Chapter 143: 52. ’Moonlight Hyena’ Issue One_1

The new players’ log-in time happened to coincide with the tail end of the old players’ daily gaming hours; hence, neither Happy Stick nor Bull Bull could spend a significant amount of time "leveling" with their good friends and old sisters.

They could only inform the noobs about the various settings and gameplay methods of this hardcore game as much as possible before logging out and remind them not to die recklessly.

The death penalty in this game is indeed a bit heavy.

However, when they saw the newbies brandishing their tattered weapons, wearing shabby escort armor, rubbing their hands together with faces full of anticipation, a sense of foreboding surged in the hearts of old players.

Perhaps the previous "tragedy" of the Bionic Snail was about to be replayed.

"Don’t worry too much, Stick Brother."

Before logging out, Meow comforted the worried Happy Stick:

"You simply can’t understand this game if you don’t die once. Their general gaming mentality is bound to cause trouble here. Even if you explain everything to them, accidents are bound to happen in such a hardcore and realistic environment.

You see, the clever Lumina could even die from slipping; that says a lot.

There’s no stopping it!

Chill, it’s just three days. We can still catch the tail end of the Cardman City event, and your buddies also need time to level up. I got a blood flask from Sir Morphy. Shall we raid secret repository instances together tomorrow?"

"Okay, let’s arrange a time to log-in tomorrow."

Happy Stick sighed.

He invited so many people this time and found it a bit hard to manage, feeling a bit thoughtless. But soon he realized, looked at Meow Brother in surprise, and asked:

"Where did you get that blood flask? The kind that opens secret repository seals? Why don’t I have one? Damn you, Meow, got a hidden task and didn’t share, right?"

"No, it’s not a task."

Meow triumphantly touched his grubby Spiritual Energy pouch and whispered:

"Sir Morphy only made three blood flasks in total, gave me one, Bull Bull one, and possibly left one for the ’night shift’ guys.

I suspect it’s a player benefit given after raising affinity?"

"Damn! We really have to suck up to the NPCs, don’t we?"

Happy Stick had an "I’m a dignified man; I won’t suck up" expression, but after seeing Meow Brother reaping the tangible benefit, he also started thinking.

But this guy is pretty shrewd.

He knew that Meow Brother and those student gang members had been revolving around Sir Morphy, their affinity must be flying high. If he were to squeeze in now, wouldn’t he be begging?

No way!

Can’t be looked down upon!

Should find another NPC to... well, suck up to... huh, can improving affinity be called sucking up?

This is a part of the game. If you’re unhappy, don’t play.

With this mindset, Happy Stick logged out in the safe zone of the male player’s camp. As the game world visuals gradually faded, the view almost seamlessly switched to VR’s real world mode in the game helmet.

Stick Brother didn’t immediately take off the helmet, but habitually browsed the forum.

Being a former professional, he was accustomed to collecting tidbits of information from various channels as you never know what surprises you may find. A few minutes later, as he was about to take off his helmet to go for a jog outside, he noticed an additional post in the forum which was immediately pinned and even starred, right after being posted.

"Chao! Are they openly trading PY now?"

Happy Stick made a comment and then clicked open the post, and found that having this post pinned and starred had its reasons.

The story even had an odd name, "Moonlight Hyena", and marked "the first issue" at the end, apparently planning a series.

As for the author, just have a look at the name, tells all.

"Hey, brothers and sisters battling in Cardman City, how are you doing? Your dear Brother Yao is here. Considering new players might face various problems when they enter the game, I decided to summarize the game information I collected and solve your doubts.

First of all, the game background!

"Real Different World" is set in a magic-like ultra-Middle Ages world. Why is it called ’ultra-Middle Ages’?

This world not only has Spiritual Energy but also contains very cool fantasy engineering or steam-engineered elements.

My pals and I found mechanical refrigerators powered by steam, automatic cleaning machines, kitchen assistants, and even tri-walkers similar to motorcycles in the ruins of Cardman City. We took some time to examine its interior (basically, we broke it apart; hopefully, their owners don’t jump out to cause us trouble).

In short, we can confirm those strange-looking things are not just pictures slapped on; their inner structures obey specific mechanical principles.

Below are some pictures.

Picture, picture, picture.

After seeing these horrifically intricate things, you should have a clearer understanding of the game world you’re currently in.

Technology does exist here, although it’s different from what we perceive.

So, Stick Brother who chose the ’gunman’ profession, do not lose heart, might even use an advanced steam-powered sniper rifle to decapitate the BOSS from miles away, laugh."

"Damn it!"

Seeing Ayu mentioned him in the post, Happy Stick immediately flipped him off on his screen.
