Online games: Starting from an encounter

Early morning.

In the room.

Shen Lang quickly took off his helmet and went straight to the bathroom.

After a shiver, Shen Lang suddenly felt very comfortable.

After fighting in the game for 12 hours in a row, even in a light sleep state, he couldn't hold it back...

After taking care of his domestic needs, Shen Lang picked up his phone and went downstairs.

It was already late at night, and most of the snack bars around the community had already closed, leaving only a barbecue restaurant still open.

Shen Lang hesitated for a moment and walked into the barbecue restaurant.

Although it was already late at night, there were still people in the barbecue restaurant, and there were quite a few of them, sitting together in groups of three or two, about seven or eight tables, all of them young people.

Shen Lang found a seat and sat down casually, scanned the QR code on the table with his mobile phone, ordered a draft beer, twenty roasted pork belly, a cucumber salad, and three roasted fire cakes, spending a total of 116 yuan, which was a good price.

After ordering, Shen Lang had to wait for a while before going online, so he took out his mobile phone and opened the Tianyan forum to browse.

"I have reached level 9 today. If nothing goes wrong, I will be able to leave the novice village before noon tomorrow!"

"As expected of Brother Wu, you are really amazing!"

"By the way, Brother Wu, which county city are you going to?!"

At the next table, three young people were talking about the Tianyan game, which caught Shen Lang's attention.

"Of course it's Langya County City, which is the home of our Dongshan Province players. Our boss has said that all the brothers of the Tianxia League must settle in Langya City and strive to unify all the player forces in the entire Langya City!"

"By the way, you two will also go to Langya City when the time comes. With my protection, you will definitely have no problem!"

The young man who spoke at the beginning dyed his hair red, and he was very proud of his words.

"That's for sure, but Brother Wu, can you talk to the leader of the World Alliance and let us join the main alliance?"

"Yes, Brother Wu, can you let us join the main alliance of the World Alliance?"

The other two young men said.

"Well... we'll talk about it later. The alliance hasn't been established yet. There's some chaos inside. We, the main forces, haven't figured out our positions yet. Let's talk about it after the leader of the World Alliance has established the alliance."

Red Hair hesitated for a moment and said perfunctorily.

"Okay, we'll apply after the world leader builds the alliance!"

"By the way, Brother Wu, I heard that another force in Qinghai City has also settled in Langya County."

"Are you talking about the Snow Region?"

"Yes."

"The Lin family's Xiaotong has registered with the Langya City Adventurer's Guild and officially joined Langya City. Now she has become the first person on the Langya City ranking list, and her ranking is even higher than the world leader."

"Humph, first place, so what? The group of students from Zhonghai University can't make any waves."

Red Hair said with some disdain.

"Not only that, in addition to Lin family's Xiaotong, I see that there are several people in the Snow Region who are also on the ranking list, such as Yu Luo Dengming, Mu Huaxi, Straight Man, and Luo Xi, who seem to be their people."

The young man next to him spoke, which made Red Hair's face look a little ugly.

"Okay, okay, don't try to boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige here. Just wait and see. The sky of Langya City will definitely belong to our Tianxia League!"

...

"Tianxia... Snowland..."

From the conversation between the three people, Shen Lang actually felt a bloody atmosphere.

Long before Tianyan was launched, many players had established forces, and there were more than a hundred in Qinghai City alone.

The most famous among them are [Snowland], [Tianxia League] and [Youth Song].

The leader of [Snowland] is Lin Tong, the school beauty of Zhonghai University, and most of its members are also students. Nan Xi, who Shen Lang has been thinking about, is also one of them.

As for [Tianxia League], it was organized by "Tianxia". It is rumored that he is the president of a listed company. At a young age, he has a net worth of tens of millions. He can be said to be young and promising.

In addition to these two forces, Qinghai City also has a more famous one, which is [Young Song]. Its leader is a famous second-generation rich man in Qinghai City. His family assets exceed 10 billion. He even invested in setting up a studio before the game started, and recruited many game masters with huge financial resources. It is said that the monthly salary is more than 30,000 yuan. He is really rich.

"I wonder if I am on the ranking list of Langya City..."

Shen Lang muttered, then took out his mobile phone, opened the official website of Tianyan and logged in to his account, and quickly searched out the ranking list of Langya City.

Ranking list (Langya County City):

[First place: Lin Jia Xiaotong, level 13]

[Second place: Tianxia, ​​level 13]

[Third place: Weishan Lake, level 13]

[Fourth place: Xiaoyao, level 13]

[Fifth place: Immortal Sword God, level 13]

[Sixth place: Yuluo Dengming, level 12]

[Seventh place: Tianxia Fa Shen, level 12]

[Eighth place: Xueluo Wusheng: level 11]

[Ninth place: Tianxia Qi Shen: level 11]

[Tenth place: Straight Man: level 11]

......

[Twenty-ninth place: Luoxi: level 11]

[Thirty-seventh place: Mu Huaxi: level 11]

...

Looking at the ranking list of Langya City, Shen Lang was somewhat shocked.

There are five players above level 13 in just one county city. You can imagine how competitive the entire Huaxia area is.

The game is balanced. Not only does he have opportunities, but others also have them.

Although it is difficult for the strong to succeed, the population base of the Huaxia area is too large.

Even if he is a rare genius, there are more than 100,000 of them among the billions of people in China...

"Hey, why am I not here?"

Shen Lang suddenly remembered something.

He is already level 13 and a half, so he should be ranked at least sixth, but he has been flipping to the end of the list and still can't find his name.

This is a bit wrong...

"Is there something fishy?"

Frowning slightly, Shen Lang quickly checked the official website.

If you don't check, you won't know that there are actually some omissions.

It turns out that after entering the city, players need to register with the Adventurer Guild of the county city where they are located, so that they can become a member of the county city force and appear on the list, and they can also obtain corresponding attribute bonuses...

Note:

The bonus attribute of Langya County City: the explosion rate of killing wild monsters increases by 5%.

"Alas... I threw more than 200 yuan in vain!"

Shen Lang woke up from a dream and couldn't help sighing.

The explosion rate of killing wild monsters increased by 5%. It doesn't sound like much, but it is not a small amount.

Take this afternoon for example. Shen Lang earned more than 1,000 silver coins. 5% is more than 50 coins, which is more than 200 yuan in RMB...

"Young man, your skewers are ready, please enjoy!"

Just when Shen Lang was a little depressed, the wine and food he ordered came at the right time.

"Thank you!"

Shen Lang thanked the woman who served the dishes, and then couldn't wait to eat.

He was already very hungry, and a mouthful of draft beer and a mouthful of barbecue was quite satisfying.

Shen Lang ate this meal for an hour, and three pounds of fresh and cold draft beer went down his stomach, which was very satisfying.

During this period, Guan Suo and Chen Ming went offline one after another and chatted about today's results in the group.

Guan Suo is already level 8 and a half, and it is estimated that he will be able to leave the Novice Village and go to Langya City tomorrow afternoon.

Chen Ming is only level 7, and he can't leave the Novice Village until tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow at the earliest. He is useless.

Shen Lang sent the screenshots of [Lion King Shield] and [Wild Charge] to the group.

Guan Suo exploded on the spot after seeing the two screenshots, and changed his words directly, calling Daddy left and right.

Chen Ming cursed and left the group chat...
