Chapter 2 Artifact Start!
[System: Welcome to "Portal World I"! 】
[System: You have come to a strange world of floating islands, there are countless isolated floating islands, and each floating island has a large number of hidden portals, but if you want to use them, you need to use the obtained "Portal" 』The skills can be turned on, all you need to do is to find the portal to leave this world. 】
[Basic task: clear the game, and among all players participating in the game, the ranking evaluation will enter the top 70%]
[Reminder: Time is not the key to evaluation. Map exploration rate, item collection, monster illustrations, level, number of tasks completed, number of gold coins obtained by hand, etc. will all affect ranking evaluation]
[System: Obtain the "Adventurer's Handbook"]
[System: Obtain the skill "Portal"]
[System: Get 3 "Power Stones"]
[Portal: Players can unconditionally open one portal on each suspended island, and to open the second or more, each time they need to consume a "power stone". The farther the opened portal is from the portal to enter the island, the shorter the cooldown of the portal skill will be]
[System: There are three vacant treasure chests in front of you, you can choose a combination of equipment and props with a total value of 3 stars and put them in them, and then you open one of the treasure chests to get the initial equipment items in the treasure box]
"Three One Star"
"One star, two stars, 0 stars"
"Three Stars, 0 Stars, 0 Stars"
"Four stars, 0 stars, -1 stars"
"Five stars, -1 star, -1 star"
...
After a series of system prompts and simple game instructions, several combination options appeared in front of Chen Bing.
In Portal World I, equipment is divided by star rating. Five-star equipment is very rare, and it is considered an artifact-level equipment in the game, so many players will say that Portal World I will give artifact by clicking at the beginning.
However, this artifact is not so easy to give. Choose a combination of five stars and two -1 stars. It's good to win five stars. If you win -1 star, it means that not only can you get the artifact at the beginning, but also in the game later. To be punished - deduct the first two pieces of four-star equipment obtained by the player himself.
Four-star equipment is also not easy to obtain,
Being deducted two pieces of four-star equipment will make the game very difficult for players in the middle and late stages, so how to choose depends on the player's choice at this time.
Is it a big gamble, or choose a stable and law-abiding start.
"the last one!"
Chen Bing had known it for a long time, and he chose the five-star combination without hesitation.
The upgrade of the home teleportation array needs to clear the corresponding portal world game. Portal world I is the simplest, but it has a great impact on the following series of game worlds.
When entering Portal World II, the player will no longer have a treasure chest to open at the beginning, but will choose to inherit a piece of equipment from the equipment that the player has when clearing Portal World I and use it.
Even though I is the simplest game in the series, the equipment items in I are the most defiant, and the best equipment can be used in subsequent games in the series.
In the Portal World series of games, as the level of the home teleportation array is higher, the game will become more and more difficult.
It is said that the Homeland Teleportation Array is level 4. When you reach the Portal World IV, it will be very difficult to clear and upgrade the teleportation array. If you do not have enough strength, you will be stuck for a long time and cannot be upgraded.
In many game forums, many old players have warned new players that Portal World I must try to get the best equipment, and if necessary, you can choose to give up the game and wait for the next restart, because once you clear the game and rank in the top 70%, you will be upgraded. The teleportation array can no longer be entered.
If you have cleared level I and haven't gotten too useful equipment in the game, then it is best to choose to brush out useful equipment in II or III, otherwise there is a high probability of being blocked in IV.
Perhaps because of these old players' warnings, Chen Bing found on the forum that Portal World I was very popular, and many people would rather spend a few weeks in I than rush to upgrade the teleportation array.
After all, there are many home games, and there are new games to play every day without upgrading the teleportation array.
Most players have to use materials to upgrade buildings slowly in those novice games. There are only a handful of people like Chen Bing who can upgrade buildings with a bunch of building upgrade scrolls.
In the case that other buildings have not been upgraded, simply upgrading the teleportation array is of little significance. If you don't upgrade your hometown first and enter an advanced game, you will only be abused by others.
[System: Please select a treasure chest to open! 】
After Chen Bing chose the five-star combination, three identical rays of light floated into the treasure chest in front.
The game officially started, Chen Bing moved his hands and feet and could move freely.
hey hey hey...
"Record the origin of time!"
On the initial island, no other players exist. Before opening the treasure chest, Chen Bing used the time rewind skill.
Chen Bing didn't know much about the time retrospective skills.
He deliberately went to check the hour when he was madly using time back, and found that other players' games were not affected during that time.
It can be seen that the time retrospective skill can only affect a small part of the game area around him. As for whether it can take effect when other players exist, Chen Bing has no way of knowing, and he does not intend to try it.
Five-star equipment is comparable to an artifact in the portal world. It is worthwhile to start with the artifact equipment at the beginning, and it is worth spending a point or two to retrospect the energy.
Choose one of the three treasure chests, according to the statistics on the player forum, the probability of opening five-star equipment in the treasure box is about one-third.
The Portal World game opens once a week, and many players who are ready to buy top-quality equipment in I will take a gamble at the beginning. If they win, as long as they clear the game, the future Portal World series games will be basically guaranteed.
Of course, the one-third chance is an artifact, but the two-thirds chance is -1 star. In this big gamble, only a few people can win.
Chen Bing opened the treasure chest on the far left, and the treasure chest was empty.
[System: You open the treasure chest and get a negative star penalty, and the first two four-star equipment you get will be deducted! 】
Back in time!
The system prompt sounded, and Chen Bing immediately used the time retrospective skill.
This time Chen Bing chose the second treasure chest.
[System: Get the equipment "Jumping Shoes"! 】
[Equipment: Jumping Shoes]
[Type: Special Equipment for Portal World]
【Star Rating: ★★★★★】
[Special effect: Movement speed +3, gain stronger jumping ability, and can perform secondary jumps]
"Jumping shoes? This is good!"
Back in time, Chen Bing opened the second treasure chest to 5-star equipment, and it was still jumping shoes!
Jumping shoes can improve jumping ability, and can make a second jump, with this ability, can jump to some small islands around each suspended island.
These small islands, many players have no way to reach in the early stage, often have high profits.
In addition to jumping shoes, zipline claws, exploration helmets, and reset dice are all very good 5-star artifacts.
The effect of the zipper claws is similar to that of jumping shoes. It allows the player to reach some remote isolated islands and can also be used to attack monsters. The exploration helmet allows the player to see the location of the hidden door, where the player is Open the portal to enter the hidden map.
The reset dice is more powerful, it may reset all resources, monsters and tasks in the current room, but the reset requires 5 grids of energy, and the reset dice will restore one grid of energy every time you enter an unreached island.
Or use energy stones. In addition to portal skills, energy stones can be used. Any equipment and props in the game that need to be used for energy can be directly filled with energy stones.
[System: Find new equipment "Jumping Shoes", whether to record it in the illustrated book]
"Record!"
The system prompt sounded again, and Chen Bing was well prepared and chose the record.
ding ding ding ~~
"Adventurer's Manual" appeared in front of Chen Bing, making a pleasant sound.
When each piece of equipment is acquired by the player, the player can choose to record it in the illustrated book of the Adventurer's Handbook.
A piece of equipment can only be recorded by one player. The jumping shoes have been recorded by Chen Bing in the illustrated book. Even if Chen Bing dies and loses the jumping shoes, the illustrated book will still be saved. Players who have picked up the jumping shoes can only equip the jumping shoes and cannot record points. Bright illustrations.
Equipped with jumping shoes, Chen Bing tried to jump, and found that he could only jump 3 meters in a single jump, but when he performed a second jump, the distance he could jump reached 5 meters.
The height is from 1.5 meters to 3 meters.
"Roar!"
Chen Bing then called out the brave slime. This guy hadn't entered the game for a few days, and he was very excited. As soon as he came out, he looked around curiously and shouted in protest.
Unfortunately, there is nothing around, just blue sky and white clouds.
"Go, follow."
Chen Bing randomly chose a location and used the portal skill.
The birth island is very small, and the portal is the same wherever it is used, and the place to go out is bound to be overcrowded.
"Damn! A lot of people!"
"Quickly grab the experience stars!"
The scenery in front of him changed, and Chen Bing appeared on a huge floating island.
It's true that this floating island is already overcrowded, and at a glance, it is full of people.
Like Chen Bing, many players who had just entered the island saw this, they simply ran out more than ten meters, and immediately used the portal skill again.
Being so close to the portal that they entered, the cooldown time of the skill would be quite long when used like this, but they would rather go to an island with fewer people than wasting time on this overcrowded island.
Chen Bing squinted and looked around, then rushed forward.
There are obviously not many players with jumping shoes, at least not on this floating island.
The experience stars on the ground have been looted by players, and most of them have been robbed.
But 3 meters above everyone's heads, there are still a lot of yellow experience stars floating in the air.
Chen Bing ran over quickly, jumped, jumped twice, and rolled beautifully in the air, eating several experience stars in a row.
"Fuck! That guy has jumping shoes!"
"The artifact of the opening, the luck is also very good, right?"
When many players saw it, they immediately became jealous.
