Virtual World: Close Combat Mage

After leaving, Gu Fei paid no attention to the matter of the guild. At this time, he was rushing towards the Fountain Square in the center of Yunduan City. He had made an appointment to meet someone here.

From a distance, Gu Fei had already seen Hong Chen smiling and waving to him with a smile.

"What do you want from me?" When Hongchen saw Gu Fei coming over, he immediately asked straight to the point with a smile.

"I have something I want to consult with you on," Gu Fei said.

Hongchen smiled and said: "I am a self-disciplined game worker, but I will not necessarily tell you what you ask."

"If you can say it, say it. If you can't, don't say it!" Gu Fei also said happily.

"Well, you say."

Gu Fei took out "Eddie's coat of arms" from his arms. Hongchen smiled and glanced at it casually, but suddenly his eyes widened. Gu Fei no longer existed in front of him, and he saw the coat of arms slowly swaying in front of his eyes, like a cocoon of fireworms in the dark night, so vivid , so outstanding.

"Where did this come from!" Hongchen suddenly came back to his senses with a smile, grabbed Gu Fei's hand, pulled the coat of arms in front of his eyes and looked at it hard.

When Gu Fei told him what had happened, Hongchen's smile turned to stone in the wind.

"I checked on the official website last night, and there was absolutely no information about this coat of arms, so I wanted to ask you. If you can tell me, say it. If you can't tell me, forget it." Gu Fei said.

Hongchen smiled and raised his hand to pinch his face. While confirming that this was not a dream, he revived his petrified expression. After taking two deep breaths, he said, "This is a mission."

"I know..." Gu Fei said.

"Compared with other ordinary tasks, this task has some unique features. We call it a task chain." Hongchen said with a smile.

"Task chain?" Gu Fei suddenly realized that this term was mentioned on the website. Compared with ordinary tasks, it was more complex and highly random.

There is a reason for the name "task chain". If a common task is regarded as a point, then when several points are strung together to form a line, a task chain is formed. There are countless points like this in the game, and perhaps just an ordinary task on an ordinary street will become a key link in the task chain.

The task chain is composed of the system extracting from these countless points very casually and freely arranging and combining them. Then choose a suitable one from the game's huge plot library to attach to it, and then give appropriate rewards by calculating the difficulty of each link. When a player completes a task chain, the system will re-extract the combination and create a new task chain. The total number of task chains in the game will never change, but the content will always be different. The system randomly generates an identical task chain twice? This probability cannot be said to be non-existent, but it can be said to be negligible.

Under this setting, it is actually not difficult to trigger a task chain, because its triggering conditions are not so strange or unbelievable. But whether it can be completed after triggering depends on the player's pretentiousness. Because the points that make up the task chain are arranged in disorder, it is possible that the first step is a simple purchase and delivery of mail, and the second step is a super difficult battle... The player triggers the task chain at level 0, but it has to wait until The second step is only possible if you have a very high level. This possibility is quite high.

As for the task chain currently triggered by Gu Fei, the triggering conditions are actually not that difficult. Late in the game this is a common quest that's easy to pick up and complete: Trapped Eddie.

But one thing that must be emphasized here is: the late game.

Based on the current level of players, here is a recent example: Legendary online game masters such as Young Master Han and Sword Demon wanted to kill Suotu, and all they came up with was to block people in a small dark room and grind them to death. However, using this method, of course the first person to die would not be Sotu, but Eddie, who was in the same room, nestled in the corner with only half a breath left.

Saw the dead body of Eddie,

You can't get this mission.

But for Eddie to survive and hear his last words, there are two prerequisites.

First, we need to make Suotu feel safe, so that he will not take the initiative to kill Eddie next to him because of his sense of crisis;

Second, we need to make Eddie feel safe so that he can safely explain his funeral affairs.

To meet these two conditions, players have only one way: to challenge and kill Suotu.

Only by coming alone can Suotu not feel too much crisis; only by killing Suotu can Eddie take care of the funeral affairs with peace of mind. For ordinary tasks, Eddie would only have a last word; but Gu Fei happened to activate a task chain, so Eddie's last words also contained the content of the commission. But no matter what, this task only belongs to high-level and high-skilled players. Only players at this time have the strength to challenge it alone.

Hongchen Yixiao had some idea of ​​Gu Fei's skills, but when he learned that he had accomplished such a feat, he couldn't help but be greatly surprised. He had already considered how people like Gu Fei would destroy the balance of the game, but he only thought that in the battle between players, they would have the upper hand, but he did not expect that even the system BOSS set up in the game would be so vulnerable. .

Gu Fei was still saying something, but Hongchen smiled and ignored it. As one of the core planners of the game, he has been subconsciously considering whether it is really necessary to restrict such players in order to maintain the balance of the game.

"Hey! Hello!" Gu Fei's several calls brought Hongchen Yixiao out of his reverie.

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Fei was surprised, "Let me ask you, why is there no explanation about this mission on the website?"

"Oh..." Hongchen smiled and came back to his senses, "The task chain is randomly generated, so there is no introduction to the content on the website. Players can only explore it themselves."

"Then can you tell me a little bit about it?" Gu Fei asked.

Hongchen smiled shyly: "I am a self-disciplined game worker."

"Okay, I get it!" Gu Fei said crisply, "Then I'll go and explore it myself! Let's go!"

"Slow down!" Hongchen smiled and waved.

"Goodbye!" Gu Fei turned around and left.

After more than ten minutes' journey, Gu Fei arrived at his leveling place. Due to the skyrocketing experience level starting from level 30, Gu Fei had no idea how many days he would have to endure in this place. Compared to Gu Fei, the vast majority of players no longer choose such a single upgrade route of killing monsters. There are many tasks in the game, and the experience rewards are also generous. Although it is not as efficient as killing monsters and upgrading, fortunately it is not boring. Run errands, chat, and occasionally fight, why not?

But for Gu Fei, fighting monsters means using kung fu, and this alone makes him enjoy it. dull? If he felt that kung fu was boring, would Gu Fei still practice diligently for more than twenty years?

What's more, since he started playing online games, Gu Fei found that his kung fu has become even better.

What's the reason? It comes from what Sword Demon regards as an extreme operation.

There are so many actual opponents to compete with, and more importantly, he can chop at the opponent's vital points without any scruples until he kills them. This was unprecedented in Gu Fei's many years of martial arts training.

In daily reality, when discussing with others, you must emphasize the point to the end. After all the worries, the moves were somewhat out of shape. Gu Fei understood, but he was helpless. Life is not the arena in martial arts novels. The days of licking blood from the blade can make up for this shortcoming. Nowadays, online games help fill this gap. Although it was a bit of a flaw that his opponent couldn't confront him, he finally no longer had any scruples about taking action.

Arriving near the monster spawning point, Gu Fei bent down and stretched his back, loosening his muscles and bones, then drew his sword and charged forward.

Relaxed, really relaxed.

Gu Fei knew that all this was due to "Eddie's crest", which added thirty points of attributes. How could it not be a qualitative leap in strength? The mobs surrounding Gu Fei were knocked to the ground by Gu Fei at an even faster speed. He already felt that this monster spawning point seemed to be unable to fully meet his needs, and perhaps he should explore a more advanced place.

At this moment, a pair of eyes not far from Gu Fei was peering at him.

Hongchen smiled. After Gu Fei left, he followed him secretly, just to get a closer look at Gu Fei's background.

"It's so fast! Points for all agility..." Hong Chen said silently with a smile. Compared to guys like Sword Demon who are experienced in online games, he, as a high-level game planner, obviously has an unparalleled advantage. Sword Demon could tell that Gu Fei had added agility, and Hongchen smiled and could even tell how many points of agility Gu Fei had added. The error would never exceed five points.

"It also has power...but it should be the effect of Eddie's crest."

"Attack power..." Hongchen Yixiao mentally calculated the attack power achieved by Gu Fei's equipment, character points, and the NPC's defense and health, and took a breath of air: "Every move is the maximum attack... This... ...This is too perverted! Even if we design NPCs, we don’t dare to make the data so stable! This guy..." Hongchen smiled and his face twitched a few muscles, and he saw a fact.

For Gu Fei, he is equivalent to a character who already has a full set of skills. This is his skill. Moreover, in game terms, the initial proficiency of his skill is quite high, and no one knows whether his skill has an upper limit of proficiency. What's even more terrible is that this guy's skills will be the same as those set in the game. They will become stronger and stronger as the player levels up and changes equipment.

"Should we restrict such a character?" With this question in mind, Hongchen ended his peeping with a smile and returned to the safe zone in the city to log off. Gu Fei, on the other hand, just casually glanced at Hongchen's leaving figure with a smile.
