Xu Liangyu has been very excited recently.

He was an ordinary person born in an ordinary family. Although his parents were powerless, he had been very studious since he was a child. He read many books and always had different views on some things than his peers. For this reason, he was regarded as an alien in the eyes of his peers and was often ostracized by them, but he vaguely understood - and when he grew up, he understood even more that those ordinary playmates were the real childish people.

His hard work finally allowed him to get a good future. Although after graduating from a prestigious university, he once felt resentful that he could not get a job that matched his excellence, but then he had another realization: He just needs to "work harder".

At a time when the virtual game industry was developing rapidly, several college classmates who were quite skilled at playing games also wanted to start a career. He was invited during that period of hesitation, so he went there without hesitation. The studio looked a bit promising at first, but soon he realized again that he shouldn't go in this direction, as it was different from his ideal.

So he worked hard and made a splash in a game called "The Last Gun God". Then he was spotted by Tianxiang Group, which had just entered the gaming industry. He said goodbye to his mother studio and decisively " Poached by".

Although Xu Liangyu's achievements are obvious to all, the Tianxiang Group's structure makes it impossible to reuse a newcomer who just joined, so he was placed in a small team at the bottom of a company it acquired to participate in some basic coordination work. The people in his team are all newcomers who have just "joined" and are managed by a boss who is said to be the apple of the eye of the group boss.

That was the first time he saw Chu Lingbing.

It's not love at first sight, and he is relatively indifferent to relationships. Although he fell in love several times when he was in college, they were all temporary passions, and there was no feeling after they passed. As for finding a wife, a life-long matter, he had not formally considered it at that time. He had not yet made a career that he could recognize, so what if he found a woman to be his wife...

But that short period of time together gave Xu Liangyu a lot of strange feelings.

Her appearance and temperament are both excellent. She is much stronger than the school beauties she has seen, and she is even more powerful in her actions. She can be said to be vigorous and resolute. The team has a small number of people, so she does almost everything by herself, and is responsible for everyone and the entire team. The team encountered many difficulties in the early days, and she also ran around for these things. Ability to eliminate them one by one.

That ease with which Xu Liangyu had to admit was indeed an ability possessed by a lady. Although she kept an indifferent face all day long, her diligent attitude in doing things seemed to have a force in her heart, pushing that proud plum blossom. , desperately blooming to the world in winter.

Chu Lingbing... really lives up to his name.

No man can fail to be attracted by her charm after being together for a while. In fact, such situations do happen often. She gives gifts, flowers, various things, and even proposes in various ways. Everyone who is next to her has seen it. To an unknown extent, even team members, including myself, have become targets for others to collect intelligence and bribe them for show. However, everything was resolved by her calmly in the end. Occasionally, he had some doubts in his heart. Is her heart really like ice, without a single crack...

Out of curiosity or admiration or not knowing what kind of mood he was in, he investigated secretly, and then discovered the unexpected but reasonable fact: She had a fiancé, but she kicked him away. .

What an independent modern woman...but I love it.

The male's desire for possession is stimulated even more intensely by the scenes that often appear in Korean dramas. Moreover, he considers himself to be a talented person and has good abilities. Although most of the jobs he comes here are related to some statistics in the game industry. , it’s not a big deal, but his talent is not limited to this aspect... I also know her habits quite well. As long as I pay a little attention, the road to win Bai Fumei and reach the pinnacle of life is laid out. In front of my own eyes...

However, before his plan was officially implemented, the other party was transferred.

That was the official transformation of the Tianxiang Company above, and business related to the gaming industry emerged. She was transferred to be responsible for part of the work... He didn't care about any of this. Even though that's the headquarters over there, I guess I'll probably get a lot more harassment. Humph, how could such a woman be taken away so easily? I have plenty of opportunities, as long as you give me a chance...

Then the Xiangrui Group incident came out.

If the opportunity really comes to him, of course he will not let it go. First, he managed everything from top to bottom and snatched this part of the related tasks from many colleagues. Then, relying on his management experience in schools and his unique understanding of the game industry from his work experience in the studio, he made a bold plan , and then ran to the person in charge of the upper-level company to issue a military order...

Well, just look at the current situation that he has been transferred to the headquarters of Tianxiang Company.

In short, with his own efforts and seizing opportunities, he slowly stood out among the "ordinary masses" and joined the real upper class society. Even though the place has more intrigues and shadows, he still has the talent and confidence to overcome these obstacles. And the most important thing is that he returned to the goddess, whether in reality or in the game.

So he was excited.

Although the rain stopped, the remaining water droplets among the leaves continued to fall on his head from time to time. What a miscalculation. When I came, I was prepared. Equipment that could adapt to activities in the rain was not taken into consideration. After all, things were too big and too many, so some details were ignored... But it doesn't matter, just pay attention to it in the future. And the rain has stopped, I hope it won't rain again...

But when it rained, he ran to the only grocery store in the village to see if there were any raincoats or other items for sale. As a result, the wretched boss looked at him like a fat sheep and asked for 500 Ebri coins. ...

Alas, it is indeed a poor place.

He thought this, and then ignored the sarcastic and jealous looks in the eyes of several teammates next to him, took off his cloak and put it on the white-armored woman in front: "It's better to put it on, at least it can keep warm."

The woman turned back, glanced at him coldly, and then continued to move forward, the cloak behind her blowing loudly.

Right, that is it. Of course it won't melt away even if it's frozen three feet in a day or two, so just take your time. Although she showed some dissatisfaction with her arrival, she probably had some objections to the arrangement of free flight... .Strong women will always have such thoughts, and sometimes even some arbitrary behavior, you don't have to pay attention to it, just let her go. A few days ago, she notified some of her subordinates to find a player whose real name was Duan Qing, saying that if anyone knew about it, they would notify her...

Humph, God knows who that so-and-so is, maybe it's a relative she can't even touch who came to play games and defect to her. Well, maybe it's a friend, or... forget it, just in case, just pay a little attention. Anyway, it's going smoothly now. Didn't you see that there was progress just now... He He thought with satisfaction, and showed the triumphant look on his face to the others without concealing it, as if he was showing them his territory.

As for the current mission, it is said that it is to search for ancient ruins... Although I have done investigations and preparations before, but with the strength of the team I am in now, I should worry too much. After playing "The Gunslinger of the Last Days", he has made a name for himself in several games. He has a certain reputation and a lot of experience. The Dong Xia Yanliang over there is said to be a rare species who plays magic. A big man with a shield, it is said that he single-handedly picked three people from Jianghu a few days ago. They are people from Jianghu... Besides, the work of investigating ruins is to light a torch and walk to a gloomy place at most, to be prepared. Some monsters and traps, and finally a BOSS, then you can call it a day and go home...

Maybe you can also find an opportunity to show your greatness... His eyes finally began to look around, looking for possible dangers that could be solved by himself. Although he paid attention to the enemy tactically, But strategically, we still have to despise the enemy after all...

After all, it’s just a game, how difficult can it be?

*****************

"So just don't use the same tricks you used to play games here."

In the woods, Duan Qing and his foursome continued to walk forward casually. Although they have walked far away, several people in the team still resented the previous tree house, so there were some differences, especially when Mengzhu mentioned casually that there might be something underground under the tree house. When it came to the existence of some hidden secret passage, the other two people showed the same suspicion, so the resentment of "leaving early and gaining nothing" became even greater.

Duan Qing couldn't bear it anymore and began to try to use preaching methods to change these people's view of the game.

"Old games, even online games, as long as they are made by people, they are all within the rules after all. You may experience a shocking script, meet a few impressive characters, or Find some very secret clues, and then discover that there is a hidden secret passage somewhere that you have passed by before, and find that this script actually has a different ending; or play somewhere and suddenly find a time paradox, or even discover that the game is located in The timeline is all fake, and then the game uses a magical way to bring you back to the starting point to save the world that was ruined by your previous wrong choices; or the horizontal version of the game suddenly turns into a 3D adventure game, and the entire The game framework has changed..."

Duan Qing said this with an unprecedented serious expression: "They call it art. I agree, but those are works. Do you know what works mean? They are just like novels, animations, movies, and TV series. … It’s all made by people.”

"As long as it is done by humans, there will be traces to follow."

"No matter how you play, you can only play what the producer wants you to play. If you don't play it, that's your problem. If you overplay it, it will be a legendary BUG; even if it is a free sandbox game , it’s nothing more than a worldview, a system, various element settings, and at most one more script... What, it’s not enough? Then add a few more worldviews.”

"But now, the game we play is called a virtual reality game, a virtual-real-game!" Duan Qing emphasized loudly.

"Okay, you may think that these virtual reality games are still made by people, but since the emergence of the independent computing method of virtual reality technology to support the operation of the world, such traceable things no longer exist. It will cease to exist starting in 2125!”

"This is a simulated real world."

"There is no single plot line here, nothing is inevitable, and you will not be able to figure out all the gameplay of the entire game just because you have played it for more than thousands of hours. Even the code has been thoroughly studied... I won’t let you choose this, choose that, and choose again and again, and finally find out that there are several endings, and then start all over again - the most important thing is that there are no backtracks!”

"Except that you are not alive, there is no difference between this place and the real world."

In the doubtful eyes of several people, Duan Qing seemed to have entered a trance state, and then he smiled bitterly as if he had woken up from a dream, then shook his head, and once again brought the subject back to the previous direction: " So, what I mean is, those of you who find the tree house and think there must be something hidden there, stop thinking.”

"There is no logical basis for it."

He turned around and walked away. Mengzhu and the other two people were stunned for a moment, and then slowly followed him. Although they didn't understand much of the discussion just now, the feeling of "unconsciousness" became more obvious.

The girl thought carefully for a while with her little head, and then quietly approached Duan Qing: "Hey, uncle, is there anything hidden in that place? What did you want to say just now... "

"You still didn't understand after talking for a long time, right...Okay." Duan Qing turned around and put on a serious look, "What I just said..."

He turned around and smiled: "I'm all here to fool you."

"Huh?" Mengzhu was confused at first, then she puffed her mouth and was about to get angry, but Duan Qing put a hand on her head and pushed her back: "Don't think too much, hurry up."

"You don't have to think about these things anymore, it's... useless."

Perhaps sensing something strange about Duan Qing, she did not continue her usual back talk with her uncle. Duan Qing in front of him did have some ups and downs in his heart, not only because of the things he just thought of, but also because... that tree house is indeed not worthless.

He opened the system menu and saw the words "Phil's Tree House" somewhere on the expanded adventure map, and looked at it silently for a long time.

Then, something unusual happened.

Several people heard the knocking sound in the distance. First, A Niu on one side gave a warning, and then Duan Qing signaled everyone to proceed cautiously.

"Isn't it that old nigga who wants to jump out again..."

"If you listen carefully, it seems that the voice is different from last time...Also, don't keep calling people Lao Hei Blind, they are called Black Bears."

As the team slowly advanced, the banging sound became clearer—it sounded like someone plowing the field with a hoe.

The sound of "Keng" and "Keng" came, and then stopped from time to time, as if the source of the sound stopped on its own, and then started ringing again after a while. Duan Qing and the others looked at each other in silence, their eyes silently looking at each other. Their vigilant expressions also revealed a hint of excitement. In the end, it was the stupid Aniu who walked out without thinking and started the fight.

Duan Qing shook his head helplessly. Although he felt reckless, he still decided to follow. You can't just betray your teammates, and after walking for so long, you finally encountered something... He also slowly approached, and the timid Mengzhu behind him was just about to follow, when a huge sound suddenly came from behind. The roar almost scared the nervous little girl to faint.

The little girl turned around, trying to find the culprit who had caused her to secrete adrenaline rapidly, but the evil young man from Jie City on the side found him first and then let out a cry of terror.

That was definitely not what Mengzhu wanted to see.

In the shadow of the trees on the right rear, several figures running quickly flashed past, and then a huge black shadow appeared behind those figures, roaring and chasing after them.

Duan Qing and A Niu had also turned back at this time, and then they watched in stunned silence as the giant shadow gradually became clearer: a green-black surface, a huge head, two eyes as black as bright pearls in the night, huge fangs, and The fuses spit out from the mouth from time to time... When the light between the branches and leaves shines on its surface, you can still faintly see the reflection of the scales and a sharp protrusion in the middle of the flat head.

That was a big snake... No, to this extent, python is no longer enough to describe it. In distant ancient China, a certain word describing a certain mythical creature was more suitable to represent the image of the creature in front of us at that time.

Jiao.
