MMORPG: Martial Gamer

Chapter 1689 1689: Forbidden Spell Magic

Actually, aside from Wang Yu's flamboyant displays of affection, this way of playing the game is quite pleasant.

Everyone is already tired enough from work, and to have to work hard in the game after hours completely strays from the original intent of gaming.

This is also why there is a group of players in the game who don't fight monsters but are instead keen on traveling around. It seems that they are the ones who truly understand life.

Of course, understanding life is one thing, but how to play the game is another. After all, striving for success is an aspiration in everyone's heart; not everyone enjoys a carefree attitude towards life.

……

After a hearty meal, the members of the Quan Zhen Sect leaned against the city wall in a line, drowsy in the glow of the setting sun.

"Eh?"

While everyone was closing their eyes to enjoy the afterglow, Yang Nuo suddenly pointed to the sky and said, "What's that??"

"???"

Upon hearing Yang Nuo's words, everyone jolted awake, quickly looking in the direction she was pointing, only to be left puzzled: "Is there something in the sky? I don't see anything…"

"Yeah… I don't see it either." Ling Longmeng and the others said, equally confused.

It would be one thing for the others not to see it, since not everyone is an archer, but Ling Longmeng and Yang Nuo both being archers should have been able to see it due to their professional passive skill, Eagle Eye. Logically speaking, if Yang Nuo could see it, then Ling Longmeng and the others should be able to as well.

"Look closely!" Seeing that everyone was looking at her with skepticism, Yang Nuo urged, "Right under the sun, a small red dot."

"Really?" Seeing that Yang Nuo didn't seem to be joking, Fearless took out his glasses and put them on his nose to take another look.

This time, Fearless finally saw what Yang Nuo was referring to.

It was a red dot the size of a grain of rice, resembling a bug, but more like a star; in the light of the sunset, it was quite unremarkable. It was unclear whether it had always been there or if it had just appeared recently.

One must admit, despite being an archer, Yang Nuo's eyesight was quite sharp. Even with Fearless wearing glasses that increased his vision, he wouldn't have noticed this thing without Yang Nuo's reminder.

As expected of someone trained in martial arts, every move can instill fear in ordinary people.

"Eh? How come I never noticed this before?"

Looking at the small red dot, Fearless couldn't help but exclaim.

"Let me see, let me see!"

Hearing Fearless say this, the other members of the Quan Zhen Sect immediately became restless, jumping up to compete with Fearless for the glasses.

Don't be fooled by Fearless being the leader of the Quan Zhen Sect; his skills were still far from that of the other members. After all, he was a priest and not a combat class, so he was no match when it came to grabbing things. In the ensuing chaos, the glasses were forcibly snatched away from Fearless.

"Damn it, be careful! If you break it, you won't be able to pay for it!"

The players of the Quan Zhen Sect had no concept of order. After grabbing the glasses from Fearless, they immediately began to argue among themselves about who would get to use them first, refusing to back down.

Seeing this chaos over the glasses, Fearless was anxious and shouted, "This is my lifeline! I usually hide in the corner to peek at the young ladies using these. If you break it, I'll go crazy!"

Just then, a large hand reached over from the side. Before anyone could see who the owner of the hand was, a voice echoed in everyone's ears: "Give it to me, let me have a look!"

The voice was deep and magnetic, familiar to everyone; it was none other than Wang Yu.

"Uh…"

Upon hearing his voice, everyone fell silent, exchanging glances with each other, and reluctantly passed the glasses to Wang Yu.

In truth, it didn't matter who looked first since there were only a few members in the Quan Zhen Sect, but whoever looked first would prove their higher status.

The reason everyone was arguing so fiercely was that none of them were willing to back down. After all, their strengths were fairly equal, and no one dared to claim they could definitely defeat anyone else. To avoid hurting feelings, they could only compete over trivial matters like this.

But Wang Yu was different; he had clearly surpassed this group in the Quan Zhen Sect, and there was no need to compare strengths. As soon as Wang Yu made a move, everyone fell silent.

What could they do but hold their breath? What else could they do? Challenge Wang Yu to a duel? Come on, it's just about the glasses; was it worth putting their lives on the line?

"You owe me another favor", Wang Yu said, taking the glasses with an annoyed glance at Fearless, then passing the glasses to Mu Zi Xian beside him.

Mu Zi Xian smiled politely at everyone, awkward yet courteous, and equipped the glasses before looking up at the sky.

"What is this…"

When Mu Zi Xian saw the small red dot, she couldn't help but be taken aback, and after a moment, she said in astonishment, "This seems to be… a forbidden spell magic."

"Forbidden spell magic?"

Hearing Mu Zi Xian's words, the members of the Quan Zhen Sect were stunned.

It was no secret that Mu Zi Xian had worked as customer service for Soaring Dragon Game Studios, but everyone knew that customer service was just that—customer service, not a proper game GM, and their authority within the game was quite limited. They had slightly more information than ordinary players, but not nearly as much as hardcore players with good connections to the game company's higher-ups.

However, everyone knew Mu Zi Xian well enough to understand she wasn't someone who pretended to know things she didn't. But the red dot looked quite ordinary, and even most people couldn't see it, so it was perplexing that Mu Zi Xian claimed it was a forbidden spell.

One should know that forbidden spell magic is the highest-tier magic in the game. Generally, it requires several people, sometimes even tens or hundreds, to use a magic array to activate it. Once a forbidden spell is activated, it can cause catastrophic destruction…

To call a mere red dot a forbidden spell seemed a bit presumptuous.

"That Bull Sister…" Fearless scratched the back of his head and said, "You must be mistaken; activating a forbidden spell creates a huge commotion. What's this little red dot supposed to be?"

"Not mistaken!" Mu Zi Xian said firmly. "This magic is the forbidden spell magic shown in the game's promotional video. It falls within my area of expertise, and I wouldn't make a mistake. The reason it looks small to you is that the forbidden spell is still very far from our world."

"Still very far from us?"

Upon hearing Mu Zi Xian's explanation, the members of the Quan Zhen Sect felt a chill run down their spines.

If it really was as Mu Zi Xian said, that this magic was still far from the world, and they could barely see it from the Twilight City, it was evident that this forbidden spell was comparable in size to a small asteroid…

Although this was a world of swords and magic where anything was possible, being able to summon a forbidden spell the size of an asteroid was indeed terrifying.
