Chapter 2: The Butcher's Knife

1271 Words
Li Yunxi woke up early, full of energy. The helmet was still by the bed. It seemed yesterday was not a dream. Rare talent, here I come. The touching landlady even threw a slipper through the window to remind herself to get up. At 9 o'clock sharp, the game opened its servers. Galaxy OL, which has been watched by billions of people on Earth, officially launched. Log in, learn the basics of the game, choose the human race, class warrior, and your character is created. Damn, this game character looks exactly like me! I'm so handsome, I even want to lower my appearance a bit so as not to scare the kids. The magnificent visuals, the epic scenes, the burning battlefield, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers charging and fighting, the elves dancing wildly, the dwarves like insects, the magic flying wildly in the sky, the arrows like locusts, and the many dragons spitting saliva—Yunxi was shocked. It was completely incomparable to those garbage 4D movies. After the login screen appeared, my eyes lit up – I had arrived at the beginner village. Li Yunxi was slightly taken aback. The texture under her feet was almost the same as the feeling of stepping on real ground. "Respected adventurer, welcome to Stonesea Town, No. 1155, the starting village." At the spawn point, the beautiful midwife succinctly completed the delivery. Yunxi remained calm as she saw the sea of people in the newbie village. Before the server opened, the official announcement had stated that hundreds of millions of players in the Chinese region were already queuing up. It took Yunxi a full three minutes to break through the crowd and arrive in front of the village chief. She was immediately dumbfounded. Thousands of people were surrounding the old man. Although the players dressed in cloth did not dare to fight, they were already arguing in a chaotic mess. Looking around, there was chaos. "Indecent assault! Someone is assaulting me! Help!" A man with a pig-like face, screaming in agony, rushed to the village chief, received his beginner's quest with satisfaction, gave a coquettish sigh, flicked his pinky finger, and walked away gracefully, leaving behind thousands of people vomiting. However, many more people reached out their hands to the opposite s*x, only to be instantly killed by a bolt of lightning from the sky, sent away by the system, leaving behind a scene of wailing. "I just touched you, and you're going to lock me up for 24 hours? Do you think you're a cop?" Forget it, you guys can keep surrounding him, I'm going to find someone else. Who cares, he's the village chief, even a dog knows the village chief's got plenty of money. There were just too many people; I couldn't even get a spot for the automatically triggered newbie quests. There was a huge crowd in front of me. Yunxi pushed through the crowd. There were no fewer than a hundred NPCs in the village, and even the beggar with dog poop on his face was surrounded. He glanced at the wooden sword in his bag, then turned and left the village. I can't afford to mess with them, so I'll just avoid them, okay? In novels, the masters find hidden quests everywhere, and NPCs are begging and pleading to beg for their help. But look at these ignorant fools! They've never played a virtual game before, acting like they're fighting over a bridal bouquet. Level: 0 Attack: 2-3 Life: 20 Magic: 10 Defense: 2 Wooden Sword: Attack 1-2 Cloth Armor: Defense 1 It's okay, you guys can take your time. I've lived for so many years and I've only learned one thing: following the same path as ten thousand people will only make you an ordinary i***t. I have a rare talent, so I won't compete with you. I'll go my own way. The basic game information has been explained clearly when you enter the game. The current version of the game is divided into different servers according to different countries. Each server has the same races and classes, including different countries of different sizes such as humans, elves, and dwarves, and the classes are even more diverse. Li Yunxi felt he lacked both skill and technique, so he simply chose the warrior class, known for its toughness and durability. A knight would have been a better choice, but the role of a healer was just... well... Just thinking about 'Brother Xi, give me a little milk' sends chills down my spine. Looking around, the fields outside the village were full of lively level 1 rabbits and level 0 newbies wielding knives, spears, clubs, bows and sticks. Seven or eight people were surrounding a rabbit, and with one s***h, no one knew who killed it. They were arguing as they fought the monster. Yunxi lifted his leg and walked towards the distance outside the village. "I'm going to find level 2 monsters. I won't stoop to your level." This game is so realistic, I almost couldn't tell it was a game world. The virtuality is 100%, but the pain level needs to be lowered. My body is delicate, so 10 pain level is just for show. "Look, that i***t went to Wild Boar Forest." "Haha, it takes ten people to beat a level 2 wild boar, this i***t is going to his death." Yunxi ignored him and walked away gracefully. In Galaxy Online, players' birth is completely random. Guilds and studios cannot all be born in the same newbie village. Players can only kill level 2 monsters by forming random teams. However, compared to risking their lives and losing several people to kill wild boars, everyone prefers to kill rabbits that have no chance to fight back. You bunch of losers, I'd rather be born alone in the middle of nowhere, or even on a deserted island. Fighting with you lowlifes for monsters is not the act of a master. Sure enough, in the vast wild boar forest that stretched for several kilometers, Yunxi only encountered a dozen or so groups of people. They were all knocked over by the wild boars. After avoiding the wild boars and the crowds, they finally found a mountainous area with only pigs and no people. If I were one of those professional gamers, a top-tier expert, what would I do next? Yunxi stared blankly at the wild boars scattered everywhere, then blinked, a sudden inspiration striking her. Yunxi felt a sharp pain in her eyes, followed by a system notification sound. "Eye of Disaster: Congratulations, you have discovered a sick pig using the Eye of Disaster." Holy crap, that works too. The Eye of Disaster can detect anomalies in monsters and NPCs. Monster anomalies include illness, of course. Oh, I see. Yunxi was shocked. No wonder the 'Eye of Disaster' is a rare talent. It turns out that the painful probability of 1 can be saved by absolute quantity. There are two or three hundred wild boars in the woods. If you use the Eye of Disaster to detect any abnormalities in each wild boar, the probability is still 1. But if you scan hundreds of targets at once, the probability increases significantly. God-level talent, absolutely god-level talent. Compared to my talent, the Dragon Elephant Power is utter trash. This guy is destined to witness my rise to power. That sick pig lying on the grass was indeed a loner, and the wild boar was a yellow-named monster, an attack-triggered type, so it was a one-on-one fight. Yunxi, holding a wooden sword, cautiously stepped forward and thrust the sword forward.
