Chapter 2678 The Real Paradise
Chapter 2
The kingdom's resources began to run low, and morale began to decline.
The king felt unprecedented pressure, and he knew that if he didn't solve this problem quickly, his kingdom might collapse.
He began to seek foreign aid, hoping to find a way to deal with these mysterious attackers.
In fact, there is a way.
The attackers are still a little weak.
The villagers reported that when they fought, their strength was about the same as that of a strong man.
As long as the cavalry charged, they could be solved.
War is always cruel.
During an operation, Li Jin's team encountered an ambush by Wang Guo's team.
They designed a military assembly point and deliberately exposed it to let the other side come to attack.
In fact, they were hiding ten miles away.
As a result, Li Jin and others were surrounded and faced enemies that were several times their number.
"We can't give up!" Li Jin shouted loudly, waving his long sword and rushing towards the enemy.
He is now level 13.
There is a set of basic sword techniques, sharp and accurate, and every sword carries the determination to kill.
However, there are too many enemies. A player was accidentally shot by an enemy arrow and fell in a pool of blood.
Li Jin's heart was filled with pain, but he knew that they could not fall here.
Fortunately, the player disappeared soon.
This made him feel much more relaxed.
As long as he could be resurrected.
Others were not afraid.
But soon they would find that they could not rely on resurrection to deal with the people of the kingdom.
"Retreat!" Li Jin gave the order, and they began to fight and retreat. After paying a huge price, they finally broke through the enemy's encirclement.
Back in the valley, Li Jin and his team received a hero's welcome.
Their actions successfully tied down the army of the kingdom and won precious time for the valley.
However, Li Jin was not happy in his heart. He knew that the war was not over yet, and they still needed to find a more effective way to fight the kingdom.
Sure enough, after he went offline, he found that the dead players could not go online again.
Their accounts were cancelled.
"How is it possible?"
"Is this a championship game? Can only be played once?"
"Damn it, I would not die easily if I had known."
The game forum exploded directly.
This kind of high-difficulty game has never been popular.
Who would be keen to play an online game with only one life and cannot be restarted like a single-player game?
That is, human OL, a game that is not chosen by oneself at birth, will have ignorant players entering the pit one after another.
If everyone knows what fate they will suffer in the future from the beginning, many people may not choose to play.
It should be said that most people choose not to play.
After all, it is a death in the end, which is a game leading to despair.
Who will play such a game?
And Li Jin now wants to live forever and make the game infinite.
At a meeting, the players proposed a new plan.
They decided to use their advantages to strike at the kingdom's transportation and supply lines, so that the kingdom's army could not get effective support.
At the same time, the secret of immortality also spread among the players.
They began to look for clues, hoping to find this secret. They believed that if they could master the power of immortality, they would be able to better protect the valley.
And in a valley mission, Li Jin discovered a new mission.
That was to find the wise man of the valley.
The wise man has clues about immortality.
He realized that this secret might be related to the greed of the kingdom.
Then, under the continuous attack of the players, the kingdom's army began to retreat.
The king realized that he could not defeat these mysterious enemies, and he began to seek peace.
His ambition was restrained.
Mainly because of the endless stream of players.
Although it is a championship game for the time being, the game planner was forced to come out.
"This is just a test server, so the players will be deleted when they die. Is this reasonable?"
"In the official server, although everyone's chance of resurrection is limited, they can supplement the resurrection through specific tasks, and they can also entrust others to resurrect themselves."
Everyone was satisfied when they heard this.
It is normal that the test server cannot be resurrected.
The carrying capacity of other people's servers is weak, just want more players with different characteristics to come in for testing.
After all, this is a real game.
…………
At this moment, in the center of the valley, Li Jin stood on the high platform, his eyes firm and distant.
He knew that this war was far from over.
At least now, the people of the valley can enjoy peace.
He clenched the sword in his hand and swore in his heart that he would always protect this land until the last moment.
His decision was soon rewarded.
…………
Zhao Han stood at the highest point of the valley, overlooking the land that she and Xiao Huan jointly protected.
The smoke of war had dissipated, but the heroic figures of those players who fought for the peace of the valley still lingered in front of her.
These players were still good.
Although it was just a game, for them, they gave everything.
She knew that these players had paid too much for this land of another world.
Many of them even gave their "lives" in battle.
Although in the real world, they only lost a chance to play the game, their sacrifice is so real in the game world.
"Xiao Huan, we need to do something for them, at least let them feel that their efforts are rewarded." Zhao Han said softly.
Xiao Huan stood beside her, his eyes also falling on the valley in the distance.
"What they desire is not only the excitement of adventure, but also the exploration of the limits of life."
Zhao Han was silent for a while, and then said: "Then, let us grant them immortality."
"When we were ordinary people before, what we most desired was nothing more than this."
"As long as they are willing to continue to protect this land, they can get eternal life here."
The news quickly spread among the players.
The wise man appeared and praised them for being recognized by the guardians of the valley.
The guardian spirit decided to give the loyal players the blessing of immortality.
This is not only a recognition of their courage, but also a compensation for their sacrifice.
The players were boiling, "immortality", this is the dream of many people.
But the wise man clearly told them that this blessing was not without conditions - they must continue to guard the valley and fight any forces that attempt to invade.
The players accepted this condition.
For them, being able to gain eternity in this world full of magic and miracles is already the supreme reward.
With the blessing of longevity being granted, players found that their lives in the game were no longer restricted. Even if they "died" in battle, they could be resurrected by the holy spring in the valley and return to the battle.
"Good guy, this is a test server, and it has become a permanent server!" someone said excitedly.
They immediately became braver and more fearless. Because they knew that as long as the valley did not die, they could fight forever.
Then, another army of the new kingdom appeared again at the misty border of the valley.
The previous kingdom was quiet.
But the king secretly passed the message to other kings.
Under the temptation of longevity, they naturally couldn't resist, but chose to come here for a sneak attack.
And this time, they faced a group of almost immortal warriors. The players repelled the attack of the kingdom again and again with amazing speed and strength.
Another king finally realized that he was no longer facing a simple war, but a group of guardians with eternal life. He had to reconsider his strategy.
Although the players' combat effectiveness has been greatly enhanced, Zhao Han always has a trace of worry in his heart.
Is immortality really a gift? Or another curse?
Will she cause a new trouble again?
You know, once a person's life is long, he can do anything.
She began to think, what is the meaning of eternal life?
Players have gained eternity in the game world, but what about their lives in the real world?
Zhao Han decided to have an in-depth conversation with the players. She wanted to understand their thoughts, their wishes, and their understanding of eternity.
In the meeting hall of the valley, the players gathered together. Many of them have spent countless days and nights in the game.
They have developed a deep affection for this world.
Some people began to completely forget the real world.
And the forces of the real world have also penetrated into this game world, and many people have come here to take root.
Treat the real world as a place to sleep.
If the body does not need to be in the real world, many people don't want to go back at all.
How good is it here?
No need to worry about eating, drinking and having fun, nor do you have to worry about the problem of retirement.
No need to face the fear of death.
"Immortality gives us more time to explore the world and experience different lives." said a player.
"But we also have to think about what we should do in the real world?" Another player asked.
"Yes, many people are beginning to envy us."
"I heard that someone is trying to murder us, thinking that everyone will die the same way."
"Yes, doesn't this mean that no one is allowed to escape alone in time?"
"That's right."
Zhao Han listened to their voices.
She realized that the blessing of immortality is not only a gift of power, but also a responsibility and choice.
In the end, Zhao Han and the players reached a consensus. They will continue their battle in the game and protect this land.
But in the real world, they will cherish their lives and enrich their reality with the experience in the game.
They need to balance two key points.
At the same time, they can hide their consciousness in the game world when they encounter danger.
In this way, the threat of the real world can be reduced.
They made an eternal oath - in the game, they will always protect the valley; in reality, they will pursue a meaningful life.
Zhao Han looked at these players, her heart full of respect. She knew that they were no longer just characters in the game, they were real heroes.
This time, she met a group of reliable people.
…………
Meanwhile.
Li Jin took off his virtual reality helmet, withdrew from the excitement of the game world, and returned to his simple and modern apartment.
Outside the window, the neon lights of the city flickered with cold light, forming a sharp contrast with the vibrant valley in the game.
He stood up, walked to the window, and took a deep breath of the air in the real world. Li Jin knew that although he had been blessed with immortality in the game.
But in the real world, he was still an ordinary human being with his own life and work.
Li Jin turned on the computer and began to record his experience in the game.
He found that through writing, he could combine the adventures in the game world with the thinking in the real world and find a balance between the two.
He decided to set a rule for himself: only enter the game world after work and daily life every day.
He believed that only by arranging time reasonably can we enjoy the fun of adventure in the game without affecting real life.
On the forum of the game, Li Jin found that many players were discussing how to balance the game with real life. Many of them faced similar dilemmas as him.
Just watching, he suddenly thought, why not enter the game completely and never go back.
However, he couldn't do this, because the game was not the original body, but only the consciousness.
Then a question arises, what will happen if the body in the real world dies?
"I think we should set a goal in the game and then allocate time to achieve it, rather than indulge in it endlessly," one player wrote in the post.
"I have tried to apply the skills in the game to reality, such as learning strategies in the game to solve problems at work." Another player shared.
Li Jin was deeply inspired and began to think about how to transform the experience in the game into growth in real life.
In the next update of the game, Zhao Han accepted the players' suggestions.
She introduced a new system - Reality Synchronization.
This system allows players to convert part of the experience in the game into skill points in real life, helping them to improve themselves in the real world.
Zhao Han wrote in the game's announcement: "We hope that players can find fun in the game while also growing in real life. The blessing of immortality is not only in the game, but also an attitude towards life."
As time went on, Li Jin found that his adventures in the game began to affect his real life.
He became more decisive, braver, and more appreciative of time.
He began to find a balance between work and games, applying the teamwork spirit in the game to work, and applying the problem-solving strategies in the game to challenges in life.
One day, Li Jin encountered a difficult project in the company. He found that he could analyze problems quickly, make plans, and lead the team to overcome difficulties just like in the game.
His boss noticed his changes and began to give him more responsibilities and opportunities.
Li Jin realized that the blessing of immortality in the game gave him a "second life" in real life.
They are no longer afraid of aging and death in reality.
Because they discovered a fact: death in reality does not affect the body in the game.
At most, you can't log off.
This means that the game world will be a real paradise.
