Chapter 14: Ruthless Player
Chapter 14: Ruthless Player
Half an hour later.
【Drunk group chat group (21 people online)】:
Wosnidie: @Everyone,!!! Urgent notification of a big news, this link can download the genuine version of "Dark Land", we don't need to fight for the purchase qualification anymore!!!
This beaver: Uh... what's wrong with you, sister? She started talking nonsense.
Shrimp and Pig Heart: I was about to fall asleep, but you scared me. Big sister, are you going crazy because you can’t get the qualification?
Wosnidie: @Everyone, let me say it again, this link can download the cracked version of "Dark Land", please download it quickly and enter the game together. I will go and inform grandpa and ask him to download the game as well.
word麻鸭: It seems to be true. I have to inform Tieye. The strongest god of war in our group is finally coming back. I will go download it now.
……
When the group owner mentioned that he would notify "Tie Ye", group members immediately realized that this was not a joke.
Tie Ye’s in-game name is “Da Tie”, his real name is Li Tie, and he is the grandfather of the group leader Li Siyu.
He was once a genetic warrior of the Human Federation Judgment Army. When he was young, he went there many times to suppress the alien forces that fled to Earth.
After retiring due to disability, Li Tie suffered from severe post-war stress trauma syndrome. Wartime memories often flooded his mind, and he could not distinguish between reality and the battlefield. He was like an unstable time bomb that could explode at any time.
Under the guidance of a psychologist, Li Tie chose to enter the virtual game and continue to be a warrior in the game.
He is the top fighter of the Fanzui gang. He has fought in many games with them and is a well-known top player in each game.
Unlike ordinary players who play games for fun, Li Tie plays games purely to vent his anger.
So the players in the group realized that this was not a joke and clicked on the link to download the game.
……
Fog Light City, post-war sanatorium.
Gym.
Hu~hu~hu~
Rapid breathing sounds were heard one after another. A burly white-haired man was doing bench press training. The combined weight of both sides of the barbell reached an astonishing 800 kilograms, which was beyond the limit that ordinary people could bear.
Click!
The iron rod was inserted into the bench press rack. Li Tie slowly sat up, reached out to pick up the prosthesis and connected it to his amputated left leg.
Standing up, he was two meters tall and was wearing a tight training vest. His muscles were highlighted by sweat. Every muscle looked like a carefully carved work of art, containing terrifying power.
At this moment, Li Tie's body couldn't stop shaking.
Scenes of the battlefield emerged in my mind.
He was wearing black armor, and in the distance was a vast mechanical army that stretched as far as the eye could see. With the roar of energy cannons behind him, he led his comrades to charge at the alien mechanical army.
"kill!"
At this moment, Li Tie once again could not distinguish between reality and illusion.
When he calmed down, the training room was a mess and his fists were stained with blood.
Sitting dejectedly on the ground, he gasped heavily, his chest rising and falling violently with his breathing.
At this moment, the projector embedded in the ceiling started up, and the interweaving light condensed into the figure of a young and beautiful woman in front of him:
Seeing the scene in the training room, the woman in the picture looked worried:
"Grandpa, your condition has become serious again."
"I'm fine." After seeing that it was his granddaughter, Li Tie smiled rarely and continued:
"Siyu, what do you want from grandpa?"
"I found a new game that's perfect for you. The download link is in the group. Grandpa, please download it quickly."
"Okay, I'll download it now." Li Tie nodded immediately.
After turning off the video, he turned and went into the separate bathroom. After taking a shower and changing his clothes, he returned to the bedroom and downloaded the file according to his granddaughter's instructions.
Li Tie didn't have high expectations for virtual reality games.
The virtual reality games played in recent years are quite different from reality, and the sense of immersion is extremely poor.
In his eyes, stress relief in the virtual environment is secondary. What’s more important is that he wants to accompany his granddaughter to fight in the game.
An hour later, Li Tie, who appeared at the resurrection point in Dizhong Village, had a change of heart.
He stretched out his hand to feel the breeze brushing across his fingertips, and a hint of surprise appeared in his indifferent eyes.
What shocked him even more was that his lost left leg had real feedback in the game.
After walking around the central square of Tezuka Village twice, he was amazed by the realism of his left leg and realized that this game was completely different from the virtual games he had experienced before.
At this moment, a game prompt sounded in his mind:
[Player "Wosnidie" adds you as a friend, do you accept? ]
After the selection was accepted, a video chat request popped up in the upper right corner. Li Tie clicked OK again, and suddenly a translucent light screen appeared in front of him. A chick with fiery red wings excitedly said to him:
"Grandpa, we have already left the village and are heading towards the Bloody Plains. Do you plan to explore alone or join us?"
"I'll explore on my own."
"Okay, I'll call you when there's an event."
"Come on, Tieye. Take us flying when the time comes."
"Mr. Tie, long time no see...!"
In addition to the granddaughter, the video also contains the voices of other members of the Fanzui Group greeting each other.
The members of the Fanzui Group were not surprised by Li Tie's decision to act alone.
In their eyes, Tie Ye is always a lone wolf player who only appears in player confrontation activities such as guild wars and gang wars, and leads the team to charge into battle with his strong personal strength.
Leaving Dizhong Village along the bluestone road, Li Tie walked eastward alone, discussing the content of the game with the guide who followed him.
five minutes later.
Li Tie encountered the first monster since entering the game.
A foul-smelling cursed soldier slowly stood up from the ground and raised the rusty broken sword in his hand towards him.
Li Tie also switched to gargoyle form at this time.
Unlike other monster forms, the gargoyle form is the monster closest to human form. Li Tie chose the gargoyle because of this form.
Facing the broken sword coming towards him by the curse soldier, Li Tie took the initiative to meet it. He raised his hand to block the curse soldier's elbow joint to prevent the weapon from chopping down. He took a step forward with his right leg and placed it between the curse soldier's legs. He turned outward, and the curse soldier immediately lost his balance and fell heavily to the ground.
Then Li Tie’s heavy punch hit the curse soldier’s head like a storm.
Soon, the cursed soldier's skull was dismantled by a heavy punch and the fire in his head was extinguished.
At this time, a ball of black energy emerged from the dead cursed soldier. After briefly gathering strength in the air, it flew towards Li Tie and penetrated into his body.
Suddenly, an unprecedented sense of comfort burst out from the inside out, just like drinking a glass of cool drink on a hot summer day. The dormant body is completely activated by the flush of this energy, and the pores all over the body are dilated.
The wonderful feeling was fleeting.
After the first battle, Li Tie couldn't help but frown, as he discovered a problem.
The touch, smell, hearing and all other feedback in this game are no different from reality, except for the pain feedback, which has serious problems.
When the fist hits the cursed soldier's bones, there is only feedback of force, but the feedback of pain is greatly reduced.
This made Li Tie feel very depressed, and he always felt that something was lacking in the battle.
He immediately asked the novice guide who was following him if there was any solution.
After learning that the pain feedback can be adjusted, Li Tie decisively called out the function panel, selected system settings, and dragged the pain feedback progress bar from the initial 10% to the end.
After doing all this, a smile appeared on his lips:
"That's what makes it interesting."
【So cruel! 】
The novice guide standing by also gave a thumbs up to express his respect for Li Tie's behavior.
