On the sixth day of the Labor Day holiday, when the players had just killed Queen Mey, Xia Shan was working overtime in the company.
As the second batch of players who were eligible to play, Xia Shan was invisible compared to the big players who beat up the Five Knights and Queen Mey in the Battle of Divinities.
Until now, Xia Shan was still working hard to save enough gold coins to upgrade her manor in the game. As for what Queen Mey looked like, Xia Shan had never seen her in the game.
She only saw some beautiful pictures of Queen Mey posted by some game bloggers when she browsed Weibo and forums every day.
"Sob sob sob, I really want to lie in Sister Freya's arms for comfort."
Xia Shan picked up her coffee and took a sip. This was the fourth day she had worked overtime. If it wasn't for the generous overtime pay, she wouldn't have stayed in the company to change the code.
"The servers are open, the servers are open, the servers are open!"
The Heavenly Palace No.13 pet robot suddenly repeated these three words. This was the alarm function that Xia Shan had set to remind Xia Shan of the time the servers were open.
"The servers are open?" Xia Shan immediately put down the coffee cup in her hand and picked up the VR helmet next to her.
The advantage of working in this company was that she could use the excuse of "program testing" to fool around and play games.
"Load faster!
The company's machines are really terrible! "
Xia Shan put on the VR helmet and found that she was stuck on the loading page of the game for a while. It was incredible that the company's broken VR equipment could run the game, and Xia Shan couldn't ask for too much.
What really made Xia Shan anxious was that she had also seen the two CGs released on the official website. The first CG was fine, but the second CG, "What is Home", made Xia Shan so anxious that she wanted to take the case and talk to the Heavenly Palace No.13, or talk to some of the planners behind the Heavenly Palace No.13.
Now, Xia Shan really found it hard to believe that this game was created by No.13 of the Heavenly Palace. Or … the characters in this game actually had their own thoughts?
This kind of thought made Xia Shan even more anxious. Her doll girl had her own thoughts, and now she was trapped in a forest full of monsters!
Very soon, the download of the updated resources for the game was completed. Xia Shan closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was already at the entrance of the Resurrection Cathedral in Lionheart City.
At this time, the entrance of the cathedral was surrounded by players who had just logged in. This kind of grand occasion was comparable to the opening of the server … No, it wasn't as grand as the opening of the server.
"F * ck!
My wife is missing. Have you seen my wife?
Such a beautiful wife was in the church before maintenance. Is there a bug? "
"Didn't you see the new cinematics?
The doll girl was chased by the Order and fell into another world. "
"Don't talk about that CG anymore. Just talking about it pisses me off. Damn!
Lionheart City doesn't allow us to kill the guards. "
Xia Shan listened to the cries of the players at the entrance of the Resurrection Cathedral. She walked into the Resurrection Cathedral with a heavy heart.
As Xia Shan stepped into the map of the Resurrection Cathedral, the voices of the other players gradually disappeared. The entire cathedral was so quiet that Xia Shan felt a little scared.
Although she was an invisible and noob player in the game, Xia Shan had reached Level 50. In order to earn money to buy the manor, she also participated in the Battle of the Divinities. However, she only killed the Zombie Soldiers at the edge of the Battle of the Divinities.
The seven bosses in the Battle of the Divinities were nightmarish monsters that she didn't even dare to think about. Fortunately, Xia Shan finally obtained a Shard of Divinity and completed the plot of the Battle of the Divinities.
At that time, Xia Shan was very happy that she could obtain a Shard of Divinity for free. Now, however, Xia Shan was not happy at all.
As expected, Freya was not here.
Xia Shan walked into the silent cathedral. Usually, when Xia Shan entered the cathedral, Freya would greet her, "You're back."
Now, the entire cathedral was empty … It was so quiet that Xia Shan felt a little scared.
"What is this?"
Xia Shan saw something glowing on the ground. She walked up the stairs and found that there were words formed by magic on the ground.
Xia Shan stretched out her hand and wiped the dust off the ground. Then, she saw the line of words clearly.
"Please don't worry."
"Freya left this?" The second after Xia Shan saw the line of words, a main quest popped up.
"Main Quest: Trace. Quest Description: Freya seems to have left the Resurrection Cathedral. However, the aura of the inscription that she left behind extends to the vicinity of the Trial Tower. Perhaps you can go there to find her."
As expected, it was a new main quest. This meant that the teleportation point for the new map was at the Trial Tower.
After confirming this, Xia Shan did not linger in the scenery of the Resurrection Cathedral anymore. She quickly walked out of the Resurrection Cathedral.
Outside the cathedral, there was still a group of players planning to form a team to kill the Order. Xia Shan ignored them … Instead, she met a familiar person at the end of the road.
"Forming a team?" Jiang Qiao saw Xia Shan's figure and waved at her.
"Hi, boss."
Xia Shan and Jiang Qiao had been friends for half a month. She was still a little reserved when communicating with Jiang Qiao.
This was mainly because Jiang Qiao did not play with Xia Shan much. The usual communication was limited to Xia Shan looking for Jiang Qiao to ask about strategies.
"Can I still be considered a boss now?"
Jiang Qiao pointed at the level next to Xia Shan's ID. She was already a Level 50 Mechanic. Although she had not completed the Awakening Quest, as a Level 50 player, she could already be considered a boss.
"Of course!
Boss, you've already graduated from the Black Dragon's Lair, and I'm still in the normal difficulty dungeon. "
Xia Shan's little head nodded continuously. Jiang Qiao's equipment was the Dragon-Extinguishing set, the best Summoner equipment from the Black Dragon's Lair.
Mechanic was also a Summoner class. The Dragon-Extinguishing set required at least three pieces to be able to show off on the forums and say, "Call me hubby and I'll carry you!"
Jiang Qiao was the kind of player who stood at the entrance of a dungeon. A group of players would pounce on him and say, "Boss, please carry me to the dungeon." Also, Jiang Qiao was wearing a pair of pixel glasses. Xia Shan remembered that this set of clothing was also very precious.
"Alright, do you want to go to the new map together?"
Jiang Qiao's equipment was all from the Leap Nuclear Guild. Jiang Qiao was really just a slacker in the guild's team. It was Zhao Mingwei who brought Jiang Qiao to get his equipment.
"Is my damage enough?"
Xia Shan was still very nervous. She could barely get by in the Battle of the Divinities.
The main reason was that Xia Shan did not like combat and was not very diligent in dungeons. She spent half her time training her combat level and the other half on her life level.
"I saw the guide on the official website. This new map doesn't require damage. Speaking of which, what level is your Alchemy Engineering now?
No … How many life skills have you learned? "Jiang Qiao asked.
The life skill tree was also very complicated. A single life class could learn many life skills. For example, an Alchemy Engineer could learn Construction Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Goblin Engineering, and so on …
"My Mechanical Engineering and Construction Engineering are almost at the Master level. The blueprints in Goblin Engineering are all bombs that I'm not interested in. I also have another life class, Architect. With these two life classes stacked together, Construction Engineering and Mechanical Engineering can be improved very quickly." Xia Shan said confidently. After all, this was her specialty.
Every player could choose two to three life classes. Life classes did not limit the player's life skills, but the corresponding life class would increase the life skills of the profession.
For example, a Chef player could also learn Mechanical Engineering, but the learning speed would be much slower than an Alchemy Engineer player. Therefore, when choosing a life class, most players would at least choose a profession in the same field.
Every life class had its own gameplay. It was like a collection of various small games, and the rewards obtained from these small games would be useful in the Holy Ghost … The Alchemy Engineer that Xia Shan chose was like a puzzle game.
However, as the saying went, a Goblin Engineer who did not want to be a chef was not a good Apothecary. The Construction System had endless potential, and Jiang Qiao was looking forward to the strange things they would create.
