The sword of the pinnacle of the country

Chapter 46

A burst of light flashed that the character was offline, and I greeted the people around me, and then I also went offline.

When I took off the helmet, instead of the depression and exhaustion I had before, I was replaced by a strange desire to express. Today's experience is really unbelievable.

I was the only one left in the dormitory at this time. Haozi went offline at some point and left. Looking at the message he sent on his phone, I realized that he was going to participate in the e-sports club activities.

Hey, it was really a mistake not to put two bottles of wine under the seat. Instead, I can only rely on soda instead to entertain the emotions in my heart.

The packing box of the "Kingdom" helmet that was sent not long ago has not been thrown away, and it has been randomly discarded in the corner. The customer service number of "National".

He took out his mobile phone, pressed the phone number, and put it close to his ear.

The cooperative promotional song "Battle" of "National" was playing inside, and just a few seconds after the chorus, the phone was connected.

"Hello, this is the official customer service of "National", job number: 0051, how can I serve you."

"I want to inquire about the relevant information of the game."

"please say."

I sorted out my thoughts and said: "My id is: 735862470. I accidentally entered the scene in your company's game "God Realm" in the hidden copy of Moon Lake today. Is this a bug?"

"Please wait."

After 1 minute passed, the girl on the other end of the phone rang again: "Hello, after checking, your account is normal. The copy of Moon Lake is a hidden copy at the beginning of the game. The scene you experienced is actually left by the designer. Easter eggs, that level will identify your account's personal information in "God Realm" based on your iris, and then generate a scene that matches the corresponding two people, and there is no such thing as the bug you mentioned."

"Is that so?"

"Being able to pass such a checkpoint, your strength is worthy of recognition."

I shook my head to myself, and then said, "May I ask through the serial number of the helmet to find out where it was purchased?"

At this moment, I suddenly remembered the strange helmet behind me. He could be regarded as the opportunity for me to enter the "Kingdom", although so far, I still don't know who sent it.

"Sorry, these are personal privacy, we do not have permission to inquire."

"OK, thanks."

"wish you a happy life."

After hanging up the phone, I lay down on the railing and drank the soda, the bubbles rolled down my esophagus.

Was it just an easter egg in "God Realm", but today it really reminded me of many old things.Even though I'm only in my early twenties, it's ridiculous to have such an idea for no reason, but for my life, these three years are really an extremely long time.

It is almost night now, and the tones of the wind in the distance are inextricably blended into the misty warm sun of early autumn. The dark and vast sky has become the background board for the ghostly shadows of tall buildings near and far. skyrim.

I pressed the top number in my phone contacts and dialed it.

"Hello," came a rough voice like a drake, "Rare guest, why did you call me?"

I poured the last sip from the can into my throat: "It's nothing, let's talk, are you free?"

"That must be there. I just finished training. What's the matter? Tell me about it?"

"Heh", I run on him, "Lin Hansu will train hard too."

The voice over there suddenly rose several decibels: "You don't know, I have never been short of weight in training in the past few years, and I am definitely a model worker."

"Don't talk about what's there, let me tell you, I encountered a strange thing today."

"What's the matter, it makes us Gu Qingzhu feel strange, let me have a good time by talking about it."

The soda can in my hand was squeezed into a twisted shape by me.

"I told you, it should be called Gu Nai. Forget it, you can't change it anyway... I played a copy today and returned to the 90th floor of the Sky Tower..."

There was silence for a few seconds, and then a voice came: "Is it Moon Lake?"

I was deeply surprised: "How do you know?"

"I didn't expect that, I also played. This kind of hidden dungeon is basically covered by professional teams in the early stage. First, ordinary players can't beat it at all. Second, it is not a small sum to sell this thing," Lin Hansu continued. "As expected of you, you have cleared Luo Dao's hidden dungeon, haha, as expected, you can cause trouble wherever you go."

I secretly felt that Lin Hansu was suspected of bragging about me, so I denied it flatly: "I just passed the first two tests, and it's far from it."

"I believe in you, I don't know you yet."

"How can it be, don't forget, I haven't played in the past few years..."

Before I could finish speaking, the male voice on the other end of the phone interrupted: "Don't be in a hurry to deny it, I think I know you better than you. By the way, I also played the Sky Tower in that level."

"...You bastard, don't be so ambiguous."

Hearing me try my best to cover it up, he said, "Do you think the 90th floor is just your knot, it belongs to ten of us too."

"But the reason why I can't pass, in the final analysis, lies with me."

"Let me tell you, you are just too sensitive, and you are tired of living after thinking about it." Probably because he was used to my words, Lin Hansu's tone suddenly rose, "Think about it carefully, the second stage of the boss needs You were the best candidate for a close-combat class to deal with him in the 60s, and even if you failed, it was still limited by the level of equipment at that time, so there was no way around it.”

I can still recall what happened on the 90th floor at that time.

Lin Hansu and I, along with eight other people, were the land reclamation team of the Sky Tower, gathering elite players from various professions, and kept the record for the fastest strategy in the whole server until we reached the golden seat on the 90th floor.

The boss has a very strange setting. When the blood volume is lower than 50%, it will enter the second stage. At this time, a melee professional needs to perform a solo with him for 60 seconds. After this period of time, you can continue The next process, otherwise it will be released depending on the AOE group.

We tried a lot of candidates at that time, all failed without exception, and I was the one who maintained the longest time and tried the most times, but the limit stayed at 55s, and I was still unable to take a step forward.

In that place, we were stuck for more than half a month. Although no one else successfully passed the level during this period, I felt more and more the faint grievances in the team that were about to explode in the group defeats. This is the prelude to disintegration.

Around that time, I happened to be hit hard again by external affairs, which is another story.Immediately disheartened, I simply quit the game completely, and there will be no more content.

Later, I heard that this situation continued for another two weeks, until the level cap was opened, and everyone updated their equipment. In the end, the level relied on the frankness of the knight to survive.

Maybe the fault is not really my fault, but as far as I know about myself, with my mental state at that time, I definitely couldn't survive the remaining two weeks.

"What are you thinking, do you think this is the case?" Lin Hansu's voice successfully brought me back to reality.

"Okay, okay, it's not the first time you've said this, I've been immune to it for a long time."

"Hey, don't deceive yourself and trap yourself in a cage. Don't talk about anything else, just talk about "National". Didn't you think you would come to play "National"?"

I am noncommittal, saying that it is impossible to completely let go, especially after returning to this world, I have to say that everything seems to go with the flow, as if I am used to the life of "Kingdom".

It's just that too much time has passed, and I couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Maybe, it's just that I'm just an ordinary player."

"You really don't think about coming back?"

I denied it with a wry smile: "I can't come back. I am very clear about my current level of competition. I am no longer the light swordsman at that time. The distance from you is even more distant, not to mention..."

"You man, the biggest problem is to take one thing at the other and lose sight of another, our captain mentioned you before..."

Thinking back to that woman, I was suddenly curious: "What did you say?"

"This... She said that if I hang out with you, I will be finished sooner or later."

"...You don't need to tell me that."

"Obviously you want to hear it yourself..."

I comforted myself: "That's all, it's not forgotten, it's a good thing to be a negative teaching material."

"I'm serious." Lin Hansu's voice suddenly became low and serious, almost making it difficult for me to recognize him. "No matter what others think, personally, I still hope you can come back. I know not It's easy, but it's not impossible, we are not like rookies a few years ago, we have more or less the right to speak, maybe we can do it?"

He is always so optimistic, but with a unique paranoia, maybe this is the reason why he walked out of the youth training camp and gradually grew into the number one assassin, but I will always remember him as the hot-tempered young teenagers.

From this point of view, I have to be more rational. The development of the "God Realm" e-sports competition has gradually formed an industrialized model in the later stage. The expansion of the professional scale and the inflow of funds have made it difficult for professional players in recent years. The barriers to entry are getting higher and higher.

Now in "Kingdom", the corresponding degree of specialization will only expand further.

Just two years ago, "God Realm" still used the youth training camp, a model in which all teams collectively cultivated reserve players.Today, due to the needs of the league, it has evolved into a youth training team for each team. Not only is the increase in the number of players leading to more intense competition, but the threshold for recruiting players is also much higher.

Compared with when I was in the youth training camp, the number of youth training players in the same period may have increased by more than five times. Those teenagers who are around 18 years old with energy and responsiveness at their peak are the hope for future career development.

At present, most of the star players and mainstays in the league come from the same youth training camp as me. That's right, the 2023 youth training is the one with the least number of recruits under the "God Realm" youth training camp mode.

But starting from 2023, the professional league of "God Realm" has entered the era of stars, capital inflows, the scale of offline games has expanded, and teams are no longer limited to traditional e-sports models.

In such a background, how can I eliminate the three-year gap and return to the very beginning?
