Chapter 225 Half a day of leisure
What is going on? !
"Upgrade and maintenance..." Mo Tan dragged the page back to the top of the announcement, stared at the title and read it several times, his eyes widened: "I dare to love the 12 people who are not allowed to log in every day in this game. Are the hours just a matter of shutting down the server?”
He always thought that the optimization, maintenance and upgrade of the Innocence World server were done from 7 am to 19 pm every day, that is, Players cannot complete it when they go online, but now it seems that is not the case. If what this announcement says is true, then today is actually the first official maintenance and upgrade of this game in a month since it was launched!
At first glance, this matter does not seem to be abnormal, and most players would not think too much about it, but Mo Tan feels it is particularly incredible. The reason is very simple...
...
"This is impossible! They must be lying!"
In a room that is messy and dark, but looks extremely comfortable if you look closely, a person wearing a The black-haired girl with round eyes sat down on the bed in a daze. She had a cute baby face. Apart from her underwear, she only had a slightly oversized T-shirt on her body. The large area of exposed skin made it appear that she rarely saw the sun. Extremely pale, slender and... less than 1.6 meters tall.
On the screen in front of her was the latest announcement from the Innocence Realm.
The girl named Futaba in the game and Muyu in real life was stunned for a few seconds, then clapped her hands hard: "NAVI!!"
"Yes~" The soft voice of artificial intelligence came from all directions.
“Do you think it’s possible?” Futaba stared at the monitor on the wall and asked viciously: “Based on the information I gave you before, do you think this broken game is really a month old? Maintenance only once?"
NAVI was silent for a few seconds, and then replied in its electronic synthesized voice: "It is not logical. According to your previous guess, this game needs to be maintained with high precision at least eight times a day. Normal operation cannot be achieved until twelve hours, and a 36-hour maintenance period is performed every thirty days. It's unrealistic, and..."
"And what?" Futaba hugged his knees and pouted, "Don't hesitate."
"And if it's like you said. Like that, all the NPCs inside have intelligence above mine. , given its huge base, even if it is maintained for 23 hours a day, it is not logical to operate normally for one hour. However, the premise is only the highest technical level that I know, and does not involve hardware or systems that may be developed by military or special institutions. …”
"Okay, I know what you want to say." Futaba shook his head and interrupted the other party. He slowly climbed to the head of the bed, leaned out half of his body and took out a can of Dr. Pepper from the small refrigerator: "This game It's not normal... Of course I know it's not normal. If it were normal, wouldn't I be able to get in?"
Click~
She pulled the tab on the drink and drank it hard. The two of them wiped their mouths with the back of their hands and hummed: "Huh, that guy from BLACK definitely can't handle it anyway. His level is not as good as mine!"
"But the hardware at BLACK is better than yours... …”
“Shut up!”
"Yes."
"...NAVI."
"Yes."
"Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year, Master."
"I haven't been able to play games for the past two days..."
"NAVI recommends that you pay attention to your health and continue to maintain the sleep time you have had for the past month."
"It's so boring, let's do it Follow that bastard~"
" But no signs of BLACK's activities have been found in the past two weeks. "
"Humph, he is probably trying to level up and waiting for an opportunity to kill me. After all, he knows his location, appearance, and profession. He will definitely not. Let go of this opportunity..."
"Please be careful, Master."
"Of course, that's a bitch."
......
At the same time
"A sneeze ! ”
Mo Tan, who was reading the official announcement carefully, sneezed suddenly, and then heard a cell phone ringing not far behind him.
He stood up and walked to the game cabin and picked up his mobile phone. The words 'Gay Friend A' were flashing on the screen.
"Hey, did you scold me just now?" Mo Tan asked in a bad tone immediately after pressing the answer button.
Yidong on the opposite side was confused at the time: "I didn't..."
"Oh, then I might have caught a cold." Mo Tan sat back down again holding the phone. At the table, while rolling the instant noodles in the paper bucket with a fork, he asked: "What's the matter?"
"Did you see the announcement? The Innocence Realm has been updated! We can't play tonight!"
Idong's tone was very tangled, and his excitement was mixed with a little pain in his balls.
"I saw the announcement. Is it weird for a game to be maintained and upgraded occasionally?" Mo Tan crooked his neck and clamped the phone between his hands, stuffing noodles into his mouth while already clicking on the game forum. , as expected, I saw a burst of mourning all over the place.
Yidong choked and laughed dryly: "Okay, actually, I just ordered a bunch of game cabins the day before yesterday. I was originally thinking that everyone could play together directly at my house tonight."
< br>"Haha." Mo Tan rolled his eyes and sneered: "Uncle and aunt are too spoiled to you. If you were my son, you probably wouldn't live to be more than a month old."
"Get out! I mean, hurry up and pack up. My parents ran away early in the morning! I'm so bored right now!" Yidong wailed on the other side of the phone.
Mo Tan: "..."
"Hello? Hello? Can you hear me?"
"Yes, I heard you." Mo Tan suddenly came back to his senses, He said seriously into the mobile phone: "I have to go downstairs to see the cat in a while, and then I have to pay the rent. If nothing else happens, I will be at your place in about two hours."
Yidong understood immediately. : "You were smart again just now, weren't you?"
"Yeah." Mo Tan shrugged, closed the notebook in front of him, and walked to the kitchen with the noodle bucket: "Is it that obvious?"
"Quite obvious!"
< br>……
Real time AM11:20
City B, a villa in Dexin District
Yi Dong opened the door and looked at Mo Tan in front of him with a painful look on his face. His expression was very distorted: "Is this what you call about two hours?!"
"What I said before should be 'no accidents' It will take about two hours," Mo Tan said casually. Idong pulled him aside and walked into the foyer in a familiar manner, changed his slippers, entered the living room, turned on the TV, and made coffee, as if he had returned to his own home. He even turned to Idong who rolled his eyes and ordered: "Get two cups." Come here.”
Idong curled his lips and said casually. He took out two cups from the cabinet next to him and placed them heavily in front of Mo Tan: "What accident happened to you?" "A very serious accident." Mo Tan shrugged and poured a cup of coffee from the pot. , and then took out a bottle of Dr.Peppe from the refrigerator at hand r, unscrewed the lid and filled another cup: "First of all, I used the money left over from paying the rent to update the reserve ingredients..."
Yidong was stunned for a moment: " Why do I still have money left after paying rent?”
Mo Tan threw the sugar cubes into the coffee carelessly: "Maybe it's because the landlord thinks I'm handsome."
"Huh..."
Idong laughed dryly and decided to skip the question. Regarding the topic of Mo Tan's appearance, he pointed to the two cups in front of him: "Which one is mine?"
"Not yours." Mo Tan took a sip of coffee first, then glanced at the other person, As if looking at a stray dog: "Okay, Dr. Perpper can be yours."
Idong rolled his eyes: "You know I don't like drinking this stuff."
< br>
"So I don't have it for you." Mo Tan put down the coffee, took another sip of Dr. Pepper, and said with a smile: "I don't have any complaints now."
Yidong was furious at that time: "I'm so rich Complain! I bet the gift you brought last time was for yourself. Prepared? Are you embarrassed?”
Yes, Yi Dong’s family didn’t have this kind of drink, but Mo Tan brought a whole box of Dr.Pepper when he came here. Its name is that this is already the most expensive thing I can afford.
In the end, he drank it for himself!
"I didn't let you drink it." Mo Tan shrugged and said leisurely: "What if uncle and aunt like to drink it?"
Yi Dong had no expression on his face: "My parents drank less than one bottle combined."
"What a pity." Mo Tan smacked his lips and sighed: "Then I can only wait for them I came here often to bother me before I was released from bail..."
Yidong felt that there was no need to continue talking about this topic, otherwise Mo Tan would be in such a mental state at the moment. He might make himself angry to death, so he continued to ask about the other party's lateness: "Where did you go after replenishing the ingredients? Did you get lost?"
As a best friend + a child, he was very interested in Mo Tan's direction. She knew very well that if the latter was really lost, let alone two hours, it would be reasonable even if he wandered outside until night.
"That's not true." In the end, Mo Tan shook his head slightly and said solemnly: "I just refreshed the mine clearance record a few times~"
"What the hell..."
"Then for the sake of balance, I also played the card games that came with the computer several times. I also had a flash of inspiration and made two mini-games with viruses, and passed them on to Just treat it as lucky money," Mo Tan said to Yi Dong seriously.
Yidong collapsed weakly on the sofa, gritted his teeth and said: "Are you sick..."
Mo Tan raised his glass in greeting: "You just know that?"
< br>Yidong: "..."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Mo Tan drank up Dr. Pepper and said seriously: "Have you and Xiao Ai found that guy?"
Yidong chuckled: "Found it , we found it on the first day we arrived in Salamun."
Mo Tan raised his eyebrows: "Be specific."
"You don't. "I told you that the girl's profession is a mage." Idong shook his index finger and said with a smile, "So I got into the magician's guild in Salamoon that day, and guess what?"
Mo Tan took a sip of coffee: "In the end, you saw a girl with orange hair, glasses, strong strength, and a height of less than 1.6 meters?"
"That's right." Yi Dong nodded and affirmed: "The name is Futaba. I found out after a little inquiry. That girl is now famous. No middle or low-level mage in the city does not know her. It is said that he was accepted as a disciple by Tara Xia, the great mage of the N series who is stationed in the Salamun Mage Guild. He is so powerful! "
Mo Tan picked his ears: "It's expected. I would be surprised if she couldn't do this. Do you know how strong she is?"
" I don’t know, I don’t have any detection attributes or skills.” Yidong shook his head and spread his hands and said, “But there are many in the Mage Guild. People say that she already has the strength of an intermediate mage. Based on the strength system table summarized by the forum boss, she should have at least one profession above level 18."
Mo Tan yawned: " Got it, you can do your own thing in the city during this time, do quests to upgrade and so on.”< br>
“What about Xiao Ai?” Yi Dong asked a little worriedly: “That girl has been a bit nagging recently, saying that you once asked her... Well, let me think about it, oh yes, It seems that you let her try to use magic without thinking about God, and now she feels like sleepwalking every day."
[Not against faith, but against instinct... She is really obedient...]
Mo Tan thought for a moment, then shook his head at Yi Dong and said: "If there is no obvious abnormality in the mental state If so, just ignore her and wait until I get there."
"Okay. "Idong nodded and said with a smile: "I recently took on a quest chain, which is quite interesting. It contains some daily quests for Salamoon, and the rewards are also good. Do you want to do it when the time comes... , you won't..."
He keenly felt that the painting style of the friend in front of him seemed to have changed again.
In fact, this is also the case. Mo Tan's elusive... or rather crazy but calm temperament has been completely gone, replaced by an inexplicable sense of warmth and a little bit... nervous?
"Hey, what's going on with you?"
Idong stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Mo Tan.
"I'm fine. We'll talk about your mission chain later." Mo Tan straightened up awkwardly, then coughed lightly: "What do you think of my appearance today?"
< br>Yidong was Shocked: "What?"
Mo Tan took a sip of coffee, then frowned and threw two more sugar cubes in, shrugged and said: "I mean, please explain to me the necromancy spell in detail. Plague Specialization in "
"No! That's not what you just said!" Idong jumped and shouted.
"Well, that's what I'm talking about." Mo Tan turned his head and sipped his coffee, and said with wandering eyes: "Isn't my priest helping to deal with the plague in Misha County recently? The reliable alchemist girl told me that those things are essentially undead creatures, so I want to ask your opinion."
Idong nodded pretendingly: "I think your outfit is okay, except for this. There's nothing wrong with it except that it's cheap."
"That's okay..." Mo Tan nodded, then suddenly froze.
"Pfft hahahaha~" Yidong couldn't help but let out a burst of laughter, patted the table and said loudly: "I finally tricked you once, tell me, what happened..."
Bang bang bang~
A series of knocks on the door sounded outside, breaking Mo Tan's dilemma.
“Go and open the door.” Mo Tan glared at Yi Dong fiercely and whispered: “Remember, don’t let out anything you shouldn’t say. Mo Tan is the priest Hei Fan. , other characters have nothing to do with 'me', do you understand?"
Yidong snapped his fingers: "Don't worry, I have been covering you for so many years~ Remember to go back and explain what happened just now. .”
“Get out!”
