Chapter 288: Withdrawal reaction from the server suspension update
December 2064, 2.
beginning of spring.
Fights Break Sphere 1.3 version is finished.
Yang Shan had a good sleep and woke up early.
New Year's Eve is just one day away.
Yang Shan is preparing to set off today to go home and spend the New Year with his parents.
Yang Shan’s parents live not too far from Yang Shan, as they are neighboring cities and it only takes less than four hours to drive there.
Yang Shan didn't want to be too close to his parents at first, because otherwise he would be dragged back home to live with them, and he would always be nagged by them.
But Yang Shan also didn't want to be too far away from his parents.
You have to respect your own parents.
The first point of filial piety is not money, but companionship.
Not to mention every few days, even during the holidays, I always have to go back to see my parents and put their minds at ease.
When Yang Shan went downstairs, he also met the beautiful and magnificent foreman.
"Hey, Master Yang! Where are you going?"
Yang Shan: "Oh, let's go to Tram City."
Yang Shan remembered that the beautiful foreman was very pretty and had a good figure.
But now she is wearing a big cotton jacket and has no makeup on her face.
Yang Shan almost didn't recognize him.
There are always people who perform witchcraft under the guise of makeup.
The summary given by the guys on the Internet is really insightful!
The beautiful foreman said enthusiastically:
"Oh, Master Yang is going to change his car?"
Yang Shan answered honestly:
"I don't have a car yet, I'm just going for a stroll."
The beautiful foreman said: "Oh, Master Yang said he doesn't have a car, I don't believe it. Um, if you don't need a car today, I can give you a ride. Anyway, I'm going back to my hometown and it's on my way."
"Thank you very much."
It’s funny that Yang Shan has 300 or 400 million in his bank account, but he really doesn’t have a car!
The main reason is that after the launch of Doupo, he was really too busy. Every day he was either making money in the game or logging off to rest and exercise.
Even if you buy a car, you will hardly use it many times throughout the year.
Yang Shan went to buy a car this time, but not for himself, but for his parents.
After arriving at the place, Yang Shan declined the beautiful foreman's "accompany request".
I came to the tram city alone.
Although it is the end of the year, the salesmen in Tram City are still working hard for this year's year-end bonus.
Yang Shan first came to the BYD direct store.
As soon as I entered the door, a beautiful sales lady came forward and bowed:
"Hello, sir. May I ask what may I do for you? Are you, Master Yang Shan?"
Yang Shan then remembered that he was now a celebrity of some kind.
Although the appearance has been slightly adjusted in the game, it can still be roughly recognized.
Yang Shan did not rush to answer, but asked:
"You play Doupo, too?"
"Nowadays, what young people don't play Doupo? Master, I'm a member of Meteor Club, my name is Han Qianqian! But you must have no impression of me. After all, there are so many sisters like us, and you didn't even take a second look at me."
Speaking of this, Han Qianqian seemed to be resentful.
Yang Shan coughed twice: "Then you have to give me a discount."
Han Qianqian: "Okay, leave it to me!"
During the car-buying process, Han Qianqian was really busy, and even made five phone calls in a row when her supervisor had already returned to his hometown.
Seeing that the negotiation was not going well, Han Qianqian threatened:
"Boss! The person who bought the car is Master Yang Shan. You should decide for yourself whether the price should be lowered!"
The phone was on speakerphone, and the voice coming out of the receiver immediately rose two decibels:
"What? Is it the great god Yang Shan from Doupo? The one who killed the leader of the Eight Gates in front of Han Feng?"
Han Qianqian: "Besides him, who else deserves to be called a great god?"
Supervisor: "Fuck! Let Master Yang Shan talk to me so I can record a voice and show off to my friends back home!"
Yang Shan chatted with the supervisor for a total of two sentences.
The supervisor used his special authority, which was only available once a year, to reduce Yang Shan’s car purchase discount from 8.9% to 6.9%!
Yang Shan didn't expect that he would have such a great reputation.
So I said on the phone that I wished the supervisor all the best in the new year, and then transferred two red envelopes of 888 yuan to Han Qianqian.
One is for Han Qianqian and the other is for the supervisor.
Finally, Yang Shan ordered an off-road SUV for his father - Yangwang XU8.
Then I ordered a coupe for my mother - Yangwang XU7.
The highlight is that it treats everyone equally!
They are all top-of-the-line models, and even with a 6.9% discount, it would still cost two million RMB after completing all the necessary formalities.
Yang Shan's action of swiping the card to pay the full amount on the spot was so cool that Han Qianqian couldn't help but squeeze her legs together!
XU8, Yang Shan asked the direct-operated store to deliver the goods.
He himself drove the XU7, stepped on the accelerator, and headed straight for his hometown!
Yang Shan's family background was actually quite good; his father ran a small business and his mother was in charge of account management.
Otherwise, he would not have bought a house of about 100 square meters for Yang Shan when he just graduated.
Yang Shan's parents live in a townhouse.
Yang Shanke still remembers his father patting him on the shoulder and saying:
"Son, now that you've grown up, go out and make your own way. If you haven't made a name for yourself by the age of 30, come back and take over your dad's job!"
Yang Shan's mother was more direct, with just one sentence:
"Remember to tell mom if you don't have money."
Opening the door, Yang Shan shouted at the top of his voice:
"Mom! Old man! Come back home!"
Why do people in CQ usually call their parents "Mom" first? Perhaps it's because there are indeed more henpecked people in this city.
Father Yang walked with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, muttering:
"Glad you're back. What gift did you bring? Hey? San'er! How come your hands are empty?" (CQ words, Shan is pronounced as San, and Er is pronounced as Erhua. It is read together. Langge-how.)
Yang Shan took out the car keys from his pocket:
"How could it be empty? I bought a car for my mom!"
Mother Yang hurried out of the kitchen, unable to hide her smile:
"What? San'er, you bought me a car?"
Yang Shan: "Yes! Look up to XU7, more than one million!"
Mother Yang clapped her hands repeatedly:
"Okay, okay! The top player in Doupo is not an ungrateful person after all. He knows how to respect his parents after making money!"
Yang Shan was stunned: "Eh? Mom, how do you know that?"
Father Yang taunted:
"Little guy, when you were still a fertilized egg, your father and I had been surfing the Internet for twenty years! I was the one who chased your mother by typing on the keyboard. Even though we are old, we are not behind the times!"
Yang Shan gave a thumbs up:
"Brilliant!"
Father Yang: "Don't try to change the subject. Where is my gift?"
Yang Shan: "I bought you a pack of Huazi, hehe!"
"Hey your mom!"
Yang's father jumped up and did a standard split kick, but fortunately Yang Shan dodged quickly.
Father Yang: “Come here!”
Yang Shan: "I won't! I finally came back and you beat me up!"
Father Yang: "Come here quickly!"
Yang Shan: "I don't!"
Father Yang: "I collapsed and can't stand up, come and help me up!"
Mother Yang laughed so hard that tears came out!
At the dinner table, Yang's mother prepared a sumptuous meal.
Father Yang was playing with the XU8 car keys in his hand and laughing.
Yang Shan was holding the bowl, preparing to have a hearty meal, but something didn't feel right:
"Huh? Mom, why do I only have one chopstick?"
Mother Yang pretended to be surprised:
"Oh! Yes, how can you eat with just one pair of chopsticks? You need a pair. I'll get them for you!"
Yang Shan: “.”
The sound of my mother's abacus is simply deafening!
Use a pair of chopsticks to eat.
Parents are always concerned about their children's major life events.
As soon as Yang Shan picked up a piece of stir-fried meat with his chopsticks, Yang's mother asked tentatively:
"Son, are you in love?"
Father Yang slammed the table:
"What the hell is he talking about! Some time ago, I was watching the Doupo forum, and the whole screen was filled with this. It was so damn realistic! I thought he had done something evil, but when I took a closer look, I found out that this guy was just a scumbag in the game!"
Yang's mother said earnestly:
"Oh, San'er, you can't do that! How can you be a scumbag?"
Yang Shan: "Mom, I'm not a scumbag. How can the things in the game be called scumbag?"
Yang's mother: "I don't care. You are already 25 years old. It's time to think about your own business. Gaming is your career now. You don't have time to talk about it. Then mom will arrange it for you."
Yang Shan didn't hesitate for even a second:
"Okay, since you're the one making the arrangements, I'll definitely go, but I can't guarantee that we'll be compatible."
Yang Shan knew very well that even if he refused, it would be useless and would only make his parents more anxious.
Sometimes, just because your parents have different ideas from you doesn’t necessarily mean there will be conflicts.
It’s like a migrant worker working far away from home, who may only have five dollars left in his pocket. When his parents call him, he will still answer, “Don’t worry, I have earned money and I will have no problem with food.”
What's wrong with acting to make your parents happy and feel at ease?
Anyway, I was just going to have a meal with some girls who were facing the same problem, and after the meal we all went back home.
Just show your parents an attitude of "I care about this matter very much."
Whatever the result is, isn't it up to you to decide?
This is the skill that you must have as a child.
Coax your parents and then do what you want!
But at this time, as the "obvious" head of the family, Yang's father, who had already drunk two taels of wine, had something to say!
"Wife, remember to arrange a few more girls. Our San'er is now a big star in the gaming industry. He is handsome and has a good personality. Ordinary girls are not worthy of him! Let him choose! It's like choosing a technician in a club."
At this point, Father Yang felt a sharp murderous aura.
Yang Shan buried his head in his meal.
Father Yang used his own personal experience to confirm a fact:
Drinking can easily cause trouble!
Father Yang doesn't have the same ambitions as an old man but still has the youthful vigor.
But he does business, so he has to invite his business partners to relax. The clothes are all plain, but the girls are all fresh and beautiful!
Yang's mother didn't make a fuss with Yang's father because he had been working hard for the family for so many years.
The old couple have been married for decades, and it’s not like they’re really going to see their girlfriend.
It's just a massage, just like watching videos of beautiful girls on your phone for a few more glances.
This is equivalent to daydreaming in class.
Parents will be called if you skip classes, so what’s the big deal about being absent?
Mother Yang's temperament and thoughts also destined Father Yang to be controlled by her for the rest of his life!
The blind date arrangement for Yang Shan was decided.
Coincidentally, in a stray animal rescue center, Su Yitong's mother was also whispering in her ear.
"You are already 22, and you will be 23 after the Chinese New Year. You spend all day either playing games or taking care of the children here. You should think about your own affairs at least."
Su Yitang: "Oh, okay, mom, I get it. You just take care of the arrangements first, and I'll go when the time comes. But I can't guarantee that we'll be able to fall in love."
What Su Yitang was thinking was:
"Humph! You know I have social phobia, but you still want me to go on a blind date. I will put on some extremely ugly makeup and wear a mask. I wonder which man won't be scared away by me!"
This time, Doupo will be shut down for maintenance, starting from the beginning of spring and lasting for a total of seven days.
Originally, Tianyao Company wanted players to spend more time with their families during the Chinese New Year.
But when I got home, I found that my family members were all playing Doupo!
Both of Yang Shan’s parents created accounts in the game!
Although I haven't left the novice secret realm yet
The old couple met because of the game, and with the help of Doupo's "sensory time delay" technology, they can indirectly increase their lifespan.
So the old couple often play games during their non-working hours.
Although Doupo is an online game, the novice secret realm is basically equivalent to a stand-alone game!
Every player will only face two types of NPCs in the Novice Secret Realm.
One is the one who licks the boots on his knees, and the other one starts to lick the boots on his knees after being slapped in the face!
So Yang's father and mother agreed with each other that when they got tired of playing in the Novice Secret Realm, they would come to the Douqi Continent together.
But players like Yang's father and mother are generally older and use Doupo as a retirement entertainment.
The vast majority of players are struggling in the Fighting Continent.
Therefore, just after New Year’s Eve, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, many players were already clamoring on the forum for the official Tianyao to open the server early.
Even if there is a fee for logging into the game in advance, that’s fine!
How can playing Doupo be as fun during the Chinese New Year?
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Tianyao Company only released a New Year's video and asked players to hold on for a while, as version 2.0 has a lot of content and all employees of the company are working overtime to ensure that the new version can be launched on time.
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, many players experienced "withdrawal symptoms."
The food doesn’t taste good anymore, it’s not easy to play mahjong, and I don’t want to visit relatives anymore.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, at eight o'clock in the morning, Tianyao Company released new news.
That's about it for version 2.0.
This time, there is no actual gameplay footage in the expansion pack officially released by Tianyao!
Just regular script line after line:
The Tagor Desert seems to have been silent for too long.
The Gama Empire will eventually fall into chaos.
In the Izumo Empire, who is number one, the Poison Sect or the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect?
What are the Luoyan Empire and the Mulan Empire eyeing covetously?
The Black Horn region seemed to be in constant chaos.
Version 2.0, a brand new Fights Break Sphere.
We don't know what this version of the story will look like.
But we know that this version of the legend is all about you!
——Tianyao!
The content summary of the new version released by Tianyao Company is the most concise one ever!
The most content is about explaining the special rules of the Black Horn Region.
If you die once, you will lose three stars. If you kill an NPC, you can choose an item to drop! (Only one star will be dropped in a faction bloody battle, and players will kill other players, so you cannot choose an item to drop)
The end of the update summary also emphasized that in version 2.0, the player's influence on the forces will be increased.
So in theory, special plots can be activated at the same time in different locations.
The official strongly reminds all players to make sure to choose their main development area in the new version.
Because no matter which player you are, it is very likely that you will miss a lot of special plots due to geographical restrictions!
You must be mentally prepared to make trade-offs.
No one knows better than Yang Shan whether Tianyao officials have exaggerated.
In the previous life’s 2.0, just as what was said in the official new expansion pack of Tianyao, many major events happened in various regions!
Players who join various forces serve their respective masters and begin fighting for resources.
It's not just the civil strife in the four great empires.
There was also considerable friction between the four empires.
Canaan College has temporarily stopped recruiting students.
Players who want to go to the Black Horn Region and try their luck and gain rapid development basically have no choice but to join the forces of the Black Horn Region!
The Black Emperor Sect, the Black Alliance, and other first-rate forces in the Black Horn Region are all very good choices.
The snake people in the Tagor Desert were allowed to join as early as the middle and late last version.
There are perhaps 600 million main combat players in the national server now.
How will it develop?
Every player will face a choice in the new version!
On the fifth day of not taking the medicine, Yang Shan ate an apple with a numb look on his face:
"Shit, I'm having withdrawal symptoms too!"
On the sixth day after stopping the medication, Yang Shan returned to the house where he lived alone.
He had already made plans for the new version.
Everything that can be said to one's own employees will also be explained clearly.
Now we are just waiting for the server to open!
But this time passed just like when the author encountered a writer's block while writing a novel and had to grit his teeth and stay up all night to keep writing.
It’s really torture!
Fortunately, it opened magnificently.
Yang Shan could only order three technicians at a time, one to massage his legs, one to massage his hands, and one to massage his shoulders, in order to numb himself.
The seventh day of suspension of service, 11:59 pm.
Yang Shan had already taken care of his eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and went into the game cabin.
As the countdown ends.
Yang Shan roared:
"Fighting Break Sphere, start!"
On a quiet night, the four words "Fighting Break Sphere Started" echoed in the streets across the city.
I don’t know how many players logged into the game at the right time.
His sight returned to the familiar training room.
Yang Shan received a system prompt:
[Ding! Players, please note that you have absorbed a total of 100000 points of pure soul energy during this idle practice. Because you have practiced the "Na Yuan Soul Technique", your soul power growth has increased by 20%. ]
[Your talent is amazing. Even after entering the Spiritual Realm, you are still improving rapidly. The early stage of the Spiritual Realm is far from your limit! Congratulations on reaching the strength of your soul power: the middle stage of the Spiritual Realm! ]
[Your medicine refining ability, perception range, and fighting spirit control have reached a new level! ]
[Middle to late spiritual realm: 69922/500000. ]
Yang Shan took a deep breath.
Comfortable!
"I, Yang Yidao, am back again!"
When Yang Shan opened the door, he saw Zi Yan's face was puffy like a bun:
"Why did you stay in seclusion for so long?"
Yang Shan smiled and stepped forward, pinching Zi Yan's face:
"Xiao Ziyan, it's great to see you again!"
"Don't pinch my face! I'm angry!"
"What are you angry about?"
"The old man won't let me go with you, saying that I must either break through to Dou Zong or wait until you are ready to leave for Zhongzhou before taking me with you. Damn it! If I were Dou Zong, would you still not know what I am?"
Yang Shan half squatted down and looked at Zi Yan lovingly:
"You are Zi Yan."
There seemed to be sparkling in Zi Yan's eyes:
"I know, I just can't bear to leave you. If you leave, I will have no one to talk to."
Yang Shan smiled, and ten bottles of companion purple crystal source floated in front of Zi Yan.
When the soul power enters the middle stage of the spiritual realm, it is extremely easy to make objects float by using the mind.
"Wow! So many! So many!"
Zi Yan is still the same as before. When she sees spiritual plants full of energy, she can forget all her worries.
"Use it first and practice well. Don't let me really go to Zhongzhou. If you are not a Douhuang yet, you will become a burden!"
Zi Yan held all ten jade bottles in her hands:
"I'm not a burden! Are you really willing to accompany me to find my kind?"
Yang Shan asked back: "Have I ever lied to you?"
Zi Yan thought for a moment and said, "No."
Yang Shan: "Then why are you asking me if I am willing?"
"Haha, Yang Shan, you are just like your name, a good person. Hehe, I'm going to practice!"
Zi Yan held the companion purple crystal and went directly into Yang Shan's training room:
"I have requisitioned this place of yours. If you want to leave anyway, hurry up and don't disturb me while I am practicing!"
[Ding! Players, please note that your behavior has made Zi Yan trust you more. Zi Yan's favorability towards you has increased by 1. The current favorability is 29. ]
Yang Shan shook his head helplessly.
This little girl is really simple-minded. She just said she couldn't bear to leave, but now she wants to chase people away.
Whatever, at least I’ve gained the favorability.
Yang Shan activated his fighting spirit wings and flew away.
The direction he was going was——
Tagore Desert!
Emma, these two chapters are really scary to write.
There has to be a transition to reality, there is no other way.
Sky tried to write something completely different from the content in the game, and the transition was finally completed.
New version launched!
Please wait, Doudi, new fun will be presented soon!
Then, I would like to thank fellow Taoist "Longquan Shark" for his strong support!
There are elders in this book!
(End of this chapter)
