Chapter 17 Another Group of New Guests (Part 1)
After receiving Cold Condensation Moon, many subsequent passersby did not have her strong acceptance.
It was until noon.
Su Ran had just finished lunch and came downstairs.
He happened to see Wu Lei and Ouyang Qing come offline together, which he found quite peculiar.
"You guys are leaving quite early today, aren't you?"
Normally, these four would never leave the Internet Cafe until it closed.
And almost every day, they would complain to him that the Internet Cafe closed too early.
Wu Lei waved his hand and said with a depressed expression, "Don't even mention it. It just so happens that there's a birthday banquet at the palace today, and my family insisted I attend. So I just had to go show my face first, and I'll be back after lunch!"
"Us too, it's such a hassle!"
Oriental Bright, Ouyang Qing, and Dugu Mu were clearly also unwilling, with expressions that showed they hadn't played enough.
Su Ran nodded and no longer paid attention to them, concentrating fully on preparing to start his game.
A fierce battle awaited him today…
…
Until more than two hours later.
"You guys hurry up, don't dawdle!"
"Do you still want to play games?"
"Alright, we're here, this is the place!"
At the entrance of the Internet Cafe, Wu Lei and the others rushed back.
However, upon closer inspection, there was another group of people, about seven or eight, following behind the four. Judging by their attire and demeanor, they were clearly not ordinary people.
Especially one young master dressed in luxurious brocade robes, who surveyed the Internet Cafe a few times and asked very doubtfully, "This is the Internet Cafe you mentioned where you can play that monster hunter game? It doesn't look special at all!"
"Exactly, this place doesn't look like what you said, where you can hunt savage beasts in another world. You guys aren't trying to trick us, are you?"
The others also expressed their doubts.
Earlier at the banquet, Wu Lei and the four felt bored and restless, so they were enthusiastically discussing the game.
Unexpectedly, the terms "hunting savage beasts," "New World," and "Ancient Dragon" immediately attracted the attention of many people.
One must know that Wu Lei and the four were known as the "Four Young Masters of Feiyun," and while they might not excel in other areas in Feiyun Country, they were certainly masters of eating, drinking, and having fun.
The others, of course, didn't believe that Wu Lei and his friends were actually going to hunt savage beasts; they just assumed they had discovered some new and exciting place.
Upon asking, it turned out to be true, and many interested individuals followed them over.
Among them was the young master in the brocade robes, the First Prince of Feiyun Country, Liu Chengfeng.
However, when they arrived at the Internet Cafe and found it was just such a small shop, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Wu Lei chuckled, "If you don't believe it, why don't you try playing it yourselves? But don't be scared to pee your pants by the savage beasts inside, those savage beasts are very powerful!"
"Are you joking? Savage beasts that even you four can kill, and you call them powerful?"
Everyone looked disdainful. They were not like Wu Lei and his friends; their cultivation talents were good, and almost all of them were elite students of the Royal Academy.
Since they had already come, they naturally intended to give it a try, wanting to see if this so-called computer game was truly as miraculous as Wu Lei claimed.
After the Internet Cafe's machines were increased, a new coin slot was added next to each computer desk, allowing for free payment and renewal.
As regulars, Wu Lei and the four were quite familiar with it, so they personally taught everyone how to play.
They guided them to pay, start the computer, and put on the virtual reality device.
As soon as they entered the game, everyone truly found their consciousness seemed to be sucked into this machine called a computer, appearing in a completely unfamiliar world, and at first, they were all startled.
Fortunately, Wu Lei and the four were there to explain and guide them.
Only then did they truly understand what playing a game meant.
It was indeed just as Wu Lei and his friends said, like traveling to another real world.
In this world, they had another identity and could fully enjoy playing and adventuring within it.
"Holy cow, this is too novel and too fun!"
These people had never experienced such a magical experience before; it was simply astonishing and breathtaking. In no time, they became engrossed in it.
After completing the Beginner's Guide, everyone embarked on the New World.
There are fourteen types of weapons in the game for people to choose from, and each weapon has different moves and combat styles. There is no absolute strongest or weakest, only what is suitable or not.
For example, the Taichi Sword cannot be said to be the strongest, but it is played by the most people. Why? Of course, because it's cool!
Everyone had just experienced the Melting Mountain Dragon and was still in a state of extreme excitement. After choosing their weapons, they enthusiastically went to hunt monsters.
As soon as they entered the Ancient Tree Forest, they encountered a Thief Wyvern.
"Does such a small creature deserve to be called a Dragon?"
"No wonder even Wu Lei and his friends can hunt it!"
Upon seeing the Thief Wyvern, so small and seemingly not powerful at all, everyone showed disdain.
When the Thief Wyvern discovered them and attacked, everyone remained very calm, just about to circulate the Martial Qi within their bodies.
"Huh, where's my Qi, where's my Qi?!"
Only then did they realize in shock that the Martial Qi in their bodies had disappeared.
"No, no way…"
At this point, everyone lost their composure and panicked, but it was too late.
The Thief Wyvern immediately pounced on them, tearing and biting.
"Ah ah ah ah…"
Then, a chorus of wails erupted from the Internet Cafe.
Some even fell directly from their chairs onto the floor, looking extremely disheveled.
"Hahahaha, that's hilarious, I'm dying of laughter, now you know how powerful it is, right?"
At this moment, Wu Lei and the four, who were watching from the side, burst into laughter at the sight, mocking, "And you guys are elite students of the Royal Academy? Without Martial Qi, you don't even dare to resist! Listen up, in this game world, you cannot use Qi to hunt monsters, understand? Noobs?"
"What, can't use Qi?"
"Damn it, I knew something was off when I couldn't use Qi just now. I almost thought there was something wrong with my body!"
Upon hearing this, everyone finally reacted, remembering their embarrassing display just now, and their faces turned red with embarrassment.
At the same time, their hearts were filled with immense shock.
They were completely captivated by this magical machine called a computer and this seemingly real game experience.
