The Game Warrior Volume 1 Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Thunders and lightening

In the west northern of Dali city.

It was on the 19th peak of Cangshan mountain.

A muddy figure was venting all his emotions in the heavy rain: "I am free! I am free! Freedom... Hahahaha. I am back. Dugu Hong is back…"

Though due to autistic and the lack of proper hormone secretion in his body, Dugu Hong was extremely excited that he couldn't suppress his emotions at all. After all, it was the first time seeing the world again over the past four years of being locked in the cave.

He kept running and jumping on the mountain, dancing at his will.

He felt that passion was emerging from the bottom of his heart. It was a feeling that he had never been before. This made him excited, made him shudder, and made him overwhelmed...

If there was someone around him at the moment, he would immediately return back to the lonely and cold Dugu Hong. But there was no one around.

At this moment, here, here. Here was his own world.

Freedom was crying out around the peak, across the valleys and screaming over the Erhai sea. It even overshadowed the successive thunder.

The tumbling clouds seemed to be irritated by Dugu's arrogant madness. The glaring light, with their roaring, cut off the gap between the heaven and earth, hitting the highest point of the peak, where there was A human figure dancing madly.

Dugu Hong was frozen into a statue with his arms and claws stretching out. He didn't even have the time to scream before the thunder hit through into his head, taking control of his mind.

The last consciousness in his mind was the electric current from the lightening. It hit directly from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet, with a mixed pain of numbness, tremor and tear.


[Rumor in the martial world]: Player Dugu was struck by lightning and died. Alert to all players to be vigilant and not go out in heavy rains.

The same night, Dugu's name was on the top of the forum's top ten unlucky players.

"I didn't expect anyone to have such a stupid name!" In the city of Dali, three arrogant players were ridiculing Dugu's unprecedented death.

****

It was an abnormal game break.

If the character in the game fainted, the system would automatically bounce out the forum interface and the game status would be showing "unable to log in temporarily".


If the character in the game died, then he should be able to resurrect immediate at the point where he died or in a nearest city.

However, neither the above happened.

The next morning, Dugu Hong woke up naturally from the slumber. It was right six o'clock, which was a set time for game breaks.

From 10pm to 6am the next morning was the activity time people used to, regardless it was in the game or in reality.


After shaking his head, Dugu Hong recalled what happened in the game.

The first thing, naturally, was to call customer service.

The answer was very routine:

"Please present documentation by the hospital if you are injured by accidents in the game. Then you may contact the customer service center."

"Thank you for your cooperation, goodbye!"

Beep…

When Dugu redialed the number, there was still a calm robot speech "Please call this number at least half an hour later, otherwise you will be harassed by the sixth night group complaint phone, goodbye."

Beep…

This was the typical response of game customer services in China. So even "The martial world", a game that had been outstanding, was only popular inside China and didn't have many players all over the world.

After putting down the phone, Dugu Hong tried to check his own body…It seemed that there was nothing wrong. He felt even better than before. Maybe it was because he had a good sleep with no dream.

He quickly put this issue aside.

There were too many things worthy of being angry. With talent of great memory, sometimes, he felt even lucky that he was a psycho. Otherwise, he must have been angry to death a long time ago.

****


Once again, Dugu logged into the game. He appeared in the resurrection point at Dali City. The system did not give him the option to choose his own resurrection point.

There was no doubt that his dead body was no longer in piece.

But, there was nothing to feel sorry about.

The system panel showed Dugu Hong all his loss: 7-8-92 cash. There was only 3-0-73 cash left in his pocket. Apart from cash, he had nothing left in his treasure pocket.

Before the screen freeze earlier, the three bad guys had almost deceived all the equipment and money from Dugu Hong. 

If other people came across what happened to Dugu Hong, they would have been disheartened. Maybe the only thought left in their mind would be to revenge.

But there was not much fluctuation in Dugu Hong's mood. He was always clam, even if his desire for revenge was so strong that it could overturn all rationality.

He was very clear that with the four years of isolation from the outside world and self-cultivation, Dugu Hong had developed outstanding internal force. But this gap of time had also deprived him of his cognition and knowledge of the game. He could only rely on the discussions on the forum, which could not completely replace actual game expreince.

Now if Dugu Hong rushed into other's homes and conducted mad screaming and killing, he would probably be locked back into the cave in Cangshan mountain for another eight or ten years.

Revenge was a difficult and tortuous process...

First of all, he should work hard to make more money. This would allow him to buy a weapon or a martial art code book.

Then, he needed to upgrade his level to at least the average level of ordinary players—level forty.

When everything was settled and the strength was enough, he could then start his revenge.

It was typical of his character of doing things—plan well before action.

The secret weapons in the bank, though they could immediately defeat the three bad guys, Dugu Hong felt that such a revenge was not enough. There was no better revenge than freezing their game for four years in Dugu Hong's view.

****

There were a lot of ways to make money in the game, especially in Dali city, which was a great place.

There were common jobs like guards and carriers.

The Dali city was full of mountains and plants throughout all four seasons. The job of medicine collection was a great option.


There were also jobs which they could find in nowhere else—planting flowers. If one could cultivate precious type of flowers like "Shiba Xueshi" and "Baxian Guohai", there would not only be high price offers but also opportunities to enter into secret gardens.

In addition, in the southwest of Dali, there was a place call Maanshan.

In the west of the city, there was a place to mine marbles.

In the north of the city, there was the Erhai lake, where people could go boating or fishing. With necessary skills, one could also netting fish in the lake.


In the end, Buddhism was popular in Dali City. If one didn't want to do any of the jobs before, he could go to become a monk. The NPC of the game treated monks really well. One could make a lot of money through mendicant.
