night of reincarnation

Wumo's team uniform materials were collected on the second day, and then a set of team uniforms was designed by Huang Mao's designer friend briefly given advice, red and black robes, shoulder ornaments and feathers Yu, as well as the robe and hood, are not particularly gorgeous, but they can be called simple and elegant. At least Huang Mao is very satisfied, and keeps recommending this set to Wu Yi.

Finally, when it was settled, Wu Yi asked the old tailor in the main city of the elves to order five pieces at a time. The tailor said that it would take a while to make the clothes, and asked Wu Yi to wait an hour before picking them up.

Because there was an hour to wait, the five people left the tailor shop out of boredom, wandered around in the elf city, and finally wandered to the martial arts hall in the elf city, where the sin addict suddenly suggested, "Let's go to participate in the group battle." Bar."

In the game, you can find NPCs to get rewards for winning contests. There is a "Contest Honorary Merchant" next to the contest hall. Winning contests will give you reputation points. Certain reputation points can be exchanged for honorary equipment and weapons dedicated to martial arts competitions at this merchant. , and even things like honorary fashion. In short, this set of honorary equipment has very good weapon attributes, almost one of the best equipment in this version of Reincarnation Night at this stage.

This seems to be a way to encourage players to compete more, but for some reason, not many people go to the competition.

The main reason is that this holographic game is too real.

You wield a knife and gun at others, whether you are hit by someone or hit someone else, the feeling of hitting and hitting the body is too real and strong, even if the pain sensitivity is adjusted down, you can still feel the pain, even if you know that it will not be in the competition Death is still inexplicably afraid of death; most of the people who come to play this game are ordinary people, who work hard and study honestly, and no one will often wield swords and guns in the real world.

Especially, when you stand on this stage with your own weapon, the opposite is your opponent, he locks you, you lock him, the shadow of the sword is close at hand, and the strong wind slips on the skin when you swing it, you can even feel it. From the horror and pain of the blade piercing into the body, all attacks and defenses will cause both sides of the battle to bear a lot of psychological and even physical pressure immediately.

Because of this kind of pressure, both sides of the contest will be tense and nervous, completely unable to pay attention to everything around you and concentrate on your opponent. You will not be able to help guessing the opponent's movements and attack methods. Every little sound and change will make you look like an enemy, and when the opponent swings his sword and cuts at you, you have even expected the pain of letting the blade penetrate your skin because there is no way to avoid it.

Then you will think of failure, you will fail in the contest, you will be defeated by your opponent, this kind of shadow and fear of failure will hang over your head, you may be hit and helpless, and then you will have no strength to fight back; but, You may also turn this shadow and fear into power, which in turn defeats your opponent.

Players who are not sensitive enough or even a little timid, after experiencing their first failure in the arena, they will hardly go on stage again. The feeling that they are almost fighting to the death will cause some psychological shadows for them; and There are even more players who dare not even go to the martial arts arena.

I don't know why, it's completely different from fighting monsters in the game, obviously there will be a clear feeling and pain when attacking monsters, if that monster has carapace scales, it can still have the real sound effect of a weapon hitting a carapace.

But maybe it’s because those monsters are too grotesque and have all kinds of shapes, and they are creatures that people can’t see in the real world, so people know that they are not real, they are designed by the game, and naturally the players will not have so much psychological pressure. So you can unscrupulously wave weapons at the monsters.

Therefore, when most players face their opponents on the martial arts arena, it is not like facing those monsters in the wild. They will have a hurdle that they cannot overcome psychologically. The martial arts arena is an insurmountable natural moat for them.

But the most important thing is not this point, but, as long as any player walks onto the competition stage, crosses this natural moat, overcomes this psychological pressure, even if he tastes failure, he still has the willingness to go on stage for the second time, then They will no longer step off the stage of the competition, yes, to some extent, they can already become strong.

However, there are some players who can step onto the stage even if they don’t overcome this psychological pressure. Most of them are personnel who are engaged in some special jobs in the real world, soldiers and policemen, who have learned various boxing skills, and are even hidden. Sexual psychopaths, cold-blooded killers and so on... There are also some who hold 'what are you afraid of!Labor and management are going to kill you! ' Mentality male players and psychologically rebellious middle school teenagers who think they are really omnipotent.

Apart from these reasons, there are also some reasons why the game is still in its infancy and in the testing stage. We don't need to go into it here.

Speaking of which, Wu Yi actually has the idea of ​​going to the martial arts arena to try. Wu thinks that people may really have that kind of nature in their bones, whether it is the sequelae left over from the "previous life" or his own true nature. So, but he can do it... fights like this.

It's just that he looked at the Rubik's Cube beside him, but he always felt a little uneasy.

His family's gentle and noble male god is obviously only suitable for standing on the stage and playing the violin!

But the Rubik's Cube here really didn't feel any pressure. When he walked to the edge of the competition stage, he dragged Wu Yi to hug him and rubbed hard. , and let Wu Yi and Rubik's Cube go.

And Rubik's Cube's clinging methods are increasing day by day, and his style of acting is becoming more and more unscrupulous and bold. When he finds that there are so many people who show affection in the game, and no one pays attention to himself and Wu Yi, Rubik's Cube is almost hanging on Wu Yi. Not coming down anymore, when Wu Yi tried to push him away, Rubik's Cube would still look at Wu Yi with pitiful and accusing eyes.

Wu Yi was a little happy and a little bit distressed in his heart, but he was very soft-hearted towards Rubik's Cube, and he thought that he could just hug him once, but Rubik's Cube hugged him endlessly, and he refused to let go no matter how much he coaxed him. In the end, Wu Yi Therefore, he still made up his mind, broke Rubik's Cube's arm and threw him aside.

The Rubik's Cube, which was thrown aside, squatted in the corner crying and drawing circles... Ah no, in fact, he just seemed a little depressed, and he followed the team honestly. Taking a quick look at the Rubik's Cube, Rubik's Cube immediately puffed up his chest, put his arms around his chest, and looked up with a cool and noble look.

Afterwards, Wu Yi led the team to the NPC in the competition field to sign up for a group competition. It was a group competition between five people and five people. Go to the martial arts dungeon, and then in the martial arts competition hall, use the big screen and 'foresight magic' to project the situation in the martial arts dungeon on the screen, so that the onlookers can see the specific situation of both sides in the martial arts competition.

In a 5V5 team match, two teams of five players are placed in a huge dungeon with complex terrain. The two sides fight and kill the enemy until one team is wiped out and the other wins. It is a very simple and rude way of fighting.

In addition to 5V5, this kind of team competition also has a 3V3 form, and team competitions seem to be much more popular than single-player competitions. Players seem to feel that as long as there are a few teammates around, fighting is particularly cool and feels safe. , There were also a lot of people watching the big screen around, and all the messy psychological pressure disappeared without a trace.

Therefore, although there were not many teams fighting in the martial arts arena, after Wu Yi and others signed up, the NPC immediately said that they had matched an opponent for Wu Yi's 'Wu Mo' team, and asked Wu Yi and others to prepare for the match in 15 minutes.

By the way, the NPC started to give Wu the relevant points and rules of popular science group competitions.

First, this is a 5V5 game. When players from both sides enter the arena, the system will automatically place the two teams on the two locations on the dungeon map that are farthest apart in a straight line. The location where they were born is their base. This base It is also the only safe area that will not be attacked.

This base is mainly to give players the final preparation time, and they can change their weapons and equipment and the medicines they carry. However, this safe base will only exist for about 3 minutes, and its security mechanism will disappear after 3 minutes.

Second, when the game starts, after you leave the safety zone, the names of your team members will be displayed in blue, and the names of your enemies will be displayed in red.

At the same time, the copy of the contest is a random map. The map may be very large or small, and the terrain is also random, which may be forests, plains, deserts or even oceans.

Therefore, in the contest copy, players can fly, fight in the air, fight on land, or fight in water.

Third, in the contest copy, players can only carry a maximum of 10 potions, which can restore blue blood or remove control and negative status. Each person can only carry 10 potions in total; they cannot change equipment weapons or use any restricted props in the field ; Cannot summon servants to fight (the orc profession has special skills for summoning spirit beasts, which can be used).

Fourth, on the map of the dungeon, some wild monsters will be refreshed at certain fixed locations. After killing this wild monster, the player will get the buff of the wild monster, such as the BUFF of attack bonus or defense bonus, and even reduce the skill CD The BUFF, this is very interesting, maybe it is the key to counter-kill with residual blood.

In addition to the above four points, the 5V5 competition also restricts the members of the two teams to be at least level [-] when signing up. In order to ensure fairness, the system will demote the highest level player in the team based on the average level, and the lowest When the player upgrades, even the equipped weapons will be processed according to the player's level. That is to say, in the contest copy, whether it is your team member or the enemy, your own level and equipment level are the same!

There will be no time count for this team competition, and the game will end when one team is wiped out.

After being popularized with these points, Wu Yi and his team came to a preparatory activity, such as repairing weapons, replacing some weapons and equipment, preparing necessary potions, etc. It was the first time for them to participate in this kind of team competition. In any case, the element of entertainment is more, it doesn't matter if you win or not, it's just to pass the time before getting the team uniform from the tailor mother-in-law.

But the preparation time passed in no time, and 5 minutes before the battle was about to start, the staff NPC in the competition field came to call for someone, and they wanted to take Wu Yi and the others to meet the opponents first, so Wu Yi and his team They followed the staff NPC in the arena to the pre-match preparation room, where they met the first team they were about to face.

The first opponent of the 'Wu Mo' team is a team called 'Black Sea', with four men and one woman, the same configuration as Wu Yi and others, but without archers, all of them are thieves, wearing uniform The thieves' costumes wear black thieves masks, and they seem to have come to participate in the team competition after being prepared. The level of each other is almost the same, and the equipment on their bodies is not like the patchwork of Wu Yi and others.

This is a very strong team.

Wu Yi realized this the moment he saw these five opponents. He felt that the five people on the opposite side should have known each other in the real world and had exchanges and even training, because the game IDs of these five people are also in the format of almost three characters. For example, their team leader is called 'Dianmozi', the second person in the team is called 'Jiao Sparrow', and another person is called 'Shuidandan'... such inexplicable names.

After meeting the enemy team, out of politeness, the two players shook hands with each other. As the captain, Wu Yi shook hands with the opponent's captain, "Electric Mouse". In a blink of an eye, when shaking hands with him, Wu Yi felt that his hand was being grasped very tightly, with the kind of force that wanted to pinch his claws to the bone.

Of course, this did not cause any harm to Wu Yi. After shaking hands, Wu Yi looked at his paws and couldn't help but shake them.

Then, after the meeting, the teams of the two sides stood in different magic circles under the guidance of the NPC and waited to enter the arena. A few bastards in Wu Yi's team were all arrogant when they started to sign up, especially That yellow hair kept shouting 'beat them all out! '

As a result, when he was standing on the magic circle, the yellow hair was wilted, trembling behind Wu, and said in a pitiful tone in a low voice, "Team... Captain... Great... Great God, we are still... still stop fighting……"

Wu Yi glanced at the yellow hair expressionlessly, his eyes were cold, and the yellow hair trembled even more with fright, and he compromised, "Okay, it seems that I can't leave..."

In addition to the yellow hair, the Thorn Night here is also a bit nervous, but Wu Yi is not worried about her, she is the woman who dared to go to the martial arts arena to fight with others in the early stage of the game!

Later, Wu Yi was still worried about his male god, but he looked back at Rubik's Cube and found that Rubik's Cube was still angry because Wu Yi refused to let him hug him and threw him aside. Looking back at him, he turned his head to Wu Yi without saying a word and expressionless. When Wu Yi walked over and grabbed his sleeve, Rubik's Cube's tail was up, and he stretched out his arms to hug Wu Yi and rubbed his arms against him. rub.

However, when such a group of people were waiting in the magic circle with various nervous emotions, the sin addict suddenly turned his head and glanced at Wu Yi and Rubik's Cube... To be precise, he was looking at Wu Yi, Under the black mask, no one could see the sinner's expression clearly, and the sinner's eyes were inexplicably glowing with some strange red, his look seemed to make Wu Yi aware of it, Wu Yi could only feel his back There was a creepy chill last time.

But when Wu Yi turned his head, he found that no one around him was watching him.

Back to the game, because in order to better distinguish between enemies and teammates, Wu Yi and others put on a uniform fashion, which is the white cloak that will be given in the novice gift package, because the enemies are all assassins, They were all wearing the uniform black costumes of assassins, and Wu Yi also had three assassins in his team, so the clothes were really easy to mix up, so he had to put on a cloak.

When the light of the magic circle came on, the NPC announced that the time was up, and then under a burst of light and a slight dizziness, Wu Yi and his group found themselves and others appearing in another place in an instant.

This should be the scene of a wasteland plain; it is the kind of scene where the sun hangs above the head, the ground is hard and dry and cracked, the surrounding area is open, and there are some unknown animal remains on the yellow land. There are not many green plants at a glance, just Occasionally, one or two withered trees stood upright, and there were even black crows parked on those trees, making hoarse and ugly calls.

The birth point of Wu Yi and others was under a certain withered tree. There were still a few crows parked on the dry trunk of the tree, staring at Wu Yi and others with their pea-sized eyes.

Wu looked behind the group of people in the past, and found that behind his group was a cliff abyss, which was the natural danger formed by the cracking of the loess land. The bottom of the abyss was so high that only hazy clouds could be seen.

Wu Yi realized that the design of the cliff behind was probably telling the players in some way: behind you is the edge of the dungeon map, don't go there, you will die if you fall.

Before leaving the safe area of ​​the birth point, Wu Yi and others still have 3 minutes to prepare. Wu Yi's guide elves reminded Wu Yi: "You have entered the martial arts dungeon--Huangsha Plain, and the official time for the martial arts competition is still far away. There are 3 minutes, please complete the relevant matters within 3 minutes, now the countdown is 2:59 seconds, 2:58 seconds..."

Because before entering the martial arts competition, Wu Yi and his partners had prepared all the things on their bodies, so this time they just checked, and after confirming that there were no problems, Wu Yi decided to briefly talk about the battle plan.

"Since no one of us has participated before, this time we are just testing the waters. We don't need to have the mentality of winning, and we don't need to be disappointed because we lose. In competitions like this, we will lose at the beginning."

Wu Yi took a deep breath and saw the yellow-haired thorny night, even the Rubik's Cube and the sin addicts staring at him. He was actually a little nervous, so nervous that his fingertips were numb, and he couldn't help reaching out to hold it. He took out the dagger that hung from his waist.

"The opponent is a team of five thieves. They will have a strong ability to advance and be invisible... I don't know how to describe it, but their main attack target is definitely the two archers in our team, so we only need to protect the two archers. That’s fine, let’s keep the five in a group and don’t disperse, and kill them when they try to charge into our archer’s face.”

There is actually nothing to say about the battle plan. Wu Yi said a lot and finally summed it up in a few words: "Hold the group, protect your teammates, don't die!"

After saying these words, the 3-minute preparation time passed, and the protective magic circle of the safe base disappeared. Everyone walked out of the base's birth point and walked towards the endless yellow sand plain in the distance. This map is really big. It can be said that you can't see the side at a glance.

Next to Wu Yi, the guide elf still reminded Wu Yi in a steady tone: "After leaving the birth point, the player will no longer be protected. There is no resurrection point in the dungeon, but priests and other related professions can bring people back to life."

"Random wild monsters will be refreshed at fixed locations in the dungeon. Killing wild monsters will give them additional BUFFs. Players should pay attention."

After saying this, the guide elves stopped giving Wu Yi any hints. Wu Yi and his group looked at each other face to face. It seemed that some kind of tacit agreement had been reached invisibly. , and finally followed the two archers, maintaining a certain formation and moving forward.

There is nothing on the endless yellow sand plain, except for the loess and dead trees, and the remains of animals with only bones left. Crows circled above Wu Yi and the others, with hoarse voices one after another. This kind of environmental rendering, Wu Yi Everyone tensed their nerves involuntarily, and the feeling of tension surrounded everyone's heart. No one knew where the enemy would pop out from in the next second.

But the enemy was obviously not as well-prepared as Wu Yi imagined. This enemy team called "Black Sea" soon appeared in front of Wu Yi and his group, but only one person appeared, and it was their captain. 'Electric Mouse', he was standing in the center of the Huangsha Plain, with a red name standing there conspicuously, as if attracting Wu Yi and others to beat him.

Naturally, Wu would not be fooled by this kind of bait that can be seen at a glance. He gave Rubik's Cube and Jingji Ye a look. The two understood, stepped forward to draw the bow, and aimed at the target over there at the farthest distance. He was going to lure Wu Yi and others to come up and beat his electric mouse.

But the electric mouse was quite clear, and he knew at a glance that Wu Yi and the others were not fooled, and even asked the archer to stand at a distance to beat him, so the electric mouse immediately disappeared without a trace with a skill of stealth.
