Chapter 2: .another world
The Miracle Continent is the continent where this world is located. It is divided into dozens of kingdoms and empires. The vastness of the continent is beyond anyone’s imagination, not to mention there are still a few around this continent. Unclear islands and undiscovered areas.
On Miracle Continent, the closer the area is to the north, the warmer the climate will become. The air is not dry, but the humidity is not high, which can be regarded as the most comfortable living environment. The Kingdom of Celian is located in such a northern region, so it can naturally be regarded as a rich and powerful kingdom. However, no matter how rich and powerful a country is, there will always be some regions that are lagging behind, and it can even be said that the development of a kingdom is delayed. Although the reason is likely to be related to the local lords, it is not for ordinary people. Would think so.
This is a small village located in Sivir, Kingdom of Selian.
The size of this village is not large, there are only about 30 households in the whole village. However, because the village does not have special products for export, let alone merchants, even the merchants will not come to this place. Therefore, the flow of people here can be said to be almost zero, and usually few people pass by in a year. Although the village is not prosperous, it is at least not barren. Relying on hunting and two-season farming a year, the villagers still live relatively well.
It’s just that since a few months ago an undead black warrior who didn’t know where it came from occupied an old ruin outside the village, the people in the village have become panicked all day long. Because from that time, people disappeared in the village, and later it developed to the night when every household was locked in the door and did not dare to come out, because there were walking corpses in the village.
And because the economy of the village is not too good, it is natural that no mercenary group can be invited to help—and those small-scale mercenary groups, after hearing the exclusive vocabulary of the undead like the black warrior and the walking corpse, also I dare not accept this task. As for reporting to the lord, the village chief sent someone there, but it has been so long since the lord’s army has not seen the lord’s army to encircle and suppress, which makes the people in the village feel a sense of despair of being abandoned.
This ruin was once an aristocratic mansion. At that time, the surrounding environment of the village was pretty good, but with some human development and destruction, the beauty around the village no longer existed. Later, this mansion naturally disappeared. Was abandoned. Later, perhaps because of severe weathering or other reasons, the mansion collapsed and became a ruin.
At this moment, nearly fifty villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, looking expectantly at the ruins in the distance.
The ruins are not too far away from the village. Standing at the entrance of the village, you can still see the outline of the ruins.
"The village chief, those two children... are they really okay?"
"It should be... it's okay." The old man who was called the village chief crouched, and his face was a little uncertain. "That person warned us before this monster appeared, so... so he will definitely do. There is a way."
However, no matter whoever entered the ruins that are indistinguishable from **** in the eyes of the villagers for five or six hours, no news came out, he would definitely not think it was a good thing. It's just that they are the only person willing to help them in recent months, so even though so long has passed, everyone still gathers here spontaneously and keeps expectation and hope.
As soon as the villagers' faces showed disappointment, two figures finally appeared on the horizon.
Most of the villagers started rubbing their eyes, and when they were sure that they were the two people who had said to help him solve the trouble and then ran to the ruins, all the villagers cheered for a while, and then they were like The tide surged toward the two figures.
These two figures are naturally Sean and Cecilia.
Cecilia is wearing a black and white gothic dress, holding a golden book about thirty centimeters thick, thirty centimeters in length and width in her arms, her delicate facial features are somewhat expressionless at the moment. It's just that the gaze looking at Sean next to him is a little bit more resentful, and his mouth is still muttering from time to time: "Liar!"
Sean gave a bitter smile, rubbed Cecilia's head, and then said: "I told you long ago, don't run out casually, wait until I lie to you and then use fireball to deal with it, but you won't listen. , You must be so embarrassed, how can you blame me for such a thing."
"fraud!"
Shaun is helpless.
In fact, the tactics of entering the ruins to deal with the black samurai went smoothly at the beginning.
There are only about ten walking corpses in the entire ruins. With the cooperation of Sean’s swordsmanship and Cecilia’s spells, these are very easy to solve. Of course, the process is not very good. After all, for Cecilia In terms of evil monsters like walking corpses, it is indeed ugly and frightening. However, after meeting the black warrior, everything went smoothly, and it turned into a mess.
Originally, according to Sean’s plan, he was responsible for attracting the black warrior’s hatred, and then led the black warrior to the vicinity of Cecilia, and then Cecilia’s fireball technique would solve it. For this reason, Sean even Stayed in this ruin for several hours. But what Sean could not expect was that Cecilia was startled by a mouse, and then discovered by the black warrior, and then a series of embarrassing evasion and escape, because at that time the black warrior had already entered After the rage stage, even if Sean had experience in dealing with the black warrior, he did not dare to provoke him at this time, and could only survive until the end of the black warrior's rage time.
Of course, if this were the only thing, Cecilia wouldn’t scold Sean, but Sean had told her that this task was very easy, as long as she threw a few fireballs, it could be done easily. But in fact, Cecilia was almost stabbed by the black warrior. She was so positively frightened that Cecilia would certainly not show Sean a good face, but considering that she was only a twelve or three For the year-old girl, Sean really couldn't say anything.
"Sure enough, it's different from the game." Sean looked at Cecilia, who was still full of anger, and he murmured, "There are still too many unexpected factors. This is just a fifth-level copy..."
"What are you muttering again!" Cecilia glanced at Sean. Although there was still not much expression on her face, she was not as annoyed as before. coming."
"Nothing." Xiao En shook his head. He glanced at the villagers who were running over cheering. There was a little more smile on the original serious face. Although he looked quite embarrassed at the moment, he was confident and calm. With his temperament, it is still easy to make people feel like they have found the backbone, "Yes, this is no longer a game, but a real world!"
As if to strengthen some belief, Xiao En raised the head of the black warrior in his hand in front of all the villagers.
Suddenly, the cheers of the villagers became louder.
Just like heroes returning home in triumph, Sean and Cecilia were welcomed back to the village with great enthusiasm by the villagers. This made Cecilia, who was not very good at socializing, feel a bit distressed, but this Only then will Sean take care of her. After returning to the village, it was a grand dinner like a celebration. There was even fish food at the dinner. You must know that this village is not close to the sea. The main food is meat and vegetables. Fish food is generally only on major festivals. It may only appear at a time. The most rare thing is that the fish creatures at the dinner are very fresh, which makes Xiao En clear that the enthusiasm and welcome of these villagers are real, and there is no fake.
After the dinner was over, the villagers even arranged a clean house for Sean and Cecilia to live in. With this difficult but enthusiasm, Sean could only choose to stay in the village for another day. .
...
The north wind in the middle of the night was not as cold as imagined. Xiao En stood at the window on the second floor of the house, looking at the scenery outside.
After a while, Sean finally left the position of the window. He turned his head and glanced at Cecilia who was sleeping on the bed. Judging from the look on his face, it could be seen that the little girl slept very sweetly. And looking at Cecilia who was sleeping, Sean also showed a rare smile: "It's been a month..."
In the words, there is a deep emotion.
In fact, Sean does not belong to this world. He comes from a place called Earth.
However, even he himself could not explain clearly why he appeared in this world. He stayed in the memory of the last scene when he came to this world. It was that he led the guild’s elite group to open up wasteland, which was known as the most difficult one in the game at the time. One hundred copies. The memory after that is that he somehow woke up in a suburban area. Penniless, he had to face the chasing and killing of several local dogs. If there were hunters nearby, I was afraid that he had become those local dogs. The dog has lunch in the belly.
The next thing is that Sean tidyed up his thoughts and dealt with it with survival as the most urgent goal. As for why he can adapt to the pace and habits of life in this world so quickly, and even have a surprising understanding of many things, this is entirely due to the virtual online game "Miracle" that Sean played when he was on earth. "—Because this world is exactly the same as "Miracle"!
As Sean learned this, he also began to discover the secrets hidden in his body: even though he had only one level when he came into this world, and he hadn't brought the luxurious equipment and amazing wealth before. But his skill panel was brought over by him as he traveled, and many of the skills on it were powerful skills that Sean spent a lot of time and energy collecting.
Although these skills could not be used at the beginning, but after discovering that the world is exactly the same as the game "Miracle", Sean quickly knew what he should do. But even if he knew what to do, he didn’t realize how difficult it was until he actually started implementing these plans: because this is already a real world, not just a virtual game like a game. In many cases, you can care less about various situations.
On the Marvel Continent, Sean will not only face various death threats, but he will also work hard to make money in order to solve the problem of food and clothing, and even try to improve his level. In addition, there are a variety of practical problems that bother him, such as injuries, remoteness on the road-an hour’s journey in the game may become more than several days in the real world, even because of this. It is a real world, so naturally there will be no so-called blue bars of blood. Once the hand is broken, it is a real lifelong disability, and once it dies, it must be a real death.
But even so, Sean still did not give up, because he was very aware of the advantage gap between himself and others: proficiency points-he was just like a player in the game at the beginning, every time he leveled up, he could get two points of proficiency. point.
This is what Sean values most.
On Shaun’s skill list, only three skills have been activated so far.
【Sprint: Run six meters toward the front. Auxiliary first-level ordinary, level 23, proficiency 14. 】
【Continuous cut: Perform three consecutive attacks. Swordsmanship first-order ordinary sword, level 25, proficiency 24. 】
【Blade capture: The sum of strength, endurance, and agility is greater than the sum of the target three items to successfully seize the opponent's weapon. Assist the first-order special empty-handed, level 1. 】
It took nearly a month for Sean to finally reach the fifth level. With only ten proficiency points, he naturally did not dare to use it indiscriminately.
Because in the later stages, the player’s skills will definitely not only be so few, and the activation of skills must consume one proficiency point, plus the activation of special skills requires more proficiency points, not to mention that the proficiency points can also be used in The improvement of personal attributes or the improvement of life and professional skills, so the use of each proficiency point must be carefully considered.
The activation of general skills requires one proficiency point, and the skill like "Capture Blade", as a first-order special skill, requires two proficiency points to activate only. As for skills such as "Continuous Slash" and "Sprint", there are certain restrictions at the first level. Only as the level increases, will the power or other aspects of the utility gradually increase: for example, "Continuous Slash" "At the first level, you can only attack twice in a row, and at the second level you can only attack three times.
Even though the increase in proficiency does not seem to be high, it only takes three proficiencies to increase the continuous cut to level three, but in fact, every increase in proficiency requires long-term persistence, and the later proficiency The slower the improvement, the longer it will take.
And now the two skills of continuous cutting and sprinting are in the second stage, because of the results of Sean's training day and night in the past month-if you don't want to waste proficiency points, only this kind of persistent hard training can bring results The improvement has been made. After all, many higher-level skills require these low-level skills as prerequisite skills to be strengthened and improved.
But even so, Sean used four proficiency points to activate these three skills. In addition, in order to successfully seize the weapon from the black warrior, Sean also spent three proficiency points. In terms of personal attributes, in fact, Sean still has only three proficiency points left unassigned.
But Sean will not regret it.
As the commander of the elite group in the guild, Sean has a very strong logic of his own in principle.
[Charles’ Sabre, Minor Demonization (Bronze), Hardness 12, Sharpness 12, Piercing 10, Strength +3, Stamina +1]
【Item description: This is the saber bestowed by King Elder III of the Kingdom of Celian to General Charles on the eve of the outbreak of the Battle of the Northern Cold. This sword followed the life of General Charles, and was once regarded as a symbol of honor for the family of General Charles. However, afterwards, the sword lost its whereabouts because of the internal fighting in the family of General Charles due to inheritance rights. Now although you are lucky enough to get this saber, the magic power on it has been lost too much, and it has long lost its prestige. 】
This sword is the root cause of Sean's solution to the Black Warrior. Otherwise, as a Level 5 dungeon that was just for novice players to practice cooperation in the game, how could Sean be interested or even spend a lot of time and energy on it?
As a signed professional player, Sean has struggled in "Miracle" for seven years. He knows many things in the game. Although many of them don’t remember very clearly, he can still wake them up if he touches the scene. Sleeping memory. Like this saber, Sean remembers that it has a follow-up mission, but this saber will only drop when the black warrior is killed for the first time. In the game, Sean was with this sword. The sword passed by, but at least this time he couldn't.
It’s just that, from this time of action, Sean has found a problem: that in the real world, these dungeons can not be repeated like games, and any dungeon has only one shutdown session. And in addition, the copy also has a birth date. Like this copy called "Wandering Darkness" in the game, it only appeared a few days ago, and Sean used to get this saber. I visited this village once half a month ago, but that time the copy has not yet appeared. This is why the village chief immediately sent someone to contact Xiao En after the villagers discovered that the lord had never sent soldiers to encircle and suppress.
It took only half a month to change, when Sean came here again, he was no longer alone.
Thinking of this, Sean walked to Cecilia and re-covered the quilt kicked off by Cecilia. Although Cecilia always looks like a juvenile and mature, and sometimes speaks extremely poisonously, in fact, this little girl is only thirteen years old after all, and her heart still longs for the side of being loved, and Sean never decides From the moment he took Cecilia on the adventure, he decided to raise this little guy.
And when he thought that he might nurture a super magic genius, Sean was excited.
Because no one can understand Cecilia's personal attributes better than Sean! ;
