Chapter 82 The fourth level of Qi training, the flower picker
"Sword seals demons?"
Makino was slightly startled, "I have heard of the game Sword and Demon Sealing Record. How could it be possible that it was remade and integrated? But why haven't I heard of it? What are the follow-up functions?"
This game is weird.
How do you start it without a power supply? How do you operate it without a handle and keyboard?
But when I think about it, I traveled through time because of this crappy game. If I understand it as a game system, it makes sense!
At this time, there is a strange pattern in the upper right corner of the interface.
The pattern showed the scene from the cutscene just now. Wang Mu's thoughts moved slightly, and the picture stretched, turning into a desolate, dark and simple picture covering the original bronze door.
Lines of writing slowly appeared on the screen:
[At the end of the dynasty, demons came to the world, the world was in chaos, and order was out of balance.]
[In a chaotic world, you can play the role of a wandering ranger, or a thief wandering the streets... a peddler, a pawn, a prostitute, a prostitute, a rich man, a beggar on the street... both high and low have their abilities.
】
[Kill demons and slay demons to establish a reputation, travel all over the world to show loyalty, and live happily in the city... Your game life will be defined by you. 】
Makino held his chin and thought about it for a few times, and many character templates to choose from appeared below.
only…
"They are all in darkness and not unlocked. How to choose?"
Makino continued reading and found that unlocking professions requires spending paradise coins?
I guess it’s the game’s built-in currency system?
Although not unlocked, it seems that some special abilities of these characters can be seen.
For example, ranger talents: justice, initial reputation, and friendliness.
Grand Thief: Fly over walls and walls, perform light skills, and unlock the ability to pick locks and steal.
Vendor: initially carries a variety of items.
…
Prostitutes in brothels: Wushan Yunyu, the art of intercourse.
…
Depending on the professional ability, the paradise coins required to unlock are also very different.
For example, Ranger can be unlocked with 50 Paradise Coins, while Grand Rogue requires 100.
Traffickers and pawns only cost 30.
The requirements for prostitutes in brothels and young men from wealthy families are relatively high, requiring 150.
"Why does this brothel prostitute want 150 paradise coins?"
Makino couldn't help complaining that it was just a magic trick, "When I get the paradise coins, I must try this character's gold content as soon as possible!"
"etc!"
Makino looked at the one at the back.
Street beggar (hidden).
"No, this poor beggar is still hiding?"
Makino shook his head, feeling that the game settings were unreasonable.
How can a mere beggar be hidden?
According to Makino's game experience, there is only one possibility. This beggar's character may have the strongest ability? Or may it have strong special characteristics? But right now, I can't choose.
[Tutorial level, only available for use by ‘fledgling demon sealer’]
Demon-sealers are Jianghu people whose mission is to kill demon-sealing demons. They have special abilities of ‘mind’s eye’ and ‘devil-conquering body’.
Mind's Eye: It allows you to detect the disguise of demons and detect the special aura flowing around you.
Demon-Conquering Body: The demon-sealed person has special power sealed in his body, which can be activated when fighting against demons.
Makino thought thoughtfully, isn't this a common detection ability in games?
After selecting this character, the screen zoomed in, showing a man in black clothes and a bamboo hat, with a long knife on his waist and a big sword tied to his back, standing slowly from the tower, ready to go.
It is somewhat similar to the opening animation.
This should be the official character of the game.
"It looks handsome." Makino glanced at it a few times, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.
It is indeed a tutorial level, all you need is a substitution.
Not to mention other characters, as the main character, the Demon Sealer, at least he feels handsome and makes people want to experience it.
"Selection successful, please enter the character name."
"Mu Xinghe."
"Tutorial level, the widow of Taiping City is opened, the mission level is opened, and you enter the game..."
After the selection was completed, I saw the demon sealer on the city tower suddenly jumping down from the air, and the space was torn and pulled. If I was a little dizzy, I felt a little uncomfortable looking at the 3D. Fortunately, it only took two or three seconds for the picture to freeze.
The square-shaped bluestone floor and the wooden structure of the ancient-style building cast the faint light and shadow in the water tank after the rain, showing the people coming and going. The shouts of vendors were mixed with the footsteps of pedestrians on the street.
Together, coupled with the noisy sound, that kind of ancient human smoke and fire rushes towards your face.
"Amazing…"
Makino looked at the game screen and was a little surprised, "The expression on everyone's face is different... They should all be captured using human body motion, right? It's just that there are so many, and the amount of work is too large."
With a thought, the Demon Sealer began to walk slowly on the street.
"But at this level, it can't be said to be a real body experience, right?"
"At most, it's the level of AR glasses..."
Makino controlled the character to walk to a street vendor selling steamed buns.
A message is displayed from the steamer tray:
[Meat Bun: Can restore a small amount of physical strength. 】
"classic…"
Makino continued to control the character to move forward, but before taking two steps, a frame popped up in the upper right corner.
【Please use your mind.】
Mind-set?
There are not many other functions in the game interface. There is only an eye pattern in the lower right corner, which must be the mind-eye ability.
After use, the originally colorful picture immediately turns into black and white.
There is only a pink vapor, like smoke curling up from a kitchen stove, scurrying around in the streets without a trace.
[If you find the demonic aura, please find the location of the demon and restrain it.]
It's interesting that Makino didn't look for it immediately, but wandered around the city.
This is a town called Taiping City. It's not big, but it's not small either.
There is everything that should be found in the city.
[Yelai Inn: You can rest and inquire about news.]
[Zuixianglou: It can restore your mood.]
[Shenquan Martial Arts Hall: You can learn secret martial arts.]
[Blacksmith shop:...]
…
After a brief walk around, basically all the facilities that Makino could want are there.
It's a pity that many houses have their doors closed, and it seems that you can't go in and out at will like in the game to rummage through the cabinets and pick up rubbish...
Some facilities are still inaccessible, such as the Shenquan Martial Arts Hall that day. If you want to enter, you will be stopped by the disciples outside the door.
"Who are you? Why do you come to my martial arts studio?"
[1. Stop talking nonsense, I’m here to compete. 】
【2. My martial arts skills are low, so I came here to learn from my master.】
[3, Stealing (unlocked ability)]
[4. I am a demon sealer. There is a demon in your martial arts hall. Please open the door quickly and let me in. 】
【5, Brother, you have a bag of coins that fell on the ground.】
【……】
Makino originally wanted to go in and take a look at this martial arts gym, but after careful consideration, he chose the fourth option based on his identity.
Then the face of the disciple outside the door suddenly changed, and he immediately called several disciples to surround him.
"You are deceiving everyone with your evil words! How can there be a demon in our Shenquan Martial Arts School? You look like a demon to me!"
After saying that, they started fighting directly. Each of these disciples punched and kicked, punching one after another, golden light flashed, and they didn't know what kind of martial arts they were using.
Two fists were no match for four hands. After taking care of the three martial arts disciples, the Demon Sealer fell to the ground and the screen went dark.
A large font appears.
"die."
【Would you like to read files?】
"..." Makino.
Is this demon's strength so low?
Can't you defeat just a few martial arts disciples?
"Damn, I am also an immortal cultivator at the first level of Qi training?"
"If this character were myself...well...I still can't beat him, but I can just run away, right?"
Having said that, Makino thinks this game is quite interesting.
So, he loaded the file again and selected the remaining options.
The first one started to fight directly, and he couldn't even beat him.
The second one requires a letter of recommendation. If there is no letter of recommendation, they will be expelled and they will not take action.
The fifth one is interesting. After the disciple picks up the coins, he will say: I just dropped so few coins? Then he will drive him away, but he will prompt the martial arts school to have a friendly level of 1, which means that if he has enough money, he can enter.
In fact, the fourth option should be possible. It should be just that you don't have enough reputation. Although you are a demon sealer, you have no reputation, so people don't believe what you say.
I thought since it was a tutorial, it would be better to follow the prompts.
After loading the file again, Makino followed the information prompts and used his mind's eye ability to follow the pink breath and turn left and right until he came to the door of a compound.
When I looked up, I saw two words engraved on the plaque on the beam.
【Shen Mansion】
"It seems that this is where the demon is hiding." Makino thought thoughtfully.
[Already know the location of the demon, find a way to enter Shen's mansion and look for the lurking demon.]
Makino pondered, looked around, and controlled the character to walk over.
There are two servants and a butler in front of the door.
"Excuse me, who are you?" the housekeeper asked.
[1. I am a demon sealer. Seeing the demonic aura in your Shen Mansion, I came here to seal the demons and eliminate them. 】
【2, Uncle, I am your long-lost son.】
【3. Stealing (unlocked ability).】
【4. The one who delivers food.】
【5,…】
Looking at these options, Makino frowned slightly.
It doesn't feel right.
The first option is the same as the previous one in the martial arts school. There is a high probability that you will be beaten with a stick.
The second item is that I don’t look like my parents, nor are I friendly, so I can’t be fooled.
If you are a hawker and have your own items with you, you might be able to choose the fourth option.
Makino chose to leave, and then looked around Shen's house. When he was in the backyard, he found other options.
[Infiltration (Insufficient Qinggong)]
Makino tried to forcefully sneak in, but the demon-sealing man jumped up and made a very obvious noise. The servants in Shen's mansion immediately noticed it and started beating him with sticks.
