Pian Feng couldn't help but feel that chatting with Zhou Xingyun was just like a board meeting, very formal and serious. He wanted to change the subject and talk about something casual to lighten the atmosphere, but he was led into a dead end.
To be fair, when most people hear him ask, ‘This is...the rock sugar lotus seed soup from Xinshou Village?’, the other person shouldn’t be...how do you know?
Then Pi Feng can use the topic to his advantage, make the topic hot and familiar, talk about interesting things and experiences when he was a newcomer, and enhance the sense of closeness between the two.
Zhou Xingyun, on the other hand, simply said, "I'm very sorry."
You are so serious about playing a game, it’s really confusing...
However, since entering the base area of the Zhenbei Riding Union, Pian Feng came to the conclusion based on what he saw before him that Zhou Xingyun and others really did not look like people playing games.
Or... they are too immersed in playing and treat the game as seriously as they treat life.
In fact, in the eyes of Pian Feng and Mengli Xun She, Zhou Xingyun and others seemed to take the game very seriously, as if every nerve was tense.
In fact, from the perspective of Zhou Xingyun and his party, they are already very relaxed.
After all, in the world of martial arts, there is no room for negligence in the life of a knife-edge licking blood. When walking in the world, it is necessary to tighten every nerve! Because every decision they make, and even every move they make, may lead to death.
.
What now? Zhou Xingyun and his party are just accustomed to remaining vigilant...
Anyway, you won’t be injured or killed in the game, and there is no burden on everyone’s mind. This is the greatest relief for Zhou Xingyun and others.
"To be honest, we were just about to quit the game. I wonder why you two suddenly came to visit?" Zhou Xingyun said straight to the point. After all, Zhenbeiqi's base has been set up, and he should... go back to Jianshu Villa to work.
Already.
Zhou Xingyun felt very tired when he thought about quitting the game and going to take the juniors and juniors from Jianshu Villa for morning exercises.
Fortunately among misfortunes, Zhou Xingyun originally had a very arduous and painful task this year, which was to become his first disciple in order to carry forward his martial arts.
After all, everyone, whether Wei Suyao or Mu Hanxing, followed the rules of the sect and accepted several apprentices to help the sect develop and grow.
Last year, Uncle He Taishi asked Zhou Xingyun to select a few well-qualified children from the disciples of Jianshu Villa and teach them some martial arts.
Zhou Xingyun does not hate children, but he finds it troublesome and does not like taking care of children. Therefore, for Zhou Xingyun, teaching a disciple is a very arduous and painful task.
Fortunately... God gave him a waffle as a gift.
Although the beautiful apprentice's character is a bit extreme, full of prejudice and distrust of the world, but... overall she is great! She has good qualifications, strong martial arts skills, as beautiful as Xizi Li Jinque, as charming as Yang Fei leaning on Jade Tower, and she is also obedient and doting.
Master, three words...it smells so good!
When Pian Feng and He were looking for her in their dreams, they would never have expected that Zhou Xingyun seemed to be talking to them seriously, but deep down he was thinking about all sorts of random things.
"Since President Zhou has come straight to the point, let's talk straight to the point. President Zhou should understand that your guild is in a very bad situation right now."
"Of course our situation is not good, otherwise... we wouldn't build a base in such a poor place." Zhou Xingyun frankly admitted that Zhenbeiqi had no choice but to settle in Blood Valley.
"To be honest, we really didn't expect that you would actually build the union's base in Blood Valley. This generation of mechanical monsters are not only rough-skinned and thick-bodied, but also very difficult to deal with, they are also very aggressive and detectable, and can be discovered from a long distance.
Players are not a place where newcomers can survive. What's more, the things dropped by the mechanical monsters in the Blood Valley are pretty good for mid-range players, but in the eyes of advanced players, they are completely worthless. The most important thing... this is acid rain.
zone, so we have never recommended players to go to Blood Valley for leveling and gold mining.”
It has been mentioned before that the members of "Retirement Hall" like to come up with various game strategies to help players solve their difficulties.
As the president of the pension hall, Piao Feng naturally has a lot of gaming experience and qualifications...
The positioning game in Blood Valley is very strange. This is a leveling area for advanced players. The strength of the monsters in this area is one of the best in the game.
However, the things dropped by the mechanical monsters in the Blood Valley are used by mid-range players...
Mid-range players can be said to be mass players.
Pianfeng divides the players in the game into four levels: high, medium, low and new. High-end players account for less than 10% and are considered the best in the game.
Mid-range players account for about 60%, and they belong to the basic game, the basic group...
The remaining 20% are new players who have just started playing the game and have been playing for about a year. They are somewhat capable but not very good.
The last ten percent are newcomers like Zhou Xingyun who have been in the industry for less than a year.
The mechanical monsters in Blood Valley are very strong, and usually only high-end players can go to the Blood Valley area to level up.
Furthermore, when you kill the mechanical monsters in the Blood Valley, the objects they drop are common supplies used by mid-range players.
Is this kind of mass-market product worth the money?
It’s valuable! How can a popular product that sells well in the market not be valuable?
So the question is, do high-end players need to level up? Will high-end players be short of money?
Others are already high-end players, they are not short of money at all, and they do not need to come to Blood Valley to level up.
What high-end players lack is the best equipment, and what they lack is the best equipment and materials that even money can’t buy!
Instead of coming to Blood Valley to farm public supplies and sell them for money, they might as well defeat the boss directly, or challenge the dungeon secret realm to obtain scarce materials.
The most important point is that acid rain has been falling in the Blood Valley area. They are fighting in the acid rain zone, and their equipment is too durable. The cost of fighting is too high!
Therefore, high-end players will almost never come to Blood Valley because they have more and better choices.
Mid-range players are reluctant to come to Blood Valley because the mechanical monsters in the area are too strong and the natural environment is too poor.
Instead of fighting desperately in Blood Valley, it is better to level up happily in a more relaxed place.
Because of this, Piao Feng feels that there is a problem with the positioning of the Blood Valley upgrade area. The value of Blood Valley's products is aimed at mid-range players, but the difficulty is aimed at high-end players.
Therefore, almost no players are willing to enter the Blood Valley. Unless they receive a special mission, players will only enter the Blood Valley under unavoidable circumstances...
Because of this, when Isabel purchased acid-proof clothing, the price offered by the merchant was very favorable.
Entering Blood Valley's exclusive acid-proof suit, a batch with low strength, only the acid-proof resistance is outstanding, and the other attribute panels are simply terrible.
When ordinary players wear this equipment and enter the Blood Valley, they are just collecting some mission supplies. If you want to use it to kill monsters and level up in the Blood Valley area, it will be a dead end.
"Ahem... So... what do you want to do with us?" Zhou Xingyun interrupted Pi Feng impatiently. Why did this guy suddenly talk non-stop? He began to analyze the environment and monsters in Blood Valley, and talked endlessly about teachings.
Is he playing games?
"Oh! I'm sorry, it's an occupational disease." Pian Feng smiled awkwardly. He often wrote guides to guide newbies in playing games. If they didn't pay attention, they would fall into it. He would talk coherently and endlessly.
"Actually, when we come today, we just want to ask you personally...have you cheated?"
"I said no, do you believe it?" Zhou Xingyun shrugged nonchalantly.
"To be honest, we really want to believe you. That's why we didn't join forces with the Imperial City Union to declare war on you today. Instead, we came here to find out the situation in person, and I hope you can give evidence."
When the Zhenbei Cavalry was first established, hundreds of trade unions declared war on them, but... the Pension Palace was not among them.
"There is something wrong with your thinking. Shouldn't you be the one to provide evidence to prove that we cheated? Why do you want us to provide evidence to prove that we did not cheat?" Zhou Xingyun shook his head in confusion. This situation reminded him of the martial arts world back then.
The tragic days of the alliance's crusade against him.
"Having said that...but if President Zhou can prove his innocence, the rumors will be self-defeating."
"You asked me to prove myself offline, how can I call it self-defeating without attacking? Forget it... Anyway, I still say the same thing, if you ask me to prove myself, I will prove myself? Who are you? Why should I listen to your orders?
"Zhou Xingyun replied categorically: "Self-verification offline is impossible, so just give up on that. If you don't accept it, report us to the authorities. If you don't agree... just come over! I, the Great Zhenbei Cavalry, have nothing to fear!
"
"President Zhou, please don't get me wrong. We are not here to force you. President Zhou does not want to prove himself offline. This is your freedom. We have no right to make irresponsible remarks." Pian Feng said very rationally: "As you just said
Say, we suspect you of cheating, and we should report it to the official instead of uniting to suppress you. However, the situation is stronger than people, and the current trend of the game and public opinion are very unfavorable to you."
"Are you here to help us?" Han Qiumiao couldn't stand it anymore. There was something in Pian Feng's words, and he frequently hinted that Zhou Xingyun and the others were here to help, but Zhou Xingyun just didn't follow the rules.
With no choice, Han Qiumiao, who was eavesdropping on the first floor, had no choice but to go to the conference area on the second floor to find out what was going on.
"Xun..." When she saw Xunxuan following Han Qiumiao in her dream, she immediately straightened her eyes and stood up from her seat.
Zhou Xingyun looked at her in his dream in surprise. Did this person know Xun Xuan? Impossible. But... he seemed to have said the word "Xun" in his mouth just now.
Or... he was amazed by the alluring sister Xunxuan. The pronunciation of the word "Xun" is the homophony of the breath he took when he saw the stunning beauty?
When Piao Feng saw Xun Xuan, he was so shocked that he held his breath and forgot everything for a while.
Fortunately, he was so excited to find her in his dream that Pian Feng came back to his senses...
"We are members of the "Retirement Hall". At some point, everyone should have heard of the deeds of our union." As he spoke, Piao Feng reached out to pull his gloomy companion back to the chair and sit down.
"I've never heard of it..." Zhou Xingyun replied naively: "What the hell is a nursing home?"
"This..." Pian Feng was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "Our Pension Hall is an old trade union that has been established for a long time. We really love this game and hope that the game will get better and better, so we usually help people who are new to the game.
New players to help them get through the difficult pioneering period. You... are very special, very special. You offended the Imperial City Guild when you first started, and now you have become the target of public criticism. We hate cheaters who destroy the balance of the game, but... we
