The Truth of Magic

Chapter 386: Passengers from Earth

Nan Xiaowei's party was after three o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhao Xu's high school class dinner was probably in the evening. Fortunately, the distance was not far away, at least he could reach directly by the subway.

But at noon, Zhao Xu was already riding an electric shared bicycle, swimming in this city that he had known and grown up since he was a child.

From elementary school, junior high school to high school, Zhao Xu walked past one by one, looking at the facades that were vaguely similar to those in his memory, but not the same, his heart fell into memories.

Every winter and summer vacation, when he returns to his hometown, he will come to these places for a walk, but it coincides with the winter and summer vacation, so he can't meet the former teachers.

This time, he was very touched when he saw it, because in half a year, these buildings could only remain in memory forever.

He also noticed that on some office buildings, there were even huge pictorials of the game "Arthur" pasted up, with different images.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but freeze when he saw one of them.

A heroic paladin in heavy armor swung a long sword and looked straight ahead.

The appearance of this paladin is exactly Vivienne.

The mithril acceleration armor and the long sword of the holy avenger radiated bright light.

It stands to reason that the butterfly effect he brought only affects the development of Arthur, and it is impossible to involve the operation of the entire game on the earth.

It's just that he has a bit of a headache. Players will definitely not be able to help exclaiming when they see Vivienne in the future, because the other party can already be regarded as the spokesperson of the game.

After silently remembering this, Zhao Xu didn't stop, and walked directly into an animation city with a pedestrian street.

There were quite a few stores selling console games and figurines when Zhao Xu was a child, but with the development of online channels and the transparency of prices, these physical stores gradually became unsustainable.

The animation city that Zhao Xu came to this time can be said to be the few remaining ones.

At the entrance of the store, there are large and small packages and packaged Taobao express delivery, and ordinary customers can only make do with the roads that are not spacious.

At this time, Zhao Xu walked into the video game store he had visited, and it was here that he bought his vr simulation helmet before.

Brother Guang, who was tallying the goods, saw him, and immediately spoke in his local dialect: "Hey, Axu, it's winter vacation. Why didn't it show up until the Chinese New Year? The good goods I specially left for you can hardly be covered gone."

"By the way, do you want to play this game 'Arthur'? It's been very popular recently."

As he spoke, he handed Zhao Xu a plastic-encased game disk. On the cover were Arthur's eleven major professionals, each wearing various adventurer costumes.

In fact, this kind of game disk is just a card with an activation code inside, which is an additional beautiful booklet with a simple job introduction and attribute and specialty introduction.

After such a layer of packaging, it has become a collector's edition, and the price has soared from 599 for the deluxe version to 799.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xu suddenly felt that the context of history had diverged, but finally returned to the same line.

In the winter vacation before the Chinese New Year in the previous life, when he passed Brother Guang's store, the other party said the same to him.

It's just that he smiled and refused at the time, saying that he was too busy to play games.

Just missed 4 months of precious time.

"Brother Guang, did you play?" Zhao Xu asked softly.

"Yes, every day when I close the store, I go online on time. Alas, there are too few specialties. I want everything, but I don't have enough of everything."

Speaking of Brother Guang, he seemed to be very interested in it, "It seems that you also play, Xiao Xu, let me tell you, you have to be cautious about this specialty. Now my elf archer ranger is planning to delete the number and replay it. After practicing, I just can’t bear to start with my 32 talent points.”

Speaking of Brother Guang, he couldn't help showing his color. He believed that Zhao Xu, who was also playing this game, could understand it.

An activation code can only be registered once with 28 high talent points, three times with 22 medium talent points, and countless times with 15 low talent points.

And only on the first day of the game will there be 4 extra talent points.

This is the most direct reward from the Arthur gods to lucky players.

Brother Guang was able to start playing with 32 talent points until now, which means that he has not died all five resurrection stones, and he has not even regretted changing careers.

Zhao Xu was about to reveal some inside information to brother guang at this time, when suddenly he glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw the slowly closing elevator in animation city.

A girl was facing him sideways, wearing a floating city-style robe and a cloak with a high-necked hood, holding a "high-level super magic instant power" similar to Zhao Xu's hand. stick".

It wasn't until the elevator door was completely closed that the other party disappeared from Zhao Xu's sight.

For a moment, Zhao Xu couldn't believe the absurdity of the inversion of time and space.

He glanced at the downward arrow of the elevator, then at the "3F" sign on this floor, and immediately rushed towards the "escape stairs" on the other side.

There are a total of 48 stairs between the third floor and the first floor.

Zhao Xu personally verified today that he needs to run in a few seconds at the fastest, and even at the corner of the stairs, he just drifted and turned sharply while grabbing the railing.

Finally, when he ran out of the stairs, he found that the woman who was wearing Master Arthur's robe and was about the same height and build as Antinoya was slowly walking out of the gate.

Zhao Xu rushed up and shouted, "Hey, wait."

It's just that the girl turned her head in surprise, but under the hood was an ordinary face.

"Sorry, I admitted the wrong person." Zhao Xu immediately apologized.

"Haven't you seen cosplay?" The girl thought she was trying to strike up a conversation, and after giving Zhao Xu a blank look, she continued to walk outside.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but patted his confused head in annoyance.

He has been staying in the university for the past few months, and he didn't go to the manga exhibition, so he didn't react for a while.

In other words, he didn't realize that Arthur had already shown signs of getting out of the circle.

Usually, he was bullied on the forums, and he browsed the classified sections with most technical posts. He rarely watched the player reality show, so naturally he didn't pay attention to this aspect of the content.

In other words, since all the players were inexplicably disconnected for more than half a day last time, Zhao Xu felt a little confused and felt that the interaction between the two worlds was more profound than in other previous lives.

After this twists and turns, Zhao Xu no longer wanted to continue shopping.

He looked at the time on his watch, and it was not long before Xiaowei made an appointment with him, so he directly rode on a shared bicycle on the side of the road and headed towards the KTV not far away.

Just when he had just disappeared from the corner of the intersection.

In the original animation city, two people slowly walked out.

They are also dressed in gilded wine-red robes, and the cloaks on their bodies exude the color of starlight.

It's just that the two of them seem to exude mysterious magic power, making people around them turn a blind eye to them.

"The world of this earth is really amazing. It is possible to project Arthur through such a small box and game account."

A dignified woman who looks completely mature and charming is looking at the vr helmet and the "Arthur" game board she just bought with great interest at the moment.

"Mayue, stop making trouble, why did you trick this thing with hinting?" The young woman beside her looked helplessly at her friend who was enough to cause trouble.

"Hey, little Nuoya, don't be angry." Wu Yue couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing.

It's just that no one can know the astonishing charm that is exuding from her body at this time, even if she doesn't have any special abilities, just her frown and smile are enough to move people's hearts.

The scorching sun at noon shone on them, as if they were gently distorted, as if they were being pulled by a mysterious force.

"It's strange, I thought I could meet him here." Antinoya looked back at the "prophecy" spell she made with a legendary spell, thinking about where her fate went wrong.

"What can we do when we meet?" Wu Yue sneered, "But speaking of it, the time for the end of this world will be brought forward?"

Speaking of Wuyue, she looked at Antinoya in front of her with a scrutinizing look.

"Maybe."

"Something went wrong?"

May sneered, she didn't support this kind of player logging in one year in advance from the beginning.

"Yes." Antinoya nodded.

"Because of the resonance of the transmission channel last time, the energy channel constructed by the gods may not last for a year."

At this time, the two were talking on this land, not caring at all that everything they said would be leaked.

An inexplicable mysterious energy coiled around the two of them, constantly whirling and dancing.

"That is, the plan to destroy the earth by the meteorite falling from the sky has to be advanced?" Wu Yue coldly commented on the plan of the gods.

"It's the 'Earth Human Regeneration' project." Antinoya corrected lightly.

"snort."

Wuyue folded her hands directly, looking at everything in front of her indifferently.

"So this time I sent you here to investigate the situation in advance? Or, I saw these huge pictorials hanging on the so-called tall buildings, and they are also a means for you to speed up the player's progress?"

Antinoya nodded slightly, "Yes."

"Wouldn't it be that he will be startled when the time comes." Wu Yue couldn't help but chuckled, as if it was a pleasure to see the other party surprised.

"If it's really decided, I'll tell him next time we meet," Antinoya said.

This is what it should have meant.

"Then how much time do you have left to re-plan?"

Regarding this plan, the gods have always implemented it through the Mage Association and many churches. May did not participate in it because of objections at the beginning.

She just laid out her own means quietly, waiting for the real change of the situation to come.

Countless forces who knew about this matter but did not have enough chips to participate, also waited quietly like this.

They manage to select suitable players, waiting for the day when seven billion souls will arrive.

"About four months left."

Antinoya said that her eyes had crossed the asphalt road ahead and looked at the blue sky.

There, there will be meteorites piercing the sky.
