Absolute Destiny Game

Chapter 23 Murder in the Night

Xiao Jie quit the game and looked at the time. It was only half past six.

Looking at the empty living room, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

In the past few days, he has been trying to find games that can be used for moving bricks, counting the inventory in those old online games in the past, thinking about recovering some costs.

However, at this moment, everything that he once cared about in the past seemed to have become meaningless.

After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Jie suddenly slapped his thigh and decided to go eat dinner first.

Dinner was simple as usual, with rice and scrambled eggs, plus a piece of tilapia fillet. There was no special seasoning, just smeared with pepper and salt and fried.

Xiao Jie was too lazy to cook on weekdays, but occasionally he wanted to eat some fish to supplement protein, so he would use this frozen fish fillet and chicken fillet to deal with it.

After dinner, Xiao Jie looked at the computer in front of him and couldn't help wanting to play in the game again.

But thinking about it, since he couldn't go out to fight monsters or work and do tasks at night, it seemed that there was really no need to go online, not to mention the dangers that Wang Kai mentioned.

What would the danger be?

Xiao Jie couldn't help but think about it, but unfortunately there was too little information and he couldn't figure it out.

Forget it, I'll ask him after I go online tomorrow, and I'll know it then.

Xiao Jie fiddled with the mouse unconsciously, thinking about playing other games, but he couldn't get interested. After experiencing the death game that was on the edge of life and death, playing those ordinary games was boring and he couldn't get interested at all.

Or I should go out for some exercise. My body is still too weak. Although it is considered good among professional players, it is too bad for a "swordsman".

I practiced a few times before, and the muscles in my arms are still sore.

It is necessary to exercise. I can't upgrade and add points for the time being, so I'll work hard to improve.

Train your body better, otherwise it will be a pity if your physical fitness can't keep up with martial arts in the future.

Xiao Jie digested the food, and when the time came to eight o'clock, he changed into a sports suit and set off.

Jiangbei City is a third-tier small city with a temperate climate. Although it is only mid-April, the weather is still relatively warm.

The cool night wind is not cold at all. The neon lights on the street shine on the crowds visiting the night market, which seems noisy and peaceful.

Xiao Jie walked on the street and subconsciously looked up at the sky. Although the stars were not very visible, the night sky seemed particularly comfortable, not at all the gloomy, decadent, and disturbing deep darkness in the game.

He walked through the crowd and followed the stone road all the way to the park near the community. This park was built around a small hill and is also the most frequented leisure area for nearby residents.

Although it was already night, people could still be seen walking in groups of three or two.

Well, let's start here!

Xiao Jie stretched his muscles and bones and ran along the road around the mountain.

He originally wanted to run a few thousand meters to warm up, then do fifty push-ups, a hundred squats, and two sets of fitness exercises, and that would be enough.

However, after running for only a few minutes, Xiao Jie felt a tightness in his chest and was panting.

Huh-huh-huh! This physical fitness really needs to be improved. I don’t feel it when I don’t exercise. Now I realize how weak I am when I run.

If I were to PK with someone in real life, I’m afraid I would be out of strength after a few moves.

Xiao Jie gritted his teeth and persisted. He finally ran a thousand meters and finally stopped in front of a hillside.

He leaned on his knees and panted, feeling that his lungs were about to explode. There was silence all around, only his heavy breathing.

Suddenly, a sparse sound made him a little nervous.

"Who is there!"

He asked in a deep voice, looking nervously at the darkness ahead. The hill in the night was like a pitch-black monster, until a pair of green eyes appeared in the darkness. When the thing got closer, Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a black cat.

It was a false alarm.

"Sorry, little cat, I didn't bring any food, huh-huh." He continued to pant while speaking.

The black cat looked at him with contempt while he was panting. The expression on his face made Xiao Jie speechless. Was he despised by the cat? No, it should be that he was overthinking.

Having said that, he still waved at the black cat.

"Huh-huh-don't look at me with that look. It's my first time running-huh-huh, isn't it normal?"

The black cat didn't know if it understood or not. It meowed, jumped lightly, and disappeared into the darkness.

OK, let's go home.

This half-finished night run was just a small episode. Xiao Jie decided to exercise regularly when he had time in the future, so he went home, washed up and went to bed.

Early the next morning, he entered the game early.

I don't know if they were stuck on time. When he went online, Wang Kai and I Yu Chengxian had already appeared in the village square and were chatting about something.

"Haha, Brother Suifeng, you're here early."

"You're here early too. What dangers are there after dark?" Xiao Jie asked the question in his mind as soon as they met.

"Have you noticed that there are no stars in the sky in this game?"

Xiao Jie nodded, "It seems to be true. It feels like once the sun sets, it's pitch black and you can't see anything. There's not a single star in the sky, and the moon is red. What's the meaning?"

Wang Kai said: "There are some sayings in it. The stars in this world have fallen. That's because the stars have a corresponding relationship with the gods in the sky, such as the Southern Dipper Star God, the Northern Dipper Star God, the 20-Eight Mansions, the Nine Stars, and Taibai Jinxing.

Because the gods have fallen, the stars have all disappeared.

Or you can say they are invisible.

And these star gods are used to monitor the world. Now that everything is gone, those demons and monsters are naturally unrestrained, so they all run out to harm people at night. In game terms, the challenge level of monsters will double at night.

Many special monsters will appear at night, and some safe areas will become very dangerous at night, and even hidden bosses will appear. "

Xiao Jie said: "But we are in the village."

Wang Kai nodded, "The village is indeed relatively safe, but it is not absolutely safe. Although the village wall can isolate most monsters, some things cannot be stopped. There will always be some. So even in the village at night, you may encounter monsters.

And some ghost-like monsters can also possess players, and then attack the surrounding players and NPCs.

In the past, when no one knew about this kind of thing, someone was hanging up in the village at night, and was inexplicably possessed, killing people around him, and several died, and he was also killed by the militia.

And once you enter the battle, you can't log off, so it's better not to stay in the village at night.

I'll teach you a trick. If you suddenly enter the battle at night but can't see the monster, then you must have encountered a ghost. At this time, you must remember to run to the ancestral hall. The ancestral hall is blessed by the ancestors, and ghosts and gods are not invaded. It's basically safe to go in.

But it's better not to encounter such things as ghosts. If you are killed in seconds, you won't have time to run. So if there is nothing special at night, you should log off early to avoid danger. "

Xiao Jie finally understood.
