This minute was the most difficult minute for Xia Miaomiao.
It was as long as an hour.
She didn't even remember how she got through it in the end. She was so dizzy that she was hiding and running based on instinct. In the end, her physical strength was drained. She relied on her huge willpower to cooperate with her teammates and successfully suppressed the hatred of the BOSS.
He handed it over, then lay down on the ground, staring at the dome of the copy without focus.
This gold medal... is so damn difficult!
"Destiny is still fate!
"
Xia Miaomiao's vision was blurred, as if through thick glass, the kobold chief fell, and there was a big bang.
[Ding, congratulations on getting the certificate of bravery]
The system prompts her spirit to relax, she was relieved in one breath, and she fell asleep unable to hold on any longer.
In reality, Xia Miaomiao didn't wake up at all.
Two minutes later, Du Shiyu went offline. He was also exhausted. He only struggled to stretch out half of his body from the game room. He saw that his best friend's game room showed offline status before lying back down.
This is 10 hours of sleep.
In the dead of night, an owl flew from nowhere and landed on the window sill of the apartment, staring into the dim interior through the half-open window screen.
The two game barns are like two shrubs. The faint light shines through the gaps in the curtains, giving them an indescribable mysterious color.
The shadow of the owl is like an uninvited ghost, its wings spread out, enclosing the two playhouses within the shadow of the wings.
Everything seemed to have stopped, including light, including time. In the lost lake, Du Shiyu felt as if someone was looking at her. The serious gaze was like a huge bright searchlight, making her uncomfortable, at a loss, and making her feel uncomfortable.
She sat up irritably and shouted: "Who!"
The game cabinet automatically slid open, leaving nothing on the windowsill. The city, which had been sweltering all day, was immersed in the cool breeze of late night.
The window screen blown open by the breeze was like the long skirt of an ancient lady, so ethereal and slow in her eyes.
Only then did she realize the huge difference.
Her delicate brows were knitted together, and the muscles and joints on her body felt a burst of pain whenever she moved a little bit... Which part is different, which part is different?
The answer seems to be right in front of me, but there is something behind it, and I can't grasp it no matter what.
Before her best friend woke up, Du Shiyu heard a slight movement from the game barn, as if a mouse was crawling, rustling, and gnawing on something.
There is no light in the room, but you can see everything clearly. It's not a 'seeing', but an indescribable...feeling?
Including the texture of the window screen, the sound of water flowing in the water pipe - swish, swish.
Tick!
The sound was particularly loud. My body didn't move. It was as if a pair of eyes opened in the back of my head and I saw a drop of water dripping from the bathroom faucet.
ah!
Du Shiyu finally caught 'it'.
It's a feeling, a touch, an incredible spiritual touch that spreads from the center of the eyebrows.
What's going on?
She was not surprised, but frightened.
"Miao Miao, Miao Miao!"
As soon as Du Shiyu's body moved, the joints in each part of the body seemed to have not moved for a long time, making creaking noises. But soon, this uncomfortable feeling disappeared, replaced by abundant energy, and his hands and feet felt solid as never before.
feel.
But she had no intention of understanding this. She took a few steps to Xia Miaomiao's game barn and patted the transparent lid in an attempt to wake up her best friend.
Xia Miaomiao didn't respond, and she couldn't even see the rise and fall of her chest. Du Shiyu was shocked and quickly entered the emergency password on the game compartment and opened the lid.
"Miaomiao? Miaomiao, don't scare me!"
An hour later, the ambulance stopped downstairs and emergency personnel rushed in behind her.
"There is a pulse, but it's very weak."
"What did she do and what symptoms did she have beforehand?"
Du Shiyu said with tears in her eyes, "We are players. We went offline a few hours ago and had a good sleep."
"Player?" The doctor understood everything when he saw the game warehouse. "How long have you been playing?"
Du Shiyu: "Today, what's the date today?"
The doctor rolled his eyes and the nurse said, "July 8th at 1 o'clock in the morning."
"ah!?"
"How long exactly?"
"It's been two days!" Du Shiyu was about to cry.
"Be precise."
"About 48 hours."
"Send to the hospital, quickly!"
When the stretcher came in, the doctor saw that Du Shiyu was still stunned and said, "Come here and help!"
"Ah, oh..."
As soon as she lifted her best friend's legs, Xia Miaomiao woke up: "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
"Miaomiao, you scared me to death!"
…
Afterwards, whatever doctors and nurses said, Xia Miaomiao just didn't agree to go to the hospital. They made a fuss for half an hour and paid an ambulance fee before sending them away.
"You weren't even breathing just now. I thought... you scared me to death."
"Well, well!" Xia Miaomiao was a little absent-minded.
Du Shiyu didn't notice: "Are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable there?"
"No, I'm just very hungry," Xia Miaomiao said, touching her belly.
Du Shiyu also felt very hungry. She had never been so hungry before. "I'm going to cook. If you feel uncomfortable, call me."
She calmed down in the kitchen and recalled the feeling she had when she first woke up. Strangely, it was normal now, as if it was just an illusion.
"It seems like we really need to control our gaming time. If this continues, I will go crazy."
"Is Xiaoyu okay? I'm starving to death."
"Come on, wait a minute!"
"I feel like I could eat a cow"
The refrigerator is filled with prepared ingredients bought from the supermarket, washed and cut. Even the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are packed in packaging bags. You only need to follow the instructions on the packaging to make a pot of delicious food.
Delicious food is coming.
This fool-proof cooking method specially designed for players is very popular. It doesn’t take long before a hot spicy pot is freshly baked.
"Eat, eat!"
"Wow, it's really, really delicious. Xiaoyu, your cooking skills have improved a lot."
"Slow down."
"By the way, what did the BOSS explode in the end?"
"A wristband and a helmet all need to be appraised."
"Wow, wow, I hope it's a blue outfit. It would be great if it's a purple outfit."
"You are so beautiful that you are smiling in green clothes."
"Eat quickly, come online soon after you eat it... Chunshui and the others should be online now, right?"
"I know that."
"By the way, I haven't told you yet, haha, I have learned a skill."
"Is it those arrows you shot in succession at the end?"
"Well, the chain of arrows only has a 15-second cooldown, hahaha..."
"Are you... really okay?"
"What's the matter? You said just now, no, you see I'm not very good."
"No feeling?"
"How do you want to feel... Hey, it's so hot, eat it quickly, eat it quickly."
It seems like a real illusion.
Du Shiyu then put down his worries.
After eating, both of them were very energetic, but it was still dark outside, and they didn't know what they had just eaten. Day and night were reversed, and time and biological clocks were messed up. It must be very harmful to the body.
But the two of them couldn't feel even the slightest discomfort in this regard. They couldn't wait to lie down in the game room and put on the game helmets. After a while, there was no sound in the room.
Landing in Canaan, the resurrection point of Novice Village No. 88, Xia Miaomiao couldn't wait to step out of the white light online. She was greeted by the hustle and bustle that seemed to have substance, and the ubiquitous emotional appeal suddenly surrounded her. In reality,
The memory will disappear immediately.
LV6.
Level 5 experience is already full. After clearing the level, the level cap will be lifted and you will be promoted to a level immediately.
Looking at the ranking list again, all level 6 players have been ranked at the end of the page. Xia Miaomiao couldn't even find her name on it.
But looking at the entire Novice Village, except for her and Du Shiyu, there are still no level 6 players. They are all level 4 or 5.
There are people doing everything in the city, NPPC, players and players, interacting, arguing, laughing, flattering, fighting, distressed, angry...
Xia Miaomiao: "Where is the spring water? Where is the spring water?"
Du Shiyu: "I added him as a friend but there was no response. It seems that he is not online."
Xia Miaomiao: "What happened? It's not online now?"
Du Shiyu: "Huaguo Mountain and Truth are not here either."
Xia Miaomiao: "Ah, aren't they all employed?"
Du Shiyu: "Then let's do the inauguration mission too, right?"
Xia Miaomiao: "Yeah!"
The two held hands and happily went to find the job NPC.
The title of LV6 has earned them a lot of envious looks. If they can pass the level now, it will be a gold medal.
What the gold medal represents, if it wasn't so clear before, is now impressive to almost everyone.
The gold medal belongs to a high-level player, either a wealthy person who is not short of money, or a pervert with high operation awareness, and there is a high probability that it is both.
Xia Miaomiao turned into a ranger, and Du Shiyu turned into a mage. The two waved goodbye and ran towards their respective inauguration NPCs.
"...Oh, what is this, a certificate of bravery? Young rebel, your excellence has exceeded my expectations, but becoming a professional is not so easy..."
The mage's second job is to meditate, realize and sense the existence of magic. This is naturally not a problem for Du Shiyu, who has already mastered it in the previous few tests.
I learned basic meditation and was transported to a small dark room by the inauguration NPC. All interference from the outside world was blocked, and I sat down cross-legged in darkness.
Let your thoughts and consciousness be empty, don't think about anything, don't deliberately pursue anything, let yourself enter a state of sleep but not sleep, half faith but not faith, and naturally enter a special breathing rhythm.
At a certain moment, an invisible 'eye' opened, and she 'saw' a colorful world, a world composed of countless small particles of color.
These small particles are extremely tiny and extremely active. They are still them, surrounding Du Shiyu, and entering Du Shiyu's body with his breathing.
[Ding, congratulations on opening your magic value]
[Ding, congratulations on learning the basic meditation method]
[Ding, the road to employment—Mage (2) mission completed]
Very easy.
but……
This feeling, as if, seems to be in reality...
Ah, no, that is an illusion. How could it happen in reality? It must be because the game time is too long and the cognition is confused. It must be.
On the other side, Xia Miaomiao is also going very smoothly.
"...The jungle wanderer is the darling of nature, the spirit of the forest and wilderness, and the friend of plants and animals. Go ahead and come to me after you get the certificate of 'Proficiency in Archery'."
"...Young rebel, I am deeply impressed by your mobility and talent. 'Mastery of Archery' is not difficult for you, but to become a free and powerful ranger, Archery Mastery is not difficult for you."
It’s just the basics, are you interested in taking on more difficult tests?”
"...Very good, young people should be as motivated as you. Go to the Misty Jungle (14) and bring back a pair of flamingo feathers."
"...Let's see, let's see, flamingos are hard to deal with, right? Haha...a small sapling. You have to understand that becoming an animal friend is not that simple. You still have a long way to go in the future.
, but now you have passed the test, but there is still one last test, do you accept it?"
"...Do you know the Forest Goddess Methius Hall? Ranger is the profession that His Highness loves. You are a good match, you know? Forests, fields, animals, plants... The Temple of the Forest Goddess has many exclusive and powerful features.
The ranger skills cannot be learned elsewhere. If you are interested, go to the temple of the Forest Goddess and talk to the priest Al, he will give you detailed instructions."
After running back and forth for a whole day, Du Shiyu and Xia Miaomiao came together from morning to night. There was no change in Novice Village. Torches were lit everywhere late at night, and there were bustling players everywhere, coming in and out.
The blacksmith shop is still the most lively place, and various ores still account for the largest amount of item transactions. Many newbies have taken off their novice uniforms by mining, have money in their pockets, and have found their own rhythm and skills.
The single-plank bridge is still crowded, so crowded that most people are intimidated, but more and more players are passing through this single-plank bridge. There are more pages classified by profession on the ranking list. There are 10 pages for mages and 50 people per page.
, currently only 6 pages are filled, that is, less than 300 mages have completed their inauguration.
There are more jungle wanderers, and the queue has already reached 500 or more.
"It's so troublesome to take office this time. I've already made three trips. How about going to the temple of the Forest Goddess? How about the mage?"
"Fortunately, I already know how to meditate. I also want to go to some temple... Let me take a look and let me choose one."
"Ah, I only have the forest goddess. Why, the mage can choose whatever he wants?"
"I don't know, then I'll go to the Forest Goddess too."
The temple of the Forest Goddess looks like a small house from the outside, but when you walk inside, the space becomes very large, with giant columns, a magnificent dome, and a smiling and intelligent NPC standing on the steps that are half a person tall.
Pastor Al.
"I'm so glad to see you, children. You are growing up very fast, but in the most important heart, you are still blank."
"Do you know the forest? Or nature?"
“Great insights!”
"Then do you know our Lord, the master of forests and wilderness, the master of animals and plants, and the representative of nature, His Highness Michus Hall?"
"My Lord was born in..." Balabala, Xia Miaomiao and Du Shiyu fell drowsy after hearing this.
[Ding, you have become a pan-believer of Michus Hall, the goddess of forest and wilderness, and opened the faith module.]
[Ding, the road to employment—Mage (3) mission completed]
"It's finally over!" Xia Miaomiao pulled Du Shiyu and left. The wise NPC was still chattering endlessly behind, "I'm taking office, get your cloak!"
"We are gold medals!" Du Shiyu also smiled happily.
"Gold medal, gold medal, high fun, high fun!" Xia Miaomiao laughed and danced.
