Although the competition arena is glamorous, the daily training of professional players is quite boring.
Among them, youth training camps that “lay the foundation” are the most important, which essentially turn people into “fighting machines.”
In the early days of the e-sports circle, the prerequisites for joining an active team were: reaction speed within 0.1 seconds, positioning error within 3 centimeters, and attack placement error within 1.5 centimeters.
In other words, use a program to generate a wooden figure in front, with a red dot located at the heart of the chest. You must draw your sword within 0.1 seconds and accurately stab the red dot at the heart, with an error of no more than 1.5 cm.
To reach this standard, it takes at least tens of thousands of hours of practice. The process in between is not happiness at all, but torture.
So the difference between e-sports players and professional gamers is that the former do not play games.
But work.
"I can't do it anymore!" After being knocked to the ground by another lion's tooth from Ask, Medea threw away her sword and fell limply to the ground, wailing, "I really don't have the strength.
I can’t fight anymore…”
With a clang, Asik's long sword was inserted into the ground in front of her: "If this is a real battlefield..."
"Then I'll die! Die!" Medea cried out in self-deprecation, "Can I die? Even if I die, I won't have the strength to move anymore! You are a human, you fucked me for half an hour, my
How can your body tolerate this?"
"Don't make dirty jokes." Asker's face darkened, "Isn't it just a few sparring sessions? And I always beat you with the back of my sword..."
"It's not a few times, it's hundreds of times, brother!" Medea burst into tears, "Your sword is thick and hard, and my weak body has been bruised all over by you! My whole body feels like I'm going to die.
Same!"
"I told you, don't tell dirty jokes!" Seeing the girls around him looking at them with strange expressions, Asker could only cough in embarrassment.
"Let's do this. I'll go out and see if there are any suitable people to recruit. You can help me take care of everyone's training first. Practice each of the eight tactics 1,000 times. No one can be left out."
"Can I use my psychic powers?" Medea asked.
"Okay." Ask thought for a moment, "But don't go too far."
"Okay." Medea nodded and activated the group telepathy. The girls around her immediately felt energetic, as if they had endless energy.
"Hey, Medea, are you initiating the hint?" Nora was the first to notice something was wrong. Because she originally didn't like these fighting and killing, but now she inexplicably ignited the fighting spirit to practice swordsmanship.
"Lend me the book and I'll go out for a while." Ask said to her.
"Oh." Nora took out "Absurd Dreams" from the bag on her waist and handed it back to Asker.
Spirituality unfolded, touching the door, and Asik quickly returned to the real plane. After leaving his ancestral home, he stood on the stone steps outside the door and began to make calculations in his mind.
There are currently two professions that need to be recruited, one is a long-range gunner, and the other is an arcane mage.
Relatively speaking, the team currently needs a long-range gunner, because the arcane mage is used to deal with monsters with high physical defense, and these monsters are in the minority after all. Medea, who has the flame I ability, can also temporarily serve as a mage.
Asker himself uses a pistol, which can only be used as a shooter at close range. The accuracy of the pistol is not enough when the distance is farther.
In present-day Constantinople, there are four missions in which there are potentially recruitable gunner NPCs: three of the NPCs are male and one NPC is female.
Judging from the perspective of moldability and future achievements, the only female gunner NPC is actually the best - this guy was killed by players as a wild BOSS during the initial public beta stage.
After Constantinople was captured by the Seljuq Empire, this guy was resurrected by a certain necromancer. Reborn as a banshee, she was renamed "Minerva", a name that belonged to the war goddess of ancient Solomon who punished evildoers.
However, players all respectfully call her "Minervanas" to pay tribute to Sylvanas in the famous game "World of Warcraft" in the last century.
In fact, Minervanas is much more powerful than Queen Xi, because Queen Xi uses a bow and arrow after all, so at least the shooting speed cannot be too exaggerated.
And Minervanas used an automatic rifle... In the official version No. 1, when the Seljuks besieged the province of Shires, Minervanas killed them in the Battle of Kythnos alone.
More than 3,000 players.
According to the players who participated in the battle, as soon as Minervanas appeared on the stage, gunshots were fired non-stop, and then the players fell down in rows like dominoes. All the players who were shot were
When he was shot in the head, one shot penetrated the skull, and there was no extra second bullet hole at all.
In the past, Asik might have been more willing to recruit other male gunner NPCs to balance the gender ratio in the team... When Sidrifa and Mia arrived, he gave up such an attempt.
Now the male-to-female ratio in the team has reached an exaggerated 1:6! Even if the remaining two professions accept men, the number of female NPCs will still be doubled, which will not help at all.
Forget it, let’s choose this Minervanas.
He remembered that Minervanas' mission in his previous life was the day after the two highnesses ascended the throne, that is, today.
So Asker took the subway to Kinmen Subway Station and got off based on his memory of the Forum Battle Report he had read in his previous life.
After walking a few hundred meters toward the Seventh Mountain, I soon saw that the road that originally went up the mountain had been cordoned off by police officers from the Constantinople Police Department. Three policemen stood in front of the cordon, alert.
He looked at the passers-by nearby.
"Hey! You can't go any further!" After noticing Aske's approach, a policeman immediately warned.
"What happened, officer?" Ask asked casually.
"It's okay." Another policeman said, "There is an underage girl who killed a nobleman with a gun and is now running around in the mountains. Our colleagues are chasing her inside. If someone enters rashly...will they?
So happy."
"Killed a noble?" Ask raised his eyebrows, "I think the victim's family would be willing to pay a large sum of money."
"Isn't it?" the policeman laughed, "50 pounds, the bounty offered by the nobleman's father, so many mercenaries have already entered."
"Aren't you going to stop me?" Aske asked.
"Block? Of course." The policeman sighed, "But the Seventh Mountain is so big, we can't surround the entire mountain with a blockade. Now, if you don't plan to break into our defense line, you can turn around and go back
Already."
Ask turned around and went in a different direction into the mountains. As the policeman said just now, they can only block the main road, but if the player wants to get into the grass, they will definitely not be able to stop him.
Through the dense grass, Aske quickly found a path. After continuing to trek for about half an hour, he finally found a torn cloth belt on the bushes beside the mound.
A certain player who came here in the previous life happened to have a dog in the game. So with the help of the sensitive sense of smell of the dog's nose, this player was the first to find Minervanas who had fled into the mountains, and was killed on the spot without any accident.
Even though she was still a living underage girl, Minervanas still showed extremely high shooting talent. According to the player's self-report, his head was shot on the spot and he didn't even have time to take a screenshot.
However, Minervanas did not know the player's rebirth function, so this act of silence was completely meaningless. Her coordinates were soon released on the forum, and in the end she was piled alive by the players who came after hearing the news.
.
Asker continued to move forward, taking the wrong path twice in the middle. Fortunately, he finally recognized it and went around. Between a few trees, he found the bodies of three policemen, with guns in their hands that were too late to shoot.
The magazines of police firearms are all full.
They were all bullets between the eyebrows, killing each other with one blow. This accuracy...Asker was amazed. It was simply unimaginable that a level 0 girl with absolutely no extraordinary abilities could do it. If there were NPC skill levels in the game system, the secret would be
Nirvanas' spear skills must be at full level.
Not far from the body, he saw a few small shoe prints, which were indeed left by the little girl. Apparently Minervanas did not know how to eliminate the traces at this time, so Asik followed the traces and walked forward again.
Ten minutes later, I saw the bodies of two more mercenaries. They were still shot between the eyebrows and killed with one shot.
In the subsequent exploration, the corpses that appeared one after another were like road signs, indicating the location of the BOSS to Asker at intervals. When he counted the twenty-seventh corpse, he knew in his heart that the opponent was running out of bullets.
.
After all, the little girl is still a little immature. She doesn't know how long one magazine can last when searching for bullets from corpses.
Arriving at the edge of a mountain stream, Asker saw the red-stained stream flowing down from the upper reaches, as if someone was cleaning a wound not far away. He pulled out his long sword, walked around the corner, and suddenly swung his sword upwards rapidly.
With a ding sound, he deflected the bullet aimed at his eyebrow.
Asker rushed forward at full speed and saw a petite figure sitting by the stream, holding a gun in both hands and aiming steadily at this direction, his calm eyes focused and without any distracting thoughts.
There was another gunshot, and Asik raised his long sword and split the bullets fired at him again. He was already at level 2, and his physical strength could completely keep up with the speed of pistol bullets.
At the third gunshot, Asker made an eagle cut and once again split the bullet cleanly into two halves. Three consecutive shots missed. There was no anxiety or fear on the little girl's face. She just calmly turned the muzzle of the gun and shot it at herself.
stuffed it into his mouth.
The next second, the pistol was knocked away by the long sword, spinning and falling into the stream in the distance. Asker's long sword was pressed against the opponent's delicate throat, and she was forced to raise her head, her eyes still emotionless.
, just stared at Aske calmly.
"Do you really want to die?" Ask asked calmly.
The little girl stared straight at him, her numb expression finally loosened: "If you don't want to die...what can I do?"
"You can be a mercenary with me." Asker put away his sword, "With your marksmanship, you will have a bright future."
The little girl was silent for a long time and said: "I killed the noble."
"What's your name?" Asked.
"Miel."
"Listen, Honey." Ask said, "I have a good place. It's safe. No one can find it, neither the police nor the nobility's lackeys. You don't have to worry about death threats there. You just need to join me."
Team, work for me, and you can enter that place and receive asylum."
He took out a contract from his bag and handed it to the other party: "Sign it."
The little girl took the contract and frowned slightly - Asik had just used his long sword to knock away her pistol, and the force of the release broke her finger bones. Although there was a sharp pain like a cone in her index finger.
, however, she still endured the pain and read page after page.
She is a naturally calm shooter. Asik observed her every move and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Her name ends in "er" or "er" (-el), which is a typical half-elf naming feature.
Just by looking at her appearance, you can tell that Mi'er has half-elf blood. Her hair is light pink, her pupils are emerald green, her facial features are delicate and delicate, her ears are pointed at the top, and her skin is so smooth that it's almost invisible.
Pores and downy hair are obviously not characteristics that purebred humans can have.
Just because she was beaten and fled in the mountains for a long time, she looked extremely embarrassed at this time.
His hair was disheveled, his cheeks were dirty, his right eye was black and blue from being beaten, the left corner of his mouth was bloodshot and red and swollen, his clothes had been torn open by small branches, and pieces of cloth were clinging to the wounds.
Stained with dirty blood, mud and dust, it was impossible not to get infected.
After signing the contract and pressing his fingerprints, Asker rolled up the contract with his left hand, held Mi'er's arm with his right hand, stretched his spirituality to "Absurd Dream" behind his waist, and the two quickly disappeared from where they were.
Forty minutes later, the police arrived and saw only a small pool of blood on the rocky beach by the stream.
