Chapter 573: Boil

In the first week of November, Xu Ran expressed to his boss Wang Jie that he would resign after the work at hand was completed; I hope Wang Jie will be prepared in the work arrangement. Wang Jie also thought that Xu Ran was disgusted with low wages, so he talked to Xu Ran once, saying that he could give Xu Ran a salary increase, but Xu Ran refused.

Xu Ran belongs to the kind of person who does things and has a sense of responsibility, if he is an ordinary person, if he has a high-income job that is currently producing cartoons, he may not do the decoration work at hand. Xu Ran's attitude is that since he has taken over, he can't give up halfway, and he must have a beginning and an end to the work. This week, Xu Ran's activities in the dream game have changed to a new method, and he thinks that since the time for him to practice the spirit thorn every time is very short, why can't he finish practicing the spirit thorn in the afternoon and then go to the blacksmith shop to strike iron; In this way, you can make better use of the time you spend in the dream game to exercise your mental strength.

He had paid attention to his information when he logged in to the dream game, and now every time he entered the dream game in the afternoon, the mental power consumed at night had recovered to 11, so that he was fully qualified to practice the spirit stab in the afternoon. In the afternoon, after practicing the spirit thorn and then going to strike iron, he only reduced his mental strength from 11 to 10; And when his mental power was 10 before, he could have completed the current amount of ironwork, so it would not have an impact on his ironwork work; What's more, his current strength value has also increased by another value compared to that level, so it shouldn't be a problem. This week, Xu Ran in the afternoon and night, after landing on the dream game, he first went to the spiritual thorn practice room to practice the spiritual thorn, and then went to strike iron or herd sheep. By Tuesday night, he was already able to launch a spirit thorn in about 10 seconds while still in a stationary state.

On Wednesday afternoon, Xu Ran began to choose to practice launching spirit thorns while the target was moving.

This time, the goal is to move back and forth around Xu Ran, and Xu Ran needs to turn the direction and aim the spiritual thorn condensed in his mind at the target; Because Xu Ran himself has to rotate back and forth, it is more difficult than condensing the spirit thorn in a static state; It took Xu Ran 5 minutes to condense into a spirit thorn and send it out, this time Xu Ran launched the spirit thorn, and the system prompted: "Didn't hit the target." Xu Ran concluded that the reason should be that his spiritual thorn, when it reached the emission concentration, it was not controlled by himself, and it was naturally ejaculated; Since the target is moving, he has not yet had time to aim at the target and determine the amount of advance for the launch. On Wednesday night, Xu Ran spent 3 minutes in a walking state and launched a spirit thorn; On Thursday afternoon, it took 2 minutes to launch a spirit thorn; Both times also did not hit the target. On Thursday night, it took 1 minute to launch a spirit thorn, and this time the system prompted: "Successfully hit the target." ”

Xu Ran felt that this time he was able to control the spirit thorn autonomously and delay the launch for a few tenths of a second; However, if the target is not moving, but moving quickly, then you should still not be able to successfully hit the target. After a few times, Xu Ran's spirit thorn could hit the target, and by Sunday afternoon, Xu Ran was already able to launch the spirit thorn and hit the walking target in about 10 seconds; Moreover, after the energy of the spirit thorn is emitted and accumulated, he can still maintain it for a second and then launch it; In other words, he has a certain amount of control over the 'spiritual thorn energy' that he has accumulated. Xu Ran is in the real world, and he doesn't dare to practice spiritual stabbing yet; Because with his current spiritual strength, after launching a spirit thorn, he does not have the conditions to launch again; And to restore his mental strength from 10 to 11, he felt that it would take about half a day; Therefore, if he consumes a 'spirit thorn' in the real world, it will affect his practice in the 'dream game' that follows.

Moreover, in the real world, it is difficult for him to find suitable test subjects, and he cannot shoot spiritual thorns at people or animals casually; And it's hard to determine, the spirit thorn launched, and the success rate. Xu Ran this afternoon, when he worked in the blacksmith shop of the dream game, he still forged 7 blanks each time, because he went to the blacksmith shop to make iron after his mental strength dropped from 11 to 10, although he could still complete the work every day, but after that, he would feel a little weak, and I don't know if it was a psychological effect. Xu Ran has now begun to think about renourishing his body as much as possible; After all, in the dream game now, it is becoming more and more mentally and physically demanding. He now buys himself walnuts and sea cucumbers, which he eats every day; Xu Ran thinks that these two foods should be regarded as pure natural foods, and they should not be genetically modified foods. On this Saturday afternoon, when he entered the game, Xu Ran's personal information changed again: mental power 11; Strength: 15; Stamina: 15 (was 14); HP: 110. As of Sunday (that is, November 8), Xu Ran's personal game currency has accumulated: 15 gold coins, 2 silver coins and 1 copper coin. …… Regarding the activities of Yun Zhongyue and in the spiritual force field, Xu Ran has always paid attention; Judging from Kong Xiuying's introduction, after Yun Zhongyue enters Ping'an Town, she should be able to earn game currency again. Xu Ran had previously counted that from Yun Zhongyue entering the spiritual force field scene to upgrading the spiritual force field value to 1, he experienced a total of 52 game scenes; Xu Ran counted that from then to Yun Zhongyue's preparation to enter Ping'an Town, he experienced a total of 79 game scenes; According to the calculation of 1 silver coin per consumption, 131 game scenes need to cost 13 gold coins and 1 silver coin, and then calculate the upload power cost of 10 gold coins; Xu Ran considered that he had to save at least 24 gold coins before he dared to enter the spiritual force field game scene; Otherwise, you may not be able to clear the practice room and enter Ping'an Town, and you will not be able to continue to participate in the dream game.

…… This week, Li Xin wrote the script of the cartoon "Wanyang City Chronicles" in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and sent it to Kong Xiuying.

In the first week of November, Kong Xiuying put the third, fourth, and fifth episodes of "Zhou Dynasty" into the VIP space of the website; The third episode of the newly produced "Wanyang City Chronicles" was placed in the VIP space, and the Shang Dynasty part of "Wanyang City Chronicles", she is also preparing to produce it in two episodes. After Yun Zhongyue logged in to the game on Monday, he entered Ping'an Town, and as usual, he put on a recorder and a mask and went out of the south gate of the town; She unleashed her mental force field and began to move along the dirt road she had walked yesterday. In the recorder, the direction of progress is still marked, and Yun Zhongyue has walked this road this time, which seems to be much less effortless; First, use the mental force field to perceive and detect the way forward; The image of the current perception detection is matched and compared with the image of the current area recorded yesterday in the recorder of the whole system; When the assimosis is settled, the moon in the clouds begins to move forward briskly along the area of the road that was recorded yesterday. Visibility along the way is still close to zero, and it is impossible to see the road with your eyes.

At this time, the benefits of the whole system of recorders are reflected; As long as the moon in the clouds is turned on, its own mental force field, there is no need to use the mental force field, carefully detect the road conditions, and the whole system recorder will remind at any time: the current situation of the mental force field, and the images that have been recorded in the whole system recorder, whether it is consistent or has changed. It is convenient to make adaptations and adjustments while traveling; Even Kong Xiuying felt that the cooperation between this spiritual force field and the recorder of the whole system was definitely a sharp weapon for rushing in the dark. Since the holographic recorder records the images observed by the mental force field, the appearance of the object is displayed in the so-called "God's perspective" in an all-round way; Therefore, no matter where you are standing now, whether you are in the same position as when you recorded the hologram yesterday, the holographic image that Yun Zhongyue is in the holographic recorder and sees is the same effect, as long as the current material condition in the mental force field has not changed compared with yesterday's recording, Yun Zhongyue can follow the holographic situation recorded yesterday and go her own way.

And once there is any change, in the holographic recorder, this change will be very conspicuous, and the holographic recorder will also give a hint. For natural situations such as leaves swinging in the wind and natural growth and changes of plants, the holographic recorder will automatically judge whether the difference between the two holographic images is in line with the laws of nature, and when it is found that it violates the natural phenomenon, the holographic recorder will make an instant reminder in the corresponding part. On the way out of town, after walking 50 meters, turn right according to the instructions of the recorder, and come to the 10-meter-wide range marked by the recorder. The 2-meter-wide range that the moon walked in the clouds yesterday was displayed in the recorder and recorded yesterday's hologram, and the remaining range that had not been explored was still displayed in the recorder as a gray blank. Yun Zhongyue walked along the area explored yesterday, to the part that needed to be explored but had not yet been explored, and the recorder began to synchronously display the situation within the range covered by Yun Zhongyue's spiritual force field; When the moon in the clouds reached the end position explored by the recorder yesterday, the direction of the recorder was already a gray blank, with only two bright lines marking a 10-meter-wide line; Yun Zhongyue continued to complete the exploration and recording tasks of the forward range that were not completed yesterday along the 2-meter-wide advance area next to the right sideline.

After walking another 50 meters, Yun Zhongyue reached the boundary of the exploration area and the end of the advance. The moon in the clouds began to explore the second area with a width of 2 meters; This time, Yun Zhongyue walked back 90 meters, and the spiritual force field was not enough to maintain the exploration range of one meter in front of him, and retreated to the coverage range of 0.5 meters in front of him, and at this time, the depth of the spiritual force field entering the interior of the substance was also directly halved; There are still 10 meters left to reach the starting point of the direction of progress, Yun Zhongyue still wants to continue to explore in such a state, and the recorder reminds her: "At present, the hologram and clarity of the spiritual force field exploration do not meet the requirements and cannot be recorded." Yun Zhongyue chose to walk back to Ping'an Town with a spiritual force field covering 0.5 meters around her body, and when she walked into Ping'an Town, the spiritual force field within 0.5 meters around her body could still be maintained. Due to the lack of time, Yun Zhongyue only quit the game after visiting around in Ping'an Town for a while. On Tuesday, Yun Zhongyue was in the target area, after exploring 180 meters, the mental force field energy was not enough to maintain the exploration range of one meter in front of him; After exploring the last 130 meters on Wednesday, after completing the recording task, he went to the mercenary guild to hand in the task and received 2 silver coins for the task.

In the mercenary union, Yun Zhongyue took another B-level task in the rookie mission, and there is no limit to the completion time, and the commission of the task is 3 silver coins. Yun Zhongyue took over this time, and it was still the task of recording holograms in the designated area; However, there will be animals in the designated area, and these animals may attack people. The NPC of the Mercenary Guild reminded Yun Zhongyue: "When you take a task above level B, it is best to prepare a cold weapon; Some animals may be poisonous and should be prepared with an antidote. Yun Zhongyue went to the pharmacy and bought two antidotes, and the owner of the pharmacy told her: "The antidote can be taken up to two pills a day, and one pill at a time can detoxify." "On Wednesday, Yun Zhongyue put on a recorder and a mask and went out of the north gate of the town; The air quality outside the north gate, like the situation outside the south gate, is still smog and visibility is almost zero.

She released her mental force field, and after moving forward for 50 meters, she followed the prompts of the recorder and turned left into a 15-meter-wide mountain road exploration area. The moon in the clouds is next to the boundary on the left, and begins to explore. After entering this area, the sound of birdsong can already be heard, and within the control of the spiritual force field of one meter in front of Yun Zhongyue, no animals have appeared for the time being. After Yun Zhongyue entered this area, he already held a dagger-shaped short blade in his right hand; The moon in the clouds is still taken to stand still and record; Moving forward, standing still, and recording the sound of walking, began to speed up, and it was obvious that she was coming in her direction; Yun Zhongyue hurried towards the nearest trap, and when she bypassed the known trap, she immediately stopped and stood still; After she confirmed the general position of the animal she was chasing, she walked to the opposite side of the trap in the direction of the animal, and began to take a stand still, deliberately making a loud noise, and the short blade of her right hand was always held in front of her, making a defensive posture. When the animal walked quickly and approached, the short blade on Yun Zhongyue's right hand began to swing back and forth in front of his eyes, making defensive movements, and at the same time, Yun Zhongyue's movement of stepping in place gradually decreased, as if to tell the chasing animal that the target it was looking for was going far; Since her mental force field and perception range are only one meter, and her observable range is limited, swinging the short blade should be a precautionary measure that can swing the blade at any time.

Feeling the sound of chasing footsteps and already very close, Yun Zhongyue bowed her body slightly and prepared sideways while dancing the short blade, and stopped stepping on the spot; The animal should have also known that there was prey in front of it, so it paused slightly, and then accelerated towards the moon in the clouds. In Yun Zhongyue's spiritual force field, a bear-like animal with teeth and claws appeared, and the short blade held by Yun Zhongyue's right hand waved towards the opponent's face, and the bear-like animal's head tilted back, and at the same time danced its forelimbs with the intention of knocking off the short blade in Yun Zhongyue's hand; Yun Zhongyue withdrew the short blade, avoiding the opponent's front paws, and the animal fell into the trap and began to roar in the trap; The trap should be more than 3 meters deep, and the animal's forelimbs can't reach the edge of the pit after the animal falls.
