Chapter 20 Death Penalty Mechanism

"Lao Ye! Ah! Lao Ye! I'm sorry for you, Lao Ye! (Eggplant Crying Horse.jpg)"

Xu Ruofeng expressed his deep guilt towards Lao Ye in the group as soon as he got offline.

"What a big deal, you made it seem like I was dead. Well, I am indeed dead, but it's not like I can't be resurrected."

Lao Ye was very generous and didn't mean to blame Xu Ruofeng. He knew that even if he didn't climb the tree, he wouldn't be able to run very far.

"No matter what, thank you. If you hadn't lured the trap bear away, none of us might have been able to escape."

After Chen Yan thanked Lao Ye, he continued typing and asked:

"You shouldn't feel any pain when you die, right? Is the punishment after death severe?"

"There was no pain. First my vision went black, and then I went offline. I didn't even react."

"The punishment is not bad. No level experience will be deducted. Maybe because I am still at level 0 and there is nothing to deduct? Also, the resurrection time is one day. If you die multiple times in a short period of time, the resurrection time will be extended."

"Resurrection also requires deducting a certain amount of Elf Coins. Elf Coins are the game currency obtained after completing tasks. It is the same as the resurrection time. If you die frequently, more Elf Coins will be deducted."

Lao Ye told all the information he knew.

"But haven't we completed not a single task? How can you be resurrected without elf coins?"

"I owe you. It will be deducted from the reward after completing the task."

After reading the message sent by Lao Ye, Chen Yan thought for a while, then typed in the group:

"The death penalty mechanism in this game is a bit strange."

As soon as Xu Ruofeng saw these words, he knew that Chen Yan was going to talk at length again.

"The bench is ready, please start your performance~"

"Actually, you will understand if I briefly explain it. The death penalty mechanism of most games is helpful to the game itself. Take early arcade games as an example. Players can get more game coins by dying."

"Another example is the online games from many years ago. Players would lose levels and equipment after death. In order to re-upgrade and obtain equipment, they would invest more time and money in the game."

"Therefore, many game manufacturers will design gameplay such as siege, and even find some agents to guide players to fight each other. The purpose is to increase the number of player deaths and thereby obtain more profits."

"But the punishment mechanism of this game is very strange. It is not to extend the player's playing time, otherwise the resurrection time will not be as long as one day, nor is it to gain profits from the players. All the game currency is used for resurrection."

"This mechanism seems to be just to allow players to avoid death as much as possible, and it does not help the game."

Chen Yan expressed his doubts. He really couldn't understand why the punishment mechanism was set up like this.

"Let me tell you, you just think too much. You don't care why they set it up like this. As long as it doesn't delay our fun."

Seeing Xu Ruofeng's speech, Chen Yan just wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, what he said was not unreasonable.

I am just a player, why should I think about planning?

It seems that the impact of virtual reality games is too great, which makes him always feel that every aspect of this game is not simple.

Chen Yan reflected on himself and realized that he could no longer look at this game from the perspective of a reviewer, otherwise he would be tired from playing it.

You still have to truly enjoy this game as a player.

"It's true that I thought too much, and the occupational disease occurred again. In short, it's up to you whether you want to die or not. Time in the early stages of the game is still precious."

"I understand, understand. When the time comes that you are really in danger, just run faster than West Wind~"

"You're kidding, can you outrun me with your short legs?"

"In the worst case, I'll let the orb silk spider spin silk and tie you up~"

"Damn it! The most vicious woman has a heart! She bullied me for not having Pokémon, right?"

The group started to get noisy.

When the players went online the next day, Lao Ye was not found.

"It seems that the resurrection time is really one day, Lao Ye will not be online until noon."

"What do we do now, continue with our daily tasks?"

While the players were still discussing what to do today, a servant came to deliver a message:

"The lord said that he is going to fight against the trap bears today. Those who are willing to go to the city gate to gather with him, and those who are not willing can stay in the territory to complete the tasks of the mission station."

The players looked at each other and made a decision unanimously.

"Definitely go, I haven't seen a real Pokémon battle yet."

"The mission can be completed at any time. There are not many opportunities to watch this kind of battle."

"I want to avenge Lao Ye!"

So the four players came to the city gate and headed to the Firefly Forest with Ryan.

It didn't take long for everyone to arrive at the place where they had logged the wood yesterday.

I saw a mess all around, and the trees were covered with scratches.

"This circle bear has such a bad temper. Do you think our lord can beat it?"

Xu Ruofeng asked quietly.

"You can definitely defeat it. Have you ever seen a game protagonist defeated by the initial BOSS? Just watch this battle as a cutscene."

"Yes, but unfortunately there are no melon seeds, peanuts or anything like that. It's a bit boring to watch."

"I have popcorn and Coke, do you want it?"

"Really? Give me some now!"

"Get out of here! You can't hear any good words, can you? Are you really here to watch a movie?!"

Chen Yan's eyes almost rolled to the sky.

Ryan didn't know that the players were full of confidence in him. To be honest, he himself was not completely sure that he could defeat the ursine.

But at this point, Ryan didn't think much about it. He took out a can of sweet from the panel, opened the lid, and let the fragrance drift around.

Soon, accompanied by the slight tremor of the ground and the roar, the ursine ran out from the depths of the forest.

"Roar!!"

It took a look at the sweet in Ryan's hand, its eyes full of greed and ferocity, and then it roared and pounced on Ryan.

Facing the aggressive ursine, Ryan did not panic.

He first took out a sticky ball and hit the ursine accurately, successfully restricting its movement.

Then he released three Pokémon.

"Spy, stare and gather your energy!"

"Cocodora, harden and use Rock Blockade!"

"Tian Zhuzhu, use Get Along and prepare to release the Green Grass Ground!"

Ryan issued a series of instructions. He wanted to take advantage of the limited movement of the Circle Bear to weaken its combat effectiveness as much as possible, while improving his own combat effectiveness.

After this set of skills, the attack, defense and speed of the Circle Bear were weakened to a certain extent.

"Roar!"

The Circle Bear also felt the decline in its own strength. It struggled to tear the white sticky substance on its body, trying to get rid of the shackles of the sticky balls.

Ryan certainly would not give it this opportunity, and then ordered:

"Spy, use Split!"

Spy stopped gathering its energy, and with a flap of its wings, it came to the Circle Bear, raised its sickle-like arms and chopped it down fiercely.

The Circle Bear wanted to raise its arms to resist, but the sticky balls hindered its movement, so it could only let Spy's attack fall on it.

"Roar!"

This move successfully hit the vital point of the ursine, and it roared in pain.

"Then use the combo, Kokodora, hit it with your head!"

Ryan did not hesitate to order the Pokémon to continue attacking while he was weak.

"Kuku!"

Kokodora gathered energy to its head and then slammed into the ursine.

The ursine was already unstable due to the attack of the sticky balls and Scyther, and after this collision, it fell directly on its back.

"Give it the last blow, Scyther, combo!"

The combo will increase the power of the move after multiple hits. Scyther had hit it twice before, so the power of this combo is extremely strong.

"Roar~"

With a wail, the ursine lay on the ground without moving.

"Is this... successful? Is the Lord so strong?"

"This series of attacks dazzled me. The battles between Pokémon are so intense!"

"I also want to command Pokémon to fight!"

The players were discussing excitedly on the side. This battle aroused their desire for Pokémon battles.

"Did he defeat it?"

Looking at the motionless Bearcat, Ryan was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he found that Scyther did not come back, but stared at the Bearcat lying on the ground with a serious look.

"Could it be..."

Before Ryan could react, the Bearcat on the ground suddenly stood up, looked at Ryan with red eyes, and roared.

"Roar! Roar!"

"Tsk, this time there is a fight!"
