Chapter 283: Scarlet City!
Li Xiang opened his eyes and saw Lu Qingshui's worried face.
"I..."
Lu Qingshui breathed a sigh of relief, "It's great that you're okay!"
Li Xiang got up and realized that Lu Qingshui was kneeling on the ground, and he had been lying on her lap just now.
I should have stayed there a bit longer...
Around him were all members of the Gods Guild, forming a circle to protect Li Xiang in the center.
This place was still on the battlefield.
"How long was I unconscious?"
"Thirteen minutes."
Li Xiang nodded, took out the demon god halberd, "I'll explain later, let's go to the next town first!"
...
A minute later, Li Xiang arrived at a new town through God's Flash.
This town had also reached the second wave of attacks. Li Xiang went directly to the rear, found the Undead Knight, dealt with him in a few minutes, and then quickly rushed to the next town.
...
The Undead Legion Monsters in the eight towns in the morning were all dealt with in an hour.
Except for the first town where they encountered an Undead Tracker, no others were encountered in the remaining towns.
In the Gods Guild's station.
Since they were all their own people, and he had suddenly fainted on the battlefield for more than ten minutes, many players saw it, causing quite a stir. Li Xiang didn't hide it and revealed the effect of the Undead Tracker's eye, while also describing the effect and feeling of using Slow Vision.
Liu Yunfeng and the others were stunned after seeing the attributes of this item.
"Holy cow?! Are you serious?! Such an item actually exists?!"
Slow Vision...
What a perverted ability to make things seen by one's naked eye slow down.
It can be said that such an ability can completely allow the user to achieve 100% accurate prediction!!!
This is a BUG!!!
"President, when you fainted, there was no notification of any abnormal status, just a simple loss of consciousness. Therefore, I speculate that the usage of this ability consumes the mental energy of your real-world body."
After Lu Qingshui finished speaking, the Town Hall became so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.
It consumes... the mental energy of the real-world body?!!
This game is a full-holographic virtual game claimed to be 100% real.
But no matter how real it is, it's just a game!
If the game affects reality, it's not just a game anymore...
Wang Lei scratched his head, "This... impossible... The game just claims to be real, it won't affect reality..."
Seeing everyone's serious faces, Lu Qingshui pursed her lips and smiled, "Of course the game won't affect reality, but the President is using a gaming pod, which is a more advanced gaming device than a gaming helmet, allowing full consciousness to enter the game. This should be the reason why the President fainted."
With her explanation, everyone understood.
"Indeed! The game officials also said that gaming pods allow players' entire consciousness to integrate into the game, allowing for more detailed operations and better rest. Even playing all night won't feel tiring.
But I didn't expect that this ability would actually make gaming pod players more tired!"
"That's right, that's it!"
Li Xiang nodded, also agreeing with this explanation.
But he couldn't possibly switch from a gaming pod to a gaming helmet just to use this ability.
Since using the gaming pod, he hadn't felt tired playing games every day.
"Qingshui, is there a solution?"
Lu Qingshui nodded, "It's just a guess, the specifics still need you to test it."
"The reason for the massive consumption of mental energy, I think, is the inconsistency in the perspective of the left and right eyes.
Two different images are transmitted into the brain. In a state of full consciousness immersion, the brain has difficulty judging, so there will be a large consumption, like a computer processor suddenly receiving a large amount of information, requiring a lot of resources to process!
If you close your right eye when using it, it might be much better... Of course, this is just a guess."
"I'll try it now."
After speaking, Li Xiang closed his right eye.
Wang Zhiyan and the others immediately focused their attention, staring at Li Xiang.
The next second, Li Xiang's left eye turned blood red.
Combined with Li Xiang's divine gear, it had an eerie and terrifying feeling.
1x speed!
Everyone's movements slowed down in Li Xiang's eyes.
2x speed!
Slowed down again!
At this time, Li Xiang's left eye pupil was extremely red.
The higher the speed, the deeper the color of the pupil.
3x speed!!!
Boom!!!
An invisible fluctuation appeared.
Li Xiang's entire left eye pupil turned into a blood eye, extremely terrifying.
In the Town Hall, in his eyes, everyone seemed to be lagging, their movements frame by frame.
It lasted for more than a minute before Li Xiang felt the feeling of fainting, and he immediately stopped Slow Vision.
"Indeed! Closing my right eye significantly extended the duration I could maintain it!!!"
Lu Qingshui stood up, "Phew... Congratulations, President, on gaining another powerful ability!!!"
All the high-ranking members became happy.
As the game's number one player, the stronger Li Xiang was, the higher the ceiling for the Gods Guild!!!
"Everyone did a great job defending this morning."
"Let's continue to work hard this afternoon."
"Yes!"
"..."
There were still several hours until the Undead Legion attack in the afternoon. Li Xiang went directly to the post station in Wu Shuang City.
Target: Scarlet City!
This is a City that can only be accessed at level 50, but it is not a City, but a special City.
When he saved the Blood God Apostle from Chen Sisi, he told him to go to Scarlet City after reaching level 50, and someone would meet him there and give him the blood god stone.
Originally, Li Xiang planned to go immediately after reaching level 50.
But after reaching level 50, he was held back by a bunch of things.
...
Half an hour later, Li Xiang arrived at Scarlet City via the post station's high-speed carriage.
As the name suggests, the entire City's architectural style was dark red, and the gaps between the ground bricks seemed to be embedded with bloodstains, mottled everywhere.
The number of players in this City was not large.
But they were mainly Assassin class players.
Scarlet City is rich in equipment, rare skills, and various materials and items needed by Assassin class players. The quests and background are also very suitable for the Assassin class, and the headquarters of the Dragon Flame Empire's official Assassin Guild is also here, so it is called the 'Assassin Holy Capital' by Assassin class players.
Li Xiang, dressed in luxurious equipment, immediately attracted the attention of a large number of players as he walked through this City.
His equipment style was completely different from that of Assassins, so it naturally attracted attention, especially the demon god halberd in his hand, which had appeared on the forums of various cities countless times.
Therefore, shortly after entering the City, the news of Li Xiang entering the City spread on the Scarlet City forum.
But Li Xiang came here only to do a quest and get the blood god stone, so there was no need to hide his identity.
After walking around the City for a while, Li Xiang fell into distress.
The Blood God Apostle only said that someone would meet him, but didn't say how to find the person who would meet him.
This is difficult...
Just then, a cold light approached Li Xiang's neck.
Li Xiang's eyes flickered slightly, and the demon god halberd was instantly swung out.
The cold light disappeared, and a dark figure quickly retreated from Li Xiang and darted into a nearby alley.
Li Xiang frowned and chased after him.
