Chapter 291: The Troubles of the Weapon Spirit (Second Update)
After receiving this title, Gonggong cried.
It wasn't because this title was so difficult to get, but because the examiner saw her frying shredded potatoes and asked her to stop and asked her something that made her cry: "
Why did you come here?"
With a confused look on his face, the examiner said in a friendly manner: "With your skills, you can make a living in Lin'an City. It's too unfair to stay here. You have to practice a lot. Hurry up and get the certification and go to Lin'an City. Oops, Why are you so excited? Stop crying and let's go."
When he thought that he had suffered for so many days in vain, Gonggong cried even more sadly.
Wiping away her tears, Gonggong ran to her hotel. She immediately asked the governor and Taiyin to pack their luggage together and prepare to officially leave here.
After learning that Gonggong had won the title, the ghost bride's lips curved into a happy smile at first, but then she immediately restrained it.
The ghost bride under the red hijab sighed, looked at the clothes in her hands and said, "I thought I could catch up, but it's a pity that I can't. Forget it, I'll just make do with it, and if it doesn't work, just sell it. When are you leaving?"
" Tomorrow..."
"That's okay, I can also give you a pair of extra soles. Everything is expensive in Linhua City. You have to be careful there and don't mess around." "
Oh..."
"You have the money, so I I won't prepare it for you. You can spend your own money by yourself. Don't spend as much as you have like here."
"Yes."
"Remember to write a letter of divorce tonight, in case I can't get married later."
"Hmm...huh?"
The ghost bride held the soles of Gonggong's shoes stitch by stitch, and the ghost bride said: "Why are you so surprised? Although I am a ghost bride, I can also be regarded as a ghost cultivator. You know what you are thinking very clearly. If you want to leave, I won't stop you, as long as you don't hate each other in the end."
"You already know it...then why are you helping me?"
"At first, I thought you broke my paper man, so I just wanted to give you some retribution. Later I saw you having fun, so I just wanted to have some fun for myself. The fun was almost over, and it’s time to end. You go and have a rest. It’s time to go to Lin’an City tomorrow.”
“What about you? "
I'll leave after I finish making the shoes."
"Okay..."
Under the oil lamp, the ghost bride carefully held the soles of her shoes. Her tall figure was set off by the oil lamp, making her quiet and serene, exuding a mother-like warmth.
The next day, before dawn, Gonggong and his party were ready to set off.
The ghost bride and ghost wife stood at the gate of Nan'an City, quietly watching the group of people leave, as motionless as a stone watching the husband.
Realizing that Gong Gong's pace was a bit heavy, the warlord asked in a low voice: "Don't you say something?"
"We scumbags never look back after blasting."
"Then are you ready to come back after clearing the customs?"
"...back."
Sit and go. Lin'an City's carriage, Gonggong holding dogtail grass in his mouth, drove towards Lin'an City amidst the jingling sound of the carriage.
Turning his head to look at the two ghosts getting smaller and smaller behind him, Gonggong probably understood why players like games.
Although I know everything here is an illusion, the feelings flowing in it are sincere and pure.
They are just phantoms condensed from this world, but they feel real to people. Even if they know they are fake, they are still moving enough.
It is another world, another life. It allows silicon-based creatures like Gonggong to experience human emotions and let her understand the value of them.
A different kind of emotion flowed in her heart, making her feel that she was truly living in the present at this moment.
The second time I stepped into Lin'an City, the feeling was different again.
Previously, Gonggong's cooking skills were not high enough. She only thought the cooking skills of roadside chefs looked good, but she couldn't tell whether they were good or not.
Now, her cooking skills have been improved to level five, and you can see many differences at a glance.
The fleshy guy was very good at cutting. The finger-long blade flew up and down in his hand, and the dough pieces fell into the water one after another, all of the same size.
A player was on the roadside, carving a radish with an embroidery needle going back and forth. Patterns appeared on the radish with thick arms, which turned out to be a picture of a lady.
"Warlord, I want to learn that!" Gonggong said excitedly, pointing at the player carving radish.
"Go to the NPC here first! And stop messing around and causing unnecessary trouble!"
"Isn't the result pretty good?"
"That's because we are lucky. It won't be like this next time." "I I believe our luck will continue to be this good."
"That's what you think."
"Taiyin thinks so too, right?"
"That's what you think."
While bickering, they walked towards their destination. They arrived not long after When I arrived at the local government office, I saw the person in charge.
The other person was a fat man weighing more than 200 pounds. When he walked, his chest bumped up and down, and his belly bounced back and forth like a water-filled balloon.
Looking at the three people who walked in, he wiped the sweat from his head and said to them: "You are the new ones, right? I am the person in charge here. You can just call me Dr. Dian." "
What's the meaning of this name? Are you particular?" Taiyin asked doubtfully.
"Nothing particular about it, I just like it. Well, welcome here. Linhua City has a long history, countless ingredients, and countless hidden recipes. It is a paradise for food lovers and an arena for chefs. Here, you can open your own small shop, or compete with others to seize each other's shop and recipes. As long as we don't find out about using despicable means, then there will be no problem."
Gonggong quietly thought about the other party's words. It feels like the other party has already hinted at a lot of things.
Not being discovered is not a prohibition, which means that as long as the means are clever and there is no clue, then all behaviors are acceptable.
Unlike Nan'an City, which requires a plot, Linhua City is mainly a confrontation between players, seeking information from each other to obtain better recipes and obtain the crown of the God of Cookery.
Currently, the current peak number of online users in Lin'an City is around 200,000, which is a bit small compared to the number of game purchasers exceeding 10 million, but this number is actually normal.
Most players are still experiencing the single-player gameplay of Nan'an City. At most, they are playing with a few friends like Gonggong. They have not yet been exposed to online gameplay.
After all, to get here you need to obtain the title of Novice God of Cookery, and if you are not particularly aggressive, it will take a month to complete.
But even so, the current number of people is still a very scary number.
Those who can come here are all players who have passed the single-player gameplay. They either have their own adventures, or they are chefs in reality. Everyone has two brushes. They come here to shock the NPCs here.
Moreover, the supervision in Lin'an City is stricter, prices are higher, and there are practitioners patrolling the sky, making it difficult for ghosts to enter.
There are also castle surveillance in the city, so those who want to make a small name for themselves must be careful.
After listening to Dr. Dian's introduction, Gonggong and his party probably knew what was going on here.
Efforts have been made to build a fair arena here, where a large number of players compete and cooperate together to gain the title of God of Cookery.
Faction relationships become more complicated here. Players who join one faction may offend another faction.
Players can also form their own factions, but this also means that many advanced recipes are missing, and the early stage must be very difficult.
After finding a suitable seat in a roadside hotel, Gonggong temporarily turned off the live broadcast, ordered a jar of wine, and then said to his friends: "What should we do next?"
Taiyin said nonchalantly while drinking. "Anyway, we're just here for fun, so just open a shop casually and keep doing the same thing as before."
"That's what you say... But, I suddenly want to compete for the title of the God of Cookery."
The warlord looked at Gonggong: "Then what are you doing? Don't tell me that you, a guy who can hide from a large number of steel guards, are now scared." "
It's not that I'm scared, it's just that the physical body has a stronger influence on me than I thought. I can I feel that the Ghost Bride has had a certain impact on my character, and this impact will exist even if I leave here."
The warlord thought for a while: "You have become more human."
"That's what I mean."
" This is not a bad thing. Our Far Travelers are also humans, and the animals and plants we need to cooperate with in the future are also human variants, so it is not a bad thing for you to become human-like now." After
a pause, the Warlord took a long breath: "Facts Yes, I am just like you, I have this feeling too."
"Is it true?" Gonggong asked in surprise.
"Yeah. I was embarrassed to say it before, but I felt relieved when I saw you were the same. The power of the Great Heavenly Lord is indeed terrifying. I am developing a sense of identity as a human being, but I don't hate it."
"Same for me. !" Taiyin, who was drinking at the side, said immediately.
Gonggong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After knowing that she was not an outlier, she said sincerely: "Thank you, it's good to know that I'm not alone." "
You're welcome, you also let us know you better. Do you have any other questions?" "
Yes, you guys have been there lately. What kind of books do you like to read? I want to know more about human beings."
"...You are already very similar."
