I'm also desperate.
Chapter 13 The Guard
He looked at it every which way, and from these fifty-odd words, he only gleaned one piece of information.
The opening of *Blue Sea*, this brand-new, epoch-making game, was the most active time for professional players.
So most of the content on the homepage was about *Blue Sea*.
Some were simple walkthroughs, some were explored game rules, and some were specifically inquiring about the world view. There was all kinds of content, and it was being spammed very quickly. Many posts were locked and required money to unlock.
Fang Yue also posted one, basically re-posting the *Attribute Analysis Compendium* that he had given to Shi Woliao and the others, and locked it with a price of 0.1 yuan, basically dirt cheap.
After posting, Fang Yue continued to browse the forum, specializing in those analysis posts that could be leeched for free, and learned a lot of new tricks.
For example, character customization.
It turned out that all players didn't have a character customization step when entering the game.
Instead, they randomly chose a body to possess in the game, similar to body snatching.
But this randomness wasn't truly random. After the system collected the player's data, it would try to find a body with a high similarity in the game for adaptation.
For example, if you were a beauty in real life, the game would find a beautiful body with a similar appearance for you to possess.
Or, if you were a child in real life, the system would try to find a child's body for you to possess.
At the same time, to ensure that everyone had a normal body to use, players were randomly assigned to different villages.
Most players were refugees.
This group of refugees seemed to have fled due to some event, and their identities and backgrounds were basically blank, impossible to trace.
A small number of lucky players with gift packs would have special identities or roles.
In addition, if all the refugees in a village were old, weak, sick, or disabled, and no character matched the player's adaptation requirements, then players would basically not be born.
Of course, there were also adaptation errors.
For example, a male being adapted to a female body, or a female being adapted to a male body. But the system didn't say how to solve this problem.
The game had just launched, so bugs were normal.
Fang Yue just listened to it as an interesting anecdote and didn't take it to heart.
Fang Yue focused more on how to practice martial arts and how to improve attribute points more efficiently.
Unfortunately, most of these guides cost money, and they were expensive.
In the early stages of the game, this information was the most valuable.
Fang Yue hesitated for a long time before painfully buying a popular martial arts guide post.
After reading the content of the post, he indeed understood a lot more about martial arts.
Excited, and plus being newly 'rich', Fang Yue bought two more posts, but the content turned out to be somewhat homogenous. He was so angry that he posted a few curses and was banned for 24 hours.
Helpless, he had to be mute and continue his free leeching journey on the forum.
It wasn't until his phone rang that Fang Yue closed the forum and prepared to return to the game.
Just then, the corner of his eye suddenly caught sight of the parchment that was placed on the table.
After thinking about it, Fang Yue picked up the parchment.
Soon, words appeared on the parchment.
"I made money in *Blue Sea*. The parchment was right."
"As expected, as long as I believe what the parchment says, I will definitely become a millionaire."
"Now, I need to enter the game and continue to improve my strength."
"*Blue Sea* has just launched, time is of the essence, I can't waste too much time outside."
It's urging me to enter the game.
Could it be… there are new business opportunities in the game again?
Fang Yue's heart stirred. He put down the parchment, lay back on the bed, and pressed the disc on the game watch.
"Enter the game!"
After Fang Yue entered the game.
The parchment once again began to show words.
"What is this idiot doing running out? Game, game, get in the game!"
"Does he not understand how precious the game's launch time is? He's a professional player, and he doesn't know that being one step ahead means being ahead every step! He's so stupid!"
"I'm so angry, so angry, a young idler, an old beggar!"
Even through the words, one could feel the parchment's gnashing teeth.
The angry parchment erased the words.
Those words no longer faded away slowly as usual.
Instead, they disappeared with a crunching sound, as if someone was biting off the words one by one.
It seemed that the parchment was expressing its emotions.
...
In the game, Fang Yue opened his eyes.
He was still in the same posture as when he left the game, but his legs didn't feel numb, instead, they felt warm.
Looking up at the sky, the rain had stopped long ago, and the guards who had been holding umbrellas had uniformly put away their oiled paper umbrellas.
These oiled paper umbrellas seemed quite precious. Fang Yue hadn't seen many pedestrians holding umbrellas along the way, only the patrolling guards had them.
In addition, the village buildings seemed to have a very good rain-blocking effect. Most people were huddled at home and didn't come out.
After waiting a little longer, Lord Han arrived.
"It's about time, how do you feel?"
Fang Yue stretched his legs. Although he still felt a little numb, it was much better than before.
"It's much better now."
"Well, that's good."
