Chapter 3 10081 Novice Village
Enter the game
"Six-tube Bodhisattva, welcome to the New World 10081 Novice Village."
Damn, there are already more than 10,000 newbie villages? There are so many people on the first day of the game, it's really popular. According to the official website of New World, the maximum number of people in each newbie village is 1,000. If there are more than 1,000 people, the next newbie village will be automatically opened. Now there are more than 10,000 people.
That is to say, within a few minutes of the start, more than 10 million people had entered the game. Zhang Shan's first thought was that this game was really attractive, and his second thought was that there were so many people who didn't have to go to work. If he was still at work, he would definitely not have time to play now, after all, 8 o'clock in the morning was the right time to go to work.
The novice village is very simple and is completely incomparable to the giant city in the beginning of the CG animation. Looking around, there are only three or four buildings and not many NPCs, just a few cats and dogs. However, as players arrive one after another, crowds of people soon surge in.
"This new world is not good. The Novice Village can't be made prettier."
"I don't care whether she's pretty or not. I just want to know if there are any novice missions and where to pick them up. If you know, please let me know."
"squeak"
"Go find the village chief. He has a mission, but don't expect too much. It's hard to believe."
"What a weird task! The reward is one copper coin for each monster."
Listening to the calls coming from his ears and thinking of the task system in the new world, Zhang Shan couldn't help but shake his head.
The missions in New World are very different from those in other games, with one word highlighting: “few”.
According to the official website, in the New World, quests can only be triggered if conditions are met and quest items are obtained . Moreover, the number of quest items is very small, and each quest item is very precious. It is impossible to accept quests by getting acquainted with NPCs. Even the official website says that there are few quests, so don't think too much about it. Just check out the novice quests first.
Zhang Shan took small steps and started running at an impressive speed. It was said that agile professions would move quickly, but this was just like an old man taking a walk.
Arriving at the only building in the Novice Village that looked solid, Zhang Shan found the village chief with a question mark on his head, which meant there was a mission to be triggered. There were also dozens of players surrounding the village chief.
Fortunately, the game is set up so that NPCs can talk to many people at the same time, otherwise it would take who knows how long to wait if everyone came to take on the novice mission.
Zhang Shan went up to the village chief and started a conversation with him: "Hello, village chief."
"Oh, young man, I see you have a very special talent. I have a mission to save world peace for you. You must accept it."
Zhang Shan was confused after hearing this. What did this mean? At this time, he saw the taskbar flashing.
Opening the taskbar, Zhang Shan saw the task content.
Mission: Destroy Demons (Permanent)
Destroy Demons: Demons descend and wreak havoc on the world under the leadership of the demon god, killing all living beings. The Emperor Zhou, who is in the Eastern Capital, issues a decree to destroy demons, calling on all the wise men in the world to take up arms and destroy the demons. Each demon destroyed will be rewarded with a copper coin.
After Zhang Shan accepted the mission, his personal demon-killing mission was displayed.
Mission: Destroy Demons
Number of completed: 0
Rewards available: 0
Killing a monster for one copper coin may be attractive at the beginning, but after the player level goes up, no one will pay attention to it anymore. At most, when you are out of money, you can withdraw the reward to meet emergencies.
After receiving the task, Zhang Shan ran out of the village while checking the novice equipment given by the system.
Novice Gun: Physical attack power 1-5
Novice Cloth: Defense 1
And then it was gone, a weapon, a piece of clothing.
View properties:
Role: Six-tube Bodhisattva
Occupation: Hunter
Level: 1
Health: 100
Mana: 50
Physical attack power: 11-15
Magic attack power: 5-5
Strength: 5
Agility: 10
Intelligence: 5
Defense: 2
Lucky 9 (randomly generated in the range of 1-10, luck is a hidden attribute and never changes)
Talent: Passive King (Every time you kill a monster, there is a chance to randomly gain a passive skill from the monster, with a probability of one in a million).
Open the skills section to view the novice skills given by the system.
Skill 1, Headshot (Passive), Level, Level 1. Each attack of the hunter has a chance to trigger the headshot effect, causing an additional 50 points of damage and stunning for 0.05 seconds, with a triggering probability of 0.5%.
Oh my god, the first skill is actually a passive one, which means I can only use basic attacks to get around.
But this skill is not bad, with an extra 50 damage, which is worth using. At least in the early stage, it is very powerful. Once the headshot effect is triggered, it is equivalent to three or four more attacks. And there is also a stun effect, although it is only 0.05 seconds, which seems useless, but the stun can at least make the target pause, and it should be used to interrupt skills in the later stage. A very good passive skill.
The only bad thing is that it is too much of a test of luck. With a 0.5% chance, even with the skill level added in, the chance should not be too high.
When passing by the grocery store at the entrance of the village, Zhang Shan stopped and opened the package.
The 20-grid package only contains two items: 1,000 ordinary bullets, a bottle of small red medicine, and 100 copper coins.
Normal bullets: attack power 0-1, small life potion: restore 50 health points after use.
Just one bottle of red potion, that's too cheap, but the bullets are OK, there are 1,000 rounds, with the hunter's initial attack speed, 2 seconds attack interval, a maximum of 30 attacks a minute, if continuous attack, close to 2,000 attacks an hour. That is to prepare 2,000 rounds of bullets an hour, should add some more bullets, Zhang Shan thought and walked towards the grocery store.
"Hello, young hunter, what can I buy?"
"Boss, how much are the bullets?"
"There are two kinds of bullets. Which one do you want?"
Zhang Shan looked at the inventory of the grocery store. Ordinary bullets cost 100 copper coins for 1,000 rounds, and high-quality bullets cost 1 gold coin for 1,000 rounds.
Damn, one gold coin? Are you kidding me, who has gold coins at this time? One gold coin is equal to 100 silver coins, 10,000 copper coins. There is no market for this.
However, the properties of this excellent bullet are amazing, with an attack power of 50-100. In other words, if Zhang Shan is equipped with excellent bullets, wouldn't he be able to kill one monster with one shot during his novice period?
Of course, it's just a thought. Now everyone has only 100 copper coins. All the copper coins of 100 people are combined to make one gold coin. There are only 1,000 people in the entire novice village. Who can collect that much?
Who said that hunters are a profession with low consumption? The consumption of bullets is no less than that of a mage's potion. It seems that he has to learn a profession to make bullets in the future, otherwise, his dream of making money in the new world will be shattered.
Buy 1,000 ordinary bullets and spend all the copper coins.
Running out of the village, Zhang Shan saw players killing chickens in groups of two or three. Since each novice village only had a maximum of 1,000 players and the map was large enough, it didn't seem too crowded to kill monsters, at least there was no need to fight over the monsters.
Zhang Shan found a deserted place, looked at a chicken, and checked its attributes.
Demonized Chicken: HP 100, Attack 10, Skill Peck: When the Demonized Chicken is angry, it will peck, causing double damage.
Zhang Shan couldn't help but have a headache. The chicken's attributes were similar to his, which meant that after defeating a monster, he had to sit down and rest to recover. If he was unlucky, the chicken might use one or two more skills, which might be a bit dangerous.
No need to think about it, just start fighting. He picked up the novice rifle, aimed at the demonized chicken and shot it. -11, -12, -11. When the chicken came in front of Zhang Shan, he had already fired three shots. Fortunately, the chicken moved very slowly. It shouldn't be difficult to deal with.
After a few more A attacks, the enchanted chicken fell to the ground. Experience +5. Ding ding, two copper coins fell directly into the bag. The new world has this setting, and it will be automatically picked up. The items fell directly into the bag.
At this time, Zhang Shan only had about 30 points of health left. He couldn't kill two people in a row, so he meditated to recover his health.
I looked at the experience bar. It takes 500 experience points to upgrade from level 1 to level 2, which means I have to kill 100 demonized chickens. Killing monsters for half a minute and meditating for one minute is a bit slow.
When Zhang Shan sat down to recover, a berserker with an axe in hand came over. Zhang Shan looked at his character name, "Thousand Miles Alone". Could this be the one on the forum who told others not to steal his name?
"Brother, let's form a team. It's easier to play together."
"Okay, you start the group."
"OK, the distribution method is to distribute money equally and items randomly. Is this okay?" Qianlizoudanqi asked Zhang Shan how to distribute the items in the team.
Since items are dropped directly into the bag, you need to set the distribution method when forming a team, otherwise if all the items fall to one person, the other will be left out. As for experience, it is distributed according to the level ratio, and it is distributed equally if the level is the same.
"Okay, let's start the group." Zhang Shan replied.
Personal system: You have joined a team of Thousand Miles Alone. The team's income is distributed equally in money and randomly in items.
"Let's two people attack the same monster at the same time. I'll attack first, and then we can attack together when the monster comes to our side." Zhang Shan said.
OK
After his health was restored, Zhang Shan aimed at a chicken in the distance and shot it. When the monster reached him, they swiped it twice together and knocked it down. The two of them were basically unharmed, but Zhang Shan was hit by the chicken and lost 18 points of health.
Continue to the next demonized chicken.
"Dude, it seems like your damage is much higher than mine. How much attack does the axe add?"
Zhang Shan finished asking
Qianlizoudanqi will reveal the properties of the novice axe.
Novice Axe: Physical Attack 3-8
The attribute is three points higher than the novice musket in his hand. For a level 1 novice, three points is one third, no wonder the damage of Qianlizoudanqi is much higher than his.
"Damn, your axe is much more powerful than my musket." Zhang Shan couldn't help but envy.
"Three more attacks are useless. The musket is long-range and much safer than the warrior. What are your hunter's novice skills? I didn't see you use any skills just now." Qianlizoudanqi asked curiously. At the beginning of the game, everyone basically didn't know the novice skills of other professions.
"Passive skill, headshot, the chance is too small, it's hard to trigger."
After saying that, Zhang Shan demonstrated his headshot skills.
"This headshot is a magical skill. It is very useful in the later stages. It is not like our warriors' Falling Leaf Slash, which can only be used in the novice stage and is almost the same as Peace A in the later stages."
He demonstrated his skills by riding alone for thousands of miles.
Falling Leaf Slash: The warrior slashes at the target with a weapon, increasing damage by 10. Cooldown time 10 seconds, magic cost 5 points.
There is no special effect, only pure skill damage, which is not much, but it is already good as a novice skill. Adding 10 damage is almost enough for a normal attack. It should be a general skill for warriors. Berserkers, guardian warriors and magic swordsmen are probably all this novice skill.
There are many skills in the new world that can be learned by different professions, and there are even skills that are common to all professions.
The two chatted while killing monsters.
"Are you the one who posted spam in the forum announcement?"
"Haha, you've also read the forum. That wasn't me. I also thought this character name was good and impressive, but I registered it first. I wonder if that guy will be angry."
As they were talking, the two of them killed more than ten monsters together, and suddenly a white light fell into Zhang Shan's package.
"Well, it seems that an item has appeared."
Qianlizoudanqi : "Quickly take a look at what equipment it is and whether we can use it."
Zhang Shan opened the package and found an extra piece of clothing in it.
Crude Iron Armor (white): Defense +5, equipment level one, durability 5-5, equipment category, plate armor.
He can't use it, plate armor equipment can only be worn by warriors.
"It's your equipment and clothes. Here you go."
After saying that, Zhang Shan directly clicked on the transaction and traded the crude iron armor to Qianlizoudanqi.
"Haha, now I can fight monsters. After putting on this outfit, I have 7 points of defense, which can completely withstand the damage of the chicken. Thank you, brother. I will give you your equipment next time."
"It's okay, it's just a piece of white clothing, not worth a few copper coins."
Of course, Zhang Shan was just talking. Now everyone was wearing novice equipment, which was pitifully weak. If Zhang Shan shouted in the novice village, someone would definitely be willing to pay for it. As for the junk equipment, it also depends on the time. It had only been ten minutes since the server was opened, and any equipment was in great demand.
