Having found a new direction, Zhao Haiping became full of motivation again.
This kind of high degree of freedom and extremely realistic game is really unfriendly to novice players. After all, there is not even a task guide. After checking the information, you have to guess and verify by yourself.
Compared with those games where the mission objectives are clearly written out and the path can be found with one click, it is really very brain-burning.
But once you accept this setting and play it, you will find it very interesting!
Zhao Haiping entered the first stage of the trial again and chose the talent of licking blood from the edge of a knife.
This time he no longer only thought about survival as before, but rushed directly to the front and faced off against the Beidi barbarians!
Of course, the consequence of this is that people die faster. They used to die once every half an hour, but now they die once every two or three minutes.
But what does it matter?
Zhao Haiping knows very well that there is no point in surviving for a long time in the first stage. If you cannot get a big enough advantage in the early stage, you will definitely lose it in the second stage. Therefore, it is better to fight in the first stage.
Moreover, facing the enemy's blade directly like this, the talent of licking blood from the blade can be brought into full play, making him more and more familiar with this feeling of life and death struggle.
Combat skills are also rapidly improving.
In this way, Zhao Haiping died again and again and came back again and again.
…
At this time, Meng Yuan and Canshang were also paying attention to the performance of the players.
The ginseng merchant held a big chicken leg and said with some worry as he gnawed: "Nearly two days have passed, and there are still five days before the historical slice invasion. So far, no one has been able to clear the trial copy.
"Can they really succeed in the next five days?"
Meng Yuan was not too panicked: "You don't understand creatures like players.
"Although they look embarrassed now, they are still opening up wasteland after all.
"Once one player makes a breakthrough, the progress of all other players will advance rapidly. Players are a magical group that will upgrade collectively.
"At least now I have found two or three good seeds.
"By the way, why are you eating all the time?"
Meng Yuan looked at the big chicken drumstick in the hands of the ginseng merchant, and tears of dissatisfaction almost flowed from the corners of his mouth.
Shen Shang said: "It's not because the power of the orderer consumes too much, but my power is not as good as before!
"Originally, I was supposed to be the size of an adult, but now due to lack of strength, not only have I shrunk, but I also get hungry easily."
Meng Yuan asked: "Then when will you be full?"
Shang Shang sighed softly: "The food you see is all created by me to comfort myself. In fact, it has no effect. Only by devouring the power contained in the slices of history can I return to, and even surpass, the original food."
state.
"That's why I'm worried. Because the further back in time, the historical slices that intersect with reality will be closer to the ancient times, and the power of demons will become stronger and stronger. If we can't deal with the first historical slice smoothly, we can strengthen ourselves
If you don’t have enough strength, the battle in the future will only become more and more difficult, and there may even be no chance of winning.”
Meng Yuan nodded: "I understand. But don't worry too much, I trust these players."
The businessman also continued to look at the scene where the players were clearing the level.
"You just said there are two or three promising players, who are they?"
Meng Yuan pointed to the scene he was watching.
"First of all, of course, it's Zhao Haiping. He performed well in the assassin and soldier trial illusions. I think if he fought the assassin trial, he would probably be able to pass it. But now it seems that he still seems to be right.
The profession of warrior is more interesting.
"His combat talent is top-notch among all players. Once he can really clear the first stage perfectly and enter the second stage as a lieutenant, it should only be a matter of time before he clears the soldier trial.
“I think in one more day, it should be almost done.
"The second is this player named Chu Ge. Although his combat power is very weak and he can be called the fifth scum of the war, he has rich historical knowledge and strong puzzle-solving ability.
"On the first day "Dark Sand" was launched, he posted online to basically determine the goals and gameplay of the game, and pointed out the historical stages corresponding to several trials, which saved players a lot of detours.
"Now he is trying to figure out how to overcome the scribe's trial. It seems that he is making good progress and has already reached the fourth round.
"There is also this player named Huo Yunying. It seems that he has some martial arts skills in real life and can get started quickly in the Ranger dungeon. At present, his combat effectiveness has fully reached the standard. What he lacks is the thinking and acting skills required to clear the dungeon.
.
"Of course, in addition to these three people, there are other players who perform well. For example, this player named Du Gang has no particularly outstanding advantages, but his overall quality is good and his abilities in all aspects are average.
"Also, I always feel that his identity in reality should not be simple."
The consultant said: "Do you want to know his occupation in reality? I can find out."
Meng Yuan immediately shook his head: "No need for now, there is no need for it for the time being. The players are still in the exploratory stage. The players who stand out at this stage may not necessarily be the strongest. It is better to observe more."
The businessman couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that you would be so confused when entering the dungeon that you couldn't do anything. When you comment on these people, you will do the same thing."
Meng Yuan chuckled: "You're kidding, I'm a top cloud player. Although I can't play games well, I'm very good at giving advice."
The consultant asked again: "Then how soon do you think these players can clear the level?"
Meng Yuan did not hesitate: "One day at most! And as long as one player passes the level, a large number of players will soon pass it."
…
Day three, 10 p.m.
Zhao Haiping once again entered the game world of "Dark Sand".
He took a deep breath and calmed down.
“It feels like the preparations are almost complete.
"The combat effectiveness has basically reached the bottleneck, and the relevant preparations have been done, especially the rhetoric when facing the general. I have asked Chu Ge to help me advise, so there should be no big problem.
“As for the third stage, it is likely that we can only rely on pure hard power.
"If my condition is better, I might break three stages in one go today!"
Although Zhao Haiping is still stuck in the first stage, after such a long period of preparation, he is already full of confidence.
Before quitting the game yesterday, he had basically been able to clear the first stage without getting discouraged or retreating throughout the entire process.
The innate skill of licking blood from the edge of a knife allows him to perform better in close hand-to-hand combat and when there are many enemies. The continuous fighting and training in the past two days also made his cold weapon combat skills make a huge leap.
.
Zhao Haiping was extremely sure in his heart that as long as he could kill enough Beidi barbarians in the first stage, his identity would definitely change after entering the second stage.
As for the second and third stages, he has also made full preparations.
During the day, he added Chu Ge's contact information and discussed the copy with him in detail.
Chu Ge is the player who previously posted on the Internet to determine the historical periods of these trial dungeons. He seems to be currently conquering the scribe's trial dungeon.
Zhao Haiping is currently the person who has made the fastest progress in the Martial Soldier dungeon, and Chu Ge is of course happy to communicate with him.
After Chu Ge analyzed the contents of the copy of the soldier, he specially finalized a set of rhetoric for Zhao Haiping.
This rhetoric made the most of the characteristics of people of this era, and was the one that Chu Ge believed was most likely to convince the general.
In this way, even if Zhao Haiping cannot become a deputy general at the first stage and obtains a relatively low status, such as being just a personal guard, using this rhetoric can greatly increase the chance of persuading the general.
As for what the third phase will be like, Zhao Haiping has not seen it yet, so Chu Ge cannot give a specific response plan. He can only predict how to deal with some emergencies in advance based on historical records.
Zhao Haiping prepared all these things during the day, and then confidently entered the soldier trial of "one general succeeds".
Back to the starting point.
Zhao Haiping very skillfully chose the talent skill of licking blood with the blade, and then looked at the Beidi barbarians under the city, holding a bow in his left hand and reaching for the quiver with his right hand.
