“The evil god isn’t as scary as we thought…” After the movie, the viewers felt like this Evil God Loki was quite entertaining.
“I thought I would be scared senseless by this movie!” Elf Girl Sala put down her virtual reality headset and began to talk about it excitedly with the elves around her.
“Such a weak god. Hahahaha…” A big white deer joined their discussion.
“I feel like the part when he caught the arrow is the most interesting.” A dog-headed man joined them too.
“I wonder if there are more ‘movies’ of this style!” some new customers asked while sitting down beside them.
“Sir!” The elves looked at Mr. Fang expectantly.
“Probably not recently,” Mr. Fang said, “We’ll soon have a new game, but not movies.”
“A game?!”
“What new game?!”
Even the assassins who were playing World of Warcraft in a zone quite far away walked over upon hearing this news.
Having spent only two hours on the movie, the players still had lots of time left today.
While the elves talked about the movie with Jiang Xiaoyue and Little Bell in excitement, others entered the game and began today’s exploration.
…
By now, most of the players had reached levels over 50 in World of Warcraft. Right now, the max level in World of Warcraft was level 60. After reaching the highest level, the players could choose to play different styles, including casual, PVE, or PVP.
During leisure time, the players could go to the battlegrounds and improve their combat techniques, or they could try blacksmithing, enchanting, gathering, or even touring the world.
On the windowsills at the northeast corner of the shop, there were several pots of blue gladiolus orchids, the special plants that could only be found in the Morning Light Empire. The dwarves and mages were sitting at computers near the flowers.
A box of spicy sticks sat on Mage Adolf’s computer desk, and he had eaten more than half of the box while watching the movie.
Without thinking, he stuffed one into his mouth.
“Elder Sauk, come and take a look at this blueprint. Can you create it?” Adolf asked with a scroll of recipes in his hand, “Some of us mages formed a group and looted this while you watched the movie.”
For Dwarf Elder Sauk, even though the artifact-making techniques in the Legend of Sword and Fairy 4 were inspiring, blacksmithing and alchemy were still his specialties.
In World of Warcraft, there were equipment that brought some classes great glories for one generation, and such god-tier equipment could be obtained through blacksmithing.
For example, the recipe for ‘Destiny’ that he was holding.
As everyone knew, reaching the max level was only the beginning in World of Warcraft.
Two max-level players would have a great difference in strength if one of them was well-equipped and the other was poorly-equipped.
As told by its name, Destiny had tremendous power in the blade, and the player with this weapon would feel as if they could control their destiny.
It was the first of the seven weapons in World of Warcraft that had legendary backgrounds.
Elder Sauk instantly widened his eyes.
“My goodness! What’s this?!”
While exclamation sounded, many people nearby also looked over and intensely stared at the purple epic two-handed longsword that could be made by blacksmiths.
“Elder! Can… you make this sword?!” Dwarf Warrior Raff stuck out his hairy head and stared at the screen with envy in his eyes.
“Be patient! I’m… doing the quest for the master blacksmith!” Elder Sauk looked smug. While he was chatting, he put down his virtual reality headset with his mouse cursor hovering on the recipe that he had traded from Adolf. “I’m doing the quest named ‘The Art of the Imbue’. I don’t think anyone in World of Warcraft is faster than me!”
“No…” Dwarf Raff said, “I meant, with this detailed blueprint, can you make it in your blacksmith workshop?”
He meant the workshop in the real world.
“This…” Dwarf Elder Sauk thought for a moment and said, “I’m afraid that I can’t do it until I’ve mastered all the blacksmith skills in this game.”
“In other words, it’s entirely possible?!”
The Art of the Imbue, as was indicated by the name, was to inject magic energy into items.
As a result, the equipment created in World of Warcraft had many powerful magic attributes.
On the other side, Grand Mage Adolf was studying enchanting and alchemy with many other mages.
“Hiss… Look at this healing potion; it can heal wounds in a flash…” Adolf said, “Dicas, I think we must study its creation process.”
Different from Diablo, one could find in complete production methods of things in World of Warcraft due to the existence of professions.
…
In a corner close to the entrance of the shop.
The golden griffin knights obviously didn’t spend much time on discussion after watching ‘The Avengers’.
“Huh?” After chatting with the elves for a while, Helen turned to look at Commander Elven’s screen and found that he had gone to the Eastern Plaguelands.
“Commander, what are you doing here?” Some knights came over and watched him play.
“Yesterday, in the west of the Eastern Plaguelands, I met an old knight who had been exiled for treason because he had saved an orc,” Commander Elven said, “My guts told me that there are some secret stories in this place. I plan to do this quest, and it will give me lots of experience points.”
On his screen was an old paladin named Fordring.
…
In the lounge area, the elves were still talking about ‘The Avengers’ that they had just finished watching.
They were sitting on the couches in the lounge area in a circle.
Elder Sewell was enjoying a mug of Cappuccino casually.
Sitting across from her were a group of orcs who were talking animatedly.
[Ding-dong.] Jiang Xiaoyue’s communication jade made a sound, and she took it out and chatted on it cheerfully.
“You guys all have this thing?! You can use QQ on this thing as well?!”
“This communication jade is an updated version after we studied the cellphones shown in the shop’s games…” Jiang Xiaoyue glanced at the elves. “Don’t you have this? I remember there are cellphones in the new game and the movie Resident Evil…”
“Aren’t they virtual objects?” Elder Sewell said curiously.
“But you can open and study them.”
“Ah-?!”
“We can open and study them?!” Elder Sewell looked astonished. “Then, then… The Avengers…”
Everyone looked over in astonishment.
“Didn’t you know that?” Jiang Xiaoyue looked at her in surprise. “We can do it in all the games and movies.”
“Ya-!”
We always thought they are fake!
Obviously, the elves and mages had always thought that they could only practice combat techniques in the games.
