You and me under the world tree

"It is reported that an archaeological team organized by the World Tree Group has unearthed an unknown ancient city site in the Netherlands.

According to expert appraisal, a suspected Except for the "sage" of the wizard, the others are all figures related to European legends.

'patta'

Feeling that the things on TV were not nutritious, Huo De finally turned off the TV, and after that, he just focused on the simple breakfast on the dining table.

Meat balls, fish balls, sausages, dried tofu...

The whole family's oden is only those few things, and they are used to it. After eating the tribute balls with vegetable buns, he let out a long breath.

"Thank you." He said, not intending to pay on the spot. Anyway, the animals in the dormitory are used to it. It's just who will treat the next meal. "I'll treat the meal at noon?"

"No, next time, I have something to do today." Speaking of this, Mu Si couldn't help but a smile appeared on his face.

Handsome and slutty, looking at Huo De, a normal person, makes him feel cold all over the place...

"Be normal, I'm afraid."

It's probably because Hodd's ruthless complaints really hit something, and of course it's also possible that Muth finally realized how sloppy his smile was, so in the end, he just coughed lightly.

"Anyway, tomorrow isn't Valentine's Day. Someone invited me to dinner at noon today."

"Oh." He took a bite of the cabbage bun expressionlessly, and Huo De said he knew it.

And he wasn't doing superficial work, in fact, he really knew what Mu Si was doing.

Valentine's Day?girlfriend?

too naive……

This animal, Musi, is known as a humanoid pile driver. I don't know whether it is talent or experience. From the beginning of his freshman year, his life can only be described as chaos, although he is not the kind of scumbag who pedals several boats at the same time. , but the speed of changing girlfriends is also jaw-dropping, and now, Huo De doesn't want to count the number.

"Speaking of which, do you want to be together? It's not an option to stay at home all day. I guess you don't know what's going on outside."

"What else can happen outside? It's still winter vacation, and there are still several months before graduation defense." Huo De complained like this, obviously determined to be a nerd.

"So why do you stay at home during the great festival?"

"So why should I go out on such a great festival? There are activities during the festival, and it starts at noon. I have to catch up on sleep later." He said, "Okay, I'll treat you to dinner later."

After finishing all the breakfast, Huo De hurried back to the room without saying a word.

This kind of Internet useless model can't help but make Mu Si sigh...

"If you continue like this, your social circle will only get smaller and smaller, and you won't even be able to find a wife by then."

Emmmm......

Then Hodder stopped in his tracks. Although he was wearing a pair of technical glasses for vision correction, so basically only the lower half of his face was exposed, but even so, Muth could still see the shadows emerging from his face. That subtlety.

In all fairness, he is not the kind of guy who is too miserable to look at, and it is easy to find a partner, but because of his reclusive life and rest, his circle of friends is only limited to the class, and now After everyone went their separate ways, they became even smaller.

"How about it? Why don't you go out with me? I know a lot of girls, and they also have friends."

"Uh, that, no, I think I have a wife."

It's just in the game...

"what?"

When did this guy get out of the singles?I do not know how?How could I not know? !

In an instant, Lao Mu began to doubt his life.

Chapter 4: An Online Wife Can’t Be a Rough Guy

The development of the matter seemed to be a little different from Muth's brain, and he couldn't help rubbing his head.

"No, old Huo, where did you get your wife?" He asked

After all, Muth and Huo De have known each other for a long time. During the nearly four years of college, he watched him live a life of reclusive life. He would never go out if he could stay in the dormitory. After renting a house outside, he He was even more nerdy, except for school, he spent almost all his time on the game called "Nine Realms".

Speaking of this, Mu Si felt heartbroken.

"How could I be stupid enough to take them to the Christmas buffet?"

Originally, a person like Huode should not be able to buy the latest game pod developed by World Tree Company, but Huode was lucky enough to get one while eating the buffet, and he also got one for free by the way. The newly announced game "Nine Realms" was presented as a gift.

Although Mu Si also knew that this was a normal marketing method, Lao Huo's luck really seemed a little too much, but now Mu Si didn't care about it anymore, he cared more about where Lao Huo came from in this situation wife?

No, it seems that there is a channel...

"In the game?"

"Well, a partner from the same guild."

"Male and female?"

"I have no idea……"

Then, looking at Hodder's face that was gradually sinking into thought, Mu Si's handsome face showed a frightened expression.

"Wait a minute, let me stroke it."

"I think, maybe... maybe it's a woman?"

"Have you met?"

"No……"

Then, Mu Si patted him on the shoulder with a hint of sympathy on his face.

"Forget it, you'd better come out to play with me, don't soak in the game, it's not good if you get addicted."

Of course, what he didn't say was, what if he was cheated?

"Probably not, we are all members of the same guild, and we are all members responsible for the front-line strategy. There should be no problem... right?"

After hearing what Mu Si said, Huo De felt strange inexplicably.

But, according to common sense, getting married in the game is a very common thing, maybe it’s just a friend you can chat with, maybe it’s just a kind of spiritual sustenance, in short, it should have been just a marketing tool for the game company , the purpose is obviously to increase the sense of experience, but also increase the social fun.

But the game is just a game after all, it only provides a virtual social platform after all, and since it is virtual, of course it has nothing to do with reality, because of vanity, almost everyone likes to set themselves up to be perfect , the fat house will hope that its image will be slimmer and more handsome, and the girls will also hope that they can be more attractive.

Then, because there are no restrictions, there are many transgender players in this broken game. In addition, there are many races open to the Nine Realms, so various things happened.

Judging from the tree hole in the current forum, a strong but short dwarf with stubble may be a cute girl in reality, a big sister with a heart that fascinates all beings in the game, but is actually a tough guy in the gym. The cute girl may even be a fat house, in short, there are any possibilities.

Of course, some people would think that in a game that completely simulates the senses, this situation will be less, but the facts prove that the lower limit of human thinking and innovative attempts are far beyond imagination. World Tree Company claims that "Nine Realms" can completely imitate daily physiology. After the event, there were more transgender players.

It is precisely because of the perfect disguise and voices provided in the game that the characters in "Nine Realms" are completely living 'characters', coupled with the extremely real touch system, which perfectly verifies that sentence:

As long as it's beautiful, it's fine!Who cares who you are offline!

…………

"Emmmm..." Staring at his character panel, Hodder couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

He is currently in the hotel room in the game. The internal facilities are very simple, a wooden bed covered with animal skins, a burning fireplace, a pot can be hung on the fireplace, but there is no cooking, and he I don't care about these now, all my attention is on my panel.

Name: Hod

Overall grade: 60

Occupational Skills: Blacksmithing, Runes

Titles: Master Forge, Master Swordsman, Master of Runes, Sage of Volsung (this title is out of print)

Talent: Protoss blood [Asa] (rune runes gain 20%)

Weapon: Rune Sage Battle Sword (Forged Product, Rune Special Effects Activated)

Protective gear: frontier battle armor (forged product, set effect activated)

He didn't care about the bloodlines he got in the lottery when creating characters in the game, the skills, occupations, weapons, equipment he practiced later, and even the blood volume that remained unchanged for thousands of years. His eyes were only fixed on the marriage status. One column, that column is marked with the words 'married', and the subject's name is quite clear: Dietrich.

Of course, it should be written with a name like 'Dietrich'...

Well, in fact, he is still lying. It is completely deceiving to say that he doesn’t care about offline and only needs the beauty on the Internet. Because his interpersonal circle is so small, he takes the Internet very seriously. He is very concerned about the friendships formed on the Internet, even those sand sculpture teammates in the guild, let alone those who can get married in the game.

Even if it is verbally said that everything is fine, but because of the game mechanism of "Nine Realms", marriage is not just about writing each other's name on the panel, both husband and wife enjoy the "common property" of the game mechanism , both parties not only have a public inventory, but also have unconditional access to private spaces such as hotel rooms that should belong to individuals, and even know each other's location at all times.

This is not something as simple as the coordinates written on the personal panel...

Thinking of this, he clicked on the big map, the dot symbolizing his wife was flashing on the big map, and the viewing area was on the other end of the big map: Gothic, this is a kingdom force in the Nine Realms, and there are also Looking at the tedious task line, she was clearly clearing the task there.

But he doesn't know if his wife has joined the Gothic Kingdom for game rewards and prestige stores...

In this game, joining one faction will lose the degree of freedom in other camps, but correspondingly, prestige stores will also be opened. Hodder himself joined the Netherlands, but that was also a matter of the previous version.

Since Siegmund's death and the version of [Song of the Nibelungen] opened, his prestige store has been locked, and it can only be opened again after the main storyline is completed to a certain extent. Soldiers guard.

So what about your own wife?Anyway, before he actually met her, he had no chance to know.

And seeing this, he moved his attention to her online time...

"20 hours of online time..." Looking at the clearly depicted online time in the friend list, Huo De suddenly had a strong desire to complain.

This shit is called Gandi. Compared with her, Huo De's game time is nothing. Speaking of which, Huo De himself has imagined the other party's image, because it can be said to be Gandi's online game. For a while, he still wondered if the other party was a house girl offline. As a result, after being inexplicably emphasized several times by Mu Si, an animal on the Internet, various philosophical voices always appeared in his mind.

Don't, don't, this style of painting is crooked. If his wife is really a fat house, Huo De thinks his heart will be broken, no matter what, this is his first love!

After several deep breaths, Huo De finally clicked on the keyboard on the system panel, and then sent a private message.

Hod: Are you interested in Valentine's Day missions?

[The target player 'Dietrich' is in a special scene, this information has been saved in the opponent's log]

After seeing the reminder given by the system, Hodder couldn't help being taken aback, and then showed a subtle look of not knowing what to say.

Not to mention whether the other party is interested, whether she can receive this message from me is also a question...

"Forget it, let me finish the task first."

Then, he closed the system interface and the list, but at this moment, a message came over.

'ding dong'

[You have received a new email, please check it from your mailbox in time]

"???"

Chapter 5: Blacksmith Apprentice Siegfried

Just like most computer online games, "Nine Realms" has two channels for sending and receiving messages. One is ordinary private messages. Open the chat list and you can have text-level conversations. Non-friends can't do this kind of almost unlimited of remote communication.

Another way is to use mail, to fill in the message at a mailbox somewhere, and even attach items that can be freely traded in the inventory. Generally speaking, the system will not directly send items to the personal inventory. To increase the sense of substitution, the official will also issue rewards or compensation to players by mail.

But of course, "Nine Realms" has not had this problem since the day of the public beta. Except for the necessary small version updates and server maintenance, it has never crashed, the game experience is good, and no one has been stuck in the wall. In addition to the extremely Buddhist system of operation, it seems that it is quite confident in its own viscosity. Apart from the initial public beta reservation reward and announcement, there are no other offline activities.

Therefore, the system basically does not send any emails directly to players, and there is not even a questionnaire. Most of them are sent by players casually. send email.

But Hodder didn't buy anything at the auction house, so the only people who sent him emails were friends.

Who is it?

After seeing the words that emerged from the letter, Hodder's expression became subtle.

From: Dietrich

Subject: Happy Valentine's Day

Content: I am not free that day, the email is scheduled, this time should still be in the copy

How should I put it, it's really quite a concise style, Huo De can be sure from the text, it should be his wife's handwriting, because the tone is exactly the same, if you don't say extra words, there won't be any nonsense, completely There is no romance whatsoever.

Even at this moment, Hodder remembered the history of their marriage...

Don't think that after this broken game simulates a realistic real life in a different world, the players' marriage proposals will become more romantic - of course, there are also players who seek romance, just Hodder's game history of more than two years In the game, he has witnessed many romantic wedding ceremonies in the game, and he has also seen many grand marriage proposals in the forum.

After all, this is a Nordic-style game that focuses on magic and mythological elements. The reality has all kinds of shackles that belong to common sense and science, but there are none here, so it can be said to be full of tricks.

He has seen someone propose a marriage proposal in a blue rose garden bred by professional skills in herbalism, and the thousands of blue roses that bloom in an instant are fascinating; he has also seen someone pave a miracle road with radiant runes, Lovers take it to the surface of the sea to make the most sincere confession.

These are the textbook-like use of professional skills that happened in the "Nine Realms", and of course, most of them have been extended from the game to reality. If Hodd wants, he can now put the forum The "Marriage Proposal Assembly Building" that has been refined and put on the top was dug out, and there are still many people showing their affection.

Unfortunately, these people do not include Hodder and his wife. Although they have concluded a marriage relationship in the game, there is no romantic marriage proposal. He can still remember what happened more than half a year ago. matter.

Probably when they were clearing tasks in the wild, the two of them sat by the campfire and counted their achievements, and finally found that they lacked a partner achievement, so at that time, he simply said to the girl who always looked cool Out of that sentence:

"How about we get married? In this way, we can get an achievement, and by the way, we can clear the task next Valentine's Day."

Of course, he can swear to God now that he meant what he said, but in order to avoid embarrassment, he used a joking tone at the time.

After being silent for a while, Dietrich agreed.
