What if I become an elf?

As the wooden door opened, dazzling light suddenly poured into the dimly lit bar.

The strong stimulation of the sun made the people who were enjoying the intoxication of alcohol couldn't help but cast their eyes towards the door.

What appeared in front of them was a team of trainers with about five to six people.

Although they all looked tired and dusty, through the standard trainer uniforms they wore and the indescribable look on their faces that looked like arrogance,

Anyone with a little experience can tell that this team of trainers is definitely not someone to be trifled with.

Because it is close to the Jirong Forest, the residents of Mercury Town have seen a lot of trainers who come to experience and adventure, and naturally have their own attitude towards them.

Don’t disturb, don’t interfere,

The residents in the tavern basically just glanced at the door at first, and then looked away again, doing whatever they had to do, as if nothing happened.

The person at the head of the trainer team, who seemed to be a leader, was a strong man with a handsome appearance, and his neat short orange hair was particularly eye-catching.

Through the dim light of the bar, one could vaguely see that the other party's facial features were somewhat similar to Wendy's.

That's right,

The person who appeared at the door of the bar at this time was none other than Wendys' biological brother, the founder and president of the gaming guild "Sacred Temple".

Jacob.

"brother"

The sweet and clear girl's voice came from the corner of the tavern, attracting Jacob's attention.

turned around,

I saw a beautiful girl with lively twin tails, waving in her direction happily.

With a smile on his somewhat serious face, Jacob took some of the elite members of the guild behind him and walked in the direction of Windis.

As Jacob's goal is to develop the "Holy Temple" into one of the most powerful guilds in the virtual game Pokémon: World, he should be racing against time during the precious time when this kind of game has just launched. Improve your trainer level as much as possible, and use the power of the guild to widen the gap with ordinary players as much as possible.

But for a certain precious goal, after some choices, Jacob resolutely chose to lead some of the backbones of the guild to pass a series of extremely tedious system tasks to obtain the qualifications to teleport across most of the Silk Continent. To this place.

Obviously, this "precious target" naturally refers to Lu Yun, who was reborn as a tear-eyed lizard.

After confirming the existence of Lu Yun through Gerald, Jacob very decisively stopped all the guild tasks that were being prepared and carried out at hand, and chose to capture "Mercury Town: Tear-Eyed Lizard" as the guild's current mission. Primary goal.

There is no way. In the early stage of the game, a Pokémon with dark purple quality and dark gold individual value potential is too tempting for players.

For Jacob, the confirmation of the accuracy of the Tear-Eyed Lizard's information should have been a very happy thing for him.

But because of something he suddenly learned on the way here, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

the other side,

Gerald, who was sitting next to Windis, noticed that the president was walking towards him. His face was a bit unpleasant. He thought that the other party was complaining about the failure of his capture mission.

With a deep apology on his face, he stood up from his seat and said:

"President, me"

I haven't had time to finish,

But with Jacob's wave of his hand, he swallowed the words that had flooded his throat.

"It's all right, you're doing great."

Jacob sat down slowly and leaned his body on the tavern sofa behind him.

The cool leather texture, the soft cotton stuffed inside, and a small glass of silky and fragrant red wine immediately made his tired body relax.

He didn't blame him. He was quite satisfied with Gerald, a veteran member of the guild.

The failure in the mission to capture the Tear-Eyed Lizard was something he had expected. After all, this kind of rare Pokémon could be regarded as a small plug-in in the early stages of the game, and it was absolutely impossible for the system to allow them to obtain it easily.

It is enough for the other party to confirm the accuracy of the message.

There was another reason why he was troubled and depressed.

There was no small talk. After a brief greeting, he told the news he had obtained through in-game channels.

"Maybe you don't know that in the past two days, the volcano located in the center of the Jilin Forest experienced an unprecedented huge eruption. Most of the core area of ​​the Jilin Forest has been swallowed up by magma and smoke."

They are all adults with higher education and normal intelligence under federal supervision.

Jacob didn’t even need to finish his words, but his thoughts were already racing in Gerald’s heart.

The harm caused by natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions is definitely very serious.

Let's not talk about other things, but starting from the Jiluo Forest alone, the large area turned into a dead area caused by the volcanic eruption will definitely fundamentally affect the ecological chain of the environment in the forest.

Although this is just a game, based on the exquisite details that Gerald has experienced so far, it is like being in another real world. He has every reason to believe that the domino effect caused by the volcanic eruption, It's possible.

The collapse of the environmental ecological chain and the destruction of Pokémon's habitats have resulted in a sharp decline in the number of Pokémon, and the frequency of occurrence of highly qualified individuals has become even rarer.

This horrific result is completely unacceptable to the players who are trainers in Mercury Town.

From a certain perspective, because of the emergence of this volcanic eruption, they will inherently lag behind players born in other novice villages.

One step at a time, one step at a time.

If you fall behind in the early stages of the game's launch, it will be very difficult to catch up without making extraordinary efforts.

This is the negative impact that volcanic eruptions have on players from a macro level.

Narrowing it down to individuals, only for Gerald, Jacob and others, this natural disaster completely disrupted their plans.

You know, the place where they originally discovered the Tear-Eyed Lizard was right near the core area of ​​Ji Rong Forest.

Everyone who could have used system props to track them in the jungle now probably could only stare at the charcoal and ashes.

And this is already the best situation.

Because even though he didn't want to believe it, Gerald still had to admit that with the weak strength of the tear-eyed lizard that had just been born, it would be difficult for him to survive such a terrifying disaster that would destroy the world.
