From star abyss

Jiao Ziniu hung up the communication and fell into deep thought for a moment.

"An abnormality in the radio waves has been detected. Your mood is characterized by anxiety. Can you express your inner doubts? I will analyze it for you and make suggestions."

The servitor reminded him in time, causing Jiao Ziniu to shake his head and say:

"I don't know if you can understand this feeling. Huanfeng Province has been unknown for too long. My hometown has always wanted to increase its popularity and exposure. But it always ends in failure. Maybe our hometown can only become The existence of small transparency.”

“So, you’re questioning whether you want to contribute to your hometown?”

"...In fact, when the manager mentioned that diving into the Star Abyss can increase the level limit, I already guessed what he wanted to say."

Jiao Ziniu covered his forehead:

"As he said, it is estimated that whether the current Huanfeng team can gather 20 people to form a union is a problem. Whether it is playing training matches, normal upgrades, or brushing configurations and materials, it will definitely not be our turn. Okay. Even if we really form a team, I guess we won’t be able to achieve any outstanding results for the time being.”

"The list of e-sports celebrities in Huanfeng Province has been searched for you...the number of searches, 3 people."

"I knew it - "Star Abyss" is not a game that advocates personal heroism. I think, according to Lei Yunjing's idea, he probably wants me to follow Li Ozi and get rid of the level limit first, so as to create a A gimmick, something like 'the first person to break through the version limit'. Then use this to build a reputation and attract players from Maple Ring Province to join."

Jiao Ziniu spread his hands:

"This is the place that I struggle with - if my hometown can contribute, I would be happy, but the problem is, I feel that it doesn't make much sense for me to do so. The probability of success is too low."

"It's not very feasible. It's still unknown whether your character has a close relationship with 'Lee Aozi'. In the universe environment, because your character is unfamiliar with the place, there is an 87.9% probability that the upgrade speed will lag behind that of the Sky Ring period. .”

The synthetic human servitor's cold and rational speech confirmed Jiao Ziniu's conjecture.

"That's right……"

Jiao Ziniu thought sadly:

"I didn't expect this situation to happen. The universe is full of unknowns. When I was a personal player, I was just here to play. As a result, the Sky Ring Blockade suddenly made me famous. Now I have several Every team came to invite me."

"Are you dissatisfied with the ending? My emotion detection system shows that you are feeling a lot of pressure at the moment. Do you need me to play a piece of music for you to relieve your anxiety at the moment?"

"Thank you. Actually, I feel that music doesn't mean much to me. How could it be possible to have immediate results if music is played..."

"Now playing: "Sunshine Rainbow Little White Horse"——"

Jiao Ziniu puffed up his mouth and tried hard not to laugh.

"——Pfft, hahaha, cough! Be serious."

Jiao Ziniu rubbed his temples. After being interrupted by the machine servant, he relaxed his mind:

"In that case, I'm not sure about agreeing now anyway. I'm going to go out first and visit my friend - VT. There's no need to cook my meal at noon."

"Roger, we've called a taxi for you. Have a nice time."

……………………

Twenty minutes later, Jiao Ziniu walked out of the parking port and arrived at his destination.

Terra Historical Martial Arts Study Club.

This antique building appears a bit abrupt in the city 400 meters above the ground. There are lanterns hanging from the eaves here, which seems to be the way of celebrating the New Year in some areas.

At the door of the club is placed the treasure of the minister's house: a 1:1 restored knight's plate armor, which is deliberately aged, with bullet holes from muskets and scratches from swords added, making it a piece of modern technology. Handicrafts have become heirlooms with rich heritage that have been ravaged by history.

"Hey, Aniu, you're late."

As soon as Jiao Ziniu stepped through the door, a girl sitting at the front desk immediately shouted to him:

"We agreed to have a New Year's party today, why are you both here so late?"

"Hi, Xia Yubing." Jiao Ziniu raised his hand and waved: "Why are you alone? Isn't Jenna sitting at the front desk?"

"She kept beeping to me, 'You can't drink sugar-free Coke, sugar-free Coke is stupid.' Then Wenlong and Wang Kanshan bought the diet version - now she is so angry that she went to a convenience store to buy it herself."

"Drink less carbonic acid, it will make your sword slower."

The girl with purple bangs walked up to him, bumped fists with Jiao Ziniu, then touched each other's shoulders, and then complained:

"Yesterday, we announced that we would have a gathering today and sent it to the group. The response was pretty good and everyone said they would come."

"A bunch of dead pigeons, that's normal. We usually don't always get together when we have sword fights. Do you expect them to attend the New Year's party prepared by this boring man like the minister on time?"

Jiao Ziniu shrugged.

"Where are the others? Wenlong and Kanshan are here, Jenna went to buy Coke - who else is here today?"

"Shellys and Katie, who just joined the club last month, are both foreign swordsmen who specialize in swift swords and are from the colonies."

Xia Yubing pointed to the two newly hung photos of a blond man and woman behind her:

"Others, Xue Chen said he was going to play "Star Abyss" and won't come today. Ai Lei resigned last month. Moreover, she had long planned to electronically immigrate in "Star Abyss" with her boyfriend. After today, she should He won’t come back either.”

After Xia Yubing finished speaking, he sighed again:

"It's really subtle... People who were not interested in games are now getting into games. Is this game really so fascinating?"

"Xiao Xia doesn't plan to come and play?" Jiao Ziniu asked curiously.

"'Come and play' - OK, so our 'Ox Sword Master' is also addicted to the two-dimensional game world?" Has a 1st-level Yamata Kendo player now become an Internet-addicted teenager who laughs at virtual electronic data?"

"It's not because of this... "Star Abyss" is currently the only game that allows 'turning off pain' and provides 100% feedback on movement flexibility. Plus, I'm an adult, and now I know that filters will not block blood and fractures. The limb effects, even the feeling of brains splashing and the sword blade being hit by raindrops, can be restored one to one."

Jiao Ziniu scratched his chin and said:

"I think that everyone likes full-armor combat. In addition to their love for historical practical martial arts, there is also a big reason for the rapid secretion of dopamine and endorphins during combat, and the desire for exercise and fighting. , is unparalleled, and something that humans can never forget - "Star Abyss" allows me to swing my sword without any scruples, and I feel very happy about it."

"Tch~~~ That's just virtual. Listen up, Aniu, the virtual world is real and fake. Big data is everywhere to detect your behavior. In order to cater to you, you will keep playing games and instill a sense of expectation in you. and a sense of gain. You think you are playing a game, but in fact countless network experts are playing you behind your back."

Xia Yubing spread her hands:

"Forget it, I won't say much. Except for the NPC named Li Ozi, "Xingyuan" is quite good-looking. I have no interest in other parts. Let's go. Jenna has sent a message and everyone has almost arrived. It's time. Let’s have dinner together.”

"That's not right." Jiao Ziniu counted on his fingers: "Are we missing someone?"

"Liz, right?"

"Yeah, it seems that Liz hasn't participated in any activities this year."

"Liz." Xia Yubing paused: "Didn't he die last year?"
