Chapter 683: Call Me Koi

PS: The author's tenosynovitis has flared up, and my typing speed has plummeted. Updates will be delayed for a period of time. You can refresh later or tomorrow morning. It's just a bit later than usual.

This situation will likely continue until the end of the year. After a few more days of rest, it should be better, and updates should return to normal after the new year.

I apologize for the inconvenience caused to my readers, and I ask for your understanding.

Main text:

Although Miss Luo Quan didn't make any requests, the fans who joined the group still previewed their "homework" in advance.

The so-called homework is actually the strategy for each boss in the *Molten Core* dungeon. Many Bilibili uploaders have made detailed tutorials.

Although the data for the public beta and closed beta are not exactly the same, the overall mechanism will not change.

And because it is a pioneering group, Miss Luo Quan chose the second simplest "Normal" difficulty.

But even so, it was quite difficult to fight.

Mainly because some professions are indeed "sewer" (weak), and some players are indeed quite bad.

Fortunately, everyone mainly came to play with Miss Luo Quan. The fun of listening to her command and talk is better than the fun of exploding equipment.

As long as Miss Luo Quan doesn't get angry, they naturally have no opinion, and the longer they fight, the longer they can stay with Miss Luo Quan.

After all, this is a direct communication opportunity with Miss Luo Quan. It's not once in a thousand years, but I don't know how long it will take to get such an opportunity next time.

And although Miss Luo Quan gradually became helpless because of the group wipe,

she didn't seem too irritable. After all, everyone still made progress, and the remaining health of the boss each time they wiped was less than before.

After trying four times in a row, the first boss of the *Molten Core* dungeon was finally defeated.

"Awesome, everyone. It passed so quickly. The first-kill team died more than ten times before passing." Miss Luo Quan looked at the camera and smiled with relief.

The chat started complaining directly:

"People are playing Epic difficulty. You've been fighting the first boss of this Normal difficulty for so long. What about the ones behind?"

"I was so anxious watching it; I wouldn't be so flustered even if I fought with one hand."

"The commander's operation and command are both correct, belonging to a high-level player, but the team members are really lagging."

"Professional players are not good either. Why bring so many Shamans and Warlocks? Isn't it better to bring a few more Mages and Rogues?"

"Don't engage in professional discrimination; Miss Luo Quan emphasized it."

"Miss Luo Quan added a sentence later: Being handsome is a lifelong thing, being weak or not is a version thing."

"Understood, sewer professions will continue to be weak for a version."

………………

The chat was complaining, and many fans who pitted the team also took the initiative to quit the team.

It could be heard that Miss Luo Quan was already a bit tired from commanding. The second boss was more difficult, and if they stayed, they would probably fight even worse.

In order not to embarrass Miss Luo Quan, they quit the team.

"That's fine, everyone can go to the random difficulty dungeon to practice more, and have a chance to fight again in the future." Miss Luo Quan didn't keep them, just said a word to save their face.

Six people left this time. Miss Luo Quan continued to open the group application. This time, she kept a few eyes when choosing people, trying to choose fans with relatively high equipment levels.

After getting strong reinforcements, the 2nd boss started fighting immediately.

This battle was much simpler than before, and it was successfully killed after only one group wipe.

Next, it was the exciting moment.

The 2nd and 3rd bosses of the *Molten Core* dungeon will drop a production component for an orange weapon respectively.

Two components combined into one can open the production task of "Thunderfury."

In the closed beta, a total of only ten players made this weapon, two of which were obtained through the random and normal difficulty first-kill mechanism, which shows how low the explosion rate is.

After the public beta, *World of Warcraft* has four servers, namely the national server and Asian server operated by Tencent, and the US server and European server operated by Microsoft.

Four major servers, each with four difficulties, have all been taken for first kills.

And except for these sixteen, millions of players around the world have not yet gathered twenty production weapon task props.

The cool-to-burst special effects of Thunderfury can be said to have attracted quite a lot of players to join the pit.

And the ridiculously low explosion rate has also raised the price of this weapon to a quite terrifying status.

Now in the *World of Warcraft* player forum, there are tycoons offering 100,000 for one, and the price changes every day, only rising and not falling.

Looking at this posture, it is not impossible to rise to 300,000.

So many *World of Warcraft* players are also joking, saying that don't look at this game as a prepaid card system. After buying time, there is no numerical krypton gold content.

But if you really spend money, it is more exaggerated than many krypton gold mobile games.

However, the current heavy krypton content is all linked to appearance.

Thunderfury as an orange weapon, although the values and skills are the graduation weapons of many professions, it has not reached the point of "one knife 9999," so as to affect the game balance.

However, this one-handed sword with flashing thunder is really handsome.

Tycoons play games, don't they just want to enjoy the feeling of being looked up to and envied by ordinary players?

Thunderfury has the ability to bring such satisfaction, and this is more difficult than the satisfaction obtained by just charging money.

Because there are many tycoons who offer 100,000, but not a single one has really bought it.

It's not that the players don't want to sell, it's mainly because it's really hard to produce.

However, the fans guarding Miss Luo Quan's livestream room were honored to witness how this human koi fish exerted her power.

"I have a premonition that I'm going to produce goods this time." Miss Luo Quan blew a breath at her hand first, then clicked on the boss's corpse.

A dazzling essence light flashed, and an orange prop appeared in her pickup column, which was exactly one of the two task props for making Thunderfury.

Seeing this, the chat exploded directly:

"Damn, it really came out!"

"The Conqueror's luck is awesome."

"As expected of you, Miss Luo Quan."

"I'll frame your photo and hang it on the wall in the future, three sticks of incense every day, and change the offerings every week!"

………………

Miss Luo Quan, who produced the goods, smiled from ear to ear: "What's the matter, it seems that my luck for the day has been delayed. Originally, I was quite worried that I had used up my luck because I was too European before."

Saying that, she led the team members to the 3rd boss.

After wiping the group three times, Miss Luo Quan struggled to kill this boss.

Under everyone's gaze, she blew a breath at her right hand again.

"Next, it's the moment to witness the miracle!"

After speaking, she clicked the mouse with her right hand, followed by a golden light.

"This is simply absurd!"

"Is there really such a thing?"

"This is unscientific; I don't accept it!"

"Is Miss Luo Quan really the body of the Goddess of Luck?"

"It's the first time to fight the dungeon and it's directly complete. Who believes this when it's said out?"

…………

If the fans could barely accept it when the first task prop came out.

But when Miss Luo Quan produced the second task prop, the fans were collectively broken.

No one could have imagined that Miss Luo Quan could be so European. This can no longer be described as good luck; this is completely the explosion rate at the level of changing data in the background.

*World of Warcraft* has seven or eight million players worldwide. Not to mention one million who have fought the dungeon, thirty or forty thousand must have.

But 99.9% have not produced task props.

And producing all at once, there has never been one before, and it is probably impossible to have one again in the future.

"Statement in advance, my account has not changed any data. It's just an ordinary account. Although I am the boss, I don't have to change the game data for myself."

Miss Luo Quan saw that the words of many fans in the chat started to go wrong, so she made an explanation.

But in the eyes of the fans who had lost their minds, isn't this "covering up" and "there are no 300 taels of silver here"?

Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Miss Luo Quan was too lazy to explain and continued to lead the team to fight the next boss.

Although the group was disbanded directly because too many people died when fighting the 5th boss, Miss Luo Quan went off the livestream.

But the storm caused by the two oranges in a row had just begun.

First of all, it was Zhihu. The third on the popularity list was "How to evaluate Miss Luo Quan's production of Thunderfury task props in one dungeon?"

Facing such a seemingly absurd question, Zhihu users also expressed their opinions:

"Absolute dark box operation! It's impossible for a person to be so European."

"Why did you do it as soon as you came, when dozens or hundreds of millions of people around the world couldn't do it?"

"Wait, it seems that Miss Luo Quan's good luck has been shown many times."

"The last time I heard she was a human koi fish was iG winning the S8 championship, and the time before that was China football being assigned to the weakest group."

"It seems that God will also favor people who look beautiful. I just don't know if she will become the God of Gamblers of the new century if she goes to play cards with this luck?"

This is an answer that seems to be questioning but is actually helping Miss Luo Quan explain, directly listing Miss Luo Quan's past achievements.

Whether a person is lucky or not can be seen from these achievements.

And Miss Luo Quan's resume is the most powerful evidence.

It's just that gambling is illegal in China, and Miss Luo Quan didn't take out the matter of defeating two professional card players on the boat.

Otherwise, I guess no one would question her now.

Although this highlighted answer was defending Miss Luo Quan, most people still felt there was a problem.

Because this simply does not conform to the laws of science.

According to the drop rate of the Thunder Sword given by the official, it should be 0.01%, which is one in 10,000.

And to produce two in a row, that is the square of one in 10,000.

This is not one in 10,000, it is directly one in 100 million.

From a probability standpoint, this is an event that is fundamentally impossible to occur; it is even harder than winning a five-million-dollar lottery.

The key is that there is no way to prove it, so many passersby and players feel that there must be something tricky in it.

The next day, Blizzard Studio, under pressure, specifically issued a Weibo, warning players around the world that they could not do things that hurt players for the sake of the boss.

The probability is placed there. Even if one in 100 million is low, the denominator is 1, not 0. Then the boss produced it, what can be done? Do you decide to take it back because your luck is too good and affects the game experience of most players?

That is definitely unreasonable, so don't blame it anymore.

And Miss Luo Quan at this time, in the livestream room, also appeared quite aggrieved.

It's not her fault that her luck is good. Moreover, her luck has always been so good, innate like her appearance, so she can't just not want it, right?

In order to prove her innocence, she directly took out a revolver.

"Today, in order to prove my innocence, I decided to use Russian roulette to verify my luck." Miss Luo Quan looked at the camera with a determined look.

"No need, no need."

"Where did you get the gun? Put it away quickly, don't hurt yourself."

"Hurt my ass, this gun shoots toilet plungers."

"Haha, if that's the case, then I dare to bet."

………………

"No, no, no, I didn't take this to prove my courage."

Miss Luo Quan saw that the fans were still joking, so she opened the magazine of the toy revolver.

There were six holes. Miss Luo Quan put bullets in five of them—no, it should be bullets.

She wiped her hand on the magazine, and it immediately spun.

Miss Luo Quan raised her head, didn't look, closed it directly, and aimed at her temple: "Next, I only have a one-in-six chance of winning. Whether I am a koi fish or not depends on this shot."

"Damn, why am I still a bit nervous?"

"Obviously it's a toy gun, but it makes it look like it's really gambling with life."

"However, if five bullets really fired empty shots, the luck is indeed quite good."

…………

Amidst the discussion in the chat, Miss Luo Quan pulled the trigger.

With a click, nothing happened. The magazine turned a circle, and nothing happened on her temple.

Then, she raised the gun and aimed at the table, and pulled the trigger again. This time, a bullet flew out directly and stuck tightly to the table.

"Everyone saw it, the gun is fine, and I didn't eat the bullet!"

Miss Luo Quan looked at the fans proudly: "Can this prove my luck?"

"No, once is not enough!"

"That's right, you have to come five or six times to have enough samples to be convincing!"

"Yes, maybe you are a blind cat hitting a dead mouse this time?"

…………

The fans were still unconvinced. Miss Luo Quan didn't say much, directly pulled the bullet from the table, put it into the magazine, and repeated the previous action.

The second shot, still nothing happened.

The third shot, still no bullet.

The fourth, the fifth.

It wasn't until the tenth time that the bullet finally shot out and stuck to her temple.

"Ouch, it hurts a little." Miss Luo Quan grinned and pulled the bullet from her head.

And at this time, the chat was completely different from before.

"Can anyone explain why this is?"

"Just three minutes ago, I still believed in science."

"Nine consecutive empty shots, you have a bigger life than a cat."

"If this isn't a koi fish, what is it? It is recommended to put it in a temple and worship it."

"Except for being absurd, I have nothing to say!"

Undoubtedly, the fans were completely convinced by Miss Luo Quan's performance of luck. ===== CHAPTER 684 =====
