhu has already mentioned it on the official website. In the future, various battlefields, dungeons, and large and small mission scenes will be the main ways to obtain experience and props. The game area, especially the wild area, will gradually be developed to accommodate more
Many players settled in.
It won't work like this. Millions of players and tourists are all pouring in. The cities and novice villages provided by the system cannot accommodate them anyway. Even if they can be accommodated, it can't be done like this. It's better to leave it to the players to play freely.
, it is better to build the so-called second world and spiritual home from scratch on a piece of white land.
Although the magical girl Zhu Zhuangzhuang is not old, she has the consciousness of a big sister. The experience of similar training camp is that she knows everything and talks about it. She explains various common sense and taboos in the game along the way, which has benefited Xie Xiaomeng a lot.
, compliment each other from time to time, satisfy each other's vanity, and get along very harmoniously.
On the way, I met many old players starting or returning, ranging from one person to several people. There were very few new players with them, and everyone was in a hurry, as if someone was chasing behind them.
"Wow, some people are already at level 4!"
Unexpectedly, I saw an old player with LV4 title returning, swaggering all the way through the city, and everyone looking at him as he passed by.
"Oh, show off!"
Zhu Zhuangzhuang's tone was sour, and the sudden sense of urgency made her no longer interested in chatting, "Hurry up."
"oh!"
After that, the two of them hurried on their way and took more than half an hour to return to the vicinity of Xinshou Village.
This is the opening day of the server. There are still many wild monsters near Novice Village. If I go to the wild to spawn monsters in the future, I can’t go there on the same day and return the same day.
When I went there, there was no one in the spawn area for level 4 and level 5 monsters. When I came back, people were already coming and going, all of them were old players. I actually saw a perverted level 5 monster. How did he get promoted?
Zhu Zhuangzhuang was speechless. She couldn't figure out how someone could be so fast.
Is there any trick that others don’t know?
But this time the files were deleted. The game map has changed drastically. Are there any unique secrets?
I thought it must be an exception, but when I looked at the level ranking list (Bei Gaoyang didn't even know what Xiao Ai had done), the first few pages of the display were filled with all the level 5 lists.
Level 3 Zhu Zhuanggang was shocked and regretted his decision to bring someone with him for the first time. Xie Xiaomeng wisely shut up and did not want to get into trouble at this time.
"Ah, my sister-in-law is almost level 5!?"
"Sister-in-law?"
"Damn it, you didn't take me with you!"
Zhu Zhuangzhuang found a familiar name after more than a dozen pages. He jumped up excitedly. After looking at the location of Novice Village shown at the back, he gave up the plan of launching an army to investigate in frustration.
It is not possible to open world and private chat channels before level 5. There are only nearby channels and friend channels with distance restrictions. Thousand-mile voice transmission is impossible...it is another new rule of the fifth test.
What a stupid ass!
In this test, the old players found it inconvenient not only at one point or two, but they all complained that the more changes they made, the more they went back. What is Canaan Company doing? If it doesn’t make players feel uncomfortable for a day, then they don’t know what to do, right?
The two returned to Novice Village and saw mostly newbies. At this time, most of the people had not yet entered the state of mind. They were arguing, chatting, tinkering, and tinkering with things that no one knew what they were doing. There were also some partygoers.
Leisure party, social party, impractical party to start doing business now, etc.
There are all kinds of things and it’s really lively.
"I bought something and went to the refresh area to upgrade it. What about you?"
"I...I'm going to training camp!"
"Okay, keep in touch in the future."
It seemed that Zhu Zhuangzhuang was indeed in a hurry. After saying goodbye in a hurry, he went to hand over the task, bought supplies, and then hurriedly went to the refresh area to level up.
Xie Xiaomeng felt regretful that the good times under someone's guidance ended so quickly. Thinking back to Zhu Zhuangzhuang's warning to him, he looked around blankly, not knowing where the NPCs from the archery training camp were.
By the time she found the place, there was less than an hour left in the game. She would be very satisfied if she could reach level 2. This last hour was pure profit.
Talk to the NPC in the training camp and find an NPC who is a 'senior archery master' to run errands for him.
"... Archery is a skill that tests talent, but if you are an elf, there is no problem. Go ahead and take my answer with you."
After getting the token, go back to find the NPC in the training camp. After completing this prerequisite task, you will be transported to the training space.
A vast and flat square with many connected shooting positions and targets, just like a shooting range.
There are already many people practicing there.
It is divided into fixed target and moving target. Novices will naturally start with the fixed target.
Xie Xiaomeng eagerly stood in a shooting position, and a virtual turntable selection box appeared in front of her, allowing her to choose a variety of bows and arrows.
Soft bow, hard bow, short bow, long bow, riding bow, walking bow... there are many things to pay attention to, and there are a lot of them according to the material quality, and the most advanced one is the magic bow.
Newbies naturally start from the simplest.
This is a system function. The NPC refreshed on the shooting platform and said to her expressionlessly, "10 meters of fixed target, all 10 shots are qualified."
That's it?
No one teaches?
Xie Xiaomeng cursed in her stomach, picked up a training bow that was not much different from a novice's bow, put the arrow on it, pulled it apart, aimed at the fixed target 10 meters away, and shot out at a three-point line.
Crooked!
She was a little frustrated because she couldn't even hit the target 10 meters away. Didn't she have any talent?
Correcting the mistake just now, I shot another arrow. This time it was closer to the target, but it still missed.
After repeated adjustments, I finally hit the target when I pulled the bowstring for the seventh time, but it was still far from the fist-sized bullseye.
I thought I had found the feeling this time, but the next arrow missed the target again.
ah!
Do we also need to consider wind speed?
Just when she was full of frustration and anxiety, the functional archery instructor spoke, "You have to treat the bow and arrow as a part of your body, clearly tell it your target, and aim with keen sense. In addition to the target,
, with no distractions..."
What the hell kind of teaching is this.
What about skills?
Shouldn't it be three points and one line or something?
In fact, she made a mistake. Archery is not aiming with a gun, and the trajectory of an arrow lost in flight is not a straight line. She has never had similar experience in reality, and has no knowledge of archery, so she took a detour for granted.
.
But even if you ignore this detour, a real archery master who teaches such idealistic teachings will mislead his students.
Of course, there are also advantages, that is, it is a blank sheet of paper. There is no need to correct the habits and mistakes developed in reality. You can do whatever the instructor says.
How do you feel that the bow and arrow are part of your body?
For the first time, Xie Xiaomeng looked at the bow in her hand seriously, touched the wooden pattern on it, felt its cold temperature, and plucked the bowstring with her fingers to feel its tension and tightness.
This should be a very ordinary bow. The surface has a glaze color that has been worn for a long time, and the bowstring has some burrs. It looks like an old man in his twilight years, sitting alone under the dim sunset, desolate and ending.
A magical and fantasy scene happened.
Xie Xiaomeng suddenly found that the bow in his hand had become much lighter. Holding it in his hand, it was as if one hand was holding another hand. Although he could not extend the feeling to the inside of the bow's texture, he did have a vague intuition.
It seems that it is no longer a dead thing, but has its own indifferent 'emotions' talking to itself.
Following this 'confidence', she took an arrow and missed it, without looking at the target ten meters away. She bent the bow, loosened the string, and the arrow flew out with a whoosh, and the next moment it hit the bullseye 10 meters away.
On the top, the tail wing vibrates very rhythmically.
Xie Xiaomeng was stunned, then looked at the bow in his hand, and the feeling disappeared again.
"Hit the target, the number of passes is 1/10"
She had no time to pay attention to the NPC instructor's prompts. She tried to recall how everything happened just now. It seemed like... yes, that's it. It cannot be regarded as a dead object, but based on its characteristics, material, status and other details, it is personified.
change……
The second time the feeling was even clearer than the first time. The bow seemed to have really become a part of her body. She made various movements freely and elegantly, raising the bow upwards and opening the bow sideways.
Jump to start work... Self-taught without a teacher, it is extremely fantasy.
A newcomer who has never had a bow and arrow foundation has managed to perform difficult movements that many people may not be able to do even after practicing for a long time. Bow bending and building is as simple as eating and drinking, effortless and natural.
"Hit the target, the number of passes is 10/10"
Seeing the arrows on the bullseye 10 meters away, Xie Xiaomeng happily waved his fist. Compared with his clumsiness when shooting the skeleton, he was completely different.
"20-meter fixed target, 10 hits qualified!"
At a distance of 20 meters, the 'old guy' in his hand was a little weak. Xie Xiaomeng reluctantly handed it back to the system and chose another bow that was slightly harder.
This bow is much 'younger', the wood texture is denser, and the bow string is made of the entire sinew of an unknown animal. It has a graceful arc when held in the hand, about one meter long, in order to thank Xiaomeng's 4
With some strength, the full bow is still a bit difficult.
The attribute points for upgrading to level 2 have not been added yet, so now I have to take some out and add them to the strength attribute.
It's much easier to pull it apart again.
Just like last time, carefully observe and touch the thing in your hand, trying to build up your imagination about it.
What kind of bow is this? Its wooden pattern should not be a commodity, but should be some kind of very precious and famous material. It has a coldness and hardness when exposed to metal, which makes it look a little aloof.
It is not young, as can be seen from the glaze color on the bow. I don’t know how many people have held it, how many accurate arrows it shot, and how many difficult opponents it hit...
When that feeling reappeared, Xie Xiaomeng smiled slightly, bent the bow and arrowed in one go, and the arrow missed and hit the target as expected.
…
The remaining hour was spent practicing with fixed targets of 20 meters, 30 meters, 40 meters and 50 meters.
This kind of practice method is not boring at all. The more you immerse yourself in it, the more indescribable fun you will have. As your archery skills improve, a sense of accomplishment arises spontaneously. This is being promoted passively by others.
Level 2 is far out of reach.
The fixed target is just the entry point, the moving target is the standard for advancement, the moving position, the moving target is the qualified ruler, what is more difficult is the blind shooting and heart shooting at the obstacle position, and even the subsequent magic bow practice.
The elusive magic bow becomes a part of the body and can be used freely.
In short, archery is simple and easy, as the NPC archery master said, it is a skill that extremely tests talent. It is difficult to say, and it is completely different from archery in reality. It is more idealistic, more fantasy, and more...
