#485 - How could crayfish be so bullying?
A casual player, controlling Tang Ping, commented, "It has a decent sense of impact, not bad. He should have made the game completely like 'Legend'. How can he make it so refined, hahaha..."
However, after fighting nothing but crayfish, the casual player got a little bored after a while.
Perhaps sensing the player's boredom, the game continued to pop up a prompt:
"Auto-battle function will be unlocked after completing level 1-4."
In order to level up quickly, the casual player said directly: "Come, come, I'll lure a few more monsters to kill them faster..."
Looking at the densely packed crayfish on the ground, Tang Ping couldn't help but underestimate them. Since mastering those exquisite inner energy sword techniques, he could deal with these entry-level monsters with ease. So, he decided to try to break through the current bottleneck in one fell swoop.
"Come, come, all of you come over here!" Tang Ping gathered his hands and loudly summoned the surrounding crayfish. "Let me see if I can solve all of you in one go!"
Soon, dozens of crayfish jumped out of the grass, swarming towards Tang Ping like locusts that smelled blood. Tang Ping gritted his teeth, soared up in a spin, and his inner strength instantly poured into his whole body like lightning. He pointed forward with his sword in both arms, and a sword aura burst out, piercing through the front row of crayfish!
"Haha, be tenacious! Let's continue!" Tang Ping grinned, baring his white teeth, and shouted at the crayfish that were still stubbornly rushing forward.
Soon, a large wave of crayfish surged up again. Tang Ping roared, stomped his feet on the ground, and his inner strength burst out like a tide. A surge of sword energy gushed out from the ground, instantly cutting the crayfish in all directions into serious injuries!
"Not bad, not bad, knocking down so many at once, my martial arts have reached perfection!" Tang Ping was overjoyed, and his emotions were temporarily high.
However, just as he was feeling pleased with himself, he suddenly discovered that the crayfish that seemed to be seriously injured and fallen were actually climbing up again, and were frantically recovering their health! And more companions were gradually emerging from the surrounding grass, gathering and encircling him.
"Wait, what's going on?!" Tang Ping was shocked and quickly prepared to exert his strength.
But his inner strength didn't work at all after several rounds! On the contrary, the crayfish swarmed up, using their bodies to constantly bump into Tang Ping, which crazily deducted Tang Ping's health!
"You little shrimps are going too far!" Seeing this, Tang Ping couldn't care less and simply launched a violent attack, slashing his sword light at the crayfish that bumped into him.
But no matter how he slashed, the crayfish could always avoid his edge and cause great impact damage to him in the gaps between his moves! Tang Ping was full of sword energy, but his life was rapidly draining away. For a moment, his arms were stiff in mid-air, unable to wield freely.
"No...impossible. How could I be defeated by this group of weak shrimps!" Tang Ping was shocked and panicked.
But at this moment, he finally couldn't hold on any longer. He was pounced on by the crayfish, rolling and wrestling, and was gradually pressed to the ground.
"Ah--!" With a scream, Tang Ping's figure suddenly turned into a floating afterimage in place, and his whole person was finally squeezed and exploded, completely disappearing from this world.
"This kid is still too inexperienced. Those crayfish were set by the developers as high-level monsters. It's impossible to beat them!" Just as Tang Ping was lost, he heard Shan Shan teasing him with a wry smile.
"What?! No way, I clearly..." Tang Ping's soul was extremely aggrieved, but he could only ponder in place, thinking about what he could learn from this experience.
Seeing Tang Ping's soul lingering in place with regret, Shan Shan had no choice but to shake her head and give some guidance: "Alright, you should also realize that pure brute force and martial skills cannot solve everything. Sometimes, cleverly using scene opportunities is also the essence of martial arts. You still need to practice hard after you go down, the power of our Ancient Jade Gate has only just revealed the tip of the iceberg!"
...
After being defeated and returned to the city, the game popped up an interface: "New function unlocked"
Soon, the game unlocked a lot of new features: "Recharge", "Season", "Mall", "Seven-day check-in", "Welfare Hall", "Daily Specials", "First Recharge Gift", "Curio Pavilion"...
After that, a recharge box popped up in front of Tang Ping:
[First Recharge Gift]
[Spend any amount to get a super value gift pack worth 8888 yuan]
[The gift pack includes: 300 diamonds, equipment enhancement crystals, +15 limited edition novice purple weapon, cool big wings]
Unwilling, Tang Ping scratched his head and clicked the button [Recharge a little money to play]
Faced with the game's tempting recharge interface, Tang Ping couldn't help but feel a little tempted. As a believer in strength, he longed to gain some advantages through paying, so that he could shamelessly win back a game in martial arts.
The first thing that caught his eye was the "First Recharge Gift Pack" worth 8888 yuan. It contained 300 diamonds, a large number of equipment enhancement materials, a limited edition +15 purple weapon, and a cool large wing mount. Moreover, once he recharged to become a "VIP member", Tang Ping would be able to unlock more exclusive privileges:
For example, VIP1 members will unlock the powerful "auto-grind" function, allowing Tang Ping to continuously gain experience and materials online; VIP3 can use the "one-click flower" service to automatically replenish high-level recovery potions for Tang Ping; VIP5 can unlock the "exclusive gift pack" mall, which sells a limited number of top-level divine equipment treasures every month; VIP8 will get an extra 74% experience bonus. Higher-level VIP members will receive exclusive appearance, exclusive titles, exclusive BUFFs and other noble treatments!
Moreover, the more Tang Ping invested at one time, the higher the VIP level he would get, and the more privileges he could unlock. For example, recharging 10,000 yuan at one go would get him VIP11 qualification, and the 128,888 yuan "endorsement gift pack" would package all VIP rights at once!
In addition, the game also set up various fee systems such as "monthly card" and "super monthly card". The monthly card is the most basic payment model. You only need to pay a fixed fee every month to receive daily rewards. The "super monthly card" is even more tempting. Not only are there more diamonds and advanced material rewards, but it also includes random luxury gifts such as the "lucky gift box".
In addition, the game also prepares various limited activities and rewards for paying players. For example, all mall items will be 20% off during the "Carnival"; during the "Golden Week", there will be opportunities to randomly win big prizes; and "limited-time gift packs" and other benefits will be opened every holiday.
Even more crazy is that the game will pop up some super gift packs such as "SVIP gift pack", "King gift pack", and "Dragon Soul gift pack" from time to time, with a unit price of thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan! As long as you pay to buy it, players will be able to get massive diamonds, divine equipment treasures, exclusive mount transformations, ultimate light wings and other top props at one time.
Even those rare treasures, such as "heaven-defying divine iron", "flawless magic diamond", and "primordial fairy marrow", as long as you are willing to spend a lot of money, the game will directly open up access!
Tang Ping fell into unprecedented entanglement. Looking at so many tempting payment options and benefits, he could hardly restrain the impulse in his heart. You know, with his current meager strength, if he wants to break through in this game world full of overtaking on curves, he can only rely on the power of money!
"This time, I'll buy an introductory monthly card first. After all, the road to learning is long, and we have to proceed step by step. In the future, when I have more money, I must invest well and take down all the top gift packs!"
Tang Ping hardened his heart, opened the purchase interface of the monthly card, and decisively took out his mobile phone to pay the bill. Soon, the system opened his membership status and distributed a lot of reward props. Looking at these precious resources in his hand, Tang Ping's heart was once again filled with infinite hope and fighting spirit!
...
A casual player complained: "After being instantly killed in level 4, a lot of recharge interfaces suddenly popped up. This routine is too familiar, right?"
Unwilling, Tang Ping gritted his teeth: "Okay! Since that's the case, then I'll recharge 648 to play a little!"
With a ding from Alipay, the game popped up a prompt:
[Recharge successful, get 9720 star diamonds, get 648 VIP points, congratulations on upgrading to VIP3]
Tang Ping clutched his chest in pain: "Damn, 648 is gone just like that, but it doesn't matter, brothers, we are stronger now, we can go abuse crayfish!"
After that, Tang Ping began to continuously receive rewards from the daily recharge and other interfaces.
Then various 7-day check-in rewards and cornucopia, prayer functions were opened one after another.
Subsequently, the game popped up "Welfare Hall", which has a wide range of "Daily Login", "Online Time Benefits", "Recharge Rebate", "Ancient Treasure"...
Tang Ping complained: "What about the promised equipment recycling?"
As a result, the game popped up a prompt: [Dear players, equipment recycling requires level 60]
After that, the game popped up a [Do tasks to get red envelopes] interface.
Tang Ping rubbed his hands: "Damn, it's always been a recharge project, finally there are some conscientious new welfare."
The newest novel is first published at six nine book bar!
It shows:
[Newcomer exclusive benefits remaining: 15 days]
[Complete 1 main quest, reward 100 yuan]
[Complete 5 main quests, reward 100 yuan]
[Complete 10 main quests, reward 100 yuan (not completed)]
But you need 500 yuan to withdraw.
The casual player said: "We recharged 648 yuan to withdraw 500 yuan, what a big profit, almost free."
The barrage went crazy: "Hahaha, casual player, you know how to get free stuff."
After that, Tang Ping opened the game mall, which has various big wings and cool fashions.
Opening the game mall, Tang Ping was completely stunned by the dazzling array of fashions and mounts there. Pieces of gorgeous and eye-catching clothing can be seen everywhere, as if they are top-quality products from the world of anime and games!
The first thing that catches the eye is the gorgeous wing armor. They are mostly made of superior materials such as obsidian, elemental gems, or magic energy crystals. The overall shape is sometimes like a phoenix spreading its wings, sometimes like a demon rushing into the sky, and sometimes like a fairy phoenix ascending, all exuding unparalleled chic and heroic posture. What's even more amazing is that most of them also contain dreamlike energy effects such as flames, shadows, and divine light, flickering faintly behind them, which is beautiful!
In addition to these armor-shaped wings, there are also many animal-shaped fashions in the mall. Tang Ping noticed that there is a costume that looks like a unicorn. The whole body is white, the body is slender, the forehead is crowned with a gem horn, and the back is a rainbow ribbon-like seven-color feather flow. Wearing it, it will definitely make people look elegant and dazzling!
Another one is a wolf-shaped fashion. The fur is shiny, the canine teeth and sharp claws are exposed, and the eyes are burning with fierce energy. The whole shape is fierce and unparalleled, like a monster from the abyss! And behind it, there is a pair of dark magic wings, exuding a terrifying aura of death.
There is also one that is amazing, shaped like a terrifying evil dragon! Its skin seems to be woven from hard scales, and the whole body is inlaid with bone-piercing nail armor, and its eyes shoot out icy blue light. The most terrifying thing is that its wings are huge, like a pair of sharp blades, and the air trembles whenever they are flapped! Tang Ping can fully imagine that wearing such a mighty and violent fashion, the combat power will definitely reach its peak!
In addition, there are countless other unique and novel fashions in the mall, including warriors, knights, necromancers, elf queens, etc., countless shapes, all chic and eye-catching. That gorgeous and dazzling appearance, coupled with the radiant energy effect, must be an unparalleled experience to wear!
Even those ordinary clothes are infinitely exaggerated and rendered into seamless divine products under the detailed description of the mall. For example, an ordinary waist-tight skirt is described as "a soul-stirring and stunning dress that contains feminine charm." A pair of ordinary deerskin boots is even described as "the pinnacle of the forest that condenses the essence of nature." Tang Ping read these exaggerated advertising words and couldn't help but yearn for these products!
Tang Ping gritted his teeth and bought the "Gorgeous Wings", and his combat power soared by 30,000!
...
After improving his combat power, Tang Ping went back to take revenge on the crayfish that he couldn't beat before.
Writing quickly, Tang Ping's heart was burning with unparalleled fighting spirit!
The humiliation of being besieged by the crayfish in the past finally has a chance to be avenged. He is holding a purple long sword with a precious appearance, wearing golden armor, and has a pair of huge magic dragon wings on his shoulders. The wings are scaly and extremely hard, and the air will tremble whenever they are flapped. Behind Tang Ping, there is a dazzling divine light blooming faintly, showing that it contains amazing power!
"Hahaha, a group of crayfish dare to be rampant? Look at my supreme divine power, I'll show you some color!"
Tang Ping grinned, and the long sword in his hand shook, and thousands of electric lights agitated, and the monstrous killing intent was like thunder and lightning! He slammed his wings, and his whole body suddenly appeared with treasure light, bursting out a shocking force, and he stepped on lightning and rushed straight to the dense crayfish area!
"Kill!"
A roar exploded, Tang Ping unfolded his magic weapon, and the long sword slashed down! When the sword came out of its sheath, boundless raging waves rolled in, and the electric light mixed with thunder, directly hitting dozens of crayfish!
"Puff puff puff" several times, only to see those crayfish scorched all over, and they all exploded and died, leaving no residue!
"What? That's it?" Tang Ping couldn't help but feel a little disappointed at the sight. He was about to dust off his clothes and leave when he suddenly noticed the surrounding dense grass and trees shaking violently, and countless crayfish bursting forth, surging towards him!
"Just what I needed!"
Tang Ping was overjoyed. He opened his arms, and the wings of the demonic dragon suddenly unfurled, vast and mighty! The wings instantly burst forth with thousands of blades of light and lightning, countless crayfish were instantly pierced through the heart, their suffering immense!
Tang Ping laughed heartily at the sight. He gathered his hands together and cast a golden and brilliant treasure orb, immediately throwing it into the air! The orb spun in the air, suddenly blooming with thousands of feet of golden light, illuminating the entire world! At that instant, Tang Ping's swordsmanship suddenly went on a rampage, sword light flashing, and in a flash of lightning, he unleashed a spectacular scene of ten thousand swords firing simultaneously!
The ten thousand swords were vast and mighty, like raging waves, and wherever they passed, how could any crayfish survive under such an overwhelming offensive!
"Ah! Run! It's too terrifying!"
The remaining crayfish, finding themselves helpless, scattered and fled. Tang Ping laughed incessantly, leaping up, his wings shaking the heavens and earth, and unleashing another burst of divine light! That boundless divine light, mixed with lightning and thunder, was about to annihilate the crayfish swarms within a few miles!
"Hahaha, just a bunch of crayfish, and you dare to be arrogant? Watch me, with this one sword, easily annihilate you into nothing!"
Tang Ping raised his arm and swung it violently, and with a single strike, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, ten thousand bolts of lightning pierced through the nine heavens, leaving behind a ravine thousands of feet deep! Those crayfish who were unable to resist were turned into black, charred slag under the irresistible blow, crumbling and disintegrating!
With the battle over, Tang Ping was proud and flamboyant, coldly watching the crayfish corpses, which had once caused him to lose face, scattered all over the field, his heart filled with relief. The combat power transformed by the power of money was so powerful that the poor crayfish were simply unable to resist!
Just then, Tang Ping's vision flickered, and the system popped up a prompt: "Battle victory! Obtained 666666 experience points, 99999 gold coins!" He was overjoyed and smug! With this breakthrough in combat power, he was one step closer to his dream of leaving as the strongest warrior!
Tang Ping exclaimed: "Zha Zha Hui didn't lie to me, it really is 99999 damage with one strike! I really love this game! Awesome, spending money really makes a difference."
Tang Ping stared with bloodshot eyes, very excited.
After clearing the level and returning to the city, the game popped up a new prompt:
[You can challenge wild BOSS to get a lot of rewards]
Tang Ping was even more excited: "Wild BOSS? I must kill it. With my current combat power, I must be invincible!"
