I Kill Gods in Escape Game

Chapter 224 Competition Information
Old Man Zhu took the ruby ​​and looked at it carefully with his eyes slightly opened.

"Materials of this nature are rare. Did you get them from a copy?"

Lin Yuan shrugged:

"It was given by someone else."

Old Man Zhu might really be a weapons fanatic. He kept muttering words like "time" and "change" and suddenly looked up:
"I have an idea."

"Integrating gems into weapons will have unexpected results."

"I will give you your weapon within half a month at the latest."

Lin Yuan paused for a second. He really didn't expect that Old Man Zhu could make a decision so quickly.

The gems are useless in her hands, so it would be better to let the deep-sea weaponsmith give it a try.

Lin Yuan stared at Old Man Zhu for several times:
"Okay, I'll come pick it up in half a month."

*
A few more days passed, and Lin Yuan had been actively searching for various information in the Deep Sea Guild, including the Sacrifice City and her one thousand and one prey.

But as a new member, it's really annoying to just hang around in the guild doing nothing.

Lin Yuan had no choice but to participate in the training, from reading information to practice, training on-the-spot reactions in simulated copies to increase gaming experience.

…and she actually managed to master it.

Lin Yuan looked at the constantly updated clearance records on the simulator, lost in thought.

This thing was developed after the first simulated copy appeared in the sailing world. Compared with the previous players' real-life experience in the copy, training in a simulator is obviously a low-risk, high-return option.

"It's her again. The simulator has been fully refreshed."

Next to the simulator, a guild member sighed.

His sigh attracted the coach's attention. The coach stopped recording the data and looked at Lin Yuan's machine.

...Didn't you say you wanted a slow training pace?

The coach complained inwardly, then walked up to the member:
"Everyone knows to intensify their training when they first arrive. What are you sighing about?"

He then said to Lin Yuan who had just come down from the simulator:
"Do you need to take a break? There are many examples of people putting too much pressure on themselves and training like crazy, which can lead to mental and physical breakdown. There are many examples of people breaking down their mental and physical states in the Deep Sea in the past."

Lin Yuan rubbed his wrist and looked sideways:
"……Need not."

The coach couldn't help but shake his head and thought:

"I've only seen this kind of drive in people who want to participate in the annual event and soar to the top."

"Intensify training at the end of the year, pursue short-term strength improvement, and strive to gain a lot of fame and fortune in the limited number of games after the auditions begin."

"Unfortunately, competition in the event is fierce. If you rush in all at once, you often won't make much money, and you may even lose your life."

In a professional spirit, the coach gave Lin Yuan a brief introduction on what he thought were the annual events.

"I know you want to enter the tournament, but I advise you to give up the idea."

"Only the top four teams in the preliminary round can advance to the next round, and these four spots are almost all taken by major guilds."

"The other contestants are just cannon fodder."

Lin Yuan's boring daily training was given a reasonable purpose. She did not refute and asked:
"Coach, what are the benefits for our guild members to participate in the competition?"

The coach didn't realize that this question contained so much information. He thought Lin Yuan was asking about the competition rewards for the starting members, but in fact, Lin Yuan was just asking about the benefits of participating in the competition in disguise.

"There are many benefits, the most direct of which is the popularity and fame of the live broadcast room."

Coaches don't need to be very strong, they just need to bring out the strengths of each member.

For someone as strong and daring as Lin Yuan, there is no reason for him to be secretive when explaining the basics to him.

"After entering Youyue City, the adventurer's basic functions will unlock the 'live broadcast' section."

"If you are good at live streaming, you will have a steady flow of gold coins every day. With the invisible celebrity effect, it will give players a lot of bargaining chips invisibly." "Each guild has a fixed live broadcaster and a hidden killer."

Lin Yuan looked thoughtful and nodded:
"So Shen Wu's broadcast just proves that he is not that important?"

"Hey, you..."

The coach paused for two seconds before reluctantly admitting:
"Although you are telling the truth, don't let Shen Wu hear it. That guy has a fragile heart."

"In addition," the coach corrected him rigorously, "In Youyue City, most guilds are like this, but there is only one exception."

Lin Yuan blinked: "Who?"

"Thunderstorm, the founder is the most powerful person among them, and he made his fortune through live streaming."

Speaking of the legendary founder, the coach's eyes lit up.

Lin Yuan looked at the coach's completely different demeanor and suddenly understood what he meant by the "celebrity effect".

"When most of the players in the main city are fans, that person can almost command the support of hundreds of people."

Lin Yuan muttered quietly in his heart:
"What did that guy from the Thunder Guild do? Did he give these people gold coins and experience?"

"This support..."

Lin Yuan suddenly thought of a sentence.

——Come at the peak and abandon at the bottom.

The coach couldn't read Lin Yuan's thoughts, otherwise his face would have changed suddenly and he would have looked at Lin Yuan as if he were an alien.

He said enthusiastically:
"Xiao Lin, you have only been in Youyue City for a short time. You are introverted and don't like to browse the news. You just do your own things. So you may not know the famous Zhang Yunting."

Lin Yuan nodded pretending not to understand, thinking that she had already turned up all the information that could be found in the deep sea.

However, what kind of intersection could a legendary player like Zhang Yunting have with her? Lin Yuan must first understand the things related to herself, and then talk about other things.

"The first annual tournament held in the gaming world, he won the championship. He used the resources he earned from winning the championship to establish Storm Thunder and became the first player to take root in Lieyang City."

"Let me show you..."

At this moment, the coach was like a fanatical fan introducing his idol. Lin Yuan frowned subconsciously, and looked at the photos the coach brought up reluctantly with a hint of rejection in his eyes.

When Lin Yuan saw Zhang Yunting’s photo, he was stunned for two seconds.

"How about it?"

The coach's slightly proud voice sounded:
"Come to think of it, you two look quite alike. Could you be long-lost siblings?"

Lin Yuan pulled the corners of his stiff mouth and joked:
"How could I not recognize my own relatives?"

"Even if there are, I don't want to see them in the sailing world."

"This world is unsafe, and I don't want to be burdened any more."

The coach looked at Lin Yuan's expression:
"Lin Yuan, you're not his hater, are you?"

"Then I'll tell you in secret, the tournament champion is the ticket to see him."

Lin Yuan was stunned, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

——The coach said this on purpose.

So Lin Yuan smiled:
"Sorry, Coach, you're right."

"My brother died a long time ago, and I don't like seeing people his age so dazzling."

"Coach, if you keep mentioning this guy, I'm going to let him know sooner or later."

"——People who are too high-profile will die."
