Online Games: I Met a Mysterious Old Man

For a moment, Chen Xing did not move for a long time, only looking at the place where Xia Qiluo disappeared.

"well......"

He felt very lost.

Although Xia Qiluo is just an NPC, he is more than just an NPC.

Of course, in the final analysis, Xia Qiluo just created an AI in BNW.

That is the composition of 0 and 1.

However, the special thing about bnw is that the NPCs are almost the same as reality. They have the same thoughts, characters, and tone as real players.

It's like another world.

I was extremely immersed in this environment, and for a moment I didn't know where was the virtual and where was the reality.

Especially when Xia Qiluo died, the real discomfort in Chen Xing's heart was very prominent.

Maybe this is not a game, but another world?!

He picked up the old book left by Xia Qiluo and held it in his arms.

[Chen Xing, I want you to be my disciple]

[Chen Xing, I want you to be my disciple]

[Chen Xing, I want you to be my disciple]

Xia Qiluo's words kept echoing in his ears and could not be dissipated for a long time.

【Nice to meet you. Okay, let's go. You are a genius...】

Chen Xing muttered as he walked, recalling what Xia Qiluo said to him in his head.

"Okay, senior, you are my second master."

Chen Xing decided to regard Xia Qiluo as his master.

"Haha? What did you say? Are you willing to let me be your master?"

It was as if Xia Qiluo's happy voice sounded in his ears.

...

Chen Xing stood in front of the huge stone door. It is speculated that this may be a place related to Herbert's legacy.

At this time, he didn't need a key or brute force to break open the stone door.

Because before this, all the guardians guarding the stone gate had been killed by Xia Qiluo.

Chen Xing calmed down for a moment and pushed the stone door open with his hand.

There doesn't seem to be anything special inside the door.

There was only a small box placed on a stone platform.

"Is this something about Herbert's legacy? Is it a little too small? This is neither a sword nor a gun. Could it be a dagger?"

Obviously, such a small box can only hold small weapons such as daggers and gauntlets.

Of course, it might also be some kind of special weapon.

While thinking about it, Chen Xing carefully opened the box.

However, what made Chen Xing even more confused was that there was no weapon inside.

"This is?"

Chen Xing reached out and picked up the items in the box.

[Note: You have obtained treasure map 1/2]

What was inside was not a weapon as Chen Xing thought, but a piece of worn parchment.

"What's this?"

At this moment, Chen Xing felt a little angry.

The dream that Xia Qiluo pursues with his life is not a rare posthumous work, but just a worn-out piece of parchment, a so-called treasure map, or an incomplete treasure map?

It's like a joke.

Just then.

【Congratulations!】

[Note: You have collected the entire treasure map and will get all the items in the treasure map! 】

A notification window pops up.

"What? This is obviously half a treasure map, how come you have collected all of it?"

Chen Xing couldn't understand what the notification window in front of him meant.

Have you collected them all?

It's obviously only half.

Is it a bug?

Just as Chen Xing was thinking this, another window popped up.

[Note: You can now complete the entire treasure map.]

Chen Xing opened the notification bar, and another worn-out parchment treasure map floated out.

The name of this parchment: Treasure Map 2/2.

What?

"ah......"

Chen Xing exclaimed for a while.

"When did I pick this up?"

It turns out that the other half of the treasure map has always been in Chen Xing's inventory, something he had owned a long time ago.

Seeing this half of the treasure map, Chen Xing's memories began to slowly appear.

I remember that a certain territorial lord commissioned a task. He and his guild members completed the task together, and then got this treasure map after the task.

At that time, Chen Xing was still wondering what kind of junk it was. He had no clue at all and no one else had seen it.

And it's only half of the treasure map, no one cares about it at all.

Treating it like junk, Chen Xing put it into his warehouse.

In total, this treasure map has been in my inventory for one year and six months.

After that, Chen Xing's guild was destroyed and he collapsed. Then he met his master Deus and gained a new life. Here he met the weapons master Xia Qiluo and established some kind of connection with him.

During this process, this half of the treasure map has been quietly staying in its inventory.

It took so long that Chen Xing almost forgot that he still had such a thing.

Should this be considered lucky? Or is it some kind of special coincidence? In short, this world is like this. There will always be some unexplainable coincidences, which we call fate.

This is really an amazing coincidence.

What I thought was a junk thing turned out to be connected to Xia Qiluo.

If his guild hadn't collapsed, if he hadn't met Deus, or if he hadn't met Xia Qiluo, this incident might never have happened.

Then Herbert's legacy may forever remain a legend.

Murmuring, Chen Xing put both treasure maps into his inventory.

"I will find Herbert's legacy, Senior Xia Qiluo, no, Master."

Now that the treasure map has been completed, you only need to follow the treasure map to find Herbert's legacy.

...

Returning to East Dejili, Chen Xing entered the eternal haven and began to consider his next move.

The first thought was naturally to avenge Xia Qiluo.

Because of damn Vladimir, Senior Xia Qiluo's body collapsed.

In order to fight Vladimir, senior Xia Qiluo had to use his last secret technique, which caused his body to collapse at an accelerated rate.

Chen Xing certainly had many reasons to kill Cardinal Vladimir.

Firstly, it was to avenge Xia Qiluo, and secondly, Vladimir was also a disciple of the great sage Sieghard and was entrusted by Master Deus.

Also he belongs to the Church of Ozric.

Since the last time we were at the Sohoka Ruins, this is the second time that the Church of Ozric has turned against itself.

Just like Xia Qiluo said, the Church of Ozric must have included itself on the list of people to be wiped out.

Chen Xing slightly felt a little upset about the growing number of enemies.

After the Creation Guild, now the Church of Ozric has also become its biggest enemy.

However, Chen Xing naturally won't be too worried now.

The road to invincibility has been opened for yourself.

Although it is not now, there will be a day when my strength will be enough to face them and fight them.

After sorting himself out, Chen Xing left the hotel and planned to move on.

"Are you Chen Xing?"

When walking through the hotel lobby, the waiter stopped Chen Xing.

"Yes, I am."

"Here is a telegram for you."

"Oh? My telegram?"

Chen Xing was surprised.

In bnw, telegram is a very important method of communication. Unlike other game worlds, you can send online messages to anyone anytime and anywhere.

Obviously, if players can communicate anytime and anywhere no matter where they are, then the balance of the game will no longer exist.

For this reason, Hive has removed all in-game instant messaging and replaced it with telegrams.

A communication network that gave an eternal haven and introduced the telegraph.

Of course, this is not to prevent communication between adventurers, but to balance it with the current background era.

Just like the phone booths of old, you need to go to a place where you can communicate in order to connect with other adventurers or the outside world.
