Xiao Buli mused to himself that such things could happen, "Honestly, this is my first ti hearing about it, too. Go ahead and practice for now. Since there are no strict weapon restrictions in this ga, you can still learn swordplay later and learn harvesting in another place. After all, it doesn't hurt to have more skills."
Xiao Ge said, "That works for . The scythe is pretty cool as a weapon, especially that move 'Harvest Slash.' There's a chance it will sever limbs, and I can often cut off the legs of wild dogs, which then slows them down and makes them easy to kill."
Xiao Buli thought to himself, no wonder he could take on wild dogs alone.
Han Wenhuan also shared his experience, "Today I managed to level my farming up to LV6. In a couple of days, I guess I'll hit LV10, and then I should be able to learn spear techniques, right?"
Xiao Buli nodded, as he swallowed a big piece of scallop. That was when Gu Shaobang suddenly said, "By the way, Guild Master, you said that learning spells is hard, but how co I learned one on the first day?"
"What!?" Xiao Buli was startled, "Really? You're joking, right?"
Gu Shaobang replied, "No, I'm serious. I won a ga of chess against an old man, and afterwards he taught a spell called 'Fla Spirit Wave.' It's said to be ancient witchcraft and is quite powerful."
Xiao Buli was puzzled, "Have you unlocked the Mana system now? How can you use spells?"
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about. This witchcraft doesn't consu Mana, it consus health points instead."
Xiao Buli glanced at Gu Shaobang, noticing his complexion looked a bit pale, "Was your health points full when you logged off?"
Gu Shaobang shook his head, "I don't have the money to go to a clinic to recover health points, but I guess it will slowly refill on its own."
Xiao Buli said, "Then you should try to use this spell less frequently. Wait until I can get you so equipnt that boosts health points before using it again."
Gu Shaobang naturally agreed with a nod,
As they chatted, their enthusiasm grew, and they couldn't wait to get back to playing the ga. Their voices raised slightly, catching the attention of a chubby man at the next table.
"Hey, which ga are you guys talking about?" the chubby man suddenly leaned in, asking with great curiosity.
Looking like he weighed over two hundred kilograms, with a face full of flesh, he didn't seem like a violent or overbearing bully, but rather displayed an innocent curiosity, much like a wonder-filled child.
Xiao Buli quickly covered up, "Oh, nothing much. We're talking about a foreign ga that's still in beta. Even if I told you, you wouldn't be able to play it." The chubby man responded with an "Oh," seemingly disappointed.
"Foreign gas are great, much better than those trashy dostic ones. I played a ga called 'Jiuzhou Battle' not long ago and invested over two hundred thousand in it. But once the national war started, I was nothing special and was killed in seconds. It pissed off."
The chubby man seed quite affluent, and even though two hundred thousand might not be a small sum for him, Xiao Buli thought to himself that he had unexpectedly encountered one of those legendary RMB players, although it seed that not all RMB players were created equal, and this one was probably just average.
When 'Jiuzhou Battle' was ntioned, however, everyone felt a pang of nostalgia. Xiao Buli wondered how the ga was faring now since it had been a long ti since he last logged in.
Because they had all played the sa ga, they felt a sudden kinship and invited the chubby man to join them. With nothing better to do, they asked about the current state of 'Jiuzhou Battle,' to which the chubby man spared no detail, giving them a quick update.
Since the ga shifted from a pay-to-play to a free-to-play model, its popularity skyrocketed, but after a few months, it began to sour.
First, the players who couldn't stand being constantly beaten left the ga, followed by those who had bought equipnt but saw its value continually drop, exiting as well. With the introduction of the Ghost Server, the ga started to rge new and old servers and continuously released new equipnt. What you spent a million on for a Dragon Soul Set might beco worthless the next day.
However, the ga's company was good at hyping things up. As they continuously rolled out new gear, they also discounted older equipnt. What started at a million for a Dragon Soul Set now only cost a hundred thousand, enticing so players back into the ga, which kept it quite lively.
Moreover, they recently released an expansion called 'Four Barbarians' Expedition.' After players unified Jiuzhou, they could lead their armies to attack the barbarians in all directions. Each barbarian tribe had their own capital and boss, and each one was far beyond the current players' level, requiring better and stronger equipnt to confront.
If you went about it systematically, you would eventually get there, but who knows how long that would take. So, players would often spend money on decent gear before venturing into new territory. Also, the company launched a new event where the first person to capture all the barbarian capitals would earn the 'Heavenly Khan' title, along with a two-million-RMB cash prize.
Now, the in-ga city battles were incessant, drawing nurous wealthy players into the fray.
The chubby man spoke with great enthusiasm, and Xiao Buli and his friends listened intently. At the end, the chubby man wiped his mouth, "By the way, from what you guys are saying, did you also play 'Jiuzhou Battle' before?"
Xiao Buli glanced at his friends and then nodded slightly, "Indeed, we did."
