Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes

　　 "Magic calendar 3401, rainy month, twenty-sixth, night"

　　 "The sky burns the city, the earth shakes, and it feels like the end of the world"

　　 "The color of the ring fades, the veins of the king fade, the nine cities floating in the air will eventually return to the earth, and the magical brilliance dims."

　　"—A Brief History of the Empire·Prologue: The Day of Destruction"

　　 Xia Yuan opened his eyes once.

　　 is a familiar mirror in front of him, but the person reflected in the mirror is young and strange.

　　 A standard face with melon seeds, with well-defined features, and a slightly longer light black hair. The pale skin flickered under the flickering candlelight, and the overall temperament seemed a bit strange.

　　 Raised his hand in disbelief, and pressed it on his face with a slight trembling, Xia Yuan looked at the figure in the mirror making the same action, and took a deep breath.

　　 "Boom rumbling—"

　　 The huge thunder explosion sounded outside the window, making Xia Yuan, who was still a little startled, shaken.

　　 He remembered that this night, the power supply was short-circuited by a thunderstorm, and he had to light a white candle to light himself.

　　 Three days later-to be precise, after two days, twenty hours and sixteen minutes, the game that has been ahead of the entire era by a few years: "Mystery Era", the first trailer will be released.

　　 and began to release semi-open closed beta qualifications to the whole society, to announce to the entire era of his dominion.

　　 In this era when mainstream online games are still in VR, an almost incredible 98.25% immersive game is a dimensionality reduction blow to the entire game industry.

　　 The closed beta was launched a week after the trailer was released, and major studios confirmed that its promotion was not an exaggeration, but an afterthought.

　　 decisively began to cancel all other game businesses one after another, and fully moved to "Mystery Era".

　　 When the fifteen-day closed beta was over, ordinary players who were already greedy and couldn't stand it swarmed in. For a time, the price of game materials soared, and countless people rely on this game to get rich overnight.

　　 Half a month after "Mysterious Age" was officially launched, the daily activity of all the other games had almost dropped to zero.

　　 I don’t know how many game company bosses pulled their hair out for this, and the wig industry has ushered in a small wave of craze.

　　 It is rumored that when "Mysterious Era" first came out, the boss of a big game company didn't give up and found the chief engineer of the company's R&D department.

　　 hope to crack the principle of the "Mysterious Age" game helmet and game cabin within three months, and develop similar equipment.

　　 The chief engineer told him in a polite and polite way: He lives in a dream.

　　 If someone can crack the principle of that strange helmet within a year, he can take his ball off and kick the cracker!

　　 After hitting a wall in the technical department, there is still a trace of luck to the boss in my heart to find a game engineer,

　　 But when he entered the personal office of the chief game engineer, he was shocked to find that this guy was actually lazy and played "Mysterious Era" during work!

　　Of course, game company bosses won’t just wait and die. They hired some experts and professors to trumpet that this game is too real and may cause serious identity recognition barriers for players.

　　 And for this reason, I hope that the family can make a move to completely ban this game.

　　 But afterwards, for unknown reasons, these ‘experts’ soon died down one by one, and had no effect on the release of "Mysterious Age" at all.

　　……

　　 Xia Yuan exhaled, patted his face lightly, and his brain started thinking quickly.

　　 Apart from anything else, I have to find a way to accept an internal beta quota for "Mysterious Era".

　　 Although it is said that the files will be deleted after the internal test is over, only those who are qualified for the internal test can get the priority to purchase the first-generation game pod, which is issued in a limited edition worldwide.

　　 The game official has only put 5,000 game pods on the continent where Xia Yuan is located.

　　 Except for the five hundred additional names that are available for purchase by closed beta players, the remaining four thousand and five hundred are not accessible to ordinary casual players at all, and they were booked early even before they entered the market.

　　 The biggest difference between the first-generation game helmet and the game cabin is the limitation of online time.

　　 The helmet can only be online for up to 16 hours a day, and the game cabin can be online for 18 hours. This causes game cabin players to have one-eighth more game time than helmet players!

　　 For Gaowan who takes this as a career, this is the difference between heaven and earth. And everyone's helmet is tied to the identity, and it doesn't work to replace the equipment to circumvent the restrictions.

　　 In addition, there is also the nutrient solution that matches the first-generation game cabin. It is also a good thing, but it is only sold to players who own the game cabin.

　　 It is rumored that the first-generation nutrient solution has some hidden benefits to the human body. After only one month of sale, the supply ceased. The price increase in the future is even more ridiculous than the house!

　　 Before his rebirth, Xia Yuan was just an ordinary casual player, and his family was not wealthy.

　　 As a matter of course, he didn't get the internal test quota, didn't buy the first-generation game pod, and didn't stock up the first-generation nutrient solution. All the chances of making money were perfectly avoided by him.

　　 When he played Boss, he didn't realize that his dodge skills were so slippery!

　　Although his skills and consciousness are considered high-end level, due to the time limit of the game, he has gradually opened a gap with the first echelon who uses the game pod.

　　 This was directly fed back to his income, which caused him to be ashamed of his pocket when the second-generation game compartment and nutrient solution were sold at a lower price and unlimited quantity a month later.

　　 It wasn't until the game was almost the third month that he barely made up what he needed. But at this time, his level has already opened a gap with the first echelon.

　　 So, he also let himself go, no longer obsessed with leveling and improving his strength, but to linger back and forth between the famous libraries in mainland China.

　　 began to study documents from various places that recorded "backstory", trying to find clues related to treasures, hidden tasks, hidden occupations, etc.

　　 This type of player is collectively referred to as story-streaming players, and there are also a lot of them.

　　 Xia Yuan's logical analysis ability, insight and luck are all good. In the end, he really discovered several hidden missions and relics through careful collection and sorting of information, obtained a lot of good things, and returned his strength to the first echelon.

　　 This has made him famous among plot stream players, and he was given the nickname "Lucky Silver Hand".

　　 In the process, he also accidentally unlocked a hidden title: [Junior Ruin Scholar], when trading unidentified ruin items, you can get a 5% price correction.

　　 From then on, a door to a new world opened to him. The incomparably true background story of "Mysterious Age" made him fascinated, and he even took the exploration of ancient mysteries as the main task without doing his job.

　　 暓嚓—Boom and Rumble—

　　 Another huge explosion of thunder resounded across the sky, pulling his thoughts back to reality.

　　 "There are still ten days before the internal test qualification is issued, that's enough..."

　　 temporarily let go of his thoughts, looking at the young version of himself in the mirror, an uncontrollable smile climbed onto Xia Yuan's cheek.

　　 For a moment, he was full of pride in his chest, and he couldn't help raising his chin slightly, with his left hand resting behind him, and his right hand forming a figure-shaped figure under the chin, and he spoke with great emotion.

　　 "Her grace and glory, the sun and the moon, Jinglun hides in the belly. The man on the street is like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world—"

　　 "Papa—Boom and Rumble—"

　　 As if responding to his words, a huge explosion of thunder resounded across the sky again.

　　 Amidst the thunder, the quietly burning candle flame suddenly swayed, and the shadow of the room squirmed slightly, as if it had been alive.

　　 Xia Yuan was unaware of the slight changes in the candle flames, but when he stared at the reflected eyes in the mirror, he could not help but produce a trace of impulse in his heart, his right hand was gently lifted, and his lips moved slowly.

　　 Speaking of it, I haven't done this for a long time.

　　 The rain outside the window was heavier, and the heavy raindrops crackled against the glass, the dazzling lightning continued to divide the dark night sky, and the huge thunder was endless.

　　 The dimly lit room showed a strange and inexplicable scene—

　　 Under the flickering candlelight, a young man seemed to be possessed, and constantly made some weird movements in front of the mirror.

　　 was also chanting strange syllables according to a certain rhythm, as if performing some ancient evil ritual!

　　 "Rock-paper-scissors-cloth!"

　　 "Rock-paper-scissors-cloth!"

　　……

　　 After a while, Xia Yuan finally decided to stop this meaningless action due to his right hand slightly sour in protest.

　　 I didn't lose a game, it was me!

　　 Nodded in praise in front of the mirror casually, Xia Yuan turned around and was about to leave the bathroom...

　　……

　　?

　　 At this time, his movements suddenly stopped.

　　 Wait...Just now the penultimate game, when I was out...he seemed, didn't he...have a pair of scissors?

　　 After carefully recalling a certain detail before, Xia Yuan blinked and his smile gradually solidified.

　　 Can I still lose when I guess the box with the mirror?

　　 It is still August in midsummer tomorrow, but Xia Yuan feels the air is a little bit cold.

　　 slowly turned his head, looked at himself in the mirror, and tentatively raised his right hand, the reflection movement was still synchronized.

　　 Did you remember wrong?

　　 He breathed a sigh of relief.

　　 "That's right, how can the reflection of UU reading www.uukanshu.com move by itself?"

　　 On the coffee table in the living room, in the dark display of the electronic watch, blood red colors form a row of cold numbers:

　　[23:59:59]

　　 Although he was comforted in his heart that it was okay, Xia Yuan decided to leave here quickly.

　　 But just as he was about to pick up the candle, the flame of the candle flickered inexplicably, and then it went out silently! The room fell into darkness in an instant—

　　 Xia Yuan was agitated, cold sweat suddenly oozing from his back.

　　 "Boom rumbling—"

　　 Just at this moment, a huge blue and white lightning pierced the night sky, accompanied by deafening thunder, the dazzling electric light suddenly reflected the interior.

　　 At this moment, he noticed a detail all over his body with upside-down hairs: the corners of the mouth of the figure in the mirror quietly evoked a strange arc!

　　 seemed to perceive his gaze, and the reflection in the mirror suddenly turned his head! I don't know when to turn into pure black and white eyes, staring straight at his face!

　　 Xia Yuan's hair is terrifying, and his brain is mad, he wants to escape, but his legs are still as if he is filled with lead.

　　 In the next second, the brilliance brought by the lightning disappeared instantly as if it appeared, and the mirror and reflection returned to pitch black.

　　Only the black and white eyes with reflections are still very clear and weird.

　　 Xia Yuan looked at the mirror coldly, and as his eyes met, a distorted and cold flow of information suddenly came from the dark mirror, and along the connected eyes, injected into his brain.

　　 It was an extremely sour sensation, as if thousands of small black ants crawled in in the gully of the cerebral cortex.

　　The content of the message is only a short sentence:

　　 "At the end of the seven light and dark alternations, you will come, Univar—"
