Double A In Line Chapter 23
byChapter 23 Chapter 23 It’s okay, just move forward
Cloud Corridor is a transitional map connecting [Sky City] and [Zodiac]. As its name suggests, this map is composed of long and thin corridors.
Before the version update, there were a large number of bird monsters wandering in almost every corridor, blocking players from going to the [Zodiac].
Now, whether because of the version update or the Valentine’s Day event, the monsters in the corridor have disappeared, and it has become a simple place for viewing scenery.
The corridor floats high in the sky, with large thick clouds below. Seen from above, the entire corridor seems to be held up by the clouds.
During the day, there is a blue sky above the corridor, and at night, you can see the twinkling stars.
Even before the version update, many players would come here specifically to check in – although they would often be disturbed by monsters.
“It’s so close to the sky here.” Cheng Yan sighed as he stepped onto the corridor.
“It is one of the highest maps in the game. It has always been very popular on the forum. The problem is that the level is too high. Many low-level players have complained on the forum.” Lin Sheng leaned on the edge of the corridor and stretched out his hand to explore the distant starry sky. “The key word this time is Luo Luo, right?”
“Yes, it’s Luo Luo?” Cheng Yan opened the mission scroll and confirmed it before answering.
“Then let’s go forward. If I’m not mistaken, that’s where it should be.”
Before seeing the keyword, Lin Sheng had doubted whether it was the place he guessed. After knowing the keyword, he was 90% sure of his guess. As for the remaining 10%, he was mainly used to make up for himself when he guessed wrong to avoid embarrassment.
After all, there is only one place in this map that is the most special.
The corridor on the map is semi-enclosed. There are half-man-high marble walls on both sides of the corridor. Various bird monsters are carved on the walls, all of which are monsters that once hindered players here.
Among these reliefs, one is the most special. Carved there is the mini-boss at the end of the corridor, Luo Luo Bird, who is responsible for blocking players from entering the next map.
When he reached the middle of the corridor, Lin Sheng thought that his guess was indeed correct.
There was no need for him to test it himself, as the large group of players gathered on the clouds not far away had already confirmed his guess.
“Is it possible to walk outside here?” Cheng Yan looked at the other players walking around on the clouds outside the corridor to check in, and poked his head out in surprise, “Won’t you fall?”
Looking at the floating clouds, I wanted to take a useless prop from the item bar and throw it down.
“Don’t throw objects from high altitudes.” Lin Sheng stopped Cheng Yan immediately when he saw Cheng Yan taking objects.
After all, there have been incidents in the history of the game where players on the map below were killed by props or people thrown by players on the [Cloud Corridor].
Quite a few.
Of course, Lin Sheng was no longer among them, because he was the one who hit people – and it was his own body that was hit.
“You can only move in that direction.” Seeing Cheng Yan looking over, Lin Sheng pointed to the relief on the right side of his body and explained, “The Luo Luo mentioned in the keyword should be this one.”
Although there are many kinds of monsters in the corridor, it is impossible for every mural to be carved with different birds. In many places, there are repeated carvings, but only the Luoluo bird in the middle section has a slightly special appearance – it has dull feathers, and the shape of the dull feathers is extremely special.
Cheng Yan looked in the direction he pointed, and when he saw the Luo Luo bird, which was obviously much larger than the other reliefs, he was stunned for a moment, and then shook his hand unconsciously.
I don’t know why, but looking at this pattern…he thought…hiss…but wouldn’t this be good?
Seeing that Cheng Yan was staring at the top of the relief, Lin Sheng put his wolf paws on his shoulders and said seriously: “Just do it if you want to. I’ve done this before, it’s normal.”
“?” Cheng Yan gave him a look filled with confusion and uncertainty.
“Don’t worry, I understand. It’s normal to not be able to resist when you see this thing.” Lin Sheng said with emotion. He was not so polite to this relief at first. When he attacked, he didn’t hesitate at all.
Although everyone knew that this was designed to allow players to better discover easter eggs, Lin Sheng was really curious. Wasn’t the artist beaten to death when the planner asked for such a design?
Cheng Yan stared at the stupid hair that extended upward from the bird’s head and then circled inward. Finally, he couldn’t hold back and gave it the initial skill that is given to players at the beginning of the game – Fireball.
Not only does this Luoluo bird have a target on its head, but the target is exactly the same as the one used by players to practice fireball when they first entered the game.
A player can’t bear to see it.
“Boom!” The countless times of practice had worked successfully, and the fireball technique accurately hit the ring-shaped feathers on the bird’s head.
As the smoke effect of the skill disappeared, the stone slab with the Luo Luo bird carved on it gradually became transparent. A translucent crystal plank road extended outward from the stone slab and connected to the location of the group of players outside the corridor.
“Let’s go.” Lin Sheng took the lead on the crystal plank road.
After reaching the end, looking at the thick clouds in front of him, he took a step without hesitation.
Turning his head, Lin Sheng saw Cheng Yan hesitating at the end of the plank road.
“It’s okay, just keep moving forward. You can stay in this place.”
Cheng Yan took a step in Lin Sheng’s direction and stepped onto the clouds.
A soft tread came from the soles of his feet, and this novel feeling made him couldn’t help but take a few more steps.
“Are we above the clouds?”
“Yes. The area here is very large, and I am familiar with the edges. You don’t have to worry about falling.”
Lin Sheng did not intend to say how many times he had fallen to death from high altitudes and how many levels he had lost in order to test and remember the location of the edge.
It’s not uncommon for players to fall to death while exploring the map. It’s just that they fall to death a little too often, which is normal.
“Okay.” Cheng Yan nodded and responded.
He followed Lin Sheng and looked around curiously. All he saw were players together, and he was a little confused: “Why can’t I find the NPC?”
Lin Sheng also felt a little strange, so he asked a player and found out that, unlike the first two maps, this map had no NPCs and was just a place for taking photos and checking in.
Just as the two were discussing where to take the photo, a faint red light rose from the horizon, then became brighter and brighter, almost dyeing half of the sky red.
Although the time in the game flows at the same speed as in reality, for the sake of the player’s gaming experience, the day and night cycle in the game is much faster.
Due to route planning, the two happened to encounter the most beautiful scene in the Cloud Corridor at the end of the journey.
When night and day alternate, one side is the night sky that will reveal some light, and the other side is the rising morning glow.
The clouds under our feet were also illuminated by the sky on both sides with a strange light, like a blurred boundary separating the two sides.
When the two took photos, the sun was rising slowly.
At the end of the day, it happened to be bright.
By the time we returned to the event ambassador to receive rewards, it was already getting late.
Compared with when they first logged in, the NPC was much deserted, but the two of them still waited for a while before successfully completing the task.
“Down.”
“I’m off, see you tomorrow.”
Although it had only been one day, the relationship between the two had become much closer.
This made the two-person copy decryption on the second day and the celebration on the third day go smoothly.
After a Valentine’s Day event, Cheng Yan’s level was already the same as Lin Sheng’s, but after they went online, they would still form a team to fight monsters, go about their daily lives, or just hang out on the new official map.
In reality, Cheng Yan has another hobby.
He moved his seat to the last few rows of the classroom. During class, he would occasionally look at the dense crowd of back figures in front of him, guessing whether [slow voice] might be a student in the classroom with him.
Whenever this happens, Cheng Yan’s eyes always fall on Lin Sheng unconsciously.
Lin Sheng always sat in the front row of the classroom. When the teacher asked him to answer questions, he could always answer them. He must have learned well.
But this person is not actually paying attention in class.
For example, now, Cheng Yan saw him put down his pen and start to operate the optical brain on his wrist.
[Dear player, congratulations on being selected as one of the ten lucky players in the Valentine’s Day event of “Dreamland” “Mountain and River Scroll”!Please use the participating game account to log in to the official website of “Dreamland” within 72 hours and enter the [Personal Center – My Activities] page to fill in the delivery information to receive limited peripheral prizes.】
Won a prize?
Lin Sheng’s first reaction when he saw this text message was that he had been defrauded, and then he opened the player forum in disbelief and entered the Valentine’s Day topic pinned to the top.
In the post, in the newly released official list of winners, the name [Slow Voice] is clearly on the list.
At the same time, the post also announced what kind of gifts the selected players can get – an officially published game setting set, and an opportunity to choose any official peripherals. Finally, these players also got the opportunity to visit the headquarters of Dreamland Company, and the company will provide them with round-trip spaceship tickets and three days of hotel accommodation.
Under this message, there was a large group of players lamenting that this was actually a “little gift”.
Forget about the setting collection and surroundings, the round-trip ferry tickets and hotel accommodation are not cheap. After all, Canglan Star, where the company is located, has always been known as a holy land for gamers.
After knowing that it was not a scam, Lin Sheng felt relieved, clicked on the website and started filling in the information.
Halfway through filling in the form, he saw that there were actually two round-trip addresses to fill in at the bottom, and he was shocked.
Because it is a Valentine’s Day event, the company can actually bring companions when visiting this project.
This stumped Lin Sheng. He didn’t know who to look for at the moment.
Normally, Ji Chen would definitely be the one to do this kind of event, but for the Valentine’s Day event, he was doing it with [Huo Huohuo], which made him hesitate between the two of them.
But fortunately, these two people are both in Changhua Star, so at least now I don’t have to worry about how to fill in the return address.
After filling in the information and exiting the website, the first action Lin Sheng made was not to continue reading. Instead, he turned his head and looked behind him.
Because of the awakening of his spiritual body, Lin Sheng’s senses became extremely sharp. From just now, he felt that there was a gaze staring at him, even if he stared at it for a while, why did he keep looking at it for so long?Who?
When they turned around, their eyes met.
Lin Sheng was a little confused when he saw it was Cheng Yan.
Why are you staring at me?Provoked him again.
Cheng Yan was awakened by this action and subconsciously avoided his eyes, lowered his head and started reading.
You must have gone crazy just now!Why do you think Lin Sheng sounds like [slow voice]?
Apart from their similar names, nothing else is similar between them.
Cheng Yan lowered his head like this, scolding himself, and observing Lin Sheng with his peripheral vision. When he saw that he finally turned back, he straightened his back again and continued to think.
Speaking of which, Shuangsheng probably comes from a family with younger brothers and sisters. I feel like he is very good at taking care of others.
And I had guessed before that he might be from a remote planet.
Speaking of which, the sound must have come from a remote planet. Cheng Yan glanced at the other people in the classroom.
If it’s a remote planet, will he be a poor student?If you are a poor student, it will be very tiring to study and take care of your younger siblings at home.
He was completely immersed in his own thoughts, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable his analysis became.
My family should be fairly wealthy.
In that case…
Cheng Yan had been thinking about this matter until after class, which made him less sensitive to the surrounding environment. By the time he realized that he was surrounded by a group of people, it was already a little late.
“Xiaoyan, why have you been avoiding me these days? Brother, do you think you hate me?” Li Chengyu stopped in front of Cheng Yan and said with a smile.
The author has something to say:
