My Player 2

Chapter 9 The stars are shining

"This game doesn't have a social system. How about I create a group and have everyone join in?"

When everyone was receiving their weapons, Qian Peng suddenly made a suggestion.

Judging from the comments in the live broadcast room, among the ten players who got the starting qualification, he was the only one who started a live broadcast.

And there were at least two players peeking at the screen in his live broadcast room.

This one-sided disclosure of information made Qian Peng a little nervous. He was afraid that he would be hit by a club while walking on the road.

With this in mind, Qian Peng emphasized:

“Otherwise, it will be troublesome to contact each other after the novice tutorial.”

"How?" The Asian dragon man twirling his beard was the first to respond.

Qian Peng walked up to the Yalong man and said, "Knock, I'll sweep you."

Argonian: "Come on."

Li Li on the side looked at these Blue Star people's so-called joining groups with curiosity.

I saw "Amu Xiao" walk in front of "It's Drawing the Sword, Not Iai", and his eyes suddenly became dull. After a few seconds, they regained their original agility.

He nodded slightly to the Argonian, said "Thank you, Senior", then walked up to Golden Wind and asked:

"Are you a high-ranking member of the first guild, 'Golden Wind'?"

"Golden Wind" just smiled and didn't respond.

"Golden Wind" is the largest guild in the country, monopolizing many resources in the game, including alchemy, scroll making, enchantment... Even professional clubs focusing on PVP will purchase services from them.

As people joined the group one by one, Li Li noticed that when "Amuxiao" invited these people to join the group, he would make some commercial flattery, sometimes before joining the group, sometimes after joining the group, as if these guys were quite famous.

The most exaggerated one was when he walked up to the man with a broken leg, pulled him into the group, and suddenly covered his mouth and exclaimed:
"Are you Leg Master?"

"if not?"

The Shadow Clan member shrugged, obviously enjoying the artificial flattery.

Finally, while muttering to himself, “Why is there still one missing?”, Amuxiao found the dwarf who had been hiding in the corner.

Under the gaze of everyone, the dwarf had no choice but to go forward.

After the two of them stared at each other blankly for a few seconds, Amuxiao's expression changed from confusion to shock and then to astonishment. He stared at the dwarf in front of him and said in a tactful tone:
"Baron, the global group stage of the Expedition Cup will be held at the beginning of next month. You——"

"Does the club know about this?"

The Asian dragon walked over and stood between the two of them, his tone more serious than ever before.

The dwarf named "I don't want to pay the penalty" squatted on the ground, holding his head with both hands, and said painfully:

"I didn't know at first that pre-ordering for the nostalgic server would delete the character data, and the pre-order on the official website cannot be canceled."

"Are you the Baron of the STAR team?" The others also reacted.

"Your team finally formed a galactic battleship this year, and the race hasn't even started yet, so how come the pilot is gone?" complained the elf named 'Sakurajima Mai'.

"Desperate Expedition OL" is still hosting global professional competitions. Although it is not discussed very much, it was once glorious.

The STAR team, where "I don't want to pay the penalty," is one of the favorites to win the championship this year.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!” “I don’t want to pay the penalty!” He howled in pain, as if trying to escape from reality.

Looking at these strange guys, Li Li became even more confused.

He knew that these guys were players of Desperate Expedition OL.

After all, he posted the recruitment letter on the official website of this game.

We can probably guess that these people added friends through the Blue Star Network.

After all, their souls are still on Blue Star, and what came to this world is just the projection of their souls like the moon in the water.

But why are these people so sure that this is a game world?
What went wrong?
……

Except for the "Level 8 Hurricane" that Li Li left behind to "optimize the operating logic", the other players left the initial warehouse one after another after choosing their weapons.

Qian Peng walked at the back of the crowd, looking at the backs of these people, and suddenly he had the illusion that he was not worthy of standing here.

A retired triple crown player, an active favorite to win the championship, a well-known boss killer, an executive of the top guild in the country… Among these people whose foundation he recognized, each one of them could beat him in all aspects.

But on second thought, it seemed that his loss was the smallest.

Every single person here has probably been robbed of millions of dollars worth of gear.

The reason why they are so honest, no one goes to chop NPCs, and no one takes off their pants in public, is not because these players have high quality, but because of the terrible sunk costs.

The ban that NPC just mentioned is really lethal. Qian Peng sighed. It was less than half an hour of game time, and he was ready to give up suing the expedition company.

Because the lawyer had tactfully indicated that it was unlikely that he would get the money back.

With this much time, as one of the first players to enter "Glory Expedition", he might as well make good use of his first-mover advantage and gain a firm foothold in the game.

There will be plenty of ways to make up for these losses in the future.

Take the 300 million that Golden Wind offered for Embers, for example.

If this game really adopts the "real world" gameplay, it means that every mission and every boss in this game is unique.

On the first day of the service, this price was not really high.

"call--"

After thinking it through, Qian Peng let out a long sigh and looked at the spear in his hand.

【Hardwood Spear (Blue)】

[Attributes: Attack Power +30, Armor Penetration +10, Hit +5]

[Characteristics: None]

[Durability: 100/100]

[Weapon introduction: Industrial products on the assembly line, affordable, reliable quality, support door-to-door delivery. ]

"The initial weapon is a blue weapon with built-in armor-piercing and high durability, which is much better than the original corrosive longsword with only 30 durability at the beginning."

After introducing the spear in his hand, Qian Peng bowed slightly and walked out of the rolling door of the warehouse.

The next moment, he stood there in a daze.

A light mist shrouded the grass in the early morning, making everything seem unreal. On the construction site across the street, the cold light of the neon lights penetrated the haze and imprinted the outline of the distant city brutally on his pupils.

The huge advertising airship cruised among the towering buildings, appearing and disappearing from time to time, like a nomad in the sky, diving into the forest of steel and iron.

At this time, the wind came.

It carries the roar of cars, the hum of machinery, the whistles of factories, and the pulse of the city.

Standing on the edge of this city made of steel and glass, Qian Peng felt as if his heart was being tightly grasped.

He wanted to open his mouth and loudly express the unspeakable emotions in his heart.

But no sound could be made.

He seems to be in love.

But I don’t know what I’m in love with.

He understood why this game had no opening animation, because just a small part of this world was enough to surpass everything.

"The Living Iron Wall City!"

"Breathtaking."

"How many NPCs are needed?"

"It's so shocking! I want to make this scene into a dynamic wallpaper!"

"Shit, stop standing there, go into the city and explore!"

The audience in the live broadcast room were also shocked by this scene, but only Qian Peng himself knew that they could only see the city, while he could see, hear, smell, eat and touch the city.

"As you can see, this should be the Iron Wall City before it was destroyed."

"And now the time is——"

Qian Peng glanced at the abandoned construction site across the street. The current time was still flashing on its almost scrapped LED screen.

"January 1104, 1, Alliance Calendar."

"The Alliance is destroyed, the world is corrupted—

"From the end of the last civilization—"

"The day hope dies—"

"The day when the players of Desperate Expedition Online come to the world——"

"There's still half a year."
