Chapter 577: Resident Evil 2?
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Regardless of what you learn, whether it was martial arts or combat techniques, the fundamental skills were indispensable.
The sword techniques that were powerful enough to hack open mountains and rivers originated from the most basic hacking movements.
The grandmasters who were sweeping across the whole continent had gone through the same basic training when they were young.
Only on a solid foundation can tall buildings stand still.
Therefore, don’t be surprised if you see someone knocking down a huge dragon with a rusty iron sword or someone easily battling a heavily-armored fighter with bare fists.
It was because these people were truly grandmasters.
“If you’re confident in your strength, you can pick up a tree branch from the ground and make it the best weapon in the world.”
Regardless of where they were, what nation they were in, what kind of power they used, and how talented they were, cultivators and warriors must put great efforts in the training of basic skills.
Even on this land that was rumored to have G.o.ds, people believed that basic skills were important. In fact, the people here put even more emphasis in basic skill training than anywhere else that Fang Qi had been to.
Big and small nations dotted the land like dazzling stars in the sky or precious stones in a mine, making it look like that the continent was wearing a fancy robe. Among all the nations, the Morning Light Empire that had the surging Canglan River and misty Yinyun Spring, which symbolized life, was the most beautiful pearl on this continent.
This beautiful and rich nation enjoyed the reputation of the Nation of Skills.
This nation put the greatest emphasis on fundamental skills. Although other nations valued fundamental skills as well, the people in this nation put much more time and energy in basic training than the warriors and mages of other nations.
They had complete Martial Dao mystical realms and spiritual spells mystical realms for not only junior warriors and mages but masters as well. The latter group came into these realms to do some special training with suppressed cultivation strengths.
Perhaps before entering these mystical realms, many people had the misunderstanding that the basic cultivation mystic realms were only useful to beginners and could be discarded after one’s cultivation strength grew higher.
However, after entering these realms, the foreigners who came here to cultivate would soon change their minds.
These realms welcomed warriors and mages from all places. If you were lucky, you might even encounter the legendary elves in this nation.
These cultivation mystical realms were treasures of the city which was situated by Canglan River.
People pa.s.sing this area could hear groups of warriors in two or three discussing combat techniques.
With these techniques, they battled with dangerous magical beasts, hunted for top-quality fur and higher-level magical beast crystals, which was the livelihood for many people.
These realms were not open 24 hours per day. During the night, even the warriors and mages enthralled by these realms were reluctant to disturb the tranquil atmosphere of this city.
On the gravel-paved streets of this ancient European-style city thronged crowds from all over the world. This was a perfect capture of the scenery of this city.
These cultivation mystical realms all belonged to the Alchemist Union, and they had the highest travel flow.
Several young men and women with blond or brown hair had just finished cultivation. While wiping sweat off his foreheads, an innocent-looking young man with freckles was in high spirits. “Did you know? Earlier in the cultivation mystical realm, I defeated a grey wolf which was a level 2 magical beast alone! A level 2 magical beast!”
“It seems that my scores this term will be beyond outstanding! I think I can adventure into the Sunset Forest!” he said excitedly. It was clear that these young people were very interested in unknown and novel stuff.
They were drawn toward it whenever they heard about mercenaries coming back from the Sunset Forest with bags full of magical beast furs, alchemical herbs, and rare minerals.
“Grey wolves appear in groups inside the Sunset Forest. I hope you won’t wet your pants if you encounter them!” a brown-haired young man teased him.
“Right! It’s said that some senior students sneaked into the Sunset Forest and encountered dozens of grey wolves. If a group of mercenaries didn’t pa.s.s by, they wouldn’t have made it back!”
“Is it really so horrid…”
…
Through the door of the shop, Fang Qi could see a few oriental people with black hair and dark eyes mingling in the crowds. It was said that they came from another nation in the distant east. Of course, Fang Qi used these words to describe his own background as well.
The small shop had a brand-new and spotless outlook. With only about 100 computers, the shop was neat and quiet. Outside the shop was a round intersection connecting streets with bustling crowds. Through the door, Fang Qi could see the huge traffic and the giant flowerbed in the center of the intersection. On the giant flowerbed was a huge statue of a tall man lifting a long sword. It was a busy area that was good for business.
To Fang Qi’s surprise, after he opened the shop, the prize he got was the game, Resident Evil 2.
He thought it through after a moment of consideration. After all, most people in this world were ordinary, and the power of crowds couldn’t be underestimated. To spread the internet all over the world, it wouldn’t be wise if the shop only provided things that interested the few high-level warriors and grandmasters.
He would have to nurture the ‘young flowers’ with the very basic skills.
Yes, nurture. Mr. Fang thought that this was a good word to describe what he would do.
In the past, whenever he opened a new shop, there would be all the movies and TV Series. But this time, the new shop had only one movie – Resident Evil 2.
Together with the game, the shop offered only two items.
“Origins Internet Club…? What a strange name…”
“Look! There’s a new shop here! When did it open?” As usual, most people would show interest in a shop that they didn’t know anything about.
Driven by curiosity, these young people walked into the shop to see what business the shop was running.
Having just come out of a cultivation mystical realm, these young people walked into the shop and found that the presence inside was mystical and totally different from other shops. Even though the plants and decorations inside the shop matched the city’s style, the square-shaped objects that looked like magic items gave them a novel feeling.
On the counter hung the certificate from the Alchemist Union and the business certificate. Everything showed that it was a legal and formal business.
On the small blackboard was written: [Resident Evil 2 Cultivation Mystical Realm, 10 magic crystals for activation. Resident Evil 2 Movie, 8 magic crystals for activation.]
Underneath were the prices of items such as iced red tea and c.o.ke.
“Computer time is 2 magic crystals per hour.”
“???”
“Resident Evil Cultivation Mystical Realm?!” They looked baffled.
What kind of cultivation mystical realm is this?!
We’ve just come out from the Sunset Forest Mystic Realm of Alchemist Union after killing a grey wolf! Don’t try to fool me! What is this thing?!
