My Pokémon Player

After the newbies walked out of the castle and saw the scenery outside, they all shouted "Chinese culture".

"Fuck! The scene outside the castle is so real!"

"Even the feeling of the breeze is exactly the same as in reality!"

"Virtual reality games are awesome! Pokémon World is awesome!!"

The old players waiting on the side were not surprised by this. They were also like this when they first came out of the castle, and were even more excited than the newbies.

Unlike the old players, these newbies entered the game without knowing anything.

They had already had a general understanding of the game in the forums and game groups, and had been mentally prepared.

So although the newbies were shocked by the high degree of realism of this game, they quickly adapted to it. At least no newbies ate grass and gnawed table legs like the old players before.

"Great, there seem to be quite a few female players this time. I can finally find friends to play with."

Lingling clapped her hands happily.

"What do you mean, isn't Miss Xiyue your friend? Besides, there were two female players last time."

Lin Mu said.

"Xifeng has calmed down, you're starting it again, right? You two are really like-minded. I don't know how a person as steady as Guyan can play with you."

"You don't understand this, you only see the surface. Yanzi is the most sultry. Let me tell you, let's not talk about him first, you haven't answered me yet."

Lin Mu was about to expose Chen Yan's past when he was glared at by the other party. He immediately changed the subject.

"Xiyue is of course my little partner. I just want to find two more girls to play with. Last time, the two female players wanted to play by themselves, so I didn't force them to join."

"This time, I finally waited for the newbies to come online. I must pull a few sisters to join our team. Let's start with this task of bringing the old and the new. Don't compete with me for the girls!"

Lingdang said to several male players.

"Don't worry, girls are not as cute as Pokémon. If there were no rewards for bringing new players, I would be too lazy to bring them even if the girls begged me. I'd rather spend this time with my family to exercise."

Lin Mu glanced at the newbies, and then continued:

"By the way, there are indeed a lot of female players this time, almost one-third, which is quite rare."

Old Ye nodded and said:

"This is normal. The Pokémon in our game are too lethal to women. There are many girls in the comments under the official website promotional video saying that Pokémon are cute and want to play Pokémon in person in the game."

"Therefore, the proportion of female players who have made reservations is not small, and naturally many girls will be eligible for the internal test."

Lin Mu understood and said: "I see, but this game is indeed very suitable for girls to play. You don't have to fight yourself, you just need to command Pokémon to fight, so you don't have to worry about them dragging you down."

As soon as this was said, Lingling was immediately unhappy.

"What do you mean? You look down on us female players, don't you?"

Lin Mu also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly explained:

"No, no, I mean that this game is very friendly to girls, and female players can also have strong strength with Pokémon."

"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you think. It's because of male players like you who are chauvinistic that I want to form a group of only girls to prove that we are no worse than you male players!"

Lingdang said angrily.

"Are you going to form a guild? I remember that the game doesn't have this function yet?"

Old Ye looked puzzled.

"Not yet, but I believe there will be one in the future, so I plan to recruit a few girls to establish the prototype of the team."

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's not easy. Now you are thinking about building a guild. No wonder you have to recruit female players. How many people do you plan to recruit this time?"

"Xiyue didn't accept the task of bringing in new players, and I only have two new players. I can only recruit two people at most."

Lingdang replied dejectedly.

In order to thank Chen Yan and others for leading them, the second group of players originally wanted to let five old players lead three new players each, and each of the other fifteen new players would lead one.

But Chen Yan and others were embarrassed, and after refusing for a long time, they decided that the old players would lead two new players each, and the remaining new players would be divided among the other players.

Even if they could only lead two new players, she and Xiyue could lead four female players. If they could bring them all in, her small team would have six players.

But Xiyue said that she was not good at communicating with strangers, and was afraid that she would not be able to lead new players well, so she did not accept the task of leading new players. Now there are two fewer quotas, and her team can only have four players at most. Establishing a guild is still an unattainable goal.

"It's okay, take your time, let's pull these two new players into the team first, four players are not a small number, and there are only fifty players in this game now."

Lao Ye comforted him.

"Yeah, I must carefully select these two people and try to get them to join my team!"

Lingling regained his energy and began to look for suitable candidates among the newbies.

"Alas, the more I think about it, the more troublesome it is to lead newcomers. If it weren't for the Elf Coins reward, I really don't want to take this task. I can burn a lot of red bricks with this time."

Lin Mu sighed.

Since the bank will only open tomorrow, they cannot yet borrow money to purchase the land use rights, so the veteran players have been burning bricks and making mud these two days, hoping to build houses as soon as possible after purchasing the land use rights.

Lin Mu's second Pokémon is Mudboy, so he doesn't have to queue up to rent Lord Lane's Mudboy and Heavy Mud Horse, which is a great advantage in making mud.

Originally, he planned to use these two days to quickly make red bricks and cement and try to be the first to build a house, but Chen Yan insisted on dragging him to take care of Mengxin.

To be honest, he didn't understand the significance of Chen Yan's move. Although buying the right to use a house required a lot of money, the elf coins that were given as a reward for bringing in new people were not enough. It was better to finish building the house early and then concentrate on making money.

Chen Yan saw that Lin Mu didn't understand what he was doing, so he explained:

"Actually, taking this mission is not only for the Elf Coin reward, but also for other benefits."

"First of all, bringing these newcomers will definitely improve Lord Ryan's favorability and establish an image of helpfulness, unity and friendship in his heart."

“Secondly, these newbies have just entered the game and don’t understand anything. If there are experienced players to guide them, they will definitely be grateful. We can also sell them a favor, and maybe these newbies can help us in the future. "

“Lastly, and most importantly, this group of newbies is a reward in itself.”

"Huh? Is it also a reward for newcomers?"

Lin Mu's face was full of confusion. The first two points made sense, but what did the last point mean.

"Yes, think about it, if we build a house, it will definitely take a lot of time. We can't waste all our time on the house."

"We work hard to level up, isn't it just to pass the trainer test as soon as possible, and then explore the more exciting world outside."

"But building a house is also very important. After all, this is our future home. So the question is, how should we choose? Should we spend a lot of time building the house first and then explore, or should we explore first and leave the house alone? Built.”

The other players fell into deep thought after hearing Chen Yan's speech.

Yes, this is indeed a problem. They don’t know whether to choose a house or poetry and... Oh no, it should be adventure and distant places.

"We can hire NPCs. Anyway, they have finished their spring plowing, so they can help us build a house. When the bank opens, we can exchange some of this world's currency, so we can spend money to hire them."

The multi-grain rice crust suddenly thought of a way.

"You're right, hiring NPCs is indeed a good idea, but I asked Butler Anderson that the currency we can exchange is limited and we can't hire many people. Moreover, they have only built wooden houses before, and have never built brick houses. Can you rest assured if you hand over your house to them?”

Chen Yan asked rhetorically.

"Um, that seems a bit unreliable. Do you mean to hire those new people to build a house for us? But they don't know how to do it. Besides, there are only so many new people, and the manpower is not enough."

Lao Ye also raised his own questions.

"They don't know how, but players can search for tutorials online. We were learning and working at the same time. As for the problem of manpower shortage, didn't we just say that we can hire a small number of NPCs?"

"Let new players take charge of the overall situation, and with the help of NPCs, building a house is not a problem. And if something unexpected happens, they can also notify us in the offline game group so that we can understand the situation. In this way, we I can go out on adventures with confidence.”

"And the most important point is that newbies are cheap! Give them a few elf coins and they can work happily. It's even more cost-effective than hiring NPCs!"

Chen Yan looked very similar to Ryan at the moment, exuding the smell of a black-hearted capitalist from the inside out.

"Hey~ I really can't tell, Yanzi, you have a dark heart. The newbies are so cute, but you can cruelly exploit them!"

Lin Mu said heartbrokenly.

"Then can you give me your two newcomer spots?"

"Ahem, I think this is not bad. It can just train the new people's hard-working spirit!"

Lin Muyi said righteously.

"Besides, this is not how we came here in the first place. Cutting down trees and farming is not much more tiring than them, and we don't make as much money as they do."

Speaking of this, Lin Mu and other old players suddenly felt something was wrong.

So, was he squeezed out by Ryan?

impossible! Lord Lane was so kind to them, giving them interest-free loans and giving them farmland. How could he be a black-hearted capitalist? They must be overthinking it!

"According to Yanzi, these newbies are quite useful to us. No wonder you insisted on letting me take on this task."

"Yes, yes, with this new group of people, we can go out and roam with confidence."

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and divide it. The one who looks strong belongs to me. No one can snatch it from me!"

After the old players understood the role of the newbies, they looked at the newcomers differently and their eyes gleamed.

Ryan was shocked when he saw this. He couldn't figure out what these old players were doing.

First they gathered together and muttered for a long time, and then stared at the newcomers with warm eyes. They didn't look like old players at all.

"Ahem, those standing there are visitors from the God Realm who came to this world in advance. They will help you get familiar with this world. If you don't understand anything, you can ask them questions."

Ryan said to the new players.

The newbies looked at the old players with some uneasiness. They always felt that the eyes of these seniors were a little creepy.

"Why are you standing there? Come and show them around Firefly Town."

Ryan called out loudly.

"Yes, sir!"

When the old players heard Ryan's words, they immediately rushed over happily and began to select the newbies.

"This new guy is good. He has muscles on his arms. His strength attribute is very high. I chose him."

"You don't understand. It's better to choose a player with high physical attributes. I think this new guy is good."

"I saw this guy first. Why did you snatch him?"

"You see it, it's yours. It was obviously me who met him first."

"Stop talking nonsense. Let's have a Pokémon battle. Whoever wins will get the new guy!"

"Come on, who's afraid of who!"

The old players were in a mess.

The newbies were confused. What's going on? Are they so popular?

Seeing that all the players had taken out their Poké Balls, a roar interrupted their dispute.

"Be quiet!"

Everyone looked in the direction where the voice came from and found that Lord Ryan was looking at them angrily.

This is bad, the favorability will drop a lot, and the old players will immediately be honest.

The newbies were very surprised to see this scene. These old players seemed to be very afraid of this NPC. It was really strange that players who were fearless would be afraid of NPCs. This was unreasonable.

Before the newbies thought more, they heard Ryan scolding:

"Facing your juniors, you don't think about how to help them better, but instead fight here. How can this be? If you don't want to lead them, just say it directly. I can guide them so that you don't embarrass yourself here!"

Ryan was really angry. These old players were usually very good, why did they fail at the critical moment?

Seeing that Ryan was really angry, the old players bowed and apologized:

"Sorry, Lord, we were just a little too excited to see the newcomers. Please forgive our reckless behavior. We will definitely guide them well and let the newcomers get familiar with Firefly Town as soon as possible."

"That's the best. You have never let me down. I hope this time will be the same as before."

Seeing that the old players were sincere, Ryan did not pursue it. In fact, he could understand it. In his previous life, he was also very excited when he saw the newcomers in the game, just like a peacock with its tail spread.

Little did he know that the old players were excited for different reasons from him. They were just trying to grab cheap labor.

In order not to anger Ryan, the old players began to line up in an orderly manner to select newcomers.

"Brothers, something is wrong."

One of the newbies said. He looked at the old players on the side commenting on them, and some even paid to buy a position closer to the front. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

"I have a black friend in real life, and he often tells me stories about his ancestors being sold to America."

"I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel that we are very similar to his ancestors now."

"Seriously, these old players won't treat us as black slaves, right?!"
