Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Chapter 196 Maimai, I really like you!

Looking at the hustle and bustle around him, Ji Ming knew that his guess was completely wrong.

Imaginary pioneer market:

Professional players, a skilled team, the classic style of a magical world, and alien NPCs walking around.

The actual pioneer market:

"Take a look, take a look, the ancient metaphysics from the far east!"

There is a person who puts a piece of yellow cloth in front of him, pinches his fingers, and asks everyone "Who do you think you are?"

"Brother, the resources that just arrived are cheap!"

One was wrapped in a mysterious coat, with various quality categories and prices written on the lining.

“This dog friend, let’s learn about roasted turtle back meat. It’s a fresh ingredient we just got from the Iron Hoof Tribe!”

There is also a barbecue stall where you can grind wild spices while brushing sauce.

The only similarity is probably that while they are busy with the business at hand, they also hold a live camera.

I casually found a few exchange points and purchased some newly released resources. Ji Ming walked around the market and found a familiar figure.

"If you want to listen to any other songs, you can request them in the live broadcast room. Our 416 dormitory group will definitely respond to your requests!"

The person holding the guitar and chatting with the barrage is [Snow Leopard who loves to sing], and the drummer on the side is [Lynx who can dance].

These two are old acquaintances in the beta test. They had the "success of following the dragon" when building Gunblade, and they can be regarded as the first generation of "military band" among players.

But this time, in addition to them, two other young people joined the performing team, namely...

[The fox who doesn’t rap] and [the blue sheep who plays basketball]?

Absolutely, not only is it a cut, it's also a hiccup, right?

The four of them stood together like a perfect entity, singing and shouting while holding extremely rough handmade instruments, which perfectly reflected the spiritual status quo of contemporary college students.

And after seeing Ji Ming.

"Hey, isn't this our dog-headed military advisor Crooked Tree? Come here, come here!"

"No, don't..."

There was no room for resistance at all, and they directly grabbed him and forced him to interact with him.

And Ji Ming just shook his face, and the barrage in the live broadcast room exploded.

[I went, I didn’t expect to see the shovel killer here! 】

[Don’t be embarrassed, the crooked tree refers to the tomb. This is the inheritor of the northern school of tomb robbing intangible cultural heritage. For the sake of his own ancestral tomb, he should respect it (angry)]

[It’s said that they are all star players or old beta testers, why doesn’t he just start a live broadcast?]

[Obviously, he should be a second-generation rich man, but I don’t know which field he is in]

[Haha, maybe he is a spy among the players, spying on us every day]

Ai Ge laughed when he saw the barrage and joked with the microphone.

"Are you kidding me? How could Brother Waishu be a police officer? I guess so."

Ji Ming:......

"Yes, yes, yes, how could I be an informant who monitors players and uploads data to relevant departments every day? How do you think so?"

The Internet is like Tu Yile. In fact, this kind of cybercriminal-catching behavior has been practiced in the live broadcast circle for several days, and no one would take it seriously, so it was quickly exposed.

Although Ji Ming didn't want to talk nonsense with them, they were acquaintances after all, so it was okay to chat for a few words and then ask about business.

"I asked you why you are wandering around here. It turns out you are curious about this."

Quickly pulling him out of the camera, Ai Ge lowered his voice.

"We players actually have a total of three interactive objects."

"The first type is the audience in the live broadcast room. They may not all have money, but there must be a lot of them, and they can also help to increase the popularity. If they are taken care of well, they can earn what they want in reality."

"The second type is each other who are also players. Although there are more than a thousand players mixed together, the one hundred invitation codes all paid for three hundred. Even if he is not a rich brother, then the person behind him is definitely, If you can build a good relationship with them, you will get benefits no matter in the game or in reality."

"The third type is the NPCs in the game. Needless to say, their importance. If we don't contact the major tribes to open up business channels, where will our players get this market to base our current base, so if we do a good job in this aspect , it can also be a big help in the game!”

If you do well in reality, you can show off your skills, get to know more rich players, and focus on earning money outside of the game.

The game is great, you can sell related items, manage NPC relationships, and improve your in-game training.

And like them, there are some advantages in reality, and the game can rely on the large number of people and first-mover advantage to create some program effects...

"Hey, I can interact with the audience, the players, and the NPCs."

"Three kinds of benefits overlap and will definitely form a greater benefit. Isn't it beautiful?"

Let me copy, one fish and three meals?

Ji Ming immediately asked him who came up with this idea, Uncle Hua or Mr. Fan, who is a great talent.

Unexpectedly, Snow Leopard showed a somewhat forced smile.

"It's... the president of Starry Sky, the mixed-race foreigner named Howard Thomas."

Is he so kind?

wrong.

Of course he has to be so kind!

Make many friends and few enemies. This is the basis of competition and development.

Gunblade established the pioneer market to benefit players, and of course he wanted to get involved in it to improve his reputation among idle players.

In fact, until this afternoon, the vast majority of players doing live broadcasts were doing so at the castle.

The environment here is good, it’s easy to produce a film, and it’s full of otherworldly style. It’s perfect for a live broadcast background.

But it is because of the existence of this theory that some of the more astute choices have come to the market.

After all, no matter how nice the castle is, the only person you can interact with is the snow leopard man in the library who is indifferent.

The entire building has almost no actual gaming functions, and the potential for sustainable development is too weak. It is better to come to the market and try your luck.

And the result is...

The number of anchors on the Castle side is indeed decreasing. Once the gimmicks there are drained out, they will probably be "abandoned".

Okay, they all know how to organize themselves!

While he was chatting with Snow Leopard, there was a commotion at the door of the market.

Looking from a distance, it turned out to be the "Crazy Different Dimension" program crew running here.

“Dear viewers, look, this is the pioneer market established by our Gunblade Guild player friends.

"Yes, everything here is very lively and everyone is very friendly. Let us, the crazy brothers, take you around here."

Although in terms of celebrity status, Hu Bian and Li Tiankai can't even compare to a notorious young star like Lin Xiao, let alone an experienced drama star like Qin Zhengguo.

But this is not filming, nor is it an ordinary variety show, but a variety show that no one has ever tried!

As professional game players and top game anchors, if they understand the game and interact with the audience, at least in this program group, no one can be better than them.

Therefore, unknowingly, the two of them secured their positions as group leader and "deputy group leader", and their popularity increased even more.

But there was a lot of excitement at the door, and Ai Ge, who was standing next to Ji Ming, snorted coldly.

"Xingkong is so awesome, why are they everywhere?"

Seeing that Xue Bao was indignant, Ji Ming comforted him.

"Now is the prime time of the day for live broadcasts. People have arranged the live broadcast of this period to the Pioneer Market. Doesn't it mean that the market is doing well?"

"If you are really angry, then I can go to the market. They can come to the market to do variety shows, and you can also go to the Iron Shoe Tribe where they formed a team yesterday to do a live broadcast."

Who would have thought that his unintentional words really inspired Ai Ge, and he hummed.

"Yes, you are indeed a dog-headed strategist. This is a good idea!"

Then he asked his roommates to pack their things and prepare to go to Lao Niu's house to play.

"The dogs are really making trouble. Come on, let's take advantage of their heat!"

Seeing them leaving the market in a hurry, Ji Ming also took a look at his friends list.

The three of them were all online, but the blacksmith workshop, the combat training camp, and the southern stream all had Do Not Disturb statuses.

——Grandma, isolate me, right? ?

While he was debating whether he should go to the morgue and work diligently to clear monsters, or take the opportunity to rest for a while and wait for the dungeon to open, his eyes accidentally glanced at a stall selling handmade wooden masks.

Yes, now that the players have established their own novice village, then...

Just like the traditional architectural structure, there is naturally a small square in the center of the market, with stalls and bustling people.

Suddenly, a man in black robe appeared here.

And the moment he landed, everything around him was teleported several meters away, forming a no-man's land with him as the center.

Haha, your dad is coming!

Ji Ming originally wanted to show off and show off in a brand new way.

But the players didn't notice him at all, but...

"Holy shit, what's going on? There's finally a bug in the game?"

"Too bad! I knew there would definitely be something wrong with such a realistic VR game!"

"Ah! The escape button turns gray...ah, it hasn't changed yet, then it's okay."

Talking a lot and being in a mess, they panicked for a long time before finally discovering the mysterious businessman who had been left alone.

<divclass="contentadv">Although nine out of ten players have not participated in the closed beta, they must have watched all the closed beta videos, so someone immediately recognized him.

"Hey? Isn't this the mysterious businessman who is known as the boss of Novice Village!"

"I thought he had been deleted as a closed beta test function, but I didn't expect there would still be a chance to appear!"

"Quick, quick, put this screenshot on the public screen!"

Before he finished speaking, pillars of light appeared around him, and players were teleported here one after another, and there were many old faces among them.

No, do you need to be so excited?

Being surrounded by hundreds of people like this, Ji Ming's expression hidden in the mask was already a bit tense.

And there are people in the crowd who are constantly crowding and shouting.

"Fuck...Brother Maimai! Where is my brother Maimai!?"

It was Hadron who set countless traps for him during the closed beta and planned countless ambushes and sieges.

It was obvious that he had tried all kinds of sinister schemes, but now when he saw him, he was still as enthusiastic as meeting his own brother.

Ji Ming was sweating when he heard this. Who are you disgusting with? Why don't you just call him a profiteer?

Relying on his high level, Qiangzi "killed" his way through the crowd and reached the front row of the team.

But he didn't say anything or do anything, he just looked at Ji Ming quietly.

???

What is this for? Could it be that he jumped out to attract my attention and then attacked me hard?

Ji Ming moved his eyes away and looked around quietly.

The closed beta has only been open for three days. Even if Tony Stark is among the players, he still won't be able to make an anti-material sniper rifle or the like... right?

No, we can’t give this byd a chance!

But just when he was about to make a bold move and get first blood from the players in the closed beta stage, Qiangzi suddenly spoke.

"Brother Maimai, where is your stall? I want to buy something."

My stall...

Uh.

"Humph, of course the goods will not be put on display until the first pioneer comes to ask for a price."

Ji Ming could only spread a piece of cloth on the ground stiffly, and then put a lot of bottles and cans on it.

"I was scared to death. I thought your production team was really going to arrange a boss for the newbie village."

After laughing and joking for a while, Qiangzi opened the mysterious merchant's special store.

But after just one glance, the smile on his face disappeared.

Compared with the Game Mall Plus during closed beta, the gold content of the secret store in closed beta has increased a lot.

From basic strength potions to enchanted weapons with names, to expensive-looking spices and bacon steaks...

The items included are quite complete, and almost all of them are exclusive to the mystery shop.

Especially in the last category, there are even items like jewelry listed.

If it were any other game, Hadron would have been greeting the mother who planned it, questioning the purity of his bloodline.

But after playing for so many days, I also witnessed the competition between the two major guilds in NPC relations.

These fragmentary but expensive items may seem useless, but in fact they may be of great use at critical moments!

For example, among the lizardmen of the Scale Tribe, who worship the dragon clan, a piece of sparkling jewelry can be sold for an outrageous price.

There is also the little... eldest princess of the Demon Spirit tribe. If I can please her, can I get some help from the strongest tribe in the underground plain?

So he cut out characters for familiar closed beta players while taking screenshots, and soon attracted more players.

Ji Ming dared to say that this was the episode with the largest number of players since the server was launched the day before yesterday.

Countless cameras are connected to countless live broadcast rooms, and those aiming at this place naturally include the long guns and short guns of the entertainment program team.

If I could be considered a streamer, I would probably have set a world record for the highest number of simultaneous calls...

After browsing around the store for a long time, Qiangzi, who still had plenty of money, bought a few bottles of strengthening potions.

But after checking out the shopping, he didn't rush to leave. Instead, he suddenly raised his tone.

"OK, brothers, all eyes are on me, look at me, look at me, I have an announcement!"

After such a long time, although he has grown up and changed a lot, the social power of this social terrorist has not changed at all.

Faced with the attention of so many people, even Ji Ming, a cheeky man, felt a little reserved, but he could still raise his arms and speak loudly.

"Maimai, maybe you don't know, but actually we all like you very much, right?"

No matter what the gameplay and ideas are, the fun-loving nature of players will not change.

This is the only game official who can continue to "appear", so they all followed Qiangzi and started to make noises.

"Yes! I have been promoting and selling products alone since 2008!"

"Actually, I also follow a lot of Maimai Erchuang on Xiwei, and they are popular every day!"

"Huh? Maybe it was the one I drew..."

Beast, what did you draw? ?

Ji Ming was overwhelmed by the violent comments and was at a loss. He was thinking about how to escape when he suddenly heard a roar from Qiangzi.

"Maimai, I really like you. For you, I want to..."

As he said that, he suddenly rushed over and hugged Ji Ming tightly.

???

Ji Ming: Ah ah ah (the old sheep head screams in the same style)

However, at the next moment, Qiangzi gritted his teeth and even had a hint of pathos in his voice.

"Brothers, drop bombs on me!"

!!!

Looking at the people who suddenly jumped out from the crowd, holding several big thunderous spray mushrooms in their hands, the gourmet, the fishing emperor...

There was also the Grim Reaper, who was holding a torch and tied with gunpowder packets all over his body, and had already launched a brutal charge. Ji Ming understood everything at once.

——Dogecoin, you plotted against me again!

However, before countless gunpowder jars fell to the ground and exploded, he rolled up the stall in time and teleported back behind the curtain.

And the next moment in the center of the market...

[Level Player: Fighting Hadron: Dead]

[Level 1 player·but seeking death: dead]

The scene from the scene was very miserable. The entire open space was turned upside down by the bombing, and smoke was emitting.

And not only were these killed on the spot, the pig iron fragments exploded by Zhentian Lei also accidentally injured several bombardiers, which was astonishingly powerful.

"Challenger Guild, right? I remember you!"

Sitting on the sofa, Ji Ming is still a little shocked until now.

This was my first return to the stage, and I almost died from being bombed by them.

If players have more powerful modern weapons in the future, won't they have to sell things with Kevlar materials every day?

No, I have to send a message to Wilmore. They can no longer assist players in making various iron tools without restrictions!

But Ji Ming had just started typing when he received a message from Ji Guang.

[(Screenshot) Son, how do you evaluate the power of your father’s new weapon in the first battle? 】

……

pole! Light! Of! dance! you! Should! die! ah!

I said where did they get so many pig iron eggs, arms dealers, the weapons they used to attack me were given by you!

After calming down his desire to cut her into pieces, Ji Ming teleported to the actual training ground where she was.

It seemed that Jiguang had already guessed that he would come, so he rubbed his hands proudly and conjured a thunderbolt.

"Come, take a look at this, a good thing from the firearms age."

The so-called Zhentian Lei is actually an evolved version of the sealed test gunpowder can. The fragile ceramic can is upgraded to a cast iron can, making its power a little stronger.

Because the shell is made of iron, Zhentian Lei is actually quite heavy to hold, but it doesn't weigh much for Ji Ming, who has fifteen qi and blood.

"Give me a moment and let me test my power."

After thinking for a moment, he quietly used [Ignition Technique] to light the fuse and threw it deep into the warehouse.

Drawing a beautiful curve, the pig-iron egg landed impartially in the middle of a few waiting violent goblins, and then exploded in mid-air on time, and the flying fragments tore up everything around it.

Goblin: You better be fine.

"Hey, you're quite accurate at throwing. Did you practice peeing when you were a kid?"

Ignoring Ji Guang's praise, Ji Ming pinched his fingers.

You can use [Magic Enchantment] and [Ignition Technique] to accurately control the burning time of the fuse...

You can also use [Precision Throw] to perfectly determine the impact point of the thunder...

Why does this thing seem to be adapted to me?
