Mirror World Administrator

Chapter 43: The Birth of Ziwei Star

Zijin and the other two were unaware of Lanshan's concerns and continued to discuss the matter.

"How about we drag people into the guild first?"

"That's right, a talent of his caliber, after a few more wild team raids, will sooner or later be noticed by others and brought into the guild before someone else snatches him away."

"Well, I'll tell the president now!"

Zijin acted decisively and immediately contacted a friend named 'Zuiwo Hongchen' in the friend list. Zuiwo Hongchen was the president of their Qiucaotang.

Zijin sent a long message to Zuiwo Hongchen, the gist of which was that she had discovered a very cool newcomer during her dungeon run today. She gave a brief account of the entire dungeon process. Of course, in order to highlight the newcomer's 'coolness', she inevitably used some exaggeration. With all the embellishments, she almost portrayed this newcomer as a rare and unparalleled genius. If you don't hurry up and recruit him to join the guild, he will be snatched away by someone else in minutes, and you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life.

This piece of news stunned Zuiwo Hongchen. He wondered what kind of person could tell her such mysterious things. According to her, this must be the birth of a rare Purple Star that only appears once in a century.

Zuiwo Hongchen certainly didn't believe it directly. It was not the first day he knew Zijin. This enthusiastic girl had the same style when praising people. There must be a lot of water in this description.

Fortunately, Zijin was not the only one who had seen this newcomer. Zuiwohongchen directly contacted Lanshan through the friend list and asked about the actual situation.

Lanshan's calmness and rigor are well-known throughout the guild, so his opinions are more worthy of reference.

Lan Shan received the news from the president and did not hide it. He described what he saw and heard from his own perspective in the dungeon without praising or criticizing it. He even told about the Taoist boy who seemed to have killed two jumping spiders but only said one, as if he wanted to conceal his strength.

After reading Lanshan's news, Zuiwohongchen was genuinely surprised. Judging from Lanshan's statement, Zijin's words weren't exaggerated at all. This newcomer seemed to be quite a talent.

"Are you sure he's a newcomer? Maybe it's a smurf opened by a veteran?" Zuiwohongchen went to Lanshan to confirm.

"No, he has a small sprout icon, he must be a newcomer." Lanshan said.

The small bud icon can only be owned by a person in the first thirty days of becoming an administrator.

Once this time has passed, even if you obtain a new skin, apply for a new forum account, and disguise yourself as a new user, you will no longer be able to obtain the "Little Sprout" logo. Therefore, the Little Sprout icon is the most accurate way to identify new users in the Mirror World.

"Interesting, what is his ID?" asked Zuiwo Hongchen.

"Qingyun Daotong 2457."

"Taoist boy? He looks like a Taoist boy?" Zuiwo Hongchen was stunned.

The Dao Tong skin is one of the most common skins, which is not surprising.

The problem is that Dao Tong is a magic skin with only one lethal skill, Fireball. Those who know the Fireball know how fast it flies, and with the Jumping Spider's attack style that jumps all over the field, it's almost impossible for the Fireball to hit it under normal circumstances.

If the opponent used an agility or strength skin to kill the jumping spider alone, Zuiwo Hongchen could actually understand it, but it was a Taoist child. When Zuiwo Hongchen imagined that scene, he felt like his CPU was going to burn out.

"How is the Taoist boy going to kill the jumping spider alone?" Zuiwo Hongchen asked in confusion.

"You ask me? If I knew, I wouldn't still be a two-star now." Lanshan smiled.

"..."

"I suspect that this person might be a special person in real life." Lanshan added his opinion.

"Oh? You mean, martial artists?" Zuiwo Hongchen was stunned. He knew that in the real world, there were indeed some people who practiced martial arts since childhood.

Although these martial artists do not have extraordinary abilities, after years or even decades of training in fighting techniques, their skills and reaction abilities far surpass those of most ordinary administrators.

Besides warriors, there are also special police, athletes, snipers, and so on. These individuals either have a basic combat foundation or possess certain combat specialties, and will adapt much faster than ordinary newcomers to the Mirror World. It can be said that these people are born to be suitable for the Mirror World.

The promotion mechanism of the mirror world is like a sieve. The repeated star promotion is a process of sifting through the sand. The real gold will be naturally filtered out in this process.

After these special personnel initially adapt to the mirror world, they will quickly be able to thrive. Then they will develop based on their own strengths. If they happen to come across a suitable skin at this time, each of them will have the potential to take off.

"I didn't see the man killing the monster, so I can't guarantee whether he is a martial artist. But one thing is for sure: when he was first swept away by the mountain spider, he was incredibly calm. If I had been swept away at that time, my legs would have trembled for a while, but this man didn't even blink. Just based on his psychological quality, he is unlikely to be an ordinary person," said Lanshan.

"There is such a thing... I understand. I will contact this person as soon as possible." Zuiwo Hongchen was also moved after hearing this.

……

At four o'clock in the morning, Yang Xu returned to the territory. He first found an open space and tried the "flying sword technique".

Yang Xu held the hatchet in his hand and mobilized the internal energy.

As the true energy surged into his hands, the hatchet flew out of his hands, as if held by an invisible hand, circling in the air, and finally hovered steadily in front of Yang Xu.

"So fast!"

Yang Xu's eyes lit up. The speed of the flying hatchet was much faster than he had imagined, and it was as easy as using one's arm, completely obeying his commands.

Yang Xu raised his hand again, and the hatchet shot forward. As he gestured, it spun freely in the air, as brilliant as a meteor.

However, Yang Xu soon discovered that the hatchet could not fly too far. Once it was more than ten meters away from him, its flying speed would drop significantly. If it exceeded twenty meters, it would lose control and fall to the ground.

Yang Xu glanced at the description of the flying sword technique, which said 'You can control the sword to injure the enemy from up to a hundred steps away'.

A hundred steps is at least sixty or seventy meters.

This shows that his current control distance is far from reaching its limit.

Even if his skin compatibility is not high enough, which limits the power of his skills, it shouldn't be that different, right?
Yang Xu continued to experiment for a while with doubts, and gradually realized: it was the weight!

The principle of flying sword is to wrap the sword with true Qi and support the sword to move. The most suitable weapons should be short swords, daggers, flying knives, and other light and sharp things.

Compared with these weapons, the hatchet is a bit too heavy. It is difficult for him to carry it with one hand, and it is not suitable as the main weapon for flying sword technique.

However, Yang Xu currently has no other weapons, and even if he did, they wouldn’t fit in his equipment slot.

The number of equipment slots is gradually unlocked with the star level of the skin. Initially there are only two slots, which will increase to 10 slots at level 4, and then increase by 1 slot for each star upgrade. At ten stars, there can be a maximum of 13 equipment slots.

That is to say, before reaching level 10, he only had two equipment slots, one of which had to be used for a storage bag, leaving only one weapon slot, so he could only make do with a hatchet.
