Chapter 3 The Real World 2
Zhang Cheng began to carefully consider his situation.
First of all, this place should not be China, nor the earth. From the stone that resembles a human face and various details of its own body, it is speculated that this place should either be a game called "Quanrong" (although it is an unreliable result of intelligent translation software, but it will be named for the time being) or a different world that can be called the Quanrong world.
Secondly, he had no idea how he had traveled through time, so he had no clues to return to Earth at all.
Then, he had nothing on his body... except for his clothes. Although his body had changed, he was sure that he was still flesh and blood, which would hurt, hurt and bleeding (he was cut a small hole when he was pulling the weeds just now). Although he only had a slight thirst feeling now, I believe he would definitely be hungry and thirsty. Touching his body, he could feel the internal organs inside.
There is no body, and the world is in bleakness, and looking back is a dead end. Then the only choice is to move forward the same way and go to the first scene of the game, that is, the refugee camp.
but……
What will happen if I walk forward and go to the stone? Zhang Cheng couldn't help but think. Will an unknown mysterious force suddenly appear and start controlling me and using me as a puppet? It's like a player controlling his own character?
You know, he has done the same thing countless times. In fact, this is true for all RPG games.
As a player, it is natural to operate the characters he created in the game. It is absolutely impossible to feel inappropriate, let alone guilt. But now that he has become the "created character", he instinctively resists becoming a puppet.
Although the materialist worldview made him know that this should be a real world rather than a game, who can tell it clearly? After all, "time travel" and other things that are unscientific and unmaterialistic have actually happened to him.
Probably not? This is a real world... and since I have traveled through time, no one can play games in front of the computer now, right? He comforted himself in his heart.
After all, this is a stand-alone game... But who said that the "I" at this moment is Zhang Cheng? I may also be a cloned consciousness... The real Zhang Cheng may be in front of the computer screen at this moment, watching the game reading bar patiently, waiting for the game to start.
In short, although I know that I should go to the stone, I am still hesitant and cannot make up my mind. You must know that if this is really a game and he is a character in the game, then when I walk over, I will be completely controlled by others and have no freedom at all. Think about it, some invisible force controls your every move, making you let others control it like a marionette. Just thinking about this possibility makes people really creepy.
It should be said that such an ending is probably a little better than death. In the eyes of some people, this is even more terrifying than death.
He stood there, struggling inside, not knowing what to do. Then, suddenly, he heard a beastly roar!
Zhang Cheng's whole body was shocked involuntarily, and fear from somewhere suddenly grabbed his heart. All he could do was to turn his head slowly.
Not far from the slant, he saw the terrifying beast.
At the first moment, his eyes were snatched by the other party's amber eyes.
It was a pair of chaotic, full of beastly nature, greed, and the eyes of hungry beasts.
In modern society, in the reinforced concrete jungle, people also have the opportunity to come into contact with wild animals. No matter what city, there are still one or two zoos. Moreover, because of the railings and glass, people can calmly look at the wild animals in an absolutely safe environment. However, it should be pointed out that although those wild animals can still be called "wild and difficult to tame", they are actually in contact with humans for a long time and have become accustomed to the existence of humans. On the other hand, they can have three meals a day.
Relying on the guarantee, the zoo cannot let them starve. Although they are wild animals, they are not hungry beasts. There has been a case where tourists accidentally enter Lion Tiger Mountain and are bitten to death by tigers. However, tigers bite people to death rather than wanting to eat people, it is just out of hunting instinct. So when tourists accidentally enter, they are not attacked at the first time, but are only bitten to death when they reveal their flaws (that is, to expose their backs to tigers). These artificially-captive wild beasts are already a certain difference from the real wild beasts in the wilderness.
So this is definitely the first time Zhang Cheng saw this kind of eye. His instinct, as an animal's intuition when facing danger, may have been almost wiped out in the peaceful reinforced concrete jungle in the past years, but at this moment it was polished again, and he was clamoring wildly in his mind, making him understand how dangerous it was at this moment.
My throat was dry, my body was numb, and there was only one thought left in my mind for no reason.
The game of Quanrong is a fantasy adventure game of swords and magic... In other words, in this game, players have to face many dangers, go through many battles, wipe off the blood on their bodies again and again, and repeatedly step one foot in the coffin... This is a dangerous, wild and turbulent world. In this game, even a genius player like him has experienced countless pre-war savings and defeat readings. He has watched the scenes like "Victory and defeat are common in military affairs, heroes, please do it again" too many times.
So...Is my first battle coming?
Most of these games start with no one who starts directly by a bunch of monsters.
In other words, all such plots and rpg games are very similar in this regard. First of all, they are a teaching level. If not, there will be at least a plot similar to "teaching level". Let's introduce the story background and teach players how to operate characters, such as actions, battles, transactions, unboxing, etc. This is the prologue of the game.
Of course, Inurong is no exception. At the beginning of the game, the character created by the player will come to the edge of the big stone in the face, and then complain to himself and say a big call. The content is probably the destruction of war, and he escaped alone here. He is probably out of danger for a while, so he has to take a break here. Then the player can walk around in front, back and left and right according to the character's prompts, and do some simple jobs such as digging a pit and digging a tree hole, so that he can master the basic operations of the game.
After everything is finished, the battle is about to begin. A disabled zombie will appear next to the stone - yes, when the mouse is stuck on the other party, you can see that the other party's name is "disabled zombie".
Considering that this is a teaching level, it seems normal for the boss to be a disabled gnoll.
This battle is very simple - the teaching level is very difficult. Old players like Zhang Cheng will know the way to fight after a little look at both sides. Because the protagonist is unarmed and has no armor at this moment, and the image of the zombie is the opposite, with armor and weapons. Even if you think with your toes, you will know that the game will not let you rush up to fight the boss with your bare hands. Even if you don’t notice the problem of these characters’ shapes, at least you can see that the other party’s name is “disabled zombie”. When you see the word “disabled”, you can guess it’s almost impossible.
And after all, it is a teaching level, and the time for this boss to appear is always very standard. The player must complete the previous series of tasks, that is, the players walk around and take a look, dig a hole, and other small tasks before they can appear. Not more than one second, no more than one second, faithfully fulfill their responsibilities as a boss in the teaching level.
If it's a game, that's true.
But... if it is the real world, then the situation is completely different. For example, if you hesitate and refuse to reach the human face stone, then the boss will be unable to bear it and will rush over until the tasks are over!
On the computer monitor screen, it is one thing to watch a boss rushing out from the protagonist, and it is another thing to see a roaring zombie rushing towards the front. In the former, you can use the mouse and keyboard to control the characters to prepare for battle. There is no possibility of being caught off guard or having a too large mental impact that produces a shock effect. In the latter, like Zhang Cheng at this moment, he was so scared that he was so scared that he was panicked.
Yes, if you want to describe it, you can probably directly say that Zhang Cheng has already been robbed of his mind by fear at this moment, or if it is a bit vulgar, he is frightened.
In fact, when you first see the zombie, the distance between the two sides was still more than ten steps. That is to say, there was only three or four seconds. If it was normal, a person had time to take a lot of actions during so much time, or at least he had time to turn around and escape. But now Zhang Cheng's performance was shocked by the correct adjective: he stood motionless completely, and watched the other party rushing towards him, completely wasting these precious seconds.
In fact, he had long anticipated the existence of this boss. There was no way, he had been playing the Quanrong game during this period. This was the opening boss. He may not remember other monsters or battles, but he could not forget the boss at the teaching level.
But on the computer screen, it is just a blurry animated icon (the picture of the game Inurong is not delicate), and it is impossible for people to feel any fear. You know there is such an enemy, but you really don’t know what this enemy looks like in reality.
At this moment, in front of Zhang Cheng was an upright beast that was half a head taller than him even with his back and his legs. The spine of this creature was not as upright as that of a human. On the contrary, when it reached the shoulder position, it showed a kind of lower hanging, making its back always arched. Its head was very different from that of a human, and it had a head similar to a canine, but it was much larger than that of a canine. On the kiss of the dog's head, it was a wide open mouth, and yellow saliva flowed through the white fangs and even dripped along its chin. While its eyes were full of greed, it did have the light of a wise creature, and it was full of cruelty and violent.
The beast was wrapped in a ragged armor made of a mixed leather and metal. Although it was ragged, it at least wrapped around its chest and abdomen and other key positions. The exposed part had thick and hard hair. Whether it was hair or armor, it looked dirty, and was stained with some greasy and disgusting dirt that I don’t know whether it was minced meat or something.
Although I was walking a few steps away, I could still smell the stench coming from the other person.
The most important thing is its hand, which is holding a meteor hammer.
There was no room for discussion or communication in this battle, and the opponent's murderous intent was overflowing. It seized the opportunity that Zhang Cheng was so scared by the sudden change that he rushed up directly.
It was almost time for the time being that the zombie had rushed over.
Its reflexive feet were stomping on the ground, and every step sounded like a big drum hitting Zhang Cheng's heart. He wanted to move, but his body was as stiff as a stone. After countless generations of evolution, the human race has produced many excellent characteristics, but some instinctive reactions that can only be said to be very bad. For example, this state in front of him is the worst instinctive stress reaction: fear is like an invisible rope, which tightly tied his limbs, making him unable to move, and making him unable to make the right move. He could only watch the other party rushing through the last safe distance and waving the deadly weapon in his hand.
The werewolf raised the meteor hammer in his hand and hit Zhang Cheng with a blow.
If you want to say it is true, luck. Although the weapon of Meteor Hammer has various advantages such as powerful, simple use, strong armor-breaking ability, low maintenance difficulty, and relatively little effort, it also has several huge disadvantages, one of which is the slow speed of the weapon. Anyone who has used this weapon knows that there is an obvious time interval from the arm holding the Meteor Hammer exerting force to the opponent.
If the werewolf had a spear in his hand, it would probably be that Zhang Cheng could not react so much as to finish the game directly, becoming the most shameful example of the few bad examples of dying through time travelers. But after all, the meteor hammer was slow. The moment the other party waved his hand, when death was approaching his skin, he could even feel the heavy breath of death spraying on his neck, the shackles of fear finally released. Zhang Cheng's body recovered his ability to move, but although his body could move, his mind was still blank, and he could only act subconsciously by instinct. And subconsciously, the only thing he did was to scream and stagger backwards.
