Chapter 8
Breaking the Stalemate

Aurelia fell into the sea again and drowned.

【You died】

【You're trying something, but it's pointless, you died miserably, it makes me laugh.】

Accompanied by a line of sarcastic text and a strange laugh, Aurelia felt her anger rising, and began to curse the game developer a few times before thinking about it.

First of all, setting aside the extremely annoying sarcastic laughter and text, as well as the ridiculously rudimentary system that didn't even have main quest prompts, this game was definitely a masterpiece!

Everything Aurelia could see with her own eyes was so real, the things and people inside the ship, it was like they were real, that feeling of the storm coming, the oppressive feeling of the giant ancient dragon that she couldn't see in its entirety, this feeling was something Aurelia had never felt before.

——Tension, excitement, thrill?

All of it!

Is it a dream? Or a virtual game?

Aurelia questioned, if it was a dream, why was it so game-like, could it be that she played too many games, affecting her dreams?

The possibility of a dream seemed very low.

Virtual game?

But did she play any virtual games, and that too, this kind of fully immersive game that only appeared in free animated movies?

Aurelia reviewed the world she knew, it seemed…the virtual technology in her world was still stuck in the era of rudimentary VR headsets, yes, that damn heavy helmet, using visual differences to display 3D effects, in reality, not only were the effects mediocre, but it was also easy to get dizzy after playing for too long, that trashy thing!

Compared to the complete virtual mode now, it was simply the difference between a bicycle and a spaceship!

The difference was too great!

Aurelia didn't think her world could suddenly develop this kind of technology.

Could it be——that she was actually dreaming?

Slap————

“It hurts————who came up with this way to wake up from a dream, it's not easy at all!” A slap down, her face was swollen, Aurelia cried with tears.

However, as a game enthusiast, since she had entered this game, she had to seize the time to play, maybe after the dream woke up, there would be no chance to come back and experience it again!

“The thing to consider now is how to survive the attack of the Melting Mountain Dragon…From the time I woke up until the Melting Mountain Dragon attacked the ship, it's been about 10 minutes, what can I do during this time…Escape? That's the open sea, there's no way to escape, I can only think of other ways…” Aurelia muttered, she remembered the difference between her first and second games.

“It's so amazing, my different reactions, even the NPCs will react differently…If the real world had a game like this, it would be a 3A-level game, no, it could be a 4A-level masterpiece!”

In the first game, Aurelia was clearly confused and didn't know what to do, although she got a little information, but when the Melting Mountain Dragon attacked, Aurelia fell directly into the sea and drowned.

In the second game, Aurelia tried to tell others that the ship would be attacked, but clearly no one believed her.

“I woke up from a drunken state, saying that right away would definitely be considered something I said while drunk, no one would believe me either, plus I was just an unknown player…They said I was an adventurer…It seemed to be different from ordinary people…Hmm…No matter what, trying to get the crew to be on guard, the possibility of getting out of the Melting Mountain Dragon's attack route was slim…”

Aurelia recalled her two gaming experiences.

“From the current situation, the Melting Mountain Dragon will attack the ship, the ship will be overturned, it will definitely happen, the only way seems to be to figure out a way to survive…Ah————This trash game, is it so difficult to start, not only do they not give you any weapons, they don't give you any game prompts, you just die, okay, will anyone play this trash game in the future? Producer, you get out here!”

Although Aurelia was angry, it was just a rant, based on the world's first truly virtual game, plus the immersive feeling of being in a different world like the real thing, Aurelia believed that even if she was abused like a dog, died like a dog, there would still be people who would continue to play.

Yes, for example——herself!

“Forget it, forget it…Maybe the game is still in beta…The system is a little rudimentary, it's normal, maybe I'm the first one to play…Let's think about how to survive first…The hull tilts to 90 degrees, it's too difficult to catch, it's almost certain to fall, isn't there any tools…Um, right, tools! Equipment! I remember, it seems like I have some equipment on my body!”

Aurelia entered the game again.

“Ah, finally awake, finally awake! Don't drink if you can't drink, one cup is enough.”

Having heard this for the third time, Aurelia ignored it and directly checked her body.

There was a small knife behind her…Too small, it's estimated that it could only be used to peel fruit, if she thought she could learn from the protagonist in the movie, hang on to the cliff with the knife when she fell off the cliff, then she would undoubtedly be looking for death.

Soon, Aurelia checked the equipment on her left hand, it looked like a…hand crossbow.

Hand crossbow?

Aurelia placed it on the table and began to check it.

“Hey, are you checking out the hunter's equipment? You're already impatient to hunt, aren't you? Hey, I'll tell you, this hand crossbow is new equipment developed by the technology department, you know, it can not only launch all kinds of things, but also catch trained winged dragons for fast movement!” The armored man said.

“You said what? Catch a winged dragon for movement?” Aurelia suddenly raised her head.

——That's it!
