Under great pressure, you broke into the houses of almost all the villagers in Whale Island and searched.
You found that there were really no good things in the early days. You found herbs and a small amount of money in the bookshelves and wardrobes of the villagers' houses. You also found that there were things in the pots of the villagers' houses. break all.
You feel that you are going out of order, and you will go crazy if you stay in this world! How you wish someone could come out and stop you—someone who can talk to you! You kept breaking every jar you saw. Unfortunately, no NPC stopped you. After you searched every corner of their house, they still smiled at you: "Oh, it's carrot potato. , I heard that you also want to take the hunter exam this year, haha, come on."
Do you want to take the hunter exam? Why don't you know it yourself! Well, you think maybe that's the main line of the game's setting. But who will tell you how to pass the exam? !
The backpack looks like it will never be full. You always feel that you have stuffed a lot of coins and herbs in the bag, but that seemingly inconspicuous little bag will always look flat. Maybe this is also the setting of the game, you thought to yourself, you searched every corner of the village (even the chicken coop, you found two eggs inside), and finally stepped into the house of Mito house door.
As soon as you entered the room, you didn't go up to say hello to Mito, the plot character standing at the door, but you secretly paid attention to the two wooden barrels in the corner of the room. (You entered the house once before that, and you plan to loot all the items in the village before triggering the plot)
There must be something in it, you think. You walked around the smiling Mitoe and ran to the barrel like a hungry man on bread. At this time, a boy in green clothes rushed out from the next room, carrying a fishing rod, stopped you who were about to investigate the barrel and said: "Carrot Potato, Mito is waiting for us!"
It's Gon! You looked him up and down in a daze, the 3D Gon was not much different from what you saw in the animation, his eyes were big and energetic, and he looked at you seriously. But you know that he is also a character in the game and you feel a little bit sorry.
"I, I want to see the barrel first." You said unsurely, you wanted to make sure Gon
"Carrot Potatoes, Mito is waiting for us!" You try a few times, and Jack repeats the same dialogue a few times. You finally understand that this is the so-called forced plot, so you can only give up the barrel in resentment, and go back to greet the smiling Mitoe.
"Aunt Mito, this is a thank you gift my mother asked me to bring..."
"Oh, you are so kind, Carrot Potato is also a very good boy..."
Mito had a meaningless dialogue with you that you would like to skip by double-pressing A, roughly meaning to advise you not to run to the dangerous back mountain, and the hunter exam is too dangerous to advise you not to take part in something. When Mito was talking to you, Gon stood beside him stupidly. After Mito's long exhortations were over, Gon told you that he was going to catch the Lord of the Lake, and asked if you were interested in going with him.
"Don't do things that bother people."
Mit raised his hand and hit Gon on the head, and said fiercely: "You forgot that carrots and potatoes were attacked by foxes and bears in the back mountain, she needs to rest."
"But." Gon frowned, with an aggrieved expression on his face: "We made an appointment to take the hunter test together."
"Don't listen to this kid, go home Carrot Potato, your mother is worried about you." Mito said.
The conversation is over, and you are forcibly sent out of the house. You feel weak for a while, but you are still thinking about the wooden barrel in Mito's house. After a moment of hesitation, you turn around and enter the room again.
After entering the house again, Gon had disappeared, and Mito was still standing in the middle of the living room, looking worried.
"Ah...Carrot Potato, haven't you come home yet? Gon has already gone out, don't do dangerous things with him..."
Talk to Mito and learn that Gon has gone out to catch the Lord of the Lake. You wonder in your heart when Gon left. You were kicked out just now, and he disappeared as soon as you entered the door. Isn't this cheating?
It seems that the main storyline has already started. Whether you like it or not, you have to take the hunter exam with Gon. The task now is to go to the back mountain to capture the Lord of the Lake.
Ignore Mito, bypass her and go back to the barrel in the room, investigate, get the antidote. You don't understand why there is such a thing in the barrel, but you have no interest in pursuing it. This is just an RPG game, you tell yourself, put the antidote back into the backpack that looks like a bottomless pit, and turn around to go out.
Walk along the long mountain road into Lishan, surrounded by the smell of mountains and grass, you study the surrounding scenery while walking, sighing in your heart the realism of the game, the texture and smell are exactly the same as the real trees and grass, deep in the forest Unknown bird calls could be heard faintly, and there were even small bugs crawling on the mud under his feet.
But why only the characters are not endowed with artificial intelligence? Everyone seems to be locked in by a program, and they can only repeat fixed lines mechanically. There seems to be no degree of freedom in the game, and the main plot has been set. It's just that the original author of the manga, Togashi Yoshihirohas been procrastinating, and he doesn't know how to pass the level.
You secretly sighed, the game has just started, you decide not to think about these things, and go find Gon for now. I read the original manga four or five years ago, and the author has been procrastinating for so long that you can hardly remember the plot in the manga, but you still know that you should go to the lake now.
Continue to advance along the mountain path, and after a few steps, you suddenly hear rustling sounds from the bushes not far away.
Is it a beast of the mountain?
You feel a little uneasy, the movement in the bushes is getting bigger and bigger, you can't help but quicken your pace and plan to leave as soon as possible, when you suddenly hear a howling wolf, and then a black figure jumps out of the bushes.
"Wow!" You yelled in shock, your feet slipped and you couldn't stand and fell to the ground. A gray-skinned wild wolf with white spots on its forehead jumped in front of you.
You were startled and frightened, your legs were weak, and you were so frightened that you couldn't make a sound! Help! The scariest animals you'll ever see in your life are black bears in a zoo, but they're caged and non-aggressive! Now a ferocious-looking wolf is staring at you with saliva dripping from the corner of its mouth, as if you are its appetizing breakfast.
No, I've never heard that there are such terrifying beasts in the mountains besides foxes and bears!
You were so scared that you were about to pee, but at this moment, another voice came from nowhere, accompanied by a slightly cheerful music, calmly narrating: "The wild fur wolf jumped out."
"..."
So, it turned out to be a little beast that encountered enemies randomly...but you didn't breathe a sigh of relief! Even knowing that this is an encounter setting in an RPG game, you still feel very scared!
The wild wolf stared at you motionlessly, and did not attack for a long time. You couldn't help hesitating, and slowly stood up, realizing that the wolf was still silent. So you took a step back cautiously, trying to escape, but at this moment the wild wolf suddenly jumped up and pounced on you, and gnawed on your chest.
"Ahhh——!"
The piercing pain hits you, and you feel that you are going to die for a moment. The game has just started, and only Gon appears as a character in the plot, and you will die at the mouth of the wild wolf... However, after the wolf gnawed at you, suddenly He jumped back to his original position, still glaring at you with saliva dripping from his mouth.
System prompt: Carrot Potato failed to escape...
"..."
You immediately wanted to cry without tears, as if you saw that your blood gauge had dropped by one-fifth. Although the leather wolf gnawed at you, there was no trace left on your chest. But feel a lot Weakened.
And the fur wolf still squatted on the spot, spitting and staring at you covetously.
This game...is it still turn-based? ! How old is that game! bastard! even the Dragon Quest has changed the system! bastard!
But now is not the time to think about these things, you understand that this is an unavoidable battle in the game, so you have to bite the bullet, but you remember that you have no weapons! There is a blacksmith's shop in the village, but you didn't carry a monet with you when you passed by there. No way, let's fight Pipiwolf, fight!
This is the time to test your own abilities. You clenched your fists and rushed forward to hit the Pipiwolf who was standing still (similar to Seiya's Pegasus Meteor Fist), when it was too late, the Pipiwolf suddenly moved and turned sideways to avoid it. Your fist then returns to its original position.
System prompt: Carrot Potato is not equipped with weapons, attacking MISS...
Help! What the hell is that annoying system beep!
You feel irritable for a while, but then the leather wolf suddenly pounces on you again, and bites you directly on the neck.
"Wow whoa whoa whoa—!!"
The pain caused by the skin wolf is far less than the panic that gushes out of your heart, and you feel that your life has dropped by half, and your physical strength is weaker than before! How to do how to do? If it goes on like this, it will definitely be over! If it's an RPG game... that's right! Reply props!
Pipiwolf still squats motionless on the spot, glaring at you with saliva dripping from his mouth.
You frantically rummaged through your backpack, the item to restore life... Which one is it? Is it the weeds pulled in front of the house?
System prompt: The hemostatic grass that can be seen everywhere restores 50 points of health.
By the way, this is it!
As if you had found a life-saving straw, you subconsciously stuffed the hemostatic grass into your mouth, and suddenly realized that something was wrong—wrong! How should this thing be used... Could it be eaten directly? !
Do not make jokes! You are not a cow! What's more, it's too stupid to gnaw and gnaw with a grass in your mouth during the battle, even if it's a turn-based battle, you can't accept it, and you can't even imagine that if you meet Hisoka or Kuroro in the future, what will happen with them? Do you have to keep eating grass and taking drugs during the battle...
...Help! Just thinking about it makes me feel so desperate...
Just as you hesitated for a while, Pipiwolf jumped up again, pounced on you and took another bite on your neck.
"ah----!!!"
You screamed in pain for the third time, and the system prompt sounded again: Carrot Potato gave up an action, and Pipiwolf activated the "biting" skill.
Does that count? !
Without time to think about it, you dared not hesitate any longer, dragging your dying body, hemostatic grass in your mouth, and started chewing voraciously. Bah bah, the taste is no different from green grass! And why does the taste of this grass have to be restored to reality? You are thinking about this question depressedly, and at the same time feel that your body has regained strength, and the effect is amazing, but before you have time to be happy, the leather wolf pounces on you again and bites you.
"Whoaaaaaaah!"
Miss...
"woo woo woo woo--!!"
Miss...
"Wooooooooooo!"
Miss...
no! No way! Does it have to be a weapon? !
The medicine is almost finished, and you still haven't attacked the wild fur wolf. Under the continuous attack of the fur wolf, you are so painful that you are almost hallucinating. You fantasize about the big black characters on the computer screen: "No one has ever seen carrot potato again..." Then you think about what will happen if you hang up in this game... Just when you are desperate, the one who owes you so much that you want to play, That, the system sound that you want to fight it sounds again, reminding you: "Gon has joined the battle".
"You're so careless! Carrot potato!"
Gon shouted loudly at you, and at the same time rushed forward and punched the wild fur wolf, ending the fight instantly.
Gon——! !
It's a forced plot! There's a good side to old school RPG, you tearfully think...
But the wild fur wolf that you couldn't hit with a single blow was killed by the original protagonist with a single punch? !
Is this... the gap too big? ! Do you really want to take the hunter exam at this level?
But now you don't have much physical strength to think about those things, and you suddenly feel that the protagonist of HUNTERXHUNTER, which you have never liked very much, is so dazzling at this moment. Yes, Gon saved you! He saved you from wild fur wolves!
"Gon, I—"
"How can you go out on an adventure without a weapon!"
Before you had time to thank you, Gon interrupted you loudly, stared at you firmly and resolutely, and reprimanded loudly: "Carrot Potato, you can't move on anymore, go home and get the weapon! I will Waiting for you by the central lake!"
